Hey there,
I'm new here and really hope that people from this community would help me in my dilemma.
So I own a MTK6589 phone that runs JB 4.2. I've been waiting but it seems the manufacturer and others are not interested in making a 4.4 Kitkat ROM for my phone. So I tried to port a 4.4 ROM from other manufacturer's phone that has same specifications as mine and failed. After some reading I found out that you can't port a ROM if the OS installed in your phone is not same as the one you're porting, right?
So I want to ask if there's any way for me to get a 4.4.4 ROM in my phone which is running a 4.2 ROM?
Thanks
If the phone is rooted, you can flash CWM recovery or TWRP. And then try to flash this ROM.

My phone's rooted and I tried this ROM modified for a clone device as mine, but it stuck at boot logo. Is it really true that you can't port a 4.4.4 ROM if your device is running a lower android like 4.2?
You should be able to flash whatever ROM that was made for your device. There may be some stock firmware you could flash to it. Do you know if it is a fastboot supported phone?

And you said that CM11 Doesn't Work? If it was stuck at boot animation, go to CWM recovery and go to mounts and storage and wipe "/data" "/none" /cache" and then reboot. It worked for me.

Actually this ROM isn't made for device, its made for a device that has exact specs as mine but its from a different manufacturer. Yes is supports fastboot. And the new ROM is stuck at boot logo and not at boot animation. But I'll try what you suggested and post the results here. Thanks
What manufacture was your phone made by?

I think that is the right firmware for your device.

Yes I tried what you suggested but unfortunately it didn't work. Trying the firmware you posted. Do you know how could I find mount points in my phone with root explorer? I kind of mixed the ones that I already had.
Sorry, I don't know.

Quit posting in the development thread if you aren't posting a rom kernel or recovery!!!
This belongs in q&a!!!!!!
You can try Peter Alfonsos ROMs that he makes. They are all stock but all are buttery smooth. They aren't fully stock with the recovery so you have CWM or TWRP but they are stock nothing more nothing less.
Or you can flash a stock image from here if there is not jb:

I've tried this one but it seems to be not so stock....i will explain better: i was using this stock rom when android 4.1.2 started coming out...but after 10 day (with this stock rom) i didn't receive the ota...so i flash the stock ics and...I receive the OTA so i don't really trust this stock ROM
Every rom ive tried, it stucks into bootlogo. How can i solve it? Thanks in advance.
It happened to me too. The only solution is to revert to stock JB, reinstall custom recovery, re-root and install custom rom.
Many moto g users had this problem...

And, just for curiosity, how did you solve your bootloop problem without using the VolDown key?

Did you flash recovery in JB? I have your problem right now, and I have reflashed stock JB, updated to KK, re-rooted, installed CWM and... bootloops again . Can it be the problem? Should I flash recovery in JB directly? And which recovery should I flash in stock JB, CWM for 4.3 bootloader? Thanks in advance
Im having the same problem, after I installed GPe. Gonna try going back to JB.

I don't have an idea what is exactly the problem. Regardless if I'm on JB or KK, I always flash recovery using the moto tool application. In order to install any aosp rom, I must to be in JB stock.

Hey,
i own a german XT1032, updated to 4.4.2 the day i bought it.
I unlocked the bootloader, installed Philz Touch recovery ( CWM based) and rooted it.
But no matter which ROM i flash, it just stays at the bootanimation until i restore my backup.
I already tried different recoverys, including TWRP, different methods of wiping... all to no avail.
so... what am i missing ?
Any help would be appreciated.
After installing ROM try for clear the cache and data

No solution found yet.
Possibly hard brick,since you flashed a rom that uses ext4 filesystem on a device that uses f2fs.

I tried that with no luck.
Basically the issue is http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/recover-4-4-4-downgrade-brick-temporal-t2801946
And it seems that everyone who is trying to downgrade from 4.4.4 after a failed flash is experiencing it.
No resolution at the moment.

I would like someone to confirm, but from reading bits and pieces over XDA I think I understand how to root and install cm12.. So I'm on the updated stock lollipop. I understand that you can root with the one click program and install twrp through something like flashify. Once in recovery I need to flash the 20g bootstack and the JB bootloader, then I can proceed to flash cm12 and gapps...if that's right, someone please let me know.
