Adb can be used when you're phone is on. When in fastboot (bootloader) you begin using "fastboot _______". In this case: fastboot devices

ACtually, the phone was powering off automatically when i booted it up. Since then i have been trying to flash roms which didnt work until i flashed a Brazillian ROM which booted it up.But i havent been able to find it in fastboot devices now. Finally i wanna settle for a CM11 with philz. But unable to detect it,how can i change the recovery.?

For flashing recovery use either of the two
If you can boot into OS then download flashify app
Or use fastboot command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

PRESS THANKS IF HELPED?

ADB commands work when the phone is booted and USB debugging has been enabled.
Fastboot and mfastboot commands only work when the phone is in fastboot mode.

Can you flash a .img file? I haven't tried that. But this still doesn't answer the question why fastboot commands or adb doesn't respond with this rom.
Yes u can via flashboot.

I get that, any idea how to get into fastboot now?
In order to issue a fastboot command the phone needs to be in fastboot.
You would not issue that command. You would issue adb reboot bootloader. Or just reboot boot loader on the terminal on the phone with su privileges
When the phone is in the bootloader put it in fastboot mode then you issue fastboot commands from a computer that is properly set up to do. Like fastboot devices. Or fastboot flash recovery recovery image name.img etc
I would love to do that except when I go into boot loader there is no option for fastboot

Yes thats true. But before running the commands run : fastboot devices. If you see a long number youre jn fastboot mode and the drivers are correctly installed.
Then you can run the commands

[Q] Moto G stuck on "Warning Bootloader unlocked" screen

After rootting my moto G around a month ago, the KitKat update has came out, I tried to update on my phone and there was an error, then I tried updating it from the PC, again another error. Then when I would turn my phone on it would turn off after around 1 minute after turning on, So I found a thread to install the update manually, then I had errors flashing partitions as said in the steps on this other website. I uplugged the phone as I kept getting errors, now when I try to turn it on it just gets stuck on "WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED" screen. Even when I hold down the power button to turn it off, it just turns the screen black, vibrates, turns back on with the warning screen. I cannot enter fastboot with holding down power and the volume key. I am stuck here any tips or anyone know what is going on/ causing the error?
Did u got the phone completlely off? If not - try it and try to Boot in fastboot then.

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
Try fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
i have same problem
I am also having same problem. did anyone found solution for this?
There can be many reasons for this: broken ROM, incorrect kernel etc. Unless you know specifically the last thing you changed; you are better off doing a factory reset and installing a new ROM in Recovery or flashing a firmware image via fastboot.
I am having this exact same issue. the phone is stuck on the unlocked bootloader screen. It is still responsive, I can get into the fastboot and even clockwork recovery mod but nothing i do will escapt the bootloop. I even tried a factory reset in Fastboot and Clockwork and the RSD lite method but it didnt work.
Go to the 'Restore Stock Firmware' thread and re-flash your firmware again. I've had bootloops before.

I did, I tried that method but when I get to step 3B I cannot get mboot or whatever to work. First it throws an error and asks for an obscure Adb.dll that i hunted down and put in its folder but then i click it to open and it flashes up for a second then closes. Excuse me while I go cry in a corner for a bit. :crying:

NEED URGENT HELP
I accidentally wiped the internal storage of my Moto G XT1033 (dual sim variant), since the OS is lost now my phone is stuck at bootloader warning. I can access TWRP recovery. In device manager I can see Google Nexus ADB Interface. And in taskbar (safely remove hardware and eject media) phone is recognized as Eject XT1032. But in file explorer/My computer I can't see the phone. My phone drivers are installed.
I've tried adb shell command and I am getting this error:
C:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb shell
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
and with adb devices command following error:
C:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb devices
List of devices attached
(this line/area is blank)
C:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
Now how can I fix ADB or this problem? Please help

If you have access to TWRP, then are you able to go into the Advanced menu and use the ADB Sideload feature to flash over a ROM from your PC? I had a problem while working with my phone the other day during its initial unlocking and flashing where I'd broken the system install but still had access to TWRP, and by swiping and enabling ADB Sideload, I was able to flash in a new ROM with my phone connected to my computer by running: adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip
Alternatively, you may be able to use the stock firmware restoration procedure detailed elsewhere in this forum to restore your stock firmware via fastboot.
Pardon me if I haven't fully grasped your issue. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the help. I tried ADB Sideload feature in twrp as well the adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip this command/feature was not working from the pc.
Anyways, I tried USB OTG method, copied CM nightly into my flash-drive then attached flash-drive + OTG cable with phone, at first OTG was not working don't know why it could not mount, I restarted phone, went into recovery and then I could installed rom from flashdrive. Finally my phone is working now
I am totally new to android and this rom rooting stuff. Moto G is my first android smartphone coming directly from iPhone 5 so I was scared like hell
If anyone failed with ADB Sideload method please try USB OTG method and your phone will work again. Hope this help others

You first have to select the usb storage in TWRP because TWRP detected internal storage. U can even mount usb otg from TWRP options. after selecting usb then u can see the files in ur usb drive.
I'm stuck on the same Warning screen, it is not a bootloop since the phone just seems to freeze but after a minute I get the windows sound as if you conected something via USB, but the warning screen stays, I've let it for hours and I've flashed stock roms. Even when you flash a no warning boot logo.bin the screen shows again even when mfastboot shows as succesful flash. Out of ideas now, please help

Thanks

Solution for MotoG locked in bootloader,
I think you must have tried to install another kernel version or so. If you have installed cyanogen try resinsallting the lasted update by going into custom recovery and flashing the latest update in the cmupdater file. Worked for me ! Lets hope that it works for you too. All the best !

[Q] PC won't recognise phone, but Moto Tool will

I need to restore to stock firmware to get Lollipop, but adb won't recognise my phone in cmd, thus I can't follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219 . I installed the Motorola Drivers from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2550635 , and I have the Motorola Device Manager installed. MotoTool picks up my device and is able to boot it into fastboot and install CWM or TWRP, but when I try to flash stock recovery using MotoTool it either gives me a 'no command' screen or doesn't work at all. Anyone having the same problem/know how to fix this? I'm on the Moto G 2013 XT1032 British retail.
EDIT: I fixed it! I replaced Moto Tool's stock recovery with the one that was included in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3#post54872143 then used Moto Tool to flash it, as that recognised my phone. I could then download the OTA as normal and installed it like a regular update. Enjoying Lollipop!
If the phone is in fastboot mode, try using fastboot commands on your computer. At the command prompt, type fastboot devices to see of your phone's serial # appears.
Do you have USB debugging enabled in settings?
Are you opening cmd in the directory where fastboot and adb were installed?
Are you sure you installed adb and fastboot correctly?

Yes to both of these, I was in fastboot and 'adb devices' came back with nothing even though I was in the directory where adb and fastboot were installed and the phone had USB debugging enabled. I fixed it a different way though, I replaced Moto Tool's stock recovery with the one that was included in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=54872143#post54872143 then used Moto Tool to flash it as that recognised my phone.

Adb commands won't work when the phone is in fastboot mode from what I have seen.

Boot loops For my Moto G 1st gen after Nandroid backup using TWRP Recovery

Hai
I unlocked my Moto G (XT1033 with Lollipop ) bootloader and Installed TWRP recovery and everything was smooth until I tried for a Nandroid backup (the storage space was little low).
After the backup i tried for the reboot my moto just showing bootloader unlocked warning only.i tried fast boot using the power key +volume down key it shows the AP Fastboot flash Mode (s). Recovery option shows team win logo for 3-4 seconds and then the unlocked bootloader message and loops.only barcode option works.
then i dig through XDA Forum n tried custom recovery using ADB and fastboot tool.
installed moto usb drivers and tried to connect using usb cable as my device in fastboot flash mode my win 10 detects my phone as fastboot falcon s .but when i tried adb/fast boot commands it just shows waiting for device or null no device detected .
what should i do .please help ..
my local serviceman says after seeking motorola forum support(as he said) IC may be damaged.
if like that motherboard changing will be the only option ihave left??
I did before like you with twrp 2.8.6. just reinstall stock firmware by fastboot n then re-root again. Now i use twrp 2.8.7. I hope its fine to make nandroid backup then 2.8.6

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?
