    I should also have said, if what you were thinking of was basically a modified version of @munchy_cool 's flash-all script(s), I could edit my own if I knew which operations to keep in and which to remove. I know I've read that non-HLOS.bin may be the key file, but that's a really uneducated...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][PAYTON][NIGHTLIES]Lineage OS 17.1

    @ThE_MarD, that would be awesome, thanks. RETUS or FI would work for me. I'm not even sure whether the firmware is different with regard to data on T-Mobile. I chose to update to FI since it's still getting security updates, but might return to RETUS before going to LOS again if it makes more...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][PAYTON][NIGHTLIES]Lineage OS 17.1

    @ThE_MarD, thanks, but last couple of times I tried, I didn't even install Magisk. I did reboot to recovery each time and install OpenGapps nano, but that's it. I'm now seeing these problems other people are having. I wonder whether anyone who's successfully flashed from stock can precisely...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][PAYTON][NIGHTLIES]Lineage OS 17.1

    I've tried every variation of LOS installation I can think of, but I cannot successfully retain mobile data. If anyone who has faced this issue has any tips, I'd love to know. I also have found that I cannot boot the LOS recovery from fastboot, so I have to at least temporarily boot into TWRP...

    @nighthawk1986, sorry that wasn't an option. Hope you can return it. I was actually happy to find with mine that not only should I be able to use LOS, but I've currently flashed it as a FI version, which brings me up to stock Pie with October 2020 security updates.

    @nighthawk1986, I have an XT1900-1 with bootloader unlocked. But, read this. Firmwares are different. I never had Alexa or Amazon ads, etc. I wonder if you can use one of the stock images (e.g., RETUS from lolinet) and either Lenovo's tool or one of the bootloader flashing scripts to get rid of...

    @ThE_MarD, thanks again for the help and advice.

    Now I've installed TWRP on stock the correct way (fastboot boot twrp.x.x.img, then install zip from sdcard). I managed to also then install Magisk, also rebooting back into recovery and flashing it to both slot_b and slot_a. Question: Before I try LOS again and possilbly lose data (I've gone...

    Ran into the same loss of data issue trying to flash LOS again. Back to using scripts/LMSA/LRSA to re-flash stock. If anyone has any ideas what could be wrong on my end, other than formatting data (which I've been doing), please reply. I just realized that the instructions from LOS have...

    Hey, @ThE_MarD, I did Format Data each time, so that wouldn''t be the culprit. Ultimately, even after going back to stock using Lolinet firmware and scripts from the return-to-stock thread, I was getting reboots after initial setup, so I ended up getting LRSA and restoring from there. Turns...

    Sorry if this is clear to others, but OP #2 states that backups/restores should be done with SyberHexen TWRP, while OP #3 links to post #168, which recommends using latest official payton TWRP. Is there a definitive choice here? Will backup/restore work using latest payton TWRP? Thanks.

    Thanks for this follow-up. I missed it. I actually moved to that build of CM13 and switched to a different Moto E (had two, one with a broken screen and evidently one maybe with a bad mobo, so I franken-swapped). The phone is actually running quite well now with the 11/8 CM13.
