[Q] [XT1032] 4.4.4 brick question

cryptoncore said:

Hello everyone I am using an XT1032 which is the Moto G that isn't the google play edition and I was wondering if it was safe to flash to the 4.4.4 custom ROM's such as AOSB?

I've read the guide on how to unbrick and currently I've being trying ROM's and then restoring my ClockWorkMod backup of stock, obviously this stock ROM is 4.4.2 so if I was to upgrade to a 4.4.4 ROM for the XT1032 could I go restore that stock ROM afterwards and get away without bricking? I know there is a fix but I would really like to avoid going through all of that...

Thank you in advance

yes, it is safe

unlock bootloader and convert to gpe 442, receive the ota, having no root and stock gpe 442 recovery just to be super sure

and done

but after having 444, you wont be able to have stock 442 , at least not in an easy way
