I need to flash my Moto G (currently on rooted stock 4.4.4) to stock 4.4.2 in order to solve some issues. I could not find any 4.4.4 stock Rom actually, only 4.4.2.
My 3 questions are:
- among the different versions of 44.2 Stock that are listed for my country, can I just select the highest version number?
- will the root stay after restocking to 4.4.2 as per the FAQ?
- once on 4.4.2, will the phone be updated over OTA again to 4.4.4?
Thanks

Hey guys, I'm fairly new to all of this. I have a question about this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2767026
I am currently rooted, and safestrap on version 4.4.2 of kitkat. When I flash this, I am going to flash version 4.4.2, but this rom also has downloads for 4.4.3 and 4.4.4. Do I need to start with 4.4.2 and flash my way up in order to get to 4.4.4?
Thanks!

Hello I'd like to know if there's some way to restore stock system.
I had 4.4.4 installed then tried other rom like CM, Slimrom etc.
Now I'd like to go stock again, but the only 4.4.4 rom on the http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14 is Verizon US.
However mine was Tesco UK, am I able to flash Verizon without problems or I have to wait untill they relase image for Tesco UK 4.4.4

hi, i want to update to CM12.1 but first i want to be real sure that:
1) i can go back safely if i don't like
2) i won't soft/hardbrick
i'm currently on 4.4.4 US Retail on my XT1032, 2 months ago i updated to 5.0 stock brazil but don't like it because no xposed and doesn't wanted to try cm12, i downgraded to 4.4.2 making a softbrick but somehow i get out and updated to 4.4.4, I have understood that i need to have CM11 installed in order to install CM12, i have the CM11 snapshot for falcon ( from 2014) and have the CM12.1 latest nightly, now:
1) it's safe to flash the CM11 snapshot to install CM12.1 later?
2) if i don't like it or is very unstable, i can go back to 4.4.4?
sorry for the bad english and thanks in advance
Hi. I am in really desperate need of some help. I have a Verizon Moto G XT1028PP. I am in need of the original stock rom. This particular phone is from the earlier batch that was released with Android 4.4.2. I have tried several roms but errors show up when flashing the gpt.bin and especially the motoboot.img One of those roms was the CFC Falcon 4.4
2. Any and all help is appreciated. I am looking forward to hearing from someone real soon.

Where can I download Verizon Lollipop ROM for Motog G1?
There is a lot of buzz about 5.0.1 being released in the US for all Moto g phones OTA but how do I manually get this release? I am on Page Plus with a modified Boost Mobile phone and I am not getting the update ota. Has the Lollipop version for CDMA services been released, where?

I am happy with 4.4.4 on the Moto G and just ok with 5.2 on a rooted 1st gen Nexus 7. It has to be restarted every day or so b/c of memory leaks and lagging.

I used this post to update to OK4, current lollipop version, and then rooted stock version (I used metalfan's 1/19 modified build). he has a pure stock version too.
