I seen oreo has been released on the v20 and alearted my youtube fans about the update and not take it or lose root. Since oreo is a new version of Android OS will the uppercut downgrade method still work for oreo to 13a or will it brick the phone
If it will brick the phone is there a way to downgrade to 13a or is there a root method for oreo
Thank you

I understand Motorola will no longer provide updates for our phone. Is any developer planning on adapting updates from Moto G5S or other Moto models for our phones? If not, is there a tutorial somewhere for it?

Why do you want to port other phone software, when you can just install roms which are stable and fast.

I'm having network issue on my Moto G5 Plus. Sometimes there is network and sometimes there is no network. Even when there is network, data service is not working. When there is network sometimes I can make or receive calls but sometimes I can't. A service centre representative said that it might be a software issue. If that's so, is there any fix for this problem? or is it a hardware problem?

You're giving absolutely no information.
Firmware version? Android version? Stock or custom ROM? Unlocked BL or not? Rooted and if yes how (which magisk version?)
Without information nobody is able to help you.

In this case the only option would be reflashing your firmware (you didn't post your version, if you took all OTA updates it should be 8.1.0_OPS28.85-17-6-2).
If that doesn't help it is most probably a hardware issue.

Happened when? After flashing PE? What was the last thing you did before you got network issues?

The service centre guy did flash firmware however, it didn't solve the issue. He said, then, it's a hardware issue. Tried changing network IC but it didn't work either. The problem was that even after reflashing firmware, LTE network was available but it was not working, like no calls or internet. After changing network IC there was no LTE network at all.
Hey guys, I just bought a a vs995 from ebay new in box hoping it would come in nougat so I could root. But it came stock with 8.0.0
and a security patch date of 10-1-2018. Software version of 20C. Any way to downgrade or root this thing? Thanks for any recommendations.

There's numerous posts on rooting and guides in the forum, this has probably been asked a thousand times in the last three years, search is your friend

All the ones I've seen are for downgrading from unlocked /rooted oreo. Mine is completely stock and I haven't seen anything for that.

Reread them again. They're downgrading in order to root (mostly), not with root.
But the TLDR of those guides is LG UP, in upgrade mode, with whatever firmware (kdz).
Anyway here's a link to the vs995 thread where the guy made videos and has links to lgup and one of the old firmware that can be used to root. If you want to browse or download a different one this site is ok but slowish
