Nexus freezes when trying to flash the system.img - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to flash the remix os but system.img just freezes. Every .img flashes fine except for system. So I tried to flash back to stock lollipop and I'm having the same problem. I tried the flash the all script, manually flash each one and wugfresh, all freeze on flashing the system.img I've waited over half an hour each time and no change. I took a picture of the message that shows up when I disconnect my tablet after waiting for half an hour.

Maybe try formatting system through fastboot. (Fastboot format system). Then try flashing

Help! Can't boot / cant get into recovery. ..

I was unlocked and rooted and ready to install CM7. I followed all the instructions in the Official Atrix CM7 OP to the T, but when it rebooted, I got stuck on the boot screen with "unlocked" and the red M logo.
I tried to repeat the process several times and ended kind of giving up, factory wiping, and then trying to restore my backup. It appeared to restore successfully, but when I rebooted the phone now wont boot at all. I can't even get it into recovery. No combination or order of button presses or battery pulls / usb plugins will turn it on. I just have a green light like it's charging but nothing is working.
Is it possible to brick your phone even after you have been successfully unlocked and rooted just while you are trying to install CM7?
Please help. I am really desperate here. . .

are you using the right recovery? romracer or rom manager!
i am using the tenfar CWM included in the Atrix 4G Automatic Unlock script package. will this not work?
if not, how do I replace it with the right recovery if I cant even get into the phone?

no, that the old recovery you can use the rom manager if you have , or romracer latest recovery you can find that in the development section, also ther was instruction in the cm7 thread.
you should have left it alone at the M boot screen because it takes about 5-10min to boot after unlock and flash...
everything you do now will have to be through fastboot DO NOT SBF FLASH ANYTHING!!!
Go here to use Fastboot
then download the system.img and boot.img from here
use fastboot to push the boot.img and system.img to your phone
if it gets stuck at the M boot screen let it sit for at least 10min
EDIT: get Romracer recovery from here and push that through to your phone through fastboot
Yeah youre going to have to fastboot wipe recovery then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Just download rom racers and rename it..recovery.img

Great. Sorry to be such a noob, but do I decompress the CWM-recovery-atrix5.zip file and push the recovery.img file that's inside it? or push the CWM-recovery-atrix5.zip itself?
Also - every time I am able to get my phone into fastboot mode, it says my battery is too weak to flash anything. I cant seem to get the battery to charge enough to execute any fastboot commands. Any way around this? a powered usb hub?

If you can borrow another Atrix user's battery, or take yours to an AT&T store and see if they can charge it for you.
If you're able to get back into recovery then you can just flash the zip.
If not, you'll need to extract the recovery.img to use it with fastboot, or just download it directly from the OP in romracer's thread. (The left hand link is just the .img, the right hand side is the CWM .zip) Then place it in the same directory as fastboot.
So I can literally flash a different recovery from within another?

yes but it MUST be working proper first ! its ok to use rom managers cwm but i just prefer the otherone alawys have but n e way there are only 2 that are current (uptodate )
thoughs 2 and with romracers you can. chose
a color that you like not just blue

Its the recovery from tenfar CWM. When I can get it into recovery it seems to be working - with the obvious exception of successfully installing CM7
So I can flash romracer recovery from inside tenfar recovery?
sorry if im being redundant - just dont want to screw it up!
thanks
Just download rom racers cwm. Img, head into fastboot and then fastboot flash recovery recovery-****** (whatever yer recovery image color u chose is)

I was able after a full day of leaving the phone plugged in, to charge it up. Then I flashed the rom racer recovery, rebooted into recovery (new version), installed CM7, installed gapps, and voila! A working CM7 Atrix. thank you soo soo much guys.

The phone stuck in boot screen and overheat, then restart.
In recovery mode is just black screen.
Phone has Neutrino 2.6GT+ ROM whit Clemsyn's OC kernel 1.6GHz and it has unlocked bootloader.
Can I change the kernel without booting in os or recovery?
This problem show after I was extracting very big zip file and phone overheat.

I am actually having this same problem.
My warranty-replacement (unrelated ear-piece failure) had 2.3.6 pre-installed. Thinking little of it, I unlocked the BL and rooted the phone as usual. After this, I tried to install a couple of the ROM's (Neutrino and Morrisoft) which I was most happy with on my previous Atrix.
After flashing either Neutrino or Morrislee's ROM, the phone hung on the M screen. Waiting approximately 30 minutes with no change, I pulled the battery.
When trying to enter recovery mode, the phone would state, "entering recovery mode..." Then go black.
I ended up using RSDLite and sbf flashing the stock 2.3.6 sbf file back to the phone. Then, I had to re-unlock the bootloader and re-root.
This never happened up to, and including 2.3.4, but did twice last night on these ROM's using 2.3.6, and I've flashed many ROM's and Kernels.
It happened to a lesser extent when trying to flash Clemsyn's stock enhanced kernel to the stock ROM, as I was able to enter recovery mode. Entering recovery mode, it would give errors: mounting cache, mounting system errors, and errors to accessing recovery and recovery log files.
Restore recovery would fail in this state, giving me the above errors as well.
Trying to mount the cache and system in recovery would fail. Trying to format cache and system then mounting these could occur temporarily, but would revert back to unmounted when a restore was attempted.
For these problems I pushed a recovery through fastboot.
Just one word: Fastboot. See if Fastboot works and flash everything from there. Or, as Alterna suggested, flash through RSDLite, but that a little dangerous and can brick your phone if you don't know what you are doing. Hope it helps.
Problem sloved!!!

[GUIDE] How to flash Factory Images from Google for the Nexus devices

Guide also available here: http://rirozizo.blogspot.com/2013/11/guide-how-to-flash-factory-images-from.html (WITH PICTURES )
Sit back, relax, don't be scared, it's fast, and easy...
So you want to upgrade your android version, or you're rooted and on a custom ROM... either way, you want an upgraded version of your android, you want it official, unrooted, but you can't wait for OTA.
Go to developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and download the appropriate image for your device, pick the android version you want.
Preparing yourself
-You'll get a tgz file, extract that
--There's a file in that extracted tgz, a zip file, when you extract it it's gonna show you all the .img files we're interested in.
-Extract that file.
--Now you'll see all the .img files... that's what we're intrested in.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Let's get to business!
--I really hate anything automated (exceptions apply), so let's do it the manual way.
-Boot your nexus into bootloader by plugging it in the PC, and typing this into the cmd:
adb reboot bootloader
--When you're in bootloader, leave it there.
-Type this:
fastboot devices
--Check if your device is shown. If it is, type these, and let every command finish before typing the next one:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img NOTE: This WILL wipe your DATA!
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now that every command has finished, you flashed your factory image. so reboot.
when it boots, finish the setup and reboot once again and let it settle for about 5 minutes to let android relax after some hard work.

What did you do to get into a bootloop? A factory reset in the stock recovery will normally get you past a bootloop, but it will wipe your device

nothing happened for a long time
then i searched on google ..downloaded SDK, nexus 4 image ..and tried to flash ..evrything went fine I till tried to flash the bootloader image and got message "failed (remote flash write failure)"
And I am stuck at this stage please advise
Now when i retstart phone goes directly into bootloader menu - may as i have erased other stuff while flashing..
Please help me ---- I do not want to loose my phone....

"No Command" when trying to enter lollipop recovery

Hello, I've just recently flashed lollipop to my nexus 7 2012 WiFi and every time I try to enter recovery I get a "No Command" on my screen. Have i messed up something whilst flashing? I've tried flashing lollipop twice with no luck for getting into recovery. Any help much appreciated.
Does your tablet boot into Android? I tried the OTA update on modified stock android, and it failed locking me out, it would boot loop 3 times, then go to the 'No command' - you need to hold all three buttons, power and both the volumes when it's turned off, then it should boot into fastboot with recovery options. If you are stuck on 'no command' - if you hold power and volume up you'll get some options including reboot.
So from fastboot, I didn't do anything here because recovery didn't work for me, but if you are in fastboot, I connected it to my PC and opened nexus toolkit - I had no ADB access but fastboot was available, so I had to flash individual images using that software. So I downloaded the IMG files for android 5 for the nexus 2012 manually, its a tgz archive, extracted it and there was another tgz archive inside which had the individual files I needed to flash. Boot.IMG and system.IMG are the main ones.
I assume you have the drivers set up anyway on your PC, in nexus toolkit I went to Advanced and in the first column near the top I clicked Fastboot, then in the next column at the top, I clicked the permanent option, and below that in the middle column it lists all the android flashable files, boot, recovery, system, user data. These will match your files in the archive that was inside of the IMG archive you downloaded from google, boot.IMG, recovery.IMG, system.IMG, user data.IMG. I only needed to do flsash boot and system, recovery didn't work as it said it needed ADB access, and I didn't do user data as I don't think it was important and it wasn't necessary.
I naturally flashed boot.IMG first, then I had to flash the system.IMG twice as it didn't seem to do anything the first time. The second time it took 2-3 minutes then rebooted, and started booting into Android 5, the first boot will take 10 minutes.
This is probably a lot more than what you wanted to hear as I'm unsure of your problem, but I had to figure this out myself through using knowledge on flashing my old Sony Ericsson which was harder back then. I've only used the nexus toolkit once so it was still new to me. Anyway if this doest help you, I'm sure now its here other people will find it who need it

I'm having same problem. Have you had any success in repairing this issue? If so please let me know the fix. Thanks.
It's there you just have to hold power and up when you see no command.

Help help help with a hard bricked 6P

Hello guys,
I had my phone rooted with latest twrp. I flashed stock+ rom with Franco Kernel 25r and the A.R.I.S.E file for better sound. I've done the same set up minus the ARISE file and never had an issue.
well to my luck it kept bootlooping and I wasn't able to get back into my custom recovery. When I got home and got my hands on a pc I did a factory reset by manually flashing stock google img . I even used a couple tools since I ran out of ideas and still no luck.
I'm able to do anything through fastboot but I can't seem to get into my recovery at all.
Any ideas or tips of where I should go next?
Not a Hardbrick
As long as you can get to the bootloader mode, you haven't hard bricked your device. Hardbricking is a point where you cant boot your device and in to bootloader so there is no way to flash your device to a useable state.
Now as you can boot to the bootloader, just fastboot boot twrp.img and if you have a factory image zip, copy it in your device internal storage and flash it. Its that simple, provided you are already using an unencrypted boot.img in your current setup. Or else the next step is to flash an decrypted boot.img(you will loose all your userdata and internal storage data.). There are ways to mount the the encrypted filesystem if you are using a pin or password combo with your fingerprint. But without it its a bit more trickier so just for ease and if you dont have any inseparable data in your device now just flash a decrypted boot.img and then you can easily mount your internal storage to your pc and copy the factory image and the rest you already know..
At this point, I'd recommend a full reset.
Flash all the images in the latest Android M factory image (don't flash DP5 or similar N based ROMs): Recovery, Boot, System, Bootloader, Radio, everything.
Once you get stabilized and back into a working phone, then start rooting and messing around with kernels and what not.
To be completely honest, I've flashed nearly every ROM for the 6p, as well as my other Nexus devices, Galaxy phones, Sony phones, and no-name brands and none of those ultra modified kernels did any noticeable change. I tried the F2FS, NTFS, etc file system changes, tweaks to the governors and IO's, all of that, and found the stock kernel was the best. If a kernel with a different IO Scheduler worked even 10% better than the current implementation, and was just as stable, don't you think the Google/Android Engineers would've pushed that to live?
Currently running Pure Nexus July 23rd Update, everything stock that comes with it, Systemless Root/XPosed, and Viper4Android and have never had a performance or stability issue. I'd recommend you do the same.

First of all thank you for the response.
I've tried flashing the most current twrp and it seems to go through fine on fast boot but when I actually try to get into recovery from the device it will boot loop and just keep doing that.
How can I get into the phones storage through fastboot?
Where can I get the factory zip?
it feels as if everything seems to go good through fastboot but when I actually try to boot the phone nothing seems to work.

I've done the manual flashing already and flashed everything single item the most current factory image. Everything seemed to have gone through okay but when I rebooted the phone it was back to 0.
I'm actually considering getting rid of the phone now since it is my daily =/
Format each partition before flashing.
fastboot format <partition>
wait until it's done, then
fastboot flash <partition> <image>
Some partitions can't be formatted, which there are ways around, but try this first.
Just get to bootloader mode and try booting the twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
From the twrp ui, go to advanced wipe and format your storage.
To mount the internal storage on your PC, enable mtp from twrp screen.
If U are using a decrypted boot.img, it will easily mount ur internal storage. Or try flashing a decrypted boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then try the above again..

I flashed the twrp.img and it went through successfully at least on the computer it did but when the phone actually tries to get into recovery (twrp) it will start to boot loop and keep on doing that. I tried both an encrypted and decrypted boot img but it still made no difference.
I'm really going crazy over this

You need to explain more on what you actually tried here.
Just download the latest factory image and try to flash the latest bootloader using fastboot.
Then boot to the bootloader and try formating the device. Not wiping
Then you have to
fastboot boot twrp.img
I believe you have only tried wiping not formating. I faced similar issue before. But once I flashed a decrypted boot.img, it cleared the user data and then I was able to get to twrp.
Maybe your twrp img is corrupted if this didn't work.

download a factory image and run the flash all file...... it should reboot your phone after 5 minutes and the issue should be resolved.. a hard brick would be a device that does nothing.... in this case i believe that you just didnt do something right.
Then download the latest factory image and extract it
fastboot flash radio.img
fastboot flash bootloader.img
& do a fastboot update the rest archive file as it is
This will flash the rom via fastboot& U don't have to rely on TWRP or CWM

I was really really hoping this would help. I erase/formated everything before flashing anything. I then ran the flash-all file and it took a couple of minutes and it said finished on the command box and my phone restarted and went into the white google logo and rebooted again with a bootloop. I waited around 15 minutes hoping it would start but it didn't.
It honestly feels as if the phone is not processing the full commands but on the pc it seems to go through successfully
is there a way to force an install of a rom and see if maybe a dirty flash over the stock one will allow it to start up?

Just unzip the factory image and there U can see the flash shell script files too. Open them in a text editor & U could see the exact command. In a factory img, they also do the same thing via script files. Flashing the radio & bootloader & updating the rest archive
so this is what I've done
I've manually flashed every file needed for the factory image from google.
I also tried wugfresh tool kit which is great but didn't help me much. I flashed stock recovery and treid to boot into to and nothing. I flashed a customer recovery and nothing.
It always does the same thing
the screen that says my phone can't be checked for corruption and then the google sign comes up stays on for a couple seconds and then it bootloops to the can't be checked for corruption.
I try to get into recovery using fastboot commands and the phone does the same exact thing.
I was even able to lock and relock the bootloader and I was able to successfully flash everything at least that is what it showed on the computer
so ive read almost every thread that had to do with bricking and I feel like an expert now but im starting to think it is done =/

Hey there. First off make sure to unlock again your bootloader. Then you may follow post # 10 of @Heisenberg 's flashing guide for our device.
First images to flash would be bootloader and radio. First flash bootloader, then make sure to issue the command adb reboot-bootloader. Then afterwards once the phone has rebooted back to bootloader, flash radio, then again do the adb reboot-bootloader again.
Once the phone is again back to bootloader flash the rest of the images except userdata. For the boot.img and recovery.img, flash the stock ones-don't use the decrypted boot.img and don't flash the twrp.img yet. Once all necessary images have been flashed issue the reboot-booloater command one more time, then on the bootloader screen choose the reboot option. Wait anywhere from 3-10 minutes for the phone to load. Let us know how it goes for you.

fastboot flash bootloader C:\angler\images\bootloader-angler-angler-xx.xx.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio C:\angler\images\radio-angler-angler-xx.xx.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 vendor C:\angler\images\vendor.img
It does the same exact thing it will try and restart the phone, the message that says it can't be checked for corruption the google logo comes up and it repeats it self non stop.
This is what doesn't make sense to me.
This is the file that I had flashed through twrp when it was working fine

This is weird. What version of the stock factory images did you flash? I've been using leviticus 1.3 since it came out and when i was still on stock rom. I switched over to cm builds and have been flashing every nightly since the 7/24th build, and in the process repeatesly reflashing the aound mod along, and i've had zero issues with the phone booting afterwards.

OEM Locked, and Device is corrupted. Unfixable?

So long story short I recently decided to install stock kernel on my Nexus 6P. I flashed boot.img from oreo firmware using twrp. Accidentally I flashed it into system instead of boot. Now system is corrupted stuck on google logo. But USB debuging is enabled. so I tried to activate OEM using fastboot but it says unknown command. Later on I try to format, wipe all partitions, repair file system using twrp still no success.
Did I break my phone completely?

No, I don't think you completely broke your phone. I would try reflashing using fastboot. Or you could try an OTA update to return it to stock.
No. You just need to reflash stock system.img using stock flashing application for your fone and nothing else. Just do this in edl mode.
To get there, turn fone off completely while unplugged from pc. start your stock flashing application, and load your stock rom, once it verify's, you should be able to select system.img ONLY, dont flash any other img you see for now.
Hit start in this application, then plug fone into usb, watch what happens
Write back ?
Edit The No is to the OP, not to disagree with above post
