nah this don't work
when i try to lock it it says sign flash signed images firstly, 2nd command i get an error and the 3rd also an error. every other command other than fastboot oem lock worked, so i think I'm on the uk stock rom(its not in the link you posted btw, i got it else where).
yeah I'm on stock gb and am getting ota updates but my boot loader is still unlocked?

the lock is the last command, if you don't flash all the files in order the last command will not work, only exception is the gpt.bim, but is a maybe...
so if you have error principal on line 3, you need to check if the file exist, it command is flashing a file, if the file don't exist will not flash and a error show, and check all the command again, try and make a print screen of the process and the folder with all the file, and put it here...
if you have a full original Motorola ROM it must work, if everything check the rom is the probem.
I know i may have check everything command files it all , but i must try all possibilities.
and way you need to lock it?
i don't use mac, just windows and the PC or MAC is not the problem becouse i use that some order of commnad's last time i lock my phone but i lock just to see if is possible because after you unlocked you never need to change for noting.
bootloader have 3 stats:
Status code 0 =locked with warranty
Status code 3 = unlocked without warranty
Status code 2= re-locked but also without warranty
Status code 1 is unknown.
you can receive and install the OTA if you have the stock ROM no changes no root + stock recovery and boot images, bootloader status doesn't change a ting.
the only uses for re-locked it is to test if you can, or test if the rom is full stock or try to send for repair but in that last depending on the region it will not be repair for free, because it loses the warranty after bootloader unlock, but if yours region don't care for bootloader status, or the help center care but don't notes it you can try and have success.

let me explain what exactly happened. l was running LiquidSmooth v3.2 on my Moto X. I have flashed few roms previously as well. I was facing no issues whatsoever but still wanted to upgrade to LiquidSmooth v4.0. So this time when I got on fastboot menu
and chose recovery, I got invalid kernel/ ramdisk size error. I was not able to enter recovery menu and this has happened to me for the first time. I chose normal reboot and then even the phone was working fine. But now, things have gone worse. I entered fastboot menu again and by mistake chose factory option instead of recovery. Phone started rebooting i think. As i had installed LiveLog app on my phone all I could see was logs on the screen. I waited for around 45 minutes but phone didnt boot up. I switched off and restarted again but same result. I think it is bricked. Is there any way I can get my phone back to working state? Any kind of help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step Two
Returning device Stock and Locking Bootloader
1. Open your firmware and extract the files to the same folder as adb/fastboot and mfastboot.
2. open a CMD window and CD into the directory that we just extracted all the files too
3. type below commands one by one
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot oem lock
i recommend wiping your device also but that is up to you if you dont want
to then skip the next two commands and just type the reboot command
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
after your phone is done rebooting you will be completely stock firmware of your choice
Enjoy

you can def do that but if you want to try to bring it back to life without going to stock you can try this.
Flash your custom recovery again threw fastboot. then after that if you can boot into it just reinstall LS rom and try and boot your phone up if no luck then just follow the above guide from my thread and return to stock and redo everything
Thanks for the help guys. I have a question here : Will returning to stock undo root ? And do I have to unlock the bootloader again ??

Yes Root Romoved, don't use last command "fastboot oem lock" if you want bootloader still unlocked
Sound advice above... Except there's no reason to lock your bootloader again. I'd skip that part. And remain unlocked. ?
Thanks a lot. I will try this method today and then flash LiquidSmooth v4.0. Just in case if I face any problem, I'll be back.

I'm facing problems downloading the firmware from the filefactory. Is there any mirror link ?
Also, for this operation do I have to use this file only or can I use LiquidSmooth v3.2 file as well?

what carrier is your phone from i will try and find a good like for the stock firmware.
but like i said i would try to just flash the custom recovery and see if you can boot into it. if you can you might not have to go back to completely stock from the recovery you can iinstall liquid smooth rom. it has its own kernel so it should fix the kernel issue and system issues. if not then you can go back to flashing everything to stock.
It didn't come with any carrier. I bought it here in India.
Sorry for the noobie question here, but does USB debugginv needs to be on for this, as I dont remember if its on or not.
Also, can you please guide me through the steps so that I do not make any mistakes this time. I'm really scared this time and I don't wanna hard brick my phone. I'd be really very thankful.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
Thank you for your help, guys.
I think I am back to factory because I'm no longer getting the LiveLogs on the boot up screen. I'm getting the stock Motorola bootup screen that means LiveLogs and all other apps have been removed. But again, I'm still stuck on boot. Its not going past Motorola logo.
One more thing, while returning back to recovery, on cmd screen I was getting <bootloader> Variable not supported error.

No. USB Debugging does not need to be on when using RSDLite or mFastboot.

At this point, I would consider redoing the steps outlined by @dray_jr earlier in this thread.. with a few tweaks...
its important to be using the correct ROM for your phone. Is there fine print on the back of your phone, does it say XT1052? If so, the link to the Asia XT1052 4.4.4 rom should be correct.
Next... use mfastboot for ALL parts, not just system.img, and follow these steps.. Yes, the are very similar to what you did already, and yes, i know some are repeated, that is intentional.
mfastboot getvar max-download-size
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot reboot
OPTIONAL, but in your case might be necessary: just before the final mfastboot reboot command, issue... mfastboot erase userdata this will erase your apps and data.
If any of these commands fail, please make sure you capture it and post it. (NOTE: there is a way to select and copy on the text from the CMD Prompt window, please do that, rather than screen shot)
Once your phone boots up properly, it will be back to stock, unrooted, but as long as you don't do the "oem lock" command with mfastboot or fastboot, your bootloader will remain unlocked. You can then flash TWRP or other custom recovery and re-root.
I have the XT-1052 version of Moto X and its running the Asia Retail firmware. I had unlocked the bootloader and flashed CM12 but returned to stock rom through this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/retail-firmware-uploaded-xt1052-t2976596. I will be selling the device and want to re lock the bootloader. Can i type the ''fastboot oem lock'' command in mfastboot tool and re lock the bootloader? Also, will it erase the whole data on the device?

Yes, fastboot oem lock will lock it, and no it will not wipe data. Only unlocking wipes data.
But you status code will show relocked you can never get status code back to locked once unlocked.

Correct. Whoever has the phone will be able to see the "tamper seal" that shows the bootloader was previously unlocked, but is now locked again.
I would provide whoever you sell the phone to the bootloader unlock code so they can unlock in the future if they so desire. Not sure if they can request the code from Motorola again or not.

I tried it but it asks me to flash the signed images. The link i mentioned above comes with an XML file which dictates the steps RSD should be following, right? So if i upload the XML file can you edit the command line and add the command? I am not an expert in this stuff.
i have relocked flashing manually with fastboot, not sure if you add the oem lock cmd to the xml will work.
fastboot oem lock begin

fastboot flash system system.img

Thanks man. Will update about how it goes.
I downloaded Android Marshmallow after reading news about it through settings/about/system updates.
After downloading, the phone restarted but updatation was stuck after flashing TWRP screen (error screen photo attached)
My phone is
bootloader unlocked,
recovery TWRP
rooted
ROM is stock.
It seems the OTA update will be completed once I have stock recovery,
I have following queries
Is it necessary to revert to stock recovery to complete OTA update?
If yes, how to achieve it, what i learnt through search, I need to find Stock ROM zips and extract recovery (boot.img) and then flash it through adb?
where to look for thea stock rom and is there any easier method
It's risky, a lot of users here for some reasons got stuck whit locked/unlocked bootloader unable to boot and flash anything.
Here you can find all the motog stock roms http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=50
You should wait for the complete rom image for your country/model to pop there instead doing that risky thing you want do.
Thanks
Recently stock rom for xt1079 has been added to the list.
But I m trying to download from filefactory since yesterday but due to some reason, it stops in between and resume isn't supported.
Are there any other hosts
Are you sure the region of that xt1079 is right for your phonr ? check the phone box and the info inside settings to know which region/carrier you have, you must use the same identical 100% stock to avoid problems
And, do no relock bootloader !!!
yes i bought this through online retailer in India.
It is xt1079 Asia
I see in xda forum of moto g 2nd gen most of the time ppl are talking about xt1078.
What's the difference between xt1078/1079 and can't I use xt1078 ROM.
Rooting procedure meant for xt1078 worked fine for me
And Sir is relocking bootloader very risky ? suppose something goes wrong wont I be able to unlock or restore nandroid backup.
Thanks to support from Dr.nic I am finally on android 6.0
Although I have relocked my bootloader, but it is recommended to leave as it is.
If anyone stumbles here with same problem like mine i.e. unable to upgrade to android 6.0 just because of custom recovery, then pls download the firmware from filefactory.com link and flash. I'll add flashing commands as well to this post in near future.
if you have already done this rom change etc, the you must already be having fastboot, adb etc.
after connecting in fastboot mode holding VolDown and Power for few secs
run following commands
[this is for android 6.0 firmware]
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

So the other day I tried to go back to stock from resurrection remix using a stock 5.1 file I found on this website. I used to flash and all that kind of stuff a while ago but haven't in a while and lost my touch. So basically I know I did it wrong and now there is no OS on the phone. I can access both TWRP and Fastboot mode but that's it. When I try to boot it shows the bootloader unlock screen, vibrates and then goes to a black screen that flashes the little android guy with his stomach open every so often. I tried flashing both stock and RR twice and still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
P.S. I have the Verizon XT1096 Variant.

So you have the Motorola USB drivers installed:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
Recent versions of ADB/Fastboot.
Latest stock firmware:
firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20X%20%282nd%20gen-2014%29/Stock/XT1096/
Probably VICTARA_VERIZON_XT1096_5.1_LPE23.32-25-5_cid2_CFC.xml.zip
Extract the firmware and put the 4 ADB/Fastboot files in the folder with the firmware files.
Boot into Bootloader Mode and connect the phone, make sure the phone says "connected..."
Shift + right-click inside that folder, Open command window here... Paste these commands, BUT CHECK THE NUMBER of sparsechunks your firmware has:
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size

If you mean Motorola's mfastboot, no you don't have to, I always use the lastest fastboot to flash stock firmware, custom recovery, etc.
Of course, it's always best to have an unlocked bootloader, but then you lose warranty.

I am on mac so hopefully that is not causing any issues, but I am having the same exact problem as the OP. But I was missing that first command so I am thinking that'll fix it. When in twrp whenever I tried to flash anything or wipe partitions it threw up all kinds of errors about the partitions not being mounted and stuff. Do you think missing that first command would mess up the partition table or something?
This is the errors i got when trying to wipe.

The first two commands are not necessary, but they wouldn't cause any problems, nor fix any:
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
But before you start flashing anything on a phone, you should have the latest stock firmware on it, so that you have the latest bootloader and partition table. Some versions of TWRP (3.0) may have been corrupting partitions. You should try reflashing the latest partition table and bootloader from the latest firmware, then reflashing the latest TWRP 3.0.2-1.
I'm not familiar with macs... Is the phone encrypted?

no it was never encrypted. I have redownloaded the latest firmware on the chance that my download was corrupted or something. Should I flash the partition and boot images then restart into the bootloader before flashing the rest?

I guess it's safest to just flash the whole firmware as I have listed in the commands; these commands are contained in an XML file that comes with the firmware (flashfile.xml), the "reboot bootloader" after the partition table and bootloader flash, comes from Motorola's flashing instructions.

YOUR A LIFE SAVER Fakieskr
Whenever I try flashing a custom ROM i either loose my IMEI numbers and baseband version or simply get a NO SERVICE. The most recent custom rom i tried was Pixel Experience android 10, for this ROM i had my IMEI numbers and baseband version but got a "no service" - it did however detect my service provider.
Also when i flash the stock ROM back i don't get data(imei and baseband) immediately, i have to perform 2 OTA updates to get them.
So here's what i tried, flashed stock ROM did the 2 OTA updates to get my SIM to work and took a TWRP backup of EFS. Then flashed custom ROM and restored EFS but still didn't get the SIM working
I also took an entire backup of the stock ROM but when i try restoring it i get an error " Extract tar fork 255" in TWRP - now i believe this has to do with the fact tht i'm unable to flash TWRP recovery when on stock ROM (i keep getting a "no command" when i boot to recovery like this) but instead i have to directly boot into twrp every time - fastboot boot twrp.img and when i do it this way TWRP asks for a decrypt(?) password for which i press cancel.. which leads me to believe the backing up doesn't work properly because of this.
Any idea of to fix any of this?
Try to flash validus rom then back to stock.
While flashing stock skip
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
Then flash whatever you want.
And also in twrp try to repair data partition. Decrypt message could be bad disk sign.
I faced this issue, can't get 4G signal and speaking myself "how can validus rom solve this problem, nah just another silly solution"
But it solved!

Whenever I try flashing a custom ROM i either loose my IMEI numbers and baseband version or simply get a NO SERVICE. The most recent custom rom i tried was Pixel Experience android 10, for this ROM i had my IMEI numbers and baseband version but got a "no service" - it did however detect my service provider.
Also when i flash the stock ROM back i don't get data(imei and baseband) immediately, i have to perform 2 OTA updates to get them.
So here's what i tried, flashed stock ROM did the 2 OTA updates to get my SIM to work and took a TWRP backup of EFS. Then flashed custom ROM and restored EFS but still didn't get the SIM working

Trying it out on a Moto G5s plus. Validus to stock to dot OS. Let's see if it brings back the baseband and IMEI. Fingers crossed
