Sorry, I know this is a thread for moto e6 plus, but do you guys know what is the command to unlock Moto e6 play XT2029-3 bootloader, I tried fastboot flashing unlock_critical but it returns that its a unknown command, my phone got bricked after this last OTA update and its giving me red state warning and its stuck in bootloop, its a second hand phone so no warranty, if you guys could help me I would really appreciate it...

Hi guys, I wanted to comment that the ramdisk of the 32-bit boot is in a different format than the 64-bit, so when you flash magisk through TWRP having the 32-boot, it cannot partition the ramdisk, and therefore, not you can have normal root access. I wanted to comment it in case some dev does xd, if they don't understand me I'm sorry, I'm using google transalate xD

Root is possible. The way I achieved it is first to follow the official bootloader unlock method given by Motorola. Then install Magisk Manager V 7.5.1 (latest as of today). After that have magisk patch the boot image and recovery image, and flash them both through fastboot. It will say the boot partition is signed but when you Flash it to the recovery partition it will tell you the image is either not signed or corrupt. Don't worry about this, it does not affect loading back into system or back into the bootloader or recovery. Remember, after this you will have to boot through recovery every time you reboot or you will not have root until you do. Unfortunately I am still trying to work on TWRP, and it is going rather slow as this is my first attempt at compiling a custom recovery and I am no developer, and am learning as I go... Hope I helped!!!
Can Magisk Manager actually create a patched boot image without root? Didn't know that. Btw, thanks for doing all this work!

Yes, it is with the command:

fastboot oem lock

or

fastboot flashing lock
Al parecer también hablas español, el problema es que al reinstalar la rom oficial desde lmsa me dice que esta en desbloqueo ilegal, solamente pongo ese comando y se arregla ese problema? O debo hacer algo mas?

Supongo que al poner el comando ya no te aparecera el mensaje de desbloqueo ilegal ya que el booloader está bloqueado

Is there any way to root / unlock bootloader / install TWRP in the European 64GB Dual-SIM version, XT2025-2?
I have the stock rom with August 2019 patches and tried using multiple ways described here to unlock it, but didn't get anywhere.

First I tried fastboot flashing unlock_critical, didn't work. Tried installing latin american version via the Recovery Tool, didn't work. Tried to install TWRP with same tool, nope either. Then I tried the mtk-su tool, got error 4 even thought it should in theory be compatible. Kinda losing hope. Anyone got any tips or ideas what I could try?

You have to do it with the firmware that they passed previously, if not, it will not leave you.

It's this: mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/pokerp/official/RETLA/

Version 76.01

hey! saw your replie on my comment about Moto E6 plus root, sorry for being late, i'm not an active reddit user.

If you still interested in it there is a written guide on how to do it, I'll try to transtale it using google translator and fix the translation errors
the reason why I'm sendind those messages is because the thread got archived
here is the link:

/add http before :

since my english still sucks a bit I used Google Translator and and double-checked for possible errors, I've read everything and it is understandable.

Hi everyone!
I have been using AOSP 10 arm64 AB for months now, the phhusson one, it works amazing in my 4/64.
Today i tried to install AOSP 11, same arm, same developer. But it ended in bootloop.
I've tried everything, permissive, reinstall it after formatting data, anything worked.
Has anyone tried android 11 with this device? can anyone give me a stable GSI?

That AOSP 11 GSI still is beta, you will have to wait for phhusson to release a stable AOSP 11 GSI, or you may try with other GSIs how Lineage OS 18, Bliss 14, Pixel GSI, etc.
