Can anyone here confirm that this recovery works on a xt1021 Moto e? and if so, can you confirm that you can flash it while running the latest firmware from motorola?
I have a XT1021 here, flashed with the latest retail 4.4.4 firmware for my region (and twrp).
fastboot boot cwm.img doesn't work neither for 6.0.4.9 nor 6.0.5.1 - I get a split screen with the green M logo in the top half, some bootloader messages in between, and nothing more.
Running the "fastboot boot" command withthe twrp (2.7.2.0) image, I get the green logo all over the screen - and nothing more. I'm afraid "fastboot boot" won't work at all (with my Linux fastboot, at least)... and I'm a bit hesitant to wreck the device by flashing another recovery (as it's not mine)
Well, no risk, no fun - "fastboot flash recovery" did indeed work with 6.0.5.1 (although there was this infamous partition size error message), and I could boot directly into it from the bootloader menu.
Backup throws an "error while backing up boot image", so I looked in the log:
Code:
mkdir: can't create directory '/sdcard/clockworkmod/': Permission denied
(actually, later inspection showed that the directory exists, with two files in it!) -
and another one
Code:
I:Cannot load volume /misc
(twice).
Rebooting to bootloader, to flash 6.0.4.9 instead (which BTW says "6.0.5.0"...) Same problem.
Going back to TWRP now (which does backups, somehow, but not always right) - issues fixed with 2.8.2.0 it seems
