i'm having bootloop after installing 17/02/2013 CM10.1 rom on my gsm gnex. the issues are:
1. i don't have any previous working cm10 rom saved in phone's sdcard.
2. can't get adb working, maybe because i never enabled usb debugging mode before.
fyi, i have never flashed any other roms, just CM roms. please assist..
Go into recovery and transfer a new Rom download to your phone if you have a computer. There is an option to transfer files inside recovery.

that requires adb (adb_sideload- correct me if i'm wrong).. my adb is not working.. can't boot to android.. can't find a way to enable usb debugging mode.. so no adb..
Do you have a custom recovery or experience with fastboot? Boot a recovery image via "fastboot boot recoveryname*.img", and adb is enabled.

Attached is clockworkmod touch recovery for gsm galaxy nexus, maguro. Phone in bootloader mode, open a terminal, cd to directory of fastboot and where you move this file to, type fastboot devices to verify device is connected, then "fastboot boot CWMT6023.img", without the quotes of course. This will temporarily allow you to use clockworkmod recovery, and thus adb, without having it on your device once you have selected "reboot now".
And if that didn't help, try consulting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895, since i'm thinking you haven't used fastboot in a terminal, but only know it's 'mode', and may need help with drivers.
You also might want to consider just straight out flashing cwm recovery, since YOU NEED TO MAKE BACKUPS!

sorry, i got cwm. but what does fastboot have to do with cwm? i can't use cwm to restore because files can't be sent from computer to it.
as of fastboot in terminal, it seems the phone not connected to computer. is there anything has to do with my drivers? "fastboot device" command shows <waiting for device>
I gave you that link to set up drivers more than anything else. If you already have cwm, boot to it and now you can adb push a rom.zip to your sdcard and install it, wipe caches and perhaps a factory reset [if you're changing to a different rom], OR, you can first try and wipe cache and advanced, dalvik cache to see if that fixes the bootloop.
1. Why didn't you make a backup?
2. Why didn't you make sure you know how to get out of this situation before flashing new ROMs?
3. Search as there are LOTS of tutorials on how to use adb to side load a new ROM via CWM

I know how to use the adb to sideload a new ROM, thank you.
But please read my earlier post, in order to use adb, usb debugging mode must be enabled in android settings.
Mine is disabled, and i can't enable it now.

If you think that then you have no idea on how adb works...
That is ONLY applicable when Android is running. As it's not, it's irrelevant...

ADB should work in your custom recovery regardless of USB debugging being enabled or disabled.
I can't tell you how many times I have rebooted into recovery, wiped, then realized I forgot to put a file on my sdcard that I wanted to flash. I then use adb to push the file(s) from within the recovery.
Edit: I really need to refresh prior to responding.
so i can't get adb working because of the driver? thats why i got "waiting for device" when pushing file to phone?
edit: i've installed all the required drivers, it's not my 1st time doing it. MAYBE, this computer never connected to my gnex before, as i've formatted it a few days ago. So the gnex driver was not properly installed.. Is it possible?
If that version of cm 10 is for 4.2.2., then i think you may have an issue accessing adb without first getting the rsa verification, even in recovery (but im not sure). Looks like your only other option would be to fastboot flash stock images. And of course it sounds like driver issues, especially if your fastboot is not even working. Again, that link I posted will get you back up and running. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
Hi, new here.
I do believe you guys aren't too keen on US Cellular. But I have all of the files I need. It's more of an overall sort of question.
So here's my situation:
I was being stupid and messed with the permissions on my phone, not knowing what I was doing(trying to get titanium backup to move apps to the sd card). Well, it messed up my phone. Anyways, I tried a few things to fix it and then it got stuck in a bootloop.
I am currently able to get on TWRP and fastboot. I need to get the LG Flash Tool to see my device to flash the stock KDZ but it won't see my phone without Download mode. I wanted to put my laf.img file onto my phone through fastboot to get Download mode back. My phone will show up on my computer, but when I try any ADB or Fastboot commands, it shows no devices.
Is there a way to flash my KDZ without restoring my Download mode?
Is there a way to put the laf.img onto my phone since my computer cannot see my device(through asb/fastboot)?
Is it possible to convert the laf.img into a zip and flash it through TWRP and get my download mode back?
Thanks for the help, and sorry for the long post.
UPDATE I screwed myself a little on this one. I no longer have TWRP, it goes straight to fastboot. Any Help Please?
What model do you have?

It is possible to make an update.zip to flash the laf.img to the laf partition but I don't know how. Also you can use fastboot to flash the laf.img just boot to fastboot plug your phone into your computer and run fastboot flash laf.img laf
That should do the trick. Or you could flash a rom to fix the permissions. Any US cellular compatible rom should work.
Also TWRP has a file manager that might be able to fix the permissions if you remember what they were.
Hope that this helps.
My computers don't recognize my Asus Zenfone 2 Ze551ml. I've installed the intel drivers, the asus drivers, the google android drivers. I've restarted, tried different USB ports, tried different computers, and tried different USB wires but to no avail.
I originally wanted to unroot so that I could apply OTA updates but I couldn't get into recovery, all the phone does is restart into bootloader again. All the solutions I read require me to use ADB or get into recovery and since I can't get into recovery or get any computer to recognize the phone I seem to be stuck.
I haven't updated the OTA since 2.18.40.12 version. Can anyone help me figure out how to update my phone or get my computer to recognize it?
Thanks,
Please see the following for hardware reset/wipe cache partition procedure:

Please see the following and scroll down for manual firmware update procedure:

Thanks for the reply Asus_USA,
Unfortunately, both the links you sent me don't work on my phone. For the first link (hardware reset/wipe cache partition) it asks me to go into fastboot mode, which I can do no problem, it then tells me to go into recovery mode. I can scroll down with my volume keys to the 'recovery mode' option but when I hit the power key to reboot the phone into recovery mode, it just reboots back into fastboot mode.
The second link (manual firmware update) asks me to download the update from the ASUS website, which I can do with no problem and then attach the phone to the computer and transfer the zip file to the root of my internal storage, I can't do this because the computer doesn't recognize my phone and therefore doesn't allow me to copy anything into it.
Let me know if you have any other ideas!

You can download the file directly to your phone from chrome by going to the download site on your phone. Also try setting your phone to PTP mode when it is plugged in and see if anything changes in device manager.
Or take out the sd card and copy to that, once back in phone you can then copy or move...

Tried it this way and then rebooted the phone. The phone recognized that there was an update file, and when I allowed it to install it rebooted into the Fastboot screen and then did nothing. I waited a half hour before touching the phone. When I rebooted the phone it didn't update and nothing had changed.

I tried downloading the file from online and the same thing happened as with the SD Card. When I restarted the phone it recognized that there was an update file and asked me if I wanted to install it. I clicked yes, it thought for about 30 seconds and then rebooted the phone into fastboot mode. Nothing happened after that and I had to choose the 'Reboot' option to start the phone back up; nothing had changed and the update did not work.
PTP mode doesn't seem to affect anything. My computer still doesn't recognize the phone.
I should also mention that the phone *does* charge when plugged into the computer.

Your PC won't recognize it, even in fastboot mode?
If it does you can flash a new recovery in fast boot by using the adb tools. To test attach phone in fastboot mode to pc and type in "fastboot devices".
If it detects the phone you will see your serial number come up. Then reflash the pre-rooted image. it might replace the screwed up files in your recovery.
Instead of the ADB drivers only though, use the flashtools found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3301263&d=1431011927 Say thankyou to Shakalaka... I was having trouble using ADB, you might need to update to the latest drivers, but the flashboot tools worked with no problem...
You need to put the pre-root.img file in the folder and after connecting phone via usb hold shift, rightclick inside flashtools folder and select "open command window here" from drop down menu.
Then try the fastboot devices command.
Afterwards you can either flash the recovery again back to stock or flash the pre-rooted image and see if that fixes it.
You can find stock recovery,droidboot.img files and boot.img files here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/orig-development/rom-pre-root-img-t3079590
Again, BIG thanks to Shakalaka.

Sorry for such a delayed response, I haven't logged in and checked my messages in a while. This issue was fixed for me randomly. I kept plugging my phone into my computer and it eventually recognized it (after about 60 different tries). I quickly added adb, unlocked, rooted and have been having no issues since then. I appreciate your link! Hopefully it helps others in the future.
Hello. I decided today to clean install the Pixel Experience 10 rom. I previously had a Pixel Experience 9.0 Pie. I did the following:
1. Booted into TWRP and selected Format Data
2. Everything is deleted, so it's time to flash a new rom. The guide says to go Advanced/ADB sideload and enter a command.
3. Command is not working. My phone is connected to the computer but it's not recognized. I can't even manually transfer it to the phone so i can install it via TWRP.
So i enter fastboot. Phone is recognized. When i type fastboot devices i get this:
Code:
C:\adb>fastboot devices
42abad9b fastboot
If i try to flash again a TWRP, my phone disconnects and it asks to reboot the phone by pressing a volume button. And i am stuck here. Nothing i can do. Any suggestions? I haven't done anything unusual. I am truly desperate. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi !
Did you bypass ARB with dummy.img before you flashed TWRP?
Do you use win 10, if you are change usb or use usb hub. If that doesn't help use win 7.

Go back to previous version of TWRP(latest is buggy) or use OrangeFox recovery.
But still if you lose custom recovery you need again start over and bypass ARB.
And check if your bootloader is still unlock.

I can't go to a previous version of TWRP. I can't flash any recovery via fastboot because of the problem i said at the first post. I somehow managed to boot into some previous versions of TWRP via a tool called TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE, but nothing changed. I had the same exact problems.
How will i check in my current status if bootloader is still unlocked?

Use this and post the result...
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
So you managed to get TWRP via TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE, ... when you are in TWRP flash TWRP again via TWRP or better flash OrangeFox Recovery(use SD CARD or adb push - for more info google it for adb commands), than reboot it directly into recovery again by TWRP option reboot to recovery... and now you can flash your ROM.
So make it simple
1st time you'll boot in TWRP by TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE,
than you'll flash recovery via TWRP and make it permanent,
Than you'll directly reboot to recovery via TWRP,
now you can wipe and flash your ROM.
Happy ending :highfive:

Hi it seems like you've deleted the OS on your phone ( not sure though) but it seems like that cause I've faced the same issue with my Motorola phones, but anyway here's what you should try :-
1) boot into recovery mode while connected to pc.
2) now your phone's internal storage will be shown on PC, just copy the ROM that you want to install to the internal storage of your device. Now flash this ROM using the recovery.

Theres something wrong with the partitions, the phone bootloops even going into recovery
It only goes to bootloader mode where you can see phone info and such. Fastboot works in bootloader mode thru adb but ive tried flashing different recoveries it doesnt work.

Can you post some pictures of your phone, when in recovery mode, and does your phone's internal storage shows up when connected to computer in recovery mode.
If you don't have a recovery installed then download the TWRP or ORANGE FOX RECOVERY and flash it on your Android using the adb and fastboot commands.
