Shoot. When its fully charged and unplugged, have you tried holding the Power and Volume Down buttons and then releasing about 5 seconds later?

The green light usually appears when it doesn't have enough juice to power the screen and show that its charging. If you really have charged your phone for several hours and the only thing you get from it is the green light, its very likely your battery is permanently dead. You could purchase a replacement battery and install it, either yourself or some shop. But, considering the software and now hardware issues you're having, I would just relieve your Moto X and look for a replacement.

Of course! Sorry for the late response, just went through my PM's today. Hopefully you have better luck on the next phone!

But when a Moto X has also hardbrick turn on the green LED.
You can try the trick of wire. (To do this you must open the moto x)

[Q] Help me pls.. I think I've really bricked my P990

Hi all kind bros and sis,
Please help me out as I think I've really bricked my less than 2 months brand new Optimus 2X..
You see.. I rooted my P990 using unlock root and chanced upon CM7 and thought of giving it a try. I installed clockworkmod and downloaded the stable release of 7.1 for Optimus 2x.. following the instruction to do a Nandroid backup and proceeded with the Mod..
Not knowing that I need to wipe everything including data.. I just selected the Dalvik cache wipe and proceed with the mod. The process went for more than 15mins and I saw some graphics (the android figure going round and round) but it just stuck there... the screen went blank and when I touched those home or back buttons.. they will lighted but nothing happens. I can't power it off also. So I manually took out the battery and put it back before powering up again. The android picture appeared again briefly for about 1 min and just hanged there. I took out the battery again and this time it was dead.. no matter what I press : vol + and power buttons together; home+Vol+ + power down; Vol- + power down.. all those do not revive the phone.
I tried taking out the external SD card and try powering up. The LG logo appeared and got stuck there.
I searched on Google and found the smartflashtool. I tried that and managed to install the NVidia boot recovery driver and stuff correct. Hold the vol+ button and power key before plugging in but the smarttool did not find the com port or communication driver whatever so I couldn't flash it back to stock.
I'm very desperate and stuck now... did I just accidentally burned the board or something? What bad luck I have
If that's the case, will I still be able to bring the phone back to LG service centre and get it repaired?
Please help me.. any kind souls out there. I really liked the phone and hoped to bring it back. else it's such a shortlived phone... really breaks my heart to see this..
Thanks in advance...

Try using SmartFlashTool, download the LG stock ROM (can be found here in XDA forum, i'll help you find the link), flash the .bin and .fls files.

Turn off the phone. Hold Vol-DOWN while plugging it in. Start Smartflash and see the com-ports magically appear.
Follow trymhansen's instructions. He helped me before with my softbricked phone.
I hope you get your O2X back to life! Keep us posted
Best of luck to you!
PS. I also believe you should pull out the battery after turning off the phone in Trym's instructions. Trym correct me if I'm wrong please.
Hi All,
Thanks for your kind replies. I did follow your instruction. Take out the battery (I removed the ext SDcard as well), press and hold -vol and plug in the phone via USB. Afterwhich start up smartflash tool.. still nothing happens and no com ports are found.. The version of smartflashtool that I used is Dec 2010. Do I need to get the latest one and also the LG united drivers installed?
I also tried starting smartflash tool before the sequence.. still the same. BTW.. my OS is Win 7. Is it supported?
Really at my end's wit. Hope I can bring my phone back to life soon and I'm not really bricking it. I heard Samsung phones are not that easy to brick and can get to the recovery mode pretty easily. is it true?
Please help me.. thanks
Hi bros,
Attached are my screenshots from the device manager and smartflash tool... both seems not able to find the phone and allocate a com port. I've tried installing the latest LG mobile driver 3.6 but no help as well
Have you followed instructions as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008070 ?
Also, try to attach your phone directly to computer, using usb ports from computer mainboard. I have experienced problems when attaching it via extension usb cord or attaching it to computer case ports. (I hope that you can understand what I have mean to say with usb )
Hi Memhis,
Yes.. I followed exactly the instructions from the thread and I've plugged into a USB port directly to the computer which is one of the ports in front.. not via any extension or USB hub.. still it did not detect.
I'll try to use another computer which is running Win XP and try again. I've downloaded those 3 files from that thread you recommended try using those instead.. hope it can be detected this time else I think I'll have to send to LG service for repair tomorrow.
I've been jailbreaking and modding my Iphone a lot and everytime whenever there's a near brick situation.. I'm able to fix it but not this time with an Android or LG perhaps... I hope I don't have to go to the extend of using ADB low level to push some files which I saw in one of the thread that one of the guys did that.. but I doubt I can since my windows can't even detect the phone!!
Maybe this will be my first and last LG phone if I ever get it repaired...

launch smartflashtool first, extract the .fls and .bin files, hold down volume at the same time plug in the usb port to your comp. you must see a s/w updating logo in your phone's screen and smartflash should detect your phone. then click start!

Hi mrgian,
I just tried to revive my phone by using the same method on a different laptop running on Win XP.. plugged directly to a side USB port but still no luck. There's no s/w updating logo appearing on my phone and smartflashtool also failed to detect my phone. I've found another thread opened by another user and my situation is exactly the same as his :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161583
But lucky for him is that he's able to get it working after changing to another PC but I've tried 3 different machines and no luck so far...
I'll try to use the NVflash as a last resort and see if I've any luck with NVflash at all.. If it failed again.. I think I've no choice but to send it to the repair centre for servicing then..

Yes.. I've installed the latest LG united mobile driver version 3.6. Any wrong with that version... Really don't know where / what is missing or my phone is really fried after just one mod attempt?
I've also tried NVflash and it's stuck at the "bootloader initialization" screen....
Nothing appeared on the phone... not even LG logo. Can't believe LG phones are so fragile and unmodifiable

When you say an USB port in the front do you mean an USB in the back? Because the ones in front are the case ones, the ones in the back are the good ones, i.e. the ones that are directly attached to the mobo.

I plugged in the phone with battery but there was no charge logo or whatever.. the screen remains blank.. I'll try to leave it charging and see what happens. But I've remembered there was still about 80% power when this disaster happened and I've taken out the battery since.. so the charge should have remain? Btw.. where can I get this ext3 back.zip and how to use it? thanks

So you can go to download mode, but can't turn on the phone or go to recovery coz you only get the vibration, which suggest (ofc, lol) the phone won't even properly boot?
Everytime my battery is near zero and the phone shuts itself down and near total death, that's what happens. It just vibrates but nothing happen. IMHO, I don't think that you're facing bootloop or anything.
In your case, you said that you charged it and by the time you wakes up it's a goner. I would recommend trying a new battery for now. Your current one might be dead as in broken or something. Trying a new battery won't hurt.

I have the same problem, but a little different. I've thinked that was battery problem as you, i've bought a new battery, but nothing is changed. I was running JetMod. When my phone has low battery and than shut down i try to recharge it but doesn't work anything! if i try to turn it on it only vibrates (with black screen, nothing happened). The only thing that can i do is go to download mode, but for a few time becouse after 10 sec it shut down, so i think that it has not been charged.. I observe, when it was alive, when i try to charged it, that not many time he started recharging, i don't know why.. i've tried different plugs or with computer but it works only when it wants to..

I had same issue when i changed governor: cable plugged but battery don't charge ( i think )
Going to sleep, wake up and founded phone discharged.( when power up i had black screen and little vibration )
Remove battery, wait, insert battery, plug power cable, and wait if you see the battery logo charging.
Then Boot your phone.
If this not work ask to Samsung assistance

Problem on Charging the battery

Hello,
I faced a problem about 2 weeks ago till now.
It is When try to charging my HTC ONE, when the battery is about 90%, 90% to 100% gone very fast and the LED shows green. But when unplugged and plugged the charger again, percentage of battery dropped to about 90% - 91% and it charged fast to 100% again.
When I let its remain on green status and plugged, after about 10 minute, my device charged fully (I tested it again: first unplugged the charger then re-plugged. Battery status dropped to 99% and after 30 sec it shows fully charged)
What is the exact problem?
Thanks
You could try to calibrate it with app from play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ignisoft.battery.calibration

Are you using a pc suite manager application like "MOBOROBO" ? If yes, try uninstall, reboot, download latest version and re-install it.
Also you can try do it on HTC driver.

So I think you should go to check the device by HTC CARE Center
I wiped my cashe partition and after that I see the 99% till 96% again for example.
Also slightly lower discharing.
Instructions for the international unbranded version of the HTC One:
If he still has the same inconvenience after trying it several times, we also suggest him to perform a wipe cache partition. This process gets rid of all the temporary, unnecessary and junk data that slows down your phone and eventually causes to freeze or crash. It can also cause malfunction on the devices hardware such as the camera, internal memory or as it is in this situation the symbol described.
To do so please follow the steps bellow:
- Disable fast boot (Settings > Power > Fast Boot)
- Power off the device
- Press and Hold Volume Down while your device is off
- Briefly tap the Power button until Hboot appears (The white screen with three Android characters).
- Tap Volume Down to highlight recovery
- Tap the Power button
- When you see a screen with a red triangle and an exclamation point hold Volume Up
- Tap Power this will bring up the hidden recovery menu
- Tap Volume Down to highlight "Wipe cache Partition"
- Tap power to begin this process
- Once reboot system now appears tap Power.

T-mobile - Note 4 keeps rebooting even after updating to new firmware.

Hi Guys,
I have used my T-mobile Note 4 for years since it came out. I have replace the batteries once, but like a month ago when there was an update my phone keep restarting and turning off. I then had to get another phone because of that I still cant get it to restart even after I bought a new battery, updated the firmware. can some one guide me the right way to do this right. I think I am not doing the flashing the right way.. with oldin, and the correct firmware. after I do that I get this installing updates andriod show and it stops and reboots again. please help. thanks
- this phone was never locked before
- Replaced the battery once
- one day when there were a bunch of apps that needed update with probably 35% battery I let it update and after that it kept rebooting
- So installed the twrp recovery.tar.md5 from here that didnt help
- So then from sammobile I downloaded the latest firmware and installed it, that didnt help too
So the question is can I just wipe the whole phone and start fresh? -

download and install this using odin
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651442761499080
if that didn't fix Im afraid you have to do the factory reset using TWRP factory reset or android recovery reset

Thank you for your response, unfortunately this didn't work for me I did install the latest firmware , but the phone doesn't go to the stock recovery mode for some reason and keeps rebooting. it does say Recovery booting... but it shuts off. so I have no way to do that even if I keep pressing the volume up, power and the home buttons pressed then release the home and power and keep pressing the volume button.

So I tried this yesterday evening,
- I did install the latest firmware which was suggest in by one of the comments above :
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651442761499080
- then flashed it with philz recovery and did the factory reset and rebooted it but no luck.
- when restart the phone, its shows the Samsung note 4 logo then shuts off.
im afraid to say that your note 4 might bebroken now. If you go to the note 4 reddit, this has happened to many people and has something to do with the solder degrading after a few years iirc. Best thing you can do is buy a motherboard replacement for around 60 on eBay if nothing else works. I have replaced 3 note 4 motherboards for people i know that this has happened to.

- Ran into another issue where I am getting this 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.'
- For some reason the Oldin froze and I had no way to stop the download process.
- I tried using Kies to install the recovery but cannot, I did look for SM-N910T ...but nothing.

^^^This. I just had to replace our two Note 4 after years of service over the last two months. Same symptoms as yours. It is most assuredly hardware related.
Even "better", from the two replacements sent by TMo, one failed within the week. The replacement just abruptly shut off and doesn't turn back on unless the battery is removed for 20 min. or so.
However, once it turns on it freezes. Try to boot to recovery, it freezes before even loading it up. One time the screen display even corrupted on me.
So, tldr, it is time for a replacement MoBo. Good luck!

You have a bad battery, replace with this one dont buy off the eBay they are fake

The new battery may initially help, but it sounds suspiciously like the mmc is beginning to fail. Wakelock app set to option 4. Only thing that worked for me.

Flashed X Performance to XZ's. Won't boot, and cannot flash it again.

I was flashed X Perf. to XZs and won't work. flash mode too cannot work, only blinking green light, like a boot into flashmode and connect to pc, over and over. and nothing. pc don't see any device, like i did not booted into flashmode.
fastboot working, unlocked after bootloader, can flash, but wont flash custom rom, says size too large, before is flash properly already file.
i can erase all, can format all, twrp won't work properly. but can flash custom rom. when i flash rom, device gonna reboot over and over. and won't boot on.
i think maybe problem is in root memory of the phone, where is basic informations for next systems and data's. maybe if can someone backup all of that data's, and share, we can ressurrect our x per. who have same problem...
i don't know. if sombody knows how to ressurrect anwer there, or any help.
thanks for all

Sorry, I do not understand you perfectly?
you have an Xperia XZ, right? so you should flash a compatible ROM for XZ.
Why did you flash an X Performance ROM on your XZ phone?

i was flash, stock xz's rom, to x performance, and thats it
any solution ???
And u have bricked phone
1. I honestly wana flash XZ rom on XZs to try! since both are very similar devices!
2. wrong kernel means! device is STUCK on black screen! / sony makes beasts, / not easily to hard brick
3. PRESS POWER + VOLUME UP keys together and hold for 15+ secons untill xzs JERKS thrice! , release both button atonce,
4. now device is FORCE SHUTDOWN out from any bad flashing!
5. try connecting it in to flashmode now! , it should work! ,
6. if you ever able to boot in XZ or X, (android 6.01) build, try extracting drmkeys from xzs , you will be doing something WONDER !!!
7. if everything fails, the rubber band trick works! , tie across (horizontally) the xzs in a way that volume downkey is always pressed by rubber band. keep it overnight. the battery will drainout to zero and device will sleep. then connect to wallcharger, charge it overnight untill u see red blinking led and finally red led then NO led. at this point try connecting your device in flash mode
NEVER BOOT AGAIN! once you are out from this kernel! whenever device shuts down, immediatel connect it in flashmode

I can tell you a nice news, you're done with SONY. I think u can only revert ur phone if u change mother board, or maybe in test mode, i was not tried, im sold my bricked phone...
If u don't do it anything, collect money and buy some other brand... I moved on S8+. Big difference bettwen SONY, and Samsung is not great eithter, they appeared in circles under touch glass, but does not bother... "Difference is big"
P.S. Never try to flash/convert phone of different model number, to another. Advice, if buying new phone, look for international version.. no Japan, or China, or Korea models. Only Inter... Like (f8131, 8132[dual-sim], SM-G955F/FD... etc) and u will ged always newest firmware, and community, if u dont have latest, than flash... (flash other region which have latest already), but now u will not brick phone. Good luck
you are 100 percent right.
by the way i flashed many sony phone converting it to international but this x performance gave me a headache now. i took it to the software repairer and according to him the boot loader file is missing and cannot be found on internet so far. so the set is bricked right now and left it like it to the repairer shop and expecting may be any solution. but i guess nothing going to change any thing
will check how much i m getting if i sell it like in this condition
