Hi guys I got the lollipop OTA for my nexus ( completely stock), never tinkered with it and the OTA installed but now its stuck on "google" screen and constantly bootloops. I have done some reading and I tried to unlock bootloader via Wugfresh toolkit and normal fastboot oem method but no avail, it gets stuck on the "yes" option.
Basically I have a locked bootloader which fails to unlock, and nexus stuck in google logo, any guidance will be much appreciated. Plz point me towards the right direction. :crying:
Try to unlock the bootloader from adb with OEM unlock command. The steps are posted above the factory images on Google's dev site.
yeah I tried that and tablet gets stuck on the yes option at unlock bootloader screen and nothing happens for 20 minutes , i have to restart it. I've read around and it seems like my emmc might have corrupted. Any pointers?

Well I can only think of one thing. Buy a new nexus. There aren't any listings for the Wi-Fi version and the LTE on Swappa. However there is some other devices on Swappa.
Hi,
i got a m8 which i unlocked via htcdev and it want to send it for warranty repair now.
The problem is that the phone won't boot!
I plug in the charger and nothing happens. After a couple of MINUTES the led shows up and the phone charges. But only sometimes.
With a little luck i can get into recovery and reinstall Viper or Leedroid ROM. But after successfuly installing the phone won't reboot and just turns off after the htc screen.
No matter what i try, it doesn't boot. But from time to time i can reach recovery.
So what can i do with in bootloader or recovery?
The biggest problem is the htc screen which is full of the red "not official release" stuff. How can i put this back to stock?
Thanks
Daniel
it would help greatly if we knew your CID and MID.
It's a unlocked non-carrier phone from germany. I think HTC_102 but i'm not absolutely sure.
Now nothing happens anymore besides the phone shows up as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM20)" in the device manager. When putting the Charger / Cable in the charging light flashes one time. If i put the charger just halfway in it lights up for about 2-3 seconds and turns off.

They won't take it back for warranty, because by unlocking the bootloader, you void your warranty. Your best bet is to flash RUU. Can you get the computer to recognize the phone by fastboot? Can you get the phone to boot into boot loader at all?
And also, have you made any modification prior to the incident other than unlocking bootloader?

At the moment - no. It won't even boot into bootloader. The last try is now a new battery. I opened it because HTC refuses the warranty anyway and maybe the battery is the problem. I don't think so but for 6 Euros I give it a try.

What modifications have you made to the phone prior to the incident other than unlocking the boot loader? Custom ROM, custom kernel or TWRP

This is the strange thing. I sent my m8 to HTC and they replaced the Mainboard. So the phone was completely new and stock. As the warranty was in the last days after this i immediately unlocked the bootloader officially using htcdev. Then I installed TWRP and MIUI 7 after this. Then I noticed the first time the phone was not turning on. It happened after unlocking but as I did the unlock immediately it maybe wasn't because of it. But as it is not my main phone I didn't really care and put it away. Now, about 3 months later I want to use it as my main phone for drone flying and I flashed Viper ROM and after it didn't boot LeeDroid. And now it doesn't turn on no matter what I do. Before I could manage to get into bootloader sometimes at least. I think the new main board has a defect but after 3 months, with no warranty and HTC unlocked they don't give a ****.

Yeah if you unlock the boot loader, you void your warranty

I know but I didn't make something wrong. I unlocked every bootloader of every phone and tablet I ever had so I think it's even the battery or a defective replacement Mainboard.

IDK but im going to say to try to boot into bootloader and the problem would be much easier to solve. If you manage to boot into bootloader, don't exit it and post here the 'fastboot getvar all' command on here. use this link from my google drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2FyBGshXWIxeHdPRy1zWXdwM1E/view?usp=sharing to get the adb.zip if you have a windows computer. extract the zip file, go into the adb bundle folder, sdk, platform-tool press shift and right click at the same time and select open command prompt here and type in fastboot getvar all (your phone have to be in fastboot mode.in bootloader, select fastboot) and post the results here.
Ok first let me start off by saying that I'm an idiot and did something really stupid. I was rooted with an unlocked bootloader on Android 8.1 preview was trying to return to stock and stupidly I locked the bootloader before flashing a factory image. Now I'm stuck on the bootloader screen, if I try to boot it flashes the white screen with the Google logo for a split second then starts going into bootloops. When I tried fastboot oem unlock it says "remote oem unlock not allowed". Does anyone know if there is a way to recover my phone or did I make a very expensive mistake?

From what I know across all devices, a very expensive mistake. :/.
For future reference, yet again, for everyone. PLEASE READ. If you want to relock the bootloader, only do so after you actually boot into the new OS.
Reboot into recovery and factory wipe it. That is your only chance, and it's slim.
RMA
Sideload ota through your recovery.
My pixel 2 xl got real hard brick, and I need some method to restore.
I tried LG UP with download mode, (Connect USB with volume +), It is impossible cause i could not find tot or kdz firmware for Pixel 2 XL.
Any help? T^T,,,,,
And also can you suggest me where can i buy pixel 2 xl's motherboard/logic board?
Contact Google if you have the packaging unless you bought it second hand. It's under warranty

Thank you for replying.
Everything got locked.. Bootloader locked of course, even OEM locked.
If i can boot into recovery, I can recover with OTA. and everything will be ok..
but OS has not installed, so It shows "Can't find valid operating system". (Status is same just like as Google's "NO OS on Pixel 2 XL" mistake)
I'm stupidest person in 2018. :crying::crying::crying:

Whatever you did doesn't make you stupid my friend. I've bricked 2 phones myself on my android learning experience. If you can get into recovery, you should be able to side load an OTA. Then again, I bet you already tried that.

I can get into fastboot, but oem locked, bootloader locked, so I can't do anything with fastboot. just reboot command works well.

Then you should at least try deuces recovery script. Who knows, it might work :good:
Or you can go to the proper people, aka google, stop doing whatever shady mess your doing and be careful next time.

You can load the factory image from Google regardless if you're still OEM locked or not.
It's a signed image from Google... Signed images are accepted by the phone always.
The point of unlocking is to use unsigned images from developers other than google.

No. Even google said if user want to flash factory images, whatever it is stock & signed, user should unlock OEM and even bootloader. (Reference : https://developers.google.com/android/images)
I did several times, it didn't work without it.
I sent LG, because i live in korea.
It will be fine.
Thanks!

Unlock your bootloader and reflash factory image. Also, this is Pixel XL section.
