[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
I've been using JMZ kernel for 8 months straight, combined with a stock asia rom that has all htc and google bloat removed and then deodexed. I have not had any problems at all, but for the last six months I am using a JMZ kernel that I compiled myself from his sources. I don't think that has made any difference but there are 3 versions of his source on his github so the 1 I compiled may be a little different. I also set up a phone fore a freind who wanted to keep running stock kernel but with a modified stock asia rom. We just extracted the JMZ kernel zip then boot to twrp(to keep his stock recovery in place we did this buy putting the phone in fastboot mode, then with TWRP****.img file in your fastboot directory run

fastboot boot TWRP****.img

which reboots the phone to TWRP without flashing it). Then from TWRP do a full backup for safety and to be able to return to full stock easily. While still in TWRP connect to the phone via ADB and run

adb push \path_to_extracted_jmz_kernel\system\lib\modules /system/lib

(this just adds modules from jmz kernel to you system so it can load propery)

I don't think this step is nesesary but next from in TWRP we did Advanced Fix Permisions to ensure the modules we just added have the corect permisions set.

Now you can boot to JMZ kernel (without flashing it and keeping stock kernel and recovery on your phone)when you want to make changes to your system that will stick after reboot (like sdcard fix,wifi tethering fix,supersu,xposed) by putting your phone in fastboot mode then with the boot.img extracted from JMZ kernel in your fastboot directory run

fastboot boot boot.img

this will reboot running JMZ kernel and when you make changes to the system then reboot the changes will stick but you reboot back to stock kernel.

Hope this helps someone

[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
Wow! That's really clever. So essentially you're just borrowing the kernel as a tool to make the system s-off, make changes, then go back to stock. I've gotta do this when I have a chance. Hopefully you'll be around if I have questions. Thanks.

EDIT-Thing is though. with the exception of tethering I can get everything else working without using the kernel. KK sdcard fix doesn't stick but I found one to flash in recovery and it's working for me. Same thing with busy box and flashing in recovery is the only way I know of to get SU working.

Is there anything else useful I might be missing?

Turns out the bugs (missed phone calls) were related to the kernel. I thought it might be the audio jack but after lots of testing i narrowed it down.
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
su can be installed by the above method but apart from that, only really to install exposed framework and modules.

The tethering fix can also be done from twrp, you just boot to twrp, press MOUNT and check box System, connect to it via adb ,"adb pull" the file you need to edit,edit it with notepad++,"adb push" the file back to the phone,run Advanced Fix Permisions in twrp, then Reboot and edited file will stick.

The method I descibed in last post is best suited to people in other regions who can't get RUU as it leaves original kernel and recovery in place so all you need to do is restore the original twrp backup of system partition and lock bootloader and your all good to get ota updates. And no red text at boot.

MiniBlu
[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
Xposed now has the option to flash in recovery (after v2.5 something, I think) Never had problems with that.

However, I didn't even think about mounting system in recovery then editing the text. That's smart. I don't use tethering but wanna try this.

So since I can run the ruu which means no red text, I can write to ext sd, and whenever I want to make changes I can use mount in twrp--is there any reason to buy s-off?

Edit-- would I be able to edit the text and reboot to recovery THEN mount system and fix permissions?

I'm just wondering because I'm not sure exactly when changes made to the system get changed back...

Does it happen when we boot into the ROM, meaning if I boot recovery the changes haven't been reversed?

Or do they go away as soon as I boot to recovery, meaning there's nothing new to save?

***I know its not critical. Using my Mac to make the changes is easy enough but for future modifications it does save time.

Thanks for the info
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
The changes made to /system aren't wriiten to disk at all so they will be gone when you reboot to recovery. But you can edit the file and save it to /sdcard, then in twrp use Advanced File Manager to copy the file from /sdcard to /system.
[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
Didn't even think of that. Thanks again!

...But what I'd need to do is basically replace the file completely, right? Never done anything like that in recovery. Everywhere else it'll say something like "This file already exists, would you like to overwrite it?" Doubt TWRP will give that heads up...have you ever made modifications in this manner?
[HTC Desire 610] MiniBlu:
Yes. Its the same as when you do it with adb. It just overwrites the file. You can always rename the original with a .orig extension first so you have original file backed up.
[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
I tried it and it worked! This is really cool. Makes me wonder what else could modified. Thanks again!

[General Questions and Answers] V8_Kind_Of_Guy:
What's the deal? I downloaded the rollback file on my computer. Put it on my kindle with USB. Performed update. Kindle updated to 3.2.8 just fine. Clicked finish install later. Turned off WiFi. My screen goes to sleep. Woke up kindle with the power button and swiped to unlock to see if it was still working. Kindle went back to sleep and now nothing responds, screen stays totally black. This is a brand new 2 day old kindle. I did this on my last kindle a week ago and the same thing happened. Is this some fake rollback? Its a 3rd gen 8.9 hdx with 4.5.3.

I find it hard to believe something is wrong on the kindle end being this is the second time happening.

Yes, I downloaded the correct file from another xda forum., before anyone asks.

Hi all..

Many sites nowadays have embedded windows media player in some of their webpages, and unfortunately I haven't been able of watching those videos on my trinity using Pocket Internet Explorer.

I was wondering if there was a way to be able to watch those embedded windows. maybe another browser supports it??

thanks in advance.

[Sprint LG G3] mjjcb:
I've used this app for a long time without a problem. Tonight I installed it as a system app from within the app and rebooted. Now when I open the app, I get the message I've attached in the screen shot. The heck!

I did XDA and Google searches for "Better Battery Stats Companion" but I can't find anyone even talking about this. It says it's a companion app, so where did the real app go? I know it's something stupid and simple, but I'm stumped.

Anyone know? TIA
[Sprint LG G3] Jimmy50941:
I think I had that the first time I installed it. I might have had to install BBS again when it did that, but it's installed as a system app for me now. Did it have a recovery zip message show up when you installed it as system.
[Sprint LG G3] mjjcb:
No zip file created. I might uninstall and reinstall if no one comes up with something else soon. Strange thing and even stranger that I can't find it mentioned on the developer's site or anywhere on the net.
[Sprint LG G3] Jimmy50941:
I found the apk for it in system/priv-app directory. Does it show up in there for you?
[Sprint LG G3] mjjcb:
I didn't see the apk in my system/app folder, but this went well in a weird way. I clicked the uninstall button that my screenshot shows. It said it failed to uninstall, but when I re-opened the app, it worked the way it should. It's working perfectly now.

I'm not gonna argue with my phone. It works, and I'm good with that. Thanks for responding when I reached out for help!

Hi ,

Can i restore stock US retail 4.4.4 and update this OTA.

thanks
[Moto G General] AgentChaos:
Yes thats how it usually works!
[Moto G General] eugineprakash:
Are there any issues with upgrade?

Are there any issues with upgrade?bcos iam currently in cm12.1 my bootloader version 41.19

I am planing to restore 4.4.4 us retail without downgrade my bootloader after that i am going upgrade from OTA in above thread.

Are there any issues with upgrade?Please guide me if i wrong.

Thanks,
[Moto G General] Joandvg6:
I have been unable to install the update. Was with custom recovery and root and tried to install it and failed. Did factory reset, install stock recovery, download again the OTA from phone an try to install it and did not work.

Used the guide to go back to the stock firmware (though I already had it)

Try to install it using stock recovery, threw and error. (books.apk blabla).

Don't know what problems could yo be facing but man, this has been tough.

EDIT:

Just figured it out! The problem was exactly that I was already using the stock ROM and deleted some system APKs.

After trying going back to the really stock one once again (first I did not flash system images) it is installing correctly!

Btw this is my mirror for those who prefer using MEGA servers.

Where can I get the stock 4.4 so I can upgrade? I need stock recovery too.
[Moto G General] tifossi88:
I have problems to update too. XT1032, Retail US. As a first information, I have KK 4.4.4

I managed to download the update from my mobile (zipfile Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US, I already transferred to my PC thanks to Root Explorer), but when I go to "install now" and reboot, trying to install from zip file, pops a message from my recovery (PhilzTouch) Error Status 7. My phone is rooted by SU v2.46

So, what are the exactly step-by-step guide. I will appreciate that. Greetings from Chile

Change your recovery por el Stock Recovery for Kitkat 4.4.4

This is the 4.4.4 Retail US (Last Build released)

https://mega.co.nz/#!ZIxQGJSJ!dnHim2zF3vDIenrvw24NeTDAeneA8m5BEidoD6hz4_k

That's the one I flashed following the guide to flash stock firmware in this forum and then updated with the OTA I posted before (I suppose the one of the topic is the same)
[Moto G General] lifetimes:
Finally, it's out!
[Moto G General] tifossi88:
Followed your steps:

- Flashed my phone (XT1032) with Retail US 4.4.4 Stock (RETAIL_XT1032_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.61_cid9_CFC.xml) using CMD, fastboot, typing list of files, etc.

- Updated some Motorola apps. Noticed Super SU is already included and installed by default, no way to uninstall it.

- Downloaded to my computer the OTA file (Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US), then moved OTA file to SD Card

- Turn off mobile

. Reboot in stock recovery, with the robot and the exclamation sign.

- Try to apply update from SD card with the file previously loaded on it (Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US)

- At verifying update package, update stops popping a message. The message in yellow is:

What should I do in that case? Feel free to answer me in spanish for PM.
[Moto G General] iDynamics:
Is this any different from the February Canada release?
[Moto G General] Joandvg6:
In the SU menu you can find a way to delete the root, but I don't think that is causing the error.

Can you please tell me the version of recovery your phone have? You may have installed a kit kat 4.4.2 recovery or one with a different build number and that's causing the error.

IKXB21.14-L1.61

In the recovery menu, you should see the .61. I got the same problem as you and was using .32.

Did full factory reset, and installed stock again (w/o updating anything at all), when I checked the recovery, it was .61 and it updated perfectly.

In case you are really sure you got the actual last kitkat update firmware, you can try to extract the recovery.img and flash it using moto tool,

(rename it to StockKitkatrecovery.img and replace the one it brings with this one)
[Moto G General] tifossi88:
I solved my problem by myself, thanks anyway. The issue for me, was updating some apps once in 4.4.4. You should not to do it.

Explanation for dummies, as me, in order to get Lollipop 5.0.2:

1) Flash your phone (XT1032) with Retail US 4.4.4 Stock (RETAIL_XT1032_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.61_cid9_CFC.xml), as it follows:

A) Extract the Retail US 444. Stock zip file (475 MB)

B) Download this file too: (1,5 MB) https://www.dropbox.com/s/nlbrn71wfqyup4u/mfastboot-v2.zip?dl=0 , and unzip it inside the same folder as you extracted Retail US Stock zip file. All files together in the same path.

C) Put your phone on fastboot (turn off, and then press Vol-and Power 3 secs, and release both buttons). Connect your phone to USB port.

D) Inside the folder containing all all these files, press **** + right click and choose "open file command", and a CMD window will open.

E) Once in CMD window, execute one by one:

mfastboot flash boot boot.img

mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2

mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

mfastboot erase modemst1

mfastboot erase modemst2

mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

mfastboot erase cache

mfastboot erase userdata

mfastboot reboot

F) After reboot, unplug phone from USB port.

G) Done, you have now Stock Retail US 4.4.4 installed on your phone, Turn it on and set all things in order to go to home screen.
​

2)Once in the main screen , don't update your apps, no matter if they are even from Google or Motorola, don't do it

3) Download to your PC the OTA file (372 MB) Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US

4) Connect again your phone to USB port , and move OTA file to your phone SD Card

5) Once done previous step, go to Stock Recovery Mode. It is:

A)Turn Off your phone

B) Press Power and Vol- for 3 secs, then release

C) Select with vol- recovery option, and confirm it with vol+ button

D) Android Robot with exclamation sign will show up on the screen

E) Press vol+ and vol- for 5 secs, then press power once and release all the 3 buttons at the same time

F) Recovery Stock will appear you now.​

6) Apply update from SD card with the file previously loaded on it (Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US). Select OTA file on "apply update from zip file".

7) Process will take up to 10-15 minutes aproximately. Voilá, you will have Lollipop 5.0.2 on your RetailUS mobile.

Hope it will be useful for dummies, like me. Thanks.

[Moto G General] classic757:
You cannot downgrade the 41.19 bootloader to the 41.13. If you try to do that you WILL hardbrick your phone. However you can downgrade from Lollipop to Kitkat 4.4.4 (I know because I am on the 41.19 bootloader and was on cm 12.1 but restored to 4.4.4 successfully).

You have to flash the firmware for your phone except for the gpt.bin and motoboot.img. Flash all the other files in the firmware for your phone without those two and you should be fine.

[Moto G General] OmarElAdawy007:
Would i be able to Download OTA updates from motorola after doing this ?
[Moto G General] mightysween:
It depends on whether the CDMA fixes were merged into this build... it was broken by default on the original 5.0.2 AOSP builds, but was working in the Boost soak test as well as specific CM12 builds.

It is quite possible these changes were pushed back into this official 5.0.2 Motorola release....but I cant find anything that confirms it. I think the only way to find out is to test it.
[Moto G General] classic757:
And if the test fails does it brick the phone or no? The Verizon radio has to be flashed also, correct? I am on the 41.19 bootloader but I reverted back to stock Kitkat (flashed the 4.4.4 firmware without the gpt.bin and motoboot.img and it went well )

[Moto G General] mightysween:
It may soft brick or disable radio if there were a modem conflict, but even this unlikely and a flash of 4.4.4 stock would fix... no different than all those months we spent flashing every foreign 5.0.2 firmware that came out. :)

If the cdma fixes were merged, CDMA would work on an XT1032 ROM with no need to flash a radio file.
