did "clear cache" from recovery menu helped?
can you use fastboot with it?
if yes then the idea is to boot it from usb to adb shell and than copy all data to sdcard.
basically same idea as boot broken PC from recovery CD.

did you hold volume button to enter fastboot?
it is not the same as recovery - sometimes it is vol-down when recovery is vol-up.
if you enter fastboot properly for you it will looks like if phone is stuck at logo.

Serious issue need help urgently!!

I am using micromax A90s. I was using custom rom feather that is 4.2.2. two days ago my mobile started showing google services stop working and all messages and it was hanging alot. So I decided to reset my mobile to its factory settings. I boot into to recovery and reset my phone, but when It boot up nothing was changed. it didn't reset. then I used SPF tool and tried installing different ROM. It shows ok that ROM as installed successfully but when I boot still nothing was changed. I tried formatting and deleted my phone storage partition using mini tool partition wizard but all files the come back automatically. Now I don't know what to do. any suggestion and help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Okay, if you have access to bootloader fastboot mode,
Then unlock the bootloader by:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Then, flash any custom recovery by:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery pathname\recovery.img
From there, perform a complete wipe, and install a new ROM zip file (like CM11)

I mean, don't go into recovery.
Hold the button combination which shows a boot menu (including recovery)
There, you'll have an option called 'fastboot'.
Use that.

I tried booting into fastboot mode using pc, I used command "adb reboot bootloader" but when I use this command it normally reboots my mobile and nothing happen.

Yes, vol+ power. There you will have a 'fastboot' option.
That command will work only when your phone is switched ON properly

Then, first flash a custom recovery using Mobile Uncle Tools from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971058
Then install this from the recovery: http://www.devfiles.co/download/nzmXh3xF/gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip

[Q] Unable to install twrp

I'm trying to install a TWRP via ADB and it shows it was successful but when I enter recovery it goes to stock recovery, maybe I'm doing something wrong but I checked several videos and TUT's and i can't find a solution.
The phone is xt1032 gpe with unlocked bootloader ont 5.1 Lollipop, it's not rooted.
I think the problem is that after I send the commands "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" and "fastboot reboot" I cant enter the to recovery to make the new recovery end the installation.
When i send the reboot command the phone doesn't reboot it just shows the battery charging symbol and when i touch de power button the phone boots up immediately i tried several combinations off keys and I still can't do it.
I really appreciate some help,
Thanks

What? my phone is Moto G XT1032 and I'm looking for a solution not an upgrade
Your fastboot command is wrong.
Rename twrp as recovery.img(.img is the extension) copy it to adb folder and type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without quotes.

Moto G Freezes on startup logo and recovery logo screen

Hi guys,
I have a rooted Device with CM and TWRP installed, but someting happenend using the device and my Moto G got stuck on startup logo and Recovery TWRP logo, with adb I have acess to adb shell but everything else like adb reboot bootloader etc doesn't seems to work, with adb shell I have realized that the TWRP wasn't running 'cause when I use the interface on shell I get this message
$twrp wipe cache
"TWRP does not appear to be running. Waiting for TWRP to start"
Is there any way to install a new recovery via adb shell or reinstall a new rom, factory reset or something like that to make my cellphone work again?
Thanks,
If you are okay to wipe internal storage, the following fastboot command will probably make TWRP load again:
fastboot erase userdata​
fastboot flash recovery newrecovery.img - is a way to reflash recovery, however the above command may still be required.
The problem is that with fastboot the device is not recognized, only when I open the recovery mode...
The logo freezes but the device is reconigzed with adb devices...

What OS are you using? Maybe try the ADB commands:
adb shell
wipe data​

It's the latest CM
I'll try, but the last time I got this message.
"TWRP does not appear to be running. Waiting for TWRP to start . . .
Press CTRL + C to quit."
EDIT
using
adb shell
twrp wipe data
happened the same above

I meant what OS on PC are you using. Stop adding the phrase 'twrp' - type the command as I wrote it.

Sorry, I'm using Windows 10, if I use only wipe data, the command wipe is not reconigzed.

There are many threads on Win10 and usb driver issues. If you don't want to try to fix fastboot on Windows, you could boot into a Ubuntu Linux LiveCD and install fastboot there.

Yes, I thought about that too =x
SOLVED
Guys the problem was that I've not installed the drivers before, after doing this, I just installed the stock rom from motorola.
Thanks

Install the Minimal Fastboot & ADB package and the Motorola USB drivers, use the mfastboot package and install the stock ROM as per the instructions provided, but ignore the disassembly part, unless you have your phone does not respond to keypresses.
