Moto G XT1033 Soft Bricked, Cannot Boot To TWRP or CWM

no custom recovery loading
I am currently using moto G first generation xt1033 indian dual sim version.
I have soft bricked my phone.
WHAT I HAVE: I have access to fastboot
My bootloader is unlocked
Access to stock recovery
PROBLEM: I have tried to flash twrp , cwm and philz recovery but every time i boot into recovery mode stock recovery loads.
I cannot access USB Debugging mode since the phone is soft bricked.
I have also tried to flash stock firmware no change seen.
I would be glad if you all can help me.
@ravibhat i have read your thread and my starting problem was same as yours @lost101 please help me as well.Thank You

Ok.Post pics,videos so that we know it's the same problem.
Go to a service centre when you can and share what they've told.

did u use these steps ?
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery ur_recover_zip_name.zip
try different versions of recovery, i suggest u use CWM V6.0.4.7
If that works, use the adb sideload feature to flash the ROM

thank you for the reply
@ankur.walia
i tried the erase recovery command this was the output

yes, and try the version i mentioned because i was also facing the problem like u and only this specific versions worked for me

still no change
@ankur.walia @ravibhat
i tried the command you told me to. There is no change im unable to boot in flash recovery also now xD.
i also went to the service centre they said there is nothing they can do for this phone as the only thing they know is to flash the stock firmware.

I can go to the bootloader after entering stock recovery no combination of keys can display the option.
my phone starts normally shows logo and all booting animation but after that it gets stuck on a blank screen showing nothing and no touch response. I have tried aprox 4-5 variants of custom recoveries but i can flash none of them even after trying your command and getting success written on screen.

well if u got the successful execution of recovery flashing then it should go to recovery mode, try holding powe and volume down together for quite some time (5-6 seconds by the clock) and then release it

you can see the condition even after flashing the custom recovery i get booted into stock recovery

Unroot, back to stock and update issues.

I'm still on FRD-L09C432B101, haven't had the need to update yet everything just works great. I WAS rooted. Now with nougat around the corner I thought i would prepare my phone for that creamy deliciousness. Said and done i began working on it last night by unrooting through the superuser app (not my smartest move maybe but I couldn't adb and push stock recovery, I just kept getting an error) so I tried to flash recovery.img through twrp which allowed me to try the dload folder method. But everytime I boot into erecovery the phone wants to use wifi and download the update but fails. So now I'm stuck with no root and what seems like no stock recovery for some reason and to top it off unable to use adb.
I think I need some expert help here?

Hey,
Follow this, it should be ok :
- Turn of your phone
- Put the right update.app in the dload folder at the root of your SD CARD
- Plug your USB to your computer
- Press Volume Down and Power button, you will boot in bootloader mode
- Flash the original recovery with fastboot command
- Unplug your USB cable
- Reboot the phone with volume down, volume up and power button pressed
Your phone should update to original.

Is your bootloader unlock ? You can check it in bootloader mode.
Just in case,, have you tried to lauch CMD in administrator ?

how to get the right update?

The FRD-L0xCxxx is your phone model
the B101 in this example is the software version, you need the one that matches your model
and has a higher number than yours for example the next update from B101 is likely B201
search the forums for the firmware or use Huawei firmware finder

guys can someone help me? I should do a clean installation of the system through the "dload" procedure, I state that I'm now using l-09c432b401 (bootloader unlocked) passed a thousand times by various custom rom, flash several stock firmware but they gave me errors, I finally solved partially through the PC flashing boot / vendor.img partition .. here is the phone, but missing various functions .. the point is that I can not install the firmware via the original recovery because it hangs at 5% ... all tried the firmware ... Thanks

HELP!!! Recovery and system wont boot

I just received my Pixel (not XL and not verizon version) that I bought from the Google Store and I tried loading TWRP on it. Fastboot works and I can fastboot into a TWRP recovery, however, whenever I try to flash another recovery with that recovery, the the message warning me to lock the bootloader pops up, then the phone very briefly goes to white screen with the google logo and instantly shuts off. Then it automatically repeats that process.. Am not sure what I did wrong (for example if I accidentally flashed the wrong variant to begin with?) but I also don't know how to fix it. I have tried all of the TWRP variants and nothing has worked. I also think the I was on 7.1.2.
I spent all night searching through all of the threads and could not find anyone who had a similar situation so any help is greatly appreciated and desperately needed.
Thank you in advance

Try fastboot flashing 7.1.2 boot.img, then fastboot boot into TWRP, flash the attached twrp pixel installer, reboot to recovery from recovery , then flash supersu, then reboot. It will reboot a time or two if that is normal.

Thank you so much for your quick response.
Is this the version I use? I want to make sure I download the correct one: 7 .1.2 (N2G47O, May 2017)

Thank you again for your help. I put the June version on instead of the previous and everything seems to be working. My only question is at the end of fastbooting the factory img, it said, "FAILED (remote: Partition table doesn't exist). Is that normal or something to be concerned about?
Here is a photo I took of it:

(Im sorry) Cannot for the life of me get my phone up and running again.

I've tried like heck to find the answer before asking but to no avail. I'll keep it short:
- Phone will not boot, comes up to blue Honor boot screen, shuts off and immediately comes back on, off, on, off
- Can get to Fastboot (blurry image attached)

- device is locked, usb debugging is off (was attempting return to stock)
- CMD shows fastboot device but won't perform any flash or unlock commands (failed: remote command not allowed)
- have yet to get to recovery or erecovery
Is this trick in the button combos? I've tried them all repeatedly, is there a single instant I have to hit them/let them go?
Sorry for yet another help me thread, but I'm lost.

Have tried the dload method? Flash full firmware via dload

The dload might work but idk if it will cus the phone is in a kernal panic it looks like. :crying:

Did you have TWRP installed as your recovery?

I did but removed it while attempting to get back to stock.

Download the full firmware for your model.
Extract the zip. Copy the contents (with update.app) to dload folder on sd card.
Power off the phone( it is already off i think)
Press vol up+ vol down+power key
It should start flashing the stock firmware

Is done that a few times at never had it work. Either one got the wrong firmware (though it came straight from the Honor site) or in doing wondering wrong. I'll give it another go this weekend and try it back. Thanks

Good luck. Hope for the best

Not that anyone is still here but the dload method will not work. The phone won't leave the boot loop and go into recovery. Tried every button combo and timing I could to no avail. I have given up.

You should be able to remotely factory reset it through Google Find My Device

Try DC Unlocker I had this issue and it worked

If your router does not allow you to do that, use DC-Phoenix or Funkyhuawei, but it's a last resort

I think you did something wrong. I used this method 2 times.
