For camera and gallery there's here in the forum a flashable zip.
For the other apps I don't thinks there's a flashable zip

Oh thanks for your help ! =)
those that do not need specific library you can just instal via play:
Moto app
If a app does not show to you on play, or show as incompatible app, you need a flash zip, that contains the libs and other files that the app may need in those app you need to search, xda have almost all.

I would like to have in cm the learn feature in the dialer
[Warning: I'm relatively new to Android. I've used it for about a year, and I have a decent understanding on how it works. I've rooted and used Safestrap before and know the basics on almost everything, but not much more.]
I'm planning on purchasing a license for Sunshine, and unlocking my bootloader for my new Turbo. I was planning on using it to install a custom rom, like CyanogenMod, since that's the only rom I've used before, and possibly trying some new ones. However, I realized that I would lose all the Motorola features, like Moto Voice, Moto Actions, Moto Display, and so on. I love these features and use them all the time, so I don't want to give them up. Is there some kind of way to keep them with a different rom?
I was thinking that maybe there was a custom rom that has these features, or maybe there's some way to install them onto a regular custom rom.
Any ideas?

If you're planning on going to anything based on cyanogenmod, no. Someone would need to port these apps to the new rom, and no one has done that yet. However, some of the features can be replicated using other apps. For example, Moto Display is almost identical to the native android feature Ambient Display. You can use Ok Google voice commands for most Moto Voice applications.
An alternative would be to download a modified stock firmware (such as the one maintained by Computerfreek), or modify one yourself. This way, you can keep the Moto apps. Modifying your own firmware is very easy using TWRP (which you will install after unlocking your bootloader). Usually it's as simple as finding a flashable .zip file that contains the feature(s) you want to add and flashing it via TWRP.

Hmmm... How would I go about creating the flashable .zip like you said. Remember, I'm still a relative noob.

You don't need to. Just download the ones that you want. For example:
1. Upgrade to the latest official firmware (SU4TL-44) and unlock your bootloader with Sunshine.
2. Want root access? Use TWRP to flash SuperSU. Download that flashable zip here: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
3. Want to use the Xposed framework to easily modify your device in a ton of different ways? Use TWRP to flash it. Get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 (you need SDK22 arm)
4. Want to add audio optimizations? Flash PON-3. Get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530976. Flash it, same as the others.
The installation for all of these is the same. Once your bootloader is unlocked and TWRP is installed, boot into TWRP, select "install", select the .zip file that you want to install, and flash it. Done.

I've used Xposed before on my old Safestrap device. I thought about using Xposed on the stock rom, but I was hoping there was another option, since custom roms offer much more than Xposed modules do. Thanks for the links, I think I'll go with what you said. One question though, so there's no way to flash or install the Moto suite onto a custom rom (with or without TWRP)?
And one more thing, is it possible to use the IR sensors in the Turbo to wake up the Ambient display? (Like when you wave your hand over it and it shows the Moto Display.)

There is no way that I know of to get Moto et al working on a different rom. Like I said, the apps would have to be ported. I'm not very knowledgeable about what that entails, but I do know that the Moto apps need more than just their respective apks to function properly. They require extra libraries, drivers, etc. to work, most of which are probably kernel-related (you can't use the stock kernel on a non-Motorola rom). So someone porting those apps would have to either integrate these supplementary files into CM or AOSP or whatever, or rewrite the apps so that they rely on existing google code.

Dang it, that's unfortunate. Guess Xposed, and custom kernals and images will have to suffice. Thanks for the help!
Any recommendations for making the stock rom seem more custom?

Xposed, particularly gravitybox. I'm not really sure what you meant when you said that custom roms offer so much more than xposed does. I used custom roms for a long time on my Galaxy S4, and except for AOSP vs TouchWiz or installing a more recent version of android, I can't think of a single thing that a custom rom can do that an xposed module can't.

For me, custom roms don't exactly offer much more than modules do, but the experience of using a custom rom is much greater. Since everything is made by the same developers, it flows well with each other. Instead of having to rely on multiple modules that have to be updated, you can just install what is essentially a new OS, and get an entirely new flavour of Android.

But there are many functions and apps that do exactly the same thing.
Ambient Display = Moto Display
OK Google = Moto Voice
plus tons of apps to read notifications, texts, emails.
Etc.
I dumped my Motorola stuff months ago and have everything I need.
It's not that big a deal.
Open source is almost always better than proprietary stuff anyway.

Agreed. If you're willing to learn and set up some things, I bet you could get 100% moto functionality without a single moto app. Does anyone know of an app that will give me the chop-chop flashlight? Because when I eventually make the move to CM (assuming we ever get CM13), that will be the feature I miss most. And I'm being completely serious about that.

I find Moto Display to be much cleaner than Ambient Display.
Moto Voice was nice because of the custom launch phrase, and the system commands you could do.
Moto Actions comes in handy almost every day, especially the Dual Chop and Camera wrist twist.
If I could find I way to replace all or most of this then I would be content.

Download Commandr from the play store. I think that allows you to customize your OK Google phrase. It also allows you to add or customize OK Google commands.
But yeah, I use the actions a lot too, and I don't know of an app that will replace them.
The problem I have with Ambient Display is that it doesn't work when I toggle my lockscreen off. MotoDisplay still showed me notifications. With ambient display and lockscreen off, I have no way to visually know my notifications.
Hi, i found this flashable file on XDA, stock moto camera + moto gallery.
i'm using AOKP 7.1 and this file has solved for me the camera bug: "can't connect to camera"
hope this help you!

What version do you have from the Play Store? I'm still on RR 6.X. and this one below -- from new Moto G5 -- is newer camera than I had. Thank you to @Rahuld107 for finding it!

I just downloaded this modded APK, and installed it. I then froze the older Motorola (system) camera. The new one shows up as a user app camera. For a few minutes I had two cameras, until I froze the old one.
Everything works well. Yes, it even has professional mode, but I probably won't use that. Video works well too.
