RETUS stock firmware?

Does anyone have the stock fw for retus devices? (I unwisely neglected to back it up before modifying /system. Thought I had. Oops.) Thanks.

hit thumbs up if i helped you

Thanks. I did see that, and the other thread, but I thought it was a different region's FW.
Is /system the same across regions and just /oem different? What makes a retus phone different from a retin/reteu one; where does that setting live?

I recovered my RETUS XT1687 with the rom that was labeled -35 (as I remember mine came with -35, it's an Amazon non subsidized model)
there are definitely differences between RETIN/RETEU and RETUS mainly the replacement of NFC with a compass but I have seen no issues with the rom I used(ie: TMUS wifi calling works, VoLTE works, camera works, etc)...I wonder if there's scripts that install the proper blobs?

Interesting. Is your "software channel" still showing up as retus?

Yep

Did you use POTTER_NPN25.137-35 or POTTER_AMZ_NPN25.137-35 ?? (AMZ is presumably the Amazon in-store app version?)

I don't think I've seen a AMZ image but i used the former...I dunno what would happen if I installed the AMZ one on my phone as mine isn't an AMZ model

Moto Firmware
I did the same thing with my moto g6 xt1925-6 variant. I couldn't get factory firmware from Motorola but I did come across this site hosting a bunch of factory images. Hope it helps.

[Q] MOTO X FORCE Nougat 7.0/7.1.1 Delay

Hi everyone, this is just a simple question:
How many of you think about the delay of the N update is because MAYBE Motonovo are updating to 7.1.1 intead 7.0?
'cause has been pass a week (maybe 2) and we don't have news about the update. My MXF is from iusacel and i don't receive (yet) the upgrade, this forum (or others) don't have even the Update.zip to flash 7.0.
Greetings

If this is true:
https://www.oficinadanet.com.br/post/19231-android-nougat-chega-para-moto-x-force-no-brasil
I would say 2-4 weeks and I think we'll get only 7.0
no 7.1.1 for us - which is sad, because even Moto X Play gets 7.1.1 ... hmmm

Today I received the 7.0 on my unlocked Moto X Force (AT&T México) and like @capedukewuhaha said, it's sadly the end of the line for this device (at least officially, of course).

Hi guys, does anyone have an english version of all this? Could understand very little and I guess there was a lot going on!

Ilia, dear Friend, could you please confirm that you can simply roll back to 6.0 by restoring your backup frow TWRP? i'm asking because of this part of flashing modem during Nougat installation

I did not understand. Do you want to restore the backup 6.0 in order to test the modem operation?

I just want to know if in order to restore 6.0 I have to only restore my backup via TWRP or would I have to also flash proprer modem afterwards?

I have x force xt1580 reteu what i have to so?

Firmwares with the ending 92-x are for India and Brazil, ending on 93-x for Europe, US and Asia Pacific.
For Europe/US the latest firmware is 93-10 (April security patch).
The latest one I found uploaded is 93-4. The same for India, 92-4 is uploaded.

Maybe that's why my device got screwed? Because I flashed EU firmware 93-4 on an Indian Variant? I think NOT

A lot of people did. Maybe that's causing problems, I only know that you can't receive OTA's anymore.
The devices should work as expected but what happens if you flash a custom ROM and go back to stock (maybe another build?)I don't know but it's possible that all this voLTE and IMEI losing stuff is related to it.

Meanwhile, I am figuring out a way to hardbrick this device and use blankflash to bypass the bootloader.

That's what happens when there's multiple variants of the same phone and no one properly labels the firmware or provides specifications. I've done it, got back to stock with a locked bootloader and recovered IMEI. OTA updates installed with no issues but left with stuck with IMEI 0 again. Anyone in this situation who failed to make an initial backup with EFS or lost that backup is screwed. At this point you're best option is to stick with a stable Oreo ROM. We're getting better support from devs while Lenovo leaves us in the dark.

... 20e, 20f etc are all the same update for thinq features, the differences are just how new the security patch is in some of them depending on when they were released...

to you find the KDZ of LG Bridge you need to have hidden folders checked on folder's options, and then navigate to:
C:\Users\(your main username)\AppData\Local\LG Electronics\LG Bridge\SWUpgrade\Image\B2C_Client
but the kdz file only be there wile updating the phone, after that the file is deleted from PC. So if you want to share or save the kdz you need to connect the phone, let the LG Bridge detect the phone and click on "error recovery" (to get the same kdz you already update, otherwise the LG Bridge will say your phone is up to date) let them download until 40/50% and then disconnect the phone, the kdz should download anyway and when finished LG Bridge will say to connect the phone, at that time you just go to that directory and copy the kdz and past it anywhere you want.

what is the changelog??

It's not "OPEN_EU" in the file name so the ROM might not be completely bloatware-free.

thank you my friend!

´Just to warn people this shared file is not the OPEN_EU that most people are waiting for, its EEO (i dont know what this means whatsoever) but, wait till tomorrow late or later on monday we will get the v20f with the september security patch, is the only change we will get on this.
Better than nothing, i see LG very active in provide us security patches, at least the last 4 months, since almost Oreo came for this device.

It's a UK Carrier branded ROM for EE (Everything Everywhere), so yes, not an Open Eu ROM.

What'd you use to root 107-75? I updated to it as soon as I received the phone, but didn't check if there was a root available prior and I couldn't find an updated stock ROM to patch the boot.img. No luck going to an earlier version, but maybe I was doing something wrong.
Thanks!
