Hello. I have a following doubts. Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.
And that recently could not stand waiting for the official OTA motorola moto G 1st generation. Ai made a forced update to 5.0.2. Tired of Roma decided to install another rom. I made the conversion pro GPE, and installed the rom, I was a few days with her, but because of the 2 chip back to Stock kit kat. But I came across a soft brick, do not leave the boot animation after a while remade, and I could go back to 4.4.4 sotck retail.br. Today I received the OTA motorola, for lollipop 5.0. But is your problem, I have seen countless topics that update over the air, the cell will stay with hard brick. Because the bootloader.
You got a problem I install OTA lollipop?
Bootloader version: 41.18 (sha-99084d5, 10/29/2014 23:54:18 (using 4.4.4 Kit kat Stock reatil rom)

Its me again
My question is
Im going to use the 5.0 of Motorola when its officialy release
Im in CM12 actually
But i already have the 41.18 (5.0.1) bootloader
And i only can downgrade my xt1032 to 4.4.2, but i have to update to 4.4.4 first but i think i cant because of the GPT/Bootloader.
Is there any way to skip 4.4.4 or is there a 4.4.4 image for the xt1032 because i havent found anyone yet
Be very careful about what you do from this point. Some people have hard-bricked their phones by walking the road you are on. Their phones are useless until factory firmware images are available.
I suggest you wait until there is a full firmware image for Stock Lollipop. When available, it will be announced here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2546251&page=11
Thank you mate ?
When my regular moto G was at 4.4.4 I decided to "upgrade" my phone to 5.0.1 GPE. Then, for some reason, I did not want GPE 5.0.1 anymore, so I downgraded to stock 4.4.4 then installed cyanogenmod 5.0.2.
The result is the famous screen flickering - which can be solved by locking/unlocking the screen once.
Now I want to buy a new phone and sell my moto G. I'm wondering how I could get rid of the screen flickering. People will think that the moto G is somewhat damaged and will not buy. Will the screen flickering be gone if I downgrade to stock 4.4.4 again? Or do I have to wait for kernel fix?
Best regards
Martin
Kernel source is out. I personally haven't used it yet but I'm thinking that should solve it.
Ok
Could I just flash that kernel on my phone then? Where can I find it? Thanks for your help, I'm new to this
If an OTA update to 5.0 is available for your phone, flash back to stock and take the OTA update.

Hmm, the OTA will come. Dunno when.
Lets say I do as you suggest, will I get the OTA even if I don't have exactly the same stock image as when i bought the phone? Cause I can only find this (i'm from Sweden):
XT1032_RETAIL-EU_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.4…d7_CFC_1FF.xml.zip
You think that would give me the OTA Lollipop when it comes?
Best regards and thanks a ton for your help
I'm not sure, but if it isn't available through OTA, maybe you can find a stock image later.
I flashed my Telus xt1032 back to stock 4.4.4 and it keeps saying my software is up to date, but I know it isn't. It may take time for the Lollipop update to happen.
I didn't like Lolipop so I reflashed Kit Kat. T-Mobile tried pushing me an update which I turned off the notifications for. I'm rooted. I'd like to update to the latest Kit Kat version (presumably 4.4.4).
I wouldn't mind flashing a T-Mobile 4.4.4 image, but I've had very little luck finding any Kit Kat firmware at all.
My question is: How would I go about this? Or Where might I find the right firmware? (I've found a whole lot of dead links)
Okay, so I recently bought a used Moto G LTE, seller said it would be on Lollipop 5.1. When I received it, it had been rolled back to 4.4.4. Hence the screen ripple at every boot up (which persists until the phone is locked and then unlocked) that almost gave me a heart attack the first time. A little googling later I learn this happens because while you can downgrade android the upgraded version's bootloader remains. So last night I finally got around to rooting since I just can't go from a rooted phone to living with a non rooted one, feels like my phone has a noose around it. Anyway I wanted to know if it's safe to flash CM on my phone now or should I reupgrade to 5.1 first? And if I should is there a way to get it to update OTA again? If not any suggestions where to find the firmware? I just want to feel free to flash roms without bricking my phone.

Hi.
In my xt1040, i can flash CM 12 lollipop or a stock rom based from kitkat 4.4.4 without problems (I have a updated bootloader), to get OTA updates again, its necessary flash the stock rom (KK or LP), without root, PURE stock (with all "bloatware").
Now im using a optimized rom from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/rom-stock-motorola-4g-lollipop-rom-t3142816
No bugs, amazing battery life, and a pure stock, no "bloatware", great ram management.
Sorry for bad english.

You'll have to wipe the system anyway, updating it will be a waste of time...
Hi,
My wifes old phone is a Moto G 4g, she kept it on KitKat and never updated it to Lolipop. I'm looking to root it and put lineage OS on it, but I need to update it first to make sure the radio firmware is correct. When I try and do a system update now it keeps saying its already on the latest version, but its on KitKat so this cant be right. My wife was getting this popup before years ago but ignore it because she wanted to stay on KitKat, just wondering why its not working now ?.
Thanks in advance
