Non rooted/unlocked nexus rebooting constantly - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My son's nexus started rebooting on its own here and there a little less than a month ago. Last week it started boot looping. I would have to turn it off(only worked sometimes by going into fastboot mode). Tried resetting and wiping in recovery with no luck. This problem gets worse when it's plugged up to a computer the phone turns into a reboot machine. I read up it could be the power button and took it apart to find the button works fine (still cleaned out though). Any ideas.

Sounds like a software issue to me, is it stock or custom?

Yeah stock recovery doesn't really allow anything, its more locked down than anything, my suggestion to u would be root it, grab a aosp ROM or something that looks stable from one of the development threads, if I could I'd suggest Beanstalk, I was a part of that development team for a long time and its an awesome upgrade from stock, I'd grab a twrp recovery, unlock the bootloader and flash recovery, then wipe everything and install a ROM, shouldn't have any issues after that, and if u do, then its hardware

Can't root or unlock it. Once I connect it to a computer through USB it goes into crazy reboot mode. Won't go past the Google screen.

The phone won't stay in fastboot mode?

Sometimes it will
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

If it stays in fastboot mode, use the fastboot command "fastboot erase userdata" and "fastboot erase cache" and see what happens. If these commands fail, the emmc in the phone could be dying.

Not sure how to do that
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

Well using the root toolkit on got it to the point of the unlock screen and selected yes then when it reboots it just stays on the boot screen. Have to use the toolkit with fastboot screen since I can't install drivers for the toolkit to recognize the phone.

Have you had success at unlocking the bootloader? If you unlock it, does it relock when the phone is rebooted? If the answer is yes to both questions, I think it's time for a replacement motherboard.

It unlocks but then when it tries to reboot it just stays on the Google boot screen. When I put it back into fastboot it shows as locked still. So I guess it's the motherboard then.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

Yup, time to find a Nexus 5 with a smashed screen and working internals. I've done the motherboard swap for a few N5s.

check for the infamous power button fault. that can easily cause endless reboot cycle.

I have never come across a situation where the power button causes the bootloader to relock itself when the phone is rebooted.

I posted in the op if ruled out power button ad on taken out apart already and checked that first. Exactly once it says unlocked and tried to reboot it stays in bootloop then when I force it into fastboot it shows as locked still.

[Q] Stuck on i9023 rooting

Yesterday, I tried a oneclick root application but turns out only to complete the mission halfway. After pushing volume up and power button, I see
Lock state- unlocked, but Rom manager told me I'm not rooted
Today I found several thread, including the sticky thread on the top of the forum page, to root it the regular way. However, when I proceed to
fastboot oem unlock
nothing happens on the phone screen
Then I tried next step
"fastboot flash recovery 3024v3-i9023.img"
the picture of what happened is attached

still nothing on the phone screen
I try the recovery option on the phone, but few seconds later exclamtion sign and android robot show up. I'm able to get out of it and go into android system recovery, which only has 4 option
reboot system now
apply update from /sdcard
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
I tried both wipe option but they are both fruitless except wiping out all my data. They didn't change the lock/unlock property.
My i9023 is on 2.3.6, don't know if it matters.
So here is my situation, this is my first attempt to root the phone.
Guys help me please.
Did you get it rooted?
Have you tried this?

your youtube link direct me to wrong place. Actually I've seen video that use Nexusrootnew.zip maybe that's the one you want me to watchbut I the zip I downloaded is 4kb and obviously didn't work...
No matter how I try, it's always android 1.0 device...
Just in case we are missing the obvious, when you run your fastboot command, is your phone plugged into your computer via usb, and with your phone on the bootloader screen (power button + volume up when your phone is off)?
also, try:
fastboot devices
Guys, finally get it rooted and installed cm7.1. But the driver still seems to have some problem. It still reads android 1.0 in the device manager on the computer but the cwm is flashed in accidentally. Everything after is easy.

[Q] (Mostly) Unresponsive HOX After Flashing ROM

I will preface this question by saying that I'm not an expert in Android development, but this is also not my first time flashing a ROM and I am relatively comfortable with basic ADB commands and such. I try not to get involved in anything too complicated, but I like the control custom ROMs give.
I have an AT&T One X that had (has?) TWRP and ViperXL 3.2.5 on it. I wanted to try out the CM10 nightlies ROM. So I download the latest build and the gapps. Do a backup, do a full wipe, then flash the CM10 zip. In TWRP I get confirmation that it has flashed successfully. So I reboot, but I get nothing. A simple power on does nothing. Holding the power button flashes the back, home, settings buttons for ~10 seconds, then I get the white HTC screen with the red warning text, then nothing. Attempting to boot into recovery with the Power and Vol down button does the same.
What's going on here? I'm going to see if ADB will recognize the device, but I'm not sure what my steps should be to get a working phone back. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

After the back, home, settings buttons blink and the screen turns off, let go wait 3 seconds then press and hold power and volume down. It will go into bootloader. Also, make sure the phone is not plugged in while doing this.
Make sure you release power after the buttons flash, but hold vol down. That will get you into bootloader.
I suspect you've got the wrong kernel (Sense kernels don't work with asop). Are you s-off? If not, did you flash the CM10 boot.img in fastboot?
Thanks!

OK I can get into the bootloader. It looks like S-ON unfortunately, and no I didn't flash the CM10 boot.img. I assume that should take care of the kernel incompatibility?

Well I think I have everything fixed - I used a tool to flash the boot.img from fastboot and CM now seems to boot correctly. Thanks a lot for the help!

Not a big problem though.. You are in bootloop,in order to get out of it. If cwm is working then go there and wipe everything. After that go to DOWNLOAD Mode and flash your sock ROM of your phone. It wil surely work.

Not needed you can only delete cwm by flasing the stock recovery or a stock rom with odin!
Maybe you should go to the Galaxy S2 forums and ask it there!

[q] help - phone won't even boot anymore

I have a strange issue with my GS3 Verizon. I was running Clean ROM 4 and then recently wiped it and put Clean Rom 7.0 on it. Everything was working fine until last week it started just powering off randomly. So i'd pull the battery, reboot, and voila, it worked for a while until it randomly powered down again. Today i was thinking maybe it was Clean Rom causing this so I wiped it and installed Wicked Sensations. The problem only worsened. It started powering down like every minute. Now not eve a battery pull will get the phone back on.
Verizon is sending me a replacement, but i have to get this phone unrooted and back to stock so i don't have to pay a 300 dollar fee.
Can anyone PLEASE help me get this done? I have Samsung Drivers and Oden but doesn't recognize this blank screen device...

So you can't turn on the phone even with the power plug in? is there any indication where the phone has power, like vibrating, flashing light, sound etc..? I don't think your phone is brick, most likely hardware issue since it's acting up before it die.
Exactly...there is no sign of power whatsoever. Verizon is sending a replacement but i'm worried they'll figure out it's rooted w a custom ROM flashed...so i was hoping to find a way to get unrooted and back to stock before it is sent back to them...
BUT I will say....when i plug the phone into my mac, i get the dialog box from VMWare fusion that asks do you want this device connected to Mac or Windows...but then Oden doesn't see it on Windows side and Android File Transfer won't notice it on mac side...but at least there's recognition that SOMETHING was just plugged in to the machine... hope?

So pretend the screen is dead, boot it into download mode,(hold down the 3 buttons) wait 30 sec, then connect the phone to your pc see if your pc see the phone through Odin.(even though the screen is black).

Are you not putting your device in download mode first? You must first place the phone into download mode yourself. Also make sure those USB ports are USB 2.0. USB 3.0 will cause that exact error your getting as well.

Yup. USB 2.0. Yes, I put the phone in to DL mode before plugging it in. Sometimes it flashes almost all the way then gets as far as checking minios then blue factory reset screen and I'm stuck there due to flashtool failing to read the phone -again-.

Remember it's almost always going to fail after 80%. That's supposed to happen as the reset is just rebooting. Since your getting mini os did you reflash choose board_dl?

No, I used update dl, what flashtool was set at when I installed it.
Edit: And now I cannot get into DL mode anymore. Just a minios thing then a blue screen with the number 2 and 'Factory reset' on it.
Can't do anything otherwise. Stuck there.
