yes, the bootloader is unlocked and try it with adb 'fastboot', also looking in my backups, I had made a backup with the recovery twrp, that I have the system_image.emmc.wim, which weighs 3.5gb, no I know if I can take out the rom stock from there

you have followed my tutorial, the cmd starts well with mfastboot ......
because this rom and for all models.

[Q] Face Unlock issue

Hello guys,
this morning I've received the 4.3 OTA. The entire installation was ok, but my face unlock option is not working anymore.
When I try to unlock using FaceUnlock, i had this message error: "Face Unlock couldn't start".
I've already tried several changes in settings but without success.
Any suggestions to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Hi I had the same issue, looked around but couldn't find anything. Managed to sort it out myself tho, if you have unlocked your bootloader and have fastboot on your computer then all you need to do is download the factory images for your phone from here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images extract the system.img file the boot into your bootloader and use the commands
1)"fastboot flash system system.img" then
2a)"fastboot reboot-bootloader"
2b)"fastboot format cache" (not sure if these two steps are necessary boot did no harm for me).
3) "fastboot reboot"
If your rooted you will lose root so will need to re root your phone
Thanks fezy.
It worked for me as well.
No problem, glad it worked for you too

Bootloop after flashing stock image

Hi guys, my nexus 5x is locked bootloader and i was running the last Android 7.1.1 stock. I decided to try the last CM14.1, entered TWRP and made a backup. I installed CM14.1 and gapps and my phone was in a bootloop. I decided then to restore my backup, restoration was successful but when i pressed reboot system, I was in a bootloop, at Google dots logo. I flashed successfully the DP 7.1.1 image but couldn't get out the bootloop. Flashed the last stock 7.0 image with the same result. I can access fastboot and recovery but until now couldnt get my phone to start and get out this bootloop. What can I do? Is it a hardware issue as i read somewhere on XDA?
Any help and advices please, I live in a country with no Google service center and I am desperate.
If flashing full stock (all not only system) and full wiping doesn't solve your issue sounds like the infamous hardware problem.
Make sure you didn't restore efs backup taken with twrp 3.0.2.1 otherwise look for efs fix.

You can't.
If you have a locked bootloader all you can do is to flash a full ota package from stock recovery and to wipe/factory reset if it let you to.
If it doesn't fix your issue unfortunately you have to RMA the phone.

when you restored from your backup, was EFS checked when you restored? if it was then you have an EFS file corruption. I personally wrote up a solution to this, here's a link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/efs-file-corruption-fix-t3502473
make sure you follow the instructions, this has to be done with the Nexus root toolkit command window open with your phone in TWRP recovery and hooked up to your computer. if you try this, let me know how it goes and if you need help.
edit: your bootloader is unlocked which I know for sure, you can still boot into bootloader and re-root and install twrp back onto your phone even though you're boot looping. I know because the same thing happened to me and was still able to flash a custom recovery.
Yeah it is the EFS problem related to buggy versions of TWRP. Just use dd to to clear the EFS partitions - the chipset will luckily autogenerate the EFS contents on first boot.
Next time dont restore EFS partition from your backups and everything will be perfectly okay.
Makes me wonder how many hundreds of people have sent the device to RMA because of this issue.

Forgive me but what is DD?
I have a locked bootloader with stock recovery. What is this DD you are talking about? Will it be successful with this bootloader and stock?

try this command: fastboot flashing unlock when in bootloader mode.
If it works flash TWRP and do the guide which was mentioned before my previous post.

This command is to unlock the bootloader right? But I guess if the OEM unlock is not selected in developer options within Android, it won't work, or correct me if I am wrong.

You can try. I heard somewhere that it may work if you apply it before booting the android the first time (technically your android cant boot at the moment).

How did you accomplish this? I can't get RSD Lite to detect my phone (although fastboot devices shows it listed) and I can't flash the full firmware via adb because I keep getting "Image not signed or corrupt". I'm really confused.

I kept getting the "Image not signed or corrupt" whenever I had to flash the boot.img but I ignored the error once to try and see if it had any positive outcome, and it worked fine !
Can't flash stock ROM, can you do a detail installation log?

Is ur bootloader unlocked or not??
If not try unlock ur bootloader than try it ll work
From what I can tell you will always get the "Image not signed or corrupt" error, but it works anyways. Idk why but it doesnt matter as long as it works . Motorola(Lenovo) has the instructions to flash stock firmware on your device, just download the firmware for your device and follow those instructions.

Did you only flash the stock rom or did you try to flash everything? If you didnt try to flash everything I would try that and make sure you have the correct stock firmware for your device before you do that. Theres not really much else you can do other than try flashing in twrp, but idk if twrp supports space chunks, but it does support images. If it really comes down to it, you can force flash the system partition in twrp, but you would need the whole system image and not space chunks.

why i cannot flash anything with bootloader ?!

I've unlocked my bootloader but now each time i try to use the bootloader it won't do anything !! it keeps showing me FAILED (remote: unknown command) ! does anyone facing the same problem ? because i cannot even stock flash my phone !
