bootlooped but dont know how to enable debugging - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so this morning i woke up and my nexus 5 was in a bootloop for absolutely no reason, i have done nothing to this phone for a year and half. this happened to me once when i tried to unroot it but my device already had usb debugging on so i could just fix it from there.
so, how do i enable usb debugging on a bootlooped phone?
thanks in advance
edit: damn wrong thread section, if a mod sees this please move this to the nexus 5 section

Why do you need to enable usb debugging?

You should try flashing /system only from the factory image of whatever version of Android you are running.

Unable to go into debugging mode. Help appreciated.

Hello fellow G2x users. Sorry if this question has been asked before. I have used the search function but still haven't found a solution. I just received my refurbished G2x from T-mobile insurance today since my HD2 no longer charges. I'm ready to root and flash a rom on the phone but when I connect the USB cable that came with the phone, it would not detect it and the USB debugging mode does not pop up. I went to Setting - Applications - Development, and made sure the USB debugging is checked but nothing. Also downloaded the USB cable driver from the LG website, still nothing. So any help would be appreciated because I want to get this phone running on CM7 and try these kernels! Thank you.
Wrong section. Delete thread. Sorry.

Why ask this question in two threads? Could be a bad usb cord or uninstall all lg drivers and reinstall them again. Make sure your phone is not plugged into the computer while you install the drivers for the first time also. Then restart your pc and then plug your g2x, should be fine then.
I realized I posted in the wrong section that's why. Thanks, will try that right now.

[CM12] Nexus 5 is not detected via USB when plugged

I have a strange issue, when i connect my phone over USB the computer does not recognize my phone, there are no options in the notifications, when i enable usb debugging the phone just reboots. When I enter TWRP and enable MTP there everything works fine. I have CM12 installed since the first nightly and dont know currently when the problem occured but I always flash the latest nightly available. I would like to prevent a factory reset to fix things.
Deactivate USB debugging, connect your phone to your PC and go to Settings -> Storage. In the upper right corner you can choose the connection. Look if MTP is enabled there Hope this helps
the problem is, everything regarding usb storage is greyed out and android debugging is enabeld as soon as i disable it i get a soft reboot and when i reenter developer settings its enabled again
Ah, don't know it then. Factory reset would solve it pretty sure. But since you said you don't want to wait a few more hours.. maybe someone knows a better solution.
Oh hey, 1000th post by the way
congratulations I think i'll just factory reset, does anyone know how i can backup multi-user accounts with their settings?

[Q] A simple question about usb debugging

I have a gt-p5113 that is stuck in a bootloop. I've read many many forums on bootloops and have tried many of the suggestions until I discovered that my tab is supposed to have usb debugging checked.
Unfortunately, I never did any customization with my tablet so the usb debugging did not get checked before my tab started doing the boot loop.
So here's the question: Is it possible to recover my tab without having the usb debugging checked? If I can, how do I do that?

OnePlus One not recognized in My Computer

I tried to access my phone's internal storage but the phone doesn't show in My Computer. The Portable Device in Device manager says MTP USB device and it has the yellow triangle on it. The Samsung driver is the Android Composite ADB Interface with no triangle. I have debugging on but the MTP device driver always fails whether debugging is on or not. I used Koush's drivers found here on XDA but same old thing. The Portable Device used to show up as A0001 and /or One but now it doesn't and I don't understand how that happened. Can someone enlighten me and perhaps solve this problem? It's been very frustrating as I just spent 13 hours trying to get my phone working (Thanks Heisenberg for fixing) and now another 6 trying to figure this out. Please HELP if you can. Thanks!

Even I had faced this problem on Windows 8. I had installed drivers 4-5 odd times. But later I just flashed CM11S zip via recovery and enabled USB Debugging Mode and it finally got recognized on my laptop.
I was facing many issues with all lollipop ROMs. Hence I reverted back and now everything is working fine.
I, too am using CM11s as Lollipop has too many bugs for me at this time. Maybe I'll try re-flashing CM and see what happens. Thanks for the reply
My question is: How can one flash from recovery when the file that needs to be flashed cannot be sent to the phone because it's not recognized by the computer?
Nevermind...I figured it out and flashed 11S successfully! Everything shows up now on computer. WOOT!
