I dont understand. I am right now on DIRTY UNICORNS 7.1.2, before that i was on 6.x.x (stock marshmallow), before i upgraded to DU i made a nandroid backup in case of problems. But DU have a very short battery life, so i want MM back.... But i heard thats imposible, becouse it will brick my phone to downgrade the vercion.. Please tell me what to do!! Thanks

Any 7+ custom has nothing from stock Nougat. You are safe.
After restore - you need also stock recovery if you want update to nougat.
For stock remember:
OTA update is only for full stock firmware.
Downgrade(7-6) is possible without bootloader and gpt.
After downgrade any ota update can end with hard brick.

[BACKUP][INDIAN FIRMWARE][TWRP]Lollipop 5.1 SOAK TEST

Android Lollipop 5.1 SOAK TEST TWRP BACKUP​It's done, here we go. and before you start, remember to update your TWRP to the latest version.
Okay guys, as promised, here is the complete 5.1 cleaned up BACKUP...
Instructions:
1. Download it.
2. Extract it.
3. Move to your Internal Storage or External.
4. Restore it.​
For Brazilian or Argentina users, go to bootloader a.k.a fastboot and flash this, will fix the SIM problem.​If any india user is having problem with SIM, here is the india baseband.​
Sorry by the poor OP, but i was in hurry ​
Just to warn, THIS WILL NOT WORK WITH CWM!!!!​If the backup isn't showing on the list do this, go to the extracted zip, put your serial number on the third folder of the backup (TWRP/BACKUP/<yourserialnumber>/2015-06-16--09-03-35_LPC23.13-34/) how do i know my serial number? go to about phone or in bootloader and get your serial number...​Works fine on XT1021 (thanks to @Carlos Arriaga) and XT1022.​Credits for the OTA: Saurabh Sinha​
And if you want to remove all the bloatware from the 5.1 stock, here is the solution, just flash this (all bloatware script thanks to @Carlos Arriaga)
Here is the link!
1. Download it.
2. Move to your internal or external
3. Flash it like a normal flashable zip.​
jonaaa said:
Okay, listen up! i'm uploading on Drive my cleaned 5.1 backup... it will take some hours, it should fix these '7MB update' problems and for brazilian and argentina users, i have some basebands that should work with you too... for indian users, should work... keep that in mind that my Moto E is XT1022 and i don't know if this will work on XT1021... so, please, wait...

MM update brick my phone

I update my phone, but now its stuck on a bootloop, i live in chile now, so i cant send my phone to customer service, i have any option to have the stock firmware and install it?...
Pd: i have the bootloader lock, and i dont have debbuging mode active
Please help me.
Thanks :crying:
Have you tried removing the micro SD then rebooting. That fixed the bootloop for me.
the firmware is corrupted i only can enter to fastboot and recovery mode...
It's unlikely for an OTA to brick a phone. If you flashed any MM ROM, then you should have bootloader already unlocked.
In any case, you can try the MM image from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/help/howto-enable-band-12-moto-pure-mm-ota-t3267057
You can then boot into recovery and try to sideload the image via "adb sideload name-of-file.zip" to see if that fixes it.

Actually I believe Moto has a weird naming convention where they name the OTA zip based on the old firmware version, not the new one. There is only one OTA for the Pure and this one should bring you up to the release MM.

Hmm, should be the right one. But the OTA is a patch, meaning you have to have a working stock firmware to update properly. If your firmware is indeed corrupted somehow, the OTA probably won't work correctly -- and like you said there is no official full signed firmware from Moto
If you are bootloader unlocked, you may want to consider flashing one of the MM pre-built ROMs, but if not, you may be screwed for now unless there is a way to fix your firmware (are you able to do a factory reset from the recovery menu?)
i already do the factory reset... the security in this phone its good, but i fail with something the smathphone almost die... i dont lose the hope yet
thanks for everything

From Custom Rom to Flyme Official?

Hey guys,
so just in case I would sell my phone in future .. I would know how to get back to full official Flyme Rom with locked bootloader and meizu stock recovery. In the cm12.1 thread is one tutorial in the headpost but I've read the comments in the thread and now I do not know what is right and what is wrong to get back official Flyme Rom. Please, can someone tell me how I get this done, PLEASE
You have to flash patched recovery flyme, and then flash original flyme rom by normal way( recovery mode or choosing the rom with a file explorer)
Enviado desde mi MX4 mediante Tapatalk
And that is the safest way?
As i know, is the only way, if we are talking about andriod mx4. I did it and no problems.
The safest way to flash patched rechovery is via fastboot.
Enviado desde mi MX4 mediante Tapatalk
move offical rom to root direc. and flash patced recovery. turn off phone. press volume up + power button. select update and clean data.
OK thanks guys

Wait you can brick your phone. Some people have tested it:
- Back to Flyme 4.2.8.2 patched
- Reflash Flyme 4.2.8.2 official
- Full Re-Lock
IF YOU FLASH ANOTHER FLYME (NOT 4.2.8.2) OFFICIAL IS FULL BRICK.

Ok, first flash patched recovery, then 4.2.8.2 ( I or A?) and then I can flash any official Rom without brick?

Dear friends,
You all say that the first step should be flashing the custom recovery, but how? With flashify?
Thanks.

Thanks so much! Is it safer than flashing with flashify?
After I do it, and after I go back to the official 4.2.8.2, can I update it normally to 4.5.7i, or even to flyme 5 when it comes out, or will I risk brick?
Thanks again.

Thanks for sharing from your experience! Did you flashed the flyme 5 normally, the standard way, by just putting it on root and openning? Where did you get it? So many different versions. How do you like it?

"Flyme 4.2.8.2 patched" - You say that I must flash patched Flyme 4.2.8.2 or flash a stock Flyme 4.2.8.2i by patched recovery and than by stock?? On this I can install Flyme 4.5.7 and update it with OTA?

U can try to flash the original recovery form the official firmware.. If still you suffer the bootloop you have to completely flash the original stock rom
Try to backup your data from your current recovery if possible

Hi,
if you want the small ota (for flashing with stock recovery) better try a vpn (like opera vpn), select germany or canada and do the update
I know, but I preffer the OTA link, never used VPN.
