Bricked ALE-L04 - P8lite General

So my P8 Lite (ALE-L04) is bricked. I bricked it by accidently flashing [MOD]☆ SystemUI 4G to LTE ☆[B170][TWRP] and [MOD]☆ NavBar 26x26 ☆[5.1.1][B010][TWRP]. Not realizing it isn't compatible with the firmware on my device until it was too late. What am I supposed to do to unbrick it? Bootloader is unlocked and so is FRP.

can you start (any) recovery, or can you start something ...?

Any chance you could let us know what you did? Just in case in future someone will have a similar issue.

Well I put the phone in fastboot mode and flashed the stock recovery, then I put the lastest update on the sd card and it was able to factory reset from that file.

How did you put it in fastboot?

Just got my first Motorola with this phone, but think I borked it by messing with the radio bands. How does one flash these .xml or .sbf files to restore to original stock?
failed flashing process..unknown fastboot comand
I'm grabbing this for my friend, he can't get the update because he needs Wi-Fi and the phone won't connect to our University's Wi-Fi network. This won't break OTA for him though will it?
It's just as same as if you have applied OTA.
what is the update process?

so what exactly is the update procedure?
Here's what my phone is showing me.
system version: 77.1.7.MB886.ATT.en.US
android version: 4.0.3
Will this update change anything with the bootloader or anything like that?

If you got 4.0.3 we need a copy of your OS before you upgrade. 4.0.3 has vulnerabilities that we need to get root. Sorry I don't know the procedure, but I am sure some dev will be more than willing to tell you.

Just saw this and need to let you know not to do any soft of fastboot or updating without backing up your files. The worry is you flash a retail bootloader and possibly cannot go back if you use these.

yeah, that's why i'm holding out... battery life sucks on the 4.0.3. it barely gets me 8-9 hours with moderate use. i've noticed there are huge drops in the battery level every now and then. i guess i'll just deal with it until we get the root thing sorted out.
is there a way to just mount the system.img.ext4? i've tried ext2explore and i've tried to mount it with Linux Reader. thanks

Help me unbrick my LG P880

Rebooted and black screen of death.
Just a vibration to confirm that it is booted up

These phones usually don't brick too easily. If you can get into download mode then you probably aren't bricked.
Maybe try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471370
In the future don't mess with the baseband if you don't know what your doing.
Edit:
If you can't get download mode. There is still a chance but you must use linux.
This guide is for a D8XX so DO NOT USE ANY OF THE FILES LISTED THERE:

Here's the post where I saved my vs980 from a brick. Couldn't get to system, recovery, or download. It's likely the same guide Ploxorz just linked.

What all did you flash to try to go back to 5.0? You should never try to downgrade the bootloader (motoboot.img) or the partition table (gpt.bin).

Flashing just system.img doesn't brick so either you did something else or this is a hardware problem.

Moto X bricked after update

Hi !
I have a big trouble with my Moto X since I bricked it after trying to update the OS.
I was on LP 5.0 and I saw somewhere that an update was available so I searched for that and launched the update.
The problem was I didn't know that it's dangerous to do so with a rooted phone...
So, now, my Moto X is staying on the "splash screen" and if I force the power off, the Moto X restarts... and stays on the splash screen, again...
Is someone can help me to unbricked my phone ?
Thank you very much for your help :highfive:
A+
Edit : for information, it's a French Moto X 2014 (so I think it's a XT1052)
Smh
Can you get into fastboot? From off, hold volume down and touch the power for a second and continue holding volume down.

Yes, but I don't remember if I update the bootloader.
The choices I have are :
- Normal powerup
- Recovery
- Factory
- Barcodes
- BP Tools
- QCOM
Thank you for your help
You're not bricked then. I don't know what the recovery instructions are for the French model. Do they have factory images on the support page?
You can volume up on recovery to get into recovery to see options about clear cache and factory reset. Those might help, but I doubt it. I would try.
If you care about your data you can adb pull in recovery to get stuff off your sdcard before you factory reset.

You should search for it online and post in the Motorola forums that their OTA messed up your system and ask them for the files. And email and chat and ask them that way too.

Put your phone in bootloader mode, connect to your computer and start Motorola Device Manager to see if MDM can repair your phone.
Go into recovery (volume up to select). Try a factory reset and clear the cache first. Attempt to reboot.
Then follow JulesJam advice and try MDM
In the bootloader, the bar code option will tell you your phone version to see if you have the XT1092 (volume up to select)
If that doesn't work, you'll have to go to the link I gave you and flash the 1092 images.
or send it back to motorola

I don't think that is how it works outside the US. I think they have to send it to service centers where they decide whether or not it is a warranty issue and if you have rooted or unlocked the bootloader, they refuse the warranty service. At least that is how it is in Brazil.
AFAIK, only the Pure Edition maintains its warranty if you unlock and root.
I know with my XT1096, the qe is now 1/1 after MoFo so I worry that I couldn't get warranty services for it. Good thing I have MotoCare and if I end up with a problem, I am just dropping it in a bucket of water so that it can't be turned on again and paying the $39 deductible.
I didn't say it was on warranty. That's why it should be the last option. I imagine Motorola owns the service centers so you would still be sending it to Motorola.
I wouldn't worry too much about flashing those images. It should work if nothing else does. I think there's also another forum about how to convert the 1092 to a 1095. You can do that if you really want the 5.1 right away. You have to be mindful of the radios though.

Let me tell you first that it isn't bricked yet, This thing is happening only because you tried to update your device with a custom recovery, to solve the issue you have to go on stock recovery and on the stock Rom as well. That's it and it will work again..
But keep in mind never downgrade, i mean don't flash a lower Rom than what you are on right now otherwise it may surely result in a Bricked Phone:what:

The problems are when you try to downgrade the bootloader and/or partition table or when you downgrade after upgrading and then take an OTA.
Thanks to everyone !
I think that I will try to flash the image because using the MDM doesn't fix anything. But it was written that my current version is :"22.121.1.victara_oraeu.oraeuall.en.eu".
Furthemore, I had this problem when I was trying to install an update. Do you think it's a downgrade if I flash the available version of system.img ? And consequently I risk a real brick ?
Edit : an other question : on the tutorial that explain how to flash a img, it's written that we need to use "Motorola fastboot utility " and not the Android fastboot utility. I installed the sdk android and the MDM program, but the sole fastboot program a have is the android one. Do you know where I can find the Motorola fastboot utility ?
Thanks again )
Hi everyone !
Finally, I decided to launch the flash with the stock rom for XT1092. And it perfectly worked !
I still have a two questions :
- why I don't have anymore the update Moto proposed me at the benining ? Moreover the stock flashed seems to be an old one.
- In the futur, if a need to do an update, how can I do to avoid this problem ?
Thank you very much once again )

What Android Version are you running - go to settings and find out the android version. Also, what bootloader version are you running - put the device in bootloader mode, it is a number beginning with a 60.
