Can't flash any lollipop roms - Moto X Q&A

After flashing a new lollipop build almost daily, all of the sudden nothing will boot up. Latest twrp. Everything installs fine, I hit reboot and it stays at the boot up screen forever. Over 30 minutes and nothing happens. This is with every lollipop ROM. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? Or suggestions on what to do? Thanks

this problem has been dealt with before... just flash an earlier version of the rom u wanna install, preferable 5.0.0 version. then do a dirty flash of the latest version

That did it. Thanks for the help.

"SystemUI Stopped Working" right after boot

I was flashing and using LP roms normally till I came back to KK.
After a week I wanted to come back to LP, but then, every lp rom I flash gave me the message "systemui stopped working" right after the boot
I can't even click an app icon
What i've already tryed:
-Clean Flash
-Dirty Flash
-Update Recovery (TWRP)
-Flash With/Without GAPPS
-Diferrents ROMS
Nothing seems to work, every rom gave the same error after flashing
Can someone help me?
I have seen this and forget how I got past it but try this recovery - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/xt10xx-philz-touch-t2612149
Even before trying that - try a clean flash of a very early version of L then boot it up. Then dirty flash the latest version and gapps.

BTW i'm download that gapps to flash it
Help pls
Just got a Moto X 1st gen replacement from Motorola and getting same problem after unlocking/rooting. Has OP found a fix for this? Or does anyone know how to fix? Spent all day working on this and its driving me nuts.
Did you guys flash CM11 first let it boot up and then dirty flash CM12? Might not be needed still but was when I tried CM12.
Just installing CM 11, or any other rom, caused this problem. Unfortunately can't go back to my 1053 stock as I didn't make a nandriod backup since I didn't think I needed.
...not sure if it'll help, but did you guys update the bootloader and such to match your android version? I had to update mine before it would work right.
Your kernel may be out of date, update it or change it

Lollipop not booting anymore

Hi users and developers, I'm frustrated, my phone keeps refusing to boot Lollipop ROMs. Flashing any other version older Android version works nice. It started to happen after trying some kernels, getting a nice bunch of problems with the dual boot kernel, which formatted the preloader giving me those nice bugs.
Any hint on it? Should I reflash trough Odin? I'm currently at 1 Odin flash and about 68 Recovery flashes, that way, I don't know if it will be safe to flash everything again.
Thanks in advance

Probs with roms and stuff

hey guys! newbie here!
Flashed TWRP 3.0.2 and installed SuperSU 2.67 with 0 problems.I wanted to try out something different than the MIUI as it is a bit too iphone looking imo.
My dream would be something that runs ASOP or close, like cyanogenmod, but with the MIUI camera app as that thing is amazing!
Soooo i went from MIUI7 to Cyanogenmod 13
But kept getting various bugs (camera not working/video not working/random crashes etc.)
Tried some other rom called Resurrected Remix
But this one would only show the actual screen when i pressed the lock button. Showed the screen for like 0.2 sec before going out. When turning on the display, it just showed white. Pure white.
Now, i just want to go back to MIUI for now and see what happens with development for the MI5 in a couple of months.
But, when i boot into recovery and flash the latest stock global rom, downloaded from miui forum and then try to boot, it just stays in a boot loop.
Tried reflashing/redownloading a couple of times but makes 0 difference.
So now i got a very beautiful TWRP running phone.. Only running TWRP..
If ANYONE has got some good ideas for me to try, please let me know!

Hey there,
I assume your Bootloader is unlocked, since you flashed a few different ROMs. If so, you can download the official Xiaomi flash tool (Miflash) and flash the official fastboot ROM (which is different from a recovery ROM).
Just follow the instructions in this page: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html and you'll be good to go in no time.
After flashing, check that everything works then if you want to root just reboot into fastboot mode, boot TWRP (fastboot boot recovery.img), flash SuperSU.
Cheers!
Hey again! so i tried flashing via Miflash tool, but now it is just stuck in a bootloop.. It has been booting for 30 min+ after the flash was sucessfully completed..
i have tried to do a "standard" flash with the flash_all_but_storage.bat and also the flash_all.bat, but neither lets me boot into MIUI
I had the same bootloop problem after using Miflash.
I sorted it out by putting the uncompressed ROM at the root of /c:.
I also used the latest beta of Miflash.
I hope it helps...
am using latest beta of Miflash.. Connected to PC via USB 2.0
Uncompressed root is at root of C drive...

Stuck on boot animation screen (jumping balls/ waves) regardless of which ROM I use.

Whichever flashing method I use (TWRP, fastboot) Whichever rom I use (I tried clean stock, pre rooted, MM, LP, backups), I can't get past the animation screen. Even restoring a backup through TWRP gets stuck at the same spot. The only ROM that works is LineageOS (based on Android 7.1). I tried wiping various combinations of dalvik cache, data, cache, system, internal storage - still always stuck on boot animation. I tried leaving it for a long time always, the longest was over 2 hours. I feel like I'm missing wiping something since it seems like the issue is going from a 7.1 rom down maybe?
More info: I was using SLiM ROM (MM 6.0.1) for a while but it got extremely slow and poor battery life after a while. I flashed LineageOS for Z3C and it worked fine, but wasn't my cup of tea, so I wanted to go back to stock-based. I figured I'd try eXistenZ (MM 6.0.1). The instructions said to be on 23.5.A.1.291 first, then root it, and then flash the existenz zip. I didn't downgrade to .291 the first time and it didn't work. Second time I flashed a stock D5803_23.5.A.1.291 (which booted up normally). Went through the rooting process (as seen here), and that worked fine. But the next step of flashing eXistenz didn't work. I tried again from the start, but this time I couldn't boot into after flashing 23.5.A.1.291 again. This is where the problem started. I tried Slim and various roms using fastboot, various versions of twrp, and even a 6.0.1 backup through twrp. Always regardless of ROM, it gets stuck on boot animation. Except for LineageOS.
Hi, I'm in the exact same situation, I have Lineage OS 7.1 installed and I can't go back to any custom ROM based on Android 6.0 stock, all I get is always a bootloop. The only other ROM I can install is Sony stock via Flashtool. I really don't know what the problem is, please let me know if you manage to solve this weird problem.
Install old twrp, wipe /apps_log.
Or use emma to get a clean device again.
I solved the issue installing stock Android 6.0 with Flashtool, twrp 3.0.2 and then flashing ROM. :good:

Need help asap please

I had a twrp recovery v2.8.0.3 and i downloaded a custom rom for my htc one m7(Dual sim) . Before flashing custom rom i thought to update the twrp to newer version so i flashed twrp v3.0.1 with flashify . After that i made back up of my current rom and tried to flash new rom which was failed.
My problem is that every time my phone boots into recovery and when i click on boot to recovery , the phone boots to previous version of recovery so it means the previous twrp recovery is till there and i cant restart my phone again to normal.
Is my phone soft brick ? If anyone knows the solution then please guide me. Any help will be appreciated.
P.s :- Im new here
Did you dirty flash? Always install a new Custom ROM that is different via clean flashing. Sometimes when the phone stops responding for a bit while loading I send a quick screenshot to make it work again. Doesn't seem like a softbrick in my eyes.
