XT1072 bootloop after replacing screen - Moto G 2014 LTE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
my friend has replaced the screen of his XT1072. Now the phone is stuck in a bootloop. He has never experimented with custom ROMs etc., so the developer options are disabled (no ADB, no unlock allowed). I can access the bootloader (locked, status 0) and connect via fastboot. Here is what I have tried so far:
select the "Recovery" option of the bootloader: immediately reboots into bootloop
fastboot oem unlock: not allowed (developer option not set)
flash CWM: Preflash validation failed
flash stock rom (as described here): Preflash validation failed
Are there typical hardware issues (forgotten connectors etc.) when replacing the screen of this phone? I don't know if it is a software problem, but what I find quite confusing is that the "Recovery" option of the bootloader does not do anything - not even before I tried the flashing stuff.
Any other ideas how I can get this thing running?
EDIT: I finally managed to flash the stock image. First I tried with fastboot on linux, then with mfastboot on windows. I also tried different images - probably the "Preflash validation failed" error was because of a wrong image. Still bootlooping and recovery option functionless.

Stuck at start of boot after flash-all.bat flash from android M preview

This time I tried the flash-all.bat file. I did not notice big problems during the flashing process, (it mentioned missing .sig files). When flash-all.bat finished, I scrolled up to Recovery using the volume keys, hit the power key, and the screen changed to the first part of the boot sequence, the black screen with Google at the top and a small unlocked lock sign at the bottom... And there it has set for the past hour
It does not seem to connect to the usb port anymore, so I don't know where I go from here.
I have flashed factory images on my Nexus 6 several times, including each of the recent developer previews. I always used the fastboot commands. The bootloader is unlocked; the phone is not rooted, it was running preview 3.
Uh, what next?
OK, I got back to the bootloader.
Now when I try to flash the files one at a time, I get:
Motobootreflash validation for aboot
preflash validation failed
failed remote failure
I tried to upgrade from Android M preview 3 to 6.0 Marshmallow using the flash-all.bat.
There were error messages and the phone would not boot into recovery.
I went back to fastboot to flash files one at a time.
When I try to flash bootloader it fails with the "Preflash validation error" message.
Is this telling me that I can't flash the bootloader because it was already flashed during the (unsuccessful) flash-all.bat?
Can I flash the other files to get the phone back to working order?
I was on preview 3 and used flash-all.bat to go to the official 6.0 image. No issues on my end, the missing boot sig message is normal, phone took about 5 min but booted up clean. You might want to try downloading the factory image again, maybe it was partially corrupted? Should be recoverable since you can still get into the bootloader and access fastboot.
Update: I kept trying to reflash changing one thing at a time, until I finally tried my old, tired laptop with an old fastboot.exe on it.
With the old software on the old computer, Marshmallow flashed normally using the command line.

hi guys have made an absolute mess of this
heres what i did manged to install TWRP / Superu / unlock bootloader and root the phone with no issues
decided i wanted to go back to stock so via TWRP i flashed the stock image
that left me at stock - BUT bootloader still locked
so I went in and enabled USB debugging and FORGOT to tick the allow oem lock option
did an mfastboot oem lock - and it said success
then i did fastboot reboot - this where it failed
saying "boot up failed - failed to validate system image
but it was the corrrect image as of this thread

Currently it says "failed to validate system image"
and on next line
"Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode"

that can get me back on the road to stock firmware again ?

Just unlock it... There's no point of locking it again.

XT1563 bricked?? Forgot to unlock OEM in dev options

long story short, my relative came to me for help after he decided to install a new ROM and made a simple error of forgetting about the OEM unlock option in the settings menu beforehand. an error occurred along the way and he tried to go back to stock. now when the phone boots it goes into the bootloader (which is locked) and gives a start up failed message saying to use Software Repair Assistant.
trying to go into recovery gives a
Code:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode [Secure]
Fastboot Reason: UTAG *bootmode* configured as fastboot
failed to validate system image
ERROR : Failed to pass validation. backup to fastboot
Boot up failed
i tried flashing TWRP but its giving errors too. are there any known workarounds to unlocking the bootloader or forcing a recovery/twrp to work?
thanks, all

Help. Can't reset phone or flash twrp/anything after bad firmware update!

So recently I updated my phone using the Firmware Finder but flashed an NRD90M Test-Keys. Read about it and the only way to fix it is to flash twrp and flash another firmware. Tried to flash twrp but got an 'FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)' error. So that didn't work and I tried to factory reset my phone using the stock recovery but that gets stuck on 7/10% and it then gives me an error. (Just a big red '!' mark and says Failed.)
And after the failed reset the phone doesn't have a keyboard. Only the voice typing from google. So trying to even set up the phone makes it a pain in the ass.
I can get into fastboot but trying to flash anything gives me the (Failed (Remote: Command not allowed) error.
My phone is unlocked. It only says that FRP is Locked.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
