[Q] Will ghost roms work on XT1060? - Moto X Q&A

Will ghost roms work on the XT1060? I know that technically the XT1060 is classified as ghost_verizon and while I know that hardware and software wise there is no difference I'm wondering if there's a difference in radio. The reason I ask is because I haven't been able to get the CM12 nightlies to flash but I'm not sure if it's just because it doesn't fall under ghost or if it's an issue with TWRP or something else.

Were they the XT1060 or ghost roms though because cm makes XT1060 specific Roms as well?

I use the Ghost nightlies and they work well. Most people have to flash CM11 before flashing CM12. If you haven't had CM11 on your phone (you don't have to set it up) that may be the problem.

Really?? Why would that be? I mean I'll try it but that's confusing.

It's been discussed in other threads, but can't recall the exact reason.
However, I did try from stock 4.4.4 to cm12, and that failed. Thus, I installed cm11 first, let it boot to home screen, then rebooted to recovery and installed cm12. Haven't looked back since (2+ months).

Alright then I'll take that advice and give it a shot.

Safestrap on i9295

Would it be possible to get safestrap working on the international version and if so would we then be able to flash roms without needing Odin to get Wi-Fi working? I've tried the other version and it installs and I get the new splash screen but if I press recovery the screen just goes black.

Does international version not have CWM already?

CWM doesn't do the same thing of creating those "slots" that Safestrap does... unless something new has happened with CWM of late since I haven't used it for quite some time personally.

Safestrap seems to offer better functionality than CWM and we have to use Odin to get Wi-Fi working.

TWRP for MB886 (best news I have read)

Hey guys I was chatting with arrrghhh and he told me that he can try whipping TWRP for us if we want it. He even thought we had it since long time. Lol
I will be one for sure to have this recovery even though cwm touch is working great for me. But more options the better for our devices.

That's exciting news ... I use TWRP 2.6 on a Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket and on my Kindle and it is great. I've always wished to have it for my phone, plus it's reminiscent of those old SafeStrap days.
I'm dreadfully ignorant here...
What exactly is the difference between TWRP and CWM/CWM-Based Recoveries?
ATM this doesn't seem too exciting... (Of course I haven't used TWRP before so that doesn't really help either...)
It have more many options to mess with. But so after testing the first attempt we still have the same offset problems. So this is a work in progress

Basically twrp is like safestrap for a unlocked bootloader.

So it supports multi-ROM or does it not have that functionality from SS3?
No, for my understanding multirom is a modified TWRP or TWRP with the multirom hack. Yes is run through TWRP but we also need the hack to be active on it for it to work. In other words that is a different project
Sent from my Atrix HD using Pacman rom and XDA 4 Premium
For the ones that don't know, think of TWRP like CWM Touch only with more options and things to do. It has features like a file manager, multi-zip flashing, more ways to manipulate the sd card (partition, file system, etc), custom themes, and more.
this is awesome

That was a bug with 2.7 and stock ROMs. Seems like the larger the ROM, the more likely it was to happen. It was fixed with 2.7.1. But it had a screen timeout bug. I'd highly suggest dr87's custom 2.7.1, its built with his kernel, which fixed the screen timeout bug. Plus he added thermal control and knock on. Much better than stock TWRP

Could be the auto file name it's creating is too long. Try manually naming your backup.

Looks like you shifted from stock to CM and restored all the apps (moto stock apps included) and sensor services is now incompatible with your current ROM.
Nah, i'm running stock, didn't do anything.
It's gone after a reboot, but curious what triggered it.

Have you done downgrade from 5.1 to 4.4.x lately?
It's usually caused by that and it does exactly what it says.
If you didn't downgrade, then maybe you've uninstalled some of the moto apps related, which might have upgraded the fw.

Yes, if you flash a GSM rom such as the xt1095, it will work for GSM companies. But you will lose CDMA which means it won't work with verizon's service.

I flashed over the latest version of CM and lost my CDMA LTE service. My phone still registers as a XT1096. Is there a way to get my service back? I'm with Verizon. Or do I have to flash back to stock, relock bootloader and start all over again?

As I said in the post you quoted you WILL lose cdma service if you flash it. There is no way to have a stock rom with marshmallow and cdma.

I'll second this, latest CM nightly has full CDMA LTE support. Been 3 or so hours haven't seen any major bugs, or anything that would be considered experience breaking.
Only thing your really lose is Moto Voice, as ambient display works basically the same as Active Display albeit without the slower co-processor.
i think the chop for flash light and twist for camera works better then moto tbh and no real bugs yet either but havent played with it much
I'd love a stock rooted 6.0 rom. I'm stock rooted on 5.1 right now and everything is working great. Anyone have an update on CM now that it's been a couple days? Has anyone attempted to add Xposed to 5.1?
I'm not that experienced with this but I have an xt1096 and unlocked the boot loader and flashed twrp on it then did a clean install of cyanpop 5.0(runs android 6.0.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3277786) it runs nicely in my opinion other than a couple bugs that need squashing
