there is a reason why the above is in the first post. im afraid u got a brick now .can you get into the boot loader?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] abraxas:
jamin again

now i can open my jamin but the problem is it shows that battery is out of charge always. I only can open my jamin while the charging cable is connected. I cannot make any operations from my computer with USB cable. When i connect usb cable to jamin the screen keeps flashing again and again. If it is a brick now i will be shocked :shock: . And i dont know how to getin to bootloader by the way. I need your urgent help. I dont want to pay money to imate service. Because russians like to take too much money from foreigners.

i only can make the jamin work while the charging cable is connected. It works normally with downgraded version of windows when cable is connected.

I want to change from english to spanish but I can´t unlock the cid with the lokiwiz, neither to downgrade. Can someone help me?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cribelles:
unlock software

I have tried with a software which is on ebay to unclok cid, because in the advertisement said it will unlock cid for k-jam, but this has failed, so the link faria has provided would be the same process. Anybody has his k-jam 2.16 rom cid unlocked by using any kind of software?

Any solution?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] antlane:
I'm having difficulties downgrading too. I'm getting "invalid update tool" from the tool. I've got a brand new QTEK 9100 direct from Vodafone UK. The stats are:

IPL 2.17.0001

SPL 2.17.0001

GSM 02.07.10

OS 2.17.7.2

So according to previous posts, this should work as the ROM is below 2.21.

Here are the steps I've taken:

Downloaded CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe from the XDA FTP site

Extracted all the files to a dir

Connected the phone and allowed an activesync connection

Ran ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe

I receive the 300 "invalid update tool" error

Is there anything that I can do? If I use the unlock tool from IMEI Check, will I then be able to downgrade to RUU_Prodigy_1060204_105_11210_TMO_UK_Ship.exe as this is the only ROM that I can use the Blackberry Connect client?

Many thanks in advance for any help!

Another 8125 Successful CID Unlock

Worked just as described. Thanks Faria! I did have a pucker factor, though, because I decided not to back-up my ROM before downgrading. I did manage to find WizBackup, but read somewhere that it wrote over your SD-card. I didn't want to loose what I had on the card, so I proceeded at risk.

I'm confirming failure with a 2.25 rom.

After downgrade to the custom rom I read

IPL 1.01

SPL 2.25

So I had to upgrade again to the 2.25 rom without CID unlocking.

The pity is that I bought the phone with a 2.17 rom and only recently upgraded to 2.25 (I thought that I had already CID unlocked -- but apparently not). I wouldn't mind seeing if I can downgrade to 2.17 stock but I don't have that rom and it doesn't appear to on ftp.

I guess I'll just have to stay with the 2.25 bootloader and customize from there...no big loss.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] scarecrow:
I grew a sack this evening and ran CID unlock from after downgrading from 2.25 stock to 1.08 stock, even though the IP/SPL differed:

IP 1.08

SPL 2.25

CID unlock worked (upgraded back to 2.25 stock and back down to 1.08 stock and IP and SPL both read 1.08)

yeah

[Moto X Q&A] alemonte:
So I used the 4.4 root tutorial without any problems and then flashed the 4.4.2 update via sdcard.

The deal is that my supersu seems to be damaged, thought I still have root, the xposed framework can´t seem to receive supersu permission.

So I want to downgrade to the 4.4.

How should I do this?
[Moto X Q&A] okaban:
Term "Downgrade" refers to "lowering" you version, in this case from 4.4 to 4.2.2. Now you just need to go back to 4.4

I am not sure whether your bootloader unlocked or not and what you version is, but I think this one will help http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2603358 or this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2538896
[Moto X Q&A] alemonte:
Ok, so I have a locked bootloader. My guess is that I have the last version since I made the update to 4.4.2.

By having a locked bootloader I think I can´t downgrade to 4.2.2, right?

So I wanted to go back to 4.4 by following the commands below:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot flash system system.img

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot reboot

But right on the first fastboot, I get this error:

downgraded security version

Update gpt_main version failed

preflash validation for GPT
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
you can't go back to the complete 4.4 package and honestly im not even going to tell you how to get 4.4 running because i wont be responsible for you hardbricking your phone.

4.4.2 has a new bootloader and 4.4 has a diffrent bootloader you cant downgrade the 4.4.2 bootloader at all. it is a one way street sorry
[Moto X Q&A] alemonte:
OK! I know I messed up updating to 4.4.2 rooted. Should've stayed on 4.4 but my X was having issues after disconnecting from Wifi to connect to LTE. Anyways..I´ll be returning the phone and getting a new one today! Tnks a lot for the help!
[Moto X Q&A] okaban:
Most likely you tried to downgrade to the very first 4.2.2 (.31 in case of XT1058). It's not possible. You need the one after, with camera update (.54 for XT1058, for example, http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0)
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
please dont downgrade to 4.2.2 camera update downgrade to 4.4 you just have to not flash the gpt file but flash everything else.

if you flash 4.2.2 Camera update and then take the OTA for 4.4 you will brick your phone.
[Moto X Q&A] EchoHelix:
So, is it possible to go from 4.4.2 to 4.4 without bricking or not? Just asking for clarification because of
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Please do not advise any users to downgrade!

It is well documented that if you downgrade to ANY version, once on 4.4.2, you will brick your phone! It is literally all over the Moto X forums.

Wouldn't you feel awful if the OP followed your advice and bricked their phone???

---------- Post added at 09:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ----------

NO! I have no idea why anyone would advise you to do that.....

Whatever exploit you had used to root on 4.4 does not work on 4.4.2

The only way to root (and achieve write-protect-disable), now that you are on 4.4.2 is to unlock the bootloader. Even with unlocked bootloader, you still can't downgrade without bricking.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
I'll just add my two cents as well....as perfectly said already above....I'll just add....

NO. Do not ever try to downgrade to any version if you are on 4.4.2 or higher already. Unless you don't care at all if you brick and have the cash for a new phone or an old phone you'd be happy using again.

No. Some will debate this, and they should keep it to themselves.....unless they are offering to replace your phone if their advice bricks you. ?

---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:17 PM ----------

[MENTION=842879]okaban[/MENTION] , please do not advice people to downgrade, or lead them to believe its safe.

If you want to try it, go ahead....but keep it to yourself. Too many aren't confident with this stuff and will end up with a paperweight because you led them to believe they could do it.

So please, do not suggest downgrading. Its irresponsible and hazardous advice.

Thanks! ?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Sorry, quoted because I wanted to try and emphasize this advice... and add...

The GPT.BIN in 4.4.3 has been updated as well.. so Once you have either 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 on your phone, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DOWNGRADE!!!

If you try and downgrade only "parts" things wont work properly... example: Those who had 4.4.2 and downgraded only system.img and boot.img found issues going settings -> security... (it kicked them out). And other flakey things happened. When they attempted to update, things got worse.

4.4.4 will likely see updates to motoboot.img(bootloader) and GPT.BIN(partition table)... So the same warnings will apply.

It does NOT matter if your bootloader is unlocked or not. These same warnings and caveats apply!!
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Good point at the end. After 4.4.2....some thought their unlocked phone was immune to these warnings.....or their dev edition....which every one should know now is no different than any other unlocked phone. Aside from intact warranty.

Great addition KidJoe! Doesn't matter the phone, locked, unlocked or dev edition......none can safely downgrade.

The moto x is nothing like a Nexus in this regard. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitko25522:
The phone was received from service where it got repaired for lost imei. It had android 4.1.1 but I wanted to update to newer 4.3. With my recent experience I knew I had to make a backup of /efs before doing anything so i made a backup of /efs with the working 4.1.1. Then I updated to 4.3 and the imei got fked. It was an official rom. I rooted the phone to restore the efs backups i had (which i made with 2 programs: the one thats just a command prompt and efs pro). The command prompt program couldnt restore the imei and made it 0049. EFS pro could restore it and then I had a working 4.3 with valid imei still no network. I read that 4.3 has this efs v2 things so I decided to go back to 4.1.2. Going through the same stuff with the rooting and restoring the efs I still had a valid imei and sn but it said only emergency calls (e.g no network). Now im running android i9300XXDLID 4.1.1 and im at the same stage can someone please tell me what to do? I have not installed ariza patch and whenever I try to install some modem the imei gets messed and I have to restore it with efs pro. The phone is the samsung galaxy S3 i9300. It's out of warranty so I dont care about binary counts just need to make it work like a phone again as it cant call receive calls or send messages at it's current state.
