Awesome. Thanks acejavelin and h@ns1976. It worked beautifully. I'll be updating my checklist so when I need to do this again, I can. Thanks again to both of you.

---------- Post added at 05:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------

I did that and it didn't work. I went ahead and flashed the beta zip file and, so far, no problems. Root checker sees it is rooted. Would the beta have already failed or would it fail later?

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 05:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 AM ----------

I wish I'd read your link before installing the beta.zip. Oh, well. I assume it didn't work because I never installed it, I only input the echo line. I will restore the last backup I made before installing the beta and try again when I get a chance.

Thanks again.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Would have failed on first boot, at least in the one case I saw it fail. If it works you should fine and you can update to current via the Play Store and the update the binary in the app.

Glad it worked, although I am curious as to why the "proper" method failed, but this isn't my rooting thread so I'll let it go.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
The proper method failed because I never installed it. I only input the echo command.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
You don't need to do that... Root is root... Just update the SuperSU app via the Play Store, open the app and update the binary... No need to redo the whole thing, you're good to go.

---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------

You don't have to install TWRP... I'll be updating my root guide this weekend for more clarity, it's a wip.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
Good. Ive updated supersu from the play store. Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h@ns1976:
Never had any problems with Su 2.62-3. every other version gave problems with wifi with several people ( including myself) in one of the other root threads.

The linked beta always fixed that problem.. installing the Beta is fine if you can't live with an older version update it through play store and you have the latest stable version..

The whole "echo systemless" thing is making things unnecessary complicated.. root is as simple as flashing the right Su file for most devices.

The difficult part is how to restore everything if something goes wrong.

Hrmpf...hrmpf. I didn't get a hrmpf outta that guy.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h@ns1976:
I think he was a bit to technical for you.. but everything he said was right. Try to make yourself familiar with fastboot/adb and the commands it's your lifesaver if your in trouble.

It isn't as hard as it looks. [emoji6]
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
I was bringing a little levity to the thread from Blazing Saddles in honor of Gene Wilder's death.

I agree. I think I've got fastboot down. Adb is another story. I used adb, i believe, when I was getting stock back. Not sure though, I've learned, done so much with this in the last few weeks.

Do you have any adb pointers?

Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h@ns1976:
Sorry i really can't help you with Adb i only know some little basics. But if you search through xda there probably will be some tutorial on how to use it correctly.. If you have fastboot down you can probably get your self out of the most common problems..
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
Yeah. Just worried about getting back to stock under worst case scenerio.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h@ns1976:
You might want to get some stock img. files which you can flash through fastboot to get back to stock in case of some serious trouble and it might be wise to flash TWRP permanently instead of booting into it if you need it, but that's a personal choice. I always have a some stock img. files on my pc just in case my TWRP back up failed or gets lost.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
It was my understanding that by not installing twrp, i would be able to take ota updates.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
You don't need to worry about ADB for going back to stock it's not needed, fastboot will do everything.

ADB can be handy, but unless your really into custom modifying your device via the command line it isn't necessary at all.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
So for future reference to myself: (bootloader must be unlocked)

1. stock image from Motorola - CLARK_RETUS_MPH24.49-18_18_retus_US.zip (not sure here).

2. twrp image - motoxp-twrp-3.0.2-0-clark.img (fastboot boot motoxp-twrp-3.0.2-0-clark.img from bootloader).

3. supersu - UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip (inside twrp: Advanced/Terminal enter: "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu" then install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip or latest stable supersu release (which should be in the Play Store) within twrp)

Can you please tell me what is the fastboot command to input when flashing back to stock image? And do I leave it as a zip?

Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
It's a whole series of commands, you unzip the firmware (pretty sure there is an 18-4 that is newer) and follow the tutorial in Developer section, or if you feel really ambitious use the XML file in the firmware package to build your own fastboot commands.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h@ns1976:
This list should do the trick.

Be aware off the line "fastboot erase userdata" this will wipe everything!

You need to extract the zip.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porterx:
I'll go back and check that. I I remember it being a lot more involved than samsung/Odin was.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Actually, it's not complicated, just a bit more too it.

Phone Boots to Bootloader

Hey. So I have an issue on my phone that I do not know how to fix. Whenever I turn on the phone, it goes to the bootloader screen, where there i press the power button on the option "Start". This then boots it properly. How can i fix it so that it goes straight to the OS and bypasses the bootloader???

Attempted to load one of the developers stock images on my phone, upgrading from 5.1.1 to MM, and it failed every time, even after wiping data/dalv/cache, so I'm going to attempt to update via OTA means now instead of messing with it myself. Once done, can this be rooted or will going the OTA route not allow root? I'm presently BL unlocked and rooted. I unrooted and removed xposed framework and even did a system wipe and it didn't work, so not sure if I had a corrupted zip or what but it def should have worked, but didn't.

My phone is not fully booting up.

I had twrp and CM 13 but wanted to go back to full stock. So I tried to fastboot the firmware from the thread firmware and stuff. At that point it wiped everything including twrp and would not install the firmware and was pretty much worthless with no Rom or twrp. So at that point I found a restore toolkit. And it looked like it installed 5.1 just fine but it wont pass the unlocked bootloader screen and keeps on rebooting. So I tried to remove the unlocked boot loader screen via fast boot but its not working. Can someone help me.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
There shouldn't be any issue fastboot flashing the stock Marshmallow firmware, it is known to work well. If you do it manually via fastboot, where is it failing? If it's gpt partition table that's not unusual, just skip it and move on. Radios are known to fail on first attempt, try again, otherwise provide a lot of the terminal session while flashing and we can probably assist

is the moto x pure rootable w kingroot/kingoroot?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevev:
I am not sure. I used bootloader unlock to root. I don't trust kingroot.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
No. You must unlock the bootloader and flash a systemless root. Only root method that works.

I can't speak for the MXPE specifically on Kingoroot/Kingroot method, but on the Moto G 2015 and G4 (very similar in this regard) it will soft-brick the device if the bootloader is unlocked, and has hard-bricked devices with a locked bootloader. I would expect the same result on the Pure/Style.

Moto X hotspot doesn't work after root

I was using my moto X Pure edition as a hotspot to connect my laptop to the internet, and it was working just fine until I rooted the phone a couple days ago.

I don't have the phone yet (it's on it's way though), however I have a n00b question about dealing with SIM cards on a non-carrier specific device. Can I just take out my current SIM (I'm on Verizon BTW) pop it in the Moto X and forget about it? Or will I need to contact the carrier (or go in the store) and have them set some things up? I've never used a carrier unlocked phone before, although I did use Cyanogen and other custom roms for a while on my old Droid RAZR Maxx (xt912). Will just popping out my SIM from my current phone (HTC One M9) be sort of like that? Just curious for when I do finally receive the phone.

Hi. I'm having issues installing TWRP recovery onto my Moto X Pure.

I was able to unlock the bootloader following the steps in this guide.

Now, when I attempt to install TWRP, the installation shows to be successful in command prompt. It's only when I try to boot into recovery that I get this screen every time:

This even happens after trying to install TWRP with the WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit. Exact same thing. "Successful" TWRP installation, boot into recovery, "No command" screen.

What am I doing wrong? I'm sure it's just one super obvious thing that I'm overlooking.

Help!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PiousInquisitor:
You are sure you are unlocked? Does it say as much in bootloader mode?

After you flash twrp, how are you trying to enter recovery? You should, after flashing and while still in bootloader mode, use the arrow keys to select recovery then hit the power button. Twrp should ask if you want to make it permanent or something to that effect, swipe to accept that option.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondroid:
Not so sure it's just this phone, but is there a way to reach the dimness that comes from adaptive brightness without having adaptive brightness turned on? I've notice lots of brightness changes when my environment had not and its been slightly annoying. I just figured I'd turn off the adaptive brightness, no problem. Now the lowest setting on the brightness slider is considerably brighter than what adaptive brightness will give me. I like that darker screen when I'm up late at night.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Affinity2412:
Hi. Thanks for the response.

Yes, I'm definitely unlocked. When I'm in bootloader, the 3rd line from the bottom is yellow and says "Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3"

After "installing" TWRP, I go into bootloader, navigate with the arrow keys to recovery mode, select it with the power button, I wait a second or two (there used to be a "Bootloader is unlocked" warning, but I used Hashbang's script to remove it), then the "No Command" screen appears.

Do I need to relock the bootloader and try the whole process again? I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here.

EDIT: Also, I'm using a Motorola stock cable and have it plugged into a USB 2.0 port.

This is going to sound like a pretty stupid question but I'm one step away from buying the Moto X Pure 16GBs and I haven't used phones with removable SD cards since like 3 android versions ago.

Is there any downsides with going for the 16GBs version + a big micro SD card as opposed to going with the 32/64 version? I'm between this phone and the Nexus 6 but really the only advantage the N6 seems to have is the bigger storage for the same price.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
There isn't really any disadvantage. For $499 you can have the Moto with 64gb included, or buy the 16gb model for $399 and spend maybe $50 on a 64gb class 10 sd card and end up with more storage for $50 less. I'd much prefer the unified storage but it isn't worth an extra $50 to me.

Personally though, if I could I'd be spending the extra few dollars and getting the Nexus 6P with 64gb for $550, it's a better phone. Unfortunately I can't do that though, I live in Australia and the 64gb Nexus is going to be sold at the outrageous price of $999 here.

The process is the same to restore to stock on XT1572 and XT1575, in fact, it's the same on all current Moto devices but you need the correct firmware image for the device.

No modem on XT1575

Hi. I don't think I'm innovative in my screwup, it's just that I have been unsuccessful in finding another similar-enough description.

I was initially trying to root my phone. After screwing up and almost bricking it, I have decided to cut my losses and as long as it works I'm mostly happy. Of course rooted would be great.

I don't know for sure what's on the phone now, but it boots into what appears to be Android 6 (good) but without wifi or presumably the ability to make calls (bad). I've tried

sudo fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

sudo fastboot erase modemst1

sudo fastboot erase modemst2

sudo fastboot flash fsg.mbn

sudo fastboot erase cache

in various combinations and orders to no avail. Also, some of those commands are rather cryptic to me. What do "fsg" and "HLOS" stand for? What is an mbn file? What are modemst1 and 2? Does the first command write stuff into modemst[12] that shouldn't be there? Does the fsg command?

At one point I had supersu 2.46 on there, which explains why the modem wouldn't work (I think), but it should be gone by now.

What should I do now?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Fsg and hlos are not commands, they are files in the stock firmware that are images of partitions on the device. Fsg.bin is your baseband and NON-HLOS.bin is your LTE/WiFi I believe. Modemst1/2 are states/configuration storage partitions. What firmware image and device model are using.

Also SuperSU 2.46 is not supported in Marshmallow, 2.62-3 beta or the current release must be uses and manual systemless mode.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eben_k:
Thank you.

Hm, it wants me to go through the whole "first time you've booted this" setup. Is there a way to find out using adb or fastboot?
