WiFi not working after flashing stock files. - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there!
Before I flashed these I had 5.1.1 Retail UK stock, rooted, xposed installed with gravitybox, disabled the softkeys with the build.prop command & turned the volume up with rx_mixerpaths
I downloaded XT1541_OSPREY_RETGB_5.1.1_LPI23.72-47_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip from this thread & used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015...ctory-t3187750 to flash the phone to complete stock before I pass it down the family.
Upon booting it won't turn on the WiFi, I try to turn it on & it flicks off straight away. I had a quick search & came across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto...tooth-t2813308 I have checked the /persist folder & its empty unlike those guys in that thread.
I was wondering if someone could be generous enough to share these files with me? Unless there is another way to get the WiFi working again?
Many many thanks!

I had the exact same problem when trying to flash the generic Canadian firmware. I flashed three times to no avail. Then I downloaded and flashed a carrier-specific version of the Canadian firmware and suddenly wifi worked.

Any chance you'd be able to share your files in /persist folder if you are rooted?
I think this will sort it. The phone was a simfree one I don't really want to flash carrier-specific software if possible.

The carrier-specific one won't lock your phone or put any bloatware on it. It's simply one that was taken from a phone that somebody bought from that carrier. The one I used was from a different carrier than the one I bought the phone from originally.

I can't from where I am right now. Hopefully you can find someone who can upload it, otherwise I recommend giving a different firmware download a try.

Here ya go, keep in mind this is from XT1540 Canadian retail.

Thank you so much for taking the time to upload those though! I really appreciate it.

I don't think the issue is solved, he just returned to the previous factory image, I'm having the same issue with the US model. I posted in the factory image thread on general and I'm not the only one
at least for some people if you try to upgrade via fastboot, wifi is broken

you need to flash back to the original factory image and then take the OTA , do NOT try to upgrade directly with the latest factory image, or you will find yourself in brick city

I'll try that, thanks - is flashing back to the original factory image the same process, just with a different zip (e.g. XT1540_OSPREY_RETUS_2GB_5.1.1_LPI23.72-44_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC)?
Also, this wifi thing is weird - I was able to connect to my home wifi without issue, but my work wifi causes the shutdown problem (if I try to fiddle with it and get it to connect, it just crashes and reboots the phone).

by my experience
-flashing 16.3 image was ok,
-flashing 44 image (I only flashed system and radio) resulted in broken wifi
by other users' experiences I read
-flashing 44 image(all partitions) resulted in a brick
-flashing 47 image was ok at least by one user
my device is XT1540 US 1GB RAM at this point I would suggest you research your particular model/factory images compatible with your model and decide for yourself what factory image to flash, there's been a few bricks already so beware of dragons...

I already tried it with no luck...if you look at getvar data you will see cid is 0xDEAD thats why i am worried.

This is the story: the former owner tried to root the phone, as he said he unlocked the bootloader, then something went wrong. He tried to install CM, and he softbricked the phone. It has the IMEI but there is some problem with CID and UID as a look at the prompt from fastboot getvar all. Somehow the unlock commands doesnt work, and i ve got preflash vaildation faild errors, when i try to flash boot or recovery or system img. The phone wont boot if i turn it on it goes to bootloader.

Found this you could try this.
I came across a similar situation after writing an emmc image taken from one XT1032 to a second XT1032.
After rebooting, the second XT1032 (which was already unlocked) behaved just like your device (reported as LOCKED, and when trying to unlock, gave the 'fastboot oem unlock disabled!' error message).
Eventually, and with some trickery, I was able to resolve the issue by restoring the 'cid' and 'sp' partitions to their original state.
check device manager on windows and see if you have unknow devices on your phone and change adb from there

It has been quite a while since you posted this, but I have the same problem where I overwrote the cid partition and I am unsure how to get it back. Any chance you remember this trickery?

Flashing NON-GPE stock problem

Hello there guys! I'll resume my history.
So this was me one month after buying the Motorola Moto G XT1032 8GB, unlocking the bootloader without any problems So I wasn't really into the device info and didn't know about a GPE. So I downloaded a folder with a couple of images and .bin files and excuted a .bat inside the folder that turned my Stock 4.4.4 into Stock 4.4.2 GPE. After first reboot I just installed Paranoid Android and didn't come back to stock since then (a few months back).
Now I tried to go back to stock NON-GPE flashing "Android 4.3 Blur_Version.14.71.8.falcon_umts.Latam.en.AR" and "Android 4.4.2 Blur_Version.173.44.9.falcon_umts.Latam.en.AR" with this method GUIDE] Moto G - Restore stock firmware and I got this two errors in both of the cases:

You see? I got error with gtp.bin and motoboot.img but I kept flashing to see where that would take me. It turned out to take me witha bootloop Never going further than logo.
So what did I do? I ran that GPE 4.4.2 I flashed the first time I unlocked my bootloader. And it was alive again, booting like a charm. Now on crDroid again.
And my question is: what happened? Why am I able to flash a GPE 4.4.2 but not a Latam stock Retail for my country (Argentina)? I don't get it. I flashed from Windows and Ubuntu, with differents fastboot files, with mfasboot given in that Tutorial but nothing worked except turning it into a GPE Moto G.
Any contribution will be helpful, still want to go to stock Moto G. Cheers.

Hello there guys! I'll resume my history.
So this was me one month after buying the Motorola Moto G XT1032 8GB, unlocking the bootloader without any problems So I wasn't really into the device info and didn't know about a GPE. So I downloaded a folder with a couple of images and .bin files and excuted a .bat inside the folder that turned my Stock 4.4.4 into Stock 4.4.2 GPE. After first reboot I just installed Paranoid Android and didn't come back to stock since then (a few months back).
Now I tried to go back to stock NON-GPE flashing "Android 4.3 Blur_Version.14.71.8.falcon_umts.Latam.en.AR" and "Android 4.4.2 Blur_Version.173.44.9.falcon_umts.Latam.en.AR" with this method GUIDE] Moto G - Restore stock firmware and I got this two errors in both of the cases:

Do this at your own risk:
If your phone is a gsm xt1032 then grab a EU(european) 4.4.4 stock firmware and flash that via fastboot. Should work...
If not then try flashing a custom recovery like twrp or clockworkmod. Grab the EU or US 4.4.4 untouched from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688 and flash it via recovery.

Use fastboot and flash a stock firmware or use a custom rom good enough to keep ur phone eg my personal usage nexus experience rom
you can access your phones internal storage with a custom recovery and flash roms easily

Maybe that sparsechunk did not extract fully from the zip. Re-extract, or download the entire zip again.

Keep trying, you should be able to enter recovery mode. The instructions are press and hold Vol up, then tap Power button - not what you describe.

I would try flashing that firmware image via mfastboot. When the new XT1033 Asia firmware image becomes available, you can change to that if you want.

[GUIDE][ROM][STOCK] XT1766 Stock Firmware & Restoration Guide

Moto E (4th Gen) xt1766 Sperry
Stock Android 7.1.1 Firmware
Fastboot Restoration Guide​
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Because there are reports of devices becoming bricked due to downgrading, please disregard this thread and firmware. This is a link to the newly added factory firmware package for the most current build version for the xt1766 SPerry. Please go here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e4/how-to/firmware-restoring-moto-e4-xt1766-t3820749
DISCLAIMER: Please take note that the following stock firmware package is not the official Motorola firmware package, nor is it signed by Motorola. This is a package I have compiled with partition dumps from a pure stock & unmodified Android OS. I have tested this procedure, as have other members, and no adverse issues have arisen upon installing the firmware. However, I am not responsible for devices bricked or otherwise rendered inoperable as a result of installing this firmware or using this guide. You and you alone are responsible for your device. Because this guide does involve fastboot flashing bootloader and other sensitive partitions, follow the instructions to the letter. One mishap while flashing a bootloader partition can leave a device fully inoperable. Also, I have only used this guide on Virgin Mobile variants of the xt1766. It should work on the Sprint and Boost Mobile variants as well, but I cannot personally confirm that at this time.

Hardware SKU: xt1766
Carrier/Provider: Sprint, Virgin Mobile, Boost Mobile
Android Version: 7.1.1 Nougat
Build No. NCQ26.69-64
Radio: M8920_15000.280.06.58.02R
Kernel Version: 3.18.31
Security Patch Level: January 1, 2018
NOTES: This firmware is the most recent version of the stock Android OS. It is completely unmodified.
REQUIREMENTS:
--An unlocked bootloader;
--A PC or laptop running Windows 7 or later;
--Motorola Device Manager: https://motorola-global-en-aus.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_detail/a_id/86934/p/154,4222;
--Minimal ADB & Fastboot (v1.4.3 or later): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1Sfod4HWfk2T0hia0k3Y3pIczA/view?usp=drivesdk;;
--Rudimentary knowledge of fastboot flashing;
--Device charged to at least 60%.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download the stock firmware package from the link below and save the files in your ADB/Fastboot directory on your PC. Boot your device into fastboot/bootloader mode and connect your device and PC with a suitable data sync cable. Open a command window within the ADB/Fastboot directory and execute the following set of commands:
NOTE: The larger image files (system.img & oem.img) will be automatically dissected into individual sparsechunks and incrementally flashed by fastboot. You will initially receive a "header size" error, but just be patient and wait. Fastboot will resolve this and flash the images.
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash aboot aboot.mbn
fastboot flash cmnlib cmnlib.mbn
fastboot flash cmnlib64 cmnlib64.mbn
fastboot flash devcfg devcfg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp dsp.img
fastboot flash modem modem.img
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.img
fastboot flash keymaster keymaster.mbn
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash prov prov.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
Now boot your device normally. You should now be updated to the most recent pure stock Android build, and your device will be fully capable of installing future OTA updates.

this is useful. :good:
but please it would be more good if you move this to the Qualcomm section, because seems you posted it in the MediaTek section.
Please do move it so other users don't come wondering what to do and bricking their devices.

Thank you. I sent the thread link and a PM to Az Biker.
Update: The Sperry xt1766 received an OTA update today for minor bug fixes, stability improvements, and security patches for March 1, 2018. The OTA is Bkur_Version 26.11.68.sperry_sprint.en.US. I will be updating this thread to the new build updated by the OTA. In the meantime, should you wish to revert to pure stock and install the OTA update package, the above fastboot firmware package will put your xt1766 in a pure stock state, and thus capable of installing the OTA update. NOTE: Many people skip recovery.img in order to retain TWRP custom recovery. Here, flashing stock recovery is necessary in order to successfully install the OTA update package.

Hey friend, thanks again for pointing out my oversight. Moderator Az Biker helped me out and moved the thread.
Ok guys, on a positive note, I just successfully flashed a modified OTA update package with TWRP. I think I figured out the bug that was giving me Error 7 previously. So I am working on both recent OTA packages, for patch level January 1, 2018 and March 1, 2018. Hopefully now I can get these fixed and posted and make for a simple means to update stock firmware, without having to gruel out 25 fastboot commands and without having to download large files. Wish me luck. I thank you all for your support and encouragement.

Restore in emergency mode
Greetings.
I would like your help to restore a MOTO E4 XT1766. It does not start with fastboot, because the bootloader is corrupt. The phone connects in emergency mode. I need the file "prog_emmc_firehose_8920.mbn" to be able to restore it. Any idea where I can find it?
error cannot load gpt.bin
I have my phone in fastboot/bootloader mode. Should I be in recovery? I can run the command "fastboot oem fb_mode_set" but I cant run the command "fastboot flash partition gpt.bin" I get "error cannot load gpt.bin". Moto E4 XT1766 Qualcomm any help?
Edit: I am sure I have the files in the same folder as adb and fastboot.
UPDATE][XT1766] Partition Index & Bootloader Updater for SPerry bricked my phone
Hey,
I flashed my phone using the zip from the "UPDATE][XT1766] Partition Index & Bootloader Updater for SPerry" thread and bricked my phone.
Won't even power on and is not recognized by adb/fastboot. "waiting for device"
Is there anyway of unbricking it.
Tried holding the down+power button for 10 seconds
Tried holding the up+power button for 10 seconds.
Charging it for 10 minutes and holding the power button for 10 seconds.
Removed battery and reinserted holding for 10 seconds and plug it in my laptop.
Nothing.
Please help if you can, is there another trick I can do.

Thanks man, worked perfectly.

After successfully using this method, a few days later I was prompted to install May Security Update NCQS26.69-64-5.
I said ok, it downloaded and prompted me to restart. I did.
I rebooted into the initial boot screen, with "bad key" text.
Then it proceeded to "Installing system update"
Then came the Android on his back, with the error! (red exclamation)
Had to power off/on. It restarted and then showed the screen "Software Update Unsuccessful"
Any idea on how I could successfully install the may update?
Thanks!

The bad key is just because the bootloader is unlocked. No big deal. Not sure why the ota failed. I just flash the firmware with rsdlite. Just downloaded the latest firmware available, which was not May's patch, then took the update after I booted up and set up the device. What carrier are you on? Mine is virgin mobile, same as op.
Check in "about phone" and see which software version you're on. My wife's failed once, but when I checked, it had updated.

Thanks for the reply.
I am currently on the March 1 Security Patch, NCQS26.69-64-2
On Sprint network.
I can't figure out how to create a screenshot with this phone, but here is the link from the Update popup: https://support.motorola.com/us/en/solution/MS128968

Screenshot is just like any vanilla Android device. Power + volume down.
Did you root or modify the system in any way? That will cause an ota to fail.

I was originally rooted, but after running the commands in this OP, I did nothing else.
I did save the results of all the Fastboot commands, please see below. A couple commands toward the end gave errors.
