Soft brick downgrade CM12.1 to KitKat

Hello!
I bought a Moto G falcon 2 mounts ago. Running CM12 everything was good.
I flashed a cm12.1, then my falcon started to crash randomly (mostly because i didn't flash the proper Gapps). So I wanted to revert back to KitKat to make a proper flash since the beginning, wich was ofc a bad idea. So I flashed the 4.4.4 stock ROM and now am in soft brick. I'm stuck at boot logo (The boot loader unlocked one). I tried to flash a stock 5.1 ROM (GPE_5.1_XT1032_LMY47M.M001_CFC.xml.zip) without any success.
My bootloader is updated to 4118, I can boot in recovery/bootloader.
Any ideas how to boot again? Thank you!

Well if you can boot into the recovery and if its custom (TWRP) wipe all the data on your phone. Second I would try to flash a ROM onto your device such as Resurrection Remix and see if that works. Update on your progress.

Thank you for your answer.
I tried to wipe data/factory reset, but twrp throws some error messages.
Unable to mount /data, /cache, /system and all derivatives.
I tried to flash a ROM through twrp but I think I can't because of that partition mess. I can't adb push to /sdcard, or sideload (seems to require /data).
I think that my issue is that I flashed the 4.4.4 gpt.bin, and I shouldn't have. If I'm right, is there any way to recover from this?

I crashed my S3 using camera on old cm12.1 and got into loop with services stopped. Try and D/L the new 4 22 and Slim ggaps 20150422 wipe chache and devik and reinstall cm and ggaps get it working this is what I did but I haven't read any info except to find a file for Odin but don't think you can use Odin. It be nice to have stable way to downgrade. The flash will hopefully get your phone working.

Thank you. But I can't flash a cm12.1 atm (see my post below). I can only flash through fastboot. I'm not sure I properly understood you, what do you call 4 22 ?

FYI I managed to boot again. Here's what I did:
Flash a 5.x ROM, try to boot to let the system make partitions and stuff (I think)
Boot in TWRP and saw that system and cache were not mountable, so I wiped them.
Flash a cm12.1 (+ Gapps) and here we go!
Thank you for your help!

[Q] Bootloop after flashing custom ROM. Fastboot and recovery still working.

Hey, so I just bought a Moto G LTE and got very excited about the amount of dev going on here (coming from an LG Optimus F6 which has almost none). Right way I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. So far so good. Then I flashed TWRP recovery and everything seemed fine. I downloaded the ParanoidAndroid ROM and flashed it, and the phone got stuck in a bootloop (with the PA boot animation). I then went back into recovery, did a reset and flashed BlissPop. Same issue (bootloop is now in the BP boot animation).
So now I'm not sure what to do. I can still get into recovery. I selected factory reset through recovery, and on the top of the screen it says "Factory Reset Complete", but on the log it says "Updating partition details..." and just stays like that. Rebooting just takes me back to the bootloop (still with the BlissPop animation).
Anyone have a clue what could be wrong here? Is there a way to check if there's anything I messed up along the way?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello welcome, i think you will like this device.
First off, what exact version is it? the XT1039, XT1040?
Anyway. To flash a custom ROM you will need to:
Go to TWRP. Select Wipe and then Advanced wipe.
Then you check:
Dalvik Cache
Cache
Data
System
Internal Storage
Usually afrer come from Stock KK to any CM12 based or AOSP ROM from android 5.x you will need to wipe Internal Storage, something that factory Reset just wont do.
Then you will flash/install
Your Prefered ROM (Paranoid Android is great, BlissPop as well. I'm using Euphoria, another great ROM)
Flash the GAAPs (preferable the one who the dev of the ROM you have chosen say to)
And done. Reboot your device.

Hey, thanks so much for the reply!
I'm not sure which exact version it is, is there a way to check without having to boot the phone?
I did the advanced wipe, however now when I click reboot it says "No OS Installed! Are you sure you want to reboot?" Now that I wiped the internal storage how do I flash the ROM (it was saved there and is now deleted)?
Thanks again.

You must always put the OS flash zip on a MicroSD card.
How ever you can put the USB cable on the PC at TWRP and it should reconize your phone so you can make a file transfer
YOu have done a nanobackup on a micro SD of your KitKat?
If you can't put the rom on a microSD Card (but i really advise you to do) or your PC wont see your phone on TWRP to copy the ROM there...
There is ADB Push
http://www.themobimag.com/install-rom-using-adb/

Good idea to use a microSD, don't know why I didn't think of that. I re-flashed from the SD and now everything works! Thanks so much for your help, really appreciate it!

No problem m8, hope you enjoy the device

On an unrelated note: the one thing I love about my old phone is the stock music app. Is it possible to port it onto this one? I got the APK but when I try to install it it just says "Application not installed". Does this mean it's not possible to use it?

[SOLVED ]"Patching system image unconditionally..." - can't install CM at all.

[SOLVED ]"Patching system image unconditionally..." - can't install CM at all.
my device (moto G (falcon) XT1032) is a GPE device.
in the last 2 days i tried to install CM 13 on my device.
i tried 3 different recoveries** - CWM, TWRP and CM recovery - to install cm-13.0-20160206-NIGHTLY-falcon (and yes, i checked before flashing, the SHA1).
in all those tryouts i always get into the sentence in the headline - Patching system image unconditionally... - and it just stays there forever.
one time i waited 40 minutes, and it still stayed on this message, and do nothing.
every time before flashing the rom, i wiped the device (dalvik cache, cache, system, Data).
i also try to flash the latest snapshot (cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K9-falcon) because i thought maybe there is a problem with the latest nightly.
i still stuck in the same stage(Patching system image unconditionally...).
i also try to flash stock rom 4.4.4 from motorola (from here: http://goo.gl/xAomMi) which succeeded, and then wipe device(factory reset and wipe dalvik cache, cache, system, Data) and install again cm-13.0-20160206-NIGHTLY-falcon, and it also didn't work.
i'm still get into the same message and stay there forever.
thanks for any help

before i tried to flash CM couple of days ago, i follow steps from CM wiki, and part of them is to unlock the bootloader.
here are the orders i followed(although it's for a different device (moto g 4g)), it worked great:
https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_peregrine#Unlocking_the_device
if i get into fastboot mode (volume down + power) it tells me in yellow line: Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3.
i also have root access.

Wifi and bluetooth not working in R7 plusf

I run CM 13 and want to back to color os because it is not run so smooth. I format and then flash stock recovery image (then recovery) via twrp and reboot to stock recovery.
In stock recovery i wipe data and cache. That's problem come. Before finish, the screen goes black. I try to power on the device, back to wipe data then the screen goes to black again. I try to boot to recovery and fastboot but it remain the same, back to wipe data and then the screen goes to black..
I try repair it using msm tool but because my comp not recognize the device, i use QFIL. And then i can use the fastboot to boot stock recovery. Suceed. But no os inside. Try and error many times, i can power on the device at the end.
But now the other problem comes. My wifi and bluetooth not work. And message nv backup appear.
Flash project spectrum. Wifi and bluetooth work. I flash back to stock os. Wifi and bluetooth not work again..
May someone help me to solve the problem (make bluetooth and wifi work again)?

To get back to ColorOS from spectrum flash this rom from internal storage.

I think your initial problem was that you didn't flash open Gapps right after you flashed CM13.
Most users who are new to custom roms don't know that they have to flash Google apps separately.

Did you boot into CM after flashing CM? and then installed Gapps later on? This could explain corrupted cache.
Always follow these steps on custom roms. (first time install not upgrade)
Boot into TWRP, select wipe/factory reset.
1. Install CM Rom
after that select the next zip (or add more zips to flash)
2. install Gapps.
Let it boot and setup your phone.
If you follow this you will never have a problem in CM.
Especially the R7 series. Every change to the code is closely tripled (even quadruple) checked by devs.
Because the R5, R7, R7Plus, R7S all share the same base and its tested in on every phone.

Yes. I wipe all but not the internal storage. Is it the cause? I do not know why twrp cannot read otg. So i put CM file on internal storage.

I don't know about the R7Plus TWRP. I don't maintain that TWRP. I know that my R7S TWRP works with OTG.
Internal storage should have been fine. I think it will stay a mystery why you received those errors.

Once back on ColorOs from Spectrum. Flash this older version of ColorOs and then CM everything including bluetooth should work fine.

Which method fixed the issue in the end?

Maybe bad repaired or bad flashing. Persist folder is empty. Thats why i can not install CM and unvailable wifi and bluetooth address. So flashing persist.img after remove the old one.

Black Screen Blue LED

I just unlocked my boootloader today after waiting the 14 days. First thing I did was install twrp recovery, had no problem there. Then I downloaded unofficial lineage os 14 rom, and the newest open gapps.
I was able to fastboot boot into twrp recovery, I then wiped dalvik, system, data, and cache. then proceeded to install lineage os rom, no problem, when I tried to install gapps, it just hung on detecting device and rom. which I had to reboot. then it came up to black screen with blue led. again I rebooted into twrp recovery, wiped again, and this time just installed lineage os rom, and reboot,same thing black screen with blue led. did I miss a step somewhere?

If you were on stock mm or below s244 stock then it's normal to see this..

Install s244 firmware and then install los.

In trying to fix my own problem I may have screwed it up more. I changed the file system of the Systema nd Data partitions. I changed it to EXT4, however that did not help. I would like to change them back to whatever they were before, but I dont know what they were before, can anyone help me?

Don't messup with system partition plax..

I had the same issue. Try an other Gapps pack. I picked a smaler one and it worked.
Yes it was that easy

So i installed the S244 Firmware, installed twrp and even got stock rom+magisk root to work. I passed safetynet test. But i can't flash custom roms+gapps. It freezes in twrp.
I already tried alls opengapps versions, from pico until micro. None of them worked. My system partition is ext4, same as data.
My twrp version is 3.1.1-1
