Is there any moto soft to restore or update the firmware from desktop ?
I just got mine and want to clean all the crappy moto apps from system and do some tricks, but want to be sure that I'll be able to restore system in case I'm too "aggressiv" ^^

Ok ^^ Self Answering
Probably using RSD lite
Tuto and files/drivers "here"
And some firmwares (+ bootloader) "here"
WATCH OUT ! METHOD NOT TESTED YET (by myself at least)
The "here" are empty cos it seems i'm not allowed to post link, which means not allowed to help you ^^ Sorry for that

still i am not able to enter recovery mod, so i am not able to hard reset

The key combinations are different for every bootloader.
If you are rooted and you installed custom recovery menu then you have JB bootloader and the key combination specified by you should work.
But if you are on stock firmware (with stock recovery menu) then you have KK bootloader and the key combination is different:

Do the instructions you said, but don't release volume, just release power button at LG logo and then press it again right away.

Thx bro for answer !!!
When i try pressing just Volume + and Power
My phone restart and black screen and restart and black screen TT

Flash a stock ROM through Odin. That should get you back to a running state. From there you can customize as needed. None of the key combinations need the home button to work, so you shouldn't have issues. But, you should repair that home button anyway.

if you still have a recovery then you need to let go of the buttons as soon as you see blue text at the top of the screen. if you continue holding the buttons it will try to boot the rom...

With broken home you can not enter recovery mode or download mode. Recommend replace a new home button or sell it to buy a new phone.

I dont think you need the home button. Press and hold volume up. Then press power button and release it after a few sec but keep holding volume up.
Same method applies for download mode only then with volume down.

@DSA: Next thing you know, he will have a way to reset the Knox flag.

Unrooted, locked, stock. update.zip?

I tried to post this in the frenzied 6.0 thread, but I can't follow all the cross talk. If I have an unrooted, stock phone, can I flash the update .zip and upgrade? Can anyone point to the update.zip? I don't want to "sideload" or any of that, we're too close to the real release for me to jack with all that, just wanted to know if I could simply update from stock recovery and move on with life.
Thanks

I found the update zip... But I can't get commands to show in recovery... Do you know the button press to show the commands?

I dont know which method you used but you need to flash a custom kernel after the rom afair. Did you flash the one?

Press and hold volume down, home button and the power key until you get to the Download mode screen.
Press volume down to restart.
Immediately press and hold volume up, home button and power button.
You will see a message about "Installing system update..." which will then change to a Recovery Mode screen.
Use the volume keys to select the factory reset option.
Press power key to confirm that choice.
Once the wipe is complete, use the volume up/down keys to select "Reboot device now" and press the power key.
