How To Guide Convert your Moto x30 Pro (CN) to Edge 30 Ultra (EU)

[naifzack]

Global Firmware:
- EQS_G_S3SQ32.16-16-22 (Brazilian)
- EQS_G_S3SQ32.16_16_28 (Thanks to @onken)

Where to find Firmware:
- Lolinet (not yet)
- Rescue and Smart Assistant (only for your original device)

It would be great if some Edge 30 Ultra buyers could download the global firmware through the Rescue and Smart Assistant and share a zip.

Tools:
- Universal Mount System RW (Guide)
-> Fix for Android 12

- Universal Safetynet Fix Magisk Module

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

Really disappointing. Will it be resolved in future system upgrades?

Always L3 only and not working Netflix ( and maybe more )

Got to the point where I unlocked the bootloader and am now trying to use rescue but it won't go any further. Anyone who can make a short video guide would be grateful?

 

[Killuminati91]

Interesting. I just returned to CN and cant use the Tool anymore as well. Doesnt properly recognize my device. Good that I have a full backup.

@Bluiquid Did you change versions before or did you just unlock the BL? What software version are you on?

I haven't done anything at all other than unlocking the bootloader.
Possibly one thing is that I turned on the option to unlock the bootloader in the developer settings before doing the procedure of unlocking the bootloader. I saw that it doesn't say anything about this but assumed it can't hurt? Can I bypass the step of having to download the latest software from the program?


Edit: Now I got the firmware download started!

I apologize for taking up your time again, but I would like to clarify this situation.
Can you please tell me what information about the Software Channel is present in Settings - About phone?
I attach my information in a screenshot.
The Software Channel is still Chinese "cmcc".
But the command "fastboot getvar all" shows that the Software Channel has changed:

(bootloader) ro.carrier: reteu

How about you?

Thank you! Already saw your post HERE

I bought my Motorola edge 30 ultra (moto x 30 pro CN) from Aliexpress
it came with global ROM ( EQS_G_S3SQ32.16_16_28)

*I did try to Change the update channel by using the command "fastboot oem config carrier reteu" to set the update channel to reteu. it didn't change it, still shows (software channel: RETCN )

*it works after i Flash the global Firmware (EQS_RETEU_12_S3SQ32.16-53-9) from (Lolinet)
after Flashing the firmware do not exit fastboot Change the update channel by using the command "fastboot oem config carrier reteu" to set the update channel to reteu then you can exit fastboot.






******** be careful *******

FLASHING the global Firmware (EQS_RETEU_12_S3SQ32.16-53-9) from (Lolinet) BY USING STEP#3 FROM @Killuminati91 GUIDE (BY FASTBOOT) WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA .

TAKE BACKUP FOR :
WHATSAPP
GOOGLE BACKUP FOR (APPS DATA)
SMS
PHONE CALLS
PHOTOS & VIDEIOS

I don't understand why netflix works on my edge 20 pro with unlocked bootloader but my new edge 30 fusion which also has unlocked bootloader can't even start netflix gets an error code. Both phones are from China converted to global rom.

 

[diewellen]

after i convert from eu to cn ,my update channel is also eu,even i use the command “fastboot oem config carrier retcn”,what should i do to convert update channel from eu to cn

 

[witchpixie]

Hey everyone. I have the x30 pro cn version. Is there a benefit to flash it with the global rom? I live in Canada, everything works fine. 5G works with no problem. Some apps are crashing but no major issues.
Tx in advanced

Hey just curious which website you bought your phone off of? Also if you would consider it worth whatever you paid. Fast charging is a huge sell for me and if it doesn't come with the 125 watt charger it may not be worth it.

Thnx for your time.

 

[sev7en]

Working Android auto, contact sync and assisstant out of the box. A slightly different UI and less bloat but that's basically it. Oh and of course more language options.

@diewellen : you just have to repeat the guide with a Chinese ROM. Search for xt2241-1 firmware on Google. If you can't find it I'll upload my copy later.

Hello,
I have it too. What's about the updates? CN version are getting faster releases?

 

[fofo00o]

since I changed to global eu ROM I'm not getting any update 16-53-9 stuck with this update can someone help me how to update the phone without loosing data ?

Locked bootloader? My bootloader cannot be unlocked...

 

[Killuminati91]

@cascade128 You can try the recovery method, I dont know if that one works and it MIGHT brick your device. Can not help with the frankenstein device of yours sadly.

Once you reboot back into the system open a CMD-prompt on your PC, open an adb-shell as root and backup your partitions to your internal memory.

You can find all img files in your internal memory afterwards. Copy them to your PC and keep them somewhere safe. These contain IMEI, modem etc. so dont share them.

Hi
I got all the .img files from the [optional] backup and am considering restoring them in an attempt to relock the bootloader. The unlocked bootlocker is making the device unusable due to a lot of apps not working even with Magisk and the necessary modules. Any guides to restoring a device using the .img files?
TIA / Jon

 

[Killuminati91]

I'd flash the original CN rom first. If you can get your hands on the exact version from your backup I'd go for that one. Then flash all img files from your backup to their corresponding partitions. They should be named after the partition already.

e.g. "fastboot flash abl_a abl_a.img" and so on.

Remember that your backup is also magisk affected, so completely reset the device after that and once again flash the CN firmware WITH the delete commands.
Finally you can follow other guides to relock the bootloader, it probably also requires you to flash the original CN firmware in the process. (In this step I'd go for the NEWEST CN firmware directly from the rescue tool)

I can not guarantee this to work and it might brick your device, but I THINK this is the best way to not end up with a hard brick (by making sure that the system is absolutely stock).

Thanks! I'll give it a try. A bit uncertain how to flash the original CN Rom (I have the exact file), since the Lenovo Rescue tool wont let me flash. Any other way (fastboot etc)?
