ADB Sideload of Lineage OS fails at 47% - Moto Z2 Force Questions & Answers

Hey everyone,
I've been trying to install Lineage OS on my Moto Z2 Force for about two months now and I'm starting to get pretty desperate
Every time I try to sideload Lineage via ADB (after flashing TWRP), the sideload fails at 47% stating "Total xfer: 1.00x". I tried half a dozen different versions of Lineage nightly for nash (15 and 16) but the result was always the same. I wasn't able to find a solution to my problem on the internet so I'd love for you to share your thoughts on this!

Awhile back I tried los, but I was having trouble with sideload too. I ended up just flashing it in twrp like a regular rom. Others who use los more and have more experience with it might have a better answer for you, but that worked for me. Just make sure that you have the base firmware required installed, and don't forget to format data.

Normally working fine. Read carefully the manual from lineage.org and learning by doing. Read the changelogs, too. That's helpful and read so much ypu can about A/B partion and if then working, don't update over Updater for few days. There is a bug, which is in the next days be fixed. So, you must invest some time to understand all. Here it was not easy, too. Maybe 2 days to learn from mistakes. Then you get it working.

Thank you for your reply! So what exactly would you propose I do? Wipe with TWRP first, then return to Fastboot and flash los from there?
Before booting I'd like to install an open gapps package which must be done before booting los for the first time. Could I do that via Fastboo as well?

Just flash it through twrp like a normal rom I have never heard of anyone sideloading a custom rom. If you're using a carrier variant of the Moto Z2 Force that may give you some issues too.

The wiki says to sideload for a reason -- you can bungle up FBE encryption keys by storing stuff in TWRP on a device where FBE decruption in TWRP is attempted (nash).

Follow the wiki description - it's a TWRP bug that sideload only goes to 47% - though it has actually suceeded. It would turn red and say "Failed" if it failed.

See above - it didn't fail.

Because of the A/B partition, you can only install through a temporary twrp. If you try permanent twrp, you won’t be able to boot

Same problem with Lineage Recovery. Followed exactly the wiki but it stays the same 15.1 version.

I'm on T-Mobile and I ALWAYS had that problem, totally forgot about it at this point. Just ignore it, the rom is flashes successfully anyway

Well, but after reboot the new rom is not flashed or active (might be in one of A/B but no switch of slots).

You might be right but last time I fastboot flashed anything was some time ago. Maybe after flashing I had to manually switch slot? I don't remember. I'm in Lineage 16 and is working great

Of course, there Is a fastboot command for that, very simple. Just google it

Changed it so slot b - now bootloop in both a and b
This A/B system is really no help for custom roms...
Now try to flash with temporary twrp.

Same here.
Device: sweet TWRP: 3.6.1 and 3.6.2
Bash:
adb sideload CARBON-CR-9.0-R-WEEKLY-sweet-20230501-0124.zip
serving: 'CARBON-CR-9.0-R-WEEKLY-sweet-20230501-0124.zip' (~47%)
adb: failed to read command: Success
ROM flashed, booted, and seem to work fine.
EDIT:
It is normal. Found this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/af12lu/_/edvwaex
That's an ADB issue, nothing is wrong with the device, cable, PC or the installation process.
If I remember correctly (from a discussion long ago), Google's ROMs are transferred about 2.2 times across the sideload. To make the progress bar add up to 100%, they said "2.2 times the file size equals 100%". Our ZIPs are transferred just once, so the final progress is at about 47% with a success. The xfer seems to show the transferred data compared to the file size. Ours clocks in at x1.00 or x1.01, while Google's is about x2.something.

[bricked device] OP3 shows yellow screen

Hey guys,
I think I'm a little bit in trouble: I just got a OP3 and wanted to root it as I'm used to it from the OPO.
But there were problems because of Force Encyption... After a few trys and flashs, I flashed Stock OOS (
OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_013_all_1608061823_765c081a5c8e4dad.zip
) from TWRP and after rebooting...
THE SCREEN IS YELLOW AND FULL OF PIXELS (like an olt TV).
You can feel it works from vibrations but you can't see what's going on... I tried this for unbricking but no success.
I think my phone's display drivers might be broken but idk.
Does anyone maybe know what to do here?

Unbrick guide method 2 should fix it, otherwise ask Oneplus support.

Which TWRP are you using? Try using the latest from eng.stk's (Blue Spark).
If you want MM, the more stable and improved version is 3.2.8. What you downloaded is 3.2.4. So, download 3.2.8 and boot into recovery, wipe system, dalvik cache, cache and data including internal storage (you will lose all your files including photos, videos etc). Boot the phone into the bootloader mode and push the ROM to the phone and flash it from recovery or flash the ROM from PC using adb commands. Flash TWRP again and boot into recovery and if ok, boot into system. If everything is ok, you can flash SuperSU/Magisk, if you need root. A couple of wipes of both the caches in between may also be done.
If this doesn't sort out the issue, use Method 2 from the Mega Unbrick Guide in XDA and follow every instruction scrupulously, especially relating to drivers.
If even this fails, it is a hardware issue.
EDIT: I see that Puddi Puddin beat me to it.

Well you have really messed up something it seems.. This shouldnt be happening by rooting and stuff, I think it is pure coincidence

What exactly did you flash other than OOS and recovery? Why did you need a few flashes? You flashed SuperSU or Magisk? Root still works on an encrypted system so not understanding some things from your post

First I flashed newest TWRP and Paranoid Android but it wasn't as good as expected and so I flashed back to OOS (_008 I think) and everything worked but when I wanted to flash Magisk (because SafetyNet) via TWRP I couldn't because the phone wanted a pattern to unlock encryption.
I read that it would be the same as I used to unlock my phone (btw the only 1 I use) but it didn't work...
Before I found a guide with the right order to remove the encryption I tried different ways by myself (that's because I flashed a few times) (Toolkit, "Fastboot format userdata", TWRP format) but nothing removed it.
Then I wanted to follow that guide but meanwhile there was no OS at all and img Install via fastboot didn't work but I managed to get the newest stable OOS (_16 I think) on the phone, installed it with TWRP aaaaaand...
YELLOW-ORANGEish PIXEL SCREEN
fastboot and everything works - I just can't see what's going on

I already asked you to use the TWRP from eng.stk
The official 3.1.1-2 works well with OOS but is cranky with custom ROMS. eng.stk's works both with OOS and custom ROMs.

I can give it a try later (and in the future when everything works again) but I do not think (at least I can't imagine) that the problem I have comes from recovery.
I know the reason!
I found other people who also had a static screen and they said they could fix it by pressing the screen back on its contacts...
I did so and it worked!... A bit... For a few minutes...
So the static definitely wasn't the result of rooting and stuff but the repair company's fault.
I hope they accept their mistake and fix it. Thx for everyone here trying to hel me!
P.S.

(Just in case people get same problem)
[after Mega Unbrick Method 2 finally worked (I put the stock zip in the tool's folder)]
This morning I restarted the phone just because and I could see what was going on on the phone - but the display was still crazy with yellow tint and colorful stripes etc.). After setup it asked me to download & install newest stock rom; I did and after reboot everything was fine again....
Don't know what happened here but it seems to work again.

Anyone try or currently using DU 12.2 OFFICIAL build

I've got DU 12.2 OFFICIAL installed on my phone now and am having some problems, Any gapps i try to install fails, i can receive calls but cant make any using data or wifi, my memory card works fine in the phone but doesn't show up on the computer, when i hook my phone up to the computer i cant get into download/fastboot mode, shows no devices on the devices command. i have to boot into fastboot by powering off the phone and doing the volume down + power then everything works fine. Any ideas what I may have done wrong or what the problem might be?? I was on stock Oreo 8.0 rooted w/twerp installed, done a full wipe a couple times before i flashed just to be safe..
Gapps are preinstalled. Do not flash any. I haven't had any calling issues with Sprint. Memory card shows up with adb disabled for windows and enabled for Linux. Adb reboot-bootloader works for me on both windows 7 and Linux. APM works as well from developer options (Advanced Power Menu).
Just my experiences running DU for the past two months

Hi, what steps did you take to flash the rom?? I tried to reflash again with the same results. I wiped everything except OEM and micro SD card. did you flash the official or one of the weeklies?? this is the version ive been trying to flash: du_nash-v12.2-20180511-0850-OFFICIAL

I can give you my experience with DU. I ran the RC version which had recently had the issue with sdcard fixed. Like Uzephi said, no need for gapps, they're already baked in. As for adb/fastboot, you just need to reinstall the drivers, and manually add the moto adb driver when your device is in charge only mode. Then you should be able to run those commands just like always. I can elaborate more on that if you need. As far as flashing, I followed the flashing instructions for the AOSiP rom and flashed the 27.1 prep zip as well. Though the prep zip might be unnecessary if you have oreo on both slots. Uzephi would know better than I as far as that goes. I know the RCs and weeklies are signed differently, so no dirty flashing between the two. It might be better to flash the prep zip to have a clean slate on both slots.
Anyway, that was my experience. Hope that answers some of your questions.

I use RC since I live on the wild side (I have tried to hard brick this phone so many times, only thing I won't try is locking BL since that's a stupid way to hard brick.) Airwalk says it perfectly. If you have Oreo on both slots, no need for the prep zip. I flash twrp.zip after booting into twrp, reboot recovery, flash rom, flash twrp again, reboot recovery, flash my kernel, flash magisk, reboot bootloader, fastboot -w, then boot to system.
Obviously I take more steps than needed. That's to flash my kernel, root and twrp after the flash before booting which isn't advised (wild child over here), you should fully boot first, then do the flashing of root, kernel, twrp, etc.

Well guys I followed the the flashing instructions for the install guide from the AOSiP ROM to the "T" going from stock 27.1 Oreo 4 different times today to no avail, I came up with the same outcome as before. No calling, mem card not showing up on computer, having to manually boot into fastboot and so on. I downloaded Los 15.1 and followed the same procedure as with DU and it works like a charm. I just hope now it keeps getting updates Thanks again for your help and suggestions guys

Try the RC from 0509. I have been running it since the 9th with no issues.
I've tried to follow the instructions here (https://plus.google.com/communities...5/stream/2a745c1e-aae6-4b50-93dd-14417258d7ce).
I did a huge mistake of thinking that flashing for slot a and slot b was the same of step (2/2) I saw in the screen.
I was coming from Stock Nougat (7.1.1) and, most probably, I finished having oreo in one slot and nougat in the other.
I reflashed TWRP as per instructions.
When I tried to reboot, phone got dead (no charge, no turning on, and no bootloader...). This scared me totally. I unbrick some Asus, Google and Samsung before. But this time it was too premature and having no bootloader is unbelievable.
Will the AOSiP guide will work now for me? I'm with Oreo (don't know how to check if on both slots...), but if a new phone.
Does anybody know why we can't have a DU thread here in xda?

Posted there, thanks. But I'm not sure if it is all the same, for all Z2 models. I can't find a DU step by step tutorial. There are some details that expert people are not writing and I'm new to Motorola, slot a/b, etc. I'm not a newbie, just that this phone has a lot of peculiarities...

My AOSiP instructions is how I installed to the T. I did no other steps. I did that on every install from stock to an AOSP based ROM. I have not yet bricked to 9008 mode to try blank flashing yet to verify instructions on how to do that.

They tell you need to flash to both slots. Here on xda, devs say we need to flash ROM just to one slot. Of course, I'm not sure this is the problem. Just trying to imagine myself at DU.
By the way, are there any settings (customization) present in DU that AOSIP does not have?

Didn't really care for the DU. Although it does have working 4g on sprint(much props there). I just didn't personally like the "feel" of it. I'm rockin the unofficial LOS 15.1 right now and its pretty lovely. I'm limited to ROMs b/c of sprint but so far LOS kicks ass.

Would this procedure work? (install magisk and twrp on 10.0.3.0)

First, let me say I have been using rooted phones with twrp for several years and never had the slightest problem with them, so I generally know what I am doing, but the Mi A2 Lite is just a disaster area for me, not with Magisk, that works fine, but twrp seems impossible for me to install on 10.0.3.0 without soft bricking ( I had twrp installed on 10.0.2.0 and 10.0.1.0 so I am not unfamiliar with the method, but on 10.0.3.0 - no way). I have done so many factory resets now I have my own parking space at the factory! (That is humour btw).
So I wondered if a different approach to the problem might work. I am not a coder or phone guru, so what I propose might be nonsense, if it is I am sure somebody will tell me.
We are all used to the concept of the 'patched_boot.img' created by Magisk and if you don't want to produce your own version the forum usually has a link to it. Magisk though is not the problem, twrp is, so what I am proposing is that somebody provides a link to a 'double_patched_boot.img' ie a flashable boot image that contains both twrp and magisk and that can directly replace the stock boot via fastboot.
Apparently there are some folks that have managed to install both twrp and magisk on 10.0.3.0, so if one of them could extract the 'double_patched_boot.img' from their phone it might help out a lot. How do you achieve that? Well there is probably more than one way, but the way that I would choose (if I could manage to install them both in the first place) is to boot into twrp, connect to pc, take a miflash backup of the phone and then unzip it with the following command (this is a linux command I am sure someone can provide a windows equivalent):
Code:
tar -xzf ********.tgz
where ********.tgz is the name of your miflash backup.
Then extract the boot.img from the resulting folder, rename it to something like 'double_patched_boot_10.0.3.0.img' and provide a link to it on the forum. Then some brave soul could try it out (probably not me as I am sick of doing factory resets and don't have any backups because I don't have any recovery to make them from).
OTOH this might just not be practical, I don't know enough to be sure.
i was having similar issues. replaced my mi a2 lite and followed the guide for the aosp 109 gsi here in the forum replacing the fstab and one other file i forgot they name but it's instructed. i have twrp zero the fixed one, magisk, and I'm running the RR PIE ROM with zero issues and I've been back and forth in and out of recovery no problem. I'm pretty sure it will work for you too.

Interesting. I have certainly thought of jumping ship to a custom rom, but I would like to wait a little before I do so, ideally until someone fires up a Lineage rom for the A2 Lite. But if things continue as badly as they have done so far with stock roms then I might well join you on RR.

also because of the new ARB thing, custom is much safer, i think i bricked my last device rolling back from ota 9.0 software to ota 8.1. that's a non-issue with custom. just something to be wary of. the current RR pie gsi is near flawless for he so far. hope that helps a little

Anti roll back is disabled and not an issue if bootloader is unlocked
Nice thread. Tried it as well but no chance 10.0.3.00 + twrp + magisk. And you are right the problem is twrp.

correct it is not. what happened was.. lol. i thought i was crafty and did some file swapping and made miflash setups that would flash so the stock files as usual , but with gsi's like RR and/or bootleggers for the system image. and it works, up until i flashed from RR to bootleggers with those setups described previously . there is where my genius was flawed. lol. lesson learned

I don´t get your problems... Just boot twrp, and install it as described in original thread.
After that flash back aboot from 9.6.11.0 and the message "your system got destroyed" will disappear!

You might not get my problem, but likewise I don't get your solution. Firstly aboot has never been touched during the attempted twrp install so why flash it at all, it has not been changed, and secondly you suggest I flash it with something that is how many versions old 4?, 5?, I'm not sure, when just about every post you ever read stresses that you should not mix old and new partitions at the same time.
I hope you forgive my scepticism, but can you actually suggest the slightest reason why this might work?
Or is it all just voodoo johnny (sorry, couldn't resist that).

Aboot is the bootloader. Since Pie the aboot was modified to check wheather there are modification on your boot.img. So everytime you modify something (like installing twrp), you get the message "your system got destroyed".
9.6.11.0 is the last version of Oreo. Here the bootloader didn´t check boot.img.
That´s why you need to flash 9.6.11.0 - maybe the older verstions will work too. Didn´t check. But I guess only 9.6.11.0 will work becouse it was the latest oreo version and it had to have a bootloader which can boot up pie (to have ota working).
Here you can find the aboot.img I use... and which works without any problem on pie - right now I´m running 10.0.3.0...
Just flash it via fastboot.

OK that makes sense now - thank you for the explanation. I will probably give that a try sometime, but not right now as I have a stable working phone for the first time in ages and I don't want to jeopardise that.
Just one question though. When I had twrp installed on 10.0.2.0, it was fine at doing backups, but on the two occasions I tried to restore with them they failed, by which I don't mean that the restore didn't repair the phone, but that it was impossible to even carry out the restore, it started but did not complete - just ended with 'Restore Failed' message.
Have you tried any restores with twrp installed in the manner you suggest and if so did they work? No point in installing it otherwise.

There seems to be some bugs restoring system and vendor... Some users talked about... I usually only save and restore the data and boot partition and I never had any problems with that. For all other partitions you can use miflash or fastboot...
Yeah all my twrp full backups don't work after a fresh stock installment either, that's very annoying.
The twrp version for daisy is bugged. Backups are not working, the wifi with GSI Roms on pie stock is not working anymore as soon as twrp is installed as well.

Thanks for the replies above. @voodoojohnny
In my case it was the data partition that caused the restore to fail, vendor and system and boot all seemed to go through normally. @cd492
Based on what you say along with my own experiences and those of voovoojohnny, it looks like twrp is more trouble than it is worth at the moment. I think I will make do without it for now and hope for a better version in the future.

THIS HAS NOT BEEN TESTED ON GSI'S YET
I'm currently in the process of RR with TWRP but having extreme Encryption errors
Grab these two files (Big Thanks to Zerovoid, Seryioo, and mac12m99)
Fixed SDCard Support TWRP Image File (Put this on your SDCard and Computer)-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...unofficial-twrp-daisy-mount-sd-fixed-t3889390
Fixed SDCard Support TWRP Installer Zip (Put this on your SDCard)-
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603893418
But I got TWRP on 10.0.3.0 with magisk, and Justic Kernel.
THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE I'M DEFINITELY NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST DATA
Start with the phone being on with USB Debugging enabled correctly
Type adb reboot bootloader
So flash the 10.0.3.0 ROM through MiFlash using the flash_all.bat, this process has to be done so backup your data before erasing.
After it is done flashing it restarts, go ahead and hold power and volume down right back to the Bootloader
Type: fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-daisy_zero.img
It would boot into TWRP, if you see something about decryption hit cancel this may mean you haven't followed directions so far
Tap install and find your SD Card, find the fixed-twrp-installer-daisy.zip where ever you put it on your SD Card and install it, this process takes a few minutes when finished DO NOT HIT REBOOT SYSTEM!
Hit the home button back to TWRP home screen and tap reboot >>> bootloader
Download this to your computer - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603884024
Type: fastboot flash aboot aboot_9.6.4.img
Then type: fastboot reboot
Afterwards your phone shall boot up to Android if it does hold power and volume up and release power and keep hold volume up when the screen turns back on to go-to recovery, if TWRP boots up you have successfully completed the task.
Now flash Magisk zip (optional)
Hopefully this helped kind of my first tutorial, this was my process.

Yes I didn't see that post but understand I didn't give you links to the official TWRP, I gave you the unofficial fixed TWRP which actually features SD Card Support and trust me it works completely fine I haven't had a problem yet. This took me hours upon hours to figure out what I was doing wrong.
The only specific reason you are not successfully getting TWRP is because you didn't flash the aboot.img after installing the zip.
I hope this helps you in the future!

Nexus 7 2013 won't get past Google logo after trying to update OS

I was trying to update the OS on my Nexus 7 2013. I was able to connect it to my PC and unlock it and erase user data using adb commands. But after that it will not go past the Google logo in Recovery or regular Start mode. When I run "adb devices" it does not show up, though my computer does see it since I can run the lock/unlock adb commands and they work. I have uninstalled/reinstalled different adb drivers for the devices. I've tried using 2 different PCs. I can not get adb to fully recognize the device. I tried the Skipsoft Android Toolkit, and it too reports "no device detected".
Have I completed bricked the device? Or is there some way out of this that I haven't though of/found on the internet yet?
I hope someone here can help me!
Thanks!
Assuming you're on stock, try flashing a factory image from Google themselves. This reflashes everything, like stock OS, recovery, bootloader, etc. I'd choose the latest version found here: https://developers.google.com/android/images#razor As long as you understand that this wipes data, then give this a shot and let us know the results!
I found the "Nexus Root Toolkit" windows app. It was able to communicate with the Nexus 7 and restore the factory ROM and I could get it to boot! Now, I've tried about a dozen times to install LIneage, but it keeps getting an error the point of trying to install the ROM, and I haven't figured out what the error means or how to correct it. I've tried multiple TWRP versions and Lineage OS versions. It's driving me nuts!

Are you trying to install the official version of 17.1? If so, you'll need to look at the install guide on the LineageOS website here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/flox/install
As far as I can tell, you cannot use TWRP, or at least the official TWRP, with this image. You'll need to use the LOS 17.1 Recovery found on the downloads page. If you haven't already, you're going to need to repartition the device with the instructions found on the install guide that I linked.
If this isn't the ROM in question check out the thread for that ROM and see if anyone else has any issues with installation.

Thank you! I did manage to get 18.1 to flash and load, after using a repartiion tool I found. However, I can't get GAspps to load, saying there isn't enough room on the partition. Now, I'm trying to use NRT to get back to stock (like I was able to do earlier) but now it is getting stuck at the Android 6 startup animation (4 round icons). I'm wondering if it is because I ran the partition update and somehow have to put that back to get the stock ROM to work.
The only suggestion that I would have is to flash the smallest GApps package possible, and before flashing LOS 18.1, wiping pretty much everything, then flashing LOS and GApps. Since OpenGApps doesn't make an Android 11 package yet, I don't know much about the other package providers, but that's all that I can think of. Hope this helps!

I wound up flashing Stock Android 5.0 and it worked. Now I'm updating to 6 via the software upgrade in the OS itself. I feel like this thing is just too old and not large enough memory to handle a custom OS.

Question I have screwed up

Today I decided to install TWRP with CR Droid. Strangely though, after installing CR Droid and loading the ROM once, it stopped booting. Then, I decided to try and reinstall thinking that may solve the problem. Once I thought the OS install was complete, TWRP came up with a message saying "there is no OS installed". Strangely, no OS is installed even though I'd gone through the same steps.
Now the really big issue is that I cannot get my internal storage to mount properly. It keeps showing 0mb. I have followed the steps of changing from ext2 to ext4 and although it shows with the correct storage size within TWRP, when I try to send anything to my internal storage from Windows, it fails to do so and when I check the storage size via properties on Windows, it is unable to detect the size of the storage.
I'm totally stuck as I am unable to send another OS to my phone now. Can anyone please help me?
It just happened to me. Solution was to use MiFlash and fastboot install MIUI back.
After installing, boot it once then you're ready to flash your custom ROM.
That's great info thanks so much Chrisparkerrr!
Did you decide to try again with TWRP? I'm unsure whether to do so or not. I don't think it officially support Poco F3 which I guess is the issue?

TWRP for Poco F3 is indeed buggy and not officially supported by TeamWin yet. You could give TWRP another try and might succeed in flashing crDroid. TWRP's unreliable though, honestly.
I personally also tried crDroid and failed to flash it multiple times. I got it working in the end, but forgot how. I tried a lot of Custom ROMs. For most of them their Fastboot versions would succeed to flash 1 out of 4 times, meanwhile I can't flash their Recovery versions at all, as TWRP shows a useless error, "Error 7" or whatever number.
The only Custom ROMs I was able to flash through TWRP were Xiaomi.eu and ArrowOS.

Try different twrp , one that ends with aliothin should work ? Idk
I had error 7 when installing miui which means that the file that's being flashed reports as not compatible w the phone ? That was on nebrassy twrp , I tried the other twrp and the error was gone.
But then again I had cases where nebrassy twrp was the one to save the day ... So download both , sit by your PC and see which one works - If the phone fails to boot after wiping data it's time to flash w mi flash as the partitions get broken after wipe , if the system boots properly it then repairs partitions but if it doesn't then only mi flash works...

Try roms with fastboot installation. Coz recovery has many errors. I faced the same problem and it caused me trouble too.
Just keep a Xiaomi.eu fastboot rom with you. Any time you face the problem fastboot the eu rom and try again
