Moto G4 Plus being recognized as Moto G4!! - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello, after installing the stock ROM and blocking the Moto G4 Plus bootloader, I saw that my digital biometric reader stopped working and in the settings my cell phone is being recognized as Moto G4, I tried installing other ROMs but it always remains the same. Sorry for English ..

Maybe you did not flashed the moto g4 plus stock rom. Instead you flashed moto g4 stock rom maybe.
Please check what exactly you have flashed

What version of them the Moto G4 Plus do you have? I mean, XT1642, XT1643, XT1644 (there are different versions). Furthermore there's only one leaked soak test update file, which is eligible for several versions of G4 and G4 Plus, but not all of them!

Why don't you download the other file (that is for your Moto g4 plus) and flash that using stock recovery?

LineageOS possible on Moto G4? Confused :(

guys, I seriously need some answers here.
I just bought a Moto G4 and now I'm getting totally confused by posts like "amazon won't allow any bootloader unlocks" and stuff like this. Also the motorola unlock website seems to be taken down
(Or do I just need to follow these steps: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a) ?
Can anyone tell me, if I can still install LineageOS on my Moto G4? 2y ago I flashed my Moto G and everything worked fine, so actually I should be familiar with the process...
Thanks!
Edit:
Ah, there is a "Moto G (4th Gen.) - Amazon Prime Exclusive" - nice info. And jeah: following the instructions above did get me to an unlocked Moto G4

Regional/carrier/seller restriction - who knows.
Bottom line: if Moto's eligibility check comes back negative you are done. There are no workarounds TMK.
I have seen random posts indicating issues unlocking the xt1602 variant. Only one claiming success.
Might be able to root it; there's a thread discussing an exotic method that most never seem to get through.

I've the same variant, XT1602 Indian version. And i unlocked its bootloader without any problem. Don't know why it is considering your device as ineligible.

From my experience, Moto's website is picky. Make sure there are no spaces in the string you put in. Using the 'scrub tool' provided on the same page is usually a good idea if you're not sure. Sometimes a space can get trapped at the beginning and you can't see it.
Others have tethered a root by using TWRP and flashing that way. I'm still learning how this works and will attempt when I get an XT1609 prepaid Verizon variant.

Can you please specify which rom you flashed as this is common when flashing wrong stock firmware.
But before please read here about your problem(same discussion) https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/help/moto-g4-pluss-model-changed-to-g4-lost-t3496912

Yes, it is possible to install G4 plus roms in G4, without any problem. G4 / G4 plus has the same codename (athene).
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Yes, it works without any problem, I'm using a XT1644 firmware on a XT1622.
