I flashed a Nexus 5x after verifying the GPG signature.

I tried these firmware versions:

  • NBD91P.2016.11.21.18.36.19
  • NBD91P.2016.11.16.11.42.49
  • NBD91P.2016.11.10.09.53.38

I get the yellow warning that the OS has changed with the fingerprint 0AA1-7043-4D5F.

I then get the "erasing" screen followed by the yellow warning again.

I then get the red warning that the device is corrupt. I think this is an error! ⚠️
After that it hangs at the Google logo (i waited several minutes). How long should it realistically take at this point?

I have the 16GB version of the Nexus 5x.

It's not an error. It's legitimately corrupt. You didn't flash the system and/or vendor images successfully.

I think you are right. It appears my adb is too old. Thanks.

https://copperhead.co/android/docs/install#prerequisites warns about this. Only use it from the SDK unless you use Arch, in which case android-tools is up-to-date enough (Android 7.0.0_r1).

(the problem is really fastboot but adb/fastboot almost always get shipped together as a unit)

OK, for reference, here's what I did on Ubuntu 14.04:

# sudo apt-get purge  android-tools-adb     android-tools-fastboot

Download Android SDK command line tools from https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#downloads (current filename: android-sdk_r24.4.1-linux.tgz)

Unpack the tarball

Download and update the tools:

cd android-sdk-linux; tools/android update sdk --no-ui -t "platform-tool,tool"

Copy them somewhere in the path

$ sudo cp platform-tools/{adb,fastboot} /usr/local/bin

After that I had up-to-date tools and flashing Copperhead worked. 👍

$ fastboot --version
fastboot version 302830efc153-android
$ adb version
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.36
Revision 302830efc153-android

Please be more specific than "no success".
Take a close look at the output of the flashing process. You may be overlooking an error message (I did).
