  • All photos and screenshots -under the spoiler tag,you are welcome
  • Android Pay, Sberbank, Magiskand so forthapplications - oftopic in Firmware
  • If you stitch a FOREIGN firmware of a higher version than the native one for the model, provided that the bootloader is locked and there is no tick OEM-unlock in Settings - 100% "brick" (only a specialist can restore)
  • If there is a ready or unpacked firmware of the required version, it is not recommended to use OTA, there is a risk of a “brick”. And, of course, in no case should you sew the firmware of other models and regions. Only native. "Yes, you calm down, I did it a thousand times" may end sadly.

To replace the kernel, recovery and getting root through SuperSU, you need an unlocked bootloader
F.A.Q / Likbez
I bought X Play, the model is not clear what
You can find out the model, as well as IMEI, serial number and date of manufacture, by logging in to Fastboot>Barcodes. If instead of six characters (XT ****) some zeros, ask in the subject. Unfortunately, the alphanumeric code alone is not enough, it is necessary to determine the region to which the model belongs. The update channel is in italics:
  • XT1561retcn(CN: China)frequencies
  • XT1562retmea reteu retin(EU, FR, DE, ES, IN, ASIA: Europe + Asia),frequencies
  • XT1563retla retca(CA, AR, LA: North and Latin America),frequencies
  • XT1564retlra(LRA: Puerto Rico, etc.) and XT1565vzw(VZW),frequencies. Please note that Verizon cannot unlock the bootloader, with all the consequences, and also Russian is cut out from the menu.
How to get into the "fastboot", what is it?
Fastboot- pre-boot menu, controlled by volume and power buttons, as well as a mode for performingteams. Enter it like this:
  • when the phone is turned off, hold down the Power and Vol Down buttons for 2-3 seconds, release.
  • turn off or restart the phone with the cable connected to the charging or computer, after holding Vol Down.
  • execute the commandadb reboot-bootloader. There should be drivers, adb itself, access allowed, etc.
While in fastboot, you can get detailed information about the phone by running fastboot_console.bat (the file fb_info.txt will appear next to it) located in the adb_fastboot.zip archive (see the header, download, unpack, drivers should also appear) orfastboot getvar all.

And in the "recovery" how?
Recovery is a pre-boot environment for servicing Android, there are two types -officialand informal (usuallyTWRP). Functions: work with the file system, applying updates. How to get: from the fastboot mode we enter the Recovery item, we see the robot, hold down the Power, then a short press on Volume Up, release both buttons. Further transition with the volume buttons on the menu, you can clear only the cache (wipe cache partition), or completely reset the phone to factory settings (wipe data / factory reset). Confirmation with the Power button.

And what firmware to install, or not important?
It is important, since the models differ at least with a modem and a number of SIMs, and if you try to install a fresh firmware on a smart with a locked bootloader, and you haven’t yet come out on your model, you risk to stay with an unloaded device, perhaps forever.

What is a bootloader?
The area of ​​internal memory, stuffed with manufacturer protective functions (articlein English), for example, a ban on changing the contents of the system partitions in which the firmware resides. Therefore, users who want to customize the smartphone in their own way, seek to unlock the bootloader. Find out the current status of the bootloader, it is locked (locked, Status 0) or not (unlocked, Status 3), or blocked again (locked, Status 2), as well as its version (for example,BL: A0.48) by going to fastboot -see photo. Please note that it is not possible to roll back the version of the bootloader, whether it is open or closed. Open can be closed back, change the state of an infinite number of times, but the number 2 will always be evidence that smart unlocked in the past.

I am a beginner, where to start, how to sew? Additionally, I want to root, recovery and install any firmware
At firsthow to sew:on smart, go to fastboot, download the latest official firmware for your model on your computer, unpack it into a folder, then open the xml file with RSD Lite, click Start, ready.
  • if there are several xml files, select flashfile.xml, which additionally contains a complete cleaning of the previous data and user settings; servicefile.xml does not clean anything, only alters system partitions.
  • if the process is interrupted with an error like "failed flashing process 6/24 flash boot" boot.img ", you are trying to sew someone else's or outdated firmware. Be careful.
The question of root requires checking the status of the loader (see above).Unlocked?Great, go straight to installing TWRP.Blocked?Free official unlock is available to you, after which the installation of TWRP, the installation of SuperSU and then we will get root-rights.

How to install unofficial. Recovery (TWRP):Download adb_fastboot.zip from the header, unpack it into a folder, launch the flash_TWRP_recovery.bat file, select the version you want to stitch, confirm, and immediately after successfully completing the operation, go to the RECOVERY MODE item with the top volume button! Otherwise, the protection will not save the changes and the recovery will remain official. How now to sew an unofficial firmware, see below.

How to get root-rights:After logging into Android, we copy the SuperSU zip archive into the internal memory of the smart (look in the header / on the forum / google), go back to TWRP, go to Install, find the archive with SuperSU, set, reboot. Everything, we have root-rights.

How to unlock bootloader:on all models of the Lux family, the procedure is free (except for XT1565, where there is no unlock, andis availableonly a minimum of modifications), carried out through the Motorola website and fastboot mode.
Read more about unlocking
Download the driver from the header, as well as the archive with the adb_fastboot folder. Unpack the folder and run fastboot_console.bat. If you see a smart (run through a bunch of lines with technical information), enter the command fastboot oem get_unlock_data and get something like this:
(bootloader) blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
(bootloader) blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
(bootloader) blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
(bootloader) blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
(bootloader) blah blah blah

Move onreference, Click at the bottom of the Next, authorizing or checking in, and then get to the page with N2 step, where there is a window. Select and copy (pr book mouse, Mark, highlight the cursor, Enter -.. Work out!) Sequentially in this window from top to bottom every line of code, "blah blah blah" to get one big conjoint line, we click Can my device button be unlocked ?, at the bottom, do not forget to agree to the terms and get the unlock key to the post office. Let's go back to the commands window (reopen if closed) and enter fastboot oem unlock ***********, where the asterisk - received in the mail key. After the automatic restart obtain an unlocked smart. If it is not clear yetinstruction

How to lock the bootloader back: The operation requires an official RSD firmware version equal to the one already wired, or fresh. In fastboot mode, send a commandfastboot oem lock beginsew RSD, wait, send the final commandfastboot oem lock. The loader receives status 2 ("closed again").

And can a stupid question, is it really possible to sew official firmware through TWRP?
Impossible, since TWRP is designed to install unofficial software. There are two types of firmware:
  • partition images in .img, for installation from RSD Lite / fastboot - inside the files gpt.bin, recovery.img, .xml. Official factory firmware type
  • update archive in .zip, to install from recovery - always inside the folder META-INF. Unofficial type, usually custom or factory mod, as well as official OTA
It is logical that you can not install anything informal on a smart with a locked bootloader There are no restrictions on unlocked, you can experiment.

How to sew the modified (unofficial) firmware?
Go to TWRP, find the internal memory of a smart card in My computer, throw a zip into it with the desired firmware (or connect a USB flash drive via OTG), boot into TWRP, choose Install. Depending on the preferences of the firmware author, it may be necessary to pre-wipe the System section. Read carefully the description of the firmware, universal tips in this case are harmful.

I saw Android 8.0 on one X Play, but how, if 7.1.1 is the maximum ?!
Do not confuse the official factory firmware (stock ROM, RSD / SBF) and informal custom-firmware (Cyanogen, Resurrection Remix, NX ROM, etc.) Last updated much more speedily, so Android 8.0 and above is not new to them. An advantage of the factory in support of Moto-tech, almost never occur in other smarts:. Voice control from a deep sleep, turn on the camera a gesture, an active screen, etc. Analogues of these technologies in the recent time there, but Motorola will forever be known for their impeccable implementation.

It is 7.1.1, the loader is locked, I want to return to 5.1. How to do?
With a locked bootloader, "roll back" the Android version, of course, is impossible. Such a ban is part of the protection of the smartphone from hacking. "Rollback", however, becomes possible when the boot loader is unlocked. When you decide to return to the previous Android, be careful, and in any case do not try to lower the version of the markup and the loader - do not sewgpt.binandbootloader.img. TakeAkelpad, open * .xml (if we sew in RSD Lite) or * .bat (if we prefer fastboot.exe), delete the corresponding 2 lines, save. The loader will remain intact. Taking OTA after such a rollback is absolutely not recommended! If you sew the latest official RSD stock for your model (completely, along with the markup and the loader), OTA is safe again. P.S. If the smart asks "to remove the firmware of Motorola Sensor Services" - we agree.

I sewed something, then I updated it, now the bodies do not turn on, what should I do?
For the future: it does not matter whether your bootloader is unlocked or not, use caution. Sew only native firmware! The update coming via WiFi (OTA) can be installed exclusively on the official and unmodified firmware. An attempt to install OTA on a modified, custom, not "native" will lead to the most diverse consequences, up to and including physical damage to the device!

The easiest and fastest way to disable the XT1561 (as of 2016): a device with a locked bootloader on firmware 5.1.1 try to flash 6.0.1 from another region. How to avoid: either enable the checkbox OEM-unlock in the developer settings, or unlock the bootloader immediately. How to cure: if there is a native 6.0.1, put it, and if it is not, you are at a dead end, with a "brick" in your hands.

Always used OTA, but you say they are dangerous
If the bootloader is locked, not dangerous. It is very simple to install: either by checking for updates in Settings, or by uploading a zip update to the root of the internal memory, then to the recovery and Install from sdcard (in this case, if a microSD is inserted, the zip should be on it, and if the internal memory is integrated with the microSD, disconnect them). Owning a smart phone with an unlocked OTA bootloader is simpleNot recommended . Do not wait for instructions. The ripped 7.1.1 Moto X Play is not recoverable, they can only be repaired when EasyJTAG is available.

Articlehow does the PTA.

Does OTA come to everyone?
PTA will receive a smartphone or not, it depends on its IMEI (possible S / N), the required software version, and MCC / MNC code SIM card. Updates are sent irregularly. Initially, a small portion on the smart sold to developing countries such as Brazil or India, followed by a pause and the analysis of the media sphere in the presence of serious problems messages. Then sending continues waves, more and more, but in doses not to overload the links and servers within 2-4 weeks. What smarts get OTA, and which do not solve the company. If you do not come, and you are sure that the model is compatible, put a hand from a file downloaded from the network.

I want to flash, I went into fastboot mode, but the RSD Lite program does not see the phone
The problem is most likely in the computer drivers, if you have already supplied the Motorola drivers, they checked the cable, the USB connector is OK, and so on. It is solved by reinstalling / changing the operating system or the computer itself. Motorola + RSD Lite driver bundle is tested on all operating systems, from XP to Windows 10 x64, a problem in your hardware or software. Check if fastboot.exe works.

Android 6.0, in My computer, the smart memory is shown empty
From curtain switch from “Charging Only” to “File Transfer (MTP)”.

To run an adb command, you need to plug in USB debugging, and where?
Seven times, tap on the "Build number" in "About phone", the item "For developers" will appear, enable "USB debugging" in it and confirm access if the smart requests

I heard about the magic root-program that does not require unlock bootloader, so I can put it?
It seems that we are talking about KingRoot and KingoRoot (there are two of them), which sometimes allow to get root-rights. But the quality of this method is extremely low. Ruth does not survive the reboot, there are no more recording rights than there is, compatibility leaves much to be desired, puts advertising. It is used in special cases when it is impossible to get the root in any other way.

I have Verizon, in the menu a bunch of "left" programs, how to remove?
The process of cleaning up annoying content is called debloating. In the presence of root-rights unnecessary simply delete the file manager. If there is no root, blockpm adb commandeitherconvenient program from Windows(not ready yet).

I put the Russified firmware, but the voice control does not turn on
That's right, Moto Voice (previously Touchless Control) does not support Russian. To wake up the phone with a code phrase and manage it via Google Now (redirect goes here automatically if the command is not recognized) in Russian, you need root, then Xposed, then the App Settings module, in which we find the packagecom.motorola.audiomonitor, the language inside we set English, click "apply", reboot, then you can customize the passphrase. Cmfastwith a picture if it is not clear. There is information that at Moto Z, the voice control is finally being taught to Russian, so we are waiting for porting to our model.

Put Android 6.0, and where is Moto Assist?
Not. And will not. Motorola's solution to not duplicate the expanded functionality of Google Apps.

What gives a custom kernel?
The main thing is the ability to fine tune the balance of performance-energy efficiency. Cman article. And at the same timethis, how effective is fine tuning Android.

And how to remove the protection of Google, if I want to sell the body unlocked?
From the phone account is deleted in Settings>Accounts>Google>(your account)>Delete. Also check if there is a Motorola profile, and also speak out.

Can I change the stock android 5/6/7 from a light theme to a dark one?
Officially impossible. Install custom firmware, or application Layers Manager and the like (need root).

Moved to Cyanogen, GPS barely crawls, what to do?
Reset radio settings with fastboot commands. Then launch GPS Status from Market and check the effect.
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot erase cache

The same teams will help with problems with the native modem, if they sewed someone else before, or clicked on the USA Band engineering menu, which is not possible.

How to record a conversation not from the microphone, but from the line?
Try Call Recorder (need root).

I'm on Beeline, Lollipop firmware, problem with displaying dialed numbers
Possible solution seehere. Motorola's comment, roughly: "the problem is in the Beeline hardware settings, nothing depends on us."

Does not catch LTE, the operator claims that the problem is in the phone, I do not know what to do
Start by replacing the SIM with a new one. For a list of supported LTE bands, see above.

Heard that smart supports VoLTE technology, how to enable?
Supports buthardlycan be used.

How to enter the engineering menu, I want to change the order of networks
* # * # 4636 # * # *. If it does not work, we install a program from the Market Network or 4G LTE Switch, there are a lot of them.

How to check the performance of the microphone?
* # * # 2486 # * # *, further CQA Menu Mode>Audio>Mic Loopback, plug in your headphones and check the audibility of each microphone. You can also check the operation of the touchscreen, proximity sensor, etc. If the code does not start, select BP Tools or Factory in the fastboot menu, and wait for the new icon to appear among the applications.

In my statistics, the battery shows failures, especially after 30%
Change the battery to fresh. When buying, beware of fakes (found on both Aliexpress and Ebay). Stickers should not be, all the inscriptions on the battery stamped with paint. On both trading floors, the original is slightly used, and this is the maximum that you can buy.

Smart turns off too soon, then the charge jumps from 5 to 90%, help
Calibrate as follows: when turned on, press and hold the power button for 10 seconds until the phone restarts, then plug in the charge and do not disconnect the cable for at least half an hour after reaching 100%. Another recipe: go to fastboot, go to the item Bootloader logs and hold down the power button until the smart restarts. Both recipes are official.

Why in the statistics of the battery eats "network connection" most of all? On 4.4.4 this was not!
It is believed that with a worn out battery, Lollipop writes off energy losses to poor communication quality, at which, as you know, the power consumption of the radio part increases. Google does not consider a bug; no one is going to fix it. If you are very worried, you can put the Xposed + moduleMobileRadioActiveFix. Also turn off all tracking-scanning functions in the WiFi settings.

Little keeps the battery, what to do, the bodies are constantly awake, who does not sleep, help !!!
Please understandby myself, learn the basics in the relevant branches. Learn firstBetterBatteryStatsandWakeLockDetector. Still.

After maze I noticed that X Play catches worse, and there are few rods in the antenna.
"Sticks" for guidance only. To know exactly the signal strength (dBm - the smaller the better) can be in the About phone. But even this is not an indicator. If your copy of the bond breaks in the open, is defective or poor coverage by the operator. Each model runs a compulsory certification of the supervisory authorities, the parameters are strictly controlled, and hardly worse than in other Smart. Thus, in a very small range of the reception quality change instance to instance - can. In large - no, that's the problem.

WiFi and Bluetooth sliders are inactive, self-powered off
Or software problem or "iron". We try to flash the factory firmware, but it does not help, we carry it in for repair.

When enabled, it goes into fastboot, how to make it immediately load into Android?
If this is the only problem, run the fastboot oem fb_mode_clear command.

Explain why I can not go to the TWRP folder on Android 5.1 and above
Try to enter while in TWRP.
+ article in English:https://twrp.me/faq/datamedia.html. If everything is too difficult, place backups on the microSD.

It is better to mount the flash drive in the internal memory or keep it in the old fashioned way
In the old manner. When combined with internal can spoil the data. And take the flash drive as quickly as possible (>30Mb / s write), so as not to wait for elementary operations. Instructions how to merge: format the flash in exfat, set the type of memory as Portable, then format it as Internal and WAIT 10 min. Then we press Power off and again we wait, about 15 minutes, if the card is 128GB Class 10. Then we turn on the smart and see that the memory is Adopted Internal Storage. Cons: the combined memory is rather slow + increases power consumption.

How to set up a hidden LED for notifications?
LED, which is under the speaker grille, emergency, indicates a discharge below 3.0 V. One color, white. The craftsmen do not leave attempts to adapt the diode for notifications, look for applications in the Market (1, 2, ...), you may need root-rights. There are custom firmware with a ready built-in LED control function (CrDroid, etc.)

Discussion participants use incomprehensible words like "wipe". Where to read about the terms?
Android - Glossary

Remind, please, how to make a screenshot? And as in safe mode at the same time.
The screenshot is made by simultaneously pressing the Power + Vol Down buttons, and you can boot up with a minimum set of applications if you have a boot problem by holding the Vol Down button.
