From there when I select AP Fastbood device is restart with red Motorola logo and end up on home screen.. I have tried several times to turn off the device and repeat this process but no issue still there..
Moreover, if I did not select any options from boot modes than device automatically rebooted after 3 or 4 seconds..
Please help me out.. I want to unlock the boot loader root and install custom ROM..
Currently Model Number is XT925 and device is completely stock.. never rooted before...

After you use the volume down key to highlight "Fastboot", do you then press the volume up key to select it? If you just sit there and wait it will reboot normally. You must press the volume up key after you've highlighted the menu option.

try this,
-install adb on your pc
-plug in phone when powered up
- open a command prompt in your adb dir
- type in: adb devices then enter. it should show your phone in the prompt. also check your phone, there may be a popup to acknowledge.
- rerun adb devices until it shows your phone properly or you cant proceed
-now type in: adb reboot bootloader
if it works, the phone should reboot to the fastboot screen.
if it doesnt stick in fastboot, im sorry but i dont know what else to tell you to try.

Thank-you for the Response

Thankyou so much for the reply, i followed your instructions and finally get in fastboot mode and unlocked the boot loader. However, is there any way from which I can go into recovery.. because through hardware way I am unable to go in recovery. Thanks
EDIT: I have tried entering command adb reboot recovery, then phone was rebooted and there was green android on screen with chest open.. thats it... i have waited for few minutes and rebooted the device mannually.

That's the entry to stock recovery. You have to push a combination of buttons from there to get into recovery. I forget the button combination, it has been posted many times, try searching or wait for someone else to jump in with the answer.

Not sure where to post this question been reading so many post my eyes are tired......
- XT926 upgraded to kitkat 183.46 last week via flash in RSD from JB 4.1.2
- Root went well DONE (Towel root .apk)
- Unlock went well DONE (Motopocalypse .apk) yes fastboot shows the #3
- Flashed TWRP 2.7.1 DONE (did it using the adb in motopocolypse)
- Backed up my current stock ROM in TWRP seemed to go well the program confirmed the backup was successful...So I thought
- Got confident and wanted to try flashing CM11 (Kitkat version)
- After flashing CM11 my phone got stuck at boot like many others have.... no problem I backed up my stock ROM in TWRP.....So I thought
- Went to restore my stock ROM using TWRP and yup you guessed it like many others the restore failed half way through
Not a big deal starting fresh can be a good thing BUT I really need my old text messages and all I have is a USB backup of the phone (Internal/SDcard) on my PC and of course the TWRP back-up on the SDcard that won’t restore ...... Is there any way to get these messages back to my phone????

Not sure how to help you with your immediate problem at hand, but going forward, I definitely recommend the sms backup + from the Google Play Store. Nice thing with that app is, you can link it to your gmail account, and all your text messages are backed up to your gmail.

[Q] No Fastboot No Recovery .. Is it dead ?

While i was trying to install the latest official rom to my device (The new Padfone Infinity A86 T004) it is bricked, Now i am facing a very bad (miserable) situation.
When turning on the device it shows me the ASUS logo and in top of the screen a message says : ERROR: Can not boot Invalid boot image!!
And my big problem is that i can't access any of ADB, recovery mode or even fastboot. the phone is undetectable by my PC at all.
I don't know how to force fastboot ... if i can reach the beautiful fastboot mode i will be able to handle the next steps in the fixing journey.
I have red that as long as the device shows something it means that it is not totally bricked .. but how to get out of this situation?
Any suggestions ?

Sorry my englsih is´nt good.
So you can´t broken your phone with OTA Updates
You can delet all files and sysfile and the asus isn´t broken.
you just need patience.
make sure you have the correct driver
turn off your phone,
press vloume up and power, so the phone stay with boot logo, so you are in the fastboot mode.
there you can use my exploit btw the howto downgrade A86, but the downgrade dosent works.
so unzip the newest rom .zip out of asus page....
copy the boot.img and recovery.img in your minimal fast adb folder
so you can:
c:\ADB>fastboot -w ( really wipe all partions and data of your phone!)
c:\ADB\fastboot flash boot boot.img
c:\ADB>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
copy the complete OTA Update Zip on your phone (internal sd or external is matter)
reboot phone and install the zip out of recovery.
there may be errors come to the first, if that should be the case
then repeat the case up to 3 times
I hope you can read and understand it .
if you need further assistance , please contact me at any time , like even on my homepage lange23.de

Thank you for your help.
The issue is that the phone now is not detected by the pc at all , i can not access the fast boot ...

Do you really pressed Volume up and Power at the same time, if startet???
If the phone during normal start at the stops bootlogo that's not fastboot!!!
Turn really off an than hold volume up an press Powerbutton, hold it up to boot logo.
then you are really in fastboot mode!

after turning off
when i press volume up + power button the phone vibrates and the asus logo displayed. then i release power button and keep pressing volume up button => and after 1 second an error appears ERROR: Can not load Invalid boot image!!
when pressing power button + volume down button a menu appears with two options 1.Enter recovery mode and 2.Exit update mode.
when choosing option 1 , the menu disappeared and the asus logo appears without the previous error message.
when choosing option 2 , the the menu disappeared and the asus logo appears and the previous error message.
all these cases the phone didn't go to fastboot mode and never detected by the pc.

when i press volume up + power button the phone vibrates and the asus logo displayed. then i release power button and keep pressing volume up button don´t keep pressing volume up,
fasboot mode only power & up, until the logo. Pressing this two to logo and then left them. the logo sty tuned in display so you re in fastboot
if you pressing up too jump in question menü,
if you pressing at startup power & down jumped directly into question menü, but this menü is wrong for you. you need only fastboot nothing more

keep pressing on volume up button is not jumping in question menü, but shows logo + error message (can not load invalid boot image)
also pressing them to logo then releasing also shows logo + the error message.
i am also uploading a video to youtube to verify..

and without recovery its right?
And with error message and logo your pc find nothing new unkown devices?

Yes, no recovery
And yes PC does not find any new devices

I can not understand it...
I once the boot.img deleted in the phone and also get such error message .
but my systems find an Android device and i can use the fastboot

Any way , a good news that the phone was only few days out of its package and i managed to return it back to the seller and will send to me a new one.
But i am really disappointed with ASUS not to make any unlock tool for the new padfone infinity.
Once, i believed that as long as there is no physical damage in the phone, there will be always a way around to fix it by fastboot. but it discovered that it is not correct and the fast boot itself can be damaged..
Any way thank you so much the only man helped me here sinus23.

I got this problem too
Me too
I got this problem

guys you got to do this , i am having yureka plus5510a no fastboot no recovery

Bricked Moto E 2015 (XT1527) - Won't boot

Hello, I came to this forums looking to get some help with a device that a friend gave me to fix. He tried to install some sort of custom ROM on his phone (Moto E XT1527), and after installing it, Im not totally sure what did he touch, but now the phone only boots up to a screen saying the following:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)

(There could be some sort of typo on it)
So far I have tried with a tool that suposedly would flash a ROM into the phone without typing any commands, but it failed at some point.
As for unlocking the bootloader, I was abble to obtain the code, yet when I try to unlock it via fastboot, it says that I need the permission to "Allow OEM Unlock", wich I can't grant because of the SO not booting.
Regarding to what my friend did with it, he's not sure, but he think he deleted some sort of file
Im not an expert on this kind of stuff, yet I can follow steps that are given to me to provide any info or to execute a fix, so I would appreciate any kind of help from you to diagnose and solve this problem
Thanks in advance

A little bump

it can be simply solved ....if you are able to boot to fast boot mode
HOW TO BOOT INTO FAST BOOT
First of all, you have to power off your Moto E.
In order to do so, press power button once and then select “power off” or keep pressing the power button for about 15 seconds.
Wait a few seconds until applying the next step.
After powering off your phone, press power button and volume down key at the same time.
Keep pressing these buttons for about 6, or 7 seconds.
Release the keys when the fastboot / bootloader mode is being displayed.
In fastboot use volume up and volume down keys in order to scroll up and down within bootloader menu and press power button in order to select your option.
if it enters fast boot mod unlock boot loaders ....when it says grant permission using volume up or down button
then flash a custom recovery ...make a factory data reset after you flash custom recovery .....
after all above steps flash any custom rom this will fix all your issues ... you can also try to flash stock rom images via fast boot

Hello and thanks for your answer. I have managed to get into fastboot mode, yet I still can't unlock the bootloader. It stills asks me to grant OEM permissions. Is there any way to grant it without booting into the SO?

PCEU Ransomware

I have managed to get the PCeU Ransomware onto my Tab and now when I turn it on i immediately get the splash page asking me to pay up.
No matter what i do to try to get into Safemode or Recovery Mode it is no good I simply get the splash page up which prevents me getting any further in my attempts to remove it.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
I forgot to add that the usual method of getting into recovery is as far as I know the power button and volume up after turning the device off first (I have tried up and down volume as well)....i feel however that the device never completely turns off as when I hit the turn off option on the lock screen it shuts down but i dont feel the vibration that i used to get when it did this.

Try to force reboot recovery by using "adb reboot recovery" and wipe data and cache from here. If you want you can save data from TWRP
Greets

If you can get to download mode and reflash stock rom, it might work!

Cant get to download mode unfortunately. Is there any idiots guides for instructions for "adb reboot recovery"?
Scratch the above.. I found the above and was able to run the command prompt but the device does not appear to be found and when any command is run i get error: device '(null)' not found.
I can see the files on the device in Windows explorer however so would have assumed the drivers when correct.
I suspec the issue is that I cant get into usb debug because i cant get past the blasted ransomware splash screen.

Hard boot into recovery and then factory reset. Vol Up + Power until screen pops up then keep holding just volume up.

Moto G7 power (Forgot start-up pattern and cant do a factory neither recovery mode)

Dear Friends,
Please let me know if this post is in the wrong place.
I have an issue with my Moto G7 power, I restarted it and it asks for pattern access (to start up the phone and activate the finger print), I entered the pattern multiple times (I guess that I forgot my pattern) and it didn't accept it.
I tried to do the factory wipe, I can login to bootloader and when I select factory mode it will just boot again. And if I select recover mode then it shows a dead android with a red triangle and NO Command.
I would need your advice and guidance.
Thanks
