[Q] ADB sideload Issue - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wiped everything with no rom or backup on my device (d800 using cwm touch) I get a unauthorized mssg when I try adb devices while it bootloops& no device found when in adb sideload, I can't authorize it cause I can't get past the bootloop... Any ideas? Been reading all day/night...

I don't think anyone has gotten adb sideload working for our phone as far as I can tell, anyone know how to authorize adb from only recov or bootloop? Or if you could restore a recovery made using a diff recov?

Can you get into fastboot or download mode?

I get into download but then it says firmware update don't unplug usb n it says root in red at the bottom but it just hangs there at 0% ... And idk if fast boot works, the phone comes up unauthorized in adb.. Would fast boot still work with it not being authorized?

How do you get into fastboot on this device anyway? I can only get to cwm recovery and a download mode that tries to download a firmware update every time I do..

Broken recovery after 4.3 update

I sideloaded the 4.3 update on my Nexus 7. The update went fine, but afterward I used ADB to reboot to recovery because I wanted to re-root it. When I boot into recovery the screen shows the Android lying on its back with an exclamation mark, and fastboot can't find the device. How can I fix my recovery? I did flash recovery when I updated to 4.3.
Thanks

After posting this I tried booting with Vol- held down. It worked, recovery behaved as normal and I was able to use fastboot to flash TWRP.

JWR66Y Update Recovery No Command

I used the OTA recovery to update to JWR66Y, and this worked correctly. I flashed the update using clockworkmod, then clockworkmod asked if I wanted to also flash the recovery part of the update and I did. Now the phone will not boot into recovery mode. It now says no command with the exposed android and an exclamation rather than any recovery option. I attempted to use fastboot to reflash clockworkmod but the phone doesnt show up in adb devices after the adb reboot bootloader command, and when I use the fastboot flash recovery recoveryxxxx.IMG command, it just says waiting for device and nothing happens.
Anyone have any ideas? My apologies if this has already been covered but I did not find it trying to search.

This is the stock recovery which includes now the "no command". To access the menu of this stock recovery press power then press volume up while you keep pressing power.
Good luck.

Install the Universal Naked drivers then adb/fastboot will work.
You had the right idea.
Is there a Linux fix for this issue, or do I need to bite the bullet and do a windows install, eek.

Nexus 4 (4.4.2) not mounting after unlocking bootloader

Nexus 4 running 4.4.2 bootloader version MAKOZ30d
I used Wug's root toolkit to unlock my bootloader but after reboot into fastboot, neither my windows 7 machine nor my linux mint machine will mount the phone without MTP turned on. I can run adb commands while MTP is on but drivers fail to load if mtp is off.. So now I have an unlocked bootloader and am unable to complete the rooting proces..
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers!
go to settings/storage open 3dots menu /usb computer connection. if nothing is selected that is why your phone doesn't connect. select mtp an problem solved.
if it's not that i cannot help you except suggesting to reinstall android from scratch using wug toolkit.

You can't "mount storage" in Fastboot mode.... what exactly are you trying to do?

Trying to finish the rooting process by using adb.. by "mount" I mean get access in fastboot from either of my computers. Didn't have this problem with my other N4.. when I plug the phone into my computer while in fastboot and try any adb commands.. I get <waiting for device> nothing... It seems like the adb drivers aren't loading while in fastboot. I'll try to back things out using the toolkit again..

OK, so your fastboot commands are not working, that would likely be a driver issue? If you do
Code:
fastboot devices
and get a result, then keep going, if you don't, use one of the driver options in Wugfresh's toolkit, follow the instructions TO THE LETTER...
If you are just trying to get root and are unlocked, download the latest SuperSU.zip (to your phone preferably) from http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu and openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-mako.img then start phone in Fastboot mode and enter:
Code:
fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-mako.img
this will start TWRP on your device WITHOUT flashing it.
If the SuperSU zip file is on your phone, just use TWRP's Install button and navigate the file and flash it, then reboot and enjoy.
If the SuperSU zip is on your PC, then in TWRP go to Advanced, and start ADB Sideload, give it a few seconds for it to be recognized by your PC, you should be able to enter
Code:
adb devices
and get a result of SIDELOAD back, then enter:
Code:
adb sideload UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip
Or whatever the current SuperSU zip file is named. Then reboot and enjoy, your rooted!
Remember that adb commands only work in android and custom recovery NOT in fastboot mode.

Ok.. If I can't run adb commands from fastboot, how do I enter that command in fastboot?

ADB sideload is a special mode that recovery can be placed into, it only allows the "sideload" command to be used. Fastboot is different, it uses the fastboot.exe program and fastboot mode on the android device to allow a limited list of features to be used.
I don't know what you are using for a rooting guide, but basically the end result is to flash SuperSU via recovery, that is all that is really needed.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
Well, basically if your boot loader is unlocked and you have a custom recovery installed just download the latest superSU zip to your SD card. Reboot into recovery, install SuperSU, reboot. Alas, you're rooted.

That's the problem.. No custom recovery installed.. Still working on the driver issue.

If you unlocked your bootloader your drivers should be working fine. If you rebooted your phone now you'd see it works fine. Next step in rooting is to flash custom recovery. Download a custom recovery, I recommend latest version of TWRP, then flash the recovery image. 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' (replace recovery.img with whatever .img file you are flashing.
Once custom recovery is installed you can boot into it to flash supersu. If using TWRP it will prompt you to root when you reboot it.
Thanks.. And please don't take offense to this but re-read the thread. Ever since I used wug's rootkit to unlock the bootloader, neither my pc nor linux machine will recognize the Nexus 4. When I plug it in I get a usb error "device failed to load".. When I look at the device mgr it's listed as unknown device. Btw.. I've restarted both my phone and machine multiple times to no avail.

Unknown device? Youve probably installed no or wrong fastboot drivers.

Download the factory image and extract it. Inside is a .zip file, extract that too. In there you'll find a system.img file. User that on fastboot
fastboot flash system system.img

re install the adb drivers boot the phone into recovery , toolkit will detect your phone
Power off the phone, hold the vol+ and vol- button, press and hold the power button. This will take you into fastboot. Connect the USB cable and install the naked USB drivers.
