I downloaded Nexus Toolkit 7.9 and ran a factory flash and unroot. Now im stuck on this Google boot screen. Iv'e tried to go into recovery nothing but boot logo. Ive tried doing almost every option. What else can I try? Help Please.
Advice not use toolkits, but that's your choice
Boot to fastboot and make sure your still unlocked, if not
fastboot oem unlock
Then wipe partitions again
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
Now flash new recovery
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Now boot to new recovery and go to advanced
Choose adb sideload
adb sideloade romofchoice.zip
Then probably need gapps
adb sideload gapps.zip
Now rebbot to ROM
These steps are to get you up and running with a custom ROM if you want stock unroofed than from fastboot lock bootloader and flash stock ROM of choice

I've had the same issue and am still having it. Your tablet must be like mine where it doesn't like the new kitkat bootloaders. No one has been able to help me so far yet either so I will watch this thread as well
you can follow the instruction in this thread. I got boot loop too. And this tool worked like a charm

Hi, tried to install a 4.4 ROM but it failed and then went downhill. Does anyone have the latest image file for the bootloader? Now I am soft bricked trying to go back to stock but all I can find are the old bootloaders and they do not work with the kitkat image file from google. Thanks for the help!

You can find many of the kernels/recoveries/bootloaders in the download section of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2534698
The problem is it might not get you to where you want to be.
What exactly are you calling a "brick"?
If you have a bootloader issue, you won't even see the Google during boot. It is rare to be bricked in that way.
You are probably stuck on the X or bouncing balls animation.
You can get out of that by going to recovery and performing wipe data factory reset.
If you are stuck at "Google", then you need to reflash the factory image (you can choose the nowipe option and possibly keep your user data)

hey, thanks for the reply. I'm trying to get my tablet to kitkat with the stock image from google. but I hear that with kitkat there is a new bootloader so I want to update that through fastboot (my device is recognized so I call it a soft boot) but the problem is when I erase the boot and reflash the boot.img and try to flash the new .img it doesn't load up. im using these commands
Code:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash boot
fastboot flash recovery
fastboot flash system
fastboot reboot-bootloader
my current bootloader version says FLO 4.01 not sure how to update it.

4.01 is the bootloader that came with kitkat.
you can't just say
fastboot flash boot
you need to say
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and have the boot.img in place.
I suggest you just follow the instructions in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47640458#post47640458
Use the nowipe option and you should be able to keep your user data unless you erased or messed it up earlier.

AH! It was in the general section, I looked everywhere in the development sections. Thank you very much!
Please help.. I was trying to root my n7.. I managed to unlock the bootloader.. then flashed the twrp.. but when I reboot my device it went on an infinite bootloop.. i tried to reboot many times but it didnt work.. I asked a friend and told me to wipe cache and dalvik then restore factory but everything failed.. then he said to flash another recovery which is cwm touch recovery.. I was also able to flash it but im still stuck in a bootloop whenever I try to reboot.. please help me.. Idk what to do..
After unlocking the bootloader all partitions are wiped, so as of know you have no os
So you need to do one of two things, boot to fastboot and flash factory system.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Just Google search
android factory image
To find the correct one
Then if you want root for this you will need to boot to recovery and flash superuser
Or, just find one of the many custom prerooted Roms and just flash through recovery/adb sideload
adb sideload nameofrom.zip
adb sideload gapps.zip
Either method you choose should only take a few minuets but if you get stuck let me know and I'll lend a hand

I have successfully unlocked the bootloader. I flashed the cwm recovery by fastboot with the proper command and the command executed fine. I also erased the cache with fastboot. But when I select recovery from the hboot menu it gets stuck on to screen with the HTC logo with following text in red "this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc without written permission". I cannot access the cwm menu.
I tried the twrp recovery too but no avail. The same screen comes up.
I searched a bit and found that some have faced the same issue with HTC ONE X and had their problem solved by flashing an interim unofficial cwm built for their device. But I can't find any such interim cwm recovery for HTC ONE V.
Please help.
What command u used to flash??

fastboot flash recovery nameoftherecovery.img
In my case it was fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Nothing wrong on my side. This is not my first time.
And the commands executed without any error.
I even relocked the bootloader and unlocked it again. But, still the problem persists.

If you take a ruu and remove the Rom.zip and from that take the recovery.img and flash that, does the phone boot into the stock recovery?

Ok I have rooted my phone a Z00A with 16gb/2gb using this Video youtube.com/watch?v=9l-l96jtt10 and installed TWRP but whenever I try to install and boot into recovery it boots into fastboot instead same as when I try to install a rom. How do I get into TWRP and get rid of Fastboot?
The main problem is fastboot, it's the only thing my phone will load and all the options except for power off just reset the phone into fastboot. If i hook up to my pc and use Fastboot Recovery Launcher I can get it to boot into TWRP with all it's functionality but no matter what I do once I reboot it's back to fastboot screen. I have tried to install SuperZenR19 and the CM12 roms and even formatted data before installing a rom but still it reboots to fastboot.
Enable USB debugging and connect it to system.
Open up the fastboot (command prompt) and flash the recovery again.
Use SSJ Tethered Version (Permanent) version and then try.
Make sure you flash it by using fastboot
'fastboot flash recovery filename.img'
Remove ' '
Success!? Nope!
Ok I reran the CWM cai dat and finally booted in TWRP, just flashed SuperZen 19. Thanks for the replies and wish me luck! The stock os is just such memory hogging garbage that I hope I will get better performance now.
*** EDIT***
Spoke too soon, I was able to install SuperZen R19 but it won't boot into the system just goes to fastboot. The only way it seems I can get back into TWRP is to run cai bat hit T4 and TWRP will load but upon reboot it's back to the fastboot screen.
****EDIT**** It won't boot into anything but fastboot after a reboot, it's not bricked but pretty damn close. I can get it to load twrp only if I go through Cai bat but even so after I install and wipe it just boots into fastboot again. FIDDLESTICKS!!
You are following the old TWRP method Dude.
Follow the latest one and then flash a stock rom and check if the problem persists.
Unlock the bootloader too. To flash roms and permanent TWRP.
Tell us if any luck.
Factory reset from the menu also clear cache?

I got it working finally after I was able to flash boot and droid boot and then installed Barebones and it finally booted. I'm probably going to leave it alone for now.
Hi guys i flashed the 3.5.3 CM today but i decided to go back with 3.26 again, so i followed a guide that tells me to install stock recovery over twrp before i install the rom but after i fastboot flash the recovery i cannot go into the recovery anymore.
i tried to flashed the modified twrp and then boot to recovery but still wont open it.
the phone works and can go into fastboot still but it just wont access recovery
anyway to fix it? sorry if this has been discussed before. im on a mac for more info
TIA

Is your OS booting?
yea
Got the same problem here. Can boot into system and fastboot but if boot to recovery i get the oneplus logo and the bootloaderscreen and then i get a black screen where i should get my recovery. And if wanna Force shutdown my oneplus it freezes somehow. I tried everything to fix this with no result. Stock recovery doesnt work too.
Hi I just had the same problem, I have sent it back to Oneplus for repair. According to the ticket, I had a faulty motherboard, which has been replaced. If you can, do it. I only had to wait for a week before it was sent back.
Had the same problem last night. Following method nr 2 in thos thread solved it.

using fastboot to wipe the recovery partition then fastboot flashing modified twrp twice worked for me, i think the oneplus recovery image thats doing the rounds doesn't want to play nice lol
If youre phone boots in to system, download Flashify from play, flash recovery.img (you need to extract .img file). Go to recovery to check if it works. If not try other recovery.
after flashing the community build i cant boot my device in fastboot mode, it wont start the recovery or boot the system sucessfully.

If your device is unlocked, flash the recovery.img from fastboot.
You can download TWRP for oneplus 3 from their site.
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img.
And open fastboot in the path of the recovery image.
Use the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hopefully this helps

managed to fix it the other day, by flashing the modded twrp.. somehow that one worked after that i flashed the 3.26 plus the 3.26 modem ones because if i didnt, my touch screen wont work...
For me, I flashed the twrp from fastboot.
But still the 1+ logo shows when I try to boot in to recovery for 5 sec and shuts down with 2 dots of lights in the navigation button area
The normal boot is working fine. Did flash the recovery using apps like TWRP Manager, Flashify etc. It will show successfulll. But when I try to boot in to recovery, same result.
Please help
