This worked with the "flashing one by one" method for me! And I didn't have to unroot cuz that's only for sideloading ota's. Glad you had the "fix missing file" vid in your channel, I used that vid when this vid reached the "flash-all.bat" file. Then the other vid showed me the manual method and I chose to omit the flashing of cache and userdata img files to retain my data! I flashed Nexus 6 to lollipop 5.0.1 without wiping data, and re-rooted using NexusRootToolkit 1.9.9 - and it worked flawlessly! My 1st flash ever, and no data loss, and you helped out! Thanks again, rock on!

You have a nice radio voice. I setup a new headset with nfb 11 but that just made you sound even better. I wish I had your voice. But even more your video is one of the most easy, professional, thus easy, video I have ever seen. You covered every little bit a person would have to know and even the And I found the lollipop image and now this bricked nexus is now booting. I thought my phone was lost or some $125 an hour guy would 'fix it'. I had it bricked and managed to get it to the fast loader screen so I could skip right to that part. The image worked perfectly for my nexus 5 and its on again!! Don't even care about the date right now. I got my phone back. Thanks!

[riujin]

Excellent! Very nice and detailed steps, thanks for the video!

Hi Jamie, I just wanted to tell you that your video has helped me salvage my old Nexus 7. It's been stuck in boot loop hell for months now and your video was clear, informative, and super helpful. Thank you so much for your help and your awesome video!!

For those who already have an unlocked boot loader, you need not wipe your device again and lose data with the flash-all script. The flash-all.bat (flash-all.sh in Linux) has a line as
Fastboot -w update

The "-w" parameter to the fastboot command wipes data... If you don't want that you can remove it and run the script... That way it's as good as OTA minus the waiting part... 😁

WOW! First time ever flashing a phone, first time posting a comment on youtube....
Tutorials on point! Thanks man was really getting impatient with checking for OTA updates, you the man!

[brahajan]

everything worked well now except one thing : my computer shuts down when im in the flashall step. Is my computer the problem?

[alpitshah]

You by far have the best tutorial video on this topic on Youtube.  I bricked my Nexus 10 and could not find any instructions online to help me flash the factory image back on.  I am glad I came across your video.  Keep up the great work.

thanks for watching?... no, thanks to you i could install android 5.1

My Nexus 7 (2012) didn't work after it was updated to 5.0.2 (Google Play Services didn't work so the whole tablet was useless). Google couldn't help and try to fob it off as a hardware problem. It also wouldn't update when the update to 5.1 came through (just kept resetting). Anyway, as a complete novice to this sort of stuff, I followed your guide and, with a few things to download, it worked. I now have my tablet back - thank you so much :-)

Does relocking the boot loader erase all data? Sorry to be asking so many questions ahha

[JustLikeJack]

Was terrified that I would brick my device but watched this video right through a couple of times then went for it. Worked perfectly and my Nexus 6 did everything that Jamie said it would :-)

It was great that parts of the video (particularly the "unauthorised" bit when doing the adb devices command) fully represent what really happens as it puts your mind at ease that you're doing it the same way.

Great work Jamie and thanks :-)

[aaronyoungberg]

Perfect explanation. I've been looking for weeks on videos on how to get back to stock and this is the first one that has worked. Thank you so much!

[akheebsharieff]

got marshmallow down on my nexus 5 using your video here! almost a year later and this video still helps! who knew?! thanx for the upload, cheers !

[Jic-s]

Thank you Jamie,

I just flashed my Nexus 4 with the factory image with the help of your tutorial.

All the best.

[lloydbraun]

oh man wish I noticed the system.img comment, could have saved me some time googling around. Anyway great video, the fact you even went back and mentioned that is great. Keep up the good work.

[thejam]

After 4 hours of unsuccessful flashing, i finally found this video and fixed my bricked Nexus 7. Thank you!!!

[rarufu]

thank you for the very detailed instructions. was able to get everything done (installing SDK, driver and especially flashing my nexus 5 to lollipop) while watching your videos. cheers!

[stephenralph]

Just wanted to add to what others have said below. This tutorial makes the process look so straight forward. My nexus 9 is playing up so I think I'll need to flash a factory image. I know I can easily do that now. As we say in the UK.... Cheers!
