Hello...im new to this device...i have a xt1096, i dont use verizon services coz im on gsm carriers here in my country, from my reading on op, to convert i should downgrade to 4.4.4 (if im not mistaken).

If i have stock 5.1 (with plans to unlock the bootloader), can i just flash the xt1095 mm directly or should i follow exactly the first post and downgrade to 4.4.4?

Thanks in advance...

Edit: on second read...i think i can just flash the xt1095 mm directly? Pls correct me...really new to this device..
[X 2014 General] AGISCI:
No, do NOT downgrade. Downgrade then taking OTAs causes bricks!

Just unlock your bootloader then flash the 6.0 MM firmware, no downgrade is necessary.
[X 2014 General] demonshouter:
Thanks, will try that as soon as i solve my adb problem...

Btw, can we use rsd lite to flash? I used to use it on my xt910.

Btw on second post, fastboot flash partition and flash motoboot are written first? I mean when the device is not on fastboot mode? Should be boot to bootloader first, isnt? Im sorry for noob questions, just trying to get things right...thank you.
[X 2014 General] AGISCI:
Yes you can use RSDLite.

All commands must be flashed from fastboot mode on the phone. Adb is not necessary and also does not work to flash this.

[X 2014 General] Danish Fayaz:
AGISCI, bro can you help me with something. I've just converted my XT1097 VICTARA_TEFLA to XT1095 TMO. My phone was XT1097 pure edition. But it has low earpiece volume. I thought perhaps changing region might make it better, but it didn't. Previously I had AT&T XT1097 and its earpiece volume was amazing (the best one I've ever used) can you please assist on how can I increase it on my current phone? It shows full but its really hard to listen to the other person.

i have a big problem, now have cm13 rom and i wanna put stock 6.0 but my pc no recognizes my device in fastboot mode,

now that I have to do to make it xt1095?
[X 2014 General] AGISCI:
Sorry, but I have not heard of this problem before. Maybe the hardware is faulty?

I assume you have a custom recovery. If so just flash this rom from your custom recovery:

Just went from 4.4.4 to 6.0 using the instructions in post 2 on an ATT one. I probably should have did the carrier unlock but oh well, I'll do that later and hope it works.

Only remaining question and Google search isn't helping much: Did the 6.0 update actually modify the baseband/radio? It flashed successfully but mine still shows MSM8974BP_42352121.25.09.24R VICTARA_ATT_CUST. Googling this brings me to some chinese sites with the firmware where this may be the most recent but I'm surprised to see it still append the ATT version in there.

Thanks!
[X 2014 General] shadowblade2652:
Step 1. Download latest kingroot and achieve a temporary root. (factory reset without any sign in, and clear the data/cache of the app if it fails). If you do it multiple times it will eventually work.

Step 2. Once root is achieved, download Sunshine and verify that your device passes the test. If it does, it'll give you the option to pay the $25 to receive a license. Once you pay, your bootloader will be unlocked.

Step 3. Using fastboot, flash twrp (google twrp recovery, and the official website has instructions).

Step 4. Flash any rom of your choice that is compatible.

I flashed the VICTARA_TMO_6.0_MPE24.49-18_cid9_CFC on my XT1085, it works but the wifi doesn't work. It can reach the routeur but not internet through it.

I had 2 pink warning during the flashing "hab check failed for boot" just after flash boot boot.img and "hab check failed for recovery" after flash recovery recovery.img

Does anyone has any idea of how to get the wifi back?

EDIT : Downgrade to stock 5.1 and did the automatic OTA upgrade to 6.0 and everything is working now :)
[X 2014 General] duchski:
This guide contains an error in step 3 (6.0 update)

The script for update to 6.0 TMO image contains an error as the image file VICTARA_TMO_XT1095_6.0_MPE24.49-18_cid9_CFC.xml.zip contains chunks instead of one single system.img file.

The script reflecting this file structure should look like this:

<code>

[X 2014 General] maxmotos:
So quick question, why doesn't the Baseband nor the System Version change properly?

From:

Base-band: MSM8974BP_21.47.127.04.55R,VICTARA_NIIMXSL_CUST

System Version: 22.21.11.victara_tmo.tmo.tmo.en.US.niimx

To:

Base-band: MSM8974BP_21.47.127.04.55R,VICTARA_TMO_CUST

System Version: 22.21.11.victara_tmo.tmo.tmo.en.US.TMO

is this something that is hardcoded? I have noticed this in the UTAGS block of the device but not able to change it.
[X 2014 General] Duo8:
Guess that just means it's stored somewhere else, maybe in hardware even but I doubt that.

The phone has over 10 partitions and we only flash/erase 6-8 of them I think.
[X 2014 General] maxmotos:
I'm thinking it might be what in the past was a flex file that sets the region code "similar to what Samsung does with CSC" I could be wrong but just my hunch.

I was able to pull and EFS release file from a "non branded MOTO E" and a MOTO E US Cellular here's what I got;

Hello, I just recently unlocked and root my XT1097 att running 5.1 currently. I was wondering what are the benefits of converting my phone from XT1097 to the pure edition (XT1095)? Is it worth running with the pure edition or just flash a custom rom like CyanogenMod to run Marshmellow?

Aside from that would a nandroid backup be sufficient or should I do the backup steps listed in the instruction? and what firmware would I download for XT1097 running 5.1(VICTORAR_TM_XT1095 or some other one)?

Sorry if this has been answered before. Thanks in advance :)
[X 2014 General] qynt:

Alas, after 18 days and over 350 attempts it finally worked! New life for my AT&T Moto X 2014, Yea!! Thank you ,thank you!

I might add that twice before (the last successful one) KingRoot said it was rooted but Sunshine said it was not. I successfully installed TWRP and since the initial post said nothing about 6.0 marshmallow I used TWRP to flash this ROM http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-2014/development/rom-xt1095-flashable-stock-rom-t3277874

Upgraded to 6.0 after this

Hey guys,

I did this and it worked flawlessly. However, when I updated to Marshmallow, the radios stopped working and I would get a "Error while searching for networks" if I went into 'Network Operators' to see if I could see any. Everything else works fine, wifi, bluetooth etc. My IMEI is still intact. My former XT1097, now showing as XT1095 is fine in all other respects. Any ideas what's going on? Can I downgrade?

I have an XT1085 on Android 5.1. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. Can someone point me to the right direction in what do I do now to convert, as I am somewhat confused with all the available options

EDIT: Successfully converted XT1085 to XT1095

I was on XT1085 Android 5.1 with unlocked bootloader and rooted. At first, I tried the directions in the 1st post, although the below code failed because there were no such partitions on my device.

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/partition of=/sdcard/gtp.bin
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/motoboot of=/sdcard/motoboot.img

With these steps, I was stuck on a screen that said "WARNING! Bootloader Unlocked"

Then, I tried the instructions on the second post and they worked perfectly. The phone booted up normally, and even installed all the OTAs up to Android 6.

After all, I inserted my SIM and i had no signal. After many "trial and error" tests, I flashed the basebands i pulled out of the phone BEFORE the conversion with these commands:

fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

Rebooted, and voila!!! Got signal, working data connection as well as LTE!

Your best bet is to just flash stock the hard way and reflash your ROM.

You could probably even make a backup in TWRP, flash whole MM stock firmware, reflash TWRP, and restore your backup and not even skip a beat.

Soooo close

I bought a refurbished XT1097 to replace my son's demolished XT1095. Turned out it came from Canada, had their firmware, baseband, etc.

I converted it to a PURE 1095 at 5.1, and everything seemed to be working.

Got the OTA push of 6.0. Took it. Everything seemed fine until I turned off the wifi to test the actual phone as a phone and discovered the sim wasn't looking so hot anymore.

I'm suspecting baseband issues, but as it was working in 5.1, and isn't in 6.0, I assumed they changed something again (similar to how they didn't work without some help at 5.0).

Currently phone is bootloader unlocked, but not yet rooted, running the stock 5.1 PURE 1095 firmware, and all is more or less well.

What do I need to do to preserve (or extract, and then reintroduce) working modem firmware/drivers/software or whatever jacked it up? Do I need to do a 5.1 root, then some extras, then back to 6.0, then sideload the extras I pulled out while it was 5.1?

Some before/after:

When installing 4.4.4 I still get no signal, and if i try to flash the 5.0 ota it throws an errror:

/modem/image/modem.b00 has unexpected contents

installation aborted
[X 2014 General] drolgnir:
Yeah you won't have signal with the xt1095 4.4.4 firmware, since when you flash it you are not using your modem/radio, if your following this threads instructions.

edit: At least I dont see how you can you just flashed a TMO modem?
[X 2014 General] usandthem1973:
But I can't flash the ota zip, I'm really stuck, I've read the instructions like 20 times
[X 2014 General] drolgnir:
ok well I dont want to take anything from this thread, but this is pretty much what I did.

I downloaded the 4.4.4 firmware from solartrans onedrive, and the 4.4.4 to 5.0.-11OTA.

I entered the bootloader and used mfastboot to flash it like this

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img **(this may not flash proper, its ok)

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot

now your phone is going to boot up, just keep clicking ok and next, dont set anything up or enter a google account. Now that you bypassed the setup,

copy your OTA to the download folder on your deivce.

reboot to stock recovery, this is Step #6 in this thread in the OP. Find your OTA.zip in the dowload folder and apply it. Once installed choose to reboot device BUT immediately hold the Vol down so you enter bootloader. This is where you do your

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot reboot

I didn't erase like many other threads point out as well.

If you OTA isn't working perhaps its corrupt? I'm guessing your running an unlocked XT1097? which carrier?

Here is a link to some firmwares, I never backed my modem up I just grabbed it from my 4.4.4 firmware in this mega drive.

Thanks, man.
[X 2014 General] usandthem1973:
I've done your procedure 3 times I think with no luck :( If I remember correctly, the first time I tried to do the guide in the OP my phone did have signal after flashing the 4.4.4 image provided, after that it never came back. I did the OP's procedure quite a few times, trying to restore both my backups of baseband and the ones provided by another user (also from an XT1097 Nextel).

I really don't know what am I doing wrong.

Leaving these first world problems aside for a minute, I really hope that you and everyone in this community have a wonderful new year :good:
[X 2014 General] drolgnir:
VERY frustrating! I stayed up all night trying to get lollipop recently. Same kinda issues. When I went back to my stock firmware it always had signal though. When I install my stock firmware I would follow the procedure in the flashfile.xml file, you can use notepad++ to read it. Looks cryptic inside but basically it goes like this. Perhaps you don't have access to stock firmware?

<step MD5="808a08faf96562849b056ec91954e8ee" filename="gpt.bin" operation="flash" partition="partition"/>

is the same as

mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin

or

<step MD5="b14c667cf09b3c802321cc565ca66779" filename="NON-HLOS.bin" operation="flash" partition="modem"/>

is

mfastboot flash NON-HLOS.bin modem

when ever going back to stock I would use all commands, even erase modemst1 and modemst2. And after flashing the lollipop motoboot.bin I would get an error flashing the kitkat stock motoboot.bin. This didn't seem to impair anything though. Hopefully this is clear and I didn't want to dismantle or hijack this thread in anyway, I just seen that some procedures were different then ones I used in solartrans thread recommended for other non xt1095 users(like xt1092/xt1097).

Good luck!

**wonder why so many issues and the problems and different methods of flashing the radio in the threads. My phone was a jerk about it for sure.
[X 2014 General] usandthem1973:
I don't have the stock firmware, I'm gonna try to find it. do you think that if I root my phone and try to restore the TWRP backup a user uploaded here I could get signal back? At this moment I really just want my phone to work again, even if it's on kitkat.

You can find you CID by doing a fastboot getvar all, it will look something like this 0x000E, just google 0x000E to decimal and you get 14, or whatever you cid is. This will help you find a close firmware match. [MENTION=4678594]samagas[/MENTION] in post #12 was nice enough to post a link to a twrp, but it includes the backup of his EFS as well now that I look in the RAR.

EFS contains you phones "IMEI, Wireless MAC Address, baseband version, Product Code, System ID and NV Data" or something like that. Did you restore that TWRP from him? perhaps it messed things up?

I live in Mexico, I didn't restore his backup, I just thought it could be an option, I will try to find my firmware with the steps you provided. I backed up the two files stated in the op but those don't contain the IMEI, right? How do I know if a firmware is close enough for me to use it?
