Hi. If anyone has a stock backup of Indian XT1760 and willing to share? I flashed TWRP without backing up my stock ROM first and now I am stuck with an old version. An OTA update notification keeps on popping up. I know I can disable the update notification, but I really want to be on the latest patch. Thanks in advance.
@gururoop i will try to upload the stock backup of Moto E4 and the good thing is you don't have to update to the newest one The stock backup is updated and comes with latest security patch
Have fun :fingers-crossed:

I don't think you can update that way. Don't you need the modem and other things in the update that a twrp backup doesn't cover?

@madbat99 Let me correct you buddy
Its a miracle tool dump not a TWRP dump. This means, i have backup of whole firmware files. (frp, secro, seccfg, para, pgpt, nvram, nvdata, hw, oem, oemkeystore, keystore, efuse, utags, tee1, tee2, protect1, protect2 & etc etc). Hope you got it.

Right on dude. I was actually asking. Often times people here usually mean TWRP when they say they have a backup. Glad you are a little more thorough and I kind of wish you had the Qualcomm version, lol.

i owns a mediatek variant of e4 and you know their's no community support for MediaTek variant of E4. In firmware center no official stock rom for Mediatek E4, only available for Qualcomm variant
EDIT : I bricked my E4 almost 3 Times and send it to service center for repair. Lenovo does not provide official OS. so theirs no way to make it alive. scatter file gives some strange error and miracle tool isn't capable of flashing new SOCs like MT6737 without a dongle.

Hi. If anyone has a stock backup of Indian XT1760 and willing to share?

The file is XT1663_USR_S356_1706211351_mp7V1_ROW_target_bin.7z
So it is for XT1663. Are you sure we can use in XT1662?
Is it a custom rom??

I have read in russian forum that flashing eu version with xt1662 rom would lose imei. How can i known flashing xt1662 with xt1663 rom will not be wrong?
I buyed my phone on ebay. Model is xt1662 but some system apps version is 6.0_xt1663_s096..... seller told me is a Chinese version but prepare to overseas... what do you think? Do you have the same and tried it?
Some Motorola forums reports some bugs in Nougat, so i found xt1663_usr_s356_1706211351_mp7V1-ROW and i want to flash it but I'm afraid of brick my phone.
Thank you so much.
Please Custom ROMs Moto M xt1662 or 1663. Android 8.0 Oreo
IMEI issue
I live in Canada, I got this xt1662 from China. No luck with installing google play at all. The xt1663 rom works for the xt1662 phone, however, the IMEI is not working at all. I cannot make phone call at all.
I have the same problem, could you solve it?
Apparently it's a matter of luck ... My moto M that came from China does not have any problems with the iMEI. I'm sorry if you had problems, I'm going to remove this software from here :/

Don't remove it if it works for the XT1663, just remove the XT1662 par from the title and the posts.

Please don´t do it! - The Nougat 7.0 firmware for XT1663 (xt1663_usr_s356_1706211351_mp7V1-ROW) works very well on the XT1662! Including mobile phone network connection.
After flashing firmware the only thing is, your have to write back your IMEI´s to the NVRAM. Use the tool maui meta & the right modemdb file to find the right address pointers (= nvram database). A generic MTK 6750 modem database file are perfect, because the xt1662 & xt1663 uses a higher clock variant of thr cpu (MTK6755). Please take time and search for the right quides. It is very easy to do it
If you do not know your two IMEI´s please have a look on the shipping package. There is a label with your IMEI´s.
Just my 2 cents
Best regards.
Moto M brick
Hello, try to flash this rom with the flashtool and now it does not turn on, either in fastboot mode but the pc does recognize it although it does not install the rom correctly.
Please help me to relive it.

That's a really good ROM, and it's been working just fine. But where did you get it?
Flashed the NPN25.137-35 (Jan patch) stock rom on my moto g 5 plus to unbrick my phone. Went well but after booting, I'm not getting any OTA updates.
Flashed a newer version of the firmware - POTTER_NPNS25.137-35-5 (May patch) by following a video. Still not getting any updates.
PLEASE HELP!
Please reply guys!

I explain you based on my experience: You will never receive any more OTA as you don't have in sync the OEM partition. The OTAs check the "build.prop" in SYSTEM and the "oem.prop" in OEM. A lot of firmwares here for flashing your device lacks the OEM partition.
So, try to reflash a full firmware.
I hope it helps you!

I flashed the Brazil ROM (.15 version) on my G5 Plus and got the OTA update to the .67 version. After installing the update, the device went into a hard bricked state. No bootloader. Only the LED blinks when the device is connected. Tried reviving the bootloader using blankflash but it fails each time I try.

Yeah, attempting to downgrade from the retail US May 2017 patch (NPNS25.137-35-5) to the Indian/Brazil .15 firmware and then attempting to take OTA updates has caused hard bricks previously.
Which blankflashes have you tried? Does the albus (Moto Z2 Play) blankflash work? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73062532&postcount=15 I do not know if any of the Moto Z Play blankflashes may work (given the similar hardware) or may not depending on how new they are.

Oh hey it got fixed. Flashed the debloated and deodexed ROM for the g5 plus. This is the ROM that's advised to flash after a hard brick, for this phone. And yeah I used the Albus blankflash. It worked successfully!

Good to hear you got your device working. I imagine you could flash the TWRP flashables if you wanted a more updated system (since these flashables don't affect the GPT/bootloader, where the majority of the hard bricks seem to arise): https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/development/rom-twrp-flashable-stock-builds-t3675616

It has to be said that a lot of users coming from 64bit custom ROMs are losing their voLTE, 4G or even IMEI when returning to stock.
If you have a nandroid backup of your stock ROM (you better have one) restore it, that would be the safest way. Or at least restore the EFS partition.
If you don't have a nandroid make one of EFS from your custom ROM and restore it if you run into one of the mentioned problems after flashing your stock firmware.

Edit.
Correction: Indian firmware is named 92-8 for march security patch not 93-8 which is for europe and US.

Yes. Without the firmware you are going to flash (or restore) there's no way to relock the BL.
You could try to use the indian variant which is uploaded (92-8) but that may cause trouble, the inability to receive and install future OTA or other software related issues.
The best way should be waiting for the 93-8 firmware.

How can i solve this problem? Do i have to simply wait for the 17-6 firmware to be leaked? :crying:

You can try Lenovo Motorola Smart Assistant:
https://support.lenovo.com/de/de/downloads/ds101291
It should find the latest security patch for your device and save in on your PC.
You can fastboot flash it than.
Btw, it's not that bad to be on 17.4 because 17.6 is the last official security patch/update that Lenovo will release at all.

Thank you. I used the lenovo motorola smart assistant and i managed to download the latest stock rom for xt1687 which is POTTER_OPSS28.85_17_6_cid50_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml.
I don't know if i can post the image here but you can do it the same way i did. Plug the phone to your pc with the lenovo desktop app installed, enable usb debugging and go to flash. From there select manually from rescue the device and then go to fastboot. It will show the latest official image present in the phone ( even if you have a custom rom) and simply download it. When it finished don't press rescue and the image will be in
C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles . If this is a repost of any kind i apologize.

You're welcome and thank you for sharing your experience. You are allowed to share that firmware, just zip it and load it up to one of the known hosters like Dropbox or similar. But you're also right, should be possible for everyone else to do the same that you did.

IMO it's a shame that Lenovo has stopped supporting this phone only after two years! IMO the phone is great for it's price/performance. These short planned obsolescence is ecologically harmful. I am certainly not planning on replacing this phone unless there is another in the price range that is quantum leap better, or until 5G is ubiquitous.
