Alright. This is a 100% stock Nexus S- nothing "development" wise was done to the device, no system tools installed that could cause issues, basically nothing but basic apps loaded on the device.
It just started today. I was working on my bf's Vibrant (another, more successful story) and grabbed my Nexus and hit the power button and it did not turn the screen back on. Holding the power button down did not reboot the device, and none of the buttons would light up or function.
So, I pulled the battery. Now every time I try to boot, it hits the "Google" screen and stays put. I left it alone for 5 minuets hoping it would finish booting and nothing. The soft buttons will light up, and if I touch them they register the touch but it does not help the phone to boot.
I do know that the phone was basically dead right before this happened, and at first I thought it was just dead. However, its been on the charger for at least 30 minuets- which should have given it enough of a charge to boot up, and still nothing.
What could cause this issue?
I did install a couple of new applications today, and I know the market updated a bunch of them but they're all apps that I've had on several phones (minus the two new ones today) and have never had an issue with any of them. The two new ones I downloaded were OS Monitor, and a 2G/3G toggle for hopes of improving some battery life.
But those are the only two things I've done differently. I've only been using the phone for a week but I haven't had any problems at all, before this.
Now- if worst comes to worst I can seem to get into the bootloader, and through that, stock recovery. So I can try to do a factory reset and wipe cache but without a backup I really kinda hope thats a last resort.
Please help, and let me know if you need any more information.
Thank you!
I understand that you're fully stock which I assume means you have a locked bootloader (everything I say from here on out assumes as such)? First, I'm going to also assume that you didn't update to 2.3.3? If not, then follow the steps in this guide to boot into a custom recovery and from there go to backup and restore and do a NANDroid backup. Now go to mounts and storage and mount USB storage (or whatever its called, don't have my phone right here). Plug your phone into your comp and copy over whatever you'd rather not lose from your SDcard (just in case you have to wipe). Now download the 2.3.3 update from here and put it on the root of your SD card. Now go back and flash this. Reboot and see if you're golden. If so, great, if not try a factory reset.
If that doesn't work go through the steps again to boot into a custom recovery, you might have to unlock your bootloader and wipe all your data (again) and restore your backup and try doing a factory reset with that. Don't worry about unlocking the bootloader, it can be relocked with a simple command and it won't wipe anything to relock it.
Here is the command just in case:
Code:
fasboot oem lock
I got all the way to having clockwork recovery booted up on the phone, but nothing would mount. Everything gave me an error, and factory reset froze...
I don't think there is anything I can even do from here, is there?
Nexus 5 here and tried both CWM and TWRP and each have the same issue. It just sits there and does nothing when doing a wipe cache. I have seen others having the same thing and the answers are it much be your device. Then if you power it off it loses the IMEI and anything network related and has to be reverted all the way back to stock. Very annoying really and more that this gets ignored and the threads closed.

It takes around 5min to wipe cache, dont interrupt it.

I've noticed that now, should be a sticky or something. I myself am not used to it taking more than a few seconds on any other device.
Anyone know why it takes so long to wipe cache on this? I'm like Grand and seeing it only take a few seconds.

Yup, this should be in the sticky guide. I am on android since the days of G1, and even I was stumped for a bit. Thankfully I did not loose anything. But yes, I did not boot into Android. I just rebooted into bootloader by long pressing power to reset and again wiped cache. This time I decided to wait it out, and there it was. Took much longer than usual to wipe cache with CWM.
Oh crap, I tried wiping the cache from the stock recovery and it just sat there forever, so I powered it down and rebooted it before reading this thread (I've done this on many Android devices and it never took this long...). I encountered problems with Google Play Services when it started back up so I decided to do a factory reset, but it didn't seem to start when doing it through the settings so I started it in recovery (format data/cache). And now it is just sitting here, as it has for the last 10 minutes... I'm starting to get worried. What should I do?
EDIT: right after I wrote this, the factory reset finished. Am rebooting now.
EDIT 2: booted up fine, with everything working. Wiping took an ungodly amount of time compared to previous versions of Android.
I had the same problem.
The wipe cache procedure (from stock recovery) took forever and I powered off my phone (big error).
Since then it has started behaving in a crazy way.
I re-entered the stock recovery mode and selected the factory reset option, but it didn't succeed signalling "can't access /cache partition".
Evrything followed by eternal bootloops.
I repeated the procedure many times and at last everything was OK (after many attempts, the factory reset procedure worked, even if it took SO long)
Remember: be patient. Or you will screw your phone.
Indeed, patience is the key

I started the cache wipe, thought the phone got hung up, and powered it off. Powered on and all network-related settings were missing, /sdcard partition was empty. Then I went searching and found this thread. Based on what I read, I decided to try the wipe cache again and this time I waited for it to finish. Rebooted the phone and all is back to normal.
For me it's takes on wiping cache only few seconds on CWM touch latest version recovery.
i was frightened when i found this thread, after my n5 seemed to be stuck flashing cache....but after a very long time (about 10 minutes, not sure) phone finished wiping....i was so relieved!!phewwwww

In future if you face the same issue kindly,don't powered it off, then it will take more time in factory settings. I tried without switching it off and its all done in flash of time. might be i was luckey:fingers-crossed:

This is the worst thing I have ever heard. I have had plenty of devices and for some reason the nexus line have the weirdest issues.
But I do love this devices. Well will wait and see if my stuff works again.
Waited like 4 minutes on second attempt and yes it came back. Wow!!!

Agreed! It took mine about 7-10 minutes (much longer than I expected) -- those who are waiting hours must have some other problem.

I ran into the same problem today - gave up after 20 minutes and rebooted the phone. Now /cache could not be mounted and thus no sdcard either.
Unzipped the latest factory image (KTU84P) and did a
Code:
fastboot flash cache cache.img
which was successful.
rebooted into recovery and now wipe cache took seconds.
So the cache partition can become corrupt, but this seems to fix it.
Luckily I had an unlocked bootloader - otherwise factory reset would have been the only option.
It can take up to half an hour (maybe more)

On my phone, it took nearly half an hour. Plug it in, and be very very very patient.
Ha! Well I'm glad I found this thread. Was stuck on it for 10 min and almost powered down. Waited another 5 min and it finished.
Soooooo looooooong
My /cache wiping took about 30 mintues. Luckyly, i found this post and wait until it ended.
I just experience the same thing, only then with my Note 3. I was waiting for about 15 minutes and I thought it was stuck at formatting the cache CWM. Luckily I found this thread and I waited before I rebooted. It finished in about 20 to 30 minutes.
I just had to thank you.

Anyone else had issues performing factory resets? My Nexus 5 seems incapable of completing it. So far I have tried doing a factory reset from the settings menu 4 times. Every single time it locks up on the erasing step. I don't mean it takes a little longer. I have let it sit for almost half an hour and the little android robot sits there taunting me.
Every time I have had to manually go into the bootloader and sideload a factory image, which works fine.
Any ideas why this problem is occurring? Faulty memory maybe?
Same issue here, phone is getting nice and warm but the little robot just sits there twiddling his antennae. Forced restart either normally or into recovery mode lands me right back on the erasing screen, looks like nothings going to happen unless I intervene another way. Any ideas?
Try pushing the system.img using fastboot. Might be best to start over and do a clean install.
Have you tried doing a factory reset in recovery instead?

Same problem
I have the same problem with the loop at the erasing screen. It will not go into recovery so that I can fix it. I tried flashing the Stock Rom again but no use. Please help me or at least give me some pointers what to try next.

I'm completely stock and I want to reset all so I do factory reset from menu setting, backup & reset
And since, my nexus stucked in "erasing...."
I have tried flashing factory image according to this guide, succeeded, but then still stucked in android logo with endless progress bar (but this time without "erasing....")
Need help how to restore it
All I want is to factory reset
How did you actually sideload factory image?

ADB sideload: place the rom you want to flash in the fastboot folder and in the phones recovery select adb sideload, then on the pc in cmd type: adb sideload namerom.zip and it will start flashing.

Exactly the same problem here. Nexus 5 running 4.4.2 kept powering off randomly roughly once a day. Attempted a factory reset and it got stuck at erasing. Having unlocked the bootloader and following the steps to unlock and reboot, I have a progress bar with the animated android icon, apparently stuck at the same stage, but without the "erasing" caption.
As far as I'm concerned, I can nothing with the phone at present short of taking it back, though they'll likely take issue with my attempts to rectify myself

I'll add that I've also tried the Nexus Root Toolkit v1.8.0 to flash stock. Appears to go fine, recreating the file system and loading software, then as soon as it gets to the "erasing cache" step it just sits there for hours and makes no progress.
I know I probably shouldn't promote toolkits but you can always try this. Seems to have worked for a lot of people.

Same thing happened to me yesterday. My N5 is rooted, running stock rom and recovery. I had some corrupted app date showing in Titanium that I could not remove that were causing a Play store issue for me. I backed up my phone with TB and ran a factory reset in settings. The phone was stuck on the 'erasing' screen for maybe 20 minutes, so I put the phone in fastboot and from there back into recovery. This took me back to the 'erasing' screen to my dismay. I put the phone down and started searching for a solution online, but then I noticed after about 7 minutes the erase process had finally finished on its own and the phone rebooted normally again.
Based on what others are saying in this thread it appears the factory reset process via settings or stock recovery can hang sometimes. If you power off, start the phone in fastboot and select recovery again, I'm guessing the factory reset process restarts and hopefully it will then work properly the next time, like it did for me.
Well when I did a factory reset from settings, it took nearly 20-25 minutes to finish. The next time I did a reset, it completed within 10 minutes
I guess this problem occurs randomly.
Be patient
My guess is that you just need to be patient -- my device took nearly 45 minutes to reset. It seems to me that the time required is proportional to either the amount of data or the number of files you have on the device. My device had a mix of large files (such as musics and photos) and many many small files (sensor data log files), so it's hard for me to say which of those contributed more to the long reset time.

This worked for me too. On the initial 'Return to factory defaults' it got stuck for about 45 minutes. I then follow the advice above:
- Put the N5 in Fastboot by pressing: Vol. Up + Vol. Down + Power
- Select: Recovery and press on Power to proceed
- Phone reboots, still into the 'Androidman' but it seems that the 'Return to factory defaults' also restarts.
- Wait about 10 minutes and the Phone powers down automatically. Upon startup you enter the 'Initial configuration menu' so the factory reset has been completed.
Still stuck on Erasing screen, running out of options
Hello,
I am a newbie with zero developer knowledge and received my Nexus 5 in the mail yesterday. I liked the phone specs and that is the only reason I got it. I left it alone while it charged up and the first thing I did once it was finished was perform a Factory Reset (it was a "like new" phone so I just wanted to be safe) and have been stuck on the Erasing screen ever since. Pressing Vol- and Power button does take me to the bootloader screen, however, any option I choose by pushing the power button, such as Recovery Mode, sends me back to the Erasing screen. Pushing Vol+, Vol-, and Power shuts the phone off completely. Holding the Power button down does nothing more than restart the phone into the Erasing screen. I have also let the phone die twice and as soon as it has enough juice to come back on, it goes straight to the Erasing screen. Everything on the phone is stock and it is completely unrooted. The bootloader screen also indicates it is unlocked. I have attempted to flash it as per instructions I have found on here but I am unable to download the stock factory images. It gets to about 90% before the install fails and I have tried to install three times already. I do have the 15 Second ADB installed, however. I assumed the install of the factory images failed because I don't have WiFi and I'm running completely off of limited 3G data (I live in the middle of no where with no high speed internet to speak of). So in lieu of all that I have attempted, is there ANYTHING at all that can be done to get the phone off of this Erasing screen? Or do I just need to try and return it because it's useless at this point? I did at first let the process run but it's now been 24 hours stuck on this Erasing screen with no improvement. I'm fairly certain it runs KitKat 4.4.0.
16 GB black Nexus 5 on ART with stock recovery, stock kernel and rooted using CF's autoroot and bootloader unlocked. The phone was running perfectly for the past 3 months.
Now it has started to randomly reboot all the time and goes into bootloops which take a while to recover from. It seems that the power button is super sensitive. Even touching it mildly brings up the power off option. After reboot the phone went back to Dalvik runtime from ART.
I've been running Dalvik every since. I've uninstalled most apps. But the phone keeps on rebooting again and again just randomly in the middle of tasks. After this the phone goes into a boot loop until it boots successfully. It's almost impossible to use the phone right now, because the reboots just happen more and more frequently.
I've tried wiping the cache, uninstalling apps etc. Nothing has helped.
Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.

Sounds to me like a hardware issue-as if the button is partially depressed at all times. You could try popping the back off and blasting around the button with compressed air. Another option would be to RMA.

Thanks for the quick response. I don't want to mess around with the hardware of the phone. I think I will go the RMA route.
Do you have any suggestions in terms of the best way to backup the phone? Do you think a factory/data reset of the phone might help before RMAing?
I'd factory reset just as a precaution as your phone probably has some personal info on it

Upload photos, music and videos to drive, dropbox or to your computer with usb. Then depending if you're rooted or not helium or titanium backup for app data. Me personally I'd just flash all files cause it doesn't take long to do so. Good luck and hopefully your new Nexus gives you better luck
Hey lads,
I got a really weird problem and I've tried nearly everything I can think of. I had EMUI 2.3(b121sp06) and I tried the online OTA update to b307 if I remember right(was automatically suggesting the update) and at the update screen it loaded to about 99% and then stopped. Said not to press power while on this screen but obviously it wasn't going to finish. So I reset the phone and it started the "recovery loop", so basically keep trying to apply the update. I had to flash CWM to break out and flashed the whole system by hand(recovery,system,boot,cache,cust and userdata img files) and it starts up but it keeps resetting and seemingly it's random. Android boots up, I don't touch the phone--> boom reset. Weird thing is it even does it in recovery.
If I really want to explain the problem it's like as if my finger got stuck on the power button(that naturally made me think that the button might be f*cked), but booting into fastboot and not having resets cleared my suspicion. What I also noticed is that every time it boots up it doesn't recognize the sim card and I have no signal or whatsoever.
Tried multi tool unbricking method -> doesn't work
Tried factory reset from stock recovery(had to be fast so it doesn't reset before) ->doesn't work
Tried wiping dalvik cache and factory reset from CWM ->doesn't work
Tried killing battery by letting it keep resetting -> battery drained, reset loop stopped ->put the phone on charger->reset loop started again
I have no f*cking clue how can I get out of this, will keep trying though. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
Hi
Did you try to remove the Sd Card ? Honor 6 reboot is often due to faulty SD Card.
Which model do you have ? L04 ?
B307 upgrade sure ?
Seb
Yes, that was my first idea, still does it though. I have the L02 and I'm not positive it was b307, but it started with 3, could be b303 if there is one.
I don't know for L02 but for L04 there is a Full ROM that you can flash with the three buttons method. (Vol+,Vol-, power and put the ROM in /dload folder on the SD card).
Maybe there is such thing for L02 ?
There is, but as I said the phone restarts even in recovery. It's like the phone restarts every 30 secs except for fastboot.
if it's not SD card or internal flash problem so, it seems to be hardware related to me (
Would make sense but it occurred only after I tried OTA. Would be really surprised if that killed that hardware :-/

I've tried as quickly as I can when the phone (nokia x) is on, then I stop> uninstall I consider potentially cause this problem (facebook, whatsapp, uc browser) and then it managed to prevent the continuous restarts. but problems arise even though the application had me uninstall and then I restart the phone. and it is back again, I uninstalled the app that has remained with the error settings and restart repeatedly. who knows what else : '(

I have no f*cking clue how can I get out of this, will keep trying though. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Did you follow the guide here?

In the past my battery lost it's endurance pretty much. Furthermore I've read that a defective battery causes lots of weird behaviours on our Honor 6, which was the same to mine.
In my case a replacement of the battery worked well, to get my Honor 6 back to life:

It's not that difficult and lasts approx. 30-45 mins. Spare Batteries are available for 6 - 10 bucks on ebay or directly from the chinese internet stores.

It's really important that we use original chargers for the health of our device.
