Line after Downgrade 5.0 to 4.4.4 - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So guys, i got Android 5.0 Lollipop on my XT1033 so i got camera bug, than i tried to downgrade.
Succesfull, but now, sometimes a line appears on the screen sliding down, i can take it out with locking phone, but, what is this???
And how can i fix it?
And i can Relock boot loader to take the boot loader unlocked screen out?

its because you are running the 5.0 bootloader. you will need to wait until there are other 5.0 firmwares to upgrade to

Hmmm no way? Ty for this

Is there any permanent flickering fix? (on downgrade)

I know this probably has been debated but the threads are kinda messy, what I want to know is as of today is there any permament fix for the screen flickering on 5.0 to 4.4.4 downgrade. I know it goes away if you turn the screen off and on, that's why I'm asking about a –permanent– fix.
AFAIK that happens due to bootloader's incompatibility between the 5.0 bootloader and the 4.4.4 firmware. Is there any tested way to downgrade the bootloader?
Thanks :good:
Lol yes. Re-upgrade to lollipop.
Regarding bootloader, no such known method yet. (I don't think there will be anyway)

What about flashing roms on Lollipop? I tried CM12 and MoKee and you get the screen flickering on those as well?

[Q] [XT1032] Flickering screen after downgrading 5.02->4.4.4

Dear all,
I'm experiencing the infamous screen flickering after I downgraded from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4. Phone (Moto G XT1032) is working fine and the flickering goes away after switching the screen off and on again.
However, after a thorough search through these forums with no answer to my question, I was wondering whether anyone came up yet with a more permanent solution to tackle this problem?
I read it has something to do with the bootloader. While downgrading, I didn't flash the 4.4.4 bootloader (as told) because it could cause a hard brick of my phone. So my second question is; can anyone explain to me why the phone probably hard bricks when you try to downgrade the bootloader? Is there no workaround for this?
Thanks in advance!
Anyone?
I could flash the 4.4.4 bootloader fine when I downgraded. I believe it is required to receive the OTA update (could be wrong). The flickering is most likely caused by the 5.0.2 bootloader. So if you do want to try downgrading it that'll likely fix the problem

Droid Ultra Maxx 4.4.4 SU 6-7 Unlock Possibilities

So I dropped my original Droid Maxx in water and had to get a new one. Unfortunately, the new device came with a new update that I have since downgraded to 4.4.4 SU 6.7 and rooted it.
My goal is to get back to an unlocked boot loader via the Sunshine app. but I need to downgrade first.
Is there any current way to do this?
I have tried to downgrade the 4.4.4 SU6-7 to 4.2.2 and 4.4.4 SU4-21 on RSD Lite with multiple failures on "flash partition "gpt.bin"
Does anyone know of a way to downgrade or did I lose a lot more than just my phone in the water?
Thanks in advance...

Unfortunately, there is no possible way that you can unlock the bootloader, if you are once upgraded to version 4.4.4 SU 6-7.... unless your device is a developer edition.

Atleast nobody has found a vulnerability and written and exploit yet. I'm sure there is a targetable vulnerability, rather someone can find it and figure out how to exploit it to achieve unlock is entirely another matter.
UGGGHHHH! Math it...I'm going out for a Droid Turbo. I found a thread with a confirmed bootloader unlock and root. Thanks for the info gents.

Restoring Bootloader 41.10 from Bootloader 41.1A Moto G XT-1045

Hi, I was searching around XDA and saw an upgrade to 5.1 for my Moto G XT-1045. I performed the upgrade but also needed to upgrade the bootloader due to screen flicker. So I did that. The upgrade worked but I just did not like the look or feel of 5.1 on my Moto G. I did a recovery with TWRP, but now I have the screen flicker on 4.4.4 due to having Bootloader 41.1a. I would like to go back to the OEM bootloader 41.10 which I have on my computer. But I keep getting a fail from fastboot. The phone will not allow me to downgrade the bootloader.
Has anyone successfully reinstalled an older bootloader? I know it is dangerous to be doing this but I feel I have the correct level of experience loading via fastboot.
If you know of a way to do this I would greatly appreciate the instructions.
Thanks in advance.
