Bricked? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone, so I usually know how to solve these situations, but this is different. I was trying to flash a rom so wiped everything from recovery and then realized that there is nothing on the sd card. I tried booting the phone but it is stuck at the google logo. Here is the problem: I am not able to get into bootloader/recovery mode and cant boot into the software. Does this mean the device is hard bricked?
Thannk You

ok so i am in recover/bootloader. when i am in twrp i can adb reboot to bootloader, but when i try to push a file it says device not found

No, it means u wiped everything and now need to sideload a new ROM, u will need a PC in order to do it, in twrp there is an advances section, in there is the adb sideload option, download the ROM and gapps to PC, and if u use windows use one of the toolkits to sideload the ROM u wanna flash, if Linux, use the terminal and type
adb sideload "name of ROM here".zip
Let it do its thing and ur all set, or u could just use the PC to dl the files then use a USB to transfers the ROM to the phone and flash it
PS, didn't see u can't get into recovery, have u tried long pressing power and volume, or whatever ur devices button combo is for recover?

Try holding down power, when it starts to reboot, switch to vol- and hold that till it boots to twrp, at worse u may need to use a PC and adb to boot to fastboot mode

Cant he just fastboot Marshmallow stock rom put the files back in and fastboot TWRP. Ive done that plenty of times and I hate it. I know you can sideboot a rom but havent for the life of me figured it out. But Bricked!!! Nope you havent, your good bro.

What kind of PC are u using, u dont have USB fastboot drivers working, that's ur problem, the PC can't see it in fastboot mode

I recommend starting from scratch by flashing a stock MM ROM, then TWRP, and then a custom ROM.

SOLVED [Q] HELP I formatted my nexus s sd-card in cwm and now i cant reinstall rom

ok here the problem. I have a nexus s and I did wipe of my phone from cwm.
I wiped everything and even formatted everything.
I even went to the format:sd-card option and did that.
didnt think of having a rom on the card before I did the wipe. normally it just formats the file but puts storage space and right folders back in
what is happening now is when i turn on my phone it only comes up with the fastboot bootloader. I can get into cwm but that is about it. when I connect my phone to my computer. to try and access the storage drive. it only shows a blank removable drive(only when I am in cwm) when I am in the boot loader I cant access it. but eiher way i cant access the storage itself.
I have all the right drivers.
I can fastboot, the lastest cwm,( I even try to do a flash with a recovery cwm which was for a 16gb device but it didnt work.
but the only thing I cant do is access the storage itself or install any .zip file to the phone and re-flash my rom!
I have look high and low on google and all over the net and I have not found a solid solution. I have tried just about every thing I can with it
does anyone know or have any tips on fixing this.
is there any way for me to reformat my sd-card and put the files i need on it to install my rom again? or did i just turn my phone into paper weight?
as of now my phone is just a paperweight that charges and lights up.
any tips or help would be great.
Thank you in advance.
Does your phone has external sd slot?

get into clockwork recovery -> mounts and storage -> mount usb storage
connect to the pc and past there the rom zip... then flash it
if only fastboot work you can try to download system.img and boot.img for your phone and install with :
>fastboot flash boot boot.img
>fastboot flash system system.img
Attention (boot.img and system.img must be at the same rom) . Good luck!

Thank you.
For anyone else with the same problem just use adb to sent cwm 5.0.2.3 to the phone and that will fix it

Tried to install the USB drivers , ADB /Fastboot tools again after connecting my Nexus S to a computer .But now ran into another issue . Whenever i am in Bootloader i get the following : "Fastboot Mode - NO BOOT OR RECOVERY IMG" .
However i am able to get into CWM .
when i run "ADB devices" command from computer i do not get any list of devices ! If i remove the battery and then put it again i get a device code i.e when i run ADB devices .
I just need something that will show my phone Memory on my PC so that i can dump the ROM there and then flash it .. I guess my phone is gone !!!

If you are able to get into cwm can you connect the phone and in cwm mount usb option while connected. You computer should have the drive come up. Let me know if that works

I did the same mistake as wiping the internal sd, i think its corrupted so even with any CWM version, already tried out like 4 of them, i cant seem to mount the /system or usb storage.
I cant even fastboot flash system or userdata, any solutions?
Guys, I just did this about 2 weeks ago. Use the Odin method to put a new from on there. Then you can totally unroot and put back to stock. Then reroot it if you want. I did this exactly and never had a problem again.

[Recovery] official cwm 6.0.1.9 [update 11/16]

Removed all my Dropbox links because they disabled my account due to too much traffic, if you guys want them back please consider donating a buck or two for a Mediafire Pro account...​I didn't develop this, just getting the word out that's it's officially available for the Nexus 7. You can either install the "normal" version or touch version from ROM Manager
UPDATE 11/16 new version posted by Koush 6.0.1.9
CWM Regular
CWM Touch
Here is the CWM ZIP by osm0sis:
Touch 6.0.1.9
Regualr 6.0.1.9
You NEED an unlocked bootloader in order to flash this check this thread on how-to unlock/root etc Nexus 7 Toolkit
If you just want to apply an OTA update and you haven't got it, you can do so by booting into CWM without installing it or having root.
first download and save OTA files from OTA 4.1.1 files and save to your /sdcard
then use
./adb reboot bootloader
./fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.9-grouper.img
select install zip from sdcard
toggle signature verification and make sure it's disabled
select the file you downloaded earlier and install
reboot and you will be updated
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you want to have CWM permantly installed, first make sure you have root...use Root Explorer or any other file manager with root access and go to /system and delete recovery-from-boot.p
now use
./adb reboot bootloader
./fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.9-grouper.img
./adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You now have CWM installed.
I'm not responsible if you brick your tablet, it blows up mid flash etc
Make sure you know how to use ADB and have the SDK installed, you need that in order to do all of the above steps
Also make sure you have the recovery files saved to /sdk/platform-tools and also fastboot.exe has to be there also
Any commands that start with ./ are for linux/osx...just remove those when using windows

Click to collapse
If you already have CWM or another recovery installed and would like to replace it with 6.0.0.6 Touch, I have packaged this file as a flash able zip file.
Download the zip file from http://db.tt/t13uCIRV and flash in recovery. To test, go to advanced -> reboot recovery and CWM Touch 6.0.0.6 should load up.
** edit 7/21/12**
Here's the zip file for the new touch recovery 6.0.1.0 http://db.tt/pLDeKXEf

I flashed this from rom manager and so far have not had any of the problems I have had in some of the interim CWM's like inability to delete back ups or mounting system.

It works as long as you're connected to a computer, so you can access recovery from bootloader you just need to be hooked to a computer.
I know right,,,almost seems like it is not doing it right but I have went back to a previous backup and it flashed fine!

If you know how to use ADB you can always fastboot a recovery.img,,,,this thing is almost impossible to truly brick. IN order to get into fastboot just connect to your computer and run adb with these commands
adb reboot bootloader
once in fastboot mode write this
fastboot devices
that will tell you if your device is connected and reading in fastboot mode if it is you will see something like fastboot and some numbers next to it. If nothing you do not have the fastboot drivers installed.
then to fastboot flash a recovery.img write this
fastboot flash recovery r3-recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.4-nexus7-modaco.img (or whatever recovery.img you are using or have in your tools folder of you SDK location).
and in order to get right into CWM if you cant boot write this
fastboot boot r3-recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.4-nexus7-modaco.img
hope that helps

Did you install the ota after you rooted and installed the recovery? I soft bricked too and I think that was the reason why. Something about the ota overwrote the recovery partition. Best thing to do is download ROM manager and click the first option to flash cwm. Then click the next button to boot into recovery. Then just flash the zip I posted to upgrade to touch.
**edit** just tried to boot into recovery from the boot loader and got stuck at the Google screen too. Holding all three buttons rebooted and started up as normal. Maybe the boot loader boot into recovery is pointing to a different partition for some reason?
Booting into recovery from ROM manager works though. That's how I've been getting in.

What did you try?
Can you adb boot into recovery from the bootloader?
Oh and you can't 'adb reboot' in fastboot just hit the power button.
yes and can do this while in fastboot (bootloader mode)
fastboot boot r3-recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.4-nexus7-modaco.img (or whatever the name of your recovery.img is)

Which is correct. You won't be able to do adb commands in the bootloader. The command he asked you to try was a fastboot command, which should work

[Solved] wont boot after chainfire3d in JB. Fastboot- showing error

I tried installing chainfire3d driver in jellybean( i didnt know then that it is not for JB). Now my nexus wont boot into os. it just stays at the unlocked bootloader logo.
1. I can get into recovery mode
2. I have wiped out the cache and factory reset
3. I dont have a update file in my phone.since nexus dont have an external sd card i cant put any file in it directly.
4. I have tried fastboot -it shows my serial ID and i am able to reboot my phone using it but whenever i try to flash recovery.img or update update.zip it shows "cannot load recovery.img" or "cannot update update.zip"
5. I have tried ADB - on using adb shell it shows "error:device not found"
6. on using Odin (not sure whether it is compatible with Nexus s) it detects my phone. when i tried to flash the stock fireware it fails and my device shows "verify image (radio) fail"
Plz help.Is my phone bricked???????
Ok I don't want to be insulting, but you really REALLY need to read on the whole process of Nexus S rooting and using it.
You don't have to use ODIN at all for something so simple. You simply need to reflash a ROM/your ROM.
Mount your SD from within Clockworkmod recovery and transfer a ROM. Then flash it. Done.
What polo says go to recovery- mount and formay- all the way down "mount sd card". Now your phone will be like a usb drive

Pres power for 2min should be turn off. Then try power and volume down to enter the fastboot. If you succeed, then download the proper stock rom for your device from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14 then follow this guide to recover the phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
If you cant enter fastboot then i really don't know. Then It should be done by side loading the rom, but have no experience with that. regards

Cant flash TWRP ! S.O.S!

hi, dont send for googling please, i have spent several hours reading
i cant flash TWRP because i cant login into it, after a flash i reboot, and try to press power button, but its resets or cynogenmod is booting, so its probably overwrite the TWRP recovery ...
all this after cm13 update, i know i need old TWRP and stock ROM, but just cant flash it
i use adb
screenshot is attached

After flashing twrp you have two options. Either turn off your phone by long pressing power button and then use volume down + power button combo to boot into recovery.
Second option is after flashing it do fastboot reboot and immediately hold down the volume down button. It will boot into recovery

if i choose the second option FASTBOOT REBOOT ,should i unplug the phone from the pc, or it doesnt matter..
i dont understand what is my problem, i am not that dumb, i start to believe that it says ok, like in screenshot, but twrp is not really there, so when OS doesnt find the recovery its jump to CM rom..
tnx

If you're in fastboot then only fastboot devices command will work. Adb commands are done when the phone is booted in OS. I saw that photo you posted and it seems you know how to flash TWRP (fastboot flash recovery *****.img). Flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 image if it says successful. Then turn off your phone and use button combo. Can't be any simpler.

In twrp you can copy files just like if you had it on. Just connect to PC and transfer ROM + gapps. Latest CM13 + Open gapps should work perfectly as long as you use TWRP 2.8.6.0. Make sure you have the right drivers for your phone. Google search or go to YouTube you'll find the right drivers

when i connect it to the PC, i dont see it , so i cant transfer the files..
my problem is that i cant transfer the files...
when i connect my other phone a have got a prompt window, but in this case no prompt window, so i guess i need to mount it
but even with mounting i can understand where and how to transfer the files
10x!
update :
