[AC Question]

So im all new to android only reason i bougth one is to use Nethunter.

Im having a big problem tho when running recovery mode i get the no command android with a ! on his belly. i keep getting this even tho the phone is factory wiped. hence i cannot root it because recovery mode is needed to root. any suggestions please because im about to go berserk on my phone. it´s a LG nexus 5X.

Please note that the phone is factory wiped and i still get the same error when trying recovery mode.

I don't think you can root with the stock recovery. You would have to install a custom one in order to root the device.
