Hi everyone! I'm new here.
I tried to downgrade my XT1040 using fastboot from 5.1, but when the phone restarted, Lollipop was still there. The phone was formatted and with no network signal and Wi-Fi capabilities :crying: . The phone enters in a loop of restarting that doesn't stops until I manually turn it off.
I've tried to install stock ROMs via fastboot and via TWRP, but the problem persist. The bootloader is unlocked.
I'm looking for a solution as I haven´t found anything useful on the internet...
PLEASE HELP!!!
You can NOT downgrade via fastboot to a version with lower BL (e.g. KitKat), and even if you manage to do that, chances are you will receive an OTA update that pushes you into an unrecoverable brick state.
For now, since your device can still power on, I believe flashing stock and wiping data afterwards should be suffice to get it back on track.

Finally, I found a stock ROM for my region (Latin America) so I installed it via fastboot with mfastboot and adb. It seems that the loose of WiFi and network capabilities it's a common issue on devices running an incompatible version of Android.
Thanks! (close topic)

I'm trying to sell my moto x so I factory reset it but when it tries to make you type something in it didn't give you the option to use a keyboard, it only let you use voice typing. So I tried flashing some factory firmware from here after removing the line in the xml file that prevents them from flashing.
ATT 4.4.2 flashed fine and then now Wifi and bluetooth won't turn on.
ATT 4.2.2 and ATT 4.4 won't flash. Fastboot screen on the phone says "downgraded security version" so it refuses to flash those.
I never had any custom ROM's on here. It was rooted previously but HO LEE S**T it was the most convoluted process ever and I'm never doing that again. What do I do? Has anyone else had this problem?
okay somehow it got fixed.
I tried flashing 4.4 using this guide, the manual way. It kept throwing "FAILED <remote failure>" for half the stuff but i just kept going :silly: and at the end it rebooted and wifi was working. Despite trying to flash 4.4, it still has 4.4.2 on it...
really makes me appreciate how easy everything is with Nexus 5
Hey guys,
I rooted my HTC One m7, so that it could connect to the Bluetooth speaker system in my car, as it doensn't usually support rSAP. Because of the root I wasn't somehow able to install updates, so I tried almost every method I could find on the internet and finally got so far, that I crashed it completely.
I was abnormally able to flash a firmware, without having unlocked security (S-On). I've read on many differnet websites, that I shouldn't have been able to get so far. Therefore my operating system doesn't fit the firmware anymore and the device doesn't start anymore. It's currently flashed to CWM recovery, so I'm able to sideload ROMs.
Right now, I haven't found any ROM that would work with the firmware, which I'm not able to flash to a later version anymore. Does any of you guys have a ROM (or know a website where you can find it) that works with firmware 5.11.401.10? Or do you know any method without turning off Security to bring the device back to factory reset version?
Thanks for your help anyway!
Hello,
So my Moto X (1st gen, 2013, XT1058) used to work fine on KitKat but after it auto-updated to Lollipop it started messing up more and more every day. The phone is fully stock and locked. Here's a brief list of problems:
random freezes and crashes of apps and the OS itself
random screen freezes (doesn't respond to touches) or completely blank screen apart from the notification bar, often times nothing help but a reboot
random reboots, "optimizing apps" every so often on boot, especially when on charger
flaky and unreliable WiFi, not connecting when it should or disconnecting at random including when screen goes off (despite having "always on" selected)
GPS would sometimes have difficulty acquiring lock and would lose lock randomly (worked just fine before)
I'm not quite sure what to do at this point. It's the AT&T variant which means the bootloader is not unlockable. It is also updated to the latest OTA (build LPAS23.12-21.7-1) which means no rooting method works, or at least I haven't been able to find any. So I can't get even a temproot. I tried everything I could find, nothing worked and I'm running out of options. I love this phone and I'd like to get it back to working order. I'm wholeheartedly hoping someone here will have some good advice or some resource I haven't tried.
Here's what I tried so far:
multiple factory resets, both from system settings and through recovery
didn't help, works for a while but all the issues reappear soon after
rooting with KingRoot
failed, rooting method not available
rooting using this method
failed (not surprising, it does mention it doesn't work on OTA)
unlocking BL via Moto's official unlock service
device not supported
installing moforoot
failed, mofoverify just quits silently and the phone shows a message about some missing fastboot var
unlocking BL using Sunshine
says the device should be supported but then fails acquiring temproot, the phone just reboots
reflashing stock KitKat from here (file: ATT_XT1058_4.4.4-KXA21.12-L1.26_CFC_1FF.xml.zip) via fastboot
failed, OS/BL downgrade not allowed
reflashing stock Lollipop from here (file: ATT_XT1058_5.1.0_LPAS23.12-21.7-1_cid1_CFC.xml.zip) via fastboot
partial success, managed to flash a few parts, however it fails on all relevant partitions (gpt, boot, system), reports "downgrade not allowed" just like with KitKat which is surprising, this version/build should be exactly the same as what's currently on the phone
wiping userdata and cache via fastboot
didn't help
I might have tried some other things/methods too, this is just what I could remember right now.
Again, I'd very much appreciate if someone could help me revive this phone. I enjoyed using it while it was working well and I'd like to get it back to that state. Any help is very much appreciated.
Cheers!
I'm having exactly the same issues on my wife's moto x. The only thing I've been able to do for a temporary fix is to enter stock recovery and clear cache. Is there really no root/custom rom method for this device?
When I rooted my Droid Turbo the wifi stopped working.
I try to turn the WiFi on and it immediately goes back off.
How do I get it running again?
XT1254
It is running version 5.1 with 23.21.44.quark_verizon.verizon.en.US vzw
Build number SU4TL-44
I have flashed the 44 again with no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Try re-flashing the radio for .44.
You can even try flashing the .49 radio.
There's both ADB and TWRP-flashable versions here:
[Droid Turbo XT1254] Bootloader & Radio Packages (+Unlocked warning removal)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/droid-turbo-xt1254-bootloader-radio-t3259327
Still no worky
Thanks,
I re-flashed and still no worky.
Any other suggestions?

Maybe flash the full .49 (Lollipop) firmware, maybe flash the 6.0.1 OTA update? Since your bootloader is unlocked you are safe. We have those here available in this forum. Here's the 6.0.1 OTA update:
[OTA] Official Marshmallow build MCG24.251-5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/dro...ota-official-marshmallow-build-mcg24-t3512813
(Do NOT attempt to install that if you have an encryption turned on.)
If those don't work, then it's something hardware related, I would presume. Just unlocking bootloader and "rooting" shouldn't affect anyone's wi-fi capability.
________
Is there SOMETHING ELSE you have installed that might affect Wi-Fi? Some battery save app would turn off and turn on Wi-Fi at different times? Something xPosed module like Smart Network? Some app or setting that is supposed to recognize a GPS location and do a certain action, like connect/disconnect Bluetooth? (But such apps can also control Wi-Fi.) One such app is Tasker, but there are plenty of others. Some people even have a couple of apps like that doing similar tasks and it's easy to have conflicts or just simple human error.
One time I configured my wife's volume control app to turn to "normal" volume at 8am and go silent at 8:30pm. Unfortunately, I accidentally chose 8:30am. (I swear I didn't, but there it was.) For two days, she had totally silent phone except for 30 minutes! And I'm the tech guy in the family.
Hi all
I have re-posted this to the G7 plus forum, I mistakenly posted it in the G7 forum previously.
I have a Motorola G7 Plus XT1965-3 RETGB, after being pestererd by the update to android 10 mesage for several weeks, I finally agreed, since then, the phone fails to work with my in car head unit bluetooth connection.
It pairs, and will stream music from the phone through bluetooth to the head unit, just will not work as a hands free phone.
The head unint is a Kenwood DNX4230DAB, it shows the device connected as A2DP, but the phone (HFP) just shows connecting forever, before the update to Android 10, it worked flawlessly.
I've tried doing a full device reset, didn't help, and following various things posted on forums on the web, again no luck, the phone is unrooted, and the bootloader is locked, it is essentially as was when purchased other than the Android 10 OTA update.
Can anyone tell me is it poossible to roll back the Andoroid 10 update, I should never have done it in fairness, i've been bitten many times before with updates breaking stuff.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how to get the handsfree calling working again, or can offer a easy to follow guide on how to roll back to Android 9, I would be super grateful, I need to get the device working as a handsfree phone before I go back to work this week if at all possible.
Hoping someone can help.
I have an similar issue. On LOS17 the phone app works well with bluetooth but all the other voip apps like zoiper, bria or groundwire dont. the audio over bt is one way only
Regarding your issue: I afraid an OTA downgrade is not possible. However with fastboot you should be able to flash every stock you want as long as it is stock
Unfortunately, I tried to flash the stock Android 9 retgb rom, now the phone is a brick!
I wasn't aware that you need to unlock the bootloader before you flash the rom, so now it will no longer start

You only need to unlock the bootloader when you are downgrading or switching to another version, like from retus to retbra, saying this, you phone turns on? does it do anything? maybe you just need to flash the rom again, you can go here: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/lake/ and find the firmware for your phone, you may have to flash it manually, i have tried to flash the firmware for my phone with RSD Lite but it says that its not in bootloader, if you are flashing the same build that you had or a higher build you dont need to have an unlocked bootloader, just check the dates and the build numbers to make sure that its the same you had or a higher one, just search how to manually flash it, if its really bricked, that it will not boot into bootloader, you can use blankflash to save it, just search on the forum
