I think I have a unique problem here. I tried to install the Holo Blur Rom using bootstrap. After I flashed it my bootup is looping and all attempts to get into Recovery mode are fail.
When I do the Power+Vol+ I get a screen with Android on it's back and the ! but nothing ever happens. I have also tried getting into the Bootstrap menu but that doesnt work either, it goes into boot up.
Do you think there is a way to save my phone still?
- Bootloader is unlocked
- Rooted
##EDIT##
I figured it out, I did not know you had to press Pwr+ Vol+ Vol- all at once. I thought it was just Pwr+ Vol+ only. Thanks!

With an unlocked bootloader, you should use CWM or Touch Recovery, nothing else as these custom roms need one or the other to install.
Hi,
I'm very new to rooting and such and only followed guides a read forum posts to get to where I am now.
My phone is rooted with stock ROM and SU, the bootloader is unlocked but no S-OFF (don't think it's possible on the mini 2 yet anyway). The new OTA update last night installed when I got home and charged my phone, then the phone just shut off and every time I tried to boot it would go straight into TWRP without showing splash screen or bootloader (even when holding power and the volume down button). When it's in this state the touch screen doesn't work and the power button only locks the phone. Holding power + vol down in this state doesn't do anything.
I have to let the power drain completely to get the phone to boot back up but it immediately boots back into recovery and then I can use ADB to force the bootloader to appear, but when I flashed the stock recovery that I found in these boards, it messes up the screen and all it shows is static with some artifacts. I have to let the power drain again to get back into the bootloader, and from the bootloader I can get the android OS to boot but I'd like to fix this completely.
I guess I should also mention that even after flashing the stock recovery the phone will still boot back into TWRP after I let the power drain so I think that means that the stock recovery isn't taking?
The twrp problem you mentioned is known, hope it'll be fixed soon. Are you sure you typed the right command to flash stock recovery? Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img?
If you get stuck, the combination is power button and volume up, not volume down...

Unfortunately I was using the wrong ADB command, I was typing "fastboot boot recovery.img". This seems to have fixed the problem so far but I have yet to try rewriting TWRP back to the phone and I probably won't until theres a fix or unless I need to.
Thank you for your help.

I had the same problem. It happens when I reboot with my phone when charging.
You can reboot your phone by holding vol up+power button.
Trying to update GPE to the latest OTA 5.1.
Unfortunately when I enter stock recovery to flash the OTA I am greeted with "no command" underneath a green robot.
I power down, hold volume down when restarting, into bootloader, select recovery and it loads the above.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
I have tried the methods described online, hold volume up and pressing the power button but the no command/robot remains on the recovery screen. I am running a newly flash GPE 5.0.1 stock image.
Anyone have any idea or seen this before. I can get to the bootloader menu and can select recovery, it then boots to a robot and "no command" message.
I have tried holding up volume and pressing power as suggested on other sites, this does nothing. If I keep pressing power the phone just ends up rebooting.
No matter what I do I can enter the recovery menu.
Frsutrating as I wanted to flash an OTA.
Ps. Is this because I am s-off and/or have an unlocked bootloader?

Re-install stock recovery, firmware or RUU then try the OTA update.
@maritimesbob Reflash the right stock recovery from fastboot
Ok, here's where I am at.
I flashed GPE stock 5.0.1 using the conversion method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
As my phone was originally sense based. As this is a stock rom, with stock recovery I thought I should be ok, as it flashes recovery, radio, firmware, system etc,
When accessing recovery I get the robot and no command.
I managed to find a copy of the 5.0.1 gpe stock recovery, and tried flashing that, I appears to have got a little further, now I have the robot with an exclamation mark.
No matter what method of keys, volume up and whatever, I cannot get into recovery to flash an OTA. I was hoping to upgrade to 5.1
Would an unlocked bootloader and being s-off cause recovery to be locked out, if indeed it is locked out?
My nexus 6 had been auto update/upgrade from android 6.x to android nougat 7 a few week ago.
So, after reboot my nexus can't boot to home screen.

2. Press & hold the Volume down button. While holding Volume down, press & hold the Power button until the phone turns on. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow around it.
3. Press the Volume down button until you highlight "Recovery mode."

1. Go here, https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
2. Download this, https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/shamu-nbd90z-factory-92e7bb05.zip
3. Power off phone, hold down power+volume down, boot into bootloader
4. Extract contents of zip to your computer
5. Flash fresh install of Android on your phone
Actually do this instead now that i've thought about it.
1. Go here, http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
2. Download the latest version of Nexus Root Toolkit (v2.1.9 as of writing this)
3. Install onto your PC
4. Use NRT to Flash Stock + Unroot
I use NRT all the time when wanting to flash beta images from Google. Never had an issue with it.

That's what I was gonna tell him, but it won't work if his bootloader is locked, or if he could just flash the recovery through fastboot and side load the OTA from there

Maybe i don't know this just because my bootloader has been unlocked since the day i got my phone.
But i would imagine that google's STOCK image would be flashable, even with a locked bootloader...
But if it's not, then that sucks.
But NRT has the option to Root+Recovery from the fastboot/bootloader...But once again, not sure if you need to be bootloader unlocked before that will work.
I guess you have nothing to lose trying and seeing what happens.
If he holds down the three button salute, it will take him to the bootloader where he can run fastboot OEM unlock to unlock his device then flash just as long he has unlockable in developers settings checked.

Hi, I don't know about bootloader lock or unlock.
But I'm a normal user , just use my nexus as normal user ( original from factory + update + upgrade + reset sometime ).
Is this mean bootloader lock ? sir.

Hi, I can't see any picture except these photos.
Well, that's puzzling. I've just restarted my N6 to be sure of my facts, and there is clearly a screen before the four dancing icons you show in your first picture. The very first thing that the phone shows on boot is a pure black screen with "Google" in big white letters in the centre, with (on my unlocked phone) the picture of an unlocked padlock at the bottom.
Are you saying that you don't see this?
=============
And while we wait for the answer to the question above, please try this:
- Power off the Nexus 6 completely.
- Next, press and hold Volume Down, Volume Up and Power simultaneously – don’t release the buttons until Fastboot Mode menu appears.
Note that this is not what you've already tried - this should get you into Bootloader mode, whereas you described the Recovery procedure in your first post. Does this procedure get you any screen? If so, please describe what you see.
(Further edit: just noticed that biggiesmalls657 suggested this on the first page, but I think that pratchaya appears too inexperienced to know what you suggested).

You guys are incorrect
This isn't possible unless the ROM starts and he can check OEM unlock in the developer options
And he can flash the OTA file with a locked bootloader but he has to have a working recovery
Have you tried a Hard Factory Reset?

I just said that!
Edit: Did you notice force closes before all this happened? Lots of force closes when doing a factory data reset sometimes means it's hardware with the internal storage. If you can't boot into Android to check OEM unlock button and fastboot doesn't allow you to flash while locked then I am not sure then.

The stock recovery is crappy as it's rough to get in unless you try lots of combos.

What if he were to select the factory mode in the bootloader menu? I know that trying to access the stock recovery is a pain sometimes. OP what do you see when you select Recovery Mode?

AFAIK the stock recovery of the Mi A2 is only capable of OTA updating via Android One. If you want to do other things with it, you must install a custom recovery which should also be capable of OTA updating.

In stock recovery ("no command" displayed) press power + volume up, this will show stock recovery menu (which is IMHO nearly useless except for factory reset, which can be made from Android or fastboot too).
I have pressed power+ volume+ , but it shows no command

Same issue here. In recovery mode it shows "No Command"
HOWEVER, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET THE OTA UPDATE!!!
This means that the stock recovery has got wiped off. How do I get the stock recovery back?

Press power then immediately vol+ buttons to get into recovery menu. It's about timing you press between those buttons,. For me sometimes can take several time trial before success, in other time it enter menu immediately.
