Moto G9 Play bricked by booting wrong twrp? - Moto G9 Play Questions & Answers

Hello forum, if someone could help me finding out, whether I bricked my device doing a pat step, or if it's still possible to recover it, I'd be most glad!
After unlocking the bootloader, it might be, I did a wrong step restarting too soon or something, or trying to boot into a wrong twrp-version. Actually I don't remember each step, as this happened a few months ago...
Thank you for now,
draftflash

if you still can, boot into fastboot and on your pc type
fastboot -w reboot.
if it doesn't work then consider using this firmware updater https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-stock-rom-for-xt2083-reteu.4214883/

Hi rogue.bot, don't remember, maybe an instruction to install /e/ for Moto G7. Anyway, new state is that I recovered the STOCK and now 'd like to install the proper twrp, which should be available now, as I saw.
will the files on this thread be fine?

Thanks, sorry for my late replay. I thought that /e/ was only for pixel phones, is it any better (in privacy) than LinageOS?

ouh, don't think so. I choose it for being said to be a bit lighter. But I am thinking of changing back to LineageOS for /e/ is a bit too close to conventional ROMs, regarding the user surface. But actually I don't know the newer versions of LineageOS.

I dont know if it is available, but for another phone I´ve tried dotOS and was pretty nice, at least on the surface, didn´t dig too deep inside the OS but it seems like a good option, also it has optimization in its DNA

is there a tutorial to root your device on here

It should be noted that there is some permission related issues if you remove the -w flag from the flashall.bat file. For now you are better off running the upgrade without modification.
Rooting Notes:
See this post
I have most the the android website feeds in my Feedly and i was following up for this update since morning.
Your post was the first with this info. Well done bro, thank you
I have flashed on my N5 and its working on the first boot. Sure is taking some time. I will post some screen shots as soon as I get my ADB active.

To prevent your device from being wiped, open the flash-all.bat file in a text editor like Notepad++. Edit the line containing “fastboot -w update” and remove the -w switch before saving the file.

It's normally a matter of a week before OTA's start pushing. Remember all phones will not receive it at the same time.
Can someone clarify this for me:
im on 5.1.1 with twrp recovery. Can i wipe all except internal storage in TWRP and then fastboot flash everything except userdata.img? This would prevent the internal memory from being wiped(consequence of flashing userdata.img). Would this work and be a clean flash?

Go ahead bro, there always be a first time........you are in the right place to have support.

goood luck
First thing needed: Google USB drivers, if you install them, they'll install automaticly after device plug in.
Second: unlocked bootloader, i don't remember what command is for that (i've done it a lot time ago) but on google site it is. Of course, you need to do it by fastboot.
Third: recovery, TWRP from their site and flash by fastboot.
Fourth: rom flash by recovery, it'll be easy.
Little instructions for you
finally I am all good with Nougat on my Nexus 5
Hey all, I am kid from 80s who have seen computers and internet Growing Up Right in Front of Me. I was feeling the same exictement that I had while installing windows 98
I spend almost 5 hours in one single day and I was a kind of shock after having a Nougat on my Nexus.
One thing here is for sure that restart may resolve problem in windows on 1st try but on the phone have to be patience and still rebooting the device may solve many problems...
Thanks a lot to seniors and other developers for their job....
It can't be more short

Yes, that's it and we are done with the update if one knows the steps than I think it will take only 1 hour max to get latest updates on Android. Thanks for keeping it short...

tried to downgrade to oreo from pie now i'm screwed

I don't see any topic relate to downgrade of razer phone 2 so i decided to try since my pixel 2 or galaxy s9 will not any problem as long as my bootloader is unlocked
but it woudn't work on razer phone 2. i downloaded the oreo factory image from the official website but tried the flash-all now my phone is currupted. since there is no pie factory image available, i think my phone can't recover. I'm thinking if flashing gsi would work?
I lowered the version from 9.0 to 8.1, there were no problems...
You probably did not completely unlock the bootloader. It is also necessary to unlock "Critical Partitions", and after that flash the firmware image 8.1
fastboot flashing unlock_critical

LOL, why would you go from a phone you can root & customize, to one you can't do ANYTHING to (that (cr)Apple doesn't allow you to do!)?! That's the ENTIRE reason I've never bought an iPhone, and have always bought Android, so I can root and customize (I realize there's Android phones you can't root, but I'll only buy ones that CAN be rooted).

Use the volume and power buttons to navigate the little menu and reboot your phone into the bootloader while the phone is plugged into your PC. For some reason the flash-all script doesn't like to run as administrator, so try running it just by double clicking. Also, cmd doesn't like pulling files buried in folders, so put the folder with the script and images in the base of your C drive just to be safe. Windows has this issue with the number of characters in a file's path and refuses to find files if the number of chars in it's path and name are too high.
Any benefits using oreo over pie for the razer phone 2 though? Like is it faster or something? I really don't feel the rp2 needs rooting or a custom rom it's plenty fast enough in my opinion

[Required Help] Fire OS or custom rom not working.

I tried using custom roms installed via TWRP and resulted in flickering black screen with multiple roms. After this happened I resulted back to the stock recovery and reinstalled the latest version of Fire OS from Amazon website and.... black flickering screen. Is this a brick? or... If it is it's going in the trash

Model? Generation? Regardless, sounds like your device suffered a hardware failure or somehow acquired a borked boot.img. The latter seems more likely given recovery (twrp) is working. Believe the unlock thread contains guidance for restoring the stock boot.img.
Assume you are experienced and applying the appropriate wipes in twrp when swapping ROMs.

Amazon Fire 5th Generation. I got the boot.img from the AmazonFire5thGenSuperTool and installed it as recovery through TWRP. I will go through the guide of restoring the boot.img and reply as soon as possible!
I restored stock recovery through the unlock guide and same thing... black flashing screen. It's borked or something.

True. I didn't realize twrp was working.
From twrp flash the unlock exploit. The newest one is in a twrp flashable format.
It will ensure proper lk is used. Lk should be responsible for the screen drivers. Afaik.
Then try revamped or Los or Nexis rom

Then that is maybe why you are having trouble flashing ROMs.
The current custom ROMs all require the device to be unlocked.
Here is the thread with the unlock exploit.

Advice in this case.
Don't root if you are in a hurry
Bootloader unlock is at least 7 days waiting
Backup before and restore after format is again a couple of hours
Brick is a couple of weeks or papermate

I don't have any data and can format at any time,
I hope to achieve ROOT as soon as possible, Maybe 7 days can also wait or over 7 days,
I was wondering if there is an exact way?
Of course, I also hope that it will not become a brick,
Why should I root?
Because I'm very disgusted with the monitoring and security software that comes with the mobile phone system, I don't need these software and management, I am use to assured of Google's management, and don't need mobile phone security App,

There is a lot of information how to unlock and root your Xiaomi device.
So I won't give you a detailed guide.
- Start with bootloader unlock
- While waiting 7 days, study how to go further and download everything you need.
- Like ADB, Twrp or Orangefox, Magisk, Custom rom and optional Gapps
...................... Studying before next actions is necessary to avoid a brick ..........................................
- After 7 days, unlock
- Flash with fastboot, recovery (Twrp or Orangefox)
- Reboot to recovery
- Follow flash and format instructions of desired Rom
- Flash Magisk for root
PS
Please don't shout anymore for root in a hurry
