Stucked in bootanimation

Hi, I have the 8gb Moto G Spanish version (don't know any more of it), I unlocked the bootloader yesterday, rooted it, installed CWM and I tried to flash beanstalk but my phone got stuck in the bootanimation (I know it takes time, I left it through all the night and didn't work). After that I tried with other roms (maybe a bad download or incompatible issues or something) but there's no way to make it go past the bootanimation. I tried PA, CM (xt1032) and a couple more but nothing.
I also tried to go back to stock firmware with this guide but couldn't do it either. Can anyone help me?

Exactly the same problem here. Haven't found any help yet

How do I do all that

if your on 4.4.2 all you need is the 4.4.2 firmware or 4.3 firmware, download the zip one, then unzip and double click flashall(windows batch file), it should install the firmware you have, just looked, you need the spanish one or eu, and when i tried to go from 4.4 to 4.3 it came up with an error, in the guide it explains you need to delete a couple lines of code in two files, if you follow the guide you cant go wrong.

Can you link me to the guide please? Would be appreciated

pay attention to post on 3a, if you can only go back to 4.3 you need to do this. also you need adb but dont need to use it, just click on the flashall.bat file, it should then wipe everything and go back to 4.3

Thanks man! I'll try it when I get back home

[Q] Downgrade to 4.3 from 4.4.2 out of box XT1033

Before i begin, i am aware there are mutliple other threads about downgrading from KitKat 4.4.2 to JB 4.3 and also have come across the procedure of downgrading. But my query is still different from other ones.
Here is my query, I own a XT1033 dual sim asia with 4.4.2 OUT OF THE BOX. Now, can i manually flash a 4.3 dual sim asia firmware with this status...?
Reason bcz my factory version is 4.4.2 and i was willing to try 4.3 because 4.4.2 has numerous problems with Signal drops, Huge fluctuation in signal, Auto switching to aeroplane mode and back. I came across users of 4.3 out of box and have heard that 4.3 JB had been great in signal quality. Please assist.

Are you willing to unlock bootloader? or you want to stick with a locked bootloader?

I already have an unlocked bootloader and on CM11 since long time. But signal fluctuation issues seems to be in core of 4.4.2 release. I tried Stock Radios of XT1033 Asia, Brazil and India and also flashed stock rom via fastboot commands but none fixed this bug. I gathered feedback from 4.3 users that signal strength was great and there were no crashes in signal (Suddenly aeroplane mode and back normal during ongoing call or during idle status). So, was planning to give a try for 4.3. But i have 4.4.2 out of the box (factory version)
So i was puzzled whether its possible or not possible to try 4.3 with this status
Are there any side effects of downgrading alike breakage of OTA?
Breakage of Bootloader?
Sorry about the essay
Edit : Signal issues only on WCDMA only mode on KK.

Warranty :The answer lies within your question mate. Before installing CWM you need to unlock Bootloader (Primary step without fail). And unlocking bootloader itself permanently voids your warranty bcz you will be submitting the oem code and requesting motorola for unlock key. Therefore, they void your warranty there and email you the unlock key.
Another case, if your factory version is 4.4.2 and you downgrade to 4.3 may also void your warranty (Not very Sure). Bcz you are flashing a non-factory version.
OTA Update : Yes, OTA will be working as confirmed by @Sk.D downgrading to 4.3. And upon upgrading back to 4.4.2 also OTA works as confirmed by me.
Signal : The signal crash (Auto switch to Aeroplane and back normal) bug is not available in 4.3. But the signal drop upon covering bottom half of your phone in a moderate 3g coverage area is same on 4.3 as well 4.4.2

Easier way would be to Grab the OTA package of 4.4.4 and update it via stock recovery. Provided you need to on 4.4.2 unrooted and unaltered status.
I haven't tried downgrading from 4.4.4 nor have tried flashing 4.4.4 via fastboot yet. Maybe you made some typo in your command lines.

Moto G Won't boot anymore.

Hello Guys,
after a week using Paranoid Android my moto g xt1032 acted weird, so I reinstalled stock using fastboot.
I am pretty familiar with the use of fastboot and flashing and so on (Guess I've flashed, and fixed over 20 different phones)
But now I've come to the point I can't even fix my own phone.
What does it do?
Well, when I start my phone, it will only show the "warning bootloader unlocked" message, and just restarts and does the same.
Sometimes it even gives a blue screen > restarts.
I can boot into fastboot mode, I tried to flash a RETAIL UK 4.4.2 And RETAIL UK 4.3 stock firmware, even though I am from The Netherlands,
but UK or German roms are the closed to mine, and as far as my knowledge goes, EU firmware are usually the same.
I managed to go into stock recovery, but when I flash philz or twrp, it just stays at the "warning bootloader unlocked" screen.

Going to try XT1032_RETAIL-EU_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml.zip right now.

same result.

While my situation below may not be yours, at least this may get you back to a stable and functional device. I hope it helps. And as you are aware this will COMPLETELY wipe your phone. If you can, backup any pictures or files you want to keep before doing this.
My situation was like many others that had flashed a 4.4.4 GPE or custom ROM and ended up with a mini wifi tablet as the radio was off (as stated by dialing 8#8#4626#*#*). I have gone two days with no cell signal due to this. Trying to flash a stock image (http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14) resulted in boot loops. I believe that is what everyone else is calling it. I never saw the loop as it stayed on the initial logo screen before the animation begins. Maybe it is looping fast and just showing the same screen again instead of it simply not changing. Oh well. I'm fixed now but on EU ROM. Now I'm attempting to install Blur_Version.174.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US. The EU ROM currently installed is 176.44.1, and while it works I simply want to be stock US version for now. I mention this because there is also a 174.44.4 US ROM on SBF-DROID-DEV. I tried that one (among many others) when trying to revive my phone. None of the stock images worked and I'm currently not happy with any of the custom ROMs. Stock or rooted stock will be good for me. On a tangent but I have a XT1032 purchased from AIO Wireless (now Criket but still part of ATT). Well AIO tweaked Motorola's ROM to disable tethering. I actually use Red Pocket for service (another ATT MVNO) and only bought from AIO becausse they had a sweet deal. Wasn't so sweet after I found I could not tether and after 6 months found a way to unlock bootloader, which cost another $25. In short it spent just as much money and had much frustration that could have been avoided if I had purchased directly from Motorola and got a FULLY stock and unlockable device.
---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 PM ----------
Pass this along also to anyone looking: theroot.ninja worked for me to unlock the bootloader (I've not posted enough to XDA so posting true URL is disabled. Google "sunshine bootloader unlock"). I found a vague reference on XDA somewhere but don't recall thread. Basically, certain carriers (like ATT and its MVNOs) have agreement with Motorola to restrict bootloader unlocking on devices they resell. Like I said, cost me $25, but it worked and I've wasted more $$ on less.

My bootloader is unlocked, I can't get into recovery, only fastboot.
and it stays at the "warning bootloader unlocked screen" aka logo screen, and it restarts so now and then.
When I start it up for the first time, the screen turns blue right away, and restarts, after a couple of restarts, it stays stuck on the logo screen :S
I tried lots of stock firmware, but none of them worked, I wonder if it's a hardware fault, but I reassembled everything, without success.

Regarding fastboot and the 4.4.4 firmware image - you are obviously not doing all the necessary commands. Please state the commands you have used. Since you have updated your bootloader, ensure you are actually attempting to flash a 4.4.4 image, as a 4.4.2 image will result in an error.

Good luck.

Your issue could be due to older images. Here is the EU Retail 4.4.4 image. It doesn't matter where you are in the world, it will work fine.

Going to try the Blur_Version.174.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US one right now.

-- edit --
no result, also tried to convert it to gpe, no result either.
I guess it's a hardware problem somehow (maybe reading the harddisk fails?)

If you still have the box that the phone came in look at it and it will tell you which Moto G you have.

How to fix XT1032 Boot loop after factory reset

Hi,
after an apparently failed attempt to install the 5.0 OTA update my XT1032 now will boot to a droid lying on its back.
I went to the recovery from there (by pressing VolUp+Power) and did the "factory reset/wipe data" and rebooted.
Same result.
I did "wipe chache". Same result: Droid lying on its back, saying "Kein Befehl" (I guess that means "no command")
I can get into recovery mode (CWM was installed before all this*) so I could try to flash stuff from outside.
But what should I try to flash? I tried flashing a (supposedly) stock system but as soon as I start with "fastboot flash boot boot.img" the phone starts booting again. So I am not really sure what to do now.
Something is seriously wrong with this phone and I would like to restore it to stock settings. I bought it on amazon.DE - so if any one of you guys knows where I could find a truly original stock image for this phone and what to do with it, please let me know.
PS: Right now I can't even get into recovery anymore. The thing just keeps booting and booting. Can't even turn it off.
* meaning: before I flashed the supposed stock recovery that apparently, in combination with the OTA update, got me into this mess

I now followed this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47820707#post47820707
I used option 3b with a 4.4.4 rom ( RETAIL-DE_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF )
I excuted all these commands. However, upon flashing the boot.img the phone immediately boots (and gets stuck).
So I re-entered fastboot again to finish the job. Everything else went fine.
But the problem persists: When booting, the phone now displays the "Warning: Bootloader unlocked" message for a long time, with a kind of water ripple effect from bottom to top, repeating.
When I switch it off, it switches back on automatically, trying to boot and getting stuck at this screen. Sometimes I get to the droid lying on its back with a red !-Triangle on top. Poor little bugger. Soft bricked.
What can I do to fix this?
I can still enter fastboot.
I assume that yet again I grabbed the wrong ROM.
Is this supposed to be dead? http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14

I think you might be on lollipop bootloader as you are having a screen flickering issue & downgrading the boatloader might be dangerous.
I'm don't know whether it will solve your problem but try flashing a lollipop firmware.
I'm not allowed to post links. Google for XT 1032 lollipop firmware. I saw one in groupandroid website.
Download the firmware from the site & execute the given commands.

Thank you. I got that file.
"adb devices" won't find my phone, though.
"Fastboot devices" does. So I can't use "adb push ..." to move the ROM to the phone.
Also, whatever option I chose from the Fastboot Flash Mode, the phone starts to boot. So I can not "enter" Recovery.
Should I just use "fastboot update rom.zip"? I don't wan't to miss my last chance to revive this phone.

ADB commands will not work in with the phone fastboot mode.
Since fastboot commands do work, you can manually flash each partition from the stock ROM. Entering recovery isn't required to do this.

I found a thread in "xda -> moto g general->[FIRMWARE][XT1032-XT1033] Firmware Lollipop Retail Brasil & Asia 5.0.2" by cristiand391. Download the firmware for your device. It will be in BRASIL_XT1032_5.0.2_LXB22.46-28_cid12_CFC.xml.zip. Extract the contents to the fastboot.exe folder where you use regularly. Run the commands in fastbootmode. Please be careful with the commands.

ADB commands will not work in with the phone fastboot mode.
Since fastboot commands do work, you can manually flash each partition from the stock ROM. Entering recovery isn't required to do this.

The problem here is that the phone will boot as soon as I flash the boot.img and the whole thing fails.
Do you see a way out of this situation?
Any way to do this with a .zip ROM?

Have you tried flashing different firmware such as the GPE for your phone?
Does boot.img flash properly? If it does, you could try installing TWRP, boot into TWRP, mount the data partition, and use your computer to copy a custom ROM to the phone fpr flashing.

@Fretchen
That might be because you are on lollipop bootloader & you are trying to flash kitkat bootloader?But I may be wrong. Previously you told that you tried restoring to kitkat & that boot.img is kitkat bootloader. Try with this lollipop firmware.

I now did exactly what legolas06 wrote, using "MoeMoe_BRASIL_XT1032_5.0.2_LXB22.46-28_cid12_CFC.xml"
There were "hab check fails" for recovery and boot but at least the device did not reboot upon flashing the boot.img.
I rebooted it and it is going further than ever before, all the Motorola animations were played but in the end the phone got stuck at the circular blue pool (water) with the bit Motorola 'M' plus the concentric water ripple effect.
I switched it off and on again and then it played through the animations, then updated the apps (total number: 9) and then started the system. Apparently it is working.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate your support.
Allow me thse final questions:
Can I from now on just apply OTA updates?
If not, what can I change to make this possible?
Is it advisable to install a EU Rom soon for whatever reason?

Happy that I could help.
You flashed the stock firmware so everything should work again. OTA updates if available would work.

I don't know if you can apply OTA updates. Before the OTA update will work, you may need to update all Motorol apps via Play store.
You could wait until a fulkl stock lollipop pop is released for your phone and flash it using fastboot.
You can try different ROMs but stick to the ROMs made for your model. I have an xt1032 and I have installed US Retail, stock Telus, and GPE.

worked for me too, thank you soo much. give this solution a try

these steps look soo similar that the ones you can find in other blogs/discussions, but for me, in my case the main difference was the firmware, I tried with a loot of them, but the one that is mentioned in this post, installed smoothly, and with no issues, thank you so much, to post your experience and this solution.

The following instruction will let you restore your device to stock, making it like it is brand new. There is no need to unroot first, because flashing stock firmware will overwrite any modifications.
Step 0. Ensure you have an up to date backup of everything as this process will erase all data.
Step 1. Download the factory firmware images for your exact device model from here. Ensure to download the latest available firmware version to avoid bootloader issues.
Step 2. Make sure you have the Motorola Fastboot utility, which is attached to this thread
Step 3. Make a folder on your desktop, call it whatever you want, and move the mfastboot.exe file from the attached zip into it.
Step 4. Extract the factory firmware files into the same folder
Step 5. Power of the device itself and put it into 'fastboot mode' by holding 'Power' and 'Volume Down' at the same time for a few seconds.
Step 6. Right click in the folder and click 'Open command window here'. Then, run the following commands. Remember, this will erase all data.
Code:
mfastboot.exe oem lock begin
mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot.exe erase cache
mfastboot.exe erase userdata
mfastboot.exe oem lock

Here it is,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-identity-crisis-6-t3324595
Stock Marshmallow for XT1033 ported from Official Marshmallow build from the XT1068. I've been using it for months and I can say that this is light years ahead than CM 13 which I had been using since the release. The performance is good and the battery backup is really nice. After flashing the ROM flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/orig-development/kernel-kaminarikernel-v2-0-t3345716 this Kaminari kernel too. You'll never regret it.

Can you tell me that step by step? Means what to follow in strictly conditions.... It's because of safety purpose to avoid future failures.

Bhatt095 can you WhatsApp on my mobile pls ?? For 6.0 marshmallow installation
WhatsApp no is 8866735950
