Using AEX's AOSP 7.1 rom(Indian quark) from few days. Facing many issues like app crashes and no LTE mostly. Today i wanted to call someone and clicked on phone app on home screen. Suddenly a message popped up saying phone has stopped. It showed whenever i clicked on phone app. I restarted the phone. Thatsit. Its only booting into fastboot mode. Whenever i chose to select recovery mode it only boots into fastboot. checked the bootloaderlogs and found "failed to validate boot image ret=-1 bootup failed" this message.Please, I need a serious help.

It's booting to the bootloader screen? You should be able to arrow up from there using the volume keys to the "recovery" option and boot to TWRP.
Once in TWRP, restore the backup you made. You did make a recent backup in TWRP, right?
OR in TWRP, do a factory reset and install a ROM. In TWRP, you can drag over whatever you want if you are connected to a PC. Works just like a flash drive. Drag over a ROM, GAPPs, etc if you don't want to install AEX's AOSP 7.1 again.

But you can go to recovery mode. If it's booting to the bootloader, you can arrow up to recovery and choose that.
Oh no, you flashed original 6.0 and 5.0 firmware? OK, now you have not only wiped out your custom TWRP recovery you have have flashed older bootloader over newer bootloader which BRICKS the phone. You never, never, never flash older firmware over newer firmware unless you omit gpt.bin in the flash commands.
Even then you should also omit recovery.img in the flash commands to keep custom recovery.
Your bootloader is unlocked, right? If so, there is still hope. Hold on.

Yes. Still my device is unlocked. In fastboot mode, the text showing in yello color saying, Device is UNLOCKED. Status code :3.
Please help me.. Is it possible through teamviewer?? please please help me..

Yes, it's for Brazil XT1225 but your bootloader is unlocked and there's no India equivalent posted online. You need the very latest Marshmallow stock (with latest bootloader) from Motorola and that's it. For stock you can only flash the same version bootloader you have or newer.
You will NOT be using RSDLite. You will have to use ADB fastboot. Read this post for instructions.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/dr...force-how-to-manually-flash-official-t3282077
Yes, it's for the Moto X Force, but the steps are still the same for any bootloader unlocked Motorola device. You are flashing cross-region firmware on your India XT1225 to get it back working again.
You will need to omit gpt.bin when flashing the commands.
Once your phone is working again, you will need to re-flash TWRP and root with that older SuperSu version or whatever you did the first time.
After that you can reinstall a custom ROM if you wish.

One thing...
On that Brazil firmware link I only see 10 sparse chunks, numbered 0-9, Yet, in your post above you have 12 listed. how are you flashing 12? (0-11) You can only flash as many sparse chunks as there are, that example from the Moto X Force thread is just an example. You have to flash the exact number.
I see you did NOT flash gpt.bin, which is good.
If your bootloader is still unlocked, this should work.
The only thing else I can suggest is this powerful temp root command first, before flashing the Brazil image. But you then have to flash an "end"/"finish" command or the next time you reboot, that itself will cause a bootloop. Over in the Droid Turbo forum, they use that temp root command to flash Sunshine, so Sunshine can then unlock the bootloader. You don't need Sunshine, I am only pointing you to the temp root file, which may help you flash this Brazil Marshmallow image.
There was another thread I can't find right now, from a person in very similar circumstances to you. His bootloader was even locked -- which was worse than you. But using that temp command, he was able to revive his phone using ADB fastboot flashing. His only problem then was not ending the temp root, and now I've lost the thread.
So, try this. Flash the temp root, followed by all the ADB fastboot commands to flash that image, followed by the command to end the temp root (it's double quotation marks with a space before them).

Yes. My bad. i had just copied commands to show u that i followed them. But in real, i had only flashed 9 of them.
and coming to your post, so should I need to download the initroot from "got the initroot working with internet for Droid Turbo - https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4-...ader-t3639316/" and install in my system and run the .bat file? would it work for my xt1225? there mentioned other than xt1225. after flashing all the 9 system sparse chunks from brazil firmware, is this the command to end the temp root?? fastboot oem config fsg-id " "
I am confused

Yes, but to end the temp root -- it's hard to tell due to XDA formatting --but It's fastboot oem config fsg-id "", with a space between the fsg-id part and the double quotation marks. There's NO space IN the quotation marks, just a space before it.

i have downloaded auto-intiroot-xt1254_quark.so shall i simply install it in my system and run the bat file? so no problem for my phone? to end that, simply ill follow the command without spaces.
first ill install bat file,then flash all the fastboot commands of firmware,and before fastboot reboot, ill end the temp flash and reboot my device.is this the procedure???

Yes, you downloaded the right version. It's this one, even though you have an XT1225:
http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/Motorola/autoinitroot/XT1254
Yes, install the bat file via fastboot, then run the fastboot commands for firmware, then end the temp flash and try to reboot.
IF this doesn't work, I have no other ideas really. Just variations of making sure you are flashing the firmware correctly, which you seem to be doing.

Thank you! Thought I was going crazy. I KNEW I had discussed this just recently and the person used temp root and got the phone working again. Then I couldn't find the posts. But it was you who suggested the temp root tool and it worked.
Yeah, start on this page, with post 475:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...tock-firmware-moto-maxx-droid-t3063470/page48
There was no final resolution to that person's problem but he was able to reboot the phone and it was working again, thanks to the temp root.

I had run auto-init.bat which booted my phone in fastboot mode asusual.then i followed the same steps by ending the temp root like mentioned.But same happened. in bootloader logs the same ret=-1 and also Fastboot reason : Reboot mode set to fastboot.This was all i followed.

Both were told they probably had hardware failure, most like flash memory.
I'm almost out of ideas. Since all your flashing did seem to go OK, how about now trying to flash TWRP again? You would be replacing stock recovery with a TWRP image. Then with phone off try using the volume + power button to boot to bootloader screen, if it will let you. Then from there you can choose TWRP. Once in TWRP (if you get that far) you can try dragging over a ROM to flash.
But if you are experiencing a hardware failure you probably won't be able to get that far.

I'm generally not very good walking people through things, but here is something to try. It's almost exactly what you've done before, except you will use mfastboot erase for specific partitions before flashing. Do NOT erase the bootloader - it can brick the phone. You shouldn't need to temp root, since your bootloader is unlocked.
From a command prompt, in the directory/folder you have ADB/(m)fastboot:
reminder do NOT erase the bootloader:
Code:
mfastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
Code:
mfastboot erase boot
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot erase recovery
for stock recovery use:
Code:
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
for TWRP (download link) use:
Code:
mfastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-mod_2-quark.img
Code:
mfastboot erase system
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
if you installed TWRP:
Code:
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
then start recovery to let it make the changes to keep it from being replaced, and then reboot
for stock recovery just reboot:
Code:
mfastboot reboot
If this doesn't work it's either failing hardware as ChazzMatt stated, or time to do things you shouldn't.

Nope.Bad news. Even this didnt work. All this happened because of AEX rom I suppose. Since I flashed that rom, most of the apps were force closing. I thought these bugs might be solved in future updates and continued using it. I shouldnt have flashed that rom. Should have continued RR rom. Huge terrible mistake of mine. I am not blaming the developer.Please dont take this as an offence.I know all this is our own risk and already mentioned at the beginning of the posts.Just Blaming myself...
Thanks for your and @ChazzMatt help anyways.thanku soo much..
RIP my Moto
Edit 1 : Bought new Samsung A9 pro which fulfills my needs with a good battery backup. Goodbye to my Moto Turbo.Also to this forum.
Once again My Heartful thanks to @ChazzMatt and @hitokage004

[GPE][REFLASH]Pre flash validation failed for gpt moto g xt1033.

Hey
I asked a question before but no one seemed interested. On my xt1033, I installed GPE 4.4.2 Firmware. I installed Carbon ROM on it. Now, I wanted to flash back to my stock Asia Retail firmware. When I tried flashing it, I got the error below -
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.3.9600]

So, basically I even tried flashing motoboot.img and the same result appeared.
To at least allow my phone to receive calls, I tried installing stock GPE Edition ROM but the same error.
Now, u guys have any solution for it?
ANSWER FAST CAUSE NO ONE SEEMS ACTIVE HERE! ANSWER OR THIS FORUM WOULD S**K!!!!
ALSO, I tried installing it with 4.4.2 asia stock retail ROM.
I had twrp recovery installed from before where I formatted the system, cache, dalvik-cache, and wiped data/cache but still no hopes.
ANYONE HEARD ME? I'M IN DIRE NEED OF HELP!

You may be getting this error because your bootloader is locked.
Here is a guide to unlock it:

I'm new to the forum, but here's what happened to me when I tried to flash CyanogenMod and back to Stock ROM.
My solution was to download a Stock ROM.xml.zip and do the following:
1. Verify that you are in a USB 2.0 connection. USB 3.0 ports (blue) do not work.
2. Download the file I posted.
3. ADB Install Tools.
4. Unzip the "mFastBootFilesForADBTools.rar" inside the folder where you installed the ADB Tools. Archive
5. Fetch the files of StockROM.xml.zip and place within the ADB Tools folder.
PS. In my case I used this Stock ROM: "Android 4.4.2
Blur_Version.171.44.31.falcon_umtsds.Brasil.en.BR. "But is BR, download a similar in your area.
6. Hold the SHIFT key and right-click within the ADB Tools folder. Choose the option: Open a command window here.
. 7 Put the following commands:
mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe modemst2 erase
mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot.exe erase cache
mfastboot.exe erase userdata
mfastboot.exe reboot
* If the FAILED error occurs in the first two, ignore and continue:
* Note if the OKAY appear at all after the "logo.bin" (including this one).
* If all goes as planned, the phone will reboot and will take a while to configure the system. And be with the Stock ROM you chose.
* To update OTA, just wait about 2 minutes after connect the Wii-Fi, check the settings and try to update. If error happen, wait about 2 more minutes and try again. With that everything should be OK.
Do not blame me if it goes wrong. Just worked for me. Currently I use the Stock ROM with OTA. Android 4.4.4

Help, hab check failed for recovery and boot

After the dumbest idea ever of downgrading to KitKat, I think i soft bricked my phone, it doesn't boot up.
When i try to flash a stock rom from bootloader it says:
Code:
hab check failed for recovery
hab check failed for boot
And when i try flashing a ROM or wiping on TWRP says:
Code:
unable to mount /data
unable to mount /cache
I tried everything i saw on XDA after googling many times the errors, nothing worked :crying:
One strange thing I saw was that when I tried "fastboot format data" it returned: "formatting is not supported for filesystem with type '' " , so, maybe, is a problem with the filesystem?
Help me, please :crying:
Done
Finally, I made it work, I erased and formatted all what i can, then through TWRP I formatted Data and now it works

Hi Mr. Ju,
I am having the exact same problem. I tried to use:
mfastboot devices
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot reboot
But it did not work. I sitll have the "hab check failed for boot" and hancheck failed for recovery" when I tried to reflash the GPE5.1 rom.
Can you please post all the mfastboot commands you used?
Thanks
Jº
Fastboot erase command is extremely dangerous and should not be played with.
@jpmaroco - Is your Bootloader locked?
Thanks lost101
No my boatloader is unlocked. I can't even wipe/factory reset with TWRP

In the Phone, after

after

So, this seems to me that nothing is being flashed (It still keep my old twrp-2.8.7.0.-falcon_GPE.img recovery, not the stock one in GPE5.1 Lollipop)
I can boot in TWRP (after waiting for 5-6 minutes) but I can't factory reset because it says:
E: Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer
E: unable to mount /data
E:unbale to recreate /data/media/folder

Does the same for "Storage" (unable to mount storage)...
Factory reset complete

Should I try to flash the twrp-2.8.7.0.-falcon_STOCK.img?
Thanks for all your help lost101.

[Q] Help! fastboot flash appears to do nothing!

I have somehow totally trashed my Android install. I have a UK retail Moto G XT1032.
While downloading the OTA lollipop update, the download appeared to stall. I decided to give up on the update, so I switched the phone off. When I turned it back on again, every single process crashed. "Unfortunately dialler/android.process.acore/Calendar/android.process.media/etc has stopped". I can keep tapping "OK" for ever to clear these notifications, but can't actually use the phone for anything at all.
So I decided to do a factory reset from fastboot. It made no difference.
I tried a factory reset from recovery. It made no difference.
Using fastboot, I attempted to install the stock ROM according to the guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219. Everything seemed to flash OK - I got OKAY on the PC and the commands appeared to be running on the phone OK, but when it restarted, the phone was exactly the same - my wallpaper photo was still there, and the app icons that I could glimpse behind the endless notifications were my apps.
I tried several more times, this time flashing the 4.4.4 ROM (RETAIL-GB_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF). Exactly the same results - nothing changes when I restart.
It's as if the mfastboot flash commands do nothing at all! I have run all the mfastboot commands described by the guide in the order given.
I've also tried booting to recovery and connecting to ADB, but the PC cannot see the device.
I've tried replacing the recovery with CWM and TWRP .img files, but the flash command, while seeming to work, doesn't change anything at all! The recovery that I have installed is the standard KXB21.14-L1.40.
I have tried "mfastboot.exe erase recovery", before attempting to update the recovery, but it makes no difference.
Does anybody have any idea what I am doing wrong? It seems that no "mfastboot flash xxx yyy" command works at all on my phone.
Did you installfastboot or mfastboot? ADB commands only work if the is booted and USB debugging is on.
Got the same problem. I've already posted this in a few threads and didn't get any answer, though
Sounds crazy but, when you type fastboot devices with your phone connected in fastboot mode, does the command return your phone's serial #?
Yes, everything via fastboot works (says complete, done etc.) except it doesn't affect the real system. If you sideload ADB you will see that the system, data and cache partition become read-only. I've managed to remount only data partition with write privileges, but that doesn't help.
Are you flashing each partition manually? You can see your device's serial # in fastboot?

Originally, I used the version of fastboot that came with the first stock ROM I tried (falcon_retgb_user_4.3_14.10.0Q3.X-76-LGG-8_54_release-keys-cid7-Retail_GB).
Later on, I installed mfastboot and used that instead. The results were the same. Nothing seems to actually be flashed, but there are no errors on either the PC or the phone.
ADB does not work in fastboot (I don't believe it's supposed to!), but it also will not work with the version of recovery that I have, which is why I was attempting to install CWM and TWRP in its place.

Yes. I'm currently trying the following sequence with the XT1032_RETAIL-GB_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml ROM...
Code:
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
The mfastboot command returns OKAY for each of these, and a couple of yellow lines appear on the phone for each command, indicating that the right command is running, with no error messages.
I have never used mfastboot. Maybe try using fastboot to flash? I have used fastboot on my Moto G and Moto Atrix HD with great success.
Tried with fastboot, tried with mfastboot, got no errors but nothing changes. The real problem I suppose is corrupted partitions.
Have you tried the moto flash tool??

@IcyBee, I see you're flashing the GB retail. Is it possible to try a different ROM such as the GPE?

I've just given it a go.
When flashing the ROMs, it basically runs the same mfastboot commands that I was running before, so the result was exactly the same.
However, the ADB Driver install button was worth trying. The driver supplied has enabled my PC to communicate with the phone using ADB when in recovery mode!
Unfortunately, after selecting "apply update from ADB" on the phone, and running "adb sideload <ROM zip file>", it sends it to the phone (taking a couple of minutes), and the phone says "Verifying update package", followed by "Installation aborted".
When you sideload, do you need some sort of special format ROM file?

I was hoping to use the stock ROM, just to get the phone back to its original state.
If the mfastboot command does nothing, I doubt trying different ROMs will help. But I'll probably try it if I can't get anything else to work.
thanks a lot!
@IcyBee - I have seen this before. Try using fastboot on a Linux PC / Laptop. You can use a live cd to do this - no need to actually install Linux.
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot​

Thanks for the idea. I happen to have a laptop running the latest Lubuntu.
I installed fastboot as you directed and re-flashed everything. Exactly the same. The commands all say OKAY, the yellow text on the phone says it's running the commands, but when I reboot - everything is exactly as it was before - including my wallpaper photo and app icons. And every single process on the phone is crashing.
I do not believe fastboot is actually working on this phone. The only commands that seem to work are the ones to unlock the bootloader and the one to reboot the phone.
@IcyBee - does the fastboot commands for flashing the system.img files actually match the files in the firmware folder?
I.e first file is sparsechunk.0 not sparsechunk1
EDIT: Next I would try the only available XT1032 factory firmware image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58534609
It's retail Brazil, but will work anywhere in the world.
I suggest you skip flashing the bootloader - motoboot.img

OK - I downloaded this and flashed it. Exactly the same as all the previous attempts. It appears to work, but when I restart, the phone is in exactly the same state as before, as if no flashing has happened.

Attached is a very blurry picture taken in poor light with my very old spare phone of the Moto G just before boot. All commands seemed OK, except for recovery.img and motoboot.img, which displayed "hab check error" in pink (not pictured).
Thanks again to all of you for your assistance in this matter.

Recovery mode ADB will work in Linux. You could try side-loading the 5.0.2 OTA Update.

So now my phone is bricked ! thats my fault as i tried downgrading bootloader !
I can access bootloader mode and i have already tried flashing that again without using
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
commands !
Now tell me what to do , I don't want to unlock bootloader and install twrp and install cm12.1.1
Please help what can be done ?
Thanks
This is because your BL is locked. Pls unlock it and then try flashing the firmware. BROTIP: Always avoid downgrading.. Now flash the MM firmware to at least boot the device (if firmware is out).

You can try googling it , as I am not sure myself. But I do know it is do able. Probably someone like fastboot backup bootloader. Don't try that command because I don't actually know if that it right xD . Anyway just flash the output file as a .img file , to your device and it should all be ok.
Please hit thanks , it means alot
Whether downgradable?
Fellas I have an XT1550. I got updated to stock MM via OTA. Afterwards I unlocked my bootloade, flashed latest TWRP and BetaSuperSU 2.66. Everything was fine untill when I tried to remove my Bootloader Unlocked warning screen by following steps in http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/themes-apps/remove-unlocke-bootloader-message-t3177801.
My phone got stuck in bootloader screen.
I wiped everything using TWRP.
Is it safe for me to flash stock lollipop now using fastboot without hard bricking.??????
Help !
Still Not able to Downgrade to Lollipop ! :crying::crying:

I upgraded to MM and downgraded to 5.1.1 successfully.
1> Try to access your stock recovery and do a wipe (data and cache). This step is very important as stated by @lost101 on his firmware flashing guide.
2> reboot back to boot loader mode
3> when using the flash commands, the first one : fastboot flash partition gpt.bin will potentially fail. This is since the partitions were updated to the tables defined according to the requirement of MM. Dont worry. fail on this command wont do anything.
4> proceed with the other commands one by one to flash your 5.1.1 carefully until the last command which says reboot.
TaDa.. downgrade completed.
'Factory data reset' in Android is an essential step that needs to be done when changing ROMs or downgrading. If your bootloader is unlocked, flash a custom ROM via TWRP, boot into Android and do a reset. After this, fastboot flashing of firmware images will be successful. If your bootloader is locked, you may have no choice but to return the phone to retailer.
@harsinghal :
Try the below order. It worked for me.
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin (Skip this command if prev validation fails)
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot

Thanks bro, after data and cache wipe it worked, until then it was a nightmare.
Thanks again.

Allow OEM Unlock Bootloader

Hello! My phone's stuck in a bootloop and flashing Stock ROM doesn't help, so I was thinking of rooting the phone. Problem is I don't have Allow OEM Unlock ticked and I can't get onto the phone to do it. Is there any way to Allow OEM Unlock from bootloader? Or any other solution that might fix the problem?
Thank you!

The phone MUST be bootable to enable OEM Unlocking, if you can't get it to boot to turn it on, there is no way to unlock the bootloader, thus no way to root.
It might be useful if you gave us some more details about how you got into this state... what you did or what happened, specific variant, etc.

Oh okay. I've got a Motorola G3, XT1541. I tried updating it to Marshmallow which resulted in the phone bootlooping so I tried following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/guide-fastboot-flashing-factory-t3187750 to fix it. Everything works fine when following the guide, I get [OKAY] on all steps in fastboot but it still doesn't work. I actually did miss the last sparsechunk file the first time I did it, so I ran it again. I can still get to the bootloader, but when trying to reach the recovery menu from there it just goes into bootloop again.
Thank you very much for helping out!

And you are positive it is the correct image for your device? If you got a success message for each piece and it still won't boot, I'm not sure what to say. Can you post a log or screenshot of the process?

On the back of the phone it says Model: XT1541 and I'm using the XT1541 6.0 version from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/index-moto-g-factory-firmware-images-t3169639 so it should be the right one!

From what I can see it all looks fine?

On the back of the phone it says Model: XT1541 and I'm using the XT1541 6.0 version from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/index-moto-g-factory-firmware-images-t3169639 so it should be the right one!
Here's the log I get when flashing:

Actually, that looks perfect... And it just bootloops afterwards, meaning it actually does a reboot and NOT just getting "stuck"?
I do not have a copy of this firmware image, it has exactly 7 sparcechunk pieces (0-6)?
One more thing... before you issue the fb_mode_set command, did you do a 'fastboot format cache' and 'fastboot format userdata' or do a factory reset from recovery?

After issuing the reboot command at the end it goes to the white screen with the motorola logo, then the screen goes black, and then back to the motorola logo, and keep on going like that.
Yeah that's correct, 0-6 sparsechunk files. I did fastboot ERASE cache and ERASE userdata, since I can't get into the recovery menu (goes into bootloop if I try). When I try any of those commands it says Formatting is not supported for filesystem with type 'raw'.
im having the exact same problem, used the same software and carried out the same steps as you with no luck either.
from what ive read its because you need to wipe all the data first but because we get the, cant its RAW message, it wont download the firmware onto the phone even though it says it went ok. at the minute i havnt found anyone whos successfully been able to repair this fault.
mine was working perfectly untill the ota update
There is no fix for that, use your warranty if you have so
Hi,
I have the same problem, I've made the same steps after faulty OTA update. And the Motorola warranty shop has told me that the warranty is void because of interference in the software. I have to add that in the fastboot after "getvar all" command there's a line "iswarrantyvoid = no", so as I understand the warranty should be still valid.
Regards.

It's fastboot not adb lol. Contradictory sentences
Edit: BTW motoboot.img is not present, it may refer to earlier generation of moto g. There is an line to flash bootloader.img instead. Have a look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3187750. Thanks.
