Soft Brick without volumen button

[kathsfernan]

Let me explain firstly... I was in 5.1 and flashed a bad zip with TWRP, and i get a failed message in the screen... I thought nothing wrong would happened and restart phone... The point is i got infinite bootloop (phone stuck in first animation, vibration and then restart, and all again till the phone exhauste the battery)...

The situation is my volume button is broken and cant enter to fastboot mode. When i plug the phone in my computer, is recognize for few seconds till gets restart again. The question, is there any option to get in fastboot mode using linux or something like that? It would be great. :crying:

Had this same issue this weekend. Had a xt1060 dev ed with down volume broke. You need to replace the buttons on the frame (seen on eBay for 5$-13$). I ended up throwing the main board into another phone I had laying around rather than replace the buttons alone. EBay is your friend. I tried shorting pins on the connection where the button
ribbon cable plugs into, but without an actual pin out, I only managed to get the power button to work.

like i said, there is but it involves replacing the ribbon cable underneath the buttons, that is glued to the metal frame. it will cost between 5-15$ to buy the parts, and its pretty simple.

Right ... once ill fix the ribbon cable do i need a factory cable to charge up the battery ? cuz once i plug the telephone to outlet it begins to restart.... or should i connect to pc and enter fastboot and proceed to flash the firmware without charge
