I literally JUST unbricked my Moto G XT1032 after searching for a long while and piecing instructions together. Here's how:
PREPARATIONS
1) Download XT1032_RETAIL-BR-SS_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_42_cid12_CFC_1FF.xml.zip
This is the stock firmware you need to flash. I haven't tried it with anything else. The instructions that follow are specific to this file, although you should be able to follow the general idea to install different ROMS.
Get the firmware (or a different one) here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/index-moto-g-falcon-factory-firmware-t3110795
2) Ensure that you also have the correct Motorola drivers for this phone. Download 32-bit or 64-bit versions depending on your PC.
Get them here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2550635
3) Download MFastBoot v2
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...ng-mfastboot-exe-to-unbrick-motorola-t3203518
or simply download the file at (https://mega.nz/#F!xUh10AAD!5NvRwDf6eAfjE3bUWZfk7g)
Note: From what I've experienced, you CANNOT use normal Fastboot on this phone. You will keep getting errors such as Failed (remote failure). You have to use MFastBoot.
Open the downloaded file. There will be two other zip files inside it. Extract all contents of mfastboot-v2.zip to a folder of your choice.
4) Download TWRP Recovery. It's usually a good idea to have a recovery, even though it's not used to flash the ROM.
Get the highest version of it here: https://dl.twrp.me/falcon/
Extract the .img file to the SAME folder as where you extracted mfastboot and rename it to twrp.img (not really necessary, but it's easier to type into the command prompt).
5) Extract all contents of XT1032_RETAIL-BR-SS_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_42_cid12_CFC_1FF.xml.zip to the SAME folder as where you extracted mfastboot.
6) Ensure the phone is off. Hold VOL DOWN first, and then press POWER button for about 5 seconds, then release POWER button before releasing VOL DOWN. You should be in fastboot mode. Plug the USB cable into the phone now.
If you see Device is locked. Status 0, follow the instructions in the UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER section.
If you see Device is unlocked. Status 3, continue to step 7.
FLASHING THE FIRMWARE
7) Open the folder where everything has been extracted to.
Hold CTRL+Shift and right click in an empty area of the folder. You will see a normally hidden option to "Open Command Window Here". Select that option and a command prompt window will open. If you are not seeing this, you may not have administrative rights on your account.
Type this into the command prompt: mfastboot reboot
I'm unsure if this is required or not, but mfastboot wouldn't work unless I rebooted it from the command prompt before any other instruction.
8) This is the step where the TWRP recovery and ROM files are flashed.
Type the following into the command prompt, pressing enter after each line. Alternatively, just copy each line and right click>paste into the command prompt. Credits to AgentChaos for the following:
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img
If you used normal fastboot at this step, it will fail and give you an error of "Failure (remote failure)". or it will say it could not find or write to some directory.
Hopefully it does not fail, and should say OKAY after writing each file. This step will take several minutes.
If you used a different firmware than I did, you will have to flash the correct files to the correct directories, and they MAY be different than the ones listed above. I think (but I am not sure) that the only difference would be having to flash and additional sparsechunk.3 or 4. I would not suggest doing this if you aren't sure.
After all files have been flashed, do one final mfastboot reboot and press VOL DOWN and select Recovery, then press VOL UP to start it. You should see the TWRP recovery screen. The screen may glitch out but otherwise be operable. You can press REBOOT then SYSTEM to start the phone normally.
I hope this has been helpful.
UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER
A) Open the folder where everything has been extracted to.
Hold CTRL+Shift and right click in an empty area of the folder. You will see a normally hidden option to "Open Command Window Here". Select that option and a command prompt window will open. If you are not seeing this, you may not have administrative rights on your account.
Connect the USB and type this into the command prompt: mfastboot oem get_unlock_data
You will see a string of characters that looks like:
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00
(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95
(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
B) Go to Motorola's unlocking bootloder tool website here:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b
You will need to create an account with a legitimate email account, which takes 1-2 minutes.
There is a text box on Motorola's site where you need to type the exact combined code you received from top to bottom with symbols included, but don't include "(bootloader)". Agree to their terms and services.
C) You will receive an email with your bootloader unlock code.
Go to the command prompt and type: mfastboot reboot to reboot the device. Alternatively, just reboot it manually.
Type: mfastboot oem unlock UNIQUE_KEY where UNIQUE_KEY is the unlock code you received. The screen should go black and you should see the word "Unlock...". The phone may stop responding at this point, in which case simply wait 1-2 minutes to ensure it is finished doing what it was doing, and then manually reboot it.
Boot into fastboot again and now your device should say "Device is unlocked. Status 3"

Hi to all from a new user
Your help has been useful to me several times but I can not solve this last problem.
I have an Asus tf300tl: after unlocking the bootloader and installed the cwm the terminal will start cwm mode only.
The I cwm release Cache errors in the mount, partition, system, sd etc. In addition, the terminal does not start in download-mode and therefore can not act fast-boot mode.
With adb I can get shell access and view the content. With adb-push can not install a *. Zip and when I enable sideload from cwm communication between the PC and the device stops.
I apologize for my English
thanks a buster99:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&nocache=1&z=9056634965818376
thi is the guide:
1) download the firmware from the asus website and unpack it so that you have copied the file blob that will go in a folder
(named TF300t) that go inside the folder adb
2) connect the tablet to your PC by installing the drivers, so that the PC sees it as android bootloader interface (or adb)
3) avoid apx you only lose time and the process should be done in nvflasher
4) Reset the tablet, while holding vol. -
5) when you restart let the symbol RCK do not press anything
6) click on Run CMD
7) c:\users\yourname> (if you have set at the beginning of the computer configuration)
8) type cd:\adb press enter
9) type cd:\fastboot
10), make sure a file blob extracted from the firmware using the command :dir
11) started to write in this order:
12) fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase system
13) fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase recovery
14) fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase userdata
15) fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase boot
16) fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase misc
17) fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase cache
18) fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system c:\ adb\TF300t\blob (if all goes well the symbol rck it flashes, and a progress bar appears blue
to indicate that you are copying the firmware on the tablet)
19) fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot

Hi,
I have messed around with my rooted Moto G and edited build.props. I turned on my phone and a message came up saying "error system.ui has stopped"' this message kept repeating every time I pressed OK.
After failing to fix it, I went onto my recovery and wiped the storage, cache and dalvik. Obviously now when I turn on the phone it just stays on the boot image and nothing happens.I put the phone into fast boot by holding power and vol down, then tried to flash 4.4.2 Stock ROM to my phone but all CMD says is "waiting for device". I'm not sure what to do from here.
Can anyone help me at all? I've already posted before but no one seems to help me.
If you need any screenshots etc I will add them
Thanks,
Matt
@barky02
what are you using to try and install your stock rom? are you just in command prompt terminal or using a program?
anyway,,, your phone needs to be in fastboot mode to be able to run adb commands

When your phone is off, push volume down and power button simultaneously for a few seconds, then it should start fastboot. Plug in your USB cable and proceed with other steps as guide says.

404 error? is it the right link?
I assume you are trying to run "flashall.bat"?
in the command prompt try this
adb kill-server
then type
adb start-server
then try running the commands...
I believe you are a full xt1028 Verizon phone?
I know what I do for 4.4.2 is using the file
CFC-fastboot_falcon_verizon_user_4.4.2_KXB20.9-1.10-1.20_22_release-keys.xml.zip
un-zip [extract] that file,,,
then make sure you copy and paste from the "/windows" folder in the zip
fastboot.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
cAdbWinUsbApi.dll
into the main folder [where your .bat file is]
with phone connected to pc...
then open it up and double click on the .bat file
CFC-fastboot_falcon_verizon_user_4.4.2_KXB20.9-1.10-1.20_22_release-keys.bat
and it will do all the necessary work

after reading some more up on mfastboot I don't believe you have to use the adb commands...
you should be able to use this file mfastboot.bat.txt as long as you have the mfastboot.exe on your pc
download it and move it into your "EE-GB-SL_FALCON_KLB20.9-1.10-1.24-1.1_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml" folder
then rename it to just mfastboot.bat
and doubleclick that
and follow along
don't worry if you see errors on your device screen, it's normal
this is the contents and the correct flashing order of the bat file
and are for that xml.zip that you have
edit:: edited to remove file and update below code to hopefully work
Code:
SET mfastboot=mfastboot.exe
%mfastboot% flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
%mfastboot% flash partition gpt.bin
%mfastboot% flash motoboot motoboot.img
%mfastboot% flash logo logo.bin

then put the .bat file inside the firmware folder,,, then doubleclick the .bat file while phone is in fastboot mode and attached to pc
Hello ,
First of all Thanks to Buster99 and his Solution for fixing this problem,
This guide is for helping you to fix Unrecoverable bootloader error, Hope it will help you out of this problem,
Step-by-step guide:
1 - Download the Stock rom .
2 - Extract downloaded file and put the blob file in fastboot folder.
3 - if you need adb,apx,fastboot drivers , i attached these drivers so you can download it from below.
4- Power off the tablet.
5- Connect the tablet to PC via USB cable.
6- Boot your tablet into the recovery mode. Press and hold Volume DOWN+Power keys together.
7- Open command prompt. For this, go to Start. Select ‘Run’ and type ‘cmd’. go to your fastboot folder.
8- type following command-lines in cmd-window:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase misc
fastboot erase cache
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob(depending on where you stored extracted blob file)
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot
Remember : Wait until you've seen in the CMD window that erase or upload is finished.
hope this solution works for whoever is facing the same problem,
I'm very glad, you saved your tablet
Thought I would make a thread, which could help someone.
My bootloader is unlocked
I was using Marshmallow LOS 13 unofficial build by Qbanin.
But these directions should be the same for anyone on MM unlocked.
You will need to know how to use ADB from PC and have platform-tools.
The reason I upgraded to 14.1 unofficial instead of official is because official requires the MM modem, and I had already flashed the stock nougat rom when i started looking for roms to flash.
Download the Nougat Stock Firmware:
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620765304
Drop the contents of unzipped stock nougat into your platform-tools folder.
Hit the shift button and right click the mouse and 'open command window here'
Connect your MM device to your pc - booted into your current rom with usb debugging enabled
In the command windows type 'adb devices', you may need to confirm access on the screen of your phone, and try the command again.
Make sure your device is listed and authorized.
Type in the command window 'adb reboot bootloader'
Your device will reboot into the bootloader and is ready to program
Run these commands to flash stock nougat, make sure each command succeeds.
If they do not, run any command that fails multiple times until it succeeds and move on to the next, if a command fails more than 5-10 times in a row, start over from the beginning.
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata -w
fastboot reboot
If your device reboots into bootloader repeatedly run this command:
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
Your device will reboot, wait a while during Nougats first run.
Once Nougat is loaded and you pass setup, enable developer options and then ADB usb debugging.
run 'adb devices' command again and confirm the device is listed and authorized.
Download latest official TWRP 3.2.1.0
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/clark/
rename the file to twrp.img and place in the platform-tools folder
Download LOS 14.1 Unofficial (the latest build 2/23 is for MM modem: avoid)

Move the file to the root of your external sd card via MTP.
Download ARM64 7.1 OpenGapps and move to root of your external sd card
http://opengapps.org/
Run these commands in the command prompt
adb reboot bootloader
adb flash recovery twrp.img
Press 'down vol' for the recovery option and then press the power button
Phone should reboot into TWRP recovery
Allow TWRP to modify contents by swiping at the bottom.
Remember TWRP makes you swipe if your screen shuts off, so you may need to swipe twice to peform operations, ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION IN TWRP.
Select WIPE in twrp, and then ADVANCED WIPE.
Select the Data checkbox and hit the Repair or Change File System at bottom.
Select CHANGE FILE SYSTEM at bottom right.
Select F2FS and proceed with the format.
Select WIPE (again) from home screen choose to wipe dalvik,system,internal & cache
Select INSTALL from home screen and choose the LineageOS 14.1 build.
You will need to SELECT STORAGE at bottom left and choose your external card.
Add the openGapps 7.1 to the install queue as well.
Swipe to confirm flash and let the new rom and gapps install.
After complete wipe dalvik/cache and reboot.
Enjoy your new rom.
I also flashed systemless root in twrp.

This is for unofficial 14.1 only using the 2/10 or 2/18 build only.
The 2/23 build as I understand is a test build for MM modem only.
All future builds should be verified around the forum with hashbangs notes/recommendations as they do not exist at the time of this post.
My Android phone (Motorola Edge) can no longer start properly after a failed system update. The message I get is: "Cannot load Android system. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device."
I've tried restarting it in recovery mode which didn't work. I've read that I may be able to install some software via USB and rescue the system but I have no idea how that's done. I've looked at some different rescue software such as Rescue and Smart Assistant (which would only let me rescue the phone which will erase all data) and Dr.Fone but the reviews aren't convincing and the unofficial software programs generally don't support Motorola phones. Does anyone know how to fix my phone without losing my data?? Any help is much appreciated.
Also; I'm in no way a developer so I need everything explained to me like I'm 12 years old.
hi, kid welcome to xda.
now about your problem, it is very simple.
1) download latest firmware according to your country.
2) boot the phone into recovery mode.
3) if you have windows on pc then install minimal adb and fast boot from this Link
4) connect your phone to pc using adb cable ( the cable in charger )
5)open command prompt type adb devices
6) if you see any thing like 213547448882 recovery ( recovery should be displayed)
7) type adb reboot bootloader
secondly unzip the downloaded firmware you will see many files with .img extension
8) type fastboot erase system
9) type fastboot flash system <----- here don't type system rather drag and drop file in cmd for location of file
10) if result is success then you must boot normally without data lose.

Thank you so much for your input. Unfortunately I can't make it work. When I type 'adb devices', I get this text:
List of devices attached
ZY227HQ2BX sideload
I've attached more info. Not sure if this has something to do with "USB debugging"?
all things right,
that sideload appears because you have stock recovery {no need to worry}
you don't need to erase system, (it is like optional)
and the error ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT....... is because as i said earlier you have to copy the path of the file not file name.
how to copy path of the file ?
well, simple on windows, open the folder in which system file is present. and again open command prompt type (remember to be in fastboot mode in mobile phone)
fastboot flash {drag and drop system file from folder to command prompt}.
it should look like (but not the same, it is an example)
fastboot flash E:/newfolder/nexus/files/system.img
tell me if you face any problem (also include screenshots like you did, great right?)
What file is the system file in this folder?

Hi again, I've spent all weekend trying to figure it out but so far no luck.
I don't know where to find the system file in the folder I downloader (see attached photo in my reply above this). I also tried making a service-batfile with guidance from YouTube but it seems my phone is locked so it doesn't work.
well sorry i was quite busy so i was not able to reply.
first thing first do you need your data
if so boot into twrp. find twrp image for your phone then use command in fastbootmode
fastboot boot and drag and drop twrp file.
after successfully booting into twrp use option to backup and backup your data in any external storage like sd card.
after that run flash all.bat inside your downloaded folder.
i will completely wipe and reinstall your firmware.
then after it again in fastboot mode boot into twrp and restore your backup that's it.

Will unlocking the device delete my data?

What about your original suggestions - will they not work on a locked device? Fx this:
now about your problem, it is very simple.
1) download latest firmware according to your country.
2) boot the phone into recovery mode.
3) if you have windows on pc then install minimal adb and fast boot from this Link
4) connect your phone to pc using adb cable ( the cable in charger )
5)open command prompt type adb devices
6) if you see any thing like 213547448882 recovery ( recovery should be displayed)
7) type adb reboot bootloader
