DOWNGRADE Danger of hard brick

Danger of hard brick
Mind you, the you that you have installed the version 5.1 and you please do downgrade.
If possible downgrade and works CORRECTLY, but does not drop the bootloader version. (Motorola apparently not contemplated back the bootloader)
Well, if after downgrade accept an OTA, OTA is flash the bootloader and, being superior version, fails, result: this just corrupt. The phone turns off and no more lights. If the computer connect this is recognized as QHUSB_BULK. That while you have battery, since neither charge.
There are many moto g afflicted with the same problem, and have been waiting to release the BLANKFLASHFILES files needed to revive the phone. Unfortunately it seems that Motorola only thing it does is send to the affected to a technical service, with subsequent payment of repair, as it seems to those files could change the IMEI, etc.
So you know, maybe not downgrade, but if ye do not accept any OTA, the cell dies.
I speak from experience,The announcement is made

I downgrade from 5.1 to 5.0.2 thanks for the info bro

i downgrade my moto e XT1524 and he's hard brick
moto G solution does not work for the moto e
is the a solution ???

can someone explain this with some better english?

In short, please never install any OTA update if you have downgraded from 5.1 stock rom to 5.0.2 stock rom. Otherwise your moto e will be dead permanently as motorola will never release the files to recover it.
If you have hardbricked in this way, only solution is to sell all parts individually except the motherboard like me. I have recovered 50% of its cost (Moto E 1st Gen).

Would flashing 5.0.2 bootloader along with downgrading prevent this issue ?

Excluding the flash bootloader probably would avoid the brick

LOL yeah no kidding..
I've done it but...
Like none of these guys mention.. Most use custom roms and god knows what else.
Most people here use CM and then assume everyone else does too
I have done it a few times and had no problems.

Sorry, I don't understand.
If I downgrade to be safe from brick I should:
a) Leave the the 5.1 bootloader
or
b) Flash the 5.0.2 bootloader and then flash Lollipop 5.0.2
?
Thanks in advance.

If you already have version 5.1 bootloader CAN NOT DOWNGRADE, that's what causes the brick.
The flash fails and nothing happens, do not touch it.
The OTA is that if it tries to update and how it can not be corrupted. No more lights.

Even if you would want, you couldn't downgrade INCLUDING bootloader )))
If the phone is unlocked, then any kernel, system, modem, and recovery can be flashed. Feel free to experiment, but don't receive any OTA after that. Receiving OTA on unlocked Motorola phone is prohibited, generally speaking. OTA mechanism isn't aware of every of your modification inside the phone, so kills what's not right to him.

Because you can relock the bootloader with fastboot commands, but Motorola will know anyway that you already unlocked it before.

I think You can re-unlock bootloader with the key you already used ( are you ask re-unlock or relock ? )

@sd_shadow, is this the latest stock firmware? My wife's Turbo is on the fritz and I may have to reflash it.

TWRP backup
I have 2 xt1254. One is broken but is accessible the other is totally fine. What I would like to do is mirror the phones. I was able to backup the 1st phone and transfer to the 2nd. The question is how to I install the original backup to 2nd phone to get a "mirror" image of the 1st phone. Both phones are xt1254 both have TWRP, rooted and bootloader unlock

OTA Update from LP to MM fails on my XT1254 for some reason. So im guessing i have to download this file and it should flash easily?

Any issue i should know about? Like risk of bricking or something? (or a major bug in MM )

sd_shadow I want to unlock the bootloader of my Motorola Droid turbo, if I flash a different bootloader to my Droid turbo could I unlock the bootloader with the official method? Or do you know where could I find the exploit or the source code?

I believe the updated script “flashall.bat” updates all G4/G4 Plus devices. Consider searching the guides section for fastboot update images.

Xt1622 it's Moto g4, wrong place to post!
In the comments people say it's working on xt1622 without problems: Nougat Update
Anyway this a Mashmallow factory image for xt1622: Moto g4 > Retail
