Moto G5 XT1677 latest firmware

Does anyone have the latest firmware of Moto G5?
I have recently Bricked my device and cannot flash the stock firmware because of bootloader downgrade issue. I have the August security patch installed. Please provide that or newer version.

what actually happened to your phone

Bro the download link is below but you need paid membership
https://easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=browse&b=category&id=25905

I don't know why that specific file needs a paid membership and why that is the only website to host that file
you said that firmware or newer, would you like the November security patch
NPP25.137-93

Moto G5 XT1677 - OTA not working

I had flashed stock rom on my Moto G5 XT1677. So it is now on retus channel, with Nov 2017 security patch. However, I see March 2018 patch is already out, but when I check on my phone, it says your software is up to date. How do I fix this ?

My baseband has a string INDIADSDS_CUST, so probably it was retin.
Is there a retin stock rom available somewhere which I can use.

OTAs work on all stock rom firmware
Just because you are not receiving an ota doesn't mean its not working - It means it's not available in your country or for your variant
Just because an ota is available in one country doesn't mean its available in another country or for every variant of a device

Thanks for the detailed explanation. However, as I explained in the first post, I have the stock rom retus, and retus has already released April 2018 security patch. My phone doesn't show it, and is stuck on Nov 2017 patch. How do I identify, if my phone is not eligible, or if there is some other issue.
I had flashed the stock firmware from - https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto G5/Stock/XT1677/
Is there any other stock rom that works ?

Are you located in the country to which the firmware you are using is from? If not you may not get the update - you could try using a vpn to that country
Also the device variant you are using may not have that update available
Eg the XT1675 may have the update available and the XT1677 doesn't

Well after I flashed the stock ROM, my software channel changed to retus (earlier was retin). I tried US VPNs as well, but still no updates. retin has already released Mar 2018 security patch, which my phone is not receiving - https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/in/ei/Solution/MS127237
Hence, is there a way to switch the channel to retin from retus, or is there a stock rom for retin which I can use. Thank you.

It doesn't matter what channel you are on - that's only part of the process
There are also different varients of the device - for example the UK is XT1675
Just because you flashed the retus firmware doesn't mean you will get updates if there is no update for your variant
You would have to flash a different varients firmware manually (this may cause issues with band frequencies)

Thanks everyone. I manually applied all OTA patches as described in post - https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/cedric-ota-archive-t3795275

The update is rolling out slowly as I am also having the same device. But you can update it using lenovo moto smart assistant, as it will update your mobile.

I just tried to update it through that software, it said "No upgrade task".
One more thing, can the retail build NPPS25.137-93-2-5 be flashed on top of amzin build no. NPPS25.137-93-12? and after that the oreo zip? as these files are available for retail channel but not for amzin.

Is this ROM official? OPS72.76-12-25

Hi XDA, I received an open-box Z2 Play from a China seller.
Is this ROM official: OPS72.76-12-25?
Software channel: retcn
Concerned of keyloggers and security OTA updates (currently on 1 June 2018).
Thank you!

Technically, Yeah it is Official Stock ROM!
Make sure to check if the boot-loader is locked and if your device is certified!
***You do have OTA Updates right? the latest one is of October!***

Thanks for your reply.
I performed a factory reset and Google Play (with Play Protect) remains installed. Is that what you mean by "certified"? However I am wondering why this Chinese model (retcn) has Google Play in the first place.
The OTA scan in tsettings menu says my June 2018 security patch is up to date. Is my Chinese "software channel" to blame?
