#How to boot into Stock Recovery in Moto G 3rd Gen.
when i open recovery…..its written 'No Command'
plz help
Did you flashed the above recovery?
same thing here.. I flashed the stock recovery moto g 3rd gen.img file.. after that I get no command.. upadte: I was able to reboot, and got back to my home screen.. however I am not in stock.. still got all the things I had on my home screen
I decided to leave it like it is for fear of bricking..
the good news is that actually you flashed the stock recovery of Moto G 3rd gen 100% correctly if you are seeing only No command option in Recovery mode.
I have update the article do check it once!
alrighty will try now !
so once I get in to the recovery boot like you posted above, which option do I select ? wipe cache partition ?
Can tell what are u going to with stock recovery.
Do let us know if your problem is solved
Got it.. finally got in the menu and was able to do wipe data/factory reset. The reason why I wanted to do this, is because I had my g3 rooted.. and I was not being able to upgrade the new system version 23.46.4.en.01 I tried doing it but it kept failing.. probably because of the root.. will try now again now that the stock is fully functional.
So for getting update on your device do the following this.
1.flash stock firmware lollipop 5.1.1
2. Unroot it.
3.flash stock recovery in it.
Done! Then try to update it it should work now.
I unrooted and then put the stock firmware.. I hope it doensn't make any difference.. trying to update now.
No it will make any difference do let us know if you successfully update your device.
Finally ! I got it.. I was able to update it flashing the XT1543_OSPREY_RETLA_DS_2GB_5.1.1_LPI23.72-43_cid12_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip firmware.. that did the trick.. thanks for all the help !

Ota updates are concerned with only stock recovery and stock unmodified rom? There will be any problem if the bootloader is still unlocked?
Yes for ota updates you must have stock recovery and stock unmodifed rom.There will be no problem if bootloader is unlocked

i have flash this recovery without using pc…use this app http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-simple-recovery-switcher-t2857554
will this work for XT1540
please help
I can't make the commands menu appear, HELP!
which command menu?
Hi there! Have you ever got to the point where the Recovery Mode screen that shows the android lgoo and the ''no command'' text get's into a bootloop? Yes, that screen flashes and I am not able to click on power and volume up to actually get to the recovery screen.
What happened to me was that I got the MM upgrade from my carrier, it got my phone stuck on bootloop, and ever since I have been trying to flash official MM images. Got the latest one and still no luck. However a big mistery I have is that I can't access Recovery Mode, and I get this loop I am talking about. Googling arround I got to this page, just trying to flash a recovery version that actually works, see if I can get out of that loop and do a Factory Reset (as recomended on an XDA post).
I have been able to flash various recovery images, but none of them work. Actually 5.1.1 get me the loop I am talking about, but when I flash 6.0 recovery I don't even get the ''no command'' screen (not even for the nanosecond I get it when using 5.1.1 one).
I tried using the one in your post and actually even get ''Preflash Validation Failed''.
My phone version is:
XT1540 8GB P2B
Baseband: M8916_2020613.22.03.21.29R OSPREY_RETUSA_AWS_CUST
Any ideas are really appreciated since I am out of them. Please don't tell me to send it back to Motorola since I bought it in the US and not currently there :P.
Thanks!!
Actually when using the recovery.img from 5.1.1 and hold power+volume up, I get an error message that also flashes for microseconds and it says:
E:Can't mount cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open cache/recovery/last_log
qe 0/0
Again, any help is appreciated
Feels sad for your situation as this recovery works fine with XT 1550 and your device is XT1540 i think that me be the reason.
Di you try to flash any other custom recovery like TWRP ?
The problem is that I have locked bootloader, and since I can't access the phone anymore I can't unlock it…so custom recoveries won't work…thanks anyways
Then only way to fix it is to give it to nearby Service center.
Will this recovery work on 1st gen moto g xt-1045?
Thanks
