Either you are flashing the wrong recovery for the phone - or you renamed a zip file instead of extracting the img file first
Put quotation marks around the file path eg "c:/file path" or navigate to where you have fastboot and the twrp image first so all you have to type is
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Also make sure adb debugging is enabled in dev options of phone settings
Also if the bootloader is unlocked you should get a bootloader unlocked warning when the device starts unless you have replaced the boot logo with a modified one
If you haven't replaced this & you don't get said warning your device doesn't have an unlocked bootloader
The console is definatly finding the file. this is not the issueadb debugging is enabled. altho i realised i have the insert pattern before startup enabled and i think that might be interfering.
I am not gettIng the bootloader unlocked warning.
I disabled the pattern on bootup.
I unlocked with oem unlock.
i tried to flash from directory
Same issue
Stil no unlocked warning

Just to check, have you requested and used the unlock key from the Motorola website?
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
I have requested one. haven't received it yet.
The website doesn't show if eligable if click that button.
Also they havent send me anything for an houer after requesting.

Hopefully they'll send you an email with the code in soon. Sometimes the website is a little slow, but regardless it should say if your device is eligible for unlocking. Is your device a carrier bought device or a retail device or bought from Amazon Prime? They do say if your device is bought from Motorola, to wait at least 24 hours before requesting the code.
Check that the unlock string from your device is properly formatted for the website
Ok, so my device should be eligible, but when in enter my unlock string in your tool, I get an error message. What’s wrong?
Please make sure the string you enter in the tool is:
formatted to fit on one line only
has no spaces (you have to remove them manually)
has no carriage returns (these pesky \n)
is of the right length, e.g don’t forget to append the extra 000000… on the last line
USE THE SCRUB TOOL on the UNLOCK PAGE - ABOVE the INPUT BOX
As an example, this is what is returned with the fastboot command
$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 99999999999999993332323239#BD00

(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
And this is what you should enter in the form; it’s a single line, no spaces but with all the trailing zeroes.
0A40040192024205#4C4D355631323030373731363031303332323239#BD008A672BA4746C2CE02328A2A 0C39F951A3E5#1F532800020000000000000000000000

That code in the email should let you unlock the bootloader and let you flash TWRP, no other way to unlock your bootloader (officially). If you don't get the code after a few tries of the website/waiting for the email, you may have to post on the Motorola forums:

That looks normal - the 'Image not signed or corrupt' message is normal as TWRP has not been cryptographically signed. As you've unlocked your bootloader that message is informational to alert that you're flashing non-Motorola files to your device (which you are).
I'd reboot to recovery after flashing and perform the other steps required (which appear to include disabling dm-verity:

)
Weird, that validation error is usually shown when bootloader isn't actually unlocked. Have you tried unlocking it again? Have you tried with mfastboot?
I have tried a same,got a bootloader and tried with fastboot,but i got error 'need to enable OEM in android settings'
.Actualy my mobile stuck with logo,once moto logo appear its gets shutdown,
Looking for your reply.
