If sideloading updates/taking OTAs, then yes, it has to be sequential.
If flashing the firmware itself, no.

Are you trying to update to Oreo? You could just flash the firmware to your phone.

Stock and Update

I have recently flashed Stock Firmware for moto g5 ( XT1677 ) how to get updates after that?
The bootloader is unlocked.
Can anyone suggest a way?
I'm quite sure it will run into a bootloop if you install an ota update while the bootloader is unlocked.
No, an unlocked bootloader will not broke ota, it will update without any problems
Still, my security patch level is in January 2017 amzn variant, I think its August patch running on... Can anyone suggest how to update to that?

[Request] Stock ROM 7.1.1 December Patch

Hi! Does anyone have the full stock 7.1.1 ROM with the december patch? I want to return to stock, thanks
Look into the threads, learn to search for God's sake!
There are quite a few posts linking to sites hosting them. Had to miss
Done that and can't find it. If you have the link, pls post it. Thanks

You'll get OTAs and will be able to install december patch.
Is the latest patch December 2017? So no security updates for 3 months already?

Thx, I thought there was something wrong with my phone for a while there. What the heck are Moto doing?? We used to get security updates every month.

Downgrade Security version

Guys, currently I'm on October 1st, 2018 Security Patch. I have the system image of April 1st, 2018 for flashing through fastboot, both android 8.0.0.
If I flash it, will my phone get stuck in bootloop or will it work?
My last phone got hardbricked because I unintentionally flashed android 6 Marshmallow after updating to Nougat, so now I'm afraid of hardbricking my new smartphone just because of the security patch.
Please someone give me an advise. (If there would be a link for a system image of october 2018 I'd appreciate haha)
My device was on Oct security before I unlocked it, I am now on the stock April patch firmware with no issues. However, I wish to relock my bootloader now and this is not possible because there is no later firmware than April available. When trying to lock, it fails with security downgrade.

Should be fine, I am on OPSS27.76-12-25 which is April. The October patch was on my device before unlocked.
Although there is an extra S in this one. Mine is OPS27.
Could you show where the junior shared the link?.

Sorry, he didn't share on the forum yet, however it's in his afh. He took from the last link I shared here.
If you pay attention to the image below, which is my smartphone settings, the version has 2 "S", and it's the stock one. I've never unlocked this phone. So it's okay, the october patch has the second S.

I see, so the other S could be something with the new security patch. Unless we have different Z2p. Mine is UK one, but I am sure I read somewhere that there is only one line of firmware for this device, unlike my G5 plus before this that had several versions of the G5 plus.
Yours is Brazil retail mine is Vodafone UK which is a different software Chanel. But the device is same I am sure.
