Hi Everyone
I just installed cwm on my nexus 5 and when I was rebooting there came an option that said I could disable the original stock recovery that would be flashed since I was going on the stock rom. I pressed that and now when I reboot the phone keeps going on the 4 colour boot screen. I tried using flashing the stock rom via the bootloader but have had no success. The commands seem to be failing in the bootloader.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!
Can you boot into revovery?

Hey guys, I think I made a fatal mistake. My battery was at 3%, and I attempted to flash Franco Kernel r25. The phone rebooted into a black screen. I did a hard reset, and it sent me to the bootloader. From there, I attempted to start, but it gets me a black screen again. I went into TWRP recovery to reboot and shutoff, but still doesn't work. Every hard reset brought up the bootloader, every start gives me a black screen.
Thanks
Flash Google factory images.

I had this problem once, the only way was to get into recovery mode then install the ROM again (better wipe before install)
it worked for me.
Wow, just flashed the r25 img, i guess the install didnt finish earlier. THANKS!!!!
You can also flash a backup

I am on stock 4.4.3. I enabled ART, and then it powered down to reboot, now Im stuck at the nexus boot logo. I know ART takes some time to boot, but its been an hour plus now. Seems like Im stuck, is it possible to switch to dalvik through adb? Or will I be stuck reflashing stock image? BTW, I cant get into recovery, I get the dead android logo only aand cant vol up into it

I was stock. but now i remember that when i was restoring apps with Titanium Backup that it installed Xposed, hence my issue. I just flashed 4.4.3 factory image for other reasons as well.

I was pressing vol up and it wouldnt let me into the recovery. Not sure why, but i ended up flashing factory images. thanks
I think my Nexus 5 is fried (hopefully not).
I went to check my phone (almost full battery last time I looked), and I notice it's on the boot screen (the google logo with the lock symbol on the bottom) but it won't go past it. Strange, hold power down until it restarts, same thing, stuck at the logo. I am able to get into recovery (TWRP 2.7.0.0). But it can't do anything, can't wipe cache, can't restore/backup, because it can't mount any partition.
I was on stock 4.4.4 rooted, with Franco kernel r54.
Have you guys seen this before!? What should I do?
Can you get into the bootloader? Vol down + power

Yes, that is how I got to recovery. Selected recovery from the bootloader. I can also see the device through fastboot in bootloader mode.

Get the cache.img from the factory image and flash that in fastboot.

Flashed cache.img from the factory image in fastboot, did fastboot reboot, and now it's doing the same thing, stuck at the Google logo.

I'd try the entire factory image then. You could try it without userdata.img to try and save your data

This is my lesson to not only do a nandroid backup BUT SAVE IT TO MY COMPUTER.....grrrrr.

Just noticed you're on that thread too. If it is the /data that's corrupt, or worse, all my partitions are corrupt, what's the best way to pull the data that's in there now? adb? What if I can't mount it?
Wow...it somehow just booted. I installed Philz' recovery and it was saying the same thing, coudln't mount /data, /cache or anything. Told it to reboot into bootloader, that didn't work so I go to power it on and it booted... :/

Well, that's good. Hopefully it'll continue without problems. And, yea, I get around

I left it overnight to backup everything off my phone onto the computer, and I wake up to it powered off, now it won't boot again, lovely! At least it let me copy everything!

I had the same problem a few weeks ago. If you don't care about losing your /data, just reinstall TWRP and whatever ROM you're using.
Sounds a bit like your emmc is corrupt

So after this happened I decided to completely reflash it with the stock 4.4.4 image. Now, 2 weeks later I wake up and my phone is off. Won't boot past the Google screen, again. Seriously!? I didn't undervolt it at all this time. Completely stock except root and Franco's r54 kernel.

You probably will have to. Use the option to flash back to stock.

Yea if I wanted to lose my data, it would be easy! It can all be done through fastboot.

Try flashing a stock, rooted rom in recovery, just dirty flash it. You'll probably have to use adb to side load or push the rom to the device

I will try that as a last resort, but considering that /data can't be mounted, I'm pretty sure that won't help since it'll just flash system right? The data partition is corrupt (just like last time). I'm trying the method of fixing the corruption through adb based on the link I pasted on the first page.
Could someone please help, my nexus 5 is rooted and has twrp recovery.
I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/4-4-4-stock-xperia-devices-ps4-remote-t2868092
Flashed the zip file, then as I was wiping the dalvik cache my phones screen turned off and I was really scared, so pressed the buttons to get back into recovery volume down and power on, boot logo flashed up a twice and then a sigh of relief, then I realised I haven't got any signal on my phone, then looked into my files and they are all gone, I can't install any new apps. the phones internal memory is not showing up.
Just realized that it's not for twrp recovery it was for cwm.:crying:
How do I get out of this and back to normal
Edit -as the phone was wiping dalvik cache when the screen went off, I didnt know it was just turning the screen off, so I interupted it by reseting the device
thanks
Go into boot loader and flash stock

Why did you flash something for the Xperia on your device. Try flashing the factory image in fastboot but you might have bricked your device

Luckily the zip just contains /system files on this occasion.
/system/etc/permissions and /system/frameworks
...so flashing a Nexus 5 ROM should remedy the problem.
