SOLVED: Flashed TruPureXMM rom in Indian dualsim XT1572 and now No sim detection

I was on indian_mm_deodexed_rooted then flashed TruPureXMM as one of my friends suggested trying it out as it is smooth etc.
I didn't knew that it is Pure single sim version and after flashing no network and then i checked only single sim showed :crying: then i again formated and flashed back indian_mm_deodexed_rooted and modem_indian_mm_fixed but this time it shows two sims with no network atall and Emergency calls on both... In settings SIM cards its SIM 1 emty and SIM 2 empty :crying::crying: tried flashing with indian modem again and also tried lp modem but nothing is working, please help :crying::crying:
Both IMEI Unknown status.
I didn't even took back of my stock as i didn't knew about it before
Bootloader is unlocked and TWRP is installed.
Note: My x style came with lollipop and then i did official update with marshmallow and then i wanted to root so flashed.
Please help me get back dual sim with network if possible
EDIT: Solved the issue now and here is the solution:
Download Stockrom from this link according to your exact model and follow the commands exactly:
[Firmware] Moto X Style/Pure Stock Software by lAndroXl
I just ignored command fastboot oem lock begin as told by @dj_ooms so boot loader is still unlocked and also i have installed TWRP and rooted by flashing SuperSu.
Also very important thing is take nandroid backup after installing TWRP i.e backup your stock rom by selecting backup in TWRP... please also take backup your EFS partition also, thanks
@dj_ooms @Unicornzz and @bw03
:angel: Thank you guys for your valuable replies and thanks to lAndroXl uploader and thread... really helped :angel:

Use the ROM from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/rom-indian-marshmallow-variants-t3253684
Edit: you may get the modem working with just flashing the modem zip but I'm not sure as I don't have a dual sim phone to try. You can try it. If that doesn't work, then flash the ROM.

Thanks for the reply.
I already did flashed the modem zip but it didn't worked and also flashed to indian_mm_deodexed_rooted.zip with indian mm but still my imei is unknown.
Any other way or any other rom which i can try??

Did you do a dirty or clean flash? I would use twrp to wipe everything but external sd card, then flash ROM and modern.

I used twrp and wiped cache data and also system and then flashed ROM and modem but still it is not working
didn't flashed internal rom as it had ROM but wiped everything else but still no luck.

Perhaps do a clean flash on a ROM from here? I don't know. Just throwing it out there.

I will try it out... downloading now and will let you know later when dl and flashing finishes and hope i get it working this time, fingers crossed.

If you check my modem thread i posted last night try the code at the bottom after you have flashed the India Dual sim modem you already have, it purges the cache's for modem/general cache
If your still struggling after that ill see what files i have stored away for modems, Im sure i have another dual sim modem other than the indian one..
Edit:
Packaging you afew flashable zip's now with Dualsim Modems for the XT1572

You may need to do the Indian LP modem from the first linked thread too.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...-eu-single-t3297051/post64888714#post64888714
I have posted up more DUAL Sim modems for you to try. Hope it helps and you get it sorted

Just one question to all : when i got moto x style in dec it was having Lollipop then i did marshmallow update and then flashed for rooting so now if i again flash to lP stock rom will it get bricked or work?? As i am not getting signals so i will try it later when nothing else works

Try both LP and MM one
I don't agree how you got shafted into this mess, ROM Makers should NEVER package Radio/Modem or Bootloader files in with a ROM ever.
When i release mine in the coming weeks it will be X175x with all the optional modem files or none at all.
Best of luck to you

Guys still no luck... nothing worked. I tried both DS modem but did not got sim detection.
I hope somehow who might have faced same issue and got solved will see and reply the thread and save me.
You guys tried to solve my problem... Thank you to both.

Stock ROMs
Have you tried the guide in this thread?:
[Firmware] Moto X Style/Pure Stock Software
You will need a computer and to follow the guide exactly and will lose all data off your internal storage so back up your sdcard to external storage or computer beforehand. Flashing this solved my problems when I had them. Just make sure you back up things before you start. The ROMs are completely stock so you will need to root and install a custom recovery again once done.
Hope this helps.

The bootloader will stay unlocked this way meaning you can flash TWRP after. I would flash as above first and once the phone is booted and confirmed to be working, I would then flash TWRP and other mods. On a note, I have an EU XT1572 so I only had 9 parts on the system flash part (upto system.img_sparsechunk.8). The dual sim version may have 10 or more parts. Check how many parts you have beforehand and make sure you flash all bits.
Hope this helps.

After flashing phone changed from G4 Plus to G4

I've flashed a stock firmware everyone else flashed. But after flashing, my phone's fingerprint and networks are not working.
In the settings, the baseband is also not "ATHENE_INDIA_DSDS_CUST". It's "DFLT_FSG".
Please help me.

You flashed the wrong one obviously. Which file did u flash?

Tried flashing it. No success. Also the fiingerprint reader is also missing.

Even i have the same issue...FP sensor is not recognised during initial setup and also the setting is missing in the settings menu.
Flash the Indian modems doesn't work. Dailing *#06# shows only one IMEI number.Sim card is detected but always stays on No service mode....attempting to search for networks from setting results in an error.Service centre didn't accept my phone saying theres only one IMEI number and the bootloader is unlocked.Any help would be appreciated as we have no where to go.

Glad that someone acknowledge the issue. There is one more guy here at xda roaming with the same problem. I've tried almost every method possible. Still no luck. But for luck, my service center guy offered a free board replacement for the problem. If xda guys didn help, I would send it for replacement. Mine is also bootloader unlocked and software status modified, but he is okey to offer a replacement.

Which city ?I think you should go for the replacement and then update it via OTA when you get a notification.

Any Solutions Yet ?
Has anyone found any solutions yet !?
It is surely a Software issue
Service Center people are asking Rs.6500/- to replace the motherboard
Can't even relock the bootloader as i flashed the Nougat OTA and thus i can't downgrade the bootloader and lock it either !!
Please Help !

A few things:
1) As long as you are fully updated to the latest stock ROM, OTA updates should not be a problem. OTA updates are usually a problem if you have downgraded your device (like in your case downgrading to Dec 2016 firmware) or not having the full stock ROM, including the bootloader of the same patch level, (i.e. having mixed firmware) flashed to your device. If you really want to, you can use the latest stock ROM to re-lock your bootloader, and providing it's the correct stock ROM for your region/device, you should receive and be able to flash OTA updates without problem (as a locked bootloader will enforce you having firmware matching the bootloader update level).
2)I'm not sure how a minimal ADB/fastboot image is 900+ MB. Unless that mediafire link is pointing to the Android SDK which includes the ADB and fastboot programs, the minimal ADB/fastboot is about 1 MB https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
3)Unfortunately, repairing IMEI and loss of fingerprint sensor is not as straightforward as flashing the stock ROM. You may require the hw, fsg and modem images.

Well
1. if you have unlocked bootloader, you can not re-lock. i think this is the brick's reason. i had installed yes old bootloader file with december 2016 security patch, then came ota update to april 2018 security patch and phone has bricked, as from marshmallow to nougat update while bootloader was unlocked. but i do not know reason exactly, because first time i did stock marshmallow 6.0 rom, then came ota update everything works fine new security patch of 6.0, after that came nougat ota update and phone was bricked
2. yes there is difference between .rar and folder. just extract it
3. if it is hardware issue, rom can not change anything yes

1)You can re-lock your device with the April 2018 stock firmware https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138. You need a stock firmware image as new or newer than your bootloader - we've seen many examples on this stock ROM thread of users re-locking their bootloaders.
The likely reason that you hard bricked is that you did not actually downgrade your bootloader when you flashed the Marshmallow stock ROM. Hence, you still had the Nougat bootloader on your device, which got corrupted when you used the old MM to Nougat OTA.
To re-lock your device, you must use the newest appropriate firmware for your device. Do not flash old stock firmware (including MM) and do not mix your firmwares (do not flash old bootloader files with new firmware). Of course, re-locking your bootloader will not restore your warranty and the process will erase your device, so up to you.

If you have a look and read of the stock ROM initial post https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 in that guide you'll see flashing commands that should let you re-lock your bootloader.
Also, if you want to re-lock your bootloader, check that you have OEM unlocking enabled in Settings>Developer Options (the same toggle you turned on when you unlocked the bootloader in the first place).
So the summary is:
1)Turn on OEM unlocking in Settings>Developer Options.
2)Boot your device to bootloader
3)Fully flash the April 2018 stock ROM (all files must be from the April 2018 stock ROM, no exceptions) as per the flashing commands in the guide, including all the OEM lock commands. This should wipe your device, re-lock your bootloader and let you boot with stock files. Attempting to mix files will cause your lock to fail or your device to not boot, as the firmware you flashed is now being checked by your bootloader to verify it's all from the same firmware.

well i tried and did not work those run commands

Baseband: Not found/Unknown, imei 0... Let's find a definitive solution

XT 1806 here. Well, not long ago I posted about thinking I found a way... well... nothing. followed every single thread on hoy to restore basemand/imei to no avail.
So far what I know is that I was running fine, while trying to make cerberus a system app. The phone rebooted and bam. No more baseband.
Before that, I had done the trick of installing an oreo rom (Validus) and going back to stock. It worked and I got back Baseband on bootloader and then in the OS.
I have backups from my EFS from TWRP and PartitionsManager (modem, modemst1, modemst2 and persist) within the OS. Restoring those was no good. It worked before but not now.
I have bootloader C2.06. Before, I had C2.07. Installing the latest update from https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto G5s Plus/Stock/ , being it SANDERS_NPSS26.116-61-5_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml did nothing to update the bootloader or writing the modem.
So far I have a theory and is that, the phone is not taking flashing to the bootloader and or the modem as it should. I am using a high quality USB cable. Changed cables, too. Also, I think something weird is happening with the bootloader or chip programming. It is the first time I face something as weird as this.
I also think it does not like when you start the phone and reboot it quickly. Forgot its Baseband.
Let's be detailed and share experiences to find a cause and then a solution. I have more than 30 hours spent trying to fix this and it is getting to a scary point.

I lost imei and signal....somehow I don't have my efs backup....tried every combo of ROM to get signals ie. something 2g/3g but nothing happens...
However my baseband is intact
Am on 1686 Indian varient
Q. Will moto z Oreo modem work?? Am planning to give it a try

Please start in bootloader and see what it says in baseband.

Let's be detailed and share experiences to find a cause and then a solution. I have more than 30 hours spent trying to fix this and it is getting to a scary point.

You can start with this
Code:
https://www.androidbrick.com/ultimate-guide-qualcomm-snapdragon-xiaomi-mi5-imei-and-baseband-repair-fix/
and it's sister article part 2. I wrote a how-to on using QFIL to back-up and restore qcn files, and my research started there. However, after seeing how many cannot follow basic instructions to use adb/fastboot and even sometimes twrp, I am not going to post it. Let's just say you can edit the proper baseband components, but it is not going to be download and click to install. You will need the following to get started:
Code:
1.[QPST] https://www.androidbrick.com/download/download-latest-qualcomm-flasher-qfil-qpst-2-7-460/
2.[Qualcomm drivers]https://gsmusbdrivers.com/download/android-qualcomm-usb-driver/
3.[hexeditor]http://www.mitec.cz/hex.html
4.[IMEI convertor]https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962021903579482959
5.Motorola USB drivers [you probably already have these, if you have used adb/fastboot]
You will also need a knowledgeable donor who is willing and able to donate a working backed up qcn file, of the same make/model, and bootloader must be in same state as yours. Although this will have the IMEI , it can be edited to 0 out all but the first digit of the IMEI and thus be safe for posting without fear of someone cloning it. This method has been done with other qualcomm chipsets, and the ultimate goal would be to get the proper working qcn file disassembled and compared to the faulty ones to see exactly where the basebands are being corrupted by the Oreo roms.

Please start in bootloader and see what it says in baseband.

Thanks for sharing. Very interesting, indeed.
In my particular case, it happened for no apparent reason. Quick reboots being a suspect here. It seems some got baseband and no imei, others no baseband at all... Any ideas on this?

dev here.
I've been looking into this problem for quite a while now.
Can anyone briefly summarise the problem? Like what all you flashed?
From my understanding:
efs = modemst1 & modemst2 = baseband cache = created on the fly
important baseband related partitions: modem, fsg, persist
Additionally I'm sharing potter retin (march) firmware files: (Download)
Try flashing this (on stock 7.0):
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash persist persist.img

Because the non-hlos.bin is of 100 mb while in stock ROM it is of around 75 mb,
So can you describe the method to restore this.

6. today i downloaded #rachitrawat's twrp system backup file and formatted every thing using twrp and restored the system file and reboot... now i am on stock march security patch and i didnot loose my imei and volte .....

I'm on an oreo rom(no volte). Will i be able to flash stock when the oreo rom is officially released? And hopefully get volte?

There are two system backup zip in that folder.
And what if you again flash system with fastboot after restore that backup.????
Is IMEI still there.??

I guess... This same issue i faced already....
So next step u have to push ur Modem.img, fsg.img && hw.img.
Previously am facing this issue, that time @echo92 help me for fix this.
After that u have to flash with same stock rom what i send u the link in previous post.
Steps u should follow :
1. First You download the files from here - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1vQHJB37RV4Iv83jeO5mymw-UNe9KtRNm
2. copy the files to your adb or miniboot folder.
3.Open CMD and boor ur phone into TWRP and check once ur device is ready with fastboot devices command
4.Execute the Following commands
Code:
adb push modem.img /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
adb push fsg.img /dev/block/mmcblk0p16
adb push hw.img /dev/block/mmcblk0p43
5.Go to ur bootloader again. with fastboot. and flash with that same latest stock rom and check. ur baseband once.
6. i think this baseband will come as EMEA_CUST. But it will get signal network.

IMEI problem on october patch oreo rom (stock moto)

Hey guys, I tried flashing the stock moto oreo rom (october patch) through 1. flashing via fastboot and 2. twrp flashable rom.
Both methods worked but I lost my IMEI, regardless of which method I flashed the rom with.
I had made two EFS & Persist backups (one from resurrection remix rom and one from a twrp nougat june patch rom) and tried to restore them after flashing the moto oreo rom, but no success.
Can anyone help me with this? I really want to use the stock oreo rom!

Please help guys!

What version of twrp?
twrp which error during restore?

Ever flashed someone else's persist file when you were on stock?

I too am in the same boat, I upgraded to 8with the smart assist no isshes. and when trying to restore my efs and persits (backed up from android 7) with twrp it just doesnt work, hope someone has a fix
twrp-3.2.3-1-potter
for me
my imei also shows up in my settings but doenst work

Try flashing one of the full flashable zips from that thread, get the last one. But in the installer, do not select firmware.
Hopefully that will get you going again. And no, don't ever install an ota.

Thanks for all your help is there any way to fix OTA updates? like relocking bootloader? or should I just leave that unlocked ?
I just installed \POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-4_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
and am getting a 3g \ H signal now but its a different sim card and service from original card, seems to be working now
Is it just oreo that screws everything up , I know this is all over but its not very straight forward
im no android expert clearly

Bootloader doesn't matter, can stay unlocked.
And the IMEI/4g problem is Nougat only, never heard of someone who lost something on Oreo or when updating to it.
If you flash latest Oreo firmware for your region (endings with 17-xx are US, 13-xx is for the rest as far as I know) you should be good to go.
