[Q] Proper Model Number ID ? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I am new to the Moto G and I would like your help on how to properly identify which model number I have, so I will not get into hot water when I start flashing ROMs and kernels. Maybe someone can reply to this post with a list that would help others in my situation? I have a Boost version which has been flashed to PagePlus. The actual box says this:
SKU: MOT1031ABB so, would this equate to XT1031? Also, when I connect to my PC, the media device shows up as XT1028. Thank you for the help! I look forward to getting to know this community.

moto g xt 1031 update error

hello guys,
i have purchased 2 moto g's from flipkart and other is of reliance communications(r-com e-shop INDIA).
i am facing problem on the update one.
it's the cdma one from r-com e-shop INDIA.
model no-xt1031.
variant-8GB
i ordered the phone from r-com e-shop,
when i received the phone i noticed that the phone was from us and it was rooted with boot loader unlocked.
the phone is non sim based.
the phone was from boost mobile.
i went to reliance showroom for activation,
and there they created a mess from which i am irritated till now.
they took 2 days to activate my phone, which could be done in couple of minutes.
they gave me a reason saying they are not getting some 4 digit pin to activate.
the second day after receiving it i again went and sat there for 2 to 3 hrs doing nothing just seeing their st***d faces.
i was again irritated. then finally they activated and gave me.
that was the story of my moto g cdma one.
now the problem i am facing is to update that one.
the phone pops up a message it has got an update,
when i try to download it it downloads but it won't install.
it shows an error saying that the update could not be validated please try again.
could someone help me out in fixing the issue please.
thanks and regards

Then You can proceed as usual

Hi The Warranty won't break
Yes the data will be erased. Please back up your data
The network coverage will be the same as the original rom, after all both are stock
You'll need to have the boost modem part

[Completed] would appreciate your directing me where to go to get the best general info on my 1st

1sr generation moto g -- Updates, rooting, the usual questions. I'm new and trying to learn. It's a prepaid Verizon model XT1028. Any suggestions on storage issues would be appreciated. Also the benefits of rooting if any, and I have installed 4.4.4 KitKat, should I want to upgrade to 5.0 Lollipop or stay with this for now? THANK YOU!!

[Completed] Lost IMEI

Ok so my phones dialer app went bonkers (crash errors every second) so I decided to root the phone install a custom ROM (cyanogenmod) so I did not have to use the faulty stock app. Now the phone runs smoothly without app crash errors. But the problem I have now is the phones identity information disappeared. So I have a blank unkown IMEI number, even after dialing *#06# it still appears blank. I did not backup the phone before doing the custom rom flash (dumb me) so I cant repair its EFS backup. But I did write down the IMEI number on paper a while ago which I found... Anyway I can imput the info back??

product: HTC One m7_ul
I need to unlock the phone from carrier, but the IMEI is gone when updated custom ROM.
Verify that what you flashed was for your specific model of M7, there are many models of M7 and they don't all use the same stuff.
If what you have is not for your specific model then you'll have to find a ROM or stock firmware that is for your exact model.
Try looking through the forum linked below and see if you find something that applies to you, you can post your issue there and see what the users that have your device have to say, they know the details of your device better than I do.

[Completed] I want to buy an LG G4(VS986) on ebay. I live in India. I have some queries....

I just saw an LG G4 (VS986) on ebay. I live in India. The carrier is verizon, the VS986 is an US model. It is written that hotspot won't work. Also there is mentioned that verizon logo will come up during booting. My queries are:
1) Why hotspot won't work? Will I be unable to access WiFi also?
2) Why will verizon logo come up during booting? Is it common or the phone is rooted?
3) Will I also face problems regarding upgrading the phone to marshmallow?
That's all... I know these are too many questions but please help....
