No lockscreen or Market/Google Play

Hey there,
So I just got my GSM Galaxy Nexus in the mail today and found a couple things to be a bit odd. You see, my package came with 2 Galaxy Nexuses (or nexi?) and my brother's phone seemed completely normal. It had Android 4.0.4 which he instantly got an update for Jellybean. My phone on the other hand was a bit off, as stated previously. My Galaxy Nexus shipped with Android 4.0.1, when i went to the "about phone" tab, there was no option to even check for a system update, my lock screen doesn't work (security settings are on slide yet the power button just wakes my screen and no sliding to unlock required), I have no market or google play store, I can't add a Gmail account under the "accounts and sync" tab, and my home button wasn't working (factory resetting fixed this).
I'm honestly just stuck on what to do about this device. I've factory reset this device 5 times already and nothing else has worked except for fixing the home button which wasn't working on my initial boot up.
Is there any solution to this Nexus or do I just have a defective one?

In Settings - About Phone, what is your Build Number? Also your brother's?
Any why couldn't you have picked your brother's phone out of the box?

And why couldn't I have picked my brother's? Haha I don't know!

They sent you a phone with an early engineering build. This can be easily fixed by flashing the stock Google image.
Here's a guide with all the info you need. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
If you are in the US flash the takju build. Elsewhere the yakju build.
I'll hang out here for a while. If you have any questions reply here and I'll help!

You won't have a problem with warranty if you are running a stock build.

Ha yeah! The not-so-normal apps that I have on my phone include "Angry GPS", "Dev Tools", and "SUB PBA Test". I checked with my Brother's Nexus running JB and he's got none of those. I called into Google's hotline for Nexus support and was able to get in touch with one of the supervisors. I was told that the device I received was a Developer's Model and that it was the "strangest thing ever".

So, the instructions involve unlocking my bootloader (a task I know very little about!). To be honest, I don't have much experience with the mobile development. The only thing I've done in terms of tweaking with phones is following the instruction with the ace hack kit to root my phone (which seemed a lot more simplier than these instruction) and flashing custom ROMs.
To further my previous question, since the instructions say unlock the bootloader, does that invalidate my phone's warranty if I were to return anytime within its warranty period with an unlocked bootloader running stock android? (Would they even check/realize?)
And lastly, how safe is this procedure (returning the stock?) Is there a chance to brick my device?

You need to unlock your bootloader to flash the images. You can always relock your bootloader if you wish. You won't have an issue with the warranty.
Flashing the images the way I provided is a good way to learn the basics and will be beneficial in the future. It's very easy to learn. Just follow the link step by step. Flashing with fastboot is the safest way to do things and there is a very small chance of you bricking your phone.
Also what did google tell you to do when you called them?

I just got another Nexus from Play Store.
It's in developer mode, without Google apps and filled with a bunch of testing tools, like AngryGPS and Screen Test, the same menu in this image from maschiosoosa.
I tried to call Google Support and they give me two options.. One is doing exactly what everybody does.. Flash a stock Google image (but they said: "it's a very difficult way" lol) or the second, they will call Samsung for a replacement.
It's not a defective device, but it's kind of getting a Windows 8 Consumer Preview. A thing that it's not finished yet. Shame on Goole. lol
I'll flash of course.. It seems the bootloader is unlocked and its probably easy to do the flash thing.
Hey BrokeEven, if you got your device from Play Store you can ask for a replacement (if you are not sure of the flash image).
And probably your bootloader is already unlocked (at least if you received this same dev tool device).

Thank you, I'm gonna give it a shot!
When I called Google and talked to one of the supervisors, he was almost excited to hear about such an "interesting" story and said, "It looked like you may have gotten a rooted or developers model" and "If i got a dev model, I'd just keep it haha - but that's just me" I proceeded to ask him about whether or not it'd be a safe idea to keep the phone and do my own tweaking and such. He responded by telling me that even if i was to safely flash back to stock, it'd be "hard to prove" to Google or Samsung that I hadn't tampered with it. He was a cool guy
So let's say I did in fact get a rooted model by mistake, is there any way I'd be able to figure out if the bootloader is locked or not (even though rooted doesn't necessarily mean it has an unlocked bootloader)?

Reboot your device and check if theres a unlocked locker at the bottom of the Google logo screen.

Reboot the phone, when it's rebooting (showing google logo) if there's unlocked sign (lock that is unlocked) under the google logo, then it's unlocked Nexus. If you only see Google logo, then it's just locked Nexus

I don't know whether this is a curse or a blessing... I remembered when i ordered this phone I said "meh, I'm not gonna bother with rooting and flashing ROMs. I'll just stick to stock. And so Google sends me a Nexus with an unlocked bootloader and now force me to flash back to stock (or root) in order to get my phone fully functional
One pic is my unlocked bootloader, the other is a picture of my ALL the apps on my phone

Cool so you are already unlocked. Just download the images and flash away!

Just one question and this may be a simple one...
It's step 8 under subsection C. What does it mean to open the command prompt in the same directory? And sorry in advance! I need you to be very simple in explaining this to me. To my knowledge, I thought you just open the command prompt. How do you open the command prompt in the same directory?

My son wanted to root his brand new phone. i have rooted 8 phones from different phones before with success..... but this time i f***d up...
Accedently installed this on his phone.
http://wccftech.com/flash-and-root-nexus-5-on-android-6-0-1-mmb29k/
executed flash-all.bat and it flashed the bootloader.
For the wrong phone...
It should have been this one..

Missed the X......
Now the phone will not even boot any more at all....cant enter bootloader.......does not power up at all.!!!
Jesus...what have i done.......
It here any chance at all to fix this somehow?

Hello and thank you for using Q/A,
because you can't enter bootloader, you can't do anything. You can try to send the phone to Google. Say: It didn't boot after OTA Update.
Kind regards

Yeah it's most likely a paperweight. Try sending it to Google. Flashing the wrong firmware destroys a phone as you probably already know

I am totally aware of that....
but somehow one must be able to flash the bootloader from scratch....
Normally via special software etc.
That´s what i was hoping for....

Only thing I know to use is a riff box to jtag it. Not sure if they have one for 5x.

Your use of the period seems rather condescending. And no, you as the end user cannot fix that. You did one of the few things that is unrecoverable unless you manage to get the bootloader to accept adb commands somehow.

Well. the bootloader is flashed into the phone from the beginning aswell during manufacturing. I work with electronics and software and i know there is always a way to reflash the bootloader. All the electronics comes in the beginning with no software at all, one only needs the proper software/hardware. Most probably by jtag....or if they have some other special tool for snapdragon 808.
Stupid of me not to see that the version i flashed was not for nexus 5X...and only for nexus 5

Good luck. Will Google not rma it?

[Q] Safe to relock bootloader via fastboot? No custom kernels / ROMs

[SOLVED] I followed this thread to get everything updated and make sure I was all stock, and then went to bootloader and ran fastboot flashing lock to relock the bootloader. Everything working great now.
I'm trading my Verizon Pixel XL for a normal Pixel, and need to relock the bootloader first. I haven't installed a custom kernal or ROMs or anything, so can I just lock via fastboot safely?
I don't want to do something that will brick it!
I'm aware this is stupid and I'd rather just leave it, but dude is sketched out by warning on startup and won't trade till it's gone :/
Thanks!
[Edit] it should maybe be noted that I haven't installed any updates since rooting, and I'm not sure if those are important first or not?

Did I brick my device? :(

I was on 8.1 with Flash Kernel installed using images...I wanted to get back to stock...so unchecked OEM Unlocking in Developer Options, went to bootloader and locked bootloader using fastoboot flashing lock..and now I am getting "Can't find valid operating system. The device will not start". I can't unlock the bootloader now as I unchecked OEM unlocking in Developer Options and can't flash factory images also as it says Flashing is not allowed in Lock State, Did I brick the device?
Update: I have returned my device to Google and they processed a replacement

i am just curious, how were planning on flashing a rom with locked bootloader?

Yea, I think you may have turned it into a fancy paperweight. Been there, done that. You should have waited to uncheck OEM unlocking until after you locked the bootloader, which wiped your phone. About the only thing I can suggest is to try and run Deuces script to see if you can rescue your device. Best of luck to you.

Sorry for your loss, but you indeed have a fancy paperweight.
However I wonder if there isnt the QCom USB mode or something like that that exist on older devices, where you can access the phone partitions at a lower level and then restore whatever partitions is broken.

You cannot flash full images, but you can still flash OTAs... download the full OTA instead, and install (sideload) it from the stock recovery. Be sure to select the SAME build number you were on to begin with- eg. If you were on 8.1, use the 8.1 OTA. There will be a mode there for "Apply update from ADB". You put the phone into "sideload mode" and then send the OTA to the phone via adb. This will work regardless whether you have usb debugging enabled or not. Follow the directions given on the included link.

I didn't. They are still paperweights sitting in a drawer!

I got the same message yesterday after doing... God knows what. I can't even remember what went wrong.
My first thought was to flash a factory image. But it didn't helped at first. Probably, because i was trying to flash another factory image and not the one that came as stock on my phone.
So if you don't remember, which image it was, try all of them Hopefully, you'll get your phone booted again.

My first reaction was, is this april fools day? Is this an xda style joke? unchecked oem unlock?

Meh...you know how it is bro....**it happens!

Call google and just tell them your device wont boot all of a sudden; they will probably ask you to factory restore in the recovery, say the phone wont get past the google image. They will RMA that boy for you. You totally bricked. For future reference if you unlock the bootloader, dont waste your time trying to lock it again. Should have just fastboot flashed a factory image in the bootloader and called it a day. Having a unlocked bootloader doesn't effect you in anyway negatively.

Well I never said it was the moral thing to do haha; but this guys best bet is to call Google and see if they will RMA it.

It was my fault for the brick but they didn't care.

I told them I had an unlocked boot-loader and installed twrp. I had to send them back my old phone and they put a $500 hold on my account, once they received the device and determined the issue was real, they released the hold on my account. In that period of time they could have determined "Oh he bricked the device with twrp" lets charge him $500 for a new one, but they didn't. I mean whats wrong with calling Google and seeing if they will RMA it; sure the OP made a bad mistake but you have not because you ask not.

Getting rid of the Unlocked bootloader message

Hello,
I wanted to ask if there is a way to remove the unlocked bootloader message. I find this message very annoying and ugly. On my older OnePlus X there was a way to get rid of this message, so I thought that there might be a way on the OnePlus 5T.

Yes, simply re-lock the bootloader and it's gone.

No way. The price to pay for benefits of root...

I don't think you can do it unless you want to risk a hard brick.

On the phones I know of if it being eliminated its not actually eliminated, its just hidden. The message is replaced with an image of something else.
Here is an example utility (Nexus 5X)
Just looks like the boot image needs unpacked, modified, repacked, and flashed?

well, you can change it by flashing splash image... see in Moto G5s plus thread there is a solution....

No, it works differently in the OP5T. I don't think it's possible on our device. There's already a thread about this somewhere that explains it in more detail.

I understand that's what you want. So be a man, live with it or re-lock the bootloader. It's not like you would have to stare at that notice for hours.

Yes because on the Moto this very message is a graphic in a separate partition. On the OP it's baked into the bootloader. Since this is the thing that's also signed with private keys etc., it's (as of today and someone else finds a way) impossible to change.

No they're not, not really. They're modifying dumps of the imgdata partition, which is flashed as part of the factory bootloader.img but it's not an actively run bootloader partition (like aboot, xbl, sbl, etc are), and so not verified the same on-device and can be changed without bricking the device.
