I would like to Relock the Bootloader of My Moto G4 XT1622. I did not find any specific instructions to do this on the XT1622 just for other Moto G4 models and I was not successful. Any suggestion? Has anyone done this on XT1622. Thank you
Same question here, can't find it anywhere.
When i do fastboot oem lock it says that i need a signed boot.img
Flashed the original but still not working. Anyone?
A month ago my Moto g5 plus died trying to fix a Moto Z Play from a friend. I had mistakenly connected my cell phone thinking it was my friend's and I ended up flashing mine by mistake. Since then my Potter died! I have tried everything to be able to relive it but I can not find the way. I have downloaded all the official Stock Roms and none has been able to raise my phone again.
The result after the flash was that the original bootlader that I had changed completely! Now I have the data of a Moto Z Play on my Moto G5 Plus.
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)
BL: C1.07 (sha-9d7f987, 2017-04-01 13:44:07).
Is there any way to relive it again? The Model is Moto G5 Plus Potter XT1680 32GB P3B. Every day I try to do something new but I can not find the way anymore ....

I think you need to use the blankflash from albus. If you flashed Z Play's firmware then you changed the bootloader of your G5 Plus to Z Play's. Have you tried the albus blankflash? Please report after trying.

I can not download the albus blankflash from the page because it does not exist. I got a BlankFlash from Moto Z Play from another side but when I run the .bat it remains on waiting device.
In device manager I am listed as "Fastboot Potter S", after installing the driver, it is in ADB Interface. But from there I can not execute Blankflash.
Another solution?
This is the flash file that no longer appears on the page but I can not find it on the other hand the same link
cloud vache-android com/Moto/albus/blankflash/
Try downloading blankflash from here...
https://androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=213037
Is your ADB and Fastboot working correctly on PC?
Download the flash blank but it still does not work. The ADB and Fastboot works correctly but it does not let me run the blank flash. Any other idea?
If I try to load a rom from Fastboot, it works. But if I try to do blank flash with the qbot.exe command from the .bat it does not work.
It is always on <waiting device>

Not really sure why I'm tagged here... This isn't my area of expertise at all.
Sorry, but I have no incite here.

Hmm, is your bootloader unlocked? In the G5 plus unbrick guide, those users who managed to recover their device after using the albus bootloader and the addison2potter GPT/bootloader were only able to use stock TWRP flashables (though you didn't hard brick, flashing the Z play bootloader is a similar result). I'm not sure if flashing a stock ROM via fastboot is an option, due to the different bootloader. There are reports that the stock ROM may be flashable if you omit the GPT and bootloader, however you'd need an unlocked bootloader and also you'd have to forget about using OTA updates at all. Else, you'd likely actually hard brick this time with an OTA update.
Thus, if you can, stock TWRP flashables or a custom ROM are likely your best options.
Just checking if you've tried these:
- Fastboot to boot a TWRP image (i.e. fastboot boot twrp.img, where twrp.img is a TWRP file)
- Fastboot to flash just a bootloader from the right device
This isn't really my area of expertise either. I usually fix things after having broken them myself, but I don't want to try this
I tried to flash the stock firmware through mfastboot, but it keeps failing. I assume it's because my bootloader isn't unlocked. I tried to unlock it through Motorola's website but it just told me that my device couldn't be unlocked. I need to flash this recovery and I don't know what to do!!! Someone please help me!!!
Hi all,
I have a Moto G5 Plus (dual sim, European version) that was on stock Android 8. I wanted to revive this old phone and use it for experimenting.
I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP recovery and then installed the unofficial Lineage OS 17.1 (here from xda: [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][10.0][POTTER] LineageOS 17.1).
I then proceeded to get root installed using no-verity and magisk.
I now have a boot loop that loads Lineage but then restarts into TWRP recovery.
It's been a really long time since I fooled around with bootloaders, recoveries and alternative roms (been using a Samsung S8 for several years now on stock rom).
So I am unsure how to proceed. What do you recommend that I do?
I would like to have a rooted Android 10 on the Moto G5 Plus, preferably without a bootloop
Update 1:
Using this thread I have been able to revert to stock Android 8.1 ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
But I would be interested to know which Android 10 ROM would be recommended for the Moto G5 Plus?

Problem; the procedure you followed is for a Moto G, and not a G5 Plus. If you used Moto G firmware on your Moto G5+, you may have induced more problems.
Moto g5+ firmwares are located at https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/ Proper firmware for the Moto G5+ depends on your model and what country you are operating in.
potter - Moto G5 Plus = firmware
XT1680(LATAM/Argentina/Chile,2GB) {LATAM; Latin America}
XT1681(LATAM/Colombia/Mexico,2GB)
XT1683(Brazil,DS,DTV,2GB)
XT1684(Europe,3GB)
XT1685(Australia/NewZealand/Europe,3GB)
XT1686(India,3/4GB)
XT1687(USA,2GB/4GB)
{AMX, America Movil Mexico}{owns Claro}
{ATTMX; AT&T Mexico}
{AMZ; Amazon)
{RETAPAC; Retail Pacific; Australia, New Zealand}
{RETAR; Retail Argentina}
{RETBR; Retail Brazil}
{RETEU; Retail European Union)
{RETGB; Retail Great Britian}
{RETIN; Retail India}
{RETLA; Retail Latin America}
{RETMX; Retail Mexico}
{RETUS; Retail Unitied States}
{TEF, Telefonica S A.}
{TEFBR; Telefonica Brazil}
{TEFCO; Telefonica Columbia}
{TEFES; Telefonica European Sector}
{TEFMX; Telefonica Mexico}
Since your in Europe, your firmware group is probally RETEU, RETGB, or TEFES. You need to locate your model number of the phone, maybe a XT1684 or XT1685 and find the model number under the proper directory of firmware. I would download the latest, usually has 8.1.0_OPS28.85-17-6-2 in the firmware name and the lastest date. Extract the software and fastboot it.
For the 8.10_OPS28.85-17-6-2 firmwares the fastboot commands are:
Fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
Fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
Fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
Fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
Fastboot flash logo logo.bin
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
Fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
Fastboot flash oem oem.img
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot erase userdata
Fastboot erase DDR
Fastboot reboot
Again, this may not work because if the Moto G firmware you flashed on to the Moto G5+.....
Also, did LineageOS work on the phone before flashing Magisk and/or no-verity ?
Hi, thank you for your help.
Yes Lineage OS did work. Was it Magisk or no-verity that caused the bootloop?
So, I went to the proper stock ROM, and then I installed the Pixel Experience: https://download.pixelexperience.org/potter - so far nice and stable.
What is the commended/cleanest/safest way to get root?

Sorry to not reply earlier - was tied up with election recounts -----
Do not know what caused the boot loop. The proper way to install is to install LineagrOS first, boot LineageOS and make sure it comes up, Then go back to recovery/TWRP and install Magisk and the reboot to system and check LineageOS to make sure it came up. Then look in your apps and see if you have the Magisk icon. On the no-verity, I had a couple that did not work, I was turned on to Disable_Dm-Verity_ForcedEncrypt_02.04.2019.zip at
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603877244 (by WolfCity - thanks)
which worked for me. Use the procedure at paragraph 13 (my procedure that I listed
a PDF, its at http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=...86655137330218 ) to install the program to decrypt the file system. Then reboot the phone and verify the phone is un-encrypted (it will say "Encrypt Phone" instead of Phone Encrypted). Then you will have to reboot back to recovery and reinstall Magisk again (its because when the file system was decrypted the memory was formatted/overwrited). Then boot back to system and verify Magisk is in your icons again. If you have Magisk, you should have root. You can verify root by either programs that check it root or open a terminal window and type in SU and Magisk will pop up a window asking if you want to give the program root access.
Hope that helped.
