03. Flash the global Firmware
Download a copy of the global firmware. Maybe we will find other versions on lolinet later on.
Extract the firmware and open the included flashfile.xml. Copy and paste the contents into the formular on this website to get all necessary fastboot commands.

Boot your phone into fastboot and open a cmd windows in the folder of the global firmware. Copy the commands from the website UP TO and including "fastboot oem config unset cmdl" and paste them into your cmd prompt.
How booting in fastboot on Razr2022?

Hmm update is not compatible with your device, did the other update no problems.
Hey mate,
Seems like we're on a very similar journey with our RAZR 2022s.

So, you might remember me harassing you with questions a couple of months ago, and that I successfully converted my CN to GB like you. Then used Magisk etc to hide the root and thankfully found some magical person on the threads who solved for the Microsoft InTune dilemma (because I suddenly couldn't connect to work, which was a big problem).

However, seemingly like you, I noticed I'm not getting any updates come through OTA.

Have you solved for this? And, if so, what did you do?

I had one update just had to remove magisk first, second update is saying not compatible did you switch to EU channel?

Right, gotcha ... but don't we depend on Magisk to hide the root from other apps?

I set my update channel to Asia/Pacific, because I'm in Australia.

That was actually how I caught up on this thread and saw your comments about an inability to update, because I was wondering if it was due to setting my update channel to APAC and was looking for the instructions again on how to set it to Europe.

That must be the reason because you still get notified of the update just won't install even with magisk

Lucky that you still can boot into bootloader. If your bootloader is locked you are done, if not download the chinese firmware and flash it according to post 1.

You didn't confirm if bootloader is unlocked, you definitely using the correct ROM?

Ok so if for some reason the EU second update won't flash can I download the whole newer ROM and flash that?
What are the steps do I have to follow the guide again or is there a simple fastboot flash over existing EU ROM?

Which ROM did you download you should use the one that came when you got the phone

    FIRST OFF: If you have not bought the phone yet and plan on getting it: DON'T. The camera is broken and Motorola refuses to communicate with their customers. Is a fix coming? I someone working on it? Who knows.

    Join our Telegram Group at t.me/moto30u!
    The guide and all infos are always
    updated on Rentry.

    ATTENTION: As with all modifications his will void your warranty and you might brick your device if you don't know what you are doing.
    I do not take any responsibility for your device.

    Safetynet does NOT pass if you dont use magisk afterwards.
    Widevine is L1 but Apps like Netflix do not work.

    Your device identifier will STAY XT2241-1, this is not a full conversion.
    DO NOT RE-LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER! THIS WILL DEFINITELY BRICK THE DEVICE.

    You need adb and fastboot installed, also you should know the basic functionality of both.

    01. Unlock your Bootloader

    Go to the official Motorola website and follow their well documented guide.
    Make sure to backup all your files before unlocking as your device will be wiped.

    02. Make a backup of ALL partitions on your device (Optional but RECOMMENDED)
    Download the Motorola Rescue and Smart Assistant. This will allow you to download the latest CN Firmware.
    Use the "rescue" function, download the firmware and flash it to your device.

    We do this to root the device with magisk to backup all of our partitions before flashing the Global.
    You can find the downloaded Firmware at "C:\ProgramData\RSA\Download\RomFiles".

    Copy the boot.img to your device, install magisk on the phone and use the patcher function on the boot.img.
    Then copy the newly generated patched .img to your PC and flash it / or boot it with "fastboot flash new-boot.img" or "fastboot boot new-boot.img".

    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.

    Code:
    adb shell
    su

    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.

    03. Flash the global Firmware
    Download a copy of the global firmware. Maybe we will find other versions on lolinet later on.
    Extract the firmware and open the included flashfile.xml. Copy and paste the contents into the formular on this website to get all necessary fastboot commands.

    Boot your phone into fastboot and open a cmd windows in the folder of the global firmware. Copy the commands from the website UP TO and including "fastboot oem config unset cmdl" and paste them into your cmd prompt.

    04. Change your update channel
    Use the command "fastboot oem config carrier reteu" to set your update channel to reteu (Which is EU).

    05. First Boot / black screen
    Use "fastboot reboot" to boot into the system. The welcome screen now looks different and you can select more languages.
    Go through the initial setup, if you skip the google sign in you might not get a black screen.

    IF you get a black screen at any point (with a non working back button) reboot your phone into fastboot (power button + VOL down).
    Use the following commands to delete all data and reboot the device. You will now be able to go through the setup.

    Code:
    fastboot erase apdp
    fastboot erase apdpb
    fastboot erase debug_token
    fastboot erase carrier
    fastboot erase userdata
    fastboot erase metadata
    fastboot erase ddr
    fastboot reboot

    --> Check OTA updates, you should be able to update to 16-16-28 immediatly.

    Think that's only if you restore original firmware

    Remembering that the original firmware is the CN ROM. Better not lock.

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

    Where to find Firmware:
    - Lolinet
    - 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

    How to Update:
    If you don't get OTA updates simply follow these steps. You need a PC with working global ADB and fastboot.

    01. Download the latest Firmware from lolinet
    02. Extract it, open servicefile.xml and copy the contents into this website
    03. Reboot your phone into fastboot (adb reboot fastboot or press and hold Power + Volume Down)
    04. Open a CMD window in the extracted folder, paste the commands from the website and hit enter
    05. Don't disconnect the phone until the update has finished.

    It might be possible to upgrade by putting the firmware zip into the root of your phone, booting into recovery and selecting install firmware from zip. I didnt test this yet.

    I updated my locked bootloader device(frankenstein:))) via fastboot with no data loss🥳

    Important!!! Only when updating the rom of the same region. e.g RETEU: S3SQ32.16-16-28 --> S3SQ32.16-53-9 --> S3SQ32.16-53-13 such as.
    Don't RETCN --> RETEU versions!!!

    Steps:

    1. We extract the rom/updated rom .zip
    e.g : XT2241-2_EQS_RETEU_12_S3SQ32.16-53-13_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_cid50_CFC.xml
    2. We put the flashfile.bat we created (2.post: ''02. Extract, open servicefile.xml and copy the content to this site'') into the rom folder you extracted. Edit, we delete these lines:
    fastboot erase apdp
    fastboot erase apdpb
    fastboot erase debug_token
    fastboot erase carrier
    fastboot erase userdata
    fastboot erase metadata
    fastboot erase ddr
    And save it.
    3. Download the mfastboot ADB i gave and put it in the rom folder you extracted.
    4. Everything is ready, put your device in fastboot mode and click on the ''flashfile.bat'' file.

    Enter when the flashing is finished. Your device will start.
    Up-to-date software is ready to use without deleting any of your data. Enjoy👍
