In this guide, we will show you how to unbrick your Moto Edge 40 Pro using Fastboot commands. Customization has been a significant focus for Motorola devices for quite some time. This applies to the newest addition to the Edge series as well. The sole prerequisite of an unlocked bootloader enables you to flash a variety of GSI ROMs, root the device with Magisk, and install a wide range of modules after installing an unlocked bootloader.
It is important to remember that this is only one side of the coin. In addition to these risks, carrying out these modifications entails some uninvited consequences. There is always a risk of things going south, or, in other words, your device being in a boot loop or soft brick. Even if that happens, you could easily unbrick your Moto Edge 40 Pro via Fastboot Commands. Here’s how you can do it. Let’s get started.
How to Unbrick Moto Edge 40 Pro via Fastboot Commands
To make it easier to understand, we have divided the instructions below into separate sections. Follow the same sequence as mentioned.

1: Install Android SDK
Your first step should be to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. There is only one official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google, and it is the only one that is recommended. To use it, download the file and extract it to a convenient location on your computer. You will then have access to the platform-tools folder, which you will use throughout the guide.

3: Boot Moto Edge 40 Pro to Fastboot Mode
Most soft-bricked or boot-looped devices are already in Fastboot Mode when they are soft-bricked or boot-looped. In case you get stuck in a boot loop, press and hold the Power button for several seconds. Press and hold the Power and Volume Down keys (or the Power and Volume Up keys) together to boot into Fastboot mode.
Nevertheless, if you cannot power off the device, allow its battery to drain. Once that has happened, connect the charger to the device. Use the Power and Volume Up/Down keys when it is about to boot up and it will immediately boot to Fastboot Mode.
