[Q] Stuck in endless bootup logo - unable to stock flash - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I'm stuck in the endless boot logo problem, I installed google drivers, I'm able to get into recovery mode.
the device manager in win7 reports a "android ADB Device" connected.
but when I issues some of the commands in this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907796 (like adb devices) it doesn't show anything...
What I've to do?? Am I doing something wrong?
thanks

Can you restore your nandroid/twrp backup? If not, fastboot back to stock and start over.

Already did that with no success... .

If your device is rooted, installed a custom recovery and you're able to get into recovery mode Windows should be able identify your device without asking for RSA fingerprint or something.
Get into recovery mode and try "adb devices" from cmd after connecting your device to pc. What do you see?

I'm not rooted,
when rebooting with power and vol- windows recognize the device but "adb devices" gives nothing"
If I select recovery mode the nexus disappears from windows device manager

Check windows device manager to see if you can find any devices without drivers especially something about ADB or Android.

Nothing, when in bootloader (the one with the green robot win belly open) it gets recognized as "bootloader adb interface"; when in recovery (green robot with red exclamation mark) there is nothing in device manager

So you can issue commands over fastboot then? You can flash stock firmware images over fastboot to get everything working again.

but when if fastboot the command "adb devices" return nothing...

When you're in fastboot mode you don't see your device online over adb, you can freely issue any commands from fastboot if your computer recognizes the bootloader interface.

I was already following your guide....
Didn't know that if I was already in fastboot mode I could issue fastboot commands even if adb devices didn't show anything...
N00b Error!! Now the thing is clearer to me
Flashed image, and the tablet appears to be working :fingers-crossed:
Thank you very much!!

Fastboot, waiting for device.

Hi guys, I recantly decided to update my gt540 from 2.1 to 2.3.3
I followed steps by steps on by this tutorial - http://fdapps.comuf.com/downloads/The LG GT540 Optimus reference page.pdf
Installed rom with fastboot, tried to install Clockwork with fastboot, I typed fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery.img , and then there's <waiting for device> , doesn't go further, I have everything installed sdk, usb drivers and usb debugging activated. Maybe there's some problem with key combination, to get in fastboot. From google I understood, that I have to turn phone off, then press and hold camera + press power button! I did other combinations too, but didnt work.
Just waiting for device..
Any ideas? I read, that if you're in fastboot there's just a black screen, and on pc desktop appears fastboot usb. I have non of that.
Thanks for help in advance.

Hello
1. you need to install a ROM with fastboot the most common is europe + fastboot (KDZ) ROM.
http://www.mediafire.com/?96nu9lb6afx22a7
2. once its finished phone will reboot, then fast login into fastboot mode CAMERA + POWER
3. You are missin 1 thing, OEM usb drivers not GOOGLE usb drivers as some tutorial says, those are just for Android Developer Phones (ADP), Nexus One, and Nexus S.
LG_Android_USB_Driver_Rebuilt
http://www.mediafire.com/?pbigrb8cimmxa4d
* these drivers are for your pc to recognize your phone in fastboot mode, they are not the normal LG usb drivers
4. for install the drivers abouve follow these smll tutorials
* if using windows 7:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#Win7
* if using windows XP:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#WinXp
once is installed plug your phone in fastboot mode to your pc, now your pc has to recognize your phone wait until it finish installing the drivers and read it properly
5. unzip the new ROM files into C:\*SDK\tools
6. open CMD Terminal and go to C:\*SDK\tools, type:
cd C:\*SDK\tools
7. once in, type
fastboot flash recovery recovery_clockwork_3.x.x.x_swift.img"
fastboot -w
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
*Just in case it drops you an error AdbWinApi.dll missing here is the file. place it in C:\*SDK\tools and try again

fastboot "waiting for device"
I have installed all the drivers and everything is working fine except fastboot. I have "nexus s" with me. The problem is:
I do "adb reboot bootloader" to flash the images, but after that if I do "fastboot devices", it doesnot show my device and if I do "fastboot flash ..", it just displays "waiting for device".
Can any one please help, I need it urgently..
THanks in advance

[Q] Help with bricked Nexus 10

I am trying to root my Nexus 10. This is what I did, but it ended up bricked!
I installed the Android SDK on my Windows 7 computer, and downloaded the Android USB drivers and tools.
I turned on USB debugging, and checked I could see the device with adb list devices.
I downloaded recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-manta.img, booted the tablet into bootloader, and flashed it
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-manta.img
That seemed to work, so I went into recovery, but recovery had all sorts of errors - it couldn't find the sdcard, or mount most of the partitions.
Rebooting stops in the animated logo, apparently for ever.
I have since tried to reload the factory image, but the computer no longer recognises the device - fastboot devices returns nothing.
Help!!!
[Later] The tablet was running the latest O/S (if I could boot it, I could tell you the number!)
Things have got worse. Now, when I go into bootloader mode, the volume keys don't do anything any more, so I can't even turn it off now
Make sure fastboot is set up properly, may need to reinstall drivers or try another computer or try another USB
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277112
I have a feeling the recovery you flashed was corrupt in some way, did you by chance check the md5sum of the image first?
If your able to get fastboot to recognize tab
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
Download latest twrp recovery
Check md5sum
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Then you will either need to flash stock system.img from fastboot or boot to new recovery and adb sideload a ROM
Hopefully your emmc is not to severely corrupt to all this, best of luck!

Thanks, that was pretty much what I did. The trick was to get it working in boot loader mode. I kept trying to reboot it, and in the end holding down power plus both volume up and down all at the same time for 2 beeps made it work.

I have the same problem, however I can't access my Nexus 10, fastboot devices and adb devices gives back an empty line, so I can't access the N10 with fastboot or adb, to lash a ROM. Factory reset from CWM doesn't work, ˛internal card can't be accessed from CWM ("E: Can't mount /sdcard).
How can I get out of this trouble? (Solutions in forums usually involve reflashing with fastboot or formatting the external SD card. These solutions don't work here...
Any idea would be highly appreciated...

Keep trying to reboot into bootloader mode, until it works. Hold down power and both volume buttons at the same time until it beeps twice. If the volume buttons then work to change the option on the left, but fastboot devices on the pc shows nothing, try reinstalling the Google drivers on the pc (via Device Manager, update drivers, have disk). (may have missed out a step in device manager instructions, but there are plenty of Google hits on installing add drivers if you don't already know how).

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.
I can get into into bootloader mode after keeping the 3 buttons (power+volume up+volume down) pushed together (after two beeps). From there I can't boot the device. (Boot gets into the Google animation forever), so as factory reset.
Also device manager doesn't see the N10, so I can't update the drivers on my PC.

After some repeated turning off and on, now I can see the N10 from the PC (also updated the USB drivers to be on the safe side).
If I enter the bootloader, fastboot sees the N10 in a normal form, if from there I go into recovery mode, adb sees the N10 in recovery mode. Should I proceed from here by using fastboot, or rather adb?
Csaba
You should just use volume up + power (or the whatever the volume rocker button closer to power key) never had it beep to get there
To both of you, follow the steps from above, so long as it isn't a hardware issue this will get you working

Glad you have managed to make the device visible again (it's really scary when you can't, I know from yesterday!).
Go into bootloader mode (not recovery), and follow the fastboot instructions demkantor gave earlier in the thread.
Get your factory image from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mantaray.
Get TWRP recovery from http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/128.
At least, that's how I did it.

Thank you very much. Tablet is up and running again. :good:
Now, my next question, after being unsuccessful with CWM, I tried using TWRP for rooting the tablet, however it wouldnt start.
When I go from the bootloader into recovery mode only a laying android figure is displayed with a red triangle with an exclamation mark inside.
I have USB debugging enabled. What can be the problem?

Only fastboot works when in bootloader, adb needs a custom recovery or android to work. Use fastboot to flash the images (run the install all bat file).

Connect your device to the PC in fastboot mode and type "fastboot devices". Do you get an output?
Remember that you have to run the command line from the folder where your fastboot.exe resides.

No Fastboot Option In Bootloader

I restarted my phone this evening, and when it booted up I got a "decryption unsuccessful" message. When that happens it appears my only option is to flash a factory image. So I download the most recent image, and when I get into the bootloader I see no option for fastboot.
When I'm in TWRP (3.0.2-0) I can see my phone listed in recovery or sideload when I run "adb devices" from my computer, but no devices are listed when the command is run while on the main bootloader screen.
Not sure if it matters at this point, but I had the 20160821 Pure Nexus build installed when this happened.
How do I get my phone into fastboot mode so I can flash the factory image?
Thanks so much for your help.
It sounds like you may not have the latest drivers for the Android SDK or ADB toolkit.

Not sure what you're talking about. Turn the phone off. Hold vol down + power, to boot into the bootloader / fastboot.
Run the fastboot devices command, and you should see your device. That's where you can flash your system images.

So, if I'm at the bootloader's main screen, I should be able to see my device when I run the command "adb fastboot devices", right? Cuz that's not happening. Also, when I use the volume rocker to see the available options fastboot isn't listed.
When I go into recovery from the bootloader and run the command "adb devices" I see my device listed with "recovery" next to it. When I launch ADB sideload from TWRP, I also see my device listed with "sideload" next to it.
So, I can run fastboot commands when I'm in the bootloader even if "adb fastboot devices" returns nothing?

Thanks. I'll do as you said and report back. Maybe what I'm doing wrong is recalling the bootloader unlock procedures where "adb" precedes some of the commands when executing them from the Windows command prompt.
Just to be ridiculously clear it's:
1. While unplugged, Power + Volume Down to enter the bootloader.
2. Once in the bootloader connect USB cable.
3. Navigate to the SDK platform-tools folder, and from the Windows command prompt execute "fastboot devices". Then I should see my device listed.
Sorry if I'm being dense.

Fastboot mode issue in MiA1

Hi.
Recently I decided to flash lineage os 15.1 on my MiA1
For that I have downgrade to Android nougat.
After downgrading I booted my device.
After setting up device I booted device in fastboot mode to follow further steps like flashing TWRP and all but the problem is my device goes in fastboot mode and it is not identified by abd and after that it is automatically getting restarted and is not holding in fastboot mode.
Please help??
Odd issue. What are you using to flash? If you are using XiaoMiFlash.exe, you'll want to try the (THIS WILL REMOVE ALL YOUR DATA) "clean all" option. Please note that this removes all your data.
I have used MiFlash tool for this and now My device automatically reboot from fastboot mode so I am not able to use adb as well to flash rom or twrp also Now MiFlash tool is not recognising the device.

Hmm. What ROM version are you trying to flash on this? If your device isn't recognized by your PC when in fastboot mode, I'm not sure how you'd flash it.

It should boot if you've fully flashed it and cleaned the user data partition. If it still isn't, you'll want to wait for other members with more experience in bricks to chime in.

My device is booting up without any problems.
But the problem is bootloader is still unlocked. So i am not able to update via OTA.
And as the device does not holds in fastboot mode so I am not able to do other flash work.
Is there any way I can share a video of my problem with you?

Oh. If it's booting up fine, then you shouldn't be worried too much.
If it keeps restarting in Fastboot mode, it could be a driver issue which is preventing your PC from recognizing your device and vice versa. I'm on Windows 10 which installs drivers automatically so I've never had experience with it.

If i boot in fastboot mode the device should be in fastboot mode till power button is not pressed for at least 10 seconds.
But in this case it gets switched off.
I have not connected the USB to pc and nothing else.

I think that's expected behavior? If it doesn't recognize itself being connected to a device, it'll exit fastboot mode.
I think you need to connect it to the USB cable and into your PC for it to not restart/power off.

No when I connect it to pc at that time also same happens.
Previously when booted in fastboot mode it will stay ther by the time juice is out.

So do you know how can I help myself out?
wait.. what exacly did you do when you booted into fastboot? did you type "adb devices" or "fastboot devices"? also, try rebooting into fastboot mode by typing "adb reboot bootloader" in cmd, with your phone plugged into your pc, and with the proper platform-tools installed. it shouldn't really go away from fastboot mode like that.

Hy man, I know basic of adb and I use cmd "adb devices"
My device is recognised when it is on.
I can also give various cmd like boot in recovery or fastboot mode or reboot and the device follow the instructions.
Please see the video that I've shared.
Once fastboot mode is on the device is automatically restarted in about 10 to 15 sec and within this time MiFlash tool or adb cmd prompt bot does not recognise my device.
I have tried to flash OTA via adb side load but it is showing error.
Help me with your input!

Your device doesn't get detected in your CMD prompt when it's in fastboot AND you type "fastboot devices"?
If it doesnt then you might have flashed something incorrectly.
Also, make sure to have your android drivers up to date in your pc. It's very, very likely that you don't have them installed on your PC, or they are outdated. See this: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/oem-usb.html

I have faced this issue. Yesterday i dirty flashed a custom rom. but i forgot how to dirty flash. i just simply flashed the rom and restarted the phone. it was mandatory to flash custom recovery and gapps after flashing a rom dirtily or normally. but i didn't. After the reboot completed, i remembered that i didn't flashed the twrp and gapps. So, i go back recovery mod, guessed i could flash twrp now. But i didn't see any custom recovery on my phone. But the phone boots, and i can use the phone. Still, i'm on that phone, while i'm typing this comment. i didn't lost my data cause i flashed dirtily. But the problem is, as i didn't flashed gapps or magisk (for root access), now i can't use google apps like, play store, and more. As i don't have root access on my phone so, i can't run flasify, to flash custom recovery. neither i can run other apps that need root. As i didn't flash custom recovery, now i can't flash gapps, magisk and whatever that needs a custom recovery.
I told some rom porter about the matter. They told me to flash stock rom. So, i was trying to flash stock rom. but flashing stock rom requires a fastboot mode. But my fastboot logo doesn't appear and it's blank. I told this to a rom porter. But he said, He doesn't know about that and he can't help.
