Hi Guys,
I have Moto G2 (XT1068) 2014 edition. I was using stock rom (5.0.2)
How the Problem started:
Dropped the phone.
What is the Issue:
Cannot charged - When connecting to wall charger, the bootlodaer icon shows and again device restarts. But i can enter Fastboot Menu. The phone will charge for some time then again restarts and enters boot loop (If battery is completely drained then it should start and then display the charging animation rt?).
When connecting to PC via USB same thing happens. When i enter boot menu, it shows Charging for few minutes then it says Battery - OK. IT does not enter boot loop in this case. But when i select 'Recovery' or 'Normal Powerup' or 'Factory Reset', it goes to 'Powered by Android' screen and then again goes into boot loop.
What I have tried:
1. Tried some fastboot commands 'erase usedata' & 'erase cache'.
2. I tired flashing Stock firmware. Used this guide - http://www.droidviews.com/restore-moto-g-2014-to-stock-and-lock-the-bootloader/
3. I unlocked bootloader. Flashed TWRP. But issue is not resolved. I cant enter Recovery coz phone will boot loop.
Need help!
@lost101

You are using a script and I'm not seeing the names of sparsechunks. It's better if you do the commands manually, one at a time - and copy and paste everything from command prompt. Be sure to flash every sparsechunk file in the firmware folder you are working with.

Don't flash any older Bootloader (motoboot.img) such as the one in 5.0.1 or 5.1 from this point on. I would focus on trying to get Android 6.0 to boot. Can you try again flashing different custom recoverys: TWRP and CWM.
It is possible to boot directly into a custom recovery with the following command: mfastboot boot twrp.img
Change the name of twrp.img to the name of the actual recovery.img

The phone appears to have been physically damaged (internally) by the fall. I don't know of any solution other than maybe replace mainboard - cheap off ebay if pulled from a screen-damaged unit.
Thanks a lot for your time and help!

So I can't see any visible errors, and my phone just gets stuck at the Honor logo when I try to boot into recovery via Holding Vol. Up + Power until I see the logo. Any ideas on how I can get TWRP installed?
I need TWRP to install Lineage OS, so if I can get Lineage OS with the stock recovery somehow, that's also an option for me I'm all ears.
try re install stock rom and recovery.

Rebooting into recovery OKAY [ 0.001s]
Finished. Total time: 0.001s
However, I got into the stock recovery page instead of TWRP. You can see above that the flash failed before I rebooted, but succeeded after that. Interesting observations:
- The above webpage indicates that the device should reset when I reboot, but it didn't, which means the unlock didn't work.
- When I went back to bootloader, the first attempt to flash failed, but when I ran another unlock it worked though apparently it did nothing.
Am I missing a step? I am using fastboot version 29.0.6-6198805 on Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6.
Don't reboot to recovery via a command after flashing it.
Try rebooting using buttons, vol-up + power.

Thank you! That got me into TWRP with a dialog titled "Unmodified System Partition" with a slider to allow modifications. I am googling to see what this dialogue is about and how to get TWRP to permanently get installed.
That's normal. Just enable modifications and that's it.

OK, I don't remember seeing it before (I haven't flashed in at least a couple of years). I ran `adb reboot recovery` and it did go back into TWRP, so I am assuming that it did get persisted. For some reason "Never show this screen..." option didn't work, which is fine, but does it indicate that something is still readonly?
I don't think so.
You're good to proceed.
I was able to sideload the ROM and opengapps nano and it is booting up for the first time. I skipped the optional step to install root (AddonSU), I guess I can do it later too if I feel the need to get root. Thanks a lot for your quick help.
No problem.
If you want to root it, do it with Magisk.
Nowadays, LineageOS team recommend it.
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

finished. total time: 0.005s
Any help?
