[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sir_moises:
Guys I need help please. So I have a moto g2014 ( XT1068 ) (non gplay version) and I tried installing a Custom ROM (I don't quite remember the name of the ROM). My phone was rooted and I had TWRP recovery. But when I tried to install the ROM I first click on "wipe system" so my stock ROM was no logern existing. When I flashed the Custom ROM everything was allright but there was a signal bug that when I hit "ok" it appears again, fed up with that I decided to wipe that ROM from my phone but I forgot that I have no backup of my stock ROM. Tried installikg KK (the phone came with that SO but I updated to Lollipop as soon as I could) and then the TWRP stopped working (and it seems to have dissapeared becausd I get the "recovery fail" at the bootloader screen when trying to enter recovery mode). Now I'm stuck in the Moto loading screen and nothing else happens. Help guys, please!!! (bootloader is ulocked btw) ???

Problems during the Blank-flash.bat

Hi,

I'm trying it for my MOTO G 1st gen, because it had problems during the Lollipop 5.0.1 instalation.

During the blank-flash.bat execution I had problems (FAILED (blank-flash:greet-device:error reading packet)) can you help me?

Thanks a lot.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sir_moises:
Well I'm no genious or someone who knows about this so you may have to wait for another user to answer. I just dowloaded the right version of Lollipop 5.0.2 without the Starfight or something update. Obviously it was the one for my region, the Latin American one. You may be using the wrong version of Lollipop (check the region and if it's OTA or soak). Good luck bro, people here are amazing so you are gettig more answers. Don't worry. ?

Do you have the adb files installed on your pc and the correct drivers? Maybe you could use some codes for entering bootloader but that is just if your phone is recognize by the pc it is plugged in. Other than that I don't know how to help you. Sorry. I hope someone else can help you better. Good luck!

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hakneo:
I have UART adapter and cables. Previously I revived MR3020 router, and a Pi. This is done by using Telnet to flash raw images directly to hardware where signature checks are not considered. However, I am unsure about Moto G as the most important thing is to find interface ports on motherboard.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FabioSan:
Surely it has, I'm positively sure xD

Technically with uart we could overwrite all the actual Moto G with a full backup (full literally) of a working Moto G. Also maybe before overwrite we should try to save our imei related files etc, or simply overwrite boot IMG related files and folders. The problem is the cable and the G motherboard. Someone have to do tests :/

if you look at the boot loader image on OP's post, you can see the bootloader version number 41.13 however, the version number has a star n bracket after it like this: (*)

what does this star mean and is it supposed to be there?

Im asking because i manually updated by bootloader using flash commands while upgrading to android marshmallow (6.0.1) and i do not see this anywhere on my bootloader screen and im worried that i may have screwed something up, although the phone runs fine.

Hi there, first of all thanks for the tutorial, ive successfully restored my softbricked xt1032, but an annoying new problem came out which was not there before the softbrick, whenever i put in any sim it asks me for a " Sim Network Unlock Code", which by what i've investigated the phone is now "Carrier Locked", since the problem seems to be either the Kernel/Modem/ROM you provided i'd be really grateful if you could provide a workaround about this since i've contacted Motorola and the Carrier and no one seems to want to help in any way.

- I,ve already tried flashing all kinds of Roms, Modems and Kernels.

- My carrier is Telcel in Mexico, (And yes ive already tried the Stock, Telcel ROM Android 5.1, which installs well but never goes beyond the Boot Logo.)

Hope you can help regarding this issue, ive tried pretty much everything i know!.

Is there any way of fixing a corrupted 41.1A bootloader?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dracovoldy:
I have the exact same problem. Was on a slim6 rom before. Tried to return to STOCK_ASIA_RETAIL. All fastboot commands successfully executed but no apparent change. I have the exact same wallpaper, the same layers RRO navbars, everything. I would not need to go to STOCK but since the slim installation is unstable and everything force closes, the phone is unusable.

Additional note: Somehow even TWRP is stuck in the splash screen, so cant flash any other ROM. Even tried to access TWRP using adb, but the TWRP service fails to start.

I fastboot flashed phillz recovery, stock recovery & newer TWRP versions, but nothing happens. Phone still stuck in TWRP screen.

To my surprise I was able to pull my personal files from the internal SD using ADB (which still works btw).

But I'm left with a phone in a zombie unusable condition, it just doesn't react to anything.

Any help from the XDA community would be greatly appreciated. I am still keeping my fingers crossed, so that one day a guide comes up to brick my device (STOCK 5.1 bootloader) and unbrick it using some sort of unbrick tool.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steva-81:
Only with blank-flash for that version of bootloader or higher. If someday leak from Motorola. But I doubt.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willowen100:
Well after a week of solid troubleshooting my XT1039 my bootloader problems come down to TWRP being unable to wipe the misc partition. Before my phone would go straight into TWRP and everytime I connect the USB cable my phone would boot into TWRP.

To get into the ROM I would have to reboot bootloader and select 'Normal Powerup'.

What I suggest to everyone is to install a stock ROM, root with SuperSU installed via TWRP and finally ADB shell from a PC with the following command:-

adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc

I don't know what this command physically does but it certainly wiped my misc partition. After a power down the battery charging indication screen was shown on my screen and my phone no longer booted into TWRP automatically. Holding the power button for a couple of seconds (normal power on procedure) then instantly booted into the ROM.

N.B. My bootloader version is 41.1A

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Camazza:
There's nothing we can do ATM unfortunately. The idea of dumping the bootloader and creating a new singleimage.bin sounded great but I guess the whole file is signed (and not the individual partitions like someone said) and it won't flash. I even tried hex-replacing the partitions but it keeps failing. I'm sure there's a way of fixing it right now, but I guess nobody wants to invest the time and effort into an issue that may be resolved just by waiting a couple of days...

I'll check entire signature.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
If you go to the Motorola site to unlock your bootloader

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

And click the 'get recovery image' link at the bottom you can download OFFICIAL firmware but it's only for moto X and droid RAZR.

These are developer phones and have official firmware released.

Moto g is not a developer phone and does NOT have official firmware released. Any moto g firmware is leaked code which is why its not available from the official Motorola site. The firmware only becomes available on unofficial sites if/when the code gets leaked.

I thought that was pretty common knowledge.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Camazza:
Great. Let us know if you find something. singleimage.bin has a bunch of data at the beginning like partition layout and some other data that may or may not be the signature, after that it's all raw partition data (which is perfectly replaceable, everything matches apart from aboot that is slightly bigger on the 5.0 dump) and padding.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ffosilva:
As I suspected before, there's a signature for each partition only, not a signature for entire file. :( Cleared each partition writing zeroes (/dev/zero) using dd and checked with md5sum. Compared 4.3, 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 singleimage mbn files.

If you can't boot to bootloader, Try first hard reset: press and hold the Power Button for a full 120 seconds while connected to a charger, or power & vol+. Then flash stock ROM with mfastboot.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dracovoldy:
Please try to read atleast before replying.

"I tried to return to STOCK_ASIA_RETAIL using fastboot", this line alone already implies:

1. I am able to access fastboot mode.

2. flashing gpt.bin would fail if using fastboot, since I had written that I got all fastboot commands executing full and properly also implies that I'm using the mfastboot.

P.S. mfastboot-v2 the latest one yes.
