[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SickBeast:
This may be possible with a hack, similar to how the galaxy s3 can do it. This phone already has a lot of dev support so if it's possible I'm sure it's only a matter of time.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nlra:
I really doubt this will ever be possible. Perhaps somebody may be able to get the radio/baseband to accept the AWS firmware, but radio performance on AWS networks will likely be crap. You have to ask yourself: why are there two different versions of the phone? I'd wager it is because given the amount of physical space they had to work with inside of the phone, they could not fit both an antenna that was tuned for the AWS band as well as one for the bands that apparently had to be sacrificed in the AWS model. (Note that the AWS model doesn't merely *add* the AWS band, but also removes support for other bands that the Global one supports.) So, sure: the "global" model's complete inability to tune into AWS is a software thing and somebody may be able to figure out a way to overcome that software limitation, but if you put an AWS/US model next to a global model flashed with AWS firmware, both talking to the same AWS radio tower, I bet you will find that you actually get better radio performance from the US model.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SickBeast:
In Canada I'm thinking that the established cellphone providers will not sell phones that support the aws spectrum because they are afraid of the newcomers. I would imagine that it is similar in the USA.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nlra:
So your theory is that Moto made 2 models by artificially restricting in software which model can access which bands, in order to appease their carrier customers?

I don't buy it. In the U.S., the Moto G isn't sold by or through *any* carriers whatsoever. There is only one option for purchase: full-price, unlocked, direct from Motorola. So unless I'm missing something, that conspiracy theory really doesn't make any sense.

-- Nathan
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SickBeast:
Fair enough. You could well be right. The fact remains, however, that there was a mod like this for the galaxy s3.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
I'll posit that the cheaper SoC on the Moto G skips LTE and supports less bands (at once), hence the need for the two models.

The existence of the AWS mod on both the N.A. SGS3 and Note 2 variants, all equipped with Qualcomm basebands, is why I am wondering aloud about this.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theepicflyer:
I flashed this rom and my device number changed to XT1034 from XT1032. I used this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581548&page=4

I dont know whether it will help your case, but just give it a try:D
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
It says right on the OP that the modem is unchanged. See in About Phone what the Baseband line says, I expect it'll still say XT1032 or falcon instead of XT1034 or falcon_aws.

The evidence so far is that it won't work. Maybe some tinkering with /efs and NV items could do the trick, but that's anyone's guess at this point.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fortissimo:
Numerous models sold by Canada's big 3 have AWS band like the Samsung SIIX T989D. Some even unlocked, like the galaxy nexus. So you think but it isn't true.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
[MENTION=505299]fortissimo[/MENTION]: I know fully well that Big 3 have and are still selling assorted models that support more bands, this discussion is specific to the Motorola Moto G.

As per this post, and this one. the /persist partition is also an ext4 partition and is specific to every Moto G, not included in the stock images.

If I can get my hands on a pair of /persist partitions from an XT1032 and an XT1034 I could compare their contents and see if that reveals any clues. Whoever sends such an image my way has to be ok with me possibly seeing their IMEI. (Edit: I got a classmate to dump his XT1032's /persist, and while it is a valid ext4 partition, its contents aren't really human legible. The directories and filenames ressemble hashes and have no strings inside.)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
Update: I now have an 8GB XT1032 of my own. Backed up everything and started looking around.

Could someone with an XT1034 send me a copy of their "fsg" partition? (/dev/block/mmcblk0p21)? Of interest is how many .img.gz other model's fsg partitions have.

EDIT: Actually, any "fsg" partitions with your appropriate information (e.g. model, last stock ROM flashed), would be appreciated.

I found my IMEI in clear text inside the utags (0p8) and utagsBackup (0p15) partitions, although these seems more like fingerprints than having to do with actual network access.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
Bump? Anyone?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepbarca:
FSG Partition

Can you teach me how to do that ?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
I give out scripts you can run from recovery on the phone and on a computer with netcat installed here. The technique is based on information from this thread.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
[MENTION=3558001]sepbarca[/MENTION] pulled the fsg partition from his phone (an XT1034), it's identical to the XT1032's factory image that's been linked elsewhere on the forum.

Attached are the fsg partition from my (former) phone, as well as the QCN and EFS Professional text format NV items backups, with IMEI removed.

A backup of the NV items from an XT1034 could yield clues. (Keep in mind I don't have the XT1032 anymore, and have ordered a pentaband HSPA XT1045 Moto G LTE, so testing on my end won't be possible.)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexbrand09:
test

So what is the final status on the possibility of converting an XT1032 into a XT1034? I couldn't quite follow if someone was successful in doing so.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capdeguma:
But from XT1034 to XT1032 can be done ? I have an XT1034 and need to use it in EU.

Thanks
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kristi-Tech:
Im interested to have my XT1034 to receive 3G in EU too. Any help please?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darkshado:
[MENTION=6019539]alexbrand09[/MENTION]: no definitive answer yet, I still think we're short a few files to even try anything meaningful.

[MENTION=2315875]capdeguma[/MENTION], [MENTION=4495110]Kristi-Tech[/MENTION]: Either of you would be the first to try. Please make

complete

backups before trying, and understand that you might end up with a brick.

By complete backups I mean both:

raw partition dumps (with dd) of every partition on your phone, (If the phone is still SIM-locked, make one before and after the SIM unlock please)

NV items backup with QPST and in text format (with either EFS Professional or NV_reader_writer)

I think we need the NV backups from an XT1034 to have a shot at the XT1032->XT1034 conversion, a bit like the mods that have been made for the Galaxy Note 2 I317(M) to enable AWS.

I've already posted the NV backups from an XT1032 in this thread, if flashing these on an XT1034 work, then it's likely it'll work the other way as well.

Good luck,

Darkshado

Hi Pranjal,

Good work...... Keep coming. I expect Note 3 ROM from you.
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
:P :P I'll see

Download links are up now!
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] NeroD:
Only a xposed customized stock rom
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
It's not just an xposed customised rom. This rom, like my rom for Samsung galaxy 3, is based on the minimalist concept with malware, crapware and redundant apps removed!

So your battery lasts longer device performance is better. Music in this device is amazing.

Also it's for those who like to stay as close to stock as possible with the best music, performance and battery.

Peace
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] sganguly:
What about the camera performance ?
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
suggest me a camera upgrade if you know any. As of now, the camera performs just like the stock one.
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] BlueVirus:
Lenovo supercamera is good alternative or KitKat launcher
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
Lenovo super camera is good, but has a problem.. Check out the image. I'll add it in extras though. View attachment 2504833

I have already replaced the stock jelly bean launcher with go launcher which offers many options and themes, including KitKat theme. I will provide that in extras too.

Check out the "future development" on page one for upcoming features.
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] BlueVirus:
very nice Pranjal instead of Kitkat camera I typed as kitkat launcher. :rolleyes:
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
haha! okay..I looked at the kk camera. if it works fine, ill include it in my rom :good:
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] BlueVirus:
It should work.

BTW it would be easy for you to not to include xposed or gravity box which can be readily available to download. in fact, Most of of the apps which can be downloaded from play store can be omitted to reduce size.

Also it has now become a norm to provide flashable zip ROMs as SP tools methods feels too complex. So please look into providing flahsable ones. Perhaps that is one of the reasons y your rom is not getting expected downloads, I feel.
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
I'll look into making flashable zip too. Next update will be a zip file.

I cannot exclude xposed and gravity, though my motto is a minimalistic design, because if by accident you removed any of these files/apk then your settings will fail. I want my rom to be stable in extreme circumstances too :)
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] BlueVirus:
Not just the updates, but whole ROM should be released as zip for more people to benefit (you know, there are many issues with drivers for these devices on windows 7 and windows 8).

I do not understand what settings might fail. If any settings are to fail then it should be related to Xposed and GB, not the base ROM itself. Could you please elaborate?
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
Yes, I will make the whole ROM in zip format. Currently I do not know how to make the whole ROM in a flashable zip. Although I know how to make a flashable zip. I'll definitely work on this, as it is needed in my SG3 ROM too.

Yes, xposed and Go settings will be removed which might leave you helpless at the time of need.. Like torch or other quick shortcuts. The ROM in itself will not fail, but the default Android format will be enabled.
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] sganguly:
Awesome !

Awesome ROM! No problem till now. Everything is working fine. Full charge completed at 6 AM today...........listened to music, always on 3G, done whatsapp, hangout, facebook, hangout video call two times for 10 mins each, normal calling......and now it is 9 PM, battery is showing 60%.

[MENTION=2040453]pranjal18[/MENTION] Tried several roms till now.... But again saying you are the best..... No issues.... No problem in connecting pc also....

I am requesting some following things....

1. You have instructed that any one can upgrade to v 3 from any versions of u r rom... But i hav seen that if i doing that some of apps are present from past like dsp manager etc. So please fix it....

2.the default ui font which u give in 1.1 is removed from 2.1.0..please give that font... Or please give a option to chose fonts... Pleass add some ui fonts....

2.Now please give go launcher prime..... Badly need the extra features....

3. Can u please add some ui languages like bengali, marathi,..... Please....Please....

4.please customise something to play hd games... Cause it gets problematic in some of the games... Which can be played in other roms...

Please don't mind anything... About this feedback....

Waiting for u r reply....
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] pranjal18:
Thanks for the review! I really appreciate it! :)

1. One cannot directly flash v3 over any ROM. It might mess up your phone. The procedure says that you can upgrade from any version of this ROM eg. v1.1, v2.1.0, etc. For this, use the direct upgrade file. If you follow this recommended procedure, you will not face problems like the DSP manager and other apps not being deleted. (I checked today...I flashed my phone with v1.1 and then v3 direct upgrade.)

2. Yes. In the next version, I will revert then fonts. There is a problem with emoticons. Until then, flash the Canvas 4 original fonts available in the first post. :)

3. Go Launcher EX premium is a paid app. Providing it free here is not cool. But, fortunately, there is a workaround. Install Go Launcher EX Prime and Getjar and get the premium features for free. Same thing applies for Toucher Pro. (Y)

4. I am not sure how to add languages as of now. If you find something, feel free to post here. I will not be able to work on this for a few weeks.

5. Which games in particular? Asphalt 8 and real racing 3 (Electronic Arts) and NFS work flawlessly. I think you did not follow the flashing procedure correctly. Please verify.
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] rutwikkiller:
Can u see whether MC4 works for u or not for me it doesn't
