Hi there. A question though
Can we flash marshmallow xt 1254 (Verizon droid turbo) TWRP backup on xt1225 ( indian Moto maxx)
And will the radios etc work?
thanks in advance
- XT1250/XT1254 both have the same FCC ID, so you can crossflash that firmware and radios and everything works.
- XT1225 Moto Maxx and XT1225 Moto Turbo have the same FCC ID, so you can crossflash that firmware and radios. (Over two years ago I flashed India 5.02. over my Puerto Rico and Mexico XT1225 phones to upgrade from 4.4.4 Kitkat as India got that first.)
But you cannot crossflash XT1254/XT1250 firmware over XT1225 and vice versa. At least not pure stock. @iiWoodstocK created a custom ROM using Brazil Motorola Marshmallow 6.0.1 firmware that could be flashed to XT1254/XT1250 -- but he replaced stock Motorola kernel with @bhb27 custom kernel and he added CDMA lines to the build prop. But even then you couldn't flash XT1225 radio to XT1254/XT1250, instead you had to use the radio meant for your FCC ID.
I'm curious WHY do you want to do this? All the custom ROMs will work on all Quarks. The XT1225 has more LTE bands and more HSPA bands than the XT1254/XT1250, so why do you want the "inferior" XT1254 radio on your XT1225?
The only reason you would want XT1254 radio is if you need CDMA bands for some reason or use Verizon (U.S. carrier) and need LTE band 13. Since I assume you live outside the U.S., not many people outside U.S. use CDMA and you wouldn't be using Verizon... Is there something in particular you think the XT1254 has you want on the XT1225. If you are by any chance referring to Verizon VoLTE, that only works on Verizon on the XT1254, not on any other carrier.
Here's information about the Quark radios:
The XT1225 and XT1254/XT1250 all share LTE bands 2, 3, 4, 7.
The XT1225 additionally has LTE band 5 and 17.

The XT1254/XT1250 instead has LTE band 13 (Verizon LTE band), plus CDMA bands. While it does have some HSPA bands, there's not as many as in the XT1225.
