6.0 marshmallow - Cannot flash Moto X Style - Due to "Pre-flash validation failed" error


I have bricked my device (The Motorola Moto X Style (UK)) after trying to install SuperSU on my device running the latest MM build.


Through hours and hours of research, I am trying to flash a stock build to my device, downloaded from this website https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20X%20Style/Stock/XT1572/


I am following the instructions in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/firmware-moto-x-style-pure-stock-t3272486


These are the commands you are told to enter into command prompt:



fastboot oem lock begin
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3

fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.9
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot

I have tried 2 different builds, both of them failing when reaching the same commands. This is my console window at the moment after reaching the sparsechunk.2 file

What am I doing wrong? Do these errors mean that I am trying to flash the wrong firmware?


Thanks for any help in advance!
