Can anybody help my out, because I somehow deleted my OS in my rooted Nexus 6
I tried to use the Nexus Root Toolkit to flash it to stock, but it telling that it can't load it.
load_file: could not allocate 1785963604 bytes
error: cannot load 'C:\Program Files (x86)\WugFresh Development\Nexus Root Toolk
it\data\Factory_Images\shamu\-lyz28e-factory-b542b88a\image-shamu-lyz28e\system.img
What should I do ?

fastboot flash the stock factory image the right way, via fastboot, while youre in your bootloader. heres a read me with instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008
btw, you shouldnt use root toolkits until you are at the point of you knowing what you are doing.
Try to flash stock google image from bootloader if u can get to the bootloader using power and volume down button.

Do you have fastboot and abd installed. If so you are opening cmd in wrong place or environmental variable path missing or wrong.

Now you can use fastboot/ADB from anywhere on your PC.
Also, use method #2 from the link provided earlier. Flash-all doesn't work.

I was in twrp in recovery
and I think I formatted the data which might have cause me to wipe out the OS on my Nexus 6
or I might have checked something else to be wipe out
Alternative is copyright rom to sdcard using twrp and flash

I made a thread you should have read stating just how not to Do this damage lol... Like I did to myself .
Any time you wipe data/format in twrp your gonna delete the whole operating system .
Make sure you check mark oem unlock box in settings\developer options ,Very critical !!
This will always allow you to be able to flash Stock images with fast boot or a tool kit to get the device back to life .
Never oem relock the bootloader with stock recovery cause if you was oem locked/relocked and had deleted the O.S like you did you would have had a bricked phone .

Hey all,
A few of us are attempting to put together a solution to unlock the bootloader of the N4 without wiping, and we need your help.
We need dumps of the misc partition of the N4 both in a bootloader locked and unlocked state. I've explained below what we need and how to do it.
Note, this will require you to re-lock and unlock your bootloader, (which will cause your data to be wiped) so do a nandroid and copy it off your device for a later restore.
Novice instructions:
1) You need to start off with an unlocked bootloader.
2) Boot into fastboot mode and plug into your PC.
3) If you don't have ADB and fastboot on your PC, download the attachment from this post and extract the contents to a directory.
4) If you don't have CWM or TWRP flashed, download CWM from here and save as cwm.img in the same directory as in step 3.
5) Open a command prompt in the same directory as in step 3 (i.e., hold the shift key and right click in a blank space in that folder).
6) Flash CWM: fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
7) On your phone, navigate with the volume buttons to "recovery mode" and select with the power button.
8) Once CWM is booted, type the following commands into the command prompt:
Code:
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/misc-unlocked.img
exit
adb pull /sdcard/misc-unlocked.img
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
9) On your phone, navigate with the volume buttons to "recovery mode" and select with the power button.
10) Once CWM is booted, type the following commands into the command prompt:
Code:
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/misc-locked.img
exit
adb pull /sdcard/misc-locked.img
11) Now you have two files (misc-unlocked.img and misc-lock.img) in the directory you created in step 3. Zip them up and upload them in this thread.
12) Your bootloader is now locked. If you want it unlocked, unlock it using the normal method of "fastboot oem unlock" which will wipe your data, but all you have to do is restore your nandroid, and you will be back to where you started.
Advanced user instructions:
1) Start with an unlocked bootloader
2) Dump the misc partition: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/misc-unlocked.img
3) Lock your bootloader
4) Dump the misc partition again: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/misc-locked.img
5) Upload the files to this thread.
For advanced users only (this has not yet been tested), if you want, you can try flashing the unlocked misc partition:
Code:
adb shell "dd if=/sdcard/misc-unlocked.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19"
to see if it will unlock your device without wiping. But as I said, this has not been tested yet, so do the last step at your own risk.
Edit: nvm
Here is the dump. Thanks for your work.

Does it wipe sdcard? It need to know if I have to copy everything to the computer.

To be safe, you should copy everything to your computer.
Our theory is, once you lock your bootloader with "fastboot oem lock", you should be able to unlock it again without wiping anything just by flashing the misc partition that you dumped when your device was unlocked.
So, the steps themselves will not wipe anything. But, if you use "fastboot oem unlock" to unlock your bootloader (once you have completed all the steps), then it will wipe everything including /sdcard. If you use the command in the "advanced users instructions", the idea is that it won't wipe anything.

Did you try re-flashing the unlocked misc.img (while you were locked) to see if it unlocked?
I can't flash the misc-unlocked.img

Try this:

I still got the same error.
Also, the directories seem to be messed up again, the classic orphaned back up folders in that CWM/system doesn't seem to recognized anymore....

Not sure why your directories are messed up.
Find where the file is saved, and use that path for the "if" part of the command. For example, if it is saved in /storage/emulate/0, then use this command:
adb shell "dd if=/storage/emulate/0/misc-unlocked.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19"
Confirmed!
Flashing misc-unlocked.img unlocked my bootloader.
Note: I copy the file to /system, mounted /system in CWM then
adb shell "dd if=/system/misc-unlocked.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19"

I have no idea why /sdcard or /storage/emulate/0/ doesn't work. But I think you should take a look into this when you cook up the new root method

After looking at your dumps, it seems like you are running an old version of Android. Is it possible that you are still on JVP15Q? If so, I don't think that will help us too much. I dumped mine when I was on JOP40C (and I will do so again with JOP40D). If you do upgrade, then new dumps would be appreciated.
By the way, could you list the following from your device:
ROM version:
Bootloader:
Radio:
Thanks.
EDIT: If you want to follow the progress, you can have a look at this thread.

Well that is totally weird
Build Number:JOP40D

When I get some wifi later today, I'll return to stock and dump the misc partition for JOP40C, possibly redo JOP40D too.

Hmm. Thanks for the offer, but don't bother going through the hassle. If you are already running JOP40D, then it should be ok. Weird that your dump had JVP15Q in it. I'll wait until a couple of the other guys have a look at it (in this thread).

I have a feeling that it has something to do with history/logging. My N4 came with JOP40C out of the box, and I would bet that KyraOfFire's came with JVP15Q out of the box.
Does anyone know when the new ruu for the HTC One comes out? I went to unroot my phone, locked the bootloader, and went to run the ruu, only to realize I did the system update a few days before. So now I'm stuck in a bootloop and I can't mount my sd card ( I think it's corrupted ) So I'm pretty much out of a phone till then, correct?
Thank you in advance guys.
If you can unlock again, and somehow get adb to work, you can s-off using revone. Then you can flash any RUU. Otherwise, I dunno

I re-unlocked the phone again but I have no clue how to do the rest.
If you can get files to your sd, you can run revone or moonshine to get s-off. Look in original development for the corresponding threads and instructions. Once you have that, you can RUU old firmware or unsigned.

I can't mount my internal storage. Even in TWRP recovery it shows nothing on the sd card. I think some how the internal sd card got corrupted, so I can't mount it.

I think the only thing that will fix our problem is a new version of the ruu. I knowledge on adb is very limited, I'm sure someone that knows what their doing can fix it 1,2,3, but that person isn't me. :crying:
ADB should not be your tool of choice. Fastboot would be your friend here, since it's a lot more direct in its method. If your internal card isn't completely hosed, you should be able to restore using the fastboot flash commands to reflash your /system and /boot and /recovery, at which point you should be fine. There are several threads on how to do this.

Can you point me in the right direction?
I tried the all in one kit, tells me device not found. I know it's found by my computer, it's in the device manager, plus I hear the noise that confirms a device is found. I can reboot my phone thru the all in one kit. I think it's best to wait for the newest ruu in my case.

Download TWRP 2.5 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236620.
Put your phone into fastboot mode (power + volume up + volume down). Plug the phone into your computer.
Install fastboot/ADB. You may need to search the web for the platform tools, or there are some toolkits that can help.
Open a command prompt and run "fastboot flash recovery <path-to-recovery.img>".
Go to Advanced -> ADB sideload, then run "adb install <path-to-downloaded-image.zip>".
If that doesn't work, open the zip and run:
fastboot flash system <path-to-system.img>
fastboot flash recovery <path-to-recovery.img>
Bottom line is if you're not willing to learn a bit about fastboot and ADB, then you shouldn't be using a toolkit because you won't be able to fix your device if something goes wrong.
So I pretty much tried everything with no luck BUT I flashed the boot.img and now I'm getting some where. Now it's showing my internal storage but the rom I had installed I guess erased. I've been searching around people saying flash system.img but how can I flash a system.img? All the files I've been finding are .zip and there any .img roms that I can flash?

I've had this problem. To correct it, I put everything I need to flash in /sdcard/0. TWRP sometimes only sees stuff within a 0 folder placed inside root.
If you haven't tried already, make a 0 folder on the sdcard, then copy it and see what TWRP shows.
Thank you to @Indirect for fixing my problem.

In the future, try extracting your downloaded .zip files.
OTA packages and recovery-flashable ROMs are provided as .zip files. Each archive contains the necessary .img files and a script that tells the recovery where to put them. You can extract these .img files and flash them with fastboot if you don't have recovery access.
Fastboot factory images generally are .img files compressed as .tar files. You'd better have a tool like 7zip onboard so you can deal with the many archive formats you'll find on the net.

You can try it this way:
Copy ROM zip file to c:\mini-sdk and rename it to "rom.zip"
In the same command prompt window type and confirm each command with ENTER:
mount /data
mkdir -p /data/media/0
exit
adb push rom.zip /data/media/0
Copying rom.zip to the device will take a few minutes. Wait until it's done. The output should be: xxxx KB/s (xxxxxxxxxx bytes in xxx.xxxs). Now you can flash rom.zip from inside custom recovery. Done!

listen mate, I'm ready to help you push or sideload a rom to your phone, but we will not use this toolkit (no disrespect to squabbi btw).
When things goes wrong, better to use adb/fastboot directly from terminal, not using a toolkit.
so go ahead and install adb/fastboot on your computer so we can start troubleshooting.

This part to do in 2nd - in recovery mode:
make sure your rom.zip is in the same folder of adb and fastboot, if you have installed minimal adb and fastboot, it should be C:\Program\Minimal ADB and Fastboot\
hold shift + right click a blank space in that folder, select ''start command prompt here'' from the contextual menu.
then in the command prompt (with your phone booted in twrp) type:
Code:
adb devices
it should reply your device s/n + recovery, If yes then:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
should take around 5 min to transfer (there is no progress bar)

This part to do 1st in bootloader mode (fastboot usb mode)
wait your twrp is outdated and most newer rom require at least twrp 2.6.3.3.
download and save twrp 2.6.3.3 to your adb/fastboot folder
with phone in bootloader mode (fastboot):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then re-enter recovery and do what I said above
should my phone be in recovery mode or [email protected]

@alray where should the adb fastboot folder be located? is it supposed to show up when i plug in my phone?
Hi there!
I have a TX1085, it is already unlocked and rooted and has the CM Recovery installed. But before the CM Recovery I had the TWRP Recovery installed and tried to use it to flash CM12, which I had put on the SD-Card. It kept on telling me that mounting the system failed. Unfortunately I wiped everything via TWRP Recovery without creating a backup. Then I installed the CM Recovery to try again. Now, if I try to flash via CM Recovery (apply update) it doesn't show anything in my internal storage and I can't connect via adb using Ubuntu (Terminal tells me either "device not found" or "device offline".)
Any suggestions?

I have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm still learning all this, but in your case, from what I've learnend so far I'd maybe try the "fastboot boot recoveryfile.img" command, loading TWRP or CMrecovery into the ram of the phone and start flashing from there?! (just an idea)

Thanks for your suggestion! Unfortunately I don't know how to get access to my phone again via computer, which is - I think - because I deleted the system on it. Or how else could I get into the ram? This is my first time to flash a phone, so I really need some guidance.

Go to bootloader first the use the commands fastboot boot recovery.img
Try using twrp, everybody is working with it now.

I tried, but the Terminal gives me that:"cannot load 'recovery.img': No such file or directory". I'm in fastboot, is that correct? Is there another way?
Right now I can't (or don't know how to) switch back to TWRP, but I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for your help!
did you installed android sdk and adb drivers? if yes try to open cmd in sdk directory

Look for adb in 15 seconds and install it, go to directory where fastboot is located.
Download twrp image and rename it or something and copy recovery.img to fastboot directory.
If there is no recovery.img in that directory it will fail.
After you copy and rename recovery.img then you will be able to do what I told you.
If you are new at modding, you have to take it easy and ask everything before doing it.

I am using Linux without Android SDK, but I have working fastboot and adb installed.

I managed to get TWRP working again. I have the .zip-File in my Internal Storage, but can not mount System. How can I do this?
Edit: Wiping data seems to be working but I get the output "E:Unable to mount '/system'". When I try to install the ROM it fails to mount an unmount /system and gets stuck at "Patching system image unconditionally..."

Next time, please ask everything you need before doing something.
I have been modding my phones since the Motorola L7 and I always ask for everything on a new device before start modding.
That way I never bricked my phones.

This post seems to be aiming for Windows users, but I am using Linux. Could I still use it? If yes, how?

That is why I asked you how to get CM installed with TWRP. I had the mounting problem at the very beginning already. How can I get CM installed now?

The commands I wrote before, use the same steps but instead use the cm recovery.
I hope you understand!

In the newer versions of TWRP the first screen should show a Mount button. In that screen you should be able to mount any of the partitions.

If I use the "fastboot boot CM_recovery.img" command the phone installs it and then starts into TWRP. Except for that nothing changes. How can I continue?

If I try to make a tick (as to mount) system the phone vibrates but doesn't tick system, so I can't mount it this way.
