Atrix bricked - Atrix 4G General

Searched the whole forum but couldn't find a solution. It was bricked after gingerbreak method of rooting and suddenly restarted itself. Now, all i can see is just the red dual core motorola bootlogo. It doesn't pass that screen either it doesn't restart itself. Stuck on the bootlogo till the battery is depleted.
It can't enter RSD nor Fastboot mode so can't be detected by the pc. This is the atrix of my friend, i have mine working normally, so no battery problem here.
Any suggestions and ideas are very welcome.
Thanks.

Pull the battery for restart & see if you can enter RSD mode immediately upon turning it back on???

Google your local Motorola service center and tell them you downloaded an app and then that happened.

Tried both, no solution.
Motorola Turkey office just recommends to contact the moto office where the phone was originally purchased and that is motorola usa.

Sounds terrible... brick before bootloader finishes? Holding volume-down or up gives nothing? It is very unlikely that Gingerbreak could do anything like this. Unless your friend flashed a rogue bootloader, baseband, or bad .sbf, I think maybe you have a hardware problem.. sucks they will not do the return-ship to USA for you. Maybe ask Crnkoj about this, he has asked Moto re: some exchanges from EU.. (not sure if they were more helpful tho)
As always, I would 'watch' (linux command) 'lsusb' (another linux command) to see if the device ever appears when plugged in, if there is a chance you could still sbf flash it.. but I am doubtful.

You know that i can try anything to debrick this broken beast. Wide open to try anything. I am not fond of linux but the lsusb command, how do i do that ?
And yes, it's very strange but gingerbreak method bricked this phone. Didn't brick mine or others tho. It was never used and working great before the rooting process. Not sure what my friend did but in the end, phone is brick. He didn't apply baseband or other flashes,too.

Hi,
You said you depleted the battery, that would be one reason the phone isn't detected by a pc. Have you tried charging the battery? You could probably do a battery swap and charge his in your phone.
If that doesn't fix it then you can always do up a factory cable and run the phone off your pc. It's just a male to male with regular usb on one end and micro B on the other, hack the micro end to tie pin 4 to vcc. If you didn't get what I just said, don't try it.
Get into rsd mode by holding down the volume up button when you turn it on. Reflash using a sbf. There is nothing gingerbreak is doing to brick your phone.
Cheers!

I will try that and inform the result, thanks.

Could you put some shematics or picture ? I tried to power the phone from the - + battery contacts and micro usb, it insists to stay forever on bootlogo.
This is very sad since it nearly costed about 900 $ !

Bypassing the battery is just so you can use rsdlite to flash a firmware without the battery being an issue.
Cheers!

I am not to knowledgable in this are (great way to start a post huh) but I recall someone before having a similar problem and was not able to have it detected by the pc but was able to get linux to see the phone?
Have you tested this? Might give you the access you need to reflash your phone

No access to hboot only 3 androids skating ( I intimately Know the Search Button)

The phone was 2 weeks old and I did an OTA update. When I noticed the update was taking forever(3hours) I plugged in the phone to charge and I dropped it and the battery fell out now I get no hboot. When I try to Vol-down + Power the phone blinks as if to turn on and then goes off again then the screen shows three androids skatboarding mocking me with no response and no progress in any direction I read and tried all stock versions in different newly formatted fat32 memory cards and PD15IMG.ZIP files in the root but NO CIGAR!!
Can anyone please help me reach JOY??
One problem from the get go, is I don't think the update should have taken 3 hours, but anyway... I think your best shot at communicating with your device, is going to be adb. I am kinda new myself, but you're going to probably need to search the xda forums for "installing ADB on your PC" , and when you get it installed and working you can update by sending commands & pushing files from your computer to your phone IF you had USB debugging enabled.

3 androids skateboarding and no menu?
You have corrupted HBOOT or its data, it seems.
I don't think you can recover from it. Try to connect USB, see how your phone is recognized (name asked for a driver by OS - Android 1.0? Android Bootloader Interface?).
I get no response when connected to pc.( Undetected) Is there a recomended Jtagging Service from a reputable company that someone has tried.
Thanks for the input guys I appreciate the help.
info update:
The phone is undetected by computer-
The phone does charge the battery while in 3 android mode-
There is no change in the screen(no progress)-
?????Am I screwed?????
Any Suggestions
Do you have Android Explorer on your computer? I don't even remember where I got it..but it saved me once. Maybe you can google "Android Explorer" which is a utility that let's you do things to your phone. It may not work either if your pc don't recognize your phone, but, when you install it on your computer, it installs certain drivers that may help u breathe life into your phone. At this point it won't hurt to try. If it don't work you've lost nothing but a few minutes.

Try to take out the battery, let it lay for a day, place the battery back and power on.
Other than that, no device recognized at all = nothing to do. Look for repair price or sell for parts.

Ideos x5 totally bricked

Hi there,
My phone not turning on not without battery and SD not with home and volume+ and power button not with both volumes and power nothing at all not even vibrating when charging I am not sure if it's the battery but it was charged before I rebooted once rebooted it didn't turn back on I am on aurora ics and cwm.
I didn't have any problems with it partitions might of been wiped but I guess this would leave me with access to bootloader or anything or a vibrate on charge at least it happened as I was formatting another device but put the wrong sd on ubuntu so I started to think it might be the battery except it was charged unless it decided to leak all the charge in no time.
Also it doesn't do anything on usb or charge connection no vibrate no led no light buttons no nothing just nothing.
Sounds like my issue...
If in fact you did format the whole 3.69gb partition, then you wiped the phone.
So far, my only recourse has been to attempt a JTAG and install a bootloader.
I'm thinking that maybe I can try some form of "wire trick", like the ones used on the HTC Sensation, but I don't want to blow it up by shorting something unrepairable.
If you find another solution, please reply as it would be helpful to others.

nope i didnt format 3.96 gb it was 3 mb and it was shown as linux cd gadget also it worked afterwards until i rebooted next day then blackness the thing is i cant seem to find a battery to try with so i need to try everything first
The one I have here wouldn't start charging the battery until I force-fed the battery directly. (use a 4-5v charger and directly charge the battery for a couple of minutes).
Mine worked, but I made the mistake of formatting the entire partition (3.69gb), so now the phone does absolutely nothing.

I am a bit confused here so now when you plug it you can do something to it since it's charging? I guess I never did the 3.69 thingy if I am not mistaken..So lemme ask you if I tried the wall outlet for example instead of the USB to tv or laptop would that help to start it? I am thinking of replacing the battery and see what happens that's if I can find it here in Turkey the Turks always into the newest phones so this one is ancient to them to find a battery for...
Mine is in the same state. But I know that in my efforts to get it to start again I accidently wiped the the entire partition. Can't turn it on, can't get a pink screen, not a thing and haven't beenable to find any solution. So I guess all I can do is sit back and check the postings to see if anyone else has the same issue and knows of a way to restore the boot partition.

You need to buy BlackHat USB Motorola jig or knock one up from the junk / extra USB cord. This is the only way to force the phone to boot without battery. I had to buy mine just in case.

Alright, you will have to get at the micro USB connector shell, and solder ID pin to red wire (5V + power). Some Blackberry USB cords has yellow wire inside which actually lead to the ID pin in small USB B plug, you just tie yellow wire to red wire.

Sorry I haven't been on thanks for the reply and will it put my phone into fastboot mode because my phone acts live a brick.
Sent from my VS840 4G using XDA Free mobile app
You have to put it in fastboot manually but the bootloader will still boot because the Motorola factory jig basically bypass the battery. In fact, Motorola flash the phones this way before the batteries are even installed.
Also, I doubt you would have bricked your phone's bootloader so good by botched update since the second stage bootloader is usually small, about 10 MB in file size. You will usually be able to enter the fastboot menu with factory jig.

OK thanks so even though my phone won't power on after a update the jig will put it into fastboot mode and I will be able to flash software back in there. Is that what you mean.
Sent from my VS840 4G using XDA Free mobile app
The jig will basically keep the phone on without the battery, allowing you to proceed with fastboot. It's how Motorola coded the bootloaders, basically an emergency boot mode.
After a successful unbricking, the battery charger will start to function normally. The reason Motorola do this type of bricking is mostly safety, of course the battery can crash and burn, especially with the broken software on the phone. So, Motorola reserved the USB ID = 5 Volts DC USB power as the emergency boot mode.
OK so the cable that came with my phone cannot act like a USB jig because I have one it just won't get into fastboot mode so if I make one it will go onto fastboot mode.

When you say jig do you guys mean a factory cable its very easy to make (thread linked) or buy a team black hat adapter
We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.
dbreezy187 - this. I will find a link to Blackhat jig (I have this one - $10).
EDIT: ....! Team Blackhat disappeared.... Guess I lucked out and bought one on time. Nevertheless it ought be simple to make the factory cable.
So it should work because I still don't think that a USB jig would work because my phone is like this I will post a YouTube link of my problem OK hold up.

You should to try a factory cable... The green led tells me that the battery is dead (to dead to boot to the charging animation, fastboot or os) and it is recognizing that it is connected to a power source... Try to use a factory cable to flash the firmware if it does flash successfully once flash connect it to a standard USB cable and charge vie wall adapter not a pc
Edit... I just read that it may have died during ota if that is the case you may be in a hard spot... Next step I would contact moto or vzw for warranty status and/or replacement/repair

Bricked beyond repair?

So. I have used the unbrick tool several times before because sometimes I want to go back to out of the box factory. Locked bootloader, the whole nine. Well, it failed, so I unplugged it to try again, and no matter what I do, I can't get my computer to recognize that it's connected to the computer. I've been trying the holding volume up while plugging it in while in test mode. Like I said, I've used it before. I made sure I had plenty of battery life before I tried it, so I know the battery isn't dead. Do I need to look into getting another phone, or has anyone had a phone brick this badly and know how to fix it.
Just to rule out the obvious, have you tried different cable and computer?

I'm not very familiar with windows, you could try booting a Ubuntu livecd and typing in a terminal: dmesg
Then plug in the phone.
see if you can find any reference to the device being connected within the kernel messages.

This is an EPIPE error, this means the device is not answering the USB protocol requests and the pipe is broken.
In my experience this has always been due to a faulty cable, but in your case I'm afraid the device is juts not behaving as it should.
Next step would be to troubleshoot the hardware; This is not my area but maybe someone experienced can help out indicating what should be the next steps.
It may be that some small hardware parts could be replaced or the damage could be more severe.
Did you power down the phone then hold the power and volume down buttons at the same time to try and boot directly into recovery? If you can boot into recovery and have TWRP you could format the data on your phone using TWRP. That would erase everything on your phone except TWRP. Your computer would recognize your phone as an external hard drive and you could copy and paste a full ROM zip onto the phone memory and flash it with TWRP. If the tool you used installed the stock recovery I'm not sure what your options are but being able to boot into recovery would be a sign that your phone isn't actually hard bricked. Using automated tools to flash your phone is a really bad idea. It is much safer to flash manually.
I think there is close to zero chance that you have a hardware issue based on what you described. I've never heard of anyone hard bricking an OP5 so I think your phone is recoverable. If you can't figure it out a competent phone repair shop should be able to get you up and running again.
There's also One Plus tech support but if you try to get help from them I would probably just tell them your phone got borked after an update. If you tell them the entire circumstance they probably won't even try to help you.
Good luck.

Lepro3 not bricked, but really strange

Well,
My Lepro 3 has a very very strange problem :
Everything started Monday : it was at 20% and he just switched off, and then did 0 sign of life for like 4 hours (it was charging, but no led, etc..). After those 4 hours, the red light started blinking but still. And after 1 hour, I was able to boot (he had 10%). I decided to reset the rom, however, there was no way to get the phone recognized by my computer. I then decided to go to sleep and to charge to 100% the phone. Of course, nothing changed. And i even realized something worst : it takes like 5-6 hours to get to 100%, and it was 1h30 before.
FURTHERMORE : my lepro 3 isnt recognized on any PC, and neither in fastboot mod.
PLUS :
- when switched off, he won't power ON if i plug him to usb/sector.
- when powered on, he will vibrate TWICE when plugged to usb/sector : charging for 1 sec, then not charging for one sec, and then charging (like if he was trying to fast-charge, fails, and then switched to low-speed-charging
- when switched off, i sometimes need to press power for 10sec+ to get him booting
- I tried different cables
- tried usb debugging on/off
I don't know what i can try.. the only way seems to reset it with adb-wireless by pushing him a new rom but well..
I think it is a problem with my USB-C port (lepro 3 side) and i guess it is not using fast charging anymore
However, my headphones (usb-c) still work
Thanks in advance...
PS : I forgot to mention that i am running with Cydras Google-like rom 0.20S
I would switch to see makes a difference I have used that ROM without issue

Well I don't really know how to change the rom with no USB access.. Dunno if adb wireless is safe
Moreover, since the phone doesn't power up when off and plugged.. I guess the rom has nothing linked with this.. But maybe i'm wrong ! Could it be the kernel ?

Please read what I've already tried
You recommended a new rom : i said i already tried
You asked for debugging mod : i said i already tried
You asked for a different cable : i said i already tried
But still thanks for your help
EDIT : With the new rom (AICP 7.1.2) it's even worst : doesn't even charge when android booted, the only way to make it charging it to boot in recovery mod and to plug it

Yeah I tried..
It sounds like your usb card is fried.
I had this exact issue 2 months ago, I was lucky that the vendor exchanged it for a brand new phone.
It was probably fried by your usb cable. See if you can exchange the phone under warranty. Ask the vendor that you purchased it from, to honor the warranty, since contacting Leeco is difficult. Worst case, you will need to replace the USB card, its about $10.
VYeah, i guess it's the USB card... But there are two problems :
- its pretty Hard to disassemble a lepro 3
- i think that the original pro3 USB card comes with the vibrer, the speaker, and the microphone, and i didnt find any USB card with all of this on aliexpress...
He is no longer under warranty (15months vs 12)
Edit : another strange effect is that on cydras's ROM, the phone actually charges when powered on (but slow). On AICP 7.1.2, it juste says "plugged, not charging" when powered on

You are either bricked or its your battery, if bricked and the computer doesn't recognise the phone it still might recognise the port

Hey tsongming i have read quite a lot of posts from you in the last few days before commenting, i already tried before hand everything you said to get my phone detected by my computer and it still dosent get detected:
- tried multiple computers
- multiple cables
- and just in case, different driver versions.
Tried it all except the EDL Amazon cable you recommended in another one of your posts.
I have read that if i can't get it detected then theres nothing i can do.. which would suck.
ATM i have google pixel, beforehand i had AICP which worked really horrible on battery issues and would sometimes crash it. I have been using stock cable for 2 years which as i've read it the past few days is a terrible a ideia, and stock charger but as you say and qualcomm, i also believe its ok.
At this time i believe the problem might be a burned USB Card or the Battery itself bugging out(?) but since it charges when turned off (e.g: charged for 8 hours in supercharge to 84% =S), im clueless.
Since you said that you had the same issue on one of your Leeco, anything else you can recommend for me to try?
P.S: its worth noticing, i can Fastboot, Recovery to TWRP and turn it on, if indeed bricked i would call it a soft brick i guess..

If you can boot to Fastboot and Recovery, Then its not bricked. Your software is probably corrupted from a power spike or short. Its possible that your issue is just the USB card, which you can find for under $10, on Alibaba, Ebay and even Amazon.
Note that when you remove the screen do not use a Hairdryer to heat up the glue, there is way too much glue! You will need to briefly use a heat gun , and the screen will slide off with ease, the display and battery connectors are the lego type.. There are demonstration videos on Youtube.
Since you are removing the screen, you might as well replace the battery while your at it ( It should not cost more than $12)
If you want to buy a Backup LCD they are about $18 to $25 . ( definitely, recommend since there is a good chance of breaking the LCD, that you currently have)
If you order the screen, remove your LCD screen first to make sure that you order the correct one. They come with either black or yellow Flex cables ( not sure why) But if you have yellow obviously order yellow.
Make sure that the USB card is all inclusive and includes the chips, you are better off to spend a few dollars more for the better quality board. Sometimes the cheap ones come with missing chips for quick charge and CDLA ( Read the reviews)
Good Luck.
If you don't feel comfortable doing this, you can find Leeco Repair with a Google Search, or you can use TaoBao to get a "guaranteed fix", for really cheap. ( Even if its the motherboard ) They replace components and resolder) I doubt its the motherboard, but it's possible. In my case, I fried the motherboard and the phone still came on , but would not boot to system, also the screen was very pixelated.
