These are the whole firmwares to be flashed independently. No need to do 7 before 711.
Anyone that uses this to upgrade the Chinese phone to Nougat please post how you did it. There are many waiting for a solution.
I copied the whole Mac directory for 711. There are many support files there and a backup & restore apk which will not work stand-alone.
From Mac upgrade assistant.
I zipped the folder from: User/library/application support/.msu/addison_verizon_oem_vzw_user_7.0_NDNS25.137-24-1-4_4_release-keys-cid2_vzw
March patch.
BTW it updates without any data wipe or option to data wipe if you wanted to! Via the assistant that is.
Unlike Moto's recommendations, go figure...
BTW, BTW
Anyone know if apps can be extracted from a FXZ?
I only used this from the upgrade assistant and it did not wipe any user data.
There were some fastboot files (and such) in the .msu folder but when I went back later to show hidden files on wifes El Capitan msu was gone. I was at risk of great peril messing with wifes Mac. My Lion will not run it.
How it it working for everyone?
Request,
Could some kind soul upload Nougat apps (and privapps) from a Z and Z force?
I use them as fake apps in the Play, a way of disabling sys apps.
Root is not needed, more if you need help

Yekollu was particle right, but if we unlock bootloader on 1635-03 we can easy flash fw for other region on our phones.
I think they have retail, flashed by Gearbest and - if they have unlocked bl - they can flash any other region's ROM with RSD LITE. BUT I THINK - if they Don't wanna to have bricks - they must flash FW only with RSD lite.. )
---------- Post added at 09:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------
By the way - if people just want to have 7.1.1 - it will be better for them - to flash TWRP and any custom ROM with it.
Anyway - they will not get OTA update on any custom stock based ROMs. And it will be better for them- don't try to sideload OTA via ADB.

Hi, I have a XT1635-03 on retcn channel, my device is encrypted, I have the dual sim version it runs on android 6.0.1, I've never rooted it and I'm not planning to... I have a few questions and I would be very thankful if you could answer them:
1)do you have the dual sim version? do both sims work fine after the update?
2)did you flash the rom straight from 6.0.1?
3)are there any issues like with camera, notification sound, swipe to shrink screen,...?
4)why do you suggest for the Chinese version users to flash a stock based custom rom with TWRP? it doesn't give you update capability or factory reset option!
5)is there a specific way to unlock the bootloader "officially"?
6)what's with the bat file you talked about? (sorry I'm kind of a noob)
7)the link you mentioned doesn't have the 7.1.1 version... isn't it better to flash the rom provided on this thread?
I'm sorry to ask this many questions... thanks in advance

1. I have dual SIM version. Both sim cards works perfectly
2. At first I flash a lot of AOSP / LOS based ROMs ))
3. I have no any issues.
4. If you ll try to get OTA - you could have brick. So - don't use updates.
5. Yes. Just Google it
6. It's flash(or something like).bat - file in archive.
7. I'm taking about this ROM. It will be better and more safety to flash it for newbies.
You can also try ROM from this thread, but it have to many Verizon apps..

thanks so much for the help...
so if I flash the rom from this thread and try to update it later, I'll probably have risk of a hard brick, is that correct?
I only prefer this rom compared to one you mentioned because this one here is "stock", it's more reliable, and I don't need to install TWRP... so considering these, tell me if it's still better for me to flash the stock based custom rom from "flashallthtime" (the one you mentioned)

So I just picked this phone up from Best Buy, it was cheap and unlocked. Already have it working with a T-Mobile SIM. I'm somewhat new to Samsung devices, but I'm pretty sure this means it's an unlocked bootloader too.. In Developer Options there is a switch for "OEM unlock," which allowed me to flash TWRP built for the SM-J327P, ending up in a nice bootloop.
Anyway that's not the point, I used Samsung KIES to reflash a stock image and it's back to normal.
Assuming this bootloader is unlocked, what do I need to flash to get root? Does this mean I have to build TWRP myself?

You can use J327T one for some strange reason the j327U one doesn't work but if you just boot up into that one it should give you root
Can i flash this firmware on the j327T to bypass Google account FRP just like you can flash SM-950U1 firmware on the SM-950U to do the samething? Just a random thought.
Hello
So i will get a Leagoo S8 phone next week, switching from a redmi note 3, and i am planing to root it instantly becouse i heard there are some bloatware apps and i will instal a custom rom onto the device.
Upon searching the forums and the interwebs i found no tutorials / resources that would lead me in the right direction. I did find a tutorial for Leagoo M8 ROM on here but will it work on S8?
So i hope anybody here can help me.

I have a Leagoo T5c, and I found that option in Developer settings too, so if it is self-explanatory, then bootloader should be unlockable, right? I too would like to root my phone, but contrarily to the S8, that uses a MediaTek SoC, mine uses a brand-new SpreadTrum chip, and I'm not sure it can rooted at the moment.

updated mine from LEAGOO_S8_OS4.0_20171107 to LEAGOO_S8_OS4.0_20180227 and its working fine.
less heat, less lag, camera less grainy indoors (before was grainy but great outdoors, now its both great) curved display was fix(no need for rounder apps) but i was still unable to root the phone (would be great if it was rooted so i can remove apps rather than disable them and tune things up)

can you confirm if the boot-verified.img

From what Ive found, modifiing any of the boot or recovery files will screw up some verification, then youll have to format and flash the whole rom again possibly getting a NVRAM Warning error. So, does anyone know a way to verify(?) the edited files (boot.img -> build.prop(or default.prop?)), or any workaround? Also, I think that the bootloader kind of worked in the Leagoo OS version that came with the phone (althrough, I tried to unlock the bootloader then, it showed YES/NO and warnings like on any good phone, except that the YES selection did NOTHING, the bootloader stayed locked no matter what), havent you guys by any chance updated from Needrom?(I did) I think that the newer version had removed the bootloader completely. Someone should post the first stock rom version if you have it.

I think that in order to flash any modified files, we need to generate/verify all of the files.
Anyone any ideas? What file/s is/are the key to verifying flash files? Or is there a code somewhere in every flash file (recovery-VERIFIED.img, boot-VERIFIED.img)?
Why is Leagoo so damn good at making those things hard to unlock. As I said before, in the 1. version you could at least access (broken) fastboot, now the phone just turns off when accessing fastboot.
latest firmware with user debug possibly can extract root

Note:
-Although your ui will will show 80%, you will be able to charge to 100%
-Lose secure folders
-Lose Samsung Pay
How can I get back to G955USQU5CRIB firmware. I think I may have rooted too early. Sprint didn't unlock the phone yet and I'm unable to flash to verizon.
My original plan was to flash from Sprint to Verizon so the phone could be used on that carrier. However, I'm stuck with Sprint software and the phone, although rooted is still locked to Sprint.

The bootloader version is the 5th number from far end of your current firmware 3 or higher cannot be rooted and the only method is partcyborg rom
there is no downgrading or nothing
if you have to have root get another device
you cannot use cf auto root or flash twrp as we have locked bootloaders
if the bootloader gets unlocked then yes cf auto root and junk will work then

Yea, that's what I figured, if I had a better internet, I would start messing around, it takes forever to download anything for me, out in the cuts.. I like to have my Stock firmware files ready to go incase I need to fix a soft brick or something..
Anyhoo, thanks for the posts my friend, I appreciate it!

I really need TWRP, but it needs a custom version right ?
Also has somebody got root with magisk yet ?
I have managed to get root on G7, and the way to get root on G7 Power is similar (read my posts on G7 section)
Unfortunately, I don't know how to build TWRP or I can make custom recovery for all three variations
Unfortunately it seems like we currently lack stock ROM images for the European Retail version (RETEU2), which makes using Magisk to root that variant currently not safely possible.

Are you able to get the full ROM?
You should look up your model number to find matching ROM
The best bet is to get "RETAIL" , but you should get ROM of your version just in case you want to revert it back
Many thanks to Mingkee. I just got root access following his directions on the G7 forum. The different step was that I had to download a previous version of stock ROM, once the current version has not leaked. :good:
Do you have the American version?
I have the Brazilian stock firmware (xt1955-1 version PPO29.80-27). Sorry.

It seems this one is the us retail stock firmware. The link above was obtained from kfhost.net/artigo/firmware-motorola-moto-g7-power-xt1955-1-android-9-pie
I just got root on my g7 power using mingkee's instructions for the g7. It says bad key on startup, but still works just fine!
I have root as well from mingkee's guide in the g7 forum.

Friend what I gather it is just indicating that bootloader is unlocked.

It's rather strange issue because I see same error even I flashed bone stock boot.img when doing manual update G6 to Pie.
The bad key message appeared to me after I had the bootloader unlocked. To unlock it I just followed this: techdroidtips.com/unlock-bootloader-moto-g7/
Download Links
Best place to look for your stock rom is here:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/ocean/official/
if somebody has the "RETEU2" moto g7 power and rooted it, see if you can change your wifi region using root so that 5Ghz Wifi can be supported. I read somewhere about it, that the current Wifi region doesnt support 5Ghz and i really need it for my moto

Didn't see this before, but yes the "bad key" note pops up on all Moto phones that have bootloader unlocked. I have had 4 different Moto phones and each one has had the "bad key" message before booting.
Is anyone working on a TWRP for this? I'm happy to buy and ship a phone to a reputable forum member if there is a need for the physical hardware.
Alternatively if there is an easy way to get xposed and xprivacy lua installed on this device without TWRP, that's all I need. I don't care about passing safetynet checks.
I've got a root guide over in the discussion threads.

Please be careful when testing!

To users who have installed this internal build, please share your experience report here if you're willing to, thanks.
UPDATE: Thanks everyone. To fix microphone bug, please disable the microphone permission of the "Google" app.
You'll lose "OK Google" ability, but you can make telephone call properly.

Now I think it's time to bring you back to canary labs faster than beta labs.
Internal build version: PL2-4040-0-00WW-B01
It will be updated from: PL2-354N-0-00WW-B01, which is released October 2019 Security Update
As I've warned before - having an unlocked bootloader is strongly recommended.
So recent builds removed handy 874 dialing codes, we have to install them under recovery or Nokia Extensions.
Let me tell you how to verify:
1. Dial *#*#227#*#* to check current Version. If older than PL2-354N-0-00WW-B01, update to 354N before proceed.
FYI, 354N is October 2019 Security Update.
Alternately, you can use command "fastboot oem getversions" under fastboot mode / Download mode to check current firmware version.
2. Install PL2-4040-0-00WW-B01-354N-0-00WW-B01-update.zip with Nokia Extensions OTA Update module or adb sideload under recovery.
3. Reboot your phone.
That's it.
If minor fixes released, I will upload them as well, then use the same method to install it.
To root the phone, you may want to use Magisk 20 released October 12th, 2019 or newer.

Installed it on my TA-1043.
OS installed fine over adb sideload, everything seems to be working, and it shows "5" next to my wifi icon - guess it's cause it's 5GHz, also the mobile data icon is still not AOSP and some custom thing. Menus kinda feel stutter-ish. Screenshots were broken on first boot.
alternate download links like google drive?
The update wont install
version no. L2-354O-0-00WW-B01
Update: "Photo" mode in stock camera is broken, says "Action not support: 708". Pro mode works fine
how to use magisk?
i tryed to patch boot on magisk and boot from ADB, but phone going n bootloop and doesn't want up
Hi @hikari_calyx I'm currently on the DRG-354N-0-00WW-B01 stock build version with an unlocked bootloader. But the version on the post has PLC. Also, if after sideloading this rom I decide to go back to the October PIE update how hard will that be. Thanks.

Hi. DRG is Nokia 6.1 Plus. This thread is for Nokia 6.1 (2018) which is PL2.
Getting error when the camera app is set to save photo to sd card.
---------- Post added at 03:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 PM ----------
So right now for me on the Internal Stock... I cannot boot any TWRP of any kind or boot any patched magisk boot img. Has anyone been able to boot either TWRP or boot a patched boot img from magisk?
May I ask, can Nokia 6.1 plus use this rom?

The confusion is caused by the fact that the Nokia 6.1 Plus (DRG) forum on XDA was recently deleted and now redirects here.
Apparently XDA is working to restore the DRG forum but it will take some time. Until that is done you can expect to see a lot of confused DRG users here on the PL2 forum. Please help them out if you can.

Yeah, noticed that, too. I've been experiencing redirect problems since yesterday. Anyway, I installed Android 10 leaked internal build on my Nokia 6.1 Plus with a locked bootloader :silly: . Been using it for more than 48 hours and I have not faced any major issue, except for the not working microphone during calls (plugging in earphones can suffice, though).

Here's the link for the DRG version for anyone who needs it. (Since the DRG forum is currently down.)
Only install this if you are using a Nokia 6.1 Plus or X6 (DRG). DO NOT try to install on Nokia 6.1 2018 (PL2).

"If you don't have unlocked bootloader, you'll unable to roll back to stable build!"
Literally on top of the OP post. As every downgrade/restoration method needs an unlocked bootloader, you can either unlock yours (paid external service), or wait for an eventual OTA zip (not guaranteed, as stated by the OP) that will bring you back on Android 10 official Beta/Release in a couple of weeks.

Project Treble A/B? B slot don't help me?
I guess it ils worth a try. Reboot to bootloader, then "fastboot getvar all" to get active slot and "fastboot --set-active=[a/b, your inactive slot]
The thing is, with official OTA updates, once the update is over and everything went well, the previous slot is not necessarily in a bootable/usable state anymore. It is not the case with most custom roms/gsi as you either update directly on the current slot or on the other without modifying the active one, so you can switch between slots without issues.

If you switch inactive slot to active slot and reboot... it will ask to do a factory reset. Perform the factory reset and you should be back to the Pie version. Use the fastboot commands Solannae posted above.

Battery draining fast on Internal Android 10.
The battery drain was due to the Adguard app. Everything is working normal again.
