Nexus 5 Flashing Issue. And help/tip? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems I can not flash the Miui beta with the RIL working for the Nexus 5 through twrp recovery. Is there a way to fix this?
Also. I currently have PA's latest build. How do I change the trigger area for PIE? I see in screenshots they are on the side. How can I do this? I hate swiping from the bottom since I'm used to doing that to launch Google.
Thanks in advance.

I got an error the first time I tried to flash the MIUI port in TWRP. Try rebooting the recovery after the error and flashing again. That worked for me.
As for PIE in PA, I don't know as I haven't used it.

Why about adding the error message? You may need to upgrade your bootloader.

I flashed the June 28 kernel & it bricked my N7. I'm unable to get back into recovery mode to flash a backup. Any advise?

Plug your Nexus 7 into a computer and then press the power and both volume buttons at the same time. Then you can boot into recovery.

I tried that. I can get into fastboot no problem. I'm running pre released windows 8. Could that be the problem as to why I can't get into recovery?

It's not a problem of the op kernel or win8 but know issue that some Nexus 7 unmount recovery. There's a specific thread for solve this....but in my case don't work
Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus con Tapatalk 2
I also had an issue with the 28 June kernal. Wouldn't go past boot screen or load into recovery. Could still access fastboot though.
/remember that nandroids are your friends
I was able to boot into recovery using the N7 toolkit. The problem then was I had to use the toolkit to force it to boot into android. I tried flashing Trinity's and Franco's kernel but it would not flash via TWRP or CWM.
Ended up having to flash the stock image to get my tablet working right. As per another post having a similar issue I would stay away from the June 28 kernel.
The older kernel also put my Nexus in a bootloop
Ah well better reflash
So does any of these kernels work or only put the n7 in boot loop? BTW what's the difference between the two?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
ones newer than the other, by the looks of it both bootloop the device :/
really regretting not backing up before doing it
edit: I reflashed the boot.img (extracted it from my ROM) and all is good now. Gonna do a titanium backup just to make sure incase it's unstable
Wow I really wish I had read this thread before flashing. Just bricked my device

Are you wiping data when you flash the rom?
If you don't have any important stuff on your phone, I would just flash the factory images and start over with the rom process.

Well since he's flashing a rom, it would be rooted and the bootloader unlocked.

It never hurts to ask though. Maybe he did something different and bypassed something. You never know. You got to have the whole story. :sly:

When you flash the ROM it also flashes the kernel that comes with it.
So if you are using Mahdi ROM then everything is ok but if you try a different ROM you get the error constantly?
using the ClockworkMod recovery.
If you receive issues on flashing, double check your download. If nothing, I suggest using the ClockworkMod recovery.

The type of recovery you use will have no bearing on it, hundreds of people on here use twrp and cwm.
All I can suggest and it was suggested before is to wipe your phone completely and start over again. Something went wrong, clearly.

Issue with update to latest version of kit kat

Hi,
I am having trouble updating my Nexus 5 to the latest version. I get the notification to update and it begins to run however, after about 20% it errors and all I can see is the little android error icon. Has anyone else encountered this?
Have you made any changes to the ROM prior to trying to update?

No It is running the stock version with no dodgy apps installed at all.
Strange. Maybe the update file is corrupted.

Has anyone got an answer or is there an issue with the device and I need to replace it? it's currently running 4.4 and is trying to install 4.4.2... Could it be an issue with it trying to bypass the 4.4.1 update? I have even done a factory re set and it still errors when trying to install the update.
You could just download the 4.4.2 factory image and manually flash it (leaving out the userdata.img so you don't reset everything) you'll be fine

This has been resolved in CyanogenMod 11.

It is available. Nightlies are being built every day. I believe the fix has also been rolled into the CM 10.2 codebase, and will hit in the next stable release. Though @Nardholio will have to confirm that.
Nightlies aren't stable question has it bee introduced to 10.2 stable release from December

See my previous post. It will come in the next stable 10.2 release.

Also, CM 11 M2 is available for the Relay now. The nightlies are generally quite stable, we're actually well upon our way toward a release.

Okay then, emaayan. Go with CM-11.0 M2. It's a superiour product to CM 10.2.0 in every way anyway.

Which recovery are you using? Are you using the one linked to in the installation directions on the Wiki? If not, do so. It should work.
I'm using 6.0.2.8 but could it Because I'm already rooted?

That recovery is far too old. Use the one linked in the CyanogenMod wiki for the apexqtmo. It's also the one linked in the CM-11 preview thread here.

The recovery I posted is the only recovery image that TeamApexQ supports. I also posted a recovery zip later in the thread that I can assure you works as well. Any other recoveries that you can get to work, excellent, but we are not supporting it. The OP will not be changed. As for the question of BTC, as I already stated, we've fixed it in CM-11. We found new firmware that works with it and the Relay.

Lollipop 5.0.1 home screen bug - Ram consumption

Hi everyone,
I have a Nexus 5 working under lollipop 5.0.1 ( not rooted )and, just like the 5.0.0, my phone bug a little bit after working a lot on the phone.
The Ram turns to + 70% of consummption and the phone bugs whenever I try to get to the home screen until I restart the phone ( almost everyday )
I use Cleaner to clean my phone.
I thought about going a full reset to the phone and try if this problem will be fixed ( I'll need ur suggestions for the best app backup )
If it doesn't work, I'll try to root my phone ( my last option )
So what you think guys ??!
PS : I can upload a video showing the issue I have if necessary.
Thanks.
Is this a joke? Your talking about the most famous Android 5.0 bug

I thought the 5.0.1 fixed the bug ..
Anyone ?
Try one of the AOSP 5.0.2 ROMs which has the fix. Optipop is pretty good. Cataclysm is good but it doesn't have the fixes in AOSP last I checked.

Is your bootloader unlocked? If it is flash twrp with fastboot. Then flash the rom of your choice and see if it fixes your bug

Alternatively you can also reboot your phone as a temporary fix.
