Best option for timely official updates is XT1032 Google Play Edition (GPe). But not all custom ROMs are compatible with GPe (as seen with the current 5.0.x custom ROMs).
If only "all custom ROMs supported" is the concern, then any (non-GPe) XT1032 will do. Like US-Retail, UK-Retail, European, Brazilian, Argentinian, etc.
(Actually, all XT1032 are inter-convertible.)
falcon is the name for all 1st gen moto g, XT1028 to XT1034. But actually, its the XT1032 on which custom ROMs are built.. Only later they are made compatible with other versions. So, we can assume falcon to be XT1032.
Also, I've noticed that US-Retail XT1032 (also the one I own) gets the official updates from Motorola (not talking about "Soak Tests") , a little bit earlier than other regions.
Sent from my XT1032 using XDA Free.

So I'm just curious at this point..I know I'm on the orig. Moto g forums. With that being said its been said that moto g 2nd gen is the exact same phone as the orig moto G just with a bigger screen..but same screen resolution,same internals,same battery etc. But the moto g does have front speakers and a slight bump on the camera.
My question is..
Can the orig moto g Roms work for the moto g 2nd gen since there the same exact phone?
The reason I'm post in this on here instead of the 2nd gen forums is I know not a lot of people who own orig moto g will jump to the 2nd gen even devs for that matter but did anybody on here jump ship and know if this will work?
Moto G (1st Gen), Moto G LTE and Moto G (2nd Gen) each have unique Kernels and ROMS. They are not interchangeable from my experience. When a custom kernel is available for 2nd Gen maybe then you can try one of the zips from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688
While the hardware is almost identical, Motorola have made changes breaking compatibility. It probably wouldn't be a massive challenge for a skilled developer.
Summary: Someone needs to create a modified Moto G (2nd Gen) stock kernel that is compatible with Moto G (1st Gen) ROMs. Even if the ROM did boot, camera and other features may not work.
Of course it will not works, even between Moto G 2013 variants (XT1032, 1033, 1034..) do not work on each other.

Not true. I have flashed ROMs (including kernel) for XT1028, XT1031, XT1033 and XT1034 on XT1032 and they work.
Hi,
I've unlocked the bootloader and rooted my (supposed to be) Motorola Moto G LTE 8GB - it has an microSD-Slot.
Now I wanted to install the Cyanogenmod 11, but the installation fails with following comment:
This package is for "peregrine " devices; this is a "xt1032".
What is it now? I have not used LTE so far, but as I am informed, there is no xt1032 with microSD-Slot. What should I do?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

You are using a recovery that is for falcon(xt1032). Download and install one of the recoveries for Peregrine from the LTE Development forum.
Falcon(non LTE) roms, recoveries, etc. won't work on the Peregrine(LTE).
Head over to Moto G 4G Android Development.
I chose CWM 6.0.5.0. - worked well.
Is it possible to get back from 5.0.1 GPE to 4.4.4 GPE and then from 4.4.4 GPE back to Retail 4.4.4?
I have Lollipop now, but I think its not so stable like KitKat, it has many compatibility problems with some App and so I decide to go back to Retail, because I don't really like the GPE Version of the Moto G, some APPs are not included and I think I miss the "old" KitKat.

Yeah I already tried the second link.
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.
XT1028 Stock ROMs are available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688
Latest version of TWRP recommended: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/recovery-twrp-2-8-2-0-touch-recovery-t2980621
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?
cchriscollins-
I am in the same situation with same device on PP. I am rooted on 4.4.4. Motorola site still says coming soon.
https://motorola-global-portal.cust...r_detail/a_id/97322/p/30,6720,9050/reg/891617
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.
Ok so I have been trying to root and install custom rom on this phone, but find limited info on my model which is the xt1031, I see lots of info on xt 1032 but any one know a custom rom that I can install on my phone? I just got the custom recovery installed
.
Hi,
think you'll not find many things...Moto G reaches slowly his end...Don't forget when it cames out : 2013. It's already fantastic to see it developed nowadays...
And that's also sadly the reason to find it at Boost and others...
Take a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3017510 , optimized one for your model...
Any of the ROMs that say falcon will work...
