Hello Folks:
This comes after a bit of struggle to get this Moto G XT1132 Retail version to stock. For some weird reason the phone refused to boot after factory wipe via CWM..That shouldn't have happened in the first case. But **** happens and that's XDA helps the troubled users. There is still shortage of complete toolkits with full features around for Moto G not privileged like Nexus 4 or Nexus 5 yet..
Symptoms :
1. Moto G refuse to start and STUCK at boot / bootloop.
2. Normal fastboot commands upsets you by not flashing system.img or any other stock firmware files.
Solution:
1. Edit the RETAIL-GB_4.4.2_KLB20.9-1.10-1.9_cid7_CFC_1FF_v5_SVC.txt (its an xml file though) as attached with this post.(You just need to remove one line from the top; don't worry if your .xml looks different from this one; as I have taken this as an example)
2. Get your firmware from here : http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
3. Download the flash.txt file from this post rename it to flash.bat (its very important) put this in the extracted folder of your firmware.
4. Copy all the fastboot files in the extracted firmware folder along with the flash.bat
5. Rename the fastboot.exe to > fastboot-moto-windows.exe
6. Put your Moto G to bootloader mode
7. Click on the flash.bat file which is in the firmware extracted folder. It will do its stuff and may take few seconds. When the script stops just reboot the phone. And you are back to stock with no bootloop.
NOTE: You are on your own. I take no responsibility for any device getting bricked or whatsoever.
I take NO Credit for this and I have just gathered this information from various forums including XDA. I have just tried to put them at one place to make it Frustration Free...
If I helped you Hit the Thanks button down there...
I specially thank tillaz for the batch file which is a key tool to fix the mess
Good Luck

I think so. Just give a shot. if it doesnt work then just replace the stock firmware from GB to DE. Alles Beste!
it gives me the same as the original method " < waiting for device > "
i have made a full swipe to the phone, cleaned the previous custom rom already, and a have cwm recovery.. dont know if this info is important
DONE!! i havent put the adb files in the firmware folder, but has flashed flawlessly now!! thank you for this solution!! :good:

What is meant by this ? what exactly am I removing ? Do I need to rename it to the firmware I am about to flash?
Cheers.
EDIT: I figured it out, I just had a noob moment in my despair and couldn't take the information in, What a difference some nicotine and a cuppa makes!
Thanks OP great work.

Yes, However you can flash to stock and just relock the bootloader and warranty is back intact.

how do I do dat?can u pls give me steps to do so..
well there are many threads explaining how to unlock bootloader, It basically consists of getting a code through adb, putting that code onto motorola website, getting the code and sending it to the phone. check the guides in the general section.
as for relocking it, is as simple as going into fastboot and typing (in adb / fastboot) fastboot oem lock.

I have tried to flash many different firmwares on it to get it out of the boot loop like "US Retail" (4.3 and 4.4.2), "Boost US" (4.3 and 4.4.2), and "Verizon US" (4.3 and 4.4.2). This always results in one of the 3 error messages or more. I have found the one that works with the least error messages is the Boost US firmware for 4.4.2 and it gives only the error message (bootloader) Failed to validate sparse image on the 3rd system file. Whenever I try to install the firmware it doesn't seem to work, and it results in the phone turning on with the Motorola logo then the phone vibrates once then turns off and repeats, or the phone shows the android logo on its back with the exclamation point after the single vibration and sits like that until it turns off a few minutes later repeating the process. I have tried everything including trying to boot normally, resetting to factory, going into recovery and wiping cache and deleting all data, and even attempting to install from ADB. I have actually successfully done this process before a few hours before trying it on this one where it ended up like this. I looked this up and apparently you can still fix the phone if it can reach the boot loader screen, but when I was working with the phone I forgot to put it in developer mode and turn on USB debugging so that might be an issue. If there is a way I could fix it that would be very helpful, but if it doesn't I can still return the phone in the next 4 days.
Thanks for the help!
Extra Info:
The phone's bootloader is locked and because it is new I do not have any backups.
Also I already have these following programs
Minimal ADB and Fastboot
RSD Lite
DFS
Mfastboot v2
r1-motog-modifiedrecoveryroot.zip
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321.zip
platform-tools.zip
Fastboot+ADB(20926).zip
adbfix.zip
These are all from other threads that have explained this issue but the fix they provided did not work.
Thanks Again!
Guys, I have a Moto-G that was sold to me as a XT-1032 US global GSM model. The guy who sold it to me said that after the OTA update for 4.4.2 was applied to his phone it never would see a signal again, and kept saying to turn off airplane even though it saw that a sim was installed. looking at the status it kept saying the radio was turned off. When I got it from him it was showing the unlocked bootloader message, but when I checked the status on the fastboot screen it was showing locked status 2, which indicates it had never been unlocked. I unlocked the bootloader and started trying different versions of the firmware to see if I could fix the issue, but nothing ever worked until I tried this method.
I only flashed the radio from the GB 4.4.2 version that the OP had provided the XML file for using the modified xml file he provided, and now my cell radio is working again. Since I had already voided any warranty on it, I went ahead with flashing the CWM recovery and the latest nightly for CM11 and it's working beautifully, very smooth. I had bought this for my wife if I could fix it, so now she's getting a nice upgrade from her old GSM galaxy nexus that had started developing issues where it had to be rebooted to get the radio to work again (on the stock 4.3 firmware mind you, just a hardware problem I think due to it's age)
So in short Thanks OP!!

Thanks for posting this since my phone is having these exact issues! I was a little unsure of what you meant in step 1 above, so what I did is take the sample XML which you attached to the post and replaced the software version info in the header with the version information for my carrier's firmware. Not sure if that was what I was supposed to do. Anyway, everything works great except that it is failing to flash motoboot.img. The command windows says it's a remote error- preflash validation failed, and the phone displays an error that says the version has been downgraded for tz. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
I have a locked bootloader Moto G XT 1033. I'm unable to restore stock firmware.

Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Please standby while we have your thread/question moved to the appropriate sub-forum for your device.
For future reference you can find your specific device forum here (bookmark/subscribe this):
Moto G
Within that section you will find a dedicated q&a sub-forum (this is where your thread is going to be moved to):
Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!
You may have better luck if you unlock the bootloader.
The fastboot oem lock command isn't going to really help since your bootloader is already locked.
The line "(bootloader) Preflash validation failed" tells me the bootloader on your phone is newer than the bootloader your are trying to load or your are trying to load an incorrect bootloader onto your phone.
I haven't change any part of the Boot loader. I found a solution for this.
I used adb command to flash lollipop. Its working fine now.
Thanks for your valuable replay.
Sorry for the delay.

Don't lock the bootloader first ...flash stock formaware seperately and let the device boot(we can lock bootloader later)
5.0.2 is recommended
Thanks

Steps taken:
Bought Zenfone 5 (A500_KL).
It comes with all sh**ty Asus apps, so I decided to upgrade to Android 5.0 (Lollipop) and Root (to remove all Asus sh*t later).
OS upgrade went fine.
I used official downloads (URL: asus. com / Phone / ZenFone_5_A500KL / HelpDesk_Download).

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
I'm sorry to hear about your trouble (locked bootloader?). We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and here is no forum specifically for the Zenfone 5 (A500_KL). at this time but you may want to ask your question with all relevant details in the friendly general Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help. That's a good place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search at http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=Zenfone 5 (A500_KL) which might be worth reviewing.
Good luck!
If you're reading this, you must've messed up with your device or you don't want to use custom ROMs anymore and want to revert back to stock ROM.
Going back to stock ROM is not easy on Redmi Go as Xiaomi is not providing the right ROM files. The one (Version: V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM) that is available on their ROM download site is not flashable on Mi Flash Tool or via fastboot. It will give you an error.
But, there is a way!
Follow the steps below and you can surely get back to stock ROM. (At least it worked for me every time)
CAUTION! Please proceed at your own risk. You are solely responsible for what you're doing. I will not be responsible for any kind of damage to your device.
Requirements
- Unlocked Bootloader
- Xiaomi USB drivers installed on your PC
- PC/TWRP
- microSD Card
- Minimal ADB & Fastboot (If using PC)
- V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM ROM zip file (Download here
-V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM (Download here
At first, unzip the V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM zip file. You will find a folder named images. Open it and look for "recovery.img". Copy it to a safe place (you will need it later).
Then, copy the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM zip file to your sd card.
Steps, if you're using PC
1. Install Minimal ADB & Fastboot (Download here)
2. Copy the "recovery.img" file that you extracted earlier, to the directory where your "Minimal Adb & Fastboot" is installed.
3. Run "cmd-here" and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Turn on recovery mode on your device by pressing and holding Volume+ and power button together.

As I am writing here, Redmi Go doesn't yet have any official, nor nonofficial custom recovery that doesn't have major bugs. The easiest way to root Redmi Go, as I found, is to do it without custom recovery with Magisk, with adb and fastboot.
The problem I personally faced was that I installed the OTA updates, and in such case the stock rom's boot.img does not match with the new updated/altered rom that is installed through OTA update. So before patching stock boot.img with magisk, and flashing the patched boot.img, which is based on that stock rom, you have to have stock rom, instead of OTA updated one.
Before doing you probably have to also install xiaomi usb driver, and of course you have to unlock redmi go bootloader (as instructed here in xda forum in this redmi go section , - simply doing it by going to fastboot mode and typing a few words to cmd window through adb - meaning that can ignore any official long time-consuiming instructions that are actually obselete or doesn't work without possible bugs on the way for this particular device, as I tried).
Here are official stock roms: https://en.miui.com/download-365.html or search "go" here https://en.miui.com/download.html
This is the procedure (from official Magisk installation guide, source here https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html ):
Boot Image Patching
This is the “cool” way to install Magisk on your device. Either your device does not have proper custom recoveries, your device is using the A/B partition scheme and you don’t want to mix recovery and boot images together, or you have other concerns (e.g. OTA Installation), you should use this method instead.
In order to use this method, you are required to obtain a copy of the stock boot image, which can be found by extracting OEM provided factory images or extracting from OTA update zips. If you are unable to obtain one yourself, someone on the Internet might share it somewhere. The following instructions will guide you through the process after you have the copy of boot image.
Copy the boot image to your device
Download and install the latest Magisk Manager
Press Install → Install → Select and Patch a File, and select your stock boot image file
Magisk Manager will install Magisk to your boot image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
Copy the patched boot image from your device to your PC. If you can’t find it via MTP, you can pull the file with ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Here is the command if using fastboot on most devices:
fastboot flash boot /path/to/magisk_patched.img
-----------------
Here's some slightly longer guide: https://c.mi.com/thread-1444861-1-0.html
Here is if you want to know how to easily restore stock rom (like in case of flashing boot.img that doesn't match with the rest of the rom like I did getting stuck at booting up, or you simply don't have stock rom currently for whatever reason, like having already updated through OTA).
https://www.foldertips.com/en/unbrick-all-xiaomi-snapdragon/
And after installing XiaoMiFlash and before flashing, have to reboot computer as well which was not said in the above instruction.
I would have made separate thread on how to root Redmi Go, here in this forum section, as it is obviously most secure way to rooting Redmi Go (secure, as for using official/legit tools instead of potentially installing something shady somebody has altered in ways of unfavorable to you, as well as secure that it is not really possible to hard brick it even if not following instructions properly) but I don't have enough posts in this forum to make thread here in this section so whatever.
Actually tried an easier way:
Just download the tgz file from mi website tiare_global_images_V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM_20190218.0000.00_8.1_66cc42a821.tgz

Hi, I have a doubt. My phone has the update of May 1, so I decided to do it root. Now unlock the bootloader, install twrp and flash magisk. the apps recognize me as root and everything is normal, so I did the right thing? or am I at risk of a problem? sorry for the question, what happens to understand your comment I had to translate in google and really only understood 80%, do not finish understanding why you had problems with your computer. could you help me? I already worry

I didn't use twrp at all.
I used Miflash instead of twrp as I told above, in order to restore previous state of the device.
If you did update, as one of the ways I see then, is to replace it with stock rom from which you are going to take the boot image from, to patch with magisk. Do no update. Root first. I have not updated so I don't know how the updating after rooting is going to work. No twrp needed if you just want root.

If you're reading this, you must've messed up with your device or you don't want to use custom ROMs anymore and want to revert back to stock ROM.
Going back to stock ROM is not easy on Redmi Go as Xiaomi is not providing the right ROM files. The one (Version: V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM) that is available on their ROM download site is not flashable on Mi Flash Tool or via fastboot. It will give you an error.
But, there is a way!
Follow the steps below and you can surely get back to stock ROM. (At least it worked for me every time)
CAUTION! Please proceed at your own risk. You are solely responsible for what you're doing. I will not be responsible for any kind of damage to your device.
Requirements
- Unlocked Bootloader
- Xiaomi USB drivers installed on your PC
- PC/TWRP
- microSD Card
- Minimal ADB & Fastboot (If using PC)
- V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM ROM zip file (Download here
-V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM (Download here
At first, unzip the V10.2.6.0.OCLMIXM zip file. You will find a folder named images. Open it and look for "recovery.img". Copy it to a safe place (you will need it later).
Then, copy the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM zip file to your sd card.
Steps, if you're using PC
1. Install Minimal ADB & Fastboot (Download here)
2. Copy the "recovery.img" file that you extracted earlier, to the directory where your "Minimal Adb & Fastboot" is installed.
3. Run "cmd-here" and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Turn on recovery mode on your device by pressing and holding Volume+ and power button together.
5. Once you see a "No command" screen, hold power button and press volume+ button and you should be on the recovery menu.
6. Select apply update from SD Card and locate the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM file.
7. Select "Yes"
8. Reboot system.
Steps, if you're using TWRP
1. Copy the "recovery.img" file that you extracted earlier, to your SD Card.
2. Boot TWRP
3. Select Install
4. Select Install Image
5. Locate the "recovery.img" file in your SD Card and install it.
6. Go back to main menu and reboot into recovery.
7. Once you see a "No command" screen, hold power button and press volume+ button and you should be on the recovery menu.
6. Select apply update from SD Card and locate the V10.2.7.0.OCLMIXM file.
7. Select "Yes"
8. Reboot system.
Your device should now be running clean stock ROM and recovery.

Thank you, this really saved me. A couple of days ago the hotspot stopped working properly after a security update (September 1, 2019). My computer would connect to my phone but it would say "No Internet, Secured". USB tethering also didn't work. I tried restoring to factory defaults, didn't help. So I figured I need to reflash it. The app used to unlock the bootloader didn't work, had to do it manually. The app used for flashing also didn't work, tried a manual approach - almost bricked the phone. Then I found this and it totally worked, thank you. PS: Now after the reflash it shows there's an update available with the size of 183,7MB. How safe is it to update this, since the original firmware(V10.2.9.0.ocleuxm) got screwed up by a security update?
edit: I have installed both updates 10.2.13.0.oclmixm and 10.2.14.0.oclmixm. It's working great. And locked the bootloader.

Glad to know that it helped you. And yes, you can update every time after restoring by using this method. It actually takes you to 100% stock condition.

What do you mean the device is locked?
If the bootloader is locked you can not manually flash a factory image.
If the IMEI starts with 35 it is a verizon Pixel XL with a locked boot loader.
Go to this thread and try to unlock the bootloader.
If you are successful.
