[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajinpanthayil:
AFAIK preflash verification is done by moto's bootloader when it is in locked state. And the error was due to downgrading the firmware (4.4.4 to 4.4.2). I would suggest you to check whether your bootloader is unlocked or not. If locked, unlock it and try again.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlemaire:
My bootloader has been unlocked from the beginning. The message: "your device is unlocked "appears each time I power the phone.

I tried to install the 4.4.2 french firmware because there is no 4.4.4 french firmware.

For information, I bought my phone 6 months ago with the 4.4.2 firmware and I updated to 4.4.4 two months ago.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liveroy:
Just download for example UK 4.4.4 and see if it works. Always use mfastboot.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlemaire:
Actually for my motorola g XT 1032, there is only the US rom verizon available on sbf droid developer website for XT1032 : Android 4.4.4 Blur_Version.210.12.41.falcon_cdma.Verizon.en.US.

This is the one I first tried to install with no success making mistakes and that gave me a soft brick.

Should I retry with this one with the mfastboot method, even though my phone is a french one?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k-kuchen:
The Firmware you mention is for XT1028 (CDMA Verizon, as the filename states). I wouldn't flash this on a XT1032
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlemaire:
So can someone indicates me exactly which firmware I should flash on my phone please.

k-kuchen

, for information, I unfortunately flashed the falcon cdma verizon firmware on my phone. This is this action who brought to soft brick on my phone

Can you please explain me how do you see which firmware version is for XT1032 on the sbf droid developer website please.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k-kuchen:
I don't think they are labeled on this site. Any XT1032 (i.e. falcon_umts) Firmware should be fine for you. EU, UK, US, DE, FR.

To avoid problems, use the Android Version that matches your bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlemaire:
Thank you for your quick answer. But I already tried to flash this one Android 4.4.2 Blur_Version.176.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.FR with no success. And I get the following message: pre flash validation failed.

I don't find any 4.4.4 original firmware (US, UK, EU, FR, DE) on the net. Can indicate where I can find one please.

I remind that my phone was updated to 4.4.4 two months ago.

What should I do?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodemic:
I am on the same page, there are no 4.4.4 images and i'm stuck with a black screen after the bootloader unlocked warning
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k-kuchen:
Ah, OK. I didn't know that 4.4.4 aren't available, yet. lost101 is the expert for stock ROMs. Maybe he can help you two out
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodemic:
I found the brasilian retail 4.4.4 but since I'm still new I can't post a link :/ hopefully it works

edit: sent op the link through a message :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k-kuchen:
Make sure it's not for XT1033 aka falcon_umtsds
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlemaire:
I found all the 4.4.4 stock firmware in this thread : http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688

[MENTION=5491423]k-kuchen[/MENTION] : do I have to install the 4.4.4 firmware one even though I bought the phone with the 4.4.2 firmware and then updated 2 months ago with 4.4.4?

Because I installed the wrong firmware (US verizon cdma 4.4.4) in a wrong way in my XT1032 moto G that resulted in a softbrick (but still acess to the fastboot mode and the recovery mode after that), is it still possible to flash 4.4.4 firmware (the good one this time) or is the phone dead? Should I use mfastboot method again?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodemic:
oooh I didn't find that post, thanks :D I think you can still flash the firmware but don't rely on me since I'm clearly not an expert
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k-kuchen:
As far as I understand you need 4.4.4 because your bootloader is also updated now. You can try mfastboot, but there is nothing to flash as we found out earlier.

The thread you linked are ROMs for flashing with a custom recovery. That won't help you with unbricking I guess. Because you need a fastboot flashable factory image.

Like I said earlier... lost101 can probably answer these questions better than me :D
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodemic:
I have unbricked my device, I installed a custom recovery using moto tools. good luck :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed

----------------------------------------------------

The user has updated to Android 4.4.4 via firmware image or OTA update. They would now also have the latest version of the Bootloader.

The user will encounter 'Preflash validation failed' when attempting to flash a 4.4.2 firmware image. If the error still occurs, even with a 4.4.4 firmware image, then unlocking bootloader will be necessary.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlemaire:
Thank you k-kuchen and lost101 for jour help. Indeed my pre flash validation failed problem came from the fact that I tried to flash 4.4.2 firmware although my phone was updated to 4.4.4. As a consequence, I recover from soft brick while flashing the right firmware with mfastboot method.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totalfailz:
Sorry if this question has been answered before, I was wondering if there is any non-rooted GPE roms out there?

I have seen quite a few GPE roms but they all have been pre-rooted with busybox installed.

I know about the RUU conversion and its option for the non-rooted version but I would prefer to just stick with installing roms through the recovery.

Does anyone know a rom out there that has this?

Any help would be great!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TikiThePug:
I don't think this exists. However, you can always UNroot after installing any custom ROM.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Margel11:
I need your help guys!

Just yesterday, i was looking for a custom rom for my xperia z ultra. The reason why i want to install custom rom was to get rid of the NFC and BLUETOOTH problem that i was encountering. So i have successfully installed a rom from here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2800414). but it was like a disaster. THERE IS NO MESSAGING APP so basically i cannot send or receive messages, the NFC is still not working and still my bluetooth cannot detect anything, and the Model number of my device changed from c6833 to c6806. I dont know where to start now. All i want now is to go back to its original state. I am willing to pay/donate to someone who can help me bring this device back to its original rom/build/model/etc.Thanks in advance.[/INDENT][/INDENT]

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
you flash the .ftf with flashtool.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] lideweister:
That's right, enable usb debugging in developer settings and then use flashtool to install the ftf. There's a link to a tutorial in the link that I posted earlier and a downloadlink for flashtool and the ftf file too.

Yes for messaging app you will need to download Hangouts app from playstore. Its strange because I use the same ROM on my C6833 and everything works as it should. Perhaps you have a hardware problem.

[Samsung Gear Live] sobek235:
Hi,

Hope you can help me.

Situation:

In the past i had the octamod rom on the watch, but i wanna go back to stock.

Recovery...and stock update on Version 4.4W.1 but after the restart of the watch --> message "Install android wear on your phone"

I did it several times..restart phone and different ways...also the watch....but the watch can't be found on my android wear on nexus 5!

And yes..bluetooth and sw is the right version... :)

So what can i do?

I tried to put on the octamod again, adbd drivers works so well, but

"adb devices" respond me this message: R3AF601B1HW unauthorized

And so it*s not possible to do anything with adb.

Who can help me in this case?
[Samsung Gear Live] finalbillybong:
I have similar the same situation.Same phone too. However my adb is working fine. I have been able to flash Octamod again.

As for the watch not showing on the phone after using the restore tool, I have not been able to find a fix as of yet.....

It's Octamod or nothing as of now.
[Samsung Gear Live] compchick813:
I was also on octamod but was finally able to get updated to KGW42N and paired with the watch. This is what I did.

In case you didn't know you can get into recovery/fastboot by holding down power until the Gear Live logo shows. Keep holding power and keep swiping from top left to bottom right.

I was running octamod but wanted to update to KGW42N. I tried V3 of the restore tool below (options 4, 5, then 6) which installed stock KGW42N but then couldn't pair.

http://xdaforums.com/gear-live/development/utility-gear-live-watch-tool-t2846696

Then I tried:

- Restored KMV78Y TWRP backup

- Reset watch

- Wiped Android Wear on phone

- Rebooted phone

- Paired watch

- Couldn't flash downloaded KGW42N OTA zip w/ TWRP:

set_metadata: some changes failed

error executing updater binary zip

- I then remembered that there was a V2 of the restore tool linked above so then I used that (options 4, 5, then 6). This flashed KMV78Y but wasn't a fresh install for some reason (no setup).

- After a minute or two I got a system update prompt which updated successfully

- Watch remained paired since I had re-paired it above

- Reflashed TWRP
[Samsung Gear Live] sobek235:
Ohyahh...you saved my day!

I did it your way.

Used the V2 of this tool (options 4, 5, then 6) and finally it was possible to update on 4.4W.1.

thx!
[Samsung Gear Live] compchick813:
Glad it worked!
[Samsung Gear Live] finalbillybong:
Using V2 of the restore tool fixed my issue.

I just did option 6...

How does one get by the Unauthorized issue? I cant do anything with V2 of the restore tool. Yes, I did V3 1st, oops. Thoughts and help? Not following the above. Trying to do a recovery on the watch now and it seems to be stuck.

Thanks in advance.

Bill

UPDATE: I forced the V2 of the restore tool. It took and I am now receiving updates. I am currently at software version 5.0.2. Build LWX49K. It is currently downloading another update. I hope my issues are now cleared up. I had received the watch with a developers build. Received a partial refund, and decided to work with the recovery tool. It has taken some time, but I think I'm good to go!
[Samsung Gear Live] bill-e:
