Hello all, after some water damage to my Moto G 2014 XT1068 (Lollipop) I am having a few problems and wondered if anyone could help.....
1) Volume keys not working
2) Phone only seems to boot into safe mode.
3) Rebooting phone always goes to fastboot menu.
Debugging is enabled on phone, but it is not rooted. I have installed Android SDK on my pc and have tried using adb to reboot recovery but it always comes back to fastboot menu. I have flashed TWRP using fastboot but can't seem to access it. Since the volume buttons are not working is there any other way to enter TWRP recovery mode?
Oh yeah it always says 'Fastboot reason: Volume down key pressed' which is kind of strange since in the fastboot menu and when I do boot into Lollipop the volume keys are completely unresponsive!
Thanks in advance

Firstly, the power button has gone faulty on my Nexus S and I am due to send it back to Samsung for repairs, so I want to get it back to factory image 4.0.4 IMM76D using the Google image and to relock the bootloader. However, when I reboot into fastboot all the keys stop working and I presume it has stopped responding and the only way to reboot is to do a battery pull. Just wondering if anyone has had this experience before and knows a solution.
By keys you mean volume and power right?
Does a computer recognize it with fastboot. Example . Fastboot devices / fastboot reboot etc?

Volume and power keys don't work while in fastboot and it isn't recognised by that. And when it powers on regularly it say No boot or recovery img. Nope, doesn't get recognised by PC and just says No devices found...
Did it work before in the same system?
Only other thing I could think of to try is download mode/Odin
It was working fine that day. I even flashed CWM on it after trying TWRP. But then suddenly the power button broke, and when I used the key combo to get into fastboot mode using the plug in to charger method it loaded fastboot and just wouldn't respond
Hi I have the following problem: after I flash Cannibal open touch recovery I could not flash any .zip file so I decided that I go back to CWM touch so I restarted my phone. Phone booted into fastboot mode with the following message no boot or recovery IMG so I decided to flash recovery with fastboot. I opened the folder with fastboot command flash_recovery connect the phone to usb but the command line always showed waiting for device. I unplugged the phone and tried to press the volume keys but nothing happened as if it freezes. I pulled the battery and try it again but no response. I cant connect phone to odin because it has broken power button and after I insert the battery it always turn on itself. Please advise me what to do thank you.
Seems your drivers have gone corrupt. Try a different system and use Nexus Root Toolkit.
I tried this option but without success. Phone does not respond to anything. No volume up or volume down. It´s just stucked on bootloader.
This link says that if you get <waiting for device> , then fastboot is not configured properly. Check out the link over here.
You may also try this command "fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.3-crespo.img" to boot into recovery without installing it.
no hope
The reason you cannot navigate in fastboot/bootloader is that your powerswitch is probably stuck in the "on position"...does your device immediately power on when battery is inserted?
The way i solved this a few months ago was to completly remove my powerswitch from the board power my device on..use quickboot to enter fastboot menu and input commands...
Also completely removing your power button makes powering on your nexus alot more complicated.
what i did was go to download mode (holding vol+ and -) and pluging phone in..this takes you to download mode
then you need to get a copy of a boatloader file to flash via odin which will reset your phone and power it on...pm me if interested i can provide you with files necessary
Hi,
I have a problem with my One Plus One. When I open the phone, there is only the "CYANOGEN RECOVERY" screen that appears.
I can access sideloading using the menu but it is not working. I tried to sideload CM12 and it is looping back to the recovery screen
More over, I cannot access fastboot mode. I tried to use adb to reboot the phone in fastboot mode but adb only sees the phone in sideload mode
The Power + vol up combinaison doesn't work...it will come back to the recovery screen
Any idea ?

Are you attempting to boot into fastboot with the cable connected? That's been known to cause issues, so unplug and try again.
Hey guys, so I have this dilemma on my hands. One of my friends has a Nexus 5 that has a power button issue. It seemed like a stuck power button, because even cleaning it did not solve the issue. So I removed the power button, and it finally turned on. However, it's now stuck in a Google logo bootloop.
The Objective:
To recover all data on the device. This is a must.
The Obstacles:
- No physical power button, but I can place a pair of tweezers on the terminals on the board to simulate a power button press.
- Bootloader is locked (I can unlock it, but that erases all data on the phone).
- Cannot enter proper stock recovery (I get a "no command" error when I do; I've tried all button combinations afterwards, including the ones from HERE, but to no avail).
- USB debugging was not enabled on the phone when booting normally, so even though the phone is recognized by my PC, I cannot do anything using ADB.
- Fastboot mode is the only successful mode I can reach on the phone.
The Final Question:
Does anyone know how I can successfully recover all the data on the phone using ADB or any other method, having the above obstacles?
Thanks in advance.
If you can reach fastboot without any problem, you can try to boot a custom recovery image using the following command : fastboot boot recovery yourcustomrecovery.img
(if you dont have a custom recovery, you need to flash one with : fastboot flash recovery yourcustomrecovery.img)
It will boot in recovery mode and, I hope, allow you to have an adb access and recover your data.
edit : since your bootloader is locked, i guess this won't work.

I bit of a trick. Try 'fastboot flash boot recovery.img' but instead of kernel flash twrp. After flash do a 'fastboot reboot'. It will boot recovery. Via twrp the pc will recognize phone as a media storage. You will not erase any data

Thanks for the response, but the bootloader has to be unlocked for that to work, and while I can do that, it will wipe the data I need.
Hi, it all started when I tried to install another ROM for my moto g xt1033. I accidentally deleted OS and storage.
Now it is struck at Warning bootloader unlocked screen. I can't even go into recovery mode.
I guess I hard bricked it.
Please help.
Thanks.
Have you tried to reboot into fastboot mode? Hold power button 5 seconds, after it reboots hold vol- key for some time and release it. If You booted into Flashboot mode you can install recovery or restore full system.

Yes I tried. It reboots with a small vibration to bootloader unlocked screen again.
It's not detected by fastboot when you connect it?
