Android Pay and unlocked Moto G5+ - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

I bought my G5+ with unlocked bootloader, gone stock through fastboot. Still Anadroid Pay won't work cuz of the unlock. I have unlocked bootloader on my other Moto X Play with stock MM rom and it works smoothly. Any clue?

G5+ doesn't have a nfc in it. Android pay is not supposed to work in it, unlocked or not.

Of course it does have nfc, mine is 3/32 but im asking about unlock and android pay

Android pay opens if you bypass safety net, but the NFC won't work, unless you have the NFC model (I believe it is the Indian model)

Sorry, my bad. I was thinking about the US model which I have. If you cannot relock the bootloader, I believe your option is to use Magisk to bypass safetynet check.

Hi there. Just one question that can't let me alone, can i flash this if my phone is from another region? The model i have is the XT1527, i unlocked the bootloader, but i prefer to use the Tmobile version, as i have it with a moto x 2nd gen.
My phone is 4g LTE of course, but the question that if other region can be flashed is not clear to me... hope you can help me if you know anything about it, thanks.

it should work if hardware is compatible.....now they have lollipo 5.1 just uploaded
...i dont'n know about wifi and network signal....but if you have unlocked your bootloader you can always flash original firmware back (make sure is availble as xml file)
Help, please.
Should I flash this like any other ROM? I live in Colombia, would that affect the cellphone networks or anything? I have the XT1527.
so flashing t-mobile would enable wifi calling?

How to relock bootloader on Moto G4 1625

I rooted my G4 on 6.0 Now just flash back to stock rom and upgrade to 7.0 Build NPJ25.93-14. I also did "fastboot oem lock" to lock the bootloader. But it still comes up when I restart my phone.
Anyone has any idea how I can remove that unlocked bootloader. Now I can not use android pay for my Amex offer now.
What i had to do to get the bootloader to relock was to reinstall the stock firmware again. the worst part is, that the one that was from the Moto factory image site didnt work for me, so i had to use this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=312978532265364350
Keep in mind that this will erase everything on the device, so make sure to backup your data.
just do this manually

Im not certain, but would assume no. that being said however, it looks like Moto made all G4 and G4+ varients use the same software, with the exception of the G4 Play. If you do decide to try this, dont flash the bootloader, gpt, NON-HLOS, and fsg, so that going back wont be too painful.

Can confirm that the above ROM works with my Moto G5 XT1675 (UK), I flashed this and was (finally!) able to re-lock the phone's bootloader.
Has anyone tried this on the 3gb/16gb dual SIM variant
ROM works for X1676 2/16, but bootloader isn't able to lock
Nice! Though I have used firmware from the firmware centre and have managed to relock the bootloader....
people what about motoG5 xt1677
hello, it works on xt1671, I used it to update my phone (without erase any data) and it works, it's curious that the software channel is still the same that I ever had, tigco, that means Tigo Colombia (i'm from Colombia).

How do I lock the bootloader with this update? I tried yesterday but couldn't do it, got the bad key message.
EDIT: Nevermind, today at work I was able to lock it. Hopefully I'll be able to get OTA updates.

Unlock tethering how?

I have unlocked bootloader. Now I need to unlock the tethering. Apparently it is done by editing the build prop. Instructions will be appreciated.
BTW I had rooted the phone with the Tool kit, the camera had stopped working, so I reinstalled the OEM ROM November update, now the root and TWRP are gone and the camera is working again..
TIA

Tethering is down to your carrier, some allow it others block it, the phone itself allows tethering natively, or have I misunderstood your question.
It depends entirely on how the carrier is restricting tethering... if they doing by MAC/traffic analysis there is nothing you can do. If they are doing it by just the provisioning flag, you can edit your build.prop and change "net.tethering.noprovisioning" to true. Then may need to change make a change from a su terminal shell, "settings put global tether_dun_required 0". But again, this all depends on how your carrier is blocking tethering.
Thanks Acejavelin. That's exactly the info I was looking for.
I don't see a "net.tethering.noprovisioning" line in the build prop. Should I insert the line? Any specific location in the build prop? Should the line read "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true"
TIA

Yes, just add it at the bottom, the order isnt important.
Got the tethering to work. But it reverted back when I tried to relock the bootloader and installed the stock ROM. Checked the build.prop sure enough the added line vanished. Is there a way to make it stick?

You mean to relock with a modified system file? No. Even if you found a way to lock the bootloader with a modified file, it would then fail to boot due to other security measures in Linux.
Thanks Ace. Not savvy enough to understand what you mean. But this is what I did -
1. Use the following relock commands -
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem lock
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 boot boot.img
fastboot oem lock
2. Then reflashed the stock ROM using -
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 erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
Both processes are from other posts here in XDA.

The process of writing system sparce chunks over-write your changes... You can't have a modified build.prop and a locked bootloader. I don't know how to be more clear.
Thanks again Ace! Now I got it. Only reason to relock was to get the OTA updates. I can live without it. I have a question - Since the sparce chuncks overwrite the changes wouldn't installing updates via TWRP or fastboot also overwrite the build.prop changes? Sorry to be a pain but I am learning.

Having an unlocked bootloader only does not stop OTA updates, but the OTA scrupt makes several checks and I know one of them if build.prop file, the OTA will fail even if that is the only change you have made.
OTA's can only be installed in a PURELY stock device, stock recovery and stock /system partition, other than that the bootloader locked/unlocked status is not relevant. Your only real choice here is to return to stock, accept the OTA, then make the change again.

Thanks again Ace! I think instead of returning to stock every time for OTA update it will be simpler to do ZIP updates when they are made available here at XDA. Having the modified build.prop is more useful to me.

What do you mean "AT&T blocker"? Don't most AT&T plans include tethering?
And will it work? Maybe, depends how they are enforcing it.
I have buyed a straight talk sim, it has 3 options att/virgin/tmobile and i choose att but when i went to use tehering it said "account not setup for mobile hotspot". But problem solved rooting the g5s plus and editing the file system/build.prop it works perfect. Thx a lot

What error you got,if you got required signed images then you can get it from here.
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/
If you are following guides from XDA then most probably its for relocking bl on nougat.
Now the nougat firmware had 5 sparsechuck files form 0-4 whereas on Oreo firmware there are 9 sparsechunks from 0-8. Make sure you are flash 0-8 after fastbook oem lock command or you will get an error that says that the system image/oem image not signed.
Hope this helps
I usues that's commands:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem lock
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
