Working/Bugs

I have just tested on 16 GB variant and all seems to be working. If something is broken lemme know.

IMPORTANT NOTE :

At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either SuperSU or flash any of the verity disabler zips there in xda

Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well

If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data

Installation Guide

Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
Reboot to bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary
boot)

Even though I have the plus variant, it's cool to see these features popping up.

xt1670 model

Hi Santhosh
Will this TWRP work on Moto G5 model xt1670?
If so, can it be rooted using twrp temporary boot?

EDIT: I have tried this several time, I'm always getting stuck at boot, after the first data wipe, only solution is to install stock system again.
I have the Modem Version: M8937_8000.122.02.40R, 32GB
I'm offering to test

Thanks

Works fine for the most part, though reboot options Bootloader and Power Off doesn't work, just restarts normally.

Unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp, factory reset, good to go. Sadly no root though.

Try phh su.

Flash it through twrp: https://superuser.phh.me/superuser.zip

Then installed the phh superuser app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....phh.superuser

Bootlooping

Hi guys, I got bootloop in my moto g5 after TWRP boot/install, should I open a new thread or somebody can help here?

Depending on your phone version, you might need to flash system using fastboot.

So i believe TWRP works as intended and root is also achieved via phh/whatever?

If all works fine for you would like you to make reply in the thread with detailed flashing instructions as i am not sure why few in thread have issues

can this version of twrp be used for POTTER version of moto G5 plus?

.sirhc · Mar 24, 2017

After installing TWRP my Phone stucks at the "Your device has been unlocked" screen. My system seems to be gone. I've downloaded the image from the other thread and tried to sideload it, but twrp says it's in the wrong format. TWRP boots fine
(Anyone who can upload a fully working NANDROID or sth like that?)

What can i do :/?

Edit: Solved. Unzipped the firmware and flashed manually via fastboot. Working fine!
But then again at the startup of the recovery, there's the encryption message. What to wipe now, that it'll work? Wiping /data ends in boot loop...

Did you tried wiping data, and formatting data? Remember that wiping /data is where your apps and settings are stored, and formatting /data/media is the massive storage... Maybe if you wipe both it would work

After
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I'm booting into recovery, cancel the encryption password verification, swipe to allow modification, wipe & format data -> Bootloop

Flashing system (and only system, not recovery etc) -> Phone boots normally, twrp ist gone ...
