[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tek2000:
Dear All,

I purchased a 32gb Nexus 5 in White from play store UK.

It was switched on for approximately 3 hours. When it was originally switched on there were some updates to install which it did fine. I was using the phone when it suddenly crashed and rebooted. At that point it was stuck on the white Google logo.

I held power button and reset it,still stuck on white Google logo.

Held power button and volume down which loads the bootloader and in red it shows "Fastboot Enabled"

If I try to select recovery it just resets and stuck on white Google logo.

I unlocked bootloader and ran the flash-all.bat to reflash the stock rom. This completes without any problem at all but for some reason the phone refuses to boot into recovery pr main system. The only thing I can get into is the bootloader with fastboot enabled. Choosing any option always results in the phone getting stuck on the Google logo.

I am unsure if this could be a hardware memory chip error or something else.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ankitb4u:
If you are able to go into stock recovery where you will get an android logo with exclamation mark... When on that screen hit the power button first then volume up. This will get you into stock recovery wipe everything or erase it's the third option I think. If you want me to refer you to a video let me know it is for nexus 7 but I followed it to fix the same exact issue as yours on mine .
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Sounds like you got a bad phone. I'd warranty it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ankitb4u:
Here go the video follow it.

Thanks I found it on xda via a Google search. I had this Monday morning when no one had their phones lol. Was loosing hopes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tek2000:
Thanks I have seen this video. Unfortunately it wont go into the recovery mode i.e the android with the red triangle.

It will only go into the bootloader. Any option chosen after bootloader results in stuck at white Google logo.

I have flashed and reflashed recovery and the entire rom plenty of times.

The key question is why can it not get into recovery despite flashing all working.

I will try to record a video and upload it to youtube because I have never seen this problem on any android device I have ever used.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exel:
Have you tried flashing a custom recovery?

Better yet, boot a custom recovery?

If you get that working, you can adb sideload a ROM? And see if it'll boot.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rochrunner:
This is one reason I like a removable battery. I have gotten out of a few hung situations by pulling the battery for a couple seconds.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DowntownJeffBrown:
You can hold the per button fish for about 15 seconds. Works just as good as a battery pull

Ok folks, recently my phone started boot looping while I was using a wifi app. So I Did pwr, vol down to go into the bootloader and get into recovery. Had a recovery backup so I flashed that and everything was good, but I decided it was time for an update. So I tried to update to this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1655011 which is the NEW CleanROM. My old Rom was Also CleanROM, however used CWM. So following the directions it said I needed TWRP, Jellybean Firmware, and S-off. SO first I flashed TWRP with fastboot, which suceeded, Then proceded to flash Jellybean FW, which gave me a signature failure. I tried this several times with the same result. Then I read around that I needed S-off, so I went to do that using the facepalm http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2155071 method. It also Signature fails every time.

SO long story short all I can do is bootloader, and fastboot. Nothing will take a flash. I can also get to the black screen with silver HTC. NO recovery NO Android.

I did, however it will no longer boot, OR go into recovery. Same result, Just sits there for hours... In fact just for giggles I let it try to go into recovery for 10 hours today while I was at work... No go..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I don't know what you've done to get it to this point, but I'd suggest flashing a recovery again. Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:

fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"

(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)

fastboot erase cache

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Now hopefully you can enter recovery on your phone and flash a ROM so you can try the s-off process again.

Ok weird, I factory reset, wiped, blah blah, reboot recovery, and whammo, it let me install a rom... Testing.. BTW Thanks so much folks for all the help. I'll update as things progress.

ok S-Off Achieved... Now any suggestions for firmware, and radios?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You'll want the 2.15 firmware otherwise you'll suffer signal drops and reboots, it includes the latest radio. You'll find it in the first post of Turge's stock Sense 5 ROM thread along with instructions.

I've flashed a couple of radios *3 exactly* without ril's. Two were the same one bad. Wife has the same phone but she's root but stock Rom, her signal strength is "max" all the time even when the phones are side by side.... I need to figure out what radio she is using. She also has NOT ever updated from the original Rom that came with the phone the DAY the were released from att
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yeah, -99 is pretty low signal strength. Apparently the radio that's contained within the firmware update (1.31 I think) is the best for use with the update.

hey all, i just opened my Nexus 5 and connected to wifi and was prompted for a software update before initial setup. I haven't read anywhere about this so i was just wondering if it was normal?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JCreazy:
Yeah it updates you to 4.4
[HTC One S] phin586:
Looking for a stable daily driver for my friend whom I am giving my phone to, now that I have a nexus 5 almost here.

She needs something stable. This phone has ran Cyanogen for a while and I just wouldnt feel comfortable giving it to her with the finicky data, odd call problems from time to time, etc.

So, in terms of stability over features, which would you recommend?
[HTC One S] Atok_fr:
SourcE is maximus with some tweaks. Nothing very special, so the stability isn't really modified. But you have some interesting tweaks in SourcE: better quality pictures, better sound, gif recording, etc.

So I think you can give to your friend your One S with SourcE 2 :)

Envoyé de mon HTC One S en utilisant Tapatalk
[HTC One S] gelo01:
Maximus.

The "better picture quality" and "gif recording" can be flashed using pirlano and TheEndHK's camera mod. Better sound quality produced by V4A is also downloadable. The only thing i wanted more from maximus are tweaks, though we can use xposed framework and sense 5 toolbox module.

But you can never go wrong with both source and maximus since both of them uses the same updated firmware..
[HTC One S] phin586:
Being as I have never used Maximus or SourcE, how does it compare to stock? Same issues with screen on lag as other 3.4 roms? Signal stability compared to stock?

I am in the US
[HTC One S] tivofool:
It is comparable to stock, not the 3.4 roms. Meaning, no lag and signal is good.

I do find it irritating that with the new firmware you need to use the modified twrp which will cannot mount usb storage. Also the backup feature can put your backups in the wrong directory. So you have to move them for them to show up.

So for me, it is just the recovery that I don't like.
[HTC One S] phin586:
Cool, thanks for the info. I will definitely give it a try for a few weeks and see if she likes it. I can always revert to stock.
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
If you like aosp, CM 10 is very stable, and particularly light ... which makes it quite responsive and quick. If she would prefer sense, then stock 4.1 will be absolutely trouble free. I use rom cleaner to strip out all the bloat, which makes the stock rom fly. In my experience, most women want stability over anything else ... they just want things to work.
[HTC One S] phin586:
As stated in my first post, CM has not been very stable. Connection issues, each update always brings a new issue. I run CM as it is..
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
I wasn't talking about the current CM 10.2 updates (Android 4.3) ... CM 10 (Android 4.1.2) is absolutely stable, and it still has most of the functionality of the latest and greatest.
[HTC One S] phin586:
Fair enough. I think she would enjoy the features of the Sense camera and the added apps. Shes a android noob.
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
Then stock 4.1 will be the most stable of all ... it's what my wife runs on her T-Mobile One S.
[HTC One S] phin586:
Gotcha. Someone stated that Maximus and SourcE are comparable in stability. Wondering what issues are apparent, compared to stock. I wish Dev's would dedicated a 1st or 2nd post to list of known issues. :-\
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
Some have had pretty good success with Maximus, and for the most part stable. Others have had some glitches along the way, and they simply won't be as stable as the Stock RUU. My One S has been rooted and s-off since day one ... and I have tried all the major custom roms. It doesn't bother me when something goes wrong, because I know how to fix it. My wife, however, really gets upset when glitches occur on her phone, so we keep it simple, stable ... everything just works. I might add that the T-Mobile Stock RUU is no slouch ... it runs very well.
[HTC One S] phin586:
Ya I am thinking that is going to be the way. Who knows, maybe we will get luck with KITKAT. =S
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
That would be wonderful if it were to happen, but unfortunately HTC has turned it's back on the One S. There will most likely be some custom 4.4 roms, but once again it will be difficult to make them completely stable. I am seriously thinking about moving on to the Moto X, and giving my One S a well deserved rest ... it's been a great phone!
[HTC One S] phin586:
I am picking up a N5, just waiting for it to be delivered.

After this last foray with HTC, I do not see myself leaving the Nexus ecosphere, in well... ever...
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
Good choice ... looks like a great phone. Before my One S, I carried a Nexus device. I really prefer stock Android. I considered the Nexus 5, but it just doesn't fit my hands ... hence the Moto X. Anyway ... have fun with your new phone!
[HTC One S] TheEndHK:
Maximus is completely a stock HTC One S 4.2.2 RUU but just you've to install it via manual RUU installation method so it is a bit trouble. SourcE is based on Maximus with little necessary and very important tweaks, they are pretty much the same, I'll strongly prefer SourcE.

You have to install this "Maximus/SourcE RUU" via command prompt and there are just too many noobs around and some probably need to go for English lessons because they fail to read the procedure every time so they never flash it successfully. But remember your One S has to be a S-OFF device to do that.

To the stability problem, there are radio bugs in Maximus/SourcE but that is HTC fault, nothing wrong to the rom developers. This is a case to case by bias, personally I don't have any problem at all. You have to try it out because we don't know if the radio compatible to your carrier network or not.

1. Some got very poor in-call volume

2. Some got mobile data slow problem

3. Some got mobile signal weak problem

Basically, that's all the problem listed but I don't meet any single one. The radio 1.20 in Maximus/SourcE does working with my Hong Kong carrier network quite well. You can flash older radio like 1.1x to fix all above problem but it will create a random data disconnection bug.
[HTC One S] wmdunn:
Appreciate you going into all the detail, but these issues are exactly what many people are trying to avoid with their One S. That is why we were talking about what our better halves were not willing to tolerate.
[HTC One S] gelo01:
Same as [MENTION=4006638]TheEndHK[/MENTION], i don't have those issues as well, in fact the in call audio volume on mine is much louder than when i was on viper. The 1.20 radio brought me much stronger wifi signal and stability on mobile data, though some places i have full network coverage became weaker but not that much. Not all of us experienced those issues, and you won't know that if you will or will not experience it either if you haven't tried it yourself. :thumbup::cool:

I'm curious to hear from anyone who gets one. The aluminum and teak ones look pretty nice.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] ritzxda:
These seem nice as well but I've never tried any skins apart from dbrand. Primarily this has been because postage is $11.49 to my country. However, having used dbrand and read about them/seen them on my friends devices, I don't think I'm missing out. These may be a couple of dollars cheaper but the dbrand skins are definitely very precise/high quality.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] pmoradi2002:
dbrands marketing is a little misleading, their whole process is over-exaggerated as far as creating a skin goes as well as their "quality".
[Nexus 5 Accessories] timothyung:
You work at dbrand:confused: How do you know?

I only know that their skins are extremely precise. And the adhesive is real 3M thing.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Not to disrespect dbrand (I actually had one of their skins for my Nexus 4 and it was great), but you are right. It's quite bizarre to see everyone go crazy over dbrand. I find the whole "bot" creative process quite silly..and yes, it's uniqueness is also quite exaggerated when you see that it looks identical to the skin you've mentioned.

That said, it's still an excellent brand as far as quality goes and I also like their low cost international shipping.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] pmoradi2002:
I know how the process works. You measure the skin, make adjustments, and repeat until you get a nice fit. Per dbrand, they remeasure and cut their skins 1000 times when creating a skin. If this is true then they need to hire a new designer as this process takes only a few hours.

Also, 3M vinyl is available to anyone not just dbrand ;)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MultipleOutput:
It's quite apparent that they use marketing as their X-factor when differentiating their brand, but yea, most screen protectors and cheaper cases are usually sourced from the same factories unless they're a huge company and can afford to do their own R&D.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] timothyung:
Alright, are you going to buy one from XGear? If so, please take some photos after applying it, so that we can compare the difference in precision:D
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Really? A few hours? Perhaps you need to try a little harder. I've been there for those 50 hour binges where our "designers" go through (over) one thousand revisions to achieve a flawless fit.
