Dear Friends,
I have Moto X 1052 First Gen 5.1 Lollipop bought in India. I want to root it and flash Nougat 7.0. I searched this forum for tutorials but they mentioned the android version as 4.4.2 or 4.4.4.
Since I am on 5.1, kindly guide me. I would like to take nandroid backup first, so that I can restore the stock rom if something goes wrong.
A while ago I took adb backup of my phone from my linux desktop but I could not open it to check whether the backup was satisfactory.
I am feeling nervous coz its a costly phone and unfortunately I dont have back up phone.
Please guide.
Thank you,
FJ73
Moto x
What can I do for you?

it can be done with the Utility 1.33 version i have posted in the dev forum or from the op of the stand alone root utility found on razr forum.

also, being unlocked, you could search for a flashable zip for SU.

My device Mororola Razr D1 it's 'Brick' after, downgrade (Kit Kat to Jelly Bean), using Motorola RSD
Help Me to revive my phone please
( I not speak englhis)
Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your devices issue. You would probably be best to try flashing the stock kit Kat firmware again. With RSD. I can say, that downgrading the Moto X from kit Kat to anything lower usually results in a bricked device. It's the same with many Motorola devices. They cannot be downgraded safely. Some can be fixed flashing the version you were on before downgrading and some can't. Only a service center can usually help those.
You will need to register on XDA and ask for further help or ideas here,
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!
You can't even downgrade from a higher kit Kat version to a lower one on the X either. No downgrading at all.

Hello ladies and gents, has android 5.0 been cracked yet? I mean can you root a sprint gs5 that is running Android 5.0
I would like to rot my phone so I can install a program to my phone that requires root. I do not wish to change or flash new roms or anything. Just to root the phone for this software. Has 5.0 been cracked on the sprint gs5? If so can someone link me to the thread for the instructions and links for software? How successful is the root? I know rooting is at your own risk but sometimes it fails more then it succeeds and that feels a bit risky for me. I am on mobile so it is not easy for me to search all the threads. I did see the sticky about rooting this phone, but I do not remember saying what version of Android it was for. Thanks for all the help.
The rooting method has not changed. All you need is Odin and the superuser tar.

Root Sprint S5....Step-by-Step
Hi everyone
I have a retail UK Moto G LTE totally stock I have upgraded to lollipop and totally hate it its actually making me not want to use the phone lol
I want to go back to Kitkat 4.4.4 my phone is model xt1039
I don't see a guide that covers my issue specifically and I really don't want to brick the phone
I would be greatful if someone could point me to the right "stock" kitkat 4.4.4 for my phone
a nd a push in the right direction if flashing it.
Thankyou guys.
now that you have one of the latest bootloaders (lollipop), you will have to proceed with extreme caution not to flash the bootloader with an old one ( in which case you will hardbrick the phone). however you can downgrade to 4.4.4 without any issues minus screen flickering till you put the phone to sleep.

and readon
I'm a novice with this stuff although I do have some understanding as I've unlocked and rooted a few phones but I'm not understanding of the bootloader unlock is it for developer edition only, also I haven't found a root method post and I know this might sound stupid but are the note 4 910 roms compatible with 915 edge
Hi I too am a novice and this phone is giving me a headache soo many variants and yes from what I've read around the 910 ROMs are compatible just with no edge support. I am on tmo soooo spotty lte . Ive had temp root with king but no luck with recovery. I found https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ent/developer-edition-stock-deodexed-t3127896 but haven't flashed yet. If you happen to learn any thing maybe u cud pass along and if and when i flash above illl t yaknow if it blew up. All the years ive been self teaching ANDROID wishing for another to ask questions (no one i know even cares for tech no one knows what im talking about ever) u may b the first person I've ever reached out to to ?. Hope i was n e help at all
