[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
especially this kind of issue. We are like at post 120 and still not understand the basics of fastboot

I think we should definitively get him to flash/sideload a rom like arhd 31.6. It will be impossible for him the create the backup path on his phone and then extract the telus backup and push it to /data/meda/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/SERIAL#/some_folder :laugh::laugh: This will be a nightmare :D

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Thats your choice, however I am unable to proceed if you can't get the folders/files right and keep flapping between working and non-working fastboot commands.

Your SDCard is screwed which needs to be fixed, and then a rom will need to be flashed somehow, either by restoring a backup or installing a new file. We are still at basics of getting fastboot connectivity after 140 posts. The chances of someone with enough patience to go for estimate 1029 more posts and about 2 weeks are slim.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TynanV:
I downloaded one called Paranoid 3+ I think. When I went to the google playstore and tried to download all my apps none of them would load. WiFi and everything was running fine. After I'm in TWRP can I unplug my phone from my Mac?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
no .. your going to download and push a file to your phone first

download this >> http://www.androidrevolution.nl/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_51.0.zip
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TynanV:
What's that for?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
that's your new Rom your going to flash in the next step

make sure you download it and put it in the same folder as your adb / fastboot

Set the device into ADB sideload mode. In TWRP you do this by going to Advanced then ADB Sideload.

From the Terminal, type adb sideload Android_Revolution_HD-One_51.0.zip
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TynanV:
Is that a HTC One stock ROM?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
Yes please do

9. Wait until it says 100% and reboot back into recovery to flash the ROM

10. If hitting power does not make the screen come one, type adb reboot recovery

11. if adb reboot recovery does not work, hold power and volume down until it reboots to fastboot then go to recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TynanV:
For ADB Sideload, do I need to select either "wipe falvik cache" or "wipe cache"? and after that just swipe to start sideload right? Just want to make sure, lol. Sorry for the stupid questions

no just start the side load .. you can wipe during the rom install

[Nexus 5 General] GUGUITOMTG4:
Ok, Most concepts are FAKE as the following one is. But what do you think about our next Best friend being curved:cyclops:..

I kinda felt blue when saw that but don't know what the general acceptance will be.

http://www.phonearena.com/news/New-Google-Nexus-6-concept-takes-a-colorful-curved-approach_id52110
[Nexus 5 General] _MetalHead_:
That's actually pretty slick looking.

Sent from my Moto X
[Nexus 5 General] markdapimp:
Won't be called nexus 6 it will most likely be called nexus 5 2014
[Nexus 5 General] GUGUITOMTG4:
It depends on whether Google pays to use that licensed name or not

lets discard the idea that the name is related to size.

Also, I would say that our current Nexus 5 is a very 2014 device since released very late on 2013 (the first nexus 7 was release on July 2012 and 2nd, July 2013).
[Nexus 5 General] biscuitownz:
NO thanks, I do not like curved phones.
[Nexus 5 General] markdapimp:
Agreed I'd rather have a flat phone than curved but enough people do it such as apple it will be caught on like how people adapted to windows 8
[Nexus 5 General] 3CH0T3CH:
Curved? No thanks.

Also not a fan of Windows 8 GUI and navigation style, and still use Windows 7 because it does what I need it to.

Go figure.

What would I want in a Nexus 6/Nexus 5 gen. 2? New high-end CPU/GPU, more RAM I suppose, higher MP camera. You know, that sort of thing. Ooh, root and SU option on stock Android? :laugh: :highfive:
[Nexus 5 General] alb3rtt:
Im guessing this: 1440P display, 64 bit cpu (not sure exactly), 3gb ram, 13mp camera with ois, android 5.0 or 4.5 w/art as stock & 64 bit support, usb 3.0 (really hope this is in).

Oh, and broken SU... :(
[Nexus 5 General] MakoVince:
Nexus devices are already kind of a niche product, it would be stupid to make it either curved or any larger than 5 inches, both of those categories are in the niche categories themselves.
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
Looks cool but unstable on a table. Needs to be curved the other way IMHO
[Nexus 5 General] Enddo:
don't forget that the nexus 4 was 4.7 inches. they could use the nexus 5 name and keep increasing the size in different, smaller, increments.
[Nexus 5 General] gee2012:
For me 5" inch is the perfect screen size, both in the hand and pocket.
[Nexus 5 General] JerryBels:
Waiting to get any curved phone into my hand already before I could tell I like it or not ^^
[Nexus 5 General] Enddo:
there are certain things like music controls and torch controls and such that i need access to with one hand. but anytime i am actually zero'd in on my smartphone, i am using both hands, so i tend to prefer the bigger screens. i haven't quite figured out what my limit is on screen size
[Nexus 5 General] chubby65:
I agree with you mate forget about the curved screen and concentrate on the rest of the specs like memory capacity for instance 32/64gb built in 3 or 4gb ram better CPU /GPU
[Nexus 5 General] kboya:
Does no one remember that the nexus S was curved. Shape wise, it was nice to hold and pocket. The only thing was the earpiece could be a little uncomfortable as the edge pressed against your ear more, but that is solvable. Of course, the screen was flat and only the body curved.

Some advantages are: placing it on tables etc mean little chance of scoring or scratching the screen; also rear facing speakers are either up face down, or not in contact with the surface face up.

PS the issue with the nexus s was Samsung's cheap, plastic build quality and feel. But the shape was good
[Nexus 5 General] md1008:
Curved phone worked well on the lg flex. T-Mobile showed me the flex he had it in his pocked as its not on sale until next week. The phone is huge! But because of the curve and it really wasn't burdensome. I think from here on out curved phones should be a must for phablets
[Nexus 5 General] Arrar:
No curved phone please. Flexible is another thing but for stiff curved I cannot think any preferable reason.
[Nexus 5 General] riggs170:
I will be so upset if the make it curved.
[Nexus 5 General] Nephilyn:
Trying to pander to the Samsung crowd?
[Nexus 5 General] projectgtr:
Wouldnt be the first Nexus with a curved screen, the Galaxy Nexus had one, the slight curve was actually nice to hold in the hand, but i wouldnt like anything as extreme like in the render.
[Nexus 5 General] deepakanand:
I don't get the point of having a curve phone at all. I mean whats the advantage? A flat phone has a perfect view, fits in the pocket well. Where as for curved phone, its like going back to old CRT days (with televisions having curved screen), it will feel weird to carry phone on pocket.

Just my view though.
[Nexus 5 General] herosemblem:
Horrendously idiotic concept.
[Nexus 5 General] md1008:
My opinion of curved phones changed drastically since I held the LG Flex. It would also be great for people who think 5 inches is to cumbersome. Really it did not feel like I was holding a 6 inch phone. I really do want one but the fact that it's shipping with 4.2 says I better not lol
[Nexus 5 General] :
What's the point of the curved screen?
[Nexus 5 General] TiltedAz:
Maybe planned obsolescence. :)

I guess this was the most important take from the article.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
I love Android. I love the ability to mod the phone and do many things the carriers and manufacturers don't like us to do. I have a crazy amount of experience in all things modding, from rooting, custom roms/kernels, audio mods, theming, customized apps, Xposed, etc. I've modded every phone I have had to the max. Because of that, I also have a pretty good amount of troubleshooting practice between all the stuff I do for myself and friends, as well as for my customers at my repair shop. I've spent 1000s of hours in the past 4 years reading, researching, testing, modding, fixing various phones and tablets. I've rooted over 100 different kinds of devices, including, but not limited to devices from:

Samsung

HTC

Sony

LG

Motorola

Huawei

Pantech

ZTE

Asus

Acer

Dell

HP

Kindle

Nook

Random no-name Chinese things

etc

etc

Why do you care? Because I want to help you enjoy your phone like I do. I know many people would love to take the plunge and root their phones, but are scared because of the potential to break things, and the technical terms that just don't make sense without hours of reading. So, I am offering personalized help, no strings attached, to get your phone performing and behaving like you would like. Use my experience to your advantage, and in return, I get to give back to the community a bit, as well as getting the chance to learn even more. No matter how many times you go through rooting and customizing something, you always learn a little something or pick up on a new mod/tweak/setting that you didn't know about before, as well as maybe make another friend or 3.

With that out of the way, if you would like to take me up on my offer, please hit me up on Hangouts or a message with how you would like to chat. I would like to keep it as much 1 on 1 as possible, so I can give the help needed without getting distracted by a thread going everywhere. There are plenty of threads for generic root / modding help, and I prefer IM type chatting for things of this nature.

Hope to hear from you soon!

I've been doing tech support for a few years now between working the Internet and Phone support lines for Comcast and I run a little cell repair shop where I help people a lot as well. Have to have a ton of patience to walk people through how to get online when they don't even know if they have a router or where it would be (or even if they are connected wirelessly or not - I wish I were kidding). ;) It's also good to keep in touch with new and/or inexperienced users because it's easy to get comfortable in your knowledge and assume everyone knows the "easy" stuff. I've also been kicking around the idea of teaching a Community Education class for Android 101 in my area (Denver).

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sniff658:
I'll start off.....

Let's say I want to stay stock'ish..... Plain old 4.4.2 with the bare minimum of google stuff added in...

Can I flash system.img, but delete everything in system/apps, and system/priv-apps before first boot?

I would flash system.img, then banks gapps, core. Would that provide a "stripped down" stock rom? No bloat? Then just add in necessary apps from the play store....

Thanks for everyone doing this..... hopefully it will be a great Q&A thread....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
There already is an ask anything thread. I don't think that's the intent of this one. And, no you can't do what you're thinking. How are you going to delete the apps out of the system.img before you boot?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
At that point, it's easier to just root the stock rom and remove what you want with a root uninstaller or file manager with root access. Add in the Xposed Framework if you need any little extra tweaks without messing up anything that can't be resolved from removing the tweak and rebooting. Or there's a multitude of minimalist roms in the Development forum.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sniff658:
I understand that there a lot of ROMs to choose from.... I just wanted to make my own.....

The apps can deleted in recovery.... after the boot loader flashes system.img, boot straight to recovery, and delete away...

I wasn't knowledgeable enough to determine if the first boot of the ROM would install anything extra that would not delete after the boot. (Similar to windows registry)

Thanks for the quick answer..... much appreciated.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
The things that would get installed that you can't uninstall after it is booted are things you should not be able to do so at risk of messing with the phone's functionality, or worse. There aren't going to be any benefits of removing apps in recovery vs doing it while it is booted. If you really wanna go that route, just download a stock prerooted rom and use 7zip to remove whatever apps and files from the zip that you want before you put it on the phone to flash.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sniff658:
Thank you very much.... I'll go that route....
[Motorola Droid 4] ding_thornton:
I was following the instructions at the CryanogenMod Wiki for the Droid 4 (Maserati) to install CM11 nightly.

I followed the instructions word for word up to "Boot to recovery mode on the device by holding Power and at SafeStrap splash screen press Menu key within 10 seconds." I was already in SafeStrap (I had just activated rom-1) so I used the Reboot> Recovery option in the program. When it loads up I get the Droid! screen. I tried going to the Boot Options screen and go to recovery with the same result.

So is it bricked, or am I missing something?
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
It's pretty hard to really brick a D4. Worst case you'll have to fastboot using the JB fastboot files and RSDlite. Can you still get in to safestrap recovery?
