I have unlocked the bootloader on my Moto G.
I have also flashed ClockworkMod Touch sucsessfully, but it did not boot after the first reboot, even when I said yes to "Disabling the stock recovery reflashing".
Now, whenever I enter fastboot mode (POWER + VOLDOWN) and select RECOVERY, it comes up with "No command." and a picture of an android lying down, with its front open, with warning symbol. (See attached)
I have tried reflashing the recovery using fastboot, but the same problem happens.
Any help?
Did you try pressing volume down then power or volume up then power? It vice versa? I found myself locked out of my Verizon Moto G and to factory reset I had to push some buttons, which worked.

Worked like a charm :)

Get the same issue after flashing a recovery with fastboot...

how i fixed it :

Flashed another one (CWM swipe on the cm11 thread) through fastboot mode

once recovery flash is done, go in the recovery RIGHT NOW (volume down to scroll, volume up to select ; don't touch power button)

once in the recovery, flash supersu if it has to be done, then reboot



Worked for me
Seems somewhat logical and illogical to boot into recovery without even doing the usual rebooting after the initial twrp flash.; but WORKED FOR ME :D
Thank you so much.

Thank you for putting in "RIGHT NOW", that was the trick. all other instructions have their timing confused on when to reboot, connect the usb cable, etc.

Press volume up for 10 seconds and then just tap power button once and release both.
I am getting the same problem... However I managed to reach the system recovery by pressing those volume combinations on the no command screen.... What do I do now??? How do I root from here??? New to all of these...

no need of a custom recovery

press and hold power button for 2 seconds and then press Volume up button once. You’ll enter recovery mode on your Moto G 3rd Gen;)
