I erased my OS and i need help! - Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers

I've been trying to downgrade from android 9 to android 8 (stock) and gave some bugs, I've been trying to sort it out and erased my OS
When I turn on the phone the boot image appears and I return to the bootloader screen.
When I try to reboot with the twrp it says "No OS Installed! Are you sure you want to reboot?"
Sorry grammatical errors, I'm using google translator.
If you can answer me in a more formal way, I thank you, because it is better to translate in google
Note: my phone is: XT-1922-5 and
to speak portuguese
I await an answer, thanks.

Reflash Android 9.0 stock to get it working again. The entire firmware. Then I can walk you though downgrading. You have to be very careful

did you flash the dnx and the ifwi also the droidboot for ze550ml?
This title is misleading. It's not a "how-to" thread. And it doesn't even belong to the general section, but rather in the questions section.

This MAY brick your phone. DO NOT USE you can unbrick with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-brick-soft-hard-bricked-zenfone-2-t3284256
OP be careful of what you do to your device. I would research it more before jumping into anything, because you do have a potential to brick the device.
Thanks

Why return to 5.0 só fast...is more easy wait for oficial ota of 6.0.1 and do adb sideload!
I want to downgrade as well, I've found several guides, but I'm afraid I'll brick my phone.
I saw in one place that sideloading the stock 5.0 firmware from the asus website could work... would this be a valid solution? Would it be as simple as sideload with adb the stock 5.0 firmware, if I'm in the 6.0 already?

Hi, I do not speak English very well, but I'll try.
First go to the website of Asus, and download the firmware .. 184 or this link (http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Ze...user.zip?_ga=1.147549438.850793534.1463019251) and put the external SD Card!!!
NOTE: If your bootloader is similar to the image (with the blue letters ..), you just need to step 3 of this my turorial
ht*tp://www*androidheadlines*com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/asus-zenfone-2-google-howto-1.jpg (remove "*" again^^)
1. Go to this page (https://www.techmesto.com/root-zenfone-2/) and follow the steps of the second method..
1.1 Download Z00A_WW_2.20.40.184 version (https://mega.co.nz/#F!k4MHiAgL!dVuOKeH3eokcwPSNI79ffw)
1.2 Download and extract FlashTools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3301263&d=1431011927)
1.3 Extract Z00A_WW_2.20.40.184_system_w_root.zip (for step 1.1) and put the "system.img" in the folder of FlashTools together with "boot.img", "droidboot.img" and "recovery.img"
2. Now follow the steps of the second method (https://www.techmesto.com/root-zenfone-2/), from step 7 to 11;
3. Also I was stuck in the bootloader after this procedure... BUT, you need to download this file (the first method): http://www.mediafire.com/download/v6m7n9j0gqins9b/CWM_Zenfone_2_Intel.zip;
3.1 And follow the steps from 1 to 9 (the first method): https://www.techmesto.com/root-zenfone-2/... EXCEPT: The steps include the root (you do not need the root ..)
3.2 When you are already in CWM recovery, only install the firmware 184 (of start.. of Asus) which is in the external SD Card ... and end ^^.
3.3 I recommend wipe data / factory after starting the device first time...

I got into boot loop, but I did factory reset, and everything is good as new!
The only weird thing... the Mail app (Asus email) is missing. I found somewhere the apk file, and I did a sideload of it, and it works. But if I check on the computer the Google Play store, it says that the app is incompatible with my device...

Bootloop is normal as seen on the tutorial.
I think that's normal since Asus will replace their default mail app to Gmail once MM final is release. same goes for my phone, Asus Mail doesn't come preinstalled.

Wasted two hours trying to figure how to combine the .bin files into system.img file and still didn't find it.
They were not combined automatically upon extracting them. Used Winrar and 7-zip.

bypass battery limit without root

Hi guys,could someone explain to me clearly how to get my battery level back to 100% on my galaxy note 7?
I would like to do everything without giving root permits. I have searched on the forum but sadly i couldn't find a step by step guide to help me.

I think you have to root once the update is on your device as the only way to remove it once it is on the device is to change the firmware.

no that's not true, you do not require root to flash firmware via odin..in fact if your already rooted doing so will unroot your device. but yes you need flash the previous firmware in odin to remove the charging killing update
the important part is keeping the OTA from happening again. most of the package diasablers i know of have been updated and dont work now.
there is an ADB method but the easiest way to prevent it is rooting but the OP doesnt want to root so he is going to ha e to research the other methods i mentioned to find something that works.
short if that get used re flashing the previous firnware over and ovet to get back full charging capability.

no you wont lose anything at all unless you factory reset...that will wipe your device.
that said sometimes a factory reset is needed after flashing in odin so i would move anything you want to keep to your ext SD card just in case then move it back after.
your English is fine my friend no worries!

What do you think about that?

Hope this helps to avoid 60% battery update.
Hi, I'm having a problem downgrading back to before the update. I have the FD version.
If I try to flash the bootloader in Odin, it tells me unsupport dev type and crashes. If i try to flash the twrp, it tells me custom OS installation is locked. What do I need to do? I am noob, never done this before. Please let me know what I need to do to fix this?

However, maybe it's not working for you, if you were already hit by an android security patch in the firmware you actually have. It differs depending from your country or provider specific version. But if you don't get the java.lang.SecurityException, all will be fine. Just try.

[DOWNGRADE] Android 8.1 to 8.0

Hello Guys,
First sry for my bad English im from Germany
Today i have downgraded my Google Pixel 2 XL 8.1 (DEZ. PATCH) to 8.0 (SEP. PATCH)
I know this isnt possible but i do it.
Here is what i do:
First i search here in the Forums a fix for the multitouch Bug since 8.1, i try all methods but nothing have work for me...
So i try to downgrade my Pixel 2 xl from 8.1 to 8.0 with the official Factory Image Files from Google but it isnt work for me because my Phone say (after i try the OTA Update via sideload) that i have already an newer Version of Android installed.
So what to do?
I Install the latest Factory Image from Google (8.1 Jan.Patch)
After the Install i stoped the First Start of my Phone and Go Back to bootloader, than i try to Lock my bootloader via ADB. After the Lock i See an Message in my Phone Like "there is noch System installed on your device, device cant Start" Or something Like that.
Now i Boot Back to bootloader and unlock my Phone again but that error stay there and my Phone will not Boot.
I think OK there noch System installed on my Phone now and maybe i can flash the factory Image from the Google Developer Site.
I downloaded the First Image File "8.0.0 (OPD1.170816.010, Sep. 2017)
Booted my Phone to bootloader and run the Script "flash-all.bat"
The installation finished without any errors and my Phone booted without any Problems.
I think "OK cant be" but i Go to settings and Check the Android Version i have installed, and i See im Back to Android 8.0.0
Ok

So, tell us how you're supposed to downgrade from 8.1 to 8.0? Especially since Google added safeguards to prevent this. Maybe I'm missing something, but to my knowledge it's not 'supposed' to be possible.

Yes. I don't know the details of Google's anti rollback measures, but I don't think they were meant to apply to unlocked bootloaders. Google allows bootloader unlock to be friendly to developers who probably want to test their apps on different firmware versions. What would be the point of locking them out of various firmwares? In fact, what's the point of an unlockable bootloader at all if you're going to still put restrictions on flashing?
The reason why the OP thought he needed to find out a clever downgrade method was because he was trying to use an OTA to downgrade. OTAs never allow downgrading, and I don't think they ever have. This is nothing new. The factory images, however, will always work as long as both "fastboot flashing unlock" and "fastboot flashing unlock_critical" have been performed beforehand with the latest version of fastboot.

The only reason why i open this thread is, that after i try to downgrade to 8.0 my devise go to bootloop, after i flash back to 8.1 it works fine...so with my post i downgraded to 8.0 and its still work fine, im now on 8.0 with nov patch, the only reason why i downgrade is the stupid Multitouch Bug in games, so im waiting for official fix by google

I erase the cache and free I reboot it went back to the bootloader screen. From that point I have been spending all day trying to get back to factory or at least trying to install any other rom with out any luck. It someone can help me out I will be more than happy to send a Starbucks card or something. I just got the phone,
I forgot to mention that when I try to use the and side load it says something about the e drive, like if there es no drive on my phone

Also, if you have twrp installed, you can flash the OTA zip that corresponds to your current OS version :good:
I do have twrp installed the problem is that I don’t have the zip on the phone to install the ota file.
Try with deceus Script (Just search for it) and select repair bootloop. It will download the factory Image and flash it on a and b partition then your phone will boot again. But your data will be lost :/
Ok., I will let you guys know thank you
Also, I forgot to mention that it looks like that I don’t have a OS installed ( twrp is telling me that every time i try to get out to the get out of the twrp menu. At this point i haven’t don’t anything mention in this post because I’m resetting my computer nd I’m installing right now the android sdk software.
You don't have to install the full Android SDK software for the job you're trying to do. You can download the latest Fastboot commands and ADB through Google, or even XDA(somewhere).
I've installed adb to my Windows commands, so once in recovery, when I need a file, I just "adb push file.zip /sdcard/".
No worries though. You'll be back up and running. ?
Edit: Also, if you still have data on your phone, you can check using the file explorer on TWRP. If you do, you can adb pull anything you want to keep.
@rectangularspace Link to the standalone platform tools HERE. This is all you need.
Guys. It's working now. I follow the instructions and when I execute the batch I notice that it was missing some files but it did worked, I was able to start over. One thing I notice is that play store was not updating the apps , I had to reboot a couple of times even force stop play store and it looks like is working. I was gonna ask, it's been a long time since I was in Android, if I decide to update to os 9 (pie) if I don't like it, can I downgrade to any previous OS?

Yes, but going down from 9 to 8 will cause/require a data wipe.

Why did you decide to install Oreo?? There will be no further security or functionality updates for 8.1. The next monthly update to Pie should be the first Monday of next month (October 1st) if you don't get a OTA nag before then.
I have the update available to install on my settings. But what I'm looking for is to start over on rooting my pixel 2 xl. But after last experience I'm a little conservative when it comes to mess with the phone. I'm reading right now the post where it says to do the critical unlock for the phone but I don't know witch bootloader version I have. Can you guys help me out
I have tmz10n version on my bootloader. It means that I need to do the critical unlock? By the way I did already unlock my bootloader and i Haven lock it again. And I think at some point when I was having trouble with my phone to put it back to run I did also the critical unlock process.

You only need to do the unlock process one time, BUT there are two separate unlock commands which include unlock_critical. If in doubt you can use fastboot device-info or getvar to check the current status. Make sure you are using the latest version of the platform tools I linked to above. One word of caution... don't EVER re-lock your bootloader or you WILL run into problems. Even if you are returning the phone to Google for RMA you do not need to re-lock it.
My bad, after unlock my bootloader I haven't look back again. So it is unlock right now. Thank you for advised. For what I read the only way to unlock it it will be by running the command fastboot right? If I upgrade to pie using the upgrade available in my settings right now, it will not lock the bootloader right?

Yes, once you have successfully unlocked the phone in fastboot using the two separate commands, you will never have to do it again, AND flashing anything will not re-lock the bootloader. Please read over Nathan's GUIDE HERE to confirm you have done this correctly (and completely). Once this is done you can flash OTA's , full Google images, custom roms, etc. Lastly, if you are properly unlocked you cannot brick your phone. No matter how bad it gets, you will always have a path to restore the phone to it's original state. Don't hesitate to take the OTA being offered on your phone. It will take you to 9.0 without losing data or locking anything. :good:

Hello,
The Xiaomi 9 SE Global Unlocked of my girlfriend was restarting a lot (restart loop) and I tried to flash a ROM but I accidentaly flashed and locked the mobile on a "MIUI version that can´t be installed on this device" (grus_global_images_V12.0.2.0.QFBMIXM_20200910.0000.00_10.0_global)
The problem is the phone was wiped and I cant unlock the phone now. What to do? I can´t flash another ROM or unlock it and I just have access to Recovery Mode and Fastboot mode.
Please any help would be greatly appreciated.
It´s 4 am where I live and I´ll go to bed... But Will read here as soon as I´m awake. Thanks a lot in advance.
Let me continue my story... I still need help.
I contacted an authorized and he helped me to EDL a flashed version and I reinstalled the MIUI 12.0.2 Global stable on the phone.
But the phone is still TURNING OFF BY ITSELF (this was the reason because I tried flashing it on the first place). I don´t know the cause but it does not seems to be a faulty battery. I heard the phone has Anti RollBack protection. Is it right?
So I need help on how to procced. I would like to RollBack it to MIUI 11 where I didn´t had this problems...
Unfortunately you can NEVER go back once you flash a ROM on Xiaomi devices. However that doesn't prevent you from flashing custom ROMs.
Though you still need to be careful, because once flashed there is no going back.
I recommend testing the ROM on an emulator before flashing it. Here is how.
Also don't forget to check for your rollback protection index and the ROM's index before flashing.
