Hi,
I have an XT1072 which was rooted and running CM. Since I wanted to install stock ROM, I used the Windows Tool from this forum to restore stock Android. By doing so, I was stuck with Bootloader locked screen.
Since then I am stuck on Fastboot Flash Mode screen (see pic attached).
When I try to connect my device to the same PC or any other PC and try mfastboot or fastboot or any command, it just says Waiting for device. I have all the required drivers installed in all the PCs I tested.
Using the volume buttoms, I am able to select any option, but it wont open any option (such as Normal Powerup or Recovery)
Can someone help?
Thanks
anyone?

Your system image is signed using incorrect key. Reflash system partition with factory image.

Hi, I am unable to do anything as the phone is not even identified by the PC, and although I am able to select any option using the volume buttons, it doesn't do anything.
Any other suggestions on how to re-flash as you said?

Hi, like I said above, I have tried fastboot and mfastboot commands but when I try that it says "waiting for device" and it does nothing.
I have ADB and fastboot drivers on my pc, and they used to work just before I encountered the above mentioned error.
Not sure how to proceed here.
Thanks if you could provide a workable solution.

Any luck?
Hi Guys,
I know this is a long shot as this is an old thread but did you get anywhere with a resolution to this?
I'm in the exact same position.
Tried flashing with different factory roms and "fastboot boot" to try force it to boot a twrp image
I'm also stuck here, anyone has had any luck?
Guys i think you just need to flash over the entire fw.
Just get fastboot+mfastbootv2, motoroladevicemanager (for phone drivers) and then flash over the original stock fw, you can get the right one for you phone/region here -> http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=50

This will flash the fw, factory reset and reboot the phone.
I tried doing this but as soon as I enter "mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin" it

I tried doing this but as soon as I enter "mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin" it gives me the error "Preflash validation failed". I always get the same error when trying to flash ANYHTING. I suppose it is because i relocked the bootloader out of ignorance. I' a bit desperate actually, I think I might have a brick... but I won't give up!
Sorry guys tought that could help, i fixed mine like that, flashing latest reteu fw on my reteeu phone, mine was unlocked tought ^^ when this happened to me, but doing some more investigation reveal more and more posts whit the same problem and unlocked bootloader.
if you had it unlocked previusly may be worth checking, if the "get unlock code" work or not and check the old mails for the unlock code sent by motorola (luckly i have a backup of mine xD).
Anyway Luk1137 was talking about /system partition only, worh trying
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

Bootloader should check if boot and system images are correct otherwise it should send user back to bootloader.

I gave this a shot as suggested and I'm getting this error:

Also getting the error:

Out of tricks stock flash + factory reset always worked for me sorry.
I noted my phone model/region before doing anything (xt1072-thea-reteu) got the right fw and it worked fine, maybe was another problem giving the same error "failed to validate system image" unable to boot and stuck in bootloader, weird.... :\
Well thanks for trying.
I've been giving it another shot again and I still can't get past these errors.
Anyone any more ideas or shall we admit defeat?

My phone is in a drawer I'd love to be able to fix it because I really miss Android now but it there doesn't seem to be a solution... I am no giving up hope entirely though!
I tink that I have similar problem with my X1072.
After unroot with Kingroot and install AdAway and TWRP from Google Play I even noticed that I hadn't unlock bootolader.
Now I can't reboot my phone without entering in Bootloader and reseting to factory defaults. After some reboots no data has been deleted.
I have tried to reflash the entire phone but In bootloader mode the phone is not detected by the computer, so I can't flash. I'm stucked. by now

Also remember if you are on another model and not XT1072 you should dl the correct image for your phone from HERE Look if Android 6 is available for your country, if you have gb-de-fr-es you can use the EU stock image.
Unpack everything in the same folder and launch the *.BAT as admin

I foolishly didn't create a backup. I know. Stupid of me.
I have a Moto G 2nd Gen model XT1064 (USA, purchased at Best Buy off contract, Single SIM). I can fastboot and I have TWRP recovery installed. I cannot find a rom that works however. Of all the .zips I've downloaded only one, a dual SIM UK version, boots. But it does not recognize my SIM or wifi chip. The others fail without giving me an error as to why.
UPDATE: This thread.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/restore-to-stock-t2873657 helped restore my wifi, though the firmware linked was a dual sim and I cannot enable my SIM card, the option is grayed out.
I have tried over the past day to try and get this to go back to its factory image with no luck at all. I have a Nexus 4, seeing as it has a toolkit and factory images readily available, its always easy to work on. This Moto G is a different story.
What do I need to get this back right? I may already have the files and not even realize it..
Thanks for any help!

You cannot use custom recovery(TWRP) to flash this.
You need to follow this and you will lose data.
Unlock the bootloader.
Download Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US from droid-developers dot org slash phone device 36
Unzip that file into your fastboot folder
Enter Fastboot on your phone (how to: hold power and volume down until your device turns off, then hold it another 5-10 seconds, then let go and you should see a basic text screen)
Use these commands on your computer while being in the fastboot folder.
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
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache

Once you get back to full stock 4.4.4, take a look at this so you won't need to do that again. This (TWRP) will also backup your PDS should you somehow bork the MEID or anything later...
Cheap insurance
EDIT: TWRP doesn't backup PDS by default. You must select it prior to the backup. Just thought I should clarify that.

Thank you so much I spent the last 3 hours trying to recover from a softbrick and this did the trick. :good:
Hi,
I have a Brazilan version XT1097, bootloader unlocked but no root yet.
I cannot install anything from play store because I get an error that does not say much.
All I did was trying to root using a guide I found that tells you to use CF-Autoroot, but it just did not work.
Then I installed TWRP to see if there was any ROMs available since I came from the Nexus 5 and was used to see tons of ROMs on xda to grab and flash.
To my surprise, none is available so far.
Now I am trying to find the original 1097 images to flash on my device and go back to stock.
Might even give up on root, if necessary, but I need the phone back
Any ideas on how to proceed?
A different problem now
The user seco2004 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4946010) has provided me with his backup image.
I followed the steps on the motorola website to flash all the files but my phone is stuck at the bootloader warning message, that one that says that the bootloader is unlocked.
When I entered TWRP to wipe all over again, it says there is no system installed...
Any pointers are most welcome!

I'm not sure if this is what you tried before, but there's pretty much no chance of anything going wrong if you follow the commands:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
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
mfastboot flash system system.img (maybe you missed this part? instead of the "system.img", you need to flash the system files one at a time, something like: mfastboot flash system systemfile_1.img, the mfastboot flash system systemfile_2.img, and then proceed with the commands below)
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem config carrier vzw
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
After all this the phone should boot normally into stock 4.4.4. Sorry for the delay, Tapatalk didn't notify me , hope you got it fixed already.

I upgraded it to lollipop and rooted right afterwards

secco2004 shared me his backups
But is it 1097 lollipop or 1095 with the módem from 1097? Can you share dais backup? I'm Being unable to tether and would like to find out if it is the rom or the phone.
Greetings !
It was actually the KK 4.4.4 original images.
I had to update to lollipop right after via OTA.
IDK if secco2004 allows me to share it. Could you PM him, please?
He posted recently on the topic.
Yeah, it was actually the 4.4.4 Brazilian firmware, feel free to share it. For lollipop I have just the flasheable zip.

Since secco2004 said it is ok to share, tell me if you want me to sent it somewhere...
It is the XT1097 4.4.4 brazilian original images.
hey, can I have XT1097 stock images please?
I also need it
I flashed NX CM12.1 v3.0 rom and lost gps.
Someone in the thread said that i have to go back to stock, verify gps is working properly... blah, blah, blah.....
So the thing is that i don´t know what stock image to use on my phone and where to get it.
It is a XT1097.
Can any of you guys help me?
Need help please
I've flashed ATT_XT1097_5.0.2_system_ ext4_ root.zip using Mofo.exe and followed directions to the T but soon as its done flashing I reboot back into fastboot mode to wipe the cache but gives me error hab check failed for recovery failed to validate recovery image boot up failed. Please any help would be a life savor i'm lost. Anyone know where to find recovery.img file for Moto X XT1097 stock image file maybe I can flash in fastboot mode? I just hope I Dont have a bricked device. I am stuck in bootloop mode and can't wipe cache.
Thanks!
I really thank you, it worked for me! :good:
Hi guys,
So I have an XT1092. It all started out innocently enough, when I flashed the 5.1 full firmware from the fourth post in this thread. It didn't want to work and got stuck in a... let's just call it a bootloop..., no matter what I did. So I re-flashed the 5.0 firmware that had worked previously. Same thing.
So then I figured that since it's not working, I may as well try converting it to a XT1095 as per this thread. Which worked! I was running 4.4.4 last night and all was good.
Then, it took an OTA in the early hours of this morning, which has since resulted in me losing all ability to use the phone at all.
When I hold the power button, a green light briefly flashes, which typically means that's the battery is dead (it was on charge all night, and still connected at this time). But when I hook it up to my PC, it shows up as a "QHUSB_BULK" - whatever that is.
...what can I do, guys?
Sorry, but there is nothing you can do if it says that. You will have to send it in for repair.

When you did that, you upgraded the bootloader and partition table to 5.1.

When you did that, it did not downgrade the bootloader and partition table - they stayed on 5.1.

When you did that, the OTA tried to patch the 5.1 BL and PT as if they were the 4.4.4 BL and PT. But you were running the 5.1 BL and PT. That caused a brick.

Wait for someone to release the blankflash files for 5.1 (which were never leaked for 4.4.4 or 5.0 so they may never be leaked) or send it in for warranty replacement.

Well, I see you used my post to downgrade to 4.4.4 and worked for you. And that's odd, because you flashed the "official" firmware of your model previously and got a bootloop. And some people are saying that downgrading your firmware from 5.1 to 4.4.4 will brick and that's not your case.... You bricked after taking the OTA and that's weird because after flashing the 5.1 of your model you upgraded your partition and your boot loader. What I am guessing here is that maybe the partitions and the boot loader of a different version like yours are incompatible with the pure edition. Maybe you can share with us what did you do after the first bootloop to downgrade to the 4.4.4, like what files did your use and what fastboot commands did you use too.
Sorry for your phone, but in several post people are warning that after downgrading from a 5.1 soak you don't have to take OTA.

These aren't Nexus devices. People can't flash whatever they want, downgrade and then take OTAs and never have to worry about bricking.
Rule of thumb - when in doubt don't flash the bootloader or partition table and never take an OTA after downgrading the bootloader.

My response was succinct, used a memorable distinction as well as a catchy rule of thumb and had adequate paragraph breaks. IOW easier to understand with a nice rhythm to it.
Try to sent to warranty centre , but in my case Motorola didn't cover me this issue.

Right, so here's what I did.
1) the 5.1 OTA never worked for me - would always fail during flashing for some reason. So when I found the above post, I flashed the "VICTARA_RETEU_XT1092__5.1_LPE23.32-25.1_cid7_CFC.xml" package with the following commands:
Code:
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot reboot
Then seeing as it didn't want to work, and from prior experience with TWRP being annoying, I then flashed the recovery with "mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Then came the bootloops. Now, I say "bootloops" but it was more complicated than that. What would happen is the boot animation would load up, then once the screen "dimmed" it would turn off. As I didn't clear userdata the first time, it would do the whole "android is upgrading x/65749823562743 apps" message... then reboot after the last one, and start again from the start. I cleared cache and userdata and then something else happened; after the screen dimming, it would turn 'off' but apparently still load. Every now & then, the screen would flash on for just an instant. Long enough for me to see some kind of error, but not long enough to find out what.
2) Giving up on this, I re-flashed the 5.0 "RETEUALL_XT1092_5.0_LXE22.46-19_cid7_CFC.xml" package with the following script:
Code:
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-victara.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot reboot
Nothing remarkable there, although I notice that I didn't flash gpt.bin. Can't think why I didn't do that right now, tbh
Anyway, exactly the same issue occurred!
3) not having the patience to deal with that **** as it was nearing 3am, I flashed 4.4.4 "TMO_21.21.42.victara_tmo.tmo.en.US" with the following script:
Code:
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 flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot reboot
...which worked! The phone started normally and all seemed good. I was pretty chuffed.
Then, without thinking I accepted the 5.0 OTA when I awoke all bleary-eyed this morning, and she died. And here we are.
Motorola support seems to think I should return it to them, so they're coming to pick it up on Friday morning. heh.

They should give you a warranty replacement - their OTAs should have checks in them to fail to update rather than brick a device when you are running a newer BL than the one the OTA was written to update. This is their fault. Poor coding on the part of the software devs who wrote the OTAs.
The OTAs should check the bootloader version. If it is not the version the OTA was meant to update, the OTA should simply fail to update. End of problem. One simple IF-THEN statement would prevent this.
you'd think so....

I think I know what generated the bootloop, happened to me two days ago. When you upgraded your system and data partition and didn't erased your data, the old data tried to "fit" the new partition, that's why the system the first time was trying to update your apps, but after failing entered again on bootloop. Don't know why this happens, from 4.4.4 to 5.0 you could upgrade without erasing data and nothing happened.

Although you didn't flashed the gpt nothing would happened, just an error on fastboot, because you can't downgrade bootloader, the first time you flashed the new version 60.16 and the version on 5.0 is the 60.11.
The bootloop happened because the same reason, your data was there and the system wasn't able to make it "fit" to the new partition, the one you flashed with the 5.1.[/QUOTE]

OK. After your final flash you flashed the system and erased data and cache, and the partitions were "clear" from all apps and other stuff, so the system was able to "fit" your data to the partitions properly, that's why your phone booted as brand new, am I right??? Seems that the partitions are compatible from 4.4.4 to 5.1 only if you erase data.
The problem is the next. The first flash set the new bootloader 60.16 and the new partitions, but when you didn't erase your data and cache the phone created a conflict with the old data and new partitions (that's the reason of the bootloop) but, when you flashed the 4.4.4 and erased your data the phone was able to boot with the new partitions. The brick was caused because of the OTA of 5.0 and that's because 5.0 uses bootloader version 60.11 and you were already on 60.16 and, the big problem with motorola OTA's is that they didn't check the mismatch between bootloaders like fastboot does, so the OTA forced the downgrade "thinking" it was an upgrade and bricked your phone. Fastboot didn't allow you to downgrade bootloader, but clearly OTA does and that's the reason of bricked devices.
Your phone should be on warranty because it wasn't your fault (not entirely) because of faulty OTA's.
Resuming. After you are on bootloader version 60.14 or 60.16 you can't take any 5.0 OTA because the mismatch between old and nw bootloaders.
Glad to see that motorola are taking to warranty. And thanks for your well explained situation so everybody could take it as reference!

I forgot to mention; before attempting the downgrade to 5.0, I was able to enter recovery and do a factory reset - I wiped userdata and even the sdcard, and that's where it started just 'looping' with the odd screen flicker.
The fact that it still shows up as something in Windows Device Manager gives me hope. If it were completely out of warranty, I'd try to hack the Qualcomm rescue tools for other phones that report that same QHSUSB_BULK device into doing something with this.

The issue isn't the tools. The tool for reflashing is there. But you need a bin and hex file specific to your device/bootloader that only Moto has right now. Unless it is released/leaked, SOL right now unfortunately.

So, the phone has been sent back to me on the same day they received it. No call, no email. nothing. Weird. I hope they fixed it - I assume they did, otherwise they would have contacted me for payment info.
I'll report back!

Same Model .. Hard Bricked xt1092
i bought it a month ago from flipkart.
when i was doing the OTA update from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 the installation finished from the recovery and never booted.
when i try to plug in to PC its shows QHUSB_BULK
i tried blankflash but it says FAILED
all the drivers are installed something that ends with Qualcomm.. 9008
is there any way that i cn unbrick it myself?

Hi guys,
Hoping you lovely people can help.
I think I may have bricked my device.
It's stuck in a fastboot bootloop with the error code "failed to validate system image"
Now my (amateur) thinking of this is it's possibly due to the device now being OEM locked? Status 2. As I accidentally locked it like a fool.
I can't get into developer options to enable OEM unlock as it wont boot to system.
I've been going through all the forums and can't find any help.
Thank you all in advance

Hi I seem to be having some major issues with my Xt1072 and cannot get it to boot!
It all started with the message popping up saying error creating mount script in second partition?
I got sick of this so I started rebooting the phone to see if I could rectify it?! and like before it just kept getting stuck in bootloop. then as the hours progressed it got worse and eventually i am at the point where my pc does not see it, then it sees it, then it doesnt see it? then I got my phone stuck in the weirdest loop Ive ever seen, it actually boots to the home screen, then 10 seconds later, screen goes black and then wakes up again and back to home screen, 10 seconds later the process gets repeated over and over again, the only thing that seems to stop it dead in its tracks is when I connect it to my pc and hold power and vol down simultaneously. now all it does sometimes is just goes straight to a white screen with huge battery charging and thats it?! i tried the commands which ive quoted below with the resulting cmd:getvar:max-sparse-size on the bootloader screen on my phone???? what does it all mean??? anyone know what the hell is going on??? I am at a loss??

Hi I have a problem related to this. The phone is not mine, but the owner has been doing things about rooting and that, and after touching things of the phone and reboot it, it was stuck on the motorola logo, I am able to use mfastboot, and I have followed the guides said in this post, but nothing works.
Could you help me?
Thanks.
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
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
Thank you so much!! I tried this before with no avail. I think the website I used for the commands didn't have the first few that you had. But it worked, my phone booted up. Thanks again so much!

You're welcome, glad it worked!
If you want to try custom roms again, I've been using TWRP 3.0.2-1 and it seems to have no issues so far (and I'm running the latest CM Nightlies).

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.

I have been out the android scene for over a year now so I am a little rusty lol.

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.

Thanks, I am at work now but as soon as I get home I will give it a go. I have been on iOS for over a year now and my moto has been dead since about a month after moto allowed us to unlock the verizon variant. Stupid thing lol.
how do I check the amount of sparsechunks that I have. Sorry for the dumb question
