Normal VS GPE OTAs?

I wonder which Software Version will get the latest updates faster or first?
A normal Moto G or a Google Play Edition Moto G?
Would it be better to flash a GPE ROM on a normal Moto G to get the latest Updates that are going to maybe come this summer faster?

This is a characteristic, The Moto G google play edition upgrades are always the first than the normal moto G because there's no motorola's customization and carrier's customization
Sorry about my english =) i'm learning

Hmm okay, thank you, what do you think is better the GPE ROM or Motorolas ROM?
Your choice. It depends on what do you like the most: google apps or moto customized apps (e.g. launcher, camera etc.).
Id say go with the GPE. Its easier to unlock/relock the Bootloader because you don't have to go through the Motorola unlock website, you'll get updates before regular moto g will, and if you have any hardware issues after your rooted you can just unroot and relock the Bootloader and send it in to google. If you Bootloader unlock a regular moto g, the warranty is permanently voided and there's no way to hide it because you HAVE to go through the Motorola unlock website.
The GPE moto g is basically a cheaper plastic version of a Nexus 4 [emoji4]

i Think its better the Motorolas ROM because you can flash (With the bootloader unlocked) a kernel, for example the Hybrid Kernel by Faux
Motorolas has the F2FS file system and Google Play Edition has ext4 file system thats why most of kernels can't work with GPE.

3. And when it comes to warranty how to get back to lg's stock rom?

1. no
2. no it is not possible but there are a few asop roms that look close to google play edition.
3. using the lg tool for windows, you can return back to stop.
4. hardware wise, no difference. just software. v500 is LG rom, v510 is stock google.

So do I have to:
1. Root it
2. Install recovery
And I can flash any rom?
Can you tell me which one is not much different from gpe?
I know cm, mahdi and others but I'm looking for the most stable and simple rom similar to gpe .

I like slimkat myself, however if you are trying to go close to gpe CyanogenMod is probably closest of all the ones I've tried
The bootloader for the V500 is locked out of the box and roms use a workaround called LOKI. Rooting I used towelroot. Installation of recovery will vary depending upon what version of the LG code is installed on your device (4.2.2 or 4.4.2).
It is strange for me that it is no pre rooted deodexed gpe to flash using custom recovery.
Ok.
And what about LG tool? Is it software from LG?
I need to click repair and then it will restore stock lg rom?

How to know if our Z2 is an Indian or Chinese variant?

I bought mine Z2 from Banggood and the only thing I can remember of the stock was that it was in English. I unlocked the bootloader installed twrp and flashed cosmic rom as soon as the battery charged up.
I did made a backup of stock but it got corrupted somehow when I tried to restore it showed an error so i just deleted it.
I would like to know so I can flash a newer stock firmware to update my baseband in hope of getting lte to work on tmobiles usa network. I'm currently only getting hspa plus.
My current baseband is 9-00026-M8996FAAAANAZM-1.63821.1
Also is there a recovery flashable baseband zip out there?
I think the Chinese Version has the ZUK Logo on the Back and the Indian the Lenovo one.
To check if your Z2 can get LTE, check its baseband and the lte bands of your isp.

Indian version has Google play store installed by default, whereas the Chinese version does not

Hmm I have ZUK in the back but it came pre-installed with Google play lol.
I'm going to chance it and flash an Indian firmware.

Because Banggood and so on sells the Phone with a Shop ROM which has google play services installed but no ota and stuff like tjis.
You got the Chinese Version butyou can flash the Indian Version doesn't matter
Just see the box.
If It has chinese character on front and side it's a chinese version. Otherside if It has only english character is an indian one.

Help finding a xt1635-02 official stock rom, please!

Hello, i'm new here ^^
Anyway, i bought a moto z play in december of last year and i decided to root it with twrp software. It worked fine. Well, the android 7 nougat released and i really wanted to update my cellphone, but not by OTA. I removed the root using supersu and flashed a stock ROM hoping i would be able to do the update. I was able to download the new version but not install it. Later i discovered that the ROM i installed was a custom one so i cant update the android version anyway. I looked up for a original rom to flash in motorola's website but there's not roms to the moto z cellphones. After that i looked up for official stock rom 6.0.1 xt1635-02 on google but none of the sites looked like they were trustable. Can anyone tell me if there's any official stock rom for moto z play dual chip and a quick guide how to flash it using adb minimal fastboot?
Edit: I am from brazil, i just found out that the roms are different depending where you are from

Double check what Software Channel you need and download from the link below.

As for using ADB there are threads under the Guides section.

No official signed ROM is available for this device ... So no official ROM
Though you can download stock ROM unsigned from the above given link

AT&T 8.0 Oreo OCX27.109-47 available, plus a problem

Well, I've been waiting for this to help fix my semi-borked phone and it is now available:
Android File Host Courtesy of the Motorola-Firmware-Team.
I know quite a few have been looking for it as well.
Now here is my issue if anyone can help -
Before I knew what I was fully getting into (this AT&T Z2 Force is my first bootloader locked device) I mistakenly flashed an oreo modem from the retail image to my 7.1 device. This gave me a missing baseband and IMEI, with no wifi or sim. In my attempts to fix it I flashed the modem from Tmobile (oreo) and eventually got wifi back, but not sim. I hoped going to the AT&T Oreo image would give me back sim/cell, but alas it seems the AT&T baseband version is lower than the current TMO on my phone, and both wifi and sim service are gone.
I feel like I need a way to roll back the baseband, but can't with the locked bootloader.
I can flash back to the TMO modem and get wifi, but that is all.
Any insights?
What was the ROM Oreo that you installed before installing the Tmobile?
The ROM that you downloaded is for moto z2 play not for moto z2 force
It is for the z2 force (Nash), just listed under the z2 play on Android file host for some reason.
As for your question, I'm not sure I understand - are you asking which rom I installed before going to the tmo modem? It was the retail Oreo rom, which obviously didn't fully install due to the locked bootloader, but started my journey to finding a working modem as anything 7.1 I tried after the failed retail flash would not work.
In hindsight I could have left the phone untouched at that point and waited for the at&t Oreo files, but I have a tendency to tinker too much...
I settled on the at&t 7.1.1 rom with tmo 8.0 modem for wifi. Now the at&t Oreo rom is available and installed, but it gives me a missing baseband unless I use the tmo modem. Oh well, suppose I will wait for the next at&t update at this point unless someone has any suggestions.
I have a Sprint version coming tomorrow so I'm not as bothered by it any more, and I'm looking forward to the unlocked bootloader.
I tried to download that ROM but do not tell me
When you say the numbering of the At & t ROM It is smaller than tmobile's
I just installed the ROM 8.0 from at & t is working very well, any news I will communicate, thanks for the information
I have a problem with this version the 4g LTE does not grab me
I am having the same issue, did you ever find a resolution for this?

No, unfortunately.
I have a second Z2 Force from Sprint which I use, and this AT&T version exists solely as a mini WIFI tablet. I'm hopeful the 9.0 Pie update will breathe more life into it eventually.
