friends, how are you?
It's the following .. I have a serious problem with my Moto G5.
When he went to do the update for Oreo he gave a problem ... Of which I can not leave.
It starts in fastboot mode or attempts to initialize Android but stops on screen (M) as picture.
The bootloader is locked, I tried to unlock by cmd and put the key sent by the motorola, signaled as if it worked and continues as (oem_locked).
I do not have root, my bootloader is locked, and I can not access recovery despite entering fastboot mode.
I tried installing several roms by adb, but I could not succeed with any (Always giving FAILED REMOTE).
Yesterday until it managed to enter the initial configuration of the android (where it places the wifi) but then restarted and never again.
I've tried everything a little bit, and I could not succeed with anything.
Help me, please, I do not know what else to do!
Thank you
:confuso:
You have a few options
The first is just wipe the phone and see if it boots
You can do this by putting the phone in bootloader mode (as per your screenshot) by holding Vol down & power button
Then in cmd/terminal window where you have fastboot on your pc type
fastboot erase userdata
Note this will delete everything on internal storage!
Then select the boot normally from bootloader menu
Another option is to flash the entire firmware via fastboot
You will need firmware which is the same or newer than what you currently have
You don't need an unlocked bootloader to flash stock firmware via fastboot
Note fastboot is different from adb - adb won't work in fastboot mode!
.....
My friend, I made the process using the rom of https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/official-oreo-8-1-0-opp28-85-16-t3849244 except that excluding the (fastboot flash partition gpt.bin and
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img).
Similarly, the screen continues with the motorola logo, does not advance to android, recovery when I select and tighten the power, stay on the motorola screen and back to the fastboot.
The result of the process is this in the image

You need to flash the ENTIRE stock firmware and it MUST be the same or newer than the version already on the phone
Plus you missed sparsechunk0
You got pre-flash validation errors as you are either using the wrong firmware or haven't flash the entire firmware from start to finish
Note if you flash wrong firmware you could potentially hard brick your device

fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

....
I'm from Brazil and from what I've been observing the ROM would be with the same bases as this one from the link.
I refined the process using the command lines you posted and "FAILED REMOTE" is repeated in some lines.
Would not it be some case of partitioning the corrupted system?

Gpt failed because the firmware you are trying to flash is older than what is currently on your phone
Gpt is needed to repartition your phone and must be flashed along with the bootloader
You will need to download firmware which is equal to or newer than what is already on your phone
I saw there was an October update in the ROM. I will try here in the community this ROM and try to blink and bring the result here ..
friend .. I followed the rom .. I did the whole process (without FAILED) but when it starts up it gets frozen in the Motorola logo.
Any tips on what it might be?

As long as everything flashed correctly and the entire firmware had no errors I'd go into stock recovery and perform a factory reset
Hold Vol down & power button
At bootloader menu use volume keys to navigate to recovery and press power button to select
At the Android screen with no command push and hold power button then with power button held then press Vol up
You are now in recovery mode
Use Vol keys with goto wipe data/factory reset & power button to select
If the rom doesn't boot after that chances are you didn't flash the firmware correctly or there was an error in flashing it due to the wrong firmware used
I can not get into recovery. Would not it be a problem with the motherboard?

Could well be
As long as gpt flashed successfully without giving a downgrade warning which will call it to fail then the recovery part of the firmware should flash and you should have access to recovery mode via entering recovery from bootloader then holding power button and volume up at the picture of the android screen
It could be a motherboard issue but since you have no problem getting into bootloader it's more likely a firmware issue/user error

About :
With this guide you will restore stock firmware and re-lock your device bootloader.This guide is from Moto E4 Mediatek variant SKU XT1760 but can work with any Moto E4 Variant. Just grab the partition info and partition name in fastboot mode with fastboot command "fastboot getvar all". But this step isn't necessary if you take backup with miracle tool. It will dump whole firmware in scatter format. So, no need to worry if you have a different variant of Moto E4
This guide will give you the following :
PHP:
<bootloader> : warranty (YES)
<bootloader> : unlocked (NO)
<bootloader> : secure (YES)
>> device unlocked (we cannot remove this warning !)
Requirement :
• Place all the firmware files here:
C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot\HERE
• A laptop/Desktop
• Unlocked Bootloader
• Enabled USB Debugging
• Moto E4 Any Variant
• USB Cable
• Minimal Adb & Fastboot Tool
• Miracle Tool
• Adb & Fastboot Commands
Step 1 : Boot into bootloader mode
Switch off your device
Hold power button and volume down button
When you see START release buttons
This is fastboot mode
Step 2 : Reboot into bootloader
Note : i recommended you to use a laptop than that of desktop. For continuous power supply. Fully charge your laptop battery.
Connect with USB Cable
Open fastboot command window
Type fastboot command:
PHP:
fastboot reboot bootloader
Now your device in fastboot mode
--- Do not disconnect ---
Step 3 : Flashing stock factory images
Type these fastboot commands:
Erasing partitions first
if you have a different variant of Moto E4, just write all the partitions name except bootloader(preloader) in a text file and replace them with the below partition names.
PHP:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase efuse
fastboot erase expdb
fastboot erase flashinfo
fastboot erase frp
fastboot erase hw
fastboot erase keystore
fastboot erase lk
fastboot erase logo
fastboot erase metadata
fastboot erase nvdata
fastboot erase nvram
fastboot erase oem
fastboot erase oemkeystore
fastboot erase otp
fastboot erase para
fastboot erase persist
fastboot erase proinfo
fastboot erase protect1
fastboot erase protect2
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase seccfg
fastboot erase secro
fastboot erase tee1
fastboot erase tee2
fastboot erase utags
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
--- Do not disconnect ---
Now flash stock factory images
PHP:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash efuse efuse.img
fastboot flash expdb expdb.img
fastboot flash flashinfo flashinfo.img
fastboot flash frp frp.img
fastboot flash hw hw.img
fastboot flash keystore keystore.img
fastboot flash lk lk.img
fastboot flash logo logo.img
fastboot flash metadata metadata.img
fastboot flash nvdata nvdata.img
fastboot flash nvram nvram.img
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash oemkeystore oemkeystore.img
fastboot flash otp otp.img
fastboot flash para para.img
fastboot flash persist persist.img
fastboot flash proinfo proinfo.img
fastboot flash protect1 protect1.img
fastboot flash protect2 protect2.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash seccfg seccfg.img
fastboot flash secro secro.img
fastboot flash tee1 tee1.img
fastboot flash tee2 tee2.img
fastboot flash utags utags.img
fastboot flash system system.img
--- Do not disconnect ---
Step 4 : Re-lock bootloader
Type this fastboot command
PHP:
fastboot oem lock
Hit volume up button
Again type fastboot command
PHP:
fastboot reboot
Step 5 : Fix for system image sparse chunk
Used only when fastboot command failed to write system in system partition else when you see "sparse chunk error" wait for 10 minutes. you will see 1/20 or something operations. if not or command ended up with chunk error than use this command.Use this fastboot command:
PHP:
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 system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.11
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.12
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.13
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.14
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.15
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.16
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.17
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.18
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.19
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.20
Step 6 : Do not use this fastboot command
PHP:
fastboot erase preloader
This will wipe bootloader from bootloader partition and your device ended up with permanent Hard brick.
Step 7 : Fix for bootloader(fastboot) drivers
if your device isn't recognized in fastboot mode, Download USB Drivers from below attachment. Select manually "android_winusb.inf" file while updating driver software.
Download Link :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0Oo-yXGY-zUMG1XRG52dFZpV1k/view
Step 8 : How to dump stock firmware
Thread link below:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e4/how-to/how-to-backup-stock-rom-moto-e4-variants-t3654976
Guide to fix boot_dataerr in miracle tool if it failed to dump stock rom
Look at the log window in miracle tool there in driver part you will see MTK preloader USB COM PORT#7. We don't need Preloader driver right now, we need MTK Android DA USB COM PORT#7. The solution is update your device driver software to fix this problem else you won't able to dump firmware in scatter format also we don't have official factory images. This is the only method to revert on purely unrooted stock firmware.
Step 9 : Minimal Adb & Fastboot download link

Personally I'm very thankful for this post, as I couldn't figure out how to do it myself. I was able to reflash stock and lock the bootloader but it wouldn't boot since it always said it was modified, so I just returned my previous e4 with the bootloader unlocked and the noverify thing flashed.

fastboot oem lock (relock the bootloader)
their is nothing to do with boot image. verification is for system if you changed something and didn't disable verity " MOUNT FLAG /system ro wait,verify" your device ain't gonna boot into system.
dm-verity can be disabled by two ways either remove "verify" or change the default.prop values "ro.secure=0".

Before I returned my other e4 I flashed the stock images with rsdlite and then did fastboot oem lock but then the phone wouldn't boot since it said it was modified so I had to unlock the bootloader again and flash the noverify thing in TWRP. How should I have done it to be able to return the phone with the bootloader locked?

" it said it was modified"
First of all remove all the changes you have done in system else if you don't know where you have done changes wipe system partition and reflash system image in system partition.
don't flash gpt.img, pgpt.img, bootloader.img in fastboot mode also do not erase data in fastboot mode "fastboot erase userdata". your device must be charged upto 80% if you want your device boot after a clean flash.
as i am also facing over discharged problem.

Open command prompt at fastboot location with firmware
type the following although I have marked lines that you should not use unless you have to as flashing wrong firmware can damage your device
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set Only required if you wish to relock bootloader - if not skip it
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin Do not use unless you want to repartition your device - incorrect file will damage your phone
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img Do not use unless you want to replace the bootloader - flashing wrong file will hard brick

Hi, this happened to me, back to the stock rom (Android 7.0) of the device and do the whole procedure. And your sensor will work
Be careful to do not downgrade your bootloader though.
This tutorial helped me to recover biometrics in my phone (XT1676, reteu, 3/16, DualSIM).
I am not responsible for any damage! If you proceed to follow this, you're doing it at your own risk.
1. Make sure, your adb and fastboot is working.
I recommend using this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 . For me, it's fully working on Win8.1 x64. If you install it (press "Y" for all of 3 questions), but after connecting phone you see "Fastboot cedric S" with yellow exclamation mark in device manager, there's problem with driver: right click on it --> "Update driver software" --> "Browse my computer for driver software" --> "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" --> "Android devices" --> "Android Bootloader Interface" --> "Next" --> "OK" --> "Close"
(Open cmd and use "cd" command to get to directory, where's adb installed (in this case "cd C:\adb"). Then, press Enter and type "Fastboot devices". If fastboot is properly installed with corresponding drivers, you will see your device listed.)
2. Download this firmware https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hlNzlFhLCEj6xigfKrYcvnwH9jy3f5j3/view and extract it to the same directory as adb is installed.
3. Boot your phone into fastboot mode by pressing and holding power and vol- buttons for few seconds.
4. NOW, THE MOST IMPORTANT PART! Check your bootloader version.
4a. If your bootloader version is B8.25, use these commands to flash:
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
4b. If your bootloader is B8.24 and lower, use these commands:
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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
5. Your phone should reboot and sucessfully boot into OS in few minutes with fingerprint working.
DON'T EVEN TRY TO TAKE OTA UPDATES.
6. (optional) However, if you want to update your phone, update it manually with correct files from this site https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/how-to/cedric-ota-archive-t3795275

Hi everyone,
I bought a Motorola G6 play model XT1922-3 type 374B and wanted root acces on this device.
So I started by succesfully unlocking my bootloader using the following tutorial.
After this a started tried to root the device using this tutorial.
This tutorial doesn't link to boot images anymore so I was able to find the moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img somewhere else.
I did the following things:
- reboot to bootloader [Succesfull]
- fastboot boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img [Unsuccesfull]
The device did boot the twrp image but I was unable to interact with it in any way. I couldn't swipe or press buttons.
I made a short video to show this.
I wanted to retry the whole thing so I did reboot to bootloader but then I accidently entered the following command:
fastboot flash boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img picture of command prompt
After this I wasn't able to normally boot my device. When I try to do so the screen goes black and says n/a in the left corner.
Please does anyone know how I could either be able to boot my normal stock rom again or to have a rooted rom?

Hi Sven,
This isn't going to be the most advanced reply, as I'm not very experienced with this stuff either, but it seems you have accidentally flashed your twrp image to 'boot', wherever that is, which is why the phone isn't able to boot to system.
Can you still boot into bootloader and recovery (twrp)?
If so, then I'd suggest using fastboot to flash a sock or custom ROM. I'm not sure exactly which one though, you have basically the same model as me and that seems to use the JETER ROMS a list of which are over here (can't post links yet, so you will just have to search on mirrors . lolnet . com /firmware/moto/jeter/official/ or remove the spaces
I seem to have somehow lost the partitions on mine, but will start a new thread question about that.

Hi everyone,
I bought a Motorola G6 play model XT1922-3 type 374B and wanted root acces on this device.
So I started by succesfully unlocking my bootloader using the following tutorial.
After this a started tried to root the device using this tutorial.
This tutorial doesn't link to boot images anymore so I was able to find the moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img somewhere else.
I did the following things:
- reboot to bootloader [Succesfull]
- fastboot boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img [Unsuccesfull]
The device did boot the twrp image but I was unable to interact with it in any way. I couldn't swipe or press buttons.
I made a short video to show this.
I wanted to retry the whole thing so I did reboot to bootloader but then I accidently entered the following command:
fastboot flash boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.imgpicture of command prompt
After this I wasn't able to normally boot my device. When I try to do so the screen goes black and says n/a in the left corner.
Please does anyone know how I could either be able to boot my normal stock rom again or to have a rooted rom?
Kind regards Sven Onderbeke

Just flash a stock boot.img to boot. Then just flash TWRP to recovery. In TWRP, format data. Type yes. Then reboot recovery. Then Use TWRP to flash magisk. Done.
Hi again Sven,
I just wanted to let you know that I just downloaded the following RETAIL ROM
ALJETER_RETAIL_9.0_PPPS29.55-35-1_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
and used the following fastboot commands, one at a time.
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.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 oem oem.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot reboot
Which rebooted into bootloader so pressed "start" and all booted fine now. It looks like we have the same device, so hopefully that will work for you too.

Hi. Can someone help or at least tell you in which direction to look. Moto (lenovo) G5 XT1675 cedric RETGB device. CEDRIC_OPP28.85_19_4_2_cid50_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml (the latest firm on Android 8.1.0) and over it via tvrp lightweight stock on 7.0 android was flashed. In search of a problem, I went through a lot: I replaced the board with yusb, flashed the Rescue and Smart Assistant program from Lenovo (with the firmware that the program told me), unlocked the bootloader + tvrp and root. I tried a lot of custom, but I didn’t solve the problem. The essence is the phone in the included state. does not see usb (in any way, neither charging nor connecting to a computer) but it is worth rebooting the device with the cable connected and everything works. But if you disconnect the phone cable. It no longer sees it until the next reboot. If the menu is loaded into Factory mode through the fastboot without connecting. cable, then when the bodies are connected, it sees it but only the first time. comp. the bodies are normally charged, stitched, etc., the TVRP also does not see the cable (also resolves with a reboot) I personally think about the bootloader, but having the latest version, there is nothing to update and it is risky to roll back to a version below (you can get a brick that cannot be cured with a simple firmware)
I say the same to most people with these types of issue
If flashing stock firmware via fastboot doesn't solve the problem then it's a hardware issue & not software
Firmware can be downloaded from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/cedric/official/
If you don't know what to choose then choose the latest retail image
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

Thank you. I know about all this. I made the backup first of all after unlocking the bootloader and the TVRP firmware. The first time I stitched with Rescue and Smart Assistant https://www.motorola.com/us/rescue-and-smart-assistant/p. I think that this program knows exactly what firmware I need. But it did not help In the off state, the device responds normally to the cable (it charges, connects to the PC where all the drivers are installed, I flashed it many times and tried various factory firmware) but if you connect the cable after the logo image (logo.bin) , until you reboot the device with the cable connected and if you turn it off. That is, when the android system is loaded, the device stubbornly does not want to see the connection. I think that the problem is not in the hardware type because with the firmware I would get a bunch of errors or just could not connect the device but everything works

Like I said - if you flashed stock firmware exactly like I posted above with the latest retail firmware from the site in the link and you still have issues it's a hardware problem - either the board or the USB cable you are using
