Hey guys. I can't seem to get into Recovery on my XT925 for the life of me.
From power off, I press Power + Vol Up to get the boot selection screen, select "recovery" from the list, and the phone reboots into the OS.
I've flashed both CWM and TWRP recoveries. Different versions of each too. But every time I hit "Recovery" it loads the OS and I can't flash any ROMS.
Another weird thing. When I'm in Fastboot and enter "fastboot reboot-bootloader" it just reboots into Fastboot again.
Can anyone help?
i dont know what the problem is but you could try downloading rom manager, it has an option to reboot into recovery, and see what happens.

I'm having the same problem. I unlocked my bootloader, rooted my 4.1.2 stock rom, installed ROM Manager, flashed the recovery, and when it goes into Recovery, I get an Android with it's belly open, and a red triangle with an exclamation mark inside it. It stays there 1 minute, and it boots. I've tried everything. Any help is appreciated.

That screen is your stock recovery. Hold vol+ and tap pwr at the same time and you'll boot into recovery. Also, after you install the recovery, you need to immediately boot into it so the update binary can complete. Otherwise, your stock recovery will over ride. Honestly, it's just easier to flash a recovery in fastboot. That's the option I've used every time.

I flashed the recovery, booted into Recovery from ROM Manager, but I get the same screen, and no key combination is able to get me into recovery.
I'm actually trying to install CyanogenMod. I downloaded cm-10.1.3-xt925.zip and gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip. To flash it through fastboot, every example uses an IMG file, not the zip file. To flash it through fastboot, should I unzip cm-10.1.3-xt925.zip and flash the boot.img inside it? Or just rename .zip from .img?

Sweet! Good to see you got it to work. I'm not sure why, but ROM manager doesn't always seem to work.
I'm not able to enter in recovery mode using key combination pwr + vol key up and down (pressed simultaneously).
I'm only able to do this using CMW manager (Reboot into recovery). I've flash (using fastboot) recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.4-xt925.img, but it not accessible using key combination and relative menu (If the menu choose to boot into recovery mode, it start full boot and go into OS).
I've flashed CM10, but for access to recovery i've used CMW manager. I want to have the opportunity to enter directly into recovery in case of bad flash.
Where I'm wrong?
Thanks a lot

So you get the : normal pwr, rec, & etc list but when you scroll vol down & then vol up to select the recovery it boot normal?
I use : all keys hold till screen out. Then while keeping on both vol toggle pwr off , on & off. Boot menu list.
If that fails, post your sequence of events.

OK. So. This is the sequence:
1. Power key + Vol UP and DOWN pressed at the same time i'm able to show menu with "Recovery" option into list (others are AP Fastboot, Normal PWR, ecc)
2. Using Vol UP/DOWN key i go to Recovery option end press Power key
..phone start normally...not into recovery. I'm able to start recovery only using CWM manger or ADB.
My current recovery is ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.4.4
Thanks

You are not reading!
Final action vol up to select!
Tougher than stock recovery! I guess the bootloader engineers never used their own recovery.

Nope! To get into recovery mode (at least for the BLU Advance 4.0L A010U) you do the following:
1. Press (and keep holding) the Volume button in the middle so that both UP and DOWN are simultaneously pressed
2. Press (and keep holding) the Power button until you see on the screen two white lines saying:
Recovery Mode: Volume Up
Factory Mode: Volume Down
3. Press Volume UP once (do not hold). The intro logo "BLU Bold like us" will show up for a few seconds. Then you will see a black screen with a dead android, its belly open, a red exclamation mark and a line of white letters below saying:
No command
4. Press once the power button.
You are now in system recovery mode: Use Volume Up/Volume Down to select what you want to do and use the menu button on the lower-left to enter that command.
I need NVRAM file for my BLU Advance L A010. I now have invalid IMEI and I think it's because the phone was formatted but they never reflashed the entire ROM, just system, recovery, boot etc. So phone boots up fine but no nvram is present. If I could get nvram file for this phone, I can update the IMEI using MTK Engineering.
Can anyone help? Or does anyone know where I can get the complete stock ROM for this device. Most stock BLU ROMs posted online only provide the basic images needed to recover the device.

If you are using the stock recovery, it will happen every time when u want to boot your phone into recovery mode. for that you just need to press the home key for options, and to select option press the menu key.

just press the home key when you get the android symbol with exclemation sign... It seems you are using stock recovery because CWM or TWRP recoveries does not show these type of symbols..
Use MobileUncle Tools. You can directly boot to recovery from that app.

Okay so after doing a couple days research and listening to you guys, I found out when I rooted I didn't flash a recovery... So yeah I installed CWM recovery and then wiped cashe partision and it worked. When I wiped it, it came up saying to "fix root" as I may have lost in then I clicked yes then booted straight away. That's it fixed now.
Thank you for your help everyone!

When the phone is rebooting, press and hold power down, you'll then get into Fastboot. From there, go to Recovery using the volume down key and when selected, press the volume up to select. If it tries to install the update again, don't let it reboot into the ROM - when the recovery restarts itself, make sure you hold volume down again.

It doesn't work it just keeps rebooting and coming up with the "bootloader unlocked" screen after itself
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to SELECT
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL DOWN key, then tap and release the VOL UP key.
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 5, try a force reboot by pressing the power Key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to wipe cache partition and the POWER Key to SELECT this option.
8. The device will then perform the partition wipe
9. Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
11. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .

Still none the wiser how to update to 4.4.4 though! I mean surely with a rooted phone there is an app to do it these days???
u can try this
if you have unlock bootloader and can go to fastboot mode,.try to flash your moto g using your 4.4.2 stock rom by manually (you can search how to do it),.flash partition gpt and motoboot (ignore the error),reboot bootloader and finished the rest command..flash phil touch recovery and reboot ro recovery,go to install zip,choose install zip from sideload then send your phone update using sideload command.
that"s solved my problems when i'm getting stuck on blank screen after unlock bootloader warning or only booting to recovery,i'm on 4.4.2 when get that error.
but now in my case,i should go to fastboot mode and choose normal powerup to make my phone booting normally,.because if i'm power on using power button,moto g booting to recovery,not a big deal for me as long as my phone back to the track hehehe
my moto g is o2 germany,but i'm flashing with 4.4.2 germany retail and 4.4.4 update for germany retail.
