Stuck on bootloader - Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers

I cannot exit my bootloader. Even if I choose to reboot to TWRP it gets me back at the same selection screen. I tried the other options as well but they didn't seem to work. HELP!

My PC is not recognizing my device in cmd. When I type adb devices it's shows no device detected and I have even installed the zuk drivers.

Qfil?

When you are in bootloader, you should use fastboot command instead of adb.
And first, try to flash TWRP using: fastboot flashing recovery "YOUR TWRP IMAGE". If it works, flash rom like normal.
If that doesn't work, use QPST.

Problems rooting, adb etc.

Hello, I've tried rooting my Nexus 7 (2013) with LTE for like 5 hours now...
I've done every single thing in every single thread, and I still can't do ****.
I've tried the WugFresh root toolkit, but that did not work at all for me, I uninstalled and remove what they told me to do... But nothing worked, when I followed the WugFresh toolkit I lost usb mass storage... N7 did not appear at all on my computer, which it did, before I tried to screw with it...
I've tried doing it the manual way too, downloading all the drivers, uninstalling the other onces first.. But nothing... I could not even get the device listed in adb! I tried the full driver installation thing + automatic check if everything worked out, but the tablet would NOT run the script to reboot it into fastboot, and when I tried to restart the tablet into fastboot, and then continue to run the toolkit, it would start TWRP, the popup on my computer told me to flash something "!flashready", but I could not find it in the sdcard...
I unlocked the n7 manually, holding the volume button and power button down.
I know that was very bad written, but I'm a bit in a hurry. Anything I could do?

So the current condition of your device is that ADB is nonfunctional but you are able to temporarily boot into TWRP with fastboot - is this correct?

Yes, that is correct, temporarily, with the toolkit I mentioned. But I do not find the files that the toolkit tells me to flash

I'm not sure what this means. If you're using a toolkit, you're not doing it manually. Have you tried ADB and fastboot alone, without a toolkit? Is TWRP on your phone now? If so, you're done; just flash from recovery 1) a ROM for a custom ROM or 2) SuperSU.zip for just root.
If you don't have TWRP, does your Google boot screen has a locked icon at the bottom? If so: for ADB to work you need to have debugging turned on in your phone's developer settings. You don't need ADB though; just reboot into the bootloader by holding power and volume-down. Then type "fastboot devices" and see if anything shows up.
If it's an unlocked icon, just flash a recovery.img from fastboot.

Tried both manually with adb, and with WugFresh toolkit. I got WugFresh to run TWRP temporarily.

The toolkit is using the command
Code:
fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-deb.img
to temporarily boot it over the stock recovery. Since you unlocked your bootloader manually, you can replace the stock recovery manually too using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-deb.img

Fastboot is separate from ADB. Your fastboot is working if the toolkit is able to boot TWRP.
Code:
fastboot devices
is what you use while your device is in the bootloader.

[Q] wrong twrp won't install kitkat on KF 1st generation

hi all
I have a problem on getting TWRP to work properly.
I initially used BreakDroid to install TWRP, everything worked fine.
I tried to install the cm-11-20140512.1655-SKANKY-otter.zip OS but I first got the "error 7", fixed that, and then it was stuck at "updating package" (or similar)....
then I saw an updated version of TWRP, without realizing that it was for an asys TF101 tablet (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434422)...I installed that and now twrp doesn't work because the screen is the wrong size and I can't get to various buttons including flash/wipe etc..
I can still mount it tho so I thought about using adb/flashboot...but I can't seem to override that version of TWRP.
...best part...i cannot restore the original amazon OS since I didn't do a backup (...i know...:angel
does anyone have any idea about how I can fix that and install a kitkat rom?
I have nandroid backup of stock in my list.

thanks for the reply.
I did look at it but my problem is that I don't need to backup the system, I need to be able to install a recovery tool (twrp or cwmr) that will allow me to flash a rom on my kindle.
my problem now is that I can't seem to be able to do that since the recovery I have is for a different tablet and the screen won't allow me to get to the right buttons...I can only turn the kindle on and off .

I did try to do that but
1)
adb shell
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
--> doesn't work and I get "error: device not found"
i did the "./android update adb" with "adb kill-server" and "adb start-server" but nothing changed..
2) I installed the img file anyway through
fastboot flash recovery
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the img file but i still cannot get the twrp with the view for kindle...see attached image. i have NO ACCESS to some of the buttons, therefore I can't do much with it.
I would REALLY like to be able to install a CWM...i tried the one here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454241 using
fastboot flash recovery cwm-file-here.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but it gets to the boot page, I select "recovery" and then it's stuck with the kindle logo and the small "booting..." at the bottom of the screen...so I re-installed twrp even tho i still have that damn "build for Asus TF101 Series Tablets" (see attachment) warning on top!!
any help would be HUGELY appreciated!!
also, using "adb devices" I still can't see it.
Run this command from your computer with your kindle connected when you turn it on:
fastboot getvar product
The FFF bootloader temporarily enables fastboot as the device boots up. When you issue this command, it puts the device into permanent fastboot mode. Just flash the correct recovery after that:
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery your-recovery.img
fastboot reboot

When I launch the fastboot flash in fastboot mode I do get nothing but the blank cursor on a new line, although I see the device with "fastboot devices". After a few min that was stuck then I turned it off and the first part came up saying " sending file" but then it gave me an error saying that the connection was lost...which makes sense cause i turned it off..
If instead I launch the command and THEN turn the kindle on it does show me the correct output in a couple of secs as your showed. But then even if I do fastboot reboot, it does reboot it but no correct recovery is loaded...still the wrong screen size... Very very frustrating...
And btw...thanks for bearing with me through this!!!
---edit---
Now that I think about it...the twrp screen, although the wring size, actually reflects the VERSION of twrp that I'm installing through fastboot...it's as if the twrp I got from here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434422) controls the size of the screen while I'm able to change the version of twrp...I think that that is a recovery GUI for the Asus tablet, any idea if I can install another GUI?...hopefully this helps...

Your guess is right, installing another TWRP version doesn't affect the theme you are using, unless it has a theme of its own. You could delete the ui.zip from the TWRP folder and that would solve it. The folder should be in sdcard.

so..the problem with that is that I could not access the sdcard since adb doesn't work...however...as of now I've been able to fix the layout problem by using
fastboot -w
fastboot flash recovery twrp.2.7.0.1.img
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
once rebooting I had to re-wipe (advance wipe) sdcard/cache/data since when I tried to mount them I could not check the boxes.
now i STILL cannot mount it and adb does not recognize it.
I'm using mac and I tried
android update adb
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but still adb can't see the kindle and I can't mount it through twrp
...however, I'm still able to reboot in bootloader and use fastboot
I don't think I can flash a .zip rom from fastboot tho...and I'm not sure how to transfer files on the kindle to flash them from twrp...any idea?
thanks a ton!!
-- edit --
i already modified the ~/.android/adb_usb.ini file adding 0×1949 and then running
adb kill-server
adb devices
but what I get is just
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
and nothing to it...the "adb shell" still gives me "device not found"!!

dunno why twrp was the problem! the new recovery that you linked worked like magic, adb worked perfectly, I already flashed a rom and it works!!
so...why wouldn't twrp allow me to use adb or mount disks through usb?!
thanks so much for the help!!
Guessing it doesn't use the twrp theme, that was causing trouble.

Help I bricked my Oneplus 3

Hi, i played around with my new OP3, and i wanted to root it. Since i'm noob at rooting, it went wrong. (i did it with twrp)
So first it just went in to bootloop, then i was still able to get to rcovery and stuff, but i followed a guide to fix bootloop, and that ****ed it even more up. The guide i followedet told me to use "OnePlus3_Unbrick_Tool"
After using "OnePlus3_Unbrick_Tool", i now cant even go into recovery anymore, the only thing i can do is go to bootloader, but when i'm in bootloader now, it wont connect proberly, so that i can use "flash twrp", so that i can use twrp recovery.
Also when i try to boot it, it because of "OnePlus3_Unbrick_Tool" goes into something, where it says "md5 checksum failed", and then restarts and does it again and again.....
I hope it's not bricked forever, pls help ))
have you tried re-flashing the stock or twrp recovery with adb sideload command?
if not give it a shot, it might work.

Just boot into bootloader mode and through command prompt check if your phone is detected by typing fastboot devices. If its detected then you flash a new recovery again. Forget the toolkit, just look for instructions on how to install a custom recovery.

In fastboot mode, did you manage to find your device on the computer? On Linux this is "sudo fastboot devices", on Windows it should be roughly similar.

Hey!
I'm not the expert but I have played with my 1+3 enough to have some knowledge.
First of all, do not use "all in one tools", those do not put you in control.
Cool, so fastboot is detected, though you can't get into the recovery?
Step 1) make sure you have the latest version of "fastboot" and "adb" (Android Debug Bridge) and unlock the bootloader. This tread should be helpfull: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oneplus-3-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t3398733
You need to do this, because otherwise we will not be able to proceed (i.e. the phone is to be 'unlocked' for what we are about to do).
Step 2) If you are ready than let's flash a new recovery (TWRP):
This is also step 2 in the thread mentioned above. Very important: "Once the flash has completed, Don't use the "Fastboot Reboot" Command Instead Unplug Your phone then Manually boot it into recovery by keeping Power + Volume Down button pressed."
So once you have flashed a new recovery using fastboot, than you should reboot your phone into the new recovery!
step 3)
Once in the new recovery (TWRP) go to advanced and to ADB sideload. Make sure your computer detects your device with the command "adb devices" and flash a new ROM. Just for simplicity use the official OOS 3.2.4.
This should do the trick. Before you go and try make sure you understand EVERYTHING I have written. Let me know if you have questions.

Thank you, but i have not enabled "allow oem unlocking" in the developer settings when the phone worked, so i get a error message "FAILED (remote: oem unloc is not allowed)
What to do to unlock it then?
Bro, download 3.2.4 oos rom zip file from official link. Its around 1.3 GB. Just connect ur OP3 to computer. It will detect as MTP device.Im my computer it was in the name of RAIN Transfer the zip file to internal storage. Wipe cache. And select install option in TWRP and select the zip file u pushed and flash it. Best of luck..

Hey!
I'm not the expert but I have played with my 1+3 enough to have some knowledge.
First of all, do not use "all in one tools", those do not put you in control.
Cool, so fastboot is detected, though you can't get into the recovery?
Step 1) make sure you have the latest version of "fastboot" and "adb" (Android Debug Bridge) and unlock the bootloader. This tread should be helpfull: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oneplus-3-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t3398733
You need to do this, because otherwise we will not be able to proceed (i.e. the phone is to be 'unlocked' for what we are about to do).
Step 2) If you are ready than let's flash a new recovery (TWRP):
This is also step 2 in the thread mentioned above. Very important: "Once the flash has completed, Don't use the "Fastboot Reboot" Command Instead Unplug Your phone then Manually boot it into recovery by keeping Power + Volume Down button pressed."
So once you have flashed a new recovery using fastboot, than you should reboot your phone into the new recovery!
step 3)
Once in the new recovery (TWRP) go to advanced and to ADB sideload. Make sure your computer detects your device with the command "adb devices" and flash a new ROM. Just for simplicity use the official OOS 3.2.4.
This should do the trick. Before you go and try make sure you understand EVERYTHING I have written. Let me know if you have questions.

Hey i have the same problem but this fix does not work for me.
So I have the bootloader unlocked and I can enter the bootload and my computer detects my device which is nice.
when I flash twrp on my phone trough CMD it doesnt work, my PC tells me that everything is okay but my phone will not boot into twrp and instead it will give me weird errors.
---------- Post added at 03:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------
this fix worked for me,
On the screen when the phone failed to md5 checksum, you've got several partition failed right? in red text.
- download this : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424942573
and then extract.
- download platform tools attached below. extract in the same folder with first file you've downloaded.
- Boot your phone to fastboot mode, plug your usb, make sure adb and fastboot driver are installed.
- on the folder, hold shift and right click, click open command here
- type fastboot devices
- make sure your serial number appear.
- now flash the img of the missing file according to the partition in red text on your ms5 checksum failed one by one.
- e.g. "fastboot flash boot_aging boot_aging.img.
- make sure you flash all the missing partition.
- type fastboot reboot.
this will boot you to oos 3.1.2.
unfortunately I couldn't extract the newest oos dat. data. but you could always take the OTA
goodluck mate. sorry for my english

Hmm bad try installing all op3 drivers and see whether phone is detected or not. I was in the same situation previously. Pushing zip through adp terminal is painful process. I got device offline first,after solving that i got service not recognized issue. For solving that usb debugging needs to be enabled i stuck in that step.
can you enter recovery trough fastboot mode? I.e. if you are in fastboot mode you van use the volume keys to select recovery.
100% sure you can't enter recovery?
you can try Fast and pro's option. let us know!

Can't boot to recovery after uninstalling SuperSU!!!

Hi All,
I was running on AEX 4.6, SuperSU, Open Gapps, I wanted to install Google Tez but it doesn't work with rooted devices so after browsing there are some users who are able to use Tez by hiding root (replacing SuperSU with Magisk). I went ahead to SuperSU, tapped on Unroot Device option, accidentally i click on 'yes', when it was showing a message related to bootloader image (I don't know the message though), and now I'm unable to boot into TWRP.
Whenever I try to boot it into recovery, it shows two frames (given as urls) for as long as 1 sec, and then reboots itself.
Need your help guys!!!
Thanks in advance.

I don't think you can access adb when the phone is on fastboot
Use minimal adb and fastboot
Use
fastboot devices
Command to see if your device is connected
If it is connected then make sure bootloader is unlocked and flash twrp and ROM

Switch off the phone completely
Press volume up and volume down and plug in the data cable
Your device will boot into fastboot
Then you are recover your phone easily

OP3 Broken screen - how to extract data?

Hi,
I have OP3 with broken screen but it turns on (there is a LED blinking , and on my computer I see the OP3 CD installation & the device but I cannot access the data)
TWRP is the bootloader , how can I extract the data?
drivers are installed and tried some threads search on the furom but none of them worked for me
on fastboot devices it doesnt see it

Insufficient info.
Are you able to boot up? Are you able to boot to bootloader? Do you have TWRP and are you able to boot to it?
Is your bootloader unlocked? Are you rooted? Is USB debugging enabled?
Does "adb devices" / "fastboot devices" command find your phone? What ROM?

sorry ,
I think I am able to boot to the bootloader (but I cannot see it since my screen is broken)
my bootloader is unlocked , device is rooted and USB debugging is enabled
while pressing Power+Vol UP I can get into fast boot and see my device on fastboot devices
anything else I need?
To clear things up, TWRP is recovery and not bootloader. Fastboot is bootloader.
So, if you can boot into TWRP, you should be able to use adb commands. Try booting into it, then try "adb devices" and see if it's properly detected (adb reports device's serial number and status "recovery"). You can then use "adb pull" command to get your data.

Ok, an alternative then:
- download latest TWRP .img file to your PC
- open command window in folder with the file (Shift + right click > open command window here)
- boot into fastboot (Power + Vol Down) - you said you managed that before - and connect the device to PC. If it's properly detected in fastboot, you can boot custom recovery with "fastboot boot <recovery-name>.img"
Phone should now restart and boot into previously downloaded recovery. Now you can try and see if adb works.
Easier option would be simply "fastboot reboot recovery", but that command is non-standard and doesn't work on OP3 if I remember correctly. You can try though, nothing to lose.
