Hi everyone,
First time posting on this forum. I just got a Pixel 32GB from Fido (Rogers subsidiary). Since they included their own app in the default image, and that their build is one version late, I wanted to flash myself to the latest and greatest and start with a clean slate. I bought pixel for a reason...I don't want apps pre-installed other than stock apps.
So, I downloaded the latest, checked the checksum, unlocked the bootloader, ran ./flash-all.sh.
Here's where it gets complicated, see the error at the end:
Code:

I'm not sure how I can further check the unused partitions; cat /proc/partitions shows a LOT of /dev/sdaX and /dev/sdbX ...and its using dm-crypt fde so I don't really know how to go from there.
Thanks for any help!

I will say up front that you seem to have a bit more technical knowledge than me but here is my 2 cents, maybe a bad download, in the middle it said the archive was missing some items. I would download again and try it, it won't hurt.
Although if you did checksum I don't understand.
I had the same exact problem. I downloaded the newest ADB and fastboot and that fixed it for me. Hope this helps!
Thank you both for the quick response!

Seems you might just have the solution. I had two different packages with adb and fastboot (Archlinux + android-tools and the AUR version for android-sdk).
I'll clear that dependency messe and I'll retry a bit later..I'm willing to bet it is going to work now
I'll keep you posted. Thanks!

It worked. Thank you! The utility packages were outdated.

I also purchased my Pixel from Fido. I have not noticed any apps installed by Fido? What exactly did they install on yours?
edit n/m I'm in the wrong forum. sorry

I installed CM on my Nexus 3 and 10 without incident.
I unlocked and installed CM and clockwork recovery on my Nexus 5 but when I booted into CM, nothing happened except that the CM logo just spun until I turned the phone back off. I wanted to go back to the factory image but despite sudo fastboot devices showing that it was connected, sudo adb push [image].zip /sdcard/ I just got device not found.
I removed android-tools-adp and android-tools-fastboot and reinstalled thinking there might be a driver issue but that has not resolved the problem.
Looking for a way to get either the stock 4.4 or CM 11 working.

Unzip the stock image and use fastboot to flash each part individually.

I downloaded hammerhead-krt16m-factory-bd9c39de.tgz (md5sum: 3a7b6cb66f8ec20edf661aee2d73d3a4) from hammerhead-krt16m-factory-bd9c39de.tgz, which I assume is the download site from developers dot google dot com images#hammerheadkrt16m.
When I tried to send the files with fastboot yesterday, it just hung.
I downloaded everything again this morning and got a different md5sum (36aa82ab2d7d05ee144d18546565cd5f) and instead of trying to manually fastboot the files over I executed the script

I guess I had a corrupt download then. Thanks for the help.
Any idea why I could boot into Clockwork but CM just hung? Any additional things to try? Will CM boot without a SIM card?
On the plus side while messing around with trying to get this fixed, I stumbled on a way to get my new nvidia drivers working for the EVGA GTX650 I bought to power my twin 27" displays, so I guess that is also a plus!
same but now works
I just reinstalled recovery again and cm 11.
Hello,
Yesterday around midnight my phone suddenly stopped working. I wasn't using it, it was just sitting on my desk and had been for at least half an hour.
When I boot it, it stays stuck on the boot animation.
Until yesterday it was running a custom built version of CM12.1 (from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...unofficial-cm12-cmhammerhead-nexus-5-t2938502)
With a ElementalX-N5-4.09 kernel.
I tried:
Reflashing the ROM
Wiping and Reflashing the ROM
Wiping and Reflashing the ROM, without ElementalX
Wiping and Flashing an older version
Wiping and formating of user data too + Reflashing
complete reset by doing fastboot oem lock/unlock
flashing of the factory image of Android 6
Each time the result is the same.
When the phone was still running cyanogen I had adb while it was booting (that's no longer the case) and I saw nothing striking ... it would have one (pc) screen worth of log (logcat) and then nothing it would just stop.
I couldn't spot anything in kernel logs either (dmesg/last_kmsg).
The recovery is working fine ... I was able to start an ssh server and use it... it's just android that won't boot...
any idea to turn my expensive paperweight back into a phone?
*Update*
I flashed Ubuntu touch and it's working fine.. flashed back Android and it's been showing me the boot animation for 30 minutes now...
After flashing stock ROM, are you erasing userdata and flashing userdata.img?
I've been using the flash-all.sh script so yes.
Here is the output after flashing LMY48M (5.1.1):

After using the script, try booting into stock recovery and performing another factory wipe of data and cache.
Or, before the first boot, try erasing and reflash img userdata.img file, boot into recovery, wipe again, and boot.
I tried that and it didn't work ...
However ... I flashed a kitkat factory image (4.4.4 KTU84P to be precise) ... and it works ...
Tomorow I'll try 6.0 again.
Still not much progress.
Kitkat is working but with no service ...
In kernel logs I can see this kind of things:
Code:
<3>[ 24.333162] pil-q6v5-mss fc880000.qcom,mss: mba: Failed to locate mba.mdt

but I have no connectivity issue in ubuntu.
Also I noticed the hardware clock is set to 1970. I though this may be an issue.
I tried to set it to the correct date but it won't work:
Code:
localhost / # hwclock -w
hwclock: RTC_SET_TIME: Invalid argument
I tried this on a galaxy nexus and the hwclock is set at the correct date/time and the hwclock -w command works.

Seems to me you now own an Ubuntu Phone. :silly:
Are you on the latest bootloader? I have a silly idea but it just might work. Install multiROM on your phone and try to install a custom stock based marshmallow rom, either as a primary or as a secondary. Good luck!
I had a nexus 5 with a broken screen, I salvaged the motherboard and now have a fully functional nexus in my pocket.
I also salvaged the camera because it was doing slightly better shots.
The second phone has a broken screen but still working so it would be nice to have it run android too
However I wanted to turn it into a small server, and had already done so with a chroot trick ... but now I'm thinking Ubuntu touch might be better suited for that
I might try tge multiROM option but I'm not too optimistic about it.
btw the hwclock thing was nothing, the other n5 had its clock in 1970 too and the same error.

how to solved
Is the bootloader unlocked? Does it stay unlocked after rebooting into fastboot?
...i have the same issue, now i am looking for a working mainboard.... i think that you have emmc failure, your flash memory is dead and there is no software solution... sorry man...

no after reboot again lock
it's me EMMC chip problem ..?
Umm try flashing Twrp and then a custom rom!
Unlock ur bootloader 1st then flash twrp...
If the bootloader locks itself when the phone is rebooted, the emmc is damaged or defective.
SOLVED BY TRIAL. IN CASE ANYONE ELSE IS GETTING THE SAME ERRORS, DO THIS -->
1. OPEN THE image-walleye-opm1.1****.zip in winzip, winrar, 7z - and open the android-info.txt by notepad++ or noptepad and edit the "require version-bootloader=mw.8898-002.00***.*** to the one that is asked for in the cmd error log and rerun the flash-all.bat
Okay, Pixel 2 8.1 (unlocked). Tried flashing TWRP and install the Elemental X Kernel. Initially it rooted with Magisk but then I thought to go back to stock and Downloaded the factory image from Google and tried running the flash-all.bat, but am getting errors.
Please help guys, the phone is just hours old
The following errors is what I get --

You can't flash the latest firmware w/o updating the bootloader version. You'll have to either OTA or Sideload the latest update which will update the bootloader. The easiest way for now would be to download the first release firmware (8.0, Nov) for your device and flash to come out of this mess first. You can then do the OTA to upgrade to 8.1.

with the above method, I directly flashed 8.1 with Jan security update
The only caution I would add to this is, be careful not to re-lock the bootloader. You could literally brick your phone if an update trys to come down and install; or other modifications are made. Happy Modding!
HI All , I need some help . Since I did manage to get a new battery for my broken n5, I decided to get onboarded with LOS17.1 .
Managed to get the 3.4 TWRP HH from @z3DD3r and followed the repartition process. However I am not able to enable adb, nor can I abd sideload , everytime I try to sideload I get an error 7.
Furthermore I cannot mount data partition , nor does the OTG cable work i.e. nothing comes up in my comp. I did install Google drivers / CWM USB drivers, and I do see Google nexus ADB interface popping up in the device manager(win10) however nothing gets listed as a storage/MTP device. I did try searching but not being able to get the solution . I am not able to move beyond this .
N5 doesnt have a sdcard slot either . Can any one advise how to get the LOS zip and gaps into the storage ? Only thing which is working is TWRP HH recovery from @z3DD3r. I will appreciate any help . Let me know if I need to post this in another thread. Thank you
I am not able to mount /cache and /system - it says failed when I wipe or format them .
I only have /data which can be mounted . I have searched and have seen that its to do with partition tables. Any way to get back the partition table done ?
I have checked the following links -

Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Check "Cache" -> Repair or Change File System -> Repair File System
If that doesn't help, do it:
Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Check "Cache" -> Repair or Change File System -> Change File System
If your cache partition does not have ext4, set ext4.
If your cache has ext4, change it to FAT and restore it to ext4 when finished.
If something succeeds, repeat the steps for the system partition.
Good luck with the repair. :good:
Did You manage to find the solution?
Thanks , however with TWRP I get error 16 unable to repair system , same thing with cache , neither can I change the filesystem , since I think the partitions dont exist

Nope, need a way to repartition as per stock .
I tried looking into various places and used the following site to get into the partition table using parted .
https://iwf1.com/how-to-re-partitio...ll-options-included-change-size-fs-type-etc/2
I followed instructions and found that cache, crypto and system partition were missing . Created the partitions and also managed to change the fs for two of them .
I referred to this page as well to know what partitions are available and what are their usual sizes.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/go...guide-repartition-nexus5-to-increase-t3509880
After all - I did a flash-all , it went through luckily . However somehow I am stuck in bootloop. Then I tried flashing twrp again , and my partitions are gone . Parted doesnt recognize my disk at all .
So close by yet so far

Finally managed to get into and redo parted , changed user fs to ext4. Ran flash all - boot.sig, recovery.sig, vendor img missing , however it ran successfully .
Tried to reboot , it booted up but got stuck at boot , the android 6 factory boot animation came up , but got stuck and switched off . Any workaround ?
Went into parted again - removed userdata partition and redid i.e. made a partition and changed the filesystem to ext4, then came out and flash-all stock , stuck in bootloop , is there any problem with the installation ?

Finally got all partitions working, being able to wipe all partitions through twrp.
All partitions are mounting
Factory image not booting, so trying crdroid 7.1.2
Installs pretty quickly the 350mb file.
However stuck with Google logo, not moving to the boot animation.
Any help will be appreciated.
Need to check power button , since that is also another issues which N5 users have faced and boot loop or getting stuck at boot solution has been replacing the power button/ switch
Closing the thread - Motherboard issue , thanks everyone for your help.
