[Q] screen locks problem with Moto G 2014 - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my Moto G 2014:
Many times the screen locks, and when i try to slide to open it, it will not open but gets locked again and again and I can't use the phone.
I had this issue with 4.4.4 and also after i updated to 5.0.2.
I tried:
1) factory reset.
2) clear cache partition.
3) I try to slide the option bar ad get to the settings but its not alway working to bypass the lock.
4) I tried also to cancel the "slide" option in the security setting to "none" but it still get locked..
what causes the issue? problem with the system? with some sensors? is it a fixable problem?

Did you try to flash stock/ custom rom?

Is your bootloader unlocked?
Have you tried re flashing the firmware. It's just a guess but your system partition may be corrupted.

Thanks you both
I never tried flash custom rom or anything, and I don't know if my bootloader is unlocked.
To flash ROM I need to unlock the bootloader? the only way to fix system partition is to flash new ROM/reflash frimware?

Well, restore to stock firmware with adb and mfastboot at it should be fixed.

Which model are you using? (XT1064 usa single sim, XT1068 international dual sim etc. etc)
The site for the official moto g stock firmwares is down so it is pretty hard to find a legit stock firmware file these days.
Here is one for the xt1064 http://www.rootjunkysdl.com/files/M...AWS_XT1064_4.4.4_KXB21.85-17_cid9_CFC.xml.zip
and one for XT1068
http://d-h.st/VOw (use the BLUE download now button not the orange download button. the orange one tries to get you to use dev host's bad download manager)
You can flash it by installing this 15 second adb installer by Snoop5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
If the latest version does not work then use 1.3
After you have everything downloaded open a terminal at the location you extracted the firmware. Reboot you device into bootloader mode by powering it on while pressing both volume buttons. Plug it into the computer and let the drivers install.
Run these commands. It is normal that the first two give you error if you are currently on 5.x firmware.
Code:
fastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata

My model is XT1063
Is there a trusted original firmware to this version?

No solution found yet after searching for 2 months .

if it keeps force closing then you are not returning the phone to stock. because if you did that would not happen.
so i need you to explain to me what you are using when returning your phone to stock because it is not taking for some reason.

so what your now telling me 3-4 post later is that you did not listen to me at all so you asked for help and when i gave you the correct answer on what to do you did not listen.
so i will try this one more time the 4.4 firmware package you keep using from the Moto x toolkit is not the Sprint firmware so STOP using it and download the firmware from the link below. and flash it with the above commands like i told you to do in my first post

yeah I've tried it about ten times now and i think theres something else from the verizon root that mustve gotten flashed and is causing this
Well you have to flash the NON-HLOS.bin or it is not going to work.
Why not just download the full Sprint firmware file(I believe you've already done this) download rsdlite, remove the var line from the xml, and with one click your phone will work fine again.

endless bootloop after doing the OTA to 4.4.2

So one of my buddies took the OTA update for 4.4.2 while being rooted on 4.4 with TWRP as his recovery. Now he is stuck in an endless bootloop. Any idea what we could do to bring his phone back to life?
By the way, he is on Sprint and has his bootloader unlocked
Any advice would help!
Thanks.

Just flash the latest firmware for your device at http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0
Then accept the OTA.
Re-install TWRP.
Hope this works for you too.

So to accept the OTA, did you go through the bootloader/recovery and flash it, or were you able to turn on your phone and accept it? Sorry I don't have his phone on me right now otherwise I would have done it .
Don't flash the full SBF..
boot the phone into fastboot mode... mfastboot erase cache... the reboot the phone. that will remove the OTA zip file from chache and stop the boot loop.
The bootloop is because the phone has TWRP on it rather than stock recovery.
To take the OTA properly, use mfastboot to reflash stock recovery only. Also have him undo any hacks that might have touched system files or the OTA will fail, (mfastboot system will also get /system back to normal)...

We actually just ended up clearing the system cache and that seemed to do the trick .
I incredibly appreciate all the info! If anyone makes this silly mistake, all you need to do is clear the cache and everything works as intended.

I am having this very same problem. My phone just today went into boot loop. Running KangKat on unlocked 1053 with Faux kernel. No boot logo or anything. The phone just vibrates then after 30 seconds or so, it vibrates again. It does this non-stop.
I can plug my phone into USB and the phone's contents come up on my computer, but I can't get the screen to turn on!! Any ideas?

KangKat wtih Faux kernel? So you are not running the stock rom? I'm suprised the actually OTA installed.
I don't know anything about that rom, or kernel to begin to tell you how to fix this situation, short of reflashing your rom

He probably flashed the "Flashable 4.4.2 ZIP" that is flashable through TWRP.
@Globalrebel :
You need to try to get into bootloader (AP Fastboot) mode. Try holding the VOL DOWN while the phone reboots (vibrates). Make sure the phone is unplugged from USB. If you can access fastboot, your best best would probably to flash the entire SBF back to stock.
Always check here first before you do something like trying to flash a stock update on a custom rom. We would have quickly informed you that this is ill-advised.
Good Luck
Ok, so I have held down the power button, and then when vibrating starts, I hold down vol down button. Then, it vibrates 2 times. What now? (Sorry, I'm freaked out as this is my only phones )
How can i check to see if it is actually in Fastboot mode? Since my screen doesn't show ANYTHING at all?
I started up an ADB server and connected my phone and tried "adb devices" but my phone isn't listed.

For manual method, should I copy all the files into the same folder as my mfastboot.exe?

Yes,I suggested manual method in last post. Faster and easier.
Yes extract the sbf to the folder containing mfastboot and fastboot.
The only thing you will do differently is one of the last lines that says carrier vzw, change it to carrier sprint.
Make sure u are using the 4.4.2 sprint sbf.

Its all good. I think the screen just decided to die on me?!?! Which REALLY SUCKS! I'm still in my 1 year warranty policy. After fastbooting the original 4.4.2, will motorola know I did anything to the phone? IE, can they know I flashed anything?

If you unlocked the bootloader they know it. Technically your warranty is void... But they might replace/fix it anyways. Don't mention it and see what happens. Let us know.

Are you using RSDlite? If so, you're getting this error (I think) because the PRODUCT_CONFIGURATION.xml file has instructions for other phone models besides the Turbo in it. If I remember correctly, I got around this by deleting the info for everything not labeled QUARK_VERIZON in this file. However, since RSDlite basically just automates fastboot, a better option is to use fastboot to flash this firmware, in my opinion.
If you decide to flash the firmware this way, place all of the files from the full firmware into the directory that you installed fastboot, and enter the following commands after your phone is plugged into your computer in bootloader mode:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot bootloader.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
<repeat until all sparsechunks are flashed>
fastboot erase ddr
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata (NOTE: this command effectively performs a factory reset, and will erase all of your data)
Then boot, and you will have done everything that RSDlite would have done.
Oh thanks. Good info. Is there a write up on using fastboot anywhere? These forums are pretty poorly maintained and no good stickies anywhere
Edit: Oh, you edited your post. Awesome. Thanks.
The root junky fxz is that for rsd lite when I look at the contents the system image is in several sections and says system.img sparsechunk and has 10 sections. I have never seen this in an fxz. Is this a new way of flashing the system image.

Is it possible for me to relock my bootloader using adb fastboot? I don't want to do it accidentally while messing around with different roms and wiping my way back to stock.
When in fastboot, type "fastboot oem lock" (without the quotations"

Wouldn't that lock the bootloader?
Is it even possible to re-lock?
From what I understand he wants to avoid locking the bootloader...
Edit: nevermind I looked it up... Should have just done that the first time... ("I have seen quite of few people screw up their devices by not knowing what they are doing. So I am making this thread to simply tell people not familiar with fastboot what they should and should not do.
Fastboot oem unlock will unlock your bootloader and do a complete wipe of your device. As far as I know the only way for something to go wrong here is if you're device is low on battery and shuts off during the process. Either plug it in or have a "good" amount of juice left in your battery. To be 100 percent sure plug it in.
Before I get into oem lock IMHO you should only use this command for one thing only. Getting the device ready to send into motorola for the LGT upgrade or a another warranty repair or some sort. When done properly it is completely safe but there is no reason to do to go back to "stock".
Fastboot oem lock. Do not issue this command unless you are absolutely sure you have the correct software on your device. The correct software is what you get from the motodev site for your device. You need the official sofware images for your specific device AND REGION. If it is not released then DO NOT re-lock the device. If you have a OTA installed you will need to flash back to the motodev images first.")

Nope
So is the fastboot flash motoboot bootloader.img just the Motorola "M" splash screen?

No, that is the actual bootloader. The code that manages device startup, takes fastboot commands, and prohibits unsigned images from booting (when locked).
The splash screen is flashed with:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin

So, back to my original question. When flashing back to stock with adb, but wanting to keep my bootloader unlocked, what should I do?

I can only speak from my experience. I was on the KitKat bootloader and used mofo to flash lollipop. I unlocked with sunshine and installed twrp. Then I flashed the lollipop bootloader with the fastboot command . Still unlocked.

I bricked my device after doing some stupid thing, what stock ROM do I get to fix it?

I had installed the latest January patch on my stock ROM Moto One Power XT1942, and after rooting and tinkering, I accidentally put my phone in a bootloop. I tried to get hold of a stock ROM image but I only found ROMs with November patch, and comments warning me to not downgrade. So what do I do? Can anyone provide me with a January updated stock ROM?
If your phone is defined in the device manager as COM port 9008, you can restore it according to this instruction.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/guide-how-to-unbrick-moto-z-hardbricked-t3590133
The file 'blank-flash.bat' can be taken in the folder "mbm-ci", the cat will be in the unpacked firmware.
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/chef/official/RETAIL/fastboot_chef_oem_user_9_PPT29.74-25_64be_release-keys-cid50_oem.tar.gz
After installing this file, the phone will be able to boot into fastboot.
After that, you can restore the phone by flashing the same downloaded firmware using the method described here.

You did not "Brick" your device per se. Probably some improper file was flashed. If you have not wiped your phone, you can just simple try to fastboot flash the stock boot image. It may solve the issue. If not then do a clean flash to either the stock ROM or any custom ROM from this AFH link.
Note that the Custom ROMs are still in beta due to a VoLTE issue and thus are not released on XDA Dev DB yet. They are safe to flash though and are stable if you do not need VoLTE.
You can also ask for more help at the official telegram channel for the device.

I thank you very much for your help. I was able to successfully flash the stock firmware from the link you provided. I only have a small question. The stock ROM zip, is it updated after every security patch OTA update?

Yes, the complete firmware file is different with every new build released. You can install OTA with the current fastboot flashed stock ROM but provided it has to be "FULLY STOCK". Else the update will fail.

Did you install any third party app or it happens by itself? I had the same problem but i was messing around with the moto app launcher. Anyhow, try flashing this stock rom with latest june security patch. Don't use TWRP, it is a full rom. Use Fastboot mode. Also backup your device, if you want your files back. This will do a clean install of the rom.
Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lLmDvX4R4o2Jqrhp1RQflap27jxe4hXS/view
Steps:
1) Boot your device into fastboot mode
2) Open flashall.bat and wait for flashing
3) Reboot

Phone bricked after installing arrow is on p30 note xt1942-1
I tried the blankflash method but not working, I'm getting I/O error

No I installed Chinese v2.27.... Well it's absolute mess like I never seen Android before. Then attempted to flash global again, problems to the point of corruption. I have fastboot flashed all key elements of working Android phone multiple times. Can only get to fastboot after boot screen that I have to do manually. Recovery system is toast.... Guess it's back to Poco F1.... Learned my lesson from junk.

Every time you restart back to the bootloader you need to do: "fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J" first

if you stuck in the Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot and you are in the Chinese or global rom then flash the stock boot image via adb. well I am using a Chinese v2.27 rom with rooted +gapps and then realized that most of the google apps wont work correctly because of the unlocked bootloader. I tried to lock the bootloader via adb then the message "Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" show up. so I try to use adb to flash the stock boot image then it work. first place the stock boot image to the "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" folder which located in the local drive under program file(x86) then run the command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

Bud I put so much effort in last 13 hours to no avail....fastboot erased all partitions, reformatted, reflashed to no avail. Right now it just boots loops on Chinese 2.27 boot splash, I do have Chinese recovery though, but the same otg adapter and pen drive that works on 5 different devices, this damn phone won't read it so even that is out of the question. I wipe my hands clean of it, some things just best to put a bullet through it.

No BS, all I did was flash CN 2.27 over NA Global, after a look at the mess it was I proceeded to flash NA Global back.....no TWRP No Root with SuperSU or Magisk. But in fastboot it does say Root=1, so I guess the CN 2.27 rooted it by default cause I sure as hell didn't. One thing that is bothering me while in fastboot unlock bootloader I can't turn Secure Boot off which I believe is why it won't boot system.

all you need to do is to fix the corrupt image so later once you finish the first step of booting to the phone then you can flash to global rom. if you have the cn version 2.27 boot.img then you can download the adb and use the command to fix the phone
Shouldn't have messed with something that wasn't broken. Now you have a nice brick to use as a paperweight. Hope you get it fixed tho. Good luck.
