Yes, I don't change recovery. I always write stock firmware using that guide.

Yes of course

Yes of course, I had already installed the rom stock version to rom GPE. My version of bootloader is 41.13

I have already written, download your phone specific firmware. from elsewhere on Motog G forums
You dont have to do anything just follow instructions properly and copy paste the code.
You took risk of installing GPE on your phone and afraid of these simple instructions !!

KK this with 4.4.4 versions with versions older than 4.4.4 (eg 4.4.3) sends a partition error.
from what I read it is a common problem and is solved by downloading a new gpt.bin file but does not work in my case, I begin to think that the problem is my Motog.

Then you should search extensively on XDA, other members might be able to help you.

Try using mfastboot, available in this zip:

I am facing the same problem. .if i try to flash anything via mfastboot it gives an error of failed to erase partition..please help

Got mine working after similar problem for days...cm 14.1 installed
guys the only solution i worked out for this problem is..
1. unlock bootloader (not sure if it is a must)
2. using fastboot boot into twrp version 3.1.x.x or later using comamd
mfastboot boot twrpimagename.img
3.flash a twrp img file to the recovery from there i can confirm versions 3.1.1.0 and 3.1.0.0...
nb. you can install it to either boot partition or recovery either will do
4. use ur newley istalled recovery to install a twrp compatible rom, either stock or custom...
there u go

Preflash validation failed trying to flash stock 4.4.4

I have a bootloader unlocked XT1032 MOTO G on UK EE network. I have been trying to flash stock 4.4.4 (so that I can upgrade to OTA lollipop) but am getting a 'Preflash validation failed error'.
I've tried various things to get it to flash the images but nothing has worked.

Crazy question but are you sure you are flashing the correct rom for your phone? Was it on gpe before?

I'm pretty sure I am. I did try and convert to GPE using the AIO tool (when trying to resolve the issues) but I've seen nothing to suggest this has actually worked.
The phone has previously been rooted, but isn't currently.
