Hello,
The first day I got my moto x style (XT1572) I started to root, everything was more or less well until I tried to install the SU when I finished installing the binary from the TWRP custom recovery-3.0.2-0- clark you say yes to install the root since the phone would not start and remains in boot loop.
After much look I followed some tutorial XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/help/brick-downgrade-6-0-to-5-1-heeeeelp-t3253716) to return to flash the phone with the rom that theory came from factory cbox1s_XT1572_CLARK_RETEU_6.0_MPHS24.49-18-3_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml after following all the steps mobile and well lit and seems it was all sorted.
Well, I went back to the load to make root and remove the message that the bootloader was unlocked this time all fu well, except now every time I reboot I enter into fastboot mode and have to select START to boot normal to me.
Any ideas or suggestions to fix it?
regards,
PD: Sorry for my google translate english i'am spanish a my english level is very bad :crying:
SOLVED, the problem was the BP Tools in the fastboot, i had "Fastboot Reason: UTAG "bootmode" configured as fastboot" i changed to "Normal Powerup" and all perfect

What? how do you do it? can you tell me how to do it more specific? I'm new so I don't understand what you mean and how you do it :/
thank you.
Moto devices have a flashing mode called "fb_mode" that when enabled causes the bootloader to start on each boot, it is used for flashing stock firmware images since in some cases the device needs to reboot after flashing a certain partition or image and it needs a way to return to the fastboot mode. Remember when flashing a stock image you may have entered "fastboot oem fb_mode_set"? If not then a toolkit or other flashing tool may have done it but not cleared it correctly. To clear it manually you need to literally clear it with a fastboot command... With the phone in the bootloader, enter this command from your computer"
fasboot oem fb_mode_clear
And reboot, it should no longer go to the bootloader unless you are holding VOL DN and the operating system should start normally.

Yea I do need help, I had flashed a custom rom with twrp recovery on my phone but every time I reboot I either loads into recovery or boot loader if I fb mode clear or not. Even if theirs a system to boot, I have to manually boot into through boot loader and start. If I go to bootloader logs it just says reboot mode set to fastboot.
typo - fastboot, not fasboot

There is no problem... The Moto X does not have A/B software slots, the messages above are merely informational and completely normal.
With mfastboot there is no messages like this. Only "OKAY" one
However it didn't help with my Moto G (falcon).
What helped was checking the kernel. My "smartness" told me to flash Nouagt when I had Pie rom...

Hey there,
To make it short, the phone was rooted, bootloader unlocked, and it was on Resurrection Remix (don't know which one, it was Nougat 7.1.2).
I tried to restore it back to stock, lock the bootloader etc (following this guide : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...de-return-to-stock-relock-bootloader-t3489110 which has files for xt1572 too ).
During the process, I got the error that a lot of people get about the Preflash validation error and yet i went through, except that I still locked at the end (I did not notice the Note about it below the command lines, I so regret it).
I also flashed the original Motorola logo (instead of "Bootloader is unlocked"), but I don't think this has anything to do with the fact that it got bricked (I can be wrong though).
Now, I can't access the phone through the cable. adb devices (with killing and restarting server) doesn't detect anything, I'm just stuck on the big Motorola logo splash screen.
Anyone has any idea on any possible way to unbrick it ? (I heard about qualcomm hsusb something but I'm just not sure where it can lead)
Thanks !
@pef6000
Bootloader is locked? What is status code...?
can't you use fastboot (from device turned off hold power + vol down) and flash stock motorola rom?
Hey there, thanks for your answers.
I can't access bootloader nor fastboot. adb doesn't show any device anymore.
I cannot even turn on or off the phone. It just reboots even if I long-press the power button. It just boots back up, and I can only leave it like this until battery is depleted.
Hold power, when screen turn off hold only vol-. It should go to bootloader.
Check and post here BL status. @pef6000
---------- Post added at 11:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------
Btw, if you will go to bootloader mode(locked) - you can only flash again stock 6.0.1(newest).
Without bootloader and gpt.
Check how many sparsechunks you have in zip file, I think from 0 to 11.
Sorry for being late. I tried that yesterday, but one problem after another, Windows died
I'll pass some time on it whenever I get the computer working.
I tried starting in BL and it worked !
I think the fact that it wasn't working before was due to the phone bootlooping directly on splash screen (maybe, I don't know).
Here, battery was dead since I couldn't turn it off. So I plugged the phone in while keeping vol- pressed, and it booted immediately in.
Couldn't get a hold of the status code though, the computer rebooted and crashed, so I had something else in mind, sorry :/
Anyway, I'll do that whenever I can, thanks for your help !
Here again. I accessed bootloader and I get :
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)
[…]
Console [NULL]: null
Battery OK (charging)
Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3
Software status: Modified
Before this problem, when I tried to flash everything, I have parsechunks from 0 to 8, not 11.
Now, I don't really know what to do. Should I do everything back again with a 6.0.1 zip ?

Yes.
Without bootloader, gpt and Don't lock BootLoader.
Hey.
I did it, didn't lock bootloader, didn't flash bootloader.img nor gpt.bin, but it still freezes on the splash screen logo. I suppose it woudn't take as much as 15 to 30 minutes to switch from that splash screen to any other screen.
The bootloader is still accessible, and I still have the same things (unlocked, status 3, etc).
Am I doing something wrong ? :/
What is your model and what rom are you flashing?
What do you have on pc after: "fastboot getvar all"? @pef6000
It's a XT1572, European (got it in France).
I'm trying to flash the one for XT1572 in the link with the instructions : https://dl.prazaar.de/?dir=Android/XT1572/Factory/6.0.1/MPHS24.107-58-5_September_2016

Yes, I did all of this, everything turns out ok except one error (the Preflash Validation).
Now that I read it again, the post says it happens on gpt.bin, except I didn't flash it as you said.
I just did it again and I get it again at this step :

EDIT :
Btw, the bootloader log on the phone says "Image is too large" after the "cmd: flash:modem" line.

You should edit your post and remove the IMEI number...
Is it possible your last stock system was 6.0?
Download and try to flash reteu 24.49-18-4, still without BL, gpt, oem.
(I don't know how many sparsechunks there is, check it).

on MPHS24.49-18-4... I would suggest using the same version or XT1572_CLARK_RETEU_6.0_MPHS24.49-18-8_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip and NOT 6.0.1. The 6.0.1 versions were only for certain variants, and I do not know if the RETFR ones had that.
And don't skip the bootloader or gpt UNLESS they actually fail... It is best to do it like this:
Also, if possible boot into the factory recovery and perform a full factory reset before beginning.
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.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.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8 [Verify number of sparse chunks and make sure you are doing the correct #]
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin [May need to be done more 2 or 3 times to "take", make sure it returns an "OKAY"]
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
My 2 cents worth... hope it helps.
@acejavelin Oh damn, thank you. I thought I checked correctly but I didn't notice the IMEI in there.
Thank you both for your help. Phone booted up on original rom, I'm happy
I'll mark this post as Solved, but I have a quick question : Can I use the XT1575 logo.bin found here :https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...o-remove-unlocked-bootloader-warning-t3201141
Or is it better not to do so ?
Yes you can.
Or any from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/themes-apps/boot-animation-logo-bin-t3558942 @pef6000
Btw.
You flashed ...18-8 or 18-4? Maybe someone will need it in future.

Sorry for the late answer, I flashed the 18-8 in the end.

Hi Guys,
So Tuesday morning woke up to my phone cycling through the "M - powered by android" screen. Have absolutely no idea why, though previous to placing it on the charger it had gotten down to 4% battery and I switched it off.
Anyway I have tried during the week to resuscitate the phone with many different methods posted here but still can not get it past the M logo loop
History of phone is:
March: 64GB model arrives with 6.0 reinstalled
Unlocked and Rooted the phone in March and installed TWRP
Made own recovery/backup in July - can't rember why but it seemed like a great idea at the time
At end of September Flashed phone to 7.0 - no problems there
Running fine until
Tuesday morning 1/11 from nowhere bootloop from hell hits
So in past 4 days I've tried in order (and some repeatedly):
Turning off, switching back on
Turning off, leave phone for an hour, switching back on
Turning off overnight > switching on
wiping caches
Wiping caches from cold start
draining completely flat > complete charge > wipe data from cold start > boot Still boot loop
Quickboot menu booting into recovery > TWRP > tried recovery (went fine but still bootloop)
Quickboot menu booting into recovery > TWRP > tried flashing 7.0 again (also went fine still bootloop)
Quickboot menu booting into recovery > TWRP > tried flashing 6.0 stock (also went fine still bootloop)
From quickboot menu tried RSD Lite stock flash - (failed at 3/29 gpt.bin)
From quickboot menu manually tried flashing 6.0 stock EU rom (as per instructions here using mfastboot and cmd window in windows 8 64 bit - flashed ok but still boot loop)
From quickboot menu manually tried flashing 6.0 stock MX rom
From Quickboot menu Manually tried flashing EU and MX 6.0 stock roms including the recovery command line (so now I don't have TWRP on the phone, though I am sure it will flash back easy enough).
After reading countless threads, I really thought by the time a manual flashing stock the phone would be working by now. Have I missed something obvious? Is there something else I should do? It seems stuck somewhere just before it boots - like if the boot partition in windows looses its boot flag.
Any ideas as to what to do next appreciated

Ok so I've been doing some more flashing - the flash process works fine no errors. I've put TWRP back on and it works fine when accessed via fastmoot menu then into recovery.
Frustratingly despite all recoveries flashing fine (logo's updating correctly as per version etc) it will not get past boot. Makes me think this phone is headed for the bin.
Is there a way to test the pre-boot memory or a tool to see what is going on at that stage of the boot process? perhaps a tool to check the hardware is working properly?
Cheers again

Check my last 20-30 post, in one of them you'll find possible solution.
I've had similar problem - it's faulty file system on one of the partitions, exactly few first bytes which for some reason can't get formated, factory flash doesn't fix it either.
All you need to do is fill up partition which zeroes.
Hi TeddyBeers,
Thank you for your response.
been through the last 20-30 odd posts. Is this the instructions in the post you are referring to?
" In most cases it's MISC partition.
To fix it need to run this command from adb
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/misc
or just through TWRP ->Advanced -> Terminal Emulator
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/misc
If this doesn't help (like in my case) than overwrite system and data partition - THIS WILL DELETE ROM AND ALL DATA
For system partition
ADB
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/system
TWRP ->Advanced -> Terminal Emulator
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/system
For data partition
ADB
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/data
TWRP ->Advanced -> Terminal Emulator
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/data"
After zeroing all these partitions, which instruction do you recommend flashing with - ie mfastboot, Sideload, reflash TWRP and then install?
Cheers
Val
So a brief update - Tried the flashing zeros as per Teddybeers suggestion using terminal in TWRP. Still same result, phone is responsive to flashing from fastboot (and twrp after reinstalling TWRP) but phone will not get past the boot logo before re-starting and repeating
My thoughts (and googling) is leading me to think blank-flashing the phone is the only way to go.
The only guide I have been able to find suggests RSDlite. As I can't see the phone using RSDlite, is there a way to blank flash from fastboot mode? Or TWRP?
Cheers as always
Restore System Backup after flashing ROM&Magisk followed by encryption password error
Hi there,
I recently unlocked my phones bootloader, flashed latest TWRP(-oce) and then installed AICP 14 ROM (Android 9.0) + GApps + Magisk 18 (in one rush). Unfortunately now I ended up with the data partition encryption message asking for a password (both System and TWRP), which was never set (HTC default password?). Therefore I cannot access the ZIPs to flash a ROM through TWRP. I could use fastboot but I do not have any system.img. The TWRP backup, that I saved of my Stock System also cannot be accessed it seems due to the encryption.
Does anyone have any advice? The TWRP FAQ suggests restoring the backup but how do I access it?
Thank you in advance!
Edit: I copied the TWRP Backup from my PC to a MicroSD Card, from which I could restore the backup (boot+system, didn't restore data). System seems to work now. Is there anything I should still do?

I think there was a thread somewhere here on xda regarding this problem, you should definitely format your data partition before switching to custom roms. It could be that there was a reboot in between sometime, but i'm not quite sure about that, sorry.
But remember you will loose all your data on your phone anyway
If you click ok directly on the twrp prompt for password you should be able to get to the menu. From there format your data and you should be able to install properly the zip files and boot the rom.
Hello guys,
I need help. Definitely
My phone stopped booting into system after some service.
First a little brief:
Phone never showed any problems before.
LCD+Touch were replaced.
Phone stopped booting into system.
Stills boots/ works perfectly in fastboot, recovery and userdebug.
Tried:
factory reset
unlocking and relocking bootloader
flashing several factory and stock RAWs
stock recovery and TWRP
stock raw alone
update stock system from stock raw
twrp + stock rom + magisk
twrp + lineageos + magisk
several guides on this forum
Nothing works. Problem remains the same, doesn’t matter the alternative I try.
Now the whole story:
I’ve had this phone for a while. Always did the OTA updates. Never had problems… at all.
Some days ago, I dropped it and was finally able to break the screen. The lcd became black in some spots and had different brightness in others. Touch kind of worked, kind of got crazy after some seconds (and I had to turn the screen off and on again).
I’ve got some experience in repairing electronics and phones. So, I watched/read a dozen guides about this particular service, bought an original LCD+Touch kit, and replaced myself.
No apparent problems with that. The process is quite simple and straight forward. (I knew what I was doing. But if you tell me something might be wrong with that, I will look into it. I will take any help. Just tell me what to do.)
And so it begins.
I set my phone up again - without gluing anything, as it was the first test – and turn it on. It seems to boot normally… boot logo shows normally… boot animation seems to take longer than usual… the screen suddenly goes black.
I open the whole thing again, check every connector, everything is ok.
I try to turn it on again, now the phone turns off after just one or two seconds of boot animation.
I did then a factory reset, problem persisted just the same.
I thought to myself: “ok, then. System must be somehow corrupted.”
I updated the system to the lasted version in ASUS website trough adb sideload. Problem persisted.
“ok, maybe I must clear the system partition then… let’s go a little further”.
I read some guides, and proceeded to unlock the bootloader (flash factory raw, fastboot commands, flash oreo raw), flash TWRP and LineageOS.
When I turn it on again, a bit of hope. Boot animation takes, again, a long time. An “encrypting device” screen comes up and I believe it’s finally over. But no. The phone goes off after about 10 seconds of supposed encrypting and, when I turn it on again, same as before… two seconds of boot animation and then darkness.
After that I Just went deeper into the habbit hole.
Tried several brick fixes in sent by the XDA community.
Tried flashing RAWs using Asus Flash Tool (v1.0.0.86 (20201124)) and flashall_AFT.cmd (that comes inside de RAWs.
Tried all combination and orders I could imagine of the following RAWs:
CSC_ZE552KL_13.1301.1603.53_WW_Lock_20171128
CSC_ZE552KL_13_13_1_36_M2_6_7_P7_userdebug
WW_ZE552KL_13.20.10.137_M3.10.35_Phone-user.raw
WW_ZE552KL_14.2020.1703.28_M3.10.47.3_Phone-user.raw
WW_ZE552KL_15.0410.1712.31_M3.10.47.16_Phone-user.raw
WW_ZE552KL_15.0410.1807.75_M3.10.47.19_Phone-user.raw
It doesn’t matter. Whenever I flash a RAW, the phone goes to this encrypting process and then goes black. From there on, I can flash anything through adb sideload, fastboot or twrp…. It shows the boot logo, (possibly shows the dm-verity screen, depending on the set up), and goes off after about 2 seconds of boot animation.
Tested everything I could with TWRP: LCD, Touch, mounting partitions and storage seem to be working fine.
Tested everything I could with the factory RAW userdebug (using command fastboot oem enable-userdebug boots a very simple system (there’s an image below)): Again, LCD and touch work fine. Also, hard keys, wifi, Bluetooth, calling, messaging, 4G and both speakers are working.
And there we get to present time. I just don’t know what else I can do.
My next steps would be going into QFIL flashing. That would actually be new to me. But since I can use all these functions properly, it doesn’t seem to me that that’s the way to go.
Please help. I will take anything. Tell what I may have passed by. Send me the guides you think may help me, even if I’ve already tried.
I can give you any information you guys believe is pertinent.
I will start leaving here some info I think may help:
