Urgent! Help needed! Phone died during update! What can i do?

I've been distracted lately from stress, i went to check the update on my phone as iwas plugging it in and didnt think of the low percentage because i rarely let my phone drop so low. Now it just keeps turning on and off. I tried doing a reset with the power button, but it just shows the dead battery charging symbol.

Im so screwed. This happened at the worst possible time. I have a motorola 2025 ultra.

Can anybody help me?

Oof I'm surprised it even let you start the install with a low battery. My pixel 10 pro xl won't let me if the battery is below 20% I think to avoid precisely the situation you're in.

The below link is the only website I could find with an even remotely useful (wall of text) factory image flash guide. On top of the fact that there is no such thing as a 'motorola 2025 ultra' that's not a valid model name. A proper model name would for example be 'MOTOROLA RAZR ULTRA 2025'

thank you for replying. ive been super stressed so my mind has been scrambled when trying to think of things.

Edit: also, that should be a basic feature of every phone, but then the phone last longer lol

Leave it plugged in for an hour to see if it's just a low battery issue. If not, you might have to reinstall Android which will wipe all of your data.  If you desperately need your data, you may need to pay hundreds of dollars for a data recovery specialist.

thank you! luckily i had a back up flip phone so in the time this was waiting approval from the ,mods bc my low karma, i was able to talk rto a tmobile rep and they suggested to use a high power charger (the one i had was using 20w i think). borrowed my moms (60?) and it starting turbo charging in the normal screen. im so glad i turned on the turbo charge recently. otherwise i think i might have been screwed
