Nothing, it was under warranty. Even with unlocked bootloader.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedChili57:
somethink more?

tell us somethink more.:eek:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mato_d007:
I took it to the carrier, which in this case is Movistar (Telefonica), but they sent it to a service center that i suppose is from Motorola (they are the only ones who can have new legal boards, because IMEI) so its a bit hard to say. The warranty on paper says Motorola, so i guess i can safely say Movistar has nothing to do with the repair in the end.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motorola.lover1998:
these are only the backup files shawnsingh has to upload the unbricker first
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maerrati:
Only is required wait one more time, but right now [MENTION=5971957]shawnsingh[/MENTION] is verifying the possibilities to make a unbricker tool, not is possible try with the files inside the EMMC without a valid xml files to link and build the bootloader inside our devices.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .:Zypher:.:
You are very lucky.

I unlocked the bootloader to try repair by flashing ROM in fastboot mode. It did not work and after this I could not relock bootloader. Then I sent the phone to the technical service. And now my technical service want 120€ for repair because I am with unlocked bootloader. (Spain) You are in Argentina?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mato_d007:
I sent it knowing that the odds where low but as you said i got lucky. When i bricked it, i didnt flashed anything else so there was no way to even turn it on, i guess that helped as they didnt saw the warning screen for unlocked bootloader. On the other hand i couldn't relock it either so im not sure what happened. And yes, im in Argentina.

c'mon guys, stop punishing yourself's... this guy did the same on razr M forum, since november he is trying to unbrick the device and can't do it.

always askin for files, for backup, for a guy pm back, for time, for paciente...

and he won't help us, he can't unbrick our devices, he haven't the files that we need and even can't get them from a backup or dump system...

i already said: Thank you

shawnsingh

for trying!! but stop it now, please!!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatoneguydownthestreet:
So true. first it was the blue screen on his laptop then the links kept getting "corrupted" we appreciate his efforts but let be realistic. just because he says it a different way wont make it work.

To all you inexperienced members out there, don't fall for this type of stuff.

the only solution is leaked files.

NO there is no ETA's

NO there inst another way

so please stop asking.

if i where you i would start thinking about another phone.

when i got my moto G bricked i bought the ZTE Zinger and it was alright for 30 bucks.

today was my last straw, ive waited to long. i bought the L90 on swappa for 70 bucks.

Greetings!

I am just curious... Is Moto g 1st Gen only phone that got hardbricked? Can somebody please enlighten me about other android phones that got hardbricked due to same reasons? If there are any?

Best regards,

Mario
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedChili57:
Moto g 1sg gen phones are no logger produced :) when they produced new phone, they reloads the software from tar.gz file :) they doing the same Think In repair service, they need tar.gz file too.

Ergo

If moto g is no logger produced, they no need tar.gz . So i Think the tar.gz image of android 5.x.x does not exists :)

We have only OTA files from USERS. Maybe motorola will relese tar.gz with android 5.1, but i am 99% sure they will not :)

I HOPE I WAS WRONG.

I am not a developper. I am normal guy from Poland. I dont knows programming. I said goodbye to my MotoG. :)

I would like to ask all those who are familiar with programming , hacking , basically for repairing phones , teeth helped me , to all who need it.

stop arguing because it does not do anything ..

i have no money for new phone , service . i have no name BeUnited phone .

Se we can create the necessary files and get around security ? :(
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urover:
Exactly what I said several pages ago. Moto has no incentive to release the 5.x full firmware files if they're no longer making it. End of story. Go buy new phones everyone...

According to your theory, why Moto G 2nd gen doesn't have this tar.gz too?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monkey D. Luffy00:
This is very common with devices that enterprise and only search that will find this in different brands, but in the case of Motorola is recurring.

Just discovered this year that Motorola has a hardbricked smartphone history.

So much so that the older lines as Atrix always suffered from this evil and is still easy to find videos and articles on forums of this problem. All new Moto line "E", "G" and "X" suffer from this problem.

Note that any independent appliance manufacturer may suffer hardbricked, but in the case of Motorola is the company's own software that causes this.

Unlike other companies that is usually the third-party software.

---------- Post added at 11:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------

It is noteworthy that the recently launched Moto And 2015 also does not have the tar.gz

The only thing that ever has is the Nexus 6, but it is respnsabilidade Google. By the way, the unbrick the Nexus 6 starts in Moto G but gives the same mistake when it comes in single image.

Hi. Was trying to update my little brother's XT1032 to lollipop GPE. I was supposed to unlock boot loader first but I forgot when I came back from lunch and flashed straight away.

If they decided to move all efforts to upgrade these devices directly from KitKat to Lollipop 5.1 i think they could release image with files that we needs. :confused: but it is only my theory..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strongiukas:
OK guys, can someone explain me. I got also hardbricked phone. I'm reading this thread about 1 month. I'm reading all posts without exceptions. But I can't understand what we exactly need??? Someone got OTA files, someone backups of all partition. So is it not enough? I'm not a developer, but if the phone get an OTA, it have to reprogram all of its partitions. So... By mine mind, I think, that someone (who understand) should read OTA's script and get the code of programmer? If it is not true, then maybe someone can explain why my thoughts are bad?

Second thought: why developers can't take i.e. nexus 6's programmer and modify it to work with our phone? We don't have any documentation?

I'm just curious. I understand that, if it was so ease, it would be already unbricked.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liveroy:
Better read all over again to get better understanding of the matter, eventually.

No one really knows for sure what we need. Some say it's the programmer, some say it's the qboot or maybe even the singleimage or combination of these, but this is irrelevant.

If the tools leak, it will be posted here or somewhere around.

Some ppl already staretd conspiracy theories, others got no idea what they talk about with some crazy theories in broken English. What I think is that the files we need may come sometime soon from Verizon or won't leak at all.

Unknown Device USB

Hi

Have downloaded all the tools/software.. i start dseo13 and select "test mode" and then sign the driver:

C:\Users\Desktop\drivers\64Bit\qcusbser.sys

All is good, I reboot.

Windows starts, and on my tray it says "USB device not recognized".

when i plug my Moto G LTE in, i see it show up under devices (devmgmt.msc) as "Unknown Device" with a yellow mark. If i try to update the driver by right clicking the USB, properties, and selecting the folder above with the INF file in it, it says "Windows has already determined the software for your device is up to date".

Tried uninstalling, reinstalling the USB, different ports, doesn't work.

Any clues?

Not sure if i got the point....

Hey Folks,

i'm pretty much in the same situation (5.01 --> 4.4.2 ---> OTA 4.4.4 ---> Hardbrick). As i read throug pretty much of the whole thread, i came clear that my phone is hardbricked. But for which particular situation does the described HowTo in this Thread work?

I mean, i thought it would fit for my brick, but as people are claiming, it does not... First i tried to follow the HowTo, (back then my MotoG was recognized as "Qualcomm") - didn't work. And now my MotoG is recognized as "USB-HID".

So could anybody just make this a little more clear for me? And what about summarizing the essential information out of the 100pages to the first post?

Appreciate your help!
