soft bricked moving from pie to 10. - Moto G7 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys
I bricked my phone because I did something wrong. I need help.
I have a rooted Moto g7 (river) running android pie.
I decided to upgrade it to android 10.
1. I downloaded the latest android 10 version from:
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai
mirrors.lolinet.com
2. created new C:\adb2021 folder in laptop
obtained latest adb/fastboot from
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
unziped the zip contents into the new C:\adb2021
3. Connected by cable and turned on phone
4. In a CMD prompt on W10 went to in C:\adb2021
5. adb reboot bootloader
was successful
6. I then ran
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin

fastboot reboot
Problem:
The phone rebooted but is stuck on the
"your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" screen.
Rebooting just brings me back to this same screen.
I can get to the Android Recovery screens but don't know what to do there.
The fastboot commands I listed above were originally designed for installing android 9. I now see I should have included fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10
When in the recovery screen "Flastboot Flash mode" I tried to issue from the laptop
C:\ADB2021>adb reboot bootloader
I get
error: no devices/emulators found
Please help. This is my main phone.
How do I recover?
Thanks.

I tried factory reset. And then reboot but it still only goes to the "this device is unlocked....." and stays there.
I really need help.

Model XT1562
Edit, I have motorola device manager installed, both rsd lite and verizon wireless softwear upgrade cannot detect phone.
If you were flashing the most up to date firmware then you definitely missed a couple of sparsechunks. Use fastboot to flash everything (check flashfile.xml for proper fastboot commands)

Motorola G4 Play XT1607 Stock ROM request and how to install

I installed and rooted with TWRP in June. I thought it just installs updates via bootloader, but it needs stock recovery. So, I'm stuck with a update waiting, and it's required to update to Naugat. I tried installing Naugat from a zip, but I kept getting errors. Help?

Extract the file where you have twrp copy. So you dont have to install any driver.
Then run command prompt type "fastboot devices"
It will show som3 id if you device should be detected. Befor doing this you must be in bootloader state

Restore G5 Plus to Stock (But Rooted) Questions

My questions are at bottom.
Context:
I recently tried to go back to my stock from lineageos. I successfully did it through this youtube video but I've run into a couple of problems.
Youtube Video Titled: MOTO G5 PLUS STOCK ROM FLASHING | UNBRICK/UNROOT MOTO G5 PLUS
(I'm not allowed to post links)
I used firmware NPN25.137-35
after I flashed twrp, no-verity-check and magisk v14
After mistakenly tried to apply an OTA update(I know better now) my phone always boots into recovery. I discovered this when the updated tried to restart to install. I have to boot to bootloader and press the power button when the selection is on "start". I'm not sure if the OTA had anything to do with that.
The fastboot commands I used where this to install the stock ROM
Code:
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 system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
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
Questions:
1. If I want to download the stock image directly from the "firmware.center" which one do I choose and how do I know? There are 9 of them..
2. Do I ever need to unlock my bootloader again or is that a one time thing?
3. Do those fastboot commands and the stock image bring my moto g5 plus back to the way it was completely when I unpackaged it (minus unlocked bootloader)?
4. Can I run those fastboot commands without unzipping the stock *.xml.zip?
5. Where did these commands come from? Is it common knowledge that they work? Or is a fastboot sequence provided by motorola?
6. Does "just" attempting an OTA update mess stuff up on a rooted android?

Moto G7 hardbrick after stock firmare flash

Hi, my MOTO G7 is bricked, it wont start, not even for the bootloader, even if i hold the power button for 10 seconds, it just doesnt work, it makes a sound when i plug it in the pc, and thats it.
i unlocked bootloader successfuly and it was working fine, i was trying to root the phone using magisk, as one thread in this forum suggested, it wouldnt work, so i decided to flash the stock rom, because the boot.img wasnt working properly.
i downloaded my correct version for my device "OPENCL" on the lolinet webpage that was posted in this forum
and i installed it using the following commands in fastboot:
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

it should have worked, but when i rebooted the phone, it was bricked.
did i miss a step? how can i unbrick it ? i havent been able to find anything online.
Thanks in advance
Are you able to access bootloader by press and hold Vol - while powering on?
Try RETAIL ROM and see the result
Also, try RSDlite to flash if it can recognize your phone

[Guide](XT-1635-02) Relock bootloader with ID as NA/BAD Key removed on the first boot

Hello Folks,
To be honest i wanted to remove the ID : NA on the first boot as i wanted to run Google Pay to work as it doesn't work on Unlocked bootloader.
So after a lot of research and with the help of a fellow XDA member i could lock the booloader with CTS showing as Pass
I have done the method myself and it worked
You need to be on unlocked bootloader
The steps i did :
1. Download the rom from this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/development/rom-nov-patch-npns26-118-22-2-8-t3717037
2. Boot in to TWRP
3. Wipe everything except internal storage
4. Flash the above rom via TWRP
5. Boot and dont set up any security or account
6. Enable Developer options
7. In developer options enable Allow OEM unlocking
8. Now boot to fastboot mode
9. Download the latest OREO RAW zip from the below links
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/addison/official/RETAIL/
Run the below commands once the device is in fastboot mode (OREO only)
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
