Guide to restoring factory Image that works?

There isn't much on restoring this device at all. I'm really disappointed. I had high hopes. Anyway, the root situation is a mess, and after looking on here, I couldn't find a single set of instructions for properly flashing root. After digging around for a couple of hours, the only instructions I can find to revert to stock is:
1) Extract folder on PC.
2) Hold POWER and VOL DOWN on the phone to access the fastboot mode. Try to release the power button first before the VOL DOWN in case you trigger the system boot accidentally.
3) Connect USB cable to PC.
4) Flash in the following order:
Code:
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 oem oem.img
Complete restore
WARNING: May wipe device, and has not been personally tested.
Before flashing the above, flash these first:
Code:
fastboot flash gpt.bin partition
fastboot flash bootloader.img bootloader
fastboot flash NON-HLOS.bin modem
fastboot flash fsg.bin fsg
fastboot flash adspso.bin dsp
fastboot flash logo.bin logo
BUT I cannot get this to work because I keep getting a "Image not signed or corrupt" error. I've confirmed I have the US retail single sim version (Addison).
I also cannot find a working version of RSD Lite that detects my phone. I've tried version 6.2.4.
Would anyone be able to help? I'd really appreciate it. I can get the bootloader up, but I cannot do anything else.

I used the procedure here and it worked for me.

Also if RSD isnt detecting your phone, ADB might not either.

I appreciate the reply. RSD doesn't detect, but ADB can. I can send fastboot commands via the bootloader, so I think drivers are OK. What got me in this mess was flashing the Chinese TWRP posted on the root guide here on XDA so I think the drivers are installed ok. I think it's a Windows thing.
I found that page you're referring to last night and read up on it. I found the retail US stock firmware image posted by another here on XDA and proceeded to go through the steps. After looking, the batch file immediately closed and did nothing. Then I went into the XML file and removed the m in mfastboot. After runnng manually, I found that it kept saying mfastboot.exe is not found. Then it went through every step as I've seen before, but every time a command was finished it would say "Image not signed or corrupt". I believe if I could somehow get RSD lite to work that I would be OK. I'd love to get this thing booting again.

OK, I found mfastboot.exe located here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...ng-mfastboot-exe-to-unbrick-motorola-t3203518) and had NO idea there was such a thing as mfastboot !
Unfortunately when running this, on all of these lines of mfastboot:
mfastboot flash gpt.bin partition
mfastboot flash bootloader.img bootloader
mfastoot flash NON-HLOS.bin modem
mfastboot flash fsg.bin fsg
mfastboot flash adspso.bin dsp
mfastboot flash logo.bin logo
I get "Image not signed or corrupt"
When I flash all of these, they go through OK:
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 oem oem.img
So I'm hoping this helps someone figure out what I'm doing wrong. Again, I'm just trying to get back to stock.

- You are restoring the firmware without wiping the device, i'd try fastboot erase userdata first before flashing the rest, could be worth a try.
- I get "Image not signed or corrupt" when flashing a modified kernel too, but it is flashed regardless.
- I got root with the chinese twrp, the others gave me bootloop.
Good luck.

I too have a freshly-bricked EU dual-SIM Z Play that gives "Image not signed or corrupt" errors when I try to flash recovery and boot. Seen by fastboot, but not by RSD.
edit: more of my saga is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/help/identifying-firmware-required-phone-t3517360/

yeahhh, i manage to flash my moto z play back to stock, the rom was bad or something i downloaded from here.

I had the complete restore section reversed when you saw it on my thread, someone pointed it out and it's been fixed now.
Edit: I see someone's done it here too.
You also don't need to restore fully, just do the restore for ota and it should be enough if you've not flashed over the other stuff.

well i forgot to boot and set up a pin before installing TWRP, soft bricked myself for hours, this thread helped me return to stock so i could set a pin so TWRP would work, THANK YOU!
also if anyone else ends up here, and is having trouble finding the US retail stock image, i used the one from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/addison/official/RETUS/

Is that an official signed image?
Can i use it to relock bootloader?
Thanks!

None of the images are signed and won't relock the bootloader.

Would this allow me to return to Marshmallow after sideloading a Nougat OTA, given I unlock my bootloader? I flashed a build from a different region (I think retbr or something) onto my Canadian Z Play, but the build number doesn't match what everyone else is getting from. Just looking to revert to Marshmallow to perform a proper update instead of impatiently sideloading an OTA.

Thank you. I've never had issues doing stuff like this before, but for some reason it scares the hell out of me with this phone. Maybe because I haven't had it for very long, lol. Downgraded to Marshmallow successfully. Hopefully I don't run into any issues in the future that would require an RMA, but out of all the phones I've had over the years, I've only had to RMA a Nexus 5 due to a problem with the screen.

Hi everyone. Is this guide is okay for reteu dual sim? And please point me if there is a firmware for reteu nougat. I softbrick my device and my imei is 0. I want to restore it please guide me as i am a noob in fastboot commands and steps. Thanks in advance

Is this finally the SIGNED stock firmware? I've been dying to have it since I know the unsigned won't allow you to relock the bootloader.

You'll never relock your bootloader , it's over and I can't understand why people think it makes a difference, moto has given you the unlocking key by asking for that key you are unlocked and unlock forever.
Read the unlocking agreement page from moto. You signed off on it.
You'll never ever see signed firmware from moto anyways , they keep them in house, all you'll ever see is unsigned firmware packages.

I want LOS14.1 on my phone, but it's better to keep on stock 7.1.1? Normally you are right, because it's stupid to change the rom just because the number (7.1.1 to 7.1.2).

Assuming you have fastboot installed on your pc
Download firmware and unzip to where you have fastboot
Open command prompt at fastboot location with firmware
type the following although I have marked lines that you should not use unless you have to as flashing wrong firmware can damage your device
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set Only required if you wish to relock bootloader - if not skip it
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin Do not use unless you want to repartition your device - incorrect file will damage your phone
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img Do not use unless you want to replace the bootloader - flashing wrong file will hard brick
fastboot flash logo logo.bin No need to flash if you are going to flash a custom rom after and have already flashed a modded version
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.img

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase userdata Will erase everything on internal storage but you need to do it
fastboot erase customize Not sure about this - might be for other device
fastboot erase clogo Not sure about this - might be for other device
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear Only required to relock bootloader if you used the very first command

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)
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/cedric/official/
If you have unlocked the bootloader it will always says your device is not secure unless you flash a modified boot image

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.

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

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

I follow the steps on this video

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
