I tried root my xt1078 with "kingoroot" and "one click root" but i failed =( the main fact of having a recent phone model is why there are not many ROM's or modifications

On my xt1072 UK 4g model I flashed the 3g moto g twrp titan in fastboot and flashed SuperSU in twrp recovery and it worked fine, no problem at all. Assuming your boot loader unlocked.

Could you send some pictures of your ROM here? Could you provide as which SuperSU file used to "root"? I blocked my phone and forgot the unlock password, I had to format the "hard reset" and I ended up realizing that the phone comes with a type of CWM, or am I wrong? For there where I used the restoration had "wipe cache, wipe factory, from SD card update" There are various options like CWM ...

Hello everybody,
I'm new, I hope someone can help me here ... I'm quite sure somewhere on these forums there must already be answers for my problem but I'm too dumb to find them.
I have the European? 2014 Moto X (not sure how to get the exact model now?!)
Unlocked bootloader, rooted.
Everything was fine, except today I got the 5.0.2 (?) OTA update ...
I didn't want to do it, but it kept asking. The moment I pressed "don't ask again" the phone rebooted
and now it's stuck at the white bootup screen (Motorola logo)
I somehow managed to get into the fastboot? mode once, by somehow pressing buttons at startup ... but, well
My two questions are:
1. Can I still backup my data, photos, textfiles, etc etc
2. How do I go back to a working system. (maybe without loosing my data)
Please tell me if it's possible, and how ... or please push me into the right directions.
But as I'm half panicking detailed instructions would be so fantastic.
Personally, how I would recover data, is boot to fastboot and flash TWRP again (since you indicated you were unlocked boot loader). In TWRP, plug in the device to a computer via USB and your files will be there. Then you can reflash the stock firmware and be good to go. If you are comfortable flashing the firmware through fastboot, you can choose to not wipe data and you should be all set.
It may be worth trying just clearing the cache and seeing if you can boot.

Hey! Thanks a lot!
I did fastboot boot twrp, and managed to backup my data on the internat storage! Yeah! Thanks!! <3
Now to part 2, I tried to wipe the cache partition in TWRP, but it doesn't help; when I reboot it still only shows the white logo..
Should I wipe other partitions aswell? (davikcache?)
If there's a way without loosing the phone setup, it would be great.
(Installed apps ... open tabs in firefox etc ...)
I also have a "online nandroid" backup, I think from back then, right after I rooted.
Would I restore the system.img from there?
Will this remove installed apps?
Or should I restore all partitions made by online nandroid backup?!
(I thought this would be better than... or how would I find the right stock firmware online for my device?)
Sorry for being such a beginner!!!!

Lollipop actually doesn't use dalvik, so that won't help. If you have a nandroid, you of course can restore to that but it would likely lose your apps/settings. You can try restoring just the system, it sort of depends on what went wrong. In my experience being stuck not booting, I generally just reflash everything. Not the most convenient but it is the most effective.

Hey xKroniK13x,
thanks a lot for caring!
Of course, catastrophy happened:
I did fastboot boot twrp and tried to restore system from there, didn't work so I restored system _and boot from my nandroid backup there
guess this was very stupid because
Now my phone boots right into the fastboot mode, and I can't fastboot boot TWRP anymore,
it says "incomplete boot image for booting"
partition sizes wrong, etc etc ...
what I did now was flashing TWRP, at least this worked and I can boot it from the phone now.
So, please, one more time help (for a very stupid user ):
1. I guess keeping my apps and settings is out of discussion now, haha
But is there a way, with unlocked bootloader, TWRP installed to go back to stock?
2. Now ... given my phone is not completely broken, I just thought about installing CM?!
Would this be recommended? is it working fine?
I'm just thinking about it, because with Cyanogenmod I won't have problems like this in the future, right?
(OTA updates destroying my phone because of root....)
Whoa, I'm sorry for posting this here, but ... :angel:

If you've been contemplating installing a ROM, now would be a good time to do so. Just remember to wipe the data on the phone even though it doesn't boot. And CM OTA shouldn't cause issues like this, it just flashes the zip file in your recovery. Doesn't care about root or anything of course. Otherwise, if you'd like to do stock, just use MDM to get the firmware and flash away. Hope this helped!

Try clearing your cache in a recovery/fastboot, or reflash the firmware! No guarantee the cache will fix it, but sometimes it will.

Thank you for your help.
Clearing the cache doesn't work, so I'm searching for others ways...
Can you tell me how to flash the firmware with adb ?
Thanks

Hey, thanks for somehow guiding me through this :victory:
MDM didn't work, so I just went for the CM 12.1 nightly.
I also had concerns because in my attempts to clear cache etc etc I had "wrong partition size" etc etc
But CM installed without problems!
(Just one more question- there can't be any problems in the future because of messed up partitions, right? Does CM fix this by installing? Or should I stop caring, if it works, it works, right?!)
In fact, CM runs great, fantastic on my phone.
I lost some app data, and most annoyingly my SMS, but ...
Other than that, I'm really happy with CM :laugh:
@benjo22
Hey, I tried to fix it by clearing cache partitions from a fastboot TWRP (I don't know how you call it, I just booted TWRP without installing it)
This didn't work, so I tried to restore a nandroid backup,
but this made it even worse. (partition errors, only fastboot mode, etc etc)
Just booting with TWRP without installing also didn't work anymore,
so I put TWRP on the phone, which luckily worked, downloaded CM 12.1, installed it via TWRP,
never did it before, but I was lucky, it seems like it worked great!
Even kept my "SD CARD" data, but lost apps and some data ...
So I didn't fix the bootloop, but I hope I made it better, futureproof...
Glad you got up and running. CM shouldn't cause any future issues as far as partitions and such.

Hi, everyone this is my first post.
Though I am not new to rooting, but earlier i used to do one click root..so unrooting was also that damn easy.
Recently i rooted my moto x 2nd gen xt1092 by unlocking bootloader and after flashing TWRP and later using SuperSu.
But here is the catch I didn't take nandroid backup before rooting.
So my question is
1 If I take backup now , will this backup be a rooted backup , means that if in future I flash this backup my phone will be directly boot in rooted mode..?
2 If I unroot using supersu are there chances I may stuck in bootloop?
3 now as I alreday have Twrp flashed how can I get to my original OS I once had? 9(system recovery image)
Plz let my doubts get cleared.
thanks in advance

1. yes, you can do a full backup of system, data, recovery, boot, etc (default configuration of backup) and when you do a restore you have the same root system.
2, sometimes, you have a 50% of possible failure, the best option is flash the stock system files and after do a ota update or similar (never do a downgrade, can kill your phone(hardbrick))
3. Via bootloader (down volume button when you turn on the phone)
Write or copy this lines on bootloader mode (in the same folder where you have execute the command for your unlock code for the unlock of boot loader)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
The recovery is on image of StockRom.
Sorry my English, I`m Chilean.

My two doubts are absolutely clear.
I have a doubt regarding the 3 point.
where I will find that recovey.img file?
And after flashing that recovery.img file will I get back to my stock rom, that I had before TWRP was installed ?
Can I take OTA updates?
Will TWRP get uninstalled ?
your english is pretty good..

I recommend downloading the stock rom and do a clean install , because any change you've made in system, will generate bootloop...
Here the links to the Rom (you must download The xt1092 version)
Firmwares 4.4.4 hasta 5.0.X: https://mega.co.nz/#F!TkIwRTjR!m7W1V35qfLBiiUargAx1vg
Firmwares 5.1 y 6.0: https://mega.co.nz/#F!ow8igZRL!Z7vmN8GOpez2bVMYDvEKkg
And them install via guides on xda.

so its better to flash system files than flashing recovery.img
though I'm in no mood to unroot my device. just wanted to know the consequences. I'll do normal backup of my current rooted rom. If in case anything happens I'll flash stock system files from motorola website.
Thanks for the info.
Xposed is the reason I rooted my device. Heard that is better to take nandroid backup before installing Xposed.

Yesterday I unlocked bootloader and installed TWRP following steps from a thread posted here, got it succesfully done and rooted with SuperSU, booted up no problem. But today I made a mistake by booting into TWRP and performing an advanced wipe with all boxes checked (internal storage, cache, dalvik, etc. ). I think this was my mistake... after that I tried to reboot and it said no OS found try to boot?
I booted up and now it is stuck in the white screen of Warning bootloader unlocked page.
Can someone help me? please. Can I recover? Install OS?
Model: Indian Flipkart version, I believe it is Moto X 1092, had marshmallow on it.
You wiped the System partition, that's where the Android OS is installed, you can't recover (unless you made a backup). Now you can either flash a ROM like CyanogenMod and Gapps with TWRP, or you can flash a full factory firmware with fastboot. I don't know which firmware version your phone uses, but here's a list for the Moto X 2014:

I'm only guessing it may be VICTARA_RETEU_XT1092_6.0...
The problem is each firmware version will have modem/radio for a specific region.
Instead of finding what firmware I have to flash, I decided to go with CM 13 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...om-official-cm-13-0-nightly-releases-t3256580 ) and Slim mini Gapps. will that be good?

OK good, but to get info on your phone, boot into bootloader mode, and do "fastboot getvar all", that will show you a lot of specs about your phone, you should copy the info and paste it into Notepad and keep it. Don't paste anything in here though.
NOTE: CM already has root under Developer Options.
ISN'T NECESSARY MTK DROID TOOLS OR OTHER MTK TOOLS , JUST MTK ENGINEER MODE IN LP FIRMWARE
This way it’s permanent just if you don’t wipe nvram & nvdata partitions and work only on who have LP and MM Firmware + TWRP Recovery for LP Firmware

Update again to MM using OTA
After MM is booted up ,
You will see IMEI,
Reboot to Recovery [Stock]
Wipe cache,
Install TWRP 2.8.7-N (Download)
[Trought SP FLash Tools]
To install TWRP with success , after TWRP is flashed just reboot to recovery first!
If you reboot first to system , will replace twrp with stock recovery , and entrie operation need to repeat [ from installing twrp ]
READY , NOW YOU HAVE PERMANENT FIX IMEI FOR ALL DEVICES [MTK] WHICH HAVE LP & MM FIRMWARE + TWRP ON BOTH VERSIONS
IF YOU WILL DO FACTORY RESET , IMEI WILL BE STILL HERE , NO ERASE , 100% TESTED

Thanks for your effort IacobIonut-DW, and it works great, but only if you decide to use Blu's Stock Marshmallow ROM.
The bad news is that the problem is still present if one goes beyond stock and try to install any other custom ROM like AEX or Resurrection Remix ROMs.
I think that most people here want to skip using the stock (while rooted) ROM and experiment with other ROMs like AEX and RR.
Any pointers would be welcomed!
In the meantime, I am on MM Stock, Rooted and debloated.
Try to use SPlus LP and MM Firmware

Quite honestly I've been swamped with other things and have not tried this yet.
So you're saying that you have AEX running (or other custom ROM) with your Blu Vivo XL without losing both IMEI?
I'll try it out later, but just checking in the meantime

It works very well and I was really surprised at the speed with which the operating system loads. Although surely much is because I have not installed the gapps yet.
Awesome to know!
But I'll have to ask which S Plus rom variant did you use? I found three different ones with different numbers. ?
Also what Custom ROM did you installed?
Thanks in advance!
