I bought it yesterday. Was listening to a podcast in Doggcatcher when all of a sudden the device rebooted.. and now it's stuck in a bootloop. If I do a factory reset, it boots up then notifies me that Android Core (acore) has stopped working.
What the heck? Do I just need to take this back to AT&T since we don't have an unlocked bootloader yet?

Should be back to AT&T already.
That's what I figured.. ugh. If we had an unlocked bootloader, I could've fixed this thing myself. Don't know what the heck happened with it, but it's annoying.

I rooted my TB the other day and everything went well. I've been using it with no problems until now. I wake up this morning and it's stuck on the bootloader or fastboot screen and no option that I choose allows my phone to boot up normally. Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Similar Issue
I've had the same thing happen with mine, except after multiple boot loader reboots I can eventually get the phone to boot. Eventually it will display the message "Shutting Down" The longest it's worked before rebooting is 30 minutes, but I've not allowed the VZ update to go through. Any suggestions? Thinking of trying to flash a rom.
My device has been bricked for 3 month then just a few days ago someone here on xda posted a fix and it worked for me I was really happy.
Flashed custom recovery, then tried all new roms (missed 3 month).
Then yesterday I decided to sell it to my friend and wanted to revert all back to stock. Got US_10_6_1_15_3 from asus webpage. Flashed blob all went well.
All booted up fine, and just to be sure all is 100% clean i went to do a factory reset within the rom, it did its thing then rebooted.
Now its dead, Asus logo appears for 2 sec then reboot, same thing over and over. I cant even shut it down. Apx mode is available I think.
Hopefully this doesn't happen to anyone else Can anyone give me some tips?

can you boot to fastboot?
Nope, this time its dead for good i think. Just a warning to all then.
Was on V10.6.1.27.1 bootloader running makelegs nightly builds. Then I flashed back to V10.6.1.15.3.
Then when booted up, went into settings and choose factory reset.
Baang bootloop.
Can only get Apx and thats usless since I don't have Nvflash.
I'm kinda sad, I just recovered it from the brick we all had back in may-apr. The new bootloader wrong recovery crap.
Then 2 days later This happens.
I think wiping from the settings is like wiping from the bootloader but what about trying this mate http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44574476&postcount=9

My Nexus 5 seems to get stuck at the update screen (the standing green android with the spinning polyhedron) after flashing to stock(+unroot) with softbrick/bootloop checked. The flash completed without error. I've left it at this screen for over an hour and not only does it not progress it doesn't even get to the progress bar at the bottom.
This afternoon my (unrooted, bootlocked, stock) N5 turned itself off 3 times while on the charger. Powered back on and then would find it turned off 20 or so minutes later when I checked it again. After the third time it booted to the "Google" screen and would go no further. I tried a hard reset but it gave an error. So I plugged it into my laptop and fired up Wug's NRT, unlocked the bootloader (at which point it got stuck at the same update screen described above for around an hour). I held power till it went off, booted back into bootloader (which showed as unlocked) and performed the flash to stock(+unroot) with softbrick/bootloop checked and ended up at the update animation again. Any thoughts other than RMA?
****Edit: Finally got the phone to boot after fastboot booting twrp. Was able to to wipe the phone (after multiple attemps blocked by can not mount storage/cache/etc/etc errors). Flashed 4.4 and the phone now boots to android BUT radio is non-functional (no signal despite being in my normal coverage area), any attempt to add an APN causes a hard reboot (had to go through all the setup screens again). Additionally, the phone won't turn off, even hard power downs (holding the button for 30 secs) lead to an immediate reboot. Still RMAing but I was able to relock the bootloader.
You really shouldn't RMA a phone after messing it up yourself by using a toolkit when you didn't know what you were doing.
Flash the factory images manually. That should get your phone up and running again.

Performed a manual flash with the exact same results. There is apparently something wrong with the hardware (which may explain why it was turning itself off and then wouldn't boot past the google logo.

Yep, I would agree.
Hello!
My nexus 5 got some seriously weird problem yesterday.
1. it turned itself of
2. It rebooted and rebooted and reboot. So okey, just a regular boot loop. But the reboot was inconstant and never followed a pattern.
3. I tried to go to bootloader: It worked and it stayed at boot loader for about 1 second and i rebooted.
4. I hold powerbutton and shaked the phone and it finally booted.
5. I touched the powerbutton and it started rebooting and loop again.
So i was thinking that the powerbutton had been stuck but it wasn't stuck, or at least it didin't feel stuck.
I called the shop and Im going to show the phone for warranty tomorrow so I relocked and unrooted (reset) my phone and now I am not ably to recreate the problem anymore..
This is really weird because it seemed like a obvious hardware problem.
Anyone has an ide what is going on?
Cheers!
