[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blacksheepbahh:
I've searched high and low on this website to try and find a solution to my current issue and I have found nothing but more problems, so I'm going to try posting a new thread for help.

Yesterday I was in the process of unrooting my phone, I wasn't able to use some of the apps the way I wanted to. While deleting some extraneous applications powered by busybox, and then busybox itself, I lost connection to Google Services. I tried numerous times to reset the device, but even after factory reset and recovery I could not connect to Google Services (network connection working on wifi and data) and could not sign in to the device. So I decided to flash a new image to the phone to try to get rid of whatever the issue was.

I downloaded the XT1095 image from Motorola's website and used their instructions to flash it to the device. My device was originally XT1096 from Verizon, but I could not locate an image for that one, and read that I could flash to the XT1095 image for Marshmallow access anyway. I don't remember what errors I received. I was able to boot the device and sign in through Google services, but my network connection to Verizon was lost, I received an error that the network was unavailable. So I tried to work around that for a while but could not reinstate voice or data services. I could send SMS for some reason. I decided to try flashing a new image. I tried with the image I received from Motorola again, but I could not flash the system.img, received an error message "load_file: could not allocate [I don't have the number] bytes" and couldn't find a workaround, even using -P at the end of the system command.

I downloaded VICTARA_TMO_XT1095_6.0_MPE24.49-18_cid9_CFC.xml.zip from another thread on this site, I can't find the link to it now. I flashed with the instructions from this thread http://xdaforums.com/moto-x-play/general/reminder-how-to-downgrade-6-0-to-5-1-1-t3267253 This had the separate chunk system files, so I could flash it in smaller pieces, and that worked fine, the only error was with the fsg.mbn file, I received a permission denied error. Here is a copy of the command sheet from this image flash.

Upon rebooting device, it would not move past the "bootloader unlocked" screen, which I assume means that some file is missing but I don't know what to fix. When I turn the device off from the bootloader unlocked screen, it automatically returns to Fastboot Flash Mode now. I've tried checking many different threads for similar issues but have not found any solutions.

Troubleshooting:

I used fastboot for the first flash, then switched to mfastboot.

I have tried using RSD Lite but it does not recognize my device.

Cleared cache and userdata through mfastboot.

Thank you for any help you can offer!
