Hello,
I am new to flashing roms, but today I tried flashing cm12(cm-12-20150224-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip) on my moto g XT1032. I installed clockworkmod recovery and made a backup of my stock rom. I then coppied the buckup to my computer and deleted it from my moto g, and that was a huge mistake. I then wipped the data, cache and the dalvik cache and installed the new rom. After 10 minutes it was still showing the cm logo so I waited an other 10 minutes but nothing changed. So I think it is in a boot loop. I can still boot into fastboot and recovery but I cant get my device to show up on my computer in ADB fastboot works fine. I really hope that you can help me.
I fixed it because of this:
I cant place links yet sorry
I updated my Moto G (XT1032) to the new Lollipop (5.0.1, I think). I left the phone plugged in to let it download and install, and when I came back to it after about a half hour, the phone was displaying the screen with 'Google' and an unlocked padlock on it. I left it for another 20 minutes or so, but it stayed on the same screen. I couldn't power it off at all, every time I tried to, the screen would turn off, but then come back on and vibrated once, only to go back to the padlock.
I ended up going through the Flashboot menu and cleared the Cache Partition, but that made no difference. Also tried a factory reset, but that seemed to make no difference. Currently, the phone is still sitting at the padlock screen.
The Flashboot menu says that the phone is unlocked, but I have no memory of doing this. Maybe it's something to do with the update failing?
Just wondering if anyone has some advice on how to proceed with this.

Well, there are two ways to fix this one out:
Requirements:
You need to have a custom recovery (CWM/TWRP) installed
You are going to require Stock firmware zip file for Moto G XT1028, XT1031, XT1032, XT1033 and XT1034 which can be downloaded over here
ADB and Fastboot
Method 1:
Boot your phone into custom recovery mode. Recovery will have adb on by default, so leave recovery as it is.
Connect your phone to your PC and open command prompt and issue the command: cd directory-with-adb.exe-and-fastboot.exe
Now, issue the command: adb devices. If Moto G drivers have installed properly, the phone will show up. If not, get it over here and install it over your device
Now, from recovery wipe /data and media
Open command prompt and execute: adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip It will take some time to install the ROM. If you face a not working SIM or WiFi, extract the downloaded ROM zip file and navigate to extracted firmware folder using cmd and issue:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
Method 2:
Extract the downloaded firmware file to a folder.
Download and extract mfastboot and copy its content to the same folder where the extracted firmware files.
Reboot your Moto G into the Bootloader Mode. To do so, turn off your phone and then press and hold the Volume (-) and Power buttons simultaneously for a few seconds.
Connect your phone to your PC via USB cable.
Now, launch a command window from inside the firmware folder (click shift key, right click and select open command window here option).
In the command window, issue the following commands one by one:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
Note: If firmware includes four ‘system.img_sparsechunk’ or you do not want to erase the userdata, you can modify the command. You have now successfully installed a fresh ROM on your Moto G and the phone the phone should work as usual.

Moto G 2013 Keep reboot to recovery after bricked
HI, I have a Moto G XT1034 on hand with strange issue.
One day the phone was not able to boot up correctly, it stuck on Android screen and keep rebooting.
I managed to root the phone, and install TWRP, and load up 5.1 version ROM.
But every time phone reboot, it will boot to recovery mode, and I have to select reboot to bootloader and in bootloader select BP Tools (or other option) in order to boot up the phone
I made a boot up process video below
What is wrong with my phone? I have try re-flash the ROM, but nothing changes.
I can't post the link, but if you go youtube and search "YzxAe9WpwOw" you can see the boot up video
Go to bootloader, use cmd : mfastboot.exe erase cached
mfastboot.exe erase userdata
instead of flash whole ROM.
Hope it help.
Didn't work, tried it and it just reset my phone. Every time I power cycle the phone, it still boots to recovery mode

Hi, this is my first time making a post, ok here's the thing, a couple of days ago my phone run out of battery, when i come back to charge the phone, this just get stuck in the Motorola logo and don´t turn on, i never make nothing like root or flashing roms, the phone os was all stock Android 5.1; so i look in the internet for possible cause and i find that it was a bootloop, i try to get in to the fastboot flash mode to make a reset with the factory option but just get directly to the motorola logo and dont do nothing, so a try with the recovery option and gets in to the android system recovery <3e> and try the wipe data/factory reset but doesn´t work. I try even via computer using the minimal adb and fastboot to erase the cache and the userdata with the commands and doesn't work, still appearing the motorola logo. so i found that i have to install the original rom again but first ill have to unlock the bootloader for my device, so i did it, i unlock the bootloader and now appear <Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3> and now appear the poster WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED instead of the motorola logo; then i search for the stock rom for my device and i find this one XT1040_PEREGRINE_RETBR_5.1_LPB23.13-8_cid12_CFC.xml.zip (i know that my device is peregrine because i remember saw it before in the settings but not remeber the hole name), so i make the installation with adb tools like the post say and make this commands:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

If your goal is to re-lock the bootloader: try the command: fastboot oem lock
However, I don't see that solving your problem and may compromise your ability to restore to stock. Instead check this link and follow the install directions EXACTLY:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/rom-stock-motorola-4g-lollipop-rom-t3142816
eg. for Canada choose: XT1040 (Note: for Rogers/Fido - confirmed)
Retail Canada 5.1 ROM (Untouched) (531mb) [Download]
i.e., you want the untouched version for your specific region.
Good luck. S
Hi guys,
Im from the UK and I have a Moto G XT1032 device which was running Cyanogenmod 12 up until yesterday when I decided to re-install the stock rom. Unfortunately, I have well and truly botched it. The current situation is that I have TWRP set up as the recovery image, so I can get into 'AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)' OR into TWRP.
I accidentally wiped the 'system' via TWRP which seems to have caused most of my problems. I have tried to install the stock rom using a flashable zip (which failed) and I have also tried around 10 times to install the stock rom using the fastboot commands:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
#fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
When I try to do a basic wipe using TWRP, this is what shows up: hxxps://s27.postimg.org/r1dax21mb/falcon.jpg (change xx for tt, I don't yet have 10 posts so I cannot post links)
I just cannot seem to get the stock rom installed and booting no matter what I try. Can someone please work with me to get this sorted?
I would very, very much appreciate the help.
Thank you
Ok so i've managed to fix the 'unable to mount storage' issue via TWRP. I changed 'data' to EXT4 and I don't get any errors now.
But the problem is, for whatever reason, I am just unable to install a stock rom. I've used tutorials and still cannot seem to get a stock rom to load/work.
I used fastboot to install the rom files is this zip: XT1032_FALCON_TESCOGBSL_5.1_LPBS23.13-56-2_cid7_CFC.xml.zip
When I do a normal boot it gets stuck on 'Warning bootloader unlocked'
When I go to 'recovery', it boots up to a dead android which says 'no command'
When I go to factory restore, it gets stuck on the 'Warning bootloader unlocked' screen
What am I doing wrong?
edit: I even tried sideloading cyanogenmod and it said it was successful, but then it boots up to TWRP. Totally confused! In desperate need of help.
EDIT: I have now made progress. Here are my basic instructions:
put all the files from the zip file in a folder
put mfastboot.exe files into the same folder
install TWRP, erase
run bat file (add/remove sparse depending on files)
reboot and wait. Should work
I have managed to install the OS but wifi isn't working. And i'm now learning about a file called persist that I need to look into regarding wifi.
Hello everyone, i have big problem with my new motorola x force, i bought it with dead software. And i tried install new, (I'm doing it isnt first time). I get key for unlock from motorola service but is imposible. I get an error. This device can not be unlocked.
I guess first owner, forgot turn on develop mode.
Any idea? I'm tried flashing it with instructions from other thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515.
I download soft from motorola, I'm tried first ver. android and new one. Everything without result.

You do not need to unlock the bootloader to flash original moto firmware
Just put it in bootloader mode and on your pc where you have fastboot and all the firmware files open a command/terminal prompt and type the following
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img (not all devices have this)
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk0 (flash all sparsechunks in number order - for example)
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk4
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot

Some phones may not have sparsechunks 0 & 4 - as long as you flash all the ones in the firmware in number order
I don't have your phone so I couldn't tell you what firmware to use
I have Motorola g5 so I can just tell you the process
And looking on that firmware thread it says you need to use mfastboot for system images - so see that thread for details
Long as everything is flashed successfully in the order I have written above including erasing user data
Sooo.... Could you tell me which comand i have to use ?
Related to no sim card issue?
I'm wondering if this is related to a problem I am having with mine phone. I flashed the official firmware (6.0) on my moto x force and everything works but the simcard. It says it's not loaded so I have no phone or cell data. My sim card works in other moto phones so its not that.
NOTE: I am not responsible for anything that might happen to your device while doing this. (it most likely is not).
EDIT: RE-DOWNGRADING TO 7.1.1 IS POSSIBLE WITH THIS!
I noticed there was no clear tutorial on how to do this yet so I have decided to make a guide explaining how to install the Oreo update on the Moto Z. This should work on most unlocked models (excluding Verizon). I have tried this on my Moto Z RETUS and it is working fine. I believe you should also need an unlocked bootloader, I haven't tested it on a device with a locked bootloader. Please download all the files from the bottom of the post.
Run the following commands with fastboot to install this version of 7.1.1 (download below) (hold power + volume down to get into bootloader mode):
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.11
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.12
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.13
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.14
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.15
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.16
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.17
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot reboot
Once the device reboots into 7.1.1, turn the device off, and hold power + volume down to get into the bootloader again, and keep pressing the volume up key until you can select recovery. Press the power button to boot into recovery and once in recovery, keep pressing power and volume up buttons (do not hold them) to access all the options. Once the options appear, use the volume down key to scroll down to "apply update from ADB".
Now, open a new command prompt window, and rename the "Blur_Version.27.11.58.griffin.retail.en.US.zip" file to "ota.zip". Run "adb sideload ota.zip", and it should sideload the oreo update.
Note: If you have any issues sideloading the OTA (example issue: * cannot read 'ota.zip' *) then download this and move the adb.exe and dlls to the same folder as the ota zip. This version of ADB should be able to sideload the zip without the "cannot read ota.zip" issue. In terminal, make sure to run "adb.exe sideload ota.zip" instead of just "adb".
Finally, use the volume keys to scroll down to "Wipe cache" and press the power button. Then scroll up to reboot and hit the power button again and you should be good!

Because the firmware is for the unlocked Moro Z not the Verizon Moto Z and the Verizon Moto Z has a locked boot loader.
If applied on 7.1.1 Moto Z (RETEU), with TWRP, custom kernel and Magisk, but otherwise stock, will this method erase or preserve user data/apps/settings?
Is there a way to upgrade rooted stock 7.1.1 to Oreo without loosing data?

So there's no way to unlock they phone's bootloader if it's Verizon version?
I didn't know that. My only option is to wait ?
Hey, @ethanscooter I have a question regarding applying update from adb part. I'm on stock reteu ROM/recovery. And when I boot into recovry two things happens
- adb doesn't see device (nor lsusb)
- I have no options like -- select apply update from adb, actually nothing except of droid on the screen.
Any suggestions?
Try holding the power button, then shortly pressing volume up and then releasing both buttons.
I am trying to install an update, but I think it is stuck. On windows command prompt window there is:

WHOA! Thank you very much! It worked.
You're welcome
Let us know if the update was succesful.
Went smoothly. Anyone else having issues with Approach and Moto Display not working?,
I installed over my locked bootloader and it went well btw
I did a factory reset and everything is fine now.
I have a suspicion that Oreo + MotoApproach/MotoDisplay + Immersion Mode is broken.

Actually it was. Additionally I've done wipe for cache just to be sure. All other thing migrated successfully. ROM that I've used was not from post. It came from Efran's OTA Tool.
Is your phone reteu? What parameters did you use in the OTA tool?
Please help!

I upgrade my RETEU Moto Z following a German Guide, roughly the same as this guide, not first installing 7.1.1. (was already on that). I installed the RETUS version, but the Moto Z still says RETEU, so the update seems to be softwarechannel independent.
Works flawlessly!
