Hi guys!
My mom just bought the Moto g 2013 xt1034... And it haven't receive the ota to 4.4.4 or lollipop... It's stuck on 4.4.2!! What can I do? I don't want to unlock de bootloader Cuz warranty.
I appreciate if someone can help me. Thanks!
Actualization: problem solved.
I follow these steps:
Unistall "Motorola Updates" from play store or app manager. Look for updates, update to 4.4.4 and Update the app "Motorola updates"
This method works fine for me.

Hi All,
I have looked through the forums and searched the Google and I can't find the correct info for my situation so I appreciate any help.
I have a Moto G GPe that I ordered from Google Play, it came with Android 4.4.2 on it and I am wondering if I can downgrade it to 4.3.
I've unlocked the bootloader and it looks like I should be able to flash a custom recovery, the problem is that I cannot find an image for the stock Moto G GPe 4.3 firmware.
I want to downgrade because I have a need to test an Android app on 4.3.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

There is a regular Motorola 4.3 firmware available
you can get it here - http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
just to let you know, it will try to force you to update to 4.4.2

Awesome, I wasn't sure if I could use the regular Motorola firmware on it. I had read that the partition tables are different and I've only seen threads where people flash from the Motorola firmware to the GPe version.
Do you think this would present any problems?
Thanks again.
Backup anything you want to keep because the phone will be completely wiped. There should be no problems. You can find out how to easily disable KitKat 'update' notifications, if you search this forum. It's worth considering there is an issue with the Moto G that should be patched in the next few weeks, but that will require you to update to 4.4.2/3.

i have the original moto g (xt1033) which is the dual sim variant.
but i have the xt1032 gpe image installed on it.
someone told me when the OTA comes out for lollipop and when i update my phone. the update might brick it. is there any chance of that happening?
Well your phone thinks that it's the xt1032, I wouldn't take the chance of flashing the XT1032 bootloader and bricking it. I'm in the same position as you right now, what I'm going to do is wait for the lollipop update to become a flashable .zip so i don't need to run OTA and flash the new bootloader which would make downgrading and unbricking impossible until it releases on XT1033... whereas a zip flashed in recovery would be pain-free and safe if you're already converted to xt1032, you know that atleast, I'm hoping, cause all single sim roms ontop of converted GPE xt1033 run the sim fine, but the OTA including bootloader is the bad part.
tl;dr: DONT install the OTA update, wait for a flashable zip and flash it over your converted setup or you risk bricking from new bootloader

Actually, being rooted can make the installation seem fine, when really it isn't.

No lollipop yet
Sent from my XT1033 using XDA Free mobile app
Got an update for the Motorola Update-services app in the Play Store today.
It says in the release notes it is in preparation of the Lollipop update.
Hopefully it will also become available for the dual sim Moto G.
When I do the update check it still says my software is up-to-date..

nice just got a notification on my phone that an update is available.
I wonder if a rooted and custom kernel (experience) would interfere with a smooth upgrade?
- would I lose root?
- custom kernel problematic?
thanks merlin

Hello I have an LG V10 H900 (AT&T) and I want to downgrade my device to Lollipop (5.0) is there anyway possible?
I never backed up device when I was on Android 5.0. I have LGUP and ADB Fastboot, but I don't have the kdz or tot and dll file for android 5.0 for the LG V10 H900 (AT&T Version). Could someone please help me downgrade my Android smart phone to 5.0? I'd much appreciate.

What you're asking for cannot be done since it will brick your phone. Completely. Once any of us upgraded to MM, we were screwed. So, at this point, we're stuck on MM, with no development because of the locked bootloader, and it is very unlikely that att will upgrade us to Nougat.
Stick with very stock MM or go phone shopping in December.

I'm sorry for the delay in replying. I do not know why you're having the troubles that you're having. All of that works fine for me after the ota update.
I would contact Lg explaining the issues that you are having.
Thanks
Thanks for replying, I value it sir.
I am located at Pakistan, so, I wasn't entertained by OTA, so, I have to upgrade through manual procedure with the help of LGUP software. I was went good, but after restarting, I said troublig me with the said issues. I hope so that LG will reply you with due importance.
Thanks for the help.

I have the same proble, what did you do?
Does the rootedH900TOT or rootedsystemh900.tot not work if you're already on marshmallow? Both of the files are on xda. Also if I try to flash an earlier version of marshmallow will it brick the phone? Or does brick only happen if you try to flash a major OS? like 6.0 -> 5.1? Thanks
