I have read about retail one, on firmware center, but i am still waiting for my device from bangood.
Have a try, taking care about modem (it seems dosn't work if you don't preserve the original one).

Hello. I own the Moto Z2 Play Mod: XT1710-08 with the ZUI. I would like to take it the stock ROM, but I don't know which model can be fine with my device.
Has anyone already tried or can it help me?
Thanks so much

i changed Rom to stock Blur Version ROM NPSS26.116-19-1-6.
During flash steps, i didn't flash adspso.bin, non-hlos.bin, modem.bin and fsg.mbn.
My phone is working with IMEI fine.

Thank you, but after several days i have posted here my solution: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-play/how-to/fastboot-rom-oreo-retail-via-fastboot-t3786153/page1

Hi, Do u have a link?

Also if you're just concerned with the launcher (it's terrible!) you can just install another launcher from the play store.

I am not an expert in this area, but just wanted to share a method that worked for me to convert ROM of XT1710-08 China variant phone (with Android 7.1.1 ZUI interface) to Oreo 8.0.0 US retail version
Basically I followed the instructions from below thread with some changes.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-play/how-to/how-to-manually-update-moto-z2p-to-t3677357
I had already unlocked bootloader and not sure if that was really needed for this. (Make sure you have USB drivers and latest adb/fastboot utilities and verify fastboot is working with the phone)
1. Using fastboot, flashed the 8.0.0 Chinese ROM from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/albus_retcn/official/RETCN/
Please note, system.img and oem.img may be split into multiple files, so update the .bat file accordingly.
2. next, flashed the US retail version from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/albus/official/RETAIL/
Here I skipped the modem related images (NON-HLOS.bin ,fsg.mbn , dsp adspso.bin , and did not erase modemst1 and modemst2) - see below commands from the bat file.
echo off
echo -------------------------------------------------------------------------
echo Moto Z2 Play ROM Flash Start

3. Reboot to recovery and do factory reset. This is important. For me the the phone went into a boot loop, until I did this reset.

Moto E4 Qualcomm (Owens) completely back to stock

WARNING: if the gpt.bin flash did not work, please stop and do not continue with the rest of the commands. It has been brought to my attention that software upgrades to the phone has changed the gpt and may not allow you to go back to the original stock firmware.
For all of you who DID NOT do a System image backup in TWRP and then found out your backup doesn't work.
First get your stock firmware here, the only place to get Moto stock firmware!
https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto E4 Plus/Stock/
Then get fastboot. Google fastboot or grab the one from here: This one still works:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
If your fastboot directory isn't in your $PATH or you don't know how to do that, then copy fastboot into the same folder where you unzipped your stock firmware.
Got to the folder where you put everythig, open up a command or powershell prompt. Hold down shift, right click, "open command window here".
Now for the fun. You veterans can just look at the flashfile.xml to see the order. Those of you who are new, here are the commands you need to do. You could probably copy the entire thing and past it in your command window at one time. But I like to type it out.... line by line. You know, old school.
Commands:
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash gpt gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem hlos.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.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 system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
the command to erase ddr will probably fail, but that shouldn't affect anything. I have tested by bringing my Moto E4 Plus that was running Lineage OS back to 100% stock. Of course, then I went right back to Lineage

Outstanding. Thank you for the post. I'm sure this will get used quite a bit. I did do a backup but it's always nice to have contingencies at the ready.

I know this may sound like a stupid question, but which firmware package should I download and use for the Device purchased straight from Motorola? There are quite a few there and I don't want to flash the wrong one. This device was supposed too work on any US carrier and I would like to keep it that way, but my carrier is Verizon. All I had to do, when I got the device was install my Verizon Sim out of my Nexus 6 and it worked great. I do test for Cricket network too and that is a GSM radio so as I said, I would like it to have the firmware that would have come right from Motorola for this specific device. Thank you in advance.

Thank you very much. You sir are an awesome person.

I have another question and forgive me for being a pain but all steps went ok but at the end where the re-boot takes place it just keeps flashing back and forth from a black screen with "Bad Key" in the upper left corner and then to a screen with a colorful circle that says "erasing". I figured it was just doing a factory reset but it just keeps flashing back and forth between the 2 screens. Any idea what to try ? I tryed to boot to recovery and get the same thing. Thank you for any help.

Did you remember to do an fastboot OEM fb_mode_clear?

no I didn't do that. I will go back over your instructions and re-do it. Thank you again for your assistance. I usually don't bug people for help and try to fix things on my own so I really appreciate you help.

I haven't had that problem. Have you scanned your PC for virus/malware?

I would like to relock my bootloader but on this firmware it says the boot is not signed. Can I relock it after I do the ota as they should be signed then right?

Lost biometric sensor

Hi, this happened to me, back to the stock rom (Android 7.0) of the device and do the whole procedure. And your sensor will work

Be careful to do not downgrade your bootloader though.
This tutorial helped me to recover biometrics in my phone (XT1676, reteu, 3/16, DualSIM).
I am not responsible for any damage! If you proceed to follow this, you're doing it at your own risk.
1. Make sure, your adb and fastboot is working.
I recommend using this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 . For me, it's fully working on Win8.1 x64. If you install it (press "Y" for all of 3 questions), but after connecting phone you see "Fastboot cedric S" with yellow exclamation mark in device manager, there's problem with driver: right click on it --> "Update driver software" --> "Browse my computer for driver software" --> "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" --> "Android devices" --> "Android Bootloader Interface" --> "Next" --> "OK" --> "Close"
(Open cmd and use "cd" command to get to directory, where's adb installed (in this case "cd C:\adb"). Then, press Enter and type "Fastboot devices". If fastboot is properly installed with corresponding drivers, you will see your device listed.)
2. Download this firmware https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hlNzlFhLCEj6xigfKrYcvnwH9jy3f5j3/view and extract it to the same directory as adb is installed.
3. Boot your phone into fastboot mode by pressing and holding power and vol- buttons for few seconds.
4. NOW, THE MOST IMPORTANT PART! Check your bootloader version.
4a. If your bootloader version is B8.25, use these commands to flash:
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
4b. If your bootloader is B8.24 and lower, use these commands:
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.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 oem oem.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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
5. Your phone should reboot and sucessfully boot into OS in few minutes with fingerprint working.
DON'T EVEN TRY TO TAKE OTA UPDATES.
6. (optional) However, if you want to update your phone, update it manually with correct files from this site https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/cedric-ota-archive-t3795275

XT1670 with audio issue

Ohayo!
The phone has problems with audio. However, I think it can be more or less determined what it is due to. Two days ago the music started to be heard as if it were escaping from The Matrix. If you locked the device, the music would stop. Then the bootloop started, constant bootloop. The only way the phone works is in total silence mode. If the phone is started with sound, it is necessary to clean the cache so that it starts again in total silence mode. Sometimes it doesn't even start the audio, directly without sound engine. If any application tries to access the sound, bootloop starts. If you want to record a video, the phone goes into bootloop. If you get a notification with sound, the phone restarts. If you want to listen to music, the phone will play it for 10 seconds. Then the music will be distorted as if it were a horror movie. Finally the phone will stop responding and after 5 seconds it will enter bootloop. I'll try to use a rom here, but I guess the problem is hardware.
What do you think? I would like to know your opinions.
Thank you for reading this short summary.
Have a nice day

The phone was already formatted with official firmware (Motorola LMSA) without positive results. In Windows manager it appears as 'MPT Device' instead of its normal ID.

If flashing stock firmware via fastboot doesn't solve the problem then it's a hardware issue & not software

Yep, it was a hardware problem.

momentarily I bought a Haylou GT1 to solve the problem. The bluetooth codec works well in terms of audio, and even lets you listen to WhatsApp conversation. However the phone has random reboots and each time it does it it tries to start the audio. The results are clearly appalling. The phone reboots 16 (or more) times before achieving stability. I want to root the phone and prevent it from starting the audio hardware, until I can get it for service. Which line should I delete so that the audio service does not start?

Downgrade Z2 play pie to oreo

Recently i install pie 9.0 on z2 play, to try to fix the fingerprint scanner and gestures but still doesnt work, i was reading that is a problem from oreo, so i want to Downgrade to oreo to nougat, it's posible?

Anything below Pie is vulnerable to the X-helper rootkit... we were just talking about it in another thread. It's a real nasty little bugger.

But its posible? I just want to get all the features back, even, i dont know what is that thing, if they have some to hack me i dont have to much to lose anyways, just want to downgrate to fix the fingerprint bug from oreo

Don't know. Hopefully someone with this device can help you.

How exactly did you install it? FP not working is usually just that the fw is needed, but that's only if you are running a custom rom. What specific issue were you facing before and what OS were you running

Install via "ota", just donwload 9.0 official motorola firmware, put it into internal storage, then go to settings - search for updates, then install.
The problems are, fingerprint doesnt work, but this is a problem from oreo. And i want to go back to nougat

that's probably the worst available way to do it. If your phone didn't originally receive it via OTA, then you are forcing it the wrong way.
If you want to go back to nougat all you need to do is download the official N firmware, then flash everything but bootloader and gpt

What is gpt? I need to unlock bootloader and flash whit wrp? I heard about losing imei or something like that

Download the official N firmware from https://mirrors-obs-2.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/2017/albus/official/RETAIL/
Then, extract it and reboot your phone into fastboot (shut it down, hold down volume down and turn it on, you should arrive at fastboot that way)
Install minimal adb and fastboot if you dont have them installed ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-2-9-18.2317790/)
After that, you open a terminal where you extracted the firmware, run fastboot devices to check that A) fastboot is installed and that B) your phone is recognized and then you run
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.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 system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.11
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
This WILL format your phone, but it should leave you with a booting N system(maybe, downgrading not always work and going P->N is really unusual)
I'm gonna be honest i do think all of your issues are caused by forcing an OTA where the phone wasn't supposed to have one, but it's your choice

The issues begin on official oreo, i upgrade nougat to oreo then, fingerprint option dissapear, then i upgrade to pie from oficial firmware but issues still remain

It really works? I didnt find any video or post about downgrade like that

Yes it does work, but it's not recommended, that's why you don't find much info
