Good evening, everyone.
Few hours ago, my N6 randomly shut down and not booting up to the system. I tried to re-install the factory image for 5.0.1 but I got stuck at bootloader screen. I tried every options available from bootloader screen(Start, Recovery mode, Restart bootloader etc.) but it performed nothing but coming back to the bootloader screen. When I tried to use 'Nexus Root Toolkit' to install new system and whenever the process was trying to initiate the process, it is giving me same error message 'FAILED <remote failure>'
What can I do from here?
I appreciate your attention.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you should be able to either flash the stock factory image, or re-flash each partition separately through the tool-kit. Since you're getting remote errors with the toolkit, double check that you have the right drivers installed, the tookit and a search on the forum should help with that.
did you already try :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008
Don't want to raise any alarms already but I shut mine down on Sunday night (Unlocked/ Rooted/ custom kernel & rom) in order to boot in Recovery and flash a new kernel version and:
1) The sdcard looked empty, it read ~ 26 GB free (I had no more than 20 gb free before reboot) and no folders whatsoever.
2) The phone was stuck at the Google logo heating up but going nowhere.
As I said don't want to start assuming things but the phone randomly going "nuts" and losing all data is scary... I had to spent my entire day yesterday flashing stock 5.0.1 back and re-setting up everything. I followed the guide posted above (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008 oh, go with Method 2 and it will work fine).
Out of curiosity how does your SD look like from recovery? Oh, but then you say you can't even boot to Recovery. Which recovery do you have? (I had/have TWRP 2.8.3.1 ). Anyway to repair it you only need to be able to boot into Bootloader properly I guess.
Hey all. Appreciate any help, because Im out of ideas here. A friend brought me his Vzw G2 yesterday morning, which he had bricked trying to install cm12 (He's had it rooted and unlocked since he got it), and he apparently tried to install a cm12- compatible twrp, and thats when he got a secure boot error. I fixed it just by using the lg flashing tool and a tot and restoring it to stock, but when I tried to flash it, I ran into the issue of twrp wouldn't flash anything, some drinks were had, and out of drunken stupidity last night we tried to dd a new copy of twrp, from twrp's shell onto it, which sent it back into a brick. Now, its worse, download mode cant even be accessed. I've been at this all day trying to fix it. Trying to go to recovery takes it to fastboot, but, it goes blank after about 10 seconds, and then no fastboot connection can actually be made to the device so I cant use fastboot. I'm on linux, so it does show all of the devices partitions under /dev, so I tried another post's idea of manually dding the entire bootstack onto the device, partition by partition, but that didnt seem to change anything. It's on the 39a lollipop update. Any one have any other suggestions?
Any luck?
No, sadly still nothing. I've tried re-dding a few times, but I cant think/read anything else to try.
Hi everyone, I'm having a lot of problems with my phone: last night, after it dropped to 0% battery life, it wouldn't charge. So i waited a while and ifinally managed to turn it on, but It wouldn't go past the Cyanogenmod logo. So i tried few things,first wiping cache, then factory reset from TWRP and I even tried the "Factory" option in the fastboot screen. Nothing worked, and it even got worse I think, TWRP says it's unable to mount /data partition and /storage partition. I don't know what caused it, and i don't remember the precise moment it became "unmountable" for the first time (since I've been trying to fix this thing for like 24 hours now).
Since i couldn't fix it via recovery, I tried looking for people who had the same problem on the internet, and I tried everything i could find. (like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2683787).
I then tried to go back to stock rom via adb and fastboot, but without success.
The main problem with fastboot is the fact that it doesn't change anything in my phone, it gives no errors when i try to flash the stock rom, but when i reboot my phone, nothing changes, or at least this is my opinion, since I still get the cyanogenmod logo, and TWRP doesn't get replaced (while it should go away, since when in the whole process of flashing the rom, i also flash recovery.img, which shouldn't be TWRP).
I tried a whole lot of other commands too, like "fastboot erase recovery", but TWRP is still there, and so is the cyanogenmod logo.
This is why i think fastboot is unable to write in my phone, but if that's the case, it should at least give errors.
So, wrapping up, my data partition seems to be corrupted, and flashing the stock rom still gets my into a bootloop (with the logo from the previous rom and TWRP still there).
Do you have any advice?
P.S: my phone is a xt1068
Are you able to pull logcat?
Logcat command works, i don't get errors in the terminal, but in the text file there's only this line : "/sbin/sh: exec: line 1: logcat: not found"
Dmesg works though, I don't know if it's helpful

I have same phone, you mentioned you also tried to flash stock rom without success, did you flash the partition file aswell before flashing system and the rest of files ? Check the flashfile.xml file into the stock firmware folder to make sure you not missing anything.
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
Good luck.
i'm on the same boat. It seems it's a NAND issue, but how come it happens randomly?
It seems to happen (its a bit rare, so don't get worried) when you let your battery drop to 0% and the phone suddently turn off, like what happened to the OP.

If it's a bit rare, how come there are a rather interesting quantity of posts regarding that matter? I'd like to know WHY I can't write even with fastboot. There should be a way of unlocking the NAND / partitions. Even if I try to hard brick it, it's impossible.
PS: can we someone a look at this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56608822&postcount=2
Possibly if we can force the way to QHSUSB mode, phone can be saved.

Unfortunately I didn't quite understand what that is about, if you happen to try it out let us know.
Anyway, if we don't manage to fix it, I guess I'm going to try and take it back to the store, since it is a common problem. Only problem is I'm on a custom rom and I can't even go back to stock and relock the bootloader, so I don't think they are going to replace it, but it's worth a try.
You can try by helping me to look for a circuit PDF from the board or trying it yourself.
I could try and disassemble it, but you're gonna have to wait a few days, I'm not at home and I'm gonna be back on the weekend.
As for the circuit pdf, I was only able to find videos and guides on how to disassemble it, unfortunately
Dude, no worries. Ive took the back out with all the screws, but I have nothng to make shorts with.... I'll come up with something. Take your time and keep me posted.
any news concerning this problem? i have tried searching for a manual but I did not succeed.
Anyways after finding the manual, we can short circuit the 2 capacitors there and the phone will be in qhsusb mode.
And after that ?

After that.... well.... after some research, we'll be needing singleimage.bin to use the blankflash utility for lollipop phones (mbm-ci 5.0 lollipop) so somebody can generate the singleimage.bin for us.
Once we have that, we can try to flash the phone at lowlevel to see what happens.
I will search the internets in hoping to find the schematics of this phone.
Keep me informed if you find it faster .
Cheers mate
we can connect through hangouts / etc.

I have update my rooted OP 3T by flashing the complete rom through TWRP.. But the problem is whenever I flash the Supersu version : SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815 or SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742, I am getting bootloop.
Please anyone advise me.
I checked that without flashing SuperSU phone is able to Boot safely.
Thank you in advance.
It's normal if it bootloops once or twice
But if it's more than that then it's problematic
So which one is it
Another thing you can try is try magisk root instead of supersu and see if gets the same result
Phone was stucked in bootloop for an hour without any reboot.
I am not fond of magisk yet... So dont have any plan for it.
Just want to know if this happens to only me or there are many others with same issue.
Edit:
Finally installed Magisk for root... Issue closed.
help!?

That is not the proper way to unroot (go back to stock). Relocking the bootloader while rooted was asking for trouble. There is a guide on how to return to stock in the Guides section.
Also, fastboot commands will only work while in fastboot mode, if the phone is looping, or otherwise stuck on any other screen/mode, than fastboot commands will not work. It's also a bit irrelevant, as your ability to flash anything with a locked bootloader is very limited. That's the whole purpose of a locked bootloader.
I'd start by making sure you are in fastboot, get fastboot working, and unlock the bootloader again. Then follow the proper process to return to stock.

well i tried unlocking bootloader but it says failed (remote: oem unlock not allowed)
Iam i stuck here for ever ?
can u tell me the command that i can try on an phone with a locked bootloader
I forgot this is an edit the first time Gentlemen, I am absolutely at wit's end now I am no geek with a capital G however I have been modifying phones for some 3 years now and I can't even tell you how many times I flashed ROMs my beloved 3T 3T has had been acting glitchy lately like when I would reboot the circle that turns - instead of just turning evenly it would twitch, it was such a small thing I ignored it but I think now that that's must be have been indication something was not right few other things like that. I flashed the Freedom ROM cuz I'm so sick a Google and Google Assistant when I came out I was in a bootloop so I wiped everything except OTG everything and formatted data did the ROM Flash again the a boot Loop still abides and I've done it a dozen times now sometimes a couple of times it it just it kept recycling the bootloop another time and got hung up on the OnePlus it just sat there on the logo and if I miss something obvious I do apologize I'm tired and I'm at wits end because I'm not used to not being able to solve my own problems I guess so any help at all or just even a heading in the right direction would be so much appreciated that I don't even know how to call it quantify it thank you
By the way I seldom post or even post questions but when I do I always pretty much say the same thing you guys are the best this is the one place I can come for Andrew Android advice or or guidance and I just I absolutely trust what I read so thank you thank you thank you thanks for being there
Edit - I'm so tired I forgot the first time I went to reflash the ROM it told me that my 3T was in fact not a 3T that it was a three and I read someplace so I'm XDA that that's just Corruption of the install script so I downloaded it again I ran 7-Zip it said it was coherent so I flash it again if that's important but thanks again

Plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
My oneplus 3 is stuck in recovery mode
My bootloader is locked
Everytime i switch on my phone there is a message
Which is on photo below
Hello Friends,
Yesterday I was chatting on whatsapp and suddenly my le2 restarts, and then a blue splash screen appears and device keeps on booting,
hence I went to recovery and clear the data, but that also didnt help me,
Then i flash the 13s rom via Flashone 1.9 then also same problem happens, sometimes it went to optimizing apps 3 of 4 and again restarts with blue LED, i were unable to switch it off,
after draining the whole battery I keep mobile to charge but now it is not charging, it only showing Red Solid LED Continuously.
Now I am also Unable to boot into recovery or fastboot mode.
I again flash the stock 13s rom via flashone 1.9 , i got success msg but then also mobile is not booting nor it is charging.
Note: I am on complete stock rom on locked bootloader, never unlocked or rooted, used as come in box.
Please give me a solution on this, I have searched everywhere but not getting any solutions.
Thanks in advance
Try to check your USB cable, most of the time charging issue is due to cable

I also have the exact same problem. Phone started rebooting as soon as it booted up. Somehow i managed to unlock the bootloader, but to no avail. Can't seems to find any rom which can boot up. So practically i have a bricked device with trwp. Formatted the system and other partitions with twrp, flashed many roms. Still the result is same. Bootloops.
Hi,
try to to reimage your phone with QFIL from this site:
https://www.techpoison.in/2017/12/how-to-flash-letv-le-2-x526-stock.html
I downloaded everything from there, QFIL, Sparse image and drivers. My phone was bricked, but its working normally now. After you flash the image your phone should charge normally, just try to boot it up. In my case i had issues with baseband, not detected, no sim function and no wifi and phone was restarting each 3-4 minutes, but it was operable. Basedband issues can be solved by hard reseting the phone and updating it to 21s using the local update, just put the 21s stock renamed to update.zip to internal storage and run system update. When you get the error - APK missing, just boot it up again and retry the local update, should work fine the second time, i just deleted the update.zip and put back again and ran the update.

Flash the 21s bootloader + modem, one ZIP file, should work fine. Not sure what ROM did you install last time. You can give it a shot with with MIUI 10 - its nougat.
I had similar issues, see my topic, maybe it helps a bit.

Brother same thing happened to me, a week ago. I cant say about your problem but my problem was due to faulty power button. Actually due to that reason my phone actually kept restarting itself. It showed red light blinking while charging and wasn't able to bypass the optimizing app screen. I also thought it was a software issue but actually it wasn't. I spent about 2 hours figuring out what the actual problem was. The problem was: As we know when power button is hard pressed for about 10-15 seconds it reboots itself.
Although the repair shop guy didn't put new power button but he added a tiny piece of paper in between the power button and body housing to prevent the issue and voila the problem was solved.

Hi, Thanks. I actually did that first, flashing through qfil the same rom. it helped me to go to settings after umpteen attempts to go past language selection screen, and i was just able to oem unlock and enable usb debugging (actually after a 2nd partial failed flashing). the phone kept freezing within seconds of booting up. Now After i unlocked the bootloader and installing twrp and flashing many roms thru twrp, i am still having the same problem of booting up and freezing at start-up. cant flash again through qfil, as i will again loose the unlocked bootloader and twrp.
At least , now i can try different roms to see which can unbrick it. last one used was the twrp flashable rom based on eui (small eui by aurel) but it also freezes on language selection screen or beyond.
I am running out of ideas, lets see.
2nd partial failed flashing? any issues during the flash process? i had some issues when i used usb 3.0, 2.0 worked fine for me. If you have also charging issues stay in twrp and let the phone charge properly, its slower but should work fine. You can try to flash the 21s bootloader with modem, maybe it will boot properly. But try it only when you are able to enter the fastboot mode, longpress volume down and power for 10-15 seconds, if that is working you should be able to flash twrp via fastboot and you can experiment a bit. Try to find the chinesse twrp 3.0.2.0 and try to flash the stock 21s version. Should be also an image file, in standard twrp go to install - image, after selecting the image file click on recovery and install, after installation go back, reboot, recovery. Copy 21s to storage, wipe data, cache, dalvik and flash it, chinesse twrp will skip version check and will let you install the stock image, after install reboot but click on do not replace recovery button - this will keep the chinesse twrp installed.
If nothing helps it can be only a HW failure, maybe the power button, try usb 2.0 port during the flash process, i had issues with 3.0 on my pc, if that doesnt help.try a different cable, no more suggestions, sorry.

My phone has been flashed multiple times by qfil method. And always it hangs at initial setup (so it boots up, but hangs at language selection or further up screens, before setup can complete and launcher could be loaded).
While trying to flash again with qfil once it stopped at 25 percent (because the battery went dead). Charged the battery and booted up the phone, and i was surprised it booted up. After 2-3 attempts i was able to reach the launcher screen and immediately enabled developer options and oem unlock / usb debugging. Only had few split seconds to do this and the phone froze again. After that i installed twrp and hence treying different roms. Most fail at setup.
Just tried MIUI 9PRO ROM. It also froze at setup multiple times, but once i was able to complete the setup and miui launcher is up , but it reboots or turn off the phone just after that. So cant do anything with the phone. Unsure of whether a newer bootloader will help in these freezing issues as i have been able to boot up at least in some roms only if for few seconds. Will try to tinker the settings of miui rom (if the phone let me do it before freezing/hanging). Lets see. Thanks for suggestions. More suggestions welcome, because i am still unsure weather this is a software or hardware related problem. I am guessing that it may have something to do with Google security as earlier i was getting msg that phone has been wrongly resetted and needs to verify with Google (but i couldn't get a chance to use the same account, as phone kept freezing at setup).
Did you fully charge the battery, if not let it fully charge in twrp. Flashing the roms in twrp works everytime or do you see any errors? Before you flash anything disconnect the usb cable.

Try to flash the 21s bootloarder with modem, one zip using twrp. Go to fastboot mode and wipe modems. fastboot erase modem1st fastboot erase modem2st. Put the phone to flash mode and reimage with qfil. Before you do it write down both imeis, you can find them also on the original package on the backside. Also try to remove all sim cards from the phone and try a different cable. If nothing helps, hw issue, maybe the power button mention earlier in this thread.
After reflash skip everything at setup and reset phone to factory defaults. OEM is already unlocked, you dont have to do it again.
I have charged the phone fully before any flashing after that error. I can flash the phone through twrp without any error msg. The phone boots up most of times in various roms but hangs at or after the initial setup screens show (like language selection etc). Flashed the modem+bootloader, success, but it showed bootloader version as 20s (not 21s). Tried the commands u mentioned to erase modems, it say error failed, no such partition found. I had checked the partitions with parted and 56 partitions are there including the modemst1 & 2.
Now re flashed via qfil , did as advised but again the same problem of hanging / freezing at or after initialization screens of various roms.

Yeah sorry i screwed the command its fastboot erase modest1 modemst2, my bad.
Just now i was able to complete the initialization (setup screen) of sparse image india rom. I can reach the launcher and settings for few seconds before the device freezes or reboots.
So the same problem , with which i started, the only good thing is that i have been able to set oem unlock to on, so that i can flash trwp and various roms (but all fail with the same freezing issues)

So you erased modems and reflashed with qfil right? If so i assume its a HW problem. Try the fix with the power button, i ran out of ideas
Last thing which can help maybe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH3VOIlLfvo&t=135s
Download 21s stock image + the chinesse twrp, links should be under the video, i think so, or look somewhere in the forum for new links. Try to reflash the 21s, some people reported that freezing issues were gone after installing the latest EUI. Basically you can do the same after QFIL reflash but you need enough time to copy the ZIP file as UPDATE.ZIP to the internal storage and run the local update via setting, system update and local update, i hope that TWRP will work for you, just follow the video tutorial.

Download 21s stock image + the chinesse twrp, links should be under the video, i think so, or look somewhere in the forum for new links. Try to reflash the 21s, some people reported that freezing issues were gone after installing the latest EUI.

Did that also, the same problem. The phone freezes after the os is booted. I was wondering what is that isnt touched by flashing ( in download mode or fastboot mode or through twrp). I may need to tinker that. The roms are all fine in the sense they all stop at the same points. Something in the phones partition, which isnt touched by flashing? (There must be, as i flashed with qfil, the oem unlock remains, the bootloader didn't lock, and it remains unaffected by re-imaging)
Try this, maybe it helps:
