Hello.
Couple months ago i started playing around with my p8 i unlocked bootloader flashed twrp make backup of rom (yes without a stock recovery) and i flash cm13.
And here is my problem i want to go back to stock i can easyli flash my stock rom from twrp from backup but then when i want to flash anything else for example another rom with lower android version it's gettong bootloop i even make full flash (every partiton from same update.app) but nothing still bootloop.
And here is strange part in custom rom i flashed supersu it worked great so i wanted it on my stock backuped rom what i'm able to flash and flashing supersu gives me nothing it booting normali not two or three times and after boot it doesn't see root.
Can you tell me where is the problem? I can still use phone with twrp and stock backup rom but i want go in lower android version and i can't.
Pleas help!
Thank you

Can someone please post here stock recovery.img for OPT im now on TWRP but i want to install H2OS OTA normally.
Thank you so much
You may have chosen to keep the twrp recovery on your device from beeing overwritten by the stock recovery. This is done in twrp by renameing the "/bin/recovery.sh" (afaik).
Before installation OTA update checks for all checksums of files it will patch. So you will not only need the stock recover but at least to replace the recovery.sh with the original one.
Much easier way is to flash 2.0.2 full (not the OTA!), flash 2.1 OTA, flash SU and reboot in one session from twrp . I have done this and it worked without a problem.
Just make sure your battery is fully charged before
I'm getting an updated binary error. Started getting it in TWRP after flashing a custom kernel. Could you post your stock recovery? Or the stock kernel? (preferably the latter I suppose)
I've tried digging into the full 2.0.1 and 2.1 ROMs to find them, but I can't track them down...
Yes,i need the stock recovery
Well I need stock recovery because of hydrogen OS hope someone have it..
All you need is recovery paparapapa ahahahah
I managed somehow to have back stock recovery
When i flashed TWRP and then Gapps for Hydrogen OS it asked me to stop stock recovery to flash or something so i press dont stop, and voila im back on stock recovery

Hi, i just got the moto g5 plus, i always have phones that from the moment i bought them they wouldn recive any updates, so i realy didnt care if unlocking the bootloader installing new recoverys will affect the OTA updates. So i have a couple of questions.
1- first i want to at least have a stock firmware just in case, but i cant figure out which one should i download from here
firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20G5%20Plus/Stock/
Before i always use sammobile.com and it was really easy to found a stock firmware from Argentina. My compilation number is: npns25.137-15-11 this means that i suppose to download that one XT1681-XT1683_POTTER_BRASIL_LATAM_MEXICO_7.0_NPN25.137-15_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip ?
2- it is possible to unlock the bootloader and root your phone without installing a new recovery? i was reading some post and when you change your recovery or you modify something the OTA update will stop working. they are some methods like the magisk but they seem i little bit too complex for me and i don't want to do it every time that a new update is available.
thanks for the help, and sorry for my English i am from Argentina.
1. yes, but any build will flash and run, so it doesn't really matter that much...
2. Nope. You need to flash TWRP in order to root. This is because the stock recovery will only flash signed images... You can use Magisk, after backing up a stock build. Anytime there is an OTA, just restore to that system image, Flash the original recovery via fastboot, and then take the OTA. Once you have it, flash TWRP again, and restore to your other build. Or just run a custom room like Lineage or RR, and this whole thing isn't really an issue anymore.

yeah i know i had a samsung galaxy s3 until now, and i always have cyanogen, slimrom or now lineage, but this is the first device that i have one that will get updates (at least 1 more :S) and i want to seize that
i will start downloading that file just in case
1- ok so unlocking the bootloader doesn't affect updates only when you modify files? when the update is installing is basically comparing the files that you have with the ones that you suppose to have and if there is something different it will fail? its something like that?
2-dumb question how do you do a full backup in the stock recovery there is no option no do a nandroid backup or it will appear after i just unlock the bootloader?
Hi Experts,
I've flashed TWRP and the stock rom posted into XDA with GAPPS included , everything is fine and working.
Now I want to disable TWRP and deploy the stock recovery image bacause I need to sell the phone and after an factory reset TWRP comes up, to me it's acceptable but for an simple user this can be annoying.
I was not able to find the factory recovery.img for Nubia Z17 to flash it. Do someone knows if it's possible ?
This can cause problems ? I don't want to lock the phone again I just want to deploy the stock recovery and let the phone with the actual ROM.
Any help will be appreciated.

I think you need to flash the "recovery.img" from the stock ROM to the phone.
And befor that flash the stock ROM
And I have to admit that I have not tried this but have also thought of doing it.
Let us know what happens.

Understood. So I need to flash the Chinese stock ROM without GAPPS and other stuffs.
I think maybe just flashing the Chinese stock ROM it will replace TWRP.
BUT in order to install GAPPS I MUST have TWRP right?
What I want is to flash everything to have the phone functional to sell to an simple end user, this means with PlayStore, GAPPs and without TWRP.
well flashing the chinese ROM will NOT replace TWRP. I believe I tried this once.
I would do the following:
0. keep TWRP
1. Flash the chinese stock ROM
2. Flash GAPPS depening on your customer
3. as a last thing flash the stock recovery image

understood, but how do I get the stock recovery image?
Take the Chinese Rom and open it with WINRAR or winzig.
At the top Level you'll find a recovery.img about 18mb in size.
I believe this is it.
Flash it with fastboot utility.
Cheers Thomas
winzig should be WINZIP
So I loved this phone long time ago, but after I got a new one, I decided to play with P9 Lite. I installed installed lineage, I had fun for a while, but I decided I want the stock soft once again. During 'rollback', something has happened and possibly bricked the phone. I forgot about it because I had some things to do in life, but now I came back to fix it...but I don't know how. It is still on a bootloop, but I can launch fastboot. I flashed some of twrp's out there, but I still cannot enter any of them. I can't use dload method, because it doesn't work either. Can anyone help me, please?
Try to go into the stock recovery , and if is possible do a cache wipe. Check if the bootloader is locked or not ( because after some operations it may be locked again ) and then try to flash a recovery in recovery and also in the Erecovery partitions.
i have same situation, flashed a lot of twrp, still cant enter none
Return back stock recoveries. I really don't think that TWRP will help you now. With stock recoveries reinstalled, try to flash B160/B161 (depending on if you have dual/single SIM) (you can choose pretty much any stock A6 version, but I think that B160/B161 is the best of all.). After a successful flash, a factory reset should start.. I think that you don't even need an unlocked bootloader or FRP.
NEVER EVER flash the rollback package two times in a row. And also, DO NOT flash Android 7 (B3xx/B5xx). Both of these actions will result in the need of DC Phoenix. Or even into a useless brick.
Hello I succeed in rooting my phone a few days ago but some moto fonctions doesn't work well (fingerprint,rotate,moto display stop each time)and I couldn't desinstall apps ans install theme icones while I was superuser.So I decide to restore stock and reinstall TWRP and supersu.But TWRP doesn't load after to start phone and I tried install many img with any problems (see OK all time) but Twrp menu never appears (maybe a pb due to Elementx install for rooting before? I don't now for the moment).I'm looking for......
What surprises me is the fact that I always have "status modified" on bootloader while it would be "official".And It is in yellow as when Twrp was installed.Restore stock doesn't erase all datas for custom recovery?Stock works normally.Did Twrp removed completely???Did you have an explanation for tis issue?
My stock firmware is which I downloaded from motorola website.I attempt factory reset,wipe cache etc .....nothing
I would try another method to restore (with 2 others firmware).

Maybe you flashed the wrong firmware. Flash this one with the guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...ck-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138/page99
Also this is the wrong forums to ask.
I am unable to report this. Please any moderator shift this thread

You can flash latest official firmware that is posted in second post to solve firmware related issues..
After flashing, you will not get official status back, it will remain modified..
To get official status back, you need to have OTA update, which is possible only when Motorola releases OREO or SECURITY PATCH, but currently no any method will work... (Also not sure about security update )
NEVER DOWNGRADE AND TAKE OTA UPDATE, IT WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
I forgot to precise I was under Android 6.0 (MM) but it 's frustrated I don't have a signature now.Ok I had to try to update to Androit 7.0 (Nougat) but it failed.I restore a stock and update it with OTA but it doesn't install it.
So I reinstall one more time but I flash partition and bootloader with one tuto of XDA even if it isn't advised.
I think install of Elementx has caused troubles because Update and Twrp install worked perfectly before.
I don't know what 's the problem
