I think all XT1097 firmwares should be close enough. I can't give to many recommendations, but a radio with compatible baseband freq should work. I'm guessing flashing a mexico nextel firmware 4.4.4 should to it. You always have yours and others radios to work with too.

Still learning, just got this phone last week.

Can I use "XT1095_VICTARA_TMO-RETUS_6.0_MPES24.49-18-7_cid9_CFC.xml.zip" for my XT1092 on CM14.1? In past it had stock Android 6.0.

People may have noticed that you don't get OTAs after following this guide. The latest OTA is on August 2016 security level.

If anyone want an OTA zip for converted xt1095 reply with baseband version, build number and system version.

Got the OTA

I got OTA update for 6.0 brother.. but I lost signal after update.. so i downgraded again for 5.1 and I got my signal back.. the reason behind the signal lost was the conversation of XT 1092 to XT 1095..

Brother I request you plz guide me how to convert back to stock and relock bootloader and go back to XT 1092 to XT 1095.. :rolleyes:

XT1092->XT1095 on Marshmallow to get US LTE bands

I am on Marshmallow 6.0 on my XT1092 Indian Retail variant. I'll be relocating to the US this year and to make my phone work with most US carriers, I am thinking to convert my XT1092 to XT1095 Pure Edition. I believe doing this will enable the LTE bands 2/3/4/5/7/17 which are supported on XT1095 and works with majority US carriers. Correct me if I'm wrong. Plus I wanted to know how to go about this process as the process listed in this thread is for KK->Lollipop upgrade while I'm currently on Marshmallow (Resurrection Remix ROM).

Thanks in advance!

Can i ask if you know....if i install stock RETLA to my device if if the stock is TEFLA i had problem with signal or relock bootloader?two of them is xt1097.
[X 2014 General] Darius_bd:
No idea , to be honest. But I think if both are the same number version there shouldn't be a problem. As always, back up *everything* (including the modem) if later you need to restore.

I think in the worst case, you'd just loose 4G but keep 3G. Then again, I don't think it would be difficult to find a TEFLA ROM

[X 2014 General] papsr6:
I think you have problems with this convert.

The problem is the modems and base bands.

If you devices can't support the European bands you have problem.if you flash xt1092 all rom you have to flash after the xt1096 modem and baseband to support only devices bands supports.

I don't know if I help you with my bad English....

anyone here know how to root an untouched XT1095? :)
[X 2014 General] papsr6:
You can read the rhtead for that in the forum.

Search for that end read please.
[X 2014 General] borxnx:
Yes.

It's been a while though. The last time I was messing with one, years ago, it was very important to NOT update to Lollipop before unlocking your bootloader, as the LP update removed the "Enable OEM Unlock" toggle in Developer Options which would render the device unable to be unlocked. I have no idea if newer firmwares ever fixed this issue so you may want to do some of your own learning on that. Also there may be other root methods, like Magisk or a CF-AutoRoot or something. Again, my information is almost as old as your phone is.

First unlock your bootloader (https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a)

Once your bootloader is unlocked, you can OTA update to the latest firmware if you want. The rest is pretty basic, old-school Android stuff.

Download TWRP to your computer (https://dl.twrp.me/victara/twrp-3.1.1-0-victara.img.html)

Download SuperSU to your phone (https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip)

Flash TWRP in fastboot

Flash SuperSU in TWRP

bam.

You know, XDA is a good source for all of this information, and just so happens to be where I got it from. But I do like enjoy spoonfeeding occasionally, especially when it takes me back to simpler times.
[X 2014 General] cliq:

Flash XT1095 on already modded XT1093?

I have XT1093 and installed Lineage OS with Oreo 8.1.0 on it with TWRP. But it is buggy, problems in bluetooth, video recording, some apps crash and its slow. I like to go back to most updated stock rom which is 6.0 on XT1095.

I downloaded VICTARA_TMO_XT1095_6.0_MPE24.49-18_cid9_CFC.xml.zip from here as suggested in first post but unable to flash it using TWRP. What should I do differently here?

I think I am way past backing up my rom and other steps from first post because I was already on Lineage OS. What am I doing wrong?
[X 2014 General] texascowboy:
Old thread I know but hoping someone can give some help. I have a Verizon XT1096 That was upgraded to 6.0 through another thread. Now I need it as an AT&T work phone. I know it will work by just swapping the sim but I would like to change it to a Pure Edition. I have read (hope I didnt miss anything, my eyes are tired.....lots of pages) this thread and followed the instructions. When I flash the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and the "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" the command prompt says everythings ok, but on the phone screen, its shows "hab check failed for....." each one. I continued with the flash, hoping it was nothing and restarted. After booting, I see the O.S. is the exact same as before, its running the verizon 6.0 that was installed before, so none of the flash worked. Ive tried multiple times and had no luck. Any help would be great. Thanks!
[X 2014 General] drolgnir:
The EFS back up is contained within this twrp backup, I think it contains your IMEI, and other device specific information. Others may NOT want to flash the EFS, as it may cause irreversible damage without proper backups on hand. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks for you contribution to this thread!
[X 2014 General] usandthem1973:
Man, you really are a lifesaver, I followed these instructions to the letter and I was able to at least go back to stock 4.4.4 and get signal :D

I'm hesitant to go through the whole process again to get lollipop, I had the device just one day before I lost signal.

Anyways, thanks so much for being so cool, good night:good:

problems with back up

Ihave xt1097 on stock 4.4.4 with twrp 2.8.3.0 I am unable to do backup !!!!! Errno=13..... Have installed busybox last version.... Also tried to change the name of back up (put short name)......it says:"e: unable to create folder /data/media/0/TWRP (errno=13) failed to create backup folder". But i can see folder directory.... What to do?
[X 2014 General] drolgnir:
Another weird issue, mine is I can see my twrp folder in recovery MTP in windows and recovery file manager, but not when fully booted. It looks like a file in ES file explorer and windows.
[X 2014 General] skulldreamz:
My pure is on its way so I'm not %100 sure but under wipe in twrp type yes to format data and you should now be able to make backups. That should correct any permission issues that are arising. Just back anything up on your internal sdcard that you want to keep because it will wipe the storage.
[X 2014 General] drolgnir:
Yes that sounds like what needs to happen! Thanks.
[X 2014 General] krest14:
At least I will try... Thx for advice.... Nevertheless I do NOT trust TWRP and teamwin at all!!!! Twrp soft bricked my i9500 during update to lollipop cyanogen... I had to install cwm in order to correct everything.... Now twrp f\\=cks my brain on moto x with this backup(( I am 4 years on cyanogen and i am a bit experienced with unlocking and changing on custom firmware.... Never experienced such stupid problems related with a custom recovery. Wish CWM make recovery for moto x....
[X 2014 General] samagas:
About the problem seing backup files in the SD, I've noticed that one option is to change the file's location to "Music" folder. Whenever you try copy something in the SD from windows, just copy inside the Music folder. Once done you can place your files in its proper location with your file manager

works for telcel XT1097

I can confirm this guide working on the same way for a XT1097 from telcel México.

Followed patiently and almost all was covered, if not or not too clear, i managed without any trouble, i did read that on colombia the twitter account of moto said they probably launch the update on the last weeks of January, but since now i can be on lollipop with my modem i am ok, so guys, backup your modem.

BTW. i personally used terminal emulator to dd the modem files, and then i moved them to the computer from the sdcard, and when reflashing the modem for the first time, it hanged like 5 minutes, i cancelled the procedure(risky but done), rebooted again on bootloader and flashed again, same thing, no signal, erased modems, flashed and voila.

Battery Duration

This update does not have battery drain problems? All another next OTA updates will need to be with TWRP?

Thank you so much.
[X 2014 General] ortegaguillermo:
I didn't install twrp, just booted it, I am completely stock even without root, I didn't experience the memory leak yet, but I think that I will get the updates soon since I am on pure edition now, and if not, I will just reflash the original modems and update and reflash my branded modems, and this build is so far so good with battery life, but I am not a heavy user anymore, just regular use
[X 2014 General] fbeyers:
I can confirm that I was able to convert a Telcel XT1097 (Mexico) to Pure Edition XT1095 following this guide, and now I'm on lollipop and rooted.

What do I need to do to receive future OTA updates?

do I need to un-root and re-lock the bootloader?
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
What you mean about battery drain problems? Mine is just working great, the only issue is Google Play Services and that is a google bug, not from lollipop, but after setting Location in "only device" my battery is just great. In future updates you can install via OTA or recovery because it is official update, not a SOAK.

Glad it worked for you!

You need to unroot your device to receive OTA, in my case will wait to the ZIP to make a sideload installation just like this one.
[X 2014 General] blyndfyre:
Will we need to unroot and flash TMO modem to sideload future update Zip's? Will data be wiped each update this method?
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
You will need to unroot to receive the OTA; via sideload I don't think you will need to flash again the modems, because last week I installed the Liquid Smooth room and I did not lose the signal even though my base band changed. No, your data will not be deleted via OTA or sideload because is an official update, of course, you will need the stock recovery.

regards
[X 2014 General] blyndfyre:
Thanks. I'll just use the unroot option of SuperSU when the time comes.

Why must we use stock recovery and not TWRP? Modified recovery won't allow the update I assume?
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
you are welcome my friend.

Exactly, the TWRP is not compatible with the official updates, maybe in some point some developer will make a zip compatible with TWRP but in the meanwhile to install the stock recovery just start your phone in bootloader mode and flash it via mfasboot

Basebande Backup

Hello there, i have some issues triying to back up my baseband but i really dont understand how to do that. I have a my sim unlocked and i dont know if i have to use the same baseband that i actually have.
[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
What kind of issues?

just plug your device as normal to your PC and run the follow commands

adb shell

su (after this you have to grand SU permissions to ADB on your phone)

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem of=/sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin

adb pull /sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fsg of=/sdcard/fsg.bin

adb pull /sdcard/fsg.bin

after that you will see two files on your SD, those are the baseband modem.

You have to backup your modem in order to gain signal again in lollipop, just in case you are not in XT1095 Pure edition. You can try to update and see if your signal is ok, if is not you have to flash your modem back.
[X 2014 General] samagas:
Maybe I can help you [MENTION=6339989]lxalexl[/MENTION] You just have to open your adb terminal (I assume you know what it is since you must be rooted at this point) and do as you've been told. I'll guide you:

adb shell <---Opens a shell

su <---Guives you root access

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem of=/sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin <---Copy modem's file from your phone to the sdcard

NOW I'm guessing that you typed "adb pull /sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin" and then you got an error message. Why? beacuse "adb pull" isnt a shell command and we are in a shell. Don't worry, lets just skip that and proceed with the second file we need to back up.

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fsg of=/sdcard/fsg.bin <---Copy the other modem file we need to back up to the sdcard

At this point we already have our backup stored in the sdcard but we are going to save it in our HDD. Lets keep going, close the adb terminal and open it again (easy, practical, noob way to exit the shell) and type:

adb pull /sdcard/NON-HLOS.bin <---This command copies the NON-HLOS.bin from the sdcard to your adb folder

adb pull /sdcard/fsg.bin <---This command copies the NON-HLOS.bin from the sdcard to your adb folder

Now if you look at your adb folder you can see the two files safely backed up in your computer.

Also you can just copy the NON-HLOS.bin, fsg.bin files the same way you copy a photo from the sd card instead of doing it throug the adb terminal but probably you wont be able to see those files in Windows. A quick way to solve that problem is to use whatever file manager you like in your phone and place the files in the "Music" folder, then you can see the files in Windows and therefore copy them.

Hi.

Well i have a XT1097 (Nextel) i just wanna root it, at this moment i dont need upgrade to Android 5.0. I'd like to know if anyone has the original firmware from Nextel or Telcel (i need just works on my XT1097), flashable with ADB commands.

Thanks.

And a question: my device says: Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking.

Any idea why?
[X 2014 General] borxnx:
Is Nextel's XT1097 allowed to be unlocked? If it is, make sure you take out all the spaces from the bootloader unlock code that you pull in ADB.

If it's not unlockable, no root for you :(

In the original post there is a link to a "how to root" thread, and in the second post of this thread there is a link to the Nextel TWRP backup, as far as I know is the only one rolling around. Also you don't need to install TWRP since you can just boot to it without replacing the orginal recovery.

[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
you dont need the stock recovery to check for updates, the OTA messages for updates will arrive no matter if you are root or custom recovery, but you will not be able to install it unless you are stock...

I dont have the original recovery as a single file for the xt1097, only the whole zip file in my cloud, you have two options, download the entire zip from here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57556621&postcount=12 or you can ask [MENTION=4678594]samagas[/MENTION] if he has the stock recovery as a single file.

[X 2014 General] cmatuk:
Hey paisanos!!... I think we are supposed to keep it in english so I will. except for this part... Está chido tener cuates nacionales!!!. Back to topic, what's the lates release for the Moto X?. I did the whole process and I got my phone running in the stupidly named "Retail" MX system thanks to the links,. I was a very vey happy Nexus user since the One and then they released that phabllet... I don't like big phones . So I went for the X in a hurry cos my Nexus fell on a stone floor, crashed the screen, frontal camera and it lost its bluetooth and the WiFi antena got some damage too. F*CK.. Anyways, since I owned a Nexus I got the OTAS and I could just grab them from Google's Dev Page and all that and we were in version 5.0.2 if i recall correctly . I got the Moto X with Telcel and I just figured out something. Telcel is blocking the Lollipop update because there are still some VERY used apps that don't run on 5.0. Banamex's app is an example it got support for Lollipop a week ago. The "retail" version, Motorla's atempt to make buyers use Moto Maker which I wish I did... or to go to the actual store and "live the whole experience" but pay a higher price. Those phones got Lollipop a long time ago. The thing is... I rooted and modified my new Moto X and I just wanted to know if there's a newer version that I'm not aware of. Im not getting any notifications and it says Im up to date but I don't trust it completely. It was a long post but I think Its interesting that Apple got away with pushing updates themselves and Google is forced to wait till carriers aproove. Saludos amigos!!!
[X 2014 General] ainomx:
Hello paisano,

Almost all new lollipop versions for Moto X are 5.0.1, now it depends of the version you installed to your Moto X when you will receive ota notification (still you need all stock to update).

For Nextel lollipop update, below is the version installed.

[X 2014 General] juliospinoza:
Not related but I am going to tell you that I am using Nextel since 8 years ago and I am really happy with it. The service is great (not so much coverage as Telcel) and in the main cities the internet is awesome, like 10 MB average on 3G.

I used to have the Moto G and the Moto X is other thing, not related in speed software hardware etc. You will be more than happy with you new phone. By the way Nextel just release the android 5.0.1 but I have the 5.0.2 Chinese and is working awesome.
