I installed the Brazillian lollipop (5.0) soak test on my Asian Moto G,
I've heard that 5.0.1 has came out for GPE devices, so I flashed the GPE 4.4.2 ROM to my phone
then I planned to upgrade to 5.0.1 via OTA,
The 4.4.2 GPE ROM seems has no problem, but after I install the 4.4.4 OTA, my phone won't boot at all, not even to fastboot mode,
So I googled and I found out that we need MBM-CI 5.0 to bring our dead devices back,
As I said, I've heard that Official Lollipop has came out for us,
So does it mean that Motorola has also released the MBM-CI 5.0?
If it does, then where can I get it?
Sorry for my bad English, I'm Indonesian, and I hope some of you could help me out
Thanks

It happens that we face the same thing. I did the same as you couple of days ago. Just wait for the Motoflasher to release the MBM-CI 5.0. Probably the new tool will be released on January or February as the motoboot.img for 5.0 officially released.
Sabar aja bro. Sheers!

I have read that we should leave it always connected to the wall charger until the MBM-IC lollipop will be out.
The guarantee would cover the issue being the Nexus stock at the time of the Brick, even starting it there should be no signs of tampering, but the problem that if for unlocking the bootloader deny us the guarantee, we could spend more than worth the MotoG ... sure thing, I'm glad I bought a Nexus 5, after 1 year of modding I never had these problems, not be purchasing anymore device not Nexus. Should be out before the factory and after the OTA, not the reverse.
When I can do it on again I sell it and buy my girlfriend a Nexus 4 White.
Where will it be released?

We could always try to send him assistance hoping for a warranty repair, or paying for the work, I do not think it can cost as much, being a smartphone cheap ..
I am on the same your situation, we can not throw a smartphone that worked great, you might not find a solution, I am not a MotoG users, the Moto G is my girlfriend, is the first time I've heard of MBM-CI and is the first time that brick making a smartphone with a firmware downgrade stock .... crazy stuff .... Sure you never buy a smartphone more than a Nexus .... What a horrible situation ... I have seen that there are several files MBM in the OTA but I would not know how to make them useful for our purpose ... From what I see nobody starts moving to resolve the situation.

yep, that's how bootloader works, bro. That's why after we unlock the bootloader, we always notified everytime on out bootscreen. the motoflasher has help many users on 4.4.4 now we have to wait for the 5.0 officially released by Motorola. the MBM-CI files for blank-flash wasn't inside the OTA files, but inside of motoboot.img, what we have inside ota is only boot.img.p. that's all what i know.

What rom did you use before returning to the stock? Did you use the Brazillian soak test? If you did, then it makes sense, you ruined the bootloader, just like I did
So now, what we gotta do is wait, isn't it?
My question is : How long we must wait for it?

Hello guys,
I upgraded my Moto G a couple of days ago to Lollipop 5.0 and yesterday I decided to downgrade my phone back to 4.4.4.
But when I updated OTA 4.4.4 my phone won't boot up.
I've flashed MBM-CI 4.3 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 with Motoflasher, but it still won't boot up.
Please, how to make MBM-CI file? I still have my OTA 5.0.
Thanks.

People have been waiting since November or December for the MBM-CI files. So you're out of luck as of now. The best you can do is get a cheap lumia phone or use some cheap virgin mobile android if you don't have a backup phone. Either one works, I guess. shawnsingh is working on a fix, apparently. So just cross your fingers and hope for the best :good:
IMO, nobody can do this when Moto themselves haven't leaked the package we needed, not even shawnsingh who's mentioned above (no actual progress from him yet, just promises). Just yell and shout to the Moto employees if you still had to.

Well, i need a sandwitch. Who cares? Just wait like everyone else or take it to the service center for a board replacement.
JTAG
How about JTAG? Is it the best solution? Or is it not even a solution? Come on. I've only used this phone only for 9 days, then I bricked it

I had a broken camera lens on my 1st Moto G that I bricked. I chatted with a Motorola employee, and they said that it wouldn't be considered under warranty if the camera lens was broken. I still sent it in after I bricked trying to downgrade to 4.3 and what do you know, the camera lens was fixed as well. If you still have warranty and don't tell them about the screen you replaced yourself, there is a high chance that they will fix your phone and send you a fixed device, or even a new device.

Hi people! I am new here and i need a bit of help... First of all thanks for your replys and sorry my abd english, is not my native language.
Well in resume my moto G originally was us global gsm 4.4.2 later i changed to gpe 4.4.2 then change back to us gsm for about 1 month.
When 4.4.4 was relesead i change back to gpe later i manually flash the ota to 5.0.1 by sideload, i was a little insastified with lollipop so i rollback to gpe kit 4.4.4 and later 4.4.4 brasil, (with 2 failed attemps because missings comands) so... My question if upgrade again to lollipop with the ota notification in phone i can brick or hard brick my phone? I heard people getting hard bricks for things similars and i am a litle scare to update.
Thanks for reading.
Bump
Firstly don't bump... Secondly, yes you will brick your phone and I can't understand why you even bothered with lollipop with all the modifications you made...

Hey guys my moto g XT1032 has been incredibly slow since the update to 5.0.1, I think this is due to the memory leak issue?
Restarting solves the issue for all of 20 mins - I've also tried wiping the cache.
Has anyone had any experience with this ?
I'm stuck between waiting for 5.1 and fixing it or downgrading to kitkat - it's incredibly frustrating at this stage waiting for my apps to load.

IMO kitkat is far more responsive, quick, and stable than lollipop. Lollipop 5.1 is better than 5/5.01/5.02 but I still prefer kitkat over Lollipop. That's just my opinion.

Okay. In your original post you stated that you have the 2nd gen moto g. The xt1032 is the 1st gen moto g.
Also, if your bootloader is not unlocked and/or you are not rooted then you are stuck on Lollipop. If it is unlocked then you can adb fastboot the correct 4.4.4 firmware for your phone to go back to KitKat. I purchased my xt1028 with JellyBean on it, ota'd to 4.4.2 KitKat, then later took the 4.4.4 ota. Unlocked bootloader, rooted it and flashed numerous KitKat roms. Then upgraded my bootloader from 41.13 to 41.19 and flashed more than a few Lollipop roms. At the end of the day, I am just not impressed with Lollipop at all. Too bright, too many colors, and the design is too kiddie-like, as though they designed it for kindergarten children. Grow up android, and make an os for adults.
I reverted back to KitKat and I like it far better. Although I am about done with android. Going to iphone.
thanks for the reply - you're right -I'm a 1st gen ( XT1032).
So am I completely stuck on lolipop since the upgrade? ( I'm not rooted)

Yes, unfortunately if you are not rooted you are stuck on lollipop. However, you have a GSM phone and I think it is unlockable through Motorola's bootloader unlock program. Here is a link that may help: http://motogroms.com/moto-g-bootloa...o-g-xt939g-xt1008-xt1031-xt1032-xt1033-xt1034
And if you have success unlocking your bootloader, this link will help you restore KitKat on your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Keep in mind though that when you took the Lollipop ota it updated your bootloader so even if you restore your phone to KitKat you will still have the updated bootloader(bootloader cannot be downgraded) so you will have some screen flicker every time you reboot your phone but that is resolved by just turning the screen off/on.
If you need any further assistance please feel free to let me know and I'll do what I can to help.
Upgraded mine 2 days ago I totally hate lollipop
the lock screen sucks with the speed dial on it .....I have acidently made calls twice......I have had to put a pass code in to stop this happening
untill I can find a way of removing this pile of **** from my phone.

Your welcome.
And I am not quite sure if there is a 5.1/5.1.1 Lollipop update for your phone. You can always visit Motorola Software Update Page to check.
Hello all,
Ive searched through the forums and it seems that there is only support for the gpad 7.0 or 8.3. I have successfully rooted the gpad but an OTA update attempted to come through and canceked because of root. I deleted some of the att bloatware so i would like to flash the stock rom if possible so i can update it. Any help would be much appreciated.
Has the Gpad f been lost and forgotten? Im surprised i havent received any input/suggestions.
lost
it probably has I have still yet to see a stock rom for this device, curse you AT&T
I finally received the 6.0 Marshmallow update today for my At&t GPad F 8 - v495.. Runs so smooth now, It 100% better when scrolling in the browser..
On another note my T-mobile s7 edge has had a update available for about 3 weeks now but I haven't takin it yet because It's already running on 6.0.2, I'm waiting on root an afraid it could get in the way of the work that's already been done to achieve root so I'm holding off for now..

Was your v495 rooted prior update? The newest firmware I have is the v49520c with marshmellow being v49520g
I cannot get it to work and I cannot find the stock firmware to reset it!
need help too
I am in same situation. Rooted and deleted bloatware. Can unroot but MM won't install. I think it may be all the bloatware, etc that I erased. Hard to find stock firmware. Any help is appreciated. I rooted with Kingroot.
For what it is worth, I spoke to AT&T today and they said Marsmellow has not yet been released to the v495
I'll be receiving my AT&T LG G PAD F 8.0 (V495) (5.0 Lollipop) in the next couple of days...
Before I start "Playing" is there any way for me to create a COMPLETE backup of the device so I can start fresh (and reset the root flag for the warranty) if I need to??

Best I can tell, there is no way to un-trip the root flag.
The correct way to do it would be to flash the stock firmware and start all over, but no-one can find the stock firmware. The LG PC Suite that works for a lot of the LG devices does not work as of yet on the v495. LG says the most up to date firmware is the v49510c. Marshmellow is v49520g I think.
Please someone correct me if I am wrong! I lost connectivity to my LG G3 through Qpair when I updated that to MM. I am strongly considering sending the pad to LG and have them reflash it!
Has anyone figured out how to root LG G Pad 8 v495 (6.0.0 marshmallow)?
Software: V49520g
Kernel: 3.4.0+
Build: MRA58K
I JUST got this new tablet today and it was 5.0.2 Lollipop when I 1st turned it on, and it got a forced OTA upgrade to 6.0.0 marshmallow while I was still going through the factory setup/activation process! LOL!!!

Can any of you extract the update zip please!? My tablet got stuck on att logo trying to root it
Really wish I didn't update to marshmallow, especially since it seems there's no way to flash the old version back onto it now. Two things are making me think about returning it:
caveat: I am utilizing this unlocked to use on Tmobile
1) LG disables the adaptable storage feature in marshmallow so you can't combine your sd card and internal as one "storage". You can't even move apps to sd card!!
2) For some reason, likely a bug in the firmware/software, I can't set the "mmsc" to allow my device to connect to Tmobile networks!

I do agree, Marshmallow is making this tablet quite smooth for the underpowered device it is, I'm only using it for streaming/video playing anyway as I got it on amazon for $80 unlocked.

Tot File is all i have.
LG VS495 5.0.2 Stock Firmware
This my first post and I know I'm asking a lot(and most likely impossible, but if someone has that DLL file to go with george241312's .tot file, I would so grateful!
For all those having problems with not being able to update to Marshmallow, I too was rooted when I was on 5.0.2 Lollipop an had the same problem as everyone else but I was trying to get the first small update that they pushed out an the only way I got it taken care of was to basically brick it until it wouldn't go pass the LG Boot screen then called LG and told them that my Device wouldn't Boot a past the LG Logo, Witch they walking me through a factor reset and ask me to turn it off for a hour then try it and if not call them back.. Well, needless to say that turning it off for a hour doesn't help.lol.. Anyways, They ask me to send it back to them because they put a one year warranty on all their Devices.. It was gone for 5 days and they sent the same device back to me with the small update already on it.. I will say don't brick it unless you can get a bill of sale from At&t because they do ask you send it in with the device... I did manage to get Xposed Framework install before I bricked it but it was buggy has hell, mainly because it was made for the LG Stylo.... Wish there was another way to fix this problem but AT&T hasn't released any firmware for any device since 4.3 Note 3 if I'm not mistaken.. Note: that I'm not telling you all to go and brick you device, I'm merely explaining how I got mine fixed. ..Good luck everyone..
Is this LG GPAD 8.0 F, able to root under Marshmallow?
I am thinking of ditching my Samsung Tab 7.0 A6 (2016) (model T285) due to the rooting issue (bootloader locked, no root possible, no 3rd party rom support).
I wish to get a LG G PAD 8.0 due to the knock code thingy and I already owned a LG G3 phone.
Is there a CyanogenMod firmware for this LG G PAD 8.0 F (Model V495)?
Here Help
Does anyone have the mixer_paths.xml for this device??? If so please post here so I can copy it.

What do you mean "only till you reboot?"
Posted using a calculator and delayed by AT&T.
