Have you tried any other ROM? I forgot to mention that you have to wipe user data and internal memory (sdcard) too. If cm bootloops, simply reflash it.

P.S. If you're flashing from fastboot, I have attached a zip, extract it in the same folder as the stock ROM files and run the file. Perhaps, you may not need to type all the commands manually.

thanks yeah it's not getting as far as bootlooping, it's not even starting to boot ROMs afaict. i run linux so i'll convert those commands. fingers crossed the stock restores whatever is broken otherwise i'm stuffed?

no i only tried CM not sure if they're some stock-based options worth trying.

edit: sh*t. reflashed stock (latest O2 UK should be correct), bootloops. don't even see the Motorola splash screen (which i had before when it was bootlooping before i flashed anything). seemed to flash ok so really stumped as to what's wrong. nothing useful on screen. i used script attached above except linux version.

what shall i do just relock bootloader and try returning it? any way they can detect it was unlocked?

flash seemed ok..

i can still get into stock recovery and presumably reflash Philz.

edit: actually i've never been able to get into stock recovery! i can only get into motorola fastboot mode or Philz, stock recovery never worked (was first thing i tried to do factory reset), nor do other recoveries load.

any way to check hardware, partitions etc?

found a few references to this problem with no answers

i don't think i broke the phone because it was stuck in bootloop before i started any of this. only thing i had done is several factory resets from within Android OS.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgotter:
Have you ever formatted your internal storage including sdcard. This solved the problem for me when my phone was stuck in bootloops.

Then try sideloading a rom, and reflash the ROM twice (to makes sure it writes to system) and also make sure system is mounted. And post the logs.

If it still doesn't work, reflash the stock ROM manually through fastboot by typing down commands to erase data and system along with cache, and write down system and recovery to phone. Reboot.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smiff2:
thanks how do you format the internal storage? with Philz? which options please.

weirdly, when i reverted to stock with flashboot as logged above, it STILL had the unlocked BL warning screen! ****.

i managed to restore the original motorola screen using the boot.img from the package here http://www.swedroid.se/forum/showthread.php?t=106595

any ideas? either wrong (not stock) boot.img is in the pack from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14

or something else is replacing boot.img? or not flashing right?

right now i have locked BL and stock motorola boot.img and no recovery (afaic) i'm thinking of returning phone like this. anything else i need to do so they won't know it was flashed? a i said, i did not break this phone, it was not booting before i started flashing anything.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgotter:
Go to wipe- advance-data and sdcard and format it. (I don't use philz but remember the same when I did it the last time).

Re-unlock your bootloader before doing this check you phone's status on fastboot. It would show status: 03. And follow the instructions I posted in last thread. Lastly you have the option to relock and return to Motorola service center.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smiff2:
pretty sure i did the format before thanks.. maybe not SD-Card but what has that to do with not booting?

status code 2 shows them its been unlocked, BUT under UK law SOGA i should still be able to get a replacement. from the seller, not Motorola.

shame, would have liked to fix this because they're also out of stock (O2 refurb)

is there no way to do a hardware/memory test from recovery?

edit2: i've arranged an exchange with o2, fairly sure this was hardware failure OR something deep that no one here knows how to fix! shouldnt have tried to fix myself..

edit3: is this phone prone to bootlooping and becoming unfixable? i read in those threads above another user was messing with dev options when this happened. i was disabling some built in Motorola apps, which is the only thing i can think i might have done which broke it. Now i'm nervous i'll break the replacement.. next time i'll either leave the rom alone, or install Philz first and make a backup and home that can get me out of it.. tbh this phone doesn't really need ROM replacement like all the others i've had!

To be clear, this phone wouldn't go into stock recovery, before it had been flashed/rooted (by me, as refurb possibly previous owner had done something). If you get a phone that can't get into recovery, i wouldn't waste your time, send it back.

how to side load rom?

I am trying to push rom throught recovery.

Not able to do it through ADB, tried multiple times, no luck.

How do I sideload it?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgotter:
Even I don't know how to.

But I know a workaround.

Make sure you have adb folder in C: drive such that the path to adb is "C:\adb". Copy the Rom file you want to flash to adb folder and rename it to "CM.zip" . Connect your phone to PC in recovery mode (i. You should have recovery open in your phone and not fastboot). In adb type the command

<code> adb push C:\adb\CM.zip /data/media/0/ </code>

You should see that file gets copied to sdcard in few minute. And next flash the zip through recovery on your phone.

Good luck.

Make sure you have ROM.zip in "C:\adb\ROM.zip" . also the name of the folder and files should be exact and in the same uppercase or lowercase. You need not to write "code" behind command.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rchatham:
Man, I REALLY hope someone can help me on this... I've spent six hours today trying to get this to work.

I updated my Boost Moto G to 4.4.4 last night and then decided to downgrade back to 4.4.2. That was dumb. Starting getting errors and then panicked and tried to do a factory reset. I wiped all the data off my phone using the stock recovery tool figuring, hey, it'll be easy to reflash the 4.3 stock rom! Really smart. So now... I'm without an OS.

Something that might be the key to all this: all of the recovery tools say I can't mount /data/. I had the same error mounting /system/, but I used fastboot to format that partition. I can't seem to format the data partition at all.

So here's where I am now: I have flashed Philz Recovery, but I can't get any ROMs to install and boot correctly. CM 4.4.4 is the only one that installd without any errors, but it just circles at the boot screen (I've installed this several times - both the latest stable and latest nightly build.) Tried installing stock 4.3 and 4.4.2, but adb sends the error "unable to write data 'protocol fault (no status)'." I've tried all of these using the latest Philz, CWM, and TWRP.

NOTE: I just installed OMNI 4.4.4, but that also just gets stuck at the loading screen. What this is telling me is that 4.4.4 seems to be the only thing I can load now, but for whatever reason, it gets stuck at hanging - maybe because the data partition is corrupt. But I don't know how to repair it. Please, any ideas?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rchatham:
Update: I have somehow managed (by flashing half a dozen roms) to finally boot - I have CarbonRom up and running! The bad news: I have no mobile carrier. No voice, no data.

I wanted to use DFS CDMA Tool to change my phone over to Page Plus, and I have the Motorola QC Diag port up and running, but when I open the port in DFS CDMA, it says that the device name is [] and device ID is 00000000. When I try to send the SPC to unlock the device, it says CPS_ERROR. Any way around this? If there was just a stock 4.4.4 verizon firmware, I'd move to that... I tried downgrading to verizon 4.4.2 again after I got CarbonRom up, and it just got stuck in an infinite bootloop.

First of all flash a 4.4 firmware on your device. Either via zip version or mfastboot version.

Then go for any ROM you want, everything should be fine.

I picked mine up on March 25th and since I'm not due for an upgrade until this September I decided to purchase via the edge program. I'm still on the fence about the edge program and supposedly I have 6 more days to return the phone and cancel the edge upgrade. Anyone else get their M8 using Edge and if so what are your feelings about it? Also if anyone's been using Edge for a while now your input is appreciated too. Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] whirl08:
I've been using it since the m7 came out, no qualms with it. Raises your bill a bit. Got this on edge as well.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
Got mine on Edge. Was planning to buy it but when I added the 14.99 x12 +40 something initial it works out to me about 20 more overall. For me it was worth knowing I can turn my phone in after a year as I always want the newest phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] afinita:
My bill went down by 2 dollars by going with edge, so it's a win in my book. Did you get the 10 or 25(if over 10gigs) bill credit? That makes it a no brainer for me.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pettigrew95:
I had 8 GB of data they upped me to 10 and said my bill would be the same
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] steven6282:
IMO, the edge is only good to get on if you are either getting a cheaper phone and want to stay off contract, really want to stay off contract with a more expensive phone and not have to pay the large off contract price up front, or you like to upgrade phones a lot and have the money to throw around for it.

For the M8, if they did it correctly, it would be like an extra 25 dollars a month for 2 years. It's supposed to be the off contract price broken out and financed basically over a 2 year period. You can upgrade at any time however, without renewing your contract by paying for at least half the cost off the phone and turning the phone in. Meaning for the M8, you'd have to pay at least 300 dollars totaly (either by 25 dollars a month or whatever the difference is between 300 and what you've paid so far when you want to upgrade).

Doesn't sound like a very good deal to me. But then again, I still have unlimited data :) If I was forced to give up my unlimited data for some reason, I might would consider the edge, but most likely I'd just buy an off contract more reasonable cost phone like a nexus line phone or something. The amount price of off contract phones is mostly ridiculous and way higher than they should be. These things could be sold for 300 - 350 dollars and the companies would still probably be making a profit, you can look at the Nexus 5 to tell that.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] whskytango:
It really isn't a bad deal, you get a credit for $25 if on a 10gb or more plan, so your bill actually goes down just a little and you don't get locked in, I feel the edge program is a win win really

How does it lock you in? My contract still expires this September.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mc_365:
I'm on the fence about edge

I got the phone on edge cause I can't bring myself to spend $600 for a phone that I make less than 10 calls a month on. I use it more for music and occasional video, some ebook reading, little bit of web browsing, and once and a blue GPS. So the question was is my unlimited data worth $600 today? I use an average of 1.5 Gigs/month on edge the gave me 6 Gigs for the same price + $14 month for the phone financing. I paid $80 down on the phone. My thinking was; sooner or later VZW will just stop offering unlimited data to month to month users. So how would I feel if I spent $600 and in 2 months time I get a letter from VZW saying Unlimited data is no longer a service tier that they offer on a month to month basis. Now I have a phone that I cant take to another carrier(?) And I still don't have unlimited.

I'm still thinking about going back to the store before next week and switching back. I wonder if they will charge me a restocking fee, to switch me, meaning return my phone then do a new sale or will they just let me pay the difference of the retail price and my down payment?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] deeznuts:
I got edge program since my Bill overall at the end of the day is the same as it was every month on ATT. Basically pay the same every month with Verizon as I did on ATT but can upgrade my device every year (or sooner if I wanted personally) and again pay the same every month. Versus paying less a month and $199 or whatever phones cost and be locked in a few years on that device.

It's a promotion I believe that started around day 3 this device came out on Verizon. When in store I got $20/month credit. They said call customer service tomorrow and I will get $25/month credit a s long as I have Edge. I believe my Edge cost is about $25/month so with the $25/month credit it's like it's free and can upgrade whenever I want zero down. Win win, call customer service, was quick and easy, took 5min to enable this.

I used Edge to get the M8 as well. Verizon got me with their clever marketing and "Edge open-enrollment". I don't use much data at all, so the way I see it is this: I reduced my data plan from 4 gbs to 2 gbs, plus the 10$ credit. My bill will actually be less than what it was before and I have a brand new M8. And in a month if I decide I just can't live without the S5 then I will pay the remaining 200$ to Edge up and get the S5. Win win. The only hitch is my custom Loki'd S4. I plan on keeping it and just paying the fee for not turning in the device. It will prolly be the last custom bootloader samsung i ever own after all.
