Hi. Ive just purchased a 2013 nexus 7 and wanted to install the stock lollipop build.
Ive followed the instructions to install according to the nexus dev page but I get the following error:-
C:\adb>flash-all.bat
sending 'bootloader' (3911 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.154s]
writing 'bootloader'...
OKAY [ 1.443s]

failed to allocate 818480772 bytes
error: update package missing system.img
Press any key to exit...
There are not any boot.sig or recovery.sig contained within the zip file I downloaded from Google.
Can someone please advise what I'm doing wrong?
Cheers:fingers-crossed:
Try flashing the img files manually. Not sure what you did to end up with a missing system.img file, or why it's missing.

Thanks buddy. That worked. I originally followed the instructions on the Google nexus developer site where the films were. Week do it manually from now on.

And then come back asking for help about fastboot and adb. Using fastboot and adb manually should come before using any toolkit.

Hey guys,
Had a quick question that I hope somebody here can answer.
Want to update the baseband to the newest version contained in the .90 update but I'm running CM12. Obviously I don't want to go through the hassle of reflashing CM12, so want to flash the baseband through recovery/adb/fastboot if possible.
I understand that the baseband is in the ifwi.zip file within the update, and that within this zip are a few files in regards to each ZF2 model. The two files of importance are the ifwi*.bin and dnx*.bin files. From some searching it seems that these can be flashed through fastboot.
My questions are:
Which one is modem/baseband and which one is bootloader?
Can one be flashed without the other?
Cheers guys
So I did the following with the files from ifwi.zip
fastboot flash dnx dnx*ze551ml.bin
fastboot flash ifwi ifwi*ze551ml..bin
fastboot reboot-bootloader

The operation completed successfully, bootloader still unlocked and ROM still intact.
Doesn't look like baseband was updated though. Might be located elsewhere?
I thought CRPalmer included the binary updates in the latest CM. I have a baseband version of 1535_5.0.37.1_0831
What is the latest?

What hassle? It takes about 5 minutes tops to download and dirty flash the latest CM build. You don't even need to connect to a PC - DL the file from the thread, reboot into TWRP, wipe cache/dalvik (from the advanced wipe menu, not sure wiping is really necessary but I always do), flash the CM build, reboot. Easy.

file you are looking is in /vendor/firmware/telephony/*.fls

You are correct. I did ask in the thread whether this was the case and nobody answered, so I went to figure it out for myself.
Bootloader is updated by the ifwi files but not baseband. Baseband is part of the blob files comes with the ROM.
I am so used to devices having a separate baseband (Nexus, SGS etc) that it carried over to this phone - hence the thread.

I am aware of that, I do it every day I was thinking I might have needed to flash the stock ROM to update the baseband - of which I haven't seen a way to flash from TWRP recovery yet. Now aware this isn't the case as the baseband files are part of the blob files that are integrated into the ROM.

Also make sure that you're running it for the right model.

Try running as administrator. I'm not sure though.

I am running as an admin. So it looks like I Cait use fastboot at all, all commands show the same permission denied error.

and your phone's bootloader is unlocked? i think this is one of the most important thing if you wanna chenge baseband
Bootloader unlocked. I've installed TWRP previously so I'm not sure why this problem popped up all of a sudden.
Question, if I install the stock recovery and reinstall the stock rom with via adb sideload, will that update the modem?
Yumms, you've probably found out the hard way by now, but I believe it will

This was back from 2016, I believe updating was the fix.
Sorry for the lousy answer, I can't remember that far back.

Hi,
I have a Z00A and it just got back from RMA. It returned with MM, so I want to install twrp and Lineage. I have read many tutorials on unlocking the BL but they all seem to refer to Lolipop.
I read somewhere that to unlock the MM BL, you must downgrade do lolipop. Is this the current method of unlocking the BL?
I tried to to install twrp in fastboot, but it seems that my device is not recognized by my computer in fastboot (I'm running Fedora Linux), maybe because it is with the locked BL.
Any help is much appreciated.
Just a follow up. I tried to flash the recovery:
bash-4.3$ sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-Z00A.img

You need to downgrade the ROM to Stock Marshmallow using QPST/QFIL and then unlock the bootloader.
I got this info from someone who had the exact same issue.
