Need some help please !
First of all I'm stuck in bootloop with my nexus 7 2013 (not unlocked). So I pluged my N7 in my computer (windows 7) to flash the Rom. I also have a problem with the driver when I connect my N7 to the computer and I get the message (MTP device failed ). So I've tried to install manually new drivers from Google but it says that my drivers are up to date ??? Now It seems that it's impossible to flash my N7 if my computer doesn't recognize my device.
What is the best thing to do now
thanks in advance

Well, it looks like you have a couple of things going on. I can't remember how I got windoze to recognize the n7, but it had something to do with deleting the driver then plugging the n7 back in and letting it install the driver again. I remember I had to play around with the thing for a little while. Trying to update the driver wouldn't work for me either. As, far as the bootloop, you could try this one click tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2381582 Finally, you could try wugfresh's toolkit if you want to take the lazy route. It actually works pretty well. It might even help with that driver issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389107 you don't use it to install a rom, but you do need to install a custom recovery and the toolkit could help with things like that. I personally use the toolkit to return a tablet or phone back to factory condition, lock the bootloader, etc...
You could also try to do a factory reset from the stock recovery. That fixed a boot loop for me after unlocking my bootloader.
Problem solved
I finally contacted Google Canada Monday morning and spoke with with a tech. Wow...very impressed by the service and my problems are now solved. First we went to Recovery mode ( Power and volume down) in that mode you then press again power and volume up and release at the same time. Then,from that menu you can now swipe all data and it solves the Bootloop problem. Finally I reinstalled all my app and back to normal. I pluged my N7 to my computer and now no more driver problem....
Thanks

That's what I was referring to in my post, sorry for not giving a more detailed explanation.
Glad to hear you that you had a good experience with Google support and that you solved your problem. :good:
Thanks for giving feedback and have lots of fun with your N7!
Hello!
I'm stuck in a loop boot too. I flashed without wiping... I try to boot in recovery mode but it's impossible. The combination vol up, down and power doesn't work. It tries to boot as usual so starts in a loop again.

Let me get this straight....are you trying to hold volume up & down at the same time? If so, you cannot please both volumes at the same time. Also, to boot into the bootloader (same as fastboot, not recovery) is power + volume down. The easiest way to do this is to hold volume down, then press and hold the power button. If the tab was on, and the screen goes black, let go of the power button, but keep holding the volume down button. It should boot into the bootloader soon enough.
1. Push volume up and power button for 5 seconds then release the power button.
2. Do a complete wipe of the system and reinstall the system.zip again and reboot.
If it doesnt load the recovery do this.:
1. Hold volume down and power button for 5 sec. Release the power button and volume once you enter the download screen.
2. Use odin in your Pc to install the rom you want or stock rom.
(3. If you installed stock rom go back to the steps I wrote at the top and flash a new rom)
Remember that you need to be rooted.
OK so I was trying with the wrong combination.
With both vol up/down + power worked.
I restored and it's up and running again.
Thanks!

This is a longshot but since you dont have warranty you might give it a try.
Remove the back of the phone (there are tutorials on youtube for "disassembling ascend P6") and then remove the battery inside. Afterwards connect the phone to your ac charger, and retry to force update (power button while holding vol + and - buttons).
I really dont know if this works, but when i bricked my other huawei phone (u8800) where the battery was removable I managed to restore it using the aforementioned method..
Best of luck!
I had same problem last week, press volume up/down when phone boot. and keep pressing those buttons.
Dosnt work every time.. download firmware first and add it to external sd/dload folder..
i think i lost my stock recovery, i dont know why but i think that happened, but can anyone tell if the loss of the recovery will lead to the failure of force update? (in my case it won't start at all just stuck at logo)
if that happened i might try reflashing stock recovery with fastboot
ok i tried to flash stock recovery via fastboot, but the problem is my pc only reads my device when i connect it to it then hold power and vol - buttons till it reboots, then my pc reads it as an adb interface but it shows that it failed to install device drivers although i already installed the usb drivers and updated google usb drivers from android sdk, and everytime i try to flash recovery via adb (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) it stuck with waiting for device
it seems its not recognized properly, am i hard bricked? :crying:
same problem with ascend mate
hi,
I have the same exact problem with my ascend mate mt1. its always stuck to ascend logo. when I press power button and hold cannot turn off. always turn on by itself. if I press volume down and power button, my computer can recognize it as fastboot. drivers can install no problem. can see the device when I type fastboot devices. when I try to install recovery with fastboot I always get that error says "not allowed". tried sd card update with press volume up + down no luck, also tried it with removing the battery but same. I think its hard bricked or something if you find a solution please let me know.
Thanks a lot !

i managed to get my pc to read my device properly (uninstalled usb drivers and reinstalled then voilla ) then flashed stock recovery via fastboot and the device booted just fine, however i cant connect to my network now although my phone sees it :crying:
anyway, make sure ur device is properly working with fastboot, just type fastboot devices in cmd and u should see some letters or numbers
also did u tried different recoveries it may be bad recovery file
Thanks
thanks for the fast reply. when I connected via fastboot its doesn't shows the serial numbers. its shows like question mark instead of serial number. I cannot find the stock recovery file , I only tried with twrp recovery and it gave the that message " Not allowed". I think I don't have driver issue but I will try though.

Hello Guys
After doing deep search on this forum and try several unsuccessful solutions (recover mode, fast boot...). I decide to create new thread.:angel:
Symptom : A boot loop on Android Upgrade (There are 7 updates to apply).
I think, I know the cause but every solution found on this forum didn't succeed.
I tried to access recevey mode ( Power+Up, then release up ). --> When I release Up after vibration, I don't enter into recovery mode.
I tried to access my phone through fastboot or adb but, I have following message : "Wait for device". No detection so
Here is what I have done to be in this situation :
I've rooted my phone (thanks to forum explanations) --> No Problem
Installed this bull**** app "App Master" to freeze or put bloatware into trash (recoverable)
Everything was ok, since I noticed "Asus Start Manager" needed to update but was not compatible with my device. Strange isn'it.
So I've undertaken to restore frozen and removed app from app master. It asked me to restart and then, my 7 restored app seems to involve a big mess.
And now I can't Boot. NOte that android upgrade wants to suprisingly update 7 optimisations.
My next idea is to acces directly internal storage to remove 7 apk provoking boot loop.
Do you have better idea because if I remove internal storage, wararnty will be canceled and in addition I have no guaranty I'll able to read it.:crying:
Further more I hesitate to send it to vender since my device is rooted. They will answer it's my fault, and it's true sic !
As you understand I 'm quite desperate . IF someone can help me I'd be so grateful.
Thanks everybody and sorry for my english

Unfortunatly no.
bouhhh !!
Try to see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/unbricking-research-unbricking-method-t3162848
Ok i'll try it after work this evening.
I have nothing to loose so....
can u let me know. I failed with it.
U should have been able to access the boot loader at least.
while pressing and holding the volume up button , press and hold the power button until the set vibrates.
just when u feel the vibration RELEASE THE POWER BUTTON, NOT THE VOLUME UP BUTTON, 9as u have mentioned the oppssite in the first post) then it should go to boot loader menu.
I have a similar problem with ZF2. I access recovery mode by pressing the down arrow key and then the power button but the phone just reboots into recovery mode again. No dead android logo appears as others have suggested.
Try that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3191244
Do volume up + power, once it vibrates press volume down rapidly about 3 times. Wait for a minute or two while on the Asus screen. Sometimes it will boot into recovery or it will vibrate and stay stuck. It worked for me.
A workaround
Hello Guys !
I've posted a workaround to my problem but I don't understand why it doesn't appear. I certainly made a mistake something.
Here is what I remember:
I tried several procedure described on asus-zenfone.com I finally found a soft which unlocked my recovery mode.
But finally it was maybe the fact to connect my device with usb which unlocked It (sorry I don't remember)
Once recovery menu was available, I downloaded official rom, copied it on an sdcard and installed it.
Good news, most of bloatware were desactivable !
Now, I have a device rid of the unworthy softs with an offical ROM.
In such situations I usually disassemble the phone and disconnect the power train of a few minutes. After that it booted recovery/bootloader.

I am able to access bootloader . But when i choose recovery mode, the phone enters into a boot loop.
. Here is what i have done:
1. My device was already rooted.
2. Tried to install twrp custom rom using usb adb commands
3. It showed successful. I fast booted into my device. Switched it off and entered boot mode again. then selected Recovery. But I was never able to enter into recovery (The Robot with error was not at all displaying).
4. Then i searched google and found my boot loader was locked. I unlocked bootloader using
https://dl.xda-developers.com/3/4/0....zip?key=dEgXp67KVlqwn4BL-w1kWw&ts=1505837086
5. Now my flash screen is in white background. I can enter boot loader.
6. Then again i installed twrp via adb and selected recovery mode. But when i choose recovery, the phone goes into boot loop.
Please help.. One doubt: MY Phone is ASUS ZENFONE 2 Z00AD.
Hi, I updated with wrong recovery file and the device stuck in the boot logo. Even powering down is also not working. I can see that mac detects the USB device as HTC Android device. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello prakash... Press power plus volume up for 10 seconds. It will automatically restart. As soon as you see it's restarting press volume down.. it will go into bootloader..
Flash proper recovery now from fastboot.. enjoy
Or directly go to boot loader if your phone is off.
Volume down + power.

even i am stuck in this mode, after the 3rd step from WinDriod Toolkit flashed supersu, returned to install Lineage OS from TWRP mode, was sucessful in that too however forgot to install GAPPS after that and proceeded further, phone asked that super su not installed and if i want to install one now, proceeded from there and the screen now shows a 'sad Teal colour smile',
Also the volume + power up worked and device restarted however vol + power down doesnt seem to work and device returns to the same state 'sad Teal colour smile'.

When u press +volume +power and it restarts and screen goes black. Immediately press -volume +power. U will be able to get into recovery this way
Lineage /Oreo was installed thru TWRP 3.xxx, running fine but unhappy , no Viper4Android , so I installed it as a module on Magisk,
after installing the driver, was ask to reboot as directed, but went into bootloop , stuck on a boot loop " Set Warranty Bit : kernel " top left corner and Samsung Galaxy Note 3 on screen ; I tried Vol Up +Home+ power combo and all other combi I could think but no luck , Odin wont recognize my phone, tried Samsung 300k tool with no luck, I fell like a newbie after using so many ROMs on all of my devices, I google how to get back to download mode but no luck, I need help to make my Samsung note 3 work again, PLEASE. THANKS.
Hi,
I have same phone but I'm running Resurrection Remix 6 which is based on LineageOS 15.1 and I'm able to use the Viper module through Magisk 16.3 without any problems. No bootloops, no nothing.
I never would have guessed that a sound mod could brick the device to the point that the buttons no longer function. Hopefully other users will chime in and help you fix it.
Best of luck.
EDIT: Try taking the battery out to force it to shut down and then try the recovery/download mode technique again. Sometimes, it'll end up in a bootloop and the buttons will be become unresponsive. I know it may seem a bit strange, but that scenario is entirely possible given the age of the device.

You need to take the battery out to force it out of the bootloop then push volume DOWN, home & power.

Try this:
Uncheck everything in Odin except f reset time. Flash the latest ROM again. When you see the word "reset" in the status WIndow, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, replace battery, boot into recovery mode using buttons, factory wipe, and reboot.

After "reset" status, I did remove cable, remove batt and boot up to recovery, the blue light lit up as if its going to recovery mode , android logo showed up but phone boot up to normal but not pass beyond tmobile logo, so I did CF-root via odin , but still not booting to recovery.
Try flashing the entire ROM in AP.

Thanks Audit13,
I manage to restore my Note 3 to TMobile Android 5 using repair firmware , it looks like I wipe out the partition ,My phone runs like new, am just wondering why I cant go to Download mode with button combinations of Volume -/Home/power , tried to install twrp via Odin, it says PASS but Vol +/Home/Power wont lead me to bootloader, did tried CWM , it will boot up but before I could start using it, it will reboot to normal and I could not go back to bootloader with button combo Vol+/Home/Power........HELP...
Download mode is volume down+home+power.
To flash TWRP with Odin, try this:
Open Odin and only check f reset time. Flash TWRP. When you see the word reset in the Odin status window, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, replace battery, press home + volume up + power.
N900TUVUFOB6_N900TTMBFOB6_TMB and N900 PIT - are the files am using after screwing up my partition( I dont know how I did that ), this Note 3 is running like a hot knife on a butter BUT the only bug I notice is Volume Up + Home + Power ( recovery) NOR Volume Down + Home + Power (download ) does not work, I can only go to download mode using a USB JIG and no other way. I can flash TWRP via Odin with Auto-reboot not ticked , so I could remove cable, battery , hoping to get me to recovery mode but I couldnt. Did I miss a step?I need help.
