I'm having an issue changing the boot animation for my e5 plus
I flashed a new animation and it plays in this order The one i flashed, moto, metro.. Is there anyway to get rid of the moto and metro boot logos so i just see the one i flashed?
Ofcourse 5 minutes after i decide to ask for help I Figure it out.
For anybody who wants to do this as well get a root brower and go to oem/metropcs/media and delete bootanimation.zip in there.

I changed my clogo, it recently reverted back to the Motomaker one?

I changed my clogo from the one I made with MotoMaker when I got my phone. It recently reverted back to the Motomaker one. At the same time, it changed the boot animation from the animated globe, to a winter themed animation. Anyone know how and why this happened?
I don't think the phone has updated via any OTA's, right now it's rooted 4.4 with SlapMyMoto.
Probably has to do with the app that automatically changes the boot animation depending on the date.
Thanks, any ideas which app that is/where those extra (backup) clogo files are kept?

[Q] Moto X Not Booting after trying to root PLEASE HELP

I just got my Moto X 2014 Pure Edition in the mail yesterday and now I've gone and tried to root it.
I had already unlocked the bootloader and then being giddy I installed android 5 since I wanted to try it out. From here, I messed up. I tried to root it using the Superboot method. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this was for the 4.4.4 build.
After flashing the image, I was able to get back into the OS, but I wasn't able to install apps or get to the home screen. I could still browse still open chrome windows, but I couldn't get to home. Next, I tried CF Auto Root, as that was built for 5.0. Executed just fine, but when I got back into the phone, I kept having the same problem. Now when I boot, It gets past the moto animations and then sits on the moto logo that looks like water. It just stays there.
If I try to turn off the phone, it just repeats this. If I put it into fastboot mode, it can act in there just fine. So I tried getting into recovery, but when I got back to the android on it's back saying "NO COMMAND.", I tried holding down up and power, just like everyone says. Doing this, though, reboots the phone normally and it goes back to the same problem as it was before!
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it. I'm having a mild breakdown right now

Easiest thing to do is to go to:
https://accounts.motorola.com/ssoau...edirect/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images
and log in then find the right link for Moto X Pure Edition and click the "Request Firmware" link. When you get the email giving you access to the link then following the instructions for flashing it via fastboot.

Thank you so much for this! I had eventually found a fix through a lot of tinkering, but thank you for replying with the link for the firmware. I was looking everywhere for it!
I had the same issue. I have no idea what I did to cause it. Eventually I found a fix somewhere to fastboot into twrp recovery from the computer, and fix the file system. Then I flashed kitkat and updated from there.

Recovery image or fix?
can you guys post your fixes? I am stuck with the same issue and have been waiting for over an hour for Moto to send me the recovery image. Thanks!
Xtchico..look at solartrans guide to get on lollipop. You basically have to downgrade to 4.4.4...then you'll get the 5.0 ota ..then use the tools to unlock..root and install recovery.
That's what worked for me. I was stuck on the water ripple M .

This is exactly the guide that I used and the fix action which worked for me. Thank you sir for finding it! I'd been trying to find it to give him credit. It works wonders and I haven't had an issue since.
Rooted my phone, loaded my applications and tweaked it to my liking. Now all that's left is to activate it.

[Q] [XT1064] Is it possible to convert XT1064 to GPE (Google Play Edition)?

Hello, can someone help me convert my Moto G 2014 XT1064 (US) to the Google Play Edition?
I bought the Moto G on sale at Amazon a few days ago, then remembered why I had put off purchasing it previously, all of the Motorola bloatware!! No Motorola, I don't need an additional backup service, and I don't want your services constantly running and pinging home, and I'd like to get updates in a reasonable amount of time. My device said it was up to date but was still on KitKat, which was very disappointing.
So far I've unlocked my bootloader (via the official Motorola method) and I did successfully upgrade to Lollipop but it was the Motorola version.
These are the packages that I have downloaded:
Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip (the motorola 5.0 update?)
Blur_Version.22.11.6.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip (small update for motorola android 5)
GPE_XT1032_KOT49H.M004_CFC.xml.zip (stuck at Google screen with unlock icon, waited 30 minutes)
One issue is that it seems like both of the main sites that host the stock images have been down for a few days:
- http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=36 (DOWN as of 12/12)
- http://motofirmware.com/files/category/38-titan/ (DOWN as of 12/12)
I also used the MotoToolAioV3.1 with the GPE_XT1032_KOT49H ROM which resulted in a bootloop, I'm guessing this is for the 1st gen Moto G?
Right now I'm back on Motorola KitKat version 21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.
Is there a way to make my Moto G XT1064 stock GPE or should I look for a custom ROM that or should I try CyanogenMod 11?
One thing to note is that I was running on less that 50% battery when trying to flash GPE_XT1032_KOT49H with MotoToolAIO, could this have been an issue or is this only to prevent the battery from dying?
Thanks for the help guys!
P.S. It was not worth it saving $70 to get the on-sale version at Amazon rather than the Google Play Edition. I've not even been able to find out for sure if you can get the 2014 version with GPE, which makes this even more frustrating.
Also, which versions are compatible with each other or are none of them compatible unless stated? Will the 1st gen ROMs work on the 2nd gen phone?
there is no GPE edition for Moto G 2ND GEN.......... and 1st gen ROMS wont work in our phones.. flashing dem results results in a BOOTLOOP

Thanks, it's really disappointing that I can't have stock Android on a Moto G 2014 and have it somewhat easy to update. When is that going to change Google, come on, it's been the same ROM -> Bootloop -> flash -> brick -> hours of ADB and mfastboot for 5 or 6 years. Having 20 Motorola services phoning home and alerting me to signin to Motorola constantly is inexcusable, and makes this otherwise great phone a LEMON.
Is there a tool or method to strip out all of the Motorola junkware?
eeeee

Edit: I don't understand, we have root, we have an unlocked bootloader, why can't this phone be 100% converted to a GPE phone? What's the technical limitation that's preventing this?

Oh, sweet, thank you so much!
It probably seems like a "duh" but this tip should be a sticky!
I never once have read somewhere that the Moto G 2014 doesn't have a Google Play Edition. Eventually I suspected that it didn't but only after an hour of flashing and bootloops.
So this is not the 2014 version? https://play.google.com/store/devices/details/Moto_G_Google_Play_edition_8GB?id=moto_g_8gb&hl=en Is the model number of the GPE phone I just linked to XT1032?

A varient of XT1032
Man you must be dumb if you think you can flash the moto g 2013 gpe rom to the 2nd generation moto g. It's like me trying to flash a GS5 or Note 4 ROM on my GS4. It will never work and results in a softbrick or worse. Also quit being so dramatic. This motorola rom is as close to stock android as you are gonna get from an OEM. If you want to get rid of the unintrusive motorola services just root and remove the unwanted apps with titanium backup.

It's certainly not obvious at first glance that there is not a GPE version of the 2014 version of the Moto G.
What's the technical reason that I can't flash the rom on a different device? Hardware driver support? Config files?
Is it really that difficult for Android to support having multiple drivers available for different hardware? Windows does it just fine. Linux does it.
I can't seem to root the XT1064, most people seem to end up in bootloops when trying to and so did I, so no Titanium Backup at the moment.
This is as close to stock as many manufacturers offer?? That's very disappointing.

Thanks, I'll try that today.
I tried the xt1064_lollipop_boot.img version yesterday with the 2.16, 2.35, 2.38, 2.39 but I might not have waited long enough on some of them (did wait 15+ minutes with 2.16 with no luck).
What screen was it on while booting? Was it ever a completely black screen (with backlight on) for an extended period of time?
What ROM / OS version were you on when you rooted it?

Are you using the stock Lollipop recovery or TWRP?
How do you get into recovery from Lollipop? I've tried all different combinations of power/volume buttons but cannot get past the Broken Android screen.
By "flash SuperSU" does everyone mean using "adb sideload superSU.zip" from recovery?

The rom seems to replace the flashed Recovery with the stock..... I flash the recovery every time I want..... :-/
Place the SuperSU.zip(v2.38 beta worked for me). In your INTERNAL memory and boot into recovery(TWRP) flash it..

I pushed SuperSU 2.38 to /data/local/tmp/ because that's the only place that I could write to as far as I know.
I booted into recovery and installed SuperSU then rebooted (I didn't clear any cache manually).
The phone is on the Warning Bootloader Ulocked screen and rebooting. I'll let it sit for about 20 minutes and see if anything good happens. Thanks for the assistance.
Edit: is mine on the wrong screen? You said yours stayed on the "bootlogo", is that the Motorola splash screen or the "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" screen?
Edit: IT WORKED! Thank you!!
Edit: Looks like it's bootlooping after reboot.

i have found root for the s8 and s8+

hello i have found root you need to check out root junkys video he will list the stuff you need to dohttps://youtu.be/5-ubrnWdGT4
No you did not find root. These guys did. https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/development/samsung-galaxy-s8-root-snapdragon-t3659305
DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS. You will be stuck on the weird engineered firmware where it only charges up to 80%. Towards the end when you flash the BL File if I can remember you will get stuck in a boot. Luckily I am experienced and managed to recover my verizon s8 to stock with some samsung files I managed to find that were the latest (with odin program given in the other folder). Long story short, don't even bother unless you want to waste like 2 days and stressing out over a bricked s8. Every when I recovered it I had to flash to BL file again since even then it was stuck in a boot mode where verizon logo would only show

How to install a custom boot animation? Moto E5 Play

Hello, this is my first post on xda but I have been using xda (without an account) for around 1-2 years. Also please forgive me if im writing this in the wrong section. Anyways, I was wondering how to install a custom boot animation for my moto e5 play (james). I have tried using the boot animation app by JRummy Apps. (I don't know if you can change the animation through flashing zips or something) It says its installed but when i reboot, it still shows the regular "Hello Moto" one. I've tried many times with different animations but none seem to work. Did I do something wrong or is it impossible for my moto? Also, my bootloader is unlocked, I have TWRP Custom Recovery and I am rooted using Magisk. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!
