I have the same issue. I installed the OTA. I had security certificates before which forced me to use a pin lock lock screen (My exchange account requires it). I installed a MOD to remove it so I thought that might be what was causing my problem. I removed the MOD by disabling the exchange APP but it didn't resolve it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beddamade1:
I have this same issue. I even had it on the developers version. I also thought when you got text messages, emails, and other messages. You would get a black and white notification if you moved you hand over the phone. That doesn't work for me either. i have a Nexus 5 Build LRX21O. I installed it with the Nexus Root Toolkit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnanaswaroop:
I have the same issue on my Nexus 4 side loaded with Android 5.0 Lollipop. The screen won't turn on for any interactive incoming notifications like Phone Calls, Alarm calls..

It's an annoyance as you need to double tap the notification to answer, and the only way to go to speaker phone is to answer -> unlock -> Tap speaker

I checked around and my colleagues who use a Nexus 5 don't have this issue (OTA or Sideloaded). So I think this issue could be with a Nexus 4 build only (selectively that too). I am the only one who've posted this on reddit too.

My screen didn't turn off during phone calls with the developer preview and still doesn't with the official factory image from Google.

This is coming from a full flash via fastboot... Don't think this is a dirty flash issue.

Hi

What is the safest way to root Android L ?

I have tried CF-Root after flashing Bigixe's Rom and that caused a boot loop.

http://download.chainfire.eu/363/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hammerhead-hammerhead-nexus5.zip

I've now done a flash-all and the phone is back..

But I'd like to get root before I start changing things around.

Ideally I'd like to stick with the default kernel.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
stay as far away from root toolkits as possible.

unlock your bootloader with fastboot oem unlock, flash a custom recovery. then flash a kernel that allows root via that recovery, then flash the latest supersu. reboot, and thats all. oh, and questions do not go into general, they go to the q&a section.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MilkyJoePD:
Was it a normal bootloop or a try to root, reboot, try to root... loop?

Did a fresh download and this time it has worked.

Hello.

I'd like to know simple thing - capacity limits(android limitations unrelated to hardware reality, of course) and what makes 'em unusable on old devices/systems.

So, to be simple - i'd like to ask few questions to have precise answer(xdadev knows everything, isn't it?):

1. What makes EXACT android version being capable to have support for cards?

2. I know, that max capacity is usually NOT related to..hardware, so...

3. Can someone answer, if i.e. 64gb cards support IS REAL on i.e. 4.2.x, just if someone DO this here?

4. Let me repeat: I know, that max capacity is usually NOT related to..hardware(we are still operating below real limitations), so...is this intentional bs made by android market and xdadev is avoiding this matter?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
Hi everybody,

I upgraded to Lollipop using the original image. Everything was fine. No problem of any kind. Then I decided to flash the TWRP recovery. At the first run (just after installation) it was there and worked fine (I even made a backup). However, after a reboot when I went to the recovery I found that it was the stock recovery and TWRP was gone. The back up is also gone from my internal storage. The same thing happened when I flashed the latest version of CWM. After a reboot the flashed recovery is gone.

Please help. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
are you using.. fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img or fastboot boot recovery recoveryname.img?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
I have used "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
well, if you used boot instead of flash, itll only boot the recovery for a one time use. flash should make it stick. if not sticking, flash a recovery 2 or 3 times, itll stick eventually.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
Thank you, I will try that and then report...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweaked:
Do you have the latest version of the recovery and the root files?

I used CF Root as Chainfire is the man. I ran it first, then I added the recovery.

It stuck for me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Remove the scripts etc that install recovery such as inatall-recovery.sh and recovery.boot.p in system and system/bin

Just double check your install-recovery.sh isn't one used to call su because you don't want to remove that if it is.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
I flashed ( flash .img ) the recovery 2 or 3 times (even more) but it won't stick. If I do not reboot to system it remains there but as soon as I reboot to system it is gone. :confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you want to find and rename or delete install-recovery.sh in /system/. thats whats replacing your recovery with stock.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naro:
I actually tried that, but had the following problem:

sudo adb shell mv /system/bin/install-recovery.sh{,.bak}
mv: rename /system/bin/install-recovery.sh to /system/bin/install-recovery.sh.bak: Read-only file system

Do you have an idea how I can come around this issue?

edit: I have figured that out, check post #15
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
I do not want to root. Is it possible? I just want to have recovery. The problem is remained.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naro:
From my understanding you need root to be able to edit files in /system. And in there is the script that "misbehaves" for us.

But I've not quite understood how to come by the read only file system problem
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
Does it mean that lollipop behaves differently from KitKat? I could have recovery without root there. It stuck at the first flash. But now it is removed every time I boot to the system.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VisionNN:
I've ran into the same problem except for me I'm not even getting stock recovery. I don't even have one lol
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naro:
Okay guys so I figured out how to get it to work (and the recovery to stick!)

First of all, get root. CF Auto root is your friend here.

Now to the problem: The recovery seems to be "reflashed" at every boot. (with an "empty" recovery).

To fix it, boot your phone up and connect it to a pc that has adb installed.

remember to not use sudo under windows, just keep that part out

sudo adb shell

Now you are on a shell in your android. Since /system is mounted readonly, we first have to remount it:

shell@hammerhead:/ $ su
root@hammerhead:/ # mount -o rw,remount /system

now change the install script (I just added a .bak to the name so we do not have to delete it) and remount the filesystem and read only again:

root@hammerhead:/ # mv /system/bin/install-recovery.sh{,.bak}
root@hammerhead:/ # mount -o ro,remount /system

Finally flash the recovery as you are used to, it will now stick:

sudo adb reboot-bootloader
sudo fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-hammerhead.img
sudo fastboot reboot

From here on, you are back in android and your recovery should have sticked
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bush911:
Maybe you should go to system and find a file like this

recover --from--boot

then delete it
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VisionNN:
Alright, well the above solution definitely helped, but now when i try to enter super su, it tells me the binaries arent updated and the root needs to be done manually.....but didnt i just do this?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You can have a recovery without root. Also root is only "in" android. If your recovery has a file manager, it can edit /system files without root because android isn't running lg, ergo no protection. Its just like taking a hard drive out of a computer and adding it as a 2nd in another computer. You don't need that computers password to get the data.

So flash the ROM and see if you can delete them using the recovery file manager or adb whilst booted into recovery

This was all unnecessary.

boot recovery

Flash ROM

mount system

adb shell

Re

I had the same problem yesterday except that i was intending to install both root and TWRP recovery. I flashed TWRP and ran it then installed supersu, the root did not work and TWRP was gone after rebooting the system.

I used the "cf auto root" utility made by chainfire. It worked (even though the root has few bugs)

I noticed that cf-auto-root flashed some boot img before installing root and twrp. I think you may want to give it a look.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joojooman:
This is what I did:

Boot to recovery-->

Flashing TWRP img-->

Then immediately going to TWRP file manager-->

Changing install-recovery.sh to install-recovery.sh.old -->

Then immediately made a backup --> reboot to system, turning the cellphone on and off several times

TWRP is there :) BUT:

The only point is that I cannot see the backup folder in my internal storage. It is clear that it has taken some

space (almost 2GB) but I cannot see the TWRP backup folder. :confused::confused:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michauko:
Hi there,

Thanks for your help.

I tried everything you said, twrp kept starting for a few secondes (spalsh screen) then rebooting to normal OS...

I moved from twrp 2.8.2.0 back to 2.8.1.0 as all of you had only this one at this time (2.8.2.0 came out just some days ago)

And guess what, it worked.

2.8.2. has a bug somewhere? I checked the md5, it was ok.

I realized TWRP had maybe a problem because immediately after flashing twrp, I could not restart directly in recovery, not even a single time... in this situation, the /system/bin/install-recovery.sh had no chance to remove twrp. That wasn't logical.

Hope it'll help,

Hi I just wanna share my experience with flashing TWRP on my Android 6.0 Marshmallow Nexus 5.

Just like the OP, I had the same problem. TWRP would not stick no mater how many times I have flashed it. I have even deleted the install-recovery.sh using Root Explorer from the /system/etc/ folder.

You see, the version of TWRP that I was trying to flash was version 2.8.7.1 and no matter how many times I tried, it would not stick.

Then I decided to try flash one version older which was TWRP version 2.8.7.0 and guess what.... it works!!!
