Nexus 5 stuck on boot up screen - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Nexus 5 that is on Cyanogenmod11, and I tried to autoflash franco kernel to make my battery last longer. I just found out that cm11 is not compatible with franco kernal, and my Nexus 5 is stuck on a screen with the Google logo, and a unlocked little icon at the bottom. I can get into bootloader, and then get into CWM mode. Help, I just want to get back into c11. I don't need my data backed up or anything, I don't want to try flashing granco kernel again or something. HELP. Please use baby terms because I do not understand anything. Walk me through everything in detail please, and explain some terms that I probably won't know.
Thanks

Just reflash CM11 and your GAPPS package and you should be good to go!

Thank you, I read online and it told me to do the exact same thing. I downloaded the 2 packages, and then i plugged my usb in to the computer and nexus 5, but the computer did NOT recognize my Nexus 5. Is it because it doesn't recognize my Nexus 5 because it is in bootloader mode?
Thanks

bootloader is for fastboot, not adb. but your computer should still see your phone. boot into recovery to use adb. why not keep a copy of your current rom in your storage just in case? or even a nandroid backup just in case? not pointed directly at you.. but when will people ever learn?

Go to CWM and connect ur phone to PC, then choose Mount and Storage>Mount USB Storage. Your phone will be mounted on PC. Then copy the CM11 zip and Gapps to phone SD and flash them. Flashing Gapps is not necessary though IMO.

I got my phone into bootloader, than selected recovery mode. It says ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.4.5 at the top, and a bunch of options below. I plugged in my USB, and it made the noise that indicates that it is connected, but it does not show me the internal storage of my Nexus 5. What am I doing wrong?

it wont. you need to use adb to move whatever files you want to your phone. it wont show you whats already there. for that, you can use your recovery to see whats zip files are in your storage(in twrp you can also look what other files are there, not sure of cwm recovery.

adb push them to your phone(while you are in recovery), then flash them in your recovery. dont worry about wiping anything, just flash them(dirty, without wiping, so you dont lose any data).

I have adb downloaded, and also cm11 and GAPPS downloaded too. What is next?

one post says you have adb installed, the other says you have it downloaded.. which one, lol?
if its installed, all you have to do is adb push the files to your phone. when ypu push them, be sire to write the exact name of the files when you push them.
first, make sure adb sees your device when its plugged in via usb, type.. adb devices
2nd, push your files.. adb push cyanogenmodromfilename.zip and then adb push gapps.zip

[Q] Nexus S not working...

I'm going to probably get a lot of hate for this because there are a ton of forums that might get me here. I did search for about 3 hours tonight and discovered some things but am still confused. I hope someone can help this be more simple. So a friend has a Nexus S that isn't working (I have a Nexus S by the by too). It's unlocked but no ClockWork on it. I can press volume up and power to get to fastboot mode. When I click on "reboot," the phone will just loop on the Google logo. If I click recovery, it starts to boot then shows the triangle with the exclamation mark. From there, I can press power and up or down on volume to get the blue screen which says reboot system now, apply update, wipe, wipe. You get it. I'm stuck...I can also turn off the phone, hold volume up/down and plug in the usb to get to "downloading..."
I want to get this phone working and back to stock. I have the SDK Manager (my phone isn't rooted so I use it to take screenshots) and pda net (which I still don't understand why or how to use with this) and two versions of Odin. It seems like Odin can get this working but I can't get it to work or find a clear guide on how to use it and which ones to use. This is a Tmob Nexus S, I think the i9020. Any help would be so greatly appreciated and I will give you all the credit. Oh, and i can pull up the device on ddms with the sdk manager and can explore the files but there is nothing. I can't find a way to drag a file on the phone to "apply update from /sdcard." Sorry again and thanks again!

It seems your boot.img file either corrupted or missing.
Find a working copy of file, flash it via ADB interface or fastboot. Flash recovery file CWM. If that doesnt work, Try flashing CM7 Rom or someother ROM.
Did you check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895545 ?
Odin should be your last resort, if nothing really works for you.
If you want to return to stock, simply flash the NAND backup found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884093 .

Thanks so much for the quick reply. I think I've made some headway...I can "see" the device with cmd by typing adb devices. After that though, I don't understand how to get the stock nexus s rom on the phone. How do I move that file to my phone (what's the line of code I type)? I've tried "adb install <c:\grh78> but it says the syntax isn't correct. Any more help is so greatly appreciated and I appreciate the already prompt response. Thanks!!!

Download your rom of choice (stock, custom)
Flash Cwm via fastboot if you haven't already
Boot into recovery.
Use adb push to push your zipped rom to the sdcard (adb push file.zip /sdcard/file.zip)
Use cwm to flash this zip.

Wow fast responses. I bet it's annoying to help yet another person having issues (again, phone was given to me like this but yeah...) while you guys or gals already know how to do these things very well. Here's where I'm stuck. I enter this code in cmd:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img
and it just says < waiting for device >.
Here's a pic of the screen that I'm on with my phone when i enter the command.

If I'm just in the first screen by holding volume up and power, the computer won't read the phone. So I click recovery, the screen shows it's trying to install something then the triangle exclamation mark, i press volume up/down with power and get this screen and the computer can "see" my phone on cmd.
How do I get this flipping clockwork on this phone or get the stock image on my sd card? Thanks again for helping me out guys. I have taken a look at the links you have sent me and that's where i found the download as well as the code to enter. I will keep looking at them but if you find a faster solution, please let me know.
One more thing to be super clear on...when I'm on the screen on the Nexus S that says Fastboot Mode on top in red and Lock State - Unlocked...my computer won't read the phone, therefore I cannot fastboot the recovery img...

So you already tried "fastboot devices" while in fastboot mode?
Edit: Actually it sounds you really want stock so download the complete stock OTA ROM (including boot.img etc.), rename it to update.zip and put it on the root of your sdcard. Boot into the stock recovery like you did already and hit apply update.
EDIT: Go here to download the correct OTA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056062
Find the correct 2.3.6 "Full ROM" for your phone model. Sounds like in those instructions you don't need to rename to update.zip. Haven't seen stock recovery for a while so I don't remember.
If there is a wipe option in the stock recovery then do that first.
Yes I have tried fastboot devices in fastboot mode but nothing because my computer doesn't read the phone in that mode. And yes, I want to put the stock rom on there but that's the key, I can't get access to the root of my sdcard. I can't push anything into the sdcard to flash it. Any ideas what to type or how to access the sdcard? Thanks a million, billion.
Also, I can't get the phone to boot at all, like I can't get passed the Google Logo if I reboot so I can't access the sdcard in the traditional way.

If fastboot devices returns NOTHING then this is most likely a driver issue. Remove the device through device manager, make sure you have a recent SDK (for the USB driver) and let it re-detect.

If you can get into the boot loader and get a proper USB driver you should be able to flash a recovery.
Once you've flashed Clockwork Mod (recovery) you'll be able to push to the sdcard using ADB or possibly mount the sd card through the CWM menu (although I've yet to have that work).
In order to get a recovery flashed though you need to get fastboot to see your device (unless you can already boot into recovery, then just use ADB).

If he's stuck at the Google logo and has a trash boot.img it's not likely he'll be able to get a shell via ADB. Now, if the system is hanging starting a device or looping during boot then that's possible.

Indeed - I saw no clockwork and figured he'd toasted his recovery image as well, but it does look like stock recovery is there. ADB should push fine to the sdcard from recovery then.
More...so if i type in adb reboot bootloader in the recovery screen, it does just that...great. But then my computer makes a noise, a double tap if you will...like a dun dun, like something didn't work. When you plug in something to the computer it usually goes like dun na...but the phone clearly won't read when I'm in bootloader/fastboot mode. So when I type a command, nothing will work...

That noise is that it detects a device has been connected (assuming a recent version of windows). If you want to flash CWM you need to get the driver sorted for the device. No amount of plugging/unplugging is going to fix it.
If you have the stock recovery you can boot into the stock recovery, use adb to push the full OTA package to the sd card and then just flash that from the stock recovery.

Go to the stock recovery like you have done before and type the adb command I wrote above.
Thanks is all I can say. Okay so when I type in the command, this is what I get:
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -
the "stock recovery" I can get into is the picture I posted a link for. That's what I can access as well as the fastboot mode when I first turn on the phone with volume up/power. But when my computer makes the noise that it's connected (using Windows 7 64bit) it makes a different sound then the normal "device connected." Like it's corrupted.
by the way...if we can get this working, I'll post a picture of me holding the fixed phone!

Download the stock kernel zip from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319202404 and place it in the fastboot folder. Then reboot in recovery and choose adb sideload. Open cmd and type : adb sideload namekernel.zip and press enter and that should do it, then reboot.

Hello,
When the phone is in recovery mode, the file explorer won't show up with your nexus files... The fact that a sound is coming proves that the phone is being detected...
If you have setup a working adb environment you can follow what @gee2012 has said and sideload the kernel and flash it... If you haven't then download the android sdk and make sure you have downloaded the usb_driver package as well...

First, don't yet think your phone it's bricked. The actual solution is to get the proper driver on the computer. Remember that nexus 5 does not have Sdcard and there's not way to mount to the computer via recovery. Only ADB PUSH and ADB SIDELOAD will put a Rom into your phone.
You have to check on device manager to see the status of the driver. if t shows as Nexus 5, you will have to update the driver to and adb compatible one. If it says ADB........ then, you are good to go
EDIT: @vin4yak, one day I'll go to ninja school too
1.) If your device is actually bricked then a USB cable will do you absolutely no good. Fixing a "bricked" device is something that will need to be JTAG'd for it to work again. I think you might be mistaken about what a bricked device is. Its pretty hard to brick a nexus device so I highly doubt you're device is bricked.
2.) You have to get into fastboot mode. Just search for how to do so. Then you can flash the stock img's through fastboot and you'll be back in business. I have no clue about what drivers you'll need for your setup as I haven't run windows in 9 years or so. Just get the drivers, fastboot, and get your nexus back.
Why don't you just flash a boot.img from the stock rom? Or going back to stock?
You cannot mount sdcard to the pc in recovery. You have to use adb push or adb sideload.
To make adb work in recovery you need naked usb drivers 0.73.
Then you can adb sideload a rom, or push a rom to /sdcard.
Anyway download my attachment, put your phone to fastboot mode and double click on flash.bat then report me back
Check out this thread. If you can boot into recovery, then you should be able to boot into fastboot and restore your N5 back to stock.

[TUTORIAL] How to flash a factory image | Return to stock | Unroot/SAVE your Nexus 5
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Deleted more than I should

Apparently while doing a factory reset I managed to delete almost everything from internal storage. I've used cwm for years and made the switch to twrp recently. I could have sworn I checked everything BUT internal storage though. My data partition was showing something insane like 7 terabytes used so I wasn't able to make a nandroid. I instead deleted the data partition and somehow this happened.
Now I have no nandroids, and no more ROM zips. I attempted the procedure I used in the "how to unlock bootloader etc" thread, but when I try to push the ROM zip via the push command, it says no device found. I used Odin back in the day. Is it usable for any phone? Anyone know how to go about fixing this?
Odin is Samsung only. So, you can't adb push anything to the device?

I thought Odin was device specific. I was hoping I was wrong though. Adb push isn't working, it just says no device found twice in a row. I can see it if I do fastboot devices though. I'll try reinstalling the Adb drivers when I get home.

You have to be in recovery mode to do adb.
Fastboot devices is only while in fastboot mode.
Just adb sideload and not adb push. You have to go into ADB sideload in TWRP

I feel pretty dumb now. That's what I get for getting all pissed about all my data getting deleted and not reading instructions properly.

Its okay, we all have our days enjoy your phone now. But yeah to elaborate more,
Odin is Samsung specific.
All other phones for the most part use fastboot. Which is pretty much our version of "Odin" but it is much better than Odin. Easier to use and less problems in my opinion.

[Q] oneplus one stuck at boot menu and ADB sideload refusing

hello everybody,
so my phones speakers stopped working and I couldn't fix them so I went to twrp recovery and executed a factory reset. This resulted in the device hanging at the boot screen. I then spent half an hour trying to get the drivers working and when it finally saw the phone and I wanted to sideload the 33R zip it just gave me this long list with possible command (see screenshot attached).
in fastboot it's not seeing the phone for some reason
I have access to the following:
TWRP Recovery
Fastboot
Any idea on how to get my phone working again?

Do you have a backup or even a ROM zip on the phone you can install from TWRP?

First on your PC try typing adb devices it should return the device serial number in the command prompt.
If it does then in TWRP click advanced, ADB Sideload, then swipe the blue arrow.
Then on your PC command prompt type adb sideload "ROM/File Name.zip" without the quotes.
It should load from there.

Ok try adb push "ROM/File.zip" /sdcard
That will put the rom zip on the root of your sdcard and you can flash from there.

After it shows my device id number it says recovery, yours says host? Are you doing this with TWRP booted?
Hold on it looks like you need to update your drivers...

Try uninstalling the ones you have and installing this one.

Good luck man, I've got to get back to work.
I know the adb push "ROM/File.zip" /sdcard works because I tested on my phone prior to posting.
One last thought is your SDK might need to be updated as well.

Currently trying it on my laptop which has a fresh reinstall, removing the drivers completely will take too long.
Your driver saw it as a google galaxy nexus adb Interface, when I used adb devices it didn't see it.
EDIT: when I go to reboot it says that there is no os installed so yea...
Another Edit: I will try this driver when I get home and report back. OnePlus adb drivers windows
I managed to fix it using the oneplus one toolkit by manudroid
