I am from Canada and I have the XT1527 Moto E. I got it from Fido but I am not sure which firmware to get. I am trying to update my phone to Android 5.1.

Can anyone confirm that the 5.1 update has broken band 12 LTE on the XT1527 Moto E?
I've read about it here:

When I purchased my phone, back in March 2015, the marketing material listed band 12. Now if you go to the motorola website they have removed band 12, this is such crap.
can anyone help me get back to 5.0.2?

Is your phone carrier branded? If it is, you can't do anything, as the bootloader is impossible to unlock.
The first thing to do would be finding 5.0.2 firmware for your device. This folder has a lot of firmwares, maybe yours is in here. If it is and you're sure it is, you'll need to unlock the bootloader to be able to downgrade, if your phone is carrier branden, I think you can't do this, according to this page. If your phone is a retail one, you'll be able to flash a firmware with band 12, and then re-flash 5.1 firmware with band 12.
I took care of it, my phone is not branded. Motorola support confirmed band 12 was disabled with 5.1. And before anyone asks, no you can't just flash the 5.0.2 radois on 5.1, that doesn't fix the band 12 problem, I tried it.

Yeah I am in the same boat..just bites. Band 12 was the only reason I got this phone.

Awesome. If someone can get the stock modem files this could be a 5.1.1 update (I hope) to NA phones.
Any chance the Canadian ROMs/updates can be applied to US moto E 1527? I know bootloader are locked but we're still talking about a legitimate marshmallow ROM made for the 1527 right ?

The Canadian model has a different region code than the US model (RETCA). In order to flash the Canadian model's ROM, you need to unlock the bootloader, so if it's the AT&T/GoPhone/Cricket model, no. If it's the Moto-direct model or Consumer Cellular model, yes.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Sounds like I'm out of luck. So much for Motorola. It's for the best I suppose, it's not exactly a stable device. Back to apple!
Hey guys,
I just bought this LG G4 off kijiji.ca and it is the LG-H812 model that is locked to Fido - which is suppose to be the same as Rogers.
And for some reason Canada sucks and its always the hardest to get these phones rooted - I went through a lot of rooting in the great white north (HTC One S, HTC One, LG G3).
I have been trying to return to stock by flashing the KDZ file using the LG Flash tool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848) but I always end up with errors with "connection" while in download mode so I am assuming that I have the incorrect KDZ file for this phone.
Here are the Phone Specs:
Software Version: H81220e
Model Number: LG-H812
Build Number: MRA58K
Thanks!!
Any help will be much appreciated !!!
if you haven't got a solution
...write me in PM: I have a downgrade procedure for G4 Rogers.
Why not post the procedure and help the rest of us?
i have unlocked lg G3 At&t. And I'm using it outside the USA (unlocked). I wanna update the software but it keeps saying that latest firmware is already installed. I searched on internet what is the latest version than i know latest version is marshmallow. i'm using 5.0.1 lollipop but i want Marshmallow. Please Help me Thanks in Advance
I have recently bought a LM-V600VM outside of U.S.
I do not own a Verizon SIM card. Any ideas if I can update the system?
Thank you.
I just got mine. It was already on Android 11. I was able to update to update 7 and 8 today. Same model, I updated it using my non Verizon sim in South East Asia.
If won't update it think you can find kdz rom for your model.
