Hello all,
I'm a bit confused about the process of taking my current '3' ROM and changing it to the official Lenovo Rom.
I have downloaded the lenovo drivers (installed and ok) phone is in debug mode.
I have downloaded the stock rom from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/7-0-lenovo-p2a42-stock-nougat-update-t3581517 and have adb / fastboot.
I know I have to use the volume rocker and powerbutton to get into the boot mode but I don't know the commands for adb or fastboot. I have changed the name of the rom to 'update'
Can someone please advise me on the commands I am meant to enter to get this onto my phone please?
Thanks in advance,
Cue
Copy all the code below, paste it to a new text file on your PC and save it as All Files instead of .txt and name it a fastboot.bat. Place the fastboot.bat in the adb/fastboot directory, also place the unpacked rom in the same path. Run it as admin. Profit.
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt_both0.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash system systemchunk0.img

Hi, op here.
Firstly, thank you for responding! Your instructions seem very clear. When i had a look at the contents of the ROM (in zip) i couldn't see any of the systemchunk files you mention, are they hidden deep somewhere?
Regards,
Cue.
If your phone is stock the Rom can be updated without fastboot or a PC.
All the instructions are in that thread.
Huh. Surely just boot into recovery and install the update.zip? No need to have it connected to pc.
Hello all,
Yep. I un-encrypted the sd card copied the zip onto it and booted up that way. Very easy. Now running stock directly from Lenovo which I am very happy about! It also pushed the new 78mb update as well.
Thank you for all your input.
same way i did it too theirs no need to do it through fastboot method just like the other people i did it through the built in recovery by renaming the Nougat rom to update.zip works fine and you will get another update ota straight after t obring it right up to date.
Sounds like you guys have this sorted :highfive:
Just for completeness, can somebody upload the original 3 rom? It just helps out the person who thinks they have a hardware issue and may need to return the phone to 3.
If you try and return your phone and it doesn't have the original 3 rom, your chances of a good outcome are obviously less as you have tampered with the phone etc.
The warranty is with Lenovo Not three.
Doubt there'd be an issue as the bootloader will still be locked and it's an official Lenovo Firmware.
Since flashing nougat and a factory wipe my VOLTE is now working.
I did the same flashed nougat and volte is working but only shows up some times not as much as I'd like is their any way to get volte to work more often. In my bedroom where the signal is weak I don't get the volte symbol at all.

How you enabled VoLte on nougat? You are on stock rom or branded?
I'm on stock unbranded.
VOLTE settings now show up in phone menu and it just works. I had to factory reset though as initially it didn't work after flashing nougat.

All,
I am not a noob by any means, but when I attempted to manually flash the img files via fastboot for the latest N build from the factory images coming from the last 6.0.1 build I get stuck on the Google logo. I checked the commands and re-flashed again and the same result happened ( i did flash radios and BL ) .
I even tried to format data ( i had backed everything up ) , still no go and stuck at google logo still. I could access BL and able to access TWRP.
I got frustrated and flashed the 6.0.1 images including BL and radio via fastboot and booted up just fine. I then rooted, installed flashfire and used the OTA and Android N installed just fine.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this. I am currently on N, but wanted to do a clean install .
Thanks in Advance
Did you flash vendor.img?
Why don't you list the exact commands you used to flash, then people can comment.
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-2-bullhead.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-2-bullhead.img
Flashing mtc20k works successfully
Using the same commands to flashing npf10c results in stuck the google logo
In order for me to even get on N I have to me on 6.0.1 then either use the bullhead-ota-npf10c-d1785fea.zip on the root of the SD card and use flashfire OR use the following command from stock recovery
adb sideload bullhead-ota-npf10c-d1785fea.zip
The later is what I did recently, but both will work to get to N.
So why can I not simply flash the factory images like for 6.0.1?

What happens when you flash a Nougat factory image that is NOT a developer preview? Try flashing NRD91N from here:

I don't usually flash cache or user.
Try this instead and see if it works.

I have tried fastboot erase userdata and fastboot format userdata and fastboot erase cache
fastboot format cache and that never worked.
I tried that factory image before and resulted in the same, however, I will at sometime attempt to do the final of 7.1.1 once it is available sometime in December 2016 and hopefully will resolve the issue.
I will stay on DP1 right now as i find the battery extremely excellent, the Visual VM is back now, and i notice some notifications are coming through better than in 7.0. (I read an article earlier today about notifications and the pixel not coming through)
Thanks in Advance for the people that did come through so far and wanted to thank you for your input on the matter and if i don't have a pixel by December I will try this out.
Can anyone pls tell me where I can download stock rom for (lenovo) p2 preferable in zip format . And is there any unbricking tutorial .
I want this too...? if anyone can help...
I have found the stock ROM, I bricked my device in the rooting process, and am unable to flash the complete stock image, because the device reports "unable to flash bootloader on unlocked device"

Hi, because you should not flash bootloader.
you can try those 2 solutions:
the fast one, it should work. The flashall command flash every.img files he find in the fastboot directory. So try to remove the bootlader.img and execute the flashall command.
the manual one (longer one):
Put only the recovery.img, boot.img, and the system.img files ( you should have something like 13 , named "systemchunk0/12.img") in your fastboot directory and flash with fastboot ( the command is always the same: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, fastboot flash boot boot.img, and for every single part of system.img you should flash like "fastboot flash systemchunk0(until 12).img " so you flash flash 13 times the system with avery 13 parts .
Sorry for my english i hope you solved that

Ah ok i didnt understand that you have this modem issue. I don't kno how to help you...you phone is bricked so you can test few solutions without more risks .
before flash the original recovery , boot and system by fastboot, you can try to install TWRP again and flash only the bootloader from TWRP (should support .zip and .img files). Then you turn the phone in fastboot mode and flash other stuff .

Q: I messed up help me?!
So you screwed up and didn't follow Rule Number One in the IT-Handbook?
Which is: Always create a backup before working on a system?
Download the Factory State Images. Which are all flashable with fastboot: https://goo.gl/JTCwKj
Place the files you want replaced into the "Minimal ADB & Fastboot" installation directory and start it's shell:
If you want to flash back the stock image. Simply run:

Extract all the files listed in the BAT file or simply extract the entire archive to ADB / Fastboot and launch the BAT file.
Does this work?? @Undesirable
the above post
Oh yeah, it unbricked me and put me back to stock so I could get OTA updates for Nougat. You need the archive posted earlier in the thread though.
@Undesirable Nice and elegant solution man! Typing all this stuff was so annoying.
For those who need an alternative download source, I offer this magnet link:
Code:
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ef05ea3af4da8a0cbb137c10621942f3ae16d46f&dn=P2a42_S048_161111_ROW_fastboot.7z
It's slow unless lots of people help to seed it.
Is it possible to flash this firmware 2a42_S048_161111_ROW_fastboot.7z on the P2c72 with firmware build number: V3.5_1652_5.1342.1_ST_p2c72 ???
I bought this phone 4GB Ram/64GB from china, but I want to put the international firmware on it.
Thanks!

how can I replace my data partition? It's not getting formatted due to an encryption error
If fastboot erase userdata doesn't work, then use TWRP to change user data file system to EXT4 then change it back to F2FS again.
Need help...
I flashed back the stock ROM (due to encryption error in custom 7.0 ROM) using fastboot commands, but my SIGNAL WON'T WORK after I started d phone . I've tried reflashing the stock firmware (and also custom ROMs) but my phone won't detect the signal. "About phone" settings show unknown baseband and IMEI... how to get it back

I am currently on lineage OS 14.1 (7.1.2) dated 18.09.2017.

How to find the latest firmware. Found this website which has all the images https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto Z Play/Stock/XT1635-02/
But I am unable to select the correct one for my device. (do not want to brick it). Also found another thread stating latest firmware

Is there a way to go full stock and also start to receive OTA updates. Can someone provide me with full guide with links?
First you need exactly your software channel and the build of your baseband and bootloader. You know how to get this information?
After a lot of tries, finally was able to go back to stock. Will be compiling a guide for other to follow with links.
On latest 7.1.1 with August patches.
Is there a problem with audio fx,
Even viper4android not working.

Process to go from custom rom back to stock (August update)
There are several guides on going back from custom rom to full stock, but still I made this guide with latest links. I just went from LOS 14.1 back to full stock. Below is the step I took:
1) Download and install minimal ADB AND FASTBOOT
I used version 1.4.2 which is the latest version https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120698566
2) Download and install motorola drivers
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
3) Download the latest firmware
I used ADDISON_NPNS26.118-22-1 which has august security updates https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298986785
4) Extract the zip file (firmware) and move all its contents to the folder where you have installed minimal adb and fastboot
5) Create a text file, add the following text to it and save it as "launch.bat" in the same folder.
echo off
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

6) Switch off your phone and open it in fastboot mode (press power and volume down button for few seconds after phone as switched off)
7) Connect your mobile to your computer
8) Click on the launch.bat file that you saved and it will install stock firmware on to your mobile. It will take a couple of minutes. (It will wipe everything on your mobile so take a backup of your important data)
9) Once the process is complete, it will ask you to enter any key, after which it will reboot itself.
Once rebooted, you will have full stock, non rooted, and latest firmware with august patches.
Is this works with European version of Moto Z Play? Like I bought it from France. Thanks.
And can we do OTA updates after doing this?
Thank you so much for this guide, my phone was rebooting to recovery every single time and nothing worked. I flashed this rom as you said and my phone just booted and it's working. I can't believe it.

Thanks a lot for this guide! Just wanted to ask if it's safe and stable to root this and pass safetynet check.
Thanks for you time
Only way to root and still pass safetynet is via magisk
But unfortunately it needs a custom kernel with f2fs fix. However with 7.1 update motorola fixed it but broke some other things.
There is not a custom kernel for 7.1, so till then no way to root and have safety net.
But you can easily root via magisk

This a fantastic guide - THANKS!!! - I have linked to it giving credit. Thanks!
I have also a thread, if you follow that one. Bootloader is locked/ u will be able to get ota'$
Hi everyone,
I bought a Motorola G6 play model XT1922-3 type 374B and wanted root acces on this device.
So I started by succesfully unlocking my bootloader using the following tutorial.
After this a started tried to root the device using this tutorial.
This tutorial doesn't link to boot images anymore so I was able to find the moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img somewhere else.
I did the following things:
- reboot to bootloader [Succesfull]
- fastboot boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img [Unsuccesfull]
The device did boot the twrp image but I was unable to interact with it in any way. I couldn't swipe or press buttons.
I made a short video to show this.
I wanted to retry the whole thing so I did reboot to bootloader but then I accidently entered the following command:
fastboot flash boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img picture of command prompt
After this I wasn't able to normally boot my device. When I try to do so the screen goes black and says n/a in the left corner.
Please does anyone know how I could either be able to boot my normal stock rom again or to have a rooted rom?
Kind regards Sven Onderbeke
Hi Sven,
This isn't going to be the most advanced reply, as I'm not very experienced with this stuff either, but it seems you have accidentally flashed your twrp image to 'boot', wherever that is, which is why the phone isn't able to boot to system.
Can you still boot into bootloader and recovery (twrp)?
If so, then I'd suggest using fastboot to flash a sock or custom ROM. I'm not sure exactly which one though, you have basically the same model as me and that seems to use the JETER ROMS a list of which are over here (can't post links yet, so you will just have to search on mirrors . lolnet . com /firmware/moto/jeter/official/ or remove the spaces
I seem to have somehow lost the partitions on mine, but will start a new thread question about that.

Please does anyone know how I could either be able to boot my normal stock rom again or to have a rooted rom?
Kind regards Sven Onderbeke

Just flash a stock boot.img to boot. Then just flash TWRP to recovery. In TWRP, format data. Type yes. Then reboot recovery. Then Use TWRP to flash magisk. Done.
Hi again Sven,
I just wanted to let you know that I just downloaded the following RETAIL ROM
ALJETER_RETAIL_9.0_PPPS29.55-35-1_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
and used the following fastboot commands, one at a time.
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot reboot
Which rebooted into bootloader so pressed "start" and all booted fine now. It looks like we have the same device, so hopefully that will work for you too.
Okay, so im new to this stuff and still i managed to root the phone and flash RR 7.1.2. But i tried to unroot it and this happend:
I only have access to the bootloader and thats it. No recovery, no ROM nothing....when i start ti, it says that my phoe is unlocked and its dangerous and that the phone will boot in 5 secs but it never does....plz help me..and i wanna know where can i learn about all this stuff...its freaking me out since this the only phone i have.....plz help me..
You have two options
1 - flash twrp recovery and then use it to flash a custom rom
Assuming you have named the recovery image recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1MLlljM7BzMj9Da57LeyBHyg81cHdW1cB
Then wipe system data cache/format data & follow procedure to flash a custom rom
2 - flash stock rom firmware which can be found (plenty of guides out there for how to just search)

If you have unlocked the bootloader it will always says your device is not secure unless you flash a modified boot image

Dude, I'm a total idiot at this stuff...
I was trying to flash the stock ROM by some help from a youtube channel called Andoid Doctor. I used the codes he gave me and the stock firmware he provided me for cedric. But all my computer showed was some slot error.
I'd really appreciate it if you helped me out.

Firmware must be the same or newer
See the link in my post above for all the firmware - choose the right one for your region
If you don't know which to choose just use this one

Wasn't trying to go back to stock myself (though I did have to in the end) but this was the only rom I found that worked full stop. Thanks so much for this.
