Necessary Stuff:
Riff BOX JTAG drivers + Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider / Mirror
Motorola Drivers (link okay)
New Blankflash files / Mirror (thanks again, ilikered)
Motorola Fastboot / Mirror
Flash5.1.bat.zip / Mirror - Updated 09/06/2016
Logo.bin replacement for unlocked bootloader / Mirror
Moto G (1st Gen) Factory Firmware Images
Procedure
If your Moto G is recognized as "Qualcomm HS-USB QLoader 9008" jump to step 11.
Extract Riff BOX drivers into a folder (you will find both 32bit and 64bit versions).
Open dseo13b.exe and choose "Sign a System File"
Follow the program instructions and write manually the path of qcusbser.sys
The program will ask a reboot.
While starting reboot press F8 until you get some voices, then choice "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement" (otherwise try some tricks from here
Click Windows Start button and write "devmgmt.msc" without quotes
From Device Manager window go on "qhsusb_bulk" (if not shown unplug and plug again your Moto G or long press the power button)
Choose "Update Driver Software"
Choose the manually way and put the path of your previously extracted and signed drivers.
Your Moto G is now recognized as "Qualcomm HS-USB QLoader 9008" under Ports (COM & LPT).
Don't disconnect the phone from PC
Extract the blankflash zip into the Desktop
Enter into the blankflash folder and double click on the bat file
Device unbricked!
Let your phone on charge at least for 2 hours on pc, not on wall charger (until you see battery ok instead "low battery")
Extract the rom downloaded previously into a folder that you will protect as your life
Put the Flash5.1 bat file (Included into the Flash5.1 Zip downloaded) and mfastboot files into Rom Folder
(Optional) Replace logo.bin into Rom Folder within the one on Bootlogo.zip
After 2 hours try a reboot (cmd -> mfastboot reboot) and check if it's okay, the battery; otherwise wait another hour.
When your phone shows battery as "okay", you can continue
Go into rom folder
Double click on flash5.1.bat
Press enter when phone complete the reboot on bootloader mode
Wait while cmd do the tasks!
Press enter (again) when asked
Choose it with volume up "normal boot"
Enjoy your Moto G 2013 Back to life!
In case your phone doesn't go on bootloader mode or do weird things:
By @hakneo :
If anyone is not able to connect as Moto Mfastboot mode driver and your battery is not charging through USB as told in guide, this may help.
1. Start up the device manager. Uninstall any UNKNOWN Moto devices.
2. Remove the device cable and Uninstall Motorola Driver software.
3. Restart the PC in normal mode and reinstall the Moto Driver suite.
4. Hold the down volume and connect the cable. Now Windows should install it and your phone will start charging.
Go ahead with the flash.
Note: If you get a bootloop, go back into bootloader mode with phone connected at pc and use again the bat file
Every thanks is appreciated, if this procedure helped you

Thanks for making the guide!! Great job!!

Now its my turn to bring back my moto G life

Atrix 4G/ Atrix HD /Atrix 2 what's yours ?
you have to flash a stock .sbf file/rom
Identify your device model and post in right thread find it from Menu choose Devices by OS or Manufacturer
post here if I can help.. at least post here details how you solved that !
to flash a stock ROM you have to do something like that
1. install RSDLite and driver package
2. Power down your phone
3. On your phone hold vol up (??) and power till you see RSD at the top of the screen
4. Launch RSDLite on PC
5. Load SBF file
6. Plug your device into your computer RSDLite should recognize your phone right away if you installed the drivers
7. Press the “Start” button
8. it takes a while...will reboot a couple times (??)

Blu Life One XL (2015 - Build KTU84P) Root And TWRP Recovery Auto-Install

Root & TWRP Recovery For The Life One XL
Those of you who have the Life One XL who have been looking to root it and install TWRP custom recovery now have an automated method to achieve root and install TWRP on this phone.
I have put together an auto-install script that will root your Life One XL and flash TWRP recovery onto it in Linux.
Requirements:
You must have both the ADB and FASTBOOT utilities on your computer and in your path.
You must have enabled USB DEBUGGING on your Life One XL phone.
Instructions:
Download this file --> Life One XL Auto-Root & TWRP Install For Linux
Open a terminal window on your Linux computer;
cd to the directory where you extracted the zip file;
Connect your Life One XL to your computer;
Type the command "./root-life-one-xl.sh" <ENTER> in the terminal window;
Sit back and follow the prompts.
Once you are finished, you will have a rooted Life One XL with the TWRP custom recovery installed on it. There are a few custom ROM's available for it -- none of which I have tried personally -- but you will be ready to install them if you choose. You can check the "Official Thread" for more information.
*** I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED PHONES. THE USE OF THIS FILE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. ***
I have the Blu Life One (not the XL). Will this work on that one? Also, do you a method for Windows pc's?

Check your build number, and see if you have the MediaTek processor. This is designed for the Qualcomm based phone, with build number KTU84P.
I have this phone. it was already rooted and my daughter made the mistake of trying to do the over the air update. The phone has been stuck in android system recovery ever since (2 months).
I have located a repair suite, which appears to be from BLU. Unfortunately I can not get the phone into download mode, so I can't connect the computer to connect to the phone.

Hi 22350.
You help me a lot with that file. I was able to recover my phone back from the recovery mode loop.
Just for the knowledge, the loop appears if someone has his phone rooted and apply the Blu company update.
I have to erase the link because i need to have at least 10 post to use external links. But you can find it in this place.

Do everything the instructions tell you to... Before you hit the "download" button... Simply power off the device... Leave it powered off connect USB... And hit download button WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE ... Worked like a champ for me.

I've been able to get in DL mode by doing the following:
from the Black and white Boot Logo... hold the power +vol up key until it cycles... once it cycles switch to the power + Vol Down Key... Viola! DL Mode...
Not entirely true what stated in the above ...but if you play with it you'll realize Im close you only have to hold either or... To be noted... You can flash the phone from the diagnostic menu as well... Having the device powered off doesnt always work... Having it in diagnostic mode has worked 100% of the time.
I've been tinkering in my spare time... And have bricked this phone a time or dozen or two... But it's still kicking... And you can flash from lollipop back to kk...

from the Black and white Boot Logo... hold the power +vol up key until it cycles... once it cycles switch to the power + Vol Down Key... Viola! DL Mode...

Click to collapse
The Download mode, its easy to enter... only with the app stay running and ready to upload the rom and drivers installed, you must power off the phone and connect it to the computer... when you connect the phone the computer says new device detected installing drivers... and then the button to start the recovery become enable to put the stock rom...

How to fix MOTO G7 / xt1962-1 stuck in Bootloader (stuck in fastboot) unable to boot

I do not have 10 posts yet, remove underscores from urls. I will edit this when I have 10 posts, I'm sorry for the slight inconvience.
Hi, new here! I recently acquired a Motorola G7 (xt1962-1/river_amz) from my sister. The device did not boot. It mentioned that the device did not start-up successfully, something in relation to slot/a and slot/b, and that I needed to utilize a Software Repair Assistant.
Non-Verizon devices cannot utilize this Software Repair Assistant, I tried and it hung at Processing Device Info. For Non-Verizon devices there's a piece of software called Lenovo MOTO Smart Assistant which can be found: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds101291
This option did not work for me as the Bootloader did not for some reason allow the device to overwrite some of the content (permission was denied device side.)
The MOTO Smart assistant was good for downloading the devices software. So you do the following:
Download and install the smart assistant software
Click the flash option and then the rescue option
Click moto phone
Select moto g (7th gen)
Select xt1962-1 and then next to target and firmware name there's a download button press that and the firmware will start downloading
You can follow the onscreen instructions for that program, like I said however, it didn't work for me so I'm just going to tell you the steps I went through to get the device working. If you have other solutions, I, as well as the rest of the MOTO G7 users will be happy to hear what worked for you I'm sure.
I tried downloading the files from /moto-g7/development/moto-g7-river-xt1962-1-firmware-29-114-t3913673 on this site and flashing those with some of the below mentioned methods but, no dice.
The default firmware download directory is C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles btw.
I didn't want to fuss with trying to get RSDlite working on Windows 10. I found that an older PC with a 32-bit install of Windows 7 was far easier to manage, so, that's what I went with.
To follow what I did:
Download RSDlite 6.2.4 from rootjunky's site via: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Android Programs
Download 32-bit drivers from: http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Android Drivers/Motorola if LMSA did not install them already
Copy the firmware folder to your desktop or somewhere easy to work from
Ensure your device is in bootloader mode
Open RSDlite and your device should be detected
Select the firmware folder and open flashfile.xml with RSDlite and press start
Let the process finish and don't interupt or you will have to do it all over again
The phone should boot, you will more than likely have to sign into an google account that's already been in use on that device (due to FRP)
You can also use the XML to BAT method, that didn't work for me (remote permission denied/device side)
I hope this helps some people who struggled like I did. Also, sorry if some things are badly worded if at all. I'm autistic and have trouble explaining and expressing things.
Check out my stock resources thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g7/development/riveramz-stock-resources-t3917937/
Worked perfectly!
Thanks! I had the same issue (my wife's Moto G7 stuck at the bootloader) and was able to follow your directions, so much appreciated.
The only change I made was to follow the directions at this video (go to youtube/watch?v=njXQYn53SPc) to perform the XML to BAT instead of using RSDlite (since I was on Windows 10).
It worked perfectly and fixed the issue--and the great thing was that by converting the servicefile.xml instead of flashfile.xml, I was able to retain all the data on the phone.
The overall sequence of steps (listed in detail, since this was my first time flashing. Remove underscores from URLs):
Download Lenovo Assistant from your link
In Lenovo Assistant, go to Flash, then Rescue, then select model of phone. Click to download the firmware (but do not actually click the "rescue" button).
Download Google's Platform Tools (to get fastboot and ADB)
Make a folder to hold everything (called "flash")
Copy the downloaded firmware folder from C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles to flash folder. Copy the fastboot, adb, and adb dll's from the Platform Tools to the firmware folder (per the video).
Copy and edit commands from servicefile.xml to a new servicefile.bat, as described in the video. Place this file in the firmware folder.
Run batch file in command prompt from the firmware folder.
That got the phone running again, with all data intact.
Thank you so much, worked like a charm.
Mine doesn't seem to have any partitions anymore. All my phone does is fast boot mode. And it won't let me flash anything... Please [email protected]

May need to use a
Loader file or blankflash
See

I followed sd86's guide and used servicefile.xml instead of flashfile.xml, as suggested by chi2.
No problems whatsoever installing RSDlite 6.2.4 on Windows 10 x64 (1909). The drivers were installed by LMSA and I have no idea why you guys said it was difficult.
Just for the record, my phone is a Motorola G7 (xt1962-4), that out of thin air started showing the following message:
start up failed
your device didn't start up successfully.
use the software repair assistant on computer
to repair your device
connect your device to your computer to get
the software repair assistant.
AP fastboot flash mode (secure)
no bootable a/b slot
failed to boot Linus.falling back to fastboot
Fastboot reason: fall-through from normal boot mode
USB connected

When slot A is active and you flash Lineage OS using TWRP, it writes to slot B and switches to slot B.
When you reboot, you cannot boot anymore, because on slot B there is no bootloader.
To mitigate this issue, you have to flash a "copypartitions" zip before rebooting.
My phone also was in 9008 mode and I revived my Moto G7 using the blankflash method, see here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...reteu-t4020263
I can also confirm saving my Hard bricked, non booting black screen, no life moto g7 with the above blank flash app from above link. then i used the lenovo recovery program to put the original rom back on the phone downloadable here: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds101291
if you have a black screen hard brick, no life but windows 10 sees it at an unknown or 9008 device then you can bring your moto g7 back to life again. follow all the above links and youre good!
I don't have a Windows 10 PC...plus, if I screw up my phone, I'll catch hell from the wife...lol
SO...that being said, if someone has an XT1962-6 'River' RETIN phone running Android 10 w/June Sec. Patch....I'd be willing to 'donate' to their paypal for a copy of my phones fw! Anyone interested plz pm me. Thx!
Good day, your post was very useful for me, bring back my phone, Im very grateful, thanks, sorry for my english
switch off your phones and connect usb.
first install drives to your pc by searching where to find device drivers motorola
then download lenovo smart assistant and press rescue
Hi. Im new here too. Well been for a while just my second post and the first time iv actually been able to flash a rom. I have the same problem. No bootable slots. I know exactly what i did wrong. I knew it the moment i hit the reboot button. However, i run zorin 15 on my pc and the levono assistant don't support linux. Anyone know where i can acquire the assistant running linux? Greatly appreciated in advance.
Thank you very much sd86 and chi2 for your research and help
Sadly my phone can't boot after flashing clean OS
I don't want to erase UserData partition, but it seems error is there (as it's only left partition untouched).
As I still would like to keep my data (this is the most important thing on our mobile devices) the only one hope is to unlock bootloader, flash recovery partition (eg. with TWRP) and then perform a backup from recovery software.
