Nexus 7 Stuck on Google Logo - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good day everyone,
My friend was updating her Nexus 7 and suddenly the connection went off and the update was stopped. When she booted her Nexus 7, it is stuck on the Google Logo and stays there.
If I press the Volume Down, I can get the Recovery, Bootloader or Shutdown. I tried the Recovery mode but still stuck there.
What to do? Is there anyone that can give me the right steps to get back the Nexus 7?
Thank you a lot.

Flash the stock boot.img using ADB
type “fastboot reboot-bootloader”
type “fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-grouper-3.34.img”
type “fastboot reboot-bootloader”
type “fastboot flash boot boot.img”
Hope this helps

sorry for my ignorance but how to flash the stock boot.img using ADB ?
Sorry again and thank you for your help

Like I just told you, their the actual commands mate.
Open CMD by using Run -> CMD -> (NAVIGATE TO YOUR FOLDER)
E.g. cd c://mydocuments/adb/
Im guessing you have ADB installed, as you've already rooted and flashed.
When in the ADB directory, use
adb devices
With your tablet plugged in and USB Debugging enabled!!!
If this lists your device, then you're all good to go with flashing the boot.img
Hope this helps.
If you get stuck, google Flashing Boot.img with ADB on Android
Or something

[SOLVED] [Q] fastboot issue

Hi all,
I am currently playing around a bit with my KF and used in the beginning KFU to root with Burrito3. TWRP is functioning + CM9 already installed. BUT now, where I want to use Ravens Kernel with SDK and entering the commands he proposed for the beginning for fastboot, my KF reboots and stops in yellow triangel.
used command:
adb shell
su
idme bootmode 4002
reboot
How to go back to normal boot mode is o.k. and working, but I could no where find what to do/the reason might be, that my KF stops in triangle and how to sort it out. Drivers manually installed with SDK incl. adaption of ini and inf.
Any suggestion?
Thanks and regards

adb commands don't work in fastboot - only fastboot commands
that is what I tried, because I checked if the device is in fastboot and yes it is shown, but if I follow the next command:
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot bootnew.img or
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot cm9bootnew.img
which I placed on the internal sdcard, I get the feedback of the system:
cannot load 'xxxxbootnew.img'
any help with that?

I meant fast boot commands, my bad.
as far as i know these commands are to load a image from your computer
would try to do the img files in the same folder as fastboot.exe and retry
thanks very much for your help, after putting the img files into the folder where the fastboot.exe is, all went well.
very cool and now I learned a bit more regarding ADB stuff
glad to help ...

Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and may not work properly. help!

Long story short, hopped over to android following years and years of using IOS.
Bought a nexus 6p, learnt about root, gained root access to the 6p, and began installed root apps.
This morning, i installed Gsam battery monitor root companion, found out it broke the normal Gsam battery monitor app, tried to uninstall the gsam root companion several times. Everytime i uninstalled it and rebooted, it would just reappear on the phone and wouldn't actually uninstall properly at all.
On the third go, it rebooted into the red triangle " Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and may not work properly." and is stuck on the google logo.
Accessed recovery and tried to restore the nandroid backup, no luck, still boots up to red triangle and is stuck on google logo.
Accessed recovery and tried to restore to factory default, no luck, still boots up to red triangle and is stuck on google logo.
How do i fix my phone now? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
red triangle with the android mascot logo?
if so, put it into fastboot and reinstall recovery and see if that worked

Its just a red triangle with an exclamation mark inside.
I can't post an image because i am a new member and need at least 10 posts.

The red logo does disappear and the device transitions to the black and white google boot logo.
It is here where the device becomes hung, i assume it is because the boot.img or boot files have been damaged, but i'm just guessing. What i am confused about is if the boot files are damaged, the nandroid restore should fix this problem (shouldn't it?), but it doesn't.

After a root went bad I had the same thing happen. I just used SkipSoft ToolKit and restored back to a stock image (MDB08L).
The corruption message disappeared.
Take a look at this guide By Heisenberg as it will help with some details.
The few times I flashed/reset the phone, I accidentally muddled up some steps. Specifically the flashing the boot and bootloader images.
Code:
[U]fastboot flash bootloader X:/bootloader.img[/U]
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot flash radio X:/radio.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
[U]fastboot flash boot X:/boot.img[/U]
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash cache X:/cache.img
fastboot flash recovery X:/recovery.img
fastboot flash system X:/system.img
fastboot flash vendor X:/vendor.img
I would accidentally flash the bootloader.img image over the boot.img and cause the error, specifically the one you mentioned. I had to go through the flashing process VERY carefully again, and when flashing .imgs for root acess over to the stock ones.
I know is sounds trivial and I'm not saying you don't understand it, but give it a try and see if this resolves the issue. double check your lines and triple check your images (make sure there are NO spaces in the bootloader/boot img file directories. or_replace_spaces_with_underscores). I don't know how many times I have screwed up and it was because of a dash in the wrong spot or space in the .img directory. Let us know how you go.
Awesome!
Thank you very much everyone. I will try once i get home from work.

Just go to my guide and follow the instructions in section 9. You'll need to look at the prerequisites section at the beginning of the OP first so you can install the latest version of adb/fastboot via the SDK.

fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio C:\angler\images\radio-angler-angler-xx.xx.img

fastboot flash cache C:\angler\images\cache.img
fastboot flash recovery C:\angler\images\recovery.img
fastboot flash system C:\angler\images\system.img
fastboot flash vendor C:\angler\images\vendor.img
So i flashed all of the above minus the user data and re-locking the bootloader.

Thanks bud. I'm lost still. I have all the files needed in a folder I called " images" on my desktop. Do I have to write these commands you posted word for word? I mean I know I have to replace with my file name but for example I have the MDB08L so do I do : fastboot flash bootloader C:\angler\images\bootloader-angler-angler-02.01.img ( in my case) even though the folder is on my desktop?
Edit: I tried and it gave me an error saying it cant load it. So frustrating

You got an error because you're pointing fastboot to a location where the file doesn't exist. If you had followed my guide and placed the files in C:\angler\images\ then the command would be correct, but you've placed the files in a different location, therefore you need to type the commands so that they include the path to where the files are actually located on your PC.
There's an easy way to do it, type the first portion of the command, for example "fastboot flash bootloader " (make sure there's a space after the last character), then you can grab the appropriate file with your mouse and drag/drop it into the command terminal window and the file path will be completed automatically for you, then just hit enter to execute the command.

One last question, whats the best method to root MDB08L? I want that chroma rom

Need Blu Vivo Air LTE Stock ROM!

Anyone know where I can get a stock rom for my Vivo Air LTE?
I have a system.IMG and boot.img
I have a system.IMG and a boot.img if you still need it?
i need it. I accidentally deleted a system/lib file. thought i put it there. I did not... how would I go about installing? I'll google the steps in the mean time.

After downloading system.img to your computer you need to put the vivo air LTE in fastboot mode by turning it completely off. Then hold down power+volume up. Then choose reboot to bootloader connect the phone to your computer. Make sure you have adb and fastboot installed via Android SDK where adb resides such as the platform-tools directory put system.img in that folder and in that folder open it. Right click any white space while holding down shift on your keyboard and click open command from here. Then you can enter fastboot commands. fastboot devices make sure your device is detected then fastboot -w then fastboot format system then fastboot flash system system.img is your recovery still stock? here are three files system.img if your recover is messed too then i include recovery as well im not too sure if you need the boot.img but i included it in this link:

Downloading now. Can't wait to try!!! Thank you so much. That little phone is surprisingly amazing
here's the kicker though... i tried to 'restart to bootloader', i get stuck on blu splash screen. after getting rid of that one file, it's stayed stuck at blu screen. ever encountered this?
Blu vivo screen
When you are in recovery and reboot into bootloader that's where the Blu vivo air sign is stuck but you can execute fastboot commands
So, I got it to work. I had to terminal fastboot command, then reboot to bootloader, and it finally stuck. You are a life saver.
Was much easier to do in Linux than it was in Windows.
I put it in root with "sudo -s" command then "fastboot install system system.img" do I need to leave the bootloader unlocked??

OK I had to root this vivo air LTE via king root to backup system image so if you want full stock you need to root your phone again with king root and then install super Sume from play store to remove KingRoot and have it replaced with SuperSU. Then you can fully unroot with SuperSU!!! I tried playing Pokemon go and it wouldn't let me because it thought my phone was rooted so that's one way to fix that!
Ohhhhhhh I was wondering how you got the image files ? I haven't had any issues with it so far. It's back to its wonderful goodness. By the way, how do you quote someone on here?? I see everyone doing it, but I don't know how

Not too sure

May Factory Image now available MXC89F

For those in custom recovery land just flash the system and vendor img to upgrade

Well it should be great IF our TWRP could mount vendor / system correctly
Only boot / recovery partitions are selectable for .img files :/

The value of this posting would increase exponentially if you took it upon yourself to share what and how you flashed the files with ADB.
Sorry for my ignorance
Extract the ryu-m5c14j-factory-b714e9bd.tgz with i.e. 7-zip. In image-ryu-m5c14j.zip you find both files system.img and vendor.img.
So... I´ll hope you have some practices using ADB / fastboot. Put both files in your ADB / fastboot folder. Activate USB debugging on your device and restart it in fastboot mode. Connect your device with your USB-C cable.
Go into your ADB / fastboot folder and press shift / rightclick your mouse at twice and open the command prompt.
Bye typing "fastboot devices" or "adb devices" you can check if your device is correctly connect with your PC.
If you´re connected type "fastboot flash system system.img" and wait for end of process. After that type "fastboot flash vendor vendor.img". Now you can reboot your device by typing "fastboot reboot"
Those are my oldschool steps without losing data or settings.

No chance of losing root either, is that correct?
Well I assume that you have TWRP? Reboot into recovery and flash supersu again. That´s all If not you can sideload it via ADB.
In my case I have reflash supersu & xposed framework in TWRP

Change log ? Or its just a security update
Hello there,
so I am in a little conundrum here.
I flashed the system.img and vendor.img following the instructions, but the pixel was just stuck at the plain Google logo.
After giving it something like 30 minutes, I had to power it off.
I am using TWRP and dragon-boot-encryptable-rooted-MXB48T-02102016-1.img stock kernel.
Another boot went without success.
my next thought was to downgrade to MXC14G but trying to do so resulted in:
Code:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash system system.img
target reported max download size of 268435456 bytes
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: unsupported command)
finished. total time: 0.004s
So far TWRP is working and I can operate within it.
Any ideas what went wrong? Should I format system and vendor in TWRP? I don't think this is a good idea... (Last time I tried to do so in this experimental version of TWRP I had to fight a long fight to revive it, because the formatting tool in TWRP was stuck. But that's another story.) Any way to flash the system.img and vendor.img from within TWRP?
Any help would be much appreciated, m8s.
After playing around in TWRP and using the fix fastboot option I am finally able to flash system and vendor in fastboot.
I don't know if the fix fastboot was really the solution, maybe just some sort of placebo, but nevertheless I am able to flash. Problem with the bootloop remains:
Google logo, reboot recovery.
My data partition is alright. What do I need to flash to get it going?
Going in circles here...

Yes, it is verified. I am using all kinds of ways to restore the pixel.
I am positive: fastboot won't write or format partitions unless it is fixed by twrp.

Is it bricked now? Do I have to relock the bootloader to boot it?

:/ After 'successful' flashing of the stock firmware, now there is the laying android with the red exclamation sign... help...
---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------
I redownloaded the official factory image grom google servers.
Then I followed the instruction, means i started the flash-all.bat.
The Tablet boot into the android on the back with the red exclamation mark symbol.
The flashing process went without warnings.
Is it bricked now? Do I have to relock the bootloader to boot it?

Pleas try to reinstall right drivers, change the cable / USB ports. I think your main problem is your system configuration. Good luck
m8... so glad I wasn't too tired to listen to your tip. Awesome! Redid all the steps on my freshly installed laptop, and voila!
Seems either my main PCs USB-connection is flunky or I am damned to reinstall my Windows soon. Scary...
I used the following software to revive the Pixel:
official Google USB Drivers
You have to unzip the file and right-click and install it
then you have to go to your device manager in windows and after connecting the tablet with the PC and getting into fastboot
Find the Android device on the top, select to change driver and go straight to manual selection of the driver, select android and bootloader driver
unpack the official Factory Image with 7Zip until you get to the folder with the flash-all.bat
get the minimal adb fastboot and unpack it in the same folder as the flash-all file
wait until you see the sweet booting animation
I think I didn't forget anything important. My Pixel is alive and ready for prime time.
Big thanks redukt, may the warp speed not pass you!

Sorry for my ignorance
Extract the ryu-m5c14j-factory-b714e9bd.tgz with i.e. 7-zip. In image-ryu-m5c14j.zip you find both files system.img and vendor.img.
So... I´ll hope you have some practices using ADB / fastboot. Put both files in your ADB / fastboot folder. Activate USB debugging on your device and restart it in fastboot mode. Connect your device with your USB-C cable.
Go into your ADB / fastboot folder and press shift / rightclick your mouse at twice and open the command prompt.
Bye typing "fastboot devices" or "adb devices" you can check if your device is correctly connect with your PC.
If you´re connected type "fastboot flash system system.img" and wait for end of process. After that type "fastboot flash vendor vendor.img". Now you can reboot your device by typing "fastboot reboot"
Those are my oldschool steps without losing data or settings.

Hello there,
so I am in a little conundrum here.
I flashed the system.img and vendor.img following the instructions, but the pixel was just stuck at the plain Google logo.
After giving it something like 30 minutes, I had to power it off.
I am using TWRP and dragon-boot-encryptable-rooted-MXB48T-02102016-1.img stock kernel.
Another boot went without success.
my next thought was to downgrade to MXC14G but trying to do so resulted in:
Code:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash system system.img
target reported max download size of 268435456 bytes
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: unsupported command)
finished. total time: 0.004s
So far TWRP is working and I can operate within it.
Any ideas what went wrong? Should I format system and vendor in TWRP? I don't think this is a good idea... (Last time I tried to do so in this experimental version of TWRP I had to fight a long fight to revive it, because the formatting tool in TWRP was stuck. But that's another story.) Any way to flash the system.img and vendor.img from within TWRP?
Any help would be much appreciated, m8s.

Following redukt's instructions, I got the same error that rambobo saw. I rebooted into TWRP and executed the "Fix fastboot" option, then rebooted back to the bootloader. System & Vendor image flashing via ADB worked fine
I am now running M5C14J without loss of data, root, or recovery.
The OTA update reminder disappeared on it's own after 5-10 minutes.
Thanks yall!

You didn't have to apply root again via ADB or TWRP?

Correct
But judging from others' experiences here, YMMV. I tried the latest FlashFire build too, but that got me nowhere.

My phone is not getting power on,though i have done factory reset from twrp 3.000 recovery.Still no go struck in boot menu with rotating logo after 1+ symbol..
Hello . Firstly try get your phone into fastboot mode. Once you have get up adb. (if you don't have adb, or find it really confusing to install, get wugfreshs root tool kit has built in adb terminal)
Open up your terminal plug in your phone and type
Code:
fastboot devices
Something should come up .
Once you done that grab the latest twrp for your device. Then FLASH! AAHHHHHHH, PROTECTOR OF THE UNIVERSE. In fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Once that's done type
Code:
fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
The it should boot into recovery from. Here your computer should recognize your device . You should be able to easily drag and drop a new rom and gaps on to your device

Also factory reset only works on a rom level. So if roms wrong. It won't do anything
So, I had the same problem and here is my fix for it.
I am not sure, but I think you will lost all your data on this way :/
You can Skip the first 2 lines, because when you installed TWRP you already done this
1. Go to a Computer and install Adb
2. Download Minimal Adb and Fastboot
3. Download the offical Rom on the OP2 Site and copy the .zip file into the Fastboot folder
4. Rename the .zip into rom.zip
5.Connect your phone to the Computer
6. Start into Twrp, go to advanced, click on adb Sideload
6. Now go to your computer, into the Fastboot Folder and start the command line and type: adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip
7. It should now take some minutes to install the Rom, you will see how many percentages on the Screen (It will only show until 50%, don't worry about that)
8. Voila, your Phone should now work again
To root it again, there are some modified UpdateSu-Files specially for your current Rom.Version. When you are on 3.5.6 you can use the attached file
