Moto E4 MediaTek hard bricked? - Moto E4 Questions & Answers

Well, I never thought I would have to do this but now, I have to. I have a Motorola Moto E(4) woods, mediatek and not plus. So I tried to install TWRP into it and did it successfully - or so I thought. It wouldn't turn on. It would boot to TWRP but not to the normal system. When I tried to boot to normal system, it would get stuck in the Motorola logo. So dumbass me, I downloaded stock firmware to flash with SP Flash Tool. I did flash it but what I didn't know until it completed was the fact that it wasn't Moto E4 woods firmware, it was instead Moto E4 Plus firmware
So, now what? Once I try to boot it, the display doesnt do anything. The only signs of life are the led charging light on the front of the phone which comes on than turns off when I connect it to charger. The other one is the LED flash next to the camera which turns on after the charging light goes off. And lastly it randomly vibrates while charging and that's it. When I connect it to PC, it behaves like normal charging except the connect-disconnect sounds my PC makes, than the phone vibrates and that's it. One time I connected it to PC , my PC made the connect sound but not the disconnect sound. adb devices would not show it but the SP flash tool would. Then I accidentally disconnected it and... Done.
So, is there any hope for this phone? Can unbrick it at home with my PC the phone itself? I am waiting for your answers.
Thank you for your time.

Had the same problem, was repaired under warranty. It was charging in recovery mode however (no calls/sms in recovery but the rest is working). Problem seems somewhat widespread, so even if your warranty's over, I'd try to contact support and give them the usual "I've been a faithful Motorola customer blablabla" and see what happens. I was still under warranty but had a ding on the corner, so had to stand my ground. Good luck!

well, you can see this like an oportunity to (with a little effort) buy some android one device to get years of google's support. right now there's a lots of devices within the android one program and for any type of budget.

I've got almost the same symptoms with the same phone.
It didn't boot while disconnected from a charger.
Being connected to the charger, it tried to boot and almost immediately failed. It also blinked 3 times with red on every my attempt to turn it on.
I've remembered about battery and background surface replacement, that had happened before.
Verifying the background surface i found out, that it's not sealed tightly to the phone body. Inspecing internals i've disconnected and tightly connected the battery.
Also, i've firmly installed the background phone body surface and heated it for better coupling.
As a result, i was able to charge and boot the phone after this procedure.
P.S.
From my point of view, you need to disassemble the background phone body surface and re-connect the battery wire to the phone internal socket.

[HELP] Redmi Note 4(3+64) RED STATE

I have a redmi note 4 mediatek variant and it's been stuck in bootloop for the past 2 days. It keeps restarting and doesn't go into fastboot mode.
The bootloader is locked. It won't go into recovery or fastboot. Sometimes it turns on when holding the power button but then goes into a bootloop.
This was the message last displayed on the phone:
RED STATE
YOUR DEVICE HAS FAILED VERIFICATION AND MAY NOT WORK PROPERLY
YOUR DEVICE WILL BOOT IN 5 SECONDS
And then it shut down and hasn't responded since.
Going to a service center probably won't help since this is a chinese variant and I live in India. The service centers here are mostly useless.
All help is greatly appreciated.
You can always try to do test point. Download official rom file and flasher, make sure to install fastboot drivers. Take apart your phone and connect two golden contacts on the motherboard while plugging in USB cable connected to PC. The phone should boot up to bootloader and you should be able to flash rom.
Test points should look like this: http://en.miui.com/thread-646232-1-1.html (scroll down, there is one photo)

I somehow got it working by completely draining out the battery and then booting. It worked for a while normally (around 30 min) and then went into a bootloop again.

Redmi 7A Dead, No display, no fastboot, no recovery

I have some previous threads on my Redmi 7A dead... but no one responded, some did but said I can't fix it, buy a new phone. I am not in a financial condition to buy a new phone. All I can do is fix this phone and continue using it till I get a new phone. But since 3 weeks I am not able to use my Redmi 7A. I was hopeless that this phone could be repaired or could be used again but I went through a few videos on YouTube and saw a ray of hope but still I was helpless I tried booting it into EDL mode using the test point method but nothing worked out. Please I NEED HELP to fix this phone. I have a brief description below of the timeline about how it
crashed, how it was in the service center, what happened after it.
Alright so,
At March 13, It was on AOD (I know it is not supported keep reading), running nusantra os latest version for (Mi-439 aka Redmi 7A, 8) which was last updated on Dec 4, 2022. So when It was on AOD I tried to unlock the phone and it froze. So I rebooted it abnormally. After it was booting it stuck on the Redmi logo but it wasn't going ahead, not showing the boot animation. So I tried to boot it in recovery mode, when it was booting in recovery mode the phone was just shutting down and trying to reboot itself again but it couldn't. So I tried to wipe everything using fastboot commands and the command which I used was -w. So after that instead of waiting at the redmi logo it was stuck in a bootloop, in fact booting in the bootloader (fastboot mode). So after that I lost hope and gave it to the nearby service center. Please note that the phone was turning on before giving it to the service center. After like one day I went there to check if it was done, they say that it's a hardware problem, they are not able to fix it, When I came home the phone didn't boot neither in the fastboot mode nor It was turning on. So I thought it's not charged so I charged it for 1.5 hours but still there was no sign of life. I asked them about the phone not turning on they told me that it's a hardware issue and hung up the phone, said I am in a hurry I will call you later. Till this day I received no call. So Now I am posting this because I see some hope of EDL mode. I even tried to boot it in the EDL mode but still it was neither booting in the EDL mode nor my computer is detecting my phone (I have all the drivers installed). Please help ASAP.

1. does the led light up when you charge it?
2. what does you pc device manager show when you plug it in? (do you hear the windows sound?)
try every button combination that is possible. i mean two buttons at the same time, three buttons, all buttons... and for about even up to 1 minute (because this brought my 7A back from just led light when charging to pc detected a usb device)
i can't reproduce your brick but i managed to debrick via edl mode once on a "complete dead" (only led lights up when charging) so i think you can do that too.
also as long as you work with the EDL Tool, deactivate your Firewall (and don't forget to activate it again) just so be sure.
3. are you trying to enter edl mode via adb terminal? i would say you have to open the back cover and enter edl mode via hardware bridge from edl point to ground.
and as far as i can remember you have to be really quick between "starting" (booting) edl mode on the phone and make the phone "accept" edl mode. i think i first made the hardware bridge and then pluged the usb in.
i will dig deeper again in the next few days so i can give you better info's
