HOW RESTORE MY DEVICE TO NON-GPE FIRMWARE

Well, i have removed this function for my tool because the new firmwares don't include the .bat file, so if you want restore your device please go to this thread
[URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2542219"]Restore NON-GPE firmware[/URL]

Q&A

-Why i don't have signal when i convert to GPE?

Well this is a know issue to fix it flash your stock fsg, don't know how? don't worry.. copy your stock fsg and put it in the tool folder, then press shift+right click and select open window promp here and paste the next code one by one:

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot reboot

-I have done the previous steep and continue without signal!!

well, please go to this thread and flash your respective radio via recovery Flash radio using recovery

-Why i can't boot to recovery?

Remember in fastboot mode VolUp SELECT and VolDown SCROLL

-Why i can't install an apk using your tool?

Well, be sure that the apk name don't have spaces, and check if the path of your apk have spaces too... i suggest that: rename your apk (simpler name) EX. xxxxxx.apk (where xxxxx are the name) and move your apk to the desktop, then try again..

-How can i say thank you?

Just press the THANKS BUTTON :D
[Moto G Original Android Development] Volpine:
Very very cool man!

Will F2F file system of the stock Rom be changed to the GPE EXT4? I've heard that the GPE ext4 implimentation is inferior?

Nice work!
[Moto G Original Android Development] readonly24:
Would be cool if you can automate the root process within your tool.
[Moto G Original Android Development] denzel09:
Same question, but probably yes.

Another: can you will add an option about radio to choice which of them to use? Example my moto g has en.eu version so it will be good if i will to have an option to choice directly from your tool that radio and so on..

Thanks
[Moto G Original Android Development] ohn42:
I have some questions:

What is the right sequence to use this tool?

- unlock

- flash recovery

- root

- install the rom

Would this work?

Is it possible to unroot and lock the device again in order to be able to use future OTA updates from Google?

Thank you for your feedback.
[Moto G Original Android Development] alonsoch:
Yes

[Moto G Original Android Development] alonsoch:
You need unlock your bootloader first to use this tool,

Install the ROM

Install custom recovery

Push supersu

Boot into recovery and flash super su

If you want relock and unroot you need flash an stock image (4.4.2)... Why? Because this Images are unsigned and can't relock your boot loader

For the ota question,we dont now in this moment,we have all the necessary files to have ota, we need an ota upgrade and see if we can Install it direct from our device (we need stock recovery for this, I will add it)

Thanks a lot for your answer. I will give it a try. I´m just curious ;)

I'm curious too! This is why I make a tool I'm working in a new version, it will include all my other tools and a lot of extra things.. Just approx 100 mb.. I'm working on it !! ;)

So I should wait for the new tool? Will you finish it soon?
[Moto G Original Android Development] alonsoch:
No buddy use this... I have a lot of homework and my girlfriend is waiting for me ;) so I don't know when I will finish the tool maybe the next week ,

[Moto G Original Android Development] ohn42:
Here is what I did:

I unlocked my Moto G

I flashed "Outside USA" image

I flashed CWM Recovery Error Message: mismatched partition size (recovery)

pushed SuperSu 2 SD

tried to reboot into recovery, but the Moto G rebootet normally and started the setup routine, what worked. But Moto G is not rooted.

What is my error? What did I wrong?

BTW: I have a German retail XT1032 8GB

Any ideas?
[Moto G Original Android Development] denzel09:
That error happens to some users sometimes but cwm should work well. You must ask in cwm thread for better support about this particular problem.
[Moto G Original Android Development] ohn42:
Thank you for your awsome fast reply!!!

Unfortunately I´m not even able to start CWM... :(

---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ----------

Sorry to all.

My Fault. I was using the wrong key in fastboot mode to enter CWM.

I pressed the power button instead of the volume up as described. Now all is working fine.I have Moto G GPE, unlocked and rooted!

Thank you!!!
[Moto G Original Android Development] denzel09:
Happy for you man!
[Moto G Original Android Development] dwensch:
Thanks so much for providing this tool! Gonna convert it to a GPE.

I also noticed the GPE firmware hosted on Mega gives a error to download in Chrome or Firefox but i pasted the link in jDownloader 2 and it downloads fine now!

I have been having wifi issues with mine after trying to convert my Moto G to GPE. I'm using a US version. Been trying to fix this for a few day now and have no I dea. I saw some other with similar issues but, the fixes didn't work for me. Also having trouble with CWM it wont let me browse the internal storage after the GPE convert. Any suggestions would be appriciated. Oh yea, i also tried to manually flash the rom back to stock 4.3 and 4.4 and still having the same issue. Thanks again!

Yes, I did try both recoveries for the GPE and the regular 4.4 firmware. had the same results. I was able to get everything working now, by manually putting the WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin file with root explorer on the phone back into the persist folder and got everything backup and running with the wifi. I don't know why that file got deleted when i tried to convert to the GPE verions. I'm all set now finally! :laugh: Anyways, thank you again for your suggestions! Thanks again!

i don´t know if flashing 4.3 to gpe is a bad idea, maybe should be 4.3 into 4.4 then gpe

i believe my problem was the USB port, it make a bad flash, then i could not recover after until i changed the port

about your tool, it is great but it has some issues, some menus are weird to understand

like: ok i flashed a motorola rom into GPE, so, should you use what tab for install recovers?

also, you should not have removed the recover stock motorola rom, it sort of worked, maybe for xt1032 without carrier branding

thanks anyway for the tool
[Moto G Original Android Development] yuv:
just wana say thanks

i managed to convert my moto g 4.4.2 tesco uk to gpe using your tool.

the only problem i m having is when i want to do a CWM recovery using the tool, this is what i get. "Mismatched partition size (recovery)

my device had a CWM recovery and rooted before but now its not.

Any ideas guys
[Moto G Original Android Development] kovaxo:
thank you for the tool

Yes you need to unlock the bootloader

update:

i found out that my device was still on the previous CWM recovery for moto g. all i had to do was root it. everything is working fine but i m concerned, shouldn't I do a flash CWM recovery for GPe version which my device is at now. or are they both the same.

Hope i m not confusing you guys. i will update once i encounter a problem.

The recovery are different, please flash the one for GPE... Today I will update the tool,o need update the recoverys

A big ask...??

If I follow this procedure to convert my Moto G to a GPe, once it has been rooted/flashed etc. is it then possible to flash the device back to 4.3 Jelly Bean using Moto Tool? (I inadvertently updated to 4.4 Sh!tKat when the pop-up window nag suddenly appeared whilst typing)

If not, is there an alternative Jelly Bean ROM that could be flashed after converting to GPe?

Thanks
[Moto G Original Android Development] alonsoch:
you can't flash 4.3 using my tool, i removed that function because the new firmware don't have a .bat.....

so if you want go back to 4.3 follow the link in the op to restore your device manually.....

i don't know if in xda you can find roms for the moto g GPE...
[Moto G Original Android Development] vj_dustin:
EDIT : SOLVED!

Hi folks. First thanks for this awesome easy tool alonsoch, and also for being constantly active to user repetitive queries.

Now, this is my first ever android device with a bootloader thingy.

I've always used devices that I root > flash a custom recovery > custom ROM.

So all this is very foreign for me.

I've read a lot, and have unlocked my bootloader.

Now I want to root my device with CWM recovery.

The thing is I have a XT-1033 Dual SIM version sold in INDIA.

So I have no clue what to do, absolutely none.

The more I am reading the more I'm getting confused.

All I want is a working call recorder that'd record voices on both sides, lol.

I'm doing all this just for it, because I think root might help me here.

So I'm fine with either 4.3 or 4.4, whichever supports this features best.

Could anyone be PLEASE so generous as to teach me like I'm five and tell me what to do next?

(I'm downloading this tool as we speak, almost done)

Also do I need to convert my device into the GP edition, or can I root as a non-GPe itself?

I mean I run this tool, select kitkat (I'm running 4.4.2 right now), flash recovery CWM (or CWM Advanced?), and then Push SU 2SD, and then flash SU zip through recovery.

Am I missing something?
[Moto G Original Android Development] kovaxo:
well ,, that awful , as am not able to unlock my device bootloader , its say's ''Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking" ,, Motorola says they going to send it to the email address i used to log in their site .i tried several times . and i didn't receive that mail yet .. i bought it unlocked from Amazon ,,

Any way around ?!

Hi,

Thanks for all your work with this tool, has been a great help to me! Is it possible to add a function (or provide instructions) on how to relock the bootloader for the GPE? I was able to easily unlock my GPE Moto G with the "fastboot oem unlock" command but have been unable to figure out a way to relock the bootloader (need to send the device back to Google for a refund). Unfortunately, the command "fastboot oem lock" does not seem to work. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[Moto G Original Android Development] BobbaLouie:
I thought I posted this an hour or 2 ago... just used 2.5 to install TWRP and it was NOT the version you list in the update notes. It was 2.6.3.0, not 2.6.3.2.

[edit] Just manually flashed 2.6.3.2 and in TWRP it does say 2.6.3.0, so, perhaps it's the right version but simply labeled wrong from within the app?

Hi!

I have a mix between 4.3 and GPE edition, and I can't fix it.

I have successfully unlocked the bootloader.

Then I tried to upgrade to GPE edition. It gave me 3 errors, but when finished the process, I had the GPE edition.... mostly.

I can't install the CWM recovery, only accepts the 4.3 stock recovery (I have tried with all 3 versions in stock and CWM: The JB, the KK and the GPE)

When I try to downgrade to 4.3 I get an error when flashing 'boot ' and 'system'.

How can I fix it?

And now, I have found that the phone doesn't charge as many people said. I hope that the option of pushing the power button a coule of minutes do the work.....

Thanks.
[Moto G Original Android Development] alonsoch:
Well if when flash the recovery say mismatched partition.. Is ok don't worry....

When you flash gpe image maybe you will see purple letters in fastboot.. Don't worry is normal... Now... You say that have the two version(4.3 and 4.4.2) is very strange.. Please reflash.....

And if this not work for you try flashing 4.4.2 and then flash to gpe
[Moto G Original Android Development] izk666:
The trick of the power button works! (It's not necessary to wait to run out of battery). :)

I have flashed the GPE edition, but I can't flash any recovery. Any recovery I try to install say "mismatch partition". Any suggestion?

So if I relock using this tool, do I lose root too?

Also by any chance do I get my warranty back? :p

One question,so is impossible relock a converted device?? I mean relock with gpe image....

I'm talking of seconde case. If you download a gpe rom and flash it on non gpe you can not relock bl because that image is Not signed. Already tried for many users. Atm there is not a gpe firmware "signed" to download.
