Hi guys,
I unlocked bootloader of my moto e 2nd gen 3g model,
again i relocked bootloader, not it gives following message
"invalid system image", so i hav to unlock bootloader again, to avoid this
Can any one please help me over this
When the bootloader is locked, it will not boot unless the ROM is properly signed and unmodified. Follow the return to stock procedure and reflash the signed Motorola ROM for it to boot with a locked bootloader. I don't know if the stock images are yet available for your model (3G). If they aren't, you will have to live with an unlocked bootloader for now.

1) Firmware is the Android system itself, so bootloader will be unlocked.
2) I don't know Sony Xperia U, but in HTC devices there is a text label "Locked" or "Unlocked" in newer bootloaders.
3) You have to unlock the bootloader only once. Flashing roms doesn't affect the bootloader itself.
I tried to install android 6.0 XT1521 without unlocking the bootloader, and as it was an official rom motorola believed that would be possible. However it did not work and since I have not unlocked the bootloader, I can not go back to the retail XT1523 stock ROM
I was able to flash gpt.bin and bootloader.img, but things went south on boot.img. Now the bootloader is stuck with the following error:
Code:
version downgraded for boot
failed to validate boot image
Trying to flash boot.img (or system) fails with error:
Code:
hab check failed for boot
Failed to verify hab image boot
Trying to go back to XT1523 ROM fails with:
Code:
version downgraded for aboot
Trying to unlock the bootloader fails with:
Code:
Enable OEM Unlock
Which is obvious because I haven't enabled it on the phone, but it sucks because I can't boot and enable it.
So, here goes my questions:
- What does the "hab check failed" means? Is there any way to bypass it and finish flashing the XT1521 ROM?
- Is there any way to unlock the bootloader without enabling it first on developer settings?
- Is there anything I can do other than waiting that 6.0 gets rolled to XT1523 phones, and that a stock ROM for it gets leaked?
Thanks a lot for your kindly help!
Hello, I'm trying to flash stock firmware on the Moto E, Model number is XT1023, and my device won't boot. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed the software, but it's still showing that bootloader warning screen and not booting to OS. I was wondering if this had anything to do with it. When I tried to flash the gpt.bin it cam back with an error saying preflash validation failed. But it's weird because the bootloader's unlocked already.
Use this guide
http://dev-viraj.blogspot.in/2015/02/flash-official-android-444-on-moto-e.html
But plz Download the firmware for XT1023 from here http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f78...-x-x-5-x-x-stock-firmware-flash-tool-2003127/ instead of link in guide.

hi, i have a moto e 1st gen with stuck boot logo and try to unlock the bootloader but got an error, other than that, I do not remember had associated google account and not to do if there is another method for flashing stock no longer leaves me to go to recovery
anyone?
stock images can be flashed on locked bootloader.
Try.
other wise what error you got ? while unlocking
the title basically says it all. I locked the bootloader post flashing TWRP. now attempts to unlock the bootloader lead to a success message in the terminal but checking the bootloader shows me that the bootloader hasn't unlocked.
solved the problem by flashing stock recovery .img via twrp and then unlocking bootloader
