Problems trying to flash "motoboot.img"

I'm trying to take my phone back to as stock as possible. Using the requested official firmware pack from Motorola when trying to flash motoboot.img through fastboot it fails everytime saying (bootloader) has-slo:motoboot: not found... error: cannot load "motoboot.img" . Also, when trying to relock my bootloader after typing fastboot oem lock begin it says (bootloader) Please fully flash the signed build before locking phone!
I'm assuming that since motoboot.img isn't flashing that's why it says please fully flash the signed build, because everything else is flashed properly. The phone boots fine and all I'd just like to get rid of the bootloader unlocked screen and have it stock.
Because there is no "motoboot.img" in the zip, only "boot.img" and "bootloader.img".
Ah true, but the command to lock the bootloader still says "Please fully flash the signed build before locking phone!" Any ideas?
"OEM lock begin" says that. You just proceed. The phone is locked at the end with "OEM lock" command.
Lol... OK. so I started over with the fastboot commands using "fastboot oem lock begin" before flashing the rest of the items from the Moto firmware zip. When I get to the system.img I get (bootloader) Invalid signed image and (bootloader) Preflash validation failed.
This phone is ridiculous, back to the nexus 5x... this thing can sit in a drawer and rot
When this happened to me, I just restored via TWRP the stock image backup and flashed stock recovery via fastboot. After that you can flash the same rom via fastboot and lock it but where's the point to lock it anyway? Motorola knows that you unlocked it. And no, the phone is not ridiculous and imho much better than N5x. [emoji4]

XT1700 Fastboot oem unlock fails

I seem to have lost the ability to unlock the bootloader of my XT1700. I previously had unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP and SuperSU, which took a while to figure out, but it worked. Today I tried to install a newer version of the stock firmware using SP flash tool (from here), which seemed to work fine, except now I find I am unable to reinstalled TWRP or SuperSU because I cannot unlock the boot loader.
When the phone boots, I still see the "device unlocked" message, and I have enabled oem unlocking and USB debugging in the developer options menu, however when I go into fastboot mode, if I run the "fastboot oem unlock" command, when the phone prompts me to press up or down, I get an "unlocking failed" error, and Fastboot reports "Unlock operation is not allowed"
Any ideas on how I can unlock this device again?
So it seems like those firmware images must have locked boot loaders. I ended up installing an xt1706 firmware instead (from here) and was able to unlock the boot loader successfully.
Anyone know where to get xt1700 stock firmwares with unlocked boot loader?

Just try to flash with older stock firmware using SP Flash Tool.
I had a similar problem and the older firmware gave it up unlock bootloader without any problem.
When unlocking with fastboot keep the order:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot format userdata
Please change name of twrp-3xx....img to twrp.img

Following a blankflash, you can only boot into the bootloader, which is normal. It seems that using a blankflash sets your bootloader to be locked, regardless of if it was previously unlocked in the first place. Provided you can flash a stock ROM, your bootloader should become unlocked again.
Have you tried flashing the April 2018 fastboot stock ROM from https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 ? The guide there should be useful in how to reflash stock firmware to your device, and as it's the newest firmware that has been leaked, should rescue your device.
If you want to keep your bootloader unlocked and try to save your data, then try the following flashing commands instead of the ones in the guide. Be aware that you may have to factory reset your device should it boot but be unstable.
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
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
These commands should flash the April 2018 GPT, bootloader, system and modem to your device. Please try to avoid hardbricks in the future by only flashing stock firmware as new or newer than your bootloader, and please do not use old OTA updates.

Thank you so much, I've restored the stock rom following your guidelines, my phone is working fine but im not able to install any OTA updates after that. Should i just skip any OTA updates from now on, please advice. Thank you.

If you flashed the April 2018 security patch stock firmware, there are currently no OTA updates, the April 2018 security patch is the latest available.
If you fully flashed the latest firmware as I mentioned, you should be okay to use OTA updates. Just in future please remember to not use OTA updates if you downgraded your device by flashing old stock firmware.

Without a blankflash new enough to flash to the device, I don't think so. You'd have to consider a JTAG repair, a motherboard replacement or buy a new device.

(Solved) Please!!! XT1680 Bootloader locked: BOOT UP FAILED

To summarize, I have a Moto G5 Plus, with locked bootloader and I decided to update a ROM STOCK and made a simple mistake by forgetting the OEM unlock option in advance in the configuration menu. An error occurred on the way and tried to return to the stock. Now, when the phone boots up, it enters the boot loader (which is locked) and displays a startup error message that states that you must use the Software Repair Wizard.
trying to enter the recovery gives a code:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode [Secure]
Fastboot Reason: UTAG "bootmode" configured as fastboot
failed to validate boot image
ERROR: Failed to pass validation, backup to fastboot
Boot up failed
Is there a known solution or force a recovery to work?
Thanks to all
Hello;
I found the solution, download the latest firmware from your cell phone, download it just unzip the zip and look for the files: gpt.bin and bootloader.img, those 2 ctrl + c and files go to the folder where they downloaded ADB tools and paste the files there , then execute the steps to open command window here and execute the following:
fastboot flash partitiongpt.bin
fastboot bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and it is ready to install the downloaded rom.
Gracias a AndresBRS https://www.clangsm.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=466891
