did you check out Sdbags thread? All the instructions you need are there:

Hi! Some time ago I installed an official OTA, then I flashed some custom ROM for testing. Now I want to back to the Stock, but while I try to install the firmware with RSD Lite I get an error that some files cannot be downgraded or something. What I am doing wrong? How can I back to stock?
depends on what ROM you are trying to install. from what I have read, downgrading is a no-no (meaning that the bootloader changed).
that being said, have you tried to flash the FW via mfastboot?
did you make a nandroid of stock?
also, if you had Xposed on this custom ROM, sometimes flashing a different ROM without uninstalling Xposed can lead to problems.
Flash the stock rom with fastboot.
Or Try to flash Version 4.4.4 by from this thread.

I have written all the steps with stock firmware also.
The same happened to me when I tried to install the OTA for my XT1058. I had to flash gpt.bin and fsg.mbn from the OTA zip and all the other components from the stock firmware zip file one by one. The only way it worked for me was using the option 5 in this guide by @KidJoe: http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-ReturnToStock.html
So, try to get the OTA zip for your phone, put gpt.bin and fsg.mbn with the files from the stock firmware and flash them one by one, following the steps from the guide to the letter.
After that phone booted normally and I had to download the OTA again because some parts of the update were missing since I had just flashed gpt.bin and fsg.mbn from it.

Thanks for your reply!
I just try to flash official FW via RSD Lite. No I didn't try flashing via mfastboot becouse I dont know is it safe. I have no nandroid and never used Xposed.

WIPE all your Phone through TWRP.
Download 4.4.2 Firmware from this.

Flash through "MFastBoot" Believe me its safe
I can get to download to use Odin but no bootloader.
It is an SM-T713NZKEXAR US version.
I previously put lineage 14.# and TWRP on it then decided to go to linage 15.#.
Well things went south pretty fast to decided to revert back to stock. The only stock ROM I found was 6.0 so when I run Odin I get SW REV CHECK FAIL: [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1. Which, as I understand it, simply says I am trying to revert to 6.0 from 7.0. So now I am stuck I cannot find stock 7.0 ROM for my device. I need help.
Try to flash this 6.0.1 version: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B05ln7wOX_RxbnpYd05xanRHSjg/view
Thanks, I may give that a shot I just think I will still get a check fail???
I put the latest TWRP on my device using Odin so my goal now is to try and flash lineage 15 if I can boot into recovery. Tomorrow, it's late.
I'm in a weird situation, I flashed the latest stock firmware for my phone (N920GDDS4CRD2_N920GODD3CQJ2_N920GUBU4CRA1_HOME.tar) through odin and now it is stuck. Then I went to download mode again to flash twrp just to try to wipe cache and stuff to get it working, no luck as it wouldn't boot into recovery. Then I tried flashing the same firmware through odin again but I get an error (sw rev. check failed), I know why I am getting this. its because the phone doesn't allow downgrading and the firmware that I am trying to flash is the latest one. Any help would be appreciated.
Check last twrp installed. Next try flash any custom rom.zip
So I used fastboot to flash twrp on my xz3. I succesfully rebooted into that but realised my OS was gone. I downloaded flashtool and firmware from xperifirm but when i try to flash it says cannot open bundle. I tried flashing custom rom but it still says "no os, are you sure you want to boot". I have a lot of problems but the main goal is to get STOCK rom/firmware back
If someone manages to guide me to get stock back, i will provide a cookie
SOLVED: used Newflasher r20
