Hi,
I've made a huge mistake when flashing a stock image back onto my nexus 6, I was on Chroma Rom with TWRP recovery, I'd dropped my phone which I am claiming for on my insurance, the phone still works but the screen is cracked, because of the repairs I wanted to ensure that my phone was back running stock. When flashing recovery I stupidly forgot to reflash stock recovery before re-locking the bootloader. My phone is refusing to boot into android, and I can't unlock the bootloader because of the developer option introduced in Android 5.0.
Please somebody tell me there is a way around this, and that I haven't bricked my phone.
Thanks in advance.
Please disregard this thread. I managed to get out of the bootloop by using TWRP, I got could not mount errors every previous time I tried it, but it worked the latest time.

Hi Guys
Ever since i did the stock 4.4.2 update my phone has become unusable (being out of warranty I decided to take matters into my own hands)
I rooted my One (M7) and flashed TWRP recovery onto it with success, from there I wiped it and tried to install a custom 4.3 ROM. TWRP flagged up the install with another 'success' and told me to reboot the phone. After the reboot it got stuck on the HTC splash screen and after frustration I hard reset the phone thinking I could just try installing another ROM, wrong!
I can't get into recovery, when I select it the phone attempts to start recovery and then reboots and gets stuck on the HTC splash screen again, I can't do anything other than get into fastboot at the moment.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm new to this and although I have a pretty decent computer knowledge I've always left my mobile stock. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm using TWRP 2.6.3.0 and the rom is called 'Stock w Goodies 2.10' found here .
Sorry I'm not at home at the moment but I'll update this later when I'm able to post the fastboot results.
Hi everyone, I'm having a weird issue since this morning and could not solve it yet, maybe someone can help me.
Basically I tried to dirty flash the new nightly of CM12.1 using TWRP 2.8.6.0 and it got stuck. After rebooting the device I could not get to twrp anymore (strangely) and then I tried to reflash it (two different versions) with no success.
With my device being in this state (without booting into OS and with no recovery access) I had to download the stock 5.0.2 for the XT1068 and flash it using fastboot. It can now boot up normally into stock ROM and restored the stock recovery, but now any custom recovery I flash it does not work. I had two different results on two versions of twrp:
2.8.5.0 - After flashing it and trying to access it the device shows the "unlocked bootloader" screen and then reboots itself and goes to the ROM without even getting into TWRP.
2.8.6.0 - After flashing it and trying to access it the device goes to the "unlocked bootloader" screen and freezes there. I have then to hold the power button for a long time (about 1,5 min) and then the device boots the stock ROM.
Anyone can give any idea of what I can do? I even tried to lock and unlock the bootloader again, flash CWM, flash TWRP and nothing. At least the device is booting, so it is not a urgency, but any help is appreciated!
----------------------------
I got it, a stupid reason for all issues I was having. The issue was with my router, that was set to use a internal firewall which was screwing up a lot of my downloads, and the ROM and TWRP files just got into this issue.
After reconfiguring my router everything worked out, which make me fell stupid for not thinking about this before hahaha, but at least it is fixed
Thanks for everyone who took a time to read this and sorry for any inconvenience!

If you haven't got TWRP recovery installed, there is no fix.
Hey, I was recently using the Nexus Experience ROM and ran into issues with my mobile data not working. So, I decided to go back to 4.4.4 and using TWRP I ran a backup from August and it asked me if I wanted install superSU and I installed that and it rebooted and its stuck on Preparing device. its loops from the motorola boot screen to preparing device over and over. I think ive bricked the phone. any help on how I can fix this. thanks
Hi Folks
Hope someone can help. Any issue with my mothers phone of all people
I bought her a new MOTO G2 last year unlocked the bootloader rooted and installed TWRP so I could install certain apps on it.
Today she said her phone was not working so I checked it out. It boots with the motorola start up and then just a blank screen . I tried a factory reset same thing. So I thought ,might as well try a ROM. I flashed 3 ROM's via TWRP the last one been minimal O2, I also flashed CM12 and I also flashed the stock rom all via TWRP as I can not use fastboot as the device it is not recognized by the computer
When I flash the ROM's and GAPPS with CM12 it just stays on a continues load screen . The CM12 logo, likes its loading to boot, it just never changes and the same for minimal OS.
So I flashed stock rom and same as before it loads past the boot up screen and then a blank screen
I can not flash stock via fastboot as my computer is not recognizing it so I was wondering if any one ever encountered an issue like and how they got around it as I am at a complete loss now. I have plenty of rooted phones over the last few years the latest been my G4 and I am yet to see a problem like
Any help would begreatly appreciated Thanks folks
