Step 3 – Please make sure Fastboot is configured and properly installed on your computer.
Step 4 – Turn OFF your phone.
Step 5 – Get into the Fastboot/Bootloader Mode on your phone. Turn ON the phone while pressing and holding the Volume Up + Volume Down + Power buttons till you see the Fastboot menu and START on top.
Step 6 – Now extract the downloaded file anywhere in your computer. Go to the folder hammerhead-NPD90G and then copy/paste all the files to your Fastboot directory.
Step 7 – From the factory image files in your Fastboot directory, do the following depending which OS you are on:
On Windows: Run the file “flash-all.bat”.
On Mac: Run the file “flash-all.sh” using Terminal.
On Linux: Run the file “flash-all.sh”.
Step 8 – That’s pretty much that you had to do for flashing the stock factory image on your Nexus 5X. Now wait and watch as the process is completed — or follow the on-screen instructions on your phone if in case you have to unlock the bootloader.
Step 9 – After the installation completes, the phone will boot now and it might take about 5 minutes to boot on your first time. So, please wait with patience!
That’s it! Your Nexus 5X should now have the official Android N NPD90G Developer Preview 5 software update installed on your phone using the stock factory image from Google! Go to Settings >About phone to verify.
