Can you enter recovery? If not this is probably the same thing what happened to me.

Hello ..
I am Brazilian and I'm in Spain ... I have a "Motorola Razr I" phone and there was a problem in the android system. I have the version "Jelly Bean" installed.
The unlock pattern has been wrong more than 25 times, causing it to be asked to the Google account and password. I know what my account and my password, but the system does not accept it.
Already tried the recovery and factory options and nothing worked. Does anyone know what can be done? I'm really needing my phone to connect with my relatives in Brazil.
Thank's!

Try to perform a factory reset using external keys
Note: It is highly recommended you use the above factory reset using the settings. If you are unable to navigate through the menu to perform a factory data reset, you can follow the steps outlined below:
1. Power up the phone by pressing the VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .
2. The device will enumerate with different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL and VOL UP Key to SELECT
4. Select Recovery
5. The device will start up with Motorola logo and power up to a little Android man logo with Exclamation mark
6. Press the VOL UP and VOL DOWN Key together at this screen
7. The device will display BLUE Text on a Black background .
8. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll DOWN and the POWER Key to SELECT the option desired .
9. In this case , press the VOL DOWN key till the Wipe data / factory reset is selected and press the POWER key to confirm the selection .
10. Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and press the POWER key to CONFIRM .
11. The device will then start performing the Factory Data Reset
12. Once the Formatting is complete , press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
13. The message rebooting is displayed on the phone.
14. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .
Hope it helps.
If it doesn't work, try to re-flash your OS with RSD Lite
Do as jquesadar has explained
but release the Power button immediately when the phone vibrates. The timing has to be perfect, not even a second too long....

Is there a way to boot on Safe Mode on our device using key combos ? (like enter fastboot)
I've managed to boot Pi-Llama clean flash without bootloops using Safe Mode, but i have no idea how to do that again.

The only way I know is to hold the power button until the menu pops up (the device needs to be booted up for sure), then long-pressing the shutdown menu-button. A message will appear to ask you, if you want to boot in safe mode.
I just found the combo by trial and error
Boot up your device while holding down Vol+ and Vol-.
Edit: Ok, after a bit of testing, the only button that activates safe mode is Vol-. But in order to not enter fastboot, you would need to power on -> wait 2 secs after the bootup-vibration and then hold down Vol-.
I'm trying to remotely help a friend with a Nexus 6 stuck in a bootloop. The phone is new, just out of the box. He accepted an OTA update before doing anything else, so no USB debugging (or anything else) was set. Now it's stuck in a bootloop.
Is there a step by step guide available to allow flashing a factory image in this situation. Everything I find so far requires USB debugging to be set first. Or, are we talking brick? Returning the phone would be very difficult.

If I were your friend I would put the phone back in the box take it back to the store and demand a brand new one immediately that shouldn't be happening on the stock device

Unfortunately, he bought in the US and is now far outside the US. That's why returning would be difficult.
Dam. Can he boot to the bootloader.

He can do each of these steps but when it reboots after #6 it goes back to the dead robot and "no command"
1. With the phone powered off, press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power button at the same time until the device turns on. You will see the word "Start" with an arrow around it.
2. Press the Volume Down button twice to highlight "Recovery mode"
3. Press the Power button to restart into Recovery mode. You'll see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation mark and the words "No command."
4. While holding down the Power button, press the Volume Up button.
5. Use the volume buttons to scroll to "wipe data/factory reset" and press the Power button to select it.
6. Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data" and press the Power button to select it.

On the "no command" screen, hold power, push volume up and reenter recovery. Select reboot system. See if the phone boots up.

At this point, you must connect to a PC and see if you can get fastboot to recognize the device. Then we can proceed.
Will the Nexus Root Toolkit http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ work even though USB debug has not been turned on?

USB debugging does not have anything to do with being in fastboot or recovery. As long as the proper drivers are installed, your computer can recognize it and you can use fastboot in bootloader.
