        @Lakotaubp That didn't fix it. Made the google pause for a few seconds longer. Maybe there is a Youtube vidio on tearing down a N5. i could replace the
        battery at the same time. Other than the power switch, would the problem be software related?

          @jjconstr Could be software - plug it in and type in terminal:

          sudo adb devices

          Twice, then:

          sudo fastboot devices

          Does it show any?

          If not, it's likely the power switch. Yes, there are many teardown and switch replacement videos online. Search Nexus 5 battery replacement, Nexus 5 power switch replacement

                  @jjconstr 99% power button by the way. It's very common 😉

                    @rocket2nfinity It loaded some packages, starting with "Android" And asks if I want to load 2500kb more. Do it?

                            @rocket2nfinity that link was quick and long too! Terminal unpacked, set up android, processed triggers. Terminal finished. I ran just the first command. N5 still plugged in and flashing google.

                              By the way, the device must be connected to the computer before typing

                              sudo adb devices

                              Just in case it wasn't clear...

                                @jjconstr and did it show a device with either adb (do the adb devices command twice) and fastboot devices?

                                  @rocket2nfinity said in Installing UT on N5 stuck in boot loop:

                                  sudo apt install fastboot

                                  Yes, the N5 was connected. and do I run the second command now? sudo apt install fastboot

                                        @rocket2nfinity Here are two lines showing the adb sequence. I didn't go far to find them. I only ran the first command once and not the second. this refers to the second pair of commands. The first pair I rand the first command twice and the second once.

                                              @jjconstr if no devices showed up after inputting adb devices it doesn't see it. If a device showed up, type:

                                              adb reboot recovery
