[GUIDE] Moto G4 Plus Newbie Thread - Restore stock firmware​
No longer maintained. Removed content.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I restore Factory Firmware if my Bootloader is locked?
Yes. However attempting to downgrade to an older version of Android may fail. Even with an unlocked Bootloader, downgrading cannot be guaranteed. It's also important to be aware that flashing the wrong Bootloader for your model can have serious consequences. Always establish your model of Moto G4 Plus before flashing.
What does 'Preflash Validation Failed' mean?
'Preflash Validation Failure' happens when the Firmware Image you are flashing is older than one you have previously flashed.
After flashing Firmware Image files phone gets stuck during boot-up | will not load Android?
Refer to the guide. Check you are naming the files correctly, and make sure you are flashing all of the 'sparsechunk' files - not just those mentioned in the tutorial. The 'sparsechunk' commands listed there are not to be copied exactly, different firmware images have different files.
Downgrading and OTA Updates
If you downgrade, it is advised to avoid all OTA Updates. These updates can result in a hard-brick (phone will not turn on) if you have a newer Bootloader than the one expected.

This thread was made with a reason so people can easily find their stock rom links. Everyone is welcome to help. Please state your model/carrier and post the link here. I will add it to OP. Thanks!

@yeshwanthvshenoy, many firmwares available at Moto G4 firmware page. Even better part is that the links of downloadmirror are pretty damn good too speed-wise.. add these URLs too and give proper credit.

@itskapil I already made a list of firmwares and their models but I need some people to test and tell me. I can't post just with some assumptions. I have links of filefactory only. Maybe people can look that site as an alternative.

General Filefactory folder with a bunch of stock ROMs: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=filename&order=DESC&show=25
There are some things that are really confusing me, both in this Filefactory folder and the ROMs posted in the OP. For example:
XT1641-XT1643_ATHENE_6.0.1_MPJ24.139-13.3_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
The XT1641 is the Canadian / Mexican G4 Plus, while the XT1643 is the Indian G4 Plus. Both device have two different sets of radio bands (for example, the XT1641 has HSPA Band 2/4 and LTE Bands 12/17, while the Indian model lacks those but has LTE Bands 1, 8, and 40, among other differences). So, if one were to flash this ROM, would they be flashing the Canadian/Mexican modem, or the Indian modem?
Similarly, there this file:
XT1621-XT1622-XT1642_ATHENE_MPJ24.139-23.4_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
The XT1621 is the Canadian/Mexican G4, while the XT1622 and the XT1642 are the European G4 and G4 Plus, respectively. Again, the two regional models have different bands enabled, so if you were to flash it, would you be flashing the Canadian/Mexican modem, or the European modem?
I'm not surprised that G4 and G4 Plus images are combined for the same region, (such as XT1625-XT1644_ATHENE-RETUS_MPJ24.139-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip, which is the US G4 and G4 Plus), but these other images that have model numbers for different region devices with different modems is confusing me.

would you happen to have the xt1644 firmware?

It's intended for the US models, XT1625-XT1644 RETUS. The US models launched with MPJ24.139-48, this is an incremental update, MPJ24.139-49. The changelog was just "improved call quality". You may be able to flash it on the Indian model, but be sure not to flash the US model's modem, as it has different sets of bands enabled.

1643-Indian version-Stock Boot and Modem Files

I am posting the stock boot.img and Modem files for the 1643 Indian Moto G4+ who are facing the issue of losing their network and Wifi after flashing stock images provided in various forums. In fact NONE of the links provided exclusively work for the Indian Moto G4+. Hence thought of providing these files. Just download the stock from the provided links from the forums and flash with these files replacing the ones in the downloaded stock zip file if you face the issue of losing network and/or wifi.

Lg g4 at&t anti-rollback non-fusing device

I have a LG G4 at&t variant which I purchased from AliExpress as a refurbished. I did confirm from the board that it is a original H810 version and also the IMEI checks out.
I have read about bootloader being locked but when I check the status of my anti-rollback I see that it says ANTI-ROLLBACK VERSION NON-FUSING DEVICE.
I did a lot of Google searches and I find no results detailing this. Some people have V1 V2 or V3 but mine doesnt show any number.
I have attached screenshots in the OP.
Please any help or explanation will be appreciated

That's because your running the original unupdated software version. There's nothing to downgrade to.

Thank you for your reply. But I don't think that's the case, because I have upgraded to official marshmallow H81020n and I downgraded back to H81010o. More than once. And even in marshmallow I still have the same NON-FUSING DEVICE in the ANTI-ROLLBACK VERSION.

Upgrade to 21y that will be the only way to know. There's an update or two for MM that you can still be able to downgrade before antirollback Version changes.
But be careful a lot of people have issues with 21y. And I'm 100% sure you won't be able to downgrade from it.
Edit: Interesting found Another instance of the non-fusion device and it was a T-Mobile model. But it is unique

Does this mean that maybe if I upgrade I might be able to downgrade? I was expecting the version to be shown as Version 2 anti-rollback.

LG V20-H990DS INDIA-Software Update from V10G to V10J-12-OCT-2017

Hi
Today I got software update bump to V10J with size of 980MB. Initial log says phone and system improvements.
But lets wait for full log
I installed this yesterday. Didn't notice any changes other than some third party music players now forced to down-sample content.
so should we upgrade it?
The update I received
V10j-SEP-23-2017
Size:940 MB
I've been seeing so many update threads but the SEA variant of the 990DS just isn't getting it yet, and that's a little upsetting. I guess cause it was quick to get the July update its gonna fall behind this time.

Read the OP in the KDZ Writer thread. It's designed to only update parts of the system that need updating. Worst case if you're worried, do a full TWRP backup beforehand. That site has SEA KDZs. Might not be the very latest version, but they have them as it's what I originally flashed on my phone before using KDZ Writer to switch to TWN. If it works and you're without your language, just add it in settings
And be sure to thank @emdroidle for making things like this possible.

LG Q6+, looking for the proper stock ROM

I have an LG Q6+, M700AN. It's the version we have in Russia. Not sure about other countries that have the same ROM index.
Currently the Android version is 7.1.1 with the security update of September 1st, 2017.
I know that European ROMs receive regular updates and even Android version upgrades, but not the AN version.
So I started looking for other ROM versions and found this site (lg-firmwares com) with a lot of firmwares for M700.
So I'd like to know what would be the proper ROM index for the Q6+ dual-sim with NFC support, so I won't brick my phone.

Ok, so I found out that the M700AN hardware is pretty similar to M700DSN.
I flashed the most recent firmware dated February 2018 and it's working fine.
Does anybody here own M700DSN and could check this link?
Code:
csmg.lgmobile.com 9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=
There should be ":" between "com" and "9002"
You'll need to type in your IMEI after the equals sign.
Using my IMEI for the M700AN model that is being sold on the CIS market, I get nothing. It's just rubbish.
Maybe M700DSN could give a more verbose result. There should be a link to the latest firmware,
In case it's there, then there's a chance of keeping M700AN up to date using M700DSN updates.

The Firmwares are located on the LG Website and IMEI is not required to Download the firmware files as far i know.
I have M700DSK and the latest FW is 16FEB2018 on 1 Jan 2018 Patch so i dont think that more recent software is available
Can the FW be flashed on Diffrent Varient Without Unlocking the Bootloader (Using LG Suite) ..?

Android 12 in the works?

Now that the G Pro has an official A12 release, does anyone know of any roms being actively developed and where to find info on them? I was kinda thinking of finally biting the bullet and trying my hand at building one myself, since I really like the G Stylus and will probably hold onto it for awhile.
From my experience, the overall best/most stable rom is almost always the official firmwares released by manufacturer.
You can flash the moto g pro android 12 firmware to the moto g stylus if you unlock the bootloader.
Nowadays custom roms are not as popular as in the past. The only reasons for going custom roms are that you hate the official rom or you must have a special feature that is only available on custom roms, or the manufacturer stops updating the device.
You lose many features with custom roms: worse camera quality, no moto gestures, and no FM radio.
I still welcome more developers building custom roms because we can have more options when the manufacturer stops supporting our device.

You will get a .bat file with all flash commands. Use flashdile.xml if you want data wipe or use service.xml if you want to keep your data when upgrading.
Then you copy the flash commands .bat file and the extracted firmware into the adb platform tools folder, and run the .bat file when you boot the phone into bootloader and connect to computer.
This couldn't possibly work on the Moto G Stylus 2020 which is 4G LTE only. This is for the 2021 or 2022 5G version.

Lol.
If you know nothing, don't give wrong information or draw wrong conclusion.
The flashing instructions/guide work for most if not all moto phones and users just need to download the corresponding/correct firmware for specific devices.
Seems straightforward.
