If i'm remembering correctly, the second ROM i sent you was the final kang he's talking about. I haven't been able to get back to it and do more work with it since 2.3 support is dying and my skills only go so far. Plus the original build files was on the laptop that died oh so long ago when i started getting cm11 spun up for us before m.ksy and aaahhh took over.

Bootloader Upgrader Tool [Falcon] [Peregrine] [41.18] [41.19] [41.1A]

Introduction
Recently, I have noticed about the multiple new roms that requires the boot 41.18+ and refuses to be installed over the 41.13 one, & that's why I had to "make" this script using various files from google, and other sites, and obviously a keyboard
I made a Spanish Version (wich has been tested many times) and now for xda, the english one
If you want something like this for another model, just provide correct bootloader, and let me see what can I do :fingers-crossed:
Supported devices:
xt1002, xt1003, xt1008, xt1028, xt1031, xt1032, xt1033, xt1034, xt1039, xt1040, xt1042, xt1045 :victory:
Download v1.29​Old downloads | Bootloaders in zip mode.
First of all, you should read post 3 (FAQ) We don't want your device gets bricked ​
Requisites:
-Have the motorola drivers installed.
-Usb cable.
-For the moment you need to use Windows.
-I'll try to get this working on Linux and Mac. Something went wrong I got a Mac, trying to make it.
Hope you find it useful. :highfive:
Don't forget to hit thanks if helped you! :good:

And this works only on xt1028, xt1031, xt1032, xt1033, xt1034, xt1039, xt1040, xt1042 xt1045, xt1002, xt1003 & the xt1008 variants. I think those are all variants available, but... however.
For Moto G 4G users
After upgrading, you may lose signal. To fix it, just flash latest radio firmware available here. As always, thanks to @lost101
For all users
Don't flash random bootloaders on random device, It can gets bricked!

Have a look before you try

Thank you.
P.D: I didn't test it but I appreciate your effort.

It should be mentioned that flashing an incorrect Bootloader (motoboot.img) could result in an instant hard-brick. Upgrading Bootloader is not something that should be casually done with any motoboot.img.
For safety, each model should have a specific script that includes the correct Bootloader for that model.

At the start of the script it tells you that is only for xt1032 and 33, but thanks, I'll add it to the OP.

I flashed full 5.0.1 lollipop ROM.
& in bootloader menu i can see 41.18
Does that mean bootloader is updated??

Shouldn't this work on XT1031? The bootloader for it is 41.19

Ya , boot-loader is something that actually flashes files to ROM.
Bootloader makes it possible for chip to communicate through USB.
So if you flash incorrect file then you need to correct that by mannually opening chip & connecting may be through ISB or any other available for ARM processor

You should not be so trigger-happy with flashing Bootloaders - every time you do, you risk destroying your phone.

I have not read of any XT1033 user flashing it. I would personally not be comfortable flashing it if I owned an XT1033 - as it is in no way worth the risk.
The v41.19 Bootloader is intended for XT1032 / GPE - and came included with the GPE Android 5.1 Firmware. It appears to be only a very minor upgrade, with no obvious changes. However custom recoveries often need redevelopment to support new Bootloaders.
You flash at your own risk, and if it creates problems with recoveries you are stuck until they can be fixed.
In summary; you should probably only flash a newer Bootloader if absolutely necessary, or face unwanted consequences.

Thanks for the heads up, I will not flash it unless necessary
Q- Do you think the non gpe variants will get an official update to 5.1 because then only it may be necessary in the future to upgrade the bootloader (like it was from 41.13 to 41.18 )

I expect all variants will get 5.1 (more probably 5.1.1) - the GPE 5.1 firmware is essentially what the Stock Motorola ROMs will be. Much of the work is already done.
It's a matter of opinion how necessary upgrading to v41.18 is. I run GPE 5.1 with the v41.13 Bootloader.

Maybe it will be necesary due to custom roms just like was been with the latest cyanogenmod and the Alberto's aosp.
The installer script refuses to be installed over the 41.13, and you need to upgrade it... or change the updater script

The band 12 enable and OTA disable methods here don't work. OTA enables itself again at boot and band 12 setting also resets itself at boot.

I have a stock TWRP backup of all partitions except data and cache, for the amazon prime variant 16gb, if you would like to add a link somewhere. - https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4SWkDc6OnebamY5MlhtaGg0blU

There is already one in the Rootjunky downloads folder on their site but thanks anyway. Also that section is intended for firmwares that are to be flash in stock recovery.

Original post on disabling OTA updated, should now survive reboot, and hide the update option in the settings.

Well it is hosted on a weird website, but this is the direct link that the phone OTA software (fota, which is known to be terrible) use (captured with Wireshark). It can easily be verified.
It seems the real manufacturer of the phone is "tinno" http://www.tinno.com/En/Profile/Index.html and lot of the internal apps / update files use mirrors on http://www.jstinno.com too.

Okay then.
Also does anybody happen to have/know where the OTA files for the non-prime version are?

I don't but I would love to see it to be able to compare both versions.
Do we know if someone tried to restore a non-prime nand backup over a prime version?

Anxiously waiting.... this will be my first Android ROM replacement.

Updated the original ad removal post with TWRP install files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67892852&postcount=567 link on the index still valid.
This updated method remove the need of wiping the data and will remove all ads, even the one currently displayed on the lock screen.
Root or exposed are not required (only TWRP obviously) so it won't affect the device security.
I created 2 scripts, one to clean everything, the other one leave the Underground app store in the system.
If you use it a lot, it's nice as it will update the apps automatically without the need of allowing unknown sources.
OTA are disabled by renaming the updater. Safer than the previous method (pm disable and pm hide), and safer than deleting if we need it later.

[ROM] Stock Nougat 7.x Moto Z (unlocked Versions)

I was thinking of contributing to our community for long time..
Thanks to @erfanoabdi for his helps and encouraging me to build this rom.
here is my first TWRP flashable rom for Moto Z based on Android Nougat on Moto Z (All Unlocked Versions) cooked with SuperR's Kitchen
Its a work in progress so dont expect too much ...
Download Link : Google Drive
After flashing it with TWRP you need to use adb sideload (TWRP -> Advanced -> ADB Sideload) and flash UPDATE-AnyKernel2.zip (will remove this step in next build)
ROOT : (OPTIONAL)
Use adb sideload (TWRP -> Advanced -> ADB Sideload) and flash superuser-r259.zip to get systemless Root access.
Reboot
Install phh's SuperUser From PlayStore if you rooted with superuser-r259
I tested it on my Moto Z XT1650-03 GRIFFIN RETMX 7.0 NPL25.86-15 and upgraded it to XT1650-03 GRIFFIN TELUS 7.0 NPL25.86-30
Moto Display and Moto Actions may not work, will look into it soon.

I'm not in this ROM right now.
Could you please give me some logs (logcat and dmesg)
And more details, is it force stops? Or just not working?
Thanks

Have not tested, But it should.

Sensors not working.

Dear host, if you have the version of EU retail 7.0, could you please give me the url to download?

Can anybody provide build.prop from original Nougat firmware?
Thanks

Sensors/Moto Actions aren't working for me either.
