Hi guys, I did something really dumb and I can't seem to learn from my mistakes. Basically I rooted my 1+ with TWRP recovery. Everything was going great until I get these really bad lags. So I decided to do a factory reset but it didn't work! It booted me into TWRP recovery every time I tried to do that. So this is where the stupid mistakes begin. I wiped everything, I mean everything while I was in TWRP, without any backups. Now I get this message in TWRP "No OS installed" and my phone is stuck in the 1+ loading screen. I have tried doing a fastboot oem flash stock recovery but that didn't work. It said that my "device is not unlock, cannot flash or erase." I also have tried flasing 25R in TWRP, it said successful, but when I go to reboot, it still give me the message "No OS installed." I tried doing adb sideload, but i'm not quite familiar with that. It gave me some error in cmd prompt. Is there anything else I can try to fix this issue? Sorry, I am such a noob at this.
******************************* FIXED
In my last attempt before I give up on this phone, I downloaded all the ROMs I came across and flashed them through TWRP. All the one's I tried did not work but it finally work with the last one. I don't know how or what happened there but I'm glad it work again!
**tears of joy
Can you please tell us what rom you used? Thank you
I did a factory image install of the latest from nVidia then let it update to 5.01. Made sure it was unlocked, put CWM on it, was able to go from bootloader into CWM, installed SuperSU, rebooted. No root. Went into recovery ... and it's the stock recovery ("No command"). Tried this multiple times in multiple ways and no matter what happens, once it boots into the system, CWM is gone.
Is this something I've done wrong or is this something to do with 5.01? I don't understand how it can be the latter given that I'm not seeing anyone else with this problem. Help!
Solved
Okay, I am an idiot. The problem is that I wasn't using the beta SuperSU (BETA-SuperSU-v2.42.zip) which is needed for Lollipop if you're not using a custom boot.img. I was doing neither.

Hello guys,
I have a problem, I hope you can help me with.
I used to have an EOS ROM. I decided to do factory reset and thats when my problems started. It didn't boot up anymore. After entering recovery I noticed it couldn't mount System partition. I tried reinstalling the ROM, but no success. Everytime I entered recovery, the System checkbox wasnt marked. So I decided to go back to stock, using http://androidforums.com/threads/return-your-xoom-to-stock.653230/. Now it is stuck at Logo screen and can't enter Recovery. (Goes to Reading ODM fuse, but not any further). I can still enter Fastboot and my laptop detects the tablet, when hooked up to it.
Please help me push the Recovery, cuz I'm getting "device not found" from ADB. I'm kinda lost here... Any help would be appreciated!
Update
I managed to install TWRP, but still can't mount System Partition. On wipe I get "Failed"when trying to clean the system part. I have tried Clockwork, it didn't help either.
Cmon guys! I don't want to JTAG it yet.

I am not very knowledgable about flashing, but one suggestion has come to my mind: if you can now get into TWRP (it wasn't clear whether you could based on your last post), try flashing a ROM without trying to clean the system partition. Just make sure the ROM matches the TWRP (i.e., big part ROM with big part TWRP).
Oh - another thought - folks in a number of threads have stated you need to explicitly follow both the recovery and ROM instructions for the XOOM. If you miss a step, people have had issues.
Just got my XT1644 G4 Plus 16GB here in America and brought it home for some testing.
Everything was a piece of cake, I did these things in order with no issues. There are other guides for these things all over XDA so I won't be giving detailed instructions.
Unlocked the bootloader here - https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
Installed TWRP from here. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...p-twrp-3-0-2-2-recovery-moto-g4-plus-t3386586
And flashed SuperSU from here - https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
When TWRP first boots it will ask if you want to run in systemless mode. Make sure you tell it YES!!!
Rebooted on the first try with no issues.
I have Xposed installed with a few modules and it works great.

Can anyone get me a stock boot.img i seemed to have messed up my adb protocol on the phone and my computer will no longer allow it to give me an RSA key prompt. The method worked for me though.

Can extract it from the stock ROM here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242687085
not sure if this is full proof i got bootloop
After flashing SuperSu 2.76 the phone is stuck forever at the "moto" logo. Is it because I'm using such a new version of SuperSu? Why do you use 2.46?
How long did it take to get the unlock code? I am waiting for a couple hours now...
LE: 4 hours... and finally I got the code.
Just got XT1644.
Unlocked bootloader with no problem.
Installed TWRP 3.0.2-0 with no problem
Installed SuperSu 2.46 in read only mode.
Stuck at moto screen.
Any help would be appreciated.

Nevermind. Followed steps 5-8 of this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/root-systemless-rooting-supersu-2-74-2-t3405772 and all is well.
I can't get twrp to install. I keep getting told that the image is not signed or corrupt
First unlock Bootloader.
You don't need to install TWRP, just boot into it so you can flash the Systemless SuperSU.

that's just it... I can't boot to twrp. It's not there.
Where? You can't find it on the SD by browsing in the recovery?
because that's just it, there's nothing in recovery. This has gotten so convoluted that I don't even know what I'm supposed to have where....
@davidkoby
Stock ROM Recovery starts with a "Dead Android" and "no command" written under it, it is you see or something else?
Does supersu need to be in systemless mode?

Hi Bro,
I was also stuck at the moto logo screen and then I followed steps from 5-8, (where I see the superSu file is of different version), and now my phone is not booting at all, normally. I can boot in to bootloader but not normal boot is happening, I cannot even switch on my phone. I am a bit scared. Can you please assist.

Assuming you have XT1644, stock marshmallow ROM and TWRP recovery installed, maybe boot into recovery and double check that the .supersu file you created is in the data directory (step 6) through file manager. If it's there maybe flash the supersu zip file in OP since that is the version that worked for me. If neither works maybe factory reset in recovery and flash the correct supersu zip and try again. Failing all that, you may have to completely start over and reflash the ROM. My guess is creating the .supersu file wasn't done correctly or the incorrect version of the supersu zip is causing the problem.

Ok yes I have XT1644 (any way to confirm BTW), I also have TWRP recovery installed (thats how I took the backup)m BUT, I was not on stock marshmallow, I was on nougat (Stock), The phone did an OTA update, months ago. Could that be the reason.
Also I checked .supersu file was there via file manager. What do you advice ..??? I also have tried now with SR3-SuperSU v2.79, but same result, it get stuck at Moto Boot screen.
Another thing I noticed at the screen where it says "Your phone is unlocked and cant be trusted" and it will boot in 5 seconds, in front of ID it says BAD KEY ... wonder what that means or if it has something to do with what wrong has happened.
Appreciate your assistance here.
Regards
Sammy

Hmmmm...I don't know if you have XT1644. Most who have that version are still waiting on OTA I think and certainly didn't get it month's ago. It is the G4 Plus North American version. If you still have the box it will be on the UPC label. It will also be in your phone info in settings once your phone works again. Did your phone work fine before you tried to root it? Anyway, Nougat will not root with this method. If you can boot into recovery, try factory reset. If that doesn't work, you're going to have to reflash the Nougat ROM...make sure you get the right one for your phone. You will need to search around on this forum for instructions and which download to get, etc. Once you have Nougat up and running again, you will need to leave it unrooted or use one of the proven methods of root. Again, I don't think systemless supersu works for Nougat. I have no idea what bad key means. The only thing I've ever had is "N/A" come up in the unlock warning. Incidentally, you can get rid of the bootloader warning screen if you want to.
Hello all, this is my first post so I apologize if anything isn't right.
I recently flashed my Mate 9 to stock Nougat B19x through a method I found on this site and then decided I wanted root. Bootloader was already unlocked so I flashed TWRP and then tried to flash a couple different root methods that all failed... So I factory reset through TWRP and tried again but they still failed so on the initial boot everything worked except the screen was blank except for the soft keys. I rebooted and the same again so I put it in fastboot and tried to re-install Nougat through the same method that worked before. It went through the whole process seemingly fine and finished with 'Update should start automatically' but then the phone boot into error mode. I've looked through everything I can find here and done everything I can think of myself but nothing has worked. I can boot into to fasboot but nothing else, not even after flashing any recoveries or stock images extracted from UPDATE.app.
Func no is 14 and error no is 1.
It's a MHA-L09 and I really need to fix it as I can't really afford anything else right now. Any help would be really appreciated and I'm happy to add more info if I've missed anything.
Thanks guys!!!
BUMP
Sorry if it's not very concise, just really need help!
What commands are you using to flash the stock files?

Standard fastboot flash recovery/system/boot
Not sure if I'm flashing all the right files or if huawei needs different commands.
Follow this guide.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
Thanks for your help. That's the one that I used in the first place but everytime I try again, TWRP either doesn't flash even though it says success or I can't get into recovery.
Everytime I try to access recovery using the hardware keys it boots to error mode so is there another way??
I've been looking into this some more and have found it could be a motherboard issue. Is this correct? And if so how much would that kind of repair cost and would it even be possible considering I've unlocked the bootloader?
Thanks again.
