I failed on root. My brand new Moto X has been hardbricked. - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[Solved] Yesterday I tried to root my phone but after do all the steps that were on the sites, I couldn't turn it on anymore. Everytime I try it makes the bootloader but when it ends, the moto x turns off again. I don't know what happened someone told me that it names hardbrick so, can anyone tell me how to fix it? Or if it's possible.
If you need some information to help me, just ask. [Solved]

If you can get to the bootloader is not bricked.
Look up how to use fastboot to flash the system and boot img.

First, please tell us how you got in this situation. What did you do that ultimately led to the inability to boot?
Additionally, it is perfectly normal for your phone to have a locked bootloader. All Verizon variants (except the Dev edition) are not able to have the bootloader unlocked, unless you are able to get a code from the 'China middleman' (use search if interested).

OK your phone has always been locked - you just didn't notice it before. Not to worry... This is easily fixed. Please find the thread in the general forum "return to 100% stock" and follow the instructions to flash the entire sbf for you phone. All the links to everything you need including the firmware files themselves are in that thread.
Be careful to NOT downgrade.... It will brick your phone. Only flash the same or later firmware than what is already on it.
Good luck. You will be fixed up in no time if you follow those instructions.
:good:

[xt1068] Moto G 2014 bricked more than once, which stock firmware to use?

Hello all, a while ago my Moto G runnning CM 12.1 suddenly crashed, got stuck in bootloop and upon factory reset it got bricked with access just to the bootloader. I brought it to a friend who was able to install stock firmware and then CM 13, the phone worked fine for a few days just to have the same issue all over again.
I did as he told me, and basically went through the process of flashing stock firmware as per this post., but it fails when flashing motoboot. My friend said he "bombed" the device with all the (failed) commands anyway until the phone was completely dead for a few hours, then recharged it and was finally able to flash the firmware. I tried doing the same but I never got past the motoboot bit as mentioned above.
I used
RETAILDSDSALL_XT1068_5.0.2_LXB22.46-28_cid7_CFC.xml

I've scoured many posts but haven't really found any specific answers as to how to identify the correct firmware out of those up for download, I can provide other info if needed. The phone has been revived before so I guess it is doable again, thanks for your help and have a good year everyone! :highfive:

Slow down...
Give some (as much as possible really) details as to what you've done to end up where you are.
Preferably in a normal non-centered text because what you've done there is hard on the eyes (read: annoying) and almost put me off answering...

Well as you get the info ready, I will give you some advise. RSD is useless on the nexus 6. It is moto software for moto software and the nexus is is moto in name only.
Also the drivers for the moto E and nexus 6 might not be the same thing. Just because it is a moto doesnt mean anything.

wake up found it stuck in bootloader i didnt do anything
i cant flash rom or do any thing
If you have no ROM, cannot enter recovery, and did nothing to bring this state of affairs about, your phone most likely has a dead EMMC storage chip. You can verify this by trying to flash a stock ROM using the fastboot command, but be aware that attempting to use that Lenovorola program you mentioned could have done significant damage to the device, as that program is not intended for this device.
Should we be able to confirm a dead EMMC chip, there's not that many options available. If you are still under manufacturer warranty you can send the device to Lenovorola for repair at no cost. Otherwise, you'd have to pay for the repair. You could instead purchase a replacement, or purchase a device with a broken screen and swap motherboards (and SIM trays).

Need help

Hey guys n girls,
I'm going to root my phone. First off the why? I recently discovered PlayStation remote play and use it on my computer. I was excited to use it on my phone but then found out only Sony phones work I guess...

First you must unlock bootloader from official motorola site.
Google unlock moto x 2014 and do it.
Second you must download adb and fastboot to your pc.
Third with adb flash twrp.
And last flash supersu with tuttorial from xda .
Keep walking.
Thanks. Any chance you can attach links for downloads for PC and also files. If u can add tutorials I can follow those too. I have rooted couple times before but if I do the moto that's my actual phone and I don't want to mess it up. Will it mess with my plan or screw me over in any way? I've only done phones I don't use.
Thanks again for any help

Thank you I will read and try. And as far as if I root the zte maven 2 I would just get the drivers for zte and switch the product name in command lines correct?
First off thanks for your help and anybody else who may contribute.
ive been trying to listen and follow lol. anything with (...) is stuff
i added
First you must unlock bootloader from official motorola site.
Google unlock moto x 2014 and do it.
(the link you added brought my to a page i click next and tryed to sign up
it said i had an account so i signed in with the email on my phone an then it
brought me to a page that wasnt available. So do you have another link or is
there something im missing. im having trouble unlocking it)
Second you must download adb and fastboot to your pc.
(i downloaded
*minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.2_setup application
*motoroladevicemanager_2.5.4 application)
Third with adb flash twrp.
(few things.
*adb is just command prompt right?
*flash? i know means install sorta of. do you have command line?
*the link had three things to click on
1.this was on white screen
58337e4962e12d37f740a417601db4e3 twrp-3.1.1-0-victara.img
2. twrp-3.1.1-0-victara disc /image file
3. twrp-3.1.1-0-victara.img.asc /asc file)
And last flash supersu with tuttorial from xda .
(once again, flash? im assuming i just need command line like,
adb install supersu.apk.
*also files i downloaded were
1. update-supersu-v2.76-20160630161323 /compressed zip
2. root-boot-6.0-xt1097-mpes24.49-18-7 /compressed zip)
***So is there any files im missing to root?
How do i unlock my bootloader or whatever it is? (link didnt work for me)
What is flash?(i think install)
it says my device does not qualify to unlock bootloader. so yea I don't want to give up but that killed my hopes. I can get into fasboot flash mode and have boot mode selection menu and it says device is still locked. I got the link to work and used fastboot oem get_unlock_data used their program to have same layout for unlock code and it says your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking. if anyone can help thanks

Some variants of the Moto X 2014 cannot be unlocked. Put the phone in Bootloader Mode and:
fastboot getvar all
Copy and save all the info into a Notepad file, then go to the Moto/Lenovo Forums here:

I figured I could do it manually or a custom firmware would help. if I install twrp somehow as a recovery is there a way to root of that? I just don't get y I cant unlock bootloader. I understand that I cant, but don't get how there isn't a way around it. once again thanks people. this is a bummer...........................

I've not experienced this.
Are you rooted / bootloader unlocked?
Do you have any idea what caused it?
Were you able to recover?
If so, what did you have to do?

Did you do anything to the bootloader by flashing any files? Did you unlock the bootloader? If the answer is yes then you might have an issue with flashed files.
If no and you have not touched the device then you might have a rare error. If you have a carrier phone with Verizon you might want to try their "repair assistant" which is the same as what is mentioned on the phone screen. It seems to have a repair function. You will have to connect the phone via USB to your computer. Download the assistant from here. https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-209211/
If you don't have a Verizon moto x4 or you have another carrier then either still give the software a shot or take it to a Motorola service centre.
Can pretty much confirm the same with an old moto z force post on the Lenovo forums. If you have Verizon downloading the software will solve the problem.
I know that I was trying to flash to stock and that was the result, rsd can see the device but when I flash it it says failed to switch to fastboot
Yea bootloader has been unlocked for weeks and started acting up and I was trying to clear it and start over and no I can't get it to flash spar_chunks
Any ideas
Notice you mentioned RSD failing to switch to fastboot... I assume you tried reflashing the GPT/bootloader directly from fastboot?
If you hit volume up/down from the screen you posted, does it go through the other fastboot screens?
No i get the quausb or whatever that is in my comp for deviecs now...and no screen mow and yes the parition was compermised by error on my part
