Hi all,
So I recently received a new Axon 7 after having my old one replaced, and I can't seem to root this one. The guide for the root that I am following is located here (https://www.reddit.com/r/Axon7/comments/5ezwj3/axon_7_the_current_rooting_and_custom_rom/)
After I type
Code:
flash.exe -p COM(port) -r
it says
Code:
writing recovery.img success, Device Rooted!
However, when I go to boot into the TWRP recovery, my phone shuts off and does nothing. If anyone could help me figure out how to boot into TWRP, I would appreciate it! Thanks!
EDIT: adb reboot bootloader just restarts the phone and adb reboot recovery shuts it off. Am puzzled...

Hi there,
i bought a used nexus 7 (2012/1st gen) which only boots into recovery (cwm v6.0.2.3) but doesn't show the menu. Only the cwm logo in the center and the version at the bottom left. (see picture attached)
I can't boot into fastboot (Vol Down+Power). This only leads to recovery again. But as mentioned above there's no content, no menu.
The previous owner told me he tried to flash Cyanogenmod 11 which failed and since then it is stuck in this behaviour.
I'm on ubuntu 14.04 and installed android-tools-fastboot and android-tools-adb.
With adb i can get a shell on the device in recovery mode but don't know what to do from there.
"adb reboot bootloader" doesn't work, the device is not responding
Can anyone help or am i doomed?
Update: I downloaded latest TWPR for "grouper" (2.7.1.1) and tried
" adb shell flash_image recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-grouper.img "
which lead to
" failed with error: -1 "
on step futher...
Update:
I was able to get into the bootloader with this method:

(thx acotica)
Now i am trying to flash the stock rom of the nexus 7 (https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=de)
But i am not able to flash the bootloader. The version now is 4.18 and i can neither downgrade or upgrade. fastboot always gives me an error and won't proceed since it would need the bootloader to be 4.23
any help?
Flashing the stock image didn't work as expected.
Bootloader not working anymore
The device is now stuck at the google splash screen with the little open lock below.
I can't enter fastboot anymore, Power+Vol Down kicks me straight to the screen mentioned above...
The device is not recognized by adb or fastboot anymore...
Any hints how i should proceed?
OK so phone was rooted with twrp installed. decided to update to latest ota 30b only I wiped and just flashed boot file and supersu without the actual rom. I know. now the phone goes straight into fastboot mode... I would think twrp is still installed but dont seem to be able to boot into it. I had adb and fastboot on my pc from before but havent used this in some time. if I try to open either of these the command window pops up and quickly closes.. What can I do ?.
new info: fadtboot is working in fact i have wrote a twrp recovery but still cant boot out of fastboot... adb device not listed. i reinstalled minimal adb and fastboot. help
I was on oxygen 3.0.2, so i decided to root my phone, first of all i unlocked my bootloader, but after the install of the root zip file, i got stuck in a bootloop, no way out i can't sideload or mount storage, i can access to recovery and fastboot so.. if u may help me to flash any another rom or just turn back to stock i'll be glad!
recovery: ok
fastboot: ok
no adb
bootloop
EDIT:
when the device is off, with command "adb devices" says:
<serialnumber> unauthorized
tried qualcomm usb mode?
Hello
As menitoned, my phone won't boot into TWRP, it does boot into Android 7.0 EMUI 5.0, can boot into revolutionary recovery, but no, not TWRP... Bootloader is unlocked! Please help
Are you certain it's not booting into TWRP? The reason I ask is I thought I couldn't boot into the custom recovery programme either: it kept loading EMUI, using the phone's buttons. In my case, ver.4.1.1
Have you tried booting via ADB commands? I had reloaded a stock update, then unlocked the bootloader for a second time, only find the same scenario. It wasn't until I tried rebooting with ADB that it actually loaded TWRP.
In case you aren't familiar with the commands. Install ADB Tools, then open a command window from the correct folder location, where ADB tools are installed. To check the PC recognises the device, use:
adb Devices
it should show the device's serial number {I think}. Then:
adb reboot recovery
it should reboot into recovery mode. If TWRP has been installed correctly, it should load into it. Otherwise...I don't have a clue what the issue is. All the best.
UPDATE: Root achieved see thread here
I've managed to extract the boot.img from my device using the following steps, but patching it with MAGISK ends up with boot loop.
Here are the steps I've done.
I've unlocked the bootloader using the standard methods. All ADB commands are run from a computer with ADB and fastboot setup.
Connect phone to computer, enabled ADB usb debugging.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Once the device reboots to the bootloader.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Q7CIF2-byTW7ERUXFU0XlWFYZQM5hysd/ DO NOT FLASH THIS TO YOUR DEVICE only boot from it. This is a patched Moto E5 TWRP image. It takes a while to boot.
Don't mess with anything inside TWRP.
Code:
fastboot boot moto-g6-play-jeter-patched-twrp.img
Once TWRP boots from your computer type:
Code:
adb pull /dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/boot stockboot.img
adb reboot
Once the device reboots and you're back in android run
Code:
adb push stockboot.img /sdcard/
This will push the stockboot.img to your sdcard folder
Intall Magisk Manager - https://github.com/topjohnwu/MagiskManager/releases/download/v5.7.0/MagiskManager-v5.7.0.apk
Patch stockboot.img located on your sdcard using magisk manager.
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img
This will pull the patched_boot.img to your computer
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Once the device reboots into the bootloader you can run
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
fastboot reboot
From here it boots to "N/A" and you get nothing. It just hangs there forever.
From here you can just flash the stockboot.img using the steps below
Hold power + volup + voldown which will boot back to the bootloader
Code:
fastboot flash boot stockboot.img
fastboot reboot
Now you're back on the stock bootloader and the device will boot up like normal.
Anyone have any advice on how to get MAGISK to patch correctly? The stock boot.img is ~16.8MB and the patched one from magisk is 12.1MB. I'm guessing that's the issue, but I'm not sure what else to do.
Hi!
I did the exact same thing with ALI, the Moto G6 non-plus. Glad to see that I'm not the only one struggling.
Hope we will find an answer...
