Hi I flashed the ATHENE_RETAIL_8.1.0_OPJ28.111-22_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml in my Moto G4 Amazon variant phone.
Now the phone is stocked at logo.
Has anyone root this model with bootloader locked ?

i've just tried, tried rescue but i got an error when trying to install flashboot flash error. Says Flash failed, try again. stuck at 68 Percent
Currently looking in to flashing this.
Did you all try to flash the rom as a single file in twrp or similar or did you try to flash individual files to individual partitions?
With fastboot like:
DO NOT USE FOR THIS PHONE, SHOWN AS EXAMPLE!
sudo fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
sudo fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
I used this kind of code for flashing new software to my G7
(Sudo is for using these commands in linux)
Restore
Just follow those steps, doesn't matter if you have the bootloader locked.
Important:
Next time, unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery, twrp is the most common. After that flash the 8.1, it will reboot several times like if it has a problem but thats just the android config. Don't panic if you see it reach the homescreen and reboot, 3 or 4 times. It will do that untill you see the finishing progress bar prompt when it boots to homescreen
will give a try with this to see if it works.
edit tried, with 7.0 and the second command says preflash validation failed, with 8.1.0 the phone says okay all the commands but when i reboot the phone gets stuck on the blue m logo

Use Windows 7. Rsdlite doesn't work on Windows 10 if I'm not mistaken, probably also on 8/Vista.
Sent from my XT1562 using XDA-Developers mobile app
wont work
I downloaded wine/wineloader on my mac because i have no windows and then i downloaded and used rsdlite for windows 7 but it still wouldnt read
Rsdlite was also unable to detect my Moto X Play. I tried Rsdlite on two laptops both running Window 7 as well as tried different data cables but to no avail.
Was the phone in fastboot mode when you connect it to rsdlite?
Sent from my XT1562 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yes, mine was in fastboot. And I tried various advice from various forums but no success
its stuck on the bootloader screen, i tried it on windows 7 computers and windows 8, my phone wont be detected by any computer, its called "lux" and somethings wrong with the driver, i uninstalled it, installed it again (motorola device manager), in driver settings i uninstalled it, downloaded the latest update for the driver) and my phone would still not be recognized by rsdlite or the computer in general BUT when i tried using the verizon software repair software on my mac, it was read as razr 2 but it would get stuck at 6%

What ROM were you on when you tried Kingroot? It worked perfectly for me after I returned my Xt1564 to stock, then ran Kingroot, I trashed the root app that it installed and replaced with SuperSu Pro. Has been working like a charm for weeks.

Don't worry too much. Rsdlite works perfectly. It might show unknown device but it works
So after booting into fastboot and using the general bootloader unlock method using the commands "fastboot oem unlock" my phone is just looping and looping. I've tried to find factory firmware images from Motorola but there is literally nothing for the E3 2016 (yet). This is a bloody nightmare as I bought the phone today and now it's unusable. I've tried flashing the TWRP version for this phone, but that also doesn't boot!
What do I do? Please help...
Use command fastboot format userdata ...
Already tried that, just wiped the whole partition clean. Unrecoverable. Just got a replacement handset. This phone is not developed upon enough yet.
help having same problem
thx solved myself with spflashtool
Follow the steps below exactly in this order:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot format userdata
* it is possible that you will have to change the file name to twrp.img
If that does not help - you have to upload stock firmware [ eg. Lenovo_XT1706_MT6735M_S135_161108 ] using SP Flash Tool.

Please don`t use the newest firmware! It`s not logical, but true
Use stock lastest firmware with unlocked bootloader:
XT1700 → S124
XT1706 → S135
...and now try fastboot oem unlock, flashing unlock, flash twrp & format userdata.

Hi all,
I have a Moto G5 Plus that I brought on Amazon Prime day (11/07/17). and after trying to install TWRP I have ran into problems.
Heres what happened and where I'm left.
1) I unlocked the Bootlloader via moto website. No problems I now receive the BS message about the phone being unlocked.
2) Tried flashing twrp_3.1.1-0_potter.zip using "fastboot flash recovery twrp_3.1.1-0_potter.img"
Whenever I performed this command and rebooted in recovery I was never taken into the TWRP screen, but taken a screen showing a droid on it back with a message saying no command. I found how to bring up the command menu, but trying to flash the custom roms from the stock recovery always failed.
3) I used this article https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-...-plus-t3605667 and found using this did allow me to boot into the TWRP screen. The only difference i noticed was that when i used the article mentioned above to get into TWRP the phone displayed the Moto boot ami before going into TWRP. It never did this when i used the Flash command manually.
4) Once in TWRP i flashed supersu and the RR .img, wiped cache etc..
On exiting TWRP I was asked whether I wanted TWRP installed as a system app, i selected yes to this question and now.....
5) BRICKED!!!
My moto will only boot into fastboot now and I get this message:-
Start up failed:
the bs about software repair assistant etc.
ap fastboot Flash Mode (secure)
Error: failed to load kernel!
Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from charge boot mode
usb....
6) I tried using this article https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/npn25-137-33-stock-firmware-t3577081
But I'm unsure of this version to use?
My question is can anyone help me to at least get my phone working again. Thanks will be paid.

Which Amazon Moto G5 Plus did you buy on Prime Day? The cheaper subsidized Amazon Prime version with ads or the more expensive non subsidized version without ads?
Apparently you cannot unlock the bootloader on the subsidized ad based Amazon Prime version. This is well discussed. One such discussion from the Lenovo/Moto support forum:
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G5-Moto-G5-Plus/Is-there-anyway-to-unlock-my-Moto-G5-Plus-from-Amazon/td-p/3638019
If one does a forum search on this site they'll find past discussions indicating the bootloader on Amazon Prime subsided Moto G5 Plus phones cannot be unlocked.
Try the Toolkit.
Once in it flash the TWRP and boot_image and try rebooting. If that doesn't work flash the Stock ROM and then flash the TWRP and boot_image. Once you get those flashed you should be able to flash the latest TWRP using fastboot.
Please let me know if that fixed it.
Thanks,
CP

Thanks for the suggestion, however I have tried this toolkit already and when connecting the USB cable, the toolkit only ever says connecting to device, but never manages to actually connect. As such, no command from the toolkit can be run, as when tried I get a "no device" message.
Also when I try to use the toolkit to install Windows 64bit driver, the install stops telling me I have a newer driver installed already.
Do you think I should uninstalled the newer device driver or should the toolkit still connect using the newer driver?

Im 100% confident that my moto has had its bootloader unlocked and that I was not sold a Moto G5 Plus with amazon ads.....
Thanks for your suggestion though.
FIXED back to stock rom. Here's what I did:-
1) Downloaded the stock rom from https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/npp25-137-33-stock-firmware-moto-g5-t3577084
Used the mega link it took 5mins (1.4 mbps) to download.
2) Then run these commands:- (thanks to https://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=5033408)
fastboot oem lock begin
fastboot oem lock begin
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

I didn't install the drivers with the toolkit. Was your phone connected to it in fastboot mode? That's what I had to do to get it to detect mine.
If you can't get the toolkit to work you can still use fastboot to flash the included version of TWRP and the modified boot_image. They're located in TOOLKIT_DIR\resources\app.asar.unpacked\files.

Hi @lohanbarth,
Please change the title of the thread to "[STOCK][ALJETER]Firmware Moto G6 Play".
The reason is to be consistent with the other two threads for "G6" and "G6 Plus".
With this change will be more easy to distinguish for users of the "G6 family".
And thank you for provide theses firmwares! :good:
Sorry if this is a dumbass question but can I flash this on the boost/Sprint variant since it can be bootloader unlocked? And will it remove the bloatware downloading from boost/Sprint. Again sorry if it's a dumb question.

If you have a bricked boost mobile variant and need a jeter rom u can try this backup: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1pHiR6fssHOTJ-13-yttipMdB-DBNv_IM
Just unzip it and put it inside the TWRP folder on your phone and click Restore with twrp. It should flash. I tested it twice on my G6 Play (boost mobile variant) (jeter)
I actually got it flashed through twarp it said it was a success but when I reboot my phone it stays on the Motorola splash screen

bookmobile is cdma the one i have xt1922-9 is a gsm that probley why it wont go a passed the Motorola splash screen after flashing
I followed all the steps, but at the time of restart, I sent back to the boot manager, I had to install the previous firmware
Bty I found the right firmware for the Moto g6 play 1922-9 and it works flawless
if at the end of flashing it is returned to the bootloader...
1 clarification about the firmware opp27.91-87.. in the command lines, one of the system lines is missing:
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
If they add it to the .bat, or if they include it manually, it should start without problems
problem with sound
i flashed my xt1922-4 a few hours ago, but first problem that i found, was the calls, speaker no sound when make or receive calls, only handset and can't install magisk (boot loop after boot moto sequence)

I have the same model and I noticed that one of the lines in the bat file is wrong, the dspso.bin is actually adspso.bin (line 5), just edit it and it should work fine:
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
In addition, add the line that Wid_w mentions:
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
I attach my edited .bat file, I just 've flashed mi phone and everything seems to work without problems.
Thansk for guide, but i cant install Magisk on this OPP27.91-87, stay in M Logo. Any Help? (my poor english)

As you have flashed a TWRP you must have your bootloader unlocked. You need the firmware that your device was on when you did that.
Downgrading i.e. flashing an older firmware can brick your device.
The newer firmwares for reteu/retus are ending on 93-x, like
POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-4 (january security patch)
POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-8 (march security patch)
POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-10 (april security patch)
Earlier ones had another number scheme.
Firmware for India, Brazil and Asia Pacific is ending on 92-x.
I don´t know the Prime exclusive edition but I don´t think that it uses another firmware. But I heard of a Amazon version with ads and an unlockable bootloader?
How did you unlock then? Or are there different versions?
@Wolfcity I really don't know how to respond, but I can't figure this out. I don't know what firmware version to install, I don't know where I can find the firmware version, and whenever I try to run a fastboot command through adb I get stuck on an infinite "waiting for device" message. Can you please help me with step-by-step instructions on how to fix this?

Here are some firmware sources:

I can´t tell you on which firmware you were when you unlocked your bootloader. And the next problem is that you can´t run any fastboot commands, you need fastboot to flash the stock firmware with the commands I posted above.
Have you the latest Motorola drivers and something like Minmal ADB & Fastboot installed?
1) from TWRP run "Bootloader reboot"
2) send the command "fastboot devices" receive the serial number of the phone. Once you have obtained the serial download "POTTER_NPNS25.137-93-4_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.info.txt" and execute the commands as suggested.
@Wolfcity, @antonio52 Thank you guys SO much! I finally got around to doing this, and my device is running perfectly well now! I couldn't have done it without you!
