TWRP 3.1.1-0 Moto Z2 play [albus]

[Santhosh M]

TWRP 3.1.1-0 Moto Z2 play (albus) ​

Latest TWRP changelog :

3.1.1-0 full changelog


Working/Bugs :

I have just basically tested and all seems to be working (including decryption of /data). If something is broken lemme know.

Please do read the installation guide note !

IMPORTANT NOTE :

• At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either SuperSU or flash any of the verity disabler zips there in xda
  
  
• Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well
  
  If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data

• 
  

Installation Guide :

• Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
• Reboot to bootloader
• fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary
  boot)

Who succeeded in installing SuperSU?
I've tried all the files, including 2.82/ 2.82 SR1...
All can not patch the kernel and give out an error.
Just tried to put "phh superuser". Also an error ...

Now I am facing bootloop, after TWRP flash, If anybody know stock firmware flashing or tool available so far for Z2 Play model XT 1710-10. No factory firmware or tool available for flashing, any idea ??? help will be highly appreciated. I want to complete flash via fastboot. Bootloader is unlocked.

Question.... Will the boot loader unlock for Verizon?

Question.... Will the boot loader unlock for Verizon?

Wrong thread mate. Such questions go to the General Q/A section and not a development thread.
Anyways, the conventional method for unlocking moto devices is for the retail versions only. If your device is on a contract / locked by your carrier (Verizon in this case) it might not be possible. Contact Verizon if the device can be unlocked or not. Cheers

Dear Santhosh,

twrp_3.1.1-0_albus is not working on my Z2 play in both the commands (temporarily and permanently flash), moreover, in temporary command i.e. fastboot flash recovery ********.img is working but it is stuck on TWRP main starting phase, not going ahead, this is the problem. If any fix available please post it and oblige. Any help is highly appreciated.

How about flashing Dm-verity and Forced Encryption Disabler via TWRP?
I wrote detailed assumption on moto Z2 Help thread.

(Added on Jul/31)
Flasing Dm-verity and Forced Encryption Disabler is not best idea.
Flashing Magisk is better solution.

Dear Santhosh, thanks for your work!

I believe there is bug when selecting storage for backups for example. TWRP 3.1.1-0 does not recognize "portable" micro sd storage correctly. MicroSD storage is only listed as 0MB and it is not possible to select the radio button. The micro sd card is not encrypted. I tried two cards, a fat32 32gb and an exFat 64gb. Both work on Android and Windows.

Here is what I tried

- fastboot boot twrp.img
- entered password (but also tried to just cancel)
- click backup
- click "select store"

result:
- internal storage (49123mb) [or 0mb when cancel password entry]
- micro sd card (0mb)
- USB OTG (0mb)


Any ideas how to solve this?

> SD card is a kernel side issue and i need to fix it.

Thanks for confirming the bug.

> Unfortunately i don't have the device anymore

OK, I understand.

If feasible could you please let us know what you would have (tried to) fix exactly? Just in case another developer emerges

I just got an USB OTG adapter. I tested it on a Nexus first. I backup all partitions successfully with TWRP 3.0.2 just to make sure the OTG adapter works.

On the z2 play the OTG adapter is recognized. I can even backup the smaller partitions (EFS, logo, boot, and so on). But I am not able to backup the system partition. The backup process stops at 2% (70MB out of 3140MB). Pressing the cancel button freezes TWRP. Have to longpress the power button to reset the device.

Another (minor) bug I noticed, when I boot into TWRP, I get the "enter password" screen but touches/clicks are not registered. I have to turn off and on the device first. Then I can swipe/touch/click again (and also the "swipe to unlock" appears).
