Okay so, Im a noob at all this and this was my first attempt at unlocking the bootloader.
I followed a website and I tried unlocking the bootloader.
I thought I did it right.
So when the phone restarted, it went to the "Android is optimising" screen
I wasnt there when it happened but when i returned, there were all these popups saying everything crashed (clock, settings, ANDROID)
So i tried shutting it down and hoped that when i restarted it, it would do the optimising again and work
So i restarted, but as soon as the Motorola start screen finished ( the spinning globe thing) the whole phone would crash and would be stuck on a blank black screen.
I can still access the Fastboot screen thing by pressing the Volume down and Power buttons.
Is there anything i can do to fix it?
Please make it detailed or very simple because again, I AM A NOOB D:
PLEASE HELP ME D:

Go into recovery and do a data factory reset and clear the caches, that should solve the problem.
how?

Have a look in here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537119 - all the questions and important news are there.
ALSO
You know that after you unlocked your bootloader all your data is gone? You can flash one of the 4.4 images available using one of the tutorials here on XDA (not a shaddy site on the interwebz)

im sorry, do YOU know how to do it exactly???
and yea i made a backup of all my data (apps, phone stuff like contacts etc.)
Reboot into bootloader, pick recovery, at the picture, press volume up and power at the same time, then use the volume keys to navigate the menu and power key to select.
Note that the recovery is actually broken and the option you have highlighted isn't actually the one that it will select, so you'll have to experiment a little to get the wipe data one.
Did it but back at square ONE D:

Well, i did what you said, when the phone first restarted it got stuck at the globe part so i held power and restarted.
BUT it went to the android is optimising screen. Things were really looking up at that moment but to my luck, it showed the 'message' -.-
"Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped."
IM REALLY SAD D:
can you please help more?
thanks though because what you said worked just that a new problem came
EDIT: Okay so just after finishing the previous post ^ and going to bed ( cuz i live in NZ ) i kept doing your idea. after 2 or 3 tries IT WORKED DDD
So i tried making sure everything was working. I tried doing that "Motorola Protect Your Phone" thing that wont go from your notification screen unless you do it. But i couldnt because it said -
"The Phone radio is unable to connect to the network. Make sure the radio is on, or if it is on, move into an area with better coverage and try again."
So whats the radio?
I was assuming it was my thing which sends texts and calls but i could text just fine. Is it WiFi? because at the moment i dont have WiFi ;P
Im just getting a bit scared because i read somewhere ( idk where) that your phones radio could get ruined if you attempted to unlock the bootloader O:
Sorry for being so annoying
Thanks for helping me
PLEASE HELP AGAIN D:

Hi Lads,
My HTC touch diamond is doing strange, one day I woke up and suddenly it gave me a Red,Green,Blue,White screen. As I understood it's called bootlloader or something like that.
I tried reset+volumebutton after that it is starting normal and Ive got my phone back, but if I turn my phone back off its gaving me the terrible Red, Green, Blue, White screen back.
Ive tried to do a hard reset ( reset button + volume + round button) but then I have to press the volume button again to accept, but it isnt doing anything then.
Ive looked for some solutions but everything is chinese for me.
I just want my phone back to normal and I hope I dont have to loose all my files.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks anyway lads
Well, if possible, Backup all of your Data using either SPB Backup or Microsoft MyPhone, and reflash a new ROM.
This is what most users will tell you to do.
I think once a device encounters the Bootloader Infinite Loop issue, the only solution is to Flash a New ROM.
and how can I do that ? I am really a dummie at this point.
But it still works only if I put it back on I see the bootloader again.

..better post in the diamond thread. I am sure you will get help!
Maybe HardSLP?
Any update on your progress?
Curious as to whether or not you got the issue fixed.
[If you can get into the Bootloader, you can Re-Flash your device.. just keep it plugged into your computer when you restart your device.]

Dude calm down, it is not a big deal (at least I don't think so). Just go back to recovery (twrp or cwm). Re-flash the ROM you used or if you have a backup then restore from there

Hey guys, I recently found my tf300t tucked away somewhere. Haven't used it for absolute months! And I remembered why, I kept having problems with CM somehow(I believe the last update was somewhere in June-July of 2013), so this time after charging it and wanting to do it all again, I figured I'd get it updated. Seeing as it's been nearly a year and so much crap has changed, I figured something was going to go wrong. Before I even DID ANYTHING, I told the tablet to reboot into recovery mode, and boom that's where I'm stuck. The Tablet rebooted and now only shows the Asus boot screen... Nothing else! Vol down+pwr didn't work, nothing. And If I hold the power button it shuts off but then turns right back on 1-2 seconds later. I'm not sure what this is, a soft brick? a Brick? just an error? Can anybody please help? I know this is probably the wrong section, but I'm just frustrated.
Thank you to anybody who can help in any shape or form.
PS: no bashing is needed, my tables already bashing my head for me.

Does it respond to being plugged into a computer? Try pressing the reset button and then doing the vol down to get into fastboot.

Nope, but I am running W8 and I read that W8 kinda sucks for this sort of thing. Like you need W7 or XP? Correct me if im wrong. Any other ideas? . I didn't do anything! Just told it to reboot into recovery, and now I'm stuck there. I held pwr+volume down and it still keeps stuck, and if I try to power it off then it just turns on again a few seconds later.

I also have this issue
??
So none of you can get to fastboot or recovery, but you do all get the stuck at Asus logo?? All your bootloaders are unlocked?? All of you got to this spot, the same way by not using the tablet for long periods of time???? What bootloader are you on?? What version of CM are you running??? What is the OS of your PC, If its not the top 3 please be specific......Are you using a stock asus data cable??
Sounds similar
From what your posts say, it sounds like something i came across. I struggled for hours trying to figure out this dilemma, but if you're in the same situation i was in then as long as you're in that screen even after trying to hold the power and -vol let it sit there, plug in and make sure you have all your files associated with fastboot platform installed and try pushing the new TWRP ( http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407569892 ) to your tablet, for some reason after a certain update after 4.1 i believe? CWM stopped working for me, so try pushing the new TWRP from that link there and possibly you should be able to gain control of your tablet again and start installing the new packets for CM 11. I found this to be very helpful http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2570965 and thanks to "cmendonc2", 6 post down, he really cleared things up with his simple links. Hope you're in the same boat as i was. Good luck
Hi.
This phone was working perfectly and I left it to go away to another country so it must have discharged it's battery.
When I got back it would not turn on. Even after charging for a day, it will not turn on.
When I have the charging cable connected, it goes to Google Logo Screen and it loops (restarts over and over again)
There is no error message.
Picture is attached so please let me know what to do. It was a gift so no receipt to claim warranty.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Try booting into stock recovery and clearing cache, reboot.
If that doesn't work then you'll have to unlock the bootloader (which wipes data) and try flashing the factory images. A guide for that can be found in the first link of my signature.

Let you know once I try it.

I just tested and I am not able to get into recovery more...I am not sure what that mean. Should I connect Nexus to computer and see if it's recognized by computer and try to reload stock ROM?
Phone was never unlocked or flashed...it was in the same state as it was bought.
Can this be hardware problem? I saw some reports of similar thing happening with power button problem or other hardware problems.

did you go into the bootloader, choose recovery, and it went to an android laying on its back?
This is the weirdest things...Spent days and days trying to bring it back to life and it would just reboot after GOOGLE logo. There was no way to get into recovery more.
I was looking around and someone said that tapping hard behind the power button with finger might bring it back and it did...so crazy. No matter what, I am a happy camper.
If you have tried everything, just try it...it behind power button and it might wake up the android that's been sleeping.

Can u explain how did u do that .what do u mean by behind the power button
I have the option to buy this device from a guy who has this problem and i have said to him to try the tips but not working. Computer does not see the device yet and thats logic since it just goes for 2-3 sec in bootloader he told me. Is this the power buttion failure or can it be fixed with nexus toolkit?
Price is €50 because of that and little damaged glass but i doubt if i can let it boot normal again.
Hello,
I have accidently put my phone into recovery mode and i can not exit from it. Rebooting and powering off and on doesnt solve anything, it opens to recovery mode again.
I believe that it happened since i hold the power button too long and accidently pressed volume button at the same time. I have checked a lot but couldnt find how to fix. Since i havent backed up my pictures yet, i want to know that if there is a way to exit from this mode without deleting my pictures? I couldnt understand if installing from adb (ı dont know what it does) or fastboot to reboot will delete my data? In addition, i havent been able to install the latest update since my phone didnt have enough memory. Could this situation be related to that? Sorry for asking lot of questions but i am really worried since i dont have any service to have it checked up .
Plsz help
Thank you

Hello Mr. Ak,
Thank you for your reply. Thats why im worried cuz i was not doing anything in recovery. I believe it came up since i accidently hold power button too long and i might have been press volume button meanwhile. So i went there by mistake. Also is it possible that the reason that i cannot reboot is that i wasnt able to upgrade the lastest ver. due to lack of memory .
I have never done flashıng and i actually dont know what it means. I have chacked online that it says it is installing an operating system in a phone.
But the problem is ı havent changed the settings of my phone to usb (it only charges through usb)and i wish i had done that. Is there anything possible i can do now?
