Boot Loop - Moto Z Questions & Answers

Hi guys, I've tried all the threads so far and have got no where. I unlocked my device and flashed a custom rom, that worked fine. I then noticed no way to go back to stock so I tried the odexed version with no luck. Now any rom I flash does not boot, just loops back to twrp. I would like to get as close to stock as possible even if it's another region. Has anyone had any luck on getting their phones booting after this?
I've tried flashing stock firmware from 6.0.1 then flashing ota through side load
Flashing other countries firmware (which always ends in fail messages)
I've tried multiple rom from the forum which just loop.
I've spent about 6 hours trying different combinations of recovery, boot and other images with no luck.
Any help is appreciated.

I have gotten stuck with bootloops a couple times now, for me re-flashing a backup or custom rom or custom kernel didn't fix it either. Keep in mind that you cannot go back to 6.0.1 once you have flashed 7.0, the bootloader won't allow it. I have had to flash back to a stock firmware from https:// firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20Z/Stock/XT1650-03/ (remove the space after https:// ) and re-fastboot flash TWRP, re-root, and restore my Titanium Backups to get going again.
It's extremely helpful if you create a servicefile.bat to flash all the firmware parts in the right order. This is the one I made for flashing the RETMX 7.0 image (the main difference I noticed between different firmwares from that link is the number of sparsechunks, so add or delete lines as necessary. I'm sure all this info is available elsewhere, but I didn't manage to find it all in one shot. So I figured I would post it to help others out that are in the same boat. Also note that even though you are re-flashing the bootloader.img it does not re-lock your bootloader.
Code:
echo off
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.16
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
pause
fastboot reboot
exit
Copy the above text and paste it into a new text file and change the name to "servicefile.bat" without quotes (not servicefile.bat.txt), and drop it in with the extracted firmware files. Then either copy-paste your adb and fastboot files into that folder or drop all that folder's contents into your Users/*YOURNAME*/App Data/Local/Android/sdk/platform-tools/ folder. Or better yet, add "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools" to your Path in your system's Environment Variables. The latter will make adb and fastboot work from any command prompt window, then you can just press shift+right-click in the folder that already has the firmware files and choose "Open command window here" and then just type servicefile.bat and press enter. Hope this helps! Good Luck and Happy Flashing!

Use a SD card to flash the ROM using TWRP. Also check on TWRP that the internal and external memory are mounted.

Don't panic! As long as you can get to recovery or bootloader you aren't bricked
I would restore to stock and try everything again.
Here's the stock US ROM https://mega.nz/#!vtVmgAoI!J1cZtlRi0FjRHbxIJGA5U8CLx6RwUWQjwrCbjzf_Naw
There's a link around here for stock EU ROM if you need that instead.
Use these commands from an ADB prompt:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot boot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

I went through the exact same thing, wipe the whole system out, couldn't reboot even after flashing another ROM, then I figured, the boot.img must have gone missing, so I just fastboot flash boot boot.img (the one from within the stock ROM), then the phone booted

Hello, can you give me the EU stock rom, and please for god's sake don't give me this file factory link because this website is downloading slower to force me to buy their premium ****, thanks.

Phone messed up.

Ok, i have unlocked bootloader, installed this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/android-nougat-moto-z-versions-t3506342, added twrp via fastboot, rooted and so on.
Everything worked like a charm.
Than yesterday I got this update notification (from nplp 25.86-15 to nplp 25.86 -17-3; something about fixing notification sound - about 500mb). I thought what the hell lets try it - ended up in boot loop to recovery(twrp).
After that I installed this rom (odexed version) https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/twrp-ported-to-moto-z-eu-version-t3470920.
Again I tried the update since it restored stock recovery - it went into the process and than reported some error.
Now, no matter what rom I install(those 2 and I tried cm14) phone acts messed up, it freezes and reboots when using it randomly and always reboots when screen goes to sleep 4 about 10 seconds.
I have also tried to install mm rom via twrp but ended up in recovery loop.
Any help is highly appreciated..
You need to flash back full stock ROM for your device. Had same issue. But that's if you are downgradable to MM roms

I tried with cm but it's not helping.
Phone is stable so far after that initial self-reboot; I'll wait 4 couple hours and if it stays stable returning to n version because mm is too big of a downgrade.
If it continues rebooting, well I guess I'll just bang my head on the wall few times) cause I am out of ideas..

I have flashed nougat again after that and had one random reboot since. Don't like the fact that reboot happened but otherwise it feels stable and smooth.
Incomparable from what it was before-phone was unusable..
Ok now I have fully functional and stable Moto Z with rooted nougat (EU version).

Hello @tafarelli what versión bootloader have your ?? Very thanks
Downgrade the Nougat at Mm ?
Regards
I never upgraded to nougat through OTA but from fastbooting this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/android-nougat-moto-z-versions-t3506342
so I believe I still have mm bootloader.
If you have n bootloader than I guess(don't know) you will have to wait 4 stock nougat zip equivalent to (1) mm posted above..

It means when they put link for n factory image here

than you download it and fastboot stock n rom to repair your (I presume) damaged device.

Hello my Moto z is in nougat but I was wondering if you had bootloader Nougat and could return to forgive MM if I made you believe that it was in brick my phone sorry for my English there is no image factory of the last version? NPL25.86-17-3 " I installed this by adb sideload but I like to install the whole image thanks

Installing the stock ROM back on Moto Z

Very recently, I unlocked my bootloader and installed Lineage 14.1 on EU Moto Z retail version bought from Germany. I would now like to go back to the stock firmware that came with the phone.
I tried to download the following rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/moto-z-official-firmware-downloads-t3449837 and tried to flash each component separately using the fastboot command.
But everytime I try to flash gpt.bin :
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
I get an error:
Code:
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.059s]
writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.474s
I was wondering if there's a more consistent way to flash the stock rom back? A guide somewhere would be really helpful. I tried searching everywhere but didn't have any luck.

I tried to download the following rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/moto-z-official-firmware-downloads-t3449837 and tried to flash each component separately using the fastboot command.
But everytime I try to flash gpt.bin :
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
I get an error:
Code:
sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.059s]
writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.474s
I was wondering if there's a more consistent way to flash the stock rom back? A guide somewhere would be really helpful. I tried searching everywhere but didn't have any luck.

First of all, you have to use an Android 7 Image, most recent should be RETBR.
I was in the same situation, there is no need for flashing gpt.bin, the other files will work.
Your BL is more up-to-date than the most recent image and I think another problem is that it isn't RETEU...this will cause the error, however, it will work and you will get softwarechannel "reteu".
Only flaw will be, that you're unable to relock the BL.
Hope this helps.
PN me, if you want more information in german.

Thanks a lot for the info, where can I find the Android 7 image for moto Z? and what would be the steps in this case? Should I just install the zip file via twrp?

take a look here
and choose "XT1650-03_GRIFFIN_RETBR_NPL25.86-30_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip"
you have to flash it via fastboot ... btw: TWRP will be gone after flashing, this is 'cause you will flash the original recovery (you will need this for OTA anyway)
steps would be:
0. download files, obviously
1. install motorola device manager, which should include fastboot drivers
2. install minimal adb&fastboot
3. extract files from zip and put them in the same directory as fastboot.exe (should be "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot")
3. boot phone into fastboot mode (power off, power on while holding power+volume down, then choose "fastboot mode")
4. flash via fastboot:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash bluetooth BTFM.bin
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.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.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.11
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.12
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot erase ddr (don't know if this is nessecary)
fastboot reboot
5. profit?
if you need TWRP after this process: you could just "boot it" via "fastboot boot twrp.img" without installing it

It was published already, a day before your post.

[Q] Is it safe to flash another region version of my phone's stock firmware?

Before unlocking or flashing my XT1650-03 it was labelled as retapac and I haven't been able to find any retapac 7.0 images for fastboot but I've found other regions, are they safe to flash?
Yes it's safe, I have done that (I have retmx and used a retbr) and it works exactly the same

I don't know if you need to have unlocked bootloader, when I tried it, I already had it unlocked.
