Install factory image without connecting to computer? - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Nexus 5X (LGH791 MODEL) which is having issues charging or connecting to a computer. It will charge slowly but will not connect to any computer that I try. Every time I get a USB error "USB Device Not Recognized. Device Descriptor Request Failed".
Is there any way to revert back to stock using the google factory images (or some other means) WITHOUT having to connect to a computer and use fastboot?
The device is currently rooted, has TWRP installed, and has the July 5 OTA update installed (was able to flash that part using Flashfire).
Thanks for any help, and apologies if I failed to explain any parts clearly!

With Flashfire you can flash factory images. For slow charging try another cable. Cheap cables do not fast charge some times.

I tried flashing the factory image with Flashfire but it only updated the system partition. It seemed to error when it tried to flash stock recovery. Also, it's not recommended to flash the modem or bootloader partitions using Flashfire. Even the app itself says not to do it.
Also, i have tried 4 different cables/outlet power supplies. The phone says it's charging rapidly, but i'm only showing about 260mah charging speed when checking it with an app like Ampere.

I flashed the latest OTA using Flashfire and selecting full flash including recovery, and it still did not wipe out TWRP... i have no clue why it's doing this... :/

Before you flash anything, make sure your USB connector is free of compacted lint. I had the same problem with my N5X a few months ago, it would charge, but not rapidly, and it wouldn't recognize that it was connected to a computer. The problem turned out to be pocket lint that had become compacted at the bottom of the USB port, it was preventing the USB connector from making full contact with the USB cable. Take something non-conductive with a sharp point (the toothpick from a swiss army knife works) and gently dig around a bit in the bottom of the USB connector well.

Been there and checked that unfortunately. I even went so far as to take it to a repair shop and they replaced the USB c port completely. Still won't charge fast nor connect to my PC :/

Have you rebooted your computer? Reinstall driver? Perhaps try another USB port...

tried all of those.
Are you using Kies for the drivers? I thought Kies interfered somehow and it was recommended to just install the full driver setup standalone.
Also, have you tried a different pc yet?
Also make sure you have USB Debugging enabled.

Possibly. Have you tried to odin the one-click-root back to stock rooted yet?
First thing I would do personally. Also, swap cables again and try a different usb port. I would plug into the rear usb if possible too. Front usb ports are prone to interference since they're wired via a cable from the motherboard. And do not use a usb extension cable (found this out the hard way too). Good luck.

Agreed with previous poster - you may be bricked, seems oddly familiar to this issue:
Stuck at "Data.img" thru Odin
As sfhub has mentioned you can and should try the Odin OC again to confirm. But if it says the same it's fairly certain that the eMMC is damaged and the phone is bricked.
If you try again and it has the same results you may want to post more details on that thread. It's been a good attempt to try and document each person's case and try to find what is causing this to happen. The more info the better to troubleshoot, such as what you tried to flash and how you were flashing (were you going back to GB + CWM to flash ICS, for example)

[Q] Can I get root w/o USB?

So the short question is if there is any way for me to get root without a working usb port?
Last week I plugged in to charge my phone overnight with the phone off. In the morning, I was surprised to find that the screen was on and what should have been a full green battery was instead a scrambled image that kind of looked like a battery. I powered on the phone and it worked so I thought nothing of it but later on that night I needed to pull a file off my phone via usb and realized that the phone will no longer detect the usb host, ie. no mtp options whatsoever. It at least does still charge.
Since then I have tried cleaning the usb connector, pulling the battery/sim, setting the UART using *#7284#(PDA, mtp+adb), multiple computers, and multiple cables(including the Samsung one) and the phone still doesn't ever think its connected to a host. So today I decided to use my php warranty service which meant I had to restore stock recovery and rom. So I grabbed mobile odin and a stock UVLDJA image. Ran Triangle away once to clear the counter, and another time to verify it was at zero, and installed the full image via mobile Odin. When the phone booted back up, it successfully installed the rom only the flash counter is back at one and now I have lost root. If I had used my head I should have flashed just the recovery first but I wasn't thinking....
Any suggestions on how to get root back? I read these forums quite a bit and I am thinking that I am SOL but hoping maybe someone has a suggestion I haven't seen yet.

Checking your flash counter in TA trips your counter, that's why it's at 1. Use mobile Odin to flash root66 to get rooted again.

Oh, duh! Yes lol you do. There would be no other way. Have you tried a factory reset then try to connect your phone? You could also try to install Kies on your PC to make sure all drivers are correctly installed.
If you wouldn't have said you have tried other cables, I would have for sure thought defective cable. Some cables are also charge only.

Yeah, did the factory reset along with all of the other suggestions I could find. I typically try to avoid Kies and since I cannot even get the device to enumerate I'm pretty sure it's not driver related.
I think my only hope would be getting root or twrp intalled via stock recovery or adb over wifi.
Thanks, I appreciate the help.
download Odin3 v1.85
Put your phone in download mode (vol down=menu=power then after the screen comes up press vol up
plug the phone usb to the computer,
run odin
the first box on the top left should have a colored highlight (the ID:COM )
if that pops up, your phone is 99% functioning correctly, and only problem is in your computer.
When trying do do a regulad usb transfer to the computer:
I have noticed, sometimes I have to connect, wait a bit (like maybe 2 minutes)
then disconnect the cable for about 15 sec then connect again, and it pops up after a minute
you could also try this:
open explorer on the computer(double click on my computer) and see if there is a t999 in your left pane. Sometimes the autorun function in the
computer gets farkled and it does not open automatically and you have to do it manually,
Good luck & Aloha !
Go to galaxys3root.com and follow his t.mobile root tutorial WORD FOR WORD. USE THE USB THE PHONE CAME WITH AND KILL SAMSUNG KIES. also run Odin before you connect the phone to Pc, should be no problem bruh once it took me a couple of hours making love to my comp before I got a colored com box. And use a windows PC Mac suxx for this kind of.

I've basically given up trying to get the usb port working... I am convinced this is a hardware issue. Nothing shows up in the device manager when I plug in the phone whether USB debugging is on/off or I am in normal mode or download mode. The phone will never bring up the MTP options in the notification bar either. Again this is with multiple cables on 2 different comps where it used to work just fine. I think whatever bad charge experience I had last week damaged the USB host controller on the phone.
I think what looks promising now is using adb over wifi(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26844535) along with root via adb(http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-u-s-canadian-dual-core-galaxy-s3-on-mac-osx/). I can't do this at work but I'll follow up tonight on what will hopefully be success in case this could help someone else out.
Edit: Ugh, some quick googling shows that I need either root or working USB to make adb over wifi work.

I don't think so.... the micro usb port is mounted on the main board and short of replacing that entire board it would be a ton of time/effort for something that I don't exactly think is the problem.

This happened to me, and it was from using different devices in the same port (with same cable). I switched ports and it worked. Might not work for you, but worth a mention - it really stumped me and I tried everything including restoring the OS to an earlier point.

Now that S3's are getting older, more people will be losing their functional USB ports. I found holding the phone vertically with steady even pressure on the plug was the trick to getting a solid connection on my flaky port, at least enough to get stock back (to send it back). That was the longest 15 minutes of my life (OK, not, but it was in the top 10, mostly because it was simultaneously nerve-wracking and insanely boring).
I tried de-soldering a usb port on a Galaxy S. Yeah.... To say it mildly, the way Samsung sets them up is booby-trapped. You can't get the existing silver solder hot enough to melt without toasting the board somehow. The boards are also wafer-thin and dimensional on both sides. Despite generally having a knack for fine tuning and detail work (thanks to estrogen or something), I felt like an ogre in a doll house. I definitely would suggest having all the (exactly) right tools in place before tackling it. Even then it might not be the port itself, but something between the actual port and the other components.
One other thing to note, Mobile Odin is an amazing tool, but it's even ***more crucial*** than regular Odin to get your ducks in a row before you flash. Know exactly what you are flashing what your next steps are, and what your results are supposed to be. One thing in particular: if you flash a stock ROM, it includes stock recovery, and you will lose root. make sure you've run Triangle Away before you flash stock (which won't trigger your counter, but anything else will).
I plan to keep the Triangle Away and Mobile Odin apk's ready on ExtSD to install, and a copy of a stock image (ROM) as well, from now on, on all my phones. You never know when that port is going to give up the ghost.
Just thought I'd add a couple things here. More times than not, when someone thinks their usb port on the phone is bad, it's actually just the cable. Even if the cable works on something else, or works to charge the phone. They ruin much, much, more easily than anyone wants to believe! Especially when you plug/unplug it as often as with a phone.
As for Mobile Odin, I fully agree! It's one of my favorite apps by far! But if you're going to keep stock firmware handy, which I highly recommend, you may as well keep the root66 version. Flash back with that, then run triangle away, then in SuperSU, choose full unroot. Then all you need is a factory reset. Making TA the last step makes for far fewer user mistakes.

[Q] Phone bricked - usb port not functioning

BACKSTORY - Prior to the JB update, I'm not sure if it happened with ZV9 or ZV8, but I was getting the "slow charging" message when plugged into a PC (didn't matter what cable I used) AND I could no longer do any data syncs.
I'm not sure if it dirty connectors, a bad charging port, rooting, or an earlier update that caused this. As I said, it hasn't mattered what cord I used. (LGOG, LG Marquee, HTC Evo Shift, Nexus 7, generic cords from Fry's, etc)
Now I've soft bricked my phone after a stupid brain-fart, and I can't get Windows to recognize the phone is connected, thus LGNPST won't work. I've tried on 4 PCs.
Anyone run across this or have any thoughts other than sending it in for repairs? I don't have TEP.

I can get into stock recovery. When I try to get into fast boot, I just get a blinking LED.
The only options for updates are from cache (empty) or from ADB (can't connect).

No. I didn't think it would work as I changed/added files in /system which is was caused this mess. So the reset wouldn't remove them, would it?
Same with a battery pull. When it powered back on, I would be back where I am now.

Nope. Still had the security error on boot. I took it into a sprint repair center today, and they couldn't get it to connect either. They checked the charging port. The pins were intact and it was still soldered tightly to the board, so it should have connected. Even thought I don't have TEP, the phone was under a year old, so they are replacing with another unit for $50.

Need help. accidentally wiped os after flashing recovery and now have trouble

So I have had this device since February and finally decided I wanted to Unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery and get some cool new roms on it. I have the GPE by the way.
Anyways so I unlocked the bootloader and flashed TWRP and then rooted the device by flashing a zip file for root. I assumed the tablet got rooted so I then decided to try the multi window hack and flashed that. Well it caused some apps to corrupt (the phone app in particular) and they would keep crashing preventing me from doing anything. I decided to go back into recovery and try to do a data and cache wipe but that did not help. Eventually I wiped the entire OS which was a mistake. I was still able to get into recovery mode but I have no SD card to load up with a rom to flash and it was late to go buy one. I also tried ADB through the recovery mode that did not seem to work.
I did some searching and found out that I could download the LGMlauncher and it could get me back to stock but to use that I needed my serial number which is on the box (which I had at the office). So I plugged it in (and got the little battery icon) and a few hours ago went to the office to get the box. I tried the LGMlauncher and it keeps on crashing while trying to update and now I am not able to get into recovery mode. What are some other steps I can take to try and recover it?
Thanks.
Edit: I tried the LGMlauncher again and it said my battery was low so I plugged it back in. is there a trick to charging it while it is off? I assume that could be why recovery mode wont work.

Yeah It appears as though the battery was not charging even though I had plugged it in and now it is dead. I cannot seem to get it to go into recovery or anything. Is it safe to say it is bricked?
When my HP Touchpads battery was to low to take a charge from the wall charger, the only way it could get enough charge to be able to use the wall charger was to trickle charge it from my computer usb port for a couple of days.

GT-N5100 not charging

Sorry guys, noob here.
Started with the USB not being promptly recognized by my PC, but after some reconnections it worked.
So, one day ago, I installed TWRP via heimdall suite and flashed the last stable Cyanogenmod 12.1 for GT-N5100, following all the instructions. For my surprise, the tablet doesn't charge with any type of source. Tried lots of cables and adapters and nothing.
I returned to stock ROM, 4.4.2, but the same problem remains.
What I found is that somehow it start recharging when plugged for some time, but only some few %, and the tablet is readily recognized via USB when on download mode. So, it's not a hardware issue.
Someone, please help me.

I think you have system corruption from kernels. I have experienced various issues around power with the note 8.0... all of which were from various kernel loads effecting low level device operation. Unfortunately there is no reset button or easy access to clean out the corruption.
You can remove the battery connection and wait a few minutes. Then connect and go into download mode and flash a stock rom. Then boot to setup and finalize your installation. Check and see if it will charge and properly function with power off and reboot options from the power menu.
If so flash a recovery, and wipe completly and flash your ROM of choice. If you choose a custom kernel outside of the ROM package, that may be done on top of the ROM load, to assist in a clean and trouble free ROM install.

Tried exactly what you said: Opened it, removed the battery for a while, flashed the stock rom via Odin and factory reseted. Nothing changes.
Doesn't charge anyway. It's recognized when in download mode, though.
With 16% battery right now. If it drop to 0%, that means gameover? Or can i charge while on download mode (odin mode)?
Can't I flash TWRP and then install a custom kernel from there?
Thanks, dude.
I use Philz Recovery, as had issues with TWRP long ago and gave up once I tried Philz.
I would have done a full wipe and reset in philz.
You can charge in Philz and in Download mode, once you are able to get the phone to reset the power mode by the kernel flash.
One thing I think may be your issue... the USB connector may be bad. All you need is the voltage pin to go bad. Data will operate without voltage for powering the device.
Removing the USB board and lightly compress the top and bottom of the connectors frame, so that your cable end fits snug. Had to do that a few years ago when a cable end stretched it out after a few uses. Did not go back to using it again once I corrected the fit issue.

Tried also, without response.
It really doesn't seem to be a hardware problem.
Right now I plugged into the charger and there you go: Charging!!
I don't know what I did different, but it's working, at least for a while. Probably it will not fully charge, but ok.
I remembered that, prior to flashing TWRP+CM12.1, I got constant pop-ups about Power Sharing. Reading some forums, some guys experienced the same problem with this feature and them their phones stopped charging. Some reported that a factory reset solved, which is not my case.
I will keep posting what I did and if I find something that solves, it may help someone who's stuck with the same error.
Anyway, thanks so much, gooberdude.
(And sorry for my lame grammar.. writing is much harder than reading and listening english)
having same issue tab not charging only showing in odin mode.. i even replace the usb port part still same situation.. going to flash stock rom hope this will work for me .. i am using cm13 on twrp 3.0..

Hello
My N5100 faces the same problem of charging as this thread.
Could you put in details about your status of N5100
- Your regional model: Ex: EU, America, Asia....?
- Your Tab is working fine until today, doesnt it?
- If it's working fine , what was ROM you are using currently?
- What did Recovery you use to flash ROM?
Thank you so much
Hello my tab has a charging problem too it started with not being recognised when I plug to my computer. When I plug to a power source it charges sometimes other times it just doesn't and I'm certain the charger isn't the problem
