[Q] Not booting to stock recovery??? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello guys,
I have successfully installed the Lollipop release LRX21o... Initially i used the flash-all.sh method... it gave me an error first.. so i clicked flash-all.sh once again.... then it installed everything without any error... Phone booted and everything was working fine.. but when i tried to load the stock recoevery (to wipe everything) pressing the vol + button on recovery screen doesnt get me any where.. all i can see is the android with red triangle.
I tried the manual process of flashing the rom.... same thing happened..
I havent tried any custom recover image.. .So cant tell about others.
Are u guys having the same problem???
Is there any work around?

Have you tried manually reflashing recovery?

I tried manually flashing every .img files (the manual method of installing).. so technically i flashed it manually. everything went well. so it is definitely installed but not working. thats why im quarrying. Anybody facing the same issue??? ( i will try to reflash the recovery only will report.)

The way to get into the stock recovery menu is not by pressing the vol + button.
When you see the Android with the exclamation point, you need to HOLD the power button and then press volume up.

[Q] How to get into stock recovery?

Can someone tell me how to get into the stock recovery?
Power up in to H-boot (power + volume down) and choose recovery from there. It could be power + volume up, can't remember 100%
Why do you need stock recovery? nothing interesting there as far as I could tell....

I Tried... I hit Recovery from Bootloader and all I got was a Triangle with Exclamation piont. Had to pull battery and power on.
Press volume up + power together in recovery to see options.

Do you meen press volume up and power when your in the bootloader? I could not get into stock recovery from bootloader.
No. When you're in bootloader, scroll down to recovery using volume keys and select it using power button. Phone will reboot into recovery. Then, while you are seeing pic of a phone with exclamation point, press volume up and power button simultaneously to show text.

That is the stock recovery. Hold power and press vol up (I think, been a while since I've used it) to get the menu.
You should flash a recovery first, man.....if I understand the problem correctly

9020 stuck on triangle with Android doing road work

Stuck on the triangle screen with Android doing road work and the words "Downloading below it" if I hold the power down and boot the device.
This happened when I tried to flash the ICS ROM and then another Gingerbread ROM after that which doesn't want to boot. Would really help if someone can help me recover.
Thanks

Lol hopefully u wiped full when flashing rom's... alright so turn off ur phone.. hold power button the volume up at the same time... using the volume down button scroll to recovery... Ull see the triangle again with an exclamation mark in center... hit volume up and power again (night take a couple of tries) once in recovery just go to restore and back up... restore.... and pick the recent one u backed up

If you don't have a backup, use ADB to flash clockworkmod again, boot into CWM, do the full wipe procedure and reflash the ROM.

Volume Up + Power doesn't do anything and tries to boot into the flashed ROM which doesn't get past the glowing Android logo. Only thing that works is volume down + power which shows Android doing the digging...
And yep- I did wipe everything including davlik and battery before installing the new ROM

Ah my bad, I figured you already knew the procedure since you're in the stage of flashing ROMs.
Follow this guide, you can skip to part 3 if you've already unlocked your device and have the Android SDK installed:

Make sure to wipe data + cache + dalvik. Battery stats are irrelevant to this process so you could leave them untouched

Not included. It seems to be removed from the CWM recovery
I've experienced this as well, and what I can recommend is just try it again, only press the vol down and home button first before pressing the power button. to make sure less errors are had press from the lowest portion of the vol down button.
I remember that the kernel must be flashed with odin or i'm wrong??

Yep it must be flashed with odin, but you have to enter in download mode to do that via pc
another alternative is flash the kernel via odin mobile, I've done it several times and have not had any problems
try to enter download mode thorugh cwm icon
or if you have cyagnomed rom
then if you want to enter ur mode here the steps
connect your device with your pc
turn of ur mobile
take off battery
press down volume + home + power button and then enter the battery while you are pressing ..

Stock Recovery missing :(

Hello,
i need to send back my phone to google, so i restored the stock ROM without any problem. BUT :
i had 3 errors messages during the installation process :
image does not contain boot.sig
image does not contain recovery.sig
image does not contain system.sig
The most annoying is : when, via the fastboot access, i try to go to the recovery mode, i have only an android icon with a red pannel. no recovery anymore.
what happened ? how to restore the sotck recovery of my nexus 5 ?
thanks,
regards
When you're in the recovery with the red exclamation mark hit vol up.
That is the stock recovery. See above for how to actually use it, but there isn't much you can do with it.
EDIT: Isn't it vol up + power?

Vol up has always worked for me but I've seen others where vol up + power is required

Volume up will do.

yes i saw it... omg. The android icon with the red /!\ is not clear.
for me, it was the recovery is missing ( since i had these message with "recovery.sig" and other files .sig missing ).
thanks for the tips to access to this poor recovery.

Guys i have the stock rom on my nvidia shield k1 but no recovery, i installed the rom by adb, everything is working good but i dont have recovery, it shows a message saying no command and i already tried to install twrp via adb, the progress was completed but when i checked if a had recovery, i saw the same as before, a message saying "no command"...

That is stock recovery.... It's waiting for you to do something.
I don't remember which button to press probably power + vol up.

To avoid the problem of the buttons I'm using an app giving the choice to reboot directly in recovery :
