Need help... Bricked my phone... - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was flashing many different ROMs in attempt to find a solution to something I was trying to accomplish. In the end, I gave up and decided to go back to stock. I used this instruction to revert back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/pure-firmware-tuff-wip-t3224833
I followed the instruction under Android 6.0, MPH24.49-18-3 FIRMWARE that said to do:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
I remember when flashing system, there was an invalid sparse header message, but it kept going, so I let it. After that I rebooted bootloader and flashed TWRP again. I then rebooted bootloader once more and entered TWRP. There, I proceeded normally. But then I realized that there was something wrong when I couldn't do the full wipe. I went to look in the mount setting and saw that TWRP was not able to mount internal. The internal was also listed as 0MB. I'm guessing that I need to re-partition/format the internal (or I don't know what I'm talking about lol). Either way, I'm now unable to flash a ROM. Can someone please help me?
Thank you in advance.

try http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/windows-tool-moto-x-style-pure-edition-t3199905
then flash android 6.0 maybe trupure 2.9 and then get the modem from trupure and flash it

Find 18-4 firmware, it's newer anyway... the sparse chunk size error is the problem, the system.img file in that firmware file is too large for the phone to flash via fastboot (thus, it probably isn't an official image, or it's an image for the engineering flash tool, not fastboot). The proper image file with have 6-11 sparce chunks you need to flash individually.

I think i made it worse lol... Because I was getting many errors (random reboots), I decided to do a full wipe to install a ROM fresh. When wiping in TWRP, I accidentally wiped "internal" too. I'm guessing that I need to do something to correct this before I can flash 18-4 firmware. Please let me know if you know what I need to do. Thank you.

TWRP shouldn't be a part of this, nor should it matter whats on your internal storage, this is all done with fastboot.
Factory reset in stock recovery, reboot to bootloader, then flash the complete image with fastboot.

The instruction in that post said to not worry about the sparse error message, so I went with it. This is what the post said.
"You may notice a "sparse header error" when flashing at the beginning. Don't worry about it, all is well. The current AutoFlashFirmware.bat file doesn't work with this Firmware file. Flash the files manually!"
Also, i posted above too, but I just accidentally wiped internal via TWRP too. Do you know what I need to do now in order to get my phone back? I've found solutions for other phones regarding this situation, but I haven't come across one for Moto X Pure. This is what happens when you work on your phone all day long and some more into late night lol...

Could you please tell me if you think that's what I should flash?
Also, if you don't mind, will you please share exact fastboot commands/process? I just don't want to make any more mistakes and make things worse. I apologize for being needy.

Thank you very much for that. You mentioned that I would need to factory reset in stock recovery first. Do I just fastboot flash a stock recovery from the firmware zip file from 18-4, boot into its recovery, reset, and then follow the instruction above?

Boot, flash, whatever... It is best to do a factory reset in the default recovery first, but it isn't essential.

I presume that you MAY NOT have to flash whole rom, if you 'JUST' flashed the needed version of recovery then you can upgrade with a OTA zip (can't test as only got xt1068) maybe someone can test this - but obviously some OTA's rely on being updated in order.
This is for XT1063 Only!

Bootloader can easily be locked. I've done it & even made a one click to do it as well. However I was able to update to 5.0 without the bootloader being locked. I'm back on KitKat for the third time. I'm not willing to give up root & deal with all the bugs of L.
There is also a custom ROM in these forms that run smoother than the stock & easier to install but still has the root bug.

What model do you have?
I can assure you I am not new at this, I bought my phone from Amazon with 21.11.23 and there was an addition added at some point that prevents a downgrade and in turn does not allow the system to be flashed with a locked or unlocked bootloader if you start with the command Fastboot oem lock begin.
if you have an XT1063 please tell me how you locked your bootloader without modifying anything that will then be unreversable.
Don't take it the wrong way, but I have seen people create tools that edit the hex to show bootloader locked then they can no longer unlock it or corrupt the phone and brick.

ETA: I'm not going to get upset over anything in a forum. I just post info to the best of my knowledge in hope to be helpful to someone else. Sometimes that changes as more knowledge is gained.
I have a xt1063 .17 & I did use "fastboot oem lock begin" I don't remember every command but the one click also restored the stock firmware at the same time. I'll have to look at my files in a few. I only made about 20 one clicks & was writing & rewriting a how to guide all at the same time as I was trying to figure it out & get on 5.0 all at the same time. Like I said tho my bootloader is unlocked again & it doesn't seem to affect the ability to flash OTA.

I never said anything about needing to relock it. I just said I have not been able to for those of us that want 5.0.1 and want to lock the bootloader. If you are able to price steps on how you downgraded from 5.0 and locked the boot loader I sure would want to try it myself.
Ideally I would add in the commands above fastboot OEM lock begin and fastboot OEM unlock for those who want a relocked boot loader before flashing the otas. Its just not possible if you are not on 21.11.17 to begin with because of the signed zip downgrade verification

Stating that it didn't need locked to flash 5.0 is just added info for anyone fallowing the thread & based on my experience. That may change for flashing 5.0.1.
These commands was ran from a modified 21.11.17 build to lock the bootloader. I thought I read ether in this thread or another thread that you already found a way to flash back to the stock firmware 21.11.17 without the downgrade error. If your on stock 21.11.17 now then you could give the lock command a try from mfastboot. I restored a Nandroid to get back to KitKat from Lollipop.
The one click I made was for those that had tampered with their stock 21.11.17 & wanted to be back to stock & locked. I didn't even know there was a 21.11.23 build at the time.

Please hit the thanks if it worked and report back. This should help all those stuck on 22.11.6. Please make sure you go all the way back to 21.11.17 first before reporting back.

You will get updates. You can Root, however I do not think there is a stable root yet. If you unlock your boot loader it will format, if you already unlocked your boot loader then you will not loose your data.

Keep in mind depending on the region you're flashing you may have a different number of sparse chunks (I think VZW has like 16, where as stock has like 13) You just enter the amount of sparse chunks you need to flash.

I would just root yourself then. I couldn't get systemless root to work with the current TWRP available so I just flashed a forced System ROOT instead.

Download from there and flash it in TWRP. But say goodbye to Android pay obviously
:/ Ok; try as I might I cannot seem to get my Moto Z to boot if I have SuperSU installed. My bootloader is unlocked, and I've been able to flash different ROMS with no problem. But if I try to install SuperSU (v2.78-SR1) to a working ROM, or install JanJan's pre-rooted US ROM, then Android simply never boots. I just downloaded the three more recent versions of SuperSU to give them a try, but does anyone have any suggestions of what I might be doing wrong here?

Sounds to me like you need a different Boot image then. I flashed the boot.img that was disabled force encryption, then flashed the System mode SuperSU. No issues at all. US Moto Z 64 GB model.

Any Wifi and data fixes on xt1625

I have a second Moto G4 and I was curious if anyone got a fix for these issues? it happened a while back when I was trying to go back to factory image. there was a lot of errors. I cant seem ti find the screenshots of the errors that I got at the time. This was around January or so.There is no Mac Address in settings and theres no ip no way to turn data on and when I try wifi. it automatically shuts off. Doesn't detect my Sim Card or Service. says Emergency calls only
I have the same problem, I have got the sim working but no wifi or bluetooth yet.
When I load adb shell and grep the wireless module it says "WCNSS DRIVER NOT FOUND" even though it is there.
I found fix. Delete the old os completely and have the right stock os ready to adb flash. Id say google ATHENE_MPJ24.139-49_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml .. then put it in your minimal adb and fastboot file. go to bootloader and then back to computer to do the shift right click in the file on pc and get terminal up and copy and paste this

What are the proper steps to completely remove your entire OS safely? Do you mean to just overwrite the current one?
This procedure overwrites your current or completely. You will lose the contents of the internal SD card

Save what you want and it should be safe to just completely wipe your phone cache and all no overwrite.. Then have the stock ready to flash in the file on computer and do the the above steps. Ive done it on both my moto g4's because on my main one which I'm sending off to Motorola for screen repairs, I wiped my phone without thinking about the stock os. panicked but remembered the back to stock steps and attempted them. Ive always gotten errors or wifi and data wipe from over writing with the codes. So I just flashed on the one I deleted OS off of and it worked.

Yeah sadly you will lose everything unless you have it all saved. I was mad about losing a lot of things but I was having screen issues and data wifi issues to try to fix. I do have data and wifi now. I just wish I saved what I could.
Would the android data recovery program recover anything? Ive been searching how to recover wiped data. Internet is full of info on how wiped data can be recovered. I just want the text messages and stuff. I had important things in some the text messages I lost
You should save to the external SD card.

Delete the old OS via twrp?
You should have made a backup with twrp. Then you could restore your os as it was.

Nope the firmware linked above caused the phone to go in to a boot loop.

you can;t flash any of the official firmwares via TWRP. You can flash a custom rom or restore a backup of your OS though.
to flash/reload an official firmware, you need ADB and fastboot running from a computer.
Exactly. Don't try with TWRP.

If you want to avoid wiping your data whilst flashing the fastboot stock ROM, you can omit the 'fastboot erase userdata' command and you do not have to re-lock your bootloader (re-locking will wipe your data).
However, if you are experiencing instabilities as you mentioned, a data wipe is a useful troubleshooting step, and may help you determine if your data is corrupted or whether you may have a more serious hardware/firmware issue.

Okay, as your bootloader is locked, there's no need for the OEM lock commands. Using them, regardless of if your bootloader is locked or not, will erase your data.
Those commands look okay, just ensure in your flashing script that you have that erase userdata command removed (not just struck out). Your command list a look like:
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin

If this flash doesn't get your device going, you may have to wipe your data or consider a service repair as a locked bootloader gives us limited options for rescue.

If this flash doesn't get your device going, you may have to wipe your data or consider a service repair as a locked bootloader gives us limited options for rescue.

Okay so I have flash the phone using above commands, but no luck, exact same issue is persists and even nothing has been changed on the phone, not even lock screen wallpaper.
So now do you have any more suggestion please let me know if not will proceed with Data Wipe. Also Even if I wipe user data and after that can I recover files using some Andrioid File Recovery Tools out there.
Waiting for your reply and will proceed as you will suggest. Thanks.

That's not good, if a flash doesn't fix things.
1)Try to wipe your data via a factory reset. I think you can try to keep your internal storage by selecting to only wipe userdata in the stock recovery (boot to recovery, hold the power key then press the volume up key to get past the 'No Command screen', then under wipe data/factory reset, there should be an option to wipe userdata only). Then wipe cache/Dalvik in that same menu, and see if your device boots. I do not know if file recovery tools will work on non-rooted devices (due to restrictions on reading the data partition).
2)If that doesn't work, your device may have a serious hardware fault that only a service centre can resolve.

Okay so seems like am in serious trouble.
1) Done wipe data (user data only) with no luck.
2) Done wipe data with userdata and personalized content, still...
3) Flash stock ROM along with "Fastboot Erase userdata", but no joy.
Should I unlock the bootloader now and try to install TWRP and from there if I can go some where
And now I have kept the phone on Welcome Screen, its not getting rebooted, Am able to go till Select WIFI, even am able to connect to WIFI. Then on next screen it is asking me to "Accept Moto T&C", after that it will show me Checking Connectivity > Checking For Update > Checking Info.......and this is the point where it get restarted. Can you guess what is the issue, seems like its some network or connectivity hardware issue.

You'd only be able to unlock your bootloader if you enabled OEM unlocking in Settings>Developer Options, and you can only get to Developer Options if you can properly boot into the system (as a security measure)....
Hmm, if it's holding on the Setup Assistant now, can you use mobile data to set up instead of Wi-Fi? If it is an issue with the Wi-Fi, maybe using the mobile signal could get around that.

Okay so after one-month of stupidity from service center and some other guys finally I myself resolved the issue.
1) Service center tried to flash the rom but didn't resolved the issue.
2) They changed the battery, but still the same issue.
3) They said that this is motherboard issue and it will cost 5200 INR.
Then gave my phone on yaantra .com to repair it they kept the phone for 5 days and said the same thing that it is a motherboard issue as network circuit is not working properly.
( In between this I end up buying OnePlus 6 :victory: :victory: )
Then I bought one new damaged phone in which motherboard was working fine. I replaced that motherboard with mine and still the same issue. After this I started disconnecting parts one by one which are there on display pannel. After checking speaker, vibrator, flash, when I disconnected the fingerprint sensor and rebooted the phone it was totally fine and no more reboots.
I never thought that a corrupted/damaged fingerprint scanner can do this kind of wired issue to a phone. .Now this will be a spare phone without fingerprint scanner. Thanks for your help @echo92

[Getting Error while installing OTA]

I received an update Oreo, when I tried to install it failed and displayed a message "Error" and restarted. Help me to update my mobile to latest version. I cleared cache partition, still no luck.
I have unlocked bootloader and on latest stock ROM.
Screenshot attached !!!

Flash the complete stock rom using fastboot and lock the bootloader and then update the device through OTA.

Facing the exact same issue here.I think the latest stock oreo needs locked bootloader to flash
No need to relock the bootloader, but you must revert back to unmodified stock firmware on your device before updating. Without seeing what error it is, it's difficult to say. A locked bootloader strictly enforces having the unmodified stock furnace, which is why an OTA update is more likely to work.
Try this:
1) download the NPJS25.93-14-18 firmware from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
Only use this if you have not updated to Oreo and you are still on NPJS25.93-14-18.
2)unzip the fastboot ROM, delete any old stock ROMs from your ADB folder and copy the stock ROM over.
3) assuming you had NPJS25.93-14-18 already on your device, flash the firmware with the following instructions - no need for the GPT/bootloader. Ensure you have your data backed up, as you may have to factory reset if you encounter instability.
Code:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash oem oem.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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
That should get your device into an OTA friendly state without erasing your data. If that doesn't work, I suggest waiting for the Oreo fastboot ROM.
I've custom Oreo installed on my phone. Which firmware package should I install?

At the moment, we only have the stock Nougat firmware to revert to - Oreo firmware doesn't seem to be out yet. However, flashing stock Nougat over custom Oreo may appear to come with some risk of losing IMEI, so be careful. You could try the TWRP flashables, be aware the stock ROM is only 32 bit.
