First, you need to turn on your phone in boot mode. From power-off, press-hold volume-up, then press-hold power, holding both together for 5 seconds. The Boot Mode selection menu should appear.

Now, you need to put the phone in Recovery Mode. Start by pressing volume down to pick Recovery, then volume-up to select. What you see and press after that depends on the version of Android your phone has.

For Android 5 and up, you should first see the "Motorola powered by Android" white screen, then a black screen, then a dead (or sleeping) Android robot with red exclamation mark. Press-hold power, then press volume-up and release both keys.

Before Android 5, you should wait for an Android logo. Once you see it, press-hold volume-up, then press power and release both keys.

Now the phone should be in Recovery Mode and you should see the menu where you can select "Wipe data/factory reset". The rest is intuitive.

I have a moto g 1st gen and the pin seems to have changed due to a prolonged 6 month inactivity. Do you know a factory pin or back door to gain access short of a factory reset?

Richard

The PIN doesn't change as time passes. If you can't remember it will need to be reset. There is no bypass as that wouldn't be security.
