Unbrick Your Moto G On 5.0



If you messed up and your Moto G is bootlooping, don't panic! XDA
Senior Member has a guide that will help you easily unbrick
your device in a pinch. Then you can enjoy Lollipop as if nothing ever
happened.

First of all don't panic. There is a solution for your soft bricked moto G.

NOTE- This method is used for soft bricked moto g.
Soft Brick- When your device is in a bootloop and it can boot into bootloader or fastboot.
Hard Brick- When your device is complete gone and it doesn't even boots.

Now flash the Brazilian Kitkat 4.4.4 using this way :-
NOTE- Dont flash or restore your previous backup of 4.4.2! It will brick your device!
Brazilian kitkat 4.4.4 link-http://www.mediafire.com/download/5c...FF_SVC.xml.zip
Download mfastboot -https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4PT...9EV2lGcWs/edit
Extract mfastboot and the brazilian 4.4.4 in the same folder and open command prompt in that folder. ( press ctrl+shift+right click- open command line here)

Connect your moto g to pc in fastboot mode.
In the command prompt flash 4.4.4 using the following commands :-

mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot

Remember- Flash using the following commands only as they have skipped bootloader and partition table file of kitkat or you would HARD-BRICK your device.

Now let it boot. The screen would be flickering after the boot. Dont panic . Now after the boot has finished. Transfer moto g brazilian update to your phone and reboot into recovery. Place in on the root of your sdcard.

Now reboot into recovery and apply update from sdcard. Wait for 7-12 mins.

Congratulations! You have unbricked your moto g!
