am i bricked?

was running stock android with unlocked bootloader. wanted to install cm. used wugfresh nrt and rooted and installed twrp. then used twrp to flash cm and open gapps. everything did just fine. was running cm.
then found out i was not rooted?. then followed this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84D2-UnUIA4&t=38s to root.
ended up bricking? i can get to the start screen by entering bootloader mode but whenever i choose any option ....
start, restart bootloader, recovery mode, factory, etc.. nothing happens
i am able to use platform tools and run the command fastboot devices and it is listed.
i am getting failures when trying to run flash-all.bat and flash recovery
This is what i get when i try the flash-all.bat

Am i screwed? Seems like i should be able to flash twrp to have a recovery and then flash another rom.

If you're unlocked you can't be bricked.... Just flash the latest factory image and start all over..
I never use the flash all script, i flash all files individually. You can also use Nexus Root Toolkit to flash the image.

I think you're screwed. It messed up your partition table (that's what GPT is), AND in doing so probably destroyed the data that it had to "backup and restore".
There is a possibility that if you try a few more times to flash the bootloader (just the bootloader, DO NOT use flash-all.bat), and are able to get it successfully written, then you may be able to follow that with the rest of the partitions, but I wouldn't count on it.
Also, try this from a LINUX box. Windows is a bloated mess and introduces a lot of unknown variables. More bloat and more variables = less certainty of a successful outcome. In fact, I would NEVER suggest trying fastboot from windows, since you stand a much higher chance of sending corrupt data across the line. Unlike update.zip's, fastboot does NOT validate the data integrity.

OF COURSE you can brick an unlocked device!
All you have to do is delete part of the bootloader, and then you can no longer boot to fastboot.

NEVER use anything that is called a "root toolkit".
There is nothing special about root, it is as easy to add root as running "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

i have tried multiple times to just flash the bootloader and still no luck. i would say i am screwed. just went out and bought something cheap because i am getting ready to head away for the holidays. not sure what i might get myself after the holiday.
thanks for the help.

I've not done this with Windows and use linux but I've run into issues with fastboot if I don't run it as root. Try it again running fastboot as an administrator in Windows in case there are permission problems.
Also, show the output of fastboot getvar all.
Did you unlock the bootloader? fastboot oem unlock
How about booting directly into twrp?
fastboot boot recovery twrp-3.0.3-0-shamu.img
If you can do this you might be able to use a flashable image or perhaps for erase some partitions.

You in trouble son...
There is a restore brick thread... Where it talks about blankflashing...
Start there...
May the force be with you...

hi Guys
I'm in the forum for a very long time as an assistant helper now it has got me hard I have an Axon 10 Pro with curly boot loader and trying to flash a TWRP I have somehow the device or SotA and SlotB have shrunk. The Axon Bootet permanently in 0.5 second cycle and also a FULL Restot or FULL Flash with EDL Tool has not changed anything. Likewise, a new flash about fastboot with the command (fastboot flash boot_a boot.img) the same for boot_b then try with fastboot command (fastboot boot twrp.img) Recovery to start without success fastboot erase boot_a and boot_b has also flashing new but it does not start. Always bootloop

Attempted Root, No Longer Can Boot :(

Hello,
I was following the instructions here ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/dr...t-unlock-droid-turbo-6-0-1-mcg24-251-t3639618 )
When I then went to install "MagiskManager" , upon rebooting, I found a "No Command" screen.
When I attempt to reboot it just sends me to the recovery screen. Anything I do there yields the same result of either "No Command" or recovery.
When I connect to my computer via USB it still recognizes as being connected , so I am sure I can bring my Turbo back to life.
Could someone point me in the direction of what I could do in this circumstance?
Thank you!

Hello,
After some fiddling and attempting to figure out how to push a recovery to my phone I reinstalled ADB/Fastboot and now my phone no longer sees that it is connected to a computer.
It just says "Connect USB Data Cable" at the bottom even though it says the battery is charging (( still only getting to the recovery screen ))
I have firmware from ( http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Droid Turbo/Firmware )
and I have the needed drivers installed.
How do I get the firmware onto the phone?
Thanks!

Did you try to root via. A custom recovery? If so what version of SuperSU, or magisk

To be clear I followed the steps found here ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4-play/development/root-autoinitroot-motorola-bootloader-t3639316/ ) specifically the "Install Step By Step" section.
This includes the link to the Magisk version I was using and all the commands I used with the phone.
It was after I completed the "Step by Step" instructions that I then opened the Magisk app, then allowed it to install it's tools. From there it asked for a reboot, I obliged, and now I am faced with the scenario I am in.
If there is anywhere else I can be more clear or provide more information please let me know.
At this point I'd just like to boot to stock if that's what needs to happen

Okay, did you unlock the bootloader using sunshine?
And can you clarify the model number of your device.

Howdy,
No, I did not use Sunshine as that was not described in the instructions
My exact device is "Droid Turbo XT1254" , it /was/ fully stock with latest OTA from ISP
I just ran through the Bootloader Logs again ( unsure if they are of any use ) but they say...
bab checked failed for boot
failed to verify bab image boot
failed to validate boot image: ret=-1
fastboot reason : fall-through from charger boot mode
bab checked failed for boot
failed to verify bab image boot
failed to validate boot image: ret=-1
boot up failed
I then scrolled to "Restart Bootloader" which brings me right back to the bootloader, but now the logs says:
Fastboot Reason : Reboot mode set to fastboot
Then when I use "Start"
bab checked failed for boot
failed to verify bab image boot
failed to validate boot image: ret=-1
boot up failed
If there is any other info I can give I'd be happy to. Thank you very much for your time!

Oka, that's the problem, I noticed that the forum you posted was about a different but very similar phone, when my phone was stuck I used this video https://youtu.be/6avEPGWB8E0
Disclaimer: it will completely wipe your system of everything and install android 5.1, even though it tells you to edit the files DO NOT, I edited then and it made it much worse.

Good morning
Howdy,
I am trying to method you have provided and I am running into errors because my bootloader is locked I believe.
When I run the RootJunky bat script I get error messages like these for each of the images it wants to push :

My phone knows it's connected via USB ( rebooting made the drivers work ) but when I do "adb devices" , no device is listed even though I am at the recovery screen.
Any further advice would be appreciated!

Update ( Still no good )
Howdy,
When I try
"fastboot devices" it returns
???????????? fastboot
:\ did I really kill kill kill my phone?

Hmmmm, that's strange. I don't think you killed it, try using a different micrusb, that fixed the problem for me when I was using adb

I'm going to go back to a dumb-phone if it's the USB cable that's messing me up... lol
I will give that a shot once I find a different one around here. In the mean time I did get "fastboot devices" to give me an ID string for the phone.
So, that's something

If that wouldn't be too much trouble to ask, I would really appreciate it
So if other people run into this issue, how about post it here so they can get the fix too?
And you will be glorified as the savior of the Turbos!

Will do

They are described in the instructions. You were just reading the wrong instructions. In that thread you are pointing to (in this Droid Turbo forum):
[Root && Unlock] Droid Turbo 6.0.1 mcg24.251-5-5
This is in the first post:
jcase said:
@autoprime got the initroot working with internet for Droid Turbo - https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4-play/development/root-autoinitroot-motorola-bootloader-t3639316/
While temprooted, SunShine will work to unlock the device again.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The temp root is meant to be used as a tool to then unlock the bootloader using Sunshine. You shouldn't even be messing with Magisk and stuff until after unlocking the bootloader with Sunshine.
In comments throughout that thread (in this forum), we make it clear the temp root is only to be used temporarily. On the very last page of that thread, I just recently told someone if they didn't unlock their bootloader and kept trying to use just the temp root, they did so at their own risk.
Maybe that wasn't your intent, to use the "temp root" permanently, but still you then went over to the temp root thread (in another device forum) and followed all those instructions.
The problem is the temp root dev, whom I respect, didn't really make that temp root thread for the Droid Turbo. He started it as a simple tool, but then later developed it into a very extensive system for perpetual root. He doesn't even mention Sunshine in those instructions, right? Whereas @jcase's post (in this forum) clearly mentions you need to use Sunshine to unlock your bootloader... So, you can see those weren't quite the right instructions...
Whereas this thread below (in this forum) is what you should have been using for root and unlock instructions. It mentions the same temp root as a tool to use to get Sunshine to work -- but WARNS to NOT follow all the temp root instruction thread.
[GUIDE] How to unlock your Droid Turbo bootloader, install TWRP and gain root access
6. !!!DO THIS STEP ONLY IF YOU'RE ON MCG24.251-5-5!!! Follow the instructions here to obtain temporary root:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4-...ader-t3639316/.
DO NOT perform the uninstall step, and ignore all steps that mention Magisk or Magisk Manager.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instead just simply use the temp root to then use Sunshine to unlock the bootloader, and you never have to worry about temp root shenanigans again. After THAT, then it even goes on to Magisk, TWRP and all other things.
Over HERE, in the Droid Turbo forum, the powerful temp root is only used as simple tool to get bootloader unlock and then permanent root and custom recovery.
I'm very sorry for your problems, but I hope this warning helps other people.

That all makes far more sense now, thank you very much for setting me straight with this information.

My exact device is "Droid Turbo XT1254" , it /was/ fully stock with latest OTA from ISP
I just ran through the Bootloader Logs again ( unsure if they are of any use ) but they say...
bab checked failed for boot
failed to verify bab image boot
failed to validate boot image: ret=-1
fastboot reason : fall-through from charger boot mode
bab checked failed for boot
failed to verify bab image boot
failed to validate boot image: ret=-1
boot up failed
I then scrolled to "Restart Bootloader" which brings me right back to the bootloader, but now the logs says:
Fastboot Reason : Reboot mode set to fastboot
Then when I use "Start"
bab checked failed for boot
failed to verify bab image boot
failed to validate boot image: ret=-1
boot up failed
If there is any other info I can give I'd be happy to. Thank you very much for your time!

Looks like you are flashing an old firmware, you must flash most recent version of XT1254 MCG24.251-5-5 if your device is Verizon carrier or just copy/paste all log from "fastboot getvar all".

Moto G5s Plus hard brick - help needed

Hi all,
So I have well and truly hardbricked my XT1803. Most probably arose as I foolishly flashed a Potter firmware to my Sanders phone. Teaches me for not reading everything carefully before going ahead to flash firmware.
Anyway, I'm now in the situation where I have hard bricked my device completely. No OS, no recovery, no bootloader. Strangely the device can be found if install the device on my PC as "Android ADB interface" and I can run fastboot commands in cmd (however nothing appears on the phones screen). I've detailed my getvar all details below if that helps!
I've tried re-flashing NPS26.116-61 on the device and this gives me an error at the first hurdle as per the below.
writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Validating 'gpt.default.xml'
(bootloader) Security version downgrade
(bootloader) Image primary_gpt failed validation
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
(bootloader) Cancelling 'gpt.default.xml'
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.096s
I've tried blank flash based on the G5 forums to see if this can boot some life into it, however the phone is not recognising as QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLoader 9008
If I force install of the QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLoader 9008 drivers, this just gives me the < waiting for device > if I run blank flash.
Fastboot getvar all as per the below - I've added some in bold as these have been purposely hidden.

Hi! What do you refer with software channel? Sorry i dont understand.

I did some research on this.. Your out of luck. Best is to sell it for parts not working. Or take it to a shop that specialize in phone repair.. Might cost you a $100, but it is better than buying a new one, which is costly.

Every region has a Software channel, you can check the name of your region's channel in the About Phone section

{help needed} Phone Unable to Boot: Falls back to Fastboot,

This Happened all of a sudden. Phone was running stock only , nothing ever altered. Seems like phone was trying to update itself and something wrong happened.
Oem is locked.
Software status says Modified
oem_get_unlock_data fails to retrieve device ID, says "unable to read datablock"
rest all say the screen shots.
Service Center denies availing warranty or software fix as software status says "Modified". Rather provided quote of INR 18k

this happened to me too once, and scared me as ***k
you got to delete the orphaned ota via fastboot
i am not 100% sure this is the exact command i used to fix my issue, but pretty much confident
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/fota
you can enter this either via fastboot or via recovery terminal

I am afraid if this can be done, as I tried to perform wipe using fastboot but all in vein. It throws error. Though Will give it a try.

I'm following this thread. I think the same thing happened to my GF phone a few days ago. It has never been boot loader unlocked . I'm out of town and need to fix it when I return .

I think when sanders 000000 phone is ****ed.... Should be xt1804,xt1805,xt1800....

A lot more info is garbage when fetched from fastboot .IMEI is null. Cif is 0xDEAD. Many other variable returns null or 000000000. I have given up on this phone as of now . Kinda busy these days.
I wish if there was a tool to force flash ROM .
But still, since memory seems inaccessible ,even that wouldn't have helped.

I just discovered that stock rom may be flashed even when the bootloader is locked.
But am getting error of pre-flash validation . I was wondering if someone could help me to choose right stock rom from here .

Firm ware i tried flashing was SANDERS_NPS26.116-26_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.
Someone please help me to skip pre-validation flash by suggesting someway to flash unconditionally or help me select right stock rom that passes validation.

Suggest using the most current firmware SANDERS_NPSS26.116-26-14_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC, it can be found on xda for downloading.
As far as i remember I had the same issue when having already been on a higher firmware version than the one I'm trying to flash.
good luck !

Yes, true. Afaik the firmware he tries to flash is EU as well ?! (SANDERS_NPS26.116-26_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC)
So the SANDERS_NPS26.116-26-14... is the newer version of SANDERS_NPS26.116-26, and therefore it should be the correct one? Or am I wrong ?

From reading the initial post, the opening poster appears to have an Indian device (quoting INR - Indian Rupees). Thus, flashing a firmware meant for EU devices and not for Indian devices isn't a good idea, especially for a device in this state. I think the correct Indian firmware would be NPSS26.116-61-8.
Unfortunately, those errors looks like the motherboard flash memory may be failing. You could try to flash this NPSS26.116-61-8 firmware https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746163614322262641 and see how you get on. If your device is still dead after flashing, unfortunately you may have to either pay to get the device fixed or purchase a new device.

This is so cool, I was in the exact fix and after flashing the EU firmware I had my radio off! I am gonna try this today evening once I am home.

Error remains the same. Unable to flash/prevlidate/writing failed /Remote error. All of it. I guess the phone is dead.

Any update? Even im facing the same problem
Holding volume down button first and then simultaneously holding power button all these for two minutes while connected to original charger did the trick for me yesterday
But the issue repeated again today and the fix doesn't seem to work
!!!!!!!
Got it serviced,they fixed it under 3 hours!

Great!
unluckily service center guys in my place know nothing except changing the board for something they don't want to understand.

Can you help me ...
the motorola support says that the phone need a software recharge at a service center, but the pandemian this are closed
I install:
MotorolaDeviceManager_2.5.4
rescue_and_smart_v5.0.0.25_setup
adb and mfastboot
The usb interface show by the phone pc conection "Motorola ADB interface"
I try recover with Rescue and smart assistant: rescue option select Moto G Plus (5th Gen S) model: XT1801 and show this:
Failed to natch the connected device. Reconect device, then try again.
I run the software and sho the phone model but dont reconize this when i select
I connect the celular phone by usb and conect

i softbricked moto g6 :(

so here i am, after 2 days of scrutinizing every corner of the internet, looking for solution. i had my moto g6 on pie but out of curiosity i wanted try out different roms and here is what happened:
- after ive successfully unlocked the oem lock, installed twrp and tried to install different roms just to run into error 255 and such i gave up and thought **** it lets go back to original rom, so i fired up fastboot and put back oreo that i downloaded from here, the splashscreen however was still bearing the 'device has been unlocked and cant be trusted' message, so i thought i would put back the oem lock and then formatted the device... ooops and thats when i started having these problems.
- since then i cant install any rom - stock or mod (i was however successful in flashing twrp back on the phone)
- fastboot says FLASHING_LOCKED and having tried maybe 6 different stock roms i noticed that i can flash these two lines without problems:
./fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
./fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
but anything after that is giving me (bootloader) flash permission denied FAILED (remote failure) in powershell
so to sum it up: i can boot into fastboot or twrp but i cant do much anything else
ive seemed to exhaust every remote advice out there and really dont know what to do anymore
any of you guys could point me in the right direction? or is the phone done and done?

You have locked bootloader you cant flash anything ....unlock it, flash rom (optionaly flash stock rom and lock booloader)

thanks, i think ive already tried that already before,
here is a recap of what happens when i type in fastboot flashing unlock
- (bootloader) WARNING: This command erases all user data. (bootloader) Please re-run this command to continue.
- (bootloader) Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Android Settings > Developer (bootloader) Options.
i dont have any rom installed so i cant get into developers options and allow OEM unlock
edited: and if i try ./fastboot oem unlock
i get
... (bootloader) invalid boot state

You don't need to unlock the bootloader to flash the stock firmware. The reason gpt.bin and the bootloader won't flash is because you're attempting to downgrade them. Flash everything in your firmware in order and if something fails to flash, then just skip it and go to the next item in line. It should still work.

thanks man but those two files are the only files that seem to flash.. the rest is giving flashing denied error
after digging around xda even more ive realized im in the same situation as the guy: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/help/fastboot-flashinglocked-modified-t3872215
ive managed to brick it real good this time, quoting a nice chap who tried to help him: "You DID lock the keys... not so much in a car with bulletproof windows... but in a nuclear-resistant TANK"
im really sad at this point, i didnt even have the phone for a week and even being it a budget phone i really really liked it..
RIP moto g6 you were my first... bricked... phone :crying:

I don't think you're bricked just yet. From fastboot try the following commands;
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot format -w
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase DRR
Then try flashing your firmware again. Also, something would help is running the command;
fastboot getvar all
And posting what that says. DO NOT include your MEID number. I don't need it and it should never be given out.

What country are you in? You have a software mismatch going on. It says your carrier is RETGB which is Great Britain, but your Blur version is saying Retail US.

Yes there is! I think you need this firmware. https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
If that doesn't work, try this one.
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmwar...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Special note: Do not use any scripts, batch files, or rsdlite to flash it. Use adb/fastboot and enter everything manually. Read the flash file carefully, and be sure to use the command fastboot oem fb_mode_set before starting, and when you finish flashing, enter the commands, fastboot oem fb_mode_clear then fastboot reboot after. Wait and it should start to encrypt then reboot and finish encrypting.

It looks like you have the correct firmware. If you didn't then the bootloader shouldn't be able to flash. You aren't being blocked by frp either, so that's not the problem. I'll do some research and see if I can find a way to fix this. It should allow you to flash stock firmware since it's signed by Motorola. This is a tough one.
If you're using Windows and have not tried this already, try opening the command prompt with administrator privileges. If you happen to be using Windows 10, make sure that you're using the older cmd and not powershell. If you have not tried using a different usb port, this might be worth a shot. I'd try ports that are directly connected to the motherboard. Try USB 2.0 and 3.0 if you have both. Also be sure to use the original USB cord that it came with if you have it. I'll see what I can dig up in the meantime.

Are you able to boot or flash twrp?

thank you! i think i must have read and tried everything there is out there trying to bring the poor little fella back to life.. ive tried different ports, methods, ROMs, different cables, tomorrow im gonna try what youre suggesting - the older cmd but i doubt it will make any difference, since i was able to flash and re-flash this phone just fine before i somehow managed to **** up the oem lock with no possibility to unlock it since there is no OS.
yes, im able to totally erase twrp (pic of android with red triangle and NO COMMAND) and then bring it back by booting twrp and consequently flashing twrp so it's there back under recovery mode

I'm not sure if I was reading that correctly, but are you able to boot twrp? If so, try formatting /data and running fix permissions. If you can only boot the stock recovery (red triangle), try factory resetting. You can pull up the menu in stock recovery by pressing Power+Volume Up at the "no command" screen. If you can reset the phone through either method, then try flashing the firmware again. Maybe a stupid question, but have you tried flashing the last Oreo RETGB xt1925-4 firmware already? (There's a few different RETGB firmwares.)

twrp runs fine, what i cant get rid of is the flashing_locked message in fastboot..
this i think prevents flashing ANYTHING onto the phone except two files:
./fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
./fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
flashing any other file returns permission denied
and ive tried at least 6 different roms
