Guys be careful when trying the new nightly, I cannot revert back to stock, won't let me fastboot flash any firmware.. Now I'm stuck on Cyanogenmod

I think you cant revert to lower android versions right now because of changed partitions oder something like that... im not sure whats the problem! restore with cwm should help but it's a temporal fix

Eh? I've just tried flashing SlimKat 4.2.2 to see if I can flash over with stock but when it boots I get encryption unsuccessful?

sorry buddy

OK so now we have stock 4.4.4.. How can I downgrade without issues??? Or flash 4.4.4 has anyone got the full 4.4.4 firmware?

I also was struggeling to downgrade. But after flashing the latest CM nightly i was able to downgrade to 4.4.2 while skipping gpt.bin and motoboot.img. Do know why it was like that.
I have a Moto G (XT1032) running 4.4.4 GPE, and it will not update to Andoid 5.0.1 GPE. I go to install the update, and then it powers off and boots to recovery mode and says this:
Code:
PhilZ Touch 6.55.0
ClockworkmodMod v6.0.5.0

I honestly have no idea what to do as my device is running 4.4.4 not 4.4.2 and it even says my build number is right in About Phone.

Try flashing stock GPE recovery on your device.

I'll give it a try, although I've done that once.

I have flashed the stock recovery, I'm now waiting for the notification to update to 5.0.1 and after that I'll get back to you.
I have the same problem with the german 5.0.2 retail update.
Strange error, i only flashed 4.4.2 manually some time ago. 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 were OTA updates.
Did flashing the stock recovery work? Unfortunately i haven't enough time at the moment to test it myself.
Flashing stock recovery has not worked, although I have never had nor have flashed 4.4.2

Damn it.
I don't really understand this. We updated from and to different versions and got the exact same problem.
I know, it's really weird. In wondering if anyone else on XDA is having this problem

Did you try updating all apps using the Play Store? I had to update my Moto apps before I could get the 5.02 update for my xt1032.
I'll give it a try

Didn't work, it's still giving me a status 7.

It's not worth trying to upgrade to lollipop unless your phone is rooted.
My phone is rooted

A rooted phone may not take the ota update properly. Try unrooting first.
I'll give it a try later today, thanks!
