Latest Firmware for XT1642 - Relock Bootloader for OTA?

[HE4VYCR0WN]

Hello, two short questions

What's the latest official firmware for XT1642 and where to download?
I only found old ones.

If I relock Bootloader to get the latest OTA, am I be able to reopen it again?
Do I need my e-mail address I used for the first code or can I make a new one?

Thanks

I think you dont' need to relock the bootloader for OTA. I find old firmware too and i didn't test it.

The lock/unlock state of your bootloader isn't relevant to OTA updates, you just need stock recovery and an unmodified system partition.

When I got the phone I got an OTA with MJP24.139-63, but when I flashed MJP24.139-48 it always says "Your system is up to date".
I thought this was because of the unlocked bootloader.
I checked immediately after flashing stock firmware, I didn't modify it but still got no OTA.

It is not because of the unlocked bootloader... I can't tell you exactly why it said that but I can say that isn't the cause.

Remember if you downgraded you are in a mixed state... Not every "piece" can be downgraded, I would bet when you flashed a couple of the parts it said 'Pre-flash validation failed' or something like that, meaning that partition was older and could not be downgraded, typically the bootloader and gpt.bin which is the partition table. That could be the issue, or it could be something else, it's hard to say. There has been some rumor that if the update server has handed out a specific OTA package to certain device for some reason it may not offer it to it to that device again under some conditions.

I don't understand why lenovo don't give us the last full firmware for our device... Sadly i didn't make a backup before flashing kernel and recovery.

Have you requested it? You can contact Moto support and ask for it, that's how we got such a large collection for the Moto G 2015, a few people request each firmware image and we share. It can take a couple of days to a few months but Moto usually comes through.

I asked for it just seconds ago, I will keep you up to date when I hear something new.
Thanks for your help.

its because MJP24.139-63 is the latest .MJP24.139-63 is the the previous update. you need to be on MJP24.139-63 to get the android N upgrade.

But he can't have MJP24.139-63 because he doesn't have the OTA update.
Motorola doesn't want to give us the last full firmware. I asked them.

Which firmware did you flash? maybe an older firmware will work. I found this: XT1621-XT1622-XT1642_ATHENE_MPJ24.139-23.4_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
