[Q] [help] Trying to flash a custom ROM to moto g, getting "bootloader not supported"
My moto g is XT1031, the Boost Mobile version.
I've tried to flash CM, BlissPop ROM, flexOS, and others. I always get "Bootleader not supported. Operation Aborted".
I want to flash a custom ROM because Boost Mobile never pushed out lollipop, and I want to try it out. This is not my primary phone, and is only used on Wi-Fi.
My Moto G is Rooted (I have the SuperSU app) and the bootloader is unlocked (Get the warning message on boot).
I'm flashing via Clockwork mod revocery 6.0.4.7
Any help is strongly appreciated.
Thanks.
By the way, this is the exact message:
This package supports bootloader(s): 0x4118, 0x4119, 0x411A; this device has bootloader 0x4113.
(Status 7)
Operation Aborted.
I was able to flash Cyanogenmod 11 Snapshot M6 Falcon, but not sure what to do after that. It seems that the bootloader is not compatible with Lollipop?

You have two options
1- Either update your bootloader to lollipop one which is 41.19 for cdma variants
2-Edit the updater script and metadata file of rom to allow you to flash the rom
First method is risky but better because you dont have to edit the updater scrip of every rom you wanna flash

I have the links to bootloader for gsm variants but not CDMA
I am asking someone experienced that is @matmutant, so please wait for a day
Till then I will tell you how to edit the updater script and metadata (credits to @wskelly )
Extract the zip and go to
META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
META-INF/com/android/metadata
Alter the files as shown in the screenshots.
You will see the flickering/jumping of the screen on the first boot, but this will go away after you turn the screen off and then on once.
Screenshots are here

I found the download for bootloader 41.19 CDMA. Found here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934538145
I then flashed it via clockwork mod and then was able to flash BlissPop 5.1.1. All is working fine now, except the screen in clockwork mod has a flashing line. No big deal though, this doesn't impact the actual OS.
Thanks again for your help.

You have flickering screen in CWM recovery because it is based on kitkat bootloader
To remove
Just flash the latest TWRP by @h2o64 from xda ( not from official site )
Or try this unofficial Philz

Hey Guys, bought my phone in Australia at retail. It's running 4.3 JB. I've already unlocked the bootloader and installed a recovery. Now I want to run KitKat. I checked and there's no OTA, it says I'm already up to date. I don't care about the dual sim at all as I only have one sim (it's actually quite annoying having two icons in the statusbar).
Can I just go and install any Moto G KitKat ROM onto the phone and it will work? Is it better to have the official OTA so that it updates the radios before installing a custom KitKat ROM? Do the radios matter? Will I brick my XT1033 if I install a ROM for XT1031, XT1032 etc. ?
Just asking before I kill the phone.
Thanks guys
Single SIM ROMs are not compatible with dual chip XT1033.
From what I have read there is only 2 options:
1. unlock the phone and load en.GB 4.3 ROM and wait for the 4.4 kitkat update on it
2. CM11 by dhacker29 - Read first post about the details about how to flash to XT1033 where you need to flash a modem as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2608377
Whatever you do, make sure you do a backup of the stock ROM as I don't see Australian ROM in the stock images thread yet. So if you need to go back you can safely restore. To Restore from CM11 you need to flash the old modem as well that is in the same thread.
There are no cases of bricking so far that I am aware of. Also you could try fastboot flashing* the en.GB 4.4.2 firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49861244&postcount=101
*mfastboot may be required.
EDIT: You should be aware that flashing the GB firmware also includes the GB Modem/Radio firmware. If you notice data/wifi/coverage issues after flashing, this may be the reason. There is currently on AU firmware image you can restore with.
Excluding the following commands should allow you to retain the AU Modem/Radio firmware:
flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
erase modemst1
erase modemst2
flash fsg fsg.mbn

I downloaded and uncompressed android 4.3 firmware - Blur_Version.14.71.8.falcon_umts.Retail.en.GB from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
then ran the "flash-all.bat" script. Rebooted and then did the OTA update. A single (primary) sim works no issues, and my model number now says XT1032 instead of XT1033.
I'm sure you'd get the same result by just flashing straight Android 4.4.2 for Great Britain - Blur_Version.174.44.9.falcon_umts.Retail.en.GB
I only need one sim anyway, so it works well for me. then I make lots of modifications with Xposed.

I am really curious so I'll try this. Downloading "Blur_Version.174.44.9.falcon_umts.Retail.en.GB" and will report back, worst case I just run the stock flash all again (Blur_Version.14.85.4.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03) now that I know there's no risk

I used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Changed the filenames for these commands to reflect the files in the folder:
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
to
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
It is rebooting now.
Boot animations works [OK]
"Preparing Device - Please Wait..." [OK]
Choose Language (KK style!) [OK]
So far I only have one SIM card working with only one set of icons at the top and it has successfully connected to Vodafone AU (YES!)
Wifi network detected [OK]
OK everything is running! WiFi is working, phone is now running 4.4.2 KitKat! Just called myself and it worked!
THANKS GUYS
I will follow up later on. First thing I'll try is recovery, root, xposed framework and see if I can change the battery icon to show percentage (this wasn't possible on the JB ROM but I suspected because of the dual sim and likely a different SystemUI.apk
I had trouble rooting but then just used this flashable zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2585755 and it got there.
I installed Xposed and everything worked as expected, using gravity box I changed the battery to one with a percentage and reduced the navigation bars to 70% (gives more screen real estate). Using the Google Experience Launcher, Google Keyboard and enabling ART has made this device a bit closer to my Nexus 4 which the screen broke on, so I'm very happy with this device.
Now I just need to work out how to get rid of the carrier name in the status bar (VODAFONE AU takes up a lot of room :silly
EDIT: Thanks Moto X community http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.penree.android.xposed.hidecarriermotox now it's gone

I think you should be waiting for general thread for moto G dual sim, and also they will create another rom for it.
I use Q10 now, bored with android :victory:
I flashed Google Play edition 4.4.2 ROM on my XT1033 + added Xposed GravityMod. Gives me 90% of what Cyanogenmod does so I am pretty happy.

How do you find the Play Edition compared to the Motorola version of KitKat? Pretty much the same thing just without the Motorola apps, settings, sounds and wallpaper?
I'm really happy with the Motorola software but wouldn't mind putting the Play edition on if it's much better

Its not that much different.
The main issues i have with moto edition is that there is no internet calling in dialer (This is for VOIP accounts - Moto removed it from the Moto G for some reason and most 3rd party apps suck compared to native VOIP calling)
Minor issues (Nothing that can't be fixed with root)
- hidious career label in status bar (in en.GB 4.2.2)
- ugly dual SIM 2 signal bars wasting space on the status bar + 3G/H+ icon
- No useless Motorola apps that I don't need
Whats better in Moto ROM
- Camera App (GPE has no HDR)
- FM Radio (not in GPE)
- Faster file system (but this is barely noticable, GPE feels the same speed for me)
Is it ok to update to kitkat from 4.3? Ive only just tried it and says update available
Hi all!
I'm a brand new owner of a Moto G XT1032, bought it on Amazon and got it today!
I've read the faqs and the resource guide, but I still don't know:
Is it possible to root this model number? And if yes, which method is best?
(I know I'd need to unlock the boot loader first)
I ask this because in the resource guide it's written that there is no supporting custom recovery for this variant and I don't understand if I can get root or not.
Thanks!
And forgive my English.
All versions are working.
In prefere PhilZ Recovery.
Just unlock Bootloader, flash PhilZ Recovery install SuperSU, done.

There are no features to unlock.
Just follow my link above and flash this recovery.
You can read here how zou can flash.
Before that you have to unlock Bootloader.
You also might use the search function.

Hey, so i want to root my Moto G XT1033 16GB dual SIM running android 5.0.2.
I've bricked a smarthone before while trying to root it, so i want some help to root my phone the safest way possible. My warranty has already expired.
Obs: my phone is from brazil, i'm not sure if that changes anything.
I've attatched a screenshot if any other info is needed.
If you have a custom recovery installed you can flash it from there. Go here and grab SuperSU and follow the instructions.

Hi,
I got my Moto G 2015 XT1541 running with Android 5.1.1 official rom and TWRP Osprey 3.0.0 R2. I just got the official message to upgrade to Marshmallow, but when I to upgrade TWRP comes with the following error: Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
I've placed a full log here: recovery.log
I also tried installing an other OTA file - (2GB Retail EU OTA): Download - thanks to @Osid - from here, but got the same error.
Also, the official update is version 24.41.33.en.EU, and the above file 23.41.47 and is already on my phone, according to "About Phone".
Anyway: Can someone please help me to get past this error and update to the official 24.41.33.en.EU? I've read about changing an updater-script file in the zip if you have one, but this is a block.map.
Thanks allot!

Both update methods, as described above, fail. Method 1: using the phone's system updater, method 2: using the official(?) OTA upgrade files provided on this site.
But it looks like the OTA file is of a version I already have. See attachment.
Sorry, I misread your reply. I am looking for the stock recovery now keep you posted.

Ok, I took the recovery.img from "XT1541_OSPREY_RETEU_2GB_5.1.1_LPI23.72-33_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml", my version was 23.72-47. Hope that doesn't really matter. But is was the only 2GB European ROM I could find here.
So I used fastboot to flash that and tried the system update again. At the beginning it looked hopeful; It was showing the Installing System Update with the progress bar, but then briefly the error icon and rebooted without making any changes.
If I need to re-lock and/or un-root to fix this, can it be don without wiping everything?
Thanks again!
