not sure what you did at all because all the phones are rooted the same way.
i would download the 4.2.2 firmware here
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=0&file=18
then go to this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2603358
and follow the guide for returning to stock.
then after you are stock decide if you want to unlock your bootloader or not. then pick the guide based on what you decide and follow it for root

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.

so what your now telling me 3-4 post later is that you did not listen to me at all so you asked for help and when i gave you the correct answer on what to do you did not listen.
so i will try this one more time the 4.4 firmware package you keep using from the Moto x toolkit is not the Sprint firmware so STOP using it and download the firmware from the link below. and flash it with the above commands like i told you to do in my first post

so ive used the file you provided me with and am still having the same exact issues. I appreciate your help.

I feel like i need to rewrite the radio partition but which I'm assumung is the NON-HLOS but every time i try to write to it i get permission denied

ok sorry i left out a command i think i know what is going on
Code:
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
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
i know you just did this but do it one more time and make sure you do the erase userdata and cache commands and then reboot.
after wiping everything i am not sure what would be wrong i have a sprint device and i have never had this issue.

yeah I've tried it about ten times now and i think theres something else from the verizon root that mustve gotten flashed and is causing this

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.

Thank you so much! I was wondering what kept causing rsd lite to fail. Im lead technician at a spring store and could just AE it but really dont want a refurb, especially since this phone is two days old

sorry but how do I remove the var line?

ive got it figured out thank you for your help

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!

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 don't know the differences in the ATT Rom vs America Movil... I know the ATT rom has a lot of bloat.

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.....

Thanks anyone for the suport, tomorrow imma try with that rom, i'm reall tired today, was a lng day at my work, i will post the results, again, thanks everyone, wait for my post tomorow.

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.

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.

Careful.. That is an example for Verizon. It might not match the XML that is in whatever rom TUESONER is trying to flash on an XT1058.

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

The ROM isn't the original that was running my phone, i got 4.2.2 out of the box, now i will indtsll thst ROM because is 4.4.2 & i will not brick or have problems, the fastboot that you attached doesn't work with the comands ''mfastboot'' i use just ''fastboot''?

i did it!
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.

XT1092 Nandroid / Fimware

Dear All,
I installed the Brazillian version yesterday, but now I'm having some weird issues.. 4G connection takes longer, everytime Im on WIFI and disconnect from WIFI it will show me 3G first for a long time before switching back to 4G. I don't think I flashed any modem since I never flashed "NON-HLOS.bin" and "fsg.mbn". Is it possible for someone to please create me a nandroid backup of their XT1092 version of the Moto X? Preferable Someone from the Netherlands or Germany (just to be sure we have the same firmware).
Hope someone can help me out here, thanks!

I used this guide to create the backup http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2450045, I guess to use these dumps you do the reverse, eg

Sprint Moto Z(2) Force retail hybrid step by step

So I finally got my hands on a Sprint Moto Z2 Force. It took me a few tries, but I am finally running the stock retail firmware without all of the Sprint garbage hanging out in the background.
This obviously requires an unlocked bootloader, so make sure you take care of that first.
As with anything found on XDA, your mileage may vary and if you brick your device, it's on you. Don't blame me!
The device I picked up was not carrier unlocked, but I was able to fix that pretty easily. With the directions I found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/how-to/tutorial-guide-moto-z2-force-how-to-t3860534
What I did was flash the newest Sprint Oreo firmware minus the gpt.bin available here:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
SKIP gpt.bin!!!
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4

fastboot flash system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system_b system_b.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot reboot
And then downloaded the retail firmware:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
And I downloaded the bootloader warning fix from the thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/development/remove-bootloader-unlocked-warning-t3702353
I coppied the entire retail image into a new folder and swapped the modem NON-HLOS.bin from the Sprint image into the "new" image folder and also swapped out the logo.bin with the one from the bootloader warning fix. I then flashed everything INCLUDING the gpt.bin from the "new" image folder.

fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot reboot
I chose not to install TWRP, but I did boot the latest version from fastboot to install magisk.
Everything is running GREAT. I popped in my AT&T sim card and it runs without a single hitch! I am even passing all SafetyNet checks with magisk hide.

I can also zip and upload a copy of the final files I flashed if there is interest or if someone here is capable of converting into a TWRP flashable image.

It still shows up as sprint under software channel. Oddly, the software variant is no longer there.

Shown here

All you would need to do is flash system/oem/boot from the variant you want to run. Did that for mine. (The partition table binary you talk about doesn't really matter, our guid is so similar a few bits won't matter unless it is to a large revision change. That is why it is there. Like when I flashed Oreo with the flash all instead of doing the OTA.)
I.E. downloaded -11 flash all, downloaded latest AT&T flash all, copy/paste/replace the boot/oem and system sparse chunks from AT&T to the folder I extracted the Sprint flash all, created a bat to do the flashing and sat back and waited for a reboot and Bam, AT&T service worked.

I didn't use a batch file since I'm on Mac, but yes, more or less the same result
I did the partition table et all since I was coming from nougat and didn't want to wait for all the individual updates from Sprint. After the first three incremental updates I flashed the entirety of the latest Oreo update. And then flashed the retail. Wasn't sure how much different the two would be, so I flashed everything.

yo hice lo siguiente y esto paso
Install the stock rom (retail) and then install the modem NON-HLOS.bin belonging to sprint and ready for me works perfect I have internet 4g everything working perfect.

Hey, just wanted to say that this has been working for me for about a week, getting LTE working for Verizon on the Sprint variant Z2F, but sometime last night it kicked me off the network and greyed out all the APN settings again. Currently I haven't been able to get it to work again just pushing the apn-conf file, and fear I may have to re-flash everything again. Is there anything else I should try?

Followed your guide and I have a slick non - bloated moto ZF2 running! Thank you for the command by command also, as I have a crap-top that has some USB - C voltage issues so not all the commands follow thru...bat files are great for speed but if you have a cranky USB connection manually is the way to go! I'll let this hybrid cook for about a week and then perhaps start playing around with some of the amazing kernels that have been put together for this device!

Correct me if I was wrong, did you mean we could just copy boot/oem/system from desired variant to current variant and run flash all?
Mine is also a Sprint variant. I wanted to flash retail like OP. Which way below is safer or less chance of messing up the phone:
way 1: copy boot/oem/system from retail to sprint folder and flash all sprint folder;
way2: do what OP did, move sprint modem to retail folder and flash all retail folder.
Thank you.

Boot/system/OEM. That is what I did with AT&T and all functions fine.

Hi everyone,
I'm based in the UK and bought a TMO Z2 Force (US), at the time I did something similar to his topic to get the retail version working with the card (retail only was not getting any signal/detecting SIM Card), I never had NFC working and tried to do a clean install with the Retail version and adding the modem file from TMO but GPS doesn't seem to work fine and still no NFC, which files do I need to copy from TMO ROM to have NFC, GPS and modem working?

It would most likely maintain the original T-Mobile modem in this way.
Copy Boot/system/OEM from retail firmware to T-Mobile firmware. Read the whole thread and you could have better understanding

Just read everything again and if I want to go from T-Mobile phone to a Retail one, flashing for scratch what you're saying doesn't make sense since I'm not upgrading from one version (T-Mobile) to another (Retail), I erase everything in the phone using TWRP and then I install the retail official rom with the T-Mobile modem even so NFC doesn't work.

As I mentioned earlier, you need TMobile modem and probably related files to get NFC to work. Hence you need to flash T-Mobile .
Copy Boot/OEM/System from retail maintains the Android system you want.
Since you already wipe out the phone, trying this way won't hurt

1. Download both TMO and retail firmware. Unzip them to two different folders
2. Copy Boot/OEM/system from retail folder to TMobile folder. Make sure new files overwrite the old ones in TMO folder.
3. Flash this TMO folder firmware.
