My moto X has a problem , let me show you the log file first
-Unlocked using motorola's website
-Flashed TWRP recovery
-Created a backup
-[MISTAKE 1]Wiped using advanced wipe
-Everything including the backup I created got wiped ,with no OS
-Mounted and tried to install CyanogenMod 11
-[ERROR 1]This rom is supported by ghost xt1053(my model number) ,and your device is . (like just a dot) //Cannot install the zip file
-[BRICKED]
-Then I searched what to do ,downloaded "TMO_213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US" firmware
-Using fastboot ,I flashed the firmware using the following commands
After downloading the image for your device:
Unzip the image.
Put your device in fastboot mode.
NOTE: You must use the Motorola fastboot utility to flash (included in the Darwin/, Linux/ or Windows/ directory). Please do NOT use the Android fastboot utility
Follow the flashing steps in the .xml file that was included in the package.
A typical flashing sequence includes all these partitions, but might vary depending on your product - so please use the sequence in the .xml file in your package:
$ fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
$ fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
$ fastboot reboot-bootloader
$ fastboot flash logo logo.bin
$ fastboot flash boot boot.img
$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
$ fastboot flash system system.img
$ fastboot erase modemst1
$ fastboot erase modemst2
$ fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
$ fastboot reboot
You also have the option to erase all the data on your device with
$ fastboot erase userdata
$ fastboot erase cache
After performing this sequence, you can relock your device with
$ fastboot oem lock
-It showed an error During locking the device
-The phone finally started working [UNBRICKED?]
-My sim card wasnt detecting
-So I searched more ,and checked my IMEI
-Dialed *#06# and got "IMEI 0"
-For confirmation ,I went again to settings->about->Status
-Everything was fine except "IMEI 0",and "IMEI SV 00"
-I couldnt find anything online except changing my IMEI ,which is ,one: illegal and two: not possible since I do not have Engineering mode app in my phone
-Headed over to the service center and they told me that my motherboard is gone ,you have to pay 291.050 US Dollars to change it
-But if the motherboard is gone ,how can my phone work ?
Here is my question to you guys ,what should I do ? Can I do anything to get my phone working again ? Please help me as I am not using a phone ,and I really need to use this one .
Thanks in advanced
Sorry for my bad English
I think there was a step you missed there when flashing:
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
and it's better to use Motorola fastboot aka mfastboot instead of regular old fastboot. if you don't have it just Google for it.
for a more complete guide see option 5 on this site: http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-ReturnToStock.html
Also there is absolutely no need for that last step you tried, fastboot oem lock... that will relock your bootloader which is totally unnecessary. you don't need it for otas or anything else, and as for warranty your phone is already flagged as unlocked and relocking it won't change that.

It's OK dude first step is to relax and realize that losing imei is not a new thing, it's happened to countless others. what that means is there should be a huge amount of info on what people have tried and what worked and didn't work. You'll find all the info by using Google search and changing keywords.
some keywords to try:
fastboot imei
Motorola recover imei
Restore imei
imei 0
recover imei
efs imei
and so on. if you read through them and feel you're not up to it, or if you try everything and nothing works, you have another option maybe:
Take it in / send it in for repair to Motorola or other (certified) repair shop
good luck.
BTW: The original box the phone comes in has your imei written on it. otherwise you can try the fastboot getvar method but that might or might not work.
Can you try to falsh using RSD lite it Completly safe and esay process . Try it once

if it keeps force closing then you are not returning the phone to stock. because if you did that would not happen.
so i need you to explain to me what you are using when returning your phone to stock because it is not taking for some reason.

yeah I've tried it about ten times now and i think theres something else from the verizon root that mustve gotten flashed and is causing this
Well you have to flash the NON-HLOS.bin or it is not going to work.
Why not just download the full Sprint firmware file(I believe you've already done this) download rsdlite, remove the var line from the xml, and with one click your phone will work fine again.

I will be honest wit you people, I really mess up on my phone.
I was trying to upgrade to lollipop on my AT&T moto X.
I miss the step that I need to unlock my bootloader, so I just came directly to install the pure edition Brazilian rom.
When the phone restart I notice that my phone was not reading my simcard, and It is because my EFS file was deleting and Now I dont have IMEI...
Unfortunately I did not backup my EFS file.
Now my radio is not working, I did already search on all the webs a solutions but I with no luck.
Can anybody help me please!
How did you flash the ROM? Via fast boot? If that's the case you only mess with the modems. Try to download the firmware of at&t and flash the modem and the fsg files. Same happened to me when I converted my Moto x 1097 to 1095. Is not that bad just try my guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/guide-xt1097-to-xt1095-nextel-t2972693

How did you update then? Side load update? The problem you have is the modem as I said, nothing more
here is the firmware 4.4.4 of AT&T http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=3927248220&shareid=4222363237&third=0 unzip the file and try to flash the modems via fastboot, that should be enough.

I did try with on the motorola page, but it said that my phone is not compatible to unlock, so I just try installing the braziliam rom, In the process the phone shows a few error and when it restore there was not signal until I realize that I do not have IMEI on it.

Do you have knowledge of fatboot and bootloader ? in that case unzip the file of your firmware in the same carpet you have the adb and fastboot files, be sure your phone is on "USB debugging mode" and plug your phone to your PC (phone must be power on), then type
adb devices (to see if the phone is recognized)
adb reboot bootloader (to reboot into bootloader)
fastboot devices (to see if the phone is recognized in fastboot, because sometimes it doesnt)
fastboot erase modemst1 (delete the old modems)
fastboot erase modemst2 (delete the old modems)
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin (flash the modems of your phone model)
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn (flash the modem of your phone model)
mfastboot reboot
After the reboor you will have signal again after a couple of minutes, and of course your IMEI is back too.
hope it helps

I found the at&t modem NON-Hlos.img but I can't find the fsg fsg.bn. and the first one is not working.
could you please be so kind to tell me where can I find those files please
RESOLVED!!!!
OK, let me tell you what I did.
I follow the steps that you gave me but it did not work.
Then I tryed installing the at&t room but it just mess more the things, because when I reboot the phone it went straight to the boot loader, and I was not able to turn on the phone. at this time I was really scared xD
so I create a new folder with the at&t room and the fastboot.
open fastboot and start flashing all the files in the folder, but this time I did not flashed the non-hls neifghter the fsg file.
then I just reboot the phone and read the sim card quickly.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
you save my life. I really appreciate your help.
So today I got an update for a new firmware, it was a small 125 mb patch, no big deal. I downloaded it and installed it a couple of hours later, I leave it to install and when I'm back my phone is frozen on the Motorola logo and the "Powered by android" text written below, but it won't get past that. I left it for almost an hour and it won't boot, I tried forcing a reboot and it gets me back to the same screen.
Is there any way I could fix it, preferably while keeping my data? Especially the what's app gallery.
Thanks a lot guys, I'm kinda panicking here.
Ps. I'm not rooted, everything is completely stock.
it's Stuck on Moto Boto logo ?
Yes. I tried doing a factory reset and that doesn't work either, it sends me right back to the boot logo.
Sorry to not have any solutions but my girlfriends phone has probably had the exact same thing happen. At about 10PM tonight she got an update notification and told it to install. almost two hours later she checked the phone again to see it stuck on the boot logo and incredibly hot. She restarted it and same thing, stuck on the boot logo. Same as you, completely stock phone. Never been modified in anyway.
I had her go into recovery and wipe cache, no change at all. I've now had her do a factory reset twice as some similar problems mentioned that as a solution. No change, still just gets stuck on the boot screen.
My assumption at this point is that this update has completely trashed the phone and it's completely unrecoverable on the device at least.
I'm willing to learn how to install a new rom from scratch if that would help, preferably a stock one. The problem is that Motorola doesn't have any stores where I live, I ordered my phone off amazon.
So is there any method to fix it? You can instruct me if you could or at least tell me what to look for on google.
Thanks a lot man.

What do you mean?
I'm a total beginner when it comes to android, I'm more of a windows guy. Can you walk me through the steps?
It´s not that easy to guide someone through all the steps. First thing you have to do is unlock your bootloader,described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/wip-unlock-bootloader-moto-g-2nd-gen-t2875728. Read all the steps,it´s not that difficult.
You need all the drivers,by motorola and android, linked in the tutorial. I recomend Minimal ADB and Fastboot instead of Android SDK, it´s easier. Install it in the root of your windows partition,like C:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot. So if you open a command prompt the path is short and you know it.
After the unlock process you´ll need to flash a custom recovery, you can read how to do that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/xt1063-t3018818.
There´s a part called Flashing TWRP Recovery . You don´t need to do that with Flashify (you surely can if you want but I think this way is easier to do), just download the custom recovery TWRP from here: https://dl.twrp.me/titan/.
Place the .img file in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder and connect the phone to the PC. After that you open a command prompt again from the Minmal ADB and fastboot folder (open the folder and hold Shift and right click and press "open command window here".
Now type the command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
When the phone has booted to bootloader type
Code:
fastboot devices
A string of numbers should appear,that means your phone is connected.
Now type
fastboot flash recovery "name of the downloaded TWRP .img file", in your case that should be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-titan.img
Now everytime when you boot to recovery you´ll see a menu with a lot of features like install,wipe,backup,restore etc.
From here you can flash any rom you like, a stock rom, a stock based rom or any other like cyanogen or AOSP.
If you want to flash stock again you´ll need to know the name of your firmware,it differs from country and version. You can search for it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/original-motorola-firmware-collection-t3153533.
It´s late now here, if you are at this point and have decided what rom to flash post again or pm me.
I hope my exclamation is understandable and I´ve made no faults, everyone else please correct me then!

Its good guide follow these steps
If you want to go stock, I recommend you to go with the mfastboot method . . .
because it doesn't even need unlocked bootloader or any recovery,
The following link is having a mfastboot folder, in which, Moto G 2014(XT1068) stock 5.0.2 factory firmware is stored and, you just have to extract the folder and open it then pressing & holding shift + RMB and select "Open Command Window Here".
(Now press Power + Volume Down simultaneously, and you should go to the bootloader mode, if you don't know that )
Now in the command window, check your phone is connected with USB and type below code and press Enter.
Code:
fastboot devices
if any code(like for eg. ZDMJK2312) is shown, you're connected,
if not, try reconnecting the USB and try again.
Once properly connected, now you can flash the follwing commands one by one, to get your device to life.

Note : The above method is for only the model XT1068, because the firmware in the folder is for that model only, so plz make sure your model before proceeding.
And plz follow each and every step properly.
Thanks . . .
Alright thanks people! I'll try ArtRahul's method since it's easier and i was quite satisfied with stock. If that doesn't work I'll try Wolfcity's method.
Alright, so this is an update. ArtRahul's method works great and it's really easy. If anyone looks for a solution and finds this thread, just make sure you find the exact model of your phone and google the firmware. Here's where I found mine

you don't have to access to os in order to unlock the bootloader, go to android development section on this forum for moto g 2014 & follow any thread that guides about unlocking bootloader.

My questions?
1. Does your ROM support XT1805 too?
2. By locking the bootloader, can i get official update (OTA)? or will it still block the OTA?

Install this tool ,and install motorola driver, download letest official moto ROM,on usb debugging to Detect device with fb command . After select rom zip and enter.
http://rsdlite.en.lo4d.com
RSD Lite is a Motorola tool which can be used to install software on Motorola Android phones and tablets.
The application can be used for a number of reasons and can be a very useful tool for installing root (or rooting) a phone, but only if it's an Android phone.
The application interface of RSD Lite is pretty bare-bones and includes some technical details that would only be understood by more intermediate users.
With that said, using RSD Lite will certainly void your warranty and if you're not familiar with rooting or flashing Motorola devices, then it could brick your phone. Conversely, the tool can also be used to unbrick a device.
RSDLite is licensed as Freeware for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit) operating system / platform from mobile phone tools without restrictions. RSDLite 6.2.4 is available to all software users as a free download (Freeware).
Some people facing this problem but it caused moto failed to write IMEI in some device.So use a back up tool like √♀ back should store in your pendrive.
You might use

2)phone flash to official recovery.img
3)use all commends correctly don't restart
4)Use Relock command from text.
5)OEM relocked ,and fast boot reboot.

Why my device shows 4G instead of LTE symbol
Can anyone tell me what this (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State).
What exactly is locked? Is my cell OEM unlocked?
I flashed the wrong TWRP (for the 2017 Red Magic-NX209J) and even though I have been able to unlock my cell via CMD commands; it remains permanently in fastboot mode?
If I send a CMD command to reboot it reboots straight back to fastboot mode.
No form of ADB connect seems to work an my windows PC cannot see/show the cell?
How the hell do I fix this? It's been in this state for a week.
Can anyone help?
Meaby try this?
Then, to unlock your bootloader, enter "fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J"
And meaby try the recovery backup instead of TWRP.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have no recovery back up Is it possible to get past TWRP being locked and use CMD to flash the International or chinese ROM? Or recovery image?
Unless tools are developed to unbrick this device I am scared this problem might be permanent
Download this twrp, and then upload it to google drive or something so the rest of us can download it too .

Thanks but what do i do with it? Its all in an asain language?
Link not open bro
The TWRP does not work
Sorry. That link to the twrp does not result in a bootable twrp recovery for me.
I am starting to think my cell is not fixable.
I did not do that much wrong I just flashed the twrp for 2 models of red magic earlier. It only has a fastboot mode. I either get a boot screen then fastboot mode or a warning about the bootloader being unlocked.
Whatever is wrong with my cell prevents ADB connect an the cell is not able to be seen by windows.
This $1100 New Zealand dollar cellphone may be permanently bricked by my mistake.
I might just need to bin it an buy another one.
Lesson learned.
It confusing....
My cell acts like it has a softbrick (can turn off an on an has fastboot options and I have erased it an OEm an bootloader unlocked it)
And also behaves like a hard brick (resists every method of repair).
I just do not understand it or Nubia products. I am unfamiliar with this phone.
Does anyone have any clue how I can see this cell on my windows pc or ADB connect it an boot into TWRP?
Are there any Nubia repair software tools?

Thanks for that. I'm talking about using CMD to totally wipe everything in the cell an reflash the Chinese ROM that came with it. Repair software. Might take months to develop software like that.

Also it isn't a zip. It's some other kind of file. And does not boot into TWRP on my unit
So are you able to unlock your bootloader in its current state?
If you have an older TWRP installed maybe try changing the model on your bootloader command to match it:
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX209J
If this works then flash the correct TWRP and the boot IMG from your original rom
fastboot flash recovery <new recovery>
fastboot reboot bootloader

Terrapin. Absolutely nothing worked. I am the 3rd person who has had this issue I know of. 2 other xda members had the same issue. One with TWRP like me an the other got stuck in fastboot mode after trying g to flash an apk of Gapps? I think these cells do not like tinkering. But your advice enabled me to be OEM and bootloader unlocked. But always.....straight back to fastboot mode no matter what I flash? My red magic 3 device is currently at a service center with a technician trying to solve the problem. I have 3 repayments left on my Xiaomi Mi9 that has zero flashing issues. O admit i.may be ignorant of the ways of Nubia ?

Thank God. Maybe the Chinese service guy I'm paying will get on xda an try your idea. I'm being lazy saying that lol. Thanks very very much. I will show your post to the service guy who has my red magic 3 or try it myself.
There's no way your a junior member working all this out. I'm a junior member listed as a senior member who makes rookie flashing errors with Chinese cellphones lol.
I will share if I can implement your ideas successfully. Thanks buddy my missus really loved this phone I felt really bad when I incapacitated it.
Fingers crossed.....

And I do not understand why the instructions say to cmd flash the image (IMG) via command prompt (which just errors like the strange NON-HLOS command?) Then the instructions say to flash the Chinese rom via otg?
Are you supposed to flash the ROM twice?
Can someone please give me some more detailed instructions as this cell has been non functional about 2 months now.

My suggestions is, download a full sd card update package, unlock the bootloader temporarily,extract the update file and flash the vbmeta.img to vbmeta partion, then flash the recovery.img to recovery partition, after that, try to boot into recovery through bootloader. You have to make sure that you use all the same file from same package, if you are use a low version vbmeta file to boot a high version system (or recovery ) it will not boot. the vbmeta is very important on this phone.
