Restore Moto G 2014 to Stock and Lock the Bootloader

Rakesh | 14 Sep 2014 | Motorola/ ROMs

Following the great success of the original Moto G, the best-seller for Motorola, the company has now released the 2nd generation of the phone. The Moto G is known for offering outstandingย features and performance at an incredible price and this factor is the greatest reason behind its success.

The new Moto G brings exciting improvements over its predecessor and sports aย 5.0-inch (720 x 1280) HD display,ย 1GB RAM,ย 1.2 GHzย Qualcomm Snapdragon 400ย Quad-core processor, microSD slot,ย 8MP primary and 2MP secondary camera andย 2070 mAh battery. The phone comes with the latest Android 4.4.4 out of the box.

The Moto G 2014 is already available and if you have already got hold of it, bookmark thisย tutorial for future reference. Today, we’ll give a detailed guide about how you can restoreย Moto G 2014 to stock firmware and lock its bootloader in case you have already unlocked it. Suppose you have a rooted Moto G and you have also installed a custom recovery, you might get into a situation at some point of time when you’ll have to flash the official firmware to recover your phone. By installing the stock firmware, you can unroot your device and return to stock recovery.

Disclaimer

The method described below has been tested. However, we do not hold any responsibility for a happy ending in all cases. Just follow the guide carefully and at your own risk.

Getting Prepared

  • Download the 2nd Gen. Moto G (XT1063 / XT1064 / XT1068 / XT1069) firmware from here.
  • Download mini fastboot kit:ย ย mfastboot-v2.zipย 
  • Download and install Motorola USB Driversย (alternate link)ย your computer.
  • Enable USB Debugging on your Moto G 2014: go to Settings> About and tab Build version 7 times to unlock Developer options. The go to Settings> Developer options and enable USB Debugging.
  • Backup your apps and data as flashing the firmware would wipe them all. Use these appsย backup your data.
  • Last but not the least, charge your phone to ensure at least 70% battery.

Restore Moto G 2014 to Stock

  1. Download the firmware file and extract it to a folder.
  2. Extractย mfastboot-v2.zip and copy its content to the same folder where the extracted firmware files exist.
  3. Reboot your Moto G into the Bootloader Mode. You can do it using either of the methods given below:
    • Turn off your phone and then press and hold the Volume Down + Power buttons simultaneously for a few seconds.
    • Connect your Moto Gย to computer using the USB cable. Open the firmware folder where you have copied the mfastboot files. Launch a command window, type the following command and press the Enter key:
      adb reboot-bootloader
  4. Now here is how to flash the stock firmware. Make sure the device is connected via USB cable and launch a command window from inside the firmware folder and type the following commands one by one:
    mfastboot oem lock begin
    mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
    mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
    mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
    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 system system.img_sparsechunk.3
    mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
    mfastboot erase modemst1 
    mfastboot erase modemst2 
    mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
    mfastboot erase cache 
    mfastboot erase userdata
  5. If you own the Indian Moto G 2014ย XT1068, try the following command instead:
    mfastboot.exe oem lock begin
    mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
    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 system system.img_sparsechunk.3
    mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
    mfastboot erase modemst1 
    mfastboot erase modemst2 
    mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
    mfastboot erase cache 
    mfastboot erase userdata
    mfastboot oem lock
    mfastboot reboot
  6. If you also want to lock your phone’s bootloader, type the following command and hit the Enter key:
    mfastboot oem lock
  7. Finally, reboot your device by typing:
    mfastboot reboot
  8. You Moto G will reboot now but if it is unable to pass the boot screen, try this: turn off the device, go to Bootloader mode, launch command window wipe cacahe and userdata by issuing these commands:
    mfastboot erase cache 
    mfastboot erase userdata
    
    mfastboot reboot
  9. To relock the bootloader on your Moto G 2014, type the following command and hit the Enter key:
    mfastboot oem lock

Wait till your phone boots up. Done! You have successfully restored your Moto G 2014 to stock!

    Just so you know and just so many users don’t brick their precious phones that in my case (5.0.2), there are 5 img_sparsechunk files in the firmware folder (0,1,2,3,4). That is, after this command ‘mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3’, add ‘mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4.’ if applicable. Check the firmware folder first!

    By mistake, I followed the instructions for Global devices, but I have an Indian device. Now both my SIM slots are inactive. I tried reflashing a custom ROM, still inactive, I factory reset it, its still inactive.

    Please tell me how to fix it.

      Download a Custom Boot Logo.
      Download it then,

      Is your device getting device by ADB?

    Poorly done tutorial, you don’t take account that adb.exe is not included in the android sdk download nor do you explain how to get it. 4/10

      Did you even try check things before drawing your fantastic conclusion? The tutorial uses minimal ADB and Fastboot tools.

      Besides, ADB and Fastboot files are included in the Android SDK by default. You only need to navigate to the “platform-tools” folder.

      2 eye-opener screenshots have been attached below. Between, blaming is the easiest thing to do.

        You did not mention that you have to set adb as a system variable so the executable is recognised to be able to run any commands in the first place, and platform-tools and tools only show up after running the SDK.

          It’s because you need not setup the Android SDK. Using the mfastboot is enough

          • May 12, 2015 at 2:25 PM
            Ratchet says:

            I understand that you dont need the SDK, but for the folders to appear eith the adb executable and msfastboot I needed to run the SDK first for those folders to appear, plus the 1st command line (adb reboot boot-bootloader) you need windows to recognise adb before hand. Hence you need to add it to the system variables, or else you will only get an error stating that its not a known command on the terminal. You probably overlooked it, but for future reference I would advise you to add a link on how to do that so for anyone else that has no idea what to do can have some information.
            Thanks anyway.

            Just open the mfastboot folder and issue “adb reboot bootloader” command. It will work.

      Then the problem might be with the ADB and Fastboot drivers. The best way to know if everything is fine is to connect your phone to computer when it’s turned on and type this command (without quotes) in the cmd: “adb devices”

            If you have ADB working for one device, it does not make a case for it working for all other devices. “waiting for device” means ADB is not detecting your device. Do you have USB Debugging enabled on the phone?

      Open up Device Manager on Windows and Uninstall the Motorola Driver and just re-install it bro. Also don’t forget about using the proper USB Cable because that might be another issue you may be encountering. Also If your doing this through Linux / Mac OS X it will not work I’ve tested it on both and it does’t work.

      That points to USB drivers issue. Also, where did you launch the cmd window from?

      To check proper drivers installation, connect the device to computer, make sure to allow debugging on the device, launch cmd window and type “adb devices” and hit enter key.

    To Start of with this tutorial was horribly done this is the proper steps you need to use in order to flash the software properly + have the bootloader locked

    In the command prompt enter this…

    mfastboot.exe oem lock begin
    mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
    mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img
    mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
    mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
    mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
    mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
    mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
    mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
    mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
    mfastboot.exe erase cache
    mfastboot.exe erase userdata
    mfastboot.exe oem lock
    mfastboot.exe reboot

    When your phone reboots don’t worry if your boot screen says bootloader unlocked everything is working fine and your bootloader is unlocked just flash the logo too

    fastboot flash logo logo.bin

    AND BAM WOLAH

    This wont work because there are 4 system images – system.img_sparsechunk.0 system.img_sparsechunk.1 system.img_sparsechunk.2 system.img_sparsechunk.3. If you dont flash all of them, it won’t boot and it will be stuck at the bootloader. Please fix this guide.

      It seems like you corrupted your recovery partition while trying to flash it. And hence, the Android bot warning logo shows up. Try and flash the recovery partition again in fastboot mode using the following command:

    When you download above firmware there are four ‘system.img_sparsechunk’
    instead of 3. So continue as following and it will work otherwise one part is missed and you can’t go beyond boot logo

    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
    mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
