Howdy, I've been running various Lollipop builds and ran the firmware update for bacon on my OPO over the last week or so, and I want to revert back to kitkat/stock. I found the flashable 4.4.4 zip, but it didnt work. I also had tried to restore a backup from stock but it acted strange, wouldnt wake up and was generally no good. What am I missing? Am I stuck on 5+?
You need to flash the modem and firmware files from kk.....download a fastboot package and flash only those required

if you open the firmware upgrade you can find the partition that must be restored from kitkat trough fastboot.

Hi, I have a xt1032, UL and rooted, stock rom and kernel, Xposed with TWRP. The ota just hit my phone this afternoon and I have been trying in vain for hours to update it because I need the bug fixes badly. I am trying to find the OTA.zip file....either that or the stock recovery.img file. Thank you in advance!

i dont know is there a stock recovery img in the pack of last version but i think there is just read all install drivers then flash stock rec. and then update ota,if you deleted some system apps you will get error then u should flash system chunks only to fix it after that do ota till get 4.4.3 flash costum recovery root and that's it

I flashed the stock recovery and also uninstalled xposed framework..still got an error message and update failed. I didn't delete any system apps but has some frozen thru TB. now defrosted and trying again. I'm on the T-mobile network (I thought it was cdma but I guess it's GSM) should my kernel be the174.44.1.falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.us? because I noticed it no longer has the 'AWS' part..if anyone could offer some insight on that
So you didnt sucsess to install ota ? Why dont you flash stock rom maybe you have some errors in system and then update.My version is like u wrote (it was before update) xt1034 quote me if u done with flashing and get ota search on forum stock rom images im on phone cant find link right now .

No, no success for me yet- there are links up now in other posts for the xt1034 my friend. I think at one point I flashed the wrong firmware by mistake, cuz I definitely have a xt1032 and the version should show 174.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US but this pic has the AWS version for the xt1034 that is not right for the xt1032
Dude you dont know wich version u have remove back cover and see on battery then install US retail rom im post link in last reply.pm if something goes wrong im not at home right now .

hi,
I have Lolipop 5.0 in my Moto G + root + TWRP. I received the 5.0.1 OTA but of course I can't apply the update because of TWRP. I read (here) that I need to come back to stock recovery to apply the update. I'll loose root access but that's ok, I'll root again later. My question is: how do I come back to stock recovery?
Thank you.
The same way you flash twrp.

There are links here where to download stock recovery. Can't browse the forum now. But i too have downloaded the stock from a post here. Hope it helps.

can't find XT1032 Lollipop stock recovery on XDA, I guess I'll have to open a new thread to ask... I flashed 4.4.4 stock recovery (through MotoTool AIO software) but I haven't been able to flash 5.0.1 update then. So I think 5.0 stock recovery is required to update to 5.0.1.
Thanks for your help.
If by chance you have the link to XT1032 5.0 stock recovery, please post it!

I guess you're using custom rom so restore to STOCK ROM .
Follow this guide (at the end dont flash any custom recovery) Stock recovery XT1032
Automatically you'll get stock recovery

no, I'm using stock ROM, with TWRP + root, that's it. So I just need to stock recovery to apply OTA update.
But thanks for the link, I understand how to use it to come back to stock recovery. Except... that this guide is for XT1033. Do you think I can use recovery.img XT1033 image file to flash my XT1032?
Is there any stock recovery flashable zip for this firmware not fastboot flash able ? And one ore thing, do I need unlocked bootloader for this ? My device is 64 GB non-global version
Uploading for you now, standby.

Thank you very much.one more thing buddy, can you share any link for multirom patched AK kernel for cm 11s as I couldn't find any in specific thread. I would like to dual boot it with Lollipop ROM. Sorry to keep on bothering you
No problems, here you go:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B98G0KTJwnBFM09OTEZ2NnVfekE/edit?usp=docslist_api
You need an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery to flash firmware though. And this is only the firmware, not the full OS.
Can't help with the kernel though, sorry.
Transmitted via Bacon
Hello, could I get a link as well?
I'm rooted with Custom Recovery, but I don't want to use fastboot as I'm having some adb driver funkiness.
So this way I can just flash 44S directly from the recovery after performing a Wipe..
I was happy on 1+1 44S and then immediately after OTA update to 05Q, keyboard because super laggy / touchscreen issues. Want to go back in a least painful way. All backed up now.
Thanks ahead of time!

Hello
had a question on if anything special is needed to go from lolipop and downgrading to kit kat or do i just flash like normal
I though i saw something about needing a special zip file in a thread but i just want to be sure i may be confusing it with the proximity zip or something
Thanks for answers
There's no such thing as a proximity zip. I think what you're referring to is the firmware zip. When going from KitKat to Lollipop you need to flash the Lollipop firmware and the Lollipop modem. When going back from Lollipop to KitKat you need to flash the KitKat firmware and the KitKat modem.

Strange, I have never had to flash the modem separately.
What exactly does it do?
I'm now running Lollipop YNG1TAS17L. I updated from KitKat to Lollipop via an OTA link using TWRP recovery. Should I still flash this Lollipop modem?

No
The OTA did it for you automatically
Please do not flash any modem on it unless you are facing issues with your radio(network connectivity)

I just tried what u suggested, but it didn't work. I am on CM12s and I want to try PA 4.6 Beta 6. So I downloaded kitkat firmware and two modems too ( the two kitakat modems with 'Full' prefix. I went to recovery, flashed the firmware, then tried to flash the PA ROM. It showed an error, like "can't go back to old version Nov from new version May". It also showed error in update binary script. Then I flashed the modem and firmware, and tried to flash PA again, but it didn't work. Please, help me. I wanna go to PA kitkat.

Alright, first things first. I can see you're asking the same question in the PA thread, please don't double-post, only discuss an issue in one place at a time.
Is that a themed version of TWRP you're running? And did you wipe properly before flashing? The error you're getting suggests to me that you're not wiping properly.
I did a full wipe: wiped system, dalvik, data, and cache. And sorry for double-posting. Was li'l impatient.
---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:23 PM ----------
And yes, it is themed version of twrp, 2.8.6.1

I'm unsure why it isn't working for you then unfortunately. I can only guess that the wipe isn't working properly because the installer is still able to detect the previous ROM. It might be worth flashing the stock TWRP instead of the themed version as that might be causing the problem.
Okay. Will try the same procedure with stock trwp.
Edit: @Heisenberg[/MENTION] The same error with stock twrp. Have a look.

I can't see the text in that image. I'm not sure mate, does the same problem happen with other ROMs?
Woohoo! I finally did it. @Heisenberg PA 4.6 Beta 6 flashed successfully. What I did was just RESEARCH. As you said that the error has got something to do with TWRP, I searched for CWM. I then went into Philz Recovery thread. Just scrolled down for download links. Read this somewhere, "To flash older files, use recovery version 6.02.2- . Then I got the link to download CMW touch recovery version 6.0.5.0. And then the magic began. Wiped everything, installed cm11 firmware, and then installed PA. And now I am running PA. Anyways, thanks for giving the hint about TWRP.
