I recently successfully rooted my Nexus 5 and decided to try out a new ROM like CyanogenMod 11 after getting bored with sock. But now its stuck on the CM11 boot screen and I can't connect my N5's storage via TWRP to my computer. My goal is to re-transfer files to try this ROM. And to spice things up a bit more, I don't have a back up. How can I get my N5 to install CM11?
I did have a setup for adb but even that gets stuck on TWRP when enabled. Please HELP!
Im using windows 8.1, and bought my 16GB N5 from the play store if that helps.

Adb sideload the files you want to flash.

Try using cwm to flash cm11 or the latest, 2.6.3.4, twrp. But I'd try cwm
How long did you let it sit at the CM boot screen? Sometimes it takes a while.
How exactly did you flash and what ROM did you try?

So i wiped my internal sd card when i was trying to get rid of multirom and switch to the rom i wanted. we the phone is wiped i still have my TWRP recovery but i cannot get the phone to connect to my mac at all and i tryed using my buddies win7 which we rooted and unlocked his nexus 4 on with adb. im lost on how to get a new rom on there to install any help would be terrific.
You're going to have to get one of the pc's to recognize your device to adb sideload or push a Rom on to your phone Google tool adb fastboot drivers xda. Try that on the win machine.
Also, make sure your using usb 2.0 ports, not 3.0 and user the cable that came with the phone

How did you manage to wipe the internal SD trying to get multiROM to work? Did you not read?
Use this on your buddies pc or equivalent windows 7 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

This is how you sideload: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/2013/12/ow-to-use-adb-sideload.html
No I read it and was half passed out when I wiped data in twrp and accidently hit the wrong button. I've been up with my son all night and been trying to just have dirty unicorn ROM instead of both stock 4.4.2 and du. Thank you for the reply

Alright I got it, thank you for the help. I ended up installing a dual boot on my hackintosh with win7 and went through all that, but if I had already had that it would have taken lest time. Once I had all the working drivers and downloads it only took about 15-30 min max before I had my device back and running DU by itself without multirom. Thanks again for the help!!!!

Hi u all!
First of all thank you for your time and sorry for my english, I speak spanish.
I have a nexus s i9023. I was using CyanogenMod 11 experimental 24042014.
I was having many problems and decided to downgrade to the stable version 10.1.2
It downloaded ok, installed all the updates, rebooted and then got stuck in the logo screen when booting.
The problem is that my nexus s has a broken the power button, it doesn't work.
As for right now the olny thing I can do is to enter the bootloader screen, but cant move throgh the options with the volume keys, it's like its stuck.
If I plug in the device when in the bootloader (fastboot mode) screen my PC doesn't recognice it, I search in the device manager but it doesn't appear.
If it helps when I plug in the battery the phone starts on in it's on.
Please, any help is appreciated.
Im really sad because I love my nexus.
Thank you!!!
Same here. Any help for us would be great. Thanks.

Seems like a driver issue. Can you try installing the drivers in a different system?
If it goes well, then use install cwm touch recovery from fastboot. You can take backup and flash new ROMs after that.
Try Nexus Root Toolkit to install drivers if you don't have access to a different system.

Don't I need to have android debugging enabled? If so, I don't think Nexus Root Toolkit will work. I flashed a ROM to my NS4g & I get boot loops. I flashed the wrong Gapps a few months ago.
I was hoping there would be a way to automatically turn android debugging on. I know it may sound dumb & also probably impossible.
Any other tips.
Tell me I'm screwed. Haha.

I disabled USB debugging. Rebooted to bootloader. Fired up 'fastboot devices' on cmd and could see my phone. This tells me that I do not need USB debugging on fastboot.
If you see an unknown device in Device Manager while in fastboot then use Universal Naked Driver to install the drivers. But since you don't, you'll need another PC to do this stuff. Once drivers are installed, you can do a 'fastboot reboot recovery' to get into recovery and fix the the problems. The first thing I advice is to flash a touch recovery. The rest is up to you.
Flash back the original soju firmware back onto your device by first using "nexus s root toolkit v.1.8.2 by wugfresh". It may take a little of your time downloading the roms and installing the drivers but trust me it should be working and your phone will boot into stock android 4.1.2. You can then root your device and install custom recovery as normal. Anything do pm me :laugh: ps, click the bricked option one the software is loaded up and remember to connect your device only and remove other phones from your computer
Hello everyone,
I am a newbie and this was my first root/flash so please bare with me. I recently installed Gnabo rom on my note 10.1 gt-n8013 by flashing the cwm recovery and then installing the zip files from a guide i found online.
After I tried it out, it turned out to be a little buggy, and so I want to switch back to stock. However, my tablet is not being recognized on my computer. I've tried different computers and have bought a new USB with no luck. I have cleared all cache in recovery, cleared everything, uninstalled everything and it is still not working. I have enable USB debugging every time, and have tried without it. I do have the correct drivers installed on the computers. Please help if you can. I will try to flash the stock version if I can find a link to one with mobile odin (so far I have been unable to find a download of the stock firmware that the note came with).
UPDATE:
So I downloaded a stock firmware, turned out it was for note 2 (I think someone posted wrong link) and I flashed it with mobile odin. So now, It shows note 2 at startup and then a black screen. That's it. I am able to go into download mode but that won't do much since I am still unable to get the tablet connected to my pc. Any help would be appreciated!
Hi guys hopefully I posted this in the right place. I have a rooted Nexus 5 with multirom installed and had a few ROMs in mind that I wanted to try out, most of them just installed simply and booted without problems however when I chose to try and install slimrom or another (can't remember the name of the other ROM sorry) a message would appear stating I need to install a different bootloader IMG to install/ boot that ROM. I searched around for a while and found an image to install through twrp but when I installed it I now can't boot the phone to launch a ROM or get into recovery mode as the screen will go black. Any ideas? I'm trying to used adb to install a twrp img but so far it doesn't detect the device :/ I would much appreciate any help or suggestions! Ask me if you have any questions! Thanks.
Have tried to flashing back to a completely stock rom?
Problem is I can't get my computer to recognize my nexus 5 in the boot loader mode if I could I could then flash twrp again and flash the stock rom but it doesn't detect
Does the phone boot into fastboot mode? You tried different USB ports, cables, computers, and operating systems?
The only mode I can get my Nexus into is boot loader mode so yes fast boot. I have a windows xp and 8 so I use 8 as its the only PC that I can run adb & fast boot on without problems. I have used a USB cord the recognized my sisters phone also so it shouldn't be a faulty cable I'm pretty sure. Thanks for those ideas I appreciate your help a lot!

Speaking from personal experience, I found that the USB cable could make a difference. I also have Samsung phones and, although the USB cable allowed win7 to install drivers, I could never flash anything. Once I switched back to the original cable, flashing works without any problems.
tahnks guys i managed to fix my problem using the nexus in bootloader mode on Windows 7 as windows 8 and xp wouldn't recognize it for some reason. From there i managed to install twrp reset the device, flash theserurection remix rom and flash a correct bootloader. Thanks for your help as it lead me in the right direction!
I did something very stupid: I installed a custom ROM on my Razer phone 2 and got stuck in a bootloop. However, when I turned it off to save the work for tomorrow, TWRP would not start. I am now using a different computer than the one I worked on at the time, so Fastboot Devices is not recognized. I'm done.
Please help. Thank you very much.
