I have successfully recovered my dead/hard brick moto g4 plus mobile using below process.
To give you background, I have hard bricked my new moto g4 plus mobile. To do that, I have unlocked boot loader which void my warranty, then I have rooted yet and got root access. Till that it was working. After that I have installed custom rom cyanogenmod 14.1 . It was still working for some days. Now As I came from blackberry z10 to moto, I was missing blackberry hub features, so I downloaded BlackBerry android OS(Blackberry Priv) and tried to flash it. that's it, it stopped working. I know it was stupid things to do . I have given mobile to service center, other few famous mobile repairing shops, but no one was able to do anything.
My mobile was dead for almost 1 month, I tried lots of option, including MI flash tool, QPST(QFIL) etc. but didn't get it thought it. For current options also I was working for couple days, after that I got the solution.
Let start work now.....
------------------------------------------------------
There are two parts for this tutorial,
Part1 - make your device bootable/softbrick/start in recovery mode. This is difficult part and most of us stuck here only. We need to make device from hard brick to soft brick. Should work for all Qualcomm devices(except hardware failure).
Part2 - Flash ROM to your device. This is easy part and there are lots tutorial/information available to flashing ROM into device. It will be dependent on individual devices.
Part1:- -
Make your PC into Test Mode.
Then run “CMD” or “Windows Terminal” as administrator and type:
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
Download QualcommDrv.zip from here , extract to an empty folder, then open the folder according to your Windows type (x64 or x86) and double click dpinst64.exe (if you have 64-bit Windows) to install the Qualcomm driver
now please connect your Qualcomm Mobile to PC or laptop Your phone should now being detected as “Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008” and the driver version 2.0.8.7 (please check it through Windows’ “Device Manager”). If its not detected, then you can keep mobile connecting to computer and press power button and volume down button.( This is for motorola g4 plus and can be different for your mobile. )
Now you have your mobile connected to computer, now follow the below steps.
Please download zip " blankflash1.zip" from location here extract it your computer and goto extracted folder and click blank-flash.bat
It will start in command prompt and detect device on your computer port(eg. COM5, COM8 etc).
If process completed successful then your mobile will restart into bootloader screen and your hard brick problem has been resolved. after that you can reboot into recovery by pressing power and volume down button again if required. Once you are in recovery mode then you can flash correct stock ROM into your mobile. Refer below Part2 for this.
If above didn't work and you are getting error like below..
Code:
C:\Users\Vijay\Desktop\blankflashathene\blankflash>.\qboot.exe blank-flash
Motorola qboot utility version 3.40
[ -0.000] Opening device: \\.\COM5

[ 4.072] Total time: 4.072s
FAILED: qb_flash_singleimage()->sahara_greet_device()->change_mode()->do_hello()
->IO error
Or any other error, then its little tricky to solve this.
Follow the below steps.
1. Keep your mobile connected using USB, obviously.
2. using one hand keep power button and volume down button pressed at same time and using other hand click blank-flash.bat file.
3. It might be possible that blank-flash.bat scritps get finished earlier, in that case, keep clicking .bat file continuously, you don't need to close previous cmd window. For me it took 5-6 run to get script detect/communicate with device. Here idea is that your mobile should get detected when you press power button+volume button while blank-flash.bat file is still executing.
4. keep trying step 3 unless you dont see below logs.
Code:

[ 7.392] Rebooting to fastboot
[ 7.392] Total time: 7.392s
5. once this is complete then you mobile will boot in bootloader/recovery mode, or you can go to recovery mode using volume up/down button.
After this, your mobile would be detected using adb(android driver), and you can execute fastboot commands.
Note: blankflash1.zip file is working for motorola moto g 4 plus, it should work for other mobiles also. If that doesn't work with your mobile then try with blankflash2.zip and blankflash3.zip files. download here
blankflash1.zip -- is for latest mobile above android lollipop,
blankflash2.zip -- for android lollipop.
blankflash3.zip -- for Kitkat devices.
please try with 1,2 and 3 in order.
Step3 is the key for whole process. you may need to try multiple times while blank-flash.bat is running.
Once you reached here, Congratulations, your mobile is saved and back to life. next part flashing stock rom is very easy. I will try to find url for that.
you just need correct ROM for your mobile and steps to flash it.
Part 2 :
Below is url for motorola, you will get idea how to do it for your mobile by going through it.
Alternative, now you can give your mobile to service center or mobile repair shop to flash ROM.

1. Copy only singleimage.bin file from blankflash1 to blankfalsh 2 folder and run,
if not working then
2. revert above change, and only copy programmer.mbn in from blankflash1 to blankflash and run,
if not working then,
3. revert above changed and copy both programmer.mbn and singleimage.bin file from blankflash1 to blankflash2 and run.
please let me know the result.

you are really close of it because I was also getting error "Unexpected packet: 4. Was expecting: 3" then I tried few combinations of singleimage.bin and programmer.mbn files and it worked.
did you tried other combinations?

Ok. Sorry, Actually I tried many days and many ways. I dont remember each and every things but these are the steps which helped me to get things done. there might be few difference due to different mobile you have. I will check my system and will check if I get some more details/scripts etc.
Don't give up.

Poblema this in the singleimage.bin that is not for the model moto g4 play I need for this model

No, it's not because moto g4 play has another motherboard and moto g4 plus too.

OP says any Qualcomm device can be unbricked with this blankflash which is not true. This is only for G4/G4+. If you want to unbrick G4 Play you need that specific blankflash file, otherwise it will remain as a cute paperweight, duh
Will anyone from xda be able to create a blank image for this moto g4 play

i have here one xt1640 dead for ota OPJ28.111-22 upgrade.. is possible put in Fastboot for Blank Flash Repair?
I'd try the blankflash a few more times but it seems that blankflash does not work in rescuing devices updated to stock Oreo. Without access to a blankflash newer than 11/01/2019, we're stuck for options that don't require payment.
my wife plugged in her G5 plus into to plug last night and when she woke up it was turned off and doesn't respond to anything.. I tried using the volum - & power button to get it to recovery mode but it doesn't work. When I plug it in the white notification light blinks.. nothing has been tampered with (no custom flash or anything)
I browsed the forum and found some info at https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/help/solved-unbrick-hard-bricked-dead-t3585016 but didn't get it to work since it was for a G4 plus:
- set pc to test mode
- installed Qualcomm drivers
- when phone is plugged into usb on PC I get a Qualcomm Device in COM3
- I tried using a blankflash batch file using Qboot 3.4 I found on other threads on the site but didn't work.. thread mentions a 3.85 for Oreo but can not find it
Code:

There is no blankflash file for the Moto G5+ , such a file has to be leaked by some Motorola employee but that didn't happen. There is one for the Moto Z2 play but that one was for Nougat and won't work on Oreo, it was risky on 7.0 too. You can search it here on XDA or Google if you want to give it a shot nevertheless but if you can't reach fastboot mode to flash a firmware you're most likely out of luck.
