[GUIDE] Lollipop for XT1064 (CANADA ONLY)

This is a guide that is strictly for those who are as impatient as I am to get Lollipop on their Moto G (2014). I know there are several guides for folks in the US, and other countries as well, but currently there is no OTA for Canada yet. We are literally left out in the cold. So, I thought I would put a collaborative guide together so the Canadians can enjoy some 5.0, too!
First and foremost, if you F up your phone, that's on you. This will void your warranty, and I am in no way responsible for any stupidity you conjure up during the process.
I have only tested this on the XT1064, which is the single SIM US/Canada model.
The issue when trying to simply follow the upgrade guide for the XT1064 is that the OTA file looks for a 4.4.4 variant of Android that needs to be the same region as where the OTA came from. If you try to install it on the Canadian versions, you will get an error. So, here goes:
1. Unlock your bootloader. Follow this wonderful guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...wip-unlock-bootloader-moto-g-2nd-gen-t2875728
2. Download the US version of 4.4.4, it can be found here: http://www.filefactory.com/file/2ygnt0x45vcr/RETUAWS_XT1064_4.4.4_KXB21.85-17_cid9_CFC.xml.zip
3. Extract the above file to the same location you installed Minimal ADB in the first step (C:\Program Files(x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot)
4. Turn your phone off and disconnect it from the computer. Press and hold the volume down (-) button and power button to get into Fastboot mode. Connect your phone to the computer.
5. Run Minimal ADB and run these commands:
PHP:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
I removed the modem commands on purpose, and I will explain why later.
6. Once the phone has rebooted, plug it in to the computer and follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/lollipop-moto-g-2014-xt1064-t2937361
You should now have Lollipop on your Canadian XT1064!
If you have issues with the WiFi or cellular, you may have to flash the modem commands again from the old file. I had to download the original Canadian ROM (http://www.filefactory.com/file/78znv8hx0tvt/RETCA_XT1064_4.4.4_KXB21.85-16_cid14_CFC.xml.zip) and using Fastboot flash the following:
PHP:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
After that I had no issues and everything seems to be working as it should. You can relock your bootloader afterwards if you like as well.
Thanks to the other contributors above, I was simply trying to put a quick guide together for us Canadian folks who wish to get Lollipop, too!
Cheers!

This is great - although I think I'm still "out in the cold." I have 11.24 and couldn't flash the above due to "downgrading." Unless I'm missing something... Any ideas?

This worked for me! Thanks for the awesome tutorial!

At which part do you get an error? Are you trying to use a script to flash, or are you doing exactly step by step like mentioned above? I had the latest of the late on my Moto G 2014, so I know that these steps work on it.
Is your bootloader unlocked as mentioned above?

Yeah - I'm not sure what the problem was - originally it wouldn't take the US ROM due to a downgrade error. Tried it again, after a factory reset and for some reason it went through. Flashing Lollipop and the modem after was no issue at all - so good to go now. It's beautiful.
Thanks for the follow-up.
AKA: I should have just ignored downgrade error + HAB fail on phone, the first time around

I am getting hab check failed for boot when i use the command " fastboot flash boot boot.img "
please help

Disregard the error and move on to the next command. You are going to get a few errors. Don't worry.

installing update
verifying current system
/system/app/3c_main.apl has unexpected contents
installation aborted
this is after i run the commands and upload from sd card...
followed your commands and tried few fresh zips
can you please help, it won't let me install the lollipop file

Another way:
Go to this link, XT1064 > Lollipop, download the file and extract it.
And follow the same idea of OP but with few changes:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4

This one just avoid you to flash USA KitKat and then Lollipop. This one goes directly to Lollipop.
Doesn't flash Modem/Radio from USA Lollipop because doesn't work on Canadian models, at least didn't work with WIND Mobile model.

WIND canada moto G XT1064 lollipop
Thanks very much for posting this. and thanks for posting the link for 5.02 from MEGA which is a lot faster than filefactory!
I've attached a link to the original Wind 4.4 modem files in case someone's modem doesn't work afterwards, if they followed the top post original instructions and accidentally flashed the US KitKat 4.4 modems.. instead of downloading that huge file from filefactory.com (extremely slow site), the link has just the 2 files (22MB).

Also may be worth mentioning to ignore the "hab check failed" messages when flashing lollipop. (I was using mfastboot)

Just a super-dooper-uber Thanks To NexusChrist!
Who ever you are, I tried to follow your system. it didn't work for me, infact I lost wifi connection, but anyways what I did was I used another script for this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...dows-tool-moto-g-2014-xt1064-restore-t2957167) And this worked, but now I lost Cellular Service....Big problem eh? Well no more, thanks to you. I downloaded the Canadian rom, and just to be more specific (cause it was kinda vague in the tutorial, (Extract the files again to the Mininal ADB fastboot file location the whole c drive thing yenno?)) And I ran that php and BAM thank you so much I was worried out of my MIND that I f'ed up my phone somehow. Foreal, bless your soul....or your XT1064?
No XT1064s were hurt in the making of this post

That happened because you flash the modem from Lollipop... Just flash the modem in OP and you will be ok.

Just a tad bit curious I also have a Wind Mobile Moto G2 and i'm just wondering how you unlocked the bootloader in the first place. If you could please share the process on how you did it that would be great.

Anyone know how we can get the LP bootloader on the Canadian version?
I'd like to be able to update my CM12.
Thanks!

Awesome
I'm on Bell &
everything is working 100% radio/wifi/bluetooth all good
Thanks

This is a great guide. But I'm wondering if we've been given any explanation on why Canadian Moto G's aren't getting OTA updates? It's April and my Moto G is saying up to date with 4.4.4. It's from wind if that matters.
I understand we can do this work around. I'm just trying to understand why we're not getting updates.

Your carrier is most likely the reason since they have the final say on updates.

But what about the people that bought their phones from Staples. It's unlocked and not associated to any carrier. They are directly under Motorola and still no update at all. Phone are getting 5.1 update already, but we're still at 4.4.4
What's so different in the Canadian market from the US one that the update can't come fast? Specially if the phone is not associated to a carrier and the update should come directly from Motorola

There have been many 5.1 full firmwares uploaded for XT1095, XT1096, XT1097, and XT1092:

How about those two, what happen if I don't flash them?
Some say there's a brick risk with those.

It's only a risk if you are downgrading. If you are upgrading or flashing the same version, there is no risk.

Unless you're on Verizon's xt1096. The suspicion is that flashing those may preclude you from being able to use MoFo to flash a pre-rooted ROM. We have no other way to root, so I know people are planning to flash this file without gpt and motoboot included as a test. Here's hoping!
I'm uploading the Vzw file right now to share, since it took about 6 hours to download from that filefactory host.

Different carriers/devices. The Verizon Moto X currently does not have a 5.1 root or the ability to unlock the bootloader.

Hi all,
Which firmware can I use to get 5.1 on my moto x xt1097?
I have 5.0.1 (claro Chile) 22.21.25.victara_retla.retla.en.01 amxcl

You can use the 1097 from brazil retail or 1097 for movistar latin america. Another alternative would be to convert your firmware to 1095.
There will not be 5.1 for claro. Claro and Motorola had a fight. Claro no longer sells motorola phones, nor will be pushing firmware updates for them.

Are you flashing these with mfastboot? Or Android SDK fastboot? I have a mac and would love to figure out how to restore my xt1095 without borrowing a PC. Thanks in advance! I should mention that I'm not asking for instructions on how to use fastboot on a mac, I'm pretty well versed in that, but moto has thrown me a curve ball with this whole moto fastboot thing...

[GUIDE] Return to stock and "Official status" - Moto X 2014

Return to stock - Moto X 2014​
What you need:
Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Stock ROM Alternative 1 (Faster option)
Stock ROM Alternative 2 (Downloads speed are super slow if you are not premium)
Moto fastboot (mfastboot.exe) (This one is only needed if the file system.img is too big to flash (More than 500MB))
Steps:
Connect your phone to your computer and make sure to have "USB Debugging" enabled (About phone > Tap several times "Build number" > Go back > Developer options > Enable USB debugging)
Make sure your phone is at least 50% charged
Open ADB cmd (MAF32.exe)
Run this command to make sure it recognizes your phone.
Code:
adb devices
After it recognizes it, run the command (It should reboot into bootloader)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Unzip the downloaded STOCK ROM into the same folder as where you installed minimal ADB (C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot)
Open the "flashfile.xml" file with any text editor
The file tells you how to flash the files into your phone

Thanks, I'm also not fond of flashing ROM images via program scripts, I prefer the old step by step method. :thumbup:

Any word on XT1095 or XT1097_retca-retca? How freaken hard is it to capture an OTA or factory image these days?

I think "Modified" means you unlocked the bootloader, right?
I used to successfully update my xt1095 to 5.1 by these steps:
unroot by using the uninstalling root function in the SEusers, and flash the stock recovery.img back.
download the OTA update, and let it flash my phone automatically.
got a stock 5.1. then you may do whatever you want.

RSD Lite works perfectly in Windows 10.

I followed these steps, and reflashed to 5.1-21.3, then update to 21.6 (security patch).
Now I'm running 6.0! The OTA works!

We def need to get this stock image re-upped, because I could get gray hairs waiting for this to download... Anyone have any other links? Thanks

help!!! I downloaded the recovery image from the official motorola site, i have system image of 2 Gb and have no idea about how to flash the system image. I have a folder called windows(which was included in the recovery image zip that i downloaded) that folder contains a fastboot.exe file so is that the mfastoot file?If yes then how do i use it?
EDIT- Solved!

well, it's got all the right words and numbers (although the one I'm running from the TWRP method thread is MPE24.11-18, and this appears to be MPE24.49-18). I'm downloading it now - has anybody else tried it?

Can confirm, this is the real deal. Works a treat, and none of those RPC errors that plagued me on the TWRP backup image.

I am on Brazilian frimware with 6.0 now on my device, but my actual model of the device is xt 1092 Indian version.
I want to go back to Indian frimware. Have anyone tried downgrading from 6.0 Brazilian frimware to 5.1 Indian frimware, is it possible? Is full image of 6.0 out for xt 1092, if so please share the link.

Thnx for the info m8.
Could you upload it to something that is faster then filefactory perhaps? Cause this **** is SLOW
Thnx in advance
Cheers
Edit: it is also available here: https://mega.nz/#F!ow8igZRL!Z7vmN8GOpez2bVMYDvEKkg!IkEVHRxS
With thnx to @salaesp for finding the MU folder

Used this firmware on my MotoX
VICTARA_RETEU_XT1092_6.0_MPE24.49-18_cid7_CFC.xml.zip
And was able to get back to the stock state. The Bootloader is still unlocked but that I guess I can lock via OEM lock way?
Since this is the latest one couldn't verify if the OTA works or not.

Flash it manually using mfastboot command.

I have a doubt, i purchased a moto z with at&t México and flashed the retail firmware of this thread for my country and works fine, but when i enter in bootloader mode the info of the Phone shows that my Phone is a sheridan version, so i'm confused, what version i have? ��

Probably Griffin. As others already reported, on bootloader mode all reports to be Sheridans... :fingers-crossed:

Yeah, just to make things more... confused!
We have Z, Force, Play, single sim, dual sim, Verizon's, unlocked, etc... we *really* need confused codename and product codes to help us on this...
Anyway @motorola they are surely fans of The Griffin's series..... Sheridan is the surname of the series' director...

Located the US firmware and uploaded it to Mega if anyone needs it https://mega.nz/#!vtVmgAoI!J1cZtlRi0FjRHbxIJGA5U8CLx6RwUWQjwrCbjzf_Naw

Keep in mind depending on the region you're flashing you may have a different number of sparse chunks (I think VZW has like 16, where as stock has like 13) You just enter the amount of sparse chunks you need to flash.

Thanks; that worked - though now I find that the pre-Rooted EU ROM I was using doesn't seem to work with my Hasselblad Camera Mod.

I would just root yourself then. I couldn't get systemless root to work with the current TWRP available so I just flashed a forced System ROOT instead.

Download from there and flash it in TWRP. But say goodbye to Android pay obviously

:/ Ok; try as I might I cannot seem to get my Moto Z to boot if I have SuperSU installed. My bootloader is unlocked, and I've been able to flash different ROMS with no problem. But if I try to install SuperSU (v2.78-SR1) to a working ROM, or install JanJan's pre-rooted US ROM, then Android simply never boots. I just downloaded the three more recent versions of SuperSU to give them a try, but does anyone have any suggestions of what I might be doing wrong here?

Sounds to me like you need a different Boot image then. I flashed the boot.img that was disabled force encryption, then flashed the System mode SuperSU. No issues at all. US Moto Z 64 GB model.

link to indian firmware...not able to download it as filefactory.com is restricted... tried via apn also still a no go...can anyone download it and upload it to other server??

[HELP] Return to stock before selling G5 Plus!

Hi! I could really need some help over here!
I have a G5 Plus that i bought in Sweden, Europe. I unlocked bootloader, and flashed a ROM.
But now i´m going to sell it, so i need to reflash the stock image (ROM). Also i need to relock bootloader.
Can someone help me find the latest, working firmware, and also with the right commands to use with fastboot to do this?
Modell is: X1685.

Why would you need to relock the bootloader? I guess you will sell the device warning the person that it doesn't have warranty, right?

I was going to type this but then found this post....

Watch the Video which will help you to flash the firmware.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blYQ28DZJQk
Use FastBoot Command to flash the firmware (Backup you data as it would erase the internal Memory)
Fastboot command:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4

Be careful, it will flash the bootloader. If you have a newer version of the bootloader than th one you sumbitted, you will harfbrick your device.

If the stock ROM is older than what you have on your device, then the bootloaders usually prevent you from downgrading.
Hard bricks usually do not happen when you downgrade, they happen if you've downgraded and then take OTA updates (mismatches between the bootloader patch level and system patch level are a culprit). Best way to avoid this is to not downgrade.
At any rate, you cannot lock a bootloader with a build older than your existing stock firmware, regardless of custom ROMs flashed. You need a firmware of the same or newer build than your device stock firmware to relock. To the best of my knowledge, NPNS25.137-33-11 appears to be the newest or nearly newest firmware for EU devices. You can download from here https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto G5 Plus/Stock/ please confirm that this firmware is suitable before flashing.
You could try re-locking with other firmware, however NPN25.137-35 is for US devices, so would not likely receive OTA updates if flashed onto EU devices. As for warranty, the warranty isn't transferable as far as I know and as Motorola's got a record of the device being unlocked, the warranty is void. However, under EU consumer laws, you or the buyer could still get repairs if you're both resident in the territory. Would be wise to check this and let the buyer know.

There appears to be no fastboot flashable file for this version available anywhere on the internet. I've searched for days and had absolutely no luck!
Looks like both the OP and I are stuck on custom ROMs. Why Lenovo don't make these available I don't know...
If anyone knows of anywhere to get this please help us.
EDIT: Oh, also mine is XT1684 which I've seen virtually nothing about on XDA.

Mines a 1684, seems moto made 2 models for UK with same specs.
Regarding fastboot did you extract download zipped archive into fastboots folder.
When I say download follow the link above to firmware centre, if using phone to browse you need phone in landscape otherwise you cannot get name.

Thing is, there's no xt1684 version or retgb version. I fear it could be the wrong one, can't afford to replace phone so can't risk hard bricking it. Thanks though.
