is there any custom rom that can be flashed over stock direct ly

hi guys,previously none of the rooms would work with stock rom directly. I had to flash retail GB firmware for ROMs like cm mokee to work. do you guys know of any rom that can be flashed directly over stock ? cox am back to

stock now
[Moto G General] reversegear:
CM, Mokee, and Gummy ROMs support dual sim. You can flash directly without the need of GB firmware

In case you want other custom ROMs like PA, PAC, C-ROM etc... (Single sim only) You need to flash gpe firmware there is guide in the forum specifically for 1033 devices search for it

Worked flawlessly on XT1032 (single sim)

I used this method to unlock a Moto G XT1032 bought in UK's tesco to which i flashed pure en_UK rom few months prior to all the unlocking.

Everything worked like a charm, so thank you! If only every phone was rooted so easy...

PS.

The phone is working in Poland without any problems really and to my bewilderment a few months after I got this one for my brother we got a Moto G officially available in polish stores (gawddamn should have held on, if only i'd know :silly:...)

---------- Post added 28th May 2014 at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was 27th May 2014 at 11:46 PM ----------

In my personal opinion it's like this:

Rooting for rooting's sake is pointless IF you dont take full advantage of it so be sure to do it.

Since rooting Moto G

*permanently and irreversibly*

(due to unlocking the bootloader) voids your warranty be sure you are OK with that. If your phone works in some harsh conditions and is likely to be harmed solely due to that you might wanna hold on to the warranty.

Ask yourself if you consider this phone cheap in price and affordable or is it rather expensive as hell? If you find it quite affordable and the worse would come to pass (broken phone with no warranty) you just wouldn't feel too bad about it. Besides, even then most likely someone from here would be able to help you and afaik perma-bricking your phone is not an easy thing to do, ofc unless done on purpose.

So, " im just wondering if its worth it?", the answer is: it depends how much is the phone worth to you, and how much is it's functionality? Risk is quite low and gain from rooting, if used correctly, quite high.

If i were you id do a pros/cons comparison, i mean the moto G's stock rom is really good since its nearly pure google's android (with like only 4 motorola apps), and the closest thing i know of to the nexus line. However, if you want for example things like CWM, titanium, greenify, wakelock detector etc i'd do it.

As for rooting itself, the process is very easy and straightforward but when doing such a thing there is always a risk, a very, very small one imho. A silly example but a very unfortunate, sudden power loss/blackout *could* screw you over quite good although it would have to be a crazy coincidence (not impossible tho):p so it's not risk-free just highly unlikely afaik.

===========

For me, personally, rooting is quite worth it. I dont abuse my phones and i do not root right from the box so that i have a chance to notice any "defects" should i need to use the warranty. When i rooted my Xperia SP (Moto G is my brother's phone) i was finally able to get rid of some bloatware preinstalled games that came with one update, turn on some small things like NFC icon and install a bunch of things that do require root access, like mentioned greenify. So for me it was worth it, I do however recognize that people and their sense of "worth" are different so you have to answer this for yourself ;)

Good luck :p

PS.

If someone sees any major, meritoric and unforgivable mistake on my part, i am sorry and i ask, be sure to correct me.:fingers-crossed:

Hey, Thanks for the reply. I tried that, and reflashed. Didn't work, so I tried it with a factory reset and that didn't work either.

Thanks

*UPDATE* I flashed crdroid. Still getting loads of input lag. Damn this is annoying.

*Edit again* I feel like a bloody idiot. Turns out there was a setting in accessibility where you triple tap and it zooms right in that I activated. I was messing around and deactivated it, and now inputlag is gone. *sighs* Imma also stay with Crdroid. Thanks for that, it's pretty cool and my android L cm theme works with it so yay :D

Hey guys...

I unlocked my bootloader.

Then flashed the recovery and went into cwm from fastboot.

It was working fine then. But then I forgot to put the superSu.zip in the sdcard. So to put it there I selected the reboot option. It asked two things.

I said no in both the screens.

Now when I go again to recovery it says "No command" with a broken android logo...

So what do I do now? Should I flash the recovery again???

Ps help.

FAIL: Rooting Moto G 4.4.4 Stock

Hello,

Today I updated my Moto G to 4.4.4 after downgrading by flashing stock firmware. Now I want to root my device again. I followed every step instructed in this thread. I tried Moto Tool as well. But I get following errors on CMD

1. Mismatching download size

2. Preflash validation failed

3. On Moto G screen - "No Command"

Here is the screenshot of the CMD action.

Fyi, I tried CWM non touch & touch both recovery images. I have all the required drivers installed on my laptop. I also tried searching answers in other forums but no luck.

Can somebody please be nice & help me root the thing?
[Moto G General] pfufle:
Reflash the 4.4.4 firmware manually without the batch command file...The batch command file often ends up skipping some core boot loader files... Once you reflash the firmware manually, then try again...
[Moto G General] Dark Mushroom:
I think you should flash the recovery again from fastboot. I don't realy think you should flash supersu over recovery as cwm will automaticaly install su binary when it's not installed(it will show you a message wether you want to install super user or not on exit. You must answer yes). After you reboot, go to play store and install supersu. All Done! Your device is rooted.

Hope it helps :D

Just a FYI guys.

I followed this method & rooted successfully.

So I thought I'll be stuck at 4.4.2 because I have a custom recovery.

But few days back I received the 4.4.4 OTA and installed it.

It did reboot quite a lot, and just as I was about to flash 4.4.2 stock, it stabilized and I haven't had a problem since.

In fact I used to have wifi drops, not anymore.. :thumbsup:

Didn't work for me

I tried the procedure exactly as mentioned but didn't work for me.

After flashing the recovery.img file I went to the next step of flashing the SU.

To flash the SU I tried booting into CWM recovery, but the message I get is "No Command" with a broken android icon.

After a while the system boots in normal mode.

I was in KitKat 4.4.4 when I started the procedure.

I tried re-flashing, erasing recovery through fastboot, nothing worked.
[Moto G General] pfufle:
You are supposed to flash the recovery and then directly boot into it right after that...a normal boot before will reflash the stock recovery...copy your supersu zip before flashing the recovery or use sideload and root right after flashing the recovery...

and i tried erasing recovery and reflashing it with adb..no use !!
[Moto G General] pfufle:
Okay see...When you flash a custom recovery, your stock ROM tries to reflash the stock recovery back on the next boot....So directly after flashing the recovery via fastboot, you are supposed to boot into the recovery and flash superSU zip...Do not reboot first and then boot into the recovery....Sideload is nothing but an adb command that let's you flash a zip located on your PC when your device is in the recovery mode and is connected to your PC
