Fastboot working improperly on xt1789-04 engineering - Moto Z2 Force Questions & Answers

Since I saw that the Moto Z2 force was able to be rooted, and I had just killed my Z force, I figured I'd go ahead and order a new one on ebay.
First thing I tried was to get the bootloader unlock data.
The issue with this however was that the command wasn't running properly. It gave me unknown command. So I retyped it and tried it again and it told me I was running an engineering sample.
The problem here is that I had to, and have to, run a command multiple times for it to execute properly. Looking in the bootloader logs shows that the command is executed, but part of the last command is appended at the end to make the next command as long as the previous command. if the previous command was smaller than the next command, it's truncated.
Has anybody else experienced this? Is there a workaround, or is it due to my engineering sample phone?

With IMEI and the serial blurred of course

I seem to have fixed the problem.
For anybody else searching for this thread, the solution was to use a different computer. Even after reinstalling fastboot and the drivers for my device, it continued to occur. However, after switching to my laptop everything works properly.

You have an engineering model, the bootloader is already unlocked, to my understanding.
Code:
(bootloader) securestate: engineering
This is a device designed for testing not normal use.
You need to be very careful, your device does not have consumer firmware.
The standard Moto firmware likely will not work correctly.
The Engineering firmware likely is not available.
This device might be rootable but if something goes wrong you have very few options to fix it.
I would try booting Twrp https://dl.twrp.me/nash/
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-nash.img
and see if you can do a full system backup
You may have to disable the pin/password... if twrp decryption doesn't work.
if booting does not work you can try flashing twrp but there may not be any going back to stock boot.img after that.
I don't have specific knowledge of Nash, this based on several conversions with owners of other moto engineering devices.

It did actually come with retail firmware, but fastboot is in engineering and the bootloader cannot be relocked. Certainly a new experience for me. I got lineage running on it with magisk to hide from GPay. Works like a charm now!

Help Please! I am not able to unlock My T-Mobile Z2 Force bootloader

Hello,
I am having trouble unlocking my T-Mobile Moto Z2 Force bootloader. When I run the command fastboot oem get_unlock_data it returns with:
...
(bootloader) Failed to get unlock data.
OKAY [ 0.016s]
finished. total time: 0.016s
I have tried many things such as, ressetting the device multiple times, making sure the enable oem unlock options is on, changing the OS of my pc, re-installing adb & fastboot, re-installing USB device drivers, re-installing Motorola Device Manager, using different PCs, using different cables, re-flashing the latest bootloader, and reflashing the latest firmware package.
When I run the command fastboot getvar all it says:

P.S.
I owned another Moto Z2 Force T-Mobile which I had been able to unlock with no problems whatsoever. I noticed my CID is on the chart of unlockable devices from the lenovo forum. I have looked for help on several different forums. I really hope that this problem is something that can be solved.
I have also asked this question on the lenovo forum and have gotten no replies

How to unlock XT 1799-2 Montana if official Moto unlock key does not work? Help!

Hey guys,
So I bough the latest G5S version, the Green Pomelo aka XT 1799-2. It's a wonderful phone for the price, but I am stuck with stock ROM and locked features such as camera2.api. Decided to root and followed this guide to the letter https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g5s/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-moto-g5s-t3691200 , but hit a block. When I obtained the phone, my boot loader was already indicating following warning:
"Your device failed verification and may not work properly". I assumed it was already flashed by reseller. Neverthless, I tried to unlock the bootloader using official Motorola key anyway just to receive following:
C:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot oem unlock EG2Q6NB37LSZ2RHIX6KZ
(bootloader) slot-count: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
(bootloader) slot-suffixes: not found
...
(bootloader) invalid boot state
I assume they locked the bootloader again, but due that I am hopeless now. I contacted their technical support, but they can only offer either full refund or replacement, which will leave me a month without a phone. Thus I am turning on you guys. Is there a way to unlock the bootloader somehow anyway? And if, could you state how?
Here is the full getvar:

In my also gave this same error when I tried to unlock the bootloader, is giving this error because this phone already comes with the unlocked bootloader, it is blocked to flash
Try unlocking using this command
Code:

Oh man, thanks a lot for that! That worked. So shall I normally proceed to root now without problems?

Would you tell me how did you root the phone afterwards? I am trying to flash TWRP Recovery twrp-montana-3.2.3-r1.img but getting error.

Is it possible to root the T-Mobile XT1789-04?????

I've been trying to root and install Lineage 16.0 on my Z2 force TMO XT1789-04 for a few weeks now.
I was able to unlock the bootloader on Motorola's website no problem.
The phone has been updated to OCXS 27.1.7.
When I run getprop ro.bootloader, MBM-3.0-nash_tmo-1f35305-190705 is my result. This didn't verify if my bootloader was OCSX, so I ran the getvar all command in fastboot, and the output said I was running MBM-3.0-nash_tmo-1f35305-190705 in slot _b. I will post all the info at the end of the post.
Earlier I made the mistake of moving ahead to set the bootloader partition to slot _a. Luckilly I didn't brick my phone. I used the following commands with no luck .
fastboot set_active other
fastboot set_active a
fastboot –set-active=_aslot
fastboot –set-active=_a
What am I doing wrong? Should I give up? I'd rather sell my phone than brick it.
If someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it!!!.
Thanks!

Why do u have to do all of this to just install lineage 16?
I'm on T-Mobile too and I just simply:
1- fastboot flashed the pre-los zip
2- follow the normal procedure for flashing Los (although it took time to find the right twrp version actually working, many didn't flashed successfully) + magisk for root
3- mind my tmo Z2 force was already on Oreo...
Use twrp 3.3.0.0.img to flash with, I wouldn't worry about installing twrp since the updater uses Los recovery. If you must insstall twrp 3.3.1.0.zip is solid I believe. Not sure why 3..3.0.0.zip isn't there, but I have the zip if needed.
I tried to install TWRP 3.3.0-0 using fastboot flash boot (path to) twrp.img
I wasn't able to get TWRP installed. Am I using the wrong commands or twrp image?

You'll need to run fastboot boot twrp.img once it boots to TWRP you can use the install option within TWRP to install the twrp.zip file

I want to follow this close. This is 2nd or 3rd thread I have seen this failed to boot problem. It makes me second guess my choice to purchase one of these devices.
I have wondered if this phone, being Mtk soc, opens possibly to use sp flash tool for flashing and repair. This would be my first Moto device, but definitely not first Mtk. I am familiar and comfortable with sp flash tool. .

So, based on what has been told. And the information in your post here. You need to use the boot.img from this firmware.

Carefully, I have no experience with Moto. All I can say is from other device experience.
Based on the guide you quoted as followed. You downloaded firmware. Extracted the boot.img, patched that boot.img. then flashed it to slot_a and slot_b.
Then you had boot loop.
Was the firmware you downloaded the correct one that matches getvar output.(from before , not now). The firmware I linked matches getvar output from now.
And back to the question, yes try to just flash the boot.img from linked firmware to both boot_a and boot_b. Just like from the root guide, but with the stock images.

You want to flash the same

If not sure you could just
Flash the full firmware.

XT1952-1 boot.img issues

Hi!
I'm new here, and some threads have been helpful already. However, I wonder if trying other different approaches might make the issue more complicated than it needs to be. Also, this isn't urgent, and I'd rather do it right than fudge around more than I already have..
I'm currently stuck with a "bad key" in the top left corner when booting the phone. I can still boot into bootloader and fastboot detects the device. I've tried overwriting the boot.img with a variety of variants, hoping it would work out, but alas it has not. I can boot into TWRP (phone wouldn't accept TWRP install from the start, but that's okay) but when I attempt to flash a LOS zip via sideload, it returns some errors.
I had originally installed a LOS + MicroG variant, which was working great, and then wanted to lock the bootloader. Well, and here I am..
From what I can tell, I shouldn't have to blankflash just yet. However, I'm not quite sure what the easiest path out of this pickle is. Thoughts?
Edit: I should add LMSA returns an issue when attempting to download software for the device. I tried setting it to a different XT variant, and it correctly recognizes the device, but then returns an "improper settings" message, if I remember right.
This is what getvar returns:

XT1952-1_CHANNEL_TIMIT_9.0_PPY29.105-134_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
There are newer versions like this Android 10
XT1952-1_CHANNEL_TIMIT_10_QPYS30.52-22-8-9_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
I would start with the version you have.
Download the firmware, unzip, find the flash.file.xml, open it with a text editor, copy, and paste into the online flash.file convertor, link in my thread.

Thanks! I'm trying it now.
I do get "(bootlaoder) is-logical:system_a: not found" (or a corresponding similarity) for almost every line. Also, boot.img still returns a "bad key" during flash.
Device reboots, and I get a "bad key," but it reboots into the operating system.
That should allow me to reinstall LOS, or at least I can try and see if it'll do so.

Bad key is pretty common for moto devices with unlocked bootloader, usually just means the boot.img isn't signed the way it expected.
Okay. 18.1 + MicroG running again. I'm also getting the N/A on boot again, as I did last time.
Big thanks for that! I had been plucking the boot.img out of of zips in the expectation that it would eventually work. Didn't realize I needed to flash the whole system.
I found myself in this mess because I wasn't able to properly lock the bootloader. Unless there are specific suggestions on what I should try or do better, I'd just leave it open. It bugs me a little, but it's not a huge issue.

Moto's must be completely stock to Relock the bootloader, and even then it can be tricky.
Okay. What I take away from that is that it's difficult, if not impossible, to re-lock the bootloader of a Motorola loaded with Lineage?

Do not lock a moto device with a custom rom, unless you don't want it to work ever again.
