Moto X TMO Dev Edition Freezing

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!

Currently I'm using T-Mobile 4.4.2 OTA
Is it possible to restore to factory image with T-Mobile 4. 4?

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
And also what you mean with "This doesn't means that you won't brick with other version"? Is that mean that not guarantee that downgrade won't have brick on the devices?
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.

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.

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.

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!!!!)

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 erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache

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.

Before this i updated 5.0 via ota to soak test 5.1. but i used twrp to wipe partitions in phone. i did this because was not able to downgrade to 5.0. can you help. now i want to install anything in my phone 5.0 or 5.1. i just want to put this to woak again anyway because i need to use my cellphone.

You still have twrp right. So a easy way is to download a toolkit from the moto x 2014 thread onto your PC and install it. Then boot your phone into bootloader/fastboot and make sure you also install the moto drivers which the toolkit will ask you to do. Then just follow directions using the toolkit and you will be back up n running. Or you can sideload a rom onto twrp using the 1.0.3.2 version of adb drivers. I have done it successfully many times using Linux but with Linux you just have to type a ./ in front of adb sideload rom.zip for it to work. Just don't worry. As long as you have a bootloader then your phone is never bricked. Toolkit is below...

Now RSD Lite recognizes my phone, but when i start to flash android 5.0 it says: version downgraded for primary_gpt
I flash this same rom (5.0) before using RSD Lite and it worked perfectly, but now gives this error. How can i fix it?

Have you got your factory image for your phone and mfastboot?

I heard many people reporting this error, say they have posts here on xda that solves the problem but I could not find them . I have seen in a blog that the problem is in doing downgrading from 5.0 to 5.1. and they say that to solve it is necessary to change two lines of a file , but I do not know which file is this , and not how it's done

Can you get into bootloader mode (fastboot)? What version of the bootloader are you running (you can see this in bootloader mode)?

these are the information appearing:
So I try to install the rom 5.0 with RSD Lite this error occurs :
And that's what the RSD Lite says :
I was using the soak test 5.1 V : 23:11:14 , and went back to retail by 5.0 RSD Lite 6.2.4 , and is giving the following error "version is downgraded primary- gpt "

Your bootloader is 60.16, which is the 5.1 bootloader. You are getting that error because you are trying to flash a lower version partition table from your bootloader.
You need to stop trying to flash the 5.0 partition table. I would manually flash the 5.0 system, boot, NON-HLOS, fsg and logo using mfastboot version 2.
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash system system.img
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.bin
Then after you are done that, boot into recovery and wipe cache and data partition. Then reboot into system.

Thank you

Ok but all that says to do is to flash the 5.0 firmware with RSDLite. I thought that was what you were trying to do and were getting an error?

Ah, got it.

So I am having this exact problem now and I think somewhere along the way I flashed files from the wrong version and now my phones seems to not recognize the system storage or doesn't know how to write to it. My bootloader is 60.18....I've tried the system files for 5.1 and 6.0 but nothing seems to work. After I enter all of the commands it just reboots over and over and says erasing...
really strange

Is your bootloader unlocked? Last I read you could get the Verizon Moto X 2014 bootloader unlocked.
You can get into bootloader mode and use fastboot commands, correct?

Hi there 3rdstring, I don't suppose you could translate it to English for us, could you? Or I guess I can see if Google Chrome will do that.

My XT1072 stuck on fastboot flash screen - Help needed

Hi,
I have an XT1072 which was rooted and running CM. Since I wanted to install stock ROM, I used the Windows Tool from this forum to restore stock Android. By doing so, I was stuck with Bootloader locked screen.
Since then I am stuck on Fastboot Flash Mode screen (see pic attached).
When I try to connect my device to the same PC or any other PC and try mfastboot or fastboot or any command, it just says Waiting for device. I have all the required drivers installed in all the PCs I tested.
Using the volume buttoms, I am able to select any option, but it wont open any option (such as Normal Powerup or Recovery)
Can someone help?
Thanks

anyone?

Hi, I am unable to do anything as the phone is not even identified by the PC, and although I am able to select any option using the volume buttons, it doesn't do anything.
Any other suggestions on how to re-flash as you said?

Hi, like I said above, I have tried fastboot and mfastboot commands but when I try that it says "waiting for device" and it does nothing.
I have ADB and fastboot drivers on my pc, and they used to work just before I encountered the above mentioned error.
Not sure how to proceed here.
Thanks if you could provide a workable solution.

Hi Guys,
I know this is a long shot as this is an old thread but did you get anywhere with a resolution to this?
I'm in the exact same position.
Tried flashing with different factory roms and "fastboot boot" to try force it to boot a twrp image

I'm also stuck here, anyone has had any luck?

Guys i think you just need to flash over the entire fw.
Just get fastboot+mfastbootv2, motoroladevicemanager (for phone drivers) and then flash over the original stock fw, you can get the right one for you phone/region here -> http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=50

This will flash the fw, factory reset and reboot the phone.

Sorry guys tought that could help, i fixed mine like that, flashing latest reteu fw on my reteeu phone, mine was unlocked tought ^^ when this happened to me, but doing some more investigation reveal more and more posts whit the same problem and unlocked bootloader.
if you had it unlocked previusly may be worth checking, if the "get unlock code" work or not and check the old mails for the unlock code sent by motorola (luckly i have a backup of mine xD).

Bootloader should check if boot and system images are correct otherwise it should send user back to bootloader.

Out of tricks stock flash + factory reset always worked for me sorry.
I noted my phone model/region before doing anything (xt1072-thea-reteu) got the right fw and it worked fine, maybe was another problem giving the same error "failed to validate system image" unable to boot and stuck in bootloader, weird.... :\

Well thanks for trying.
I've been giving it another shot again and I still can't get past these errors.
Anyone any more ideas or shall we admit defeat?

My phone is in a drawer I'd love to be able to fix it because I really miss Android now but it there doesn't seem to be a solution... I am no giving up hope entirely though!

I tink that I have similar problem with my X1072.
After unroot with Kingroot and install AdAway and TWRP from Google Play I even noticed that I hadn't unlock bootolader.
Now I can't reboot my phone without entering in Bootloader and reseting to factory defaults. After some reboots no data has been deleted.
I have tried to reflash the entire phone but In bootloader mode the phone is not detected by the computer, so I can't flash. I'm stucked. by now

Also remember if you are on another model and not XT1072 you should dl the correct image for your phone from HERE Look if Android 6 is available for your country, if you have gb-de-fr-es you can use the EU stock image.

Soft bricked XT1052

Soft bricked when trying to flash stock 5.1 back from CM13. Somehow managed to wipe the entire phone and now all I have access to are fastboot and TWRP recovery. I have no ROM ZIPs to access in TWRP since internal storage was wiped. I tried ADB sideload but says it can't mount /data/. My computer recognises the phone as a fastboot device but not as an ADB device.
Is there any coming back from this?

I've downloaded the retail GB stock image file for XT1052 but I can't flash the partition as I just get error 'update gpt_main version failed' 'preflash validation failed for GPT'

Flash stock via mfastboot.

I've downloaded the RetGB for 5.1 for XT1052 from here: https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto X (1st gen-2013)/Stock/XT1052/
But it seems to be missing a number of key files that are described in option 5 of the link you posted. Am I missing something? I'm also still getting errors each time I try to flash the partition except now CMD is just showing:
"target max-download-size: 768MB error: cannot load 'gpt.bin': no error. Any ideas? Thanks.
My only other thought at this point is to try and flash a ROM in recovery using USB-OTG. Could that work? For example, if I download stock ROM or even the CM 14 I had on previously before everything got wiped and put that on an external drive and flashed in TWRP?

I just moved cmd.exe into my platform tools folder where everything else is and tried again to flash the partition. Instead this time I get:
C:\Android-SDK\platform-tools>mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
(bootloader) Variable not supported!
target max-download-size: 768MB
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.335s]
writing 'partition'...
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 1.328s
And then on the phone itself in the fastboot screen it shows:
"downgraded security version. update gpt_main version failed. preflash verification failed for GPT'. I thought this would mean the bootloader I'm trying to flash would represent a downgrade but I checked against the info.txt file in the recovery image zip and it says 30.BE which matches the 30.BE in my fastboot screen...

OK I've now got an OS. Managed to reinstall CM14 using usb-otg. Figured that was the safest bet given it was the last OS installed.
Problem I now have is that I can't get any service (I could previously on CM14 before all this happened). Is it possible that when I managed to completely wipe the phone that I would the relevant modem/radio files?
Thanks

Try downloading stock file from
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images
fastboot method is mentioned in the above link.
Replace fastboot by mfastboot with all its necessary components in place.

That doesn't have my version - xt1052.
Would this be to return my mobile service? I've got back on CM14 but all my IMEI and sim data has wiped so I can't get service. Not sure if I need to use the 5.1 factory image I have and just flash modem files. Seen elsewhere that I could try
Fastboot flash modem NON-hlos.bin
Fastboot erase modemst1
Fastboot erase modemst2
Fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Would that do the trick do you reckon?

Take a nandroid backup & try doing it!
There is also a 5.1 stock zip Rom & try that too, might be helpful.

Hi,
You'll eventually find your way back to 5.1 or even 4.4.4. I've broken just about every rule while I was doing some dev work on a moto x 2013 and from a beta of cm14, managed to pretty quickly get all the way back to 4.4.4 (which for me, is by far the best for a) battery and b) motion detection and c) everything works).
There was nothing after 5.1 for 2013, so there's no way you couldn't at least go back to 5.1, but there's always one way that works for you better than the rest. If that last thing didn't work, then try "liveroy's" way as in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/guide-faq-how-to-downgrade-5-1-to-4-4-4-t3182118 .. That way was actually based on an xt1052. I doubt if the radio files are going to make much difference heading in that direction, but are worth a shot before doing this.
I followed the first post in there and was un-"bricked" in ~20 minutes or so. Cheers // good luck,

Thanks. Will give that a look as I would like to know how to easily go back to stock in the event of catastrophe - I've been trying to flash back using both fastboot and TWRP but it fails every time due to 'downgrade security' etc. even though I know I'm using the same bootloader as in the stock ROM.
I managed to get my IMEI and service back by flashing
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
I've now got Resurrection Remix on as I thought I'd see if that would fix my service issues (it didn't - so still had to do the steps above). But have managed to learn a lot over the past few days to bring my phone back from death! I'm mainly used to Sony phones so this has been an experience.
