[HELP] Hardbricked Moto G4 Infinite loop/Reboot - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello guys this is my first time posting in here, the thing is, I hardbricked my Moto G4 and I can't make it work, it reboots each 5-6 seconds endlessly... any help or advice? I'm beyond desperate :/
Thank you in advance.
Here's a video to show you guys:
https:// youtu.be/_v5FErFl4rk
Ps: In the video, the phone is (usb) plugged to my laptop
Ps1: Already replaced the battery and nothing happened :/
Ps2: I know this section it's about g4plus, but I didn't receive so much help
Ps4: I followed the thread about recover a hardbrick phone, but can't run the commands just because the phone reboots itself each 5 seconds so, the process can't be completed.

It's rebooting like you have kept power key and vol- key pressed. It may be hardware failure..
But tell us,
What happens if USB is not plugged ?

For a test, flash any partition of more than 100MB,
Keep written command, when it comes to bootloader, enter command.
It will be FAILED, but i want to see what other error command prompt reflects. Post those lines..
If power and vol- keys are pressed, it will reflect "too many links" line somewhere.. just check for it.

I forgot to ask, how this happened ?
After flashing any ROM / firmware or before?

Sorry about the lack of reply to your other thread, I'll reply to you here.
As I recall, the battery on your device was a possible culprit - can you confirm that the connection being made to the motherboard is okay and not damaged? Might be a damaged or loose contact, which may be causing the reboots.
In your other thread, https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...inite-loop-t3742393/post75398422#post75398422 we were trying to flash a stock ROM, but you were seeing failed (invalid argument). Can you try to reflash the GPT and bootloader and see what response you get? I'm concerned though that because your device keeps rebooting, a firmware flash may not be a good idea (partial firmware flashes are another source of bricked devices).
If that doesn't work, we may have to consider that this is a hardware fault resolvable only by a service centre.

I already made a battery replacement and nothing's happened, some people says it's a battery thing, other firmware issues and others says it's a stick-button problem which it works well.

Thanks for the info:
1)So you've replaced the battery, but the reboots still occur, is that correct? Do you know if you (or whoever replaced the battery) checked the battery contacts on the motherboard, check they're not damaged? I'm concerned that a damaged connector may be causing the reboots, which would require a motherboard replacement.
2)Can you confirm this reboot and 'data transfer failure' keeps happening if you change to another USB port (on your computer, not in a USB hub) and that you're using the original Motorola USB cable to flash and power your device? Or if you don't have the original USB cable, that you're using a high quality data+power USB cable?
3)I'll let ____Mdd verify this, but the 'data transfer failure (too many links) is possibly due to the volume and power keys pressed in?

I have faced that once,
i was experimenting and my bootloader hanged, so i restarted by pressing Power and Vol-, this show me that lines in cmd screen..
That's why i can say your device have hardware problem, something is keeping power/vol keys pressed.
(Searching on XDA show me that line also appears if there is Driver or other connection problem) but here possibilities are more of keys pressed, definitely hardware failure...
But still, you haven't answered how / when this happened ?
You tried to disassemble device ?
While flashing anything ??

1) It was connected and everything was working "well", maybe it's not a battery issue :/
2) it's the original motorola usb, I tried with the original one and a cheap one and happens the same
3) I don't press any key because it reboot itself and leads automatically to the fastboot screen each 5 seconds.
Thank you for your reply, it means a lot to me

Hmm, I'd try pressing each of the volume and power buttons whilst your device is off, checking that you feel a click when you push them and they retract properly.
Else, it's starting to look like a motherboard issue, hence why I was asking if the battery connector was possibly damaged or loosened at any point (from the teardown videos, it seems like a 2 pin plug). If you're in fastboot, you're at the base level of firmware that is accessible by us, so your system, recovery, kernel and other software shouldn't have loaded in at this point (bit like the BIOS or UEFI). The only other thing I can suggest would be to re-flash just the bootloader and GPT, but without a stable device, flashing either of them and getting interrupted would lead to a hard brick. I do not know if the hard brick would be fixable with this blankflash: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/moto-g4-plus-hardbrick-solved-guide-t3657761
What do you mean by 'working well' in your above post?

Possibly bricked device, need D80020y image? (URGENT)

Hi, I was trying to update my LG G2 D800 to Lollipop using this guide:
http://webtrickz.com/how-to-update-lg-g2-to-official-lollipop-os/
However, after the device rebooted, it went to the LG logo screen, displayed this message in the top left corner, and went to an indefinite black screen.
boot certification error
secure booting error
cause: boot certification verify
Holding down the power button for about 15 seconds turns the device off, but sometimes it turns itself back on and does it again. Turning it off, then quickly holding volume down and power button, releasing on logo, then holding again brings it to a "Factory Data Reset" screen, however, doing a reset does nothing and puts me immediately back to the same problem.
Holding volume up and plugging it into my PC does the same thing, and when plugged in, windows recognizes about 20 "unformatted drives", and shows it as QHSUB_BULK in device manager, under other devices.
Before this, I was running stock 4.4.2, D80020y, rooted with towelroot. I had attempted to create a TWRP recovery, and it said it succeeded, however it was unable to boot to recovery.
I was going to try to fix it using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142
However, I am unable to find an img for D80020y.
I have access to a Win 8..1 desktop, and I can run whatever OS necessary in a VM.
Does anyone know where to find one? Or, can anyone provide me with one? Or, is there another way to fix this?
I'm just worried that my device is totally gone at this point, and considering I bought it used, I have no warranty, nor a phone to replace it, currently.
Thanks so much to anyone who can help me!
First off, why didn't you just do an OTA update to Lollipop (via settings/about phone) instead of trying to manually do it? It's a lot easier and you could of avoided all of this...
Anyways, I am not sure what exactly happened (maybe it was a bad flash or maybe you screwed up somewhere), but it looks like you've gotten yourself in a real mess.
Did you triple check that you followed the article step by step? Did other people state in the comments about any problems they faced when using the method?
I have tried that method you linked before, and I used Ubuntu, which is best for that method. However, it did not work for me. I remember going on and on with that and ultimately just flat out replaced my logic board when I had a bricked G2.
And I can totally relate to to the twenty unformatted drives, I have been in same exact situation with the endless windows popups when I plug in my phone, but I never really figured out the issue. I remember before I was stuck in fast boot mode, and after awhile I couldn't even get to fast boot.
Can you get into recovery? Is the phone still alive? If so, you can use this to get back to stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Hope this helps a bit, I have never been in your situation but if you want a real, simple solution to this: I would purchase and replace your logic board (phone's motherboard). It is a definite fix. If you are not comfortable with that, then I would advise to go ahead and do some research about this. Unfortunately, I have no idea where you can get that img (I do not have a D800, but rather a VS980), but I am sure with some Google searches you can find it.
I have bricked a couple phones in the past, and we all learn from our mistakes!
Best of luck!

I couldn't do an OTA update, as it's an AT&T phone, unlocked, and was running on TMobile. (Sorry, could've sword I specified that)
I was very careful that I followed all the steps of that article, to the period, but, again, Murphy's Law. I'm not sure what could have gone wrong.
And currently, I've tried every button combination I know and every one I could find from searching, and the only thing I can get into is the hard reset mode, but I cannot actually do a hard reset (just reboots with the same issue).
I've been unable to find specific d80020y img files after quite a bit of searching, but I will continue, and I've also contacted LG support in the event that by some act of god they can provide me with the files or another fix.

Gotcha. I haven't ran into the issue you have been describing at all before, but I just wanted to try to understand this situation a little better, I wish I could tell you what exactly happened.
As far as your problem, here's what I would do. The phone is still alive correct? Contact LG and send that bad boy in. Tell them you used it for a couple of months and all of a sudden it does not work anymore. I think that would be your best bet. However, do not tell them you modified it or whatever you tried to do with it.
Be aware if you do send it in to LG, make sure you have not tried to open up the phone and screw around with it internally. They will not fix it if that is the case. Also, it can be quite pricey depending on your current condition.
Oh, and LG will not provide you with those files, they are there to help you with any kind of phone issue, but not these kinds of issues.
This my friend is the best advice I can give you! Again, another option would be replacing the logic board, but that is ONLY a last resort.
BTW, you didn't hard brick it so that's a plus
I've not got a warranty, nor do I have the funds currently to have it repaired. That would be my last option.
Also, I'm not sure if this is helpful or relevant, but when I plugged it in to my PC just now, and it "recognized" the whole bunch of drives, I clicked through each one to see if it actually accessed anything. The "drive" it labeled "G:" had a single "image" folder in it, containing a bunch of .b00, .b01, .b02, etc files, and some .mdt files. (See picture)
Is this relevant at all? Could this help me?

Yes, I am sure. I just tried it again, though, to confirm. Held volume up, plugged in USB, and it went to the LG logo screen, showed the same error text in the top left, and went to a black screen.
I am downloading the SRKtool right now, and will try as soon as i have it.
Alrighty, so, progress (?).
I did the procedure with SRKtool, and at the end it told me to unplug it from USB and restart it, So i did that, and it went to the download mode screen, then it gave an error (Regrettably, it went too quick for me to read it), and now it's on the LG logo and has been for maybe 5 minutes, and the notification light is flashing multicolor.
EDIT: YES! I turned it off, since it wasn't doing anything, and i am able to get into download mode! Miracle!
So, is there anything else i need to to, or can i just flash Lollipop to it now, with download mode?

Wow, it flashed and everything without a hitch. I'm in KK now, and everything seems all good. So how would I go about upgrading to lollipop?
Thought I'd post back to share the conclusion.
Everything's working perfectly now, I flashed Lollipop through the flash tool, worked perfectly, and now I'm rooted, got a proper TWRP recovery set up, Xposed installed, and everything is good. Seems to run smoother on Lollipop too, and I was skeptical about the battery life, but it seems great

If you want to go to CM or Stock for Idol 3
-i will write guide to unlock bootloader and flash TWRP recovery
-You must have Minimal Adb and Fastboot
-type "adb reboot-bootloader" to reboot into bootloader. The device should reboot to the screen showing " .powered by android". This is bootloader mode.
-Then type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb devices" should show some numbers and "fastboot" after the numbers
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" shows device info including bootloader status (e.g. locked).
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem unlock" to unlock the bootloader; after this you should get, for device info,
-Type "fastboot -i 0x1bbb oem device-info" and you should see "Device unlocked: true"
-You successfully unlocked the bootloader one step more to flash the recovery
-Download the TWRP RECOVERY FROM THIS LINK:

problem with idol 3 4.7 6039K
Hi there,
I don't know if this is the correct section, I hope so, otherwise I really appreciate you can drive me to the appropriate one, it's new for me this forum!
I have an idol 3 4.7, where I have installed kingroot and after I took out (I didn´t reset the phone, Just unistall the app),
yesterday i received the update system message, I imagine for the marshmallow update, so I say Yes, install it.
But the phone entered in bootloop. I only have the initial screen with the options as Reboot system, adb and so on.
I tried to wipe but nothing. So now my phone stucked. I tried with an assistance center in Quito but they could't
My questions are:
may I use this system for 6039K?
Or does anybody hear about a solution in this case?
Should I open and take out the battery?
Please, any suggestion will be really welcome in order to make the phone work again.
P.

But the phone entered in bootloop. I only have the initial screen with the options as Reboot system, adb and so on.
I tried to wipe but nothing. So now my phone stucked. I tried with an assistance center in Quito but they could't
My questions are:
may I use this system for 6039K?
Or does anybody hear about a solution in this case?
Should I open and take out the battery?
Please, any suggestion will be really welcome in order to make the phone work again.

Hi ! I follow the guide up to the section 9, unfortunately, in the Panasonic Firmware Eluga and Extract after pressing download it stops after 2% and I have got the error message "load nprg error error code 5002". Does someone know how to fix that ?
Thanks !

Tell me info About your phone? Model,Country,ROM...../?
All is standard, no root, no twrp and the latest software from alcatel, the model is 6045Y. But all of a sudden my phone decided to random reboot and it didn't stop
So i looked to unbrick it and came with a couple of options, first i tried to sideload software but that didn't work, than i tried it with Mobile upgrade from alcatel and that didn't work.
Than i saw this thread and tried it twice but after Panasonic and the sound it starts to reboot again. Now i'm trying again with Mobile upgrade.
All that is changed is the recovery interface it looks now like it is from MM.

More Looks like Hardware Problem Try again with Mobile q if not works...Send to warranty repair.....
Alek, thank you for this great guide. It saved my 6045k model.
I was messing around with AlekOS 3.0, had issues with lock screen and experimented with modems. I managed to permanently disable secondary sim slot (was using famewolf's modem backups). I forgot to copy modem.img backup to my PC! Also tried bunch of TWRP backups with no luck. My last hope was Mobile Upgrade Q and reverting back tu 5.0.2. Unfortunately with no success (only one sim slot is recognized again).
Finally I found this thread, followed the guide and I can confirm that it did solve sim issue. The setup finished with no errors that you mentioned. It got stuck at 45%, but after a while (10min) it completed successfully.
Cheers!

bootloader and fastboot / recovery mode every thing gone

i have a problem with my moto g4 plus / moto g4 i was trying to unlock bootloader and trying to install twrp in my phone but i didnt succefully install twrp or unlock bootloader now i only show blank screen .. i cant entered in fast-boot or recovery mood when i press volum + or power button its show boot mood options when i select any option its just goes blank and nothing happend.. when i press volume down + power button its not responding and nothing happen ... when i connect with pc/laptop it conneting and reconneting and in device manager it only show mediatek android usb com something like this ...... please help me
Can you tell us the procedure you were following to unlock your bootloader and try to flash TWRP?
When you press volume down and power key, do you see the normal fastboot screen (not sure what you mean by boot mode options)? Do you see text like AP Fastboot Mode (secure), a green Android like this image? https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ei3vCdq3jn0/maxresdefault.jpg
Sounds like you may have to try a cache wipe or factory reset, or a stock ROM re-flash. Can you tell us what stock ROM you had on your device before attempting to unlock your bootloader?
EDIT - wait, you're seeing Mediatek Android USB...? Can we see a screen shot of the Device Manager for your device please?
i try multi procedures but at end i try fastboot oem unlock and after this i start my phone its not starting and only moto logo appears after this i try to flash twrp by fastboot flash recovey twrp.img and when i install i start in recovery mode its stuck on recovery screen and after some time rebbot and stuck in boot loop

Hmm, that's very odd - so you requested the unlock key from Motorola, booted your device to the bootloader, entered the key with 'fastboot OEM unlock <the unlock key>', did your device then erase itself and then reboot? Similar to what is described in this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67031801&postcount=2
Also, did your bootloader look like this : https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ei3vCdq3jn0/maxresdefault.jpg or like this : https://i2.wp.com/blogthetech.com/w...Fastboot-Mode-on-MTK.jpg?resize=819,369&ssl=1
What concerns me is that you mentioned your device is presenting itself to your computer as a Mediatek device (rather than Motorola or Qualcomm). Can you confirm this with a screenshot of your Device Manager and confirm you do have a Moto G4/G4 Plus?

If you have Google drive or Microsoft one drive, then you could upload to there and share the file link.

Ah, that's a boot screen from a phone with MediaTek processors. This matches with you mentioning that the Device Manager on Windows is detecting a MediaTek USB connection (the MediaTek preloader USB vcom). I see it's the same as what you uploaded.
The big problem here is that genuine Moto G4/G4 Plus devices come with Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 CPUs, not MediaTek, and don't present themselves as MediaTek devices to a computer. Unless you've been mistakenly sold a Moto E4/E4 Plus (which have MediaTek CPUs in them), on the available evidence thus far, I'm concerned you may have bought a fake clone G4/G4 Plus.
It could be that someone has somehow flashed MediaTek firmware onto a Moto G4/Plus, but I'm not sure if that is even possible, as the Snapdragon bootloader would likely block such a firmware flash. A boot screen from a genuine Moto G4 that is not modified was shown here: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ei3vCdq3jn0/maxresdefault.jpg You'd normally get to this by powering off, then hold the power and volume down keys together.
I don't have any experience repairing such devices, and the guides here only will help you with Snapdragon/genuine Moto G4 devices. All I can do is point to guides like this https://www.engineerthink.com/blog/...ediatekmtk-android-phone/?PageSpeed=noscript' and hope you can find some firmware for this particular device. I hope that posting here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help might get you some assistance as well.
EDIT - What happens if you select normal mode, does your device boot?
Otherwise, I hope you can get your money back.
By the way thanks alot for helping me
is chaning of mother board will help me or not ??
i forget to tell you one thing my phone not showing in pc permanently its detected and flash for 1 sec and disappers from device manager and doing this process continusly

Changing the motherboard, if there are spare motherboards that will fit your device, will be expensive, and may cost more than what you paid for the device. Are you hoping to try putting in a Moto G4 motherboard? Also, we don't know if the other components in the device are genuine or possible fakes as well, so you may have a genuine motherboard but low quality parts (e.g. the camera) that will impair your experience.
I'd try selecting normal mode in that boot list, see if you can get it booting again. Or perhaps try a factory reset from recovery, if you're willing to do so (as this will wipe your data).
Apologies about this - the evidence you've presented matches up unfortunately. I hope that you can get a refund from the seller for selling a non-genuine device if you so choose.

Hmm, can you check if the USB cable is plugged in fully and securely, and in a fully working USB port on your computer? Does it keep happening if you keep the device still, or get worse if you move the device around whilst still plugged in?
i try nothing happend when i connect another phone work fine
i dont know what to do know i think its better to leave it

Completely dead after updating

So I downloaded the Android 7.1.1 and installed it via the update tool on the phone. I have not rooted, nor was I running a custom rom.
Everything went fine, until I looked over and noticed the phone was turned off. I figured it was part of the process, but after leaving it, nothing happened. I now can not power the phone on(It won't even vibrate to indicate it is trying)
The LED is also not turning on when I plug it in.
Any ideas?

Couple of questions:
1. Where did you download Nougat 7.1.1 from?
2. Did you get any message when you unzip the file?
3. Did you notice anything unusual during update before you realised the phone didn't turn on?
Try if you can get into recovery by holding Power and Volume Up. If you can, try updating from there. That is, copy the update zip to the external sdcard, find Apply update from external sdcard, press the Power button. Let it finish then Reboot.
Good luck

I found it online, based on the link it looks like it is from ZTE's russia page.
This could be why it happened?
I got no messages at all. I just selected to install from an SD card in the settings menu, and it started everything.
As best as I can tell, it went out while the little android guy was on screen.
Can't get to recover, phone won't power on at all. Tried holding the power button for 45 seconds and that also did nothing.

I downloaded from ZTE Russian site as well and updated fine. Nothing wrong with the software.
As you can't even boot into recovery, I'm afraid your phone is permanently bricked. I'm at my wits end. Maybe someone else has a better idea.

@ viper98,,
In you case, you can send your phone to repair center. This issue might not be fixed by flash or TWRP.
Thanks!

hi. could you please let me know exactly how you did this?
mine is totally dead, no buttons work, not detected by pc in any way.
made a deepflash cable....nothing
only a tiny dash at the corner of the screen, blinking when connected to pc.
if I open the phone and shortcircuit the test point would I get the COM port detected?
this is all I need, but I thought what you did was the same as the deepflash cable does?
PLEASE!!!! I killed it trying to roll back to android 6 after upgrading to 7 loosing my imei,.
now I don't care about imei, just bring it back to life. but to be honest I think mine is gone forever.....
did you remove the battery to make sure the phone was not in charging mode? please....how did you do it?
Thanks in advance
EDL-MODE Test-Point method
1. Open up your phone and disconnect the battery
2. Circuit test-point
3. Use deepflash cable and push button
4. Connect the battery
5. Push button on deepflash cable or change to regular usb cable when you see HS-USB Diagnostics 9008 in device manager. Flash edl recovery image with miflash.
Only Deepflash Cable method without opening phone
1. Use deepflash cable and push button
2. Press power key
3. Look for HS-USB Diagnostics 9008 in device manager.
With the right deepflash it's the same as using test-point. It was not that easy to open the phone. This one from ebay is the only deepflash cable that worked for me, tried my own homemade without success. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-in1-Deep...140594?hash=item3af2795332:g:8kgAAOSw-QZZyfgH

After 2 months I also recovered mine from its "deep afterlife".
The above procedure was quite straightforward, actually all you need is patience, skills to open the phone to begin with, perseverance, but most of all...... faith!
To be honest I'm not sure how, but after the test point nothing happened, and I left my phone plugged in, battery disconnected, and left it alone for a while to finally hear the windows driver sound.......at the end it worked. Thanks a lot.

[Hard Bricked] Mi A1 in Qualcomm EDL mode, can't get MiFlash to work

Before anything, let me state that there is no official Xiaomi tech support centers in my country, nor any offhand tech support houses that deal with Xiaomi devices. I don't know where to proceed here, and I haven't found any solutions online, so any help would be greatly welcomed.
So, my phone suffered some kind of freezing and after forcing reset it entered EDL mode (doesn't turn on, doesn't enter into fastboot, LED blinking in rapid intervals, PC recognizes it as Qualcomm HS 9008, the usual.)
EDIT: The issue is now different. I'll attach an error log below.
Basically, it stays on "ping target via firehose" before throwing this abomination of an error chain:

The cable works fine, and other cables yield the same results. Using different ports or another computer doesn't help either.
Again, I'd be immensely grateful for any kind of help you could provide here.

Use a different USB port it worked out for me.

Update: managed to get past the whole hello packet thing, but I'm hitting another barrier now.
Miflash displays "ping target via firehose" for several seconds until it displays "the write timed out" followed by a long as heck description of the error.

I took a look at it, but what I understood from it is that you need to kick into fastboot and run some commands, which I can't since I cannot access fastboot mode
Edit: added an error log to the OP

Nop. Those fastboot commands are only to enter edl mode. But you are already in edl mode.
Try with that tool.
And did it worked out for you? I am getting a null message when restoring backup with low level app from @CosmicDan

Just tried cosmicdan's tool, it didn't work
I also tried flashing on QFIL again and it doesn't work either
You should probably tell us how you got to this point. That could help us decide if its broken on a hardware level or not. Usually QFIL will get you out if you do it right. But, in special cases, it wont.

In my case Miflash and qfil are flashing both successful but phone don't go on after flash. Led blinks white when I put him in the charger but don't charge. BTW I am using the test point method because my phone don't go in fastboot.

I left the phone next to me for 30 minutes while browsing the web, picked it up, saw that it was frozen and hard reset it by holding the power button. Then it got like this.

I've had my phone a few times act in the same manner, but I had flashed Custom Roms, so maybe a bug in the Rom, but the point is, when I did things in the usual manner, just pressing for the normal amount of time it typically takes to power it on, go to fastboot, recovery etc., nothing worked, which sounds a bit like you.
SO, I was really in a panic thinking my phone was dead, but then I just held the buttons down for as long as it took and the phone rebooted.
So if you didn't try, hold down the buttons for up to 1 minute and see what happens, just play back and forth and hold them for a long time.
I can't tell you why, but sometimes it just gets bloody stuck and takes a lot of back and forth trying to get it to boot.
Try in this order and see;
1. Hold down power button down for 1 min
2. Hold buttons down for fastboot for 1 min
3. Hold buttons down for recovery 1 min
When I did it in this order, it eventually booted into recovery for me.
good luck

Tried this a few times in the order you described, and a few more switching up the steps, but had no luck.

After flashing in qdloader mode connect your device to pc and see if it recognize somthing or not
If port 900E detected tell me to guide you
But if doesnt found any device i think you didnt connect battery cable

Battery cable is in after flash but for me it doesn't do anything after words. The phone don't get detected by pc only a white led keeps blinking. It doesn't matter which button combination I use phone don't boot up. Strange thing is after flash the phone got recognize by charger and gives a white blinking led.
Hold the power button for a second then relase the power key and try to going into fastboot mode and then flash with Mi Tools
