Moto G Bootloader Loop

Hello gang.
I appears this dyslexic numpty has creamed his phone somehow - It's in Soft Brick mode and isn't playing with me any more.
It's a 1st Gen Tesco 8GB, I updated it to GPE and lollipop. But I couldn't get a new sim card working so I flashed Cygo CustomRom with it and now I'm stuck in a bootloop.
I honestly don't know where to start or where to begin, i've followed some tutorials to no avail and I'm wondering if someone would be so kind as to help a fool out. I've tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219 - But I get errors.
Any help would be appreciated.

What errors do you get ? Try relfash the GPe firmware to your device. If you flash the Moto firmware your phone will be bricked from what I know if you have the GPe firmware.

Keep on getting Mismatched Partition Size.
Then when I finish and reboot it just stays on the bootloader unlocked screen.

Try this:
http://android.clients.google.com/p...incremental-KTU84P.M003_18-LRX21Z.M002_15.zip
Download it and then sideload it with ADB to recovery.
Make sure you have the fastboot drivers installed and adb installed and then write the folowing command
adb sideload
after "sideload" you type the location of the zip file and enter !

[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!

Need Help on Bootloop, How to unbrick XT1033 from bootloop? :(

Help ! Help ! Help !
First of all My power key is not working
I was using stock rom 5.1 in my Moto G falcon xt1033 and was so curious about android M and CM13 . So I installed Teamwin TWRP recovery and flashed Official Cyanogenmod 13 (nightly) with nexus 4 gaaps.
It was running smooth then i installed Cosmos CM12.X theme from CM Theme after upadate of theme i got msg " Unfortunately, System UI has stopped. "
Due to not working of my power button i used google device manager to restart phone by choosing Erase my phone .
then my phone is gone to bootloop. Now i can see only Flashing screen of " teamwin '.
Please help me . How to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

You need to get fastboot / ADB working on a PC / Laptop. See FAQ Question 6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537119
The following command will get TWRP Recovery working:
fastboot erase userdata​
When in TWRP Recovery, you can push a ROM.zip to phone using this command:
adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/​

Then i, installed Gapps = ARM_6.0_micro (opengapps.org)
then everything is fine play games, etc.
i installed super su from play store, but unable to update binary!
so boot into recovery and flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
now i stuck in boot loop,
(Earlier Point)now what to do?> and after installation of rom twrp asking me for partition modification- Keep Read-Only OR Allow Modification. i select allow modification. so where i go wrong?
NOw stuck in boot loop, i can able to in Fastboot and select recovery also,
so what do i do, option 1-> wipe everything n install rom , gapps again.
option2-> without wiping install rom (like doing overwrite) onalready installed rom.

@Nile786 - Might be worth flashing a more recent version of SuperSU: https://download.chainfire.eu/1003/SuperSU/SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip​

@lost101

How to revert back to normal from gpe... Urgent help plz

htc one e8 dual sim[India] stuck at boot screen after OTA update[android 6.0]

Hello,
Today I got notification for my marshmallow update for my HTC one e8. But I had TWRP recovery in my mobile and S-ON. and somewhere on youtube I watched a video how to get OTA update on rooted HTC ONE devices so follow the following steps :
1) Get back to your stock recovery : - which did by taking the recovery.img file from update package and flashing the recovery using fastboot.[which removes twrp with this new recovery].
2) then i started installing the update which I think successfully installed.
but when it rebooted it stuck at the boot screen. Then after 3-4 hours I factory reset my cell by visiting boot loader. But nothing happens and now I am stuck . Please help me how to recover my phone.
Also I am not able to change back the recovery to TWRP, as in fastboot device is undetectable.
so is there any way to get back my phone from TWRP backup which I made earlier when I installed TWRP

Solution
I faced a similar solution and i'd suggest you to do the following
The main issue was that adb debugging was off so its wasn't getting detected in the fastboot shell in the pc.
Install htc mobile drivers on my pc (google it, you can find this easily).
Keep the phone in HBOOT mode and connect it to the pc. Open device manager in the pc, you will now see that your htc device is now listed there.
Now open the command prompt from adb and fastboot folder. Switch the phone into FASTBOOT mode.
Now give the command: adb devices .
Do not worry if your device is still not shown in the list of devices attached.
Give the command : fastboot reboot-bootloader
Your phone should reboot in the bootloader mode again. If this happens, it confirms that the device is successfully connected to the pc . :good:
Now you flash custom recovery in your phone using the command :
fastboot flash recovery "<name-of-the-recovery>.img"
Then reboot the phone using :
fastboot reboot
Now try to enter into recovery mode. Your custom recovery will open up.
Now you can restore a twrp backup (I'm assuming that you have one. It is always recommended to have a backup of your phone whwnever you root your phone).
Reboot and you are done !!

hey finally I updated my cellphone to MM.
if you are in bootloop then follow the above steps given by skm14. [for this step you can get TWRP backup for you phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-e8/help/htc-one-e8-mid-cid-ruu-ota-twrp-t2903210 ]
And then follow these steps which is given by firegun : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66489008&postcount=82 ( But replace the "fastboot oem relock " with "fastboot oem lock".)
if u want RUU the follow this link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66489660&postcount=84
after doing the above steps just download the OTA updates from setting->about->software update one by one and you will be able to update to MM

hey listen to update your cellphone to MM using OTA updates you need to have a re locked bootloader or you should not have any SU binaries in your phone so to do this you need RUU. If you are able to connect your cellphone to ypur PC and able to use fastboot then using fastboot just relock the phone using above mentioned commands and then use RUU to get back to stock lollipop ROM and the start updating using OTA. I did yesterday all these and now I have MM in my cell and its working fine with sense 7 ( which means no restrictions on themes).

I have the first OTA which was of 94 MB but I do not have the OTA which was 1.09 GB bcoz I was not able to find this in the download folder of the internal storage. If you want that 94 MB OTA than I can provide you that but not the others :
https://mega.nz/#!NRc1kIZD!ZuliXc-VgzJ3XkahuBBvO9ROmC_z1elXemGuWMoss4Q
NO, I have not rooted my phone after update becoz I am waiting for other update which might arrive if there is any bug in the current update, I will root my phone after 1 month.

Dear all Dual SIM Indian M8SD users,
Please could you share your experience of updating to MM? I am having no network connection with SIM slot 2. SIM slot 1 is fine.
I then downgraded to Lollipop by flashing the RUU via fastboot after erasing the phone memory via TWRP recovery. Both SIM started working perfectly again. Then did an OTA update in four stages (from 2.33.720.3 to 2.33.720.4 to 2.33.720.6 to 2.33.720.8 to 3.06.720.2 MM) to Marshmallow.
Same problem with SIM 2 again. In the meantime, have tried various other tweaks (all combinations of settings/ removing SIMS and back in/factory resets etc.). None works.
Any help and ideas will be really appreciated.
Many thanks.
