I recently upgraded my Moto G 4G XT1039 Retail GB from 4.4.4 to CM11 and then to CM12.1. Now that Motorola is releasing an official version soon, I'd like to downgrade to stock in preparation. Is it safe to downgrade from CM12.1 to Stock 4.4.4? My bootloader is still the old version (4113).
Never mind, I downgraded from CM 12.1 to CM 11 and then flashed stock and I was good to go!

Best option for timely official updates is XT1032 Google Play Edition (GPe). But not all custom ROMs are compatible with GPe (as seen with the current 5.0.x custom ROMs).
If only "all custom ROMs supported" is the concern, then any (non-GPe) XT1032 will do. Like US-Retail, UK-Retail, European, Brazilian, Argentinian, etc.
(Actually, all XT1032 are inter-convertible.)
falcon is the name for all 1st gen moto g, XT1028 to XT1034. But actually, its the XT1032 on which custom ROMs are built.. Only later they are made compatible with other versions. So, we can assume falcon to be XT1032.
Also, I've noticed that US-Retail XT1032 (also the one I own) gets the official updates from Motorola (not talking about "Soak Tests") , a little bit earlier than other regions.

Is it possible to get back from 5.0.1 GPE to 4.4.4 GPE and then from 4.4.4 GPE back to Retail 4.4.4?
I have Lollipop now, but I think its not so stable like KitKat, it has many compatibility problems with some App and so I decide to go back to Retail, because I don't really like the GPE Version of the Moto G, some APPs are not included and I think I miss the "old" KitKat.

Yeah I already tried the second link.
Recently I started using a Droid Mini which is now unlocked and rooted with stock Verizon 4.4.4. SU4.21.
I like kitkat for now and could even live with the stock rom, maybe with xposed/gravity, but I just discovered the 'LTE bug' which prevents use of sms/voice on LTE on a non-verizon service. I disabled LTE and everything works fine but I would prefer to get LTE working properly with 4.4.4.
If there is still no fix for the LTE bug with stock 4.4.4, what is a good working kitkat rom that solves the problem? Topsnake's 4.4.4, CM 11, or one of the Moto X ports? I read another XT1030 user say he was using Krypton Moto X port now but I am assuming for the XT1030 you need specific audio, screen size or other patches?
Hi. I am in really desperate need of some help. I have a Verizon Moto G XT1028PP. I am in need of the original stock rom. This particular phone is from the earlier batch that was released with Android 4.4.2. I have tried several roms but errors show up when flashing the gpt.bin and especially the motoboot.img One of those roms was the CFC Falcon 4.4
2. Any and all help is appreciated. I am looking forward to hearing from someone real soon.
XT1028 Stock ROMs are available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688

Where can I download Verizon Lollipop ROM for Motog G1?
There is a lot of buzz about 5.0.1 being released in the US for all Moto g phones OTA but how do I manually get this release? I am on Page Plus with a modified Boost Mobile phone and I am not getting the update ota. Has the Lollipop version for CDMA services been released, where?
cchriscollins-
I am in the same situation with same device on PP. I am rooted on 4.4.4. Motorola site still says coming soon.

I am happy with 4.4.4 on the Moto G and just ok with 5.2 on a rooted 1st gen Nexus 7. It has to be restarted every day or so b/c of memory leaks and lagging.
Years ago I bought and unlocked a falcon xt1028 for my elderly mother, tried out a few cm-based ROMs, then and ended up having her run the stock Android v5.1 (lollipop).
The installed baseband is: MSM8626BP_1032.390.81.01P vzw_cust
It also has TWRP v2.8.7.0 installed.
My questions: Do I have the most recent official firmware, and can anyone recommend a very stable custom ROM that's more current (nougat?) and compatible with this old CDMA device?
Thanks!
