Try booting to bootloader and flash TWRP. Wipe system and data partitions (I'd recommend wiping the internal storage too), cache and dalvik cache. Reboot to bootloader, and try flashing stock from there. Tell me if this works.

Tried that didn't worked it says something like bootloader security downgrade then it says failed

Maybe the bootloader is updated with the OTA update that's why it isn't flashing

you will need to restore stock kernel and recovery if you want to flash stock firmware.

I did that but then I wasn't getting OTA the latest OTA update

I flashed stock from a custom ROM, without restoring stock kernel and recovery. Worked fine for me.

Oh! Can you try downgrading to MM and following the official OTA to N? I did that and it worked for me. I was using a custom ROM, with quark kernel, and all i had to do is wipe everything, and I could flash MM. I then got the system update. I installed the update and there were no problems.

I haven't tried locking the bootloader, so I cannot help with that. Sorry! You said you were on Nougat before downgrading to MM? Did you flash gpt and bootloader files? Could you downgrade your bootloader too?

I was just curious because the custom ROM I was talking about was built on CM 14.1, and I didn't flash the soak test before flashing the custom ROM. I could flash the MM stock firmware, including the bootloader, without problems. I was curious as to whether the custom ROM upgraded the bootloader or not. I guess it did not. Anyway, after the system update, I think my bootloader has been upgraded.

Way past that now. I've updated using the system update, so my bootloader is also upgraded. I've already taken a backup of stock nougat immediately after the update, so I won't be needing the MM stock anymore.

There is a stock nougat firmware which can be flashed by fastboot but after the latest update you can't relock your bootloader you have to wait for the latest firmware which is flashable through fastboot

you need to make clean install for this . it will surely work .
or you have to flash stock bootloader if havent made changes to system

AFAIK, the stock fastboot flashable firmware file available here has a bootloader that can be locked.

[OTA] XT1032 4.4.4 Retail US

here we go
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40676435/Blur_Version.210.12.32.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US.zip
4.4.4
Moto G (gen 1) (Consumer Cellular) just updated 4.4.4
Thanks pal, changelog?
I just got the update. I think Motorola is getting ready to update their Moto devices to Lollipop.
Im on CWM
Is it weird that I got the notification for the 4.4.4 update even though I use CWM instead of the stock recovery?
When I got the 4.4.3 update, I installed it via the OTA and didn't change from CWM to stock recovery. Nothing seemed wrong. But from what I understood you shouldn't be able to get OTA updates if you have a custom recovery?
I'm on Philz recovery. Unfortunately can't install the OTA. While installing error appears saying that there is a problem with verification Exchange2.apk...
Does this work with cwm? I tried with twrp but no luck and for some reason I can't fastboot stock recovery
Only stock recovery and untouched /system partition
So not for me

I've got Philz Recovery and I can update with the update zip.
My system partition was unmodified (The Exchange error like it happens to Legomina was caused by a system modification).
Have a rooted device with xposed. OTA does not apply either with stock recovery or philz. Does anyone have a full SBF instead (I hate OTAs anyway, they never quite work for me)?
When the full firmware image is available, it will be announced here:

Thanks for this! Updated using this. My falcon was rooted using Superboot. So the recovery was stock. I was using xposed modules. I followed these steps:
1. Downloaded the file in OP
2. Copied it to sdcard
3. Booted to recovery
4. Selected install update from sdcard and then selected the update zip
5. Done! :good:
It took around 5 minutes for all this process. Thanks a lot @tony_evl :highfive:

CM11/CM12 Firmware Repository

Hello
Given that no one has put this up anywhere legible for the whole community to have access to here it is.
If you are upgrading to CM12, you are required to upgrade your phones firmware. Most new ROMs will check for this firmware upgrade.
This can be found here
If you are downgrading to CM11 or CM11S basad ROMs they REQUIRE a downgrade or you will experience all sorts of issues.
This can be found here
Make sure you use your favorite custom recovery to flash these
Cheers

How to install?
Could you please tell how to proceed? Do I flash the firmware over the installed ROM and then do all the wipes and last flash the new ROM?

The simplest thing to do is to just download the latest CM12 nightly, flash it, wipe the phone(not internal storage)... And then install the LP ROM of your choice
Sorry, I forgot to say that I want to downgrade to CM11S or CM11.

That isn't the simplest solution, the simplest solution is to just flash the firmware zips that are available. Flashing the whole CM12 ROM is kinda like buying a new car because you ran out of fuel, instead of just buying the fuel.

If you want to downgrade to CM11 or CM11s I'm rather sure you don't need any, because they come with the firmware. If you want to install a custom ROM than you probably need to flash the firmware extra before you flash the ROM.

I'm not sure I understand - if I'm on stock CM11S, can I not just flash the most recent CM12 nightlies? I have to update the firmware first?

The CM12 nightlies contain the firmware so there's no need to flash it if you're flashing CM12. If you're flashing another Lollipop ROM you do need to flash it though.

The CM12 firmware link posted in the OP is not the latest one...request OP to update accordingly.

Just a doubt, as you said we need to install modem and firmware before downgrading to CM11s,
I just want to know that in what sequence do we install firmware, modem and cm11 and when and
what do we need to wipe in recovery.
One more question do we need to unlock the bootloader and root once again.

Boot into TWRP, full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache), flash firmware and modem, reboot back to recovery, flash CM11, reboot into ROM. You don't need to unlock your bootloader, that remains unlocked unless you specifically lock it again via fastboot. Each time you flash a new ROM you need to flash SuperSU again to get root, unless the ROM is pre-rooted.

g900az bootloop

I've spent a week trying to upgrade to lollipop. Finally got it done today and hated it. Tried to downgrade back to 4.4.2 but didn't work.
I'm currently sitting on the samsung colored screen that bootloops. I get beyond the white boot screen. I have twrp 2.8.5.0 installed and working fine. I tried to nandroid restore a 4.4.2 but thats what put me in this bootloop. Any suggestions?
Yes
Update your Bootloader, So you can go to Recovery and Wipe Everything except the External Storage, and try flashing the rom.

NO, a nandroid backup does NOT contain bootloader or modem. They must be flashed separately, see the thread below for download links, flash in odin

wow thank you, didnt know that.
ok so it appears g900az bootloader can't be found on the internet that i see. can i extract it from a stock rom and flash it on its own? i'm thinking that i cannot go down to 4.4.2 from 5.0 on the stock rom.

wait, in TWRP you can include bootloader and modem. I always do this. After using this nandroid to restore, it does not seem to restore the bootloader as I still have the 5.0 bootloader.

Modem yes bootloader no. When you see the option to backup "boot" in TWRP that is the boot.img which is NOT the bootloader.

Are you sure I can just flash overy the stock lollipop romantic because I have to try downgrade back to kitkat and it's been trial and error
I have successfully downgraded from 5.1.1 to 5.0
I seem to remember reading once you go to 5.0 you can not downgrade to 4.4.2. Not 100% sure though.

Yes, you can downgrade to 4.4.2, you only have to downgrade your bootloader to use an 4.4.2 android version.
If you are already using an 5.0 Bootloader version, when you try to flash an 4.4.2 android version you get into a LOOP - BOOTLOOP.

I'm confused by your reply so please clarify. You say you can downgrade your bootloader to 4.4.2 but then your next sentence says if you are using 5.0 bootloader and flash 4.4.2 you get a boot loop. That is my experience also, are we having a translation issue here?

Because from what i researched, the G900AZ came already with an 5.0 Bootloader. Dunno if i got that wrong, but i understood that.

ok that makes sense. my g900az shipped with 4.4.2 a long time ago. i just now started to upgrade it, but didnt realize xposed only worked on 5.1 not 5.0, so it took me awhile to find a 5.1 rom that was good enough. i like stock odex'd roms with xposed. thats hard to find, and custom roms are just too custom for me.

Software Status Still Modified after Installing Stock Rom

Hi guys
I unlocked bootloader and rooted the system in moto x play xt1562. On bootloader screen, it says Software status: Modified. But after flashing stock rom, it remains Modified. Any chance restore it to Official?
Which stick ROM did you flash? Did your flash include the recovery?

If the ROM is official and unmodified it should be fine. AFAIK there is only a soak test version of 6.0 available. I'm not sure if it contains recovery, if yes if you flashed it and if the version has status unmodified. Maybe someone else who uses 6.0 knows.
You have to change the flag back using something like Bootunlocker to get it to show again. Or is that just the tamper flag?

Bootloader unlocked should not affect this software state. Afaik it makes no sense to relock bootloader at all, except maybe if you lend your device to someone you do not trust.

Those are increments.. they can only be flashed through stock or "zcx twrp" which does not exist for our device

You have to download the full ROM to update.

I'm on Miui 8.1 Global version rooted, Unlocked Bootloader ,
can I flash Developers rom through TWRP? Without clean flash? Or Does it require clean flash for flashing developers rom on rooted / unlocked bootloader devices,
If I can dirty flash miui global to miui developers through TWRP, will my data gets deleted or wiped ?

No need. Download fastboot rom. Unzip that zip (tgz) file. Go to fastboot mode. Click on flash all except storage. Nothing will get erased. That's better than installing through TWRP

If you're planning to flash incremental OTAs, you should flash the stock recovery. It's easier that way as it takes less data and eases the OTA update process but at the same time you'd end up switching recoveries if you need to flash other custom ROMs
