This worked for me on previous models but I haven't tested it on the G4 but hopefully it will still work.
Plug in the charger and long press the volume down key simultaneously.
There you will get the options screen for normal reboot, reset etc.
You can use the volume down key to scroll and the volume up to select.
It takes a little timing but if you do them at exactly the same time it should work.

Hey I'm having the same issue as this guy and my Moto G4 doesn't work like that as the volume up button only scrolls onto the next option not selecting it, I hope you're able to help as I have no clue what to do

That's bootloader screen,
You need PC and Fastboot installed on your PC,
Then run "fastboot reboot" command and it will start. (search general threads to know about fastboot setup and how to do it.)
"fastboot reboot emergency" works for me.

Where can I find where to download PC and Fastboot for my computer?
I'm unable to turn on my phone because the power button is broken and my battery has drained out. I tried the technique where I hold the charager in place and press the down portion of the volume button. Which option is best to select for me to turn on my phone?
Use a pin. I have my volume buttons broken. And there's some gap and I can push the pin in this area and it works fine. You can try the same with power button
I found the fix, I turned on my Moto G4 without a power button plus it was completely off.
1. Connect your USB Cable to the computer.
2. You have to put the charger & hold the volume down key at once. (Requires slight timing)
3. It will load you to the Fastboot Flash Screen Secure
4. Then manually install the ADB Driver, by going to Device Manager (Windows) right click > properties > update driver > select manually > select from list > click next > have disk > load the .inf driver file. You can get the Moto G4 driver online e.g. Google USB Drivers.
5. Install ADB Minimal & Fastboot then open it.
6. Type fastboot devices to see your device there.
7. Now type fastboot reboot
That's it.
If you face an error of bootloader slot not found, please use Minimal ADB Version 1.4 and do the process again.

Hello all,
I'm in a jam here and hoping one of you can help me out.
The power button on my Moto X Pure Edition, which is not rooted, has stopped working completely. The battery died overnight and, obviously, the phone powered off. Now I can't turn it back on. I'd like to get it turned on or at least get my personal data off of it. Does anyone have any ideas?
I have figured out how to get it into AP Fastboot Flash Mode by holding down the Volume Up & Volume Down buttons simultaneously while plugging it into a power source. But, I cannot select "START" (or anything else) from Fastboot because my power button doesn't work.
Hoping I can figure out how to do this without taking apart the phone, which will void my warranty and probably won't result in me being able to fix it anyway.
Thanks so much for your help!

Do you have fastboot installed on your computer? If you do then issue the following command : fastboot reboot
Your phone will now start up.
If you don't, install it. You will have to research how to do it for your system. I'm on Arch Linux, so won't know how to help you, but there will be a google guide.

Hilarious. After an hour of fumbling around I figured out the USB port I had the phone plugged into was bad. Plugged it into one on the other side of the computer, recognized, rebooted, good to go.

Hello everyone,
I have a problem, i got a Samsung Galaxy A3 (SM-A300FU) wich is fallen on the ground this resulted in a dead lcd and touch screen, the device is locked with a pincode, i allready got a new phone, but i would like to recover the files i got on that phone, is there anny way i could try?
- USB-debugging is DISABLED
- Tried a Delock connection kit 5 in 1 with HDMI (The phone plings as soon as i connect the HDMI to to connection kit, but it doesnt give signal)
- Samsung Kies software reconises the phone, but it cant access it because its locked.
If there is anny way that i could recover the data partically its also fine.
Regards,

Bumb - Need help :crying:
1. Flash TWRP through download mode. - power down with Power + Volume Down (emulates battery removal), wait a few second, boot in to Download Mode with Power + Home + Volume Down. Odin should show a COMx (x for number) sign and a green color on the slot. MAKE SURE YOU UNTICK AUTO-REBOOT, or else the stock recovery will reflash itself.
2. Access Phone via ADB recovery - After flashing the TWRP, power down again with Power + Volume Down and boot in to Recovery Mode with Power + Home + Volume Up.
You should now be able to "adb pull" files from the phone to the computer.
Minimal ADB & Fastboot
TWRP for A300FU (Odin included)
Please Debrick img For A300F , ?

hi all,
I have done all the steps but the TWRP gives me a message of "unmodified sysetm partition", I can not see well from the broken screen but it seems to me this:

}
obviously, due to the broken screen, I can not swipe, my pc recognizes and installs the smartphone drivers but if I run the command "adb devices" I do not see any connected any device.
Is it the fault of the swype I can not do? if there is an alternative to the swype to get over this screen?
thanks.

Hello members,
I have an old Asus Zenpad 10 Z300C that entered in a boot loop a few days ago.
I'm trying to boot in recovery mode so I can do a factory reset on it but I can't...
The procedures should be like these:
1. Power off your phone.
2. Once the device is off, press and hold the Volume Down + Power button together for a few seconds.
3. Release the keys as soon as you see the Asus logo and wait for few seconds.
4. Now, your phone should boot into Recovery Mode.
The only I can do is to boot in fastboot mode by pressing Volume Up + Power button.
Can anyone give me some tip about what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!

Hi, i don't succeed at the first try to install adb driver manually.
You must find Asus adb driver in the thread and force manual instal ( manually update adb in Windows paramèters or desinstall et manually install).
I succeed with fastboot command After install manually the specific Asus driver.
I tried Many times before and think it was not possible.

Hi,
This morning I wanted to factory reset the phone and flash the latest version, but to my surprise I do not have the Download mode anymore, but I have the standard fastboot screen, wtf ?
EDIT : using "adb reboot download" worked. "adb reboot bootloader" goes fastboot and "adb reboot fastboot" goes into a reboot.

Mate clearly you not doing it properly. Ensure you phone is powered off then plug the USB-C into to it. Next, with the volume button depressed plug the said other end of the cable into a laptop/PC. The phone should then power up with a blue screen, press the volume up.
