[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joashk218:
The first time I got my phone was about two days ago. I got the MotoG2 from ebay at such a cheap price ($20), I won the auction and so yeah (26 bids). HOWEVER, this is what the description says from the seller:"This smart phone sells working as-is because screen is cracked, LCD has liquid damage, other components work as they are supposed to. SIM slot/cellular feature has not been tested on any networks. Customer data have been deleted from smartphone. *Battery life and performance on used electronic devices can not be guaranteed. * Entire screen is cracked; there are many scratches and scuffs on the bezels and on the back side. Smart phone sells with battery and non-OEM box.

I finally got it and shipped to my house, on'ed it and everything worked fine the camera, audio, basically it was brand new except for the front screen that is shattered. Later on, i decided to root my Android phone with KingRoot on kingroot.net and it was fast and easy. I didn't know what to do after, my friend told me about it and you can do many things with root. My phone was successfully rooted. I was browsing Google Play untill i saw an app that says "boot animations" I was like "Cool, gonna test it out" so it did install and i opened it. It has a ton of animations and i chose one to be as my boot animation. Unfortuanately, I so stupid forgot to backup the previous original (Motorola boot animation). It now takes a bit longer to boot up (idk whether it was the animation itself, or the fact that my phone is now rooted). I decided to uninstall the root, hoping the boot animation was gone(also kinda blurry). Well it did not, but i was like whatever. Phone still worked fully, and decided to stuck it up with that boot animation.

Now that my phone is unrooted, i decided to root it again since it did not work. I tried to install an app that AdAway and it did work. Ads were gone and i was happy.

Until. A motorola screen popped up saying it has a system update. I forgot what the update is about. All i remember is something do with "stabilizing and other stuff" and takes about 10 min.

So I did install it, phone off'd and on with an android logo with a progress bar. After it was complete A picture of an android lying down with an exclamation mark saying "Error". I was like wtf, what happened. I couldn't boot up my device because of this error. I off'd my phone and then on'd it again. It now says "no command." with the same android guy. I gave up and tried to "wipe data and personalized content" "THIS CANNOT BE UNDONE" so i just accepted it. I off'd my phone and boot it up. There was an infinite boot loop, and tried to do as much as i could. But it always led to this(phone on's then offs a few seconds later then on a few seconds later and a few seconds later An android guy says"Erasing..."few seconds later phone off's again. REPEAT!" It was like this and left it the entire night with a cable charged to it so it will not die. So its now unusable and i do not know wtf i should do. The same friking Android guy saying "erasing" i dont think its erasing because when i hold the (power button + Volume up) it says "data wipe complete". It was just repeating over and over and over again with the say frikin vibration everytime it turns on. Tried to Enter Factory, Recover, normal recovery, wipe data again. Basically i did everything that was reasonable that would fix this boot loop. HELP PLS!

Sorry have bad english.
