Another bricked Nexus 7 - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

I've picked up a Nexus 7 cheap because it was stuck on the Google logo, apparently it wanted to do an update and it seems it wasn't successful and is now stuck at the Google screen
I got it to try and attempt to repair it but don't seem to be having much luck with it.
When I try flashing factory images using the flash-all.bat file I get
Code:

Trying to unlock the bootloader I get
Code:
PS C:\adb> fastboot oem unlock
...
(bootloader) Unlocking bootloader...
(bootloader) erasing userdata...
And it just sits there for ages and doesn't do anything.
I'm a bit stumped as to what more I can do?

Did you check the SHA-256 checksum?

No, not directly but I know when wugfresh downloads an image it does a hash check so I'm pretty sure the files are fine.
It is by the looks of it having troubles handling the erase commands so I'm guessing it's a problem with the emmc.
I've tried 2 different computers with different usb ports also.

Try sideload ota from recovery if this is working

I'd love to but I can't boot to recovery, just sits there doing nothing.

I had previously tried this with a few others such as MOB30D, MMB29V, MMB29Q, MMB29O with same results. Thoughts?
You are using an obsolete version of 'fastboot'. Get another one or try fastboot on Windows.

[HELP] Pixel C don´t boot and can´t acces any partition after restore a backup

Hello,
I made a backup of my RR ROM by followmsi in my usb stick, after give a short try to AOSP OREO I decide go back to my old rom. So I reboot into TWRP (latest version) in order to restore my backup that it´s on my usb stick. After the restore I reboot to system but I never go into system, it get stuck on RR logo, so I go back to TWRP and now it asks for a password to decrypt data and I NEVER USE A PASSWORD/PATRON
I try to format every partition but TWRP is always unable to mount those partitions. Now I try to make a new install of the rom with no results.
So now my Pixel C is like a rock and I can´t get it boot. Anyone can help me bringing it back to life? Doesn´t matter if I must restore it to fully stock, this is the very last time that I try roms or similar in Pixel, I´m done and probably I sell it, I´m just tired and it´s insanely messy for me.
I never never have this kind of problems that I´m facing with Pixel C with any of my android phones/tablets, this is my fault probably at 100% just I can´t understand anything.....
Thanks in advance.

I think you need to find the original firmware with the bootloader version the same as you have now(Device version-bootloader is 'Google_Smaug.7132.295.0'.) and install it. After that, I think it will be possible to update on OTA for a newer one.

Nexus 7 will not start anymore

My problem is that my Nexus 7 will not start anymore. It will still display a startup screen, but then it will not continue. Also, I'm still in the boot loader, but can not flash the Recovery TWRP, because apparently the device is not recognized. Also in the Recovery TWRP I can not start, it will then hang synonymous.
Had actually installed CyanogenMod 14.1 and ran for some time with it
What options do I have left?
