Due to the recent and multiple errors given by xda while trying to upload my files, I'll start publishing updates on androidfilehost.com again. As I'm on test time in the University <3 I haven't time to update as soon as I was. I'll make a big update deleting some lines from code, and with the merge of some files, maybe that will help to save around 4 mb's in the file:D but it will take at least a week. However, the v. 1.20 is here, supporting those devices and bootloaders. Happy flashing!

Considering we cannot downgrade, and 41.18 is a known working bootloader, why upgrading to 41.1A ?

What is the official bootloader from stock x1032 5.1 for example ?

I use Bootloader v41.18, and have heard of no evidence that anything newer is required for ROMs. Stock XT1032 5.1 OTA Updates and Firmware Images include Bootloader v41.1A.

Why do you say that no new bootloader is needed for XT1031 (Boost)? I cannot seem to find a good current ROM that will work with the 41.13 bootloader. I tried editing some files and repackaging the .zips (to look for 41.13 instead of 41.18) but that didn't seem to work. What are my options for ROMs if I'm stuck with an older bootloader? The reason I unlocked it was to install an alternative ROM.

Hello, I was using TWRP 2.8.3 and I upgraded to 287 using Flashify. But now my screen is fllickering (only when on TWRP287 or CM12+) . You say that I need to upgrade the rom and kernel, but what is that and how ?

(noob question I know...)

I wanted to upgrade my cm11 to last cm12.1 for peregrine (xt1039), but the install fails , so I came back to cm11 which work perfectly.
[Moto G General] satanas17:
Hi,

You have to check your bootloader version, surely under 41 18 and upgrade it. It's the reason for flickering with TWRP latest version and CM12+ roms. (surely the reason why you can't update with latest roms too...)

What's your bootloader vers ?
[Moto G General] koshikas:
technically a non-issue. the scanning lines you see now are due to minor incompatibility (entirely cosmetic) between the old bootlader (most probably 41.13) and the LP kernel. this is very temporary, as soon as you lock the device and wake it again the scan lines are no more.

if you back-track this thread [MENTION=5472827]Xyzko[/MENTION] recently gave steps on how to flash latest CM12.1 ROMs while keeping the old bootloader. or else you can use this tool to upgrade the bootloader to the latest one available, in which case you wont see the scanning lines on TWRP 2870 or CM12.1 permanently (but would get them again, if you downgrade to CM11)
[Moto G General] tomume:
I'm using AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)

41.16 (*)

Do you know where is the post ?

Wait, I just read in this same topic that once you ugraded it you cannot go back (downgrade). Is CM12.1 really worth it compared to CM11 ?

It's been a long time since I have not updated anything.

Completely nothing to do with this, but does anyone knows how to prohibit google from installing the apps you had installed before format to install automatically ?
[Moto G General] koshikas:
not sure 41.16 is KK or LP, 41.18 and up is definitely LP.

http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/orig-de...12-nightly-t2994749/post59837466#post59837466

yup, downgrading bootloader is discouraged, there are people who have done it successfully, there's a heavy bias for the amount of luck you've got. if the bootloader flashing fails, you brick the phone. like you (for the same reasons), i've waited like eternity to move onto LP. but then I did, can't say i regret it anymore. KK or CM11 is like the best ROM for MotoG. but then its not all about ROM, with ever increasing memory footprint of current apps i found CM11 failing me. was it the ROM or the kernel i dont know. i also had stability problems with XT1033 on CM11. but with active development of latest CM12.1 based ROMs and kernels i've got the feeling that, the phone fares better with new apps (well marginally). my advice, dont upgrade the bootloader, but do try LP. Exodus and SlimSaber are my personal recommendations for ROMs.

to stop apps from being restored, goto; Settings -> Backup & Reset and removing the checkmark for Restore
[Moto G General] tomume:
I cant find the Exodus for Peregrine...
[Moto G General] koshikas:
oops thought you had a falcon. there is also crDroid that i've used from CM11 days. you can give that a try

http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/4g-development/rom-crdroid-t3017858
[Moto G General] tomume:
I'm running Slimrom now, works well.

But i Could not install the other crdroid. Intall wont work...
[Moto G General] satanas17:
Do you made the upgrade of your bootloader?
[Moto G General] tomume:
Nop I did not as I lend the usb cable to my sister, she'll bring it tonight... So I just tried a KK version of what you gave me ;)
[Moto G General] satanas17:
OK ;) Do your upgrades, you'll not regret it...

If you want to, you can also try BlissPop Rom. It's not a light one, many configuration options but works like a charm on my XT1039 with the port of Optimus kernel. As i'm a Dt2w fan, i'm using prime version but there is a version without Dt2w too...

Keep us informed ;)
[Moto G General] tomume:
Ok I will :)

For now I'm just running SlimKat for Peregrine and I like it. Anyway I'm not a poweruser, I just unlocked my rooted my phone for fun :p And honestly I don't want to full my phone with games (i don't game on my phone) neither I want to full it with crappy apps ;)
[Moto G General] satanas17:
Same for me ;) Plus, XT1039 is now 2 years old and surely not a high-end one, even when it came out... But it's still working well, or well enough for me and many people, i think. And, most important, with a nice and (re) active community. But this is of topic... ;)

Flash well and let us know ;)
[Moto G General] tomume:
Thanks, I'll try this tonight. Could you post the links to the download page ? or to the website dev ? Because, I can't manage to find anything...:p

Here?: http://downloads.blissroms.com/BlissPop/Official/peregrine/

GApps ARM ? http://opengapps.org/

Besides that, how do you update the Kernel ?!?
[Moto G General] satanas17:
For latest Twrp. You can use encryption version as well. It can do recoveries without encryption if you're not selecting encryption option.

Use twrp to flash kernel as well your Rom...

OpenGapps is a good choice, easy to choose version/size ;)

Don't forget to read at least the first post carefully and, of course, don't forget to upgrade your bootloader first.
[Moto G General] tomume:
Hi, so if I recap,

0. Upgrade TWRP (I already upgraded it to latest version)

1. I have to upgrade the bootloader.

2. I have to install I new kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3104808

3. Install CM12.1 or Blissrom or Lolipop

4. Install gapps

PS: what's the difference between r45 mine and r45 ? https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=31573
[Moto G General] satanas17:
0. Ok if it's 2.8.7.0

1. Yes, upgrading bootloader.

2. Flash rom and Gapps (don't forget, with twrp, you can flash more than 1 thing in row) . Let rom boot once, for see if everything is ok

3. Activate usb debugging in developers options (i think it's already done in BlissPop but check it)

4. Back to recovery and flash kernel. Flashing alternative kernel without one already installed is a bit useless, no? ;)

This kernel is a port from a Falcon (XT1032) project , if i remember well. "mine" version is just the same than the "non mine" with some settings made by author of the topic. You can try any version you want. Anyway, Kernel adiutor is built in BlissPop, so you can make every changes to your installed kernel you want.

Just remember making a backup before digging too deep and forgetting what you've done ;)

I tried the 1.22 to upgrade my XT1033 bootloader from 41.1A to 41.18 but every time failed. It shows in windows screen that you have successfully upgraded but in fastboot mode it shows the same 41.1A.
[Moto G General] koshikas:
41.1A to 41.18 would actually be a downgrade which should not be risked (hard-brick). if you are already on 41.1A, which means you are running the latest bootloader.

I think this doesn't work on XT1028 (Verizon)? It receive update to 5.1.1 this month, bootloader now is 41.1A (sha-80481ae, 2015-04-10 14:30:28), but still it locked and "didn't qualify for bootloader unlock" still (motolola website says). Does anybody knew some software for temproot? Previously on 4.4.4 for me working good Kingroot, but now on 5.1.1 it fails. I've try to use about 15 different root methods - all fails (temproot also...)
[Moto G General] Nnyan:
I got two of the Moto G (XT1031) for my girls to play around on (non-cellular) and one had the 41.18 which updated fine (it was not detected but I was able to manually go into fastboot and it upgraded it to 41.19 (I did have to hit double enter to get it going). Now the second phone had 41.13 and again had to do the double enter but this time it automatically updated to the latest version not giving me the choice of going to 41.19. Problem is that Cyanogenmod is just stuck on boot (and I know first boot takes awhile but on the first phone it was less then 15 mins on this one I had it going to over 30mins). Is there a manual way to back this off to 41.19 to see if this fixes my issue?

Thank you!

For some reason I can flash any ROM once but after that I get an error whenever I attempt to flash another one (no matter what I wipe). I DID succeed once (with a 2nd flash) but I had to wipe out the internal storage so I"m going to try that again to see if that's the ticket.

If it works well and you don't plan to flash any newest rom (like latest LP's or even M), surely not necessary... ;)
[Moto G General] Tjsdj:
OK ,just want to know why sometimes device restarts while flashing ROM or wiping data
[Moto G General] satanas17:
If it happens when you're flashing, it could be a cause...

Not a big deal to upgrade it...you can try it, but be sure to be under latest recovery and alson being under LP rom for not facing the flickering at first boot problem...

Also keep in mind that is a one way road. No downgrade allowed without total brick issue...
[Moto G General] Carlos Arriaga:
aid, know whether the xt1032 roms working in the xt1008?
[Moto G General] koshikas:
NO

if there is something wrong with the present bootloader, then you device is surely bricked. since it is not, i'm pretty sure its the recovery you are using soft reboots it. flash fresh TWRP 2.8.7.0, and this should not be a problem
[Moto G General] odradekish:
I think most ROMs are compatible with 41.18, so it shouldn't be a problem. Knowing the risk of getting your phone bricked, I think it would be better to leave it like that.
[Moto G General] xtrs84zk:
I think, english one should work now. :)

Yes, I believe this has come up before, and ultimately means Bootloader is corrupt / mainboard issue. You are probably best looking for a new phone. I'm not aware of any solution other than replacing motherboard.
