[Q] Is my Moto G dead? (Bricked) - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I have one serious problem, well my moto g just bricked him self, so i've been installing cyanogen mod 12 to in, and it was runing it for few days. One day I woke up and see that it was bootlooping. Now I cant even go to bootloader with button combination, it is only bootloping form powering to motorola logo and back, I tried to flash it as a dead device but no sucess, can anyone tell me solution to this problem, or anything else, thank you in advance.

You can't turn it into fastboot mode? Like with both Power and Volume Down pressed ?

Did you try to force it to power off (power + vol up + vol down)?
After that try to enter fastboot mode.

of course (naravno brate ) but it doesn't want to turn itself off

Stupid question but have you got the power plugged in? I've had some boot problems. So you've tried vol down and power combo and vol up and power separately? From dead. Not holding once bootlooped?

I've tried that already but the mobile phone can't turn itself off until the batery runs out of power...it is continually bootlooping while on power plug

Onda pričekaj da se isprazni baterija pa probaj onda
Try to full discharge battery , maybe this will help.

Moto G 1. generation had same problem.Did you try to hold vol- and power for 2 min while on charger?
Some peopele solved that by connect phone with PC while holding vol- plus power for 20 seconds

boot into fastboot flash stock rom or visit sc and tell fake story to agent

Tell me the exact command you entered.I bricked a desire s before flashing a recovery.img as a kernel (i know it is strange but i did it).
Does the screen just remain black?
Do you have a working Odin 4.43 setup?
Start Odin as admin, connect phone via USB and try:
1. Booting into download mode with Volume-Down + Home + Power
2. Regular booting
If at any point Odin reacts and can see your phone you will be ok and can flash a stock firmware to restore your phone.

I'm rather sure you have problems with reading.
- turn your OB off
- remove the back
- take the battery out
- hold vol+ button and plug USB in
It is not always needed to remove the battery but it helps sometimes especially when nothing else works, had it once myselfe where that was the only way I could get into SW upgrade mode.

Same problem here, phone is completely dead.
When holding the power button, nothing is happening.
Also not when removing battery, holding VOL+ and inserting the USB cable.
I think, I need to send it to the service center.

If OB is doing nothing at all it's a hard brick => service.
If OB's screen is showing something like 'security error' it's a soft brick => you can do a lot (like 'sw update' and use SFT)
So it's a difference of more than 5$.

i tried with normal combination vol up + vol down + home + power for recovery and vol down + home + power for download
neither works
Not sure but i think you bricked your device... Sorry i cant help you
Pres " Home + Power " and keep pressing both for a few seconds untill you you enter Recovery Mode ,
Or " Vol up + Home + Power " to enter download Mode ..
if both ways did not work .. so you have to go to Custom Cares.
good luck.

When you put your phone on charger, is the battery icon appears or not?
If it doesn't appear, you don't have a chance of recovery it.
Try buying USB jig and flash stock via Odin. That's how I unbricked my Mini 2

I think what should be focused on first is getting juice back in that battery. Plug it in to the charger and let it sit for a few hours (like, at least 8 hours). It may boot loop but maybe it will still get some juice? (not sure about this..). Then you can try again to get into Flashmode. (Are you experienced in flashing stock FTF's with flashtool?)

After that maybe your phone will be able even to enter the fastboot mode

Its on charge for more than 3 hours.
Your phone might be powered on but be unresponsive. Hold power and volume up for 15 seconds. The phone should vibrate once at about 10 seconds. Keep holding the keys for another 5 seconds and it should vibrate 3 times and power off.
You should then be able to connect in flashmode/fastboot and get your device booting.

This happened to me when I accidentally flashed a Xperia z1 ftf to my Xperia z all I had to do was get a full stock Xperia z ftf get Flash tools ready and when it says to plug phone in flash mode you press and hold all 3 buttons (power,vol+and vol-) all at the same time till it vibrates once then let go of the power button and vol+ but keep holding vol - while plugging in the usb cable this will boot your phone into flash mode
And remember to have all wipe options ticked in flashtools

Did you try the hard power off key combination that I suggested above? If the phone is powered on but unresponsive, then you cannot connect in flashmode. It needs to be powered off.
Out of interest, which kernel did you flash?
