I recently flashed my Moto G to stock android from a custom ROM, and now my device does not fully boot up. After showing the boot animation it just shows "starting services" for about a minute then shuts itself off. Whenever I try to reinstall the ROM and flash the partition, this is what it tells me
C:\Users\Kyle\Desktop\AndroidSDK\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030\sdk\platform-tools>mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.040s]
writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.390s
Is there any way this can be fixed or is my device potentially bricked? Any help would be appreciated

The safest thing would be to flash a custom recovery and then a ROM zip.
TWRP custom Recovery: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934553450
Stock KitKat ROM zips: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-rom-collection-t2854688
Stock Lollipop ROM zips: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3017510

To flash TWRP use the fastboot command: fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-falcon.img
You can then use ADB to transfer or sideload a ROM zip to phone for flashing.

EDIT: Since you just updated the post to state you have a 4G Moto G - do not flash non-4G ROMs or firmware images - that includes GPE!

I'm going to assume you have flashed the XT1032 partition table (gpt.bin) - that could be the cause.
If you flash the full Factory Firmware image, that should fix everything.

Orange version is one created for the network / carrier called Orange.
Do the fastboot commands manually, one at a time, and post a complete log here if the process is not successful.

I have a Moto G (XT1032) running Android 5.0.2 that went out of charge one day. It then decided to boot into a black screen - i.e. I can see the Motorola splash screen (animation) but all I get after that is a black (grey) screen, not responsive to touch.
I tried a few things and they didn't work -
Fastbooted and selected 'Recovery' option - The Motorola logo (first screen of startup splash screen) appears briefly. Then the device returns to fastboot menu saying 'Boot Up failed'
Fastbooted and selected 'Factory' - The Motorola splash screen appears, boots into same black (grey) screen again.
The fastboot menu says "Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0". I did not enable USB debugging before my phone stopped working.
How do I get my phone working again?
You do not need an unlocked Bootloader to flash one of the factory firmware images: (I suggest using only one of the 5.0.2 images)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/index-moto-g-falcon-factory-firmware-t3110795
Is there important data on the phone? Then do not use the command: mfastboot erase userdata

At this stage you should press power button for few seconds and tap vol +, it is the way to enter recovery in lollippp, correct me if I am wrong.

@Joncillo - See the last post in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/moto-g-bootup-problem-recovery-mode-t3122492 - you are both in the same situation I believe.
It's a known issue; where battery is allowed to die and has resulted in Bootloader / Partition corruption.
Try what I have suggested there - if that does not solve it, you may have to wait for a working Lollipop hardbrick solution, which would allow you to repair the Bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-revive-hard-bricked-moto-g-t2833798

I own a XT1541 and updated to Marhsmallow via OTA few weeks ago. I encountered some troubles with the performance. I also had the issue that a single app was attempted to be optimized on every boot. Therefore, I decided to reset it to factory settings. However, it seemed that this process failed (waited nearly for an hour to complete but nothing happened).
After rebooting then manually, I am stuck in a fastboot message
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)
failed to validate boot image
ERROR: failed to pass validation, backup to fastboot
Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from charger boot mode
CID Read Failure
Invalid CID status 0x69
I can access the device via my Linux using fastboot command. What do you propose to recover from my problem.
Thanks

One thing that confuses me is the fact that the tool tells me that I shall turn on the USB debug mode. However, since Android does not boot any longer, I have no chance to do this in the Settings. Is there any way to enable this debug mode in another way?
Can somebody help me?
After blankflash bootloader 411A* i can revive
my phone with any rom.
XT1032 moto g 2013.
Every time it gives error with:
Preflash validation failed or permission denied
I've try to blankflash again by forcing drivers
in win 10 to see it.
The device is seen (device manager)as qualcom 9008.
It doesn't do anything said waiting for device when i try to blankflash again.
So i am stuck in a crazy locked bootloader with
no partition on phone nothing.....
I've try to flash almost all available rom for it.
Same result,every time failed with permision denied
or partition downgraded for gpt
(blue letters warning)
or Preflash validation failed .....
Any idea how can i flash a moto or boot image of
any rom to revive it?
I am tired of trying so many.....
If i can make the phone be seen
by RSD lite i can try to flash thru it.
But is not recognize by any of
the RSD Lite versions....
I think i'm gonna bin it.
Thanks for any idea........
Oh,and the story behind....
Original:moto g 5.02 tesco firmware....
Unlocked bootloader.....
Flashed 4.4 GPE....OK
Updated OTA....bricked....
only seen in
PC as qulcomm.....
Next...bankflashed.....ok
Bootloader shows status locked
Phone booting in fastboot and that's it....
'Preflash validation' error is normally due to having a locked Bootloader and trying to flash an older firmware than previously installed, i.e 5.0.2 over 5.1. You may have corrupted the Bootloader by applying the OTA Update after flashing 4.4.4. You are breaking every rule in the book and seem intent on completely destroying your phone.
Flash the latest XT1032 Factory Firmware Image using Fastboot. If this is not successful, it would help to see a log of the flashing process. Copy and paste command prompt screen. Take screenshots if necessary.

Fastboot Tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Use mfastboot to flash. However, ultimately, you may need to apply the unbrick method - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-unbrick-moto-g-falcon-t3394788
Thank you!
I have try all above....
It looks like the blankflash locked the
bootloader (previously was unlocked)
and is not responding to
unlock it....even with the proper unlock key....
(permission denied)
That why i need an idea how to
blankflash/rewrite bootloader again.
I will post later on some screenshots with getvarall.
Yes,i sort it out, if other people having same problem need to flash only gpt.bin.
And this one extracted ONLY from 5.1 brazilian rom.
Any other procedure will not restore bootloader
to initial state.
After that you can flash any other compatible rom...
Thanks to all especially to Chalkydri who point me
to the brazilian rom.
Google * unbrick moto g*. You will get a xda thread dated june 2016. Follow the steps worked for my hard bricked moto g might as well work for you.
when I flashed falcon_502_partitions_nomodem.zip on my moto g XT1028 and then I reboot to bootloader nothing is there and when I tried to restart my devices the screen is black and the fastboot mode is also not visible and I'm not able to flash anything to make my device work.

Try some 5.1 brazilian rom.Google for it.
You must have XT1032 moto G for this to work.
And try flash whole rom.
Even if it gives you some errors you might be able to unlock bootloader to previous state....
Good luck!

I tried several ways to install the stock but without success, and I also tried to unlock the boatloader and also failed, I tried to install another version of the boatloader and without success. I'm sorry for my bad english, I'm using google translator to talk to you. And sorry if I did something wrong, this is the first time I participate in a forum here.
This smart is my main device and I really need it, if you can help me, I thank you very much.
Hey guys, I've the same problem with the XT1032 model. My phone was bricked 4 days ago, and I tried to flash a 5.0.2 Retail US with a 41.1A Bootloader, after to flash this motoboot.img, I can't flash anything. All the times appears this same message:
(bootloader) Failed to erase partition
(bootloader) Failed to flash partition
My bootloader is corrupt :crying:
I don't know how to solve this problem, I've tried flashing with 9-10 ROM's for my model, and all times appears this message, I tried in 3 different PC's. Anybody did solve this problem?
Hello,
Someone succeed ? If yes how ?

Same here and what's intriguing is that now the BL version is 0.5 with unknown Baseband. Whereas before blankflashing it was 2.7 with a baseband. Tried everything like you but without a working baseband, I can flash ROMs but no cellular connectivity. SIM cards turn out disabled
