Looking for Information on XT1805 retGB - Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers

Basically I've been having issues finding information on the non-indian models for the g5S plus, especially retgb xt1805. My questions are
Does it have Android 8/.1(stock)
What is the most recent build for retgb (stock)?
and how can I get this build
The last two are because I cannot find any solid information on the correct firmware for it.

1) latest build for retgb appears to be the June 2018 security patch 7.1.1 NPSS26.116-26-18. https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/8w0c0c/june_patch_now_available_on_retgb
2)I don't think Android Oreo has been released outside of India, since the soak test is running at the moment. Hopefully it should be released globally soon.
3) if you want the latest build, have a look at the Google drive link mentioned in this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77025728&postcount=507 that should be the June 2018 firmware leaked from the Motorola servers (reteu and retgb seems to share firmwares), but please flash responsibly and ensure you have a backup of your important data.

Need to downgrade back to 6.0.1

Found a used Nexus 6 (for now) but it has 7.1.1 on it.
I need to go back to 6.0.1
I've gone to google's website and I am confused which factory 6.0.1 image to download.
What are the differences between them? (I'm assuming those listed with a month/year date are describing security patch release dates, but not sure about all the others.)
ex of a few of them...
6.0.1 (MOB30D) Link df7014f9417a886bc9efc79d9a3548add5e0a18aea47f73ad3cd9e535e450db0
6.0.1 (MMB30G) Link d5d540ed1bd8f8a544740dd75f2e8e61a43a15c13a9fa2e4312e86e59830ea36
6.0.1 (MOB30I) Link 3692dac3560b0e03b5bab4c113ea9ebe1def8c4cbc54260b5cf5027829332a1e
6.0.1 (MMB30J) Link dc940f6b6baeadf295806456c46fb1ca4800f1bdb43b3f92c257271ef419b8e1
....
I continued to research and found this from AT&T's website.... (click on the previous builds link on that page)
https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tutorial.html#!/stepbystep/id/stepbystep_KM1138351?make=Motorola&model=Nexus6XT1103
Apparently it lists all the builds... and their sizes.
But this presents another question... due to the relatively small size of some of these builds... which are just security enhancements, would I have to keep adding each build on top of the next? Or does the latest security enhancement build have all prior security builds in it?

perfect... thanks! sooooo... AT&T shows the last 6.0.1 build as MMB31C (Nov. 2016) but your link shows the last build to be MOB31T (Feb. 2017).
Well. There isn't any version of 6.0.1 specifically for AT&T so just flash the latest.

G5S Plus Oreo and June security out yet?

So I saw some articles stating that Oreo is finally rolling out together with the June security patch. I haven't gotten 8.0 or 8.1 but I do have the June patch. Does anyone know when it could be rolling out for everyone?
I've not seen any mention of a general release of the G5S+ stock Oreo on Reddit or on here, usually if there's an update there's a mention (usually a lot of mentions) somewhere. The latest information seems to be the Oreo update is still in soak beta testing, and Motorola releases the update when they're happy with it. I've no idea when that release may be, if it has minor bugs or is ready, then it may be very soon. If they're finding major bugs, as had happened to other OEMs with their Oreo update, they may hold the update until the bugs are fixed. In summary, you'll have to wait for Motorola.

Official Firmware for XT1900-7 Retail

I've been digging around everywhere searching for official firmware for XT1900-7 retail version, but i had no success. After soft bricking and saving my device a couple of times with official firmwares provided in ROM's section i went back to LOS 15.1 (8.1) 5 November 2018 Security patch again. How and where can i find official firmware for XT1900-7 retail version coming from LOS 15.1 (8.1) 5 November 2018 Security patch?
Note: Its actually MicroG version of LOS 15.1.

Last one I got was April 1, 2019 on my XT1900-1
The latest update for the is the May 1 security update.
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/payton/official/
Using it on my Android 1 Edition and it's running very well. The March 1 update had a weird bug where the ZRAM would constantly crash slowing the phone to a crawl, no such issues on the latest update rooted with Magisk.

Hi! Is it possible to convert the reteu model (xt1900-7) to an Android 1 edition?
Thanks
I'm have the Android one edition and I just received the July security patch, if that's the updates your see referring too.
On Android One - Fi's channel (but, current sim is on T-Mobile USA) - got a system update 3 days ago and again another (2nd. one) update last night. Here are the screenshots - check & compare yours
PPW* included some system upgrade, where as the other one was a smaller Android security patch.

This could work. For a while I had run my XT1900-7 (RETEU) with XT1900-1 (RETAIL) ROMs. Everything worked except for Google Pay.
Hi, I just got July's update this morning (Moto X4 XT1900-7 RETEU)

Yes, it is possible, but OTA's will not work. Only fastboot flash full ROM every month will work (if full ROM will be available for download...)
I am getting mental with the Moto X4 xt1900-7 Reteu. What about the updates? I got this phone from Amazon Spain, but I am currentlyin Germany, the phone came with the basic 7.1.1 firmware, and got authomatically updated to 8.0.0, OPW27.2, Security Patch Level: 1 December 2017. I bought this because of the small size, and his compatibility with Lineageos, but I need the Android 9.0 Pie before installing Lineageos (this is stated in Lineagerom webpage). The update never come ...... System Update says "Your Device is Up To Date".... Frustating!!! Do you know if there is a version of Lineageos that I can install fromOreo 8.0? or can I download Android Pie for my Moto somewhere? Sorry, getting totally mental Can anybody help me please?

Solved!!! Maybe someone would be interessed about this, just posting my experience
Lineageos installation instructions say the following: Warning: Before following these instructions please ensure that the device is currently using Android 9 firmware.
My Moto X4 XT1900-7 Reteu didn´t get the Android 9 update (still no idea why), it took me 3 days looking for a way to install the update manually with no success. Then I decided to try install lineage-19.1-20221123-nightly-payton-signed.zip anyway and it worked
The process was totally smooth and extremely fast, everything seems to be working perfectly, but I would like you to know that I didn´t install any Gapps, so I can´t confirm if this could create any problem.
Thank you to XDA and all the contributors, this is a fantastic source of info
