How do I upgrade to official Oreo build - Moto G5 Questions & Answers

I have XT1677 on retus channel. I see the official Oreo build is already launched, but not showing up when I try to manually check for updates.

Is there a Oreo stock rom that I can flash ?

Yes there is firmware available for your device both by OTA method and fastboot method just do it's as you want.

Thanks. On checking for updates, it says you have the latest software, which is weird/wrong (since Oreo is already out).
Never mind I installed the Oreo ROM from - https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/stock-upgrade-to-official-stock-oreo-8-t3823598

Honor 8 Pro C636 Oreo Beta

hi i have updated to oreo beta DUK-L09 8.0.0.321 (C636log) from the files listed in firmware finder.

Now I want to downgrade back to nougat.
I saw another C636 file which looks like the rollback package, "This update will roll back your phone's operating system to Android 7.0 (EMUI 5.1)."

When I try to use dload method, it fails at 5%, is there a nocheck recovery for oreo to help me flash back to nougat? Or is there any other way to flash the rollback pacake?
Thanks!
Here.

And: follow guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/how-to/stf-l09c432-how-to-install-oreo-h9-t3707729 (it's similar to our device) and it has rollback guide.
You should be good to go to do a regular update with this recovery

why do you want to go back? are there any major bugs with the beta?
Bro. Going back to nougat from oreo is not yet available for this device. Google has changed the structure of all the partitions in oreo. So, until the company releases an official rollback package, you are stuck with it. I flashed the Oreo package after registering for the Beta testing version. I am using this version without any problem. I tried to call the call centre but even they are not aware about any roll back package.....

the new public releases packages work update via choose package update in system update?
you should receive update via OTA, if not then you can instal with choose package, but put downloaded rom in "downloaded_rom" folder in root of the memory

You don't need to root your phone to get the update. There are two ways you can get the update.
1. Wait for OTA update to show up on your device.
2. download the update from this URL (https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/begonia/) make a "downlaoded_rom" folder on your phone root directory, place the update file in. and follow these steps.
a. About phone > system update > tap logo 10 times.
b. click on 3 dotted menu on top right. choose update package, select the downloaded file you just put in the downladoed_rom folder. let the phone do its work. enjoy the update.
it is recommended that you at least have a 60% charge available before proceeding.

How to install Q roms on a device with P fw and TWRP installed? (SM-G960F)

Hello friends
I'm trying to flash custom Q roms in TWRP on my S9 (SM-G960F), but have received the same error message for any Q rom:
ERROR:
Vendor image on the device
is NOT compatible
Expected Android 10 vendor
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've only been able to successfully flash P roms, namely the Pie-based LightRom.
Based on the error message, it seems I need to update the firmware to Q before installing custom Q roms?
I've also seen some roms note installation requirements like "ROM Firmware Required: OneUI 2.x", which is new to me (have not seen a TW/OneUI ver requirement for roms I've used on S4, S7, N8).
May I ask someone to explain the steps required to install Q roms (eg, Havoc-OS) coming from P firmware? There seems to be some assumptions in most install instructions I'm not aware of, maybe since I am on older FW. (I am asking here, since I did not find instructions in any of the Q roms I tried)
So far, all I have done to the phone since unboxing it was to install TWRP 3.4.0, following the official guide for Exynos S9.
I am guessing I need to download latest official firmware image from sammobile or something for my device, and flash it in Odin. Is this correct?
If so, can someone explain the steps so that I can have latest FW for my device while maintaining TWRP and not bricking the device?
Thank you for your help
Extra info
(Snapshot from LightRom rom)
One UI version: 1.0
Android version: 9

UPDATE:
I installed latest firmware from Sammobile, flashed it through Odin following their instructions, reinstalled TWRP, and am now able to flash Q roms.
For those who have stock rom < Q, I would suggest updating firmware through OTA before flashing TWRP. If you cannot OTA, download the latest firmware from Sammobile and flash it through Odin following their instructions, then flash TWRP, then you can flash Q roms.
So:
Update firmware through OTA or via Odin with latest firmware from Sammobile.
Flash TWRP
Flash whatever rom you want.

Question From EU OOS12 to Global OOS12

I am on c48 EU rom how to flash the global Rom
My device is LE2123 non rooted
Just download the stable full update via Oxygen Updater and install it. Works fine. Keep in mind to avoid updating to India version from eu/global. It is not stable.
I, and several others, who have EU (LE2123) versions had updated to the India version C60, however, we are not able to update (OTA) to C61.
Previously, on OnePlus phones when flashing other firmwares from other regions you would still be able to continue getting updates for that region. But with these latest OOS12 firmwares that might not be the case. So keep this in mind before changing regions.
Mine eu on c60 in worked like crap. Camera issues, overheating, bloatware installed... That was not a good move. Had to revert back to Oxygen 11 and move updates to global.
Try this : downgrade to region specific Android 11 ( IN/NA/EU ) and after that you will recieve ota. I personally downgraded to 11 ( GLOBAL ) ( i hasve eu version ) and i recieved c61 OTA.
Yep, did the same. C6Q global runns pretty good (not as good as Oxygen 11, I hate new UI, but it's quite good).
If I downgrade, I lose my data and my banking apps are running. Can't I download the full zip from global and import it via local update when its work lose my data ?

Thanks for the feedback. Few questions if you don't mind:
You have EU model (LE2123) and have successfully update C61 global firmware (LE2125)?
Did you flash the C61 global OTA update manually? I mean by downloading the OTA zip and flash it using local update? Or did it update by checking new updates using the normal way?
I understand that you switched to global using the OOS11 downgrade zip, so you had global firmware since OOS11 then upgraded to OOS12 (still global), does the about device Model show as LE2123 or LE2125?
1. Yes
2. No, did it via incremental update using system update app. First I downgraded using msm tool to global Oxygen 11, then followed all updates as far as cyq using system update app. Then I performed full wipe just to be sure all updates went well.
3. It still shows as 2123. No issues anyway (except red cable program from OnePlus - when I try to connect my device it shows wrong area, but I don't care ).

How do I update starlte firmware for LineageOS 20?

I've flashed LineageOS 15.1 immediately since I bought this phone (starlte) in 2018 or 2019. Now I want to upgrade to LineageOS 20.0 but it has the following notice:
Warning: Before following these instructions please ensure that the device is currently using Android 10 firmware.
If the vendor provided multiple updates for that version, e.g. security updates, make sure you are on the latest!
If your current installation is newer or older than Android 10, please upgrade or downgrade to the required version before proceeding (guides can be found on the internet!).

I have searched all over the internet for guides how to do it and I have no idea. Would temporarly flashing to LineageOS17.1 (Android 10) upgrade the firmware? Or do I need to flash official OS image? Or something else? I have no idea, things changed so much since early Android.
Android is the ROM. firmware is the baseband/modem what samsung calls CP core processor. custom ROM won't upgrade firmware, this has to be done by flashing full official ROM/firmware BL+AP+CP+CSC from Odin3.
OK thanks. Looks like this thread has all that i need https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...as-available-oxm-for-sm-g960f-models.3765015/
