Yes, unfortunately I broke my MOTO G8 Plus and a friend gave me his old MOTO G6 Play to use. So yes, It's quite an old phone but with your instructions I could at least ROOT it and change the ROM...LOL Thanks again..

The steps listed in this process WILL wipe your userdata. If you have anything you need to save back it up first.
Prerequisite:
Unlocked bootloader.
FOR LINUX USERS. If you're using a linux distro then congrats this is all you should have to run. open command prompt and run this. "sudo apt-get install adb" without quotation marks. then follow Motorolas bootloader guide in provided link. continue to step 1 after.
FOR WINDOWS USERS.
ADB/Fastboot installed on your machine ( https://developer.android.com/studio...platform-tools ) If you have issues with commands make sure you have a current build of ADB and fastboot.
Minimal adb/fastboot v1.4.3 installer can be found here. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569952951

DECRYPTION AND BACKUP.
NOTICE
IF YOU YOU ARE USING THE 32GB MODEL OR THE 16GB MODEL AND ARE ON ANDROID 9 (PIE) PLEASE USE THE ANDROID 9 (PIE) MODEL TWRP. USERS WITH THE 16GB MODEL AND THE 32GB MODEL ON ANDROID 8 (OREO) WILL STILL NEED TO USE SEPERATE TWRPS
MAKE SURE TO SWIPE RIGHT IN TWRP TO ALLOW SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS.
Step 1.) Download and extract twrp image to the ADB/Fastboot folder on your computer.
FOR ANDROID 8 (OREO)
16gb model twrp: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117921836
32gb model twrp: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117927211
FOR ANDROID 9 (PIE)
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117921849
Step 2.) Reboot to your bootloader. You can do this by turning on your device and holding the power button and volume down button at the same time.
Step 3.) Once the device reboots to the bootloader type the following from your computer with your phone connected via USB.
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Step 4.) Once TWRP boots from your computer type (it may take a bit to boot because it is trying to decrypt your userdata, but it will fail and prompt for a password. Just click cancel)
Step 5.) time to backup your stock recovery and stock boot. use these commands one at a time.
Code:
adb pull /dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/boot stockboot.img
adb pull /dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/recovery stockrecovery.img
This will backup your stock boot and recovery images if you need to revert to stock later.
Step 6.) time to decrypt which will also format your data so make sure to make a backup. while still booted in twrp touch the "wipe" button then touch "format data", type yes and after its all done reboot to bootloader use this command.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
CONGRATS! if you read this correctly and or didnt skim then you have successfully decrypted your device and backed up your stock recovery and stock boot.img. proceed below for root process.
ROOT PROCESS.
Step 1.) Run the following command from your computer to install the TWRP image to your device.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Step 2.) Use the volume keys on the device to select boot to recovery and TWRP will boot up again. swipe right to allow modifications. IT SHOULD NOT ASK YOU FOR A PASSWORD THIS TIME IF IT DOES YOU MESSED UP DURING THE DECRYPT PROCESS
Step 3.) Follow this link to the creators site to download the disabler zip. https://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe download it to your ADB/Fastboot folder.
Step 4.) Download the Magisk Beta v20.0 and or the latest zip file from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases to your ADB/Fastboot folder. (I personally use beta so I use beta in this guide but you don't have to)
Step 5.) Run the following command to push the dm_verity force encrypt disabler and magisk zip to your device
Code:
adb push Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020.zip /tmp
adb push Magisk-v20.0.zip /tmp
This will push the Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020.zip and Magisk-v20.0.zip to your /tmp folder
Step 6.) Flash Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020.zip from TWRP using the install option and navigate to the /tmp folder to select it and install it.
Step 7.) Flash Magisk-v20.0.zip from TWRP using the install option and navigate to the /tmp folder to select it and install it.
Step 8.) Reboot your device
Step 9.) Just wait for the device to boot up. might take a bit and it might seem its in a bootloop but if you followed this guide exactly as is just wait it out it took about 5-10 minutes before i got to the "lets get started" screen after updating to pie (android 9)
Step 10.) Verify Magisk Manager is installed and the root functionality works. sometimes the manager apk wont be installed so download the magisk manager apk from the provide links. click advanced to see if the boxes are unchecked. (2022 edit) If you see magisk app and magisk needs updated you can do it but I can't confirm if it's safe and what works and doesnt after
CONGRATS! IF YOU DIDNT SKIM MY GUIDE YOU SHOULD HAVE A SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED AND ENCRYPTION DISABLED DEVICE, HAVE FUN.
IF YOU MESSED UP, DIDNT PUT A COMMAND IN CORRECTLY, SKIMMED, OR ARE INA GENUINE BOOTLOOP/BRICK THIS SECTION IS FOR YOU
Step 1.) DOWNLOAD STOCK FIRMWARE HERE FOR JETER AND CERTAIN ALJETER DEVICES (from what i can tell usa variant aljeter devices are consided jeter) https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/jeter/official/ IF YOU REMEMBER OR WROTE DOWN YOUR SW CHANNEL VERSION THEN DOWNLOAD STOCK FIRMWARE FOR BASICALLY EVERY OTHER ALJETER DEVICE HERE. https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/aljeter/official/ UNZIP STOCK FIRMWARE TO YOUR ADB/FASTBOOT FOLDER TO FLASH IT. TO REVERT BACK TO STOCK YOU HAVE TO REFLASH STOCK FIRMWARE FROM THE BOOTLOADER if your device is bootlooped or bricked or not working right you have to reflash the stock firmware your device came with. PLEASE INPUT THESE COMMANDS ONE AT A TIME DO NOT DO THEM ALL AT ONCE. I KNOW ITS A HASSLE BUT IT GUARANTEES A SUCCESSFUL REFLASH. I CANNOT EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH

Credits: @kwiksi1ver for making the original guide. @topjohnwu for magisk. @shimp208 for minimal adb/fastboot. @Spaceminer for providing the new twrps for 16gb and 32 gb devices, and @Zackptg5 for making the Universal DM-Verity, ForceEncrypt, Disk Quota Disablers.
QUICK NOTE/EDIT: SINCE I DO NOT OWN THIS DEVICE ANYMORE I CANNOT CONFIRM IT BUT YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO UPDATE TO THE LATEST MAGISK 24.3 FROM THE MAGISK APP AFTER YOU INSTALL V20, AGAIN I AM NOT ABLE CONFIRM IF IT WORKS, CAUSES BOOTLOOPS, OR ANYTHING SO KEEP THAT IN MIND, but hopefully it does work for yall
I've also updated the ADB commands for the disabler to reflect its latest version and I've updated the magisk link to topjohnwus GitHub as that's where all updates happen/ go first5Hello everyone, thank you to the people that's been helping on the guide lately, I'm sorry I haven't been posting alot some recent family tragedy has come about so I've had to refocus my attention the last week, our twrp maintainer @Spaceminer is working on updating on TWRP which will fix the issues everyone is having lately, once he is done with TWRP it will uploaded and added to the guide, thank you for your patience and as a reminder, please drive safe4Due to my brain being broke and certain things That I have done to myself, I will be spending the next couple days- few weeks in the psych ward. Not saying this for attention I'm just not the person to sugarcoat anything and feel I should at least say why you will not here from me for a bit. This is a voluntary choice to go now before it get worse. No it's not a drug problem either. As for updates to the guide I will be removing the 32gb Oreo twrp and replacing it with the pie twrp as it's been discovered the 140-6 firmware for the xt1922-9 retus model will not decrypt after swiping right to allow modifications or formating and typing yes not sure why but that change will be done before I leave later today. If there is anything else that should either be added and or removed please tell me now. I will be leaving about 10-11 a.m u.s eastern time4
Yes, absolutely. After Pie everyone needs to use the same twrp. Here's my newer one. I've added the ability to back up and restore the oem partition. I'm working on 64bit, no promises on that. It's a real pain to be honest.3
Do it like this.
1. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
2. Use the volume keys while still in fastboot to select "recovery" then hit the power button.
3. Hit cancel at the decryption screen when twrp boots up.
4. In TWRP select wipe > format > type "yes" to continue. Do not reboot the phone yet.
5. In twrp select reboot > recovery.
6. Once twrp boots up again, select mount and check the boxes for /data, /system, /vendor, /cache.
7. Now flash the universal encryption disabler.
8. Let it boot once, then go back into recovery and flash Magisk.
This should solve your problem.
