So i got a moto e5 play seems to only boot in fastboot mode.
And battery and charging is weird. When i charge it with a reg. Charger it boots to fastboot(atleast). When plug to a pc. Only way is without the battery. Ive bought a new battery same issue. But i know the the oem is locked so its bricked. Try flashing the firmware wit rsdlite and manually with flashmod adb. Nothing is getting pass. Im using the original firmware. I think its screwed but if anybody can give me an insight on how to get this thing operating let me know. Thnx.
You can try to recover the device with the Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant: https://support.lenovo.com/br/pt/downloads/ds101291

I have a Motorola Droid 4. I installed SafeStrap recently on it and installed CM11 to the stock rom (mistake I know). I kept running into issues and I finally sorted all of them out and I decided I wanted to restore back to stock and then install CM11 to a rom slot. I come to find out that I am unable to restore my stock backup as it keeps failing. So I then decide I am going to just go ahead and restore my CM11 backup to rom slot 1 and make it the active boot rom, but that turned out to fail to for whatever reason. I reboot my phone several times and received the Motorola logo followed by the dreaded Android on his back with his chest opened up and the exclamation point/triangle coming out of it.
So I gave in and decided to just go ahead and use the Droid Razr Utility that I have used before to reinstall the stock ROM and start all over. During this process everything seems to be going fine. I am able to boot into Fastboot, the PC recognized the phone and can see it. I then start the recovery by doing option "2" to wipe and install. My phone reboots a couple of times and then comes to the point of another reboot but the phone never turned back on. I've tried many button combinations to get this to boot up but nothing seems to respond. I have attached a screenshot of what the Droid Razr Utility showed when the phone was attempting to restart but never did.
I purchased a Fastboot cable to hopefully get me to the point of my PC recognizing the phone but that does not seem to work. When I plug in my phone Windows never detects anything. I removed all the drivers and nothing. If I plug the phone into a charger the Green light flashes for a split second. If I plug my phone into the computer the Green LED light will stay solid. According to Motorola this indicates that the battery is fully charged. I've tried reseating the battery to no avail.
So based on the information above and the attached screenshot, is my Droid 4 bricked and unusable now?
After doing a bunch of research I think I indeed bricked my phone. Since the ROM I tried flashing to my phone was not for the Droid 4 but rather the Droid RAZR, it looks like my phone is dead. I was hopeful and assumed that this would be able to be reversed by hooking up to a PC but apparently that is not the case. Perhaps I tripped the eFuse or something which is causing the boot loader to not initiate. I guess I need to get a new phone now unless someone has a nifty trick up their sleeve to get the phone accessible via a computer.
You are going to need a Team Black Hat cable, aka fastboot cable. Then plug it in, and run RSD Lite using the DROID 4's fastboot files. You can find the fastboot files at this website below. Download the one that matches the version of Android you have.

Ordered a factory cable on eBay; we shall see; thanks for the information
Even though my computer does not seem to recognize my phone when I plug it in. For example, I plug it in using the Fastboot cable and I never heard a sound from my computer like it knows something was just plugged in?
I did buy a fastboot cable from bluvector on amazon but that didn't seem to do anything for me. My Droid 4 still has a black screen and plays dead:crying:

Are you having the same problem as me? Your Droid 4 will not turn on and just sits at a black screen when you push the power button?
@sd_shadow you out there? I would love to hear your advice on my issue to see if there is any hope for my phone.
I received a FastBoot Cable but when I plug it in nothing happens. I also have a Kindle Fire HD and plugged the fastboot cable into it and powerd it down and back on and it boots normally. I'm wondering if the fastboot cable is faulty? Also I think my droid 4 may be completely shot since pushing the power button does nothing for me so I don't know how I could get back into Fastboot mode, unless a confirmed working fastboot cable will force the phone to boot and enter fastboot mode?

Motorola Devices will be powered by the Fastboot/Factory cable, when you connect the Droid 4 to pc via a fastboot cable, it should power on but you may need to select fastboot mode in bootmenu options.
Not sure about the kindle HD, but an Original Kindle Fire 1st gen, will boot direct to fastboot mode, when connected to a Fastboot cable
Both require Hardware cable and device to be working correctly.

According to the description on the amazon site that I bought this cable from it shows the cable as being able to support Kindle Fire HD, that is why I am thinking that this cable is faulty, since it is not working on my droid nor is it working on my Kindle Fire.
I am thinking on buying a different one and returning my current one but i'm hesitant to do so. I have my doubts that this will allow my Droid 4 to boot up and/or be recognized by my computer. Since I get no response with the Vol-, Vol+, Power button combinations i'm thinking this is hard bricked because of the wrong files I flashed to it.
Before I made this mistake the phone was at least responsive showing the android/exclamation point screen. Then my dumbass ran the wrong flashing utility and that was all she wrote.
Do you think there is hope for my my phone even though the power button yields no response? If the fastboot cable will at least allow my phone to be recognized by my computer then I think i could save it, but that is where i have my doubts, but would love to try.

If you flashed Droid Razr firmware, yes it's bricked. or haven't seen anyone recovery from that yet.
@bean1975, did you have any luck with getting the fastboot cable to recover your phone?
Hi everyone.
While I was still running the phone stock and rooted my phone stopped reading usb otg devices and was no longer recognised by a pc. I carried on using the phone and used an sdcard to transfer files. After a while I sent it to a repair center and they told me that physically there is nothing wrong with the phone. So I took it back and flashed CM13 with TWRP. Before flashing gapps I connected it to a pc and the pc recognised it as a device. I could use ADB and transfer files. After flashing gapps I'm back to how it was, otg devices aren't recognised and pc's don't recognise the phone.
Can anyone help me? Anybody experience something similar and did you fix it? If so how?
Thanks for any help you can provide in advance.
So for giggles I booted to fastboot and plugged in my phone. Guess what? Minimal ADB can see the phone. I'll be flashing stock firmware and I'll report back
I successfully flashed the stock firmware on my moto g but the problem still persists. Oh well
so i rooted my note 5 sm-n920p phone using odin to flash everything i even had twrp flashed to it. the phone worked properly for months then one day i ended up switching off oem unlock forgetting it would trigger my frp lock if my phone had died well my phone died and when i went to turn it back on i got stuck in the frp boot loop i can get it into odin mode but it will not go into twrp recovery mode at all. i know how to flash the stock firmware to my phone but my problem is i cannot get any computer to recognize my phone it says one of the useb devices attatched to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it. ive tried everything from uninstalling my usb drivers and reinstalling them and manually installing samsung android adb interface directly to the unkown device. odin will not pick up my phone and add it for me to flash it back to stock and factory reset it im willing to lose all my data i just want my phone to be able to work. if there is anyone with any advice or is willing to assist me to get my phone back to a proper working state id really appreciate it. also i am not sure if i even need the computer to recognize my phone not sure if i just need to keep trying different versions of odin but i know that my cable isnt the problem because ive tried it with my other note 5 and it works ive tried multiple cables with the frp boot looped phone that i have and i cant seem to figure it out why odin wont pick it up. as far as i know usb debugging is on and oem unlock is disabled on my frp locked note 5 please someone help me.
Right...
I'm going through the exact same thing right now. In all of the guides right now, it seems like theres always something that doesn't work out with our specific phone... lame sauce tbh.

NEVER let your phone die. Charge immediately if battery goes to 15%. You need a charged battery to do any flashing so yeah, you may need to replace or charge the battery to flash a 4 file firmware.
my moto x bricked when i upgrade to 5.1 by ota. Moto x doesn't turn on, doesn't enter to fastboot, recovery. Doesn't be recognised by pc, it's totally charged because i removed the battery and charge it. I do the process with the jumper cable and nothing. If i connect the moto x to the pc without connect the battery, a Green light goes on 15 seconds, but if a i connect the battery to the moto x does nothing. Help, i don't know what else to do. :crying:
Same :'(
Still dead?

After an update with fastboot I restart and do not turn on, no recovery no fastboot mode.
please help!!!
the pc recognizes it as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008
First, you need to wait for the battery to drain completely.
Then you need to prepare an sd card and boot from it.
......
Hi Mates. Please help!!!
I have the same issue. Moto e4 plus xt1776 completely dead after trying stock rom installation. Even I tried with sd boot image but y failed. I'm not clear enough about battery affair, can anybody help? I mean can you be enough specific with some solution or some step by step. Please help me I can't believe my phone is dead
i have the same issue but with the xt1775 moddel, do not turn on, no recovery no fastboot mode nothing, and dont know how to start to make alive again, and the pc only said unknown usb device (device descriptor request error)
.
Will you ever try to download another version of the rom or are you insisting on trying to install the same rom?
My device is the XT1773 if I have a version of my rom that when I try to flash it it leaves my device "dead".
and when i try another version my phone starts
normally.
Remember, you need to have your device drivers installed correctly.
