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

Hello you guys,
I would like to know if there's a way of ROOT Moto G 16GB without unlock bootload or format factory the phone?
In my Xperia L phone I was able to do that, but I cannot find a way to do in Moto G.
Thanks and regards.

Currently there's no way to do that on Moto G. The only concrete way is to support Towelroot (http://towelroot.com). Take a look this thread for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/geohots-moto-g-pledge-t2795129

I have the same phone and I done had about 5 of them. There has to be something you are doing wrong. All of my phones where able to get the bootloader unlocked. They are all XT1031's from Boost Mobile. If you would like some help just PM me.

[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!!
