Basically, this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1384415
No one responded to that thread because it was in the wrong forum.
I got the "Phone -- ! -- PC" screen, and was attempting to fix it before getting this black screen of death.
Galaxy Nexus GSM
Rooted, Codename ROM, don't think there is a Kernel in there
Carrier: Virgin Mobile
Edit: I won't be able to respond for a couple hours as I'm going to work. Any and all help is much appreciated.
Original post from above thread below:
Hello guys,
I have recently bought my first android phone, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
On the second day I decided to root it since I needed market enabler, as my local market (UAE) has literally no apps.
I rooted using the SDK tools, fastboot and superboot. Everything worked fine for 1 day.
However, the next day, the phone just died on me, and would not boot at all. It kept getting stuck on the "Google" image at startup. At that point, I could still go into the bootloader. I tried locking/unlocking the bootloader again, since that basically wipes all the date on the phone, but it still refused to load, it would get stuck at the startup animation.
After a few more attempts, it kept spam restarting every time I tried to switch it on.
At that point, I was downloading the default OEM ROM so I could reflash that onto the phone. However, I thought I could try using the superboot bat file again, and maybe that would fix the problem. BIG MISTAKE.
As soon as I ran that file, the phone COMPLETELY died. It will not start at ALL, it will not go into Bootloader, not go into Recovery mode, and not even go into Download (odin) mode.
The ONLY possible response you can get from it, is when you plug it into the PC. My PC seems to play that "detection" sound, same sound as when you plug in a USB, but it would just play that sound over and over again, as if im plugging/unplugging a device really quickly. It seems like the phone is continously restarting itself. When I connect the phone to the PC and that disconnect/reconnect sound comes up, I went into my device manager and I could see the following:
An item under "Other Devices" called "OMAP4440" keeps appearing and dissapearing all the time, with the little "!" mark next to it indicating that there is a driver error. The drivers for this phone are fully installed on this same PC, and it use to work fine before it went dead.
Now the problem is since I cant get into any mode whatsoever, its a bit hard to diagnose the phone. I know there is a "recovery" slot at the bottom of the phone that is accessible with a small pin, but I dont for the life of me know how that works or what it does. Does anybody know how to work that or what it actually does?
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks fellas.

What i with my little (almost nothing experience in android) would do its going to another computer with no drivers installed, would download the toolkit and install those drivers, then plug the phone and see what happen, im sure its not bricked since the computer recognice it.. I did lot of stuff with blackberry and there was a lot of ways to recover a phone like that... From here if the toolkit recognice it in any way.. Then you could try to do some of those steps.. As far as i tried doing all kind of stuff to my phone, toolkit its for much the Best Tool and way to do anything to your phone or at least for starters like me
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
But the computer doesn't actually recognize it. The "detection" sound it makes is for an unresponsive device. It won't charge, won't be recognized, and no matter what combo I use, it doesn't turn it.
I played dumb, called Samsung, and now I'm going to send it in. Thanks for the help though.
sometimes my screen goes blank and I have to pull the battery and everything comes back to normal
Hello I need a but of help my Nexus 7 is showing my nothing but the google logo and at the store earlier it showed the android with his chest up and a red triangle. it doesnt even show the moving colors after i turn it on it just sits and says google like a paper weight. i can turn it off and on but nothing more. the geek squad at best buy told me to ask for help here at Xda. last thing i was doing with it was opening deer hunter 2013 and next i go to see if it opened and it stuck on the google logo. can anyone help me fix my tablet? its not under store warranty only manufactures.
Well, sucks to be you.....just kidding...but that does suck. Now, on to more serious matters...
Do you have access to your bootloader? (hold the power button + the vol up button at the same time) If you do, you might want to look into rooting the tablet. Based on the content of your post, I am assuming that you haven't. There is plenty information about rooting the Nexus 7.2 tablet (and just about every other Android device). Simply Google "root Nexus 7 2013" and you will quickly find your answer.
Also, how much do you know about rooting and the sort? I want to know before I waste my time giving details about info that you are aware of.

i dont know anything about rooting. i dont have access to the boot loader. i did a few days ago now it wont even show up, the guy and best buy tried to bring it up and its like it was showing a dead android or something chest open with a red triangle above it. he said someting about maybe have to flash a new or or something like that on to it, it wont show me anything just stays off or shows the google logo when its on
Sigh...that is the bootloader. Maybe...he could have booted into the stock recovery, which shows this or something similar for most devices. Please remember, they are reps...they may know about the software, but usually they speak from their experience or their perspective. I'm glad that he sent you here for a second opinion.
Hold the volume down button and power button to get into the bootloader. You should see some options at the top of the screen saying Start, Restart bootloader, Recovery Mode, Power Off. Not sure if those are the exact options, but it's pretty close.
Also, you need to look into rooting your device. You need to download some files first. You'll need adb, fastboot, and drivers for your Nexus.
And one last thing....what Computer OS do you use? The rooting process is slightly different for each one (Windows 7, 8/8.1, Mac OS, & Linux). If you are into computers, and you have Linux installed on a device, good for you. That is my preference when rooting, as Android is built from Linux, and naturally supported without the need for drivers.
I had similar problems when I first bought it. Going into recovery and resetting the tablet cured it. You will lost all your data BTW.
He's facing the loss of his entire tablet, so I'm sure that data loss isn't the biggest thing to worry about.
But yes, just about every solution involves a clean wipe of data.

I'm stuck on the google logo too. I had my tablet plugged in over night and when I opened the cover this morning it woke up, but as soon I tried to access anything it rebooted and stuck.
I'm unlocked and have tried various thing. NRT doesn't recognize it as an ADB device so I don't think that will work. Fastboot works, but I keep getting "FAILED (remote: flash write failure)" when I try to use the factory flash all, or the instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2381582
I can use fastboot to query the device and get it to return "flo" but it seems like the flash storage has failed.
if it's truly horked, can I use "fastboot oem lock" to relock it and attempt a warranty replacement?

You can try Method 2 from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701
I know it's for the N5, but I used this one for both my Galaxy Nexus, N5 and N7. Since they are all Nexuses (Nexi?), the same general procedures apply. I always prefer to do it all manually, step-by-step, which is why I went with Method 2 in the OP of that thread. Obviously, since this is the N7, just skip the radio flashing command. Everything else is the pretty much exactly the same. If this doesn't work in fastboot, then it's probably a hardware failure.
ok long story short...i was playing on my tablet and i got a notification saying that i needed to update to the new lollipop so in the middle of the install it says there is an error and shuts off. i try to turn it on and it doesnt go past the google logo. i read online and someone said try pushing the volume down button and the power button until a screen pops up...i did that and it doesnt matter which option i choose it takes me back to the google screen. ive called everyone including google to see if a tech support person could help me and there has been no luck with out having to pay for it....the google guy said what probably happened is that ive wiped the OS off the tablet. and i was wondering if there is a way to fix this. ive downloaded the root tool kit but am pretty much lost when it comes to something that percise. the tablet is fully charged but its almost like my computer wont reconize it when i plug it in to do anything with it.. HELP

If you'd searched a bit, you'd have found out that it means your motherboard is screwed, and the only solution is to replace it. But if you have to pay for it, don't let Asus cash in on their deliberate scam - knowingly putting out a buggy update that potentially bricks their device, then turn around and solicit repairs at ridiculous prices. They break it, they should fix it. The point is that they don't even know what or why and thus choose to dodge responsibility by insinuating it's your fault.
Similar thing here. I was sending a text late at night. Sent it and put it down. Next morning tablet was stuck on Google logo and nothing seems to fix it. Tried adb commands to restore. WugFresh Toolkit failed. Disappointed with both Google and Asus.

I have the same problem.
I updated from Kit Kat to Stock Lollipop and the device worked fine then today when I turned it on it would not boot past Google Splash. Will not boot into recovery. I can get into Fastboot mode but my attempts to flash a stock 5.0.2 from google have failed. I have a Nexus 7 2013 wifi Model "Razor" and flashing it in fast boot is not resolving the issue. Just boots to "Google" and stays. From what I have found this is very common on a 5.0.2 update and needs a RMA? is that correct?

Hello everyone,
to this day I was a happy owner of Nexus 5X - it was doing pretty well, I even installed Pure Nexus ROM on this device to make it even better and this is where the trouble begins. Today I was listening to music on my device when it froze. I was like - "yeah, another freeze, I will just reboot my phone". It didn't help. The phone started rebooting, but it froze again and then the screen went black. Forever. Now my device is not responding to any commands, I can not even charge it. I still have few months of warranty left, so this is where my question begins:
is it possible for LG employees to detect that my device was rooted and so to cancel my warranty if the phone is totally dead? I think that the components died.
Thanks for your help. :good:
I had the same thing happen to me 21 days after my warranty expired. They told me the motherboard was bad and it had to be replace, and it was going to cost $72. My device was fully rooted and they made no mention of that when I asked for the full diagnostic report from their technician. I would say it is safe to say they can't tell if it was rooted if you motherboard went out like mine.
- Side note: my phone crashes almost once a day since I've gotten back and had small cracks in the back from where they pried it open. But I can't go without my phone for another 3 weeks again while they fix it.

Sounds TOO familiar. Like exactly what happened to my first N5X mid-March. I was listening to Spotify, the device's software froze and it never turned on again. I connected it to my PC and I happened to have the dreaded Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 error (that's what showed up in Device Manager). The only thing I did different and for the first time before that happened was using F2FS. I have no idea if it's related.

Today the diode started to blink red, I connected Nexus 5X to charger and waited ~30 mins to charge a bit. Then I wanted to flash stock system + recovery and unroot but when booting to recovery device again stopped on Google logo and went black. From this moment no sign of beeing alive. I think I'll wait to this situation to happen again and will try to install stock firmware.
Mine would flash red when the battery was completely drained. I could plug it in and get the battery logo, but if I tried to boot it up; the screen would hit to the Google logo and then just go black. I could wait a day and the red battery light would flash again when I pressed the power button. After a few times of doing this, it wouldn't even charge anymore.
Honestly I seriously doubt they have time to go Sherlock Holmes on your phone and void your warranty. They are most likely going to get your phone see if it boots, if not replace the motherboard and go on.
Not to mention if its not responding to anything at this point what do you have to lose. Send it in and see what happens.
This problem is frequent on the Nexus 5x, V10,V20,G4 and G5, the only issu is to use heat gun on the CPU, these devices will starts normally but the problem will appear again

Same thing happened to me
Same thing happened to me last night. I tried everything I could think of, I was running the latest stock Nougat version with no root and all of a sudden the device froze. After manually powering it down, I could not get it to boot up again. No LED, battery charging icon on the screen, nothing worked, so as it was still under warranty, I got in touch with someone at Google. They've sent me a replacement device that's set to arrive tomorrow and I am to return the faulty one free of charge. Luckily my Nexus 4 still works otherwise I would've missed several calls today. I suggest you get in touch and see what they say. I know of cases where despite the phone being rooted, if they were running stock the warranty was still applicable. With your device being completely dead, you really have nothing to lose.
Okay, update - I was able to reinstall stock firmware via Nexus Root Toolkit on this device, because I booted it into fastboot and it worked for few minutes. Bootloader is still unlocked - should I wait and lock it (I don't know when will my phone be accessible again, red diode is blessing right now because it boots when it's blinking) or should I send it to repair without worrying?
I would lock it.
Okay, yesterday I flashed stock ROM + unrooted and now I locked bootloader. However the device still seems to have something wrong inside - it shows that the custom OS is installed on my phone. Should I flash again or do you recommend something else?
It shows: "Your device has loaded a different operating system". (Yellow).
How can I get rid of it?

Try flashing the latest stock package manually. No toolkits. Sometimes toolkits cause flashing issues.

Thanks for your reply. I succesfully flashed the stock image as you said, but unfortunately I couldn't replace recovery - the phone died and can't boot since yesterday. I'm going to take it to LG service, so keep fingers crossed

No worries, you are in luck.
I tried it with oreo and nougat, but it did not work, it keeps freezing.
So here is the thing, My Nexus 5x went it to bootloop, and nothing seems to work. the screen just froze, and then It started bootlooping. goes to google logo, the reboots again into google logo. Well since I use to intall custom Rom, I just did what I would usually do, reflashed the image. Didn't help. left the phone for a couple of minutes, it booted, got me to start up, and half way of setup, it rebooted again into bootloop. thought maybe the oreo has something to do with it, ate the oreo and reflashed nougat image. didn't help either. just now after a bit of not using it, it gets past the google logo, but the animation freezes, and back to google. tried factory reset and dalvik/cache wipe, didnt help but now i can not get into recovery.
so basically Im screwed. no warranty, no nothing. now Im just stuck with this ****ty windows phone.
Can you help out your fellow comrade with a bootlooping phone? :crying:

Have you flashed the 4core bootimg/kernel/recovery, or have you done absolutely no research?

Also, the fix is really only temporary, I'd prepare to move on to a new phone.

The bootloop is purely a hardware issue. There is no permanent fix except to either get a replacement CPU or send the phone to LG.
Disabling the 2 big cores should allow you to use the phone for another couple of months. Don't expect it to be permanent, though.
i have faced the same issue on mine.

This isn't possible if you have a locked bootloader unless you can somehow get your phone turned on... If I am mistaken I'd love to be corrected so I can fix this. If this really is a hardware issue, then I guess I'm screwed. This phone is just over a year old and Oreo has been installed for a couple weeks, so this pretty much blows.

Just send it in for $10 (UPS with tracking #) to LG and they will put a new motherboard in it. I just did it with my out of warranty 5X that I purchased in May 2016. LG show status "In Warranty" and there was not charge. Phone works faster and better than ever. I upgraded to Oreo an it is running great.
If you need a temp phone buy something like and unlocked (tmobile compatible) phone like I did $70 Alcatel Onetouch Idol 3 until you get your phone back. My project Fi sim works great in that phone I just needed a micro to nano SIM adapter which I got for free at a local cell phone shop.
excuse can you please tell me the detailed process of sending phone to lg .

continuous reboot after Oreo update
Hi,
I am facing issues with my Nexux 5x after updating to the latest version of Android. I received a notification for software update and I did it and as soon as the update was done, the phone started rebooting continously. I tried wiping the cache, factory reset via recovery mode, but nothing actually works. Could anyone of you suggest me some ways to get it corrected or to get the old version back.
Thanks

No, my phone was 1.5 years old and out of warranty. I did not buy an extended warranty. LG extends the warranty on the Nexus 5X well beyond the standard 1 year for the bootloop issue. Also, my phone was in excellent like-new condition.
My 5x was purchased November of 2015, and they covered mine at no cost under warranty. Even provided a mailing label for me to send it in on their dime. They did require me to provide original proof of purchase (which I luckily was able to lookup). I sent it in on a Monday and got it back Friday that same week. Was mind-blowing fast turnaround time.
