AT&T XT1058 - Stuck on 4.2.2

Hello,
I just bought a used Moto X (2013). There is no carrier branding on the back and it's written Xt1058 but the ROM installed is of AT&T.
Whenever I try and update click the CHECK FOR UPDATE, it says, " NO UPDATE FOUND " your device is up to date.
The phone is NOT ROOTED as there are no superuser type apps on the phone. Not sure about the bootloader though. Phone runs perfectly fine just this update thing is getting me worried.
Its currently on 4.2.2
Can anybody please tell me why I cant get the OTA or what should I do to update it to KITKAT?
Thank you in advance.

I tried the adb fastboot thing, but it says waiting for device and never shows anything. Does that have anything to do with the phone or the Operating System im using (WINDOWS 8.1)

Please see -> No OTAs on AT&T XT1058
Please do what is listed in Post #5 and post the results. also include what it says for (bootloader) iswarrantyvoid: and who is the carrier you are using it on?

And like the member in that other thread... you have...
(bootloader) unlocked: Not supported
(bootloader) iswarrantyvoid: Not supported
(bootloader) cid: 0xdead
were the IMEI and SKU really reported as 0's, or did you do that in your post here to keep them hidden?
Btw, if you follow that other thread, I gave a lot of warnings of the phone being in an unknown state, I wasn't sure if it was safe or not to try and flash, do so at your own risk, etc... in the end, the user flashed the Rogers Canada XT1058 rom -> http://www.filefactory.com/file/5z0...4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_59_cid14_CFC_1FF.xml.zip using mFastboot, and did a factory reset. It didn't cure the values I'm pointing out which are not standard.. but it did get him to 4.4.4 and was working on his GSM carrier..
If you're up for it, and are willing to take the risk, maybe that will work for you too... and hopefully it doesn't brick your phone.

I didnt hide anything, just posted as it came on the CMD.
So if I flash to that rogers rom, will I be getting future updates or will I have to flash everytime?
Also, my apologies, but can you point me towards a step by step guide for using mfastboot, as im new to this and running windows 8.1.

Ok, well, seeing those things things, let me reiterate that your phone is in an "unknown" or at least "unusual" state. Anything you do at this point is risky! So its up to you if you really want to do anything (like flashing) or leave it like it is (since its working).
There is a chance you will not get updates if you are using the XT1058 rom branded for another carrier. (i.e. if you have the ATT XT1058 rom on an XT1058 being used on a different carrier).
As for step by step... you have a few options..
http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-ReturnToStock.html See the requirements at the top of the page, and then option 5
Or...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515
Oh, and I only suggested the Rogers Canada XT1058 rom because it worked for that other user in that other thread, and I THINK it might have less bloat than the ATT XT1058 rom.
And I do suggest you read that entire thread... there are a few good posts in there with info that might help you understand the situation... because this is a weird state.

Thank you very much for the reply.. I followed your instructions and I am now on 4.4.4. The same happened exactly, home button not working, active display not working, quick settings could not be reached.. FACTORY RESETED it and its working fine now.

[Q] Unusual Boot loader variables in Moto X

I recently bought a used Moto X AT&T Version from a retailer (it's AT&T, back printed with its logo). It's functioning normally. GSM Network is recognized. I was also able to take an OTA upgrade to 4.4.4 (it was previously 4.4.2). Everything is working up to the mark.
Well, I rebooted my phone in Fastboot Mode (just for curiosity) and was completely shocked when I read Device is Unlocked: Status Code 1 printed on the screen. But, I know this variant can't be unlocked and secondly, I have never read about Status Code: 1. My Developer Edition prints Status Code: 3 which is obviously unlocked. Amazed of what I read, I got worried! So I issued fastboot getvar all command to the phone.
The result variables got me more worried! I have added them below for reference:

1. Why the IMEI is being reported as 00000000000..... If I go to System>About>Status, IMEI is being correctly reported. Dialing *#06# also displays the IMEI correctly.
2. Why CID is 0xdead? From my knowledge CID is always a hex value. And what this CID 0xdead implies?
3. Bootloader reports unlocking is not supported. My friend also has a Moto X AT&T. His reports 'no' and also correctly shows IMEI and CID. Why this?
4. Does this means my Moto X is unlocked and I can flash any custom recovery on it? As Device reports it's unlocked.
5. Stock Recovery doesn't seem to work as it always says 'No Command'. Is it safe to flash the stock recovery?
From all this, I have only come to the conclusion that the device was tampered. But how such happened?
Thanks to everyone, who replies!

That is the factory state.
In bootloader mode do you see AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) or (NS)?

Maybe it was a factory device and someone cloned an IMEI onto it - that might be what happened here.

I think it does. Try flashing TWRP and you will see.

It is always safe to flash stock, signed files as long as you have the right version for your device.

Thanks JulesJam for the reply!
AP Fastboot Flash Mode is NS (please see picture in the attachment)
I'll try flashing TWRP tonight. Hope everything goes well! If bootloader locked I won't be even able to pass the flashing step, right? (as pre flash signature validation will fail)
Flashed TWRP 2.8.6.0 successfully! Everything is working like a charm.
Flashed Carbon ROM 5.1.1. Working flawlessly!

Where do all those factory devices suddenly come from?

Exactly my question!

I think such phones are actually being secretly stolen from the factory or being leeched out secretly. How could it be possible that Motorola sells a bootloader factory unlocked smartphone?

FYI, there are several old threads covering phones in this state.
The oldest example:

Flash away dude!!! Just keep in mind that your device is very unsecure in that if you lose it, anyone with any knowledge about these things will be able to do anything they want with that device just like you are able to. They will be able to circumvent any security on the device b/c the fastboot is not secure.

They definitely weren't supposed to be sold to retail customers.
These devices didn't have IMEIs and so someone had to put an IMEI on the device, which is shady depending on how the IMEI was obtained.

Lost Imei and Wifi signal, Help with remote failure in adb (Soft Brick maybe?)

First sorry for my english, i'm from Brazil and my english level is medium
So by the way here is my sad history
I used the Resurection Remix 7 (pie) but yesterday i tryed to go back for the stock rom, first it worked perfectly, but the IMEI is lost and i can't activate wifi, mobile data or receive/make calls or messages
I can't boot twrp in XT1929-5 because i receive the "your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" message
in fastboot i receive "flashing_locked" message but in the system i can't activate the oem unlock again because the option still unclickable (but the important detail is, i also have bootloader unlocked, this erros is some type of bug or something like this)
when i try to flash another stock rom also every command send the message:
"(bootloader) Permission denied
FAILED (remote failure)"
Now my system is working but how i sayed before, without imei and connections (not even wifi)
I can't found any blankflash to try to recover it and lenovo moto assist doesn't recognize my device at all
All the way, this is my getvar all information:

Today i try to flash custom roms with adb sideload (stock recovery) to try to fix my problem
and my result is a giant failure, i got these messages bellow:
with stock roms i've got
"error 21 installation aborted
signature verification failed"
and with custom roms i've got
"error failed to verify whole-file signature
installation aborted
signature verification failed"
Someone please help me, i'm out of ideas and really don't know what to do

Have you tried flashing the stock Pie ROM?
In my case, I tried to flash Oreo after having Pie (it was this firmware: BECKHAM_OPW28.70-22_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml) to recover an Oreo backup I had made with TWRP, but for some reason I couldn't enter the recovery because it gave me bootloop. Try out this firmware: Firmware oficial 9.0.0 Pie

This just happened to me on a never-unlocked bootloader using the OFFICIAL Lenovo Smart Assistant app to update to the software that the app located and flashed. All seemed well until I noticed wifi wouldn't turn on; mobile didn't work; IMEI is blank--not "0", blank as is baseband. Ran getvar and IMEI shows so the files must still be on it. My phone is just over 2 months old so still warranted.

Me too.... I just sent the device to moto USA for repair...

Yes same here. I was using the official lenovo app to upgrade and now my phone is junk. What do I do? Do you have the motorola phone number handy?
I have a moto z3 play no unlocked nonsense or unlicensed ROMs. Just a phone. Now it won't connect to wifi, Lenovo smart assistant doesn't recognize it, and I'm screwed. It said it had an update (not pie) just a regular beckham update. I downloaded it and went through the procedure as normal. Now nothing.

If your phone is still in warranty, go online and request repair, and you will get a replacement phone. I sent back my defective phone and I just got replacement this afternoon.

To clarify the phone does turn on and everything but it doesn't have an IMEI and the wifi won't work. None of the recovery options work with motorola smart assistant. I did a factory reset and it is the same. Nothing. I ordered a g7 power a minute ago. I want to forget about this z3 phone but if I can get it to work someday maybe one of my kids can use it.
This is motorola/lenovo in a nutshell. It's like getting a tool from harbor freight. It will work. . .for a while. but it is cheap enough so you don't care, really.
J

I guess there was something wrong with the firmware. It looks like they withdrew the firmware from the tool because i don't see it any more...
You can get the replacement phone if you have warranty. Otherwise, you may just unlock the bootloader and install PIE.

Thank you so much for this! I just printed out the labels and Fedex stuff and I'll ship it out in the morning. I was a good phone I hope I get one back that is useful. Maybe one that even has Pie. One can wish.

I posted my experience here. I don't expect the phone to even have the Feb update--the one that messed things up? I just hope I get a phone in perfect condition because I sent them one in that shape. I'll follow up when it comes.
Good luck with your repair.
I got the replacement phone today and it does appear to be perfect. It's on Jan. update as I suspected. Maybe when PIE rolls out to my phone, I'll update--if I still have it by then.

OPWS28.70-31-12 which should have been March? I believe that's the one that wiped my radio. My notes (which could be wrong) say OPWS28.70-60-3 was Feb update. OPWS28.70-31-12 is still showing on my Smart Assistant app. I didn't attempt to do anything with it. I'll sit on OPWS28.70-31-8 until Pie--and then wait a few weeks to be sure.

Hmmm, Ok, I did use the smart assistant to flash OPWS28.70-31-12 and lost baseband.
After I received the replacement phone, I reecived an OTA notification, and i was able to upgrade to the same OPWS28.70-31-12 via OTA without errors.
However, the new patch still says February 1, 2019...

I think I remember that it may have said Feb again. I've never received an ota update on my phone. Glad it's working for you .

I had the same issue after using Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant to update to OPWS28.70-31-12 tonight. After a lot of digging and frustration (I'm a relative noob), I found the following app, which allowed me to tether my computer's internet to my phone via USB.
https://github.com/Genymobile/gnirehtet
I downloaded the Windows Rust version, unzipped it and ran it. It failed, but I noted it required adb.exe, so I added the containing folder to my PATH (set path=%path%;C:\[folder-containing-adb.exe]). It ran without a hitch after that.
Since the phone now had access to the internet, the previously greyed out "Allow OEM Unlocking" in Developer Tools was available. I enabled it, successfully unlocked my bootloader, and am now working on reflashing a working ROM... will update with success, failure, or SOS.
I'm happy to go into further detail, should anyone need it, but thought I'd let people know it's not hopeless, and the app above was the key.
(Of course, if you'd rather take advantage of your warranty rather than voiding it, I completely understand. )
EDIT: The manual re-flash of the available stock ROMs failed to restore the Baseband, so the radios remain inactive and LMSA still won't recognize the phone for Rescue. Thoughts?

Thanks. I was able to connect to internet via ethernet. I had successful adb already. None of that meant much without a zip to sideload. As you said, if you'd rather not void your warranty.
I'm glad more people are responding to this issue. A lot of users may have avoided this issue by not even being aware of the tool. Tool users with botched flashes probably did as you or I did--voided warranty/returned for replacement. My phone was too new to risk voiding warranty.
Did you return to stock? If so, what was your rom source?

I certainly tried. This was my source: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/beckham/official/RETUS/
Their source seems to be zips of the files LMSA downloads, but they don't seem to be in a proper format to sideload. Nonetheless, I tried flashing the previous ROM I'd been on (28.70-31-8), the original Oreo ROM (28.70-31), and ResurrectionRemix. None of them restored the Baseband.

Hey guys, long time lurker, but first time poster. I also had the issue when I unlocked the bootloader on my XT1929-4 Unlocked Z3 Play and flashed the sprint variant rom. The Beckham-RETUS software does not have the sprint wi-fi calling option. After flashing the sprint variant rom, it also did not allow me to use the wi-fi calling app. So since I didn't want their bloatware on my phone, I wiped the device and re-flashed the Beckham_RETUS OPWS28.70-31-8 file. After flashing, the baseband was not found. So far the only baseband/modem file that has worked for me is M636_19.34.01.81R found in the sprint variant rom (XT1929-3_BECKHAM_SPRINT_8.1.0_OCWS28.70-61-4) also now with the official Beckham RETUS rom (BECKHAM_OPW28.70_60_3) Since I had already unlocked my bootloader my warranty was void, but my phone is working well on BECKHAM_OPW28.70_60_3 with FEB 2019 security update . Hope to see the official RETUS channel PIE update soon. Hope this helps

I had two source files on PC from two updates. Yes, zip files but not packaged for sideloading
When I extracted the payload.bin from the second (bad one--28.70-31-12), it definitely shows a modem but no "radio" image. The more I look into how MOTO does things, the more I'm looking forward to selling the phone. It's a good phone in many ways, but I'll stick with the Pixel 3a. At least I can work within Google's parameters.

How did you flash? a package? fb flash individual images? I'm just trying to understand how to work with these files as the files in the LMSA app downloads are at least 60% different from these downloads.
According to this site, stock roms can be flashed on LOCKED bootloader through fastboot. If I knew that, I'd forgotten it, but I don't think I knew that was possible. Has anyone done this. OTOH, I've read MANY tech articles on the web that had incorrect info. I just don't know enough about MOTO to know.

G7 Plus XT-1965-3 help please.

Guys,
I have the G7 plus XT19645-3 UK device, never been rooted or messed around with.
I had some issues with bluetooth not working with one particular car, so my neighbour 'upgraded' it to Android 10.
I was not happy with Android 10, so he then tried to revert t back to Android 9, which failed.
Currently, the phone boots, shows the Motorola logo, then the message 'Your device is corrupt, it cannot be trusted and may not work properly', then, it displays 'Verity mode is set to eio'.
I then have to restart it by holding the power button, I can get into fastboot using the volume down and power button, and it is recognised by fastboot devices.
Before I make the situation worse, can anyone show me how to get it back to ANY version of Android so I can use the phone please.
I have tried reading through the various posts on here, but quite frankly I am confused as which to follow.
Any help most gratefully received.

I see 2 options:
First option is to try download and use the Rescue and smart assistant (formerly the lenovo moto smart assistant) to recover the device. It easy to use with an user friendly interface
Second option is since you can boot into fastboot, than you just need to download a rom for the device and flash it. You can download the stock rom from lolinet (Here's the android 9 for reteu devices: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip) and then flash it manually via cmd or use the blankflash script thats laying somewhere here in the xda treads for the phone

Hi Teo S, thank you for coming back to my request, I have tried smart assistant, it failed with an error something like 'key information could not be read from your device'.
I then tried using the flashfile.bat script, using the rome you linked to above, and the Android 10 rom from Olinet.
The Android 9 failed, with two errors related to' system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.0' and 'system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.1'.
The Android 10 rom flashed successfully as far as I can tell looking at the messages in the cmd window all commands finish with 'OKAY'.
However, when I reboot the device, I still get the Motorola logo, which flashes on and off a few times, then get the same message 'Your device is corrupt, it cannot be trusted and may not work properly', then, it displays 'Verity mode is set to eio'.
So although it looked like it had flashed correctly, something is still not right, can you suggest anything else?

A further bit of info, I left the phone for about 10 minutes with the message 'Verity mode is set to eio' and the Motorola logo, when I came back to it, that screen had gone, and was replaced with a black screen with yellow and red text, essentially it said 'Boot Failed', followed by red text about how to contact customer service and if it is a Verizon device (which is is not), but below that was more yellow text which said 'No Bootable A/B slot', 'failed to boot Linux, falling back to fastboot'

So it sounds like you unlocked the bootloader before doing all of this? Please confirm. Not sure if you could still request unlock code if you don't have it yet.
Also, did you reset the device?
Could you dump all fastboot variables, and post them here ( fastboot getvar all ).
Notice that XDA upgrade scripts for flashing are often missing a step or two, due to them being for older versions. Extract "flashfile.xml" from you current ROM, and check line by line that everything is flashed and erased properly. It must be line for line exact!
I think your phone is totally recoverable, just need to follow the correct steps.

To be honest, my neighbour 'updgraded' my device from Android 9 to 10 so I am not sure if he unlocked the bootloader or not.
I have the unlock code though from Motorola in case it is required.
Here is the output from getvar all, i've replaced the device serial and IMEI with '*'.

OK, things seem fairly clear now. It's still locked (iswarrantyvoid: no).
You may want to try first to switch the bootloader slot to a (fastboot --set-active=a). And reboot to fastboot, do getvar all again. Compare which version it is in slot A now, is it still 9 or 10 already. Your version B has some older 10, compared to Lolinet. Also, try Moto recovery software from both slots, just in case. Sounds like you already tried from B, now switch to A and try again. Your locked phone should be detected somehow. That software is exactly for issues like yours!
If neither A/B work, I am not sure if you can flash the full 9 or 10 to the locked device.
Your fastboot says GB channel, XT1965-3, so either of these 2 ROMs could work for you, 9 or 10:
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai
mirrors.lolinet.com
Either zip will have flashfile.xml, so you can try 9 first, then 10. For each version follow its respective flashfile.xml for the exact files. It won't let you flash things that cannot be downgraded, so don't worry about trying it.
Anyway, if you are unable to flash with the locked BL, unlock it, flash 9 or 10, then boot to verity, and relock it if you care.
Update: read up here
https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQuestions/comments/in2zga
I say use the official procedures first, do not unlock yet.
In another place, if you google for 'Verity mode is set to eio', it says this:
I didn’t succeed. I returned the customer without repair. I believe it is a memory or processor failure.
Update2: It seems you actually cannot go back to 9, and must stick to 10 to avoid the EIO issue. It checks for roll back, and 9 after 10 is a rollback, which means - it thinks it's been tampered with. So do reload 10 back:

bibikalka, thank you for the reply, lots of info for me to digest there.​I have just tried to switch to slot a, for some reason that didn't work, this is what I got.
D:\fastboot --set-active=a
Setting current slot to 'a'...
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.003s
So I guess I have fallen at the first hurdle..

Ok, I have made some progress, I downloaded the RetailGB rom for Android 10 that you linked to, then unzipped it and looked at the flashfile.xml.
I then compared the contents to the flashfile.bat I had downloaded.
They were almost exactly the same except the flashfile.bat was missing this line from flashfile.xml
<step MD5="b3a54937c84fb5f3e7f71fc019c11c78" filename="system.img_sparsechunk.5" operation="flash" partition="system"/>
So I modified the flashfile.bat to include the line
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
And tried again, and it worked perfectly, after rebooting, the phone booted up normally with the Motorola logo and then went through the setting up menus.
I popped my sim back in and it registered on the network
Before I go ahead and re-install all my apps / data, is there any point in rooting it, and if so how do I do that, i'd like to get it in a state where should anything happen again, I can be in a better position to recover it.
Thank you for the help and assistance in getting me back up and running.

OK, so it looks like you were missing a chunk of the /system - no wonder it did not work before ...
Unlock can be useful, or may be a nuisance. Decide for yourself. Is it out of warranty now? If so, you won't lose anything by unlocking. Before unlocking, you'd install all the OS updates that are being offered. It will be more difficult to do it later. With unlock/root you get :
TWRP
Magisk
Titanium Backup
Other ROMs if you fancy those
But some apps seem to refuse to run if they detect a rooted device
Tethering (if you want to bypass the carrier restrictions)
Other little things
If you don't care about any of this, stay locked.

@bibikalka, I think I would like to root the device, mainly so I can use Titanium to back it all up.​That said, having read this thread ​

The phone is out of warranty anyway, I have the bootloader unlock code from Motorola, so I guess I have everything required, just need a hand hold to actually do the unlock.

Question Do NOT Convert from CN ROM to Global ROM (CN ROM Officially Supports Google Play Services)

For those who are planning to buy from Motorola China (CN ROM), do NOT convert to Global ROM! Do NOT buy from an online retailer where the phone has been converted to global ROM.
This is a warning to everyone if you don't want any headache in software support.
Reasons why you should NOT convert to Global ROM:
1. You can NEVER re-lock your bootloader - your phone will get BRICKED if you try to re-lock your bootloader.
2. You can NEVER update your software over-the-air. Do you want to own a phone with an update-less software? Yes, this is NOT possible as there will be an error message everytime you try to update your phone's software.
3. There will be a WARNING MESSAGE ("Your bootloader is unlocked.. etc") every time you restart your phone. Do you want this nasty message to ruin your phone's software?
4. Google Pay will detect your phone as tampered won't meet security requirements.
5. Streaming platforms and banking apps may not work once your phone is rooted.
Why do you NEED to update to Global ROM when in fact, CN ROM OFFICIALLY SUPPORTS Google Play Services.
1. Just go to Settings > System > Google Play Services
2. Toggle to ON and you can now install Play Store and use it to download your favorite Google Apps.
NO issues whatsoever. As simple as that.

My device is converted and bl is locked. That's how it came to me, i have no idea It's not even unlocked right now )
Updates are coming and installing, no problem.
BL locked & no warning message.
Even if this was not the case, i would like to convert the device again, because there is no language in CN rom, as far as i know, only CN and EN languages.

Your question is a little pointless. Not everyone has to know Chinese or English. For this reason, it may need this procedure, for example I

I dont know if it can really brick your phone when you convert in a clean way and your device is recognized as the original.
But I put the warning there as a lot of people have bricked their devices before by not paying proper attention.
In theory it SHOULD be possible to relock, once you are on the original firmware but I strongly advise against it.
No idea how @cascade128 received a locked converted device though, seems to be possible.
I dont know why you are so radical against unlocking, of course it brings drawbacks but that was always the case since Samsung implemented efuses.
Also: Android Auto and Hey Google do not work on CN and there is a very limited language selection.
@cascade128: could you boot into fastboot / bootloader, create a "fastboot getvar all" dump and send it to me via PM?
I'd really like to take a look at this. Also: Does the Lenovo Rescue assistant recognize your device as xt2241-2?

Well the fact to have a converted device with a locked bootloader it is good for modding!
I guess @cascade128 bought from a vendor that has maybe contacts in Motorola (or is someone from Motorola itself) that has access to stuff that we don't.
It is interesting though...cause I'm holding on on unlocking the bootloader (and then rooting) for warranty purposes and I don't how long I can wait
Cause now my "Unlock OEM" option isn't greyed out anymore

I bought the device second hand and it was like this. I also get this error when i try to unlock BL.
Error:
(bootloader) Failed to get unlock data.

Mobile phones imported in our country(Turkey) must be registered with a passport, paying tax (government tax $150). Conditions: Having entered/exited a country with this passport in the last 1 year and the sim card(s) to be used in the device belong to the passport holder. This device has to be used by this passport holder for 3 years. For this reason, the imei numbers of this device have also been changed. 2 imei numbers belong to an old Motorola brand device. Main question; how did he enable bootloader lock after doing these? I think what he's using is the software box. Otherwise, this operation is not possible! The guy who made it gave this information, paid $60.

Exactly. Did the person really received a converted and "locked" device?
Moto modders know too well this WILL brick your phone. It's a given fact already

Your version is "reteu" which is NOT "retcn" (CN ROM) so your phone is Edge 30 Ultra from the beginning

Nope. Its possible to switch carrier info via fastboot command.
@cascade128: What happens when you try to get an unlock code from the official site with the ORIGINAL imei?

So now you have to tell us where you bought the phone in order for us to unlock and then relock the bootloader! hahahah
I don't know how much I can resist without unlocking, but I have to say that now without root you can do plenty of things comparing with the past.

You can't tell him, because that kid doesn't really know, but he has a lot of ideas/claims. He doesn't know anything. I guess that's enough for the last photo i sent to be silent
The original imei numbers of the device need to be rewritten. The person who will do it is in Istanbul, but i am not in Istanbul. I am in a far place. I will go at the first opportunity and write the original imei numbers and unlock the device there. Of course that will cost me another $60.
@SedyBenoitPeace I bought it second hand from one of the users, it was used for 1 week. He had these processes done by a software repairman in Istanbul, for 60$. No need to be surprised, our place is full of inventors

Well thank you for the insight...for sure this Istanbul's guy is someone from Motorola or at least has some Motorola tools

There are service boxes we call "Box", this friend is Turkish. It's not from Motorola, it's a software developer. I don't know exactly, but he's famous in his business. As i said, there are many such people here. There are some Syrians, even Iranians. They can solve insurmountable problems with the service equipment (different manufacturers) we call this "box", these works are quite famous in our country.
For example very famous this Box: https://sigmakey.com/
That these devices can "force flash" the event. In other words, they can flash firmware without the need for any unlock code or processing.
For example very famous again(update list / writing edge 30 ultra:

For those who are planning to buy from Motorola China (CN ROM), do NOT convert to Global ROM! Do NOT buy from an online retailer where the phone has been converted to global ROM.
This is a warning to everyone if you don't want any headache in software support.
Reasons why you should NOT convert to Global ROM:
1. You can NEVER re-lock your bootloader - your phone will get BRICKED if you try to re-lock your bootloader.
2. You can NEVER update your software over-the-air. Do you want to own a phone with an update-less software? Yes, this is NOT possible as there will be an error message everytime you try to update your phone's software.
3. There will be a WARNING MESSAGE ("Your bootloader is unlocked.. etc") every time you restart your phone. Do you want this nasty message to ruin your phone's software?
Why do you NEED to update to Global ROM when in fact, CN ROM OFFICIALLY SUPPORTS Google Play Services.
Just go to Settings > System > Google Play Services
Toggle to ON and you can now install Play Store and use it to download your favorite Google Apps.
NO issues whatsoever. As simple as that.

Does this work with all Google services? Such as Google pay, assistant and so on? Debating buying the phone on aliexpress as there's a sale.

Either way, dont buy it until they fix the camera.
