[Q]How to reinstall firmware(radio)?

Hi, I formatted my firmware from clockwork recovery and I tried installing a ROM. Problem now is I don't have any radio(baseband) and I'm not sure if it has caused any other problems. Currently running Purity ROM 4.4.2
Probably need to fastboot flash cache.img
Search this forum for "cache.img" or something

Fastboot flash radio <name of radio.img> or simply adb flash a flushable zip of a radio.

The latest radio image from google radio-hammerhead-m8974a-1.0.25.0.23.img can be extracted from the Nexus 5 4.4.2 stock rom.
Then use zephiK's instructions to flash it.
The latest stock ROM can be downloaded from google at https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/hammerhead-kot49h-factory-02006b99.tgz

What recovery to use? 41.05 bootloader

Hi, I've successfully installed Brazilian Stock ROM/Identity Crysis ROM (both Lollipop) on my XT1032 without any error using PhilzTouch 6.55 recovery, but everytime i try to install CM12/CM12-based ROM it will fail. Apparently because my bootloader is older than it should be. I've tried TWRP and it will fail too. Is there any recovery compatible with 41.05 BL? Or should i update it? I'd rather be able to downgrade to KK, so 41.13 will be ok, right? Also, how to update BL?
Regards
I believe the bootloader file is named motoboot.img and could be flashed using fastboot commands.
The motoboot file are included with stock firmware xml.zip files.

[Q] Error installing cyanogenmod

So yesterday I downloaded the latest nightly version of Cyanogen Mod but when I am about to install it I am getting an error saying that I have a bootloader hhz12f and it requires a hhz12d... What am I supposed to do? Should I flash the needed bootloader or what?
Either flash the correct bootloader or unzip the zip, delete the bootloader check from the update-script, rezip, then flash. It's easier just to downgrade the bootloader or you will have to change the zip on every update until it moves to CM12.1.

Updating Bootloader safety?

Is it possible to update bootloader and/or radio on kitkat & not ruin the rom or wipe device to update?
To still run kitkat rom w/ newer bootloader?
Yes just flash them manually in fastboot, or flash a zip file in custom recovery.
