[Q] accidentally flashed 4.3 rom to kit kat flashed device

So I accidentally flashed a 4.3 rom to a kit kat flashed note 3. I can get into safestrap 3.7.5 but no matter what rom I flash it just goes to a black screen after I install it. I can get into download mode and safestrap. How do I fix this? I've tried flashing the kit kat rom after wiping everything but it still won't work. loads safestrap, hit continue, then black screen.
Help?
Safestrap keeps saying
E: unable to mount '/system'
etc

Please do not double post your questions.
The link you posted in the DK thread is the correct method to flash completely back to stock KK.
You can start over from there.
Please remember to read before flashing anything.

This will restore your phone to stock KK. You will then be able to root and install the latest SS.

Thank you so much! I also had another question can you downgrade back to nce if you are on 4.4.4? Using the same method as before ?

Very easy go back and reread the OP and follow each step exactly you've obviously missed a step.
Take your time its easy to miss something if your frustrated.
As long as you get into download you'll be fine and can get it fixed.

Trying to unroot the Moto X

I know how to do all of this, but I can't do it without the stock firmware.:crying:
Here is the link to the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/ref-complete-moto-x-guides-information-t2603358
I actually found tons of other forums too, but they all had the requirement of the stock firmware, and they all are pointing to the same link, to get the firmware.
Link: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0
But so, this website is down for some reason, and I need the stock firmware. If anyone has it and could upload it somewhere, that would be awesome. :good:

What device are you on ? There are some firmware packages here on XDA.

Geez, what happened to the sbf files on the droid developer's site? I hope someone has b/u copies of the firmware b/c I don't think I do!
My goodness what a huge loss if these sbf's are gone forever! Does anyone know what is going on with the site?

Flashing stock recovery back on your phone is the exact same process you took to flash a 3rd party recovery onto your phone, only using the stock Recovery.IMG file.
If you need instructions... then...
Link in my Signature has this info -> How To Return To stock Use option 2. If all you want is stock recovery, you can just do the mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img line and skip the rest if that is all you need.
OR....
If you are rooted and you can obtain the correct recovery.img and copy it to your phone, you can flash via your phone (without setting up Fastboot,etc on your PC) by following -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/ref-return-to-stock-recovery-rooted-t3027079 (this does have info on obtaining the stock recovery for your phone via your PC, you'll just need to copy the IMG file to the phone before you proceed.)

[Q] 4.4.4?

Hello! Long story short I was on 5.0 rooted and like a COMPLETE idiot I tried installing TWRP. Basically it broke my phone, so I went to 4.4.2 and tried going up from there. For whatever reason it won't let me do the OTA, so I was looking for the 4.4.4 Stock firmware for my G900A but no matter where I search, here or on Google, I can't seem to find it :/ Could anyone lend a hand? Thanks!

Use the downgrade firmware in this thread ( step 5 in the notes section of the OP ) after using that firmware you will be able to OTA. Just be careful not to ota to 5.0 or you won't be able to root. Flash the firmware in AP slot in odin 3.09

Thank you! Now something else I was wondering... Isn't 5.0 like 400 something MB? The OTA that I was trying to get *but failed at getting before you sent me the link to the one in that post* was only around 160MB. Is that the 4.4.4 update?

I'm not sure. Personally I'd get back to 4.4.2, root then go back to 5.0 using the thread i posted to you then flash
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3095987
Support is low for the 4.4.x since everyone has moved onto 5.0. Plus no one is working on them roms anymore. The TMS5 is a good rom and the dev is still actively working on improving and adding more to it. Plus in the OP of his thread he has instructions for using safestrap on 5.0.
Sorry i can't help out on the 4.4.4 i was never on it. I never take OTA's.

Now I'm having trouble with root... I flashed that version of 4.4.2 but when I do Towelroot v3 it says "This phone isn't currently supported"
EDIT: Never mind! Figured it out! I think I may have it now lol.

Lol ok.

Restore to factory state.

I Would like to sell my moto G2 and for that I would like to revert all my changes I've made.
I've installed a custom recovery and rooted my Phone.
I'm still running Android 4.4.4 and would then like to upgrade to 5.x.
I've found some posts on the matter, but I didn't find a clear step by step solution.
I always prefer it if I have very detailed instructions when playing around with my phone as I don't regularly flash roms etc and don't want to make any mistakes.
If some one would be so helpful and give me a stet by step instruction on what I have to do (backup, stock rom etc)
Thanks for the help.

I'm terribly sorry for replying to your post even though you asked me not to, but I don't know which thread you ment by the 4.4.4 Android thread ( I'm not a regular here).
While trying to make a nandroid backup I ran into some trouble.
I seem to have a folder on my sd card /data/data/org.mozilla.firefox which seems to be corrupted in some form.
I tried to delete it via Terminal and root, I tried deleting it via the recovery.
I tried reinstalling firefox, which throws me the error 24, so I unlinked my google account and relinked it and tried to install firefox again but that didn't help.
I'm running out of ideas here.
Thanks for the help.
