My XT1521 is stuck at Fastboot, after trying to install last night's OTA update. The Bootloader Logs screen says "failed to validate system image" followed by "Boot up failed".
All of my important data is backed up. I don't care about preserving any data on the phone; I just want to get it working again.
The attached photo shows what I can see.
After connecting the USB cable, "fastboot devices" returns TA38502SB6 fastboot
Is this something I can fix myself, with appropriate software? Will I need to approach Motorola? Is it beyond help?
Flash the twrp recovery using fastboot, install a rom and the squid kernel. The Rom is pretty stable now..

Or else you can download the stock Rom

Was it the stock 5.1 update???
Software status: modified
How did you get the OTA update and what did you do previously ?
Recovery log says you had a modified software. So there was no hope to apply patch properly. And it bricked your system

Not sure. It was only around 20-30MB or so; can't remember the exact size.

OTA update was advertised through the normal Motorola OTA feature. All I did was to tap on "Yes, I'm in" to accept it when it was offered.
If my phone's ruined, then it's ruined. Irritating, but not the end of the world; a new Moto E2 isn't expensive. I'd just prefer not to have to buy a new one if there's any hope of resurrecting this one. As I indicated in my first post, the important data is safe; I just want a working phone again.
Edit: just re-read your question; realised I might have misunderstood part of it.
My phone had previously been rooted; before accepting the OTA update I went through the steps to unroot the phone before taking the OTA update; looks like something went wrong somewhere along the way.

i got the update yesterday too on my X1521 but it was working fine.after immediate reboot it was lagging like hell but rebooting solved it
Guys don't panic. What I would do is unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP, after that just download any custom ROM and TWRP lets you get on MTP so you can transfer the ROM to the internal storage.
---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------
Also there's plenty of stock ROMS out there like SuperR's Stock Roms
I have a similar issue, I just accepted the OTA update from Motorola on my XT1511(otus), It was stock/rooted. The phone went into boot loop. Tried these things to remedy
1) tried booting to TWRP from fastboot. I'd get the TWRP splash screen, but no functionality
2)flashed TWRP - now have functioning recovery, but during rom flash get "error, cant mount /data
3)fastboot -w successfully wiped data, but couldn't format partition, still raw
4)From twrp "mount" screen couldn't check the box for mounting data
5)from twrp wipe>format data was able to format the partition
6) I've flashed a couple of twrp recovery images, and a couple of different roms, I don't get error messages, but now when the phone is powered on it always boots into recovery, even when reboot>system or reboot power off is selected. I can still access fast boot.
Any suggestions? I'm going to try returning to stock at this point'
Update: Downloaded stock recovery here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=11977
Installed with fastboot, phone boots properly now!
Alright guys here's the situation:
I'm really new to this and I've screwed up.
I was using TWRP to perform a factory reset and I made an advanced wipe and wiped the following partitions:
-Dalvik/ART Cache
-Cache
-Data
-Internal Storage
-Vendor
After the wipe was done I was unable to boot into android,the phone kept trying to reboot.
Now whenever i try to start up my phone:
I first get the default huawei animation for turning it on
Then i get the disclaimer saying how the phone was opened and it isn't secure anymore(ever since it got rooted)
Then the phone tries to boot and it goes back to the black screen.
What should I do to restore my system again?
Or maybe i need to reinstall it completely?
TL;DR How do i reflash my p10 lite with the stock ROM?
UPDATE:Trying to boot into the bootloader through twrp>reboot gets me into the rescue mode screen.

So how would I go about that?
Just use TWRP to install the imgs?
Also where would could I find a ROM?I'm an idiot that didn't back it up,because I'm hasty.

Yes use TWRP and search the rom for your model on xda or Google or so I don't have the p10 lite so I can't help you there..

It's okay I fixed my problem: I flashed recovery, boot, cust and system.img from B130 and restore with the TWRP backup of @Rommco05
Sent from my STF-L09 using XDA Labs
My problem is more seriuos.
I have unlocked BOOTLOADER, flashed TRWP and OpenKirin's RROS 5.8.4. All worked so far but I wanted to go back to stock.
So I've tried to flash stock rom again, did some wipe and factory resets, don't know anymore exactly what I all did as it wasn't working as expected.
Long story short, I've bricked my phone. :crying:
There is no more TWRP, BOOT is relocked and FRP locked.
System does only boot to eRecovery and Fastboot mode. Can't boot into dialer.
In fastboot mode I can do some fastboot commands, like "fastboot devices" but when trying to flash a file I get the error "remote:command not allowed".
ADB doesn't find the device.
ERecovery doesn't work, Huawei service says, that the phone/IMEI is blocked on their server as I have unlocked bootloader and therefor eRecovery is blocked.
Is there any change to get it back to life?
Would be nice if anyone could help.
Thanks in advance.
SOLVED
Could solve my problem following this post
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/help/help-hardbrick-func-11-recovery-image-t3656979
and using DC Phoenix software.
Now it works like a charm.

Hi, can anyone please help me with my problem?
I have merged the partition countless of time, but this time I F***cked up my device.
So here's the scenario, I am using RR 7.1 the suddenly I flashed the mi pad stock recovery. after this one, the device was bootlooped to mi logo so I used mi flash to reflash a fastboot rom. But after this, my mi pad just booting up to recovery and the hangs. I cant even wipe it, also i cant boot to fastboot (vol- + power), I just go back to the recovery and then hangs again. I think I broke the partition where the fastboot lies. Can anybody help me with this problem or there isnt anything I can do?
If you can boot to fastboot, try Miflash with fastboot rom. I this fixes everything. I am not sure though
After Repartitioning with RahulTheVirus script , I was never been able to go to stock partition. Even after fastbooting stock rom, I was never been able to boot on second partition via stock recovery. I just bootloops.

My mi pad 1 failed while partitioning. now it hangs after booting just in 2-3 seconds. cannot do anything in recovery or twrp.
do you have any solution?
i did everything.
I was facing the same issue. The issue is that the system1 partition is not active. By using CWM, I was able to change it and it fixed the issue. I got the idea from this post.

Code:
fastboot flash recovery *twrp image name*
should allow you to write twrp to your flash partition.
If you're using
Code:
fastboot boot *twrp image name*
it just loads twrp for that instance.
On a sidenote, what are your plans with TWRP? MIUI has an issue that twrp asks for password when starting. If you want to root, you're better off loading it for single instance, installing magisk.

I don't think developer rom should be a problem.
Try this:
1. Copy PE Rom on your SD Card.
2. Fire up the stock recovery->wipe data.
3. Then when rebooting, keep the Vol Down key pressed. This will take you directly to Bootloader without invoking MIUI to encrypt the internal storage.
4. Connect to your pc, boot to TWRP with
Code:
fastboot boot *twrp image name*
You will see that it no longer asks for password.
5. In TWRP, go to Wipe Data->Advanced Wipe->Wipe everything except SD Card. (I am assuming you want a clean flash)
6. Back to main twrp screen->Install->Select Storage->SD Card->ROM File. It will take a while to install.
7. Reboot and you're good to go.
Please note that you still have the stock recovery installed in your phone. You can try to replace it with TWRP now as there won't be MIUI to roll it back to stock recovery. Hope it helps.

I did something and now i have twrp my main recovery but every time i wan't wipe it says unable to mount data and some others errors. I tried to flash magisk it worked and my phone is now rooted. I can format data and boot back into miui. But how i can fix the problem? Is my twrp broken? I don't think that miui stock recovery is deleted i think its only overwritten by twrp.

If you want to use miui then miui eu roms are recommended. They work flawless with custom twrp's.

No twrp isn't broken. The recovery is responsible for wiping data. Since stock recovery isn't there, the phone boots into twrp. Try factory reset inside twrp->Wipe or advanced wipe->select everything except sd card and format. If that fails, I have uploaded a copy of my recovery to the below link. Flash that and follow the process I have given above. If the phone starts booting into miui, it will encrypt the internal storage again and you have to start over.

Another thing, before you wipe your internal storage log out of your google and mi accounts. Else, PE Rom might throw an error saying there's something wrong with your phone. As far as I know it doesn't affect the functionality, but why take the risk.

Can you unlock the internal storage from twrp there? I am seeing all those tutorials saying that you should enter you lock screen password in twrp to unlock your internal storage but it doesn't seem to work.

AFAIK, you can't flash another ROMs twrp if it was built with proper assert.
And I haven't heard of twrp hard bricking the phone. You can always flash stock ROM via fast boot but say goodbye to data & internal storage.
So always keep backup.

No twrp isn't broken. The recovery is responsible for wiping data. Since stock recovery isn't there, the phone boots into twrp. Try factory reset inside twrp->Wipe or advanced wipe->select everything except sd card and format. If that fails, I have uploaded a copy of my recovery to the below link. Flash that and follow the process I have given above. If the phone starts booting into miui, it will encrypt the internal storage again and you have to start over.

Another thing, before you wipe your internal storage log out of your google and mi accounts. Else, PE Rom might throw an error saying there's something wrong with your phone. As far as I know it doesn't affect the functionality, but why take the risk.

Yes I use Redmi 5 as well. This is just a backup of my stock recovery. No issues.

Sorry I haven't been able to solve the internal storage
mounting issue either. I just wipe my data using stock recovery, go straight into bootloader before it can boot up, boot twrp from there and install whatever rom i need to install.

I have heard that people format data and then they restart the phone to recovery and wipe all data. Is that right? And if i flash pe rom do i need to flash anything else?

Formatting data and wiping data from recovery is the same thing. I'd suggest that you wipe data from recovery. That way it won't automatically reboot and accidentally go into android again. You can keep the vol down button pressed immediately after hitting reboot so bootloader starts right away. Remember to remove your mi account and google account before doing any data wipe.
PE comes preloaded with all the gapps. I didn't have to flash anything else with it.
