so has anybody created a factory type image yet. NOT a flashable zip. unless I can get twrp working that wont help me.
FAST BOOT WORKS
I'm not 100% sure, but you may have to use "mfastboot" which is the motorola version of fastboot. You can find it with a quick search.
So you were on 5.1 and downgraded to Kit Kat? You can't downgrade the bootloader.

I'm going to stop you right there,.
To install an OTA, you need STOCK reocvery. If you have a 3rd party recovery like TWRP or CWM, the OTA process might reboot your phone into Recovery but it will fall to install.
If you have 4.4.4 on your phone, you need to get that exact Recovery.img and flash it. You can't use a 5.1 recovery because the pre-flash validation checks that happen as part of the OTA will likely complain that its not the right version.

You can't downgrade from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 without risking turning your phone into a brick.
What state is your phone in now? WHat bootloader version does it have on it?
If you have bootloader 30.B7, consider downloading the 4.4.4 XT1060 SBF/FXZ moto has on their web site, and visit -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/faq-how-to-prepare-ota-update-carriers-t3126425 read post 1 and 2... From Post 2, use the Requirements section, then skip to option 5 to get to stock 4.4.4. then try the OTA
ok lest start over
i was rooted with twrp
i returned to stock and flashed system and recovery from
VZW_212.56.26.ghost_verizon.Verizon.en.US
took both OTAs got onto lolipop seemd to be working
went to flash twrp it said flashed OK
but I could not boot into recovery
tried to laod a cuple differnt recoveries.
then tried to restore the whoel thing
VZW_212.56.26.ghost_verizon.Verizon.en.US
gpt failed
recovery failed
then I tried to install a recovery boot and moto boot frfom a different 5.1. ( after verifying that a couple 5.1 roms had the same size moto boot and boot) flashed but gpt is messed up and wont restore.
either I have broke it or I need a factory image from lollipop
i will try to check my boot loader version. but i bet its updated as a resultof th OTA
got twrp working
does any one have a complete nanadroid of verizon lolipop
got twrp working
does any one have a complete nanadroid of verizon lolipop

How did you get TWRP working under 5.1? Someone else had similar issues here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/xt1060-recovery-5-1-t3201391
Well that was me... Eventually I got twrp working but I don't know what kind of bastard kitkat lolipop Frankenstein thing it was. Phone will not boot. It is on its way back to motorolla

Hey bud, when you say the phone won't boot do you mean you can't even boot into the bootloader, or do you mean the screen goes black after the boot animation?
If it's the latter the same thing happened to me today and I know how to fix it.
Won't boot. It went back to Motorola yesterday. Love extended warranty. Backup phone droid incredible 1 with KitKat . loving the 3g

I was asking you to clarify what you meant by "won't boot" since that could mean multiple things, but it doesn't matter if you already sent the phone back. Glad you have the extended warranty.
yes extended warranty is great.
sorry by wont boot i meant complete brick, not boot loop. no boo tlogo, no motorolla logo, no bootloader unlocked warning screen. just dark dead, as a doornail.
it wold not even get int eh boot loader.
i have never bricked a phone before. i want trying to downgrade. i have been rooting ( the hard way) since eclair on my lg ally, so not a newb.

How long after you requested access to the file did you get it?
just got approved for it, took about 15 minutes?
usually its 24 hours but i guess they want people to get to stock for the ota .
took me about 30minutes.
Someone who has already downloaded the file could you please host it somewhere mirror site?
Thank you very much!
EDIT: No longer need! Already received the e-mail with the download liberation.
It would appear they only have one image for the pure edition which is for TMO.
Does Motorola release images for the European xt1092 pure edition model?
Did anyone try to flash the original image?
I just tried and it bricked my phone!!!
Maybe because I'm downgrading from 5.0 to 4.4.4??
did anyone manage to downgrade it?

I down graded using the flash directions listed on the Motorola site and it worked perfectly fine. In fact I am now puling down the official Lollipop Soak test form the Moto servers right now.
What error do you have?

It just didn't boot.
After 10 seconds of boot animation it went to black screen.

Regular adb fastboot works fine but I can't get fastboot.exe included in the package to work.
Any ideas as to why? Motorola says not to use adb fastboot, so wasn't sure what the difference is. Thanks.
I just use the fastboot from the android SDK
If I flash this factory image to an xt1092 it will probably eff up the baseband and imei stuff right? Then I have to restore the original baseband/modem files for the 1092? I'm just trying to get my 1092 to be as much like a 1095 as possible. I purchased the device thinking it was a 1097 from south america but it ended up being a euro 1092. Kinda pissed moto enabled so few LTE bands. My Sony z3c has like nine or ten bands enabled.
now it worked! weird...
=\

Does the bootloader need to be unlocked for this to work?
Bootloader
I was also wondering if the bootloader needed to be unlocked. I sideloaded the initial Lollipop zip but do not have an unlocked bootloader.
Thanks for any help.

Ok hi guys, been lurking this forum for quite some time and i have had a couple of phones with zero problems really.
But now im at breaking point really.
Im using Ressurection remix 7.0 ROM and its just been kinda slow for me. So ive decided that i want to return to stock!
But motorolas website had no files for the xt1572, well thats no problem there is someone that has a guide on this on the forums, said and done i found this.
Problem is that the flashing fails for me.

In bootloader it says xt1572 but when i connect USB and check in file manager (windows) it says 1575. Is this wierd?
anyway, is there anyone that is an android god that can get me through this. Im losing my mind, things were easier last time
Ask for anything, ill supply you as good as i can!
"Preflash Validation Error" means the ROM you are trying to flash, or that portion like the gpt.bin (partition table), is older than what is installed. This means the stock ROM you had before you flashed RR is newer than what you are flashing. I can tell you that the latest stock version is not available (yet) so you will be a version behind.
If you are sure you have the latest ROM you can get and it is specifically for your device, skip gpt.bin and flash the rest... If bootloader.img fails, skip that as well, but everything else should work. Sometimes the radio pieces need to be flashed more than once so that they take. Once you take your first OTA on stock, it should line everything back up and be "normal" again.
Of course, the best thing would be to restore your stock ROM backup you did in TWRP before you started...
I'm sorry of this is a noob question, but I found this: http: // www . filefactory . com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27 <--- which contained a bunch of stock roms. (I'm a new user, so I can't post links; just remove the spaces)
I bricked my phone with an incompatible SuperSU (stuck on Moto boot screen), so I need to flash 6.0.1 for XT1644 (I think it's unlocked/USA variant but idk)
I tried one that I found called "XT1625-XT1644_ATHENE-RETUS_MPJ24.139-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml_2.zip" which said that it was 6.0.1, but when I tried to flash, it said:

Apparently, I'm flashing the wrong version of the firmware, but there's like 10 pages of downloads on the filefactory link, and it takes about an hour to download each... Can anyone help me out here?
Thanks!
That firmware should be okay, however that error is normal if you're attempting to flash a build older than the build you currently have/had. I'm guessing you had either MPJ24.139-64 or Nougat on your device before? Your updated bootloader and gpt blocks any downgrades (and thus reduces the chances of bricking your device).
You may be able to flash your older firmware (and downgrading in the process) if you do not flash gpt or bootloader, omit:
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
The rest of your flashing commands should be the same. Of course, verify your bootloader is unlocked (which it should be if you were flashing SuperSU), else you won't be able to downgrade.
Thanks for your quick response!! I downgraded without problem! Also rooted with a compatible SuperSU this time... Then disabled the OTA daemon, so it wouldn't auto update, and brick myself, since I'm running an earlier version of the bootloader (correct me if I'm wrong...) Thanks again! :good:

Woo, good to hear you've got your device working I think with the OTA, you should be okay as the bootloader blocked earlier attempts to downgrade and your subsequent flashes won't have affected those partitions, so it's unlikely you'll brick your device!
Hi guys finally i managed to unbrick the hard bricked phone ...
now my question is how should i choose the stock firmware for my device which is Indian variant - XT1686 32 GB
Bcoz as there are lots of different variants .... i have tried brazil
XT1681-XT1683_POTTER_BRASIL_LATAM_MEXICO_7.0_NPN25.137-15_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
2017-02-05
this doesnt give IMEI numbers it will make them 0 so can u guys please tell me how should i choose the variants
and also please if some one have the recent boot loader.img, recovery.img and gpt.bin please provide me im stuck in boot loop ... just the sake until we get oreo update - XT1686 is my phone
i am not able to use my phone right now request you guys....
It's normal not to have your IMEI on stock if you've flashed Oreo ROMs before.
You can follow instructions in this thread if you want to get IMEI back.
Happy flashing!

Okay dude .... Let me explain very quickly ....
First off I bought this device like 8 months ago .... 1 week b4 I flashed customs ROM that is lineago os 15.1 which was recent for my device .... Everything was fine until yrstdy.... Yrstdy morning what I did was I planned to flash normal stock ROM to my phone .... Using some brasil version by watching YouTube ... Everything went well I was like thank god and then I inserted the sim but there was not network due to imei issue ....
This is where problem started...
Thinking after I do the OTA update security patch might go back and I might get the signal but then I did ota update and phone restarted ... It showed installing updates in half wat it suddenly switched I realised that I hard bricked my phone ...
Then searched the whole xda forums and found this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/help/moto-g5-plus-hard-bricked-recognized-t3636457/page6
By Rakesh1b.....
I did the same I used potter blank flash and my phone woke up after trying it several hours....
Then when I tried to flash bootloader of moto g5 plus it showed error like I previously displayed ..... Well there was one more post for all of these 3 files, bootloader.IMG gpt.bin and recovery.IMG well I did flash all of them they seem to be worked ...
Then I tried to flash moto g5 plus twrp recovery which gave me error of failure...
Then I tried moto z2 play twrp ... God damn it got flashed and went into twrp recovery then as I studied as per @Rakesh1b ......
And now I'm stuck here ..... Not able to go front...
I get error like /cache not found when I try to flash custom os ...
What all I need now is moto g5 plus boot loader.IMG recovery.IMG gpt.bin
Of January security patch ... Mine last update was November security patch
I request some one to give those files or give a proper solution for this plzzzzzz

Thank you for the explanation, your situation seems to (mostly) make sense to me now.
You probably realize this in retrospect, but you should not have accepted an OTA on stock with no IMEI. But enough with that, what exactly do you mean by "my phone woke up"? I'd love to offer you a solution, but to find one, I'll need to know if "waking up" involved booting into Android, booting into the bootloader, or whatever.
u should unlock bootloader first.. the version of bootloader is lower than on ur phone, you should not OTA update, OTA did upgraded ur bootloader ver to latest..

THE FIRST THING U SHOULD TO UNLOCK BOOTLOADER before to try and CWM OR TWRP, custom rom..
Hey guys thanks for everyone's assistance here
i have successfully flashed Pixel experience ROM to my phone by using this procedure
1st. Blank flash your phone as per the above procedure..... (disable signature enforcement if u are using windows 10)
press and hold power button you could hear that mobile disconnects and connects once you hear that then press voldown and power with one hand and run blankflash.bat and then release those buttons before u hear them again
2nd. Flash all 3 provided files in MotoG5Plus_addison2Potter in the attachement and it will take you to the boot loader
Using these Commands:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
(Flash the files from provided Zip attachment)
3rd. download Moto z2 play or plus twrp recovery as i didnt have time to compress everything i cud nt provide that, then flash the custom recovery, then try to enter into recovery mod and it should enter..... if u have done 1st and 2nd step properly then u will enter into TWRP recvery mod
and here is the link for debolated ROM download version 2 which has november patch on it....
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-...dexed-t3619972
then once ur in twrp mount it to ur pc and copy the debolate ROM to ur phone and then flash it though TWRP ....
once it is done reboot ur phone into os and it should successfully boot into ROM...
once done u can flash any custom ROM into ur phone using TWRP
But 1 major issue is that i lost 4g or VoLTE:
Can u guys please help me with that.....
I started my root journey with twrp super user and elementalx i flashed super user with the intention of installing magisk then i realized magisk is a root thing and i had to uninstall super user so i flashed stock rom and tried to install magisk again but then it failed i'm not 100% sure why it just wouldn't boot after install so i tried updating my device and then it hard bricked and i had to reinstall the bootloader and now when i try to flash stock the partition table is messed up and people on xda say i need the version that was meant for my phone but i've tried every 7.0 version i can find for x1664 and nothing works, so my question is, How can i get my phone working again, and how can i install magisk from here?

Were you able to flash bootloader first??
Also I hope you are just flashing bootloader and gpt.bin only from the downloaded stock rom only from the link i posted earlier.

That's because Magisk causes boot issues on Stock Nougat without custom kernel.
Reboot to TWRP then flash Magisk uninstaller (from magisk thread xda) and check if it boots. If it does not boot, then flash boot.img only from the Stock ROM and it should boot fine:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
After that install Elemental X Kernel first and then install Magisk and you will be able to boot properly.
