Hi there!
It's been a couple of hours I pass trying to install a new Rom on my Oneplus X.
First thing I do was to return it Stock and install OOS at last update to have the last firmware.
I've unlock the bootloader, do the OEM unlock thing, I flash the recovery to TWRP 3.2.1.0 (it was a pain in the ass to do.... don't know exactly why)
As I had difficulties installing the TWRP, I install the OPXBLUpdateOOS3.1.zip which help me installing the recovery
I ran this command to be sure it is unlock
PS C:\adb> fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Device tampered: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
(bootloader) console_enabled: 0
(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.011s
And than, I try to install roms with TWRP... I select my Rom (I want to install Oreo from AOSPA, but I also try Lineage 14 and Cyanogen 13 which was the one I had before)
I always got this error :
Checking for Digest files
Skipping Digest check: no digest file found
And than, the recovery reboot...
What have I done wrong? What can I do now to install at least android N ?
What twrp are you using? Flash the latest official or the one by CheckYourScreen. It's under original android development forum. It looks more like an issue with twrp than from the zip files.
i am having the same problem with latest twrp
Try using the 3.2.3-0 TWRP recovery bcoz everything you mentioned which you did seems to be correct. So try the TWRP 3.2.3-0 and report back.
I have the same issue with the latest twrp: 3.2.3-0 on samsung galaxy a5 2016. Can't install an official ROM from sammobile.
I have the same message on Note 4 but it doesn't affect installation. I just ignore it.
I have the same fcking issue with missing digest fcking ****. I can't flash the Magisk more SuperSU. **** off!
I had problem in flashing ROM file in Samsung galaxy grand 2 .the error says "No digest file found "and "zip is corrupt" .pls help me to resolve the issue
I am facing the same problem. No digest file found!

Hi,
I have a Motorola XT925 that appears to be unrecoverable and I was wondering if anyone here has been able to solve. I have looked through this group and there seems to be similar issues but non resolved for my particular issue.
When the phone attempts to boot I get the "Encryption unsuccessful" message with a "Reset phone" button that does nothing. According to other posts I have read on this error, if I could unlock the bootloader (and wipe the device) all would be well, however, when I get the phone into fastboot mode and attempt the unlock (as detailed on the Motorola website), it states the phone does not qualify for bootloader unlocking.
I see there is an exploit that can unlock the bootloader if the phone has root installed, however this phone does not and will not boot...
Is there anything that can be done?
Do you have the unlock key?
If its an xt925 ,it should qualify for unlock.
Make sure you update your drivers, try using another port (2.0 preferably), and that you copy the string correctly.

Thanks for replying, you are indeed correct. I must have cut and paste the unlock key incorrectly. However, I still do not think thing the phone is functioning correctly as I am not able to do anything with the fastboot command. I can not erase/format partitions (userdata or cache), I can not flash either the recovery (to CWM) or boot partitions and can't even boot the phone directly to the recovery image.
Here are some outputs from the fastboot:

Not sure what the Variable not supported message is, however even when I unlocked the device, there was a message saying that it was unable to erase partition.
Any ideas?
Drivers, could be the reason. Try re-installing.
Also, use 'mfastboot' and see if the issue persist.

My One Plus X is stuck in Oneplus logo I haven't rooted my phone, now i can only enter in fastboot mode. unable to enter in recovery mode and system.

Was TWRP installed before ?
Explain what you did just before that !
But seeing what you have, I bet flashing the official recovery won't work.
Flashing stock recovery
1) Download stock Recovery OnePlus (there are one for MM version and one for previous version. Depends on question one I asked !)
2) Copy the recovery in the adb folder
3) Start a new prompt command from the folder adb
4) Put the smartphone in fastboot mode (power off the smartphone , and click volume up + power)
5) Put the command "fastboot device" for be sure computer can see the smartphone
6) Put the command fastboot "flash recovery name-recovery.img"
But you bet shot will be to run the Mega unbrick guide I guess...

It's softbricked. Happened to me awhile ago, i've resolved it with the unbrick tools.
*Your bootloader is locked and can't do oem unlock, can't boot to twrp/system→ So there's no way to flash anything.
You need to run the unbrick tools. Head to the mega unbrick guide for more details.
Mega Unbrick's Thread
Notes:
Link for the recovery tool in OP is dead, so use this one instead
Recovery Tool
And download "Qualcomm driver" from OP.

current OS unknown (probably 5.1.5)

Hi all,
since I obviously hard-bricked my OP6 recently, the only thing that the phone does is booting directly into the bootloader.
Current status:
Code:
PS C:\Android> fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false

(bootloader) boot_mode: NORMAL_MODE
(bootloader) kmemleak_detect: false
(bootloader) force_training: 0
(bootloader) mount_tempfs: 0
I'm not allowed to execute ANY commands, which are always denied by "FAILED: (remote xyz is not allowed)"
oem unlocking does not work.
Trying to boot from a boot.img via fastboot (fastboot boot yxz.img) sends the phone into a freezing boot logo screen
I'm out of ideas and beginning to get really desperate about this.
Any help?
EDIT: The MsmDownloadToolV4.0InternationalVersionOxygenOS5.1.5 fixed it, finally. After more than 5 failed attempts. (which made me lose hope).
I'm STILL curious about that remote error. What causes it and is there another way to fix it?
My moto z got stucked in the famous Qualcomm 9008 Emergency mode. How i bricked my moto z? Or maybe would be better say, how Motorola did brick my moto z?
Yes I'm blaming motorola for this, and i have some good motivations for this.
I'll tell you the complete story of my brick.
I was having some trouble on oreo due to a failed root, so just came back to 7.1.1 and i was trying to go to oreo again by installing ota after ota. Actually i was able to install something about 4 or 5 otas before the boom. After the last ota the phone just turned off and after a couple of hours I noticed that the phone was detected as Qualcomm 9008 in Windows device manager.
Here the story get very interesting.
In fact i firstly tried to flash many blankflash files without success, seems like my moto z wasn't happy with them.
After some searching I discovered those QFIL files wich should help me out with completely reflash my moto z.
There was only one problem, Motorola didn't release the complete QFIL rom (for economic motivations i think).
So my situation is this
I have the .elf file releated to the moto z but I can't generate the rawprogram0.xml and the patch0.xml files (both contains infos about partitions).
But why I can't generate those files?
Simply because thos files are extracted from the GPTmain0.bin files (or something like that) contained in the QFIL rom, that isn't released by motorola.
You see why I'm blaming motorola now?
1)No direct factory for oreo (or at least i didn't find it)
2)this seems like a common moto z family (moto z play too have got this) problem, I've seen other people around here with the same problem, some of them have fixed this mess but some other like me no.
3)No QFIL rom, i mean, come on guys...EVEN XIAOMI RELEASES them. I understand that if a company releases this kind of files then all the fixing center would have less crying people with broken/bricked devices but come on, it's a shame.
I'm trying to get my moto z back to live from 2 weeks now, I think it's time to stop and ask for help.
If I've said something wrong and motorola have released the QFIL rom then I'm asking sorry but i didn't find them (in this case please post a link to it below)
If someone know how to extract rawprogram0.xml and patch0.xml files from the normal 7.1.1 factory then write how here please.
EDIT(MOTO Z IS BACK):
i've restored my phone thanks to an oreo based blankflash (and thanks to @The Marionette)
here is the link and the short guide on how to do that: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76310273&postcount=183
BUT, right after the blank flash flash your phone will have the bootloader locked, and you will not be able to unlock it since there is no partition table inside it.
so how can you restore your moto z?
dowload the factory in the link and then in the terminal use this command
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
ok now you are ready for RSD lite, flash everything trough it.
Hope your moto z is back as mine
this files?

I've never noticed them. Actually I've never checked in the ota packages, so thanks maybe those files can help me even if normally there should be only one gpt main 0.bin, so i don't know how can i merge them and if it's possible
I had pretty much the same brick cause and I posted what I did to fix it on the top brick-related thread.
You should check your bootloader version and if it's below version 92.09 or something, you are fine.
And if blankflash won't flash things, it's either your cable, your PC or the fact that the bootloader in the blankflash you used has an older bootloader and you can't flash an older bootloader over the newer one.

Probably i have a newer bootloader then the blank flash one, i want to make a try with the QFIL method, but do you know what should i do to build a blank flash? I mean a blank flash with a newer bootloader (the oreo one)

The blankflash mentioned in my post has an Oreo bl as far as I can see.
You need the Oreo firmware( mentioned in my post) and the Oreo OTA ( link available in the Oreo thread ).

You are trying to flash an older bootloader over your current one.
Thanks, few questions:
1. How do I find out the bootloader version of the downloaded factory image? In getvar command on my phone, I see 91.09 as my version.
(bootloader) version-bootloader: moto-msm8996-91.09(*)
2. where can I find the latest bootloader version as I have searched a lot and this is the latest image I found for moto z - XT1650-03_GRIFFIN_RETUS_8.0.0_OPL27.76-51_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml

One page backwards, I put a link to my post, where I explained everything I did. The OTA or the whole update zip should have the newest bootloader.
Again, I mentioned everything I did there.
I did try all the 4 GPT files in the OTA - Blur_Version.27.211.6.griffin.retail.en.US but it failed at gpt_main2.bin installation. Looks like its not accepting the image:
(bootloader) Flashing primary GPT image...
(bootloader) Flashing backup GPT image...
FAILED <remote failure>
May be I have to wait for OPLS27.76.51-5 Stock Rom since the phone is still locked.

Mine did the same, now try flashing the gpt.bin from the whole Oreo firmware, not the OTA.
Hi all,
I am a newbie to custom ROM's world and this is my attempt to it. My device is Moto G5s Plus.
To start with I had an encrypted phone running Android 8. Encryption was mandatory to install some work related apps. Because of sluggish performance I thought to install custom ROM.
Here are the steps I followed:
1. Installed minimal ADB on my laptop running Win10. Connected phone and successfully unlocked bootloader.
2. Rebooted phone in recovery mode and installed 'PixelExperience_Plus_sanders-11.0-20210310-1753-OFFICIAL.zip'.
3. Rebooted the device and everything was working fine till now (restored from google backup and restarted several times to make sure things were working fine).
4. Now as I mentioned I need to encrypt phone for bussiness reasons. So I selected 'Settings->Encrypt Phone'. For very small time a green iconed screen appeared and then phone rebooted.
5. After reboot, a screen with google logo (G) with a small progress bar (kept moving left to right and vice-versa) appeared. I left it for more than 12 hours still hung at same screen.
6. Now I tried to wipe Dalvik/ART cache and cache. This is where problem started happening. I tried few other things (could not recollect exactly). I even tried to erase 'data' from fastboot using 'fastboot erase userdata'.
7. When nothing worked, I thought of installing Pixel Experience 11 plus again from TWRP. The process went smooth but towards the end it showed:
'Failed to mount '/data' (invalid argument)' error.
I am attaching snapshots and logs. Its been more than 3 days being stuck on this issue. Really appreciate any help.
Please let me know if any info is required.
Also since I dont have any data to worry about, so I am open to any suggestion (wipe/format). I have SD card and OTG with me.
Once the phone is up and running, I need to encrypt it back. So please suggest steps while keeping this requirement in mind.
Look for this issue on youtube and you'll find the steps to fix it.
It looks like you have a corrupt file system.
You can fix it using TWRP.
Good luck !
Hi,
I tried multiple steps to fix this issue but none helped.
As for now looks like I have made some progress. What I did was i flashed official firmware for Moto G5s plus as mentioned on below page:
Flash official firmware Moto G5s Plus [sanders]
So far, we have had the guides for you to unlock the bootloader in Moto G5s Plus or how to install TWRP on Moto G5s Plus and today, I am going to show you how to download and Install stock ROM in Moto G5s Plus. So if you probably have already...

Now i have Android 7 up and running. Now I opened TWRP again, and flashed 'PixelExperience_Plus_sanders-11.0-20210310-1753-OFFICIAL.zip'. Though this process works fine but after reboot it is again stuck at Google logo (G) screen.
Please help. I have spent 2-3 days working this out.

Hey man.
In order to flash PE 11, like the ROM topic says, you "MUST" be on latest modem baseband ...
You "ONLY" obtain that by flashing the latest OREO 8.1 ROM.
So, you should flash latest Oreo you have and update it till there are no more updates.
Read PE 11 topic again. There you can find out about what i'm saying here.
Hope this helps and again,
Good luck !
Thanks a lot Damage1972 for showing the way forward
Between how did you figured out if this is the issue here?
Based on your suggestion, I flashed stock Android v8.1 and updated it till there are no updates. Phone was rebooting fine. After this, I flashed PE 11 plus and again phone is stuck at Google logo (G) screen.

No problem,man.
About the issue, it's listed on the pre requests in order to flash PE 11 !
It's very clear written on the first page and comments on the topic.
Carefully read the ROM's topic before flashing...
About your phone still stuck on boot : did you go through the steps to correct your phone file system ? And (sorry to ask you this) how did you flash the ROM ?
Did you do a Clean Flash ?
Check your messages.
Also, try this , that's what worked for me :
How to fix unable to mount data internal storage 0mb in twrp permanently :
Note : This will wipe/format your Data partion and your data will be reset. INSTRUCTIONS : 1) Reboot your device into TWRP Recovery. 2) Go to Wipe menu. 3) Go to Advance Wipe. 4) Select Data and go to Repair or Change File System. 5) Click...
forum.xda-developers.com
So few updates:
1. Looks like my mount data internal storage 0 mb issue is resolved (flashed stock ROM and then custom ROM and did not see this error).
2. Regarding how I flashed stock ROM Android 8.1. I downloaded 'Motorola_Moto_G5S_Plus_XT1804_SANDERS_RETAIL_8.1.0_OPSS28.65-36-9_CID50_8.1.0.zip' image from:

After that I was able to turn ON phone with Android 8.1.0. Checked for updates and installed them (i guess there were 3 security updates). Once done, entered bootloader and installed TWRP and flashed PE 11 plus. After reboot, it is again stuck at google logo (G) screen.
One more suggestion i need: Since I have spent a lot of time debugging this and ultimately I have to encrypt my phone. So below queries:
A. Is there any known issue with PE 11 plus on my G5S plus? If so, any workaround?
B. Is it discouraged to encrypt G5S plus running PE 11?
C. I am using 'Settings->Encrypt Phone' to encrypt phone. Should I try any other way?
Thanks and Regards.

Correct. Encryption doesn't work yet on PE 11 (actually it doesn't work on most Sanders ROMs). If encryption + SELinux enforcing is important for you, stock ROM is the only option.
Thanks sBinnala for help. At this point I am convinced that I will not install custom ROM. So I want to have stock ROM (Android 8.1) preferably.
Thing is yesterday I installed Android 8.1 stock rom (exact steps mentioned above), worked fine. Flashed PE 11 plus and phone got stuck at google logo screen. Searched again and though it to be some modem related issue hence I did below steps as mentioned on https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-11-sanders-pixelexperience-normal-plus-aosp.4247243/ by Jorge:
<<
It is recommended that you are using the latest firmware for the Moto G (5S) Plus.
to update via twrp:
Modem only:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ne...5-36-14_v2.0-modem-only_20210307.zip/download
Modem, Fsg & dsp:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ne...S28.65-36-14_v2.0-modem_20210307.zip/download
>>
So I flashed Modem, Fsg & dsp: (second zip) and re-flashed PE 11 plus. Again that did not worked. Now again I tried to flash stock Android 8.1 ROM. It worked but now it is not detecting SIM., showing IMEI as 0 or not available.
I have found multiple pages on similar issue but none is working. Looks like this issue is because of persist file and epf partition which I dont have (infact i dont have any backup).
So can someone please help me in installing stock Android 8.1 which should work fine (sim should be detected). Any help will be deeply appreciated.
Edit: Tried installing Validus and following steps mentioned on https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ork-imei-0-after-flashing-custom-rom.3745474/ but issue not resolved.
If it matters, mine is 4 GB/64 GB, XT 1804 variant.
On some threads, i found inconsistency in architecture (like 32 bit and 64 bit). What is that? I know i have 32 bit TWRP running on a 64 bit Windows 10 machine. I am not sure about stock ROM architecture. Can someone tell me how to check stock ROM architecture?
On another notes: I have tried flashing below stock roms but none of them are working fine (device boots but unable to recognize SIM):
- Motorola_Moto_G5S_Plus_XT1804_SANDERS_RETAIL_8.1.0_OPSS28.65-36-9_CID50_8.1.0_Android8.1.zip

- Validus-sanders-8.1.Beta.1.3-OFFICIAL-20180128-0506.zip
Regards.
Further update:
Looks like I have created a backup using TWRP of original ROM (which was Android 8.1 but encrypted). Zipped it using Android app and then I transferred it to Windows laptop (later realized i should not have done it). Unzipped in android device and placed it in OTG. Restored using TWRP but it is not booting.
Can I do anything now? That is, should I preserve any file which I can later use with stock Android 8.1 ROM which can help me with getting sim signal/IMEI number back.

Encryption works flawlessly with Arrow 11 vanilla.
Thanks everyone for helping me here.
Current situation:
Yes, I have a backup of stock ROM created using TWRP just after unlocking bootloader. The problem with this backup could be:
a. My phone was earlier encrypted.
b. As I was trying a lot of things and given I have 8 GB memory card, I took the backup on memory card, zipped it on memory card (using android app on phone) and then transferred to my PC. Later i transferred it back to memory card, unzipped using other Android phone and restored using TWRP.
As a result I am unable to boot my phone, It stucks at 'Your device may be unlocked ....' screen.
I have stock ROM for Android7 and Android8. I can flash any of them using fastboot. Phone boots ok but the only problem is, it is not detecting my sim card any more. IMEI number is also gone/disabled.
My phone has unlocked bootloader but is still not-rooted (and I would like to keep it this way).
Given i have spent last few days in trying various things, i have changed my expectations to below:
I no longer want any custom ROM.
I just want my phone to boot fine and every functionality like sim detection, IMEI etc to work fine (though i am fine with any android version but would prefer Android 8).
So basically I want to start fresh and have any fully-functional Android on my moto G5S plus Sanders XT1804 4 GB/64GB, dual SIM, Indian variant.
Regards.

Arrow isn't enforcing - it's permissive, which in itself is a huge security risk. Like I said, we don't have a ROM which supports both SELinux enforcing and encryption at the same time.

Normally in such cases, restoring EFS backup will do the trick. Have you already tried that?
After days of investigation, debugging and trying out everything which any post said, I have resolved my issue now. I now have a fully functional Android 8.1 installed on my phone, I am able to make calls, IMEI number is back.
In interest of wider public let me post what worked for me:
Note:
My device is Moto G5S Plus XT1804, 4 GB/64 GB, Retin Channel, India based phone. It is unrooted but has unlocked bootloader.
I have tried a lot many things, flashed many ROMs from different channels but none of them worked.
Below is what worked for me.
Probable issue: During flashing gpt.bin I was getting below error:
<<
writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Validating 'gpt.default.xml'
(bootloader) Security version downgrade
(bootloader) Image primary_gpt failed validation
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
(bootloader) Cancelling 'gpt.default.xml'
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.074s
>>
I guess this is the core issue. I searched on it and got many forums. Finally below solution worked for me:
Downloaded stock Android 8.1 rom 'stockrom.net_XT1804_SANDERS_RETIN_8.1.0_OPS28.65-36-14_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip' for my device from: https://www.stockrom.net/2020/04/xt1804-retin-oreo-ops28-65-36-14.html
Unzipped this file and placed it at 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot'.
Created my own batch file using instructions mentioned in 'stockrom.net_XT1804_SANDERS_RETIN_8.1.0_OPS28.65-36-14_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml/flashfile.xml'.
Imp note: Do not use fastboot commands mentioned on any forum. Every rom (custom/stock) has a flashfile.xml or servicefile.xml. Open this file and create your own batch file with steps in order mentioned in xml file.
Booted my phone in fastboot mode (volume down + power). Connected phone with PC using usb cable.
Launch 'Minimal ADB and Fastboot' on windows PC. Note: i am attaching all tools that i used to rest version related questions.
Run the batch file you created in step #3.
With these steps, I was able to get my phone up and running. Thanks a lot to all members for their help.
Regards.
