I don't need the 4G or any cellular communication to work, just Wi-Fi and the rest of the phone's features.
Since they're almost the same phone - would flashing a falcon (Moto G) ROM to peregrine work (Moto G 4G)?
Thanks!

Perhaps a separate development thread should be created for Moto G XT1033 / Dual SIM.
Can some one report back the success/failure of using the Unofficial CM 11 ROM, here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2608377 , for it ? (All credit to dhacker29 and his team !) This is the only ROM which has some form of support for the XT-1033 but user feddback is minimal. For someone contemplating on buying this device, it would be helpful to know from existing users of this ROM on the Dual SIM variant of the Moto G.
CyanogenMod currently doesn't support Dual SIM configurations but going by posts here and there such as, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2631777 , it seems it's possible to upgrade to KitKat minus the functionality of the second SIM, rendering it a Single SIM...
Will CyanogenMod / developer support eventually extend to XT1033 as well ? Or will users have to contend with limited functionality such as Single SIM etc ? There seems to a large developer base for the other variants, maybe, we could have better solution.
This ROM doesn't work for me - no signal even with flashing the modem they said to flash in the first post.

Since Render kernel is an AOSP based kernel, it will work for the XT1033 but only with AOSP based ROMs. It wont work with the stock ROM.
So I'm just curious at this point..I know I'm on the orig. Moto g forums. With that being said its been said that moto g 2nd gen is the exact same phone as the orig moto G just with a bigger screen..but same screen resolution,same internals,same battery etc. But the moto g does have front speakers and a slight bump on the camera.
My question is..
Can the orig moto g Roms work for the moto g 2nd gen since there the same exact phone?
The reason I'm post in this on here instead of the 2nd gen forums is I know not a lot of people who own orig moto g will jump to the 2nd gen even devs for that matter but did anybody on here jump ship and know if this will work?
Moto G (1st Gen), Moto G LTE and Moto G (2nd Gen) each have unique Kernels and ROMS. They are not interchangeable from my experience. When a custom kernel is available for 2nd Gen maybe then you can try one of the zips from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688
While the hardware is almost identical, Motorola have made changes breaking compatibility. It probably wouldn't be a massive challenge for a skilled developer.
Summary: Someone needs to create a modified Moto G (2nd Gen) stock kernel that is compatible with Moto G (1st Gen) ROMs. Even if the ROM did boot, camera and other features may not work.
Of course it will not works, even between Moto G 2013 variants (XT1032, 1033, 1034..) do not work on each other.

Not true. I have flashed ROMs (including kernel) for XT1028, XT1031, XT1033 and XT1034 on XT1032 and they work.
Hi,
I've unlocked the bootloader and rooted my (supposed to be) Motorola Moto G LTE 8GB - it has an microSD-Slot.
Now I wanted to install the Cyanogenmod 11, but the installation fails with following comment:
This package is for "peregrine " devices; this is a "xt1032".
What is it now? I have not used LTE so far, but as I am informed, there is no xt1032 with microSD-Slot. What should I do?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

You are using a recovery that is for falcon(xt1032). Download and install one of the recoveries for Peregrine from the LTE Development forum.
Falcon(non LTE) roms, recoveries, etc. won't work on the Peregrine(LTE).
Head over to Moto G 4G Android Development.
I chose CWM 6.0.5.0. - worked well.

Best option for timely official updates is XT1032 Google Play Edition (GPe). But not all custom ROMs are compatible with GPe (as seen with the current 5.0.x custom ROMs).
If only "all custom ROMs supported" is the concern, then any (non-GPe) XT1032 will do. Like US-Retail, UK-Retail, European, Brazilian, Argentinian, etc.
(Actually, all XT1032 are inter-convertible.)
falcon is the name for all 1st gen moto g, XT1028 to XT1034. But actually, its the XT1032 on which custom ROMs are built.. Only later they are made compatible with other versions. So, we can assume falcon to be XT1032.
Also, I've noticed that US-Retail XT1032 (also the one I own) gets the official updates from Motorola (not talking about "Soak Tests") , a little bit earlier than other regions.
