Bricked device

[Leader0fr4tz]

Hi guys
I am new to posting here but an avid viewer, now recently I had a problem with my device where the battery died and the device no longer boots and I cannot flash a new rom or recovery, the same as these two posts:

Now unfortunately unlike those two I am unable to send my device to Motorola for repairs as it was bought in another country, now I have tried all the options available to me, even all those mentioned in the two posts, including Wipe /data /system /cache in twrp & fastboot, but /data remains unchanged. I was running Blisspop V3.2 before the issue and no matter what I do or how I flash it keeps showing the blisspop boot logo & gets stuck there.

After a few attempts i switched to adb, and in adb I realised that the /data partition is set to "read only"

And as you can see chmod cannot change the permissions for the /data partition.

Now my question is this does anyone out there have any clue as how reset the data partitions read-write permissions without using chmod ?

FYI this device is a paper weight at the moment and I would like to see if I can do anything about that and maybe learn something on the way.

adb root; adb remount

Does your phone get recognized by your pc?
Mine went black a few days ago and i cant do anything.

adb root; adb remount

Hi LuK1337

Firstly thanks for the help.
adb root returns a message saying adb already has root access.
asb remount only remounts the /system partition (unless im using it incorrectly).

So far I have well and truly wiped every partition of this device excluding the /data partition which returns a message saying partition is read-only

So I have now officially proved that this is a hardware issue at least for me, look here for my findings:

Short version I've used every available software method including 'Fastboot Erase all' which has no effect.

So would anyone be able to help build a usb jig or finding a hardware way to fix this ? my device has been opened so I would be able to provide high res pictures of the motherboard to anyone who needs it, will also upload when my 10 post count has been reached

Solved: Dead battery stuck in fastboot mode unable to flash any image. Works for all.

Same thing happened to me.
Nothing to do with the hardware.

Steps to Follow:
1) Open fastboot mode in your phone.
2)Connect to your pc and open cmd in platform-tools folder.
3)Place the twrp.img file in platform tools.
4)In cmd, type : fastboot boot twrp.img (Very Important Command)
Now your phone will boot to recovery mode i.e. TWRP and the connect it to charger. It will charge slowly.
Now you can flash anything using ADB Sideload.
