hello guys I was wondering if Is there any root method for our zuk z2 with the latest oficial zui version on indian variant?
I guess that lenovo will not send some update for a while, they sent that 2.5.104st in april-29, and we still not receive anything that they promisse for the may-19. (I think that they finished the tests before and Took advantage to spread the stable version before...)
I am no telling about the beta version of nougat in the indian version, i'm speaking about the stable version sent via OTA
sorry for my bad english, if you can't understand something, tell me that I'll try to explain again.

What's the problem? Unlock bootloader and flash SuperSU.
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.

As per the screenshot, you have a Moto G5 Plus i.e. Potter not Moto G5 Cedric. This thread is about Moto G5 Cedric retin stock image.

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 only information available is what Motorola make public
That is this device will get oreo
No time line or anything other than the Motorola announcement that this device will get oreo is available
Dates for otas are never made available as they always change
No one at xda will be able to give you anymore information
Ok thanks for your answer

I'm a bit confused. Why does Motorola push OPP28.85-13 as an official update when newer version (OPP28.85-16) already exists? I've even heard about OPQ28.85-13 build somewhere on xda - that build should be the latest one right now.
Opp28.85-13 Oreo 8.1 arrived in Portugal. Device from amazon market.
Got OPP28.85-13 on my phone (Slovakia - reteu soft. channel, unlocked BL) today. However, I am scared of getting hardbrick using OTA, because my bootloader has been already updated to Oreo version (B8.31) by flashing another official Oreo releases (you can find them here, on xda).
In my case, is it safe to do the OTA update or should I rather wait for full fastboot image of OPP28.85-13?
EDIT: Full fastboot firmware (OPP28.85-13) download link: https://rsdsecure-cloud.motorola.co...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip (approx. 1.4GB). File is geo-locked, German VPN is neccessary. I might recommend this free VPN add-on for Chrome https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hotspot-shield-vpn-free-p/nlbejmccbhkncgokjcmghpfloaajcffj.
I just found the ota update for NPPS25.137-93-14 build number https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Ev...XAIiIQkY6EXDVg
just place the zip into the root directory, then go to moto update and enable storage permission finally go to check updates and just install
thats all
I have XT1677 on retus channel. I see the official Oreo build is already launched, but not showing up when I try to manually check for updates.

Is there a Oreo stock rom that I can flash ?
Yes there is firmware available for your device both by OTA method and fastboot method just do it's as you want.

Thanks. On checking for updates, it says you have the latest software, which is weird/wrong (since Oreo is already out).
Never mind I installed the Oreo ROM from - https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/stock-upgrade-to-official-stock-oreo-8-t3823598
Hello, do you know what is the latest and final official firmware for fastboot that has been released for Motorola G5 XT16xx and variants?
thanks

All firmware can be downloaded from
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/cedric/official/
Look at the dates
Is it safe and reliable that they are the official versions?
since there is a version of which I find almost nothing on the net.
