Possibly bricked? Only recognized on computer as Fastboot osprey S



So I was trying to flash the correct factory firmware onto my phone, using this guide. The sparsechunks all failed, but I still continued. Now my phone only halfway has the bootloader working. As I said in the title, it connects to my PC as a device but I can't use the cmd commands that the guide showed anymore. Any help to factory reset my Moto G 2015?

Possibly Hacked via text message? Maybe stagefright?



I just got a text message from a text only number. A few minutes later, I was not able to use the fingerprint scanner to unlock my phone, and my PIN number did not work. I had to use my google account to unlock the phone and set it back to fingerprint unlock. Also blocked the number from texting me. Any ideas? I assume it could be something like the stagefright thing, but what was odd, the text message was related to my work requesting a quote and was pretty specific, not general.



G2 Possibly Needs New Motherboard Or?



Hi guys..

So I bought a LG G2 used on eBay. It was for 50 bucks or so and it was cheap because it didn't have a screen but the seller stated everything else works.

So heres what I did:
Purchased new screen x 2 (twice)
Both screens didn't work
Connected phone to TV through an HDMI adapter
The phone heats up while it's booting up sometimes

I can see the phone screen on the TV but the screen doesn't light up at all except it does have a tiny bit of backlight. As I touch the screen, it goes VERY slow, takes a second or two to respond.

How do I know if it needs a new motherboard or just new parts?
If it goes very slow but it shows on the TV, does that mean the motherboard is the issue?

Thanks in advance!!

SD card possibly corrupted. How else can I check?



Trying to save some sentimental photos and videos, so formatting isn't an option.

I'm wondering what other methods I can try to mount an SD card and copy the media files. I don't have a Note right now, but the card was last used on a T889 running DittoNote3.
The card hasn't worked since the phone, and I haven't had an opportunity to test it on another T889. I don't know if it's as simple as a permissions issue from using a custom ROM, or if something worse has happened.
Whenever I put the card into a full-size SD adapter and insert it in a PC reader slot or card adapter, the PC prompts to format it.
Trying to mount it on other Android phones brings up a "file system not recognized" message.
Is there another way to mount the card and retrieve the files? Anyone else with this?
Thanks, all!

Possibly Soft-Bricked Moto X with flashing recovery screen



Hopefully you guys can help me with my problem. Recently, I downloaded the new Marshmallow app drawer from Android Pit's "Here's how to get Android Marshmallow's new app drawer on Lollipop". It was successfully installed and seemed to be working fine. However, Google Now gave me a message saying that it was not connected to the microphone and that I should reboot my device. Thinking that the actual reboot key combo was power and volume down, I did this and this brought me to the fastboot page. I selected and entered the power up normally option on the top, which the booted my phone to a completely black screen, from which only the "power off" option would show if I held the power button down. I was confused and concluded that the app drawer somehow soft bricked my phone. After reading up on the web, I went into recovery in the fastboot screen, then selected clear cache. Two lines of orange text appeared at the bottom saying that the cache clear was starting and that it was finishing. I hit the power button, tried to boot my phone up, then, recieving another black screen, brought back up the fastboot menu and tried to enter the recovery screen again so that I could factory reset my device. The recovery screen gave me messages about how it could not load the cache, and since then has been flashing on a set interval on my screen (going black, showing the broken Android with "no command" then going black again).

Any ideas on what I can do to fix this problem?

note: (I have not rooted my phone)
