[FIX] Android Lollipop OTA GPE stuck at bootlogo - Moto G General

For those who are stuck at bootlogo, the problem is the same as the one when we tried before downgrading from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 it is with the partition table, the version in the ota is older that the one we have on our devices, I dunno how the hell is that but it is what happened to most of us, though the easy fix, flash the attached gpt through fastboot command:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
Hope this fixed everything ​

Thanks very much for the information!
I recently tried flashing the 4.4.4 GPE firmware onto my XT1032 and I got an error when trying to flash the GPT.bin partition using mfastboot. It said "failed". I got nervous and went back to the retail US firmware just in case. We need more people to confirm that this fix will work.
OP do you know if it's safe to flash your GPT partition before installing the OTA update on the 4.4.4 GPE ROM?

It works!
I cant flash any rom to my phone and everything failed on half proces and with this file i rescued my phone i flashed 4.4.4 gpe and than 5.0.1 ota (by sideload) !
My Moto Gpe was brick!! And now it works again!!!! Thanks!!!!

Yes I can confirm, I faced this issue myself and used this fix for it )​

Yeah!!! this work very well, you save my phone, thanks man

seriusly that was all? i had 2 moto g at home and when the first one got the ota it got hard bricked, but stupid me got back to 4.4.2 and at the 4.4.4 ota the phone hard bricked, i think that the bootloader is corrupted and now i have to wait for the full 5.0 rom to be aviabable. Thanks man i appreciate it (i had another moto g and just got the ota and booted because of this)

can't use that, i've got the 41.18 bootloader so i have to wait a 5.0 original firmware :/
or am i doing something wrong?

Bad news

We have the same problem fella. We must wait the firmware with the image of new bootloader...Maybe in one month we take a solution...

So, with new bootloader is not possible to apply OTA. I have received 5.0.1 OTA on my 4.4.4 GPE converted XT1032, but this failed to start after latest try to update

The original GPE firmware has a bootloader version older than that of the 4.4.4 "again I don't know why" the only fix is by flashing the gpt file included, if you flashed the android lollipop and it didn't work, flash this and give it a shot .
"bear in mind also that this fix is for devices stuck at bootlogo not bootanimation, not a fix for bootloop"

No man, do the following:
1- Reboot Into bootloader and connect your device via usb.
2- In your adb folder paste the gpt file I included and press right click and shift in any white space in the folder and choose start command prompt.
3- type fastboot flash partition gpt.bin and your problem should be fixed.

boot stuck
Hi, I've stucked on "android logo with unlocked lock icon".
Originally I had xt1033 asian, which was converted to 4.4 GPE one sim. Today I've tried to flash the 5.0.1 lollipop via adb, and as many of you guys, stucked on boot.
I've already tried your fix, and tried to downgrade following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/guide-xt1033-downgrade-lollipop-5-0-to-t2969729
but still phone doesn't boot, just "Google" and lock icon...
can you help me, at least boot it, android version doesn't metter
** UPDATE **
So, I've managed to boot phone thatks to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/guide-restore-softbricked-phone-t2965459
Gonna make a backup and try installing 5.0.1 again

Not exactly, my XT1033 had 41.18 bootloader when i applied the 5.0.1 ota, it just worked with the following tutorial. I didn't even use the gpt file here.

Look at this tread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/gpe-ota-lrx21z-5-0-1-xt1033-xt1032-t2969847
1st post
Step 5
Maybe it could work

My Own devices is a XT1032, and this fix has nothing to do with the XT1033 converted to GPE .​

I can also confirm that this works. But my phone was already converted to GPE and had 4.4.4 before I did the OTA update.
Giovani's guide works if you're stuck on the bootlogo after updating to 4.4.4 and then lollipop through OTA (on a gpe converted device of course). I used the second method in that thread.

Yes, he is sure because the filename naming scheme used by Motorola automatically renames any update to the name of the firmware currently installed.
KennyWuLee, had 21.11.17 installed while he downloaded the update and that is why the filename is "Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuglb.retuglb.en.US.zip"

Is there a chance to make this file a flashable zip through TWRP? For some reason it doesn't want to install, it says "/system/lib/hw/sensort.MSM8226.so" has unexpected contents :S

Sounds like your on a XT1063. This is what I did when I was in the same position as you. I restored my Nandroid of KK. If you have a all stock copy then you should be better then I was & about to skip a few of these steps. I found a system dump on here of the stock system & started pushing the files I knew I removed. Actually I used ES File Explorer & done a select all, copy, paste. You get prompted to ask what to do about files that are already there. Check apply to all & choose skip. This left me with a audio file that was replaced & had to be change back. You should make a new Nandroid to save your work to this point. Flash the stock recovery & run the update.zip. mine installed fine with the unlocked bootloader & root.
L is really buggy tho so be warned.
Sorry for the noob question.
I have the XT1063 and my system version is 21.11.14 titan_retla.retla.en.01 . Will this ota work on my phone?

You will have to flash via fastboot the XT1063 retugbl firmware in order to use this OTA file.
Check this thread, but consider making a full backup.

Worked great for me. Unlocked Bootloader XT1058 AT&T US on 5.0.2
Will I be able to go back to stock after doing this? I mean there's no sbf for 5.0.2 yet, so is there anyway to revert this process?
I haven't done it yet, won't do if theres no way to go back.
Thanks
changes the stock recovery?or is only temporary

Yeah you can always go back to stock by flashing 4.4.4 sbf file. I just flashed on my XT1053 and it works just fine.

TWRP and SU included in the 5.0.2 ROM
Found out can't downgrade from 5.0 to 4.4.4 and am screwed after trying to take an OTA soak update.
edit: found a way how... it's sneaky though. Use the stock 4.4.4 recovery files, but for the gpt.bin file, replace it using a gpt.bin file from one of the leaked 5.0.2 recovery files and flash as normal to get back to 4.4.4. I had a 1% battery stuck bug though after doing this and discovered by killing the phone all the way to 0% shut down and then recharge the battery meter fixed itself again. Got all the way back to stock 5.0.2 soak test once again after doing this.

I looked at that zip. With regards to the modem, it flashes an unknown version (soak version?) of both NON-HLOS.bin AND fsg.mbn
I am running LP 5.02 (soak2) with the stock att xt1058 4.4.4 modem without issue, so it *might* work if you extract NON-HLOS.bin and fsg.mbn from your stock version of 4.4.4 and run the following from fastboot:
Code:
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
Good luck.

I did the same but just deleted the gpt.bin reference line in the xml to skip over flashing it. I'm not now .38 soak test
So it is safe to downgrade? I would like come back to stock 4.4.4 and then install CM12, my question is because of the bootloader version I read a downgrade may cause brick

[HELP] Problem flashing TWRP recovery on ZUI

Hello, i have a problem flashing custom recovery TWRP on ZUI.
below are the details of the problems:
ZUI Version: 1.2.040
Unlock Bootloader: YES (I feel a bit sketch on this part, because the process does not wipe any data)
Custom recovery to be installed: Un-Official 2.8.7.0 TWRP Recovery for ZUK Z1 by Breadcrust
1. when i try to flash the recovery on fastboot mode, it gives me this:
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote : Invalid data)
finished. total time" 0.418s
2. when i try boot the recovery on fastboot mode, it also gives error:
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [0.362s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: bootimage: incomplete or not signed)
finished. total time: 0.369s
* For the solution, i have tried kingroot to allow root access ---> NOT SUCCESFULL
** For 2nd solution, i have tried downgrading the ZUI version ----> NOT SUCCESFULL (cannot get into qdloader mode long enough).
*** I also have tried re-downloading the recovery image without using download accelarator (IDM) ---> NOT SUCCESFULL
edit: please... if somebody know the problem, please teach me how to overcome the problem. thank you (* sorry bad english)
Unlock your bootloader and retry.
Already retried to unlock the bootloader.. But no luck.. Thanks for the tips btw

I have the same problem like it desribed by the OP.
I have the chinese version of the ZUK.
The Bootloader seems to be unlocked. When i check it, it says Unlocked: true.
When i did the Unlock, it didnt wipe something. When I do the unlock, it says ok, but there is no reboot.
But somehow, i cant boot or flash a recovery. Every time I have the error, Invalid data or not signed.
Root does also not work.
I have the latest version of ZUI installed. Is this the problem?
I read the problem several times, but nobody posted a solution for this.

ZUI 1.2 locked the bootloader.If the TWRP recovery image file is twrp.img,You can try to do these:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot twrp.img
then you will boot into a temporary TWRP recovery.Now you can do everything here utill it reboots or shutdown.
if you want to flash a permanent recovery, I suggest to you to convert your ZUI to COS.

So i have decided to move to ZUI version and it's perfect so far i'm not facing any problem. Only the vulnerable is there some kind of malware and GPS having some bugs i have checked with bbs.zuk forms and they are suppose to fix it with next update. so i was trying to install the stagefright fix via recovery.remaining everything is smooth and faster than CM12.

ZUI 1.2 locked the bootloader.If the TWRP recovery image file is twrp.img,You can try to do these:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot twrp.img
then you will boot into a temporary TWRP recovery.Now you can do everything here utill it reboots or shutdown.
if you want to flash a permanent recovery, I suggest to you to convert your ZUI to COS.

I also tried to boot. But it also denies this action :/.
So with the latest version my boot loader is locked. Sounds wonderful.

Hello, i have a problem flashing custom recovery TWRP on ZUI.
below are the details of the problems:
ZUI Version: 1.2.040
Unlock Bootloader: YES (I feel a bit sketch on this part, because the process does not wipe any data)
Custom recovery to be installed: Un-Official 2.8.7.0 TWRP Recovery for ZUK Z1 by Breadcrust
1. when i try to flash the recovery on fastboot mode, it gives me this:
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote : Invalid data)
finished. total time" 0.418s
2. when i try boot the recovery on fastboot mode, it also gives error:
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [0.362s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: bootimage: incomplete or not signed)
finished. total time: 0.369s
* For the solution, i have tried kingroot to allow root access ---> NOT SUCCESFULL
** For 2nd solution, i have tried downgrading the ZUI version ----> NOT SUCCESFULL (cannot get into qdloader mode long enough).
*** I also have tried re-downloading the recovery image without using download accelarator (IDM) ---> NOT SUCCESFULL
edit: please... if somebody know the problem, please teach me how to overcome the problem. thank you (* sorry bad english)

In this case, you need flash fw Z1_CN_OPEN_USER_Q4275715.1_L_ZUI_1.0.050_ST_150910 via sd card ( root internal memory/creat sdfuse folder), after turn off fone and boot phone via factory mode recovery ( voulme down + power ). If phone flash ok, version is 1.0.050. So, phone can flash twrp recovery and rom CyanogenMod 12.1 .
Goodluck

First you must downgrade the ZUI from 1.2.040, just search this topic in this forum: how-to-flash-zuk-z1-zui-version-t3265741
After that you can boot with TWRP recovery. But if you failed to flash Cyanogen, use Modaco steps: 375804-convert-z1-from-zukui-to-cyanogen-os/
When your ZUK Z1 already use Cyanogen, you can flash to other recovery or ROMs easier .

Yes, me too. UK, unlocked. It was a big download, still going. Not Nougat, which is what I first thought. No idea yet what it fixes.
I have been on this version on the US unlocked version (screenshot) I wish we would get nougat already.

So, it's the August security update? That's it?
Yeah, I'm guessing so. Kind of disappointed with the dev work and software updates for this phone. Still one of the best phones I have ever had. Just wish it would take off on here.

Unrelated to updates, how did you get the black/dark theme?
which firmware are you in , I wnt the dsds modem firmware lol
Any ideas on how to flash it on an unlocked device; I couldn't even with the stock recovery.
TWRP gets far into the update but ends with ERROR: 7 (the system partition has unexpected contents.)
Yeah, I'm having the same issue. It's getting on my nerves...
Even when trimming the updater-script file, I still end up with asset errors. I went so far I now get Error: 6 and now I can't be bothered to find the missing semicolon...
Stuck during update

Just use substratum and download the "A swift dark theme" from the store.

Scrap my past post, I think I know what it is (and not the same as yours). We'll see.
Hey guys, just curious do we need to un-root our device before updating via OTA or can we keep our device rooted and apply update without any issues? Also does root survive after updating to a new version via OTA? I havent got my phone yet, still shipping..

You can try to install SuperSU survival script but I haven't tried it, I'm rooted , running xposed and ultered some system files so the ota will not flash on my system.
You'll definitely have to flash stock recovery and uninstall any customizations you have made to your system.
I tried flashfire myself and it wouldn't flash the ota for me.
Sent from my XT1635-02 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
You can't keep root to accept the OTA. If anything in the /system, /oem, /boot, /recovery partitions are different from what it expects, it'll fail with error 7.
To revert to a state where you can accept the OTA, go get the correct stock image file for your variant. In my case, it was XT1635-02_ADDISON_RETUS_MPN24.104-49_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip (you can download stock images from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/addison/official/).
In the zip file will be boot.img, oem.img, recovery.img, and system.img_sparsechunk.0 (all the way through system.img_sparsechunk.10). You need to flash all 13 of those files from the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
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 system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.10
From there, boot into the OS and check for update, it'll go through the process, reboot into the stock recovery and go through the OTA update.
Wife's unlocked/GSM MZP got the November Security patch a couple days ago. I would think Moto would be trying to update this phone to Nougat soon after the Z and Z Force got it last month, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Even the Moto G got updated before this phone.
Oh well, Nougat doesn't really bring much to the phone anyways, I've had it on my 6P since its release. It will be interesting to see if this phone gets even better battery life after the update though. 10+ hours of SoT in a charge is already insane.

Brick moto g4 xt1622

Hi, yesterday i have unlock bootloader of my moto g4, xt 1622 , i have flashed twrp and this is perfect, but after i have flashed zip of magisk.zip for root permission, when i reboot i obtain only black screen and led white ( intermittence led) .
The device is recognize by windows 10 (in test mode and no signature driver verify ) but not in tray bar..
Mode recognized by pc are:
in fast boot like " fastboot athene_13mp S " in "other device"
In adb mode " sideload" ( from stock recovery) like "Moto g4 plus " in device manager/usb devices"
I have stock recovery and can't start blank flash because the device isn t recognized by pc like qualcomm device..
What can i do??? Thanks a lot my friends!!
The problem is that magisk is not compatible with the Stock kernel, so if you want magisk you need to flash a custom kernel, i recomend this: https://elementalx.org/devices/moto-g4/ you need to flash the kernel and after this flash magisk.
Regards
Wow! So the phone is save? ?
And what can i flash pther kernel, can i have a guide plz? Can i flash with sideload? Thanks!
Yes, you need to enter un recovery, conect your phone to pc and with adb put in the cmd adb sideload nameofyourzip.zip and then flash magisk with sideload if hoy wanr
Unfortunately i recive this error.. what can i do? Thanks!!

Ok, first you need to install twrp: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...p-twrp-3-0-2-2-recovery-moto-g4-plus-t3386586
Then you need to go in twrp to avanced and adb sideload and flash it.
Hmm, can you confirm if you have stock Marshmallow (6.0.1) or Nougat (7.0) on your device? I see from the stock recovery version that it's 6.0.1/MPJ24.139-23-4 (a really old build of Marshmallow).
Thanks ismael! I m going to try it
@ECHO first of this mods, the smartphone have nougat full stock. When i have installed twrp the sistem started normally, but when i flashed magisk the sistem started with black screen, before this i ve factory reset and flash a zip of stock rom.. and start a very problem!!
Thaks a lot to all for help me and sorry for my bad english.

Thanks, as Ismael034202 pointed out above, if you were on stock Nougat, then you will need to flash a custom kernel, as rooting on the stock Motorola Nougat kernel will cause a boot failure. If you were still on Nougat, then you could have followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...de-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918 with flashing magisk instead of SuperSU.
As you've re-flashed the old Marshmallow stock ROM, then you do not need a custom kernel (Marshmallow stock ROM kernels are less strict about rooting), flashing TWRP and then flashing magisk should work on Marshmallow.
However, you need to be very careful if you revert back to full stock - as you've appeared to have downgraded from Nougat, taking OTA updates may hard brick your device. If you can remember what Nougat stock ROM you had before unlocking your device, I would recommend downloading a copy of that stock ROM and using the stock ROM to update. Try not to use stock OTA updates.
Very well explained echo92. +1 ?
what can i flash somethings?? because usb debug is off after wipe dataa, and i can t enter in android to activate it!! plz help

Hmm, in that case, the easiest way may be to flash the latest stock ROM to your device and start over again. As an alternative, do you have a TWRP backup of your device?
For XT1622, you'll likely want NPJS25.93-14-13 (Nougat, 7.0 stock, December 2017 security patch) firmware from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
Download and extract as directed in the post, and to flash to repair your device, use the following flashing commands:
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 reboot

This should not re-lock your bootloader. Next, download TWRP, ElementalX and magisk and flash as I suggested in the guide above. The basic guide for rooting on Nougat is:
a)Flash/boot TWRP. Backup your device.
b)Flash ElementalX.
c)Flash magisk or SuperSU.
d)Wipe cache/Dalvik in TWRP.
e)Reboot and wait for boot.
f)Any issues, revert to your backup made in a)
Can i use fastboot within debug usb off? Because i recive an error, i m tryng and post a pic.
Thanks
This is my situation after try to use fastboot
Hace you installed Motorola drivers for pc, you can use fastboot without USB debugging
https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/rola/es/solution/MS89882 This os the link for the fastboot drivers
Thanks guys!! I had write the stock 7.0!! Now the phone is perfect!! Thanks!!
I had wrong driver and pc not recognized the phone!! Now yes ??
Now install twrp, elementalX Kernel, magisk and enjoy
