I can't get my Nexus 7 back to normal.

I have a rooted Nexus 7 2013. One time I got the Android 5 update but when I told it to go ahead, it failed. I haven't seen the option again since then and don't want to sideload if I don't have to.

So I used the built-in Team Win to do a wipe and recovery which worked, but now when I boot, it comes up to a S.H.I.E.L.D screen that wants a pattern for me to log in. Of course I don't know the pattern and have never used a pattern to log in. So I tried the alternate login using my gmail account. It tells me Invalid Username or Password. However I check my login online with a computer and it is correct. It's the only username and password I've ever used on this tablet.

Anyone know this pattern? And why now do I see this, as I've never seen this SHIELD boot up screen before?

Not sure why it would be asking your for a pattern unlock. However, you can head into Recovery and factory reset.
