Nexus 5 stuck in bootloop after Lollipop manual installation

I installed 5.0 Lollipop with a factory image and now it is stuck on the 4-color ball boot screen. I have tried holding the power button down for 10 seconds, but all it does is turn off then go back to the 4 color balls. I am extremely worried my phone is bricked. Can anyone help?

That happened to me because I was flashing my files manually and I forgot to flash the last two files so it was stuck at the 4-color ball boot screen for like 30minutes until I reflashed all the files all over again.

Turn the phone off. Start it into download mode. Flash the files (all of them) again.
