OK I'm sorry but I'm Having issues with Fastboot

I tried asking in the Boot Image thread but since that thread was originally posted in January, I dont think anyone even goes in there anymore. OK this is what Ive got.
Im not sure if it was the new radio update or the JF1.5 or 1.51 but ever since Ive upgraded from RC33 the fastboot screen has changed and I havent been able to change my Boot Image.
Instead of just connecting the phone to the computer and pressing back to get fastboot it now give me 4 options instead of just fastboot.Up top it says
FASTBOOT USB (highlighted in red) then
<CAMERA STEP2> HBoot Mode
<SEND> Reset Device
<ACTION> Restart to HBoot
<MENU> Power Down
Is there a new driver i have to download? or is it something else? because when i go to RUN/CMD and I type in the correct commands to change the Boot Image it does nothing it says <waiting for device>
I'm Sorry if this may seem like a dumb Q? but I figured maybe I wasn't the only one having this problem?

sorry I dont really know the answer man, sounds like you are using a new spl or some other bootloader. However, just to let you know, you really needed to post this in the dev section and not the theme section. you probably would get a better response over there.
Stericson

un install your phones drivers in device manager.
unplug your phone,
reboot your computer into safe mode.
plug your phone into usb.
a dialog box will pop up, navigate it to the sdk folder or wherever you have the g1 drivers. install them. wait till it finishes.
then unplug your phone and boot it into fastboot mode. the plug it back in again. and install the same drivers again
unplug your phone and reboot your computer. you should be able to access your phone in fast boot now.
dont push boot images in safe mode, it may be unstable

Thanx guys let me see what i can do
Editk i must have updated to another SPL so i went back to the Original HardSpl and it came back thanx stericson fo the Idea. back to normal
Message to MODS: you can close this if you want I'm sorry for wasting space

Hi,
There is a new driver for the usb connection.
Unzip this file to a folder and plug in your phone don't Mount .
The computer should ask for a driver.
if it doesn't look in control panel, system, usb controllers.
One of the devices will should a problem, update the driver with the files you downloaded and you should be ok.
The computer doesn't recognize the new bootloader until you update the driver.
When you then plug in your phone, it will say fastboot usb.

I did the same as you and went back to HardSPL
trying to find a way to get fastboot to work on the newer SPL tho
will update if i get it to work

Nexus 7 stuck on fastboot screen/bootloop...bricked?

Hi
Tried to flash a new kernel and all seemed ok (flashed phones and nexus 7 few times now) when I came out of flashing I hit a bootloop, I though nothing of it and tried to restart....same issue, so next I tried to go into cw recovery, no joy, it will not show again.
I can power/vol keys to android fastboot screen with start power restart boot and so on but if I choose recovery nothing happens, I am stuck with either a bootloop or stuck on android fastboot screen and not able to move from either.
I have tried the toolkit and most other things but the problem is it cannot see my nexus 7, even after installing drivers and so on the toolkit (top right) does not list my nexus as found, because of this I cannot reflash any stock firmware/recover/reflash cwr.
Not sure how I can get around this if my pc cannot see the nexus 7.
Thanks for any help

Hi
I cannot flash anything. On the fastboot screen I can scroll up and down powr off/start/recovery....if I choose any (apart from power off) nothing happens.
When I hook it up to my pc it cannot see it, nexus 7 toolkit also cannot see it, it does not list it as found so I cannot flash anything on to it, if I try it just says waiting for device, tried other things and same thing either waiting for device or asks if fastboot installed.

You are already at the bootloader screen. Use your computer to fastboot flash a new kernel. Being able to get into recovery has nothing to do with it. You screwed it up flashing a kernel. Its likely thats all you need to fix it. Flash a new one with fastboot.

Downloaded the fastboot exe but unsure what it needs to work as when I click on it a run box opens for like half a second and then closes, dont get a chance to read what it says, think I will have to read up on it.

How did you get it to work? I have problem getting my device to be recognized. Stuck on boot loop too..

Hey man, how did you get your computer to recognize your device? Would be great to finally fix mine as this is the same exact problem -- computer doesn't recognize it even though in fastboot.

I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do, sorry: you said the pc does not see the nexus, "even thought in fastboot".. If you say even thought, it seems to me that you are able to access Android itself or maybe recovery? In that case I can't see the issue.. Sorry my fault, non english mother tongue
But, if have the device soft bricked and you are able to enter ONLY the bootloader (that is what we call often fastboot), then you should start to remove the not working fastboot drivers installed into your PC: launch the nexus in fastboot mode, go to Device Manager into your PC and search for a driver with an yellow exclamation point. This issue is very common so I hope that you have it, too.. So, uninstall that driver, then unlink the nexus from your PC; after a few seconds attach it to another USB port and see if Windows install a driver (it should). If this new driver doesn't work, too, or if Windows does no install any, try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502
Hope it helps, let us know, see you!
EDIT: also, if you still have no luck, you should find a Linux or Mac PC/laptop and download the adb/fastboot binary files for that OS; this will definitively solve your driver issue ( @#ò#@!"@# Winzozz )

Hi sorry for not being clear. Basically I am only allowed to access the bootloader and my device is soft-bricked. I'm pretty sure I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers about a year ago when I originally did it, but I'll try again and let you know. Thanks!

[Q] Stuck in FTM Mode?

Hi folks,
My wife dropped her 2-week old Nexus 4 which caused part of the front glass to crack and portions of the touchscreen to be dead, so we had to send it into LG for repairs (at quite a price tag). Fine.
So we get it back, I turn it on, and it's in something called "FTM Mode" (file transfer mode, I think)? I can't seem to get it out of it.
Things I've tried:
Rebooting (have to hold the power button down for 5-10 sec).
Factory data reset (the settings are available through the notification menu in FTM Mode).
In recovery mode:
[*]Start (goes right back to FTM Mode)
[*]Power off (duh)
[*]Restart bootloader (gets me right back to the same screen)
[*]Recovery mode (gives me a little android with its stomach open, a red exclamation point, and says "No command.")​
I attempted LG support, but they asked me to do a few of these (after asking me to hit the "home" button...), then told me to mail it back to them because they probably have to flash it.
So, the obvious question: how the hell can I get out of FTM Mode?
Secondary question: if none of the above worked and I do have to flash the OS, can I flash it myself to default Jellybean? Any idiot-friendly step-by-step guides out there?

Here you are! (I was the one talking to you on Reddit)
Since you can get to fastboot you can just flash the stock image files and you should be fine! The toolkit is in the original dev section but you cannot download the images from it anymore. A few people here have the images though so hopefully someone will pop up with them shortly

No worries! You can use the toolkit without knowing fastboot, I just recommended learning it in case you ever need to flash without it. I believe after you download the toolkit there will be a folder you can place the stock image into then you can use the toolkit to flash the image from that folder. I'm not 100% what folder that is though but I believe the name makes it fairly obvious if you look for it

Unfortunately, I haven't even been able to install the bloody USB driver, so fastboot/adb can't even see the device. I've described by problem here. I think the source issue is what LG did during repairs... the device is named "Full JellyBean on Mako" instead of something like "Nexus 4", so the drivers in that post aren't being recognized by Windows as valid for the device. At least that's my guess.

OK, got it all fixed.
This post was incredibly useful. Once I got the USB drivers installed and fastboot recognizing the device (oddly, adb wasn't able to), it was extremely smooth unlocking the bootloader and flashing the image.
Thanks!

For future reference ADB only works in recovery and when booted into android, never in boot loader. Bit glad you got it working

[Q] [HELP] Hard Brick Nexus 7

Hi, this is my firt post, i'm going to quote this problem that's the same problem that I have...
"Device : Nexus 7
Problem : I was trying to unroot it and flash a 4.4.2 ROM to the device and i ended up bricking it somehow. I looked around a lot on here and youtube. I found one solution i had not tried which was to get into recovery mod. But the device was stuck on the boot loaded. So i hard shut it down, and pressed the key combination to load the boot loader. And, the screen wasn't loading. I heard the little chimes my computer makes when ever a USB device is active, so i heard the thing load into the boot loader. But its not showing on the screen!
Please help i really shouldn't have done this. But i am literally about to cry.
I tried using Wugfresh's Nexus toolkit to flash the ROM, and it would stop on sending system.
I dont know if i did something wrong, if the kernel was messed up, if the kit wasnt right, please as the video said there is 4 million members here. someone has to know what to do...

Do you get a charging icon when you plug in the n7? did you try a diffrent cable?What exactly does ur computer do when you plug in the dead n7 (does it thy try to install a apx driver) Does toolkit see tablet like its in the bootloader? If so try to flash a new bootloader!
try this found in another thread
To get it out of AXP mode, the correct instructions:
1. Plug in the usb into computer
2. Hold Volume Down + Volume Up + Power simultaneously for like 15 seconds
3. The bootloader should show up.
4. If it doesn't, unplug the usb cable, and plug it back in and then repeat the these procedures

Wugs tool kit
First when you plug it in hold all three power buttons
Second
I also have used the tool kit it gets stuck all the time on the flashing system. I think its a time out error because of the complexity of extracting the image and flahing the image with out a retry or check command. Here is a fix that i have figured out. When in Wugs tool kit download the Os Version you want on your device locate the folder with the downloaded image and extract it using 7 zip. once extracted flash the remaing .img files seperatly under andvance setting menu select flash system then user data it should boot right up. if you forgot what version you flashed previously flash all img files boot bootloader system user etc. if you still have problems let me know. i can give you my email.
Click thanks if i helped

Unfortunately it sounds like you erased your bootloader and nvflash can do nothing for you unless you used the unbrickable mod before u f'ed up your tablet. Try sending it to asus for Warranty tell em you installed the ota update and it wouldn't boot up afterwards. I have read many threads about this issue with nobody being able to recover there tablet. Asus does have global warranty

Nexus 4 Problem: Wont boot into system or recovery, but fastboot and able to flash?!!

Very weird behaviour:
1. Phone does not boot up at all - neither system nor recovery (tried 5.1 and 4.4.4 factory images and 2.8.3.0 TWRP as recovery).
2. Can start in fastboot mode and flash factory image but after flashing modem the device is "stuck" in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode.. when I restart into fastboot it continues to flash and finishes the flashing process apparently.
3. When the device is off and plugged in its recognized as "unkown device" or QHSUSB_DLOAD again - no signs of charging at all.
Phone got to me in "bricked" state - would not boot and was only showing red light when plugging in - after loading it for a while (it showed the battery with a lighning inside on screen during charge attempt, but no percentages at all) i flashed latest factory image but that did not help it seems.. =(
Tried "fastboot erase cache" as well...
Any ideas?

downloaded the stock factory images (tried 4.4.4 and 5.1 so far) from google and used the "flash-all.bat". Should I do it manually instead?
What you mean "-w update" is that a parameter for the fastboot flash command?

He is asking if you wiped the device after flashing. You flashed the image using the flash-all.bat, which wipes the device. And you even erased the cache. So from the flashing point of view, it seems you did everything right. Do you have the wall charger to load the battery (for some hours)? I would try this. Besides, here is another thread, which seems to be related: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/qhsusbdload-problem-t2253874
cheers

Had it charging for hours before flashing, so battery cant be the problem..
But when I now put the device on PC (or Charger) nothing seems to happen - not showing the charging symbols and PC recognizes the device as QHSUSB_DLOAD.
Fastboot mode is working, Boot to system and recovery show the google logo but thats it, not even a boot animation.

now its gettin recognized only as "unknown device" not even QHSUSB_DLOAD anymore.. weird

dont do fastboot erase cache. Do fastboot format cache.
reinstall the correct google usb drivers manually (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-s/general/tutorial-n00bs-install-drivers-windows-t1901617)
try to flash 4.2.2 and see if it boots up using the flash all bat.
that QHSUSB_DLOAD mode i think its teh qualcomm recovery mode or something like that, there is a thread on xda about it.

Yea good idea gonna try and flash older firmware - although there was 5.0 or 5.1 on it when the phone got to me..
Starting to believe its a hardware issue or the bootloader is fked up somehow - the thing wasnt even rooted when it wouldnt start anymore ...
Are there any ready to use packages to flash bootloader again with qpst? Dont have much time for this thing anymore - so I cant assemble my own files - unless thats a quick process.. but from what ive seen its a bit difficult, right?

thanks man, tried that but no help. Phone isnt really stuck in the qhsusb_dload mode but it just won't boot neither the normal kernel nor the recovery system. All I can get this thing to boot is the fastboot mode and sometimes after flashing and rebooting from there the phone will be recognized as QHSUSB_DLOAD. When I plug it in while its off (either PC or wall charger) the Google Logo comes up, just as if its trying to boot, but no charging symbols.
In this state (google logo stuck) the pc does not recognize it at ALL - after a while the pc says "unknown device" has been attached but it has no hardware id or anything.
So the booting process is broken most likely. Question is if that is fixable with QPST or something else? Don't wanna invest any more time if its not likely to suceed though.. Already spent hours on this damn thing.. =)

I know this situation man, I spent many hours too and finally solution came out that simple Hope you solve it soon

well i tried that - but i only get a "red" light when holding volume down and power while on wall charger.
This resets the QHSUSB_DLOAD mode, but still wont make the phone boot for me. Tried that combo several times - only "red" light no orange or smth.
When i do that combo when the phone is plugged in to the pc and its in qhsusb_dload mode the red light will flash instead of beeing on all the time.
So I think ill give up unless someone can point me to a good QPST guide to rewrite bootloader for the nexus 4...
Must be bootloader or hardware issue im quite sure..
