Tried searching around and have seen others with this issue but nothing has worked. Tried a clean flash of a rom and during the setup wizard its still broken.
I have pretty much done everything but done a clean flash of stock and i am gearing up to do that but i dont have high hopes.
are you using a custom kernel?

Nope...
its not that i just cant connect, its like the hardware is broken.
and just did a complete factory image flash.
still broken
I had this happen to my N6 last week. It started after running the battery completely flat so the green LED lit when I charged it. The fix having repeatedly wiping seemed to be draining battery completely again until the green LED lit when I charged it. It has worked fine ever since.

First contacted square trade as that is my insurance, they said contact Moto because it is still under warranty. Did that, Moto said they would replace it. I said i don't want to go without a phone and they said they can charge me 25 and put a 500 hold on my account but they would send the phone first. Said OK phone arrives on Tuesday.
Just as an FYI they did basically say did you factory reset it.... but that is all the trouble shooting.
If anyone is interested in my symptom. Wifi is just always stuck at "turning on" every once in a while it will be off. but when you try to turn it on it just gets stuck again.
When it is stuck you can not turn it off.

Might be worth an RMA. see my previous post.
Don't know if I'm a little too late to this post... .But it happened to my Nexus 6 too, tried everything, wipe cache, factory reset, root, delete /persist/wifi but nothing worked....
However, luck seems to be on my side when I went into Google Connectivity Services under Setting--> Apps... and wipe its cache and tried to disable it (but stopped before I did). Then reboot the phone once i wiped all the data from the Google Connectivity Services Apps and VIOLA! It's working now!
*EDIT... It worked for about an hour (allowing me to dl all the apps) but now it has failed again....
I have the same issue as soon and I unlock the bootloader
any ideas? Im going to root again the device and load a different to see if it makes any difference
I am experiencing this as well. Was working fine yesterday and when I tried to go to Android M Preview 3 this happened. Whats worse is that this is happening right after I switched from Unlimited Data on TMo to Project Fi with 3GB. Making this even more frustrating is that Project Fi support says the preview images are now compatible with Project Fi. Isn't that something they should be telling people up front?!
I'm having the same issue on marshmalow, it suddenly started to happen some weeks ago.
First times was solved with phone reboot.
Then was required to clean cache before restart
Now I've tried reclutance suggestion (delete data from google connectivity services and reboot but the problem persist?
I'm using 6.0.1 stock rom without root
I don't want to perform a factory reset
Any suggestion?
here too...close the wifi
All tried doesn't work,
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache (via fastboot as I do not have a custom recovery neither unlocked the boot or root, my phone is completely original)
Also tried to delete wifi data
Any suggestion?
RMA
I'm continuing to have issues with my Motorola Nexus 6 phone.
It is running stock android 6.0.1
I never unlocked it or rooted (Sadly cause If i do so I were able to backup my apps and settings with titanium backup and restore it before a full device reset )
The problem started some weeks ago.
First symptom was that i was unable to enter on Settings -> Data usage (Every time receives an "unfortunately, settings has stopped" message)
Then some days have difficult to connect to wifi or disconnect (at that moment I didn't investigate the issue, just retry considering the issue was on router side)
After some time I realize that the problem was on the phone, specially cause it started to stuck turning on wifi, but for some days just turning off phone and turning it on again solves the issue.
With the time it becomes more and more frequent and turning it off and on didn't solve anything so I've reboot into recovery mode and perform a clear cache but it doesn't solve the issue.
Looking here and at other forums found that this issue is really common and some people solves it trough ADB with "adb shell pm clear com.android.settings" I've tried it but it didn't solve anything.
Even when many people didn't solve it with a factory reset I want to try it, but I need to be able to backup one app data (If could backup everything will be the best but at least need to backup blockchain app (Also have an issue with them as provider and couldn't log in from another device or website, just this device has a session already approved and open)
Any suggestion?
I've upgraded/downloaded to almost any possible rom and the problem is still here
Looking on forums found that is a very common issue since marshmallow in many devices (Specially Nexus)
Most people couldn't fix it but some could.
the problem is with devices macaddress that shown 02:00:00:00:00:00 and get stuck turning on
there are solutions in forums that seems to be a little bizarre like drain battery to 0 and full recharge (This one works for me once)
,others like deleting Google connectivity services cache, or deleting /persist/wifi folder completely
But I found one for nexus 5 who replaces the full /persist partition with a dump and edit the files and permissions with macaddress information.
This seems to have logic and provides an explanation about why the problem persist after, factory reset or rom changing so I want to try it in nexus 6.
Could someone provide me a dump of it?
There is an app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...nam.partitions, that makes the process of making a partition backup easy. The persist partition is on /dev/block/mmcblk0p26
Thanks in advance
Did you solve your problem? Because I have the same. Did you try to change Mac address on device?
Hi guys. This issue just started happening a couple of days ago, it started when I was playing games (phone wasn't hot) then it turned off by itself. My battery was still at 80% so I turned it back on, after it started saying "starting apps" it turned off again and the phone is now constantly rebooting. It doesn't seem to be bricked at all as it sometimes boots to the menu but when i start tapping on an app it shuts off and does the constantly rebooting issue again. It could be a hardware issue which means I'm gonna need to send my phone to the service center for a repair but one thing that makes me think there could be a way of fixing this without paying a technician is, when i boot to download mode, it doesn't do its constant reboot issue. I was even able to flash a firmware via Odin but when the phone started to boot after firmware installation, It did the spontaneously rebooting in the middle of the boot process again. If any of you guys have any idea on how to fix this or if there's even a way to, Please help me. Thanks! Cheers!

Try flashing the experimental firmware from the rooting guide, and if that doesn't work then it is most likely a hardware issue, and I have a strong suspicion that it is.
If you have an external SD card, remove it and see if problems persist. Honestly that sounds like a firmware scrambled.
Ive had this phone since day one, and i can atest that after a past update the phone started overheating and shutting down when downloads write to the phone and the phone starts an update, it'll shut down in the middle of an update.
Then recently the phone overheats and shuts off when im recording video, and of course when im updating apps. I have to put the phone in the freezer or fridge just to keep it from shutting off in the middle of a crucial update.
I've come to the conclusion, either the phone cant handle the clocking up during tasks, or theres something with the storage chip. Anyone else having this issue?
Have you tried wiping the cache partition in Recovery Mode? If that doesn't work then I would recommend that you backup your device and perform a hard factory reset. If that doesn't work then your device if faulty and needs to be repaired
I've done everything, reset, cache, odin reflash, wrote to sd cards instead, turned on/off power saving.... same thing, it overheats and shutdowns especially if its hot outside, i cant do anything with it.
just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, started happening after a system update a while back, found that kind of funny and convenient.
interested to try a custom rom, but dont know if i can even modify this latest firmware
Have you tried performing a Hard Factory reset on your device? If this happened after a recent OS update then that might solve your issue.
hi,so i got my phone with china rom which the seller bootunlocked it and changed it to the offical global rom like 6 months ago and from 3 4 weeks agao im facing a really bad problem,before that i got the problem that i tapped one time and the device would think i've tapped 2 times and it closed the app,i thought it's because of the screen protectors.but from 3 weeks ago i'm facing these real problems:
1-phone suddenly freezes for 3 or 4 seconds then it's responsive for like a second and again till i close all apps and then it gets a little better but after i restart which sometimes leads to a boot loop, it doesn't get smooth and normal, even after that,after some time like 30 40 minutes it freezes again. even the keyboard freezes.
2-if the freezing continues i get a "---- app is not responding wait close",sometimes the miui system shows the same error but if i click on the wait it wont crash or such, it justs behaves like it was before showing the error.
3-sometimes after the restart the battery percentage is shown 0, which i'm pretty sure it isn't. upon restarting again the problem solves.
4-sometimes in specific applications my tap is considered a holding and shows me the holding menu.
5-sometimes i get glitches and lines in some parts of google chrome webs which fades by just scrolling,specially if a video is playing on the web page.
the phone didn't got any physical damage in the past.
i've tried these but no avail:
1-updating the miui
2-disabling virtual extension memory
3-factory reset
4-flash and install the offical rom which somehow lead to a bootloop.
5-flash and install the xiaomi eu stable rom which didn't go on a boot loop but the freezing continued
6-flashing and installing the official rom which this time didn't got stuck in a boot loop but right after booting showed me the "miui is not responding" but i setuped the phone and it sill got the freezing problem.
i used multiple benchmarks and even filled my ram with some app to see if it's the stress leading to a freezing but all the scores were perfectly normal even for storage and ram and the phone wasn't freezing during the tests and benchmarks
sorry that the text got too long but i'm really desperate.
Try in safe mode to rule out a buggy 3rd party app. Run for a day or more.
If it fails that it may be a buggy system app.
Otherwise it may be a hardware issue.

so i entered the safe mode but it's a black screen with the text : safe mode under it .then it went to booting itself with some vibrations and the non ending mi logo on the screen.

Sounds like the firmware is corrupted. This normally shouldn't happen.
Possible rootkit, a hardware failure or perhaps a single event upset hit the kernel or bootloader.
A complete reflash (impossible with a locked bootloader!) will purge any malware, remedy a SEU but not resolve a hardware failure.
Make sure all critical data is redundantly backed up now. It may crash and burn at any time running like that. Not good.
Return for warranty repair if possible.
That's my take on it, someone more familiar with that platform may have a better plan.

For the latter a different rom may work if it bypasses the damage.

See my previous edited post. The issue may be the bootloader has been corrupted and/or a hardware failure. You're in way deeper than I ever had to go with the firmware on an Android.

Not if it's locked. Someone may know how to unlock it here, I do not. That may not be the issue though or the root cause... You're welcome but I'm afraid I wasn't much help.
Try some Google searches for that manufacturer and devices with the same issue. Add xda to the searches to search XDA, that works better than the XDA search engine.
Hey all! New here. I just soft bricked my phone, i woke up to it not booting. I tried various fw in Odin, but no success. This is my day to day use phone, I don't have anything else, so I'd like to make it work again ASAP, hopefully without factory reset.
Hi
what manipulation did you do to get there before flashing a lot of stuff in odin?
I've been just pressing the buttons all around, then I read about Odin, so I tried it. Now my battery died, let's see if I can get to wipe the cache...
Update: no success. Is there a way to get it into recovery? the old volume up+bixby doesn't seem to work.
Sometimes its because the recovery itself is error so that button combination is not working..
Charge your battery until full, then factory reset it with odin, let see if that works
But before you do that make sure you download correct fw that match your phone model. dont try all fw available there, make sure you download fw for SM N950F..
Well it worked and it broke again... Back to square one.
Your infos are kinda vague.
Did you modify your phone and it got triggered by user-action, or did it hit the fan by itself?
I think it was a suicide attempt, I never flashed before, only major thing was just a battery change in a samsung service last summer. It's weird, because since last time it turned on again, but seems like the wifi didn't want to communicate, plus as I look back, sometimes it restarted when I touched the wifi or some random setting. Somewhere else I read that it could be a motherboard failure.

This was happening to me too before my phone just started bootlooping to recovery
Well it's been a few months, so a little update: it still reboots sometimes all out of nowhere, but now I have a different problem: tried to log into a mcdonalds app and it says it detects a security issue. Not that i'll cry over it, but definitely interesting. Anyway, I really think this is some sort of hardware issue related to wifi, because every time it started rebooting, about one out of two times i was turning the wifi on or off. Also sometimes the wifi just wasn't available or working, strengthening my thought. As I read on other threads, this is probably some manufacturing/serial issue, that just happens to come forth after all these years. Probably the last time I bought a Samsung...
