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

          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

                          @jjconstr same with fastboot. Which indicates it is your power switch that is bad

                                        Looked for devices, found none. Do I run sudo apt install fastboot or the command for use after no devices are found?

                                          @jjconstr if you tried

                                          adb devices and fastboot devices, the device is not getting far enough to be able to do the adb reboot recovery command. In that case, it is likely your power switch that is the problem

                                            @rocket2nfinity Ok, the power switch is on order. I check the videos and go that route when the switch arrives. I bought a hot air gun and a micro solder kit for such an occurrence, so will be good to go. Thanks for troubleshooting it. It was impressive.

                                              @jjconstr You're welcome. Ask away if you run into trouble when you do the switch install
