Hello,
thank you for taking the time to read and try to help.
I got an Asus Padfone X from At&t and the refused to unlock it
Asus didnt help either.
not to bore you with details
but here is my noobish mistake tool form, i flashed the asus kernel .zip file to the bootloader using twrp.
now phone wont boot into recovery or bootloader
got the minimal tool which as you know include fastboot and ADB
but it wont detect the device ( it detected it before when i rooted the phone )
I made a backup before i flashed , but the problem i cant flash it to a device that wont go to bootloader or recovery
and wont be detected by ADB.
please guide this lost noob.
Hello Ultimician,
If your device cannot boot into recovery or bootloader it's a hardbrick. Flashing the wrong kernel will cause your device to hardbrick.
You probably still have a warranty, I'd go to your service provider and play dumb: "One day my phone just didn't turn on, I've tried everything even charging it."
If you know of someone that could JTAG your device you could go to them that might work, what the manufacture usually do is they replace the whole motherboard. ( What Samsung did when I bricked my device in any case.. )
Otherwise you could refer to these threads, be careful though they are not necessarily for your device. ( But they might be of help )

Best of luck mate!
thanksfor the swift assistance
thank you kindly
amazon offered me a refund
i will take my chances
Carefully when they send a device back to the maker they can often pull information.like last install and all of that. If you had a back up. I would try to flash the stock firmware. They are ways to do this with jig and other tools. I would try to flash stock every way I could before I take it back. I had s3 and bricked it long time ago.after many hours of reading I fixed it. Please always when flashing make sure it's for your device. Wish you luck2
Hello everyone, i'm new here so..sorry if i post this in a different place, but anyways..
i'm using Infocus M2 4g, i'm really happy with it, but yesterday i decided to install an android 5.0.2 custom ROM, maybe i forgot to wipe cache and make a factory reset before installing it, now my phone works till the welcome page, and the screen touch isn't working, and whenever the screen turns off, the device reboots again and keeps doing it over and over, i don't have a custom recovery, i flashed the ROM by a tool called DinDong and it requires usb debugging so that i can install a different ROM, and get rid of the problem, i can get to the fastboot screen, but i can't flash a room trough that :/
so this means .. NO Custom Recovery, No USB debugging, .. nothing :crying:
i would really appreciate it if you guys could help me, i have so many friends that i want to talk to again on whatsapp, and i don't want to use bluestacks again i need to get back my phone working,
thank you so much for reading this, and please reply as soon as possible)
and sorry for my English

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist

Good luck!
Hi guys its the 3rd time that i post here in the forum hopping to restore my "dead" Moto G3 XT1543 1GB RAM Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916).
Some days ago I've unlock my phone bootloader in order to install CM14.1 and i did it with success! but my sim card wasn't working, so, I tried to look for a solution. And I found a video on youtube that showed the supost fix for this issue, but i was wrong. I've flashed the file which broke my phone immediately and now my phone doesn't do ANYTHING!! Well, at least it shows on my computer as QDLoader 9008 but for now on I dont know what I have to do! I know that the easiest way to fix it is buying another motherboard, but I think that still hope for someone to find the way to fix it! Well, if the pc recognizes the processor so there's something to be done right?
I had searched all over the internet during this week, and I found some interesting possible ways to fix it, but im not a developer so I need help and opinions from other people.
1)The first way was to change the mode to 9006 aka diag mode though some files wich in theory allows you to acces eMMC partition and restore all the 29 inside partition and recover your phone. The problem is: I don't know how to change it to diag mode, but yea i have the needed files, and i don't have the tool to acces the eMMC of the phone and i dont have a backup of the partitions to write over the corrupted ones.
2)The second way was to use this tutorial *http://www.droidsavvy.com/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/* that i still havent tried since my phone isn't with me right now. So, in this supose way we can contact the phone through a tool called QFIL and try to "Inject" the bootloader or whatever, in the phone to foce him into a bootloop and so enabling the fastboot mode which allows you to install a rom later on. well the problem for this one is, i dont know if it works on your moto g3 but i gonna try. (if you try this option tell me and i gonna upload the needed files because the folder avaliable in the link contais files for the processor Snapdragon 610 and Moto G3 processor is a 410)
3) The third way is a Jtag repair in a authorized store, but i dont think Moto G3 have a jtag fix (im posting this possibility because i could be wrong)
4) In this way could be a updated Blank Flash actually used to hard unbrick the Moto G1 and I Guess the G2? But im not a developer and I dont know too much about programing, but i'm sure someone out there is a pro
5) Use the QPST which is kinda the same thing as use a eMMC tool? ( again im not a dev ) and from what i got, is used to config all your phone from scratch. would be good if there's a tuto out there
6) Sit and wait till Motorola release the MBM-CI 5.0 which from what i got is used like the Blank Flash or used to make a Blank Flash idk
AGAIN!!! IM NOT A DEV, THIS IS JUST SOME WAYS THAT I FOUND OUT THERE ON THE INTERNET WHICH COULD BE USED TO FIX YOUR BELOVED MOTO G3!! SO, I'M SHARING ALL MY RESEACH WITH YOU GUYS BECAUSE IS A SHAME HAVE TO DUMP MY DEVICE LIKE THAT OR HAVE TO EXPEND LIKE R$ 500 IN A NEW MOTHER BOARD WHICH IN DOLLAR ITS LIKE 1600 U$D (this is Brazil guys yea it's a horrible country T_T ) SO I HOPE THAT THIS POST HELPS SOMEBODY AND IF YOU GOT SOME INFO SHARE TO HELP US TRY TO FIX THE PHONE!

You'll need blankflash for this device, that's the only thing which will take it back to bootloader mode so you can flash a firmware. Blankflash is usually found in stock firmwares, however the chances are kinda low

yeah, you can try but the models are different and also the partitions inside the phone... try it out and if it works you can post here
No u can't try the Moto g2 firmware..... As Moto g2 is also waiting for MBM CI 5 file for lollipop and Motorola is not releasing those file needed for blankflash
Sorry to bump needlessly but has there been any progress in this regard?
Has anyone found a solution or blankflash files?
I managed to hardbrick my device while trying to resize the system and userdata partitions (stupid, I know)

No... And just like previous Moto devices, it is unlikely we will ever get the necessary files.
Same situation, any updates?
I'm currently facing the same situation with XT1543, it ran Marshmallow 6.0 stock (came with Lollipop) and suddenly it hard bricked (last time i checked there were no software updates and even if there were, the phone would not restart itself to update). I ran blankflash but the results were these:
greeting device for command mode
opening device: \\.\COM3
OKAY [ 0.001s]
greeting device for command mode
FAILED (blank-flash:greet-device:error reading packet)

If you can't get to the bootloader, it's toast... we do not have the proper files to do a Qload reflash, and the chances of getting them are near zero.
Try the usual... drain the battery and hold Power+Vol Dn (normal method to access bootloader) or press and hold Power+Vol Dn for 15-30 seconds, if you can't get to the bootloader there is NO recovery method available. Sorry.

Thanks for the quick reply, I will post my results here whether it's successful or not.

+1 on this.
The only other thing I would do is take it apart and detach one wire from battery and short that lose wire to the other wire (short the phone, NOT the battery!) for 15 sec or so and reconnect wire to battery and put phone back together and try boot to bootloader (power plus vol-dn). If no go, at that point if it were worth it I would give it to ATT to fix, or toss it in the drawer for parts.

If there is no bootloader and the only thing that can be seen on the computer is QdLoader mode, it's done... Send it to Moto for repair or send it to the recycler, there is no fix we can do.
Okay so, My friend has a samsung galaxy s5 neo and he gave it to his daughter who is quite young. She set up her own gmail etc on it and he later had to factory reset the phone.
Upon starting it up, he obviously ran into the "please log in with the origional gmail account to verify identity." the only problem is his child cant remember the details at all.
So, he has handed his phone to me to fix as i have a bit of experience with this sort of stuff however I have a couple of problems.
First and foremost usb debugging and oem unlock allowed are not ticked whatsoever and because i cant access the phone i cant get them on. I'm pretty stumped on what to do now, i've tried several things
like flashing different stock roms on via odin etc...
i've tried getting different apks to open when i put in he usb, i have tried to disconnect my internet whenever the "just a sec" part comes up.
The only thing i can think of now would be to get a custom recovery on and flash a custom rom. But because i don't have the oem thing and debugging on odin wont flash twrp because i get the frp lock issue.
If anybody can offer me any advice on things you think i can do to help me please do, i appreciate it a lot.
