[RESOLVED]Did I just brick my phone? Any help at all is appreciated

So in preparation for the kitkat update, I did the following steps:
unrooted within superuser app
flash stock recovery
flash stock boot.img
flash stock system.img
Once I rebooted I downloaded the OTA and tried to install. Now, after that, I wasnt really sure what happened on the phone, as I passed the time by watching a youtube video on my computer. However, I looked back down, and it was inside the bootloader, giving a partition failure of some sort. And when I tried to flash anything, it gave a remote failure error. It won't boot into anything, and it says the device is locked. Can't do mfastboot oem get_unlock_data either, literally nothing but fastboot reboot works
do i have a $650 paper weight on my hands?

Well fastboot starts at least. If you try to reload stock firmware (4.2.2) using rsdlite(not fastboot from a command line) which error do you get?

My device isn't showing up under rsdlite 6.1.4 at all

Sadly then I'm leaning towards it being a pretty looking brick. I've had many flash failures while experimenting with my XT1058s but I have never tried any custom recoveries so they were always recoverable with fastboot and rsdlite.
Hopefully someone else has some suggestions for you to try.

I flashed system.img, recovery.img, and boot.img from the original sbf file. not from the first OTA. and then the phone seems to have locked itself

Had you taken the first OTA already? If you had done that, you should have flashed these files from the new SBF file....
So, when you are in fastboot mode, your device is no longer getting recognized from fasboot command line? What does fastboot devices show?

Ah. there's my problem. I flashed the files from the factory moto X.
And the device is recognized in fastboot, I can send it commands, it's just that none of them except fastboot reboot actually work

Can you try these commands and see if anything changes?
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot-bootloader
After that can you try any of the fastboot flash commands using the new SBF file?

It worked!!! Oh my god thank you so much! You are a life saver!!

[Q] Can you help me with this brick?

Hey there,
I failed to upgrade my moto x to lollipop and accidentally erased the Android OS.
Basically, when I try to turn it on, it gets stuck at the moto bootlogo. If I press te volume down and the lock buttons, I do get to the boot screen (AP Fastboot Flash Mode), but, no matter what option I select, it goes back to the bootlogo and gets stuck again.
When I connect to my pc, it appears as Motorola ADB Interface at the device manager, even with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled. That makes it impossible for me to update the device with the RiffBox Drivers and, therefore, to have it accepted by Blankflash.
Is there any way to save this phone?
Thanks a lot in advance.

No. It wasn't the pure edition, but I unlocked the bootloader before screwing the firmware instalation

Dont worry its fixable. As long as you're still able to get it in to the boot loader mode.

What am I supposed to do, then?
Once I get to the bootloader, no matter what option I select, it goes back to that logo again and I get stuck.

You can flash your system.img in fastboot. You just have to find the right one for your model.

It doesn't work since the phone is not recognized as a usb device. If I go to windows device manager, it shows the phone as Android Device - Motorola ADB Interface.

Which version of phone do you have and which version are you flashing?

The version I used to have before was as it follows:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So, after rooting, I tried the LXE 22.46-17 firmware. That's when the OS was erased.

I finally managed to solve it.
It is a Nextel firmware, so I wasn't flashing the system.img right.
Thank you all for your kindness and answers.

Cannot flash recovery or root on MM

Hi to all, I have a motog with some battery problems, so I thought to root it to install some "battery calibration" software but the most of all require root.
So, since I wiped all, I installed Marshmallow update following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-stock-firmware-t3018682
Then, I downloaded this toolkit to unlock the bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/ultimate-moto-g-2014-toolkit-t2979862/page13
Tried to flash the recovery with that but it doesnt works.
So I downloaded THIS toolkit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2499926
Also with this, flashing TWRP recovery does not work at all, so I can't proceed to root.
What am I doing wrong?
I also tried to flash the recovery via command line and this is what I get:
flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-titan.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (8724 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.296s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.281s]
finished. total time: 0.577s
But, after that, when I reboot, I see the standard recovery with "no command".
Any help is appreciated!!

Thanks for your help but still doesn't works for me.
Followed these steps:
rebooted by adb on bootloader
flashed twrp 3.0.2.3 titan with the new command "fastboot flash recovery.... "
said OK.
so I tried to switch on and then i rebooted on recovery.
But recovery is still the original, with the little green android telling me "No Command".
What can be??
I can also say, when in bootloader mode I see "AP Fastboot Flash mode" and
Fastboot reason: Reboot mode set to fastboot.
But it seems everything ok to me!
Also I can say that every time phone restarts shows the "Bootloader unlocked logo"

But also this looks pretty normal to me.
Any other help?

Of course I did.
Otherwise I think the adb command should not work at all!

I'm still stuck with this MOTO G and cannot do anything.
I only have a doubt, since there was a few Firmwares avalaible for this device, what should I download?
I downloaded and installed this: XT1068_TITAN_RETAILDSDS_6.0_MPB24.65-34_cid7_CFC.xml.zip
But I also downloaded this: XT1068_TITAN_RETBR_DS_6.0_MPB24.65-34_cid12_CFC.xml.zip
What's the difference between these two firmware and what should I install on a French dual sim Moto G?

Wow, no one can help?

fastboot should reads your device. try running cmd.exe as admin and switch to another USB port or cable and see the results. just make sure that fastboot devices shows an ID

Hello, I currently have the same problem. Today I was converting my xiaomi mia2 to mi6x. Everything was normal, until at one point of the transfer miflash gave an error and the transfer stopped, checking the logs I find that simply the USB stopped working, the phone now does not signal by the usb. Now we have a paperweight, apparently. I have researched and apparently can try to repair the phone using the "test point method", which forces the EDL mode on the phone for a few seconds that you should take to flash the rom from MiFlash.
Please check this and try to do so, for the moment I have no tools because we have to disassemble the phone. I hope you have appropriate tools and you can tell me if it works! -> https://en.miui.com/thread-3524265-1-1.html
This other guide is for the A1, but it has information that may be able to help you. -> http://en.miui.com/thread-1680467-1-1.html
EDIT: I can confirm that I solved the brick with this method.

Yet another unlock bootloader question

I have a Nokia 8 model TA-1052 (this is NB1, correct?). It has a locked bootloader and is running Android 9.
I understand the HMD service for unlocking the booloader is no longer available and the only option now is using a Hikari's website.
Before I try Hikari's method I want to make sure that fastboot is working (I understand it is required?).
With the phone connected, the command "adb devices" show the phone listed but any fastboot command seems to not being able to find the phone (e.g. "fastboot devices" returns nothing).
Am I missing anything?
Thank you.

Assuming you are on Windows what does device manager show when you put the phone into fastboot mode?
Obviously you need a working driver for fastboot mode which is separate from the adb driver - how did you install the drivers and which ones did you use?

I don't have any specific Nokia drivers installed. The only USB driver showing (that seem to be related) is "ADB Interface".
I know that for some people the Nokia driver comes on the phone but mine isn't. Where can I get the driver from?
EDIT: in download mode the Win10 Device Manager shows an unknown "Android" device under other devices

i just unlocked my phone with this tool and somehow it's back to android 8.1 oreo, is that the normal behavior?

Hi, i used the methode in the link above but now my phone is stuck on the Nokia logo and won't boot to OS.
I can let the batterij drain and power it on but then i get this message in the picture.
Manually getting it into download mode is impossible (holding combo keys volume down and power looks like that doesn't work)

Some idea how to fix this? Luckely its not my daily driver but a testdevice.

I have it working again, let battery fully drain, then i could get into download mode (holding vol- while plugging usb) then I could run the tool again (had to request new OTP) and now it just boot normally
