It is common knowledge that you can downgrade after flashing system.img, boot.img and non-HLOS.bin, but what about fsg.mbn ?
It appears that fsg.mbn is part of the modem, and I would like to flash it.
Has anyone successfully returned to stock after flashing fsg.mbn from an upgrade?

I have currently got a moto x from o2 (UK) with the o2 branded rom, and would like to change this to the UK retail rom version.
I have read through various posts and how to's, and it looks like I should be okay in doing this, as they are both 4.4.2, just looking for confirmation that this will work okay.
I have found a script that I think covers all the steps I need to complete the change
Code:
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash partition gpt.bin
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash motoboot motoboot.img
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash logo logo.bin
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash boot boot.img
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash recovery recovery.img
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash system system.img
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
./moto-fastboot-osx64 erase modemst1
./moto-fastboot-osx64 erase modemst2
./moto-fastboot-osx64 flash fsg fsg.mbn
./moto-fastboot-osx64 erase cache
./moto-fastboot-osx64 erase userdata
./moto-fastboot-osx64 erase customize
./moto-fastboot-osx64 erase clogo
./moto-fastboot-osx64 oem fb_mode_clear
Does this look about right, and is there anything I have missed or should know before I try, as I do not want to end up with an expensive brick
Thanks in advance

OK, first, questions belong in Q&A section -- please post to the correct forums. Please read the 2nd sticky thread at the top of the General Sub-forum.
Second, the last command "fastboot oem fb_mode_clear" should only be used if your very first command is "fastboot oem fb_mode_set"
Other than that, your information seems correct. I personally do NOT recommend flashing another carrier's ROM to your device, simply because others HAVE bricked doing this.
You'll probably be OK since you're just flashing the Retail ROM over a branded ROM of the same model, but STILL, if you do this, you are doing it ---completely at your own risk----.
Don't blame me or anyone else if you do brick. People have done this, and most successfully....but I won't personally recommend something that has even a slight risk of brick.
Good Luck
I also have a o2 moto x and I've switched to the retail GB firmware using RDS LITE. No problem working perfectly

Hi!
I have a Moto G dual sim and I recently updated my ROM to Lollipop XT1064 (biggest mistake in recent history!)
Things went really well for a day then I made two mistakes:
1- SU Binary required update so I told it I have TWRP recovery when I did not. that made my phone freeze and kept restarting before getting to the moto logo.
2- I then decided to flash back to 1068 to redo the whole thing, but I mistakenly used Moto x (it was a version that worked on Moto g single sim, I think.. not sure anymore)
Since then I have tried flashing 1068 4.4.4 stock ROM and every time i end up with no network signal (wifi NOR the both SIMs.)
I was able to flash modem files successfully and in my pursuit to fix wifi I had to flash other roms but now I cannot even fix the SIM signal.
Please note that I have no data that I care about, I want ANY ROM that make my phone more valuable than a paperweight.
To sum up:
- OEM is unlocked
- I get flash and get into custom recovery
- I am able to flash stock ROMs
- Was not able to get any ROM where WIFI works (not able to enable it. never worked since the problem started)
- Was able once to get the SIMs to work (were not ale to do it again although I repeated the same steps which were
Steps I used to flash stock ROMs:
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
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.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
Steps to attempt to enable SIMs:
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot reboot
I hope i provided enough info... if not, please let me know what to add.
Many thanks in advanced for helping or taking the time to read words of a desperate human being!
Let's say you've accidentally hosed your modem by deleting the modemst files. How would I go about fixing that? I figured I could just download the stock sprint radio for the moto x (gen 1), but I can't seem to find such a thing. I tried flashing this radio:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/radio-msm8960probp232-55-52-00r-t2824925
But that doesn't seem to be the right radio for sprint.
I tried doing a full wipe and re-flash of the newest cm12 ghost nightly, but if it contains the radio files, it didn't fix the problem of the phone not connecting to cell networks.
Basically i'm looking for the stock modem files so I can recover doing something like this:
Code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot reboot
flashing cm11 then cm12 somehow fixed this.
Hi, can anyone tell me how to update the modem to the latest version?
I'm on pure edition 1095 unlocked, twrp, custom 511 rom. I've searched all over and cannot find a clear guide on how to do it.
Thank you in advance!

Download the full firmware of the 5.1 Pure edition then extract the files
NON-HLOS.bin and FSH.mbn the go to fast boot and type:
mfastboot erase modemst1 mfastboot erase modemst2 mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn mfastboot reboot
Done. You have the last modem of the 5.1 pure edition.
Now you've confused me because I found different code and steps on moto website and xda
Code:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

Is the same just different order. The erase command don't erase the NON-HLOS.bin but the stats and configuration or the modem.
Flashing before of after the new modem over the old makes no difference unless you don't erase modemst1 and st2.
mfastboot is the "same" fast boot just a command special designed to Motorola devices.
I followed the instructions and got unknown baseband and blank imei. I restored the efs from backup and got the imei back, the baseband version is newer. I thought the efs restore would change it back to the original?

ok, maybe is because the 5.1.1 custom you are using is not compatible with the modem you are trying to flash. And it is "normal" if you lose signal and IMEI after, that happened to me when I flashed the 5.0 modem over a 4.4.4, the solution is simple, just flash back your original modem and your IMEI/baseband will be restored.
