[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenexus6:
Hi there, first post (actually joined the forum to post this)

So I am having trouble with my Nexus 5, essentially the power button has recessed into the phone causing it to constantly reboot over and over.

Now before anyone asks I did not buy this phone new from google play. It was purchased second hand at the beginning of last year. I have reached out to the guy and he can't find any receipt or documents from when he purchased. (Its way out of warranty anyway now).

So my question is this a problem I can fix myself easily? I could take to local phone repair shop, but don't want to be overcharged for something that could be a easy fix (plus a lot of repair shops are kinda shady). I am considering just selling on eBay as faulty then buying a new one but if I can fix thats obviously the better option (for me and my wallet).

The power button does not rattle like i've read people experience, its pushed too deeply for that. Any suggestions to wipe the device, or launch into recovery mode won't help here.

Any help would be super appreciated as this is a very annoying problem i'm dealing with here.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modplan:
I had this same problem last week. Well kind of, my button was NOT held down, but the phone though it was, any time i pressed it it would think I was holding it down and eventually reboot until I banged my phone on something.

I bought my N5 on release day from Google Play and google told me "Sorry it is out of its one year warranty, tough luck".

I took it to my local repair shop, they confirmed that the button is soldered to the motherboard and the same button that the recent galaxy phones use. They soldered off the buggy one, soldered on a new one for $40 and less than an hour. The buttons themselves are very tiny, and less than $5, but even with my decent soldering skills and digital soldering station, I wasn't comfortable doing the job myself.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenexus6:
Thanks for your response, I will take it to my local phone place but I very much doubt the same level of professionalism as you experienced.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
It's not that daunting a task, I'm sure even a crappy little repair shop will be able to do it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenexus6:
I went into a few shops today and they had no idea what the Nexus 5 even was. None of the shops could help me..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
That's crazy. A phone repair shop that has never heard of the N5 has no business existing.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenexus6:
Yep, and it wasn't just one. One place send they are unsure and would have to send it off and there was no possibly of them fixing it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
That's annoying. Well, you can try calling LG to see what they would charge to fix it. Or, maybe call some other shops that aren't local and see if theyll let you ship it to them. Aside from that or selling it, I don't know what other options you have. You could try fixing it yourself, it's already busted so it's not like you've got something to lose. I dunno, I wish I could help more but that's all I got. Good luck man.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenexus6:
I sold it for spares on eBay - got good price so I am happy. Now to look for another Nexus 5 and return the Moto G to the store or just put up with the G until the new phones release this year

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharlesPro:
Hello,

I'v bought a GALAXY S5 G900F before two months, and it hasn't received the lollipop update, yet. I bought it from Saudi Arabia and now I've moved to Jordan (should that be a problem?)

I cannot wait anymore and I want to manually upgrade to Lollipop and I've got few questions.

1) Is it okay if I download a firmware for another CSC code? mine is (G900FOJV1AOA1) and in sammobile the latest downloadable firmware is 4.4.2.

2) If I root the mobile afterwards and a 5.0.1 was released OTA or via Kies, how can I get it? can I un-root to get the update then root it back?

3) Is there a way to reset the KNOX counter?

4) Are there any better websites than sammobile to download the firmware and how can I ensure if it is legit and untouched?

5) Why do different countries get the update so late? this is so irritating. why cannot Samsung just make the update available for everyone ? especially for the international unlocked versions.

Thanks in advance,
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrgrrg:
1-yes but if you want stability for modem choose same reigon code (ex.XXU-BLABLA for russia\egypt\saudi arabia like that ... see your current firmware code and find the one with the same ... if not its no big deal its that some people say its better ... imho get the latest by samsung any area make sure its international)

2-umm no and yes ... no if u just unroot ... yes if you make a full wipe after unrooting (ofcourse with not deleting any system apps in partition :silly: )

3-until now .... no ... but its simple ... you have warrenty stay away ... u dont ... just go and screw it :laugh: :silly:

4-yes but sammobile is the best and fastest ... another site is samsung-updates ... it gives you new firmwares faster than sammobile but download speed is pathetic for ul.to and other mirror

5-i dunno for real but keep in mind that 99.999% of samsung phones which gets the updates are "russian" ones ... so if you have the russia stock rom you will be the first to get an OTA by 99.999% :fingers-crossed: :silly:

hope i helped :o

It seems my battery is considerably worse after the lollipop update. It also seems that when the phone is idle and the screen is off a lot of battery is being used. I checked battery settings and it saying Android Os is taking up most of the battery.. Which u guess it normal.

Anyone else experiencing this?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stokholm:
I've run in to the problem some other people were having too. A problem, where after fastboot flashing userdata.img (from stock factory image), I'm left with 23.03GB of storage on my device, even though it's a 64GB model.

I've Googled the problem, and people suggest running "fastboot format data" to fix it. But of course that will wipe all my settings and so forth. My question is if I can back up the data partition using TWRP onto an OTG device. Then run "fastboot format data" and finally restore data again using TWRP.

Would that work? And would it even fix the problem of the missing space.

For reference, the issue has previously been discussed here:

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/help/nexus-6-64gb-23gb-free-space-t2953636
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MunkinDrunky:
Just so its clear the fastboot format does the trick. (I also did fastboot and vol scrolled to recovery and did a full wipe before the format)(that was prob overkill)

fastboot format userdata

fastboot format cache

fastboot reboot

I've never done that with twrp. I usually just dump my whole SD card to a hard drive then start fresh. Its a reasonable pain to ensure there are no problems.

Also wouldn't you have been totally wiped anyway if you were going back to stock? Have you been using it with 23gb for a while?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stokholm:
No, haven't been using it for long like that. Only a few days actually. :)

It's not that I have a lot of files, but I do have a lot of settings and app settings. I know I could probably use Titanium Backup to back that stuff up, but I don't trust that method do get everything and not mess something up.

One more question though. Why format cache too? I saw that suggested in the thread I referenced. But isn't it enough to format data? I guess it makes no difference really, but I'm trying to learn in the process too. :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
Yes and no.

Let me explain;

The first problem, which may or may not actually *be* a problem, is whether or not recovery will PERMIT a backup to an OTG. Assuming that it does, it unfortunately will only backup everything on the data partition BESIDES the "media" directory (where the "internal SD card" can be found).

To work around this, perform your backup TO the internal storage, then reboot back to Android, copy *everything" from the "internal storage" path to your computer (which will include the "backup" directory, whatever it happens to be called with the recovery you prefer). Then perform the fastboot format on the data partition, boot into Android skipping all the signin junk, copy everything BACK to the internal storage, reboot into recovery again, and restore it.

ALTERNATIVELY, and probably much easier (definitely much faster, since it should complete within a few seconds)...

I *believe* that most recoveries should include the resize2fs command (though I've never had an actual need for this, so haven't actually tested it), so via ADB into your recovery.....

umount /data
resize2fs /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata

should do the trick.

NOTE HOWEVER, it is generally recommended to backup any partition where you are resizing a filesystem PRIOR to resizing it.

HAVING SAID THAT, I've run resize2fs hundreds of times on hundreds of systems, and never had an issue with a grow operation.

Running resize2fs without a "size" parameter will grow the filesystem to the size of the partition. The partition table still holds the correct size, which is why "fastboot format" fixes the issue.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stokholm:
That was a great explanation, [MENTION=6124077]doitright[/MENTION]. Thank you for that. I will try resize2fs at some point.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MunkinDrunky:
Resizef2s sounds relatively painless, but does again, as doitright says, require caution by backing up before.

About the cache thing. I think to do a full format, data and cache are on different blocks, so that might be why. But then again the SD card is mounted in /data/media so maybe only format data is needed and the cache is to help with something else or just to be cautious, I don't know.

Now I wonder (and this can be searched here in xda) if TWRP back up data is /data/data or /data minus /data/media? Because fastboot format data I think is all of data i.e. /data. This is worth knowing for the future. Especially since we are flashinging things to our phones and whatever else.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitright:
ALL recovery backups are /data/* EXCEPT /data/media, being "backed up" to /data/media/something.

It simply cannot be implemented any other way for devices without separate storage devices, otherwise the backup would back up previous backups, which would be just plain wasteful.

The /cache partition is practically irrelevant. There is quite literally NO REASON to ever worry about it. No reason to wipe it, no reason for format it unless it somehow becomes corrupt.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stokholm:
It doesn't seem like resize2fs is included in TWRP. :(
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The resolution really is as simple as you originally thought. Its a common issue I've seen a hundred times on the nexus 5.

Take a full TWRP backup and then copy your entire sdcard to PC.

Format data

Boot into android and do initial set up.

Copy sdcard backup back to device whilst booted into android

Restore TWRP backup
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrman:
You can use the file manager in TWRP to copy your entire sdcard to USB-OTG and copy it back. Personally, I find this easier than copying to PC.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The reason I said to copy it to PC via android was that using MTP or adb in recovery will break the sdcard permissions, when it is copied back. If you're confident OTG in TWRP works differently to adb and MTP in TWRP, cool. I just haven't tested it myself so won't suggest it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrman:
I used OTG via TWRP's file manager, when I wiped to decrypt and everything came back properly. I would assume that would be the case here as well.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maamdroid:
From within TWRP there is an easy way to do this even after you have your phone all setup. This issue always happens on my Nexus 5 and Nexus 6.

I did this without doing a backup and after my phone has been used on marshmallow for a week or so.

Steps from within TWRP:

1. Wipe > Advanced Wipe

2. Select the Data partition.

3. Select Repair or Change File System

(Notice the Partition Size)

4. Select Resize

(Wait and shortly after see the partition size be up to full size.)

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kolpa06:
I have come across this thread. Here is what worked for me. (in case somebody needs it in the future)

1. Boot into twrp, type

adb shell

2. list the mounted partitions

df

You should see

df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 1507020 24 1506996 0% /dev
tmpfs 1507020 24 1506996 0% /tmp

253920 264 248416 0% /cache

/dev/block/mmcblk0p41
2015408 1965276 33748 98% /system

3. unmount /data and /sdcard

umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p42
umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p41

4. run

e2fsck -f /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata
resize2fs /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata

now you should see:

So I encrypted my moto 4g and all went fine. However I wanted to flash and install an app via my recovery(my device is rooted and I got custom recovery but I'm on stock rom) but It kept saying it could not access the data of the phone. I figured this was because it is encrypted. I also tried restoring an older backup from when the phone was not encrypted but that would not work either. If I do a factory wipe in recovery that won't work either. If I enter the Android settings and choose data wipe the phone starts to bootloop.
