Hi. Start off by connecting the Moto G (assuming is the 3rd Gen) to a PC through its USB cable and short press the power key and see if the PC picks it up as a USB device. If it does, then it may require a firmware reload (this can be a DIY kind of a task). But prior to a firmware reload attempts, try the below steps (provided the phone can be picked up by a PC).

Reset will require a minimum battery level of 25%. If you are unable to perform a reset, please charge for 20-30 minutes and try reset again (even if you get no charging animation).

  1. With the phone powered off, press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power button at the same time until the device turns on.
  2. Press the Volume Down button to highlight "Recovery mode"
  3. Press the Power button to restart into Recovery mode.
    You'll see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation mark.
  4. While holding down the Power button, press the Volume Up button.
  5. Use the volume buttons to scroll to "wipe data/factory reset" and press the Power button to select it.
  6. Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data" and press the Power button to select it.
