[Q] Possible to install CM ROM on Chinese 16GB model? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I were to obtain the white Chinese 16GB version, could I simply install the CM ROM as shipped with the 64GB black model?

Yes, there's information available is you search for it.

Yep just unlock the bootloader and flash it over. See timmaaa's guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471

Thank you very much.one more thing buddy, can you share any link for multirom patched AK kernel for cm 11s as I couldn't find any in specific thread. I would like to dual boot it with Lollipop ROM. Sorry to keep on bothering you
No problems, here you go:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B98G0KTJwnBFM09OTEZ2NnVfekE/edit?usp=docslist_api
You need an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery to flash firmware though. And this is only the firmware, not the full OS.
Can't help with the kernel though, sorry.

Hello, could I get a link as well?
I'm rooted with Custom Recovery, but I don't want to use fastboot as I'm having some adb driver funkiness.
So this way I can just flash 44S directly from the recovery after performing a Wipe..
I was happy on 1+1 44S and then immediately after OTA update to 05Q, keyboard because super laggy / touchscreen issues. Want to go back in a least painful way. All backed up now.
Thanks ahead of time!

[Q] XT1033 OTA lollipop upgrade failed... How to fix it?

Hi Guys,
I just received the XT1033 Lollipop notification and clicked upgrade.... Unfortunately the upgrade failed and I suspect perhaps that's because I have clockworkmod installed instead of the stock recovery?
Where do I go from here? How do I get my phone so the upgrade installs successfully?
I'm in New Zealand if that matters. Not sure if you get a different OTA update per country?
Also note, the phone is still working fine (ie not bricked or anything), just the upgrade is failing to install
Flash a stock ROM or gpe and upgrade from there.
Sent from my XT1039 using XDA Free mobile app
Which ROM, does it matter?
I keep seeing stock roms for Brazil/India/Asia, but I live in NZ so I'm not sure what to install. There doesn't seem to be any NZ roms
Plus none of the links in "how to restore to stock" tutorials and faq's seem to work anymore
Can you point me in the right direction please?
You can still install official lollipop if your phone has bootloader unlocked and custom recovery but I would suggest starting from scratch. If you bought phone from anywhere in Asia then flash stock asian KitKat ROM and if you bought it from Brazil then flash stock Brazilian KitKat rom. After that you can update your phone to official lollipop.
PS- there is no NZ ROMs for xt1033. Only Asian and Brazilian. It depends on the region from where you buy the phone, not where you live.
I bought it in NZ...
Aha! I found in the phone settings it says 210.12.40.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03
Asia rom it is then, I'll go try it out

You should not need to unlock bootloader to flash the fastboot firmware image.

Flash 5.0.2 firmware.no need to revert to 4.4.4 or use ota since lollipop flashable imge now available for xt1033 asia retail.

Upgrading XT1032 bootloader

Hi all,
I just tried to upgrade my old CyanogenMod from January to a recent nightly and got hit by an error caused by my old KK bootloader (http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...uently-questions-t2996087/page24#post59520890). The guy in that thread offers a supposedly official Brazilian Lollipop bootloader, but I'm a bit hesitant 1) downloading something like that from unknown origin on the net and 2) I have a UK XT1032 (I think it was unbranded, bought in Tesco), not Brazilian. So what are my options?
Can I get the official bootloader from Motorola, by downgrading to 4.4.4 and then get the OTA? Or is it not available yet for my phone?
If I were to do that, can I unlock/root the phone again and get a custom ROM or is there no unlock yet for the Moto stock LP stuff?
What are my options, besides staying on my January CM ROM?
Thank you very much for any input!
You could manually flash the GB 4.4.4 stock ROM for the xt1032, update apps, take the 5.02 OTA update, and be running a Lollipop bootloader.
I just flash manually stock 5.0.2

Which version do you recommend for the xt1032?
Or, if you're skilled enough, just manually fastboot flash the tz, rpm, sdi, aboot and sbl1 partitions extracted from any 5.0.x OTA package for XT1032. I did the procedure on my 1031 (with corresponding files for the 1031, of course) and it worked nicely.

That sounds like a good plan. So
1) GB 5.02 OTA is already out for all XT1032 devices? I read somewhere else we're still waiting?
2) Is my phone still unlocked after this, i.e. can I install a custom recovery, root etc. and custom roms afterwards?
Thanks =)
The 5.02 OTA for GB ROM has been released from what I have read.
Once the phone is sim and bootloader unlocked, flashing ROMs, recoveries, etc. will not relock the bootloader or sim lock the phone.

That's great to know! My worries was about that flashing the bootloader could result in a newly locked one. Thank you very much!

How to update an Verizon one M8

Hi all
I have a verizon one m8 which runs stock 4.4.2 it is rooted, s-offed by sunshine and has TWRP recovery.
The LTE bands are open but when there is an available LTE network there are some network problems and many disconnections occur. (mainly when entering the LTE area)
I tried some various fixes but nothing worked so I want to update to a customized lollipop firmware.
I did search a -lot but didn't find what are the steps to update.
Can anyone guide or direct me please?
Huge Thanks
Parnuk
If you are just looking to update the firmware here is a link for you. If I were you I would consider a newer ROM to go along with the new firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159
thanks!
Some more questions please :
Can my current Rom run with this newer firmware?
Will it still be rooted?
What are the chances to get bricked
To get a newer Rom, should I wipe and then install it from twrp after the firmware update?
last one: this all has nothing to do with the recovery, right?
Sorry for the nooobity, it's all so different comparing to my old SGS

Also, hit the link in my signature for more details.
Great, the latest twrp didn't work on my current firmware.
I have an older one, can I update it after the rom?

You can but the chances of something going wrong are higher. Flash TWRP with fastboot, then firmware with fastboot, then ROM with TWRP is your best bet.

XT1039 and Lollipop OTA update problems with wrong bootloader

Hi guys,
several months ago, when Motorola released Lollipop for my rooted XT1039, i tried to update via OTA, but the device got stuck in a bootloop, showing a message that i found out after searching, means that i have the wrong bootloader(I´m using CWM Touch 6.0.5.0)
So my question is, what is the best and safest way to get Lollipop working on my phone.
Should i flash the stock XT1039 version of Lollipop or can i use the Motoflasher to flash the correct bootloader and update?
Thanks in advance
Just flash the original recovery from your device, as you cant update via OTA from a custom one
Ok, thank you.
What I've seen ist the MotoFlasher the best choice, as it has the new Moto G Recovery, should i use this program?

If you change you bootloader to the latest version and after that upgrade to lollipop officially your device will be HARDBRICKED! Search on google the download of the recovery of your phone and android version, afther that flash whit adb and fastboot
