I downloaded CWM for Moto G from clockworkmod's rom manager site. My intent was to backup the entire phone, including the ISP's ROM, before rooting or even unlocking the bootloader. I didn't know whether I could avoid unlocking the bootloader, but I was going try backing up without flashing to the device to see if it would let me. I put the phone in fastboot mode by holding down the power button and volume-down for 10 seconds. Then I issued the following from the command line (I'm using cygwin's bash shell, and the directory containing fastboot is in $PATH):
$fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-falcon.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.310s]
booting...
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.313s
Is this the symptom of not having unlocked the bootloader?
P.S. I want to back up the phone rather than get an ISP's stock from online.
BUMP.
Anyone?

Yes, an unlocked bootloader is a requirement for being able to install a custom recovery on those phones, and most every Android device with a few exceptions. Keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader will reset the phone as well.

Thanks, es0tericcha0s. I think I need to clarify: For the backup, I just want to "soft" boot CWM, I don't want to flash it to the phone. I want to back up the phone in its entirety with as little modification to it as possible. Is this possible without unlocking the bootloader?

I'm not sure if you need the bootloaders unlocked to just fastboot boot recovery, but I would think you still would need to. It'll either work or just reboot the phone normally so very little risk of anything bad happening were you to try it. From a couple threads I found, the ability to do that also depends on which bootloader you have (4.3 or 4.4.2) and the recovery img as well.

Interesting. It neither soft boots to the img file nor does it reboot. It simply fails.

How does one find the bootloader version? Turning off the device and holding Power + VolumeDown for 10 seconds leads to a "fastboot" mode, which has a version number that is very different from the bootloader versions that you cited:
> AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
> 41.13(*) (sha-7dc8e78, 2014-06-1616:33:29)
The image I'm trying to soft boot is recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-falcon.img.

You'll know which bootloader you're on by which update you're on. 4.3 or 4.4.2, but I just don't think it'll work without unlocking the bootloader regardless. You realize that besides wiping the data (which you can back up most of it other ways anyway...)that unlocking the bootloader makes no other changes to the operating system so if you were to do that and and then, once you perform a nandroid backup, you'll have a copy of an unaltered OS?

I'm on 4.4.4.
I suspected that the OS is not changed by unlocking the bootloader. I just wanted to delay the warranty-voiding step of unlocking the bootloader until as far along the process as possible, in case I got cold feet after doing the full backup of the entire phone. Looks like I can't delay it until after the backup. Ah well, it's only a $150 phone.
Funny, though, the error indicates that it's downloading boot.img. Almost as if it was interpreting the 1st parameter as the boot image instead of a fastboot command. That's now how fastboot is suppose to work.

Might try it with the Motorola fastboot files: mfastboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2427667&d=1385958280
same commands, just do "mfastboot" vs "fastboot"
But the "downloading...." part is not uncommon. Found references in various threads.
Looks like mfastboot doesn't work either. Same results. Next step: Unlock bootloader.....
Afternote: It worked! At the shell on the PC:
> $ fastboot oem unlock FLRPKG3ZYPCPLOBYXY3T
> ...
> (bootloader) Unlock code = FLRPKG3ZYPCPLOBYXY3T
> (bootloader) Unlock completed! Wait to reboot
> FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
> finished. total time: 20.842s
The device rebooted into fastboot mode with the following details:
> <...snip...>
> Device is unlocked. Status Code: 3
> <...snip...>
> Fastboot Reason: UTAG *flashfail* configured as fastboot
> USB connected
I'm not too worried about the "status read failed" because others have encountered it [google "Rooting my Moto E out of the box (step by step)"]. Also, I'm not going to worry about the "UTAG *flashfail*" message just yet.
UNFORTUNATELY...
...booting CWM without flashing to the Moto G does not work:

> downloading 'boot.img'...

The device simply boots up as normal.

Hello all!
In an effort to try and help Boost Mobile users out, I have put together a stock restore guide for the Moto E 2015. There are other versions of a stock firmware guide, but those are for GSM and others not using CDMA. Here you will find steps to restore your Boost Mobile Moto E!
First off, I am NOT responsible for damaging your phone or any user error. USE THIS GUIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
If you are here reading this guide, you have either bricked your device or just want to go back to the stock firmware. If you are using a custom recovery such as TWRP, any saved nandroid backups will be lost if saved on internal storage. This will factory load 5.0.2 Lollipop fresh out of the box the day you got your phone!
Firstly, you will need ABD and Fastboot and Motorola Device Manager. You can download Motorola Device Manager directly from here.
I have attached ABD and Fastboot to this post for download.
To use ABD and Fastboot, you will need to make a new folder and extract the zip to the new folder and name it fastboot. From there, you will need to launch a command window from that folder. The easiest way to do this is to to have that folder selected and Shift/right click and "Open command window here". From there, if you have done this right, you will have a command prompt window ready to go!
After you have setup your new folder with ABD and Fastboot, you are ready to load the stock firmware to your Moto E! Download link is here
After you have downloaded your stock firmware, double check to make sure you have XT1526_Updated_SURNIA_BOOST_5.0.2_LXI22.50-14.6_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Extract the contents of the file you downloaded to the folder where you put your ABD and Fastboot in.
Once you have everything ready to go, power down your phone and put it in bootloader mode. Hold power and volume down for a few seconds and you are there. Attach your USB cable from your PC to the phone and be ready to load several lines of code. Flash these codes in order. Copy and paste if you like in to your command prompt, one line at a time!
Code:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
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 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 modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot oem config carrier
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
Once you have done this, restart your phone and wait a few minutes for the boot sequence to start. If you have done this right, your phone will be factory fresh with the stock firmware on it!
If I was able to help out, hit thanks! :good:
This is my first guide and I had to look everywhere to find out how to do this for Boost variants, and hopefully it is ok for everyone to use!
EDIT: I updated the download link. Sorry about that.
Will this relock bootloader?

No. There are certain steps to relock the bootloader, but it does no good now. You can still OTA with an unlocked bootloader, but as far as factory warranty goes, its void as soon as you unlock it. The only reason you would ever want to relock it is if you were giving the phone to someone who didn't know anything about rooting our phones.... it just doesn't do any good.
Thanks. I may try this, but not until after I flash cyanogen 12. That won't be until they get LTE working on CDMA Boost Mobile variant.
Also, why do you need to have Motorola Device Manager?

Hey, this forum looks really helpful, but unfortunately the stock firmware zip link isn't working for me. Is there any other place that you might suggest getting it from? I do have two of the same phone if it's possible to retrieve the firmware from another one, but I wiped my first one which is why I'm here in the first place. Thanks!
*EDIT: Hey, no worries, I found another file of the same type, but I can't post the link yet. (Follow the Moto E 2015 thread to general to "| Read Before You Flash | Unlock | Restore | Stock Firmware |," follow the link there, and find the other, newer, XT1526 file.) I just installed the drivers, got the minimal adb/fastboot zip, and followed the commands given above. Thanks for your help, everything is fixed now, even my service is back!
Will you provide the link when you can?
I could use a link as well :|
Sitting ducks until i can flash stock back on.

is there any way you could pm me a link to a working xt1526 rom?
Download link is updated.
Does this remove account information and installed apps? Do you have to activate phone with Boost again or no?
Nevermind. I just went for it and the answer is Yes, it removes accounts and installed apps.
And No, you do not have to re-register with Boost Mobile. Full system restore.
Confirm working for Boost Mobile XT1526 CDMA LTE.
Thanks so much for this thread. You're going to save SO many devices!
After flashing this my stock recovery gives me a dead android (on it's back with red triangle) How can I get stock recovery back? Can I flash stick recovery via adb?
Edit: So after further Googling, my understanding is that the red triangle android is supposed to be there... but I've tried all the suggested button presses to get the actual menu to appear. I'm trying to get the menu on the Moto E 2015 CDMA LTE Boost Mobile.
Can someone tell me the actual button combination to get the stock recovery menu to appear?
Edit: OMFG! People are so stupid... I'm going to make my own youtube video and post it for our phones.... All of the guides were wrong!
To enter recovery menu (after android with red triangle is displayed) press and hold power for 3 seconds, then tap the volume up once.
I will post a video on how to do this for moto e 2015 CDMA XT1526. Hope this helps anyone else who was confused/concerned about their stock recovery partition not working after flashing back to pure stock.
Edit: Here's the video of how to access the contextual menu of Recovery on the Moto E 2015 4G LTE CDMA Boost Mobile variant (XT1526)

You're entering the commands incorrectly. For example, the first command in your example should be "fastboot erase modemst1", not "fastboot erase D:\ADB\XT1526\modemst1". Enter the commands as shown in the first post of this thread.
Brainfart bigtime. Thanks for the catch. I'm going to get the tire pump for a refill.
If you do this after updating to 5.1 ota will the phone still work correctly?
Meaning you will be back to stock recovery, stock system, stock firmware, and Android 5.1 OS?

Hi, back again
As i can see, try not to mess with the names :revocery...
When you want to flash the boot.img don't change that name.
Just flash it like : fastboot flash boot boot.img
Use my last boot.img which i sent you. That's a good one out of my backup.
For the FRP (perhaps edit your thread tiltle ) i have no answer in a minute. Did the "fastboot oem unlock" gave anything better ?

the same issue
Good day, i have the same issue on my p9 EVA-L19.
FRP lock. And i can't do anything...
My warranty says that they cannot recover data from the phone, but the information is very important. I need to unlock FRP and somehow boot into TWRP or something to recover my data.
Please help someone if you had a same issue and results.
For the Huawei Y6 you can return to Stock.
Try to fastboot boot recovery-twrp.img and put your stock firmware (dload) folder to the rootdir at your sdcard.
Reboot your device to bootloader and hold down vol+ + vol- and use the command: fastboot boot stockrecovery.img (keep the keys pressed until the stock recovery comes up and starts installing your stock rom.
You will see an emui logo and the recovery will install the complete stock rom if you did everything right.
Retry to boot the stock recovery with this way if it is not working at the first try.
EDIT: after i wiped /system and and all the other stuff i was able to flash stock recovery via fastboot.

When i try any command getting this error :
Code:

Try to do:
fastboot boot recovery.img
This will boot up the device with the given image. With that you can put a custom rom to your sd-card and flash it.
I will upload a Nandroid (stock system, recovery, boot) from my Y6 SCL-L01 soon.
With that you can restore boot and recovery with twrp. For this way you don't need to have a frp unlock.
Procedure:
fastboot boot recovery-twrp.img
Put your stock firmware (dload folder) to the sdcard.
Put my Nandroid to your sdcard.
Restore my Nandroid, reboot your device with Vol+ and Vol- pressed.
This way only works for SCL-L01 up to SCL-L04.
I need to create an extra recovery.img that includes a dt image that fits for all SCL variants.
Work in progress...
I have just removed frp today, but its not free method, unfortunately
Everytime I type the command 'fastboot oem unlock', the screen says;
OKAY [ 0.002s]
finished. total time: 0.002s
but then when I want to flash a recovery it says;
target reported max download size of 1073741824 bytes

OKAY [ 0.498s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Device not unlocked cannot flash or erase)<<< Why does this happen? -_-
finished. total time: 0.501s
Anybody has a solution for this?
Have you tried just flashing stock recovery? Does it say that for everything you try and flash? A lot of people are trying these shortcuts to try and upgrade bootloader. Though most can work the safest bet is to flash original stock recovery and upgrade from there. You might be looking at going through the hard brick guide.
seems like you locked the bootloader while you are rooted...iam stack on same step too...

But everything else works. And yeah, I did try flashing the stock recovery too
Fastboot oem unlock>fastboot reboot>doesn't ask about wiping
I've followed every tutorial they all say that after requesting oem unlock, you can verify the unlock was successful with fastboot oem devices-info> device tampered-false, device unlock-true, then fastboot reboot> system reboot, but it does NOT ask to wipe the data. Am I missing something?

Not necessarly.
If it 's device unlock-true , you're OK. If not...
My bootloader is unlocked. I used LG Bridge to update to 20A. Now I cannot get root back. I boot into fastboot. Flashing TWRP seems to work, but I cannot get into it. I'm aware that I have to boot directly into TWRP after flashing for it to stick (or it will be overwritten with stock recovery). I've tried fastboot commands to boot (see below). I've also tried the volume down button combo to boot to recovery, which gets me to the prompts about erasing data, but No exits and Yes prompts x 2 never boots to TWRP. It doesn't load it at all. I've re-downloaded TWRP to be sure I didn't have a bad file.

I've read in forums about other devices that folks lost some Fastboot commands after an update, but the instructions are device specific. Is anyone else having this issue after updating to stock 20A Nougat? Does anyone have any ideas? Many thanks!
EDIT: New problem!
I had this issue before when it reported as unlocked:

So, now I'm at a complete loss.
So flash recovery and remove the battery and boot by following steps
1. Press and hold (at the same time) the Power and the Volume Down buttons until the LG Logo is being displayed on your G5
2. Next, release the power button for only a moment and then press it again (keep holding)
3. Keep pressing the buttons until the recovery mode menu is displayed
4. Answer both questions with "YES" (no worry won't reset your phone as described) and then TWRP should boot
5. Now swipe to allow modifications in TWRP
Bonus step:
6. Format DATA partition (note format not wipe) and flash SuperSU

Thanks. I was aware of the clicking YES twice, but when I do that, it never gets to TWRP. That was the behavior before my new issue (noted above, showing questionable bootloader unlock).
your bootloader is already unlocked
why do you try to flash unlock again?
anyway, the key combination should work
just tested...
you just have to get the proper timing
using a H850 variant

I did this when the 'fastboot getvar unlock' command no longer showed 'yes' status.

I agree that it SHOULD work, and yet it doesn't. It isn't a timing issue--I get to the wipe data prompts and click yes, but it doesn't load into TWRP after that. I'm doing this immediately after flashing recovery per the instructions.

That's great, thanks! I'll give it a try. The TeamWin site shows 3.0.2 is the latest. Are you using a version for the S7 (or other device)? Any chance you could post the version that you used?

Thanks for that resource!
Hello guys...
So, without going too much into details of how I idiotically f-ed up pretty much everything... I just want to say that I've already lost about 12 hours reading through the forum trying to solve the problem and to understand how everything works, and by what I understood... I bricked the phone?
Firstly, I managed to unlock the bootloader with the HCU Client (Phone unlocked, FRP unlocked). At some points I've managed to boot into TWRP's, but I flashed them without understanding that I should have installed the recommended ones by the guys on this forum instead of the official one, with which I wiped System and Data partition.
I've tried hard but never managed to boot any of the Custom ROMs available, especially the LineageOS 16 which I wanted but later on, through a specific TWRP which gave an error information that it's meant for Hisilicon, and not for Kirin SoC...
I also had no idea when I was booting into recovery, and when into erecovery, because I flashed TWRP over both of them... I have really no idea what was the last thing to happen, but now it seems as if I can't boot into eRecovery anymore, and whatever I try flashing to the recovery_ramdisk over Fastboot, I just always get the same error when trying to boot into recovery
Error! Func NO : 11 (recovery image)
Error NO : 2 (load failed!)
Now I'm also having an issue because my battery has drained and it doesn't seem to turn on without it being connected to the charger or a PC.
Is there anything that I can do to make it work with any Custom ROM?

In fastboot mode run commands:

Alf is right:
Gather info about your phone with the fastboot commands -Alf- provided.
Using this info, find TWRP that 100% supports your phone. TWRP that is recommended in the "p20 lite basics" thread on XDA.
Start phone in fastboot mode. Use the fastboot boot twrp.img command to TEMPORARILY boot into TWRP (twrp.img must be in the same folder as fastboot.exe)
If TWRP hangs, reboot, try another TWRP
Once you are in TWRP, perform wipe and advanced wipe to clean up EVERY PARTITION (except sdcard) that you've messed up in the internal memory.
wipe data again to enable USB file transfer
Find a ROM for your phone. USE THE INFO FROM STEP 1 to figure out if the rom is REALLY for your model AND hardware revision of the phone. Pay attention to the device serial number and codename! ROMS developers use device codenames to indicate what model is compatible and what isnt. Huawei p20 lite has a total of 7(!!!) hardware revisions, and ROMS for each are different and likely NOT cross-compatible, which means if you install the wrong one, you will end up with a brick or a bootloop.
While TWRP is still on, Transfer ROM.zip to the phone.
In TWRP, use "Install" option to flash the ROM.
DO NOT FLASH TWRP PERMANENTLY! LET THE STOCK RECOVERY BE. FLASHING TWRP TO A/B (DUAL SLOT) DEVICES WILL 99% RESULT IN A BOOTLOOP. MOST MODERN DEVICES ARE A/B.
Flash Gapps if you need.
Reboot. Will take longer to start on the first boot.

I see. Some phones have this issue. where bootloader will not allow the "boot" command. Can be for a number of reasons:
1. Bootloader isnt "fully" unlocked, please check with the unlocking guide/service provider (if unlock was a paid service)
2. Bootloader is in "retail" mode, not a "service" mode. Some manufacturers do not intend for bootloader to be unlocked, and ship the devices with a restricted "retail" version that blocks certain commands.
also, why is your fastboot sending the "boot.img" while the command had " twrp img" as a payload?
I take it the bootloader still lets you use the "flash" command? If true, flash TWRP temporarily by "fastboot flash boot twrp.img", restart teh phone using the recovery menu keycombo

No, there is only one reason - on Huawei devices we do not have a "boot" partition since Android 7.

Thank you, I've put them in blender and set it to "lightspeed" mode
I'm sorry, but flashing that TWRP gives me the exact error I've been getting before when trying to boot into Recovery... the fact that the phone can't charge also gives some headache to actually even try to boot into the recovery. I just can't get into.
Edit: The furthest I can get to is that recovery error message.
hi there..was reading about your problem..i'm not sure if the same rules apply to all or most phones with regards to flashing twrp or using fastboot..i'm assuming that they do.
So, are you able to boot into fastboot and/or recovery?
if no to recovery, i guess it may be the wrong twrp, i hope you can at least boot into fastboot without any issues.
Personally i had a xiaomi poco f2 pro 6/128 and then i bought another same model phone but 8/256 from a fellow who almost bricked his phone..it was just blinking, when i restarted the phone, it went straight into blinking whenever i tried to boot into recovery, and it wouldnt boot into system anyway cos there was nothing there. so i figured it was stuck in recovery loop.
i was fortunate that i was able to hook up to it using my pc...then using command prompt, i was able to switch to fastboot mode..then i tried downloading and flashing different twrps, over 10 different twrps, and finally one worked..then it was smooth sailing from then on..and presto, that became my daily use phone.

Can you boot into eRecovery (into TWRP installee over eRecovery)? If so, try to flash eRecovery_ramdisk.img in TWRP,
download Here for EMUI 9.1
or Here for 8.0 (I'm not sure what is your current version).
In eRecovery mode you can charge the phone ( charging should also work in TWRP which is installed instead of eRecovery).

I can boot to the Fastboot, but unfortunately I can't boot to either recovery or erecovery... When trying to boot to the recovery by holding the power+volume up button until I see the "Your device has been unlocked" warning message + 2 seconds (which is when I see the recovery error message), or when trying to boot while plugged into USB also holding the power+volume up button just leaves me at "Your device is booting now...." forever

I've tried both, they give me the same error.
After I flash the recovery I can't really reboot straight into recovery because of the issue with the battery... somehow I gotta hold the Volume UP key, while catching exact moment when I can unplug USB after the low battery status page passes, and before Huawei logo appears...
After unlocking the phone I flashed TWRP over either recovery or erecovery (idk anymore)... then I probably installed Pixel Experience 13 ROM (https://github.com/ponces/treble_build_pe/releases)
And after that... I tried too many things I can't even remember anymore.
