Bro,

Never flash stock Firmware with a locked bootloader. -_-

Solution: Unlock Bootloader and reflash Stock Firmware with same steps.

I had the same issue. What I did was, in code 4.2, before this line:
"mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin",
i added
"mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3",
as in the archive, there are three sprsechunk files.. Then the device booted up fine. Pls try and do let me know if I am wrong.

Is it necessary to flash all modules if we just want to return to stock recovery and remove root? Can we remove root and lock the bootloader without flashing all modules?

Thanks bro.. I noticed system.img_sparsechunk.3 in the firmware folder and reflashed it as you have suggested.. worked like a charm now I am able to boot my moto g 2014 into system. Thanks again bro. I am going to post a new thread for properly reflashing stock rom on moto g 2014...
