I have a Moto-maker-made Moto X with T-mobile sim (I think XT1053) and never installed any custom ROMs. The soak from couple weeks ago soft-bricked the phone (factory reset from fastboot menu just powers off the phone). I can get into fastboot, but the device is locked (status code 0). Do I have to unlock it in order to apply the factory image? The steps below fail currently.
I got the TMO_Retail_XT1053_5.1_LPA23.12-15.222.21.15.ghost_row.Retail.en.US.tgz from motorola, and ran all fastboot steps until "fastboot flash boot boot.img" which failed:

I have a failed flash :/
Hello, I got the MotoG 2014 from Amazon in the US, it came with Kitcat and in the first week it installed the OTA for Lollipop, and I was very happy with my purchase then after a couple of months it started to update something while on low battery and then the phone died, I was out of the US so turning it back to Amazon was not possible. I couldn't do anything from the recovery so I unlocked it and found some RETUSGLB Lollipop ROM and flashed it using fastboot and it came back to life. After two weeks, while I was using it, the screen went black, it would boot up and stay on the Motorola animated logo, again the recovery wouldn't work, so I decided to flash the same Llollipop again, but this time the fastboot flash command only worked with the "fastboot flash partition gpt.bin" all the others (motoboot, boot, logo, recovery, etc) gave me an error:
(bootloader) Failed to flash
FAILED (remote failure)
I've tried many of the recommendations of the forum to no avail, right now when I try to boot up the MotoG normally, it stays in a garbled screen, I guess the logo image is corrupt. Tried to flash a different Lollipop ROM, but it fails to flash also. I can boot to fastboot and use some commands like "fastboot oem partition" and "fastboot getvar all". I don't say the MotoG is hardbricked because when is in fastboot the pc recognizes it as Moto g 2014 . I cannot install any of the custom recoverys because the flash into recovery fails, but I can boot up Cyanogenmod recovery into ram. Tried to install an update from the external SD card using CM but it gives error messages about being unable to mount files and directories, which leads me to think that the Linux file system is corrupted. Cannot use ADB because fastboot nor CM recovery have the option. Using ADB sideload from CM gives error about being unable to mount files and directories too.
Since the MotoG is useless now, and I'm loosing hope about this phone, and I'm mad at Motorora for the cheap quality of their engineering that allowed the phone to fail in the first place. I'm thinking about the procedure I've seen on the forum, but used on the Moto G 2013, the one that wipes the bootloader and then blankflash the phone, risking a Hardbrick. Some people in the forum says that blankflash for 2013 wouldn't work on the 2014, others say it would, from the emmc standpoit both devices seems the same to me.
Sorry for the long story. Any suggestion to recover the MotoG is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Don't know exactly what wrong.
Try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-stock-firmware-5-0-2-lxb22-46-t3019612
It should fix your problem (There is bootloader files included in the zip file so try flashing that.)
If you think my solution isn't good enough,, wait for someone who can tell you a proper answer. Peace.

Okay, I had a perfectly working Moto X4 (Indian Retail version), rooted and debloated. But then the idea of going back to unrooted struck me and I flashed the ROM with no problem. Then, I went back to the Bootloader (Had USB Debugging turned on and OEM Unlock "NOT" turned on in the Developer Options) and locked the bootloader by running oem lock and then, the Phone won't boot -
It gave me the message --
" Your Device is Corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot."
From then, I've tried reflashing the firmware - No luck.
It gives a "Permission denied" message in cmd and fails.
Unlocking the OEM worked with the get_unlock_data but then it asked me to turn on USB debugging in the developer options (and I can' boot the phone past the message).
I've tried booting into recovery, won't work - just the same message. Tried booting into the bootable TWRP - Won't work. Same message.
Fastboot erase cache erases the cache and won't do anything else.
PLEASE HELP ME. PLEASE....

At the time of posting there are only stock images available for the Retail US version of the X4. The only way to get back is to have backed up your original rom and also have "OEM Unlock" enabled in dev settings. Try contacting Lenovo and tell them your issue. They may be able to assist you by providing a stock firmware image or by having you send in your device for service.
Hi, i have just made the exact mistake you did. Did you manage to find a way to fix this?
FIX
For anyone that does get this issue i have managed to find a fix.
If you are unable to flash the official firmware (7.1.1/8.0) with locked boot loader then with fastboot enter "fastboot boot boot.img", this worked for me and i was able to get into android and enable OEM unlock to unlock the bootloader and then flash the official firmware.
I couldn't fix it. And the service center is not providing warranty since I've unlocked the bootloader and they're saying it's irreparable and asking me to change the whole motherboard of a 1 month old handset. I'll be bringing the phone back from service center tomorrow and will be trying this method

First try factory reset (in recovery).
Go into bootloader, use vol buttons till it says boot recovery. It should reboot and show an android on its back. Press power and vol up. Then go down to format. Select the bottom option. It should take a few seconds and select reboot and it mite work if not just follow the above guide.
If that doesnt work,
download the stock firmware (i used 7.1.1) it can be found all over xda.
Use fastboot to boot the boot image e.g.
fastboot boot boot.img

It should start to boot, once you have booted you setup the phone and enable oem unlock in the dev options. Go back into bootloader and unlock it with fast boot (fastboot oem unlock) and if it has already been unlocked before it should unlock. If you haven't unlocked the bootloader before, now is the time to do it. Once unlocked flash stock firmware, 7.1.1 or 8.0. good luck

You could try booting to the TWRP recovery, i.e. fastboot boot TWRP.img
and then wiping data from there.

In think this depends on the firmware as oreo has encryption that does not play nice with twrp so it may not work, worth a try though.
nope. trying fastboot boot boot.img gives a <bootloader> permission denied! message and fails

Use mfastboot not fastboot, you'll have to add this to your tools. It's Motorola fastboot with proper permission.

Can you boot into twrp?? When i flashed my shamu first time...i unlocked bootloader, flashed twrp, rooted and then via twrp flashed roms from zips, gapps and magisk. As far as i remember. Otg is some times really tricky...i tried several usb sticks and suddenly one worked and i got forward in flashing. Nowadays my pc recognise my shamu in twrp and i can move files in it (if needed). Hope that helps.

Yes, I can boot into twrp using this command...
fastboot.exe boot twrp-3.2.1-0-shamu.img
This bringstwrp in my phone. But I can't move files to the phone. Even I tried adb push which pushes the files to the phone but while installing it got failed.. I'm not sure what I'm missing..
I think the problem is the fastboot you are using is not compatible with shamu. See if this minimal install works any better; [TOOL]Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Try one of the older releases, maybe 1.4 or 1.3.

Looks to me that my filesystem on is corrupt. Is there any commands to fix the filesystem. I tried with repair in TWRP but that is also not working.

When in doubt, my philosophy is to return to stock and start over. If you have any data on the user data partition, back it up through ADB and then try fastboot flashing the last google stock ROM. The instructions (if you need them) are on the Factory Image page. If Fastboot still fails, you can try sideloading through ADB an Full OTA.

Thank you very much for your response. I tried both Fastboot and ADB. Both failed Well, I suppose if I could flash the right radio 'D4.01-9625-05.45+FSG-9625-02.117', I guess Fastboot would work. Am I right.
What is the right way to identify the correct radio file.

Radio makes no difference. You can run any radio from any release on any release. It affects only the data/cell connection and sometimes an older one forces better performance depending on carrier and location.
Try fastboot flashing with the sim card removed.
The manual steps to flash through fastboot are in the [GUIDE][HOW TO] Flash Factory Images thread. Scroll down to "Method 2 : (Long, but works always)".

That was your first error! You can't flash a nightly via fastboot.
You need to boot into recovery and select it there to install.

You are trying to fastboot flash the STOCK ROM I linked to earlier, right?
As @Elektroschmock pointed out -and I originally missed- your first mistake was trying to fastboot flash the lineage ROM. You also CAN NOT ADB sideload anything except the OTA stock image linked to earlier. That includes the stock ROM used to fastboot flash, or any custom ROM.
** If ** you really are trying to fastboot flash stock, and it doesn't work, what does:
Code:
fastboot devices
return?
The N6 is a simple device to work with and very forgiving, but you must use common sense and think about what your doing.

Yes, I'm trying stock and followed links that you provided. Both installation methods failed.
Fastboot devices returns,
C:\Users\Vignesh\Downloads\Nexus\platform-tools-latest-windows\platform-tools>fastboot devices
ZX1G525DZX fastboot
Extract the zip file downloaded from the factory image page. For example, downloaded file is "shamu-n6f27h-factory-718e138f.zip" then when extracted I get a folder "shamu-n6f27h".
Navigate into the extracted folder (e.g "shamu-n6f27h")
Now copy the radio-shamu-XXXXXX.img (the x's are placeholders it depends on the radio version) to the location where your fastboot is then rename it to just "radio.img"
Back in the originally extracted folder ("shamu-n6f27h"), there will be another zip file, in my example it's "image-shamu-n6f27h.zip". Extract that and I end up with a folder "image-shamu-n6f27h".
Now copy the following files from the new folder (e.g. "image-shamu-n6f27h") to the location where your fastboot is;
boot.img
cache.img
recovery.img
system.img
userdata.img
Navigate on the PC to the location where the fastboot binary is.
Boot the phone into fastboot by pushing and holding the volume down and power buttons
Look on the phone's screen and there should be a message "Device is unlocked. Status Code 3" confirming the bootloader is unlocked.
Double check that "fastboot devices" returns your device.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader", which will power off the phone and start it again in the same place. Just double checking that you are communicating correctly with the device.
Code:
1) flash the boot image (also called the kernel):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
reboot:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
2) If you want, you can flash the radio:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
reboot:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
3) flash recovery:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
reboot:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
4) flash system partition:
fastboot flash system system.img
reboot:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
5) flash userdata (which will wipe the internal storage:
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
reboot:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
6) flash cache:
fastboot flash cache cache.img
Now we are done flashing all of the partitions on a N6 so reboot to system:
fastboot reboot
If any of these fail, or don't match what I described above, post the exact errors here, preferably formatted within CODE tags. They look like: [ CODE ] [ / CODE ] without any spaces inside the brackets. The spaces are necessary to prevent the forum from executing the example as formating tags.
Posting "it doesn't work" may be funny, but it does nothing to help others help you. You must be specific as to what you were doing and what happened.

Couple of questions.
You are working on a Nexus 6, right? Not a 6P or other device?
Did you reboot between each img flash? When you returned to the bootloader each time after rebooting, did you long press the power button because it still said "locked status 2"?
I have to say, this is the first I've ever heard of a reboot causing it to be locked then long pressing the power button to unlock. Either the bootloader is unlocked or it isn't.

---------- Post added at 14:03 ---------- Previous post was at 14:00 ----------
Additional question, when you reboot using only the key combination, does it always show unlocked?
If yes to that, maybe it's back to my concern that the version of fastboot is not working well with the N6.
If you haven't, try with the minimal version you downloaded the other day.

1] If u can get to twrp, use microUSB flash drive and move ROMs over to flash via TWRP. Must mount OTG drive in TWRP after plugin to recognize flash drive
2) if u can get to fastboot mode and your PC recognizes your device via "fastboot device" command, try using WUG NRT tool kit to restore back to stock, then root @ND put TWRP on there, then flash custom Roms via TWRP
novice here. screwed up my 6p and got in a similar place as you are. i started adb side load in my phone and linux pc terminal, adb start-server, then adb sideload [add a space] then i dragged and dropped the factory firmware to terminal then enter. i had to try a couple of googles angler firmware before it found the the right format. saved my bacon.
Good point. If fails on Windows, Linux PC may work
Hi,
My brother wanted to unroot by Magisk phone and only whats happend is that while booting its No command screen. Ofc i tried factory reset and nothing.
I have installed minimal adb and drivers for x4, in device manager there is Motorola ADB Interface under Android Device.
By typing: fastboot devices, it shows my plugged phone. I downloaded official firmware but while flashing there are always errors:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
->
(bootloader) partitio: not found
sending 'partition' (37 KB)... and stays there forever
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
->
(bootloader) max-downlo: not found
sending 'bootloader' (9520 KB)...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.003s
fastboot flash dsp_a dspso.bin
->
sending 'dsp_a' (16384 KB)...
(bootloader) Requested download size is more than max allowed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.005s
Any help?
Turns out, that I needed turn on my old notebook and use 2.0 usb, then it worked
