As I am visiting my parents, my mother hands me her phone and says turn it on. I did all the normal hold down the power and volume down buttons for 15 secs all the way to 3 minutes, hoping to be greeted with the bootloader screen. I never was.
I have had the phone plugged into various wall chargers, and the phone vibrates every 1 minute i would say. The vibrating was taunting me so i unplugged it, and it still vibrated every minute or so. So i decided to try and charge it form a laptop, vibrating continues. I figured well lets see what happens when i try to boot into the bootloader while plugged into pc. I was surprised to hear that a devices was connected. On PC i entered the fastboot devices command and it is listed as connected (T070600102C). Only device connected so I know it is the moto x. I tried the reboot, and reboot bootloader command hoping to see the screen turn on, it never did. At this point I am stuck.
She said the device was not drained when it happened and was about 60% battery.
It was recently updated to android 5.1.1 a few days ago. The bootloader was never unlocked, nor were any system files tampered with or rooting.
I left the phone stock for her, and got her the dev edition to be able to fix any problems that may arise, but I do not know where to go from here.
I was going to try and flash the factory image but motorola does not have the 5.1.1 system images available for download :(
EDIT- the vibrating occurs every 40 seconds when not in the bootloader.
I'm wondering if maybe the battery has become defective and iff replacing the battery would solve this issue?
Please any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
I should also mention i purchased this device from motorola, on july 22 2014, thus being out of warrenty :(
