Hello people, I come with a Moto X XT1572 brickeado, out of nowhere is stuck in the Motorola logo and it does not pass from there, restarting over and over again.
I tried several methods to try to install a stock Firm, 6.0 or 6.1, but without success.
Because I can only connect it in fastboot mode and RSD Lite does not recognize it, I followed the tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njXQYn53SPc
Whatever Firm it is, I throw the following error:
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
(Bootloader) has-slot: boot: not found
Target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
Sending 'boot' (40960 KB) ...
OKAY
Writing 'boot' ...
(Bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
Finished. Total time: 2
I understand and I have read, the problem is initially in the boot, I have tried flashing only the boot, but it does not respond, throwing the same error.
It is worth clarifying that the bootloader is blocked, and if I try to unlock it it throws me:
(Bootloader) Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Developer Options.
FAILED (remote failure)
Finished. Total time: 0.00s
I can not check that option, since it does not fix je.
Also it is worth clarifying that it does not allow me to enter the recovery, when it enters that option it is automatically restarted returning to the motorola logo again and again.
Do you have any idea what else to try? Thank you in advance.

Have you tried a factory reset in the stock recovery? From the bootloader select Recovery and let it start, when you get "Dead Andy" with an exclamation mark after the timeout, hold power and tap Vol Up and release both keys. Select Factory reset/Wipe data and let finish and then reboot... First boot can take 20 minutes plus after a reset.

Selecting Recovery restarts the device, returning to the Motorola logo and restarting again and again, without ever entering the recovery mode.

In the bootloader, can you post the output of 'fastboot getvar all' (just mask out your IMEI number)?

Stock firmware images are digitally signed, so yes, you can flash them with a locked bootloader., but downgrading is tricky even with an unlocked bootloader. The key here us to just get it bootable.

Do they? I'm sure they do... and if you send it in for repair I am sure they can fix it, but they won't give it to you if that is what you are asking. :/
If you are in warranty and u haven't unlocked your boot loader yet you can give silly reason's like i revived updates last night but battery was low and while updating it turned off and now my phone isn't booting up

Hello, finally I take the equipment to an official technical service of Motorola, where they told me that they could not repair it since the cell phone did not take Software. Is this possible or would it be that the technical service did not have the necessary software version?

Good afternoon, I return the subject after a long time since yesterday I thought to try again, and I found that the cell now turns on, but when trying to complete the initial configuration, after choosing the language gives me to select the wifi networks, where it does not detect any, and I do not enable the jump or forward button, and I'm stuck there again, it's very strange, as soon as I enter that screen, it gives me the option to add a new network, and I can see that says Mac Address with pure zeros, as if it did not have MAC.
If I try to enter the recovery, now I see "No Command" (previously not directly entered), and there is no way to skip this "No Command", I have tried all the methods that appear online.
EDIT: I was able to get into recovery, but I do not know if it can help me now.
Any ideas? he seems to be brigado, but not as much as before
Flash the right modem for your region in fastboot. You should repeat the fastboot command "fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin" at least two times because the first time it won't "stick". After you'll have to execute "fastboot erase modemst1" and "fastboot erase modemst2" commands and your wi-fi and data signal should return.

I still have a problem, when the device is turned on, it always turns on Bootloader mode, and I have to select "Start" to turn it on. This is why when you want to upgrade to Android 7 via OTA, when the device is restarted during installation, it enters Bootloader mode, select "Start", restarts the update, restarts in Bootloader, and remains in an infinite cycle.
Is there a solution to this? I have already activated USB debugging in order to unlock the Bootloader.
Thank you!!
Hello,
I have bricked my bootloader in the past to refresh my bootloader. I have unbricked my phone to bootloader 1.03 with blank flash. Now when i try to flash, erase do ANYTHING it won't allow me because my OEM_LOCKED state. If i try to unlock my bootloader it says:

Did you run all stock steps in order? In particular this one first:
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
That will restore your partition table which seems to be messed up. Make sure you try to restore firmware version that was last working for you.
If your phone is completely wiped and you have no backups of ALL of the partitions, I doubt you can recover as some of the partitions have phone specific data for IMEIs and such.

I too have this question bro .... Plus help me if you find a solution ... I m a newbie... Nd face the same problem as yours
Sounds like fastboot expects a working partition table to start with then.
I would boot into twrp from fastboot (from an image on your PC) and use adb shell to take a look at what the flash looks like (fdisk -l command). You may have to restore the partition table first via sgdisk or dd. I've never done it and I'm no expert on this stuff but Google is your friend. General linux forums are just as helpful as android specific forums as at this level, we aren't even talking about android.
Good luck.

Provide more information of your problem/situation,
what happened ?
Have you flashed any firmware ?
Took any OTA ?
What was firmware version you were using ?
Tried latest December's firmware ? This> https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
I think you're flashing older bootloader & GPT then it is already installed on your device;
take a look here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
from that thread download the latest ROM and firstly flash GPT and boot-loader by following command:
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
but however after flashing the latest firmware the current blankflash that we have won't work, because GPT and boot-loader version is higher.
now after you flashed the GPT and bootloader then flash the whole firmware by following commands:
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
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 erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
Now once you flashed it then you're good to go:good:

What device do you have? I'm guessing it's a Moto X4 from the TWRP name?
Are you on Nougat or Oreo? From looking at this thread, you've got 2 different build: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/development/dev-testing-t3707432
If you are running a X4, you may have better luck over there rather than here on the Moto G4 forums, as there's more users familiar with the A/B partitioning on the Moto X4.
Ohh my bad, I had like 6 xda tabs open, I actually meant to post it there. My bad man, thank you!
got the same problem any luck yet?
Any luck yet? I got a suggestion that the problem could only get fixed flashing the memory of the phone directly with this kind of device... (search for the octopus box, I cant post links yet im new here) but im lost and they say that thing is expensive... I really want my phone to be saved on my computer. My case is exactly the same as you.... oem locked and failed partition everything and remote failure.
SOLVED!! Failed to initialize partition table
..
First of all convert phone to hard brick to Softbrick...
After that if you want to bootup phone than..IT shows bootloader log::
Failed to initialize partition Table
SOLUTION:-
1) Download Minimal ADB Drivers , gpt.bin, Motorola Device driver
For link mail me on [email protected]
2.) Now Install adb and motorola drivers .
3.) Copy gpt.bin file in ADB folder in installed drive.
4.) Open Minimal ADB and Fastboot.exe
Now Run the following command
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot
The cell phone should restart after this if you do not type the last code and enter if still yes it is not just hang up and call to enter the fastboot.
Now YOUR PROBLEM SOLVED

I dont think all is wiped but when i try to flash the gpt.bin it says 'cannot find partition gpt'
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Even I got the same error. Its because adb couldn't find the gpt.bin file in the adb folder from where you had executed the command window.
Copy the gpt.biin file in that folder and try again, that should work.

after the official update from ....update in my device .......my device was struck in boot loop ...so i tries flashing the stock rom to repair that ....during flashing it giving the above mention error ........
Only other things I can think of is perhaps holding down your power button (for up to 2-3 minutes) to force a hard shutdown, and then try booting. Alternatively, hold down both the power and volume down key, see if you can boot into the bootloader (which it looks like you can, if you're trying to fastboot the stock ROM). If so, then try to boot into the stock recovery and try a cache wipe or a factory reset (the factory reset will obviously wipe your data).
If your device is under warranty (and you did not unlock your bootloader at any point), the service centre might be the best bet for you, as we can't do anything with a locked bootloader and you're unable to boot to get to OEM unlocking...

The Rescue and Smart Assistant software isn't working because the IMEI is showing all 0 (zero) here. And it says something is wrong and should go to customer support. Please help me guys. Let me know what should I do now? It is out of warranty as well.
For the image files I am using the same I downloaded via the rescue and smart assistant software.

Within phone's Android -> Settings -> Developer options you have to enable "OEM Unlock" and reboot phone afterwards. Then you have to unlock phone's bootloader
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot reboot

What you basically are doing wrong is NOT to use Motorola's proprietary mfastboot but Google's fastboot.

I generally do not use mfastboot, it has not been updated in years.
but if fastboot.exe fails, it doesn't hurt to try mfastboot.
