FileFactory or Motorola Firmwares, after extract it, copy files on windows folder ( it contain minimal adb) paste them into nto the same folder as the stock firmware files (the same folder as the .bin and .img files).

Nice find Would you be willing to make a nandroid backup and upload the system and boot parts? If so I can make a rom to simplify the process. Thanks

sorry i can not upload the nandroid backup the system and boot part, because the connection is poor in my country, it takes 4 - 6 hours for 500-600 mb

Does any body know how to downgrade bootloader 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 or how to get SPC/MSL on 4.4.4 Verizon ROM.

 

[hitesh123]

Will be trying this soon,
If you have locked bootloader then going back to 4.4.2 from 4.4.4 is not easy,
This thread is only for unlocked bootloaders only. And Verizon moto g is not unlockable

I nave boost moto g with unlocked bootloader and flashed verizon firmware on it. bootloader is unlocked, but i cant downgrade boost fw to 4.4.2 to get msl.

 

[hitesh123]

Try factory full flash 4.4.2 from boost
I am not too sure, you may soft brick your phone while doing this.
After soft brick, just flash 4.4.4 Verizon again and you device will be back to life.

Why not take me signal with Boost Mobile? I have to do?

How do we know ? You tell us what did u do ??

 

[Ramiroflorezg]

How do we know ? You tell us what did u do ??

normally installed as installed but I get to log into verizon boost mobile and I am, what I do?

 

[anmire]

normally installed as installed but I get to log into verizon boost mobile and I am, what I do?

So you installed it the way you normally do, but then it asks you to log into verizon but you are boost mobile?

 

[donp445]

Im trying to go back to boost from verizon only thing is when im flashing back to boost 4.4.2
target max-sparse-size: 256MB
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.031s]

writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.374s
target max-sparse-size: 256MB
sending 'motoboot' (1940 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.109s]
writing 'motoboot'...
(bootloader) Motoboot: Preflash validation for tz
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.406s


this happens everything else flashes to the device then all it does is load up with a black screen saying starting services then boot loops when i flash back to verizon i can use the phone for about three mins then reboot

 

[Ramiroflorezg]

So you installed it the way you normally do, but then it asks you to log into verizon but you are boost mobile?

Yes, I do to re-boost 4.3?

 

[Ramiroflorezg]

Lol, I warned people not to mess with this now look what happened... :/

No solution?

you can not downgrade your moto g from 4.4.4 to any other older firmware. you are going to have to wait for the boost mobile 4.4.4 update to be released.

Is that just since 4.4.4 bcoz while on 4.4.2 I used the boost mobile return to stock thread and it took me back to 4.3 and had to read update to 4.4 so I am not sure yet you could not downgrade firmware also try to double flash all the boot.img or just the boot.img I forgot to fast boot the boot.img one time and it just looped so Manet that will work

I used http://androidforums.com/cdma-moto-...8-boostmobile-only-guide-returning-stock.html to return to an older firmware on a couple occasions.

EDIT: If you have tested the new official 4.4.4 do not try this method of restoring. Since the bootloader has been updated there doesn't seem to be a way to downgrade it to install another rom.

 

[thermalpaste]

were u able to downgrade the 4.4.4 bootloader/motoboot.
