Hello,
I recently bought a moto g 2014 XT1068 Dual Sim, and I've already updated to 5.0.2.
I really wanted to get it rooted, and as I've seen, it is only possible by first unlocking the BL.
I wanted to ask if there is a safe method to to that, since my device is Dual Sim, and I dont know if the methods provided in the forum work
I'm aware that the warranty will probably be voided (I'm from europe and bought it here also), but honestly I just want the root access.
Please just tell me, if possible, if there is any safe method to unlock the BL and after that, to root my Dual SIM.
Thank you for your patience,
maximuns

is this working on lollipop 5.0.2?
I´ve got the XT1068 dual sim too and I rooted it with this method:
1) Unlock bootloader on the Motorola homepage following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/wip-unlock-bootloader-moto-g-2nd-gen-t2875728
Minimal ADB and Fastboot does the job.Unlocking BL will erase your userdata.
2) Now you have two options:
a) Flash TWRP 2.8.5.0: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-8-2-0-touch-recovery-t2979149 (I used 2.8.5.0, 2.8.6.0 surely will work too)
b) Or just boot into it, the way I did : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/guide-root-moto-g-2014-flash-custom-t2955243
Command for flashing (TWRP will replace your stock recovery):
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot [B]flash[/B] openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-titan.img
(You can rename the file for instance in recovery.img, then the command will be fastboot flash recovery.img)
Reboot into TWRP recovery,flash latest superSU (earlier versions will cause bootloops): http://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip (it should be placed in internal or external storage) via the Install menu.
Wipe cache and dalvik.
Command for booting into TWRP ( TWRP will not be flashed on your phone, it´s just temporary.As described in the linked thread above the recovery.img-file has to resist in the adb and fastbot folder):
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot[B] boot[/B] openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-titan.img
Your phone will restart in temporary custom recovery.
Flash the latest superSU: http://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip from TWRP (it should be placed in internal or external storage) via the Install menu.
Wipe cache and dalvik,reboot phone and you´re done.

Wolfcity's method will work with Lollipop 5.0.2.
I took the same way and everything works fine.

Thank you so much for your reply! I'll think about it, I'm afraid of doing something wrong and get the device boken, since I'd loose the warranty, but when I decide decide to do it ill report to you the result
once again thanks!

ok i've done it ahah
I just cant boot the recovery.img, it says 'No such file or directory', help???
Did you enter the path and file name correctly?
Check it again.
The recovery file has to be inside the Minimal Adb and Fastboot folder. Paste it there, open the folder, press Shift and do a right click inside the folder. From the menu choose "open a command window here".
Now enter the above adb commands.
Like Lars wrote the path must be correct. If you installed Adb and Fastboot in the root of C: the path should be " C:\Minimal Adb and Fastboot."
Just one thing,if you are annoyed by the bootloader unlocked warning screen just flash (before or after superSU) this logo.bin:https://mega.co.nz/#!cc1AGa6Y!6ctYLqVYWyfhPBU5rF1TX_r9jjF68cP3qcknAWU2DjE
That replaces the warning screen with the stock bootlogo.

Thanks, got it and working flawlessly. Just a question, when I want to flash anything I can repeat the process again (Boot into twrp) with no need to flash it?
Yes you can do it but why don't you want to flash the custom recovery?
If you don´t want to flash roms,kernels etc. all the time,there is no need to flash a custom recovery. You can flash anything like superSU,logo.bin etc. by booting into TWRP, also backup/restore works this way on the Moto G. You can´t do this with a Nexus 7, it won´t boot into TWRP.
Some people want to change as less as possible as long they stay stock.When it comes to custom roms and kernels flashing the custom recovery is the better choice for sure.

Well, you can still flash it via bootloader
Unzip the file, reboot your phone to bootloader, open a terminal (or equivalent) and use this command in the directory where you extracted the files

Very nice o/ :good:
suppose i want to make a backup of the "ugly" stock unlocked warning screen, what would be the command for that?
I don't know... maybe the original stock rom has it.

Quick question, can our phones have boot sounds??
The recoveries I post are and tested for Lenovo Z2 Zuk Z2 Pro ONLY!
Requirements:
Unlocked phone bootloader
and your phone booted in fastboot mode, otherwise it will not work.
Recovery.img is the same recovery found on Lenovo forums (link below)
Download from MEGA
Mega
Images are in thumbnails, click on them to enlarge
Short guide:
1) Simply extract the zip
2) Open cmd.exe and cd to the directory you extracted
3) Put your phone in fastboot mode by shutting down your phone, if you have unlocked your phone, you will get the following boot message
"Your phone cannot be checked for file corruption...etc", press Volume Down, hightlight "Fastboot" option, press Power Button
4) Paste the following commands:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot recovery.img
You should get the same results I got:
Long guide for newbies with Windows 10 [the same might be for Windows 7/8]:
1) Download the zip I have uploaded and extract it to a folder with your favorite archive manager [I use WinRAR] and open it
2) Hold Shift and Right Click on empty space in the folder
3) Left click on Open command window here or open command prompt here
4) Put your phone in fastboot mode by shutting down your phone, power it on and if you have unlocked your phone, you will get the following boot message
"Your phone cannot be checked for file corruption...etc", press Volume Down, hightlight "Fastboot" option, press Power Button
5) Paste the following commands by copying one line each time
Code:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot recovery.img

Recovery 3.0.8 was taken from:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le...t/twrp-recovery-zuk-z2-standard-pro-t3415395/
credits go to @raimondomartire
Recovery 3.1 was found on official Lenovo Forums:
http://bbs.lenovomobile.cn/z2pro/t508552/
Google translated Lenovo Forum Page:
https://translate.google.com/transl...n&u=http://bbs.lenovomobile.cn/z2pro/t508552/
Q&A:
Q: I do the same steps you did, in command prompt after pasting your commands I get the following: "< waiting for device >
or I wait for long periods of time or I get a [ERROR] message
A: Chances are 100%, you have the wrong drivers or not drivers installed, most devices use their own drivers for fastboot mode or adb/fastboot commands
If you have a Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro like me, your device needs to be identified as "ShenQi Composite ADB Interface" in device manager.
Not "Android" or "Android ADB Interface" and because of that fastboot does not identify your device at all
Q: Why do you use 2 commands (fastboot flash and fastboot flash) instead of one?
A: I am not 100% sure but I think fastboot flash recovery, flashes the recovery image you have selected [permanently, until you flash a different one] in your device and you can boot into it anytime you want without using a PC
and the second boots your phone with the recovery image but does not flash it, meaning you keep the stock or the one you have flashed in the past.
So I use the first commmand to permanently flash the recovery and the second to boot the phone in recovery mode without using any phone button combinations to boot into, saves me the time and hassle.
Q: Why use Chinese Custom Recovery instead of an English one?
A: This recovery has Chinese and English Language support. However, if you go to the translated google forum link which I have posted below, the thread's title is: Z2 pro Brush] [zuk z2Pro] Twrp Recovery 3.10 update, support Andrews 7.0 7.1 7.1.2ROM
So I think, Recoveries need to also support the custom ROMS you want to flash, also it is taken from official lenovo forums and chances are they have added more features and fixes.
For example using 3.0.8 recovery I couldn't install LineageOS 14.1 custom rom, I was getting Error 7 when I was trying to flash
Q: I get Error 7 when I try to Flash a Custom ROM:
A: Flash 3.1 TWRP Recovery, the custom recovery you have flashed, does not support the custom ROM you want to flash.
Q: I no longer have open command prompt here after intalling Windows 10 Creators update, I have Open Powershell instead, help?
A: Read the following webpage:
http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/cmd-here-windows-10-context-menu-add/
It provides a registry fix which adds/restores "open command window here" in Windows 10 Context Menu
Q: Custom Recovery 3.1 is in Chinese, how do I change it to English?
A: See the following images
Tested on Windows 10 x64 Pro with Creators Update, should work for Windows 7/8 as well.

Seems to me you copy and paste it.
Because the link is way too big, xda forums shorten it (notice the dots).

I am having problems with this Chinese twrp why not get fixed in the bootloader nor accept after even running without installing the program supersu via twrp
Hello All,
So originally I had TWRP 3.0 on my Z2 pro, and i attempted to just install the 3.1 img file from it(per another instructional video from the 7.1 mokee thread), and after installing the recovery file, my phone restarted, however now when I attempt to go into Recovery mode from the boot menu, my phone just goes to a blank screen.
I've tried to flash the image from CMD to see if i could essentially "re flash" 3.1 TWRP, but I always get this message(see attached image). What am i typing in wrong in CMD? As you can see, the directory name is right, as well as the fastboot code. I'm also IN fastboot mode on my phone already. I changed the file name of the folder containing the recovery from it's orginal name to make it shorter, but that should not matter at all. It seems as if CMD can't find the folder though?
Well XDA won't let me post a damn picture(how am i supposed to ask for help if i can't show people what im doing), so I guess if someone would PM me i can post the image.
People do you try to flash the recoveries right after unlocking your bootloader?
Because if you can't flash the recovery and it goes back to stock, it means you haven't fully unloxked your bootloader.
Make sure you run the last following command when you unlock your bootloader
Code:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c oem unlock-go
Then follow my guide here.
Also bootloader unlock tutorial here:
https://zukfans.eu/community/threads/zuk-z2--unlock.62/
Its for Zuk Z2, but the instructions are also for Z2 Pro.

Any idea about what's happening with the situation in my post by chance? When I try to flash from CMD i get this text. "Z2 is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"
"Z2" is the name of the folder that contains the recovery image, so it seems like it's not finding it.
which files about phone mobile data at a TWRP BACKUP ? i see a lot of files inside of a twrp backup . i need to learn that . thanks.

Hello guys, in this guide I will tell you how to unlock the bootloader of the Moto E6 Plus.
READ THE FULL GUIDE TO AVOID ERRORS IN THE PROCESS SINCE THIS UNLOCKING METHOD IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MOTOROLA PHONE.

* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
* Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this system image before flashing it!
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device,
* I will laugh at you.

What we will do first is a downgrade to version 76 of firmware since the new versions it's not allowed unlock bootloader, for this we will use SP Flash Tool v5.1916 (since the most current version does not give an error) and later we will flash some files for complete the unlock bootloader besides that we will install TWRP to install some GSI since the stock system it cannot be used.
This process is for 32/2 and 64/4 variant.
Links of download at the end of the post.
WARNING: THIS PROCESS ERASES ALL USER DATA AND VOIDS THE WARRANTY IN ADDITION THAT THE SYSTEM STOCK CANNOT BE USED.
Spoiler: PROCESS OF THE UNLOCK WITH WINDOWS
Prerequisites:
A computer with Windows (bruh)
ADB and Fastboot installed
Have installed the device drivers to be detected in fastboot mode.
Have downloaded the lk, vbmeta and recovery files.
Have downloader SP Flashtool and the ROM to downgrade.
READ THE FULL GUIDE TO AVOID ERRORS IN THE PROCESS SINCE THIS UNLOCKING METHOD IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MOTOROLA PHONE.
Once the necessary files have been downloaded the process is the following"
Unpack the SP Flash Tool and open "flash_tool.exe" file.
Once opened the app they will have to press up to the right the section "Options" and select "Option", when i open them they have to uncheck the second option.
Then close the window and in the "Download-Agent" press in "Choose" and search inside the unzipped zip folder a file named "DA_SWSEC_1848_PTA29.76.bin" or similary and select it. Then in "Scatter-loading File" press in "Choose" and just like before navigate to the same rute and select the file "MT6765_Android_scatter" and click on "Ok", and in "Authentication File" some select "Choose" and select "auth_sv5.auth" file and click in "Ok".
Now remove the battery of the phone and in Flash Tool press on "Donwload" and connect the phone without battery and start to flash.
Once the flashing finishes place the battery again and boot it in FASTBOOT (not system), then in terminal put the next command to unlock the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
And press Volume + in the phone to unlock the bootlaoder and DO NOT reboot still
Spoiler: If you logged into the system directly
In case of having started in the system without installing the files, you will have to start in the recovery mode and do a factory format.
After that you can flash the files from fastboot.
Now flash the lk, vbmeta and twrp files with the next commands:
Code:
fastboot flash lk lk.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Now restart in recovery and go to Wipe > System > Advanced options > Resize.
Without this it would appear that there is 8GB of memory instead of 32/64.Now it only remains to flash the GSI.
Spoiler: PROCESS OF THE UNLOCK WITH LINUX
Prerequisites:
A computer with Linux (bruh)
ADB and Fastboot installed
Have downloaded the lk, vbmeta and recovery files.
Have downloader SP Flashtool and the ROM to downgrade.
READ THE FULL GUIDE TO AVOID ERRORS IN THE PROCESS SINCE THIS UNLOCKING METHOD IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MOTOROLA PHONE.
Once the necessary files have been downloaded the process is the following
Unpack the SP Flash Tool, and mark as to executable "flash_tool" file and open as superuser, if you don't know the commands are the following:
Code:
sudo chmod +x flash_tool
sudo ./flash_tool
Now in the "Download-Agent" press in "Choose" and search inside the unzipped zip folder a file named "DA_SWSEC_1848_PTA29.76.bin" or similary and select it. Then in "Scatter-loading File" press in "Choose" and just like before navigate to the same rute and select the file "MT6765_Android_scatter" and click on "Ok", and in "Authentication File" some select "Choose" and select "auth_sv5.auth" file and click in "Ok".
Now remove the battery of the phone and in Flash Tool press on "Donwload" and connect the phone without battery and start to flash.
Once the flashing finishes place the battery again and boot it in FASTBOOT (not system), then in terminal put the next command to unlock the bootloader:

sudo fastboot flashing unlock_critical

Now flash the lk, vbmeta and twrp files with the next commands:
Code:
sudo fastboot flash lk lk.img
sudo fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Now restart in recovery and go to Wipe > System > Advanced options > Resize.
Without this it would appear that there is 8GB of memory instead of 32/64.Now it only remains to flash the GSI.
If you don't know which GSI to try first, I recommend one from Phhusson, Ermitain or Andy.
NOTE: The system will be encrypted, and in this build of TWRP the encryption is not support so the files of internal storage will appear with numbers and letters random, if you want to remove the encryption flash the dm-verity.
NOTE 2: After unlocking the bootloader you can update the firmware to the latest version, but you will have to flash the lk and vbmeta files again (besides of recovery).
NOTE 3: The GSI architectures for each variant are: A64 AB for 32/2 and ARM64 AB for 64/4.
NOTE 4: If you are going to flash a GSI with GApps you will first have to flash a vanilla Phhusson GSI and start in it, after that you have to flash the GSI with GApps WITHOUT wipes and you can use it normally

Ahí te dice en la imagen, las GSIs compatibles son las que son A64 xd // There it tells you in the image, the compatible GSIs are those that are A64 xd
Dont get it, there is way too many fake websites with USB drivers for ADB and fastboot and none of them are working, ive tried your adb driver aswell but once I get into fastboot windows just says: Android device with a 28 error code which means that there is no driver installed, could you give me the link?
EDIT: adb only works when the device has booted.

mmmm, look first trying with lmsa to have as it tells you to do the firmware re-installation, then do the same steps you did in the LMSA but in the flashtool
If you want to downgrade you have to do it with the firmware of the e6s because if you do it with the e6 plus your phone will have birck.
