Hi everybody,
A few days ago, I rooted my Mexican XT1225. I shut it down for a day (my main cellphone is the new Moto X), turn it on again and now it's stuck on fastboot.
I could boot into TWRP (by flashing it temporarily with fastboot on Linux) and then I decided to wipe data and then install the new lollipop zip file. But it failed saying it could not mount /system /data or anything really, I basically have it without format, all partitions say 0MB.
So I tried flashing with fastboot, but it gave me an error when flashing the partition gpt.bin, it didn't give me an error when flashing other files. Still stuck, now I cannot even access the recovery menu, it goes just into fastboot mode and does not show the little recovery menu anymore.
Then I tried flashing with RSD, still same problem. It fails when setting the fb_mode_set and when I delete that line from the xml it fails again on flashing gpt.bin
EDIT: I am attaching a log file of TWRP evidencing this.
Any ideas on how to get back to normal? How can I redo the partition in another way?
Thanks in advance,
Gustavo

Yes, unlocked bootloader. Removed the gpt.bin flash line and still no luck. Tried flashing several files, the Indian Lollipop, the Mexican Kitkat, nothing has worked.

After re reading your post I understood what's wrong, you have to flash the lollipop OTA on stock recovery not twrp or rsd lite, once you flash it you can put back twrp

I have the xml.zip file, extracted it and manually flashed partition by partition. Something I have previously done with my 1st gen Moto X, my Razr HD and even my Atrix, if I remember correctlly. Even RSD Lite should work with those files.
Still, I will try to boot with the stock recovery, since right now I cannot access it. I will also seek a way to get the xml.zip file inside the storage, since I cannot even mount it with TWRP (It shows 0mb drive)

Twrp for this device it's not very stable I got that errors too
Just flash mexico firmware then the OTA zip on stock recovery and you will be good to go.
If you can't access recovery press vol- and power with the phone turned off and you'll be able to select recovery
Hi,
I have tried the vol+power and cannot access recovery.
When I try to flash Mexico's firmware (through either RSD or manually in Linux using fastboot), I am unable to flash partition gpt.bin, but I can flash everything else. Yet, in spite of flashing everything else, I cannot get out of the fastboot loop.
I am attaching some photos of what happens. The first one is the only thing that boots, cannot access recovery, cannot boot normally. The second photo is what happens when I press the volume button many times.
So when you select recovery does it power off or just go back to fastboot again?

Hi, I dan only go yo fastboot. The menú does not appear. The only thing that appears is the photo of my previous post.
I can boot into TWRP by manually doing fastboot boot twr-recovery.IMG
Hmmm, doesn't look good. The fastboot screen doesn't even load the picture of the green Android. I am thinking the partition table is messed up. I know I saw something similar with the original(2013) Moto X a while back. You may want to do some searching in that forum.

Hola Steve,
Indeed, it looks like the partition table is messed up, I will look for that Moto X thread.
@Jaocagomez I have tried that, but it fails with gpt.bin partition flash and even after flashing everything else (RSD, fastboot or TWRP) it does not work.
After reading quite a lot on the Internet, it seems that my problem happened to some Moto G and Moto X users. Seems to be that I am trying to flash a gpt.bin that is older than the one already in my phone. I will try again when the Mexican Lollipop image is released in xml.zip format.
In the mean time, I will continue to search for solutions.
Hi
I think I have the same issue.
I have XT1225 bought it from Amazon (I asked the company and they said Puerto Rico origin) factory unlocked. had 4.4.4 and tried to upgrade to 5.0.2. Here is what I exactly did:
devices not rooted, locked bootloader
downloaded RSD Lite
downloaded the official 5.0.2 India Firmware
tried to flash it using RSD
got an error in flashing boot from RSD
I tried to do it again and I get the same issue, I tried to flash the Puerto Rico 4.4.4 and it didnt work (it get stuck in partition gpt) and my device is dead. I tried to unlock the bootloader using the code from motorola and it says allow oem unlock from developer menu
tried doing it manually using mfastboot with both 5.0.2 and 4.4.4 and still didnt work.
please let me know if you managed to fox your problem or if anyone can help us get back our devices

Ok fixed, after 20 or 30 tries I was able to enter recovery Thx!
I have unlocked bootloader but everything else is in stock state. But every time I try to update it fails for some reason.
How can I check my bootloader version?

Same problem here. Does the bootloader need to be locked to do the update? I didn't root the device and TWRP is not installed.
Thanks!
Did you change boot logo? Flashed some kernel?
Just unlocked the bootloader.
bootloop. & bootloader is locked. And I do not have usb debugging enabled. Any way to get around this?
Depends... You're quite sparse with information about what you've done to get to where you are and about your setup.
A few options come to mind. If you have TWRP you can try flashing a custom rom zip and that could fix it. You could also try the special N preview OTA that google provided to fix phones that got screwed up by an N OTA. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/to-save-bricked-nexus-device-t3334660
Yeah sorry about that. While updating to 6.0 the phone died. And is now stuck in a bootloop (stuck at the google logo screen). I was trying to use nexus root toolkit to flash stuck android back onto it, however my bootloader is locked. And I did not have usb debugging enabled either. So I am trying to find a way to unlock my bootloader. If that makes any sense
Use the second method I suggested. Should work.
Can you get in bootloader or recovery mode?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/to-save-bricked-nexus-device-t3334660
Try to sideload shamu-ota-npc91k-201dd8d1.zip. (This upgrades to Android N Preview.)
Since the OTA is a complete image, it should restore the device to working condition. Then you should be able to enable USB debugging and OEM unlock so the bootloader can be unlocked through fastboot.
Sorry for the late replies. I am attempting the second method & I am able to boot into recovery mode. However I keep getting "adb server is out of date" so I am trying to work it out at the moment
This worked for me! Locked bootloader, no usb debugging, no custom recovery, stuck in bootloop due to software issues.
Bootloader showing engineering

well, instructions, probably not. if its a flashable zip, that means that you can use twrp recovery to flash it. fastboot flashing has to be done while youre in the bootloader, using fastboot. the command is.. fastboot flash bootloader zipname.img
right now am using nexus root toolkit V 2.1.6.....
look. I am really a noob on this topic .... don't know what to do....

well, being a noobie, use google to find out about twrp recovery and about fastboot flashing. fastboot flashing would be more important to you, as twrp recovery use is simple when you already have it installed. unfortunately, im at work at the moment, so cant really help out to much.

Hi.
My cell came in bootloop, I loaded the original rom by adb fastboot, and everything comes out correct in the load, however, follow the bootloop.
In recovery mode does nothing, re-enter bootloop always.
Has it happened to someone else?
p.d. sorry for my english.

Are you sure you flashed mcg24.251-5-5 (with extra -5 at the end?) And not the previous (mcg24.251-5-5) which would give you a bootloop? You can't flash a lower version with a locked bootloader.
You're not trying to use the temp root posted in another thread as perpetual temp are you? That also causes bootloop. It's posted here in this forum only for using Sunshine to unlock the bootloader.
Just curious, is your bootloader unlocked?

hi.
I am sure you will try with the rom 5-5
At the end of flashing, everything gave me "OK" (radio, boot, bootloader ...)
I remember if I install the sunshine, but in the end I do not know how to use it. Thinks that maybe that caused the damage.
No, my bootloader is locked.

I just flashed the ROM with the rsd and it get in the bootloop when I restarted the phone.
How can I flash this initiroot? Does it came in the Root's folder? I flash this before the stock room? I'm confused, sorry about that hehehehe.
Thanks for all attention!
if you use the auto#initroot tethered jailbreak tool in before , just run it again.
I get this moto logo reboot problem in few days before, and I read many page for get this answer.
the temp root tool use some system issue , and it will cause this xt1254 boot loop issue , just run the auto#initroot.windows.bat again . phone will reboot to normally.
My phone is bricked, need the complete Fastboot flushable signed 28.2 firmware, Oreo 8.1 May Update for the USA retail model of x4
Mod edit: no trading/payments on XDA please... edited.
I have the OTA. Would you be able to use that?
Why not just flash 28.1 full firmware and just take the ota to 28.2 that it offers immediately?
I thought it was possible to downgrade via the fastboot method with any firmware. Doesn't have to be 28.2 to at the very least get your phone back working.
try flashing OTA. adb sideload it.

Are you not able to flash 28.1?
when I try, it says image validation failed. I NEED 28.2 or higher
see, my boot loader was locked when I tried to flash a different rom. I didn't know I needed to unlock the boot loader I thought that step was optional. now im stuck with a phone that only boots to Fastboot, will ONLY accept SIGNED STOCK 28.2 or higher.
Can try https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=229118 or https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto X4/Stock/XT1900-1/
See if it will accept an earlier version. Couldn't hurt in your situation.

Not sure what to tell you from here. Just make sure not to rush any steps due to frustration or impatience.
I was able to return my first Moto X4 on warranty due to playing around with flashing. I'm sticking 100% stock till we get official lineage.

Bad eticate to post about your issue on multiple threads especially when you have your own. I'm sorry, there is no timetable. Could be tomorrow, could be months. This is the risk in flashing, end even worst in our case since Lenovo has not released factory images.
