Nexus 5X stuck in bootup - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a Nexus 5X that was on the latest 8.1 firmware, and I successfully downgraded to the latest 6.0.1 firmware by unlocking the device and flashing everything separately. Here's what I did
Enable OEM unlock in Developer settings
Reboot to boot loader
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flashing unlock (had to do this cos after rebooting, device is locked again)
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot flash recover recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot reboot
After this, I get the "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and may not work properly" boot up message, but continue anyway, after which the device boots up and I set up the new device as per normal.
Then, I tried to flash TWRP in order to install Magisk. It is during this step that the device is stuck in the bootup process with the 4 colorful circles. Here's what I did
Reboot to boot loader
fastboot flash recover twrp-recovery.img
Reboot to recovery to check TWRP has been installed (it has)
Reboot to system (stuck in bootup!)
How can I get it to boot up again?

I ended up waiting for the battery to drain and the device to shutdown.

if no boot loader you have to use unbrick threads.
If you had a flashed back a stock recovery and boot.img if on rooted mm bl with giovix modder tool , you could've downgraded via sd card and stock recovery ..in my link below
There were 2 different cm 13s , one with mm bl and one based on 5.
.
Unbricked
So i unbricked the phone! Everything was success! xfstk worked then i got the 4 color screen and after that the bootloader!
Extracted the .raw file and then flashed using commands, but when the phone tries to reboot, it gets stuck on the ASUS logo! waited half an hour for that! Service center people say that its a motherboard problem! Any advice ?

How to unroot and relock recovery? (fully revert to stock)

I have unlocked and rooted Nexus 5x and would like to revert back to stock + relock bootloader.
What is the easiest and safest way to achieve this?
download fastboot and fastboot drivers then download latest factory image from here https://developers.google.com/android/images?hl=en and unzip it now you should have 6 files but we are gona use only 3 bootloader-bullhead-something.img radio-bullhead-something.img image-bullhead-something.zip now flash bootloader
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-something.img then fastboot reboot-bootloader then fastboot flash radio-bullhead-something.img and fastboot reboot-bootloader now unzip the other file and cd into it then fastboot flash boot boot.img fastboot flash recovery recovery.img fastboot flash system system.img fastboot flash vendor vendor.img fastboot flash userdata userdata.img and finaly fastboot flash cache cache.img now start your device and if it boots normaly reboot to bootloader again and run fastboot flashing lock (this is gonna wipe all your data so dont set up anything just make sure it boots)
or just run flash-all

Sorry My Bad @Homeboy76
Have you tried these steps below?
If you have modified a little the stock android (hosts file, root, kernel, etc.), you may experience a fail in OTA update;
If you have a bootloop/soft brick/not sure of the state of your android system;
This WILL NOT delete your data and apps. This will remove your custom kernel/root/hosts/recovery through (which is a good thing because it will be clean then).
1) Download your system image for Marlin (Pixel XL) on google website.
download the latest version
2) Unzip the file marlin-nde63v-factory-______.zip
3) Unzip inside the new directory (marlin-nde63v) the image-marlin-_____.zip
Execute fastboot commands (assuming the bin is on your PATH)
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-marlin-*.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash system_b system_other.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot flash modem modem.img
fastboot reboot
to add TWRP;
fastboot boot /path/to/twrp.img
then In TWRP, install twrp.zip for permanent twrp. Goodluck!

Rooting Motorola G6 Play gone wrong

Hi everyone,
I bought a Motorola G6 play model XT1922-3 type 374B and wanted root acces on this device.
So I started by succesfully unlocking my bootloader using the following tutorial.
After this a started tried to root the device using this tutorial.
This tutorial doesn't link to boot images anymore so I was able to find the moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img somewhere else.
I did the following things:
- reboot to bootloader [Succesfull]
- fastboot boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img [Unsuccesfull]
The device did boot the twrp image but I was unable to interact with it in any way. I couldn't swipe or press buttons.
I made a short video to show this.
I wanted to retry the whole thing so I did reboot to bootloader but then I accidently entered the following command:
fastboot flash boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img picture of command prompt
After this I wasn't able to normally boot my device. When I try to do so the screen goes black and says n/a in the left corner.
Please does anyone know how I could either be able to boot my normal stock rom again or to have a rooted rom?
Kind regards Sven Onderbeke
Hi Sven,
This isn't going to be the most advanced reply, as I'm not very experienced with this stuff either, but it seems you have accidentally flashed your twrp image to 'boot', wherever that is, which is why the phone isn't able to boot to system.
Can you still boot into bootloader and recovery (twrp)?
If so, then I'd suggest using fastboot to flash a sock or custom ROM. I'm not sure exactly which one though, you have basically the same model as me and that seems to use the JETER ROMS a list of which are over here (can't post links yet, so you will just have to search on mirrors . lolnet . com /firmware/moto/jeter/official/ or remove the spaces
I seem to have somehow lost the partitions on mine, but will start a new thread question about that.

Just flash a stock boot.img to boot. Then just flash TWRP to recovery. In TWRP, format data. Type yes. Then reboot recovery. Then Use TWRP to flash magisk. Done.
Hi again Sven,
I just wanted to let you know that I just downloaded the following RETAIL ROM
ALJETER_RETAIL_9.0_PPPS29.55-35-1_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
and used the following fastboot commands, one at a time.
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot flash dsp adspso.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash oem oem.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot erase carrier
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase DDR
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot reboot
Which rebooted into bootloader so pressed "start" and all booted fine now. It looks like we have the same device, so hopefully that will work for you too.

Question Root OXYGEN OS 13 MT2111_11_F.11 ?

Is there any way we can root MT2111_11_F.11 because for me fastboot appears to be missing as when i try volume down and power it just keeps on restarting after a see the fastboot screen for 0.01secs.
I tried using adb reboot bootloader as well but didn't work.
You should use adb reboot fastboot instead. Note that this mode doesn't allow to unlock bootloader if it is locked. But if bootloader was unlocked earlier, you may use flash command to flash patched boot.img
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
go to github magisk, get apk install it on your phone, download your Full OTA, extract it via payload.bin extractor and take out boot.img then patch boot.img using magisk and do fastboot flash boot magiskpatchedboot.img
Original boot.img for oos f11 to patch

Button combination = Fastboot Logo flashes for a split second, Phone instantly restarts to system, no access to bootloader therefore impossible to use flash commands
adb from system > reboot to bootloader = exact same as above.
Not bootloader, but userspace fastboot (fastbootd) mode. The command is
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
