** SOLVED ***
Ok so i have a UK Moto G with Kitkat US Rooted and with CWM
I wanted to return to stock Tesco UK 4.3, so i followed this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
I deleted the two lines
CALL :fastboot_flash partition gpt.bin
IF %errorlevel% NEQ 0 EXIT /b 1
from the flashall.bat because i seen posts about that it was required to flash correctly.
i flashed everything then rebooted, and the phone said, android is upgrading apps.
then it went into the homescreen and the screen started flashing weird so i turned it off
Then i went into android recovery and selected factory reset
now however whenever i try to boot into recovery from the bootloader or just boot normally, i get to the blue M logo , where it is meant to ripple but it only does for a few seconds then stops, then the screen flickers every few seconds.
Please can someone help try get back to a working phone ? :crying:
ok so it turns out i wasn't actually choosing the Factory Reset option in the recovery mode.
What i did this time was highlight the option above the Factory reset, then i was giving a confirmation about factory resetting.
I did that, then i also wiped the cache partition too.
then the phone rebooted and now back on 4.3 tesco UK
Yeah the stock roms don't wipe data & cache by default so you can end up with bootloops if you are switching between roms. run flashall.bat /? to see the switches for wiping during flashing.

Good evening. The roblem with m phone started as follows. After a phone call, the phone stuck and turned in black screen. After this, to restart the device took off the battery and started till the logo of HUAWEI. Also refer to that from the first time I had rooted the device, had unlock the bootloader and had passed the CMWwith instructions from www.huaweig300.com, successfully. One week earlier than the problem I had take a backup through CMW. At this time I have access to pink screen and CMW. I tried to setup ICS (UPDATE.APP) from the site of the companybut always crashes at this point and never finishes (pic 1). When I try to restore via CMW keep getting error in partition. I cann not do wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache. These are the errors that show at CMW (pic 2).
Can somone help me please?
ps: can i use my guarantee after all this?
Hi
i have flashed the newst firmware (N8000XXCMG2_N8000RBTCMG2_DBT) on my N8000 via odin and checked the option Nand Erase All (i don't know why ). after the flashing and reboot, the tablet works fine but i've noticed:
i get in the download mode without the confirmation screen
directly after the power on the screen shows for few seconds sometimes PHOTO1 and sometimes PHOTO2, then the boot animation and works after that normally
i've tried everything: factory reset, reflash, other firmware, downgrade to ICS and upgrade to JB, flash with PIT file, flash CWM recovery, flash stock recovery
i just can't get rid of the issues
You wont fix it Nand Erase All usually kills the item as it wipes the part that is never wiped .
Note requires a service centre who may need to send to the factory and its a paid for repair .
I use stock version of latest android , not rooted , no recovery installed , basically its not modified in any way.
After updating a few of my app's , i restarted my phone and since then its been stuck on those four circles .
I went into recovery mode and restarted my bootloader , that didn't work.

So no backup of your data?
First off, reboot into your bootloader then select Recovery. Use the Wipe cache partition option and try again.
If it doesn't solve your issue you will probably have to factory reset (loosing your /sdcard (data/media/0) content).
Yeah as mentioned, wipe cache is about your only option. Nothing you can do to get your data back otherwise.
Moving forward, I have suggestions on how you can back up your data, if you go to the all guides thread in my signature and look for my data thread.
btw, all loops are infinite
Let me start form the beginning.:-
My bootloader was locked and I was on stock 4.4.4 . I faced no problems at that time. I saw OTA notification for lollipop 5.0.2 update, downloaded it, installed it, device gets restarted, I saw new bootlogo and then bootanimation. Just after the bootanimation, the screen goes blank(back-light is still on). I waited for about 40-50 minutes, but the screen is still blank with backlight on. Tried rebooting 3-4 times but stuck after bootanimation. 1 time it booted successfully and I was presented with the lockscreen. I swiped unlock the screen but suddenly services was stopping one by one and various applications also getting force closes, even the launcher also got force closed. So I rebooted again, and again got stuck after bootanimation, getting only a blank screen with backlight on.
Now I booted my phone into recovery, factory reset it(also wiped cache manually) and then booted into system, still no good. I was getting the same blank screen after bootanimation. I tried rebooting 4-5 times and at one time, it got past the bootanimation. There I saw that the device didn't get factory reset(wallpaper, home screen icons were at that place only where it was before). Now again service got stopped and apps got force closed.
Now, I downloaded stock firmware images from here on xda and flashed it from bootloader. I was still getting blank sceen after bootanimation and occasionally it got booted and everything force closes again.
After trying everything, I unlocked my bootloader and tried flashing a custom recovery (so that i can try installing custom roms). But after successfully flashing custom recovery, I booted into recovery and find that it didn't got flashed (I was still on stock recovery). I tried flashing different custom recoveries 7-8 times, but the stock recovery persists!.
So, now the bootloader is unlocked, stock recovery is persisting after flashing any custom recovery, even the user data is persisting after factory reset, and I am unable to boot to system properly. I don't know what to do after this. Please let me know if this all means that some part of the hardware is failing in my moto g or if it can ever be come back to life.
Edit:- I have just booted into twrp Recovery(not flashed, only booted) and found that I am unable to wipe internal storage. Everything else like, dalvik cache, data, cache and system do not give error on wiping. Also, I am unable to delete any file or folder using twrp file manager
Thank you.
Hello people, the problem begin when my phone battery died, i didn't have a charger on me so it stayed off for almost two days, but when i charged it up, i wasn't able to boot it up, it got stuck on bootloader is unlocked screen. (i had bootloader unlocked for quite a time when i rooted my device)
so i went into bootloader and then to recovery (which is twrp 3.0.2) i tried to wipe cache etc and reboot again but nothing happened.
then i tried to do factory reset from recovery but found out it actually did nothing . it showed success sign but if i go into backup option of twrp i can still see same space taken by data / system / cache etc.
i tried everything to wipe data as when flashing any rom it gives error of "incompatiable data, please do a factory reset or change package" but no luck
However i didn't format data in internal storage from my pc (although i tried adb) as it get's recognized as usb device
I also tried to do factory from bootloader but it gets me stuck on bootloader screen again.
I used adb to install my stock firmware found @ here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...t1039-moto-g-4g-stock-firmware-kxb21-t2805619
I followed all the steps and it actually showed success/OK after everystep except first two , but neither stock recovery is back nor my phone boots up and even after wiping data from adb, all the data is still there.
Please help!
my device : motorola moto g 4g x1039 peregrine tesco cid 07
