moto g soft bricked help - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello everyone i have no idea how this happened but i lost adb debugging and have no rom installed only two things i can use is cwm and the boot loader i know there is a way to flash with fast boot and yes i had adb debugging on before i wiped it so no idea

You need to enter recovery inorder to use adb commands. Sideload the Rom through adb in recovery & flash it via recovery.

Which phone do you have?
I recommend flashing a stock 4.4.4 ROM to at least get your phone up and running.

[Q] Broken boot and recovery image adb and fastboot can not see my device

Hi there,
Long story short, I flashed the latest CWM recovery via the rom manager app, then tried to boot to recovery - but it just went into the bootloader.
Rebooted and tried flashing several recoveries form rom manager to no avail.
did some googling and there was a suggestion to flash the recovery to the boot partition - tried it and now I am stuck. I should have thought before I did this.
No I am stuck with a phone that will not boot into the android OS, I can get into the bootloader and if i select recovery I just get the "google" screen. adb and fastboot do not recoginse the phone when I use the devices command.
do you have any suggestions? I am already in android withdrawal
Hi All,
I am an idiot - I forgot to run fastboot as root (running linux) - I feel like such a noob. At least I had it plugged in
Anyhow Flashed CWM - doing a backup and will be flashing a rom to get back up to speed.
next thing to do is move the fast boot out of ~/bin/ to /usr/bin/ so I can easily run fastboot as root.

[GUIDE FOR NOOB] Install Custom Recovery

As this post is for NOOB Specific, you have to know about what recovery is. Recovery is a piece of software that run aside the Android OS itself and it is called up by the user before booting android to perform some basic functions like Update, Wipe Data etc. However the bundled Stock Recovery is limited in functionality and before flashing Custom ROM, we should install a Custom Recovery. CWM(ClockWorkMod) and TWRP(TeamWinRecoveryProject) are two famous Custom Recovery.So, the main point is, how Custom Recovery can be installed, it can be installed by three different methods, but I will give only two here. But before doing that you have to unlock your bootloader

Fastboot devices

[Completed] Lg Volt Soft Bricked

I have messed up my lg volt it was on the stock rom zv5 and was running fine with root. I decided to flashify a deodexed version of my rom onto my phone, this of course went wrong as all my phone displays is the Lg boot animation with Fastboot in the top right corner i cant enter recovery mode as I have a bad recovery. I can open up the adb sideloader within Android System Recovery but have no idea how to get it to work as my command prompt does not recognize the command. I have tried a factory reset and rebooting. Help please I am getting desperate. FYI I am 14 and my knowledge on flashing is minimal.

Hello, and welcome to XDA! You could try to adb sideload a rom and flash it. Or fastboot flash a working recovery onto your device, and then sideload a rom and flash it. Or you may have to reflash stock firmware onto your device to get it to work. Here is a guide as to how to flash roms: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Flashing_Guide_-_Android. To sideload, the command is simply "adb sideload name of file" without the quotation marks. For further help regarding your problem, you can register and post your questions in the XDA help forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help.
Good luck!

Flashing ROM in Fastboot mode?

Hi,
My Moto G-XT1033 one day failed to boot up, even in recovery it won't.
I unlocked the device and tried flashing a Custom ROM using ADB, but the device is not getting detected in ADB mode, however it is getting detected in Fastboot mode. So I wanted to ask, is there a way I can Fash a ROM(any as a matter of fact, i just need it running) in the Fastboot mode?

Bricked Lava Icon - Need Help

After Lollipop Update of my phone (Lava iris icon), I had to root in again and while trying to root it from custom recovery, I bricked it ( may be the recovery is not compatible). So,it stuck in the bootloop and by pressing Power and volume buttons, I am only able to access Fastboot mode. I downloaded the stock rom of device and tried to flash recovery , boot etc. with fastboot commands, but it is still in bootloop. I also tried to flash cwm recovery (though it is not available for device, I chose the nearest one), but in vain.
When I try to flash system partition, it gives error while erasing system <unknown command> (may be due to fact that phone is not rooted as of now). Also, SP flash tools are not recognizing the device and I cant use adb commands also. So, I am stuck with only fastboot in hand and I have stock rom as well as lollipop update, but i am unable to use these due to errors. Can anyone help? I will be very thankful for an advice. Thanks in advance.

is there a partition file with the stock rom you downloaded?
if so, try to flash that first with fastboot.
