Moto G (2013) GPE 5.0.1 to Motorola´s 5.0.2 - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, I´m in doubt here, and although i´ve been reading some posts, I cannot seem to understand the procedure to install Motorola´s 5.0.2 in my Moto G, actually on 5.0.1 GPE.
As far as I know, I need to wipe it off, then convert partitions to f2fs and then flash via custom recovery?
I´ve tried twice, but cannot install TWRP, will try with Phillz.
BTWy, my device is rooted and bootloader unlocked.
Thanx for any guidance you may lend me, I´m at work and cannot dwelve deep into hundreds of threads. I have already downloaded Blur_Version.210.12.40.falcon_umts.Brasil.en.BR.zip the official Motorola 5.0.2.
Thanks!!

you need the 4.4.4 firmware first and mfastboot v2 files to go back to stock motorola firmware.
and since you updated to 5.0.1 GPE, your bootloader has been updated, so when you downgrade to 4.4.4, you will see screen flickers.
Here are the commands,you must enter these commands one by one using command prompt (hold shift, and right click and choose open command window here) in the folder where the firmware files are (including the mfastboot files)
connect your phone to the computer with usb cable and type the command to go into the bootloader
adb reboot bootloader
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
and you need this firmware to be installed first before installing the lollipop update
XT1032_RETAIL-BR-SS_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_42_cid12_CFC_1FF

Thanx!
Well thank.you sir, very informative response.
Just to be super super-sure, no need to un-root or lock the bootloader right?

Hello guys I would like to do the same, I have the Gpe and install Motorola 5.0.2, but before I want to know how to fix the flicker screen, I don't get it using android but when I'm on twrp, it's annoying, do you have any idea how to fix it?
Sent from my XT1058 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

nice!
So i´ve flashed 5.0.2, with the method described here, it was *too* easy.
I did not, how ever, get the flickering screen bug...
So thanks again. and this is a safe way to go from gpe 5.0.1 to moto 5.0.2.

XT1039 now showing as XT1032

I softbricked my Moto G 4G this morning & the only way I could get it out of the bootloop was to flash with a X1032 firmware. I have subsequently managed to flash the latest stock XT1039 ((Moto_G_LTE_XT1039)_RET-EU-SS_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.46_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml) firmware but when I plug the phone into my PC it is shown as XT1032. Is there anything I can do to revert it back to its correct model number?
Did you use an included .bat file to flash or a series of fastboot commands? If the latter, what commands?

Its was an included bat file. I used the files from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/easy-unbrick-moto-g-restore-4-4-4-stock-t2850282
You might want to consider doing the fastboot commands manually. If all commands are used, ant trace of XT1032 should be gone.

I had to modify the sparsechunk files to match the ones in the rom that i downloaded
All Models of Moto G have 1032 in the baseband, is it possible your phone was always recognised on PC as XT1032?
It was definitely showing as1039 before the soft brick
Then obviously something is remaining from the XT1032 firmware. If you have a Custom Recovery, try the wipe options there.
Alternatively, the following command in Fastboot might be enough: fastboot erase system
BTW, never use the Fastboot command: fastboot erase all

I have tried the wipe option before. I will try fastboot erase system then reflash the stock rom
This didn't solve the issue

Soft bricked Moto G and random reboots

I know the title is a bit confusing, but I will try to explain the context of my situation so you can understand it better.
I have a x1032 since the end of 2013. When the first image of the Google Play Edition went "public", I converted my device to it, and it stayed that way, doing all the OTA updates, until the 5.1 GPE appear.
When I did the update to this version (5.1 GPE), my compass didn't work with some apps (for example, GPS tools and c:geo), and as it is a sensor that I use most of the time, I decided do revert my device from fastboot to the 4.4 “stock Motorola” (don’t remembre if it was 4.4.2 or 4.4.4) and then update it to the 5.0.2.
In the process, I think that I had a soft brick: when I turned on the device, he stayed in the “unlocked bootloader” image, and he didn’t move forward. But, after trying, I saw that I had access to the bootloader menu and to the recovery, without any problem. I tryed to install the images via fastboot, even the new 5.1 GPE and 5.02 Motorola ones, but none of them works.
I searched, and searched, and finally understand that in this cases, the problema is the /system, /data and /cache partitions that need to be formated, and then I can flash any zip rom via recovery.
And now, this is where I stay: Via fastboot I installed the 5.1 GPE rom. Then I installed philz touch recovery, formated all partitions in ext4, wipe them all (just to be sure ), and did an adb push to have the GPE 5.1 zip ROM from @lost101 in my sdcard, and installed it. AND IT WORKS!
Now, the actual problem: I’m having form time to time some random reboots. They always appear after I try to turn the screen on, and after 3 or 4 seconds, the phone reboot.
Can this be related to the softbrick? I tought it could be a rom problem, but no one else have the same complains and @lost101 says that maybe this is from my phone.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long text and my bad english.
I suggest you try flashing the GPE 5.1 Firmware Image available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/index-moto-g-falcon-factory-firmware-t3110795
Make sure you use only the following commands and use mfastboot available here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567719065
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin

You should not need to manually format partitions. The above commands will do everything for you. The reason for your sensor issues are that the fastboot flashing previous was not successful.
Please do the fastboot commands manually, one at a time, and log everything and post it here.

You are absolutely right: there were no errors (except the "normal" validation erros because it's a GPE image), and in the end, I didn't need to format the partitions manualy.
I think the problem was the fastboot (I was using the one from the sdk... my bad!).
Now I know that any problems don't come from the software side, because in that part, everthing is ok.
I will just ask you two more things:
- What custom recovery do you recomend?
- Your Low Memory Killer Tweak works without any problem in the 5.1 GPE installed via fastboot?
Thank you very much for your help. You really made my day.

Unfortunately, random reboots are still present
I have installed 5.1 Google Play edition factory image, with the mfastboot you told me, but it still reboots randomly. Did the same with the 5.02 EU from Motorola, and it behaves the same way.
The random reboots happen more or less, one time a day, and it's when I try to turn the screen on, it doesen't respond, and after 3 or 4 seconds, the system reboots.
Any clue of what can be? Is there a way to grab some logs to try to understand what's happening, or it is too difficult and it's better I don't have too many hopes?
It would appear some sort of corruption has occured. I can't say anything with certainty - but I do believe Bootloader corruption could cause what you are experiencing.
It's possible you could fix this by reflashing the Lollipop Bootloader. I did not include the fastboot command to do this above.
Here it is: mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
Try that and report back.

During my time with Moto G, I flashed it using fastboot, dozens of times, but I was so desperate in the other day that I didn't even notice that your list with commands didn't have the bootloader one.
Now I undestand why the bootloader I have is the one from 5.1 GPE.
I'm gonna try it. In the last 2 days I didn't have any random reboot, but I will take my risk and flash the bootloader from the 5.0.2 EU, and I will report back in the next days.
I'm buying you a beer today, for being so helpful and nice. Thank you very much.
I'm reopening this thread to try to see what's happening with my phone.
So, after flashing the bootloader of the 5.1 GPE, the phone was really better than it was in the OP.
My Moto G didn't reboot anymore when I tryed to turn the screen on, but instead, it started to reboot randomly every 2 or 3 weeks, without needing to touch the phone (the phone was rebooting by itself).
In the last month or so, I'm using the XT1032 Retail EU 5.1 (Optimized) v1.0 from @lost101, and now the behavior is, once again, the described in the OP: I try to turn the screen on, the phone doesen't respond, and after 3 or 4 seconds, it reboots by itself.
And this is happening once every 1 or 2 weeks.
So, can anyone give me some help to try to understand what's happening? @lost101 @luca020400 @LuK1337 @matmutant
Usually, I have the original firmwares from Motorola or GPE, or I can have the optimized versions from @lost101 with TWRP.
Thanks for your help, guys!
Just for the record, I get occasional sudden / unexpected power off. It's rare, but stuff can happen when you are dealing with a complex device such as a smart phone. This is especially so, if you are rooting / modifying the operating system.
The problem could be related to something you are installing. Also, I recommend a clean install once every few months.

[Windows Tool] Moto G 2015 XT1072 Restore to to Stock Android 5.0.2

HI FRIENDS!
This is a one-click tool I made to automatically restore your device back to stock firmware. This is for Windows only at the moment. This tool can restore your device to stock when the device is booted up, in a bootloop, in recovery, or in booloader mode (fastboot mode).
Introducing my new "Restore to Stock" tool for Windows! This is tool currently supports XT1072.
So how do u restore to stock?
***This will wipe all your data***
Step 1)
Download the "Moto G 2014 Restore to Android 5.0.2" zip from here:
XT1072:
1) Firmware 22.46.28 [5.0.2-EU] - LINK
Step 2)
Extract the .zip to a location on your PC/Laptop you can easily access
Step 3)
Plug your Moto G 2015 into your computer
***Make sure all the proper device drivers are installed***
Step 4)
In the extracted folder, find a file called "Auto Restore Script" and click it (It is a Windows batch file)
Step 5)
In less than 5 min. your Moto G 2015 will be restored to stock firmware
NOTE: I RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS TOOL OUT ON YOUR MOTO G, SO JUST IN CASE IF YOU EVER ARE IN A PROBLEM (BOO-LOOP, CORRUPT PARTITION, ETC.) YOU KNOW HOW TO USE THIS TOOL AND U ARE ASSURED THIS TOOL WORKS! ​
If you like my work please donate by clicking "DONATE TO ME" on the left side of this post under my XDA username.
ALL DONATIONS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Oh my god, your lovely tool just saved my new Moto G from bricktown after an aborted attempt at rooting. Cannot thank you enough.
One note I want to add: in order to get this to work, I had to move the files into the same folder as my 'fastboot' and 'adb' installation, and also remove the 'm' from the start of each line. Otherwise, it worked perfectly.
Thank you thank you thank you!
you really need to add the mfastboot.exe file to this as in its current state it is not working until you add the file yourself. either add the file or change the script to use normal fastboot
Just to confirm ... will this restore my Moto G back 100% to how it was before I started rooting (and I can then receive official updates)? There are so many different versions of Moto G 2nd generation, like 2014 vs. 2015, Europe vs. USA, etc. I just want to be sure.
I tried rooting my phone yesterday, and I might want to go back to default at some point (I only unlocked bootloader + installed TWRP + installed SuperSU).
See attached photo of my phone's stats.
The link is broken
I have the file. I try to share it this weekend.
EDIT:
Here you are

Grab the latest stock image for your phone from the repo linked in my sign, read the first answer in this post reply on how to flash it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most of the times if you didn't flashed the wrong files you can recover from a bootloop by wiping data/cache (factory reset) whit bootloader or fastboot.
As @lucifermorn noted the original updater.bat file included by th OP wasn't complete, motoboot.img missing if i'm correct, and wasn't using mfastbootv2.
You can find bat scripts for flashing stock roms in my sign, latest minimal fastboot+mfastbootv2, and a link to the moto g stock roms repo on filefactory.
PS
@vegdroid that image is old too, latest 5.0.2 whit stagefright fix is 22.99-24.12 if i'm correct.
Check the moto g stock images repo linked in my sign.
EDIT
Ouch @erprando just realized you wasn't asking, but stating that you have flashed an xt1072 rom on an xt1078, that a very bad thing, if my bat script isn't working you know why.

[HELP] Please....... Moto g weird brick!!

While using my moto g last last night it suddenly got freezed, & when i restarted it....., it just doesn't boot up!! :crying:
Screenshots attached!!
I tried every....... every possible thing, tried reverting back to 5.0.2 & 4.4.4. But it just doesn't work!! RECOVERY gets stuck at TWRP logo!!
It shows everything as success success on fastboot mode while flashing (STOCK, RECOVERY, Anything......) but when it boots up there is nothing changed even the bootlogo is still the same.
No error of any sort comes up!!
Tried everything, tried flashing gpt.bin, reflashed bootloader, even tried flashing STOCK using RsD Lite but nothing happens, as if nothing was flashed!!
When left for a while it boots up(After showing AICP is Upgrading 3 exact times), just to give me a screen where it asks to put my password to Reset The Device(Screenshot attached), & whatever i put there as my password it accepts it & shows DECRYPTION SUCCESSFUL, PRESS OK TO REBOOT UR DEVICE, when pressed, it takes me to my RECOVERY where it gets stuck at TWRP logo!!
Is there any hope left or is my moto g gone forever!! Please someone help me!! I m not ale to sleep from 2 days......!! :crying: :crying:
Quick question: how many times do you flashed a ROM on your Moto G ? It seems that your eMMC flash storage is dying.

You can try one more thing: flash the files with mfastboot instead of fastboot but I don't think that it will work

That is why you got the error with gpt.bin. Flash the 5.0.2 firmware if you still have issues.

Your system partition has become read-only. This is a known symptom of Bootloader corruption.
Search XDA for potential solutions, but ultimately you may have to wait for the Lollipop Bootloader 'unbrick' method to arrive.

That guide will not work if you have the Lollipop Bootloader - v41.18. In the future, hopefully the newer Bootloader will be supported.

Hello, @lost101 I was willing to know which of the above commands should be used if I want to flash stock ROM on my MOTO G xt1033 without my internal data being harmed? My Moto G is rooted. I have access only to bootloader and fastboot. Phone is in bootloop as well the the recovery isn't moving ahead of the TWRP logo. I tried flashing different verisons of TWRP even I tried ADB as well but my device isn't detected in command "adb devices" though in command "fastboot devices" it is detected. Please help me out.
I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/moto-g-bootup-problem-recovery-mode-t3122492 from starting to end. My problem is somehow same with @ravibhat but his phone was on stock ROM and mine is not.
I was on LOLLIPOP (don't remember the exact version 5.0.2 or 5.1 or whatever) with Tesla ROM.
@sahil_arora05 - Please don't post about the same problem in multiple threads. fastboot erase userdata will make TWRP work again, however it will also wipe internal data. Try booting into stock recovery, enabling ADB sideloading and using the following command:
adb pull /sdcard​

[Q] Software status modified ? [SOLVED] IT IS OFFICIAL !

My phones' bootloader report " software status : modified " is there any way to revert it back to OFFFICAL ? Not rooted, no custom recovery, running bone stock motorola firmware flashed with RSD Lite but still it shows as " modified ". My phone was never able to take an OTA as well. Bootloader unlocked, puerto rico xt1225 flashed to brazil firmware. Any help to get this status into OFFICAL again will be appriciated.
ps : flashed puerto rico 5.0.2 firmware with rsd, wiped cache and factory resetted but still it shows " modified " grrr.
have you try via command in fastboot?
the commands are inside of the file flashfile.xml translating it become:
Code:
mfastboot oem fb_mode_set
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot bootloader.img
mfastboot flash radio radio.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot erase clogo
mfastboot oem fb_mode_clear
mfastboot reboot
i use mfastboot and put all the file of the XML rom in that folder mfastboot folder.
you need to check the file flashfile.xml or the files to see how many system.img_sparsechunk.# you have to change how many command (mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.#) you will give, the 4.4.4 have 5 the 5.0.2 have 8, but it may be different in yours.
I did not check the last time i did the commands to see if i was on OFFICIAL, but it should work.
In the brazilian forum the guys say if you did the process to flash back the 4.4.4 after the device been 5.x.x, you will not be able to flash the file gpt.bin but you will be able to receive the OTA of 5.0.2 and install it after the install the OFFICIAL appears.
Here i'm able to flash all the files all the commands are accepted when flash the 5.0.2 stock but when i try 4.4.4 the gpt.bin doesn't accept, unfortunately i did not check to see the software status after the 5.0.2.
I will make a test if you not successful because i wanna to know if is possible, but flashing xml stock ROM erase internal memory and right now i have too many files on the device that need to backup and have no time.
If it work out to you post in here :good:
Thank you for your detailed post. I tried to flash the phone with these commands one by one, it was all successful until sparsechunk 5 and 6 and 7 . These images didn't flash and failed with preflash validation errors but for strange reasons it flashes fine with RSD Lite. I am assuming that the factory image i was trying to flash was " Retail Brazil " one but my phone is Puerto Rican, so i am downloading 5.0.2 of puerto rico firmware and try again. I will let you know about the outcome.
edit : i could execute all commands successfully with puerto rico 5.0.2 image but it still show as modified.

Ok. I will flash my device to stock today, i doing some tests in TWRP and have erase internal memory, my device is empty i can flash stock without worry about lose data...
My stock xml rom 5.0.2 from Brazili, flash all good with those commands, they all are accepted. The img_sparsechunk are related to the file with the same name they only give a error if the file is not there or have a different name, the stock 4.4.4 doesn't have img_sparsechunk 5 to 7.
Are you shore you have the 5.0.2 original untouched?
later today i put here my result...
i did it...
Is necessary to donwoad a ROM that will received a OTA this will:
Brasil Retail Stock Lollipop 5.0.2 /// QUARK_RETBR_5.0.2_LXG22.33-12.13_cid12_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
do the commands i posted before
this:
mfastboot flash motoboot bootloader.img
is not need unless you are upgrading from 4.4.4 to 5.x.x via fastboot for the first time.
in a downgrade don't use too...
Then after the device boot it will received the ota (only 15mb if you use that ROM) you accept after the download and install go back to bootloader and it will be change to Official, doesn't need to official to be show to install a OTA, just a original xml ROM installed.
i did exactly the same commands but brazil 5.0.2 sparsechunk 5 6 7 gave preflash validaton errors. So, i was successfull to flash all images of puerto rico 5.0.2 . There is some region information embedded in our phones even if it is flashed to other regions, phone still knows its origin. i will do as you said and flash 4.4.4 of pr and take ota on top of it.
..
You know what It is official now bro ! qe 0-1 as opposed 1-1.

Thank you, this shed some light and helped me to get my Moto X Play 'official' again.
The OTA update did the trick after flashing the official.
