About your Boot Img errors!

Hi, I have heard a few of you have been getting error when Flashing a boot img recovery and fastboot.
Today I noticed the same thing to my device. I fixed it....
Here's how
1. Download This KDZ
Clockwork Recovery Rom.kdz
2. Download KDZ_UPD_En
From Here: KDZ_upd_fw_en
3. Extract the KDZ zip you downloaded and run KDZ_Updater.exe
4. In the dropdown menu's select 3GQPT and If your phone is running select DIAG
5. Open the clockwork recovery rom.kdz hit the open button and find it in your file directories.
6. Then Select Update now.
[TIPS] - If you are using a PC use the back ports of the PC
- If the update fails restart your PC and do steps 4 and 5 again.
- If your update doesn't finish and your phone doesn't work, keep trying again
Wait for it to finish
After it has finished.
1. Your phone may not boot if you came from a custom rom. Reboot into fastboot and type Command in CMD: (Make Sure you have fastboot and fastboot drivers installed) (My fastboot is in C:\Android
cd C:\Android
fastboot -w (wipe all data)
2. Download CWM recovery img from here
3. Rename the img to recovery.img that you just downloaded
4. Copy that to where your fastboot is setup. eg mine is in C:\android
5. Type commands: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
6. Then type Fastboot reboot
Now reflash you rom and you should have no errors

Have u got adb installed? if not go to android developers com and download it. Then change you directory to where u installed adb, example, put it in your c drive and type cd C:\android-sdk\sdk\tools >Enter>
then do the commands

[TUTORIAL] Applying an OTA update with stock + root/custom recovery

Preamble
As the title suggests, I had a Nexus 5 running stock Android 5.0, with root and TWRP, and wanted to update to Android 5.0.1 (without losing all my data, of course). I couldn't find any guides for my particular circumstances, so after working out how to do it myself, I thought I'd share my method.
Note: This guide is not for the uninitiated. Be prepared to Google something for yourself if you don't understand it.
Prerequisites
Before starting this guide, you should have:
A Nexus 5 that running stock Android. The presence of root/Xposed/custom recovery (maybe custom kernels?) shouldn't be relevant, but I can't vouch for the efficacy of this guide if you've done something obscure to your install.
Android SDK tools, specifically the ADB and fastboot binaries. Additional USB drivers may be required on Windows.
The factory image for the Android version you are currently running.
1. Uninstall root and other /system modifications
If you have rooted your Android, and/or installed BusyBox, Xposed or other modifications to /system, you will need to uninstall these modifications. Failing to do so will cause the OTA to complain that there's something funky going on in your /system partition.
You may be able to manually uninstall each of these modifications, but this was not enough for my install – doing a ‘Full unroot’ in SuperSU still left behind files in /system. The easiest way to uninstall all /system modifications is to reflash the /system partition.
Extract the Nexus 5 factory image (e.g. hammerhead-lrx21o-factory-01315e08.tgz), yielding a directory with files such as flash-all.bat and image-hammerhead-XXXXXX.zip. Do not use the flash-all script, as this will unnecessarily wipe all data on the device.
Extract the image-hammerhead-XXXXXX.zip file, specifically the system.img file.
Open a command prompt/terminal window.
Connect the phone to the computer with a USB cable.
Boot the phone into the bootloader.
Method 1: Power down the phone, then hold VolUp + VolDn + Power until the phone boots into the bootloader.
Method 2: From the terminal, run adb reboot bootloader while the phone is still powered on.
From the terminal, run fastboot flash system /path/to/system.img.
2. Uninstall any custom recovery
Custom recoveries don't seem to support OTA updates, making it necessary to uninstall the custom recovery by reflashing the stock recovery.
Extract the recovery.img file from the factory image, as in Part 1.
Open a command prompt/terminal window, connect the phone to the computer, and boot into the bootloader, as in Part 1.
From the terminal, run fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img.
Optional: Reflash boot.img and/or cache.img
Some users have reported that reflashing system.img was not sufficient, and that reflashing boot.img and/or cache.img was also necessary. I did not have this problem, but if you do:
Extract the boot.img and/or cache.img files from the factory image, as in Part 1.
Open a command prompt/terminal window, connect the phone to the computer, and boot into the bootloader, as in Part 1.
From the terminal, run fastboot flash boot /path/to/boot.img.
From the terminal, run fastboot flash cache /path/to/cache.img.
3. Apply the OTA update
The simple part. In the bootloader, use the VolUp/VolDn buttons to select ‘Start’, then press the Power button, to reboot into Android. Follow the system update instructions to install the OTA update.
4. Reflash the custom recovery and re-root
Also self-explanatory.

Hey,
I just wanted to say thanks. This totally fixed the problem I was having. I also want to add that after I flashed the system.img, I was getting errors related to "EMMC:/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot" with a bunch of numbers after. I googled it and found I had to also flash boot.img, and after that, the OTA worked fine. I would assume if anyone else gets errors like this, they should flash whatever img it shows in the error (ie: mine said /by-name/boot so I flashed boot.img).
-BGM

It worked for me

I've always been using a toolkit for my rooting purposes, I have done Full Unroot on SuperSU, but still getting an error when trying to update to 5.0.1
Will flashing stock wipe everything(whatsapp image, camera's,messages, etc etc)on my phone?

I also had problems using ‘Full Unroot’ in SuperSU. It's not actually as ‘full’ as it sounds.
Flashing a full factory image would normally wipe everything, but carefully following this guide will only reset the /system partition, not any user data.

I'd like to say thank you very much! I was looking for this kind of tutorial... I encountered an error while following all the steps because I forgot I had a custom kernel. So I wanted to add that if you have a custom kernel remember to do the same steps as described above for the kernel (return to stock) and then follow the system and recovery steps afterwards.
If you don't like running commands in terminal you can use Nexus Root Toolkit, on advanced, you have all the commands you need available.
Thank you very much RunasSudo

I have my ADB and Fastboot ok as confirmed by nexus root toolkit, but I am not sure on how to use terminal.. I launched command prompt but it doest recognise all the commands..
Tried Flash Stock + Unroot on Nexus Root Toolkit but the software will crash (fastboot.exe has stopped responding)
I am really clueless on what to do next..

Flash Stock + Unroot wipes everything and defeats the purpose of the tutorial made by RunasSudo
First and foremost you should download Android SDK (Tools only) on http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and then ask to install the extra: Google USB Driver.
With Nexus Root Toolkit you don't need terminal, click on advanced and you should see options to flash through fastboot the system only, recovery and kernel. It is pretty straighforward and it asks where the .img are in your computer

Thanks! This guide worked.
For Ubuntu users, you need to install adb and fastboot with these commands :
sudo add-apt-repository ppahablet-team/tools && sudo apt-get update (optional)
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

Thanks for the great step by step.
As with some of the other posters, re-flashing system.img was not enough for me, I had to also re-flash the boot.img. Once that was done, I had no problems side loading the update and am now running LRX22C.
I only seem to fiddle with adb once a year - when it OTA time comes - and can never seem to remember some of the steps that need to be taken. Reading through some of the other threads, I have a feeling a lot of people who rooted/custom recovery and cant do the OTA are going to be doing complete image re-flashes when this guide makes that completely unecessary.
thanks again,

Thanks for the feedback! I've added a note about boot.img to the OP.

+1 for flashing boot.img worked perfect after I did that.

I tried with this tutorial. I flashed system and recovery and then restart. Confirm OTA but I get ERROR.
Then I flashed boot as it was described. Now I don't get OTA In About phone, I'm still on 5.0.0, Check for updates now don't find update
Any idea?
UPDATE - UPDATE: After hour now it is here ... super, it works.

This walkthrough was most helpful! Ended up replacing the boot.img as well since I had ElementalX installed. My apps are optimizing as we speak. Thank you!

Worked for me. What a hassle!
Here is a summary of the process for those looking for a less wordy procedure, with a few added steps:
Download Nexus 5 5.0 (LRX21O) file (note: NOT 5.0.1 yet) https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Unzip via 7-zip multiple times in order to get boot.img, recovery.img, system.img
Enable USB debugging: http://www.kingoapp.com/root-tutorials/how-to-enable-usb-debugging-mode-on-android-5-lollipop.htm
Plug phone into PC > cmd prompt where adb is installed > type "adb devices" to ensure connection is valid (will need to authorize via popup on phone > then "adb devices" should return your device id and "device"; if it says "unauthorized" then look for the popup on your phone)
adb reboot bootloader
Put system.img, recovery.img, and boot.img in same folder as fastboot.exe
Run commands:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache (this is optional. I didn't have to do it, but you might)
Use Volume Up/Down to select Start > press Power Button to reboot
Update via Settings > About Phone > System Update
Re-flash TWRP recovery:

Loading problem
I flashed system, recovery & boot images strictly following the instructions, restarted the phone. It got stuck in loading where balls in four colors keep running for half an hour. Shall I keep waiting? I think there must be something wrong. Your advises are welcome.

Try flash the partitions again. If it's still not working, you may need to reflash a factory image.

Loading Stock Recovery on XT1095

All,
I need some help. I received the OTA from Motorola but can't load it yet because I'm rooted and using TWRP recovery. I did the following steps so I could download the OTA but am not able to get the stock recovery to load. Here are my steps:
1) Downloaded factory image file TMO_LXE22.46-11_22.21.11.victara_tmo.tmo.en.US.tgz
2) Verified I'm on the same system and build version. On my phone I see Build # LXE22.46-11 and System Version 22.21.11.victara_tmo.tmo.en.US
3) I opened Super SU and did an unroot which removed the app and I assume removed the root
4) Next I booted into fastboot mode and opened a command line on my windows PC
5) I placed the recovery.img file from the downloaded image into the folder
6) I opened a command line and typed "fastboot recovery recovery.img
7) It looks like the file loads correctly, yet when I try to reboot into recovery, I'm getting the android icon with the exclamation point and message command not recognized
Does anyone have any tips on what I may be doing incorrectly?
Thanks,
Rick

You are correct.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk

Yes, sorry that was a typo. I ended up having to load a fresh copy of 5.0 and then the update.

My steps were correct and the issue was not recovery related.

FYI, that's what the stock recovery is supposed to do when you try to boot to it.

My nexus will not flash correctly

Hello guys, ive been generally lucky in the sense that i have had no issues...until now.
I have tried installing the most recent updates (7.0, and now 7.1.1) and i continue to get this error through cmd. It does not seem to want to flash anything, and i have gotten it to flash, root, and twrp, but it still acted funky. Today, trying to remedy the situation, i attempted to flash the new 7.1.1 update, and return to stock (to later return to power user) but it is still doing it.
It says Bootloader: has-slot (not found), and a couple other things. When i try to flash individual pieces, it does not retain it. when i try to flash the flashall.bat, it flashes but does not flash everything, it will say the stuff has transferred 0 and skips it as it looks like. I cannot get my bootloader off the october one, and i have looked everywhere i can to try to fix this.. please help, its driving me mad. I will be happy to provide any information needed.
Thanks Community! You rock!

Have you tried a different USB cable? A different computer? How about a different USB AND a different computer? I think this would be a good place to start.

Can i ask you why this would matter? My usb seems to work fine, and my computer had no issues before this... i can still perform different actions, and my phone is showing up as ADB and Fastboot.

If it's not pc or usb cable related you can try to flash latest factory image step by step via fastboot without your simcard

Well, you might want to post the complete output of your flashing attempt, but if the bootloader slot isn't found, that's usually a sign of a hardware problem. Hopefully I'm wrong, but until we see more from you, I simply don't have an answer for you.

Ive tried to fastboot everything individually, and it refuses to take. I tried the flashall, same thing. I used NRT and it partially worked, but has sorta the same error. I will be flashing again and providing screenshots right now. I was able to get into a rom, root, twrp but i still cannot update all of those core things (bootloader, radio, and such) Thank you guys for the help. Much needed.

Here is the attempt to just flash the bootloader, i have tried from a different location but this is directly in Platform-Tools of the SDK. As you can also see, it does register under fastboot...

I just tried what you suggest, and im not sure if it worked. It said everything wrote (on twrp) but it was very quickly done. I feel it did the same thing as CMD did.

You could try using the correct Fastboot command...
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
The command is fastboot flash <partition> <image>
Your screenshot says only "fastboot flash image" but doesn't state the partition you're trying to load, hence "unknown partition".
And since we're on the subject, perhaps a repetition of the procedure I used to use before the full OTA days might be useful to you and other people.
Preparation.
- Take a TWRP backup and save it on your PC.
- Download factory image (https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu) and unzip all files, including the zip within the zip. Rename the *.img files to the names below. Copy all of them to the same folder as your ADB/fastboot executables.
- Download the relevant TWRP and rename to twrp.img - also put in ADB/fastboot folder.
- Copy SuperSU to device (if root wanted).
- Set USB debugging in Developer options & attach to your PC.
- Open a CMD window, navigate to your ADB folder, and check connectivity with "adb devices". If it's ok, copy & paste each command below into the CMD window and run them - the only lengthy one is the system.img.
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

Can you give a bit more detail? So the phone is crashing, but is it now on the version that you wanted to have (7.0, 7.1.1)? There is rarely such a thing as "too much information".

Ok, so what happens is that it says i am on 7.1.1 with i guess the related info, but it does not load in properly as you can see with the screenshots. I start up the initial setup, and i can get through most of it fine, but some areas *permissions* are all blotchy. like i can toggle them on to submit data but i cant see what it is exactly im agreeing to. Then i start the phone, Google App automatically crashes, along side system ui. When i updated them, it seemed to fix the problem. But the issue is, i am not receiving phone calls and texts until possibly days later, and when i send texts it says "sending" and proceeds to spam the hell outta whoever its going to (sends literally 30+ texts). When i call someone, my phones Do Not Disturb mode gets enabled, and then nicely cuts out my audio. I can turn this feature off when im in the call, but sometimes it will then glitch the phone app, and i cannot essentially "hangup". My phone also now dies at 9%, where it had not previously (when i was on other rom / older stock) This all started after i updated to the october patch, and i noticed in december that i didnt have the december patch / update. I went to install it, and the same exact thing occurred. Ive attempted a rescue ota, and a sideload ota, and now this stuff as well, but i fear the worst for my phone. Let me know if i need to add anything else

Strephon may be right in suggesting a hardware fault, but equally it may just be that your phone is now somehow corrupted. My only suggestion is that you nuke it - factory reset, TWRP, wipe everything again in TWRP, and then try installing from fresh using the 7.1.1 full (not OTA) image and the instructions I posted earlier. If it still doesn't work I'm out of ideas, but there are people with far greater experience here than I have, so don't give up. It's too nice a device to just write off.

That's a new feature of 7.1.1. So you won't have to listen to notifications while on the phone. It's disabled as soon as the phone call is over.

I hope I'm wrong.

Is my phone has brick?

My smartphone was running on Android 9 pie. I am saying "was running" beacuse i am in a trouble now... I flashed a custom recovery(TWRP) and I installed a custom rom (LingeaOS) without wipping storage... from that time TWRP shows that "No os installed" .. It restart again and again but without starting android..Whenever I tried to restore my backuped stock rom It shows an error message"Failed to mount /system".. then I flashed another custom recovery(CWM).. And now it restart again and again I've tried to rebboot it in custom recovery mood but I 've failed... Is my Smartphone is bricked?? Is there any way to solve this problem??

This is how to fix it

Yes, this is called a soft brick.
You can solve the problem by doing the following:
-Your bootloader should be unlocked, and I think you've already unlocked it since you were trying to flash a custom ROM.
-You need to have a STOCK ROM of your exact phone model, this is different from TWRP backup, search google for your phone model's stock rom and download.
-You should have Fastboot and ADB installed on your pc.
-boot to fastboot mode (volume up+power, then navigate to fastboot mode).
-connect your phone to pc with USB cable
-open the folder where you have downloaded the minimal adb and fastboot, and open cmd window there with right lick or click cmd-here.exe
-now type fastboot devices, and there should be an alphanumeric code. This means your device is connected. If it is not showing up, try downloading 'minimal adb and fastboot tool' and clicking cmd-here.exe.
-In the stock rom file, there will be a file called 'firmware', and inside it there should be these files: 'system.img' 'recovery.img' 'cache.img' 'userdata.img' 'boot.img'
-Copy all 5 of these, then go to the folder where you have adb and fastboot, go inside that folder( to the place where you have all the adb and fastboot files like adbWinApi.dll). Now paste the 5 files here.
-open cmd window again, and type the following:
1) fastboot erase boot
2) fastboot flash boot boot.img
3)fastboot erase system
4)fastboot flash system system.img
5)fastboot erase recovery
6)fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
7)fastboot erase cache
8)fastboot flash cache cache.img
9)fastboot erase userdata (this may be called data, if fastboot shows an error message, type data instead)
10)fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
and you are done, this should enable you to restore your phone.
If you are unable to access your bootloader, try flashing your stock ROM with SP Flash tool (if you have a mediatek device). You have to have your stock ROM downloaded on your pc. Connect phone to pc via usb, open SP Flash tool, select your firmware file in the topmost box, and in the box beneath that, select the file ending in scatter.txt from your firmware file. Uncheck 'preloader' if it shows up on your screen, then click 'download'. Do not disconnect your phone during the process. When it is finished, there will be a green tick, and you should be able to restart your device.
