Hi,
Try this toolkit; toolkit will help you flash stock rom / unlock / boot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614827
Or else you can always try to flash stock images.
Download a ROM boot into recovery and adb push to /sdcard flash profit. Or you can also mount the SD card in twrp. You're really not in a sticky situation you should be able to fix this in little time.
Another easy way is if you have USB OTG cable(very cheap... Got mine for $4) you can throw a ROM&gapps zip onto flash drive and should be able to flash via recovery from that.
No need to freak out buddy, whether you wanna setup SDK on ya PC to easily use fastboot & adb to restore device or even push/sideload zips, or use toolkit, there is tons if options.
Did you wipe ALL /data im guessing? Instead of factory reset which leaves your /sdcard(aka /data/media) untouched? And also wiped /system?
I've been there. Haha many of us prolly have. You'll be up and running again in no time! Dont fret!

Also, I'd be happy to help you via private messages with step by step if you absolutely need it. There are a few very well written stickies in this forum that can help also that have step by step in them

Is 4ext even available for Gnex?
Why go thru that when you can just sideload right now?
i ran into this issue again as well. I have nandroids on my phone, but when I wiped data, the rom I was going to flash didn't get put on from my computer. I sideloaded through adb to /data/media/0 and it pushed fine, but still won't show up in my install section of TWRP, only the file manager in advanced. Anyone else have problems sideloading with TWRP?

Why bother pushing it first? Isn't there a dedicated sideload option in the Advanced section of TWRP?

I never even noticed that. But how does the sideload work? When I click on it, it asks if I want to wipe either or both dalvik and cache, and says swipe to start sideload. after you swipe you just use adb sideload filename.zip and that's it?

Yup. First start the sideload on your phone, then connect it to a computer with working adb (should be easy). After that, open a command prompt window and execute "adb sideload your-rom-name-and-position.zip". Your ROM should then be pushed to the root of storage and flashed.

Hey! As the title says, is that possible? I have the backup recovery img file (Iaf.img), but im not sure how to use it without fastboot (cant use it since fastboot cant recognize my phone).
In TWRP:
Terminal command?
ADB sideload?
Something else? If so, how?
Thanks for answer!
Just run the commands in terminal on device to restore..

In terminal, that's it? Nothing else? If I put the Iaf.img at external SD. Just want to be 100% sure.
Thanks for help!

"dd cant open /storage/external_SD/stock-Iaf.img" no such file or directory", but its there...And i opened terminal under external_SD map.
So, there is no way at all to get back to stock completely? I dont care if that means i need to wipe everything on my phone etc, I just want it completely stock again. :/
Fastboot still not working. And still get the no such file or directory when using the commands above.

If you flash back with the recovery tool it will restore everything. It had saved my D850 many times so far.

Recovery tool? I may know what you mean but not sure. Guess there is a guide somewhere?
Fastboot seems to work BTW now. Someone said I could use fastboot flash flash laf.IMG, will try that when I'm home but if that's not working I would love another solution.
Thanks for helping!

You need to download and extract asus drivers. Sounds like your using Windows OS. You need to go into to device manager and find the device that is unknown and update the driver from the extracted folder. You phone must be attached and in recovery, press apply adb sideload. Then update the driver. If your os is not recognizing your device try another cable. LG has the best cables. If your using linux I wrote instructions on how to install drivers for the fastboot and adb sideload recovery

You are not bricked.
In order to update to the new OTA you need to go back to fully stock LCB43B image. That means flashing stock boot, recovery and system. BUT unfortunately there's a problem when trying to flash the stock system.img in bootloader. So you have to boot into TWRP, use adb push to get the system.img file onto your internal memory and then flash it using adb shell commands. Use this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=63173308
Then reboot to bootloader and flash the stock recovery and boot files.
Next, download the OTA and reboot into stock recovery (not TWRP) in order to update using adb sideboard. Use the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=65607393
Hit thanks if this has helped.

No.
Boot to bootloader and type "fastboot flash system system.img"
You should not be in recovery trying to fastboot flash. It will not work.
Latest SDK is fine on Windows 10. Make sure you use the fastboot and ADB from the latest SDK.

I was stuck for last 12 hours and watch was in bootloop. i tried flashin again and agin . Scott i love you :laugh:
i think it was that i was using old adb and fastboot. the latest ones helped. Also there is no need to flash twrp. Even if you get file sparce issue.
Salute to You :good::good::good:
Now i am back to LCB43B will try to update to 1.4 via stock recovery now
Yeah, the ADB / Fastboot changed with Lolipop. Anything pre-lolipop will give issues.
I've never flashed anything onto my watch, but yesterday after recharging the battery after it going dead, I get stuck at the 4 dots boot animation. I'm able to reboot the watch, and even get into the normal fastboot menu, but clearing cache, data, and resetting to default doesn't help. I'm really hoping what you guys are doing will fix the trick for me. I simply want to return the watch to stock, but I'm seeing conflicting reports on how to proceed with this.
I've downloaded the Android SDK, but have never used it before. I keep hearing things about adb, and flashing system.img using the latest fastboot - I don't know where to find either of these or how to use them. Would you awesome people mind doing a little hand holding with me and give me a bit of detail on how to proceed with the solution from C3C076?
EDIT: So I think I figured it out myself, albiet with the wisdom gained from you awesome folk. I used fastboot to push the 6.0.1 boot and system images from this thread, and things seem back to normal. I haven't rebooted the watch yet, since I didn't load the 6.0.1 recovery image (the only part of the watch that had worked since the problem started), and I'm not sure if I'm going to have the problem reoccur once it does reboot. If anyone has insight on how to best proceed given the steps I've taken so far, it'd be greatly appreciated.

If fastboot flashing boot and system images went well, you can safely reboot your watch. First boot might take a while but it should boot OK.

This DUDE RIGHT HERE. Did it. This was the missing piece. My fastboot files simply weren't good enough. x!!
Android SDK Platform Tools did the trick for me.
Hey guys so today I decided to decrypt my phone.I copied my files to my PC, I rebooted to bootloader and used the command "fastboot format userdata" .Now my phone bootloops when trying to boot it up. I can acces TWRP but MTP doesnt work.I have Oneplus drivers installed, I tried repeating the same command to see if the problem will go away.I have a TWRP backup on my PC,but I cannot transfer files .I also have a copy of Dirty Unicorns.Should I try to sideload it?Please help me, it's been a while since I used root and ... Thank you!
Edit.I wiped cache,ART and data and rebooted.Same thing. I reflashed TWRP , but still MTP won't work...
i was having the same thing the other day try to sideload a rom and then you transfer your backup and here you go

There's a whole unbrick guide here on XDA including the Qualcom tools to directly flash the partitions back. That should do the job.
@Chainfire I think I found my problem.I had systemless root, suhide and I tried decrypting my Oneplus 3.The result-bootloop.I am currently flashing stock.You might want to add this in OP of suhide.Cheers
Thank you guys I fixed it .Stock recovery--Oxygen os sideloaded.The problem was Suhide ( @Chainfire)
