This is another excellent example, and it introduces a **new and important `OK2` stage** that we haven't seen before: **`OK2Ramp`**.
Let's decode **Motorola XT2131DL DENVER_REWORK_OK2Ramp_8.0_RRE31.Q2-1-F.13 Engineering Rom**.
### Device Identification
* **Model: XT2131DL**
* **Device: This is the Motorola Moto G Stylus (2021)**, specifically a variant for Tracfone/Straight Talk (indicated by the `DL` suffix). Codenamed "guamp".
### Firmware Analysis
1. **`DENVER`**: The **project codename** for this firmware branch on the Moto G Stylus (2021).
2. **`REWORK`**: A significant revision of the software.
3. **`OK2Ramp`**: **This is the key new identifier.**
* In software and manufacturing, **"Ramp"** refers to **"Ramp-up"** or **"Production Ramp-up"**.
* This is the stage **after** a build is deemed stable (`OK2Ship`) but **before** it gets the final "Permanent" signatures (`OK2P`).
* It's a **pilot production** or **limited release** phase. This software would be flashed onto a limited batch of devices for final quality assurance testing in a real-world setting before full-scale manufacturing begins. It's the last chance to catch critical issues.
4. **`8.0`**: The 8th version of this "Ramp" branch, indicating substantial testing.
5. **`RRE31.Q2-1-F.13`**: The formal Android build number, with `F.13` indicating the 13th factory iteration.
6. **`Engineering Rom`**: This label is **more accurate for this build than for the `OK2P` builds we saw**. A "Ramp" build is still considered an engineering/internal build, though it's very close to final.

### What is the "Ramp" Stage?
Think of the development pipeline like this:
1. **`OK2S` (Engineering):** "Does the core software even work?"
2. **`OK2Ship` (Release Candidate):** "Is the software stable enough for users?"
3. **`OK2Ramp` (Production Ramp-up):** "Is our factory process reliable? Does the software work perfectly on the first 1,000 devices we make?"
4. **`OK2P` (Permanent/Production):** "Full speed ahead! Flash this on all devices for retail sale."
### **⚠️ WARNING & PURPOSE ⚠️**
This firmware is **very close to the final consumer software** in terms of stability, but it is **not the final version**.
* **Stability:** It should be much more stable than `OK2S` builds and comparable to `OK2Ship` candidates.
* **Build Type:** It is almost certainly still a **`userdebug`** build, meaning it has root ADB access and debugging enabled, making it less secure than the final `user` build.
* **Purpose:** This was used for final validation in a pre-production environment. It is not intended for public distribution.
### Comparison with Other Stages
| Stage | Example | Stability | Security | Purpose |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **`OK2S` (Engineering)** | `CEBU_REWORK_OK2S` | Very Low | Very Low | Internal Development |
| **`OK2Ship` (Candidate)** | `AUSTIN_REWORK_OK2Ship` | Medium-High | Low | Stabilization & Testing |
| **`OK2Ramp` (Ramp-up)** | **`DENVER_REWORK_OK2Ramp`** | **High** | **Low** | **Pilot Production** |
| **`OK2P` (Permanent)** | `BERLNA_REWORK_OK2P` | Retail-Stable | Retail-Secure | Mass Production |
### **What Should You Do?**
The advice remains consistent, but with a nuance for this higher-quality build:
* **If this is on your device:** While it's likely quite stable, it still lacks the final security hardening of a public release. You are missing out on official Over-The-Air (OTA) updates.
* **The Goal:** You should still seek to flash the official **retail firmware** for your XT2131DL. The final public build will be a `user` build ending in `release-keys`.
* **Tool:** The **Lenovo Motorola Smart Assistant (LMSA)** is your best bet for automatically finding and installing the correct retail software.
**In summary: `DENVER_REWORK_OK2Ramp` represents a high-quality, near-final build used during the factory ramp-up phase for the Moto G Stylus (2021). It is one step away from being the final retail software but is still an internal engineering build with `userdebug` properties and should be replaced with the official public ROM for optimal security and stability.**
