press and hold the power and volume down button for at least 10 seconds till the screen goes off then let go of ONLY POWER BUTTON while still holding the volume down button this will boot your device into bootloader...you can do this with or without usb connected... hope i helped you
actually, with this root it takes its sweeeet time to boot. just leave it and it will boot. it just takes a little bit for some reason

You had Android L originally correct? Did you know that in the changelog for the OTA that it says you CAN'T downgrade to another version of android after the update? I'm not 100% sure but I don't think you can flash a 4.4.4 system image anymore. So now you might have to wait for the System Image of Lollipop for the XT1064 to be released. I don't know how long that might be.
What were the failures you faced when you tried to flash the system images? Do you remember if anything flashed at all?
Also, the root method for the XT1064 causes takes it's time to boot past the unlocked bootloader warning; as NiekoNieves said. If you know nothing was flashed then you could leave it on for a few minutes and check if it boots into L.

can somebody please help me? my screen just went black at work today and it does nothing at all now. if I hold the power button it vibrates once. if I hold power+volume down I get to recovery. I tried to reboot from there and I get the unlocked bootloader warning screen and from there it just goes to a black screen. so I get back to recovery and installed my back up and that didn't help at all. somebody please help me.
So the bootloader is unlocked, what else have you done to the phone?
You may need to reflash it with rsdlite.
OP you need to provide more details. are you getting the M logo? is it bootlooping? is the phone doing ANYTHING but getting in to recovery?
load the fastboot menu and use mfastboot to flash the system, boot and recovery images. you should be able to bring the phone back to life without losing data.

the only thing ive done to the phone is put xposed framework on it and gravity box. that was prob a month ago tho. this is the first prob ive had with the phone.
You may want to follow this guide to return the phone to stock firmware:

You could also try commenting out the line that overwrites user data so you don't lose your data.
Try plugging your phone into the original charger and then boot to recovery, from their try rebooting while still plugged in. If that doesn't work try this again but wipe just the caches and reboot while plugged in. I have had a screen go black before on other devices and plugging the original charger(car and most others didn't work) in and booting to recovery then rebooting would get it working again.
PS When you boot to recovery check your battery level.
well...I used the moto x toolkit and returned to stock using that. everything booted up. so far everything is looking good. lost all my data but that's not that big of a deal.

Hello,
I have a VZW Moto X with an unlocked bootloader through SunShine. I just FXDed to 4.4.4 but I cannot get the phone to take any recovery image. I've tried TWRP latest and the one before, Hashcode's custom Safestrap, and CWM touch and none work. When I attempt to boot into recovery, the phone either boots normally or just turns off. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm at a loss for what to do. I'm really looking for root on 4.4.4; that's the only reason I left my 4.4 rooted locked rom.
Thanks,
Nick
EDIT I figured it out. I was hitting power instead of volume up when trying to select recovery. Now I feel like an idiot.
happens to everyone. you would think the power button would select things..
So today I set about unlocking the bootloader and rooting my Moto X 2014 Pure Edition XT1095.
Unlocking the bootloader went just fine. Then I went to root it. I booted the pure2014sb.img but it didn't work. The phone would just hang on the Motorola logo. Then I read somebody later said that doesn't work on lollipop, so I booted the CF-Auto-Root-victara-victaratmo-xt1095.img instead. That showed me the rooting status page thing before it rebooted, and then rebooted again, but when it fired up after that it was still hanging on the Motorola logo.
Then I attempted this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56928477#post56928477
Now the phone will not even hang on the logo, it gets to the animated moto logo part and then turns off half way through. I cannot get back into fastboot state either. It just doesn't respond to power + vol down at all.
EDIT: Actually scratch the not being able to get into fastboot state thing. I just had to hold the buttons down for way longer than normal. I just kept holding them until it showed something. It ended up being like 15 seconds instead of 3-4 like usual.
Help!

Same happened to me early this morning when I was trying to install 5.0.2
You have to flash any firmware you want just avoid to flash the modem and there ate several post here in the general section
Just remember. Don't flash the modem unless is the same firmware you have or else you will lose signal.
Regards
Thanks for the input. I used the instructions in this thread to get my phone back to working condition:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/guide-update-xt1095-pure-edition-to-t2937074
I was unable to get it to pick up the 4.4.4 to 5.0 update zip in recovery mode, so I just used the regular OTA update to do it. After that I booted the CF-Auto-Root-victara-victaratmo-xt1095.img and it worked!

Hi
I have an AT&T XT1058 with locked bootloader, on 4.4.4
I tried to rest it to factory, but it got stuck on 'Erasing...' (with the little droid) for more than an hour, so I reset it.
Since then it won't boot, only keep stuck on 'Erasing...'. I've tried reflashing it with ATT_XT1058_4.4.4-KXA21.12-L1.26_CFC_1FF both using RSD lite and manually using mfastboot, but no luck - the phone still boots to 'Erasing...' and sometimes after that to the recovery.
I didn't find anything in relevant threads. Does anyone have an idea?
Selecting 'Factory' in the bootloader seemed to fix it.
It is more comlicated than that
The phone does boot after selecting 'factory' in bootloader, but only once - turning the phone off and on again brings it back to its 'erasing...' state. Besides that the phone seems to not be able to charge the battery

Were you able to get this resolved? I have a xt1095 doing the same thing when I flash a stock recovery. Just shows the android guy and just stuck at erasing... When I flash TWRP it doesn't get stuck at the "erasing..." anymore but just boots straight into TWRP.
Sorry for the late response, I missed the notification on your message.
I wasn't able to fix it, returned it to motorola.
Hey guys,
I have a Moto G 2014 here that is stuck in a boot loop. It's on stock recovery, not rooted and the bootloader is locked. It was running 5.x and had an update available (I'm pretty sure it was the stagefright update). After installing it it restarted and got stuck on the Motorola boot logo. Twice it's gotten past the boot logo (I think after letting the battery run out and wiping cache it does this) and shows a popup "Android is upgrading - Starting apps" with a spinning circle but it doesn't go past that. I can get into fastboot and stock recovery.
My question is, with a locked bootloader, is there any way to get it to boot again without losing user data?

At these stage you need to flash Stock firmware again via Fastboot , i guess there is no other way to boot up !

I guess no other way left or else try once wiping cache from stock recovery and check whether it boots if not then you have to flash the whole firmware with loosing your data.
