Cant boot in recovery - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Maybe someone already asked. But when i flash any recovery it boots only to a screen with the message NO COMMAND. I already tried holding the up button for 15 seconds and press power button but that keeps bringing me to stock recovery. I already have root with superboot method. Can anybody help me?

The instructions on the Motorola site are wrong.
I was trying to get into recovery and their instructions didn't help.
I think what I did to finally get it was this - pressed and held the Vol Up button for about 10 seconds, then tapped the power button.

At what point do you do this? In the fastboot menu or in the "no command" screen? Somewhere else?
I'm also stuck trying to get into recovery. Any recovery, actually. The only one I can flash with fastboot is Motorola's original recovery.img, and I can't even boot into that. CWM et al. refuse to flash.

At the "no command" screen.

I believe it's actually press&hold power up, then press volume up.
Moot point for the OP, but good to know for future problems.
Hey guys when I encountered the problem earlier, I did hold volume and power all I got was a blue screen. How do I exactly go about re flashing recovery

To get to STOCK recovery from fastboot, it's select "boot recovery" then power FIRST, then while HOLDING power, it's volume up. You can't do it the other way.
To flash a new recovery, it's fastboot mode on the phone, then on your computer (hooked to the phone via usb) the command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". (recovery.img is replaced by whatever name your recovery image actually has.)

[Q] [q] problems getting cwm installed??

I've gone through unlocking my xoom wifi only (MZ604). Then when I try installing cwm it says all OK with the flash via fastboot but when I restart and hit vol down after 3 seconds I never gets the option to go into recovery?
Can anyone help pls?
Power & Vol up until you see the M. Release them then 3 or 4 seconds after your release press vol down.

thx for the info. when I do that, I only get options to go into rsd, fastboot or nvd or something? hmmm...
Flash the recovery again. Once you have verification on your device that this has been flashed, reboot your device by holding volume up + power.
Then 3 seconds after you see the Motorola logo, hit volume down. You should now see "Android Recovery" in the top left corner. Hit volume up to boot into recovery.
CHAMPION!!

can't get into recovery

Hi i just flashed my transformer to this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514658
and now i can't go into recovery help please
Vol down plus power button and when you see words at top left corner you must push Vol up within 5 second.
Alternative is use the "Transformer boot into recovery" app from market.
Btw what is it doing when you try to get into recovery?
Are you trying to get into recovery by an app, or using the buttons as baseballfanz described?
If you cannot get into recovery using the buttons you may have to reinstall the "RecoveryInstaller.apk" for CWM to get it working again.
I can boot into Clockwork Recovery using the app but actually what is the exact button combinations to boot in to Clockwork Recovery?
Thanks.

Turn off. Hold VOL DOWN and POWER for about 10-12 seconds until small text appears. Tap the VOL UP within 5 seconds of when it says to press VOL UP to enter RCK.

Manually flashed 6.0 stock images, but only get dead android for recovery

I have searched around but cannot find a solution. I can't seem to get a working recovery after flashing stock images with and without TWRP 2.8.7.1.
I followed these steps to upgrade to Android 6.0 after verifying the md5 checksum of my download:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-hammerhead....img [it looks the same as before, but I did it anyway]
reboot bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead....img
reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
....I have also tried with and without flashing cache
fastboot reboot
...then I go back into the bootloader and try to access recovery, but I only get the dead android with the red triangle.
Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have a suggestion for a fix?
I'm having the same problem with my Nexus 7 (2013).
Hold down the Power button and press Volume Up.

When I see the dead android? When the phone is off? When the phone is booted into the system?
The dead Android means you have stock recovery installed. When you see the dead Android, hold down the power button and push the volume up then release and you will receive the stock recovery menu

Thanks for the description, but it didn't work. If I hold those buttons long enough, it just loops on the "Google" screen, and if I let go, it boots into the system.
After flashing other times, I have been able to either get the recovery menu or enter TWRP when I choose Recovery from the bootloader menu. Not this time though.
Well, I re-extracted the recovery.img file and flashed it - same problem. I decided to try flashing TWRP again. After flashing I rebooted the bootloader (probably not necessary), then chose Recovery and it booted TWRP like I normally expect.
Still not sure what is happening with the stock recovery. For now I don't have to worry - I'm getting my backup.
Sometimes it doesn't work right away, I keep switching between the volume buttons and it eventually pops up. Only need to tap the volume key, no need to hold it when at the dead Android.
Good luck

Getting into stock recovery from the dead android can be very tricky. As stated above, from the dead android screen, you want to hold the Power Button and press Volume Up quickly, then release. It sounds like you are holding the Power Button way too long which is causing it to do a reboot. I had the same issue the first few times.
Below is a video of someone doing it. On the video, he says to press volume up, volume down, and the power button at the same time until the recovery menu works. But, it is just the power button and volume up. The video will just show you how quickly to press the button combination.

I don't recall having any difficulty in the past, but I think I get it now. Thanks for the tips guys.

Auto boot to recovery !!!

I was upgrading my bootloader using one of the threads in XDA, it worked fine for me. Then I tried to upgrade my android but i was having TWRP recovery so it was a problem. I found a stock recovery on XDA and flashed it. After that i went to recovery mode and now, I can't get back. If i press the power button for 10 secs, it shut downs and boot back into recovery mode(No command window). I tried using the method of holding the Volume Up key and pressing the power button, but all it does is shows "qe 1/1" in the bottom left corner.
Please help !!
Thanks !
