Cwm is not supported. Flash twrp
About .img file, it's CyanogenMod recovery. There is no need to flash that .IMG file which you downloaded from cm website. Just flash twrp

Nope. Well, first make a backup from cwm for safety

Download the app "twrp manager" from playstore
Open the app
Grant superuser acces
Select an device (moto e, not moto e 2015)
Install and wait
When the process is finished you can reboot to recovery and flash cyanogenmod 13
This method is totally safe
And you need flash gapps if you want the playstore and other apps of google, use open gapps project

I went into cwm recovery mode and selected backup, but it failed i think because of low storage in my phone which was 699 mb!
and now my internal storage is running out of space! i only have uc browser, supersu, rom manager installed in my phone! should i factory reset my phone?

You could have backed it up in external storage. Anyways, you may do factory reset but all your data will be deleted.
Or you may try to free up at least 100 mb by clearing cache and deleting unnecessary data so that you can install flashify and flash twrp from it.

This process is fully safe bro and the cwm recovery dont are supported anymore by cyanogenmod and is abandoned, if you want install cyanogenmod 13 install twrp 3.0.2
And if something brick your device, it can be fixed easy

thanks guys i'll let ya know if i got success

this dont brick the device, the changes are aplied to the recovery partition, doesn`t make changes to boot.img partition or system partition, its 100% safe.
And twrp is best, cwm are abandoned by their comunity and dont are supported by too much roms
sorry for my english

Thanks guys, successfully installed cm 13, but now I'm facing a problem, i flashed gapps zip and now Google play services is now showing "unfortunately Google play services has been stopped" gave all the permissions! But still it's coming again and again! I'm not able to track my location in Google maps!!!!!

Sorry for this question but I do not have any customization on my XS. I have copied the CWM.ZIP and ROM.ZIP files on SD card. Could you please suggest how can I flash ROM.ZIP as I do not have any custom recovery installed.
p.s. The bootlocker is also locked.

This is a fix only for who is installing custom ROMs without custom kernel. To install recovery, search for it.
I have had a problem, after flashing Rom, before flashing your zips I wiped cache, and started this problem in recovery:
Can't mount CACHE/recovery/log
then after flashing your zips phone stuck reboting at logo sony, so I have to start from zero, do you know why have that ocurred, is it because wiping cache?

for the xperia sspeed rom for example, you can also use the stock kernel, but why can't i use it for cm10?
That's a stock based rom so you can use the stock kernel. Whereas CM10 is AOSP based so many things in the Kernel are different for example Wi-Fi modules as well as other things

Hi. Here is the link for latest TWRP for ROW edition.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3391260&d=1436077810
After download go to recovery 2.7.1.1 and install from there. DO NOT WIPE.
To flash ROW firmware watch carefuly for the one with ROW mark. Do not flash the ones with CN mark.
Flashing is relatively simple.
1. Download your desired firmware.
2. Copy that zip file on your sd card
3. Reboot in recovery or download one reboot to recovery app from google market and give root rights. That kind of app is mutch better for rebooting directly in recovery.
4. In TWRP go to backup. NOT OPTIONAL. And do a full backup.
5. Now after full backup go to wipe and swipe to wipe.
6. After wipe go to install.
7. Install your firmware.
8 Reboot and wait to firmware to install. This will take longer then usual. Do not be scared.
9. Good Luck.

SuperSU binary update issues

I had flashed cm13 in my moto e and installed superSU. When i open superSU , it asks me to select the method to update the binary. I chose "normal". It failed. And asked me to try again after reboot. That too failed. Due to this issue i am unable to use foldermount . Is there any solution?

Use version 2.65 or 2.67 (BETA) - It will use the system-less install (means it can be uninstalled from the Apps list).
Also when you flash the new nightlies, be sure to flash the SuperSU zip in recovery again, or else the error which u said earlier might crop up again.
NB: Do Not click on update binaries (normal or any other method, because that might cause issues which prevents the device from booting... I know this, because I myself have faced such problems earlier)
Bootloop while flashing superSU update zip
I tried flashing UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip using TWRP(checked mount-> system)
which made the device in the bootloop. Then i had to restore my backup to unbrick the device. So can you explain step by step how to update su binary?

Super SU 2.46 was built only for Lollipop ROMs.
Use SuperSU 2.65 or higher
Steps to install after a clean flash of the ROM:
In the Recovery, flash the SuperSU zip
First the phone will boot incompletely (not for all users though), then will boot normally... don't be afraid
You're done!!!
Steps to be followed while flashing new nightlies:
DON'T update automatically from CM Updater
Download the new zip of CM 13, and go to recovery
Wipe Dalvik/ART Cache and Cache only (Nohting else)
Flash the ROM
Flash the SuperSU zip
You're ready to reboot to the new nightly
Hope this helps

You should have read the rom thread instead of creating a new thread for this. Solution is there: boot to recovery manually, search for the zip file and flash.

there's no flashing option on stock recovery.
Only at TWRP (or other custom recovery) Flash directly from there.
Rooting has nothin to do with it.

Oh, that error means the ROM might be faulty or you're flashing the wrong one.
Be ensure of the ROM first.
Redownload and check.
