hi there
i already flashed a few phones over the last years so im not new to flashing but i never made it behind casual using custom roms.
so today i decided to flash my moto g (3g, 2012, single sim, european version) with the resurrection remix rom and gapps. before, i unlocked the bootloader via motorolas homepage (i now have the warning sign when booting up)
i followed the install instruction in resurrection remix thread and wiped my devies, flashed the rom, flashed gapps.
so somehow i ended up with a bootloop (resurrection remix logo) after flashing the zips via CWM and couldnt do anything about it.
i couldnt reboot into CWM recovery so i tried to use trwp falcon recovery and wiped everything.
i tried to install the custom rom again but it wont work. also i downloaded a stock firmware from the developers section but it didnt work either.
fastboot commands work for me, but adb doesnt (device not found) i already reinstalled motorola and adb universal drivers..
so basically im stuck at the bootloader menu. via fastboot boot recovery.img i can boot up to twrp recovery. i can't mount my devices system. i tried to install zips to my sd but it didnt work out (adb sideload doesnt work because device not found). i tried to mfastboot flash the stock in every single step (.xml.zip style) but im stuck at mfastboot flash boot boot.img (bootloader denies permission) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219)
im now searching for a solution for about 6 hours (its 0600 am now) and im really frustrated.
please help me, i was never stuck in such a situation ever before
how can i fix it?
I'm with virtually the same issue.
Difference I can ADB the device. I even sideloaded others ROM but couldn't pass the boot.
Any help would be thanked.
today i managed to flash a brazil stockrom via "how to unbrick..." so i fixed my problem
but then
i tried flashing resurrection remix again (and crdroid)
i keep getting a boot loop
i dont know what im doing wrong

So i decided to install the CM 12 on my MotoG.I downloaded the files and followed the instructions.I wiped cache,dalvik,data and did Format System but the installation failed.So I reboot my phone only to see that it was stuck at a bootloop.I get back to TWRP and I see that there was no OS installed.I decided then to flash 4.4.4 which worked,but after rebooting i was in a bootloop with no OS once again.I installed PhilZ Touch to see what's wrong.It says that I can't mount the system and the sdcard.I've tried Sideloading,adb pushing but everything fails...Is there anything i can do?Help is much appreciated
Have you tried to flash a stock ROM via fastboot commands?
Yes nothing happened..still stuck at bootloop...

which stock rom did you try to flash using fastboot?
if it's the stock 4.4.4 it's probably going to fail, you need certain things to do (you can search around here) if you're using xt1033, you can search for (xt1033 stock) there's a guide that will get you up and going. On my moto g that has flashed stock 5.0.2 and cm12, i found out that i can't use the normal method to flash the stock 4.4.4 rom, rather i was forced to flash the 5.0.2 rom, since the fastboot command fails at almost everything, which would leave the phone unusable
oh yeah, here's the guideRESTORE TO STOCK
Nevermind.I formatted the data and it let me adb push the stock 4.4.4
ROM
Hi all. I own a Moto G xt1032 UK version. (GSM right?)
I was on 4.4.4 Epsilon ROM but I wanted to flash stock 4.4.4, so I used a tutorial I found on youtube that set me up to stock 4.4.2, then I upgraded to 4.4.4 and THEN there was another update to 5.0.1. So as you can guess, I upgraded to lollipop and that was it - bootloop. I have tried flashing other roms through fastboot and nothing worked, I get an error when I flash ''system'' that says ''image is too large'' once all is done, phone restarts and its stuck on bootloop once again. The bootlogo changes when I flash different rom etc. But I don't know what to do, any ideas? :/ I have also tried to flash a custom recovery and sideload the Epsilon ROM but I only get an error in my command line that says no device connected after I hit the command. Any suggestions guys? I appreciate any sort of help, thanks guys.
I'll also add that I think I have the 41.18 bootloader if it helps (it says so in the bootloader settings)
When flashing a ROM in fastboot, are you also flashing the gpt file?
Yeah. I flash everything there's to flash as all tutorials instruct.
To try and get your phone up and running, flash a custom recovery from fastboot. Once the recovery image has been flashed, use the phone's volume buttons to boot into recovery. If you can get into recovery, try and flash a custom ROM.
Ah, I forgot to add. When I attempt to flash anything from my storage it says some sort of error coun't mount /sdcard and others when the recovery opens up. I tried flashing other recoveries, TWRP, CWM both show the exact same errors..Can't mount SDcard etc. :/ That is why I tried the sideload method which didn't work for me either.
You're flashing recovery for the falcon?
Yes..for falcon. I've done it a bunch of times before, however I never had the unable to mount error in the recovery..
I don't have my moto g on me but I found Philz Touch (based on CWM) worked besr for me after i switched back from GPE to CM12. I was getting weird error messages in TWRP.
I rooted my phone by unlocking my bootloader, putting philz touch recovery, and flashing superSU.zip. After using my phone with root for a while, i noticed that some things were really unstable and buggy, such as it wouldn't charge, so i decided that i might as well flash cyanogenmod 12 since i have a recovery. This was my first mistake, as flashing cyanogenmod put my phone into an infinite boot animation screen. I then used adb to sideload the official Motorola 5.1 update. But this also gave me an infinite bootloop. I tried flashing cyanogenmod 12.1, that also didnt work. I tried flashing stock android 5.1, also bootlooping. I did some searching and i found that my bootloader was not recent enough to flash lollipop roms. So i tried again after updating my bootloader, and now its even worse. It doesn't even attempt to start up, it just goes straight into recovery mode as soon as i boot it up. It also has this strange screen flickering/glitching going on, like this. I don't even know where to go from here so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Some extra info:
I did clear all cache before flashing.
Model number is XT1032
Bootloader version is 4118, before it was 4113.
I recommend flashing a stock 4.4.4 ROM to your phone using fastboot commands. Do no flash anything older than 4.4.4.
Flash cm11 first. I had the stuck at bootanimation. On cm 12.1 flashed 11 then wiped and flashed 12.1 and all is Good
Hi.
A friend gave me his Moto G1 2013 to install Linage OS but I'm really having troubles with it, first of all it doesn't allow me to install TWRP, when I type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img it says that it installs but it doesn't, when I try to boot on it it just doesn't boot, the way I had access to TWRP was typing fastboot boot recovery.img...
When I got in I did the first step when you install a new Custom ROM that is wipe system, cache and dalvik cache, then I tried to install the ROM zip file but it gave me "error 7" I looked for solutions and I found one that is modifying updater-script file, I did it but it gave me another error about mount system, I looked for solutions too and I found one that is modifying file system format to anotherone and then bringing it back to the original format but still having the same error.
After that I decided to go back to stock ROM, I have flashed many times the stock ROM with fastboot commands but it just doesn't boot into the OS, when I try to boot the phone it boots into bootloader again... Any solution to this? Is it a hardware problem? Please help me I'm so embarrased with my friend.
Same thing happened to me!

Hi! I tried something similar with a similar result. I first unlocked my Moto G's bootloader. Then installed TWRP using fastboot. After that I tried flashing Resurrection Remix rom which failed. I've been stuck in a kind of bootloop since then. My handset powers up, finds something wrong, tries to go into recovery, fails and does this over and over again.
Since I am able to boot into bootloader mode, I tried to flash the stock rom by following instructions from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47820707#post47820707
I have tried different variations from many different forums (fora?) all with the same result. Still stuck in the bootloop-thingie.
Btw, I also tried the unbricking guide from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-unbrick-moto-g-falcon-t3394788 without any success. My phone shows up as a Motorola ADB device and also as XT1033 in Device Manager when its plugged in.
Anyone know anything to help me out?

Hi, I found the solution time ago, sorry for answering to late, hope I can still be helpful.
Well, what I did is, I booted into TWRP, then I did a total format to the storage, after that I did something kind of crazy, I switched my storage format to anotherone and then I turned it back to how it was before (example: I was on fat32, I switched to exFAT and then I switched again to fat32) after doing that I tried to flash LinageOS and it allowed me, it booted and now my friend has Android Oreo on his Moto G1
Hope it works for you mate, those situations are very frustrating, good luck
Hi,
I have a Moto G 2013 (falcon) and have installed multiple custom ROMs over the years, with the latest one being the Pixel Experience 8.1 ROM. However, I attempted to go back to the original firmware as Pixel Experience wasn't working too well, and it didn't work, and I got a recommendation to install Lineage OS 14.1 on it, at which point when attempting the install the booting up sequence took forever, and so I tried the Resurrection Remix ROM, also no luck. It appears the phone is completely unable to boot - what should I do?
Kind regards,
Marco
A similar problem, I can not install any ROMs and my stock recovery blinking
restore latest stock firware, this fixes most unfixable bootloop issues. remember by restoring stock firmware i mean "fastboot" way, not through custom recovery.

Don't work, I believe I've damaged some partition (like System,Data, ...) and no rom can be installed, bootloader may be corrupted
My XT1033 only turn on fastboot and stock recovery blinking, other recovery like TWRP they work but I can not mount or wipe any partition
I had similar symptoms after accidentally flashing a falcon firmware to my peregrine device. This caused the screen to "fade out" or flicker, but I could get to the bootloader, albeit flickering. Flashing a correct boot.img solved the bad screen issue, at which point I used fastboot boot mode to boot TWRP and flash a more "correct" rom.
I then ran into the forever booting issue. I fixed this by flashing the relevant radio...It frustratingly booted to oobe within seconds!
Hope this helps someone
