[guide] hard brick [needs testing ] - Moto G5 Guides, News, & Discussion

I'd like to say thanks to the live chat for this info
This is pretty much a fail safe recovery
If this fails we have no luck till blank flash
1. Make sure the phone is plugged into a wall charger
2. Press and hold the VOL DOWN key
3. While still holding the VOL DOWN key, press and hold the POWER key
4. Hold both keys down for over 120 seconds. This is more than 2 minutes and will seem like a long time, it will help to time this to ensure the customer holds the keys long enough. Note, it must be more than 2 minutes!
5. After holding the keys down for more than two minutes, release the POWERkey first and then release the VOL DOWN key a few seconds later.
6. The Fastboot screen will display, and the Normal Reboot option will be highlighted
7. Press the VOL UP key and the device will reboot normally or go into fastboot

i've tried in so many ways and the only way I can find my phone in my pc is qualcomm something 9008

This method does not work. I've tried five times and nothing.
Almost fifteen minutes pressing buttons.

I'm here to help , not to be treated like a piece of dirt u can stamp on

If there is an issue with the actual bootloader such as it missing, then this method obviously won't work, you can't simply summon it if you don't have it.
If this is meant for booting one into recovery then it couldn't be done if for example the user had no recovery partition, and could not flash a recovery as their device is not recognised by another which had the ability to flash via fastboot.
Has there ever been an incident in which this method has worked?

Is it going into recovery mode? Try pressing volume up and down key plus power button.
If it goes into recovery then wipe cache and try reboot.
Hope it helps

Could you go to bootloder (unplug the battery for 5 secs, replug, and connect to PC while pressing Volume UP button)? If you can't, disconnect your YU from PC, unplug the battery again for 5 secs, replug, and connect to PC while pressing the phone power button, then go to Windows' "Device Manager", make a screenshot of it, and post it here.

This is a confusing and misleading guide! It should be removed before causing more trouble to people.
Simultaneously pushing all thee buttons: Volume-Up + Volume Down + Power will cause an immediate Factory Wipe/Reset!
At least this is true for Stock AOS 6.
IDK what you tested this on!??

Full brick lg k8 k350n 2016

Hello, as the title says I have a full brick, I have tried to testpoint without results, when connecting to the pc install drivers and disconnected after 3 seconds, lgup does not recognize the model, the problem was when installing a custom rom that said the web that was for my cell phone lg k8, I lost the guarantee, what can I do ?.
I've tried everything already and on google I find nothing. Thank you.
I have already researched a bit and the boot.img is the kernel is what I installed, is there no economic way to repair the kernel? a software?

Well when you install/flash wrong kernel things can get very ugly, or it can refuse to flash in your case it seems like a hard bricked. Did you tried guides for unbricking from this and K10’s forum? Can you access fastboot?

The mobile does not go in any way with any combination of possible keys, I do not know where the testpoint is, it does not go into the download mode and it does not even leave the logo of lg.
Sorry for my english I use the google translator.

So the LG logo appears?
We'll try this :
Press the power key until it gives you vibrate or any sign that phone is going to power on, the press and hold volume down it should give you all black screen with text on bottom saying fastboot mode. If it doesn't try all this but with volume up instead of volume down. I'm not even sure how to enter fastboot since I usually do it from ADB.

Is there no program to launch it fastboot directly?
Mine was bricked.
My solution was to enter in download mode, because other modes just rebooted the phone.
So follow this, and luck:
1-you need a PC turned on and the USB cable plugged already
2-quit the battery of the phone
3-now the phone is obviously off, you have to put the battery in WHILE holding volumen up button and then plug the USB still holding that button
It will enter download mode.
If step 3 doesn't work, try the same but with power button held too, with volume up.
Follow this then:

It seems you corrupted aboot partition. If sbl is still from Nougat you can try entering download mode with EDL cable (or do a makeshift EDL cable with tin foil).

Huawei P9 Lite Bricked

Hello everyone. Huawei P9 Lite 2016. It doesn't go into Recovery, nor eRecovery and Fastboot also does not load, in general, not one combination of buttons does not work. I think the system is removed, what should I do? How do I achieve something myself?
Well, if your phone is unable to go into fastboot (hold volume- and plug it into a computer), I have some very bad news for you... What did you do??

Nothing at all.. It had very strong lags, I couldn't make anything, I restarted it delaying the power button for 10 seconds and so several times, and then made through the buttons hard reset, performed successfully, already turned on but still had so strong lags and now it isn't react at all, just a black screen and the red indicator is constantly on. I think that simply the system has been deleted and it is necessary to write down again, but how, the combination of buttons doesn't work at all

Yes. It makes nothing. Black screen and red indicator always.
Do you still have warranty on it? If you did not even unlock bootloader, then try to send it in for a warranty repair. Something on the motherboard must have gone bad..
