Any idea for what device the image ATHENE_AMZ_MPJ24.139-64_65_cid50_amz.tgz on https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=s...les&flid=72578 is meant ?
(AMZ = ?)
I am currently running ATHENE_MPJ24.139-49_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip from this source, on my XT1642 (channel reteu)
Maybe Amazon?
I appreciate everybody's help. However I can't tell if the the correct firmware listed is for US XT1644 FIRMWARE. I see I have the correct build. I have as of yet not unlocked my device. However I want to load my own backup all my images using dd command except data. Upload and post links for the United States build, as I just don't see nothing. Any help to the stock build United States build XT1644 would be great? Thanks
Also when unlocking the my device is there any issues I will run into, off the top of your heads?

Thanks guy. Looks like someone took down the files. Not sure why, any other link to XT1644_ATHENE_RETUS_MPJ24.139-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-XT1644_CFC.xml.zip
I've start downloading the file this morning without any problems. The FileFactory folder link is not down neither the files in it.

9 is the latest firmware for the US model. im not sure what the very bottom one "harpia" is for?
I have bought mine unlocked and it is "retus". It has the MPJ 24.139-48 fw. Radio is M8952_70009.08.03.45R ATHENE_RETUSA_CUST.
If I check the update it says it's up-to-date.

ATHENE_AMZ_MPJ24.139-64_65_cid50_amz.tgz is for the Indian variants, not the US nor European variants.

Harpia is the codename for the Moto G4 Play. Athene is the G4/G4+.
Thanks everybody for helping out. Please continue to write more info about the US XT1644 as there is not alot in on this model.

yup but .9 is the latest. it has fixes for battery and the phone. i flashed it via fastboot on my XT6144 and it works great.
Well, the -49 (not 9) it's not to be found on Moto US website or OTA, it just appeared here like magic and the change log (supposedly) here. So I am not sure about it's provenience and that the fixes are not a placebo.
Anyway, I understand the "itch" to install it. Because I am so tempted myself
LE: Well, I did it. Flashed the MJP24.139-49 on my XT1644, I am restoring the apps now from backup.
Are these TWRP flashable or fastboot?
Yes, fastboot is avail after you unlock the bootloader on Motorola site (loosing the warranty).
I have booted into TWRP to root (SU systemless method), but didn't actually flash it (because I don't plan to switch to CM at this point).

I'm already on CM but there's the bug preventing me from receiving calls unless I turn off LTE. I'd prefer to not lose root and don't have access to a PC, so if I can wipe and flash this in TWRP, that would be perfect.
No, you can't, you need the standard recovery to get back to stock. Then you can root as I said.
As for CM13, I had used it (beta and after that nightlies) on one of my previous devices (Asus, based on Snapdragon 615, 64 bit, 3GB RAM)... but it was too unstable to use as a daily phone. Always something to be "fixed" and very often something else was breaking. Disappointed...
Security Patch Level
Can someone who has flashed the -49 build confirm what the security patch level is? Just wondering if it's the same update India and Europe received OTA.
Ok so, Ive been searching the forums but haven't found a concise answer.
Background info:
Moto G4 XT1625 (Amazon Prime ad Version)
Bootloader unlocked
Not rooted
Software Channel/Variant: amz
Current software version: MM 6.0.1
Build Number: MPJ24. 139-64
What I'd like to know is:
1.) Can i flash the stock non-amazon prime version rom for this model to my phone safely, thereby changing the software variant/channel to retus?
2.) Is the rom for MPJ24.139-63 available to flash as i want to try out the nougat soak test, and is the soak test recommended?
Cheers.

I don't think flashing a non-Amazon factory room will change the channel to retus. As for the soak test, some have had no problems and some have had problems. I can tell you that flashing the soak can stop the official update. At least it did for me when I did an official soak on my G3. Motorola wasn't a lot of help in getting it fixed but eventually one of their engineers pushed me an update.

I'm probably wrong, but I thought the prime version with ads had an un-unlockable bootloader? How did you unlock it?

Well, you are probably in a pretty unique situation and not going to find a lot of folks that can say they did it and it worked.... good luck you lucky bastard Mine was not eligible.
I am trying to re-lock the bootloader, which requires flashing a stock firmware. But it won't allow flashing any older version due to older security patch. Any ideas?
Is the full firmware for the US version with May security update available somewhere?
If you're after the NPNS25.137-35-5 firmware, have a look here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=171014 (Just ensure you download the firmware that doesn't have AMZ in its name for retail devices, AMZ is for Amazon Prime devices )
Please doublecheck that it's the right firmware for you - I'm trying to work out which firmwares are for which regions, but Motorola isn't making it easy...
EDIT - maybe people can confirm, is this accurate (I sourced the info from the Moto G5 Lenovo forums)?
G5 Plus (potter)
NPN25.137-15 (India), updated to NPN25.137.67 (March security patch)
NPN25.137-33 (EU?) - updated to NPNS25.137-33-5 (May security patch)

Hi!!! Hey could you please help me with something? Can you tell me which version of bootloader you have right now?
To know that, you have to restart the phone into bootloader mode, and you have to tell me the number after BL: line
You'll see something like:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)
BL: C1.07 (sha-9d7f987, 2017-04-01 13:44:7) <---- THIS IS WHAT I NEED TO KNOW!!! Please!
Or could you take a picture of this screen?

I totally hardbricked my potter. To revive it, I had to blankflash some files from other Moto phone. Now I have the bootloader from Moto Z Play (which has the version number I gave you as an example).
I asked you the bootloader version to make sure I can flash the new 135.5-5 bootloader and partition table to return my phone back to normal! But since I have software parts from Moto Z Play, I'm afraid it wont accept potter bootloader back again. So, I'll test this later!

Great question. Mine is the US version with -33, so it must not be an EU firmware. I asked the same question a few weeks back and no one can confirm either way. I do wish we had some confirmation so someone doesn't flash the wrong version. Maybe if everyone responded with version info (screenshot?) and location?

Yeah, Moto G5 Plus firmwares seem to be confusing, and I agree, we don't need/want more bricks!
From what I've been reading on the Lenovo forums, as the users there are more likely to have stayed on the firmware originally issued:
1)Looks like 137-33 and 137-35 were deployed in the US (though 137-33 seems to be more widely reported in the EU).
2)137-35 seems to be an emergency patch to update 137-33 for devices on the Verizon network (to fix the 911 call bug if you were running VoLTE on Verizon) and was released on retus devices: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G...5-OTA-update-just-received-in-US/td-p/3730072 I had a look at the updater script for that patch (from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/help/update-to-fix-volte-911-bug-t3594630 ) which appears to confirm it too:
Code:
ui_print("Source: motorola/potter/potter:7.0/NPN25.137-33/35:user/release-keys");
ui_print("Target: motorola/potter/potter:7.0/NPN25.137-35/37:user/release-keys");
3)Seems that devices running on other networks are on the 137-33 firmware (e.g. AT&T, retus: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G...ce-G5-plus-stuck-on-NPN25-137-33/td-p/3738547)
4) Seems that there's 2 update paths to the May security patch:
From 137-33 > 137-35 > NPNS25.137-35-5 (this May update seems to be also the wider reported version too for US devices, probably this is the path if you are on the Verizon network)
From 137-33 > NPNS25.137-33-5
I don't know if there's any major differences between the 2 builds besides the VoLTE 911 fix, or if you were on the 137-33-5 build whether you could switch to the Verizon network and be able to make emergency calls on VoLTE (I honestly would hope that fix was rolled into both May patches though...) I'm also not sure what factors decide which update you get, besides possibly being on the Verizon network at some point?
I honestly hope at a later date, Motorola unifies the firmware (like they've done with the G4 Plus), so you can just flash one version rather than multiple different types.
Again, if someone has more information (as I don't have a G5 Plus), feel free to add/correct what I've written!
I have a US version that was shipped with NPN25.137-35 and I'm on the AT&T network.

If you mean the NPN25.137-35 firmware, I don't think it was released in India (unless your device came with it?). As far as I can tell, looks like 137-67 appears to be the latest build currently for India.

Hello XDA - Am new here, but thought i'd share my info - I have build number NPNS25.137-33-5 (7.0 Nougat) with 1. May (just upgraded from jan/feb if memory serve) as latest security patch. I am from Europe, more specific based in the Benelux area (NL/BE/GE) - If i can provide any more info on the matter, please let me know!

I'd suggest staying on NPN25.137-67 if you're on an Indian device, else you may not receive OTA updates. Furthermore, if you swap to 137-35 you may run the risk of bricking your device in future.
So I went ahead and took a chance and flashed the *35 build on top of *33 in rsd lite. It works. Almost immediately I got the OTA of the *35-5 update. I think @echo92 is right and it is more geared towards Verizon. It took me a little to get AT&T to work on LTE here in the US but it all seems fine now.
I had -35 flashed on EU device and no updates for me.

Ah, then you may be on the wrong build for the EU region (I've only seen reports of 137-33 for the EU), and thus the reteu software channel might not have an update for you. I see from your previous post you flashed the 137-35 update onto your device?
I honestly don't know if you can safely revert to NPN25.137-33, but here's a stock NPN25.137-33 ROM to flash via fastboot (as always, back up your data and keep it off your device, as this fastboot ROM will likely wipe your device in the flash): https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/RETAIL/
I also do not know what will happen if you try to flash the NPNS25.137-35-5 update onto a reteu device (it might work, but could result in you being off the update path still).
Good luck either way.

Update TWRP to the latest.
Hey, can anyone provide and confirm which version of the stock firmware fits EU devices best? I bought used device with custom rom on it, and I'm curious which version should be base for my EU (german) device to get legit OTAs and security updates for my region? I'm a bit confused, because I couldn't find any proper adnotation for each firmware out there.
In other words, which stock rom versions will be suitable for European retEU XT1685 Moto G5 Plus? I don't want to mess something up if some stock firmwares are not meant to be flashed on EU device.
Please cleanse my concerns.
Cheers!

I see, so you started from flat NPNS25.137-33? How about the -67 version on EU devices, as it fixes some issues ie with camera recording?
Thats only on retin, this is the latest on reteu.
Hmm I installed myself -35 version before, in settings i had retEU, but couldn't get any ota updates and was on january securities.

I am currently on a 7.1.2 custom rom and want to flash stock Oreo but when I look at the official download list, there seems to be dozens of different variants for AMZ, RETAIL, RETEU etc and I have no idea where to start.
I have an XT1685 (with the NFC chip) and live in Australia, but will be travelling around Russia and Europe for the next 12 months - Can anyone recommend which firmware I should use?

You should use the one you were coming from.
Regarding Oreo stock there are basically just two different firmwares, the ones ending on 85-13-x are for almost all regions, ending on 85-17-x are for the US.
So in your case I would think the latest firmware for non US should be the correct choice, that's 85-13-5:

You should use the one you were coming from.
Regarding Oreo stock there are basically just two different firmwares, the ones ending on 85-13-x are for almost all regions, ending on 85-17-x are for the US.
