After searching for few days and trying different methods I came to the conclusion that there is an issue in rooting and flashing custom recoveries in XT1033 dual sim phones that were shipped with android 4.4.4 as default ( Most probably the ones sold in august 2014 in India )
In detail...
at least Im lucky because I could successfully unlock my bootloader, but for some the unlock code given by motorola gives " Password incorrect!/OEM unlock failure!" . This is the motorola forum dealing with that issue , more details are int he forum Bootloader Unlock Problems?
So, back to the point, This is the issue..
After successfully unlocking bootloader, I tried flashing custom recoveries, First i tried philz, but when i tried to enter into recovery, phone rebooted- it showed the bootlogo and then some a black blinking screen, the blinking is random, that screen remained until i long press on my power button which boots my phone in the normal way, after that whenever i try to select recovery, what i get is the black screen
This was the case all the recoveries except twrp . In that case, it showed black screen when tried to get into recovery, but if I wait for a minute, the screen times out and after waking up the display by pressing power button, what i see is the twrp recovery window saying "swipe to unlock " but unfortunately touch doesnot work, so i can not unlock it, therefore cannot use it
this issue is present only in phones XT1033 that was pre-installed with 4.4.4
I have tried almost all the recoveries, also tried modified recovery method from modaco
those who have OTAed from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 were successful in running custom recoveries, but i couldn't find anyone with preinstalled 4.4.4 running a working custom recovery
anyway, somehow the root access can be obtained by sacrificing a working recovery
So, I post this,hoping someone will find a solution soon and if anyone has any feedback please share your suggestions and experiences
edit: problem solved
This is just to inform all those who got their phones with 4.4.4 pre-installed and were suffering from black screen when booted into recovery.
A new version of Philz recovery is released by its maintainer for moto G , which is compatible with the newest bootloader or baseband ( whatever )
Just go to Phil'z recovery and download the latest version ( only 6.57.5 or above )
Devs plz.
can any devs look into this issue, i guess every new motog users from india is facing this issue.. I found another one who bought motog today ( in india ) facing this issue, and many others too...
I updated yesterday, everything went smooth even the flashing of the recovery which I see some people are having trouble with.
Only problem: The touch screen doesn't work while I'm in TWRP.
Only way i got it to work:
Enter TWRP
Wait till screen locks
Open screen - Then the touch works (If I manually lock it then wake it up the touch screen still doesn't work).
I've looked around and I don't think its Lollipop related as people encountered this problem before.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance to everyone who helps~

Okay, so I was in the process of putting a custom ROM onto my LG G3s, however, as soon as I flashed in a custom recovery menu (TWRP) and rebooted my touch screen no longer works. The display screen itself is also darker and has "lines" in it, not really sure on how to describe it? I was using a version of TWRP that was "supposedly" supported on the G3s. My phone was running KitKat 4.3.2 I believe. . . With the G3s you have to do some kind of patch for the boot to be able to use a custom recovery without resetting the phone in the process, and I had done that. I know that was not the immediate cause of this problem for I used Flashify to flash the custom recovery. It worked all fine up until I rebooted the phone. I tried looking around, but didn't find anything that was even close to my problem. If someone could be of some help or provide some insight it would be much appreciated.
Hi, i have problem with my android phone Pelitt T1. After install official stock ROM (X5057_OTD_S552_PELITT_37_V0.1.2_S1010) with SmartPhone Flash Tool the touchscreen is not working properly. The touchscreen responds to a location other than the touch point. I cannot go to home screen, because buttons on screen like Next is so hard to touch. Android system is reseted to factory setting. I can reinstall firmware, but the result is the same. I can go to Android Recovery Mode. There is some ZIP repair pack or something other to fix, this problem? Thx.
