Moto g5s hard brick no fastboot only blinking notification light

Mine motog5s updated to stock fw and root uninstalled after it it hangs on boot screen. I flashed stock fw again with fastboot but after restart mobile didn't display anything not even vibrate just blinking notification when connect usb wire . how to unbrick only shows qualcomm hs dloader 9008 what to do, pls. reply.

You cannot log into fastboot mode?

qualcomm hs dloader 9008 = EDL mode, you should be able to restore with QFIL: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/MOTO-E-1st-Gen/Moto-E-Not-Boot-Up/td-p/3231144 but it looks like motorola doesn't provide the files ... most likely you'll need a service center

Do not use QFIL. To unbrick, we need the blankflash file for G5S. And it is not on the Internet yet. Do not use the blankflash of any other models. Your best bet is to take the phone to a service center.

Did you try holding the power down button and turning on the phone to enter bootloader?

Thanks for the reply the service center guys sayin as bootloader is unlocked out of warranty. They said mobile is rooted without checking the mobile as its not turning on, how they can say that its rooted . They just talking on phone with other persons but cant provide any solution what can be done.
Please provide any other solution.

You downloaded the unlock key from Moto website by giving them your device serial number. That's how they know you unlocked bootloader. Service center won't help you. But fortunately, there is a way to revive your phone. But I'm not getting the blankflash file anywhere.
Tell me what exactly did you do to your phone.

Thank you,
Ok I just flahsed & tried stock roms, root & custom roms. Then I flashed stock rom of mine region firmware npp26.102.19 then motorola gave the updates to npp26.102.55-1 Dec. patch. Then next day new update came Feb patch npp26.102.55-4 just after it mobile started hanging & when restart it stuck on boot, not booting just stuck on boot animation. I tried TWRP recovery it said encrypted then I entered the unlock pin then it shows all the folders. Then I again fastboot npp26.102.19 to solve the issue but after flashing & restart it did not boot nor screen on no vibration tried several times but no response, when connect with pc or charger a white notification light blinking only & it detected as QHUSB_BULK something like that then I searched for it & install driver then shows as qualcomm dloader 9008.

Ok you should never flash an older bootloader over never one. It's a classic mistake that you made. I suppose we need the blankflash file to repair your phone. Let's wait to see what senior devs say.

Hey, i have unlock the bootloader of my phone and flash the updated rom in my device. After that my phone is just off, i press the power button but it don't turn on, connect do pc or chargers but it not turn on, that is the hard brick, can i have a solution to this?
I have this:
"The Hardbrick tutorial you always craved for
Let's get some things straight
Forget flashing stock firmware anymore this makes permanent changes to your phone's firmware but this is the only thing that will resurrect the fallen lad
Requirements
Albus blankflash
Qualcomm drivers
Adb and fastboot
Bootloader from Albus
Steps
Get the Qualcomm drivers installed… make sure you disable Driver Signature Enforcement for your windows version
Run the script in albus blankflash to get into a dummy bootloader
Now flash bootloader and partition files and recovery from addison2potter.zip
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now try flashing a stock firmware it will flash but you will not be able to boot right now
Now flash or boot TWRP recovery
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
fastboot boot TWRP.img
Now flash the debloated stock ROM or the TWRP Flashable stock build by Gtrcraft
(This is needed to get RIL back )
You should be able to boot into the stock ROM now
Now you can go back to TWRP and flash any ROM of your choice ".
But i don't know if it will work, because i don't know if this files can match my model: moto g5s xt1792
And sorry but i can't post links yet.
Please Help Us.

Hard bricked mi A2 lite need help to enter EDL mode

I unlocked eh bootloader , installed twrp then after flashing magisk ,I got a bootloop.
Afterwards i tried to flash the stock rom ,but I got the mismatching device and rom error, so decided to install a custom rom .
After I installed pixel experience P and THE SYSTEM IS DESTROYED.
So I went back to the stock rom and edited the Flash_all.bat file removing everything but the flash commands.
now I have bricked phone and I can't enter EDL mode . when I plugg it in Usb I get HS-USB Diagnostics 900E.
Any suggestion is welcome

thanks for your reply.
I succeded in entering the edl mode by opening the phone and shorting the JTAG pins.
After that I used mi flash tool with the srock rom and it worked

Just go to fastboot mode and type: "fastboot oem edl"
If you can´t enter fastboot, you have to open your phone and connect the testpoints, then connect cable to pc and releas the test-points
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhsRv42rsqI - here for the redmi 6 pro (same hw as mi a2 lite) - in min 2, the test points are shown!

1- install mi flash tool and Qualcomm driver on your Pc
2- open the phone (just remove the battery connector )
3-plug a USB cable in the device
4- short the jtag pins(you can find their location in this page www mobilerdx com/2018/09/xiaomi-redmi-6-pro-test-point-boot-into-edl-9008-mode.html
7-plug the USB cable in the Pc while shortening the pins
If you do these steps mi flash tool should reconize your device and you will be able to flash it

which rom can I flash on note 5 pro?

flashed global rom on a "note 5 pro" and it's bricked.
I tried flashing all whyred roms (stable, china, dev, global ....) after successful flash I can never boot.
That means I tried literally every rom from the following list:
https://en.miui.com/thread-2340434-1-1.html
and I can't boot the device after flashing.
Something interesting happened, I tried flashing "wayne" china rom, device can boot - I get fastboot with robot logo with a message "press any key to shutdown".
So how come when I flash whyred roms on a SD636 I can't boot, but when I flash wayne images I can boot to fastboot mode "press any key to shutdown"?
At the end which rom can I use to unbrick my device?

1) what is that wayne images ? :silly:
2) what is your ARB code ?
and
" I get fastboot with robot logo with a message "press any key to shutdown"
I was getting this message too hence unable to flash TWRP.
The solution worked for me was the use of USB 2.0 !!! :silly:
once TWRP is flashed you can try each n every rom present in xda forum

1. After I flash this image via EDL mode (Qualcomm 9008) http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.8.23/wayne_images_8.8.23_20180823.0000.00_8.1_cn_8f053946e3.tgz I can boot and I get "press any key to shutdown"
2. It's not possible to read the ARB code because I can only enter EDL mode or Fastboot but I get "press any key to shutdown", so no connection either.
I have 4 usb ports on my pc, they're all 3.0. Can't disable xHCI in Bios.
I guess I have to buy old usb 2.0 hub.

Flash stock rom using xiaomi flash too in edl ..
If edl fails flash using the same tool in fastboot mod ..

try to flash fastboot rom using Mi-flash tool in fastboot mode.

I don't have fastboot or recovery.
Flashing stock roms doesn't work. I get "can not read from port COM xy" every time.
If I put the programmer's file prog_emmc_firehose_Sdm660_ddr.elf in stock rom's images directory then I can flash, but the phone doesn't boot afterwards.
If I try to flash another wrong rom, for example wayne which is for another snapdragon model,
if I put the same file prog_emmc_firehose_Sdm660_ddr.elf in this directory wayne_images_8.8.23_20180823.0000.00_8.1_cn/images I can boot only in fastboot but I can't connect to PC because it's the fastboot mode for another telephone., not for redmi note 5 pro

Unbrick realme x

Hi it's me again
i've bicked my phone last week, it only shows the image of realme and then a text that says the boot/recovery image have been destroyed, the problem with this brick its THE BOOTLOADER ITS BLOCKED AND THE PHONE CANT START THE RECOVERY, so the options are pretty limited, plus my device is china version.
The things and tools that i've been trying are:
*ADB FASTBOOT (i know i already said that the bootloader it's blocked but i had to try)
*Qualcomm snapdragon flash tool QIFL
*Qualcomm premium tool
*XTM Inferno tool
*OPPO download tool
*MSMDownload tool
Yeah, i've tried a few things already (not too much to be honest), but with everyone theres a problem.
Adb dont recognice because its not in fastboot, QIFL needs a xml file but the roms don't have it, and i dont know how to program it, XTM inferno tool dont recognice the device, and oppo and msm download tool needs an account, if anyone knows what can i do now, please let me know, i'm a little bit sad cause i haven't made it to unbrick

So sad that you can't enter fastboot. It seems that means you can't send commands to your phone.
Recently, I saved my "soft brick" China version RMX. I also get "boot/recovery image have been destroyed" notification, but I can enter fastboot mode (power+Volume-), and my fastboot is unlocked. I used "fastboot flash recovery" cammand to flash TWRP and another command for vbmeta (https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...very-unofficial-twrp-realme-x-stable-t3959556). However, the response in "Windows Command Prompt" is "Failed unknown error".
So I decided to power off and charge my phone. After power off, there is thunder icon, a symbol for charging in powe off state, on the screen. Sunddenly, the phone boot into TWRP automaticly. I connected it to my laptop at once and find TWRP MTP service works which means I can copy the 2.6 GB stock Color OS zip (RMX1901CN_flashable_A17.zip, https://forum.xda-developers.com/realme-x/how-to/guide-to-stock-rom-stock-recovery-t3974607
, https://sourceforge.net/projects/rmx1901/files/custom_recovery_StockROM_flashable_files/) to internal storage (/sdcard), and I installed it successfully, though there was "Unmount to mount storage" error when I wiped Data in TWRP.
Reboot to system succesfully and showed Color OS setting guide, which showed at the first time you turn on the phone. Recovery changed to oppo stock Recovery, but the unlocked fastboot mode didn't change.
I am not sure wether the link is useful for cracked MSMDownload tool :https://www.techoxygen.com/msm-download-tool/

Flash official ofp format stock ROM in EDL mode might be helpful. The links offer ofp ROM, guide & password for download tool. An XDA post also mentioned this link. But I'm still confused about the difference between RMX1901 and RMX1901EX model. Some custom ROM is universal for India and China variant on XDA .

Hi dude, at this time I have not found a way to do it without realme tech support, or remote flash tool.
This device needs a “permission” of realme servers to get flashed. If your device is India version you can ask to boy cracker staff, if your device is China version maybe combine file staff can help.
If you have the option of send it to realme tech support, you should take it

Its indian version. please help i did many things. i cannot go to booloader and fastboot mode

Bro yesterday I got an update from reami I updated to android 11 my bootloader was not unlocked and update was failed no recovery stuck on logo i Tryed to flash with msm but still no responce its indian version 1901 any solution please ?

But I can't tried ufs

system destroyed, when in fastboot mode and plug to the pc (device not recognised)

So, a few months ago I rooted my device with twrp and then installed magisk manager... A few days later the manager stopped working and I got tired of not being able do do nothing so I tried to unroot. I used mi flash to flash the daisy rom and it didn't work so I tried to load to the twrp app and flash through there. Didn't work either. From then on every time I boot the device it shows the message "the system has been destroyed" and Bc of that I searched for solutions. I kinda found one. I boot to fastboot mode and with the platform tools I write on the command line ". /fastboot devices" and then it shows my device. After I write ". /fastboot boot continue" and it starts booting the device and it has worked for like 2 months but 2 days ago I had to reboot my device Bc it started to freeze but when I load to fastboot mode and plug it to the pc it show a prompt saying "the device is not recognized" and the device reboots to the message "system has been destroyed". Pls help, I've searched everywhere and didn't find any solution

Are you have your bootloader unlocked? I guess no, the most "easy" solution for your problem is test point , never fail, you need to download Qualcomm drivers (search in Google) open your device connect your device, your phone need to be recognized like 9008 in manager drivers of your PC then flash stock room in mi flash (flash all option) my recommendation is flash 10.0.13.0 or 10.0.18 version of stock rom, good luck.
