Moto G flashing custom roms - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted Moto G with stock rom, do I need to partition the phone storage with gparted or similar before I flash a rom such as carbon rom or omnirom etc, or is the partition already allocated in the freespace in the phone storage at the time of flashing? Thanks

No. Your phone already has the suited partitions and you can keep storage the way it is. Just make sure the custom rom you flash is suitable for XT1032.

Thanks, been a while since I flashed a custom rom, last one was to my old htc desire.

Backup your current ROM, try it yourself, if it doesnt work, restore the backup
Please dont start threads for such stupid things, read on the original thread for CM11 for xt1033

No internal memory won't get formatted. Only data and system partitions will be formatted. Its wise to take a backup but if you know what are you doing you don't have to take a backup.
If its your first time then take the backup into the pc for your own satisfaction but it's absolutely unnecessary. Anyway when once you will realise your backup is still there goes installing the rom. You will be more confident next time.
Hit thanks if helped

[XT1032] CM11 based roms stuck at bootlogo.

Hi guys,
I experience an issue with running CM11 based roms. They stuck at bootlogo...
Flash procedure as always:
- Wipe cache, dalvik, system
- Flash from sd
I am using philz newest version.
I have tried:
Pac Rom
Ethndroix
C-rom
Slim
Every rom behave the same: boot logo appears, looks really laggy, then became smooth and nothing happens... I have been waiting even for 30 min...
I am on stock 4.4.2 GB tesco SL rom, but SIM lock is disabled. Of course bootloader unlocked and phone rooted.
For now I don't have access to pc with adb...
It is really frustrating
I read somewhere that I should use EU rom before flashing, because GB ROMs have such issue... Can somebody confirm and explain this?
I don't understand why GB stock rom can make such trouble.... I am formating system partition and putting new rom there so GB rom is removed and CM11 installed instead...
Any thoughts?

If you do a full wipe and choose the 1032 rom it should be alright.

It is not a EU vs GB problem it is a 4.4 vs 4.3 problem as you can see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2720963
Try to downgrade to 4.3 and then install a custom ROM.

Many thanks for this hint!
Does anyone know why it is possible to install CM roms from 4.2 stock and it is not possible from 4.4.2?
Is on xda some explanation what exactly causes this?
Cheers.

Did you undo the BigPart process and go back to stock partition sizes?

The other option is to try to flash one of the bigPart boot images on top of the new rom and see if that works.
If it does, you would need to re-flash after every rom update, and might lose some ROM features if the kernel doesn't support them. It might be worth a shot.

[Q] Help : Phone stuck on Bootloader Unlocked screen after downgrade from 4.4.4 GPE

I tried downgrading my Moto G Xt1033 from GPE 4.4.4 to Motorola stock 4.4.2 and the phone is stuck at "Bootloader unlocked screen" need :crying:
Well I had the same problem just one day ago and it's a bit tough. The good thing is that you can fix and install a custom rom (I chose PA 4.42 btw) when you try. The bad thing is that you can't downgrade to 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 right now. But read for urself
I guess the reason is that the partition layout has changed with 4.4.4
I hope I did help you a little bit,

On Lollipop have some screen freezes, but touch and all features work fine.

I didn't flash other ROMs instead installed GPE, but it flashes other zips fine.
Maybe CM 12 must begin support GPE file system, if everyone have problems with it.
So does this work any better than TWRP ??

Is there TWRP for GPE? I only saw for the Motorola Edition.

It works for both, as long as the recovery is built with f2fs support, /cache and /system still use ext4 on xt1032.
