Stuck in Bootloader - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, so I have a Boost Mobile Moto G (Falcon) and I unlocked it, flashed TWRP, and installed SlimROM. I forgot to activate the phone before flashing it with Slim, so I tried flashing the stock 4.4.4 ROM. When I did, it had an error 70 I believe. I then flashed the ROM manually using CMD, and when I rebooted it, it only flashed the Android with the text "No Command" under it. It's just flashing it over and over till I power the phone off. I've installed another recovery (CWM), but when I try to boot into it, it says "Boot up failed".
Is there any possible way to fix this? I made a backup using TWRP, but I accidentally erased it. Right now I'm stuck in the bootloader.
Internal storage also doesn't show up.

[Q] No Rom, failure when flashing

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.

[Q] Can't boot

I have a Moto G 2013 (XT0133).
I was trying to install CM12 on it using TWRP recovery. I used this (youtube: /watch?v=ix7rrKS4keI) method.
It failed. Now I'm stuck on the "Bootloader unlocked" message and my device won't boot. How can I fix this? Do I have to wait for the battery to drain and then recharge my phone, boot into TWRP and flash the backup? Or is my device just bricked?
Can you boot into recovery? If you can, try wiping cache, Dalvik, and data to see if it boots.
If the phone doesn't boot, I suggest flashing back to stock 4.4.4. Do not flash anything lower than 4.4.4. Try to find your ROM here: See if you can find the stock 4.4.4 ROM from here: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6...how=100&page=1
Did you update your bootloader from Kit Kat to Lollipop before trying to install CM12?
I can't stop it from booting, it is just stuck on the "bootloader unlocked" screen. I made a backup, wiped everything except for internal storage (CM12 and GApps .zips were there) and then tried flashing the CM12 zip. After it failed, it said "no system" and the phone rebooted.

There is some 2-3 seconds when device is off, when creen goes dark then turn vol- and power and after 3 sec left power off
You can't boot into fastboot? Booting into fastboot does not show the unlocked warning.

[Q] Unable to access recovery from bootloader. Everything else works.

Phone (xt1033) is rooted (status code 3). I had installed some custom rom, but later went back to stock with lolipop.
I now want to install CM12.1
I flashed the latest twrp using adb (twrp-2.8.6.0-xt1032). However, if I try to access recovery from the bootloader, phone just gives me a black screen.
So, I flashed a slightly older twrp. Again, same result.
Phone is booting up, but none of the options given with the bootloader seem to be working, and I have no recovery, custom or otherwise. What should I do?

Majorly screwed up my Moto G [URGENT HELP NEEDED]

Alright so I have a Moto G original version, currently running 4.4.4. I previously rooted it and stuck TWRP on it, but then when it became available to update to Lollipop on the Moto G I tried to get stock recovery on it. I used "MotoToolAIOV3" to put "Kitkat Stock Recovery" on it. This seemed to work fine, until it came to update, which then it errored every time I tried. I then realised the stock recovery that "MotoToolAIOV3" must be faulty or something, so I tried reputting TWRP on my Moto G by flashing it from an app called "Rashr". This seemed to be successful, HOWEVER I went to reboot my phone to check if it had worked, put it into bootloader, then went into recovery and it still came up with the stock recovery "MotoToolAIOV3" had given me. I was confused, so I tried "normal powerup", which THEN sent me into TWRP, however this time, when the bootloader unlocked warning came up, a weird blurry line went through my screen every so often, and then it went into TWRP, with the line going across the screen in TWRP as well. I've tried to boot into normal powerup through TWRP, Bootloader, normal powerup, holding down power button but every time I try, it goes into TWRP with a dodgy line going across my screen. I'm currently doing exams and I really need my phone as I have revision notes on apps that I can only access on that phone, and things such as exam timetable saved in the actual phone.
Please, somebody help ):
Again my phone is a Moto G Original Gen running 4.4.4 stock android, on a tesco thing (cant remember what its called might be kernel).
Thank you.

Seems like you have flashed TWRP into the kernel partition. Seem like the "Rashr" app or whatever flashed it there by mistake. I recommend that you install TWRP via a more standard procedure, such as using fastboot(if bootloader unlocked) or using the instructions given where ever you downloaded TWRP. Your situation is not serious as long as you are careful....
1. Install recovery to correct partition
2. Boot to that recovery and wipe/factory reset etc...
3. Install an new ROM.

XT1032 brick after downgrade from Marshmallow

Hi guys, that's my first theard.
I installed CM13 a few days ago, the 20160102 nightly, but its didn't like me so much, my past ROM Slimsaber 5.1 had more features so I preferred it, and today restored my backup from that ROM.
It boots well but when finished to configure all apps it reboot into bootloop, i tried to wipe cache/data but nothing happened.
Then I tried to flash the firmware that I was using (BRAZIL 5.1 retail) and it flashed ok, with no problems. But when I reboot it stays in "bootloader unlocked" image. I tried to flash it again and didn't stay at the "bootloader unlocked" image, but its shows me a screen with a broken Android with the phrase "No command" and immediately disappeared, and then again, like an infinite loop. I don't know if this is useful but, when I turned off the phone to restore the backup I did it with the advanced Reboot menu into Recovery, is it related?
I know that it said, in the CM13 theard that IT CAN NOT BE DOWNGRADED, so I did the backup with TWRP, but I don't know why it bricked. Also I though it could be downgraded by flashing.
Thank you. I hope you can help me!
If you need some info about my phone please request it.
PD: Sorry for my bad English, is not my native languaje.
Edit: Now I connected it to my PC in bootloader mode, and force a reboot with fastboot and its shows the screen with a broken Android and the phrase "No command" and immediatly dissapered, cause if I try to "Normal Powerup" in the bootloader mode its shows the white screen of the unlocked bootloader.
Edit 2: Also I tried to install TWRP, and when I reboot with fastboot, the phone goes directly to TWRP, so I think is bugged or something, since I did reboot to recovery in marshmallow.
Have u fixed ur Moto G ?!
