I had rooted my phone which is MOTO E (first generation)XT 1022. After rooting my phone i degraded my phone from lollipop to kitkat 4.4.2. Then I updated my phone to kitkat 4.4.2 to kitkat 4.4.4. After doing that process my phone hard bricked. I tried to recover my phone from hard brick situation but i could not but after running blankflash.bat file "failed <blank-flash:greet device:error reading packets> "is shown. please help me !
I have followed given approach:
What is A Brick?
A Brick Usually Occurs when you Flash a Wrong Firmware on your device or you try to downgrade your bootloader. In both the cases if you see nothing but a blank screen and "qhsusb_bulk" when connecting to the computer (Check Devices and Printers on your PC) .
Prerequisites
Stock Moto E Firmware of your Choice
Motorola USB Drivers
MFastbootv2
Blanflash
RiffBox JTAG Drivers
INSTRUCTIONS
If you have A 64-Bit Processor you'll need to disable driver signature Enforcement. Press F8 while the computer is booting and then choose the option.
Go To Start and search for Device Manager
Plug in your Moto e
You'll See qhsusb_bulk
Now select update driver Software
Choose from the Riffbox Jtag Drivers.
Now you'll see Qualcomm HS-USB QLoader 9008
Unzip the motorola qboot utility and run blankflash.bat
Now Enter into fastboot from your Moto e
You can now flash the firmwares compatible with your bootloader version

You're device is hard bricked (as you know ) & can only be recovered by changing the motherboard by Motorola which will cost you about 2/3 of original price. So your right choice would be to buy a new phone.
WORD OF CAUTION- Never accept any ota updates after you mess up with your bootloader, recovery, root etc. Wait for an official firmware release.
You should've searched a little bit before clicking on that tempting "yes, I'm in" button. There are so many of users just like u who bricked the device in the same way.
I know it feels bad to hear but there's nothing you can do abt it so, chill.✌
You should've researched more :

it's right there in the general section as a sticky post... that degrading to 4.4.2 and OTAing to 4.4.4 will surely brick the phone..... still I don't know why people make this mistake....

where are YOU gonna find another motherboard? moreover HOW are you gonna change the motherboard?
only service centre have the ability and prerequisites to do that..
there is no method to unbrick our hardbricked condor (xt1022) motorola moto e.
i hate to break this to you but you phone is screwed (you're not alone, though).
there's this one guy who claims that he succesfully unbricked his phone but he is LAZY AF to make a post

hi..,
i rooted my device moto xt1022 and flashed cm13. my phone got soft bricked when i was updating to other update of cm13. then i downgraded my device to kitkat. after few days my sim was not being detected and also battery started to drain fast so i turned off my phone and didn't use my phone for two weeks. now when my device charged with difficulty and when it's turned on it displayed the message "unfortunately android.phone stopped" also similar messages appeared from keyboard app...they were appearing for every second hence i thought of changing the software and i powered off my device. when i tried to go to recovery mode it didn't respond NOT EVEN TURNING ON,, i think my device is hard bricked can anyone help me......??
Hey guys. I've been in touch with Motorola about my bricked Moto G6, and they seem way too incompetent to simply provide me with a blank-flash file for my device. Allow me to begin by copy pasting the paragraph i typed to Motorola.
"Hi. I am in search of the Blank-flash file for the Moto G6 XT1925-6. Lenovo seems to be very bad at understanding what the blank-flash file actually is which is sad when you take into consideration that they developed the software for the device. Again, to clarify, it is the BLANK FLASH file for the device, not the ROM. I am not attempting to unlock the boot-loader as it has already been unlocked (motorola seems to think this is what i want to do as well and are refusing to support me in unlocking the boot-loader). I repeat, I am in search of the B L A N K F L A S H file for the moto G6 XT1925-6. If somebody out there could either extracty theirs from their device and send it over, or better yet, one of the bright minds over at Motorola who designed the device could graciously bless me with a small piece of their software so I can enjoy their phone again, that would be great. Please do respond as soon as possible. I have provided a blank-flash file as example so you don't get too confused, as well as the blank-flash folder I am using which will actually contain logs about the attempted flash of the blank flash file. I attempted to use the blank-flash file from Android PIE, as you can see it is labeled PPS and not OPS.
AGAIN, since this seems to be so difficult for motorola to understand, it is the blankflash file i am in search of, not the method to unlocking the boot-loader. Thank you."
The device is being detected in Windows 10 as a Qualcomm device which suggests it is still possible to flash it with a blank-flash file in order to reach fast-boot and re-flash the stock firmware.
NOPE see below
I have been searching for this little piece of software for over a week only to fine the blank-flash files for the G6 PLUS and PLAY versions, not just the mid-range G6 model. Below, as promised to be included, is the blankflash file i was attempting to use which does contain logs of the attempted flash. For ease's sake i have also provided a link to just the logs so you don't have to extract the rar.
Logs: NOPE see below
Blankflash file attempted to use: NOPE see below
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to search for this file. I'd love to start actually using the Moto g6 again rather than using it as a paperweight and relying on my Samsung J3 Orbit as a main driver. Sad.
EDIT: even SADDER, I have been prevented from providing crucial informational links aiding in resolving the issue due to XDA policy. If you would like these links, you're going to have to obtain them from me elsewhere (unless i circumvent the policy and post them in a broken link like suuuuch.)

I also need a blank flash file for moto G6. we can find the flash file of G6 play and plus but not mid-range Moto G6. It's not fair My phone was dead after OTA update and now it is a totally useless piece of ****. If we get that small blank flash file then we may bring our devices back to life. Please help us.:crying::crying:

Hello dear happy owners of Moto G6 bricks.
Please, would you be so kind as to accept me into your team of elite owners of useless nutcrackers based on the Motorola Moto G6.
My XT1925-5 device was also hardbricked, after upgrading to Android 9.0 Pie and installing the latest security updates.
Also, when trying to flash the blankflash_PPS29.26 utility.bat receive
error: Sahara Download IO Error.
Email me if there are any positive results when getting a smartphone memory dump and creating a new blankflash for the latest OTA.
This is my contact email ([email protected]) if there are people willing to collaborate to write a new Blank Flash together.
I have to admit, when I joined XDA not long ago, I thought my easily bricked Moto G6 Play (Jeter) was a special case or that I was uniquely special when it comes to comatosing devices. Now, a few months and several more limping devices later, I see there truly is a seemingly growing mass of useless Motorola Moto owners out there. Whats worse is the Lenovo/Motorola Rescue Assistant wont rescue me because the Baseband and IMEI are erased on my device. Guess its time to take the next big step...invest in another G6 and see how long it is before I tater that one too!
Any news here, guys?
Hello everyone! I am in dire need of help.
So I recently decided to acquire a regular Motorola G7 because I had heard its battery is fantastic. This far, I have been loving it.
But silly me decided I wanted to explore OEM boot unlocking to eventually root the device. After successfully completing theses tasks, I installed the TWRP recovery. Sadly, something (must have) went wrong because when I tried to reboot, the phone went into hard brick. Completely unresponsive, holding both power and vol. down button for 2+ minutes did nothing. I basically have exhausted every Internet recommendations thus far and nothing has been fruitful.
I have been able to get the Qualcomm Port 9008 (COM3) to show up in device manager when I hold power and vol. down. Also, the program QPST also recognizes a phone in Sahara download mode (although I have no idea what it means nor what to do with that, if anything).
So here I am, asking for your help. I have read somewhere that a blankflash zip file could allow me to restore my phone but alas, I wasn't able to find any nor would I know what to do with it.
I would greatly appreciate any help.
Regards,
Afireblood.
Edit: I have managed to find a way to potentially salvage my bricked phone, using QIFL tool to flash a stock rom. However, to do so I need some files (which are proper to the Moto G7 - any other would not do). They are:
programmer (firehose?).mbn
rawprogram.xml
patch.xml
If anyone has any clue where I could find that (except everywhere on Google - it hasn't been helpful), I would very much appreciate it!

Update: Now in search of the Moto G7 specific blankflash.zip
If anyone knows where I can find that I would really appreciate it!!
I am not familiar with the g7. (I own a G5+). I believe the G7 code name is "river". You can look at https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/river/ and they show a blank flash - but let me say something - a blank flash must be exact for your phone. Its basically the main disk partition with other partitions inside. My phone has 64GB/4GB, and 32GB/3GB-2GB models - so you see a problem. But if all the G7s are the same, then this blank flash should be OK.
Also you can download the phones original firmware at https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/river/official/RETUS/ , if its a US model. If its not, back up 1 directory and you can find it by either carrier or country. You can fastboot the firmware - which I would do before a blankflash,
Hope that helps.
I'm might be in wrong place but im Looking for any info on g8 power lite variant of g8 power. UK unlocked regards retail. Looking like It is a oddball as I cannot find anything. I don't think there will be much support but if anybody knows if this similar enough to any other variant ?? Android pie out the box no update. Not even Moto app to enable one button navbar. Any help thanks
Hello
I just got the LATAM version of that same phone, and i can tell you that it's gonna take some time to get information, but it will appear in some time.
Indeed, this is the right place, but it seems to be that similar models have variants around the globe, and the Moto G8 Power Lite it's not a priority right now.
I'm waiting the same for my version (XT2055-2), but it's just a matter of patience.
Keep looking on the forum and eventually it will appear some information

Yea I thought as much, motorola seems to be putting out lots of versions of every device. This is by far the worst device I have had in recent memory, seems be missing quite a bit of the usual options available on other recent moto devices. I would have a go at bits myself but it also seems my version of this device has a Chinese bootloader installed, I don't think I will still have this device by the time any work is done I need to change phones quite often for work. Good luck.

The chinese bootloader is something common on Motorola, even i have the same thing. But i guess they gonna come up with something. As per today, the Brazil version of this smartphone started getting Android 10 (with some bugs tho) so i guess Motorola gonna start moving things in the coming weeks

Go to Settings > About Phone > Model & hardware
and it will show you the Model, Serial number and Model(SKU) of the device. Ithing what you are after is the SKU.
Tip: Under the title "Model & Hardware" you should see "Model: moto g8 power lite" in a gray(er) font.
{This may vary between models and versions}
Hope this helps.

It's not possible to unlock the bootloader on the G8 power lite, only the G8/G8 power.
It cannot be done using fastboot but it is certainly possible using the Realtek VCOM USB protocol
Rooting Moto G8 Power Lite
Does anyone know where I can find a decent guide to rooting the G8 Power Lite (if one exists - I know it's only been out a few months)? I've had a Google around and looked on this forum and on reddit but I can't find anything. I haven't done...
forum.xda-developers.com
This video sums it up well
Essentially you need to:
1. download MTKCLIENT from github, works best on Linux IMHO but Windows works too - on Windows you need additional USB drivers and MTK Drivers, which i attached. Use PIP to install the requirements by going into the MTKCLIENT directory and typing into CMD/Terminal: python3 pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Copy the G8 power Lite specific script to the root folder of the MTKCLIENT
3. Open up the phone, remove the plastic covering the cameras and motherboard. Unplug the battery. Short these two pins either by soldering them together or just using something metal - this is only necessary during the flash and then should be removed.
View attachment 5889467
4. Plug in usb cable to the phone but dont connect it to the pc yet. Start the program either by CD-ing to the MTKCLIENT directory and running it via CLI (on Linux: python3 mtk w proinfo,seccfg proinfo.bin,seccfg.bin, If it wont unlock using the custom G8 script, just run this generic command: python mtk da seccfg unlock) or doubleclicking the desbloq_bootloader.bat on Windows. Then short the two pins, keep them shorted and connect the USB cable to the PC. You should see a bunch of code scroling, it will automatically close/end.
5. Unplug USB, remove short circuit from two pins, plug in battery, turn on phone, you should see lines of text during the boot like this:
View attachment 5889471
Bootloader unlocked. Now the only use is ROOT, no custom ROMs or Recoveries available as its vastly different from normal G8 power, which has a Snapdragon CPU and totally different screen. You'll also get a big "CARRIER INVALID" message on the home screen, so after you ROOT make sure to relock the bootloader using the same method but the command is python3 mtk da seccfg lock
I'm almost sure that what I got it's a - Moto g8 Power lite - XT2055-1
So I got the phone long ago and it's been mostly at home and used as a backup by some of my friends.. I can't even remember which person had it last time.
Thing is that I completely forgot about the Motorola protection and after factory reset it keeps on asking for the last used google account which I got no clue which one would be. To make things worst I have no way to find out the IMEI's so that I can use Motorola RSA.
It looks like to me that I can't enter BootRom mode and I can only access preloader mode even tho, I got access to recovery mode and meta mode. I have tried all the key combos I can imagine by now.
I have also tried sp flash tools but I'm getting an error when the process is starting.
I'll drop some more details soon.. thank you.

I did before as far as I recall but I gave up on it I think 'cus I ran into some issues as well.. I'm a bit rusty when it comes to this kind of stuff.. now that I'm reading all again about the tools etc I'm gonna give mtkclient a go and keep you all posted. Thank you again.
First off some questions please.. and I'm running win 11 pro.
What am I suppose to see on the screen when on Brom mode ? or how do I know that I'm on that mode.. obviously that if I'm not the operations just fail.
cant run mtk_gui atm for some reason trying to clear that out.. 'C:\Users\Q\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Lib\site-packages\shiboken6\libshiboken does not exist'
Also tried bypass_utility_v1.4.2 using dif. key combos always returns 'device in preloader mode, trying to crash..'
mtkclient handshake returns failed 'Preloader - [LIB]: status: handshake failed, retrying..'
I'll keep on trying to understand all this just need my time.. all help appreciated.

for brom/preloader mode you will need to use the shorting method shown in the previously mentioned youtube video, not sure why you're trying mtk_gui and bypass_utility_v1.4.2 , what are you trying to achieve by using them?
Well reading from github where you get the mtkclient I thought that I could unlock the bootloader using the bypass_utility_v1.4.2 just like that.. guess ain't that easy and tbh after reading your previous words also thought that I could try using the mtkclient regardless being via the gui or the terminal.
I have seen some posts about the Brasilian fella and more shorting method but thought that by now wouldn't be needed anymore.. I did have my phone open before 'cause of that.. guess I'll have to have a look again.. my bad.
Thanks again.

you might be able to get into brom/preloader mode by holding volume down button while it is booting but shorting also brings the same result

care to share what you did so we can know?
I do care.. I also care the way some people talk to others behind screens.
Now if you read what I have just said on my previous post and the first post so to get what you/I'm dealing with you will realize that I was stuck on welcome screen, after soft reset, 'cus of FRP, once the last google account used was still active and I had no clue. Just use the search string on youtube that I have mentioned and on the first vid follow the 20k steps to be able to bypass google/android FRP.

Would someone please point me out their fav XT2055-1 roms ?
Thank you.
Requesting someone's backup of emmc so I can unbrick my XT2117-4 Retail(Retus) Moto G power 2021. Stuck in Qusb-HS Dloader 9008 mode after setting active slot to b with nothing on slot b in fastboot. If I could atleast somehow swap back to slot_a I feel like that would work but I don't think that's really a possibility in edl. Mainly the GPT also would be helpful. Motorola/borneo_retail/borneo:10/QZBS30.Q4-43-35-2/f8e93:user/test-keys is the build I was on at the time. My phone is hard bricked not soft bricked. There is no fastboot mode only edl mode with Qcom HS-USB 9008. I believe It got bricked by me switching to slot_b in fastboot mode with nothing on slot_b not even bootloader. Also my bootloader is unlocked and it was rooted with magisk at the Time of hard brick. I believe fastboot set_active_slot b was the command that bricked it or what ever the correct usage of the set active command was if that's not exactly it. I just need the emmc_prog_firehose for SM_KAMORTA_H or SDM662 or SM6115. Whatever the proper name out of those it would be I guess for this phones type.
Can't use LSMA since it's hard bricked it doesn't even recognize anything is plugged in. I need a blankflash file to use with qboot or the emmc_programmer and then use QFIL or QPST possibly. I use Linux and Windows both if that helps at all somehow.
More info from a reply of mine.
REPLY:
"No it specifically warned that there was nothing on b and it was dangerous but I wasn't paying much attention to it because I was watching family guy so I told it to go ahead and switch. Insta brick after that decision. It does warn you though or it did with me on my phone. Whenever you've done it your slot probably wasn't really "empty" in the sense it didn't have a bootloader on it. You can't boot up a phone that's on a slot without even a bootloader on it otherwise you'll literally have nothing to load your boot image in the first place which means no recovery or fastboot either for A/B devices hence you then have a hard bricked phone in emergency download mode afterwards that either needs reprogrammed or deep flashed (If there's really a difference I don't know). I think you still need a firehose_emmc_programmer or Blank-flash file which has a programmer in it to do that though which is what I need. Some phones might have different emergency protocols for that situation or maybe it's been updated since to where it prevents A/B phones from getting stuck in limbo on an empty slot but the XT2117-4 Moto G Power 2021 doesn't it just warns or atleast when I bricked mine. It's nice to have the option for developer and testing purposes probably or just as a way to get into EDL Mode. I just wasn't paying as much attention as I should have been while tweaking my phone. I'm not a developer or expert though so someone correct me if I'm mistaken somewhere but I have atleast an alright understanding of what's going on I hope from my experience with rooting/rooted phones. A/B partitioning is still kind of a weird newer thing to me since I haven't done much after bricking my G Power and I was used to System As Root before that."

Requesting someone's backup of emmc so I can unbrick my XT2117-4 Retail(Retus) Moto G power 2021. Stuck in Qusb-HS Dloader 9008 mode after setting active slot to b with nothing on slot b in fastboot. If I could atleast somehow swap back to slot_a I feel like that would work but I don't think that's really a possibility in edl. Mainly the GPT also would be helpful. Motorola/borneo_retail/borneo:10/QZBS30.Q4-43-35-2/f8e93:user/test-keys is the build I was on at the time.

Yes every time it says fastboot flash single partition failed
Hello guys. I have this device and I'll help you. Mine's not rooted yet which is why I came to ask a question and accidentally clicked this thread. Tell me what I need to do to get what you need and I'll do it. i don't know how to use a mouse in TWRP and it sounds like that's what you need. I have a wireless mouse with a usb dongle but no type-c otg at the moment. I just found out from another post in here about using twrp from a terminal. I need to learn more about that too. Dude made a kernel backup with an adb twrp command. I asked him about it but have gotten no response.I also only run linux, but may install a windows 11 virtual machine to use LMSA since every lolinet kernel I've rooted so far results in no touch response.
Have you guys tried fastboot flashing the entire lolinet firmware? I just made a tutorial on it. I've never had a problem that wouldn't fix and I have quite a bit of experience....

I'd bet that would fix it. It re-writes all partitions.

Ok. I have a question as I've never used a mouse with my phone before. Are you guys using a mouse through OTG to use im TWRP? To help you any time soon I'll have to find info for using TWRP with ADB commands as I don't think I have the hardware to use my mouse.
Edit: I found information faster than I thought I would. I looked it up in the past and could find nothing but it's a new feature.

Okay, that would require me to factory reset because I won't send a backup of my logged in system. I would do that if I thought it would help, but it won't. I don't thiink amyone has beennable to restore a stock nandroid on these auto-encrypting motos. If I''m wrong, and I may be, show me. I've tried many times and many ways. I have been able to restore custom backups, but never stock.

I I'm not really sure I can't get any files to flash on it I can get TWRP to load I can't get the Motorola restore program to flash anything so I'm literally just stuck in fast food with a locked bootloader and non-rooted and no developer options turned on any help would be appreciated

I feel your pain. You have tried the obvious
fastboot set_active a
of course? I'm not trying to be a smartass. You just may have switched slots with twrp and don't know the fastboot command.

Ok. How was it that you switched slots and got stuck? I want to experiment but I don't want to make the same mistake.
Also, if your bootloader is locked, aren't you still under warranty? Can you make a warranty claim?
If not, you may be able to unlock it in your current state which might make fixing it easier. You could try
fastboot oem get_unlock_data
and if it returns some lines of code you can likely unlock it now.
With a locked bootloader you are very limited and my twrp backup of a RETUS would have had no chance at all of helping you unless you happen to have a factory unlocked US variant.
I had it rooted and the bootloader unlocked...then i tried to follow a flash back to stock and re lock boot loader guide....but now when it boots it says no valid os or i can go into fastboot and thats about it....

Have you tried to unlock it again with the same code? I have never even tried to relock a bootloader. I may have nightmares. If you still have the unlock email I would try that.

I have tried that also and developer options are not on so i cant
So sorry. If i think of anything else I'll let you know. I think relocking your bootloader with an altered kernel was a bad idea, but I think relocking your bootloader is a bad idea anytime.
My phone is hard bricked not soft bricked. There is no fastboot mode only edl mode with Qcom HS-USB 9008. honestly a mmcblk0 backup would definitely help if anyone would want to backup and then pm me a link or something. I believe It got bricked by me switching to slot_b in fastboot mode with nothing on slot_b not even bootloader. Also my bootloader is unlocked and it was rooted with magisk at the Time of hard brick
