I want to install factory image of 6.0.1 marshmallow in my moto g turbo(xt1557) .

Refer to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/index-moto-g-factory-firmware-images-t3169639

Will I get further updates from motorola in it?

No, maybe security updates but no major updates

How can I install it?

(link above)

And will to lock my bootloader?.. I want it locked

Then you'd to the opposite:

fastboot oem lock

or something similar but with lock instead of unlock and without the unlock code.

I want my phone to be as it was before rooting

If you want to restore apps or data, you'd need a backup.

If it helped don't forget to press the thanks button!

Hello, I have never modded this phone, it's possible to restore stock marshmallow rom safely after trying nougat and/or oreo roms? If yes, how? Is there a complete guide?

Hey everyone I just called total wireless tech support line and was told my motto g3 osprey is not compatible with their bring our own phone program. I am fairly certain they believe this to be fact because when they run my imei it likely returns that my phone is locked to us cellular networks as I bought it from us cellular. However, i am running aospa 7 which is also nougat I also have twrp recovery. So my question is am I correct in my assumption that since I am basically running a fully custom handset I should, in theory, be able to insert any sim card from any cdma 4g lte network and my device should work fine.? Or am I way off the mark here? Please respond as soon as possible as I am anxious to get my phone turned back on while getting the best data and call plan for the last amount of debate thanks

Where can I ask about Android development of Moto g turbo?

Depends on the question... Specific development issues like writing/porting code go in Development section, general questions in Q&A section.

No offense, but did you read my answer? If you have a general question, as it appears, you would ask it in the Q&A section. If there isn't a thread there that is similar or about what your asking, you will have to start a new one.

What is the question?

I need the blank flash of the Moto G Turbo Edition XT1556 Merlin, does anyone have it? help me please.

People need to de some research before asking questions. The afore mentioned question has been dealth with numerous times, and we often sound like a broken record player on repeat.

Motorola does not release the files required for blankflash. Some files had been leaked in the past by some ex moto employee, but these do not roam the internet anymore.
Either go to your nearest service center and see if they can replace mobo or be ready to use your phone as a brick.

If you read up a couple posts you will find your answer. Take or send it to a Moto repair center to be reflashed.
