I've had my Moto X Pure for over a few months now. After rooting it, i installed TWRP 3.0.2 and have had different roms and not come across any problems regarding a hard brick. I was using my phone on the CM 13 Rom, and it was bugging out, so i tried to reboot. After trying to reboot, it would come to the WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED SCREEN and not boot past that, let alone get into the actual loading screen. Now, i cant boot into twrp. When i try to enter recovery mode, it goes to the TWRP screen, and sits there without proceeding. I cant boot the phone, or boot into recovery. I can only boot into the bootloader. ANY AND EVERY ADVICE IS APPRECIATED THANK YOU!!!
Edit: I fixed it. had to manually extract and reflash some files from a very useful restore to stock tool.

If your able to boot into bootloader you can try to reflashTWRP or flash the original recovery and the original system files.

Can you get it into fastboot mode? If you can, it sounds like somehow the recovery is corrupt and you would need to use 'fastboot erase recovery' first, and then 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' (using the twrp .img flashable file of course)
I hope that does the trick. Only think I can think of other than that is look for the automated return to stock tool for the moto x 2015 and use that.
thanks

Can you tell us what fixed it? Do you know if it was firmware related? Was it the recovery? I have multiple people on this device all on custom software, always interested to find the cause of these types of issues for future reference. And most importantly, glad you got it resolved!

I honestly have no idea what the problem was. But i downloaded and used someones lollipop restore to stock tool, literally restoring to the original state you got the phone in, and it worked. I believe it had something to do with the rom, and possibly some xposed modules i had installed, but there was nothing that actually messed around with the phone's system files. I couldn't access recovery in anyway whatsoever, but my advice to you is that if you ever need help because the phone is potentially hard-bricked, see if it connects to PC and if it does use the restore to stock tool.

Nothing it just vibrates as soon as i hit factory reset then bootloops now it wont even go into recovery just fastboot screen but cant get fastboot to work at all and have all drivers android studio etc. Nothing will work need a new solution
It was hash kernel it corrupted all 64 gigs of storage and music etc. Had to return to stock via auto flash firmware.
Mine is XT1572 device. Since the mentioned tool was not available for this model, I took the chance with XT1575 tool. It did all the steps but the issue has become worse. Now, my device is automatically getting On and OFF in seconds and does not boot beyond the bootloader 'unlocked' warning screen. Please please please help !!!!
Hi
Earlier today I was running 7.0.0. Stock No root with unlocked bootloader, all of a sudden random reboots. Until it no longer wanted to go past Google screen. Plugged into nexus root toolkit, tried flashing stock, downgrading to marshmallow, locking bootloader, unlocking again, multiple times and tries with no luck. The device now will only allow me to get into bootloader when I plug it to charge and immediately press power & -volume. I would appreciate it any help I can get in this.
Thanks

Just about everyone in this thread is in similar boat. I think there is one that was on 6.0, but most on npd90x I believe. There might be something useful to help you with. What version of twrp are you using? 3.0.2-1 has a bug with efs partition.

You mean flash to install TWRP or you were trying to install via ADB and your phone wasn't in recovery? You flash the TWRP image to install it from your bootloader via fastboot commands. You can load other files onto your phone via ADB sideload while in recovery. It is helpful to be clear on the forums so people can better help.

Again, without knowing what you have/haven't done in advance, it's hard to be of much help. To run ADB commands, you need to have USB debugging enabled on the device from settings. So, if you haven't done that, you can't do anything via ADB/fastboot and prior to that, I see you said you did have an unlocked bootloader.
Beyond those two things, which are reiterated within it, I'd strongly recommend following Heisenberg's guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928 to do any flashing on your phone. This begins by ensuring you get a working version of the drivers installed to your machine via the Android SDK. Since your BL is unlocked, you should be able to flash TWRP via fastboot command. Also, ensure you are installing version 3.0.2-3, the latest 'unofficial' that is bug-free.

Hey again
I used guide specifically to go back to stock, combined with a couple times of wiping in stock recovery I finally got the phone to boot up! However I've learned something new, the phone will only stay on if I'm plugged into charger, and as soon as it's unplugged it turns off. Any other suggestions?
Hi,
I'm not sure if it's the right place to ask this, but I need help. I just got my Axon 7 in the mail today so I was eager to root it and get started. It did not go well.
The version I got was on b27, and it had an update to b29 right out the box. I did not think too much of it and did the update. I realized later that if I wanted to root, I would need to be on b20 instead. No worries, I got into recovery, flashed the b20 stock image, and all went fine. I went on and rooted using tenfar's utility, and it also went fine. I rebooted went with DrakenFX's way to update back to b29, but something went wrong in the process, and I don't remember the exact message. I told myself that it might be cause I wasn't running the latest TWRP. When I first got into recover after using tenfar's utility, I noticed that the TWRP version was not the latest (3-0-2-0? maybe). I had just downloaded the most recent TWRP image from Unjustified Dev (twrp-3.0.2-2-a2017u.img), so I decided to update right away from within TWRP...I guess this is not something you can do.
Long story short, the phone simply won't get into recovery mode now. The led flashes red for a second, then the phone simply shuts down.
The weird part is that it boots just fine, and I can get into ADB and bootloader too. However, my bootloader is locked once more, and root does not work either. I am now on b29, so I cannot use tenfar's utility.
So, am I SOL? Is there a way to restore the stock recovery image via ADB? I tried flashing TWRP again, but I get a "FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)" in ADB, most likely because my bootloader is locked again?
The good part is that the phone is usable and everything seems to work, but having no recovery is a bit unnerving...if something goes wrong again, the phone will be a dead brick.
Thank you very much.
OK, I just realized that I could still use tenfar's utility even though I was on b29....pheww, what a relief. Back in TWRP. Sorry, you can delete this thread (I would do it if I knew how )

Can you link me in the right direction? I'm having the same problem where I can get to bootloader and fastboot, but no recovery. I'm on a2017u.x.x.b29, too.
Hi,
I am not sure anyone should follow my advice considering how I somehow managed to screw up a relatively simple process, but here's how I fixed it. I used tenfar's utility from this thread to flash TWRP again. Even though I was on B29, I used the B27 package and it worked fine. But don't flash the boot image, just the recovery! After that, I could boot into TWRP again. From there I followed this great instruction thread and got Lineage up and running in minutes.
I hope this helps you get going, but keep in mind that this might not be the proper way to do things, it's just what worked for me. Cheers.

I've been away from XDA for quite some time since I've had the S6 Edge on Verizon and there hasn't been any type of root action on it. I really appreciate the links you posted!
Hey guys,
This afternoon I tried to change my file system fo f2fs, I failed and got into bootloop. Follow some instructions, I flash the factory image (I was using stock 7.1.1 Feb and EX Kernel before trying f2fs) but I still face the bootloop. As I know this is a softbrick, because I can still boot into bootloader and flash recovery. But no matter how I try (flash stock, flash rom cook, flash older stock)...my 6P is still in the bootloop. I check in the TWRP that my phone is still in ext4, not f2fs anymore.
I really need some advice to wake him up. Really appreciate your help.
In all honesty bro, I never noticed much difference if any with ext4 vs f2fs. On another note, what kernel and ROM did you flash with f2fs? The the version that supports f2fs gives bootloops when you flash a custom kernel with that recovery. Try flashing the official version of recovery, reboot, then ROM and kernel if you wish and try again.

Why do you still have TWRP if you flashed stock? You need to flash the complete stock image including the stock recovery.

It's a good sign you formatted and received no errors in fastboot. Google provides instructions for flash-all.bat on the same page you download the images from. https://developers.google.com/android/images
If you are not comfortable using the command window in Windows, you could also use a toolkit like Wugfresh's NRT or Skipsoft's Toolkit to automate the whole process.

Hi... Here's a pretty good detailed process on how to unlock/flash, etc...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928/page549
Also, before using any toolkit, I suggest using manual commands and getting comfortable with it. At least, you learn exactly what command do what! Simply pressing a button in a program may result in a bricked device. Plus with command line you learn something. :good:

I'm guessing you've already tried a factory reset from the stock recovery. Because your bootloader is locked you are limited to sideloading OTA's. And yes, sideloading an older or equal version OTA will fail. You can try a newer revision OTA when available. The 7.1.2 beta may come out before the March security update.

I agree. Unless you absolutely cannot live without Android Pay or Wallet, work phone, etc., there is no reason to not unlock the bootloader as a safeguard. Of course it's no guarantee, but you just have a whole lot more tools at your disposal when SHTF, including restoring a recent backup or flashing a complete stock image. The initial pain of losing your data can be largely mitigated by pulling it off first, and eventually you even forget about the boot nag screen.

Now i have unlocked bootloader but the phone keep restart and stuck at logo again. i followed @Heisenberg thread but same result.
I was on the last beta n4f26t, and flash TWRP successfully, then went to flash superSU from twrp, this when wrong and everything goes downhill from here. I tried flashing back the last update, in it's entirety following the Heisenberg guide for returning to stock didn't work, tried flashing twrp again still can't get into recovery (just boot loops) I tried a previous update NMF26F and got to the dead android recovery screen but when I tried to flash back the OTA nothing happened and went back to bootloop on reboot. I've used the nexus root kit and still nothing. What can I do to fix this? I've honestly looked up every resource I could think of before posting this here. really hoping I didn't perma brick my 6P

Hello... So now you only have access to the bootloader Or bootloader and stock recovery?
If your bootloader is unlocked, you can try:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot format userdata
Of course it will wipe your internal storage...

I would concentrate on trying to get a working recovery first. Almost everyone who lost recovery mode never got their phone back- classic BLOD. First try fastboot FORMATTING recovery and then both fastboot flash twrp, and then fastboot boot twrp. If you can get a working recovery there may be hope. If you can never boot to recovery mode, I think you are done. From your bootloader screen, what is your bl version?

BL: angler-03.6.7
Baseband: angler-3.81
I see all normal BL options and I flashed it with the nexus root kit and used https://developer.android.com/preview/download-712.html this image
I know with older versions of TWRP there was a problem with the EFS partition that contains the IMEI info. What version of twrp are you using??? I thought I bricked my Nexus 6p after restoring a backup but it was actually just me screwing up my EFS partition. The newer versions of twrp (i think 3.0.3 and up) fixed this problem. Still though, if it is that, and you flash a new twrp version it won't fix your problem. If you have the time search through the forum for the EFS partition fix. I don't know the commands off the top of my head but I know this helped a lot of people. Worth a shot.

OK, but when you try to boot to recovery, it bootloops? Never goes to recovery? Try the steps above to successfully flash the recovery partition using fastboot. I suppose you can use NRT, but download the latest version of TWRP and try both flashing and booting the twrp.img.
same boat
anxious to hear results: I can't get to recovery and am bootlooping - tried a bunch of things using Nexus Root Toolkit . Curiously enough earlier when I was trying to flash an older version or ressurection remix, even my TWRP would bootloop so I couldn't flash anything without it quitting - anyone ever hear of that happening?

I have flashed TWRP 3.1 and I can not boot into recovery, I flashed it manually with fastboot flash recovery "image"

Hey... Did you try to boot TWRP?
From bootloader: fastboot boot twrp.img
If this fails and you only have access to the bootloader, i think you are SOL.
Good luck...

Yep from bootloader:
fastboot boot TWRP.img
I don't have any other idea sorry...
You can try to contact Google or Huawei. Even being out of warranty, some people have had their device replaced.
Good luck...

Are you able to get into recovery and adb sideload a stock OTA from the google developer website? That's always saved me when I've had problems.

Guess you didn't read the rest of the the thread...
We don't need more posts about bootloop. There is a main topic that has been discussed for multiple pages:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/help/boot-loop-death-nexus-6p-t3533528
I personally had the issue and had to RMA the phone. I suggest you do the same.
