[Q] infinite bootloop after custom recovery.. - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

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

[Q] Stuck on Google boot Logo

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

Boot loop issue

Hey guys, I just recently got some parts for my old One X to start playing with it again (bored with ios). I was running an older version of ViperXL and wanted to get lollipop so my goal was to put CM12.0 on my phone. My recovery was twrp but a version that was older so I had to update it. The in app update wasn't working so I updated cwm instead. When I did this I tried to boot to recovery and it would attempt to go to recovery but then boot back to the os.
Then I was trying to flash the recovery using fastboot which resulted in the same problem. Somewhere in there I flash the recovery.img as my boot image (sudo fastboot flash boot recovery.img) This made my phone repeatedly try to boot into recovery. I tried flashing new ViperXL boot.img as well as a couple others but none let me get into my os again. Now it is just a bootloop trying to start my phone up.
When I try flashing a .zip I get the error 'FAILED (remote: not allowed)'. Flashing recovery and boot images work though.
I've tried a lot and done a lot of searching but nothing can get me into recovery or even out of any sort of bootloop.
I'm using Ubuntu and my phone is S-On if that means anything.
Thanks!
Try restoring any backups of old roms from the recovery. Make sure Recovery is written properly in recovery partition. If this works fine , the appropriate boot.img shud be automatically flashed , i guess.
If u dont have a backup , try finding another one x user using a custom recovery, create a backup from his mobile and copy it to ur sd card by mounting it thru recovery and restore it.
If it doesnt work , wipe all the partitions - System , cache, boot and recovery.. then try flashing a Recovery and then a Boot.img and a rom.
I havent faced such a situation. Just my suggestions as no experts have responded.
Cheers if u have already sorted it out !!!

Recovery mode is'nt working anymore!! NEED HELP !!

Hi, I'm new to android rooting and flashing stuffs. I have Asus Zenfone 2 16gb version.
My frnd rooted my device and installed superSU (something like that) but the xmod app was not working, so my frnd gave me this Kingo root apk he told me that it will work. so I installed that kongo root..it says some files needed to be fix, so I presses ok..after the prosecco is done, I reboot my phone..but it stuck in loading. after that I'm finding solution to boot it back normally. I tried flashing new firmware which I downloaded from the asus website, but It failed in 48%, some one told me to flash TWRP recovery, so I flash TWRP recovery from adb sideload, after that I was not be able to go in recovery mode. I press for recovery mode...my phone restarts and again loads the fastboot or bootloader screen. after that I tried to flash other recovery image. but still I cant go in recovery mode. PLEASE HELP!!
You should not flash custom recovery with a lock bootloader. Unlock your bootloader first.
You dont sideload a recovery img. Go to bootloader, then enter this adb command
fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery image) .img
PS. Xmod dont work on intel based android processor. Correct me if Im wrong, Ive read that a long time ago.

How To Flash Custom Recovery for Androidone

So, I was attempting to root my phone(CanvasA1- 4GB) today running stock android marshmallow(6.0.1) , I successfully unlocked the boot loader in fastboot using adb, after which I flashed TWRP recovery, Which was successful but then, When I rebooted into recovery, I saw my old stock google's recovery running , I tried 2-3 more times flashing the recovery in fastboot but the probem was still the same :crying:. Then I came to know that we have to flash a special type of boot img of some 17.5mb approx, When I attempted to flash this "boot" image, I received an error saying file size too large, Hence I couldn't flash it, I am still running the stock recovery, With my bootloader unlocked, I need to root my phone, Please help someone, Thanks in advance .

Same here. I unlocked the bootloader successfully and flashed TWRP recovery. But it shows system/default recovery only. Now stuck in bootloop.
Tried clearing cache/date etc. nothing worked. Don't know what to do.

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
