This is a community port of SailfishOS to Moto Z Play (addison), based on LineageOS 14.1 (previously 13.0).

Status
Version: alpha
Works: graphics, sound, mobile data and calls, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, camera, video HW decoding, Keyboard Mod
Known not to work yet: ?
Unsupported: fingerprint sensor, Moto Mods besides keyboard

Installation
Since there are no LineageOS 13.0 builds for the device, I currently embedded stripped custom build into Sailfish OS zip, so Lineage OS doesn't need to be installed separately. You can have any other ROM installed and switch between Sailfish OS/that ROM by flashing boot partition backup. Beware that the stock ROM has forced encryption for /data partition, so you either need to install LineageOS or modified stock firmware if you want to boot to Android as well.
  1. Make sure your data partition is decrypted (may require formating userdata partition from fastboot)
  2. Boot TWRP recovery
  3. Backup your current boot partition
  4. Flash sailfishos-addison-release-2.1.3.7-rel3.zip

Downloads:

2.1.1.0: sailfishos-addison-release-2.1.0.11-test.zip

2.1.3.7:
2017-12-27: sailfishos-addison-release-2.1.3.7-rel2.zip
2018-03-31: sailfishos-addison-release-2.1.3.7-rel3.zip
2018-04-05: sailfishos-addison-release-2.1.3.7-rel4.zip

3.0.0.8:

Yes, able to attach BT keyboard and send files to another phone, connecting other devices is untested though.

TheKit:

I am following this as I also have a Moto Z Play.
I would like to help as much as I can, but I do not have much programming skills.
