[Q] Nexus 7 2013 Stuck with two errors - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hello guys,
I had my Nexus 7 2013 (Wi-fi) for almost an year running stock rom and I decided to install CM12+ElementalX. It was all good untill yesterday when I returned it back to stock 5.0.2. When i started the tablet a message popped about 5.1 update and I started the update, but in the middle of the process it said "ERROR". I rebooted the device and now its stuck on the screen where you have to choose your language, with two errors constantly popping up - "PHONE HAS STOPPED WORKING" and "NFC Service has stopped working". I press OK like mad trying to skip some of the steps,but the "touch and go" (i think thats the name) is as far as i can go.
Is there any way I can flash the stock 5.1 without USB Debug Mode. There is no way i can get in the tablet's menu. I also saw some of the othere topics with this kind of problems, but i didn't find the answer.

You don't need USB Debugging to flash the factory images... use fastboot.

I have installed ADB i Android SDK. Everythink is working fine on my Nexus 5 , but i cant do anything with my Nexus 7 which is now constantly rebooting after i managed to go through all the starting steps , when it started to install my 36 apps it rebooted by itself and now it keeps doing it.

i am having similar issue. i have tried the root tool several times with no success. ive been rooting devices since the samsung moment and i cannot get this tablet going at all. with the root tool i am able to flash twrp recovery, but for some reason it will not mount to put a rom on the internal memory. i have even tried pushing a stock rooted rom through adb fastboot and it just hangs. what else can i possibly do? could it be hardware related? this all happened after i was prompted for the latest 5.1.1 update. any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. tia

[Q] Help! - Rooted Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML) bricked after OTA accidently

followed a tutorial (Cnncted's youtube clip - How to root the ASUS ZenFone 2 ) to root
Accidentally (very stupid) pressed the update option when an OTA update showed up yesterday (Jul 8 2015), and after that the phone won't start properly - stopped at in search of incredible...
No luck with trying to boot into recovery mode (power + volume up). It just vibrates once and the screen is black. Trying to flash recovery image with ADB and flashtool etc, but the MTP usb connection failed. If I connect it to the PC using the USB cable and then press the power button to turn it on (stuck in that ..."incredible" screen), device manager shows the Z200AD name with a yellow exclamation mark beside, and Asus ZenUI software will automatically start. But it's not really recognized by the PC.
So...if you have any suggestions for me to try, please let me know and that would be greatly appreciated!
Harry
p.s. This is a US version, so the it's the WW sku?
Same problem here. I have a rooted 551ML and on July 6th I received an OTA update. I installed it and I'm stuck in boot loop. I have hundreds of family pictures in the internal memory.
The good news is that I have access to boot loader and recovery.
I could not find any custom recovery for Zenfone 2. They are not out yet, right? Is there any way to copy the internal memory of the phone (that doesnt load the OS) to the SD card? Or to paste a file img.boot taken from a downloaded official rom and copy it over the corrupted one on the phone's memory?
If you can access the bootloader, you can do this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-to-apply-ota-bootloop-rooted-zf2-t3127835
Btw, there is a custom recovery out there (TWRP, check the Development section), but you will need an unlocked bootloader to use it in your state (I think).
US version is the WW SKU btw. Hope this helps.

Joel, thanks a lot! I will give it a try.
fingers and toes crossed...
I faced this problem too. All I did was to flash the boot.img of my version using fastboot,
Then I flashed the firmware, without factory reset I started the phone.
I was continiously getting an error "com.android.process has stopped". Ignoring that, I just backed up my whole data. Did a factory reset. Updated
Boom!! Everything was normal... I hope this helps
Just a quick update - followed the method in the link that Joel referred to, and everything worked beautifully. I did get two error messages like “the contact stopped working..." “The process android.process.acore has stopped working.” I fixed this problem by clearing the data/cache from the "contact" app, and that did the trick without a factory reset etc.
I unrooted the device using SuperSU. The fastboot screen, however, still shows a random serial number 0123456789ABCDEF. Is there a way to revert it back to the real one? I do see the real one from settings - about - status.

Isn't everyone serial number the same? mine is.
This is something that I am not sure of. Yours has been rooted as well?
I would like to know what the fastboot screen looks like before rooting.

Pretty sure rooting didn't affect my fastboot screen at all.
actually i rooted my zenfone 2 and there was an OTA and i tried to install it without un-rooting my phone. the phone would not turn on and it gets stuck in the boot animation.
the phone wasn't detected by the ADB in my pc so i thought of installing some custom recovery, thought that could help.
i tried installing TWRP but i did not unlock the bootloader and now i am not able to enter in recovery mode either, everytime i try to get in the recovery modethe phone restarts and goes to fastboot mode.
please help.

I was having a similar issue where adb wouldn't recognize my phone but fastboot was detecting it. What I ended up doing was grabbing the latest stock firmware zip from asus, transferring it to my external sd card via adapter and renamed it to MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip. Then go into fastboot (restart with volume up key) and proceed to recovery. It should automatically update your system from there. The only bummer is having to re-configure everything.

Soft bricked zenfone 2. Need help. Need USB Debugging

I have a rooted zenfone 2. I checked for an update. Not knowing the risks of updating system while rooted, I installed the update, and now my phone is stuck on the boot animation screen. It is stuck on "Asus In search of incredible" screen with the turning gear. I can access fast boot mode and recovery mode, but can't start the phone. My phone has Android system recovery installed, not ClockworkMod or TWRP. I tried to install a different recovery, but my PC doesn't read the phone. I thought that wiping the data and cache will help, but didn't. Help me. I'm a 15 year old noob. My parents will kill me!! Also, I haven't tried to install any ROM's on it. So that's out of the picture.
And neither adb, not fastboot can detect the phone.
My phone is rooted, but the bootloader is not unlocked. I was going to unlock it, but thought of backing data up first. I was trying to find the backup app, but accidentally tapped on system update app. I thought there wouldn't be any harm in checking for an update... Apparently their was a lot of harm.
I also tried installing twrp recovery, but it gets stuck on "Waiting for device"
I'm in dire need of help.
I just need to find a way to switch USB debugging on...... That'll fix all my problems
thanks in advance.
I have the Z008 model, NOT the Z00A.

Bootloop after Installing Nethunter 2.0 (Nexus 7 2013 Wifi)

Hello everybody,
i hope the xdadevs can help me with my problem.
Since two Days i try to recover my Nexus 7 form a bootloop.
A week ago i flashed Kali Nethunter 2.0 via TWRP on my Device (Nexus 7 2003 Wifi) - Everything worked fine till yesterday.
My device run out of energy so i loaded it and startet it shortly after that.
Then i regognized the bootloop. I tried to restart the device but it had no effect.
After that i tried to boot into the Recovery Mode with TWRP to restore my working backup. But it got stucked on the loading screen of TWRP too.
Now i tried to recover some images and fix the problem with some manuals which seemed promising. - no success
After a while i did something incredible stupid and locked my bootloader again (i wanted to try to lock and unlock it since some tools couldnt flash the stock rom).
The situation right now:
I cant boot up normaly: Stuck while "Google" is displayed
I cant boot in Recovery Mode (TWRP): Stuck on the blue TWRP Logo
If i try to use the Skipsoft Toolkit or something else it fails - or do i miss something
Recover the Stock rom by using the "flash-all.bat" fails because of this (pastebin. c0m/ie0dBv1D). I used the stock rom of Android 4.4.4(razor-ktu84p) because every other stockrom says this (pastebin. c0m/Dz31k8qu).
I wonder why the stock rom needs to get the bootloader unlocked... ive red so much about it that it just works out of the box..... am i doing something wrong ?
If i try to unlock again, the selection screen on the tablet shows up. I choose yes and hit the Power button. At the console the output <bootloader> erasing userdata" shows up and "freezes?!"... nothing happens afterwards.
Thats about it and this is where i am stuck. I would really appreciate if someone could help me ! I would even reward or spend some money on help.
I try to fix it meanwhile and update this post if something new happens.
I had to alternate the links because im a new member, im sorry for that !
Thanks in advanced and sorry for the spelling

Yeah i tried it but it couldnt fix my problems. Returning to Stock Rom will always tell me that i need the bootloader unlocked... and i cant unlock it.
My PC and Linux Notebook where recognizing before it was bricked. Now it only gets detected in fastboot because it wont start anymore.

Phone no longer bricked (yay!), but not fastboot

The backstory: I have no experience with rooting and or flashing custom ROMs. Prior to today my ze551ml was completely stock, running on the official android M update. I had a need to do a factory reset, but the phone would simply reboot. I assumed this was a problem with the update so I download and attempted to install the downgrade to l. Naturally it crashed mid downgrade and I thought it to be bricked. So, I started Googling and realized I was able to get into fastboot mode, but not recovery. Following a guide I located I attempted to flash the preroot ROM located at the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/rom-pre-root-img-t3079590
Well, it appeared to have worked, but now the phone refused to boot at all after being turned off. So, more Googling and I proceeded to follow the full unbricking guide below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/thead-bricked-phone-updating-to-mm-tips-t3452785
Partway through step 1.3 the phone restarted itself and booted right up into Android L! Success I thought to myself, but it was not to be. I proceeded to download the FOTA L update and it downloaded fine, but when I clicked to install it simply rebooted the phone. Tried a couple of other times with the same result. I realized that Supersu was installed so I did the full unroot assuming that was the problem, but to no avail. It appears that the updates can't install because the phone is incapable of entering fastboot or recover mode. Anytime I attempt to enter fastboot via hard key or through adb the phone hangs on the ASUS logo. Adb detects the phone when it's connected via USB, but of course fastboot can't because I can't get it into fastboot mode at all.
Any tips on how to get fastboot operational again so I can start applying updates again? Every guide I've located has started with "boot into fastboot/recovery" which simply isn't an option. Any help is appreciated.
Edit: Well, I think I've reached the end of the internet trying to google for a solution. The phone works, but it looks like it's stuck on build 2.13.40.13 until the end of its life. If anybody has any ideas I'm still hoping for a solution, but I can't find anything describing how to restore fastboot if the OS is intact.

You have to use full unbrick method(xfstk + raw) to restore ur device fully
xfstk will restore ur fastboot image

Thanks for the response. I've tried this a dozen times, but unfortunately (this is going to sound weird) since it's not completely bricked it is only detected as Moorefield for a few seconds when started. This allows the xfstk tool to detect it and begin the download, but not long enough to complete the process so it times out. The only development access I have to the phone now is via adb, but since I don't have root I'm very limited in what I can do via command line. Since I can't access fastboot I can't achieve root. It's just a comedy of errors now.

seems like you did not install droidboot.bin correctly... only way is use xFSTK again.i have updated the link to latest raw firmware 2.20.40.194 and use the same guide and commands..

The problem is that it's only recognized as Moorefield for a few seconds which isn't enough time for xFSTK to complete the install. Do you know of a way to force the device to stay connected as Moorefield?

Plug the phone to the PC, be sure the phone is completely off and then hold power + vol- for a few seconds. You must see the "Moorefield" driver permanent in the device manager.
Btw... I got the same problem (four lines, not bootloader, not OS; xFSTK FW+OS failed) and I'm stuck in this step :/

I've tried this many times, but it only shows Moorefield for a few seconds. I'm assuming this is because it has a fully operational OS so it doesn't stay in the generic USB device mode.
EDIT: I misread your original post. Holding power and volume DOWN does keep connect it in Moorefield. Thanks so much for that. The problem now is that once xFSTK gets to downloading the OS it reboots the phone which takes it out of USB mode and disconnects the tool. I'm still stuck where I was before, but that's a little progress. Any other thoughts?
New update. I'm able to get to the point of loading the OS from xFSTK by skipping the FW part, however it continuously fails. My assumption is because it can't overwrite the existing OS. Any other ideas?

Kidnova, reading this post I could fixed my problem. The "issue" was in the xFSTK where you put the flag (0x800000807). A guy on the threat said to put "0x80000807" instead of "0x800000807" (note that there is "0" from difference).
"those who are not able to keep device connected. take care of few steps
1. in xFSTK option menu change the flag override value to 0x80000807 not 0x800000807 ( don't forget to click gp value over ride)
2. while connecting to xFSTK attach usb to computer. hold power button for 20 seconds to make sure it power downs completely. then hold the power button down and click power button. wait till device vibrate or computer makes detection sound. leave power button but keep holding the volume button for few seconds"

[REQ] Help: bootloop after 7.1.1 beta OTA and cannot enter recovery mode

I've been watching several threads for the last few days, and have not seen this exact issue. I would greatly appreciate some help.
Device:
- Nexus 5X LGH790 32GB
- Stock bootloader / fastboot
- Never unlocked / rooted / etc.
The only advanced thing I've done is join the beta program a few months ago to get 7.0 early. Got that without any issue.
Issue:
I received the 7.1.1 OTA on the day it came out. Installed with no problems. The next day, the phone just froze in the middle of regular use. After about 15 seconds, it started boot looping to the Google splash screen. I can hold volume-down to enter fastboot, but when I select recovery mode, it just starts looping again. Pretty much all I could do was power it off. I did find out by accident that if I left it looping for long enough, sometimes it actually loaded normally (I even saw beta program warning/notice). But when I tried using it for more than a minute, it would freeze, reboot, and loop again.
What I've already tried:
- I tried using the WugFresh NRT fix softbrick method. I was able to quickly turn on debugging one of the times that I left it to loop. But when NRT sent a reboot the phone, it threw it back into the loop and NRT stopped recognizing the device.
- I tried to follow the unbrick procedure using a TOT file in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/tutorial-how-unbricked-nexus-5x-16gb-t3481766 But even after using LGUP, I still cannot even get into recovery mode.
- I filed a bug in the AOSP here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=225802.
I'm at a loss here. On another thread, a member suggested this type of loop was a hardware/solder joint issue. I suppose that's possible... but man, what a coincidence that would be! Just now after the OTA the hardware fails? Any other thoughts? I'm pretty new to a lot of the terms/methods here, so maybe I missed something.
Thanks, DCK.
Update: I tried using LGUP again. The phone still gets stuck on the Google screen then boot loops.
Now, however, I am able to get into recovery mode consistently. Other threads have suggested doing an OTA sideload at this point. But I cannot seem to get my device recognized. The NRT shows no ADB devices connected. So I'm still stuck. Is there another way to try sideload?

Try fastboot/bootloader mode and fastboot flash the OTA manually.
Update 2: Seems like all the other things I tried over the last few days have caused various unofficial USB drivers to be installed. I've tried uninstalling most of them. I downloaded the google USB driver from latest SDK. But my 5X is still recognized as a Kedacom device when it is sitting at FastBoot.
However, I must have made some progress because I was able to start the sideload process. Unfortunately, I am now stuck on yet another error. The phone hangs at "verifying update package" and then after about 2 minutes... it reboots itself and starts looping again!
I thought I had it. So close. Now I want to throw the phone. Going to sleep, but would be grateful for any other suggestions in the morning.
- DCK
use nrt to erase all partitions, then download 7.1 factory image, unzip and flash one by one the partitions.

Just now after the OTA the hardware fails? Any other thoughts? I'm pretty new to a lot of the terms/methods here, so maybe I missed something.
Thanks, DCK.

Sounds like the boot loop issue many people have been having (the hardware/solder issue). It happened to me a few weeks ago after upgrading to Android 7.0. I got a replacement device from google.
If you're bootloader is locked, NRT or any other method to flash the factory image is not going to work. The only suggestion I have is to un-enroll in the beta program and hope your device will boot long enough to flash the ota Google will send the device to get back to 7.0. Note, this will wipe your device.

Same problem here. It can't be recognized after I reboot to fastboot. So I can't flash anything.
If the device isn't recognized try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69273414&postcount=33. It's worked for a few of us with the same problem

Enter stock recovery then flash the full ota via adb sideload
