NOTE:- This is just a "basic" review of Android Marshmallow ROM. 

I used cm 13 on Moto E - condor 2014 for review.

The CM 13 ROM is Unofficial and is in testing mode. 

This is really a great news that Moto E users will be enjoying Marshmallow Android 6.0, through CaynogenMod 13 [Not sure if we will get Stock 6.0]. 
The build is currently unofficial and is under testing mode. [very unstable].

Developer @ashwin007 from XDA is working on this build. We hope to see a stable ROM soon.

Since people are afraid or are waiting for stable build to come, they are not flashing the build. So i thought to give you all a glimpse of what CM 13 is like ;)

NOTE :- This Method will work in most cases, but make sure you take responsibility of whatever happens with your phone :) [Although nothing will happen :-P]

Now many of us use Android phones, the system we use is called as STOCK ROM, since it is given to us by the manufacturer.

Sometimes to enable additional functions or have different looks, themes or performance we might think of a different OS [ROM]. Custom ROM's are made with this in mind, usually they save a lot of your Internal space by removing all the unwanted apps, secondly there are  performance improvements, many different functions etc.

Question arises how to get the custom ROM and How to Identify If it is good ?

To install Android L on your Moto E click here.

Only Custom ROM's have functions ? No......

• Custom ROM's come with many beautiful functions and User Interface which is impressive, but few people want stock ROM [because it is usually stable].
• What if Someone want stock ROM & functions, User Interface, modifications from custom ROM ?
• Solution to this is Xposed Framework & yes it's available for lollipop too !!

This Post is for Enabling a hidden function in Moto E android lollipop.

To flash lollipop click here.

To Root Moto E having lollipop click here.

So Multi-user setting is there in your Phone ? No ?

Despite of having lollipop update, Moto E users were not supported with one function and that was Multi-user.

Multi-user in Android lollipop allows us to create different accounts for different and also provides us with a Guest Account.

Different accounts help us to separate the accounts, data etc.

If you hand over your phone to someone you don't want the person to access you phone's data you can switch to Guest Mode and a different Account will be logged in.

Guest account just has all the functions but the private data cannot be accessed.

All in all Multi-User was a plus point of Android Lollipop.

So why Motorola removed it ? I have No Idea ! :-P

All i know is we can still enable it :-P

• First thing root you phone and download Es file explorer on your phone and enable root mode on to it.
• Now go to device/system/ and you will see a build.prop file and edit it with ES Note Editor.
• Type the following lines in the build.prop [type at last]

fw.max_users=3

fw.show_multiuserui=1

thanks to Albe95.

•  Now click back and save the file. click and hold the file go to properties and then change the permissions to read, Write & Execute. [Do for all the three] & Reboot your phone.
• Congrats You have successfully enabled Multi-user setting.

SECOND METHOD.

• You still need root permissions but this time make sure you have twrp recovery flashed on your phone. click here to download and see how to flash twrp recovery.
• Now download the build.prop from here, overwrite your build.pro file and now set permissions as read, write & execute as above.
• Now if you reboot the phone won't start instead go to recovery mode [Vol down + power] and then click on mount select system.
• Go to Advance menu and click on file manager and go to device/system/ click on build.prop you will see many options.
• select chmod 755 and swipe and reboot and you will be done.

Always take backup of orignal build.prop. 

If you in bootloop or phone not starting go to twrp mount system go to file manager copy paste original build.prop [yes twrp recovery can do this] and then again select the file and chmod 755 and your phone will be back to normal and also will start [if in a bootloop or not starting].

This Tutorial is to Flash Android L 5.0.2 on Moto E.

 For all those users who have rooted there phone or are on 

custom ROM this tutorial is for you.

I am not Responsible for any bricks [which are rarely likely to happen, follow steps properly]

So to begin the things, first make sure you have stock ROM installed, because you cannot flash directly on Custom ROM so for flashing 4.4.4 click here.

[Flash 4.4.4 for lollipop update]

Those on Stock ROM and and want to unlock Bootloader can refer this.

Once you are on Stock ROM [bootloader should be unlocked] follow the following steps :-

• Download the recovery-twrp-2.8.img .
• Download ADB.zip
• Download the Android L 5.0.2 zip from here or here. [Thanks to tech_master].
• Extract ADB.zip into a folder and copy the recovery-twrp.img[v2.8.2] into this folder.
• Now put your phone into fastboot mode and then connect it to the computer and type

fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp-2.8.img

• Now the Stock Recovery will Be replaced by the TWRP recovery.
• Copy the Android L 5.0.2 zip that you downloaded into sd card.
• Now reboot into recovery mode and wipe all the data, dalvik cache by going to Advance options.
• click on install and then go to external SD and flash the Android 5.0.2 ROM and this will take like 10 Mins so be patient.
• Rebooting will also take 10 mins so don't panic when you see Motorola symbol for a long time.
• I am using Lollipop and there are no issues installing this zip.

PLEASE COMMENT IF ANYONE WANTS A FLASH ABLE ZIP TO INSTALL ANDROID LOLLIPOP [FLASH LOLLIPOP WITHOUT FLASHING STOCK ON ANY ROM].

I WILL MAKE A POST IF THERE ARE LOT OF COMMENTS :-)

Note :- The factory Images are only for Nexus Mobiles 

& NOT for any other devices.

Data will be lost once you flash the images, so take backup of contacts, photos & other imp docs.
NO ROOT ACCESS REQUIRED ! YOU CAN FLASH ON ANY NEXUS PHONE !

Why to Go For Factory Images ?

• Since Google has launched the Android L, it is giving OTA Updates [Over The Air Updates] to all the nexus devices.
• But to limitations of servers and to avoid any problems, Google is giving updates to all nexus phones in batches ! [So waiting is the option for all those who wish to leave the page :-P].
• Those who know how to flash & can't wait for OTA Update, Google has released official factory Images for all nexus mobiles like always!
• Flashing a factory Image will give you a clean Installation of the ROM and will avoid any errors that might [sometimes] occur with OTA Update.
• Don't worry this is an official method of installation ! :-)
• Android L is available for :-
• Nexus 4
• Nexus 5
• Nexus 6
• Nexus 7 [WiFi][2013]
• Nexus 7 [Wifi]
• Nexus 9 [WiFi]
• Nexus 10
