[Q] No OS||Stuck at bootloop

So i decided to install the CM 12 on my MotoG.I downloaded the files and followed the instructions.I wiped cache,dalvik,data and did Format System but the installation failed.So I reboot my phone only to see that it was stuck at a bootloop.I get back to TWRP and I see that there was no OS installed.I decided then to flash 4.4.4 which worked,but after rebooting i was in a bootloop with no OS once again.I installed PhilZ Touch to see what's wrong.It says that I can't mount the system and the sdcard.I've tried Sideloading,adb pushing but everything fails...Is there anything i can do?Help is much appreciated

Have you tried to flash a stock ROM via fastboot commands?

Yes nothing happened..still stuck at bootloop...

which stock rom did you try to flash using fastboot?
if it's the stock 4.4.4 it's probably going to fail, you need certain things to do (you can search around here) if you're using xt1033, you can search for (xt1033 stock) there's a guide that will get you up and going. On my moto g that has flashed stock 5.0.2 and cm12, i found out that i can't use the normal method to flash the stock 4.4.4 rom, rather i was forced to flash the 5.0.2 rom, since the fastboot command fails at almost everything, which would leave the phone unusable
oh yeah, here's the guideRESTORE TO STOCK

Nevermind.I formatted the data and it let me adb push the stock 4.4.4

[Q] SoftBootloop(?) Recovery Problem

Good Afternoon!
Here's the story:
I encrypted my phone.
I installed TWRP 2.8.6.1 Official.
I (tried) unsuccessfully to dirty-flash a ROM to fix a systems partition problem.
My phone gave me an encryption error and told me to format my phone.
I formatted my phone using TWRP and installed OxygenOS again.
My phone is now bootlooping into TWRP.
I've tried downloading OxygenOS again.
I tried formatting my phone again.
I tried a different OxygenOS Rom.
I tried CyanogenMod 12 Nightly.
Everything bootloops back to recovery.
I'm currently trying to find a Factory Image for the O+O and go back to CyanogenMod 11S to (try) and get it to just boot.
Is there anything I haven't tried? Any advice?
Thanks.

I flashed 11S via fastboot and then upgraded to a version of Cyanogenmod12.1 I found via the forums.
The stock CyanogenMod kept getting stuck in the middle. OxygenOS won't install, period.
My phone hates me.

Cannot boot into TWRP after flashing CM12.1 nightly

Hi.
Today I wanted to upgrade from CM11 to CM12.1, but I had to upgrade the bootloader first. It all worked and I'm now on bootloader version 41.18.
When I flashed the ROM it flashed in 20 seconds from an USB stick. It seemed a little to fast. When I rebooted it worked fine and I was on Android 5.1.1, but after installing SuperSU and rebooting I stuck into a bootloop.
I'm now in a bootloop and when I try to enter the recovery the TWRP splash screen comes up, but then it goes into the bootloop again.
I have the XT1032 and my TWRP version is 2.8.6.0 and I have a TWRP backup from CM11
If someone could push me in the right direction how I can access TWRP then that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Quick update
The phone now booted into TWRP, but when I do a restore to my backup the phone goes back to the bootloop. The same happens when I try to wipe.

I have the same issue, cannot get into twrp, how did you managed to boot into TWRP?

i had same issues in my moto g xt1032 i tried below CM12.1 works without issues.
go recovery --- wipe---- format data
and try step install steps like install rom zip & gapps

Ok, first what do you use to flash recovery, can you reflash recovery with the lastest TWRP version (2.8.7.0) and post back the logs here? Then tell me if you can get into recovery
Its common place that twrp cause bootloop with backups.

No problem try to
Install new twrp using fastboot mode it will be work fine

Help, MMB29Q update wipes TWRP

Hi all,
Recently I updated my Nexus 5 from Lollipop to Marshmallow 6.0.1 (MMB29Q) - latest build.
everything stock works fine but, once I flash a customer recovery, in my case TWRP it stops working...I get either a startup loop or TWRP gets erased by stock recovery.
I tried various steps ...
flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 - rebooted to boot loader was able to get into TWRP but, once I reboot system, everything works but TWRP is gone/erased and replaced by stock recovery?
Flash TWRP 2.8.7.1, then flash latest TWRP 3.0, reboot to boot loader and can get into TWRP but once i reboot into system, I am stuck on the initial boot loop.
I have to start from scratch of flashing system and boot etc to get past the loop and it still replaces TWRP with stock recovery.
I can always get into Fastboot but when I go to recovery it seems its being replaced by stock recovery.
anyone experiencing this issue? thanks for your help.

I guess I am doing something stupid but, not sure what...and thanks for your help

If you give more detail on the steps you are taking it will be easier for someone to help. Also, have you tried doing a factory reset when it bootloops?

thanks for the response..here are the details..
I had Lollipop with TWRP 2.8.7.1
yesterday, I downloaded latest build from android site...extracted all files....booted into bootloader and flashed all files..
rebooted - Marshmallow works perfectly...offcourse it not rooted yet or its locedback due to this flash
Scenario:1
So downloaded TWRP 2.8.7.1 and flashed it as recovery, no errors nothing...i rebooted to bootloader and went to recovery to confirm TWRP is there
I rebooted the system - TWRP gives option to root which I said yes so its rooted. I reboot system, this goes into bootloop - I wait for say 5-10 min in this loop mode and I see that adb can recognize the device but nothing else....its stuck in loop
when I force shut down by holding power button for few sec - and go back bootloader/recovery - TWRP is still there
***note*** I did factory wipe in TWRP but that did not fix above condition.
Scenario2:
exact same steps but after I flashed twrp2.8.7.1, I rebooted bootloader and flashed twrp 3.0 as well confirmed twrp 3.0 is flashed and rebooted system - phone start normally no issues - when I restart to bootloader - no TWRP exists, its replaced by stock recovery
Scenario 2, I tried couple of other ways and still the same thing happens - twrp 3.0 get erased.
not sure what I am doing wrong but TWRP doesn't stick
since this is my active device - i flash system.img and boot.img to get the phone to working condition
thanks for your help

OnePlus one does not go into recovery after updating it

Hello everyone, I'll tell you what happened
First I was in CM13.1, then I flashed to oxygen OS 3.1.4 custom
(When I flash the ROM, without warning me the recovery was updated to the version TWRP 3.0.3-2TugaPower, previously being in a version inferior to 2.8)
After logging in to the new recovery, I noticed that the recovery version was not on the TWRP page, so I decided to flash the most recent version of TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-bacon.img), flashe it through Android sdk (Fastboot), everything went well the pc recognized me the OPO in fastboot Mode and flashe the recovery without problems, the problem came when I try to enter the new recovery the OPO does not enter the recovery stays in the OnePlus Logo.
(Before updating the recovery I tried to restate the backup of my previous rom CM13.1 but when I was going to restart it it stays in the OnePlus logo, and when I go to recovery I fixed that in the section of "Mount" system is not checked , Active but still the same, and when I return to recovery is removed.)
I ask you if you can give me ideas to be able to have recovery again and revive my OPO plz.

I guess you didn't read the OP of Oxygen Os correctly,he clearly mentioned that this 'Tuga Power Recovery' is patched to work with Oxygen Os's firmware and one should not flash any other recovery.Now,what you can do is this,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-ikULjZZlloNHpOdVBrTzQxZzQ/view?usp=drive_web
> Download This file, install it somewhere and run Revert-2-CM.exe. Make sure you have fastboot drivers installed or it wont work.Avoid using any Antivirus program while doing this as they might give false alarms.After this you'll be restored to TWRP then you can flash any rom you want.The reason due to which you weren't able to find 'TugaPower Recovery' on TWRP page is because this is an Unofficial Recovery.

Question
What does the program do with the OPO?

If you are familiar with fastboot commands, this method should work. Had my OnePlus in the same situation last night messing around with Efidroid. Phone was bootlooping. Efidroid boot menu as well as recovery mode were both inaccessible. I had tried several other things but none worked for me. *CAUTION: this method did ERASE my userdata.* I downloaded a fastboot-able stock full firmware zip, then manually reflashed device. My beloved OnePlus is no longer my daily driver but still my fave device to experiment with so I just used COS 13.1 file. After full reboot, I downloaded and flashed official TWRP. Device is fully functional again, but without OOS installed.

It'll change your firmware and alter your recovery to a functional TWRP.You'll lose Oxygen Os after doing this.Though you can use this anytime when not being able to flash TWRP.

What should i do
Thanks a lot thanks to the method you told me my OPO has recovery again really thanks, but I have a question, I still in the TugaPower recovery, should I flash the stock recovery or the newest version of TWRP?
Because I do not know if flashing again the TWRP will happen the same
