[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATRIXXIRTA:
A factory reset will not bring back your stock rom.

When you flashed PAC you replaced the system partition.

Try extracting the boot.img from the PAC rom .zip and flash it through fastboot.

You should ALWAYS create a nandroid backup of your stock rom before you flash ANYTHING!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gallici96:
Hello guys, first of all i want to excuse me for my bad english. This is my problem. I have purchased a few days ago the m8 so I would like to sell the m7 I got. Unfortunatly I had unlocked the bootloader with HTC dev, I put root permissions and I had installed the Android Revolution HD 62.00. Obviously I would like to sell it in a stock situation , or at least like stocks. To utilize a ruu but I have read everywhere that you need to be s- off , especially if you come from a newer software version than the ruu. The problem is that I can not do the s off in any way. I tried with revone, with firewater and also with Rumrunner . The drivers are updated, I use Windows 8.1 and I tried also with win 7 but nothing. I leave you a picture of the bootloader so you can find all the details. The question is, can I somehow make this blessed s off and return to stock? Maybe can I downgrade the hboot without s-off to do the s-off? In the worst case, can I install a ROM that is virtually indistinguishable from a stock (perhaps with the ability to receive OTA updates) so that you can sell? And if so, which one?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stovie_steve:
You need to first achieve s-off. Install an earlier 4.2 ROM like an earlier ARHD or earlier Viper ROM if possible and retry rumrunner

If you get s-off (which seems to be very difficult with hboot 1.56) you will then need to install an earlier stock RUU.exe like 1.29.401.x ROM. Before doing this though you would need to downgrade your hboot to 1.44

At this point you can lock the bootloader, return to s-on and update via OTA to latest version

On nokias, you can dial a number with the headset in by holding the call button down; after a few seconds u hear a beep. After this beep, you can say the naem of the contact, and it will begin to call the contact.

Is this possible on the Universal; ie. is there a way to launch the voice command program using the wired headset?

Thanks
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dpshptl:
I used my phone this morning and it was fine. A few hours later I went to use it and it would not turn on. It is fully charged. I am running go launcher. I usually don't get asked which launcher I want to open it with when I wake my phone. But that screen flashed very quickly but I could not choose as the screen went blank very quickly. The screen was blank but the back button and the home button were lit up. I hit the power button so many times but nothing happens except the the 2 buttons lighting up. I went into recovery try to boot from there but nothing hapeens. It just goes to the HTC screen and hangs there. Its been on that screen for 10-15 and then I go back into recovery and still nothing. I tried to do a factory reset. It went to a screen with a picture of the phone and 2 green arrows going in a circle and a green down arrow inside the circle.

I have no idea what is going on. I have not done anything new to the phone. It is stock and I got Kit kat on it a few weeks back. Everything has been fine up until this morning. I understand the go launcher could cause a problem opening up the phone. But I don't understand why I cant do a factory reset from recovery. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dpshptl:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imbroken80:
Hi,

I have a question regarding the ROM linked in the thread. Is this the official ROM or is this a modified version? So if I install this ROM on my XT1032, will it get the updates directly OTA from Google?

Thanks
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antarix:
It may get ota unless you alter the system with custom recovery or root it.

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

Yep. First I panicked but after booting up the rom I got network and was happy to ignore it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelegendofzeth:
No one knows because there is no OTA for test this. But I believe it will receive because it was made of the system-pull of original GPE Moto G.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adizz4:
Once I do this, how do I get back to non-gpe?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelegendofzeth:
Download your stock rom here and flash it with a flashall.bat that is inside the zip of each rom there. Or you can do manually. It's the same thing of those commands above, just change archive's names. Some will have system.img divided into three parts, so, flash in the sequence.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeslieKawiti:
noob question?

this may be a really noobish question but how do i extract "Google Play Edition - falcon.tgz"

everytime i run mfastboot it closes.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robin0800:
I used WinRAR but I believe 7zip will also work
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelegendofzeth:
Use WinRAR to do so. You can't run mfastboot. Run "cmd.exe" and follow the guide. You have to cd a workspace.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeslieKawiti:
Misunderstood

I got it to work, my problem was i was expecting the entire folder not a .tar image.

I then realized that i had to extract the tar file and use 7zip or winrar to extract all the files out of that one. Fileception if you will.

Thanks again for writing this tutorial.

Hi does anyone have a mirror for the stock firmware.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
The first step (fastboot flash partition gpt.bin) gave me the error

"(bootloader) Preflash validation failed

FAILED (remote failure)"

Anyone know why?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
^^ The bootloader validation error happens when you are trying to flash an older bootloader. Does your phone have the 41.18 bootloader?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
No, it looks like 41.13(*). How do I go about updating it? I did a quick Google and couldn't find anything very promising.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Which phone are you using? Current ROM? Unlocked bootloader?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
Yeah, I should have included that info; sorry. It's a US GSM 16gb - XT1034. ROM is stock 4.4.2 (KOT49H.M004). Bootloader is unlocked.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
In the original post, it refers to the xt1033 and xt1032. I have no experience with the xt1034.

Perhaps the difference in model # is causing the error.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
That would be unfortunate, especially since the thread title says "convert any Moto G..."
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I could be wrong but many of the XT1032 phones only have 8 GB of RAM and yours has 16 which may be why the bootloader and gpt files cannot be flashed.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
Hmm. If you're right, then that's unfortunate. I suppose I can try to re-lock the bootloader and accept OTAs to 4.4.4, then see what the bootloader version is.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
OTA updates may work with an unlocked bootloader but probably need stock recovery, and no root.

I was able to OTA update my stock 4.4.4 to 5.02 with a locked bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
I think I've got stock recovery, but I'm not sure, since when I try to go to recovery, the phone just shuts down. I've tried re-flashing the stock recovery from the zip in the OP, but I get a "hab check failed" message.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The stock recovery from the OP may not be for your phone.

You may be able to find your stock ROM here: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=filename&order=ASC&show=100&page=1
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfick3:
You don't need to re-lock the bootloader in order to accept an OTA. As long as you aren't rooted and have the stock recovery you can get an OTA.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
That's good to know. It seems the problem is my recovery is messed up. I'll try to sort that out with the link audit13 gave me.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfick3:
I'm on my phone (XT1034, 16 gig like yours) right now so can't really get you the link, but you can search for the restore stock firmware thread and there will be a link to file factory where you can download the 4.4.4 US retail firmware (I assume you're is the unlocked retail version) and there are directions to flash via fastboot. I've done that a couple times with no problems to get a fresh phone. That will also give you the correct stock recovery.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
Yeah, that's the link I was referring to, that audit13 gave me. It's downloading now, but at ~100 KB/s, so I'll continue with this later this afternoon. I wish this were as easy as Nexus phones/my N4 weren't dying.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
Alright, I flashed everything from that factory image. The phone is on 4.4.4, with bootloader 41.13. Selecting "Recovery" in the bootloader and hitting power just results in the phone apparently turning back off. This doesn't seem normal, but I don't have experience with Motorola phones.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfick3:
That's the same bootloader I have. If you are in the bootloader you have to use the down volume to move to the option you want. Then you use the up volume to select, not power. [emoji1]
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
Ah, that does it. Ok, so now the question is can I convert my 4.4.4 XT1034 to GPE? By just following the instructions in the OP, or will I need any adjustments?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfick3:
That i don't know. I haven't done it.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfick3:
So, did you successfully convert to a GPE?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanhooah:
I did, but it's currently not detecting my SIM card, which works fine in my Nexus 4. I suppose I'll try flashing a few different radio packages. Related to that, any idea why most of them have two files, but some just have radio.img?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alfick3:
Nope, sorry. I have no idea.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ankushv:
To get my xt1033 to work on gpe lollipop I had to manually flash xt1032 modem after which my sim card was detected .

Im using a XT1032 16GB EU retail.

Does anyone have the same problem?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomazon:
Factory Reset possible?

Great guide. Two tiny questions: Does this method allow you to Factory Reset in the normal way? (Settings and/or Recovery). If so, can I follow your guide with my current XT1032 GPe 5.1?

I'm asking this because I can't do a Factory Reset (error message on the recovery screen robot). Reset must be done via fastboot (mfastboot erase userdate & cache).

I followed one of those Youtube guides and the guy didn't mentioned this.

Flashed GPe 4.4.4 KitKat and the two updates jumped immediately one after another.

I'm really enjoying GPe and i'm planning to stay here for a long time, but I really want a clean installation that can make use of the new anti theft system included in 5.1

I'm on stock recovery, no root, just unlocked bootloader, thanks in advance.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noeldiego:
I fixed the process for me

I know this thread is a little old, but i came here just to tell that the line of code "mfastboot continue" was ruining everything for me. My XT1033 was rebooting and this line was telling it to continue booting the system that was already installed. When i removed this line, everything went smoothly.

This was my last try to install slimkat 4.4.2. It was not giving any signal, but when i did this GPE->Slimkat, everything is working now.

Thanks for this guide! Just mention that this line is optional for some users.

(i didn't read all the pages, so if this was already mentioned, forgive me)
