[SCRIPT] Moto E XT1023 super easy ROOT, RECOVERY, & RESTORE

[Tomsgt]

This is a little script tool I made up for the Moto E XT1023 The Firmware restore will only work on the XT1023 but all other options should work on all the variants of the Moto E
It is really simple. But requires a unlocked bootloader video HERE If you need help with bootloader unlock


Download the Moto E Super Tool
extract the tool to your desktop
Turn on usb debugging mode on the device
install the Motorola drivers
Run the Moto E 1 Moto-E-Restore-XT1023.bat file
then just select what you want to do
1. Root your Moto E
2. Flash TWRP Recovery
3. Flash Stock Android Recovery
4. Flash CWM recovery
5. Remove the unlocked bootloader warning
6. Fully restore the Moto E to stock
7. Fully restore plus Relock the bootloader

Is it for all the models like xt1021 nd xt1022??

Is it for all the models like xt1021 nd xt1022??

the first line of thread answers your question. variants=models

Is it for all the models like xt1021 nd xt1022??

I have tested it on the xt1023 but from what i am told it should work on all models because supersu.zip is universal and same with TWRP if i am not mistaken.

doesn't reboot into recovery

Everything seems ok during the process but when the phone reboots it stays in the Motorola logo/Android screen, never moving on to TWRP. This also happened when I tried the normal Fastboot method. Bootloader is unlocked and usb debugging is checked, of course.

Any ideas?

edit:

More info-
1. The only command that seems to work on my phone is when I install stock recovery.
2. When I go into bootloader and try to restart in any mode but normal restart I get a blank screen
3. I previously bricked my phone by doing something stupid so I reflashed one of the factory firmwares-
RETUAWS_XT1023_4.4.2_KXC20.82-15_cid9_CFC.xml
Could this be the source of my problem?

Thanks in advance!

Cannot upgrade to 4.4.4

Thanks for the nice video; however I just have a problem when trying to go back to stock recovery to install the 4.4.4 update that is recently pushed to Moto E devices; I want to go back to stock recovery as it does not gets installed with any custom recovery.

I tried the said method 4-5 times but it gives me with a dead android icon when trying to get to stock recovery..

Please help me to get 4.4.4 on my device.

 

[Tomsgt]

Yeah that is normal you have to press volume up and power on that screen to get to options

Update won't work if you have modded system partition in any way. Even if its just blotware uninstalled. Just flash system partition only and it should work. The .1 .2 .3 file extension files I mean

You mean system.img_sparsechunk.0, system.img_sparsechunk.1, system.img_sparsechunk.2 right??

Done that already with no success.. I don't know what I am doing wrong here

Updated Yippeeeeee...

The issue was my rooted device, I had to unroot, install stock ROM as I had removed plenty of bloatware..update success, re-root and enjoy!!!!

Posting steps to benefit someone who may be facing the same issue as I was..

Hey guys. My little brother just got a Moto E, and I'm trying to get it rooted/Recovery'd.

I'm using your toolkit, but so far, no luck. Doesn't want to root, nor install recovery. It's stuck on "waiting for device".

I don't know what's wrong. I checked that USB debugging was on, and he unlocked his bootloader earlier. Everything should be fine.

But, it doesn't work.

Could someone provide some help, please ?

Thanks.

 

[Tomsgt]

Did you extract the zip to your desktop? And are the right drivers installed also try using a different USB cable or port.

Yeah, I tried it. Weird thing is that we reconnected it to his computer, and the script recognized his phone, while my PC did not. Everything went smooth. Thanks.

Plz include flash stock firmware to your your script
And don't add drivers to in your zip file make a separate link for driver.
