When I launched the update, my Nexus rebooted, installed the update...and showed me an Android on its back with a red exclamation mark (this one, I believe).
I restarted the phone and things seemed ok...except I got the "Google play store stopped working" message (or whatever it is in English) every 10 seconds or so. So in the apps menu, I chose to uninstall the play store updates...which uninstalled the complete app!
So I reinstalled the Play store with its last apk...and I still have the same problem. The play store crashes immediately when I try to launch it.
What's the simplest way to get it to work? Ideally, I'd like to avoid a full flash.
The phone is stock (no root, locked bootloader, ...).
Boot into recovery and wipe cache. You could also try wiping the app cache from the ROM settings.
Hi,
Done that and no chance: "Google play store s'est arrêté"
Not sure but you could try erasing in fastboot mode but that may require an unlocked bootloader.
I suggest backing up your data, unlocking the bootloader, and restoring your data. Note that unlocking the bootloader will reset the phone.
Erasing what in fastboot?
Erase cache in fastboot mode; however, this may require an unlocked bootloader.
If you can't fix it, I suggest backing up your data, unlocking the bootloader, and reflashing a stock ROM.

Yep. "FAILED (remote: not supported in locked device)"
But I did it from the phone with no luck.
Tried reinstalling Google Play services and Google play store (from their apks). No luck either. In my notification tray, I have a "Unknown issue with the Google play services"
There is no way to manually flash just the OTA update, while keeping all my data?
The only solution I can think of is unlocking the bootloader which will also wipe the phone. If unlocking and rebooting doesn't fix things, a completely re-flash of a stock ROM may be the only solution.
FUCK!
Pardon my french but...I am (French). And pretty disappointed now.
If I got things right, I had to:
- unlock the bootloader

- restart the phone
- go (quickly, pressing IGNORE) through the setup phase after everything was wiped
- re-enable USB debug
- flash the MMB29Q with fastboot
But I can't finish the setup (because the app stops working since my system is corrupted somehow), so I can't enable USB debug.
EDIT: I was wrong: I don't need to activate the USB debug to use fastboot.
So I'm hopefully about to get a fresh system. I'm going to install TWRP.
I'm hesitating between:
- Stock system plus the xposed framework
- Stock ROM + custom Kernel (which one?)
- Custom ROM. It would have to be Marshmallow, fast and not power hungry.
Any advice?
USB debugging is not require for fastboot, it is required to issue ADB commands.

I just recently followed the manual way of flashing each .img individually like I usually do. Every fastboot flash was successful I followed instructions to a T and tried it several times. The phone boots and goes through the android is-upgrading its apps then after that I get a black screen with only the time, battery ad signal in the status bar and the back arrow in the navigation aarea, ant ideas what i grg wgon"

@Jonnyredcorn Did you restore from a backup? If so try from a new device
Why nt make a clean flash and see if it persists or not?
I had this exact same problem, and assuming that you did a dirty flash (did not erase your data), this is why it's being caused
After flashing Android L onto your device it is attempting to run the "First installation" screen but is in conflict with booting up normally as you have already completed the setup.
To confirm this = Try "unlocking and locking" your phone with the power button, you should see the install menu flash up briefly, for a second or less, if that's the case then you're in the exact same situation I was in
There was an old fix for this, but isn't very reliable now, it's worth a shot anyway
"adb shell am start -n com.google.android.setupwizard/.SetupWizardTestActivity"
This will force the installation overlay on top of the black screen allowing you to "setup" your phone again despite already doing it.
If this fails then your only hope is a fresh reinstall
I don't believe I did a dirty flash. I was under the understanding if I flash the factory images it did to clean white I didn't do a clean wipe and recovery prior to booting into the bootloader and flashing the factory images. I did not restore from a backup this is my first time going from KitKat to lollipop I do not see the installation screen pop up when unlocking and locking my phone

Ah okay then,
I'd suggest attempting a reinstall
If you modify the flash-all.bat removing the "-w" command, which wipes your phone, you'll be able to retain any data currently on the phone.
But as you've said you think you've wiped over it anyway, just complete another wipe over the device and flash it again, better yet download a fresh ROM first
OK so my issue was I forgot to flash the userdata.img which caused me to dirty flash. I just redid the whole thing and it's working it's working perfectly now thanks for all your help guys

So, I've bought a Turbo-x Breeze II 7' inch tablet, which comes with Android 4.0.3. Initially it came without Play Store, so I had to install it manually. It used to work perfectly, until about 2 months ago, when any app would just get stuck on "Downloading..." and never download. Same happens for updating apps.
I wouldn't be opening an XDA thread without doing some research. So, this is what I have tried so far:
-Updating Google Play and Google Play Services to their latest versions
-Reinstalling Google Play and Google Play Services
-Downgrading Google Play to an older version
-Factory Reset & format /data, /cache
-Signing in as a different Google user
-Clearing data of Download Manager
What else is there left to do? Any suggestions?

Here's what Google suggests: https://support.google.com/googleplay/troubleshooter/4592924?hl=en
I would suggest flashing GApps.zip again via Recovery

Thanks for the reply. I am not using a custom recovery though, so I can't flash anything.

Maybe you can boot up a recovery image from fastboot mode like this:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
and flash the GApps flashable zip from the recovery that is booted up on your phone.

No, I can't make it boot on custom recovery, because there is no custom recovery for that device out there.
Is there any way to flash Gapps from within Android? I think that might fix it.
(I do have root access)
Here you can see how my stock recovery looks like. You think I could flash it from here?

Hi, my friend's phone is having a annoying bug which I didn't even saw something like that.
He did a factory reset in his device, but after it booted it keeps showing the low storage warning.
The user storage still 12.07GB free, just ~900MB used.
Can't install any app from play store or apk. Sometimes the apps don't open and show as not installed, sometimes af reset, camera doesn't open, first time settings wizard doesn't open, settings and google play show as not installed when try to open.
This is really stranger and annoying, how can I fix it?
And also every time when the phone boots, it erases ART cache and reloads the apps.

But the phone is with bootloader locked, never unlocked, no root, no Xposed or custom recovery.
When wiping cache / dalvik it still the same, and everytime the phone boots, it clears magically(?) the dalvik cache

I'm not sure if you can Wipe Cache / Dalvik in Stock Recovery - if the option exists, try that. Alternatively, Android has become corrupt, and the most obvious solution is to wipe userdata and fastboot flash the latest Factory Firmware Image.

I tried to restore stock firmware 6 times but system wasn't installing, so I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, installed a custom rom then phone booted fine. Thanks
So I have a small problem that has giving me a headache the past few days. I got an old Nokia 6.1 from my mom & was asked to get the pictures & documents from it. I removed her pattern lock, because I was annoyed to use it all the time. A couple of days later, the phone has out of the blue a security pin. Which obviously no one knows, because no one configured it...
I spent hours looking different ways to extract the data or to bypass the lock & sofar I think I ran out of all the options.
Here is my current state & I would really appreciate some advice how to proceed.
1. Find my device:
The phone is on the list. But it shows that the last activity was on the 10th january & can't be reached it even though it's connected to the internet via my mobile data. Furthermore it seems that I wouldn't be able to unlock it anyways because it only gives me two options "Call the Phone" & "Set up secure & delete".
2. Installing Aroma to extract the data/remove lock files:
I can't do that because there is no custom recovery installed on the phone. Just the stock.
3. Installing a custom recovery:
I can't install/flash anything on the phone because the developer options, usb debugging & bootloader are not unlocked/enabled.
I came as far as being able to see my dive with adb on my pc, but I couldn't flash anything of it, because the signature fails.
I'm now posting this threar, to see if anybody has some advice for me, how I could get the pictures from the phone.
Thank you all in advance~

The door to any Android device is ADB.
You say

hence ADB obviously is fullly working, means it should be possible to pull out the data in question by means of ADB.
Hi, thank you for your answer, I have expressed myself wrong/mixed adb & fastboot up. What I wanted to say, is that I can see the device via fastboot. Unfortunately not over adb.

as you can also see in the screen
If I understood what I read, there is no way to access the phone like this, is that correct?
Is there anything else I can do?
The Phone itself gives me an option to "Apply Update from ADB". My knowledge about this stuff is barely anything. But is there a way for example I could install/update an android version/new system without losing the internal data? At that point I don't care about the phone working properly, as I would like to get the pictures from it & root + wipe everything from it.
push
As "Apply Update from ADB" implies this option is used to flash an OS's update provided by OEM/carrier: updating an OS doesn't affect user data stored on phone.
Have you ever tried to exit phone's fastboot mode by running Fastboot commands
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot
I ended up factory resetting the phone. This Thread can be closed
If you have usb debugging on. Then you can use ADB. You can try to mount user partition and you can copy that partition.
I tried installing the twrp recovery for it, and it did work but it had no access for the sd card nor the external sd card for some reason, but after some time it did work with an otg
So i had the supersu zip file on a flash card and tried installing it
It everything goes fine, until it finish and reboots to the system
Then this happens

And no matter how many times i click that reset, it happens, it's only gone when reinstalling the stock firmware, but then I'll need to install the recovery again......., sometimes after installing the TWRP recovery, it goes into a restart loop so i need any help please
If you are the getting the following error, "Verification Failed, unable to restart your device. The integrity verification has failed. You need to reset you device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data" on your Android Smartphone don't worry because together we can resolve the issue.

I did, in fact, i even reinstalled the stock image of the firmware because clicking "reset" simply doesn't work, also if i just flashed the TWRP without a root zip, it will go bootloop, i just wanna install a custom rom but looks like i need to root the device to do so, so i can pass the verification thing, but hey, thanks for caring.
