Like the title, there is no picture in recovery. I cant install anything if I cant see it. Anyone knows why this is? The monitor is detecting an input but the input is all black. The Q's red leds do light up.
Nexus Q Installed custom recovery but when I reboot into recovery there is no picture

And flash red ring red dot?
If you spin the dome fast enough you get Google colors. Nifty.
I had the same problem. Turns out some people have to boot it from recovery instead of installing and adb reboot recovery. I had to do this when I was installing cm.
I had the same issue when booting into recovery via adb. Now my Q goes straight into flash red dot/circle-spin-to-google mode when i plug in power. Seemed that I had bricked ... erh.. sphered the bastard, but left it to itself for some time, and eventually it booted up normally.
How can I get to recovery if not via adb? CM site says hold Volume Down and Power, but that seems... copy/pasted
fastboot boot recovery.imgI had the same issue when booting into recovery via adb. Now my Q goes straight into flash red dot/circle-spin-to-google mode when i plug in power.

that should work.
or maybe you didn't get a good recovery image. There are ones out there that don't have the squished screen issue that birds does.
edit: fastboot boot, not adb boot.

I think you are trying to ask which recoveries don't have the issue so, here you go.
I think this is the one i used.
