my phone softbricked during the update process , now it is not booting up,
how to check if my bootloader is updated or not , and can i use your method for flashing stock firmware again.
I can boot into recovery and bootloader mode , in recovery it shows kitkat recovery
XT1033
My XT1033 Dual Sim Brazilian was in 4.4.4.
I updated to 5.0.2 via OTA official by the device itself.
But I found the slower Lollipop and would like to downgrade.
I never did bootloader unlock.
This method serves for the Moto G XT1033 Dual Sim Brazil Retail?

the command we used has two skipped commands,these code r published on many pages but they don't skip those files and phone gets bricked due to that,so its a warning that don't copy from there.

so if i use ur method and downgrade my system to kitkat from lollipop without using that two commands
then after downgrading can i flash kitkat again but this time using that bootloader and partition command ??
bcos now my system is running on kitkat........so will my phone brick
or will i have to use a diffrent method to downgrade the bootloader too.....
U can just simply install lollipop as usual..... Refer to this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp5JqW5SVWQ

This method is tested by me yesterday and is 100% working. Only one problem -now when I have bootloader unlocked and kitkat 4.4.4 , every restart of phone I have thease stripes going from up to down on the screen and causing defect of the picture. If I turn off and on the display- everything is ok. Anyone knows something about this bug? Thanks . Sory for my English
Its is common bug,i m also having this.....there is no fix for this yet.but there is no need to worry as this doesnt cause any problems with the device!!

1. All data is lost. Make a backup.
4. This method requires an unlocked boot-loader, which voids your warranty.
I'm not sure about the rest of the questions.(I believe you should be able to get updates/upgrade to the latest version of android)
thank you man, I raised my moto G :fingers-crossed:
I tried to downgrade from 5.0.2 but I gave also the two additional commands, therefore I bricked the device.
Tried to flash the 4.4.4 firmware and clearly it doesn't work.
Tried to flash again the 5.0.2 (BR version), but no luck. The phone remains in the unlocked bootloader screen.
I can throw away the phone? :crying:
Hi I am new here.
With you guides and all I have successfully rooted and unlocked the bootloader of my phone.
I saw some people had problems unlocking bootloader on 1.17 firmware, so I unlock bootloader while I was on 1.16 firmware.
After that I flashed twrp recovery and I recovery I got option to root so I even rooted my phone.
Now I want to do firmware update to 1.17.1234 and then 1.17.1531 and then android M.
Can someone tell me how to do this ?
I read that this canot be done through twrp recovery.Also I am not receiving ota due to unlocking phone.
so please provide me links to ota package to, I'm asking for ota package which is small than firmware package available on asus site.
If other ways to update tell me please
@fey34515 Note that you need to flash stock recovery to achive what you want
Follow these intructions
sziraqui said:
1. Download ZE550KL's Stock_boot_recovery.zip
This zip contains stock signed recovery.img and boot.img. Extract it and copy both .img files to the folder where you have adb and fastboot files.
Download correct firmware for your ZE550KL of the correct SKU. You can find your SKU on your phone's box.
WW SKU : Download ZE550KL's firmware v1.17.40.1531 for WW SKU only
Let me know if your phone's SKU is not WW
Copy the firmware zip (UL-Z00L-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip) to your external sd card.
2. Connect your phone to computer and Reboot phone to fastboot mode.
3. Now run the following commands
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
3. Third command should reboot your phone to recovery mode.
Now, in recovery mode-
A) select "wipe cache partition" then select yes
B) select "apply update from sdcard" then select "UL-Z00L-WW-1.17.40.1531-user.zip" and finally select "yes"

This is the safest way to upgrade to MM. This is exactly how I upgraded to MM yesterday. You will lose root once you flash 1.17.40.1531. But you can reroot by flashing twrp and supersu again
one we unlock the boot loader is it possible to re lock it
Help me

Reboot to fastboot mode then execute
Code:
fastboot erase system
Then flash 1.17.40.1531 zip from recovery. "Verifying update package" message will last for 2-5 mins.
Once you have flashed .1531 update you should reboot to system finish setup then flash MM ota. MM ota will be stuck at "patching system" for 15-25 mins. That is normal
Im almost on the same boat, so OP any update if you were able to fix your phone using the instructions on this thread?
Since I lost everything from the boot to the recovery to the system part to anything, i haven't been able to boot the phone;
I can access erecovery but when I try to recover the phone it stops at downloading and then says couldn't connect to servers so that's dead;
I can access TWRP but when I try to flash MM, it returns errors saying that it couldn't mount partitions (Vendor, cust and other...)
I can access fastboot mode. Some people suggested that I should try recovering using dload but the transfert rate to the sd card is taking forever;
Now I extracted everything from update.app using huawei firmware extractor (see http://imgur.com/MWeCCXi ) what should I flash (via fastboot) and in what order?
I would really appreciate the help.

By Nougat I assume you mean the file that has been digged out somewhere in the web and that is floating around here in the forums?
Well we all don't really know what this build exactly is, which makes it very hard to reconstruct your errors and give you advice... I would never flash that but okay, that's why we are here
Do you have a TWRP backup that you can restore (and if no, maybe somebody can upload you a clean TWRP restore file)?
Have you tried flashing CM / AICP?

Hi there. Earlier I spent a few painful hours in the same boat you were in. I've managed to get back to a fresh install of the Nougat build from this thread, but can't seem the downgrade to MM using the (translated from Spanish) instructions found here (linked from that first thread). How did you manage to get back to MM?
(I should add that I tried to flash boot, system and recovery via fastboot without any success).
Cheers

May god have mercy on your soul.
For the downgrade, I didn't use the b161 directly. I flashed some oeminfo provided in the same folder as the TWRP. Then used b150 ans the three boutons method. Worked like a charm.
Hope it will help you downgrade your phone.
I have the same problem, someone could explain it to me step by step, please

unpack your firmware, extract stock recovery.img and flash it.
But for flashing do I need to unlock bootloader or it can be done without unlocking?

As far as i remember to flash partitions with stock firmware you don't need unlocked bootloader.

If it needs to flash recovery the same way as we do for custom roms like fastboot flash recovery in platform tools then i tried that doesn't work to make it work bootloader needs to be unlocked I did that(unlocked the boot loader) then flashed stock recovery and it worked but after locking the boot loader with fastboot oem lock same issue happened again couldn't boot into recovery.

But for flashing do I need to unlock bootloader or it can be done without unlocking?

To flash ANY partitions, u must unlock bootloader even if the partition is critical or not. And to prevent the boot/recovery image damaged error, u must flash stock boot/recovery images along with vbmeta.img ( also extracted from stock, same build ).

Both, boot.img and recovery.img , also in some case, u must flash dtbo.img too. I dont know the exact situation of you so my advise is to flash both boot.img recovery.img dtbo.img and vbmeta.img

Hello, tell me that your recovery cannot decrypt the date section? I need to extract data from the phone, the phone won't boot into the system, I tried to boot into your recovery but I can't access the folders.

This is simply Stock Recovery with ADB enabled bro. It only can help u in some tasks which need to access adb via Recovery, it won't help to decrypt ur device and/or have any functions as other custom recovery
