Hello folks.
I'm on a bit of a limbo. Can you help me?
Fist of all i should state that i was a former Galaxy S3 owner, so even if I have some experience with the underworld of rooting and flashing, bootloader issues are a bit alien for me.
The problem:
My Brazilian Moto X with unlocked bootloader was on 4.4, and after receiving the OTA update, i thought that i could update it if I removed root and etc (after all i was not using Xposed and ETC, so no deep modifications at /system that i know).
Of course i was wrong, and as greeted with a nice bootloop by my moto X. No problem, I got the 4.4.2 UK and flashed it thought RSD lite. After the flashing, I dit not liked the modifications the UK 4.4.2 retail have (like carrier name on bar, etc etc) and just flashed Philz and recovered my nandroid.
All is nice, but now i can't update to 4.4.2 Brazilian because i can't install 4.4 Retail Brazilian trought RSD lite, since the Moto X just detects that it haves 4.4.2 bootloader and not let me downgrade! I'm in a Limbo \o/
What now? There is any way to downgrade the bootloader? There is any one who have a full Brazilian 4.4.2 image (or a image without carrier name on the bar) for unlocked bootloaders? Any 4.4.2 flashable update using CWM or TWRP?
Oh god, so many questions. Thanks for your atention!

you can't downgrade the bootlaoder sorry
as for the carrier name in the bar someone will make a xposed mod to remove it.
i would either stay with 4.4 if that makes you happy or flash the correct 4.4.2 firmware for your device and tweak it to your liking.
Unfortunately you cannot downgrade the bootloader from 4.4.2 to 4.4.
Is it so dificult to do a 4.4.2 flashable update or we just lack devs?

If you find the factory 4.4.2 image for your device, then you manually flash the 4.4.2 files.

I can only find the UK one. There is no 4.4.2 factory image for Brazilian Moto X, and i really don't want to install Xposed to remove the carrier name from the bar, since i play Square Enix titles.

Boot loaders are number differently that's why everyone who has flash, or just about everyone who has flashed a new firmware has had issue evedn though the firmwares are 4.4.2, morale . Flash only your specific carrier firmware and all this craziness would stop, my 2 cents

It certainly seems Motorola has changed the game with 4.4.2, flashing other carriers firmware at this time seems quite risky. As you said I wouldn't recommend it right now until more is known and all full flash images of 4.4.2 are released.

Someone should start a thread with all info and have it stickied, getting stupid here, miss info, assuming have a unlocked boot loader will prevent hard bricks.

OP's issue was that he wanted to downgrade to 4.2 -- not that he was trying to change the carrier version of the 4.4.2 bootloader. Are there any threads about someone having an issue trying to flash a different carrier's version of 4.4.2?

Threads no but multiple threads about issues, stay away from flashing another carriers 4.4.2 firmware at this point in time, I'm trying to get boot loader numbers for all carrier firmware , so far all north american and south american boot loaders are the same but T-Mobile and AT&T have yet to be released, European boot loaders are not yet posted

That's the risk of being impatient and flashing things in a hurry when they drop....that weren't made for our particular phone.
Remember ...good things come to those who wait.......and bad things for those who are too impatient.

I was on verizon galaxy nexus for over two years. I wanted better radio performance, so i got a moto x. Nexus bootloader was unlocked and I was a bit of a crackflasher.
I have unlocked bootloader on moto x and installed twrp and supersu.
I did all this before taking firmware update, so I can see how it runs on 4.2.2. I ran it awhile and wanted to try kk out. I downloaded the ota update and went to have it autoflash, but instead, it rebooted into twrp.
so, I have downloaded rsdlite (i used to have a droid x, so i am familiar) and will get the 4.4.2 firmware downloaded too.
Q: can i flash aosp 4.4.2 roms with my x in it's 4.2.2 state or do i need the 4.4.2 update first?
Q: are there standalone radio (baseband) files around I can download and flash in recovery?
Thx!
RSDLite when you have an unlocked bootloader?
Grab the 4.4.2 sbf, extract the individual imgs, then flash with fastboot.
You will find the moto x is no nexus I'm afraid. Not a flashaholics phone for sure. There's just a few ROMs....not a lot of mods, and whatever you do, once on 4.4.2....never downgrade. It can cost you your phone. Dev edition or not.
Just a heads up!!
BTW....not knocking it....I still recommend it to everyone I know!!! Except the couple rooting and tinkering types....then I recommend the N5 hands down.
update : upgraded to kk firmware with rsdlite. bootloader still unlocked. I am on Eclipse now and enjoying it.

I moved from a galaxy nexus last fall to the X. I definitely flashed constantly... now with an unlocked bootloader (MotoMaker!) I don't have the need. Xposed is all you really need to get features you want, unless you just like to tinker.
I have a bootloader-UNLOCKED Moto X XT1058 and I'm running one of the really old CM lollipop builds that came out back in November.
I love Lollipop but I miss my Moto Display, and I was wondering if there was a safe way for me to downgrade back to a 4.4.x firmware so I could get it back.
My bootloader is unlocked, but I'm concerned about any issues that would arise from downgrading from a 5.x to a 4.x firmware. Is this safe?
Thanks

I used one of the first CM12 ROMs available in november and then returned to an official ROM for XT1058 (KitKat 4.4.4) and it worked flawlessly, so you should be ok.

I believe that CM only flashes /System. IF so, to return to a stock Moto rom, just boot into fastboot/bootloader, check the bootloader version, and the corresponding Moto rom, or a newer Moto Rom.
30.70 = original 4.2.2
30.71 = 4.2.2 OTA with camera update
30.B2 = 4.4
30.B4 = 4.4.2
30.B7 = 4.4.4
Umm. Custom ROMs have nothing to do with anything technically speaking. Unless it's an official Moto update that was pushed to the device via OTA or RSD, then it might change things depending on your carrier device. Downgrading is nothing more than flashing a ROM or restoring a nandroid in the case of ROMs via TWRP/CWM or whatever you use.
Problem one. The fact you asked this means you probably goofed up and never made a nandroid backup. If you did make one. Just restore that stock nandroid and you're set. If not. Time to RSD or fastboot back to stock.
You can always flash back to stock with RSD however, I too missed ambient display until I tried Dynamic Notifications. Totally replaces ambient display for any of the CM based ROMs I have tried.
Thanks for all the help, guys!
One last question, I'm retarded. I have the Rogers Canada version but the Rogers firmware (ROGERS-CA_GHOST_KXA20.16-1.26_cid14_CFC_1FF.xml) is apparently 4.4.2 - will it matter if I use a different firmware that is 4.4.4 (which corresponds to my Bootloader version)?

NEVER use a firmware that is for an older bootloader.. i.e. NEVER DOWNGRADE.
If bootloader version on your phone is 30.B7, then it corresponds with 4.4.4, so you MUST use a STOCK Moto 4.4.4 SBF!!!!
But if your bootloader version is 30.B4, that corresponds with 4.4.2, and you MAY use either 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 SBF. Just know that if you use 4.4.4, you will not be able to downgrade to 4.4.2 in the future.
If you can't find your rom.. check ALL of the sources linked in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/info-tip-web-sites-official-leaked-roms-t2923347

Are you asking about flashing a 3rd party rom, like CM? or a Stock Moto rom for a different carrier/model?
I would recommend against flashing a ROM not meant for your carrier/model... There are several possible outcomes which I've seen.
It works, but GPT.BIN version is slightly different and prevents your ability to flash back to the correct ROM for your carrier/model.
Flashes "correctly", but renders your cellular radio unusable.
works ok, but no differently, and no added functions.
Keep in mind, the above only holds true for flashing a different STOCK MOTO ROMS..
NOW, if you are asking about flashing a 3rd party ROM, like CM, or other, you should be relatively safe, and be able to flash back to stock if/when you wish.

i've an xt1052 indian version can anyobdy tell which rom to use, i tried all that i could get, none of it worked
I just received an xt1254 and unlocked with Sunshine, and now experimenting with alternate firmware to get rid of all the vzw crapware.
I bought the xt1254 mainly as a Kit Kat reference device, as I already have a Nexus 6 for newer android builds.
So I flashed the LRA 4.4.4 boot, system, and radio, and everything seems to be working except for wifi; when I attempt to toggle the switch, it pauses for a few seconds and then reboots.
I've also tried flashing the radio back to vzw and doesn't fix it.
As the xt1254 and xt1250 are identical hardware, I have no idea why this is happening.
Any ideas / solutions?

People have flashed XT1254 (Verizon) firmware over XT1250 (after the FREE bootloader unlock the XT1250 has) and got it to work, so it should work the other way around also.
Were you on Lollipop 5.1 (Verizon) on the XT1254 originally or were you still on Kitkat 4.4.4? (I don't know what LRA means). I know 4.4.4 is Kitkat, but just double checking.
If you were on 5.1 on the XT1254 why not try flashing 5.1 from the XT1250? However yes you would probably have to flash Verizon radio.

The device came with vzw 4.4.4 preinstalled, but did have to flash SU4TL-44_44 boot and system to get Sunshine to work.
Now I'm back on the final vzw 4.4.4 build with the vzw kk 70.47 bootloader.
The lra kk bootloader is 70.41. If the bootloader version was an issue though, I don't think it would boot at all.
LRA is the generic cdma designation for xt1250 firmware, i.e. "LRA_XT1250_KXG21.50-11_8_CFC.xml.zip", and "QUARK_LRA_5.0.2_LXG22.33-12.27_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip".
These are the only official firmwares currently available for xt1250, and I'd be surprised if there are any further updates. Historically, the generic cdma variants don't receive as many updates as vzw or global variants.

Yeah, I monetarily forgot XT1250 was still on 5.0.2. A bunch of people flashed 5.1 from XT1254 to get 5.1 back when the XT1250 still only had Kitkatv4.4.4.

With unlocked bootloader you can install TWRP, root, Titanium backup, and freeze all the bloatware, even remove it.

Strange, I just tried a fresh flash of lra 4.4.4 boot, radio, logo, and system, and now everything is working
I wonder if maybe I forgot to wipe data before; doubtful but it's the only thing I can think of that would explain why it now works.

I've seen lots of threads on stock latest Marshmallow MCG24.251-5 but when I look for radios, I seem to only find the latest lollipop radios. I'm running RR and have one of those flashed (MDM9625_104651.11.05.16.03R QUARK_CUST), but my wife is running stock Turbo and got Marshmallow OTA and has baseband version MDM9625_41.51.07.22.02R QUARK_CUST. Has anyone got this to flash? Is this a significant update? Is this something that would allow VoLTE? I'm surprised I'm not seeing it mentioned around, and sort of confused, so I suspect I might have something wrong? Please advise.

Yes. It's posted in latest Computerfreek274 Marshmallow thread. In the op.
The new Verizon Marshmallow radio for the Droid Turbo XT1254 only allows VoLTE the same way the Verizon Lollipop radio for the Droid Turbo XT1254 allows VoLTE -- to Verizon customers. And you have to be on stock Motorola firmware or a ROM based on stock firmware.
It also allows Wi-Fi calling, but again the same restrictions.
Won't give VoLTE nor Wi-Fi calling on CM-based custom ROMs and/or to non-Verizon users.
Won't do you any harm to flash it (you'll have the latest Verizon radio), but unless you are on stock or a ROM based on stock (like CF) and are also a Verizon customer you won't get VoLTE or Wi-Fi calling, at least until the CM ROM devs figure out the magic code.

If you are on a locked bootloader Droid Turbo, you don't need it.
@Sparksys, this file is the 6.0.1 Verizon Marshmallow radio + bootloader for the Droid Turbo XT1254.
If you have a locked or unlocked bootloader and have taken the 6.0.1 OTA for Droid Turbo XT1254, then you should already have this Verizon Marshmallow radio + bootloader. From previous posts, I see you took or somehow installed that OTA:

So, you should already have this radio & bootloader -- as does anyone else who took the 6.0.1 OTA. If the 6.0.1 OTA is not yet available for download to someone, they can install it through file found here on XDA.
NOTE: For people who haven't taken the Marshmallow OTA, PLEASE unlock your bootloader while you can on Lollipop. Grab your freedom! THEN, you can install the OTA.
The only reason you would need this 6.0.1 Verizon Marshmallow Droid Turbo radio + bootloader file is if you have an UNLOCKED bootloader Droid Turbo XT1254, were on a custom ROM, and did not take the Verizon Marshmallow OTA. You can still have the latest Verizon Droid Turbo 6.0.1 radio by flashing this file in TWRP.
That is why @RoboCuz was asking for the file. His wife is still on stock and got it through the OTA -- like you did. He has unlocked bootloader, was on a custom ROM and also wanted it.
And for people who don't like the performance or battery useage of the stock Verizon Marshmallow OTA, there's a debloated, tweaked, optimized version available:

You can still have the latest Verizon Droid Turbo 6.0.1 radio by flashing this file in TWRP.
That is why @RoboCuz was asking for the file. His wife is still on stock and got it through the OTA -- like you did. He has unlocked bootloader, was on a custom ROM and also wanted it.
And for people who don't like the performance or battery useage of the stock Verizon Marshmallow OTA, there's a debloated, tweaked, optimized version available:

But guess what? You have to have an UNLOCKED bootloader to install it!

That's some deep research right there haha
I don't need the radio for me
I need it to my friend..he somehow played with network application and now he doesn't have network connectivity
His solution as I know is to flash radio/modem again but I can't seem to find it anywhere
Do you know where can I find modem or radio for locked bootloader?

One of the devs can answer this better, but as far as I know to reinstall any separate element on a locked bootloader Motorola phone you have to use RSD or ADB. With RSD, you need official entire firmware. ADB/fastboot you can install separate elements.
Possibly you can take the TWRP zipped file, unzip them and flash them in ADB? From what I read in one of the threads, on the Moto XT1225 the 6.0.1 radio comes in three separate files... so probably the same on the Droid Turbo XT1254?

I know that I need RSD but I couldn't find the radio
But I didn't think about this TWRP zipped file thing..I will try it soon
