My moto x doesn't show up on my PC in boot loader, any idea on how to fix this?
Probably a driver issue try to install Motorola drivers again!
I have uninstalled and re installed the drivers and having the same problem, this just occurred after unlocking the boot loader.
picks it up as a android device but can not enter the files.
So did you get the success in unlocking bootloader?
After unlocking BL successfully, I flashed twrp successfully but when I booted to recovery mode it shows no command
It means you did't flash the recovery correctly.Try to Flash once again.
its saying my file size is to big, have been trying to figure it out for a few hours and still nothing
Try to change the usb cable and also install the drivers again.

Hi!
I have the following problem:
First: Unlocking bootloader –> was fine.
Then – Flashing TWRP-Recovery:
It didn't work immediately. I tried the "twrp-lux-2.8.7-v2.img" as recommended –> couldn't enter recovery. I tried "twrp-lux-3.0.0-r2.img" –> the same. I tried the "v2" again and I don't know why, but entering TWRP recovery suddenly worked. Great!
When I entered the recovery the first time my first action was making a backup. It was successful. After that, I wanted to reboot and now it shows the screen: "Warning Bootloader unlocked …." and the phone stucks. It doesn't boot. I tried different things in TWRP (wiping, restoring my backup, ….), but no chance …
Are there any hints for me? I don't know, what I can do …
Thx!
Hannes
Try to flash the recovery again and flash the stock rom !
