REALLY weird problem. Stuck in boot, but can recieve text msgs!?!?

[AC Question]

So, uninstalled Google Now 'updates'. And phone crapped out (Nexus 5). So restart and stuck in boot mode. Tried going to fastboot and clearing cache, no luck. So just circles. But I recieved multiple texts and confirmed it with a friend. It;s like the phone is loaded in the background, but I can't access it.

Also, when plugged in, no folders show except for 'hangouts'

Ideas!?!
