[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] flash713:
My model is the 1955-5 Metro by TMobile Qualcomm.. I already wrote some posts here and explained best I could what I did exactly to get it to complete. It never was a fast set down and run the blank flash and I'm done thing. It took a lot of time for me every time I did it. What I mean by it took a lot of time is I ran the blank flash for about maybe 10-12 hours (not on a row haha! 30 mins here and there) and tried various things such as: switching ports on my laptop, switching USB cables and holding button combos and releasing them at different times. There was no secret or pattern , not for me anyway that I saw. It was always random when they'd finally finish and my phone would turn on. Just don't give up. And whatever the terminal tells you as far as errors don't even pay attention to it because the six times I got mine to complete it had all kinds of different errors and I looked them all up and researched what they meant and whatnot but in the end that meant nothing because they all finished eventually regardless of what the terminal read about all the errors.

What I believe worked best for me and got them to finish was not closing terminal windows. And I read this here and on Lenovo Moto blank flash forum and some other forum I can't recall but when you open a window to run the blank flash and it starts and stops, freezes up on you for say 40 -50 seconds or so .. I would minimize it and open another and keep running it and switching USB ports and cables. Every time it finished it would be the USB cable that didn't work the last time or a different port. There wasn't ever any patterns but leaving the windows open , that's how mine finished 5 of the 6 times. I only ever got to actually see visually the blank flash complete once so all the other times it finished in the background in another window. See what in saying....

Just whatever you do don't smash the phone with a hammer or your computer or scare the dog though. ?? During the times I did this it would be somewhat frustrating after what seemed like a never ending run of the blank flash occured and had zero results but in the end many months later after I had first bricked it I have my phone back because I didn't stop. Hell at one point I thought for a second that someone was on the other line messing with me. Haha! The operator as it says on the file. LMAO!

The last two times I did my button combos like this: I would run the ./blank-flash.sh on my laptop and have my USB plugged in to Port but not my phone. So terminal read: waiting for device... I held down power button and volume either up or down and counted to 10-12 in seconds in my head. Then I would still holding the buttons down plug up my USB to phone and release the buttons at the same time at different intervals. Like once I plugged phone back in while it was going I would watch it start in terminal window and count out seconds , sometimes I would release button combo at 1 second after I plugged back up as soon as the blank flash started, other times id release buttons at 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 seconds after I plugged back in while it was "waiting for device"... Try that and see. I could run that **** left handed drunk with one eyeball now I ran it so many times before. ?? Thank God for the blank flash and the person who released it to the public!
