Your issue might be due to the encryption of the phone. Take a look at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-8-7-0-touch-recovery-t3234976

From this thread:

NOTE: Decrypting data is not supported yet. The Nexus 6P will normally attempt to encrypt the device automatically on first boot. To use TWRP as you normally would, you will have to format data and install a slightly modified boot image with forceencrypt disabled. My Nexus 6P should arrive tomorrow and I will start working on decrypt once I get my hands on it.

Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amirfk12:
Read through that thread. Part of the issue is that I don't know which variant (MDA89D & MDB08K) I have, or how to find that out seeing as I can't boot into the phone.

If I have the variant I may be able to fix this through the unified toolkit (though I'm not sure of that)

Did you ever fix this?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigdave79:
Try flashing the factory image and starting from scratch. You must have messed up somewhere. Re-download the boot.img from Chainfire's thread, maybe that was corrupt or something.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kibmikey1:
1. Download the MDB08K factory image (it's not a variant, it's a Marshmallow update) and unzip it.

2. Download the MDB08K boot.zip from Chainfire's modified boot.img thread

3. Download latest SuperSU beta zip

Wipe phone in TWRP, to include format data.

In bootloader, fastboot flash MDB08K

fastboot flash modified boot.img (from zip)

In TWRP, ADB sideload SuperSU

Reboot and it should perform normally.

Thank you for your reply, but I can't get into TWRP either!! Any way for me to restore to factory or do the repairs from in flashboot without the restore?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tysonwald:
I ran into the same issue last night trying to install TWRP. I'm still not sure how to get around it but I did get my phone back. you should be able to get to the bootloader (hold the power button until phone turns off, then hold vol up+vol down+power) once there use ADB fastboot to go back to stock.

this link will walk you through what you need. follow step 7.

here it is as well:

How To Flash The Factory Images (And Return To Stock)

Prerequisites: unlocked bootloader (section 1).

Download the appropriate factory images for your model here.

Unzip the angler-xxxxxx-factory-xxxxxxxx (x's replace variables) into a directory on your PC (for this guide we'll use C:\angler\).

Once unzipped you should have a folder named angler-xxxxxx (x's replace variables). Open it and move the following files to a new directory named C:\angler\images\:

bootloader-angler-angler-01.31.img

radio-angler-angler-01.29.img

(Please note that radio and bootloader naming changes from build to build so the filenames and below commands will change with them)

Within C:\angler\angler-xxxxxx\ you'll see another zip archive named image-angler-xxxxxx, unzip the contents of that zip into the C:\angler\images\ folder we created before. Now within C:\angler\images\ you should have the following files:

android-info.txt

boot.img

bootloader-angler-angler-01.31.img

cache.img

radio-angler-angler-01.29.img

recovery.img

system.img

userdata.img

vendor.img

Boot into the bootloader and connect your phone to your PC via usb cable.

Open a command prompt from within your fastboot folder (navigate to where you have fastboot.exe located on your PC, shift + right click anywhere within that folder, select open command prompt here), enter these commands to flash:

Code:

fastboot flash bootloader C:\angler\images\bootloader-angler-angler-01.31.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio C:\angler\images\radio-angler-m8994f-2.6.28.0.65.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash boot C:\angler\images\boot.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot flash cache C:\angler\images\cache.img

fastboot flash recovery C:\angler\images\recovery.img

fastboot flash system C:\angler\images\system.img

fastboot flash userdata C:\angler\images\userdata.img

fastboot flash vendor C:\angler\images\vendor.img

Thank you. I was eventually able to do tysonwald's suggestion. First I didn't know what my version was, so I couldn't.

At some point I was able to get into the phone with constant gapp errors, check it.

Now my phone is unlocked and rooted. But when I go to settings to security (and when I tried to set up my fingerprint) settings crashes. Any ideas?

There was still some issue. I wiped the phone with the above method again, did NOT set up twrp/root, and everything works. It was something about the custom boot image I guess. Any advice if I want to try to set it up again?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiltron:
Can you get it into bootloader mode?

If yes, the version number will be listed in there.

The whole "flash a boot img" thing is useless IMO - I've never used that to root or anything, as I just flash TWRP, install the ROM of choice, and then flash the SuperSU 2.76 Systemless, which seems to create a boot.img file in the process and flashes it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidAlloy:
I tried everything possible.Looks like I returning this phone for warranty repairs once again and I just got it back today. It worked for about 5 mins. It boot loops, can't get into recovery. I tried installing recovery with every method. Nothing works. I did a complete wipe and format too. No matter what recovery I try to install none work. Cannot get into it. One of the Huawei repair centers had it in Texas for almost 3 weeks too and it looks like I will be without it for another 3 weeks. This is ridiculous.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bugattixda:
I managed to solve this on my 6P rather simply. At first nothing seemed to work, but because I had recently upgraded to N 7.0.1 the phone was built with M.

Meaning. I went into bootloader then into recovery, wiped everything with the recovery mode factory reset and it rebooted in 7.0.

Everything is gone, but for now its up and running again. Hopefully till the replacement Fi is sending arrives. Although there's a permanent system update notification to upgrade to Android 7.0
[General Topics] whoster69:
I just picked up an HTC X7501 Advantage and I'm trying to find the best way to run Gmail on it. So far I've tried three methods:

1) running the web version on Pocket IE or Opera

2) the java app for gmail (http://www.google.com/mobile/mail/index.html)

3) Pocket Gmail (http://gmobile.phpmagazine.net/)

Of the three the java app crashes fairly often but seems to work the best when it runs. Pocket Gmail offers some options the others don't but doesn't look as good as the java app. the web version is probably the worst of the three.

I tried setting up Outlook to retrieve my gmail but it stopped after about 500 messages and only seemed to download the oldest ones. It also can't support threads (something I love).

How do other people run Gmail on Windows Mobile devices? Any ideas or suggestions?
[General Topics] TC1:
To get around the POP / Outlook / which messages to retreive issue, there are little known commands to use in GMAIL. In your outlook setup for your Gmail account, prepend your usename with "recent:". So your username should look like

recent:johnsmith@gmail.com

See what happens when you retrieve messages now, this might be what you are looking for.

T-Mobile Solution

Hi,

This may only work if you have T-Mobile in the US but I take advantage of T-Mobile's mail server for my gmail. I set up the account on t-mobile's website and access it on my phone using t-mobile's pop3 servers. Works great but every month or so I have to go on my t-mobile site and delete the old mail off or it stops collecting any new mail. Hope that helps somebody.

So I followed the XDA guide on rooting. After getting back to the setup screen, I constantly got:

Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped.

It was literally constant to the point where I could only type one letter at a time. Okay, so I tried factory reset via TWRP. No good. So I downloaded a factory image and tried to flash it, and now my phone sits at the Google/padlock screen forever.

What do I do? I still have fastboot and TWRP access. I'm not sure the images are completely copying to the Nexus when I try to put them directly on the phone. Using Google's image and flash-all command ends in:

writing 'system'...

FAILED (remote: unknown command)

What you mentioned is split view.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArtfulCodger:
So, have a relatively new Z fully updated to 5.1.1 NOT rooted. Wanted to move games from old Nexus (Samsung). Installed Helium on Nexus knowing about the issue of Xperia Z not supporting 3rd party backup apps.

So Carbon folder on PC for some reason didn't contain the required .json files so Helium restore on the Z didn't recognise that any backups existed. There are dozens of threads about Helium backups not being recognised. I reckon this is probably the main reason. So being an Android noob I ended up just emailing the .json files to myself from the Nexus and then copying them into the respective carbon folders...bingo Helium recognised the backups and restored the apps correctly. No fiddling with scripts, roots or anything else.....

Hopefully this might help someone else...obviously there are probably even simpler ways of moving the .json files I just decided to 'send' them via email.

BTW I only registered to let everyone else who is having this problem know of what ended up being a simple fix....

Hello,

I am getting weak signals on my Nexus 6 (purchased recently) for the SIM Card and for the WIFI, where good Signal Strength are expected. When I talk on the phone the Signal goes to 0 immediately, which aborts the call. This happens several times. Then after 10 - 60 seconds, the signal comes back automatically. This doesn't happen for other phones I have tested in this area. So is there anything I have to do in-order to get a full signal all the time without interruption ? I have googled, but I was not able to find a fix for this issue. Please suggest.

Hi again,

so i recently fixed my keyboard issue and to lighten up darkness: it was not a software-issue.

after playing with the thought of returning the phone to tmobile, i flashed the "new official" tmobile-DE rom, and the tmobile service center told me, that this would void my warranty because the rom hasn't been downloaded from the offical tmobile-DE website... so i discarded the option of returning the phone in the next few month ;)

toda i woke up and retried my hardware-keyboard on the vario 2, i recognized something which was: the reason for the vario dropping so much keypresses, was a bad contactivity... i mean: i can hear the key i press "clicking" but no char appeared on the screen... so i disassembled the vario 2 todays morning, and searched for a way to fix this, a way to give the keyboard a better fitting, or somewhat like that. the difficultest thing was to remove the "void"-label without tearing it... took me about 15 minutes to remove this damn label, but it remained intact :D

after that, i systematically disassembled the phone, and i did the following things to the keyboard-parts:

removed the white label which was on the "contact-side" of the keyboard-circuit

realligned this label and put it back on the circuit

then i put the keys and the circuit back into the housing, and got a piece of paper

i cut this to be as long an high as the circuit itself is, and put 3 of those paper-sheets onto the back of the keyboard-circuit, then fixed the 3 sheets a little with the flex-cable connecting the keyboard to the main-circuit.

then put the phone back together an tested it

my keyboards working like a charm right now, i'm so happy that my phones completely working again, without returning it :)

i thought this might help someone who has got same problems, perhaps my keyboard got this malfunction after the first drop, i do not remember when this problem occured the first time, and actually... i don't have to anymore ;)

greetings from germany

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
There can be software issues that cause freezing and perhaps laggy behaviour on the keyboard. However, from what you describe, I tend to think it's primarily a hardware issue. (Possibly made worse or even more annoying by software slow downs for unrelated reasons.

If having used different ROMs, key behaviour is still largely the same (eg the same keys respond poorly or require harder presses) then I suggest you have the not uncommon hardware keyboard issue:

Keyboard dismantling pics:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=319315&page=2

If changing ROMs leads to varying issues with the key board, but the behaviour of the keys changes ie different keys cause problems then it could either be software or the keyboard ribbon cable is poorly connected.

i'll test the keys some more, especially the space, e, w, and "reddot" seem malfunctional... will keep an eye on the keys, and if original WM5 rom does not help, i will reflash the phone to factory default, and return the phone to my nearest store... they will have a solution :) and if it will be a replacement i'll be happy with it either ;)
