Moto G 3rd gen. not bootable

Hey Mates!
I've been looking for a solution but cant find any helpful advices.
I have rooted my Motorola G; 2 days ago, no problem. As soon as I rebooted it, it wont boot.
these are the errors that occur when I try to boot it
-hab check failed for boot
-failed to verify hab image boot
-failed to validate boot image
Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode
When I try to go to recovery, it says "no command".
It also says that my device is locked.
Meanwhile I've connected it with my PC and I tried to run the desktop version, but no changes so far.
I'd really need your help

Have you tried to reflash the stock kernel?

No I did not. Do you recommend it?
This "how to" is for Samsung Galaxy, I know, but I guess it would be a similiar way to reflash the stock kernel of the Moto G?
Thanks in advance.

How do you rooted?

It seems like the link between your pc and phone was lost during data transfer. Ensure to have the link between the mobile and pc secured. Try replacing the drivers and the usb cable with a good quality one. Loose connections can also cause this type of problem. Something similar happened to me too...
After above flash factory firmware to revive your device first. You can root it subsequently.
You can get all the information in the forum under the Factory Firmware thread. Be careful to download the firmware compatible for your mobile model only.

When I rooted my phone I never connected it with my Moto G; after I couldnt boot it, I tried if it would work somehow. I rooted my device with RootKing which was an app on my device.

It is not clear if your phone's bootloader has been unlocked or not. Rooting apps have been known to create issues with Moto G3. I tried to root my phone (which has its bootloader unlocked) with the Kingroot app. Although I could succeed and boot the device, the signals vanished. Hence I adapted the traditional way of rooting using the fastboot mode.
If you have still issues of not being able to boot your phone, then please flash stock firmware available in Factory Firmware thread of this forum (you can flash even though your bootloader is unlocked) as per details given there in. You can root your phone later. If you have an unlocked bootloader, there are other posts to guide you how to ulock the bootloader first. Please note you cannot modify software if your bootloader is locked.

new idol 3

Hi
I did got a new idol 3 today
lastest firmware where some of the fastboot cmd are unknown.
So in an efford to reenable them to get root, I did try to downgrade using the panasonic app.
but at 45% it stop and the phone is lock on the booting logo
.
I can still got in download mode which I updated with mobile upgrade Q 5.0.9
but after this it say no sim inserted...
work normaly except no phone and still not root
what are the step I should take to make my phone work again?
thanks

turn off the phone and turn it on again and wait it took about 10-15 minutes to boot.....the error at 45% is normal and all is allready flashed.

thanks for the reply
Now I got panasonic firmware on (which the sim still not working)
but I was able to install twrp.
im not sure which firmware I should install next?

With TWRP installed, you could try this custom ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/rom-6045-spb-1-0-stock-stable-fast-oc-t3392375

Hi
I did install MM from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/rom-firmware-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3398038
and supersu also from same thread it seem to work normaly.
I think I may have lost LTE radio to my provider (videotron in québec) but I don't have a data plan so not a problem
But if anyone know how to make LTE work again ill be glad to have it

Am i never going to taste Lineage OS on my verizon S5.

I am trying to root and unlock bootloader of my S5 (G900V + EMMC 15). I have followed this post
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71202995&postcount=3
but i cant get past the first step. I am on stock MM firmware. After flashing first file via odin the phone reboots but shows no display but black screen. I thought maybe its because of my MM firmware version so i tried to downgrade and flashed 5.1 firmware but...get this... the thing got stuck at verizon logo.
Now i am just frustrated if i am ever going to be able to root this thing and unlock BL
Any help for me or someone else has faced same situation before...

Someone HELP!!!

Hi all,
I'm having a nightmare of a time with my Galaxy S7... For some unknown reason I decided to root my phone about 2 months ago using CF Auto Root.. worked great.. This morning, was having bad lag issues, so I restarted the phone.. as soon as the Samsung logo came up, I got a red message at the top of the screen saying "Custom Binary locked by FRP".. kind of freaked out and booted the phone into Recovery mode.. wiped Cache and wiped phone (to go back to factory setting I guess).. restarted... since then, I had no boot.. it did loop for a while as I was trying to charge the phone.. but that's it.
Now, the only way the phone will power on is if I plug it into my computer in Download Mode. I am trying to flash the ROM, custom or stock, but Odin fails almost as soon as it starts the sboot.bin and the phone screen shows "SW REV. CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 6, BINARY: 1".. Also, When I try to power on the phone, it HAS to be plugged in to my computer or charger cable and it just loops with a message at the top of the screen.
I can't do anything with this phone and cant find any solutions online... please help! :crying:
PM me for images of all screens please

I had the some problem while playing with my handset I switched off OEM unlock for some reason under developer option..
Next time i reset my handset it stuck on that warning
You need to download combination file, flash it with odin, then unlock developer mode, toggle OEM unlock, than flash back your current firmware, or if you have full twrp back up restore it

This problem appears on the forum over and over. Its a direct result of not understanding what type of S7 you have and what you need to do before modification.
The error you have in Odin means the firmware you are trying to flash is older than the bootloader file on your device. You can never downgrade a bootloader only upgrade.
In your case you need to flash a firmware version 6 or above for your device. So if you have a branded T Mobile for example you will need to download and flash T Mobile firmware version 6 or above. The firmware must also be for your region where you live.
The FRP lock is because you didn't sign out of, or remove the Google account on the device before modification. Its a security feature. It will still appear after you've flashed firmware but as long as you know the email and password the phone will start fine.

Dammit.. I tried to put as much detail as possible in there lol.. obviously I forgot some.. My mistake the Galaxy s7 that I am using is a Rogers Mobile (Canada) SM-G930W8. As for not signing out before modification, omfg, that makes perfect sense.. didn't even think of doing that before rooting.. I appreciate the help!! I will give this a go and see what outcome I get.. Thanks!

[/COLOR]That was nice of you to respond so helpfully, despite you having seen the scenario posted over and over.

The S7 didn't receive Android 9 so the ROM is a custom one. Any issues with custom ROM's should be asked on the ROM thread itself where you got the ROM from. It's quite normal for custom ROM'S to have bugs.
You can try flashing the ROM (Android 9 Pie) again to see if it works. If not there are several different A9 ROM's to choose from.

Need help with s7 edge sm-g935v bootloop

Tried to root using a method that involved 4 odin files which I guess is most methods nowadays. Im used to old root methods were there is only one file I need to flash so I only flashed one file and it failed I don't have snapdragon chip set I don't think I googled my IMEI number and it said I didn't. Now my phone is stuck in Bootloop I tried flashing stock firmware I got from Sammobile and other sites making sure it was the latest version and it didn't work. I went into Maintenance recovery and tried factory reset it gave me the erasing screen but would still not boot up. I can still enter download mode and recovery but nothing seems to work please help.
Tried flashing ENG boot although I have no clue what it is but it made no difference. Tried also flashing TWRP I got error: SECURE CHECK FAIL: recovery. I did some research and apparently I might have a locked bootloader.
I just want to boot into my phone whatever it takes please help
Last OS update I got was either may or june
IMEI: 358166076487955

If your phone is model SM-G935V, aka Verizon, you have a Snapdragon chip. Therefore, there is no TWRP. And, depending on the bootloader version you had prior to attempting root, you might be out of luck.
What was your firmware version BEFORE you attempted root? (For example, mine is: G935VVRS4CRI1). The 5th digit from the right is the important one.

Thank you for your help but i figured it out. Finally found my specific firmware and got it to boot. the thing is I googled my IMEI and it says I dont have a snapdragon I have an exynos chipset. Did some more digging and it confirmed I had an exynos chipset. Problem is fixed though thank you for the help.

If you have Exynos then it is not a Verizon branded phone. Your phone might be working on the Verizon network, but....
Either way, thanks for the update. Glad you got it sorted.
