Here ist what i have experienced:
I was on System Version: 181.46.3
Well nevertheless:
It was the most recent version i could get and i wanted to get back to Android L.
I installed CM12 the Following way, I had a lot of problems with that. So here is my experience and everything:
So you need to know, to install CM12 or other CM12 based ROMS you first need to have CM11 installed.
Newer Versions of the recovery might be having problems installing CM11, so i would recommend using PhilZ Touch Recovery. It was working for me.
1st: install PhilZ recovery
2nd: factory reset
3rd: install cm11 (Unified Build, due to no up-to-date-build for XT925)
4th: boot
5th: install latest TWRP XT925/TWRP XT926
6th: factory reset
7th: install CM12 XT925 / CM12 XT926 or other CM12 based ROM
8th: install Gapps
9th: wipe cache/dalvik cache
10: Boot
11: Have fun.
Possible problems:
"This package is for moto_msm8960, xt907, scorpion_mini, smq, xt926, vanquish, this is a xt925" ------> You got a problem with the Recovery, it is too new. Try PhilZ
CM12 Booting, inconsistent Data partition stuff error ---------> you did not install cm11 and did not wipe Data before installing CM12, when coming from Blur Rom
Bootloop ---------> no wiping or you did not install cm11 before installing CM12
I hope this might have helped you.

Heyho
I have an XT925.
I installed the msm8960 Build.
The Reason i used the unified Build was, there is no KKBL build for the xt925.
thanks again, onto the procedure now
just last thing, which version of philz recovery you installed, download link has latest one @esok44

If you come frome OTA Kitkat 4.4.2
you have to change Step 1st: install PhilZ recovery ------ to ------ Install TWRP2710-RAZR-HD_M-KITKAT.img instead then you can flash the CM 11
If you like philz_touch_6.58.7-moto_msm8960.img recovery (it can mount external Memory Card as USB) you can flash it after all installations after Point 11. The only thing that you cannot start directly to recovery from CM 12.1
I managed to get my xt925 updated to KKBL, and after flashing cm12.1 I'm stuck in the boot animation. I tried flashing several cm11 versions as suggested somewhere else as step inbetween, but most of them resulted in boot loops (right after unlocked bootloader warning) Any Idea how to fix this ?
btw. I'm trying to flash the lastest cm12.1 . unfortunately I did not make a backup uf stock KK rom before starting this. silly me Is there a stock 4.4.2 ROM available to flash with RSDLite ? I Already tried to restart the whole process - but flashing Stock JB won't work after having KK BL

Fixed the Issue by flashing Slimrom 4.4.4 as interlude. Now I'm on CM12.1 and bootup process is normal.
Thank you, so much!

I was with the same problem and a fixed it after read your tip!! thank you very much!!!!
That is what did the trick for me too.
At first cm12.1 wouldn't run on my XT925. Then i flashed SlimROM 4.4.4, booted it up, rebooted into recovery mode (twpr 2.8.6.0), flashed cm12.1, wiped cache and dalvik and then rebooted.
Now it runs stably on cm12.1. Thanks a lot!
Hey all,Im pretty much a noob when it comes to twrp and roms,so please with me.
So,I have an Lenovo a6000 that I accidentally soft-bricked(now succesfully in twrp recovery)
So,I bricked the device by installing an update for a custom rom by wiping sytem,data,cache and D. cache.I realize that was my mistake so now Im asking,how to install a custom rom update ???What should I wipe in TWRP?
Bumper.Reply fast.Thanks
Hello guys. Can anyone help me to fix my problem. I tried flashing the latest build of Nitrogen OS and Bokrom but I can't flash it. Tried to flash it on Multirom on either primary or secondary but I'm stuck at
"patching system image unconditionally"
For over 30 minutes. Flashed stock image because I can't fix the problem then installed TWRP 3.0.2-0 but still the problem persist.
Please help me. Thanks.
I'm running 8/31 build of Bokrom. That's the only Nougat rom I can flash right now. Thanks for help guys. :good:
