I recently got my Moto Z2 Force bootloader unlocked and rooted. I was messing around with a Quick Settings app and found a dual SIM settings. I was wondering if this phone does come in a dual SIM variant or if it could be made into a dual SIM phone I have the T-Mobile Edition.
The wizard was able to launch. the other settings shortcuts are not working they keep force closing.
You can follow the procedure for the Moto Z to modify build.prop and changing out the modem file for the dual sim variant.
Method 1: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/guide-to-enable-dualsim-singlesim-t3594529
Method 2: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/guide-dual-sim-mod-signle-sim-moto-z-t3606528
Test it out and let us know what happens. I don't own this device, but if it works, I might own it soon. Remember to make backups.
I look through those links you gave me. I'd be willing to give it a try but there's no official TWRP currently meaning that there is no definite way back if I mess up. If there is dumped images I can Flash with fastboot to recover if something goes wrong I would be willing to give it a try.
The files for the modem are in the same location as the Moto Z and Z play also I need to figure out how I am going to get the second sim to be secured in the sim tray

The second method doesn't require modifying system files and everything is done via fastboot and adb. As far as securing the second sim, could you post what the sim tray looks like? My last Moto device was the Moto X Pure, which was stolen in the Philippines. If anyone in the Philippines wants to help me recover it, please PM me.
Here is what the tray looks like I'll do some testing tonight when I get home
Usually Motorola ships their phones with the same sim tray as their international dual sim variants, except with the second sim slot covered up.
When I was messaging Motorola's support today they said the us version is single sim only but there is a different sim tray for the dual SIM version that is available outside the us. I still have to call in and verify over the phone and see if it can be ordered
So when I called in they said that there is not a dual-sim capable after it's been registered in a US Network and then they wouldn't answer my question if I could even get a dualsim tray so I guess I can't

In Italy we have carrier TIM which is selling single SIM (unlocked) @ about 685,00 €.
Unbranded are dual SIM in most of EU markets but prices are high and availability is low: in Italy Amazon sell them @ about 990,00 €, while on other EU markets best prices could be 850,00 €, rarely less....
I've got mine from a *very good* German seller on eBay... they still have one available @ about 715,00 € shipped which is a *great* price to date...
Hello guys.
I have xt1789 03 variant. It's a single Sim but I was wondering what if I put another Sim and give it a try.
I did and it detected another Sim as well.
It was working flawlessly but when I heard that some of the other variant roll out pie update and people are using it.
I try to flash the pie ROM and it flashed successfully but the problem I am getting now is that the IMEI I had on the phone shows 0
I tried to revert it back to stock Oreo and noughat but after flashing I got baseband unknown wifi and Sim signals lost. Even Bluetooth was not working.
I am wondering if there is a way That I could revert it back to Oreo or noughat so I will have the old baseband and working wifi and both the Sims.
Please help me out so I could get my Moto z2 force back to original condition.
Right now what I did for getting the wifi back I flashed the modem NON-HLOS.bin
I lost the sim signals.
Bootloader unlocked
I have an AT&T model I'd like to get on 8.x. I'm not on AT&T but on a regional gsm carrier in Arizona. I'd love a stock rom that doesn't have any AT&T customizations but the bootloader looks to be an issue. Is there a 8.x official rom or other way to upgrade phone?
Thanks
not as of yet i get my replacement unit today in the mail and will post with an update it i can flash the retail version over to my at&t moto z2
Any luck?
Bumping this thread, would love to see if any progress has been made here.
Any update if you can flash retail OREO on AT&T version?
i bricked out my AT&T device trying to get it to change the CID to a tmo cid and in the process killed the device since i have had it replaced and I am trying again just hope it works this time

Hello, I need help with a moto z2 force. My problem is the following: I have the xt1789-04 TMO model, they brought me a free US phone to be able to use it in Argentina. It had updated until the Android version 8 oreo July 2019.
It worked perfect until I wanted to put an Android 9 rom on it, everything works except the mobile network, I tried all versions of rom (android, lineage, etc) and I can't get it to grab the sim. The truth is I don't know what else to do, before flashing version 9 I made a backup of the original version of the phone, I also tried and nothing.
I would like to know if doing blackflash would solve something (it is the only thing I read that I have not tried yet), and if this is how it is done?
Please I want to get my cell phone back, help !!!!
