Bricked nexus 5 , adb doesnt recognize device, tried windows and peppermint.
-
yea I would like to do that but since I cant get adb to work how will i do that? cant transfer files or do command at all? tried the universal drivers , tried the LG drivers and installing googles from android studio
-
@Churchthecat please follow the install instructions that you can find in that link I posted above.
You don't need
adb
to put your phone in bootloader, you just need to usefastboot
. -
@advocatux thanks but!
fastboot just waiting for device...
-
@Churchthecat I don't know about Windows but the usual advice I see in the Install group is to get rid of all the conflicting USB drivers and use the '15 seconds method' (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979).
-
@advocatux still no luck, same error.
-
hold on, no error with the 5th cable I tried....
-
@Churchthecat I was going to suggest: "try another USB cable while waiting for someone who knows more about Windows than me"
-
Hehe thanks flashed factory image got bootloop, got twrp loaded at least. so it will work soon. Thanks again
-
@Churchthecat you're welcome!

Cables, cables, cables. We should make a troubleshooting sticky
