Did you update to 4.4.2?
Besacuse If you update the bootloader are experiencing the same problem as many of us.

You are speaking about scripts at boot. But you did not refer to the updater script that actually flashed the Rom. Also what Rom are you trying to flash ? What is your current bootloader and Recovery ?

Maybe I missed something, but if you can get download mode, you should be able to use Odin. Have you tried reinstalling drivers?

"Set metadata recursive" probably means you are using a recovery that is too old.

@Spud37
Yes, it means your recovery is outdated. Here is a download link for the latest TWRP that you can flash in Odin as PDA. http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/hercules/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-hercules.tar

Well there is another issue with my phone that I have actually worked around for awhile now. The MircoUSB on the phone is broken. I bought an extra battery and swap it, I also just use the SD card to copy anything to the phone. Is there a way for me to flash the phone with the new TWRP from the sd card. Why would the older TWRP not install CM 10.2.0 ROM? Do I have to go older perhaps? Thanks though. Knowing is half the battle
EDIT: Going to try and install 10.1.0 and see if it will let me boot. I figure once I can get it to boot, it will be easier to update the Recovery on the phone.
EDIT 2: No problems or errors occured when I installed CM 10.1.0.zip. However it still got stuck in a boot loop. I did however find a file called superwipe for the T mobile S2. I am wondering if that could help
EDIT 3: Okay so the superwipe worked and i am now running 10.1.0, Is it possible to install a Recovery from the phone without using odin?

What all did you wipe when you installed 10.1? There is a way to update the recovery if you can get the phone to boot. What is the latest thing you got to boot on your phone?

I had wiped everything, formatted and fixed permissions, it didn't work. It wasn't until i found the Superwipe that installation worked and i was able to boot to 10.1.0. How can i update/change the recovery from the phone.

It is a lot more risky if your usb port doesn't work, since you can't flash back to stock in Odin if something goes wrong. I would recommend that you get someone to fix that USB port before you make too many changes.
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. These changes could brick your phone if something goes wrong. Proceed at your own risk!
Okay, now for the tutorial. These instructions are assuming that you are already rooted. Download this file and make sure you check the md5sum. Rename it to TWRP.img and move it to /storage/sdcard. This will make the next steps easier. If you move the file somewhere else, make a note of the location of the file. If you have not already, install the terminal emulator app form the Play Store. Open it and type the following lines in it.
Code:
su
[CLICK ENTER]
Code:
dd if=/storage/sdcard/TWRP.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
(Change the path to wherever you moved the file to) [CLICK ENTER]
Reboot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik. Reboot. If recovery says that system recovery will override it on reboot, click fix. This should update your recovery.
Have a good afternoon,

modified changes revert back after rebooting the device

my device has been running cm11 unofficial version for quite sometime now.. the 20140921 version.. but recently I've started having a problem that the phone restarts suddenly.. so., i tried doing a fresh flash again.. but i keep getting the assert error. and the phone restarts. I have the recovery image which grarak had posted in the thread. But i donno how to use it. And now the problem has worsened because once I install any new app, the phone restarts on its own and after which it restores it back to the time when the app wasnt there.. I'm not able to make any new nandroid backups too coz the device restarts again.. I thought it might be a CWM error, so I tried flashing TWRP.. but its again an img file which i donno what to do.. sighs. .. and also, if i try to do a fresh flash of the official version of cm11 now, using the recovery i have now, will it show the assert error again?? thanks a lot in advance... hope someone can get me out of this mess..

actually this problem is much more serious than that.... my device has kinda frozen in the present state... if i uninstall any apps and then restart the device the app remains there itself.. and if I try to install a new app, after restart, the app is nowhere to be seen.. so, in short, i cant install any new apps or make modifications to the previous ones... I'm not even able to install any other recovery due to this... it seems like there is some problem with the R/W rights.

Youll have to boot into fastboot and flash the recovery. Press and hold volume up + power until the phone shuts down, then hold volume down + power until you get into Hboot. Then scroll down with the volume keys and select fastboot.

Use THIS recovery.img file. Flash that in fastboot, reboot into recovery, then do a full wipe (factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, /system, /boot) and reflash the newest official CM11 nightly.

Ok let's see, so your saying that the device won't allow to read or write, meaning 1 of 2 things.
Either you lost root access by uninstalling or modifying something, or
your device has accumulated too much background information / app data and it won't allow it to make any more changes due to limited or in other words, there's no space.
If you have CWM 6.0.4.7 then you will get the assert error every time. This is just to make sure you do have it flashed.
First thing's first.
-Go into your bootloader and go into fastboot mode. Plug it into the PC and it will say fastboot USB.
-Now download and run this .exe:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7nn4a5xzx2pw7as/CWM_Recovery_en.exe?dl=1
-This will flash the latest 6.0.5.1 CWM automatically.
1. Now that you have the latest recovery installed,
-Boot into the recovery and wipe the CACHE and go into advanced options and wipe DALVIK CACHE. Do not press factory restore.
-Hit reboot device and test by installing an app to see if this fixes the issue.
2. If it still reboots after installing an app then download this .zip:
http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip?retrieve_file=1
-Put this zip on your SD card/internal storage
-Go into CWM and flash this .zip.
-Reboot the device and test again.
3. If BOTH of these steps failed then you will need to freshly install CM11.
-While the device is still on, put the latest CM11 on your device or recycle the same one that your using if you prefer its stability.
-Boot back into CWM and do a factory restore.
Factory restore is almost ALWAYS necessary for every time you flash CyanogenMod unless it is an update that specifically states it can be "dirty flashed" which is just a way of saying you flashed it without wiping all your information - data/cache/dalvik off of it.
Let me know how this goes for you. :laugh:

Yeah i already had the CWM 6.0.5.1 running on my device, but I flashed it again just in case.... That didnt solve the issue.
Next I flashed the Super SU zip from my SD card(since anything I place in my internal storage vanishes once I reboot... even if rebooted in my recovery) That again didnt solve the problem
I did a fresh install of CM11, 20140921 which I am running at present due to the stability issue you mentioned.. (have tried with the official nightly a couple of times to no avail)... It shows the assert error just as before, all the time.
And yes, all the apps I uninstalled came back again, as always Completely out of any more ideas... And also I get quite many error messages often " so and so app stopped responding" and stuff

Did you try wiping JUST the Cache and the Dalvik cache WITHOUT doing a factory restore? These options are in CWMR.
Also, what is your device model? (a5_dug/chl/dwg/ul etc.)

Bootloop after flashing TWRP, CM13

I'm (or rather, was) on CM13 nightly, today I downloaded TWRP through Flashify and flashed it, previously I was using Philz Touch, now I have a bootloop. I just had a bootloop a few days ago and had to install everything over again, and I really don't feel like doing it again. What can I do?

Yes I can, but I reeeeeally don't feel like going back to stock AGAIN, I was thinking maybe flashing CyanogenMod Recovery would help fix the issue since TWRP is apparently not compatible with Marshmallow, the problem is I can't get my PC to recognize my phone in fastboot mode therefore I can't flash the new recovery. Any ideas?

Wipe as usual, then in TWRP go to mount and choose external_sd, after that navigate up until you find the folder external_sd and load from there

You don't need to go back to stock. If you can enter recovery, you can wipe system (only) and dirty flash your cm13 over it. It usually works and dont lose your personal files nor installed apps. If it don't, do a full wipe and flash your rom again.

Nexus 5x in google logo. Cannot flash factory image

I wanted t oinstall Cm13 so booted into bootloader and unlocked it.
Then I installed TWRP 2.8.7.2 as my recovery. Then booted into recovery and flashed CM13 of 20/12.
It then started bootlooping the bootanimation. I waited for half an hour. The phone became heated and I switched it off.
I then decided to go back to stock 6.0.1 but I could flash using flash-all.sh. I then decided to flash manually each image and was able to flash boot, cache and recovery. But cannot flash system and vendor. Can someone help me i this.
Can anyone provide a twrp backup that I can use. (I didn't do a backup myself).
Please can someone help. Just bought the phone 2 days back. Please help.

There is no error. When I manually try to flash system or vendor there is the message sending 'vendor' or sending 'system' and gets stuck with that message. waited for almost half an hour and still no change.
When I booted into twrp, it says cannot mount /vendor and /system.
Edit : I use Linux by the way.

well, interesting. i've never experienced problem like you have... have you already tried to do it in windows? or install TWRP v2.8.7.0 and format partitions in that version and then reflash original ROM. but remember, with 2.8.7.0 you wont be able to flash CM13 (at least on my N5X i wasn't....)

Shouldn't you be using the latest twrp 2.8.7.2? Ive had issues flashing roms without using the latest version. You could also have issues with older versions of twrp and encryption. Id suggest wiping data from twrp and then flashing the factory image from bootloader.

Im in the exact same situation and my fastboot is broken. My PC isnt recognizing a device is attached anymore. No system or vendor mount in twrp

I think to be able to really do anything you need to get into bootloader and have fastboot recognize the device. Make sure the files from 6.01 are all correct and you're flashing in the right order. Follow the guide item #8 http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206930 If you can get the system.img and vendor.img flashed and then lock the bootloader it will wipe everything to factory, internal storage included. If you do that you must have stock recovery.img flashed as well. If downloading system.img hangs reboot and try it again.

I got it to work. I just had to change the USB port.
Why don't you try a different USB port or a different cable. Or even try on a different computer.
