Nexus 6P bootloop - stuck on Google logo

  • Very sad-- my Nexus 6P froze and restarted, getting stuck at the Google logo. Bootloop happened about a week after OTA update to Android 7.0 Nougat. ::cries::
    Video recorded on my Nexus 5X, apparently now my daily driver. ::cries some more::
    Google says it's a hardware issue: www.androidauthority.com/nexus...
    XDA may have found the cause, they blame the A57 cores. They have a possible fix by disabling them, read more here: www.xda-developers.com/nexus-...
    NOTE: 6P might need a previously unlocked bootloader to flash any repair files to it. It might not be possible to unlock the bootloader from ADB. Caution-- apply any fixes at your own risk.
    There is a Rescue OTA available, but it's a very long shot:

      Have you tried this solution?
      My Nexus 6P bootloader is locked, and I can`t do anything:
      C:\Users\andre>fastboot flashing unlock
      ...
      FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)
      finished. total time: 0.008s
      C:\Users\andre> fastboot flash boot c:\adb\N2G48B_4Cores.img
      target reported max download size of 494927872 bytes
      sending 'boot' (12384 KB)...
      OKAY [ 0.323s]
      writing 'boot'...
      FAILED (remote: device is locked. Cannot flash images)
      finished. total time: 0.346s

      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      booblick i haven't tried this solution. when you enter the unlock command, are you in the fastboot menu on the 6P? it should give you options to apply the unlock, I think (I'm just guessing)

    • @Paul_MuadDib_Atreides
      @Paul_MuadDib_Atreides 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, i`m in fastboot mode (with those white writings and android)

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      booblick are you using the latest ADB version on your PC? you might need to find the latest version

    • @Paul_MuadDib_Atreides
      @Paul_MuadDib_Atreides 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think - yes, its the latest.

    I'm going to try reflowing the solder like I do with GPUs and see what happens. What do I have to lose ?

    most users have tried re-flashing factory images or wiping their data to no avail. Once you contact Google, the company will send you a refurbished unit. Though Google says the bootloop is strictly a hardware issue, it is curious that both Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X devices are suddenly affected by it after the most recent Nougat update.

    • @Lemonhead8890
      @Lemonhead8890 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jarel Antoine Contact LG, Google will direct you to them if it isn't a simple factory reset fix. I'm doing this with them right now.. have my RMA # just haven't sent it out but is doing exactly as this video describes. A 5x though.

    +Don Lew , I'm one of the Google Top Contributors on the Google Nexus/Pixel support forums. I just passed your video on to my Community Manager. Thank you for making this video, stories like yours are EXACTLY why volunteers like "Techno Bill" and I are pushing so hard to get this resolved. (Techno Bill was the Nexus Expert who was responsible for the push toward getting Google to allow full "Recovery OTA" images to save bootloader-locked devices.) Unfortunately in this case, you cannot even get to Recovery to apply that. Hopefully your video can be evidence why Google needs to allow block-level access to devices through the Bootloader for repair purposes -- basically, a low-level format tool like the Nvidia chipset devices have. (Even if your data is locked and hosed, at least then the device would be recoverable!)

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      thanks Nathan, I appreciate it. that's pretty much what I'd like to see. my Nexus 5 had a similar problem but I was still able to recover the hardware (lost the data) but in this Nexus 6P situation, I think my hardware was also good and didn't need to have been RMA if I could have reflashed it or something.

    • @trinied
      @trinied 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I am also looking for a solution to this problem. I was on 7.1.1 the latest ota build and took a burst picture of my wife. It was stuck in processing and then restarted. Once it restarted, it worked for a while and then I was sending a test and it went into the bootloop. If you figure anything out, please share a solution.

    • @ninehoursful
      @ninehoursful 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Any response from Google? What might be causing this issue? Is it Nougat related?

    • @alsenlea
      @alsenlea 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Nathan Thanks a lot for the reply. The same problem happened to me, but I was able to get into recovery and flash the rescue OTA zips, but strangely enough is that after the flash even if there was success message on the screen, the flash still failed and nothing changed, I even check the build info in recovery which stayed the same before and after flash. Is this normal? Any suggestions? My problem is that I bought it from Optus Australia and the bootloop happened only a few days right before the warranty expired and then I had to go back to China. It's the best phone I've ever used, especially likes the photos it took. Such a pity that all I have now is a brick with so much memories of Melbourne, VIC!

    This happend to my nexus 6p last night, how can I fix it? tried the recovery mode but won't work. I am from Nepal and brought it from a friend in US..don't know whom to contact to return it. also can't i get back all my data now??

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Shilu Shrestha sorry to hear. your best bet would be if you could give to your friend in the US to apply for warranty there. if you can't access the 6P on a PC it's unlikely to be able to recover your data

    @Don Lew This happened to me this morning :( I had google play music opened and when I tried to play some Justin Moore, it froze. Glad to know it's not his music's fault... lol
    I'm just barely under warranty (I bought it in January), so I'll be able to ship it to Huawei for them to look at. Were they able to resolve it for you (fix/replace it)? Most everything for me is backed up too so I'd be alright with either a factory reset or a new phone.
    EDIT: there are some scuffs on the sides from falls if that matters. :/

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      J.T. Schellenberg Google replaced mine fairly quickly. I think the scuffs on the side should be OK, not sure if they would consider that physical damage. hope you get yours sorted 👍

      Spent a bomb to get a Google Nexus 6P and today, feels let down. I spoke with Google(Go to your retailer if you have not bought from our store, god help you!) and went to Huawei(solution offere :-)))) there is a mother board issue, for which I have to pay the cost of the phone!) All of a sudden, hit by a bootloop issue.

  • @Tulabear
    @Tulabear 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had this same issue. I was able to reach out to Google support (since I bought the phone through Project Fi last year) and get a warranty replacement. They do put a hold on your credit card, but it's for a zero amount - UNLESS your phone is damaged. Mine is pretty clean w/ no damage since it's been in a case and had a tempered glass screen protector since day one.
    Bottom line - if you get your phone through the Google Fi project, you'll save yourself a ton of headaches.
    And a bit of an addendum - I have a Nexus 6p from Huawei, black, 128 gb. I had NOT put the latest patch on it, but it did have 7.0 installed. (NBD91K)

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      my guess is your one year warranty is with Huawei, the phone manufacturer. did you buy in the USA? if so, check out consumer.huawei.com/en/contact-us/index.htm good luck with your warranty👍

  • @jijoalex87
    @jijoalex87 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    hey .. mine was a simple update from marhsmallow to a 20mb update to prepare the phone for nougat.. now mines stuck in a loop and the phone wont charge anymore.. when the phones switched on it wont charge with a red blinking led light. when the phones switched off. it shows a charging symbol.. but it doesnt charge.. left it for hours with the orginial charger.

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      that sounds pretty bad. if you can't get into any service menu (power + vol. down) or you can't reset when plugged into a PC, I think you need to send it in for RMA.

    @socool31 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    thanks for the vid. I have same issue starting yesterday for my Nexus 5x. Let me know what they sent you and what version android is on it. i.e 6 or 7. Also did you try and use android sdk and pull files off it? I think that can be done?

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      yes, I've read many cases of it happening on people's Nexus 5X, makes me nervous. I was sent a replacement 6P, seems like it's new, and it came with 6.01 Marshmallow on it. then it immediately wanted to do the monthly security updates starting with June, about 3-4 updates in a row, then Android 7.0 update. I did try Android SDK but I still couldn't access anything on the phone when connected, I didn't have USB debugging on before it began bootlooping

    @EE-mg7vn 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Don, they did replace the battery with no luck. They told me when it boots up, it goes so far and it needs a little extra boost from the battery. It kinda simulates a low battery charge condition. I will talk to my sister who has an electronic background. I may just change the charger board.

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Samiul Huq Bhuiyan the Nexus 5X is a bit of a different issue. The bootloops for that phone are usually caused by improper solder on the motherboard. There are reports of temporary recovery by heating the phone in an oven--* strong caution is advised with this* but I think that if it's bootlooped, there's no real fix for it.

    This happened to me yesterday while I was checking my fantasy football updates. Sucks but glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this. I called Huawei and they were able to provide me with a new 6P. They just need verification (Proof of Purchase) that it is still under the 1 year manufacturer's warranty and you are good to go.

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      if you can't fully boot the 6P, your only other option would be to hook it up to a PC and try to access it using ADB. But you would need to have USB debugging enabled in the 6P beforehand. Maybe a local repair shop might be able to fix it. Unfortunately, sounds like your options are limited. Hope you can get it sorted.

      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      if you have USB debugging enabled, you might be able to retrieve data when connected to a PC using ADB console. if you don't have it enabled, you may be out of luck. if your warranty is with the Google store, they should send you a replacement while you send your broken 6P back.

  • @Safirfox
    @Safirfox 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi! I got the exact same problem! My 6P also froze when i was listening to music and then got stuck in a bootloop. You said you were going to send it back, but if you manage to solve the issue by yourself I would be happy to know how!

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      hey Simon. sorry to hear you got the same problem. for anyone with this issue there are 2 things that they need to have a chance to fix it: either an unlocked bootloader (OEM unlocking enabled in Developer settings) and/or USB debugging enabled. without at least USB debugging enabled, there may be no hope. BUT... if your bootloop at least starts the colours dots you MIGHT have hope of doing a factory reset if you can get into the Recovery menu. if all you can see is the Google logo and it loops I think it's pretty bad.
      I tried installing ADB on my PC and seeing if I had any remote flash options but I couldn't do much without first having USB debugging enabled.
      my theory is that Android 7.0 is causing a higher than usual number of these bootloops, though I can't prove it.

    • @HandheldAddict
      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      if it's under one year warranty, Google would replace it IF they find no physical damage, like from a drop. user caused damage is not covered under warranty and would be charged for service. good luck 👍

    Hi Don, I am having the same problem. Same story about the phone just rebooting all by it self. I took it into a shop for repair. They thought it was a battery problem, only because when the battery charge level gets below 10%, It will boot up like normal. My Phone has been used when the batter level is very low. Make calls, send and receive text, Log into email accounts ect. I am going to try to get the battery level high enough to do one more system update. Any more battery charge than 10% it goes back to Bootloop

  • @RanjeetDighe
    @RanjeetDighe 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    You can try highlighting the issue with #AndroidBricksNexus hashtag on twitter. Clearly this problem deserves a large scale recall of phones. Google is committed to give updates for Nexus 6p. Most people using stock Android on leave auto update feature on. That is how the updates are supposed to work normally.
    I was shocked to hear from Huawei today. Their contention is they have told users not to update to 7.1.1!!! So users are responsible for bootlooping or bricking their phones!!! Wow.
    I am never buying anything Google ever again and will spread this message to as many people as I can. If this is their response to a problem they created, people ought to show them what consumer action can do.
    Btw, there was not ONE email to users asking them to stop updating phones!!! This when they own every piece or data on our phones and are selling it piece by piece. And they sold Nexus 6p as a top of the line flagship!!!

    This phone is such CRAP. I bought it from Google (Project Fi) and I've had to replace it 3 times so far! And this bootloop crap happened since the OTA a week ago (security patch 7.1.1). I contacted Fi and they are sending me refurb AGAIN. I'm 3 seconds away from getting a completely different phone, sick of Google and their issues!

      BMarchesa it's weird that I had to fall back on my 5X when my 6P bootlooped but I've heard many cases of 5X bootlooping so I can't recommend it to anyone. The oneplus 3t camera is a step down from the 6P/5X, but it's not terrible. I personally haven't had any problems with wifi on my 3t, but I'm having lots of trouble with the fingerprint scanner

    • @Bella_Mar

      I read that the fingerprint scanner gets even worse with the newest update.

      with the 5X it's a real question. some speculate that the hardware is causing the bootloops. I'm typing this on my 5X which has been on Android 7.0 since the official release. I've had no problems with 7.0 on my 5X yet. if you can't stop bootloops through factory reset or accessing via PC, then it probably needs to be RMA, whether hardware or software fault.

      @HandheldAddict  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Kamil Multani RMA= return merchandise authorisation. so talk to where you bought it from to begin the warranty return process. hopefully you can deal with Google, but if you bought from elsewhere you might have to talk to LG. good luck👍

      +Kamil Multani I agree, I used to have a Nexus 5 and I had 2 years of rock solid performance from it that sold me on stock Android. but all phones have a "small number" of failures, it's unavoidable. I don't know if these are any less reliable than other phones.

    My 6P bootlooped last week. 2 months past warranty and bought through provider so was past on to Huawei who wants $311.00 to fix. I contacted google again and still moving up the google support chain so am hoping they will stand behind their product. I really loved the phone but won't buy another google or Huawei product if they leave me stranded!

      not sure if you know this but i got the phone from a canadian carrier. I just called huawei regarding a bump by the volume button and didn't tell them anything regarding the brick. Does it void warranty to unlock the bootloader/root the device. I try and google this but people are always giving different answers.

    • @HandheldAddict

    Happened to mine too! Google sabotage? Super pissed off. Weirdly right after 12 month warranty and right after 7.1.1 update. Coincidence? Super expensive phone that was still WAY in it's prime. I was looking forward to at least another year. Thinking about never buying a Google phone again.

      David Schwab I know how you feel, I was thinking the same, 1 year without dying is not enough, these phones should last at least 2 years. apparently Google is blaming it on hardware: www.androidauthority.com/nexus-6p-bootloop-issues-738275

      I agree. with every update there always a small number of devices that get bricked. but I think this update is causing a higher number of bootloops than usual. hopefully with increased RMAs, and people reporting why they need to RMA, Google will get that there's an issue here.

      Orlando Colom that really sucks. I've had my 5X for just about a full year. I've heard many more reports of bootloops on the 5X, but the reasons may be different. I've heard users on Reddit trying baking or putting the phone in the freezer for about 15 minutes to temporary be able to boot up. but it's something that's totally at your own risk. hope you can get yours replaced on warranty

    The Bower Button is Broken probably similar to my Nexus 5 Powerbutton. It some times remains constantly pushed even if it is not physically pushed ... It happens on my opinion from using it on the cold outside, it does not like the cold of winter. My Nexus 5 had this problems 5 mounts after the warranty... It sucks when the most important button in your phone is broken by winter and renders your entire device useless.

They just die, no physical damages at all. literally stuck on bootloop or some kind of software issue. I really wanted to love this phone so bad but I can't stand it anymore.
