Root How to reinstall Google download manager on rooted MOTO G X1032?

I'm on Android 5.0.2, rooted through Clockworkmod. I have Titanium Backup synced to my Dropbox and a Nandroid image.

I deleted the default download manager (stupidly on my Titanium Backup as well) to free up space, necessary despite having 100's of megs to spare - i think [URL='http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/google-android/how-fix-androids-insufficient-storage-available-error-message-3623467/']this[/url] will fix that.

I've done a factory reset, but no luck. All my apps are wiped, including Titanium Backup and Nandroid (which i don't know how to restore to anyway).

Download Manager isn't visible in this [URL='http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/']bundle[/url] of google APK's. Is it packaged with something else?

Will i be able to run the APK when i do find it?
 
You state that you have a Nandroid, did you make this backup in ClockworkMod? If so restore it and as long as the backup was made prior to the issue then it should be fine. If i'm misunderstanding let me know.
 
How do i restore it? I've gone into fastboot mode before and selected recovery, but i just get a android on it's back and "no command".

I think i may have more luck downloading a google download manager APK via USB, but my Windows 10 PC doesn't recognize my phone, even with the Motorola Drivers installed. It did recognize it when i rooted it, but not since.
 
I now have a working MPT cable. I can send Windows files to X1032, which marks them as miscellaneous, but if i move them into the downloads folder it says "Waiting- X1032 is busy", and if i cancel it deletes the file. That's while the phone is on in normal mode.

I doubt i can run any APK's i send without download manager. I'll try a fresh ROM on the phone.

You need to put your phone into the bootloader (from power off, hold both power and vol down together for 10 seconds or so, and then let them go at the same time). Once it bootloader use fastboot to flash the recovery. Once flashed OK, use the down volume to move the highlight to recovery and the up volume to select recovery (don't push the power button). This will not you into recovery. It should be the recovery you just flashed. Once in recovery select the reboot option and reboot recovery. That will reboot your recovery. From there you can resort the backup.
 
I've already flashed a Cyanogenmod ROM recovery image, and it didn't give me the download manager. Is your recommendation different to that?
