Hey guys so my phone turned off this week and has been stuck in a bootloop for a while now. I haven't rooted the phone or unlocked oem. Also, USB debugging and allow oem unlock is turned off. Only fastboot detects my phone and I cant flash anything because oem is locked and oem unlock doesnt work because it says allow oem unlock in phone. Cannot do anything with adb. So I decided to apply update from sd card but it says cannot find E:/data/media/0 . I tried formatting sd card to fat32 in windows 10 . It still doesnt work. Is my phone dead forever?

If your phone is recognized by fastboot then you can flash the stock nougat rom for your device https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 it can be flashed even with locked bootloader since it is a signed package.

But did you tried clearing cache in recovery first?
Which device type(XT1643 for example) and stock rom version did you have(6.0.1 marshmallow or 7.0 nougat)?
