So for awhile I used a droid as my main phone and I flashed countless different roms on it. One day though it just went kaput on me, the led flash started flashing on and off whenever I tried to reboot it and I could not access anything including recovery or boot loader. Eventually the battery died and it would not charge again.
I recently was messing around with it and was able to revive it, would not boot up still but was able to get in the boot loader and eventually sbf it. The battery still wont charge(normally) which tells me at least one issue still exists with hardware. Other than that the phone works fine now on android 2.0. The problem is that I cannot upgrade it to anything higher than that.
The only .sbf I could get to both load and boot up successfully was esd20 anything else would just boot loop indefinitely, after rooting that and trying to go from there anything else also boot looped. I installed every recovery I know of from clockwork to spr to that rzr mod of it but none could flash without the same results(restoring a nandroid of that esd20 still worked though). I've tried different kernels as well to no avail. The first steps I did were an exact procedure that I had done before on the same phone successfully with a 2.2 sbf but now it just wont work.
I don't know if there could be some hardware issue causing these problems though I cannot fathom how when one firmware still works and would appreciate any insight that anyone has as to what may be the problem. Was planning on giving the phone to a young family member to play games on as soon as I managed to boot it back up but I don't want to deal with the compatibility issues with such an old version of android.
Hello , I have a Moto X first gen Verizon model . Stock Bootloader locked and non rooted. It was working fine and just randomly switched off and won't completely boot back up again, It is stuck at the Boot screen with The Moto X Blue Logo . Running 4.4.4 . I tried doing a reset it didn't work. I tried going into recovery it didn't work , it comes back to the boot logo.
Any suggestions ? Please help. ?

I would boot into bootloader mode and flash stock system.img and boot.img.

Thank you so much for replying.. Could you give me instructions on how to do that? Also where can I get the system files for my phone?
Kind of dissapointed that you created a thread, asked in multiple places, and PM'd me the same question/issue. Especially considering it was 4AM eastern time when you started asking... (non of us in the USA would have been on, or well, very very few would have been on)
For those watching... I've posted a few replies and suggestions after post 191 in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/help-thread-moto-x-question-t3032022/page8

I know , I am sorry , i was just really freaked out .. please go ahead and delete the other thread. I apologize.
Thank you so much for your patience and help. I have tried unlocking the bootloader and flashing stock firmware (both were succesfull) but the problem still remains , it is stuck on the boot screen. (earlier at the MOTO M Logo and now at Warning Bootloader unlocked screen) . There are no service centers where I Live so I can't send it to a service center , is there any last resort methods I could try ? Once again , Sorry and Thank you.

Did you flash using RSDLite? That is the safest thing to do. Also, did you enable USB debugging and authorize your computer?
If not using RSD lite, how are you flashing back to stock?
Also, have you tried installing Motorola Device Manager and letting it repair your phone? You get into bootloader mode and then plug your phone into your computer and start MDM.

I've struggled with a similar issue on an XT1053, though mine already had an unlocked bootloader. Phone freaked out, shut down, and now crashes every time a few seconds after it gets to the blue logo., and goes into endless bootloops. Here for more detail -http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/boot-loop-puzzle-t3080565
Since I've flashed the stock images a couple of times (which seems to work, or at least shows no errors), I think it might be a hardware or battery issue. I'll try MDM, but am not especially optimistic.
Had you installed any new apps? I had been playing a new driving game on the day it crashed, though it might be coincidence.
I have the LG L90 and recently the phone just wont boot past the bootloader. It kept stopping at the T-Mobile boot image. I look up how to reset the phone and that's what i did. Now the phone is stuck at the LG boot logo and wont turn on. Either way the phone was still stuck in a bootloop.
Now I've ever done anything to the phone, no USB Debugging, No rooting, No bootloader unlocking. So could someone please help me to figure this out. I'm trying to figure out how to make this thing work again, whether by flashing or what but the problem is the phone has never been rooted or tampered with.
What did you do? Are you rooted? Talk to Tmobile. They will gladly take it back and give you a new one because it sounds like a defect. They took back mine even when I was rooted
Okay here goes....
I have a LG G2 VS980 which I was attempting to downgrade to Kitkat. I used a VS98024a_11.kdz (not exact name, but similar) to downgrade and the LG Flash tool, with the 3 blocks as logo. Now this is on a Windows XP laptop. The flash all went well, but now the phone does not start. When I boot it up, it goes to an erasing screen and stays there. Any help? I can't reflash it, because LG Flash Tool says the phone disconnected. Please help, ASAP, I hope to have it working by Monday, as I greatly need it.
Were you ever able to find out how to downgrade to Kitkat? I have a replacement device running LP 5.0.2 and I am trying to downgrade as well and cannot find any information on how to do so, or if it is even possible. I hope you were able to get your phone straight!
Hey guys,
I made the biggest mistake and have been trying to find a solution. Long story short, I have bricked my Moto X xt1058. I can only load into the bootloader, which is locked. When doing any kind of boot, it will pop up a Motorola logo then go to a black screen.
After a few seconds you can sometimes see a green android guy that looks like it says no command quickly flash and go away.
Now my mess up was not paying attention to the ROM I was flashing and flashing a 4.4.4 rom to a 5.1 bootloader (30.BE).
Has anyone got a solution or any help for me?
Update:
Turns out, I needed to flash a newer 5.1 than I could find before. Flashed everything from the update and my phone booted after everything.
