Hey, I'm new in here, but I have a question. I was a soak tester and I got stuck on NPN26.118-10. After doing some research, I unlocked my bootloader and put the stock firmware, the version 7.0. I've received all the updates following this version but it got stuck again on the same soak version. Can someone help me, please?
This should help:

If you are still stuck, can you export your gpt.bin and bootloader.img for me?

Hey guys, I've been facing this issue for a while now and haven't been able to figure it out. On one screen, under diagnostics I find a meagre which tells me I have an update available for my device, where as on the other it tells me I'm up to date. Currently I'm running 5.0.2 My device is rooted and bootloader is unlocked. Have I in the process of trying to unlock my boot loader messed something up? Is there a place where I can get the latest firmware for my Indian Compact to flash using the software??
Thanks in advance

Sony updates won't work with unlocked bl. You'll have to use Flashtool/Xperifirm, or relock bl, then update.
Flashtool homepage here - http://www.flashtool.net/ Xperifirm is integrated in newer versions. Download fw with Xperifirm, then flash with Flashtool
Hello there!
I have a locked H815 and I've had many issues with it, especially when I upgraded to 6.0 and V20D. I've got it back from repairs and it's been downgraded to Android 5.1.
I saw that it's ok to use LGUP and flash 5.1 and 6.0 firmwares and that doesn't require an unlocked bootloader nor root.
Now, I want to ask if I unlock my bootloader, will I still be able to receive OTA updates? Or updates through LG Bridge?
Also, if I install a custom ROM right now, will I be able to successfully flash the stock firmwares and have the phone as it was just with an unlocked bootloader?
Thanks!

I intend to buy the chinese variant XT1635-03 at Gearbest. Is it possible to flash the XT1635-02 rom on it or will I be stuck with the chinese rom? If that is possible, would I receive the OTA updates?
You can flash the every rom you like i have the Chinese version and i flashed the Russian rom on it you just need to unlock your bootloader

Thank you very much. Your answer was decisive for my decision on buying the device, and I think the chinese version comes already with the bootloader unlocked.

It's not a big deal, as long as I can flash the latest roms.

Sorry to bother again, but did you flash the entire rom? I read at other thread that it is dangerous to flash modem, fsg and bootloader from another variant.

I read on another thread that he flashed a -02 firmware without the modem files and no partition wipe (64 vs 32 GB).
Is there a full "HowTo" to go from XT1635-03 Dual-SIM to a XT1635-02 Firmware? Of course, Dual-SIM should still work afterwards. OTA will not work in any way, right?
Are there custom Roms which can be used on the XT1635-03 ?
Thanks
i have a problem

I can not unlock my bootloader with the code of the bike my pc does not even recognize the device in fastboot, it only recognizes as an idle device called fastboot addison s. you know what to do?
Any progress to what can be done with the chinese moto z play?
Hi,
I got Moto Z from gearbest too and it also comes with ADDISON_CHINA_CUST image.
I was able to unlock bootloader with 'fastboot flashing unlock' and then I flashed it to retail 7.0 (via fastboot), then updated successfully to 7.1 (via adb sideload).
Unfortunately it still shows retcn channel and ADDISON_CHINA_CUST as baseband.
Is there any way to change it too?
Thanks!

To be short: no, there is no pracical way to change the software channel and modem version (they are tightened to hardware)
I do no think you receive any OTA but if so do not install them

Thanks for your reply! Sounds like buying a phone from gearbest is not a good idea if you want to receive OTAs and stay with official ROM.
One more thing: after I updated the phone to 7.1 it shows during startup 'ID: bad key' (apart from 'Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted'.).
When being flashed, it also returned:
writing 'boot'...
(bootloader) Image signed with key bad key
and
writing 'recovery...
(bootloader) Image signed with key bad key
Btw, maybe it's a stupid question, but is it justified to consider retcn channel and modem version (ADDISON_CHINA_CUST) as kind of backdoor? It still not official software (or at least the latter)...

Hi,
I received a Moto Z Play from Banggood as exchange for another phone under warranty.
I unlocked the bootloader, and via fastboot with RSD lite I updated to nougat 7.1.1
but the chineese version fot XT1635-03. I got it from here :https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/addison_cn/RETCN/
This rom is much worse than the original one, it's a chineese rom with only chineese and english language, no play store, no googleapps, no chrome...
At this time, I don't find the way to flash another Rom.
edit: repaired flashing another 7.1.1 custom rom

If you install the Verizon version your device will update automatically
My bootloader was already unlocked when I got it from banggood, which is similar to gearbest.
Install this via rsd lite and you will have updates via ota:

Anyone know if it's possible to lock the bootloader of -03 using -01/-02 ROM?
Well I bought my zenfone 2 it's been 1 year ago, and on the end of 2016 I rooted it because I don't had hope on 6.0.1 update anymore since it was full of bugs. I still on 5.0 and now I want to update to 6.0.1 but I don't know how. My bootloader is unlocked and I have TWRP I was planning on flash the stock recovery and then push the update but there is the problem. Can I update with unlocked bootloader? Or I'll need to lock it again then update? I really can't bare with the 5.0 firmware anymore and I need to update. But since I don't have a constant access to a computer I don't want to brick my phone.
Yes, I tried search for tutorials online but all I get is how to unlock bootloader on zenfone 2 on the 6.0 firmware and how to root it..but I don't get none answer to my question so I hope someone here can help me.

flash stock bootloader LP( boot, ifwi, recovery, fastboot). factory reset device. unlock bootloader with official app. and sideload latest MM. later on flash twrp.
Been trying to unlock my bootloader to no avail, but on the other hand, I can't seem to find a stock Nougat rom that I can install on stock recovery. Should I just return this phone, get a new one and obtain unlock code before updating to Oreo? Or is there any way to downgrade back to Nougat on locked bootloader?
Thanks.
I think it's possible with hisuite.

There is service rom that will flash with locked boooader, and one that is nougat. But it will leave you with strange build number. But should allow for dc-unlocker to read your code.
I was unaware that some trouble with reading the code in Oreo existed. But just got confirmation in other thread that service rom roll back helped
Thanks everyone, I ended up returning the phone and getting a new one. Read bootloader code from nougat, updated to oreo and unlocked everything no probs.
