There is a 4.4.3 stock firmware image of US Global GSM Moto G. use that
https://mega.co.nz/#!UAxXTDbI!zRN0NKmH-klXBOu-10USPiBU7fJf9I7ESHFZdzFxrew
then flash custom recovery and root. reboot into the custom recovery and make a backup of the rom (system, data, boot)
and there you go. you have a flashbable stock rom

My MotoG's bootloader unlocked, CWM installed & rooted. Is that the link of flashable zip?

No, you need to use fastboot mode to install stock firmware. it will wipe everything from the device. then you can install custom recovery and root. then back it up in the recovery. that is the only way.

yes you can revert back, because I have done it many times.
if your bootloader is updated to the latest version, you can still go back to 4.4.2 even if the bootloader is from 4.4.4.
you just have to skip this step
Code:
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

Are u sure abt that?
Many people out there, they have half-brick devices cause they try do down grade from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 GPE.
People say that the fastboot doesnt work and the partition is different
if u are sure, u can make a clean thread, and help many people survive :highfive::highfive::highfive:

Of course I am sure. I done this myself. I am back to Moto stock firmware. I tried GPE but HDR mode was missing in the camera app.
and no Audio Effects (DSP Manager). But it is possible to go back to 4.4.2 from 4.4.4 but you have to skip the motoboot image file. that is the bootloader. you cant downgrade the bootloader.

I have XT1032 and you can go back to stock 4.4.2 for XT1033, because XT1033 has 4.4.4 update as well.
Why are you running GPE for XT1033 in the first place?
I have converted from GPE to Stock Motorola firmware and had no issues with partition. so obviously you are doing something wrong.

Hi, I have a xt1032, UL and rooted, stock rom and kernel, Xposed with TWRP. The ota just hit my phone this afternoon and I have been trying in vain for hours to update it because I need the bug fixes badly. I am trying to find the OTA.zip file....either that or the stock recovery.img file. Thank you in advance!

I flashed the stock recovery and also uninstalled xposed framework..still got an error message and update failed. I didn't delete any system apps but has some frozen thru TB. now defrosted and trying again. I'm on the T-mobile network (I thought it was cdma but I guess it's GSM) should my kernel be the174.44.1.falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.us? because I noticed it no longer has the 'AWS' part..if anyone could offer some insight on that
So you didnt sucsess to install ota ? Why dont you flash stock rom maybe you have some errors in system and then update.My version is like u wrote (it was before update) xt1034 quote me if u done with flashing and get ota search on forum stock rom images im on phone cant find link right now .

No, no success for me yet- there are links up now in other posts for the xt1034 my friend. I think at one point I flashed the wrong firmware by mistake, cuz I definitely have a xt1032 and the version should show 174.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US but this pic has the AWS version for the xt1034 that is not right for the xt1032
Dude you dont know wich version u have remove back cover and see on battery then install US retail rom im post link in last reply.pm if something goes wrong im not at home right now .

[New Method] [Official Build] Downgrade to 4.4.2 GPE from 4.4.4. Via Fastboot!!

Right guys firstly i would like to make a massive shoutout to @fl4m3y
Brilliant work on your efforts for the community!!
Without his guide found HERE i would never have been able to leave any 4.4.4 custom rom!
Thankyou friend.
Disclaimer
I am not 100% this will work for you. Use at YOUR OWN RISK.
I will not be held responsible for anyone saying, "omg, my phone had a chance of coming back to life, now your guide has killed it off"
Because that wasn't and isn't the case for me. It has worked 100% STOCK flash by FASTBOOT
95% of this is @fl4m3y credits all thanks go to this guy. Nor will @fl4m3y be blamed as he has stated in his thread. .​Right i will tell you what i did.. everything i did, dont do anything i didnt do. or it probley wont work. same goes for skipping things out.
Firstly
I need you to follow this Guide.
Troubleshooting: (These are some errors i came across, managed to fix them these ways)
The CWM Backup won't push to /sdcard
This happened to me, i don't know why but i managed to fix this by going into 'Mounts and Storage and Mounting STORAGE'
it was unmounted for some reason. Double check this..
It wont start restoring i get MD5 sumcheck failed error.
You need to go into Advance settings in Backup and Restore and uncheck 'check md5sum' (Not sure what it was called just look for something to do with md5sum and make sure there isnt a x next to it)
I Get a Error Resoring /data or /system
go into Backup and Restore and select to do a Custom Restore. Now just as if you where fastboot flashing something, restore each of them speratly..
i started from the top. (Boot.img i think it was then selected to restore and them moved down the list)
now there should be 3 parts to all of them. i went through every single one just to make sure it went well.
so in system there was 3 diffrent files relating to system .. restore them all then move on..
Once you have followed this and your phone has rebooted Sucsessfully you need to download this Official 4.2.2 GPE Fastboot Firmware
Now this is a OFFICIALLY SIGNED FASTBOOT FIRMWARE.. i think thats why it has worked.
The Thread is HERE if you want to look where i found it
Now you need the fastboot files. If you dont have the here they are
I would download them anyways just to make sure its followed exactly how i did it.
I downloaded everything to my Desktop and extracted to my desktop. it makes it easy for me to organise.
Now put your phone into bootloader
Heres for the next part. Extract the Fastboot files into the folder with the Firmware files. There is a .bat file inside that autoflashes everything
Do not press it! We dont need all the files flashed!
Ok so i need you to go to the folder with the firmware in and: Press and hold Right Shift and right click on the file and select to open cmd window here.
Now Type: Fastboot Devices
this is just checking everything is working.
Copy each of these and paste them into your cmd window
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
Your phone should Reboot with 100% STOCK GPE.
i am going to try fastboot flash over this a UK Retail Firmware and see what happens.. i will report back if we can now sucsefully flash firmwares other then this one.
@gd91
Confirmed working
Nop its not working for me...I am stuck at google logo...but my moto is xt1033 maybe that is why its not working? ;P
Oh, maybe does everything flash okay?
Sent from my Moto G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah everything flashed okay except those warnings that are allways there...restoring backup went well too thx to your guide on how to avoid those mount problems
Guys, can i use this guide to downgrade from GPE 4.4.4 to GPE 4.4.2 and then to stock 4.4.2 ?
No. You will have to wait for 4.4.4 stock partition. And boot loader. Its being pushed out now or soon.. Then you can flash over GPE to stock. This only putbstock GPE back on my phone

People keep saying this, but nobody explains the rationality behind it.
2 things:
1) How does having the 4.4.4 GPE files help in any way with downgrading? If I downgrade, I'd want to downgrade all components, including the bootloader, no? Are you thinking that it is impossible to downgrade the GPT and bootloader after they have been upgraded, even if your bootloader is unlocked, so you would flash the 4.4.4 versions of those but the system partition and modem/baseband from whatever version you want to downgrade to?
2) Even if what you are saying is true, that you would need the 4.4.4 GPT and bootloader in order to perform a successful downgrade to an earlier version, the fact is that the gpt and motoboot files are already available today, extractable from the OTA zip that has been making the rounds. They have already been extracted by others and posted elsewhere. So what more do you need/want out of the 4.4.4 fastboot-flashable release?
-- Nathan
You have miss understood.. We can downgrade to 4.4.2 GPE ( i don't think It was shipped with Jelly Bean) its a dodle
Although!
People who dont want to be on GPE 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 or 4.4.4, and want to go back to the Motorola Stock 4.4.2 will have to wait for the 4.4.4 Stock Motorola update to come to their region ATM it is only hitting certain areas for the time being..

Flash GPE 4.4.4 then flash over that the morotorola stock 4.4.4

Ah, okay, yes, I guess I did partially misunderstand. But I have been seeing people talk about the problems they have been having downgrading even to 4.4.2 GPE from 4.4.4 GPE. I see that people have stumbled across various convoluted workarounds, but for some reason it is not just as easy as reflashing all of the necessary files while in fastboot. I suspect that the fact that this doesn't work even when trying to go back to 4.4.2 GPE is related to the problems people are having when trying to return to 4.4.2 Motorola.

Well, then I still don't understand. If you are running 4.4.4 GPE, why do you have to first flash to 4.4.4 Motorola before downgrading to 4.4.2 Motorola? If you can't go directly to 4.4.2 Motorola from 4.4.4 GPE, what makes you think that having access to 4.4.4 Motorola would make this procedure work? I guess that's the part that is missing for me. Nobody is explaining why they believe that having access to 4.4.4 Motorola will assist in a downgrade to older versions of stock Motorola.

-- Nathan
GPE and Motorola have totally different file systems.. I dunno.. Its all confusing I haven't really been told myself but just buy reading what others have said and what has worked for me, I cannot flash 4.4.2 over my GPE 4.4.2 that has been brick recovered I need the 4.4.4 boot and gpt.. I think when you convert to 4.4.4 there are files and partitions you cannot flash over unless you have the whole thing. I think the big issue isnt partitions it's the bootloader, I cannot flash any other but 4.4.4 I don't know why eve after flashing 4.4.4 gpt.bin

You will have trouble. An OTA update needs an untouched system partition, that means no root or deleted files, unroot isn't enough... So I reccomend you to convert back to stock firmware or convert again to gpe but then, dont root or change recovery.. Just wait...

If you also have stock recovery, you won't have any problem. Heard that you can receive the OTA using any other recovery without touching system files, but if you are not going to change anything, nor flashing another rom until lollipop's arrive, I recommend you flashing stock recovery

[Q] How to downgrade Moto G (XT1033) from Lollipop to Kitkat

Hey guys,
I recently updated my Moto G dual sim version to lollipop with OTA update. As it has Wifi issues and looks half cooked I want to revert back to Kitkat without unlocking bootloader. Is it possible? If yes please share the flashable zip for stock recovery. I have searched all over the forum but all I get is the procedure for rooted or bootloader unlocked phones.
Thanks in advance.

Currently there is no custom recovery for XT1033 on lollipop nor are there any signed flash able zips. Just download the Asian 4.4.4 firmware and while flashing it using mfastboot, skip the gpt.bin and motoboot.img .
This process you mentioned does not require unlocking bootloader??

Here, this thread will guide you. It works perfectly. I have tried it my self.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/how-to-revert-5-0-1-gpe-to-4-4-4-5-0-5-t2988565
It's not possible to downgrade the OS with a locked bootloader. If you're having problems you can try doing a factory reset and see if that fixes your issues. Remember that if you do a factory reset, make sure you backup your data as it will most likely be deleted. If you do decide to unlock your bootloader make a backup because your phone will be wiped clean; required for bootloader unlock. Downgrading from Lollipop to Kitkat will have one minor annoyance; screen rippling up the screen. You can fix that by turning the screen off and on to remedy the problem. AND most importantly don't flash the kitkat bootloader as it will brick your phone. Good luck on what you decide on doing!

CM 13 Downgrade to Stock

I wanna Downgrade back to Stock 5.1 but my question is, do I have any problems with bootloader, flickering or OTA's if I downgrade from 6.0.1 CM13 to 5.1 Pure Stock?
And should I think about something before I downgrade?

You can do it through MFastboot method, and you won't have any problem at all. Just download right version for your region and you're done.

I got a flashable zip?
can i flash it or do i need to use the mfastboot method?
It will be fine with that flashable ZIP... it's just like another ROM. I told you MFastboot method because that way you're making sure that everything is stock and not Modified.

Is a factory reset/ all wipe not enough to flash it normaly?
or why mfastboot?
Well, If you want everything Stock then you must do it through MFastboot method. with the ZIP that you have it will be a stock ROM; but your Recovery and Bootlogo still are modded (Recovery will be CWM or TWRP, and your bootlogo stays the same you have right now, not the warning you get when you unlock the Bootloader)
Edit: both ways to do it are fine... Just different results at the end.

So what are the results if I only flash it instead of mfastboot?
Flash Zip: Stock ROM, modified recovery, and if in the past you flashed a bootlogo it will stay the same. (If in the future you want to flash again CM or any other ROM this is the best)
Mfastboot: Stock ROM, stock recovery, and stock bootlogo (the one with the warning of unlocked bootloader) (if in the future you want to flash again CM or other ROM you'll have to flash the recovery first and then flash your ROM)

Okay thx for the Info
But my phone will not get bricked or flickering because of bootloader?
I know it gets bricked if I go from MM to KK.
It won't... Flicker happens because some kernel implementations changed from KitKat to Lollipop. And the bricked devices were because people tried to flash KitKat bootloader (motoboot.bin) and partition table (gpt.bin or something like that) on top of Lollipop.
But as our Moto G 1st gen didn't get past Official Lollipop there isn't a new bootloader version released. And CM13 is implemented over the same Lollipop bootloader. So don't worry about bricking your device if you wanna downgrade to Stock Lollipop.
