My Moto G3 is almost DEAD! - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody, Please I need your help guys!
My Moto G3 is almost dead,
2 days ago my phone dropped so gently on the carpet while I was charging it, Since then I can not turn it on.
But only when I charge it or connect it to a computer, the screen just flashs and loops boot up screen and nothing than this!
But when I hold press the volume down key while its connected, I got the Recovery mode.
I tired RESTART BOOTLOADER, RECOVERY MODE, FACROTY MODE, BP TOOLS, but nothing happens!.
Any solution please!

Look like your phone isn't charging maybe thats why its not turning on. Do you see charging animation when you connected to AC power supply. Try flashing another rom. See if that helps.

It seems you can access bootloader mode. You can use fastboot to re-flash stock firmware that might solve the issue.
Press and hold power+volume down until you go into bootloader mode, connect phone to pc, and fastboot flash the stock firmware.

I second this, looks like your Moto G3 might have lost its physical connection between the battery's cables and the phone's logic board and thus no battery is or could be charging for this reason. I would open up the Moto G3 to see if that's the reason, a possibly bad solder point between the batter's cable and the motherboard, but opening up the Moto G3 to make ANY examinations internally would prove to be a B _ _ _ H, since everything is glued together ala "IPhone Style", in fact Motorola could have taken classes from Apple in how to screw with the customers in terms of repair-ability of their phones that you wont find a single screw, according to the "IFixIt" page you will need a heat gun or a head pad to heat up the corners of the LCD screen and then with a tool to pry it open, and since the glass is very fragile there's a high chance that you will break the glass in the process and you would need to replace that as well. I say that this phone is probably one of the worse ones in terms of user repair-ability, but anyways, I would save my rant of "User Repair-ability" for a different topic for the future, but the point is that in case if you have to open up your Moto G 2015 to fix it yourself, its going to be very difficult.

Nothing. Happens it don't light up or power on at all. It is not reconized on computer either. It's hard bricked.
Make sure the Battery is charging...
How can I make sure the battery is charging when no lights come on at all? All I do know is I had it plugged in for a while yesterday and it got really warm. But no lights whatsoever. The screen doesn't light up at all neither does the led.
??????
There are no notification lights on the D720, but when you plug it in with a charger, you should see a battery bar on the display.
Other than that, you are probably right about hard-brick.
I, luckily, never had a "brick" on the Nexus S, so someone else with experience may wanna chime in. But Google and YouTube are your friends.

Please help me, i have the same problem
been awhile since any action here. saved mine with JIG method once but this time it won't work ??!(why) , in search of a solution again! -> hardbrick #2 on this device!
You guys can try a USB Jig. If that does not help, I think JTAG is what you need.
Jesus... just to revive this thread (and this concept of hard bricking), I think I just accidentally bricked mine as well.
Here's exactly what I did:
One moment, it was working spectacularly - fully stock, but unlocked. I had just listed it on eBay, too.
So I ran a factory reset on it (from the Settings menu), also "erase USB storage".
Then, after it shut down for the reboot, I pulled the battery.
...
That was it. Now it doesn't turn on for anything whatsoever. No device detected on USB when plugged into PC. Remove, replace battery, hold VolUp+Power, nothing. Plug into power adapter, nothing. Nothing at all.
But the back does get lukewarm after a minute or so, as if it's alive in the head but frozen, unable to start the bootloader.
WTF? I also have 2 more of these Nexus S 4G's, and both of them seem to have Flash storage chips that exhibit the same behavior when their chips are placed in (this) working motherboard. They can't boot. When I try to "hot-flash" it by booting the bootloader then swapping the Flash chips, they can't flash anything (this is probably to be expected). So, if I can get my ONCE-WORKING phone back to life, there's a good chance I can get another working as well (one just has a cracked glass, otherwise working mainboard & peripherals).
It's old, yes, but it's a damn shame to E-waste these things for a stupid software problem like this!

[Q] HTC 8x stuck and rebooting after logo screen

Hello,
Had a perfectly fine HTC 8x till this morning. Then the pet at home chewed on the USB cable while the phone was charging .. I suspect the power cables may have shorted with the data cables. In any case, now the phone is totally dead when the charger is disconnected. If I reconnect the charger (new cable) then the phone vibrates, afer that the screen lights up for about 10 seconds with the HTC logo and then it switches off - it keeps doing this till the time I remove the charging cable. The Red charging LED does not come on at any time. I have tried the hard reset with Vol down and power key etc. and that did not work. Any help to revive the phone would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & regards

I bought one listed for parts on ebay a while back that would do a constant boot loop. what i did was buy a cheap phone tool kit 2$ off ebay as well. removed the rear shell on the phone. dang phone is held with sticky adhesive. its take a minute to separate the housing and screen. if you have watched those videos on youtube where there using a blow drier to heat the plastic to take the phone apart is completely nuts. It only takes patients and dont force it . then disconnected the battery. 2 whole screws. woo hoo.. i couldn't do the hard reset either because the phone woudnt charge in off-mode. just constant boot loop. i had no choice to battery pull. strange thing was the charging light would always stay on even when it was unplugged. once the battery had been disconnected from the pcb it hasn't had any problems.
T-MOBUS HTC 8x Developer Unlocked, Sim Unlocked, and Running Windows 8.1
[SOLVED] Disconnect the battery from the phone for few seconds
Problems faced:
1. Boot Loop
2. Factory Reset using Phone buttons never worked, tried everything and never ever got the " ! " icon
3. Phone keeps restarting showing the HTC logo without "quietly brilliant" ( if you don't see that probably not going to boot the OS)
4. Phone does not work at all unless connected to phone charger
SOLUTION:
After trying almost every possible thing i got this to make it work.
1. Open the back cover ( you will need a hair dryer, check YouTube)
2. Unscrew just the two screws at the bottom of your phone and disconnect the clip-pin thingy (this connects the battery to the phone) for a few seconds. ( it has a metallic cover kinda thing)
Press the power button and your phone will go back to normal.
Make sure you connect anything that gets disconnected in the process... they are quite strong so dont worry, nothing will break or cut off, but do be careful.
hi there ok i found a solution you need to take the cover off and the plug in the charger because a button is stuck
there is only 2 screws you need to unscrew and boob it works

MY CASE... I've posted a thread explaining that...
This procedure works.. but in my case not at 100% fine... cause i can't insert back the sim card since the bootloops return if i do it...
That left us with a software issue i've not been able to solve yet...

Moto G bootloopand won't boot into fastboot

well, hello everyone here, yes, as the title says, my moto g is just stuck on the motorola logo and that's it, i bought this phone to a friend who told me it was the motherboard that was f****d up, but when i got home y just pressed vol - and power just because of instinct (i actually don't know much about this phone or motorola phones itself) and it enteredinto fastboot, so i was like: 'ok..... i've just bought a treasure' and everything relatively ok, i browsed through the menu options to see what was available, i pressed Recovery and the phone just turned off because it was low in battery (before all of the fastboot and stuff when i press power, the white led just blinked and that was it, it wont even boot into Motorola logo). Ok after seeing that the phone was low battery i disarmed it and charged the battery with two cables from and or usb i peeld just for this situation. After leaving it for like two hours i put the battery again and was stuckd into the Motorola logo... nothing hard, but what is pissing me off is that now i CAN'T BE ABLE TO BOOT INTO FASTBOOT and it's just stuck booting o trying to (when i connected the battery the phone turned itself on). Now i don't know what to do, i'm desperated, please, help me

(Help)Hard bricked U11

Never thought I would run into this moment that I need to ask for help on the forum, but I guess this is my last hope.
Here's the story:
I was on Oreo firmware and thinking of going back to Nougat because there are some apps only work on Nougat at this moment and I overall prefer Nougat design.
My phone was on S-off so I thought it would be perfectly fine for me to just flash Nougat firmware then flash the Nougat rom I desired like the good old days.
So then I launched Sunshine app, passed the compatibility test and the phone rebooted to download mode with S-off shown, everything was working fine so far.
And here was the problem happened, I typed in the command"fastboot flash zip firmwareXXX.zip".
Terminal showed error needs to reboot and flash again immediately as normal, the phone rebooted but never come back to download mode.
Now it only stays on black screen, if I tilt the phone a bit I can see the backlight glowing.
I've tried hard reset by holding power and volume down, it will reboot but still stays on black screen, neither system nor bootloader is accessible.
Even plugging to the computer detects nothing, not even QHSUSB_BULK mode.
However, the phone is able to charge though, I hook up the usb cable with a digital meter and it shows 5 volts and 0.5 amp.
I'm running out of solutions, I've searched through the entire forum and see no one has the similar experience.
This is the first time I hard brick a phone, been a loyal HTC user since good old Desire HD days.
If anyone has experience or solution for this, a kindly help is appreciated, thanks!

Have you held the power and volume down button both together for exactly 1 minute,
I have a u11 that took for ever to reboot with corrupt os youll notice the capacative buttons start flash if its doing something or going to reset after about 30 seconds if not and nothin happens
Take the backing off and unplug the battery,
To do this heat the backing up with a hair dryer and get some really fine guitar picks, work your way arround slowly, in my case the U11 was not glass backed only plastic and was original backing ive heard they are glass now though so be careful,
Now with the backing off and exposed, take all of the 5 or 6 screws out from the plastic ariel cover with NFC chip attached (chip is gold bend it up off battery it is not glued down)
Then from the left of the device at the bottom of the plastic cover with ncf chip on it you should see a slight gap where the vibration motor is located and sits
Get a rounded pair of tweezer and insert just the tip into the opening and very carefully pry it up, it make take a while as some of the adhesive from the backing will be holding it down,
After that is off you have now exposed the devices PCB,
From the battery youll see the connector making its way to the PCB port disconnect it and reconnect it now try to boot directly to download mode with
Power
Volume down
Both at the same time, if this did not work the disconnect the battery again and wait 24hrs for the static electricity to disperse and try again, had this work on a completely frozen unresponisve evo 10 and u11 + and also my U11
Still no luck id say the emmc on the board has gone haywire either that or possibly one of the thermal transistors has blown in which youll see either black and burnt or white and powdery,
Im a phone tech you shouldnt have any problems doing all this just take your time,
Good luck mate

I've tried holding volume down and power buttons both for around 5 mins, no capacitive button blinking.
However I can tell the phone reboots several times during the procedure by seeing the backlight goes black and light up.
And about the reconnect battery route, I guess I'll just do it anyway, since the repairing price might be the same as buying a new one.
Thanks for the reply, mate!

Sounds like the logic board is trying to initialize but there isnt sufficient power to boot it,
its kinda like when you take the battery out of a phone then plug it on to charge without a battery and there is nothing but a lit up black screen and nothing else happens as theres not enough power to boot, this sounds the same to me as there are no red or green light after the orange when plugged in,
Get a hair dryer and heat the back of the phone up a few times and then plug it into charge to see if you cant boost the cells back to life, do this a few times,
If no change id most certainly suggest removing your back cover and unplugging and replugging the battery, once unplugged leave it for a few minutes, then plug back this will refresh the chips (especially emmc as this contains your entire system and bootloader, including download mode, RUU mode)
as soon as battery is reconnected plug it in on charge and try to boot it to download mode straight away also look for any change in the batteries light colour and any blinking,
the orange light when first plugged in is normal but should blink once or twice only then change to a solid red for discharged and charging or solid green green when near on 100% charged
If the above does not work disconnect the battery for 24 hours and try again, this will fully drain any static electricity in the device that may be lingering,
If still nothing after the 24 hours buy an OEM battery from ebay and install yourself, once you have the back cover off youll see the battery takes up 3/4 of the phones actual internal size,
Same as the back cover get your hair dryer place a shamwow or thick cloth over the PCB board then heat the battery up (NOT TO MUCH THOUGH only so its hot to the touch), then with the really thin guitar picks again (they should be bendable easily and flexible) work your way around the battery to cut through the adhesive securing it down,
CAUTION be very very careful the adhesive is strong keep the battery heated at all times to avoid pericing the battery and or damaaging the lcd as this is what its secured to, just take your time and work slowly do not force it out, once all the adhesive is cut it will remove easily by using the guitar pick insert between battery and housing and gently turn the pick from left to right and will pop out, (you will see the battery move when using pick from left to right if not you havent cut the adhesive properly work around the battery once again until you get movement from it)
Sorry for the long reply haha but dont send it to htc they are absolute rubbish hope this helps ive tried to be as detailed as i can its actually alot harder trying to explain it than it actually is to do it

Not a thing under devices, removable our otherwise
You said that it won't power on? Correct? "No power on".. I'm assuming that's what you meant.
If that's the case, it's obvious why nothing shows up when you connect to the computer. I mean, it sounds like you have a fried unit.
I'm not even sure how you could do that in twrp. Lol.
The only phone I've ever had that wouldn't power on, was due to water damage (sweat damage actually). Which I'm still fired up about. I had a pixel 3a. Just 6 months old. Had a case on it.. was walking and talking to my niece, and pouring sweat as I walked/hiked. We hung up, and I noticed I had phantom touches all over the screen. I wiped the phone down, powered it down, sat it in rice for 12 hours. Turned it back on, and it was worse than before. So many phantom touches that I couldnt even power it down. Then volume down and power wouldn't take me to recovery so I could power it off.
I literally just had to sit there for 2 hours as it fried itself alive from water damage. Next morning, I noticed no warming on quick charge. No screen paper. No vibe on startup. Plugged into laptop, nothing registered.
It wasn't bricked. It was gone.
I know it's not a waterproofed phone. But sweat? Destroying a $400 phone? Give me an effin break.
Luckily, I pay my verizon bill with mastercard.. and all mastercard users (even debit cards) have phone insurance built into it. I called them, submitted the paperwork. (Copy of phone bill, copy of bank statement showing I used the mastercard, and a copy of the estimate showing it was a total loss. $349). The deductible was $50.. so 4 business days later, they deposited $299.99 in my account. And I bought the g stylus with it. And when I went to Walmart to buy it, it wouldn't ring up. It was supposed to be $299.99. I found a price match of $249.99. and when he was trying to ring it u, it wouldn't show up on their system. They did a search for it on their website, and he didn't know the difference between a g stylus and a g fast. I got it for $129.99. unlocked. (Was $179.99 on the website, and I had found a 50 off price match for the 299 priced phone earlier, so they gave me the 50 off 179.99. so needless to say -- I got a heckuva deal.
The g stylus is basically a pixel 3a. Except a bigger screen, better battery, and a stylus. The 665 actually performs better on multi ore than the 670 does. Because the 665 has 4 cores at 2ghz, rather than just 2 like the pixel. And the gpu is over closed to almost 1ghz on this phone. So no complaints other than picture quality. The pixel 3a is among the best camera phones ever made to this day. But with the g stylus, running a heavily tweaked and microtuned gcam mod.. its not a huge huge difference unless you are zoomed in. Then it's obvious.
It's possible you tried to boot into a different slot. Hold power and volume down until the phone boots into recovery. Unless you deleted the recovery image, it should still boot into recovery. From recovery you can flash a fresh install of Android or attempt to boot into twrp. I.e. "fastboot boot c:/'location-of-twrp.img'" as to attempt to boot into slot a. I had the same problem and just installed Android one from lollinets site. The variant of Android 11 that works for our metro moto g pro is "11 rprs31.q4u-20-28".
Volume up and power should take you to fastbootd. If hard ware keys aren't working it's either a dead battery or hard bricked. In which case, be careful with the next one.
ok heres the deal .... i came into this thread late but i have made every mistake possiable with this device and have dang near any file to fix the mistakes most of which were on purpose ... i pulled a couple noob reinforced actions tho like flashing sofiar instead of sofiap .... if you still need help brotha hit me up we will team viewer and ill teach you how to correct your issues no prob
sings ..... one of these things is not like the others .......

I have similar issue. When i connect to charger the white led flashes for exactly one minute then stops. Plug to computer i get nothing. Installed qualcomm drivers still nothing. Tried edl cord no change.
Im not sure what caused this. I was going to root so i unlocked bootloader. Flashed cwm. After flashing cwm its had errors mounting a couple partions. I powerd off and started digging here and on google, found couple options to try. When i tried to power up it was dead. No responce, no conection to computer... just one min of flashing led when i plug into wall charger. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Can you hard reset into recovery
If not does adb recognize your device
If it does you can always force boot twrp from debug

I have similar issue. When i connect to charger the white led flashes for exactly one minute then stops. Plug to computer i get nothing. Installed qualcomm drivers still nothing. Tried edl cord no change.
Im not sure what caused this. I was going to root so i unlocked bootloader. Flashed cwm. After flashing cwm its had errors mounting a couple partions. I powerd off and started digging here and on google, found couple options to try. When i tried to power up it was dead. No responce, no conection to computer... just one min of flashing led when i plug into wall charger. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I did exactly this. But I get no flashing LED when I plug into wall charger.
I've tried holding vol down + power for 20+ seconds, nothing.
I've tried holding vol up + power for 20+ seconds, nothing.
When I connect to my computer I no longer see the 9008 in device manager.
