Hi everyone.
Need some help. I have Moto G 3rd gen phone, which I was trying to root. After unlocking the bootloader and installing custom recovery (TWRP), i flashed SuperSU .zip file and restared the phone. I phone was stuck on bootloop, and if I tried to enter recovery, it gave an error "no coomand found'. I installed CWM and Phil'z recovery, and still the same error was there. Then i permanently flashed TWRP via adb, then i was able to enter recovery. Now, I tried to flash several other ROMs but it is still stuck on bootloop. Can anyone tell me which ROM shall i flash, and from where to get it? And/or, is there any other problem?
Thanks in advance.

This is the forum for the 2013 Moto G. So, make sure you only flash recoveries and roms which suit your device. You can find more info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g
Where did you get philz recovery for moto g3? (I don't know so asked).
Okay so have you flashed twrp correctly by issuing command-
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
You have to immediately boot into recovery once to prevent the stock one from being replaced.
And you can get the roms from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/development
And
http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/orig-development.
Make sure to have a handy full nandroid backup before trying anything.
To root, download latest supersu 2.76 from here (links in op)-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053.
@Hwyl.Fawr : This thread is indeed on moto g 2015 section and not in 2013 section and he is also asking about osprey and not falcon. .
Broadcasted from Zeta Reticuli
I believe your problem is you flashed an incompatible SuperSU.
At this point if you made a backup first all you need to do is restore it.
If you did not make a backup, you need to wipe system, data, and caches and flash a ROM

Sure, it was moved. Initially i came across it in the falcon section so i assumed the OPs problems might be due to flashing some falcon stuff to osprey

Hey guys, I've successfully unlocked the bootloader on my XT1040 running android 4.4.4
The problem is I cannot seem to get TWRP or CWM recovery to work.
I've flashed:
openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-xt1032
recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-falcon
TWRP-2.7.0.0-falcon
twrp-2.7.1.0-peregrine-201407161845
and every time I select recovery it says
"no command"
so I hold volume up for 10-15 seconds and then tap power and I get the menu no problem
then I try to flash SuperSU and I get an error "installation aborted"
I can't seem to get to TWRP or CWM recovery.
What am I doing wrong here?
I get the exact same thing on my Moto G LTE (xt1040)
There is a tutorial, if you google Moto g lte root. It will help you fastboot the TWRP (twrp-2.7.1.0-peregrine-201407161845.img is what I used)
And from there DONT REBOOT from your fresh recovery install because it will be gone. Flash the SU Zip and install root.
After that, reboot and you'll have root access but if you try to enter recovery it will give you NO COMMAND.
That's all I could figure out for now.
Ill try and walk you through this how I did it:
....haha actually let me just like the XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/newb-friendly-guide-to-rooting-moto-g-t2793895
If anyone else knows of a working recovery pls let me know :\
am i blind?
Thank you so much, I figured out how to get TWRP recovery to work. Only problem is, I wiped the whole damn phone, (I was trying to put the Moto G CyanogenMod 11)
Now I have to find the damn firmware to put it back on, Guess i was tired and stupid when i wiped the whole damn thing instead of the cache. Firmware i'm looking for if anyone has it is for Fido 4.4.4

Im just trying to help because I've lost hours searching by working recoveries.
hi there
i already flashed a few phones over the last years so im not new to flashing but i never made it behind casual using custom roms.
so today i decided to flash my moto g (3g, 2012, single sim, european version) with the resurrection remix rom and gapps. before, i unlocked the bootloader via motorolas homepage (i now have the warning sign when booting up)
i followed the install instruction in resurrection remix thread and wiped my devies, flashed the rom, flashed gapps.
so somehow i ended up with a bootloop (resurrection remix logo) after flashing the zips via CWM and couldnt do anything about it.
i couldnt reboot into CWM recovery so i tried to use trwp falcon recovery and wiped everything.
i tried to install the custom rom again but it wont work. also i downloaded a stock firmware from the developers section but it didnt work either.
fastboot commands work for me, but adb doesnt (device not found) i already reinstalled motorola and adb universal drivers..
so basically im stuck at the bootloader menu. via fastboot boot recovery.img i can boot up to twrp recovery. i can't mount my devices system. i tried to install zips to my sd but it didnt work out (adb sideload doesnt work because device not found). i tried to mfastboot flash the stock in every single step (.xml.zip style) but im stuck at mfastboot flash boot boot.img (bootloader denies permission) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219)
im now searching for a solution for about 6 hours (its 0600 am now) and im really frustrated.
please help me, i was never stuck in such a situation ever before
how can i fix it?
I'm with virtually the same issue.
Difference I can ADB the device. I even sideloaded others ROM but couldn't pass the boot.
Any help would be thanked.
today i managed to flash a brazil stockrom via "how to unbrick..." so i fixed my problem
but then
i tried flashing resurrection remix again (and crdroid)
i keep getting a boot loop
i dont know what im doing wrong
Hi all. I own a Moto G xt1032 UK version. (GSM right?)
I was on 4.4.4 Epsilon ROM but I wanted to flash stock 4.4.4, so I used a tutorial I found on youtube that set me up to stock 4.4.2, then I upgraded to 4.4.4 and THEN there was another update to 5.0.1. So as you can guess, I upgraded to lollipop and that was it - bootloop. I have tried flashing other roms through fastboot and nothing worked, I get an error when I flash ''system'' that says ''image is too large'' once all is done, phone restarts and its stuck on bootloop once again. The bootlogo changes when I flash different rom etc. But I don't know what to do, any ideas? :/ I have also tried to flash a custom recovery and sideload the Epsilon ROM but I only get an error in my command line that says no device connected after I hit the command. Any suggestions guys? I appreciate any sort of help, thanks guys.
I'll also add that I think I have the 41.18 bootloader if it helps (it says so in the bootloader settings)
When flashing a ROM in fastboot, are you also flashing the gpt file?
Yeah. I flash everything there's to flash as all tutorials instruct.
To try and get your phone up and running, flash a custom recovery from fastboot. Once the recovery image has been flashed, use the phone's volume buttons to boot into recovery. If you can get into recovery, try and flash a custom ROM.
Ah, I forgot to add. When I attempt to flash anything from my storage it says some sort of error coun't mount /sdcard and others when the recovery opens up. I tried flashing other recoveries, TWRP, CWM both show the exact same errors..Can't mount SDcard etc. :/ That is why I tried the sideload method which didn't work for me either.
You're flashing recovery for the falcon?
Yes..for falcon. I've done it a bunch of times before, however I never had the unable to mount error in the recovery..
I don't have my moto g on me but I found Philz Touch (based on CWM) worked besr for me after i switched back from GPE to CM12. I was getting weird error messages in TWRP.
I own a moto g xt 1033 and installed cyaonogem mod 13, I used to recovery twrp,but he did not quit the cyaonogemmod robot image, then restarted and tried to reinstall the android back , but when the device will start it appears the image of the unlocked bootloader and restarts and it becomes infinite.
when I try to clear system cache, the TWRP error , it seems the TWRP is corrupted , what can be ?
If anyone can help me I can post a video on youtube showing defects
What TWRP version are you using? What were the steps you took to install CM and the stock ROM? What was the error that TWRP gave you?

To get the phone working again, I would suggest flashing latest 5.1 version of these factory firmware images (for your exact device model) through fastboot.
To flash CM13, try using TWRP 3.0.2-0, and the latest CM13 snapshot. Note that the first boot of Cyanogenmod can take a long time (20+ minutes).

Hi everyone. I'd appreciate it if I got some help fixing my Moto G as it's been gathering dust ever since I couldn't boot into the recovery and stuck in the bootloader. I accidentally deleted the OS and when I try to install the stock rom, it just goes straight back to the bootloader. I really want to get this phone working again. When I try installing a recovery, it says "Mismatched Partition Size". It's the same with TWRP and CWM. My goal is to revert back to the stock ROM, which is 4.4.4 Boost Mobile. Manually flashing the ROM in sequences didn't work.
If any of you can, please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Anyone flashing a custom recovery on Falcon gets this same error. Ignore it. Your issue is something else.

Solved: I had to update the bootloader first.
I've been getting the same recovery partition size doesn't match error. I've tried TWRP 3.0.0.0.2 and 3.0.0.0 for falcon and get this error with both. I've rooted HTC, Sony Xperia and Nexus devices before without any problems.
The previous poster said he updated the (I'm guessing Motorola) bootloader. Where and how do I find this update.
My bootloader is: 41.1A (sha-80481ae, 2015-04-10 14:30:20) The phone is a 1st gen Moto G 1GB/16GB.

41.1A is the latest available bootloader
and the error of the mismatched partition can be ignored, just reboot to twrp after you flashed it and it will be fine
Just tried to reboot into TWRP, but I got the robot with a red triangle and 'no command'.
I'll try reflashing TWRP and report back later

After you flashed twrp, don't reboot using fastboot command, just power down using the power button and boot to twrp using the power+volume down button. Just try that and see if it successfull.
I had same issue, after HOURS i found out why, thanks to this guide:
http://www.droidthunder.com/root-install-twrp-recovery-moto-g-2013/
ALL OTHERS guide i read, included the istruction on twrp site itself, was wrong.
after you use fastboot to flash twrp, you must NOT restart, but simply:
After successfully installing the TWRP recovery, on your phone (in fastboot mode) go to the Recovery option by pressing volume down button and then press volume up button to select it.

like this, FINALLY, my motog loaded the twrp.
