My device is running on kitkat 4.4.4 ......indian variant
Any given Device can have an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) Rom/Firmware. Either Developed by Google or by developers here on XDA. That would give you GPE experience even if that's not a Official GPE device.
Please post in [RC-FAQ] >> Frequently Asked Questions for Motorola Moto G [Updated : 2014/12/08] so that one of the experts for your device may be able to chime in.

Perhaps a separate development thread should be created for Moto G XT1033 / Dual SIM.
Can some one report back the success/failure of using the Unofficial CM 11 ROM, here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2608377 , for it ? (All credit to dhacker29 and his team !) This is the only ROM which has some form of support for the XT-1033 but user feddback is minimal. For someone contemplating on buying this device, it would be helpful to know from existing users of this ROM on the Dual SIM variant of the Moto G.
CyanogenMod currently doesn't support Dual SIM configurations but going by posts here and there such as, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2631777 , it seems it's possible to upgrade to KitKat minus the functionality of the second SIM, rendering it a Single SIM...
Will CyanogenMod / developer support eventually extend to XT1033 as well ? Or will users have to contend with limited functionality such as Single SIM etc ? There seems to a large developer base for the other variants, maybe, we could have better solution.
This ROM doesn't work for me - no signal even with flashing the modem they said to flash in the first post.

mine was xt1033 kitkat asia retail ,same problem as yours.
One of my biggest gripes with KitKat is the crippled webview. A number of great browsers relied on webview, and delivered an unmatched experience with text reflow and configurable zoom defaults. In my attempt to get it back, I've compiled a CM11 with the older 4.3 webview.
I have the newer Moto G LTE, but unfortunately there are no custom roms yet so I have not been able to build one for my own device. As a result, I'm looking for users familiar with the flashing process and are willing to try this out and report back on how well it works on their non-LTE Moto G.
Some information and warnings
- Rom base is CM 11 KitKat 4.4.4 (Thanks CM Team, dhacker29, etc)
- This is for the non-LTE Moto G, aka Falcon
- Uses stock CM11 pre-built kernel
- updater-script has not been changed, so it should be the same flashing steps as the official CM11
- I do not have the regular Moto G, so I have NOT been able to test this myself
- You should be familiar with recoveries and have a proper backup of your device
- You will be doing everything at your own risk. I am not responsible if you end up damaging or bricking your device.
Just leave a reply and I'll get back to your with a PM with a link to download the rom.
bump! Still looking for someone to help me try this out.
Hi Storm, unfortunately I've not a moto g, but a lot of issues on my samsung galaxy s2 plus with webview. Chrominium works orribly on my device. Can you teach me to build CM11 with webkit for my device ?
Hope you agree
Best regards, Ricky

Hello,
You may visit this thread Link or this one Link and check for required files you need. Cheers!
Alternatively, you might create a XDA ID so I can help moving your post to Q and A section of Moto G 2014

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
Yeah if you're flashing a custom ROM you need to wipe data.
For custom ROMs you can have a look here :
Moto G Android Development
Or here:
Moto G Original Android Development
Good luck!
I am really sorry for posting my request here.
I have read the rule that states not to post requests.
But, I really want a 32bit SlimKat ROM for a6000.
I am aware of other devices running official SlimRom that sport specs very similar to a6000 (lettuce & osprey to name a few).
However, no phone capable of running SlimKat - ported or official, has specs similar to a6000 (closest, I believe, would be Peregrine).
So, I am not asking for Official SlimRom support.
It would be a real honour if you would port SlimKat ROM to a6000 - Just once without any further updates or the like is more than enough.
I understand what is ask is more than just porting ROMs but this is my last hope.
I am really sorry.
If it is not possible to create a SlimKat for a6000,
would you please create one for a similar spec'ed phone?
There are numerous phones with similar hardware specifications -
Xiaomi Redmi 2, Samsung Galaxy J5, HTC Desire 510(EU Model), Moto G4 play, Moto G 2015, Moto E (2nd) (LTE model), etc.
So, if possible please port SlimKat to any one of these & I am sure some of our devs might be able to port it to my device.
Thank You.
