[Q] Unable to upgrade rooted Nexus 6 to 5.1.1

I have a rooted Nexus 6. When I look into the Settings>Aobout Phone I can see that the Build version is LMY47D. When I'm trying to udpate to LMY47Z I'm getting a notification in recovery that my current system version is 5.0.2. Did anybody had a simillar problem? Is there any way to fix this except for flashing factory image?
Thanks for any help!

no matter how many times you try, you will never ever be able to update your rooted n6 via ota. if any system files changed from stock, an ota will download but will always error out. you can update several ways.. a. you can flash a 5.1.1 ROM via twrp. or b. you can fastboot flash 5.1.1.

2 things.
1. You must be 100% stock, no root, no custom recovery to OTA
2. The 5.0.2 message if you look probably.mentions deestroy..this is.because TWRP is using 5.0.2 sources - butnits irrelevant anyway give point 1

I know I can't do OTA. I have tried to install the file in TRWP and got the same error message. When I try to sideload with adb I'm getting device not connected error. Does this mean that I have to install the factory image?

twrp can not flash the ota or system img. you flash the system img via fastboot(not adb) and while you're in your bootloader.

You cannot use the OTA file no matter what vehicle you use.

I did this for 5.1.1 -people seem to be using 5.1.1 (For Sprint, USC ONLY) (LMY47Z)
take factory image - Unzip everything and keep the following images: bootloader, radio, boot, recovery and system.
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot format cache
fastboot reboot
fully stock 5.1.1 without losing your data

He'll probably want to not flash recovery. And if he has a custom kernel, may not want to flash boot either.

Thanks for all the answers! Some sites clearly don't know anything about this as there's a lot of recommendation to use adb for all this. I'll have a go tomorrow! Thanks again.

here too, many people try it with adb then claim it doesn't work. but its fastboot that you need, and while you are in the bootloader. adb will never work in the bootloader, only fastboot.

Download the files again and make sure you are correctly using fastboot

since you rebranded the device, you should unlock the bootloader again. fastboot doesn't allow running command with a locked bootloader
fastboot oem unlock yourcodehere

Troubles reinstalling TWRP [Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error]

I dirty flashed a new version of xiaomi.eu stable build, and it caused TWRP to uninstall itself.
Whenever I hold power on and volume up it just goes to fastboot.
Now I tried reinstalling TWRP like I've done many times before, but it keeps throwing an error. The error I get is when trying to boot without flashing the img. When I do this, I get the error:
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP.img"
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.609s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)
finished. total time: 1.675s
Anyone gotten any ideas on what could be going on here? I'm scared to try anything as my phone currently works, but I need TWRP back to update my phone to a different versions and to install the clock mod again.
Thanks!

Got it to load once, but now back to square one. Throwing same error.

Now when running the command fastboot reboot recovery it's saying
Code:
fastboot: usage: unknown reboot target recovery
And writing 'fastboot boot twrp.img' turns the phone off / makes the screen go black. Fully bricked now as the OS wont load either.

Try on a computer with a USB 2.0 port, or a different usb cable, had the same issue once

Ended up having to reinstall dev rom. Device relocked, so have to wait 15 days again. @BusterBg_18 Thanks, will do when I unlock the device
EDIT: When using Mi Flash tool, make sure to check 'clean all' and not 'clean all and lock' in the bottom right. That's what set me back 2 weeks.

I have the same error. How can I fix this pls?

Flash the latest official rom then start all over again. Follow the post above you about miflash.

Hello, I've had the same problem, then flashed latest dev rom via MiFlash and it booted, but now after I flash any custom ROM in TWRP i have this issue again and need to reflash chinese ROM. How can I flash any custom rom?

i'm stuck in the same issue. stuck in fastboot and it would not load recovery. any fix?

Hi, i fixed the "Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error" by simply restarting the Device.
It seems to appear randomly when flashing partitions and then block all further Transfers.
If the Device loops in Fastboot, the only Solution to me was re flashing the Stock Firmware.

I have the same Issue, but reflashing Stock Firmware or making OTA Updates dident helped for me. Ive already tried TWRP and OrangeFox without success. The Screen always turns black and Fastboot stays active in an limited Mode, any Ideas? My host Computer only has 3.0+ Ports only, but ive used an 2.0 Extender so it should be fine?

long time ago now. but i remember at one point having to flash the stock firmware using the mi unlock tool. i also remember trying every single version of twrp and rom until one finally worked. sorry i can't help much but i believe that's how i eventually fixed it.

hi, I've experienced with the same thing.
this methode help me out from it.
try to reflashing some file image from the rom where youre want to install in hh with adb.
copy this files below from rom image to adb folder
1. system.img (command in adb >> fastboot flash system system.img)
2. boot.img (command in adb like #1, change the name of img file) do till #6
3. vendor.img
4. dtbo.img
5. cust.img
6. misc.img
7. now flashing twrp/recovery.img (choose twrp compatible with rom you want to install) with adb
8. the "fastboot boot recovery.img" with adb
9. flashing the rom by twrp

尝试使用 adb 从要在 hh 中安装的 rom 中重新刷新一些文件映像。
将下面的文件从 rom 映像复制到 adb 文件夹
1.system.img（adb >> fastboot flash system system.img中的命令）
2. boot.img（adb 中的命令，如#1，更改 img 文件的名称）直到 #6
3. 供应商.img
4.dtbo.img
5. 自定义.img
6. 杂项.img
7. 现在用adb刷twrp/recovery.img（选择twrp与你要安装的rom兼容）
8. adb 的“fastboot boot recovery.img”
9. twrp刷入rom

I have a soft rocked Red Magic 3

Can anyone tell me what this (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State).
What exactly is locked? Is my cell OEM unlocked?
I flashed the wrong TWRP (for the 2017 Red Magic-NX209J) and even though I have been able to unlock my cell via CMD commands; it remains permanently in fastboot mode?
If I send a CMD command to reboot it reboots straight back to fastboot mode.
No form of ADB connect seems to work an my windows PC cannot see/show the cell?
How the hell do I fix this? It's been in this state for a week.
Can anyone help?

Meaby try this?
Then, to unlock your bootloader, enter "fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX629J"
And meaby try the recovery backup instead of TWRP.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have no recovery back up Is it possible to get past TWRP being locked and use CMD to flash the International or chinese ROM? Or recovery image?
Unless tools are developed to unbrick this device I am scared this problem might be permanent

Download this twrp, and then upload it to google drive or something so the rest of us can download it too .

Thanks but what do i do with it? Its all in an asain language?

Link not open bro

The TWRP does not work
Sorry. That link to the twrp does not result in a bootable twrp recovery for me.
I am starting to think my cell is not fixable.
I did not do that much wrong I just flashed the twrp for 2 models of red magic earlier. It only has a fastboot mode. I either get a boot screen then fastboot mode or a warning about the bootloader being unlocked.
Whatever is wrong with my cell prevents ADB connect an the cell is not able to be seen by windows.
This $1100 New Zealand dollar cellphone may be permanently bricked by my mistake.
I might just need to bin it an buy another one.
Lesson learned.
It confusing....
My cell acts like it has a softbrick (can turn off an on an has fastboot options and I have erased it an OEm an bootloader unlocked it)
And also behaves like a hard brick (resists every method of repair).
I just do not understand it or Nubia products. I am unfamiliar with this phone.
Does anyone have any clue how I can see this cell on my windows pc or ADB connect it an boot into TWRP?
Are there any Nubia repair software tools?

Thanks for that. I'm talking about using CMD to totally wipe everything in the cell an reflash the Chinese ROM that came with it. Repair software. Might take months to develop software like that.

Also it isn't a zip. It's some other kind of file. And does not boot into TWRP on my unit

So are you able to unlock your bootloader in its current state?
If you have an older TWRP installed maybe try changing the model on your bootloader command to match it:
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX209J
If this works then flash the correct TWRP and the boot IMG from your original rom
fastboot flash recovery <new recovery>
fastboot reboot bootloader

Terrapin. Absolutely nothing worked. I am the 3rd person who has had this issue I know of. 2 other xda members had the same issue. One with TWRP like me an the other got stuck in fastboot mode after trying g to flash an apk of Gapps? I think these cells do not like tinkering. But your advice enabled me to be OEM and bootloader unlocked. But always.....straight back to fastboot mode no matter what I flash? My red magic 3 device is currently at a service center with a technician trying to solve the problem. I have 3 repayments left on my Xiaomi Mi9 that has zero flashing issues. O admit i.may be ignorant of the ways of Nubia ?

I did it

enter recovery, use a FAT32 pendrive format, add Chinese ROM, rename it (update.zip) to OTG flash.
Everything works again.
good luck.

Thank God. Maybe the Chinese service guy I'm paying will get on xda an try your idea. I'm being lazy saying that lol. Thanks very very much. I will show your post to the service guy who has my red magic 3 or try it myself.
There's no way your a junior member working all this out. I'm a junior member listed as a senior member who makes rookie flashing errors with Chinese cellphones lol.
I will share if I can implement your ideas successfully. Thanks buddy my missus really loved this phone I felt really bad when I incapacitated it.
Fingers crossed.....

I have no idea how did you managed to flash the system.img
C:\adb>fastboot flash system system.img
target reported max download size of 805306368 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magi
LE: After this error, somehow it manages to continue and flash all partitions of the system, but after above tutorial, the phone still reboots in fastboot mode and cannot access recovery

Thanks for the help. I do not understand some of the commands an cannot seem to get them right? And I do not understand why the instructions say to cmd flash the image (IMG) via command prompt (which just errors like the strange NON-HLOS command?) Then the instructions say to flash the Chinese rom via otg?
Are you supposed to flash the ROM twice?
Can someone please give me some more detailed instructions as this cell has been non functional about 2 months now.
Planning to fix it an give it to my partner

My suggestions is, download a full sd card update package, unlock the bootloader temporarily,extract the update file and flash the vbmeta.img to vbmeta partion, then flash the recovery.img to recovery partition, after that, try to boot into recovery through bootloader. You have to make sure that you use all the same file from same package, if you are use a low version vbmeta file to boot a high version system (or recovery ) it will not boot. the vbmeta is very important on this phone.

Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot

Can't even fastboot flash boot recovery system...and thats all folks...waste of money.

No I installed Chinese v2.27.... Well it's absolute mess like I never seen Android before. Then attempted to flash global again, problems to the point of corruption. I have fastboot flashed all key elements of working Android phone multiple times. Can only get to fastboot after boot screen that I have to do manually. Recovery system is toast.... Guess it's back to Poco F1.... Learned my lesson from junk.

if you stuck in the Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot and you are in the Chinese or global rom then flash the stock boot image via adb. well I am using a Chinese v2.27 rom with rooted +gapps and then realized that most of the google apps wont work correctly because of the unlocked bootloader. I tried to lock the bootloader via adb then the message "Device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot" show up. so I try to use adb to flash the stock boot image then it work. first place the stock boot image to the "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" folder which located in the local drive under program file(x86) then run the command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

Bud I put so much effort in last 13 hours to no avail....fastboot erased all partitions, reformatted, reflashed to no avail. Right now it just boots loops on Chinese 2.27 boot splash, I do have Chinese recovery though, but the same otg adapter and pen drive that works on 5 different devices, this damn phone won't read it so even that is out of the question. I wipe my hands clean of it, some things just best to put a bullet through it.

No BS, all I did was flash CN 2.27 over NA Global, after a look at the mess it was I proceeded to flash NA Global back.....no TWRP No Root with SuperSU or Magisk. But in fastboot it does say Root=1, so I guess the CN 2.27 rooted it by default cause I sure as hell didn't. One thing that is bothering me while in fastboot unlock bootloader I can't turn Secure Boot off which I believe is why it won't boot system.

I got CN version 2.27 images, am I supposed to be using one of the other versions off the official site?

all you need to do is to fix the corrupt image so later once you finish the first step of booting to the phone then you can flash to global rom. if you have the cn version 2.27 boot.img then you can download the adb and use the command to fix the phone

Shouldn't have messed with something that wasn't broken. Now you have a nice brick to use as a paperweight. Hope you get it fixed tho. Good luck.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash dsp dspso.bin
fastboot oem nubia_lock NUBIA_NX629J
fastboot reboot
*****as soon as boot screen appears hold volume + button, now in recovery...navigate to wipe data and then wipe cache....then plug in otg usb pen drive (formatted FAT32) with Rom package .zip....navigate to update otg in recovery select it let it do its thing and walla your phone is fixed.
*****if you ever go from CN rom to Global rom you must Wipe Data and Cache through recovery, it is not enough to do it in fastboot and your device will remain soft bricked.
