Greetings. :highfive::good:​

So, this will restore the mobile from GPE to Stock 4.4.4 with dual sim capability ?

When does the android s friends

No,
This will restore XT1033 from GPE 4.4.4 to Moto 4.4.2 , but if you like you can OTA to Moto 4.4.4.

When does the android l friends

Awesome, but i have a question.
Some people just take the gpt.bin, replace it to 4.4.2 firmware pakage and flash without flashing motoboot.img.then ok.
Some people take logo.bin too.
But i did not see anyone take the emmc_appsboot.mbn. can u explain what is emmc_appsboot.mbn
Sorry for being noob.
Btw, how many devices did u test?

@windylawyer.1712,
Hi,
i need to say that i'm a noob when it comes to qualcomm platform but after a little research in google, i got some results and to my understanding ;
emmc_appsboot.mbn which is flashed into aboot partition keeps information about the emmc file system structure. So what's aboot partition ? I'll quote from Master Dan Rosenberg here.
aboot loads the kernel and ramdisk into memory at the addresses requested by the boot image header, and then signature validation is performed after this loading is complete. Because the boot image header is read straight from eMMC flash prior to any signature validation, it contains essentially untrusted data. As a result, it's possible to flash a maliciously crafted boot image whose header values cause aboot to read the kernel or ramdisk into physical memory directly on top of aboot itself!

Other methods that i've seen without the " emmc_appsboot.mbn " flashing step, seems to halt the phone on startup and returns to bootloader menu, then you need to press Normal Powerup to boot the device.
However the method in OP, the phone just boots fine. Hope this helps and if there's something to be corrected, i'd be more than happy to learn something new.

Hello fatih,
I think XT1032 GPE will get Android L after a month for the Nexus Line. XT1033 or XT1032 moto editions might get it about 3 months...

Preflash validation failed
I have got a 1032. Used to have GPE, installed as 4.4.2, OTA upgraded to 4.4.4.
I want to get back the Motorola ROM, 4.4.2, or 4.4.4.
When I tried, I got a few "Preflash validation failed" errors, bootloader complains: "version downgraded for xxx". After the "downgrade" I have got just bootloader and recovery. No sstem can be booted/installed.
I have also tried this script (first few steps), but I have got the same errors for the first 2 commands
Tried with 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 xml.zip versions as well.
Code:
mfastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
mfastboot getvar max-sparse-size
mfastboot oem fb_mode_set
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot oem fb_mode_clear
mfastboot reboot

... and after the whole thing ran, boot process stops in logo (bootloader is open blahblahblah...)
bootloader / recovery can be started, nothing more.

is this method working successfully??

I had the same issue. What I did was, in code 4.2, before this line:
"mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin",
i added
"mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3",
as in the archive, there are three sprsechunk files.. Then the device booted up fine. Pls try and do let me know if I am wrong.
Is it necessary to flash all modules if we just want to return to stock recovery and remove root? Can we remove root and lock the bootloader without flashing all modules?
Thank you very much bro.. Issue resolved

UK xt1092 received

The title should have "update"... Thanks autoincorrect.
Sent from my XT1052 using XDA Free mobile app
Mine's just on the way down.
Just got mine but it won't update. I have no idea why. Maybe it's because I have a custom recovery?
It says it's expected to have a version ie victara and I have cm_victara. Any one know how to get this to update? My phone is currently rebooting constantly unless I turn it off myself.
Custom recovery is why. Look for guides to reflash

I just used multi tool to install the stock recovery and wipe but it still won't work. Any ideas?
Please can someone upload the GB Retail firmware for the XT1092 if they have now got this successfully. Thanks!
Thats interesting, so the EU and GB versions have the same baseband.
Might be alright to stick to the EU firmware for now then, maybe it gets the next update faster
There's nothing on the surface to mark it out as being GB specific.
To be fair, I'm not sure a week's update difference is enough for me to care.

It's a factory image you can flash it over anything you currently have running. Open the Multi tool folder and you will see some called 'msfastboot' Make a new folder on your desktop and place that in there, then download the factory image I gave you the link for and extract it into the same folder you placed the msfastboot into. Then, whilst in that folder hold the shift key on your keyboard and then right click on your mouse and select 'open a command window here' Then put your phone in fastboot by turning it off and holding the power and volume down keys at the same time. Then, in the terminal you opened earlier type these commands one at a time:
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin (REMOVES YOUR CUSTOM BOOTLOGO (Not neccessary))

Multi-Tool is made for the XT1095, so that's probably why. It even says that in the title.
You can use my guide here, to convert your phone back to XT1092 and get RETEUALL instead.

I wouldn't bother with the RETEU version if you're in the UK, the link I gave you is to the official RETGB factory image. As regards your problem try putting the msfastboot in your ADB folder and also extract your RETGB zip into the same folder, then open up a terminal in that folder and run the commands. Also, have you put your phone in fastboot and let Window automatically install the fastboot driver for your device?
Edit to add: If you are having problems though the RETEU is the same and you'll still receive official OTA's in the future. Just try what I typed above and if all else fails follow the other posters guide to install rthe RETEU version.

Got it. I actually almost couldn't find my ADB folder. Somehow I didn't have in C: and had it installed in my documents folder. dumb.
But yeah I managed to get it. This means I get all future OTAs right? and Even if I don't I could still use that method to update? And thanks so much guys. Really appreciate it, I thought I was never going to get Lollipop on this.

Yes, you will get all future OTA's. This is an official RETGB retail image. It's exactly what you would have got if you had received the OTA normally, but instead of upgrading you've done a fresh install.

Is there a way to flash 4.4.4 images again? i went straight to L when i got my phone and didn't get a chance to test it out on kitkat, but it fails to flash the partition or motoboot image as the current version is too high, do you know how to bypass the checks?

Then, whilst in that folder hold the shift key on your keyboard and then right click on your mouse and select 'open a command window here' Then put your phone in fastboot by turning it off and holding the power and volume down keys at the same time. Then, in the terminal you opened earlier type these commands one at a time:
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin (REMOVES YOUR CUSTOM BOOTLOGO (Not neccessary))

Thank you for your link.
Could I ask, If i flash this over my european moto x will it turn it into a GB version in settings and receive future OTA updates? I assume it should.
Likewise do I need to unlock my boot loader to flash this, or will putting into fast boot do.
Thanks for your advice in advance.

Yes and yes and no you don' t need to unlock. But why do this as the reteu model received the update before the retgb model, you can just sideload the ota if you didn't get it yet?

Are... those.... official images of lillipop rom for stock motorola oem ? Oooooh awesome. Now we need to know what to flash stright from GPE 5.0.1 so it would work perfectly.
Maybe move it to development section so it won't blend in spam threads in this general ?
But that would be nice to upload it somewhere where it would take shorter than 2h to download.
Here is the updated flashing guide
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache

Yes, there are 4 system chunks this time
so this one will work right out of the box, right? I want to try brazilian rom, since my carrier is refusing to unlock my imei with gpe rom. I think it's nonsense, the unlock code will probably fail with this one as well.

I think you will need to unlock the bootloader, and changing the firmware will not change your IMEI either.
and the links work.
anyone have mirror link ?
i don have premium account for file factory

Yes, of course the Imei has never been touched but my carrier says it can't be unlocked because I messed with the rom

| Read Before You Flash | Unlock | Restore | Stock Firmware |

Read Before You Flash ​
A cautionary advice. If you unlock your bootloader the warranty of all non eu devices are lost. Also to claim warranty of an unlocked EU device you'll need to live in the European Union. Also locking the bootloader won't give back the warranty.
If you came on xda to root and modify your phone, you'll probably need to follow these guides first
For instructions regarding installation of stock firmware head over here
To Restore back to stock head over here
Please keep the discussion regarding each topic separate in their individual threads itself. It'll make managing the threads a lot more easier. This thread is for posting stock firmware only

i know but i said currently there is no cdma nor US based stock firmware yet from moto. i think users should know that before they try to root or flash anything.

Ah! My fault but from what I heard Motorola never releases the firmwares they leak. Also the site as sfdev is down so I think it'll probably take longer

@Lucas Eugene
my device is moto e 2015 3g
I unlocked bootloader to root it, after that i read carefully that it meant for LTE version, i then locked the bootloader again without doing anything at same time,
Then when i reboot it gives me "invalid system image" error, and refuses to boot. Then again i unlocked bootloader, it went well, its working
I want to make my device as it was when i purchased it.
Any stock firmware available for my device.
Please suggest some workaround to overcome the above problem.

You can't reverse time and go back to the original Bootloader state ever. If you lock after unlocking it would just give you a code 1 instead of 3. Also if you live outside the EU your warranty is void as soon as you unlock.
There's no harm to unlock if you don't go further to install unstable operating systems.
Also the firmware for the non lte hasn't been leaked yet
@lohanbarth
can you arrange stock for moto e 2nd gen 3g version?
How about Unlock Bootloader !!

Now if we could get the stock US version (XT1527_RETUSALL_MOTOE2 (4G-LTE) _5.0.2_LXI22.50-13_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml)
will this XT1524 version work for a US 4G-LTE variant XT1527? Would it be possible to flash to this, then unlock the bootloader/root/etc?

New update (MPJ24.139-63) released on September 9, 2016 for moto G4 plus.

I have found that the new update is not a newer Android version but a security patch according to identifications made in July 2016.
Total size of update is 508.4 MB.
Some people have reported problems with notification sounds.
Do we have any more news about this update.?
Please upload stock rom for indian variant moto g4plus xt1643

Motorola claims that they have solved all the reported issues except heating because of its board.
Many people have found that notification volume is decreased to 30%.
Could you share detailed information about what is included in update?
Have you reported this with Motorola?

If you are using unrooted phone the I would suggest you to report this with Motorola. Let us know how do they respond and if they are willing to offer any quick solution to this issue.
first thing first: I have rooted using systemless root method. so if I update to this latest patch will I have to root it again? and will it be a complete factory reset or I can expect my apps persisting after update?

Same thing happened to me ! What I did is I just gave my mobile to service centre they flashed original firmware( don't forget to remove warning image )
I got this update and after updating, I am facing low notification sound.
Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk
By my ear notification sound is about 60% what it was before (this is sitting two devices next to each other and comparing the updated device at max volume with the non-updated device, when the nud's volume bar was at ~60℅ they sounded equal). Incidentally 100℅ on the non-updated device was probably a bit too loud.
I've contacted Moto and requested they acknowledge the issue and provide a timeframe for a solution; I have threatened to return both devices to my supplier. I'll share the reply.
The US unlocked XT1644 didnt get any updates. Anybody expecting android 7.0 before the holidays is going to be disappointed.
