Nexus 6 stuck on bootup - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My nexus 6 is soft bricked I'm assuming, I can't get past the 6.0.1 boot up screen it just keeps on booting . The device is unlocked with TWRP recovery but not rooted as far as I know it's not rooted. The only way I can check MTP is through twrp but it's showing an exclmation point in device mgr. I'm in wugs toolkit now under Advanced Utilities, before I got the boot logo it had the you're device is corrupt. I fixed the corrupt message by putting my device in boot loader mode and in Advanced Utilities under fastboot flash then I clicked Boot [Kernel] I flashed the stock kernel and that got rid of the corrupt device warning screen. I'm gonna try flashing a modified boot img next but I'm having trouble. I just need someone to stick with me for awhile and help me fix this thing because I gotta return it and I don't have long.

If TWRP is installed there's no problem. Just a matter of the pc let recognize the device. Quit the toolkits though!
Do you have google drivers installed? Once they are installed your device should be recognized and you can copy any of the fine roms that can be found here.

Like I said I now have the corrupt device message back instead of the 6.0.1 boot logo. I tried flashing the stock img file and the stupid corrupt screen came back. Ok I'm just craps out luck I guess,

Ok I have what says is the latest Google usb drivers which was Aug 2015 downloaded. On my device I'm using I'm gonna transfers the drivers to my pc now, and attempt to install them. I hope this works and fixes my device. I sat in front of my pc yesterday for 7 hrs trying to fix this stupid phone.
Sent from my HTC6600LVW using Tapatalk

the corrupt device message is only there because you have twrp and a stock kernel. flash a custom kernel.

It's fixed, everything is running as it should no boot loops or corrupt screen, now I gotta check to see if recovery is gone. I used wugs to flash stock 6.0.1
Sent from my HTC6600LVW using Tapatalk

I used to have the corrupt message also, but it would go away and boot just fine. Started when I had TWRP. As someone mentioned, if this is a really annoyance, just flash a custom kernel . Though mine went away when I rooted with SuperSU (which patches the kernel I think)

I used wugs toolkit to flash back to complete stock it worked my device is running as normal, but when I power of the device and power it back on the corrupt message then disappears and boots right up. When I boot into boot loader mode and boot recovery it shows the green android robot laying down. After I flashed back to stock 6.0.1 it got rid of twrp and root but I'm still unlocked . The unlocked part I'm not worried about. In order to fix this do I have to 're root and flash twrp all over again or is there an easier way. I need step by step, on how to get rid of the corrupt message. Example, like when someone says flash img to me that's about as clear as mud.....

flash twrp then when you root, flash a custom kernel as well, that will get rid of the message.

I'm trying to get my brain working,lol my device is stock unrooted without twrp but the corrupt message still shows up I gotta get this fixxed. It's hard for me to understand what all I need to do.

i believe that your bootloader is unlocked, thats why its showing up on a non rooted n6. you can lock your bootloader(i wouldnt, you can have problems later) or you can flash twrp recovery, then a custom kernel, and you dont need to root it for that.

a stock twrp flashable, then theres no zip version of it available. BUT twrp can also flash .img kernels as well. if you have the factory image available, you can unzip it and just flash the boot.img in twrp(or fastboot). but why the stock kernel?? if you just want stock, id recommend just fastboot flashing the boot.img from the factory image. boot.img is the kernel.

Can't flash back to stock software...Need some help please.

Guys I need your help please..I root the tablet and flash Cromix ROM but the speaker went to crap..lots of crackling and distorted noise. So I went into recovery and flashed jb-4.3_ota-full_tf701t-macallan.zip to go back to stock. It did but its unstable and the speaker is still horrible..So I tried going to Asus Web site and DL the UL-K00C-WW-10.26.1.18-user.zip and put it in my Sd card and rebooted the device chosing RCK and it gives me an error..also did a wipe data on the option by the RCK...I cannot get it back to factory stock..what did I do wrong?
About in the settings
Build number
JSS15J.US_epad-10.26.1.18-20131217
020115_2013102100002
Then in Recovery is the Macalla-user BL released by "Us_epad-10.26.1.7-20131108"
I don't want to send it back to Asus, they are gonna charge me to fix this problem..Thanks
anyone please have any idea?
At least on tf201 (ordered my tf701 today) flashing stock rom downloaded straight from asus is a big no no on unlocked bootloader. You wiped data in rck? Do you mean in recovery or in the menu where are rck, fastboot and wipe data (just making sure)
How about in what state is your tablet now?

You can try this:
Download the stock recovery from here: http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3210
Copy the image to your fastboot folder.
Download the Asus firmware, unzip the file once and copy it to your internal SD.
Boot tablet into fastboot
Issue this command
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Note: Do not flash the recovery, just boot it.
It should recognize the firmware file on your tablet and flash it.
BTW, I doubt the rom has anything to do with your speaker problem, but it would be interesting to find out. Please report back.

YOU DO NOT FLASH THE RECOVERY IMAGE!
Boot it. Read the post and command.
You basically sideload the recovery. Instead of flashing it to your device, you boot it from your PC. But it should still function as if installed.
If you get an error, write it down. Exactly as it reports it.

[Q] Stuck in recovery mode

Right, so I've been following http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/orig-development/root-xperia-z-c660x-unlocked-t2154310 to root my xperia z. I followed the instructions but when I wrote the second image it refused to boot properly, looping constantly through the sony logo IIRC.
To fix this I used the recovery image. I can get into it just fine but when I try to install SuperSU-1.25-Busybox-1.20.2-UPDATE.zip it goes through the motions, but rebooting the phone just brings me back into recovery mode. Any ideas on what's wrong?

there is only one image that you need to flash that is boot.img
after that flash advance stock kernel in recovery followed by super su make sure your bootloader is unlocked if you plan to flash custom kernel
what firmware you are on?

I'm not sure what firmware I'm on but I did update it just before I tried all this. I did unlock my bootloader and used boot.img to get into recovery mode. Super su is done through recovery mode right? Because every time I try to install it it just returns to recovery mode with no changes

By the way, the guide you were following is outdated and has an old version of the kernel, that's why you went into a bootloop.

TWRP installation / Secure Boot Error 1003

Hello everyone. I have rooted the G4, have SuperSU, and was going about installing TWRP. I used flashify and the TWRP version made for the H811 contained in these forums. Flashify seemed to install image correctly, but upon rebooting into recovery, I got a "Secure Boot Error 1003" and then a reboot to normal operation. I have searched and seen fixes for different devices, but none for the G4. Where did I go wrong and what can I do now?
Did you hit flash boot img in flashify instead of recovery img? You could try to boot into download mode and redo root process should fix then flash twrp using flash recovery img in flashify.

If redoing the root process doesn't fix you can try using the kdz file to return to stock, then re root and re flash twrp in flashify.

You need to have OEM Unlock enabled in Developer Options, that how you can modify the boot files by unlocking the boot loader.

Can't flash 6.0 , TWRP recovery won't go into ADB. What can I do?

I rooted today because I can't wait much longer for an OTA update. I'm trying to flash though ADB but can't because TWRP won't load ADB mode. I have reflashed TWRP recovery but it still doesn't work.
So can I do now? Can I use an OTG cable or download the image right to the device? Should I restore my backup and re-root without adding a custom recovery?
I'm so lost, any help would be great.

You want pure stock? I just made a shamu mm aosp straight from the source, its flashable. You'll have to flash mm gapps and su if you want root.

You want the factory image. Download it. Extract all zips. Install minimal adb and fastboot. Plug up to CPU , put device in bootloader mode. Simply start adb/fastboot, CD to where images are, type fastboot flash bootloader "name of BL", fastboot reboot bootloader, fastboot flash boot boot.img, system system.img, cache cache.img

Can't seem to root 6.0.1

I'm having an issue rooting my Nexus 6. I rooted it easily enough a couple months ago with the NRT. I recently used the Flash stock + Unroot options to upgrade to 6.01. However, when I tried rooting it again I ran into problems. I plugged it up, selected the root option, it tested ADB connectivity, booted into TWRP and that's when I ran into an issue. It told me then that ADB device was not found. I rebooted my phone and though I can boot into it, I now get a "your phone is corrupt" message when I turn it on. I tried again and has the same issue.
I followed the instructions it gave me about checking my drivers and they're fine. Anyone have any idea what's going on and how I can get around it? Also help removing the "your phone is corrupt message"would be cool too, but it's not a priority since it seems harmless and I'm sure I could find it easily enough with a little Googling, the other problem I have not been able to find an answer to though.

flash any custom kernel to get rid of that message

Don't really have any desire to use a custom kernel, but I'll keep it in mind. I just don't know why it popped up now when nothing happened, but when I actually rooted the device I never saw that message.

because google put it there, it is new.
It was rooted with an older version of su. You probably said yes when twrp asked if you wanted to root it. Flash it back to stock, if you use nrt again select the no wipe option to save your data. And make sure your net is current. If you do it by hand skip the user partition.
When you root it male sure you use a newer su. 2.67 is the current version I believe.

Yeah I let twrp root it when it asked when I did it two months ago. Was that a bad thing? I thought I read that it was if you were rooting 6.0.1, but I was rooting 6.0 so I decided to see what would happen, and it went smoothly.
That is what is causing the corrupted message. It was an old version of su and it modified the system.

I see. Makes sense. Alright, thanks. I already did flash it back to stock to update to 6.0.1, so I'm not sure why you told me to flash it back to stock and then install su 2.67.
I am also having this problem. Twrp will not let me flash a kernel or SuperSU. I went back to stock recovery and tried to root using cf auto root. But no luck. Phone runs fine, I upgraded to 6.01 with adb and did not flash user data. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

flash twrp again, pick the kernel and SuperSU, then flash in twrp. if you can't pick them, make sure that twrp is mounted. and you DID NOT use adb to boot 6.0.1, you used fastboot, that is different than adb.

I can pick them both, when I swipe to flash it just goes back to the teamwin start up screen. Tried many, many times.

Tried flashing twrp a couple of times, went back to stock recovery and then twrp. No luck. Also, phone will not boot with custom recovery only with stock. Not sure if I tried 3.0.0.0

Thanks for all your help, did a clean install, fastboot flashed 6.01. I had gotten that corrupt phone message when I rebooted again but I took some security update and that got rid of the message. I flashed twrp 3.0.0.0 and SuperSU 2.67 and got root back. No worries, thx again.

If you are using the systemless root method then yes, you do want to keep system read only.
