[GUIDE] [XT1022] Restore Stock 4.4.4 firmware

Many users are not able to manually update their XT1022 to 5.0.2 as they are not having stock firmware on their phones. That's why while updating they are encountering these errors and they are fed up !
The common errors being faced are :
Status 7 error while installation/unexpected contents error/System says a new update is ready to be installed and when you press "I am in", the phone reboots and while installation you see a dead android "android with a red error mark" and then the phone reboots to 4.4.4 and says that the last update was unsuccessful !
To avoid these errors, you need to be on stock firmware before updating manually.
Please note that if you are flashing pure untouched ROM/pure optimised ROM, then it doesn't mean you are flashing STOCK FIRMWARE ! FIRMWARE means a lot more. And you can't flash firmware through recovery !
Many people are flashing pure XT1022 ROM and then they are saying that "I have flashed Stock firmware but then also I am getting UNEXPECTED CONTENTS ERROR WHILE UPDATING" !
If you want to flash stock firmware, follow these steps :
Download and install Moto E drivers on your pc. Link : https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_detail/a_id/99012/p/30,6720,9146
Download mfastboot files and extract the files in a folder. Link : https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B05Crz57q4zgZE1aVW5FT1RsUUU&usp=sharing
Download Stock firmware for XT1022 and extract the files to the same folder. Link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B05Crz57q4zgY2lWUE9KZjlGeVU/view?usp=sharing
Now, reboot your phone into bootloader by pressing volume down + power for a few seconds. You will see the bootloader screen.
Go to the folder where you have extracted Stock Firmware and mfastboot files and open command prompt there (Press shift + right mouse button and click on open command prompt)
Now, its the time to enter commands. Execute these lines of command one by one checking that each command you executed returned ok !
commands :
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.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot.exe 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 reboot
If every command you entered was successfully executed, your phone will reboot into stock firmware !
Now, you can upgrade to 5.0.2 manually
Hit thanks, if helped

Unified firmware thread request
I appreciate a lot your efforts. This will help a load of people who bricked their devices, want to factory reset or just reflash or update to 6.X. However, you should take down all your pages and instead upload all the firmwares in an unified thread, so you won't need to search separately.

I did them separately so they would be easier to find, rather than clicking a thread and searching through pages

Not unless someone on the forums has. I'm not sure. If not. It's relatively quite easy to flash. Not as hard as it seems

Hi dude! Of course there is a way to make a flashable zip from this.

Is that not for things like flashing custom recoveries? I assumed you had to use kitchen tools to make a stock rom flashable zip... Though times do change

Well the easiest way is with a kitchen but you can do it without one.
I think in edify we have some functions to flash images

how do i flash just the modem file from the official firmware?

i tried
fastboot flash modem non-hlos.bin
but there isnt a file by that name in the potter_NPN25.137-83.zip firmware.
should i grab another firmware or try something else?

Hmm, the firmwares should have that file included in them.
Have you extracted the stock ROM from the zip (should be about 2 GB) and copied it to the same folder as your ADB terminal?
You may wish to double check the filename case and if the file name is capitalised or not (e.g. non-hlos.bin may not be the same as NON-HLOS.bin in the file system).
Generally, if you wish to flash just the modem, provided you have all the files in your ADB directory, use the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Ensure you're flashing the correct firmware/modem for your device - incorrect firmware/modems can cause you to lose network access/IMEIs.
