[SIZE=+1]Q11: Does rooting/unlocking your phone invalidate its warranty? (In EU)[/SIZE]In short: No. Just the fact that you modified or changed the software of your device, is not a sufficient reason to void your statutory warranty. As long as you have bought the device as a consumer in the European Union.
For Indian customers, The warranty is void if you unlock/root your device. Motorola also reserves the right to maintain the records of unlocked bootloader devices. So you may not even get the warranty by relocking the device
[source]​
[SIZE=+1]Q12: What to do if my battery is fully discharged and not re-charging?[/SIZE][source]​
[SIZE=+1]Q13: Lost IMEI ? : How to backup / restore PDS partition and why?[/SIZE]On Motorola devices the 'pds' partition contains information specific to your machine: IMEI, MAC address, serial number, etc. This partition can be lost by accidental format or over time due to filesystem corruption. If you have made a backup, there is a good chance you can bring your handset back to life.
==> PDS backup will help to restore lost IMEI. It is a situation when the phone reports that the IMEI is unknown. ; This works like a vaccine, apply before having issue with IMEI, after it will be too late !
Instructions:
**Root Required**
Using ADB you can make a copy of the partition and move it to a safe place (Google Drive?):
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/pds of=/sdcard/pds.img​
To restore in the event of corruption or loss:
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/pds.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/pds​(assuming you've pushed pds.img to internal SDcard storage first)
If for some reason this doesn't work, maybe your IMEI isn't destroyed but only not "readable" by system (file system issue? misread cluster reading frame ? no idea), in that case you may read the following story : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52648789
​
[SIZE=+1]Q14: How to disable/enable auto On/Off screen with Flip Shell?[/SIZE]
for stock rom : (disabling, since it's enabled by default)
install Xposed framework (and reboot)
install and enable MotoMagnetOff (and reboot)
Follow this FAQ​
[SIZE=+1]Q15: How to remove the 'unlocked warning' message?[/SIZE]Follow this method and default Motorola logo will be back .​
[SIZE=+1]Q16: How to reboot into 'safe mode'?[/SIZE]

I would like to thank TeamWin for their amazing work!
I saw that the newer Samsung MediaTek phones were not getting any sort of love, so I bought one myself to kick start the development.
TWRP is the obvious choice as it is reliable and trustworthy with frequent updates and patches.
INSTALLATION:
Odin Method (Windows):
Step 0: Unlock Device Bootloader by toggling the OEM Unlock option in Developer Options. Device will reboot to Odin mode and will prompt you to long press volume up, device will then unlock bootloader and perform a complete factory reset so make sure to backup any data.
Step 1: Download the unofficial TWRP image from the link attached below.
