I’m using Moto g4 xt1624 , can I download de zip file to update or this is for only Moto g4 plus model
I install this Rom. this is perfect no lag works fully official
If you update with this, there is a good chance you will not get future official updates ota. You will be sidloading forever. It happened to previous g users. Not worth it.
This is non-final software, violates your warranty and takes you off the upgrade path. We strongly recommend you wait for the final OTA software.

If you use the latest OTA, then it remains in warranty and also receives the future OTA…don’t sure about the soak test version.

Will I get a future update after this???
Hi sumit
I have rooted my devices can I still upgrade through ur steps provided

No first you have to unroot your device then it works. To unroot flash stock firmware again.
will we recieve future updates too via OTA if we update manually
Will I get future updates
Will I get the update . I already updated Moto g4 plus
Will I get ota update .as I have installed October security patch file .
Yes you will get the OTA Update
i just upgraded to naugat.
is there any problems thereafter when official update comes
I have an xt1626 and it didn’t work.
In recovery mode the error appears:
E: footer is wrong
E: signature failed
This doesn’t work in xt1626?
Will I be able to switch the OS-language to German
A bit confused it’s stamped US.EN yet in your post you have listed XT1642 which is the AU/EU variant. Will it actually work and the latest OTA file link states it’s not for the models you’ve listed.
Will this update work on Moto g turbo editiin…???
No it won’t. Works only on Moto G4/Plus
What the heck happened to the SIM Card settings section in ‘Settings’? Where did it move to or get hidden with this Android 7 Naugat update? Can’t find it to save my life.
I rooted my moto g4+ in 6.0.1 Marshmellow
now can i upgrade to Nougat 7.0?
Without any problem?
Only way to upgrade a rooted device is to Flash a stock Marshmallow firmware and them try the update.
I tried updating N 7.1.1 in Moto g4 play, by following the process mentioned above, but it fails with the error “e:signature verification failed e: footer is wrong”.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dhananjay
