Nice! Now we just need kernel source I believe then developers can get their hands dirty (well, after making a proper TWRP).
Hope so very soon
Thanks for the files.
@Devhux TWRP is already posted in original dev section.

1st of all: thx for uploading!
secondly: the name of the original FW for the 1562 is called "XT1562_LUX_RETASIA_DS_5.1.1_LPD23.118-12_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip"
What about the "RETASIA" part, this kinda makes me wonder whether this might be intended for some kind of Asian version of the X. But I'm in Germany and also got the 1562. Will this work, regardless?
Best wishes derelektrischemoench
Which one of these is for the Wind variant XT1563?

Hi @derelektrischemoench, I am based in France and got an X Play from retail and the original firmware does say RETASIA so I assume you should have no issue.

I tried and did not work! Does not work the slot! when I bought worked with the ORIGINAL STOCK ROM that came with unit , bought it in BRAZIL
can someone upload this to another place? i download at 24kbs from file factory.
Does anybody know why firmware for EU is missing? I guess I could use Asia one, but just in case I wanted to go back to stock.
I'm positive it was there before when thread was first posted. Maybe they were accidentally removed (just guessing)

Hey guys,
Can someone post a step by step "for dummies" guide to flashing the stock unbranded firmware to over right the UK Tesco firmware?
I've already downloaded the unbranded UK RETAIL firmware and unlocked my phone to use in other networks, that's as far as I've got.
Not looking to root or anything else, just to apply the stock unbranded firmware so that I can get future updates from Motorola and not Tesco.
Thanks.
You need to unlock the bootloader, then either use RSD Lite or fastboot flash the images in the archive.
Give that, from the FAQ, the 'adb' access seems to work with the Moto G would the 'adb sideload' method not work? I assume this would avoid the need to unlock the bootloader.

This seems to work via fastboot untill I get to the system.img files, they all fail when I try to flash them in order, or if I just try to flash one system.img as a whole.
I have also tried using the RSD tool, the phone is recognised when plugged in & booted up normally, after you select the .xml & click start it reboots to fastboot then can no longer see the device so the flash fails.
Unable to get the tool to see the phone if I manually reboot to fastboot first.
Any Ideas? Im guessing that manually flashing via fastboot is the only way, but cant get that 3 part system.img to install

Coming from a nexus, I thought that also, but I'm sure on another thread it is mentioned that ADB sideload only applies to OTA update files.
I tried pushing the whole zip to the phone but as expected it did nothing.
Fastboot flash should work but the bootloader won't give permission so something isn't right.
Although on the instructions from motorola website it says not to use android fastboot, but use RSD tool instead. I have 2 potential issus with that #1 the software itself hasn't been updated to support the MotoG or #2 it wont work with my 64bit copy of windows 7.
You need too bit the phone into BP Tools mode from fastboot for RSD Lite if you haven't been

Yep, tried that the 1st time you posted it, still no luck.
I have noticed that after every reboot the usb debugging has switched itself off, could this be causing the permission problem?
Paul over at Modaco has created a root tool (says so on his twitter).
not sure if that will be any help in applying a stock Retrail rom on the Tesco phones. he also says RSD should work?
hope you guys can figure it out .

We have 6.22 GiB of firmwares for Motorola Motorola G.
Actually, it seems the South American firmwares are pachaged , and named, differently. They're specifically labelled beginning with fastboot, and the archives let you expand to a directory giving you a single image for system.img The only one of interest to me is Brazil - I wonder will the Brazil system image work instead of the GB, FR or DE retail devices. If we get root I suppose we can edit build prop.
There has to be a way of concatenating the system images in the European retail images?
I wonder is this

Hello guys,
I just quickly need your help,
I am currently trying to flash back the Stock Firmware, by using the firmware provided here:http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
My device is a 210.12.40.falcon_umts.Retail.en.GB
But the problem is that there are two 4.4.3 firmwares only, now I am not 100% sure which one to chose and if it is even safe to downgrade from 4.4.4.
I would appreciate your advice
Thank you

First of all, thank you very much.
I just want to reverse the System folder back to stock, because the rest works fine.
Would it be possible just to enter:
Code:
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
Without doing the rest?
Yeah, that should be enough.

I am using this to downgrade from 5.0.2 official lollipop preview to 4.4.4, but I am getting an error:
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
Why? I can't understand.
Did it manually instead of using .bat, and the radios don't work for either of my SIM cards. The SIMs are listed as "disabled" under "Dual SIM settings". Tried to turn on the radio via the hidden menu to no avail. Flashing the modem again didn't help :/
Any help please?
5.0.2 was install in my mobile and its was working gr8 but from two day i facing wifi on/off problem i cant turn it on, so i downgrade with your batch file and now i have 4.4.4 stock and wifi working fine. thanks for your help and post,
i want to upgrade 5.0.2 or 5.1 any help ?
thanks again
This downgrade will also work if I am currently on lollipop 5.1 (unrooted and bootloader locked) ?
I know the post says XT1022, but I wonder if this would work with XT1021 too? The only difference between the 2 phones is that mine (XT1021) is not dual-sim.
worked for me
I'm on CM 12.1 Lollipop (5.1.1)...
Is it ok to try it?
With your cmd line flashing sequence guide I easily downgraded from CM12 (5.1.1) to stock KitKat mate - many thanks for your effort!

Did u find a way to revert back to kit Kat?
hey
no, sorry
i´m waiting for the answers
Just flash the 4.4.4 firmware via fastboot, using the following commands:
Code:
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
Use only this commands, absolutely DON'T flash gpt.bin and motoboot.bin, or you'll end bricking your device.
mfastboot download link: https://mega.co.nz/#!xgYkgI6I!E4MkiSwCm1AS4qor5xP8QTNeL-BAFZLrV9JDCIlBImM
I have successfully downgraded from 5.0.2 Retail DE to 4.4.4 Retail DE this way. The line glitch is due to a compatibility issue between kitkat kernel and lollipop bootloader, but it isn't so annoying, you only have to lock and unlock your device only once after every reboot. BTW I think that a hard reset will solve most of the problems you've faced on lollipop, I haven't experienced any of the issues you're talking about.
hello and thanks for your answer
why is there a different way for downgrade between yours and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/restore-to-kitkat-lollipop-moto-g-t3011553 ???
whats the different?
and what about the adb drivers. it must be installed first, saw on a video? i don´t need it for downgrade? i have a "minimal adb+fastboot setup.exe"!
what is behind ...... don´t flash gpt.bin and motoboot.bin...?
and i did a hard reset after update to 502, but have still some bugs
sorry for all my questions, i´m a bit careful
The partition layout may be different between KK and LP; therefore, I would recommend flashing gpt.bin.
You won't be able to flash motoboot.bin because your phone probably has the 41.18 bootloader which cannot be downgraded.
When you downgrade to KK, you will see a line running from the top to the bottom of the screen. It looks like it is rippling. Don't worry, this is happening because your are running KK on a LP bootloader. To get rid of the rippling, just lock and unlock the phone using the power button.
If you flash to stock KK and run the OTA update to 5.02, the rippling will go away because you'll be running stock LP on a LP bootloader.
Hello and thanks for answer, but you say its recommend to flash GPT and the other member said DON'T. so two different answers,. What happened if i flash and don't flash???
You can try to install the ROM without flash gpt.bin.
When going from GPE to non-GPE and vice versa, gpt.bin had to be flashed.
Hey audit13
Thanks for answer but i don't understand what you mean. What is gpe ?non gpe? Vice versa? No plan, sorry
Gpe means google play edition and non gpe means non Google play edition
---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------
As there are many threads about downgrading
So Im very much confused
Can anyone help me with the best way
If yes then it will be needfull to me

GPE = Google Play Edition
Non-GPE = Stock ROM
GPE uses the ext4 file system for data.
Non-GPE uses f2fs for data.
Flashing GPT.bin is recommended, in my experience, when going from GPE to non-GPE and vicer versa.

OK guys, i did it without flashing bootloader and GPT and it works. Thanks for Helping me :good:
I take no credit for this, thank the Motorola-Firmware-Team on Android File Host, and you can follow any leaked firmware on their Twitter feed.
I no longer have a Moto X Pure Edition, so I can't personally vouch for this firmware, but it seems like it is a totally legit full factory firmware image of Nougat NPH25.200-22 for flashing in fastboot.
This is the "official" full factory image of Nougat NPH25.200-22 and NOT the OTA file. It can be used for a clean flash and to relock the bootloader which is recommended to pass SafetyNet API checks if you are planning on staying stock and not rooting.
Flashfile.xml shows: version="clark_retus-user 7.0 NPH25.200-22 21 release-keysM8992_1255331.29.01.88.09R", MD5 matches, and all dates are correct.
This is ONLY for the Moto X Pure Edition, Retail US (RETUS) variant. I have no information on any other firmware or device.
Tested and verified as official Nougat factory ROM image by @Andromendous
This image is NOT flashable in TWRP, like all factory images it is flashed with fastboot in the bootloader... How to flash:
Code:
fastboot oem lock begin (if wanting to re-lock bootloader, othewise use `fastboot oem fb_mode_set`)
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem lock (only if you used `fastboot oem lock begin`, otherwise end with `fastboot oem fb_mode_clear`)
fastboot reboot

@acejavelin: Since you have been one of the guru's on this phone, can this file be flashed in fastboot directly if I am on stock MM android December update rooted with Magisk and TWRP installed? I just want to make sure that when I am ready to take the plunge, I can take the minimal work procedure since I factory wipe after all major updates anyway.
Does this mean people who haven't received 7.0 OTA can flash this ROM and get Nougat without any complications such as corrupted bootloader and stuff? Also read multiple times that downgrading to 6.0 and again upgrading to 7.0 via OTA corrupts the bootloader leading to hard brick (which is now solver using external SD), will flashing this would solve this too?
Yes... This is the pure stock factory image for Nougat, it can be flashed, used to lock the bootloader, fix the "preflash validation" issues, etc. like any factory image.
There should be no issue applying it over a downgraded version, as long as you flash the entire image.

Great! I plan on holding on to this phone for about another 6 months or so and might as well get the update. Will probably go over to stock nougat in December. Custom ROMs just always seem to have at best some minor issue(s) that prevents me from sticking with them.
Dude Ace you are the f-ing man. Thanks for the find.
I flashed it manually while on Hashbangs LOS rom. I was stuck on 6.0 modem and tried to just flash the modem, which made me lose sim service. I then flashed the entire imagine manually and booted just fine.
Now I'm back to LOS with 7.0 modem and so far so good. Hashbang is doing a great job, he's already cleaned multiple bugs just today.
i am already on 7.0 but putting this away for the future. Can you flash the zipped XML or do you need to unzip and flash each piece individually? Thanks.

It's a factory image... Have to flash each piece manually with fastboot, this is not a flashable TWRP or other recovery image
So no difference between flashing this and a possible future OTA update one? I downgraded from custom 7.1 to stock 6 and now been weeks waiting for this 7 OTA update which probably wont even see the 2017.

We don't know that for sure... NPH25.200-22 is what has been rolling out to Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T devices, but it seems that Verizon users are getting NPH25.200-23 according to one verified (via screen shot) report on Lenovo's official forum.
The issue is we know the Moto OTA server keeps track of what device get's what version, if you flash this it won't know you have it so if a future OTA update comes out, you might be offered it via push and will have to wait until it's available by pull.

Yes. There's a huge difference. With this you wont brick your phone.
Can we Re-lock bootloader with this version?
AND...
If you flash this version NPH25.200-23, will you still be able to install a SIM from another carrier, say Sprint, T-Mobile, or AT&T, and not be pigeon holed into a specific wireless Plan from VZW with their own Propietary APPs like VZW Cloud?

Yes, you can relock... unless you have already applied NPH25.200-23, otherwise you should be able to relock from ANY version out there currently.
We don't know what's up with NPH25.200-23 for sure though... recently Moto has been doing "different" versions for Verizon users that don't seem to get to anyone else, we also see it in the Moto G5+, and we don't know the differences either. Most likely it's just a minor VZW specific change and can be ignored. If the update does get pushed later, you should have no issues taking the OTA update when on this firmware, it is the official factory image.
@ acejavelin
I know that I'm a bit OT, but I think that this thread is the most suitable for my request: do you know if there is a nougat factory image available also for the xt1572?
Thanks in advance,
Gaetano.

As I stated in the first post... no, I have idea or information about any other images for other variants and I suggest following MotoFirmware123 on Twitter as that is the best place to find leaked firmware. Motonovo has gotten very tight on letting firmware get out, but if it becomes available this is likely where it will come from, IF it ever gets leaked.
Just curious. I recently moved on to a Note 8 and want to give my son my Moto X Pure. Does this file put default recovery on the phone as well? I tried to factory reset it last night (had it rooted with TWRP installed) and now it will only boot into TWRP. I just want it all stock for him.
Thanks

Yes, it is an official stock firmware image... if properly flashed with fastboot it will restore the device to 100% factory conditions, including recovery.
