Hi,
I Have My Galaxy Nexus , i finished backing up my phones SD Partition, that went smoothly ...
Then I went to peerform a Nandroid back up i received a Boot image error..
Then i went to boot up the device normally since i received the error and once it boots into android after the lock screen it shuts off and reboots over and over....
I went to format cache and format Data and the same thing happens only strange thing is it still showed my normal desktop set up apposed to starting fresh before it shuts off into another boot sequence...
i need help.
Other known issue i couldn't boot into usb (Mac) while in CWM
EDIT: Now CWM is backing up the boot image/Nandroid... (Strange), still need help because of bootloop
EDIT2: stopped at error in backup / data due to me formatting

A rom reflash will fix it. The reason the back up doesnt work is it is just backing up what you have and it is broken so to speak. Not sure about using a mac but put a fresh rom zip on your sd card and then flash the rom and let it boot. The common issue for this is doing a reset after the rom flash which removes somethings the roms need to boot.

I woke up today to a bootloop. After pulling out the battery, I cant turn it on, it was stuck at the google logo. I thought it was some rom issue or something. When I had the time, in the afternoon, I just boot to recovery, and wiped data+sd card. Turns out sd card was not wiped.
Just now, I found a way to boot it. (AFTER WIPING DATA) I used the gnex toolkit and boot with insecure image, and guess wat? My old rom boots. Everything was the way it was, and then it crashed and stuck on the google logo again.(I made sure i wiped things two to three times, data and sd) I did a few experiments:
1) Flash using ODIN
2) Flash CWM using toolkit--it changed back to twrp after reboot
3) Changing the icon on my homescreen after boot--- everything was the same again after booting
4) Flash stock image using toolkit
5) Wipe data using manual adb
6) Try to lock my bootloader
So I was updating six rom and phone went into continuous boot. So went into recovery and wiped all but internal memory and reinstalled. Same boot problem. Went into fast boot and pushed another over as well as a vendor image. Tried installing the new rom, beans gaps, super su and same result. I've left the phone for over 20 mins with no result but the boot screen.
I'm having a similar problem.
My status- Unlocked bootloader, twrp accessible, devices not getting detected in fastboot mode by the pc, rooted, restoring using the backup results in a bootloop, correct drivers installed on the pc, superSU and full backup in the mobile.
i cant transfer files since device not getting detected.
my timeline- i followed every instruction on https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206930 and everything went successful, but when it rebooted to the 'Welcome' page (the page which comes when u open mobile for the first time) i restarted my nexus 5x 32gb to recovery mode and then the every boot procedure doesn't complete for several minutes(doesn't go ahead the ball animation)
Was running the pixel experience rom, have been for a month.. and I had a very strange issue today, the whole phone just froze, I force restarted it, and everytime It would reboot it would just hang/freeze or unlock and display nothing on my screen but the wallpaper.. ended up trying to restore from an old backup I had, but realized it was when I was running an oreo rom.. got stuck in a loop for fastboot, used twrp to re-install this rom, and it was taking forever to boot, at the G logo.. so stupidly instead of having patience and waiting, I rebooted and formatted data, or tried too, (read it somewhere) and its just been hung on that for hours now "formatting data" Dunno what to do.. I should have just waited on the initial boot after re-installing this rom, forgot it took forever.. dunno if should just keep waiting.. or try an flash back stock rom, and re-do everything.. I think my data partition is corrupted, or unmountable.. so not for sure how to proceed.
Format data or wipe data ?? Formatting data will remove encryption and everything will be erased
Wipe data just erases data partition
Try to clean flash once again by wiping system data cache
Here is the issue now.. when I would go to format data, it would just stay stuck on formatting data with ext4 or w/e ... I left it for an hour or more, and nothing.... so decided to use miflash an restore everything. it goes all the way... but never actually says success just still says flashing, even with the green bar full and says finished 200s or something.. the last part of the log always stops after:
"[3:52:43 AM 49c50e2d]:err:writing 'vendor' 2/2...
[3:52:43 AM 49c50e2d]:errKAY [ -0.000s]
[3:52:43 AM 49c50e2d]:err:finished. total time: 23.850s"
so I've let that set for 20 minutes or more, then finally I just manually kick it out of fast boot, and it'll start to boot with MI Logo, and it has the white bar at the bottom, the bar loads all the way then it just hangs there, ive left it over night an its just stuck there
Even now I can fastboot flash a recovery image, and boot into it, but its unable to mount data, missing crypto header.. maybe I should just let the "format data" take its time maybe eventually it will?
