Hi friends, i have a moto g 4g xt1040, android 4.4 KitKat. I have some questions about root:
About unlock bootloader... its very risky? on the website of Motorola warn of extreme risks.
1. If i install a custom rom, I will not have problems returning to Stock Rom? (using cmd commands like any tutorial)
2. If my device is rooted, and I get notification to upgrade to android lollipop, I can install it correctly without problems?
3. if my phone has lollipop, and i rooting, I can do a downgrade?
SORRY for my very bad english I had help from google translate :silly:
Thanks and best regards. :good:
Hi!
You can unlock your bootloader without problems.
I didn't have problems to return to a ROM stock.
You can update to Lollipop if you are under ROM stock, or you can install CM!
I don't know about the downgrade but I think it is possible.

Hey guys!
I recently updated to 5.0.3 by OTA and Rooted my phone.
But I do regret that, there's many things dont work on Lollipop (I miss you xposed).
So, i thought downgrade to 4.4.4, but theres so many people saying I will brick my phone or the downgrade will not work correctly, so I want to flash CM11 on my phone.
The question is: Will my phone work fine? or I will get the same risk than downgrading to 4.4.4?
Anyone already did that?
Thanks.
I got the phone very recently, been using a rooted Sony Walkman Live for years, so I am kinda habituated to rooted devices. But, I bricked the HTC trying to root it (probably wiped system by mistake when trying to fix the root, it was showing no os installed). Now thanks to the master thread of RUU,TWRP,OTA I got the phone working, but had to downgrade it to android 4.4.2 using TWRP backup. The root wasn't working on lollipop but seem to be working fine now and all, but I want to upgrade to lollipop. What's the best way to do it because I can't risk bricking the phone again. So a detailed direction is welcomed. Thank you all
I had a LG G3 but it broke down. I got a Droid Ultra from a friend and i got surprised! First time I have a Motorola phone. I thought I was getting a crappy phone but It runs perfectly fine.
I want to root and install a custom recovery so that i could flash a Lollipop ROM. I've been reading some threads but I'm quite confused about what I should do first. I want to be able to run a Rooted Lollipop ROM on it. I've read some threads about rooting for the build SU6-7 but mine has SU6-7.2.
If any of you could please tell me what I should do first, I'd be more than grateful.
The phone is unrooted (checked with Root Checker).
Android version: 4.4.4 build SU6-7.2
System version 24.13.2.obake_verizon.Verizon.en.US

Okay, so here's the deal:
You can root (to some degree) using CrashXXL's method found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-ultra/general/droid-mini-maxx-ultra-root-pogress-100-t3071609
or his other method found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-ultra/general/crashx-t3220408
Keep in mind though that neither of these root methods disables write protection so you will not be able to flash a custom recovery or install a custom rom.
At the moment there is no full true root/bootloader unlock for the Droid Maxx/Ultra/Mini on 4.4.4 su6/su6-7.2

Your welcome. And sad to say but there is no way to get Lollipop on your phone with a locked bootloader.
hello everyone.
I have a moto g xt 1033 which is an Indian variant as 1033 stats. It is currently running on 5.0.2. I once tried to jailbreak my phone( get root access), but I failed to do so(I think). because i checked after the procedure by root checker app and it said ROOT ACCESS IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED ON THIS DEVICE. So i cant update my device to marshmellow. Actually I have no idea whether to root it again and then unroot or directly flash it manually with stock or how. Any help here will be much appreciated.
thanks in advance:
Follow flashing instructions exactly, in first post of this thread, and you will be running rooted Stock Marshmallow:
[ROM][FALCON][6.0][STOCK] Identity Crisis 6 v1.4b
I have rooted and unlocked my bootloader in asus zenfone 2 laser Z00ld and tried to install a custom rom. But the rom didnt install so i had to install official stock lollipop 5.0.2 rom.
Now i am having problem with this rom. Hangs a lot. Battery drains too fast. Sometimes the front speaker gets activated while playing music.
So now I want to revert back to the factory rom that i got at first.
1. Is it possible to get back to the official rom????
2. is it possible to get the official software updates from company after relocking the bootloader and unrooting the fone???
I am not a noob. But i am just scared of doing the unrooting process as already i hardbricked an yureka plus which was just 2 days old.
So anyone please help me with the solutions.. :crying::crying:

Greetings and welcome to assist. I'm not sure where you would get the original rom from but yes you should be able to return to it and once you are unrooted you should be able to take ota's
Good luck
