my 6p keep looping google logo , unlock

about three days ago, i turned off my 6p ,when i restarted it , it just stuck on the google logo and then restart and stuck on the google logo again and again.

i did nothing wrong before, even i hadn't got the 7.0 official ota update, i only got a 27M updating package of september which was described as a preparation update for the update of 7.0

my device is locked both oem and the bootloader, so i can only do the reset to factory mode, clear data and cache, no use. i tried to adb sideload the recent google OTAs including MTC20L ,7.0.0 (NRD90T) 7.0.0 (NRD90U), no use. before the brick occured, i got my device ota mtc20l. now i can do nothing but wait for more help from you and hoping google may give a cure. thanks in advance.

No command prompt in recovery mode

New to XDA and nexus have been reading on issue for about a week now and have tried to find a correction to my issue. I followed Heisenberg's guide and after installing TWRP unofficial build for nougat, I receive the "no command" prompt in recovery. Able to repeat the step and boot into TWRP slide the allow system modifications bar. Once again restart phone and have the no command issue. At this point I thought it best to go to step #11 and return the phone to stock, still have no recovery after.

My bootloader is still unlocked and I am open to direction and any suggestions. My past experience has all been Samsung and ODIN, so this is a learning curve.

BTW my apologies for my PM to Heisenberg on the issue, very new to XDA.

After flashing TWRP, flash supersu.zip That will keep your recovery, otherwise it reverts to stock recovery on reboot.

unable to flash or even locate supersu, via twrp

I have tried to flash the supersu.zip file as suggested by Einwod but am unable to find it in twrp. I should add that I uninstalled my drivers for the nexus and reinstalled and was finally greeted with allow usb debugging notice. upon flashing twrp and booting into it this time was prompted to supply a password. by selecting the cancel button, i arrived at the allow system modifications slider and went ahead. I then tried to locate the supersu file in my phone to no avail. Unsure if I need to decrypt or what is going wrong. Will read up more I know this cannot be over my head.

I have only been searching for the answer a few hours now, so I am sure to find it. If this an already asked topic I have yet to find and direction to that post helps.

If I make a nandroid back up with TWRP on nougat, will I have to disable my fingerprints and pin prior to making the backup like with marshmallow?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkredD14:
Hi all, I just bought a 6P user. My question is this: how can I determine if the device's bootloader was ever unlocked? When in recovery I see no unlock status code. My Nexus 6 has a status code 3 now which if I remember correctly means the device was at one time unlocked and then relocked? Anyways thank you for your time.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
As far as I know, there is not stated method to determine if the bootloader was ever unlocked on the 6P. There is a slight chance that if the user ever relocked it, he might have forgotten to disable "OEM unlocking". So, boot into OS, enable Developer options, and see if OEM unlocking option is enabled or disabled. If it is enabled somehow, you can ONLY guess that he tried to unlock or actually did unlock the device, since most average users don't meddle with developer options.

But then, this is just a shot in the dark. Hope it helps in any manner. :good:

Noobish question: Has google made it easy yet to transfer app data to a new phone. I'm on Verizon and coming from a GS4. Does Google backup user/app data? Or do I have to root and use TiBackup?

How do rooted users with twrp update their rom to the newer images from Google? Do we need modified boot images for each update?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ovrclck:
TiBackup still.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbehren:
Ok. But that means I need to root, right? I need to do a little more reading (this is my first Nexus device), but the phone needs to be unrooted to receive updates, right?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ovrclck:
It's all good man. Nexus or not, it's still pretty much all the same. Yes, you will need to flash the updates as root kills OTA.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
You have to boot it up once to turn on usb debugging and check the mark for allowing unlocked bootloader.

Return it to the store you stole it from?

Two finger pulldown from status bar. Wifi should be top left choice. If its not staying connected, could try rebooting your router.

Some posts about router compatibility issues. Mine works great but router is running dd-wrt firmware.

Are you paying for hotspot? If so, contact Verizon, if not, seems it's working for some, not for others.

Depends. If you didn't decrypt the phone after unlocking, probably not. I tried with encryption on and it failed every time. Decrypting wipes the phone.

Might depend on sim inserted. Seems some carriers are holding up updates or updates aren't needed if only fixing certain carrier compatibility issues. You can sideload update i think.

Should just be able to put sim in it. If it doesn't like it,

Call Verizon and they can add IMEI number of phone to the system and should fix it.

You can transfer apps but data still doesn't happen. I've found i don't need data for most apps restored. But yeah, titanium backup

Works. Once rooted, install it, maybe backup one app to make sure folder is created, then copy backups to that folder.

Maybe so, seems that skip is posting them in his toolkit thread. Sucks that Google is getting so anal about things.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbehren:
Cool. Thanks.

Can I root, install TiBU, restore app data, uninstall TiBU, and re-root to again allow OTAs?

Thanks for the reply. :) I didnt actually mean how do you "find" it, more so how well do you find it working :p but you answered that pretty much as well :)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
Probably not because you had to flash modified boot and decrypt to get root, correct? I'm note sure that would pass the checks for OTA.

It's a little more involved, but devs got us hooked up.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asj0422:
Do I still have the protection that stock provides that tells me if something (/system or whatever) has been modified without my doing? (Chainfire did have root that didn't modify system... Is there a root guide for this phone I can read? Or is it still OEM unlock?) I know probably not, but it seems that there should be a way for the device to recognize root stuff done by the user and call it okay, and recognize root stuff attempted by malicious apps on the phone and block it.

Sorry for lots of questions in one post. This noob-friendly thread is great.:good:

Dear N6P users! ;)

This is my second attempt, as my first one no one replied. I have couple of question regarding the NP6 before buying.

Any answer is highly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

1. How is the headphone sound quality of N6P compared to iPhone 6? As I hear music through headphones a lot, this is quite important. Is it loud enough? On N5 the stock volume isn't as good as on the iPhone. I always had to root it to get better=louder sound.

2. Are there new stock ringtones compared to N6? The N6' ones are different to N5, AFAIK.

3. Anyone coming from N5 having issues regarding the size of N6P?

4. Any other relevant issues/things worth noting before buying N6P or you would've wanted to know before you bought this phone?

Kind regards.

I have both just got np6. Moto X pure is OK but development is slow. CM is only custom and the guys are struggling must be some difficult problems I'm not a dev. There close though. I think things may get better when 6.0 drops. The Np6 on the other hand seems like a great phone if I could only get the darn thing unlocked.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rchtk:
Knowing that the device has been unlocked doesn't bring much. What is important is that secure boot gives you a status of the current state of modification. If (the legal) modding has been reversed, you basically have the same device as one which was never modified.

Hi all

I am still unable to update to Nougat with the factory image. When I try to flash system.img I get "error: cannot load C:xxxx\system.img"

I updated Android studio. I downloaded the factory image three times. Happens with both nougat images.

What am I doing wrong?

Now I restocked to the last mm build and waiting for the ota (taking part in the beta program) but nothing... I heard the update is delayed because of battery issues but that was 2 weeks ago.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizmoe:
You have to unpack the zip within the factory image to get the system IMG and put it in the same path you are in or CD to it first then flash it.

Have you tried doing it the way android recommends. I always just flash the factory image itself. Follow the directions on the image page to flash the image. You will lose all your data so be prepared for that. If you don't want it to wipe just edit the flash script and remove the -w near the bottom.

Nexus 6P, build NBD90X (Android 7 October security patch): I've never understood the logic of a notification bar at the top of the screen on modern Android phones. I'm wondering whether there's a quick or easy way to modify something in Android so the notification bar appears at the bottom of the screen instead? Like right about the task bar, and functions just like normal. When notifications pop up, it should also the right there at the bottom such that you can slide it up and it reveals the rest of the notifications too.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizmoe:
You would have to rewrite a lot to do that and I have never heard of anyone asking for that. Sounds like you want it to look like windows. I like the layout of Ubuntu better than windows and its taskbar is on top too. So I am biased. I would be annoyed if my notification bar was on the bottom. You can use custom Roms or modules though to enable swipe gestures. You could swipe up from the bottom and have the notice bar drop down. There are launchers in the store too that will do this too.

I think I have messed up my device, and I'm unable to unbrick it.

I was on WETA android N and had everything running great for a few weeks. No problems to speak of. Yesterday I checked for new roms and saw one that looked like it would be a great choice. I made a backup and flashed the new rom. Because how many of us aren't just addicted to flashing roms... Anyway, I flashed OctOS N and everything was fine. It worked overnight and this morning.. But something wasn't to my liking, I can't remember what it was at this point. I tried to go into TWRP and restore my nandroid backup. But now I'm in a boot loop. It boots to the bootloader, and could get into TWRP. I tried wiping data and cache/etc. a couple of times. No good. So then I tried flashing a factory image to my device with the walkthrough in this forum. "fastboot flash xxx xxx.img" etc... But I'm still unable to get it to boot. it gets to Google, then reboots and over and over again. I can get into stock recovery, and did try wiping data and cache and it still boot loops....
