You had 4.4.2 on your phone, I'm betting the "stock rom" you had then tried flashing was 4.4 or lower.
As danger2u said, the first thing you'll want to try is to flash the ROM for your phone. Since you had 4.4.2 on there, you'll need to find the 4.4.2 SBF for your carrier (I don't see american movil mx listed on -> http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0 ), and flash it.
If that doesn't work, you'll want to see this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/tut-resurrecting-bricked-moto-x-corrupt-t2629057 It too requires you have the correct ROM for your device
If you manage to get it working.. DO NOT DOWNGRADE YOUR ROM!!!!! (i.e. once on 4.4.2 do NOT flash 4.4 or below!!!!)

I got my phone with 4.2.2 out of the box, then i recivied the 4.4.2 via OTA, at&t us have the XT1058, would i install the rom on 4.4 fot at&t then flash the modem?

No. If you received 4.4.2 OTA... you need to flash 4.4.2. do NOT flash 4.4.
Due to changes in 4.4.2, you either will brick, or set yourself up to brick if you try to downgrade your rom version... i.e. 4.4.2 -> 4.4 will brick or set you up for it.
Were you running an ATT ROM on your phone? or something else?

I'm wrong, i wanted to write 4.4.2. I was running my stock rom, america movil 4.2.2, recivied the OTA for 4.4.2, in the page of firmwares i can´t find the firmware for america movil 4.4.2, probabbly it doesn´t exist, so, can i flash the rom for the at&t XT1058, then i got the modem for my carrier flashed?

I don't know the differences in the ATT Rom vs America Movil... I know the ATT rom has a lot of bloat.
I don't think the ATT 4.4.2 SBF was leaked yet (it wasn't when i looked earlier)...

If you downgraded and then took an ota, that usually leads to a brick. Read the thread kid Joe posted and hopefully you can recover.
Good luck!
Oh, and as said....the best moto x advice there is, is once on 4.4.2.....stay on 4.4.2. Unfortunately.
Sent from my N5, N7, Moto X, G Tab 3 or S2.....

First off, which SBF are you trying to flash? is it 4.4.2 or 4.4?
Past or attach the XML which is inside the SBF you are using. We'll help you convert it to the correct series of mFastboot commands.

Is that the exact 4.4.2 ROM that was on your phone originally? If not, there is a chance this still might not fix you...
Its extremely similar to what @danger2u has already posted.
(based on Moto's web site and the XML you posted) after unzipping the "CLARO-BR_GHOST..." SBF, you'd want to try the following commands from the folder where you unzipped the SFB after booting the phone to fastboot/bootloader mode....
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot erase customize
mfastboot erase clogo
mfastboot reboot
NOTE: by Mfastboot, I mean the Moto modified version of fastboot, not the one that comes with the standard Android SDK/Platform Tools. The moto modified Fastboot.exe can sometimes be found in a windows folder inside an SBF, or you can download from -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/X-STUFF/Mfastboot-4.4.zip

GUYS! THANK YOU A LOT! i did it, mi moto X is alive, thanks @KidJoe, @danger2u & @kj2112, you helped me without even knowing me.
I used the comands that @KidJoe gave me, but using just ''fastboot'' everything is working fine, even the 4G connection.
Thanks, really, really thanks... Now i feel i'm a real XDA member & i wish my post help people.

if it keeps force closing then you are not returning the phone to stock. because if you did that would not happen.
so i need you to explain to me what you are using when returning your phone to stock because it is not taking for some reason.

Well you have to flash the NON-HLOS.bin or it is not going to work.
Why not just download the full Sprint firmware file(I believe you've already done this) download rsdlite, remove the var line from the xml, and with one click your phone will work fine again.

Hi,
I just got my Moto X Dev Edition GSM TMO last week, but I got it very unstable, while I had try to wipe cache and factory reset few times.
Some problem that I have
Numeric Keypad is not shown while using google keyboard. The problem that my email is using 2FA from google to entry my 6-digit PIN
Chrome freeze while open quite complex pages
Gmail freezing while open communication more than 3 email on the messaging mode
Path also unstable while need to scroll down and request to reload more data.
Whatsapp stuck when there's few message has beeen received
Thinking to downgrade the os to 4.4, but when I read in some thread inform better not to downgrade that might cause device brick.
Is there any other solution so I can use my Moto X for daily, while waiting for T-Mobile latest 4.4.2 rom.
Please share
Thank you
If you have to downgrade to 4.4, but you're waiting for T-Mobile 4.4.2, what ROM are you running?
MotoX Developer Edition went from German 4.4.2 to Great Britain 4.4.2 to T-Mobile 4.4.2 no problem. Fastboot FTW!

Yes. But don't flash motoboot.img or gpt.img, it won't let you downgrade those. This doesn't means that you won't brick with other version.

Eksasol,
What did you mean with don't flash with those files? Is that means unzip the image files and take out those files and zip again?
Which images is the best one for downgrade, from the sbf Blur_Version.161.44.25.ghost_row.Retail.en.US.zip or TMO_RETAIL_XT1053_4.4-13.11.1Q2.X-69-3_MR2_1FF.xml.zip

Please advice thanks
Let me make it easier. Just flash the system and kernel files leave everything else alone. However the ability to go back depends on how you got to 4.4.2 to begin with, OP said he took the OTA, not sure about you.
My advice assuming you're stock is to call Motorola, tell them you took the ota and these are the issues you're having. Get them to send you a new phone. I'd rather see you do that than brick your phone trying to do it yourself.
MotoX Developer Edition went from German 4.4.2 to Great Britain 4.4.2 to T-Mobile 4.4.2 no problem. Fastboot FTW!

Yes. But don't flash motoboot.img or gpt.img, it won't let you downgrade those. This doesn't means that you won't brick with other version.

Are you sure this is correct? I was told in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50330230#post50330230 (see post #12):
let me make this blunt before you even get your phone
your phone is a DE so you can root any version
is you come with 4.2.2 camera update or 4.4 you can upgrade and downgrade between thouse two versions only
if your phone comes with 4.4.2 you can not downgrade at all so just root it and enjoy because most people are trying to get there and bricking there phones half the time.

So the way I understand it one cannot downgrade from 4.4.2 to any other version because bootloader in 4.4.2 was changed and is not compatible with any previous release.

Eksasol,
What did you mean with don't flash with those files? Is that means unzip the image files and take out those files and zip again?
Which images is the best one for downgrade, from the sbf Blur_Version.161.44.25.ghost_row.Retail.en.US.zip or TMO_RETAIL_XT1053_4.4-13.11.1Q2.X-69-3_MR2_1FF.xml.zip

If you haven't already unlock the bootloader, then you should just send the phone back. Once you unlock the bootloader the warranty is voided and you'll be stuck with that phone. If you still intend on flashing:
You flash them using mfastboot while in flash mode, do not flash motoboot or gpt, also don't run "fastboot getvar". Manually perform these commands:
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase customize
mfastboot erase clogo
After flashing T-Mo 4.4, you can receive OTA update to get back to 4.4.2.

I went the safe route and used one for xt1058, if that's your model.
I checked on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moto_X#Variants
The Rogers 4.4.2 worked for me. I was BL unlocked ATT xt1058
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0
Blur_Version.161.44.26.ghost_row.RCI.en.CA
I followed the mfastboot directions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50921248&postcount=121
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin

mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

After going to this, you can install recovery then try out other flash-able 4.4 or 4.4.2 if you wish. 4.2 might not work, I haven't tried. I also haven't tried downgrading the motoboot or modem. I'm assuming once you're here you would probably want to stick with 4.4.2 motoboot or modems since other people have softbricked their phones.
Take this with a grain of salt but if I were to try something like this I'd surely not update the boot loader, then would only fast boot flash the update.

Thanks for the advice! I'm not sure I know what the ramifications are, but I'll accept responsibility for them. Been running 4.4.2 on 4.4 bootloader since I posted this in March and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. I know better than to take an OTA and being that I'm running a custom recovery I feel pretty confident I won't accidentally take one.
OTOH, I would not under any circumstances try to install another carriers FW on my phone. I'm content with what I have. BUT, if I were to attempt to do so I'd not install their Bootloader or partition table as I'd be afraid it would make the attempt irreversible.
So I just bought my Moto G 2014 (unlocked) and I have it all activated and set up. I was wondering though when Lollipop will be pushed so I can update to it? All I see articles are saying "It will get it" and "you should be able to update to it now" but I can't and I really don't want to void my warranty a day after I bought the phone. I want to try vanilla* Lollipop. Does anybody know when exactly?
( * = without having to manually install it via unlocking bootloader and using fastboot)
Motorola knows.
If it is the XT1063/4 ones, you can already install it via OTA.

I have an Xt1064 and I still havent received the update. Is the update available here the same as the OTA? Im tempted to just install that one.

Download the proper ota zip for your version from xda. Reboot into your stock bootloader. Apply update from sdcard. Done. No need to root or use fastboot. This can only be done on a completely stock phone with a locked bootloader. Its the same as end result that you'd get if you wait for the ota to arrive normally. Do not do this if you have unlocked your bootloader at any time. And make sure you use the proper ota zip for your model, there are three different models, the single sim us model ends in 1064.

You can't. Lollipop isn't released for the XT1068 yet. But be patient. I suspect it to be there in the first or the second quarter of 2015! (And with a little luck maybe even this year...).

Follow the guide at ( http://www.droidviews.com/restore-moto-g-2014-to-stock-and-lock-the-bootloader/ ). However there's a couple of things you have to do differently.
Your first command after you enter fastboot mode is gonna have to be "mfastboot.exe oem lock begin".
Theres also gonna be four system.img that you have to flash so after the command "mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2" you have to enter the command "mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3". Follow the rest of the guide, including the "mfastboot.exe oem lock" command at the end.
So basically the commands would be...
mfastboot.exe oem lock begin
mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot.exe erase cache
mfastboot.exe erase userdata
mfastboot.exe oem lock
My phone automatically rebooted after that last command and my boot loader was locked even though it still displays the "Bootloader Unlocked" screen, I was able to flash the zip in the OP through the stock recovery after that.

The xt1068 ota isnt available yet. There is a process to install another versions firmware on the xt1068 then upgrade to lollipop. But it looks buggy and super risky. I wouldn't recommend trying it. Id wait a little for the 1068 ota to be released. I know the other poster said it wont be available until 2015. But nobody knows for sure when itll be out. If i where to guess, id say itll be out fairly soon, sometime in the next 30 days. If I where you Id play it safe and wait it out.

Hi,
I have a Brazilan version XT1097, bootloader unlocked but no root yet.
I cannot install anything from play store because I get an error that does not say much.
All I did was trying to root using a guide I found that tells you to use CF-Autoroot, but it just did not work.
Then I installed TWRP to see if there was any ROMs available since I came from the Nexus 5 and was used to see tons of ROMs on xda to grab and flash.
To my surprise, none is available so far.
Now I am trying to find the original 1097 images to flash on my device and go back to stock.
Might even give up on root, if necessary, but I need the phone back
Any ideas on how to proceed?
A different problem now
The user seco2004 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4946010) has provided me with his backup image.
I followed the steps on the motorola website to flash all the files but my phone is stuck at the bootloader warning message, that one that says that the bootloader is unlocked.
When I entered TWRP to wipe all over again, it says there is no system installed...
Any pointers are most welcome!

I'm not sure if this is what you tried before, but there's pretty much no chance of anything going wrong if you follow the commands:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img (maybe you missed this part? instead of the "system.img", you need to flash the system files one at a time, something like: mfastboot flash system systemfile_1.img, the mfastboot flash system systemfile_2.img, and then proceed with the commands below)
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem config carrier vzw
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
After all this the phone should boot normally into stock 4.4.4. Sorry for the delay, Tapatalk didn't notify me , hope you got it fixed already.
