Help! Am I screwed? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Nexus 6 - I unlocked and installed twrp recovery deleted oem files but then relocked and now phone is flashing the twrp recovery splash screen and it goes no further. What the hell do I do now? I can do fastboot but can't unlock in fastboot because it says to allow enable unlock in Developer options.

Does android boot?

I am at the bootloader, from there if I start it simply goes to the twrp recovery splash screen just flashing every couple of seconds and I'm stuck there.

Use "fastboot reboot" from bootloader. Same?
What about "fastboot reboot recovery"?

fastboot reboot does the same, fastboot reboot recovery does nothing

You cannot get Into recovery at all? No way?

If I hit recovery from bootloader the twrp recovery splash just flashes

OK. Yep I think you're screwed

Can you use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/fix-fix-qhusbbulk-cm12-t3059518 in order to flash factory images using RSD Lite?

The command is:

fastboot erase cache

Custom Recovery help

I used the CM app and Windows to unlock, and root my ATT One. I've tried several times to use Flashify to flash TWRP./ It will load and get me to the TWRP main menu, but it freezes and I have to hold volume down and power to get to recovery to reboot. Am I stuck with CWM?

Nexus Developer images.
I've wiped cache, formated userdata.
It boots with an unlocked bootloader, but when you lock it it just bootloops.

Did you use the flash all.sh or flashall.bat? Cause that doesnt work! You need to flash the system images manually! Fastboot flash system system.img and so forth! Extract the images from the .zip

Send it in for repair. With no system or recovery, and a locked bootloader, there's nothing that can be done.

If you use automated software to flash or alter the OS or parts of it you don`t understand whats going on and if something goes wrong you will not be able to solve the issue because you don`t know what went wrong

Some more info please: do you have stock rom, recovery, kernel and are you rooted?
If the answer is yes to the above just:
- fastboot erase system
- fastboot flash system system.img
- data factory reset in recovery
- reboot and you`re done.

I always use the erase command, but i guess format will work too. The outcome should be the same And if you flash userdata it will erase userdata before the flash automaticaly, so no need to erase/format.

Sorry my friend for a new question but I have many doubts about the factory image flash, I'm a newbie
I would flash also the original bootloader and now my question is this: after the flash the original bootloader and after reboot-bootloader (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008 method 2) I have a locked bootloader or unlocked bootloader? If the bootloader is locked might I end up in a boot loop with the following flash (always method 2)?

First you have to unlock the bootloader and then you can flash the factory image in parts (system, boot, recovery, cache).
Fastboot command in cmd and bootloader/fastboot mode: fastboot oem unlock. Only flash the bootloader and radio if you don`t have the correct BL/radio installed, if you have there os no need to flash it again.

Extract the rom and flash the bootloader first (fastboot flash bootloader namebootloader.img) and fastboot reboot-bootloader, then the radio and also reboot and then the rest in one go. Good luck an if you have doubts/problems post it here. Plenty of helpfull members around
But after flash and reboot bootloader can I flash the other factory image parts? The original bootloader that I just flashed not is locked?

Once you unlock the BL it stays unlocked unless you lock it manualy. Even if you flash a new bootloader.

Can I flash directly a no force encryption boot.img like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61203588&postcount=913?
Then
- fastboot erase system
- fastboot flash system system.img
- fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
- fastboot erase boot
- fastboot flash boot "no force encryption boot".img
- fastboot erase recovery (optional if I want the original recovery)
- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (optional if I want the original recovery)
- fastboot erase cache
- fastboot flash cache cache.img
- data factory reset in recovery (it's necessary?)
- reboot system.
Then...root with WugFresh toolkit...
It's correct?

- You don`t have to erase boot and recovery
- Yes you can flash a non encryped kernel but you`ll have to factory reset after you flashed and the N6 is booting or your storage will say its 32GB.
- Rooting is easiest by placing the latest 2.8.7.1 TWRP recovery in the sdk-platform-tools folder, reboot in bootloadermode and fastboot boot namerecovery.img and boot up and flash the latest superSU.zip (Beta 2.49 afaik) or use a toolkit if want to.
