Nothing can flash my Moto E xt1022 - Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I have a Moto E First Generation xt1022 (condor),running Cyanogenmod.
About 2 weeks ago,i saw a notification about a CM system update. So i had the BRILLIANT idea to try to update the phone,with a low battery. I pressed the button to install updates and left my phone unattended.
About 3 hours late i come back,find my phone still displaying CM bootanimaion. I held the power button,it showed a low battery indicator,and now i am here.
My phone has an unlocked bootloader. It is able to boot into the bootloader,it's able to boot into the latest version of TWRP recovery,it is recognized by ADB,it's recognized by Fastboot and Mfastboot,and it also recgonized by RSD Lite,but none of them can flash the phone into a working state.
I'm away from my main computer right now. Tomorrow i will post the logs
Is there any hope for this phone?
Is it bricked? I mean,it shouldn't be,i can everything like fastboot and adb...
If you need more info about the phone,tell me.
Help and suggestions are highly appreciated
Thanks! :good:

System has stoppped responding - Please, help, complete newb here

So, I already had some issues with this device and they've been pretty similar, in a way that the problem always starts with random reboots when the power button is pressed. About two weeks ago I took it to a technician, because all sorts of connectivity (3G/Wi-fi/Bluetooth) simply stopped working, after yet another reboot. About 3 days ago I got it back and it was working fine except for the fact that the initial boot Motorola logo (The green one before the other logo animations) wasn't showing up. He told me it was fine because it was only an aesthetic problem because he couldn't find that image for my device's resolution.
This morning when i was going to work i picked up my XT1025 Moto E to check for messages and it suddenly restarted. So when I turn it back on, not only the animations did not pop up, but after some time all i get is a black screen, no UI whatsover, all I can do is turn off/restart the phone. At random times when I turn on the screen, it's content shows up but I can't click anything, and then an error message pops up saying that ''system has stopped responding''. I've tried many things to fix it, but nothing has worked so far.
What i've tried:
-Wiping cache partition did not work
-Factory resetting did not work either
-Unlocking bootloader (but apparently it was unlocked already)
-Flashing a custom recovery did not work for some reason...
These last two were on the ''All-In-One Guide'' by neo.ank and honestly I have no idea what i should do to fix this problem - I was thinking about reinstalling the stock ROM but i'd rather ask here first for you guys suggestions... (like i said, complete newb here).
Sorry for the long post and bad english, hopefully someone can help me out on this.

Moto E 2nd Generation LTE bootloop issue

Hi gang!
I have a Moto E 2nd Generation here that was having some issues, browser crashing, slow downs, overheating issues due to multiple apps running, etc. So I decided to log into TWRP and attempt to do a factory reset. After this factory reset was done now I attempt to log into fastboot, which gives me the options of start, restart, factory, etc. I am just receiving a boot loop and nothing more. The steps to get this corrected is a bit jumbled and confusing, I must admit. I have installed ADB on my computer in hopes that this will be straightforward. I have downloaded some system images which I thought would help the process, negative. So if someone could help me this would be greatly appreciated.

Heyo John!
I can try to help since I have managed to overcome my bootloop issue and flash a custom ROM into my phone. Could I ask, are you trying to also install a custom ROM? And what version of TWRP do you have?
I had the bootloop issue because of an outdated TWRP and had to flash the latest one, which thankfully worked!
Let me know! ^_^

Hello testerexp345,
Thank you for the reply and the assistance, I am not sure if TWRP is installed anymore as I can't get passed the bootscreen on the phone. I hold down the volume down and power button to get the options of factory reset, shut down, restart, etc. However all these options lead back to the boot screen looping over. The ROM that I had installed on the phone was from an online seller that paired the phone with a SIM card that allowed unlimited data service, which was great for my business since I am out much of the week traveling. Any insight would help, as when it comes to flashing devices and cell phones... let's just say I am a newbie still

If you have an SD Card installed, try removing the SD card and then booting the phone.
If that works... then I bet you have a Samsung 128GB MicroSD card???? (if not, maybe another brand 128GB card?)
It seems that there is something in the 7.1.1 boot sequence for the Moto Z's that is hanging during the mount of the SD Card when it is a Samsung 128GB card. Removal of the SD allows a successful boot up.
Once boot up is complete, you should be able to insert the SD card (without rebooting the phone) and the phone will see the SD card and the "missing SD" notification will go away and the phone will function as it always has. It seems that unless Motorola/Lenovo release a patch for this issue, that your only options are 1) remove SD during every reboot, or 2) purchase a different SD card (Motorola seems to recommend SanDisk).
No there is no SD card. The phone is stuck on bootloader.
I had the same issue, stuck on bootloader and error saying recovery could not be read. I rebooted a few times and it eventually went away. Problem is that now my phone acts REALLY weird. And the Software Assistant does NOTHING to help out. It doesn't detect the phone in regular mode and in fastboot, it says everything is fine and doesn't let me restore.
I have a feeling the OTA had a problem installing and a clean slate is the only way to fix it. The only issue is that I can't find a copy of an XT1560-02 ROM anywhere, only other variants.
I had the same issue after update. Recovery could not be validated. I removed the SD card and boom perfect boot. I just hope the issue gets patched soon, would hate to have to carry that Lil key around for if I need a reboot to remove SD card before boot
Same issue. But instead of removing sd card. Just go into recovery mode and wipe cache.
Works
This helped me. If you can fastboot, this may solve your problem:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/how-to-update-to-official-7-1-1-moto-z-t3640298
you don't need to root or install TWRP if you don't want to.

I did it, but i couldn't.. nothing happend. Y tried to unlock BootLoader too, cause the first part try something with the BL, and then, when i was unlocking, my phone said: Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Android Settings > Developer... And off course i can't, if i have a softbrick....
Well, i lost my warranty now too.
If anyone could help, pls help us. If anyone know how to pass that step in BL, pls tell us...

Maybe you could provide more information. Have you been on Stock 7.1.1 and tried to unlock your bootloader without allowing Oem Unlocking in developer options? What is the current state of your device, means are you able to get into recovery mode?
7.1.1 Original Stock - Not Allowed OEM Unlocking
Everything was great, but a week ago the cellphone it restarted itself, and never back: It's stuck in bootloop.
I get it with Android 6.0, and i was upgrading via Ota until 1th July, which that means it's 7.1.1 Rom Stock
Cause i wanted have my cellphone pure, i didnt touch anything(I didn't want loose my warranty), so i'm never check to allow "oem unlocking"
Now, warranty doesn't help me because i bought it in Italia, and im living in Argentina now, and they said taht they have Local Warranty.
So, i tried to solved it by my self... I did it with my old phones but they were cheap, so i think is it that why i never have ear about Reset Software Factory Protection.
Brief:
Original Stock 7.1.1
Yes, i tried unlock BL without Allow OEM Unlocking
Yes, i can get in BootLoader and in fastboot without problem
Thank You very much
Maybe a factory reset might help. Switch off your phone. By holding the power button and the volume down button you get into bootloader mode. Tap volume up until you see recovery. Press power to confirm. (If you see the little green android, hold the power button for 2 sec and then press volume up) In the recovery menue select factory reset, if you choose with data wipe, be aware that you'll lose all your data. After that reboot your system. Hopefully it will boot up and you can set it up from scratch.

2. Which version of stock rom did you download?
3. Download and install RSD-lite on your pc

Start RSD-lite on your pc.
Then put your device in bootloader mode and connect it to your pc. Does RSD-lite show, that your device is connected?

That's good. (Sorry for the late reply, it was late and i fell asleep).
As i understood you purchased the device in italy and now you live permantly in argentina. Where did you take the 7.1.1 OTA, in Italy or in Argentina?
With the help of RSD we could try to restore your firmware. Not sure if it works for you in Argentina.
1. Download the NPL25...RETBR stockfirmware from here on your pc https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/griffin/official/RETBR/
2. Extract the zip and search for this file: flashall.xml and remember where to find it.
3. Run RSD on your pc
4. Reinsert your simcard (not the sdcard). Put your moto z into bootloader mode and connect it with your pc. Wait until it gets recognized.
4. Click the three little dots in RSD (left beneath the start button). Now search the flashall.xml file and double click. It will be added to the command field.
5. Click start.
RSD should now flash the firmware onto your device. This takes about 10 minutes. Wait untill your moto reboots completely and you get a PASS notification in RSD.
Hope it works. If not, we have to try plan B.

I have downloaded both of them, just in case.

There is still no RETEU 7.0 available, thats why you have to flash the RETBR.
Try again to flash the RETBR NPL25..firmware with RSD. If you'll get the same failed error message, here is
PLAN B:
Copy the flashall.xml file and rename it to flashallcopy.xml.
Open the copied file with a text editor and delete the 2 lines with "gpt" and "bootloader" in it. Save it and close the copy. With this the RSD program will skip those two commands. Click the 3 dots and add the flashallcopy.xml file to RSD. Click Start.
If that doesn't work, we have to run Plan C
Good luck

Bootloop - No ADB or Fastboot available

First sorry, i'm french.
So I've installed AIO Theme Expander package for substratum. It worked fine then I decide to uninstall it. It's now very bad.
My phone is on a bootloop. Seeing the Lineage OS booting animation for infinity. I try Power + Volume UP, nothing, just bootloop of lineage; same with Volume DOWN.
So I try to let the phone in bootloop to test adb or fastboot on my computer, nothing, no devices detected.
What can I do?
LG G4 - Lineage OS 14.1 latest
reset and reflash os

First of all you need to do a hard reset of your phone. if your recovery is working then flash a new rom and then a new kernel.
secondly if there is no recovery then connect your phone to pc and flash one via odin. note : if odin does not detect your phone, you need to drain your battery to 0% then connect it to pc then odin should detect it and flash the rom and bootimage asap.
at last if nothing works, you have 2 options : service centre method or manual method
1. go to service centre and send the phone to repair. they can fix such problems easily even if your phone is rooted because this happened with me a long time ago when my samsung phone got bootlooped and it was rooted with warranty void. But the service centre fixed it for me for free and no objection.
2.MANUAL METHOD : DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
FOR THIS YOU NEED TO BE GOOD AT HARDWARE.
GO TO GOOGLE AND SEARCH RESET PHONE HARDWARE AND YOU WILL GET THE ANSWER
thanks and i hope this helps you.

So I try flashing a .kdz then my lineage os with twrp... And it worked ! BUT no torch lamp (idk the english name), no sensors and others glitches appears on my phone since. Maybe have I installed the wrong .kdz?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4...tock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848?nocache=1
I installed the europe open h81510d but on my LGUP it's this:
H81510C STANDBY
Maybe I need to install h81510c? But the problem is which kdz choose, my phone is from amazon so idk the country (europe or france i guess)

Probably choose the europe one. Amazon shipments are from europe. For other glitches, just install gapps from google.
As of the H81510D, you should install the one which is on your phone else you will end up with major problems.
Which one?

Any ROMs available for yellowstone? I can see one in use on the LineageOS Statistics page (search 14.1-20190208-UNOFFICIAL-yellowstone)
But I can't find it on xda.
I didn't get it to boot, but I was in a hurry and hopefully just forgot something simple. If anyone gets it working please post details. Hopefully this is legit:
Edit: link removed. Per the developer: "please don't use them. They're experimental, and won't be booting for some time... you run the chance of bricking. Definitely stay away until I make some form of announcement otherwise."
@highwaystar_ru gave me this ROM that is working splendidly on my yellowstone: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/Hmco/XryszodXm
From @highwaystar_ru:
It uses binary files from stock yellowstone and has some issues:
cameras doesnt work, video playback sometimes has artifacts, all cpu
cores always up (without it video playback lags), accelerometer sensor
inverted.
Me and couple of lineage devs working hard to port shieldtablet kernel
to yellowstone, it will allow to use shield binary files and resolve
most problems, but progress are really slow (but there is some
progress lately).

Thanks! This is working very well so far for the limited testing I've done. I'll have to take it into the field and see how that goes .
Tried out that ROM , it's pretty good outside of issues listed bluetooth is non functional.
Mobile data , text, wifi etc working.
Back to life
Thanks to highwaystar_ru I was able to install twrp and then lineage 14.1 with Open GApps pico.
I hope that somebody will be able to bring this to 15.1
Please keep up your effort, Hurray I can use my tango again , at least some of it, would be great that bluetooth and cameras working and good luck with the shield software i'll be looking for it . Thanks alot
thanks
worked for me. . with all the restrictions added.. but still brought a perfectly fine tablet from no usage to home automation dashboard device
Great work thank you,
Also i tested that Rom in the thread and it works well despite the reversed sensor, bluetooth (and i report USB on dock non fuctional with rom)
has there been any progress on the Rom at all? thanks.
Any progress with this rom?
Also @shiznit1618 and @highwaystar_ru where are you guys collaborating? If this is a telegram, discord, or other chat group. I'd love to get in and talk, maybe help a bit. I'm currently on arcore devs slack chat but there isn't much activity in their #yellowstone channel.

There does seem to be some active development on GitHub (within the last week) and I also found (from same developer on GitHub) a newer rom based on 15.1 although I couldn't get it to boot, seems I need to update TWRP, but trying to update TWRP it tells me the recovery partition exceeded size, so I assume I have to update boot as well (which I didn't do). i'd suggest checking on GitHub and contacting that developer.

This is the same project I had mentioned in post #3. I took the link down because it wasnt ready at the time and I've been waiting for the dev to let us know when its working. See post #3 for a quote from him...
But... there is a build from Feb 12. Please let us know how it goes if you try it. :good:

I have a new issue, my tablet is rebooting constantly. It will crash to a "red battery icon" and then boot back up to the lockscreen. I'm not sure if the battery in my unit is bad or if the battery calibration is messed up. Do you have any ideas what to do here?
My device was restored to stock btw.

I never got a hold of a original dock, I didn't check to see if keeping it on charge helped.

Did you flash that build from Feb 12?
How did you return to stock? A TWRP backup or do you have original firmware?
Does it keep bootlooping by itself without any input from you or will it sit stable at the lockscreen? Can you keep it turned off?
Depending on the answers to those questions, the first thing I would do is turn it off and plug it in. Let it sit until fully charged. It takes a long time via USB, and even longer if it is on. Not that this is a solution, just troubleshooting...

It reboots without me touching. The main OS has a full battery icon but the reboot flashes the red battery icon before booting. I flashed using NVFlash a copy of the stock OS I got from the arcore stack. Someone gave me their APX package that NVFlash requires.

What I did in the interest of still letting a device turn on if someone didn't get the chance to back up their persist/persistbk, was I took mine, and scrubbed the mac addresses and serial number. So the macs are set to 00:11:22:33:44:55:66, and the serial num is 012345678.

I can't see that convo without an account. Have you asked for help there?
Until I get home I can't really look at that apx. Maybe install TWRP and the ROM from post #4 or a TWRP backup? Without knowing what that apx flashed its hard to say. The ROM from highwaystar_ru (mostly) works. Might at least get you out of the bootloop.
And just to be clear, you did not flash that 15.1 build, right? What were you running before flashing the apx?
Unless TWRP and that LOS 14.1 ROM or a TWRP backup help we've gone off topic for this thread...
