Fastboot mode - no boot or recovery img **help** - Nexus S General

Hi
I've searched for a solution but didn't find one for my problem so...
I was trying to flash an updated kernel through Kernel Manager application and then it said it cannot complete task and asked me to reboot system.
I then entered into the recovery and flashed the kernel manually.
When rebooted system I got the message "FASTBOOT MODE - NO BOOT OR RECOVERY IMG" in red at the top of the bootloader.
So naturally I thought maybe it lost the recovery so I went and flashed CWM recovery 3.0.2.5 (had 3.0.2.4 when all this happened) through fastboot and that went OK.
I then entered the recovery to make sure the recovery flashing went OK and pressed Restart system now.
But then it started the bootloader and the same message appeared "FASTBOOT MODE - NO BOOT OR RECOVERY IMG" in red at the top of the bootloader.
I repeated that process few times and same thing.
The strange thing is when I select "REBOOT BOOTLOADER" and it boots into bootloader I see "FASTBOOT MODE" in red at the top. But when I try to reboot the phose I see the message to the top again.
How can I get out of this?

Hi guys,
I've got the same problem, although I don't know if it IS a problem.
I'm running v7.0.0-NS and I'm going to upgrade to v7.0.3 ... just searching for instructions!!!
~AndrewGoldy

since I am able to enter the recovery Im trying to restore an earlier backup. Not sure it this will do anything since my problem is in the bootloader area.
If this makes my phone to start up normally then I really dont understand this.

*** I think that I've just fixed it ***
I opened up "Rom Manager v4.2.0.2", and then selected the option to "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
Once it had downloaded "ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.2.4", I selected the option to "Reboot into Recovery".
That worked.
It now says "Fastboot Mode" when I boot into the Bootloader.
Success!!!! (I think)

Well it just finished restoring the backup.
It seems it solved the problem on mine to since it passed the bootloader and the boot animation is on.
I really cant understand this.

I've done the same but the Recovery Stil nor Bootloader works. However it does say Fast boot mode now instead of no boot or recovery img. But still can't flash or back up a rom!
Correction i got it work after flashing to oldest recovery that was an option

I fixed this problem (Nexus S) by reverting to an older (3.0.2.4) CMRecovery, just go down to the last option "All ClockworkMod Recoveries" and Flash an older version (mine was not working with 5.0.2.0).

Hi! Anyoane can help me ?
I disconnected by accidently the USB cable while the phone was at the ClockWorkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0/-mounts and storage/-mount USB storage, and after that ( adb , fastboot and usb died).
I installed Stock OTA 2.3.6 I9023 for my Nexus S I9023. During the day phone closed and no longer wanted to open (even replace the battery). After more hours the phone is open , adb and usb works not for a long time after several attempts ( during this time I managed it to root and install CWM 5.0.2.0 back)
I flashed ICS Kwiboo v3 . After reboot the phone began to froze , and shortaly closed.
Because the phone will no longer open I tried in CWM all ( wipe data:fact, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, format/all ) .
Now if reboot system on CWM I have Fastboot Mode - No Boot or Recovery IMG
but if I reboot bootloader or power off when is opened is just Fastboot Mode .
Adb , fastboot and mount USB still no work. ( I have SDK 14 on windows7 installed, all the driver for Nexus S was updated).
Because the PC not recognized my phon I can't install another ROM or CWM.
( When USB cable connecting on the phone it's charge the battery only!).
Thanks for your advice!

No recovery img & fastboot devices -> nothing
Hi all,
When I try to access the recovery mode on my NS, I have the same "no boot or recovery img". I change my CWM version from last to 3.0.2.4 and another version too. Still, I can't access the recovery mode.
I installed the SDK to restore a stock recovery image I found, hoping to use fastboot (from the sdk + a standalone version I found before). But it won't recognize my phone (fastboot devices -> nothing). I installed the PdaNet for the Android 1.0 driver, and the Android 4.0 driver from the SDK. Still nothing, although "adb devices" apparently sees my phone.
I've spent my whole night on this. Without recovery I can't backup, and I can't switch rom (heard of this ICS rolling-out ? I'd like to have some flavour of it), I can't wipe or whatever.
Please can someone point me to a solution for fastboot to see the phone, or even better, to reinstall a recovery tool ?
Thanks a huge lot

I can help you but....
1. In bootloader mod ADB working ? (if not try back off battery for 10 min or more) and try again..
2. Your device is rooted ?

I was going to suggest trying to reflash the latest recovery again in CWM, but I think you guys said that hasn't worked.
Every now and then when I flash a new ROM this happens to me. I usually just flash an older version, then reflash the newest version and the Recovery works just fine.
Maybe try using a different recovery program?

it does work, many have done it already, see all the duplicated topics

1. I removed the battery for 10mn. When I come back to the bootloader "ADB devices" doesn't return a device, so it doesn't see my phone. But when switched on, it can see it.
2. Yes, it is. There is the SuperUser app, and when apps ask for root, I can allow or deny. And the lock state is 'unlocked'

I tried the latest, the oldest, the versions inbetween... nothing. I have the latest version of CWM and I reflashed the last Recovery from the app.
I can't flash another ROM, because I need recovery mode for that ; and my problem is that I can't access recovery indeed... :/ I feel like I need A to do B, and B to do A.
"No boot or recovery img": doesn't it mean that I should put some file somewhere ? I hope it would be that simple.
Do you have other ideas ?

I've tried several time, flashing different versions of CWM recovery. I've returned to bootloader -> recovery dozens of time and I still have the "no boot no recovery img". I'll try again.
All the threads which speak about it and mention to flash another rom -> yeah thanks, but I can't access recovery
Threads mentioning fastboot -> I tried with different drivers (including 1.0 and 4.0), but fastboot won't see/talk to my device
Do you see something else that I didn't try ?
---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------
I also tried this which seems to be a good step
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356319
Basically it says
adb shell
SU
flash_image recovery /sdcard/filename.img
But like the guy in thread, I have memory errors "mtd: read error at 0x00000000 (out of memory)" then write errors, then "failed with error: -1" and "error writing recovery"

It's ok now.
In case other it can help other people:
I tried again the PDAnet installation to get the android 1.0 drivers. (actually there is a binary called "install legacy usb drivers" which apparently worked well.)
Fastboot would detect my phone in bootloader mode.
So I could "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img" I first failed with a stock recovery, but for which I didn't know the exact reference and origins (I was stuck with the exclamation point in white triangle). As I couldn't find another stock recovery for Nexus S, I downloaded the CWM recovery from the website (not from the app), last version (5.0.2.0) and flashed it with fastboot.
It seems to work properly now, so i'm doing a rom backup, just in case for later, and I'll flash stock ICS
FYI: rom manager only caused me issues ; I don't know why Cyanogen uses it. Just use the recovery directly from recovery... Even CWM. just not Rom Manager.
Cheers and thanks to those who tried to help.

THANKS! This helped A TON!
I did the PDA installation again, and for some reason this seemed to fix my inability to access recovery.
Agreed on Rom manager, I updated CWM through rom manager and I believe that's what buggered up my recovery, as I have never had trouble accessing it before I did that.
But again, a big THANKS for that suggestion!

[Q] fastboot - no boot or img file

hey guys i'm having some trouble. i just got the nexus (it's my first smartphone, ever) and i've tried to hit the ground running. here's what i've done to the phone so far.
i got all the drivers running on my win7 machine and also installed the android SDK folder onto C: as was described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878786
i then unlocked the bootloader using the above guide as well. when I power on the phone using UP+POWER it says UNLOCKED.
I then proceeded to follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875875
i used ADB to flash the clockwork crespo recovery. i then used fastboot to install Superuser.
at that point i had an unlocked bootloader, clockword recovery image and superuser permissions.
i then saw that the 2.3.1 update had been released. i wanted to learn how to tackle that so i started reading up. i noticed that people were using ROM Manager and Titanium. I got titanium and installed the BusyBox addon and it allowed me to do a full Batch Backup of all my programs, etc. i've got the 50MB or so backup folder on my PC now.
anyway, i then messed with Rom Manager. I installed the 3.0.0.0 ClockworkMod Recovery and everything went smoothly. now this is where my troubles begin.
when i go to Download ROM all i get is a Free Stuff area.
when i go to Check for ROM Updates it tells me my device isnt set up for OTA updates.
those are just minor issues.
this is the big and scary issue i have:
when i click on reboot to recovery, it takes me to the same screen that i go to when i power on with VOLUME UP+POWER. it doesnt take me to the recovery screen that i see in various youtube videos. instead, i'm at the main screen where it says UNLOCKED and i have 4 choices (reboot bootloader, recovery, reboot, power off). and on the very top in RED letters it says fastboot - no boot or img file. <-- this is the part that makes me nervous. If i manually power down the phone and boot to fastboot and click recovery, it just goes back to this same screen and says fastboot - no boot or img file. when i first rooted the phone, clicking recovery actually took me to a different screen where i was able to load up superuser.zip and install it.
did i accidetnally delete something that i wasnt supposed to? did installing ROM manager mess something up? i typically dont do anything until i confirm that i am supposed to. i think the problem is that i dont yet know how one thing i do on the phone affects another. i'm guessing when i used rom manager to update the CWmod it changed some folders/files? i dunno!
otherwise, the phone works fine and there are no glitches or hiccups or crashes. So if someone can please take a moment to just explain to me what i did wrong or what i failed to do i'd really, really appreciate it.
you don't have a recovery partition. Either flash one over manually using fastboot, or boot up and try to use ROM Manager to flash CWR.
when you say flash one over using fastboot, do you mean put my phone using VOLUME UP + POWER, connect usb cable, then use command line to do this:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-crespo.img
?

Yes, 'cept it will be "fastboot flash recoveryrecovery-clockwork-3.0.0.0-crespo.img" without the quotes now.
But does it say that you're missing a boot.img or recovery.img?
Also, the "not set up for OTA" thing isn't for official OTAs. Some developers have made their custom ROMs capable of being updated that way.

thank you luxferro and unremarked. i did it and it works perfectly. i am now able to access clockworkmod recovery 3.0.0.0. next step is backup my existing ROM and also to figure out how to put the OTA 2.3.1 on and restore all my data
oh and unremarked: it basically said no boot or img file and thats it after i would click on recovery or reboot to recovery trhough rom manager. it was just in red at the top. but now it takes me to the ClockworkMod Recovery

help with cyanogen Rom upgrade from 5.0.7 to 6.0.0

I have a rooted mytouch original with cyanogen 5.0.7/android 2.1 and want to upgrade to cyanogen 6.0.0/android 2.2.
Can I just install the new rom, or are their prior steps to prepare for this.
Thanks

Check CM wiki.. all the info is there!
yes, I had already read through the cm wiki before posting. I just read through it a second time, though the specific question that I had asked was not addressed as far as I could tell. Don't want to flash a new rom without first knowing its the right step to take. So if someone doesn't mind answering the question...
Just do a nandroid backup. Then you flash the CM 6 over the old one, do a cache+dalvic wipe and start it up.... It should be ok.
If not, then just revert back with the knowledge that you have to do a complete wipe, meaning that you need to start from scratch.
I now have initiated flashing new rom, starting with backing up data and wiping cash. However, I am now unable to go into recovery mode, whereas the phone is stuck on the logo when attempting to do so. I had installed through rom manager clockworkmod 2.5.0.1, got the message it installed correctly.
Here are the methods I have used to go into recovery:
1. click on "reboot into recovery"
2. backup current rom
3. flash alternative recovery with RA Recovery v.1.7.OH downloaded by rom manager, and use rom manager to restart into recovery mode
4. turn phone off, try to press home and power button together, for the new RA and the new clock work mod programs.
will not go into recovery mode, gets stuck on the boot up logo. Phone otherwise works fine, on the older Cyanogen Rom..., just can't go into recovery mode which I need to do to upgrade.
My original recovery was RAv1.2.0G.img, but this was I assume replaced by the rom manager.
In case this is important, my other software versions I have been using the past year:
Hboot 1.33.2005 (sapp30000), Cpld 10, Radio 2.22.19.261
will not go into recovery mode, gets stuck on the boot up logo. Phone otherwise works fine, on the older Cyanogen Rom...
any suggestions?
You flashed wrong recovery version...
You need RA Recovery v.1.7.OG and not H as stated above.
If all ****s up, then use my guide (check my signature) to flash a custom recovery... just skip the steps about root since you already got that!
Remember, G and NOT H.
lost recovery
mumilover
I do actually have v.1.7.0G installed, not H (my bad).
it just will not go into recovery.
Please let me know where your guide is, but right now I have been unable to communicate with my device through my xp desktop, get the "device not found" error (I assume you are suggesting that). Not sure how this will help though, since I already seem to have the correct recovery image installed.
Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

Download my fastboot commander (CHECK MY SIGNATURE, magic version).
Restart into fastboot mode.
Download this recovery image:
http://rapidshare.com/files/387932919/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
Using the tool and your eng spl, you can just flash the recovery image on the phone.
Just use the first tab -> recovery button -> navigate to the above image -> click "flash recovery". Done.
Restart into recovery by home + power combo.
You could also try this command:
Code:
adb shell reboot recovery
to force it to boot into recovery from the system.
[Problem is fixed. Thanks for your help.
I used my mac bootcamp (could not get sdk to run on my desktop or mac), and could find my device through adb. Then I pushed a separate version of the RA 1.7.0 G (the one the came with rom manager did not work!) to my phone via flash command. Voila, I am now able to go into recovery mode. 6.0 is installed and running.

Can't get into recovery mode after changing bootloader

I got an Acer A501 tablet and installed lightspeed 4.8. Everything was working fine but for some reason I decided to update the bootloader to Skrillax_CZ's unlocked bootloader which was recommended. Since updateing the bootloader the tablet randomly reboots itself and shut down. I also can no longer get into recovery mode. I tried using Clockwork mod and also with the volume+- buttons manually but all that happens is it hangs at "booting recovery kernel". Does anyone know how to change the bootloader without entering recovery mode?

1. Make sure you have the Android SDK installed to your PC.
2. Boot the tab to fastboot using PWR and Vol+
you should get a menu
Select Fastboot Mode. Should say it at the top center when in fastboot
3. Download your CWM image file and copy it to your C:\Program Files\Android\Android-sdk\platform-tools folder. (might be in Program Files (x86).
in that folder you will see a file called "fastboot.exe"
Wait, plug your tab in.
4. Open a command window in that folder (shift + right mouse click)
in the window, type fastboot flash recovery nameofyourrecover.img (where nameofyourrecovery is what the recovery image file is named.
5. Hit Enter
Should flash your CWM recovery image back. I advise you use the latest CWM recovery. 1.7.2 or 1.7.3 you can get at tegraowners site

If I don't have a recovery image am I SOL? Can I download one from somewhere?

tegraowners.com is one place.
The other recovery, is PublicRecovery which you can find in the Dev Forum.
Both are good recoveries. Albeit the CWM one is notorious for not revealing source code on his kernels. Non-GPL, which is why he is not allowed to post his kernels or roms at XDA. Might be sending your usernames and login's for all anyone knows,
The CWM "is" GPL compliant. So no needs to worry.
The "search" button, is such an easy thing to use.

Thank you for the help. I found an app in the play store called "Acer Recovery" and used it to flash clockwork recovery. I was able to get into recovery mode after that and install the Tegra Owners ICS rom I wanted to try. I won't forget to do a nandroid backup ever again lol.

Yeah, keep forgetting about that one. But, just make sure the Recovery you installed is a recent one. Not sure how often that app gets updated.
Some of the older versions have issues with ICS sometimes, especially TWRP. So check versions.

[Q]LG G2 re-flashing or rooting stock 4.4.2 bad rom

Hi all,
First off I've tried now for a two days to solve this, reading as much as I could find on here and the rest of the internet.
I decided to root my LG D802 running 4.2 and install CWM recovery no problem. Next I flashed a stock 4.4.2 vodaphone img. All went well untill i tried to use the touch screen, which shows that when i press on one point on the screen it selects multiple points basically its unusable and unable to do almost anything with it, however i have managed to turn on ADB and connect to the phone. So now i have a stock recovery and an unusable ROM.
So next up I tried to rooting it since I had ADB shell working ok, using the IOROOT25. This appears to work as when it reboots and installs the kkroot.zip in the recovery it's saying it worked. Now when I reboot and open ADB shell then type SU to get root I can't press ok when superuser pops up to asking me to give it permission, because of the touch screen problem.
If i can get root in ADB then remount the files system then i will be able to DD a new recovery img??
After getting this far and loosing, I then found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 on flashing to stock, but the program crashes every time it's about to flash, so i tried doing a fresh install of windows 7 and then tried windows 8 however the program still crashes every time and yes I have followed the instructions and tried the manual method and checking the 127.0.0.0. lgblahblah is there
So no I am turning to you guys for help.
phone details;
Model: D802 32GB
Firmware operator: VDF
sw version: D80220a
ro.build.fingerprint: lge/g2_vdf_com/g2:4.4.2/KOT49I.D80220a/D80220a.1392133741:user/release-keys
Recovery: <3e> KOT49I.D80220a test-keys
UPADATE: I have root but getting this error when trying to flash the recovery:
+] loki_flash v2.0
[-] Loki aboot version does not match device.
any ideas?
Ok so i found a different aboot img pushed to the phone and flashed that using dd
Code:
dd if=/data/local/tmp/about.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
this solved the problem above and a allowed me to flash cwm recovery. This then broke the installed rom so it wouldn't boot. now I had a custom recovery i flashed a EUR open 16gb stock zip this all went well and now i have a working phone What i should of done is remove the stock recovery.img from the zip and the line to flash it in the update script so it didn't flash the stock recovery.
This now leaves me with the loki flash problem above when trying to flash a custom recovery i could flash a different aboot.img but i don't want to break the current rom.
Any one else found a way to solve this problem?

i downloaded ioroot25 and extracted it and ran root.bat
Looking for device...
Make sure drivers are installed. Check Windows Device Manager.
Make sure proper USB Debugging mode is enabled.
Verizon users make sure ethernet mode is selected.
Did you check phone screen for Yes/No prompt?
(select checkbox to always remember then hit yes)
...sometimes you need to unplug the USB cable then re-plug.
Determining device model...
Rebooting into stock recovery...
When recovery loads, select: *apply update from adb* with power button...
then press Enter/Return on your keyboard.
Press any key to continue . . .
(here the phone restarts and LG logo appears with (secure booting error)message in the upper left corner, and when i press any key)
Reboot back into System after flash in recovery finishes.
Press any key to continue . . .
and when pressing any key the cmd closes and the phone stays on with black screen and the back light on
in the pc i get many windows about formating drives (from H to S)
and i dont know anything about linux or command line
would you explain it to me??
Ok so your phone not longer boots, correct? Do you know what build/version plus any other details of the rom you flashed? or even a link so i can have a look at the rom you have installed. Can you get into recovery mode and is it still a stock recovery image? also what is your phone d802? 16gb 32gb?

If you're running root.bat as an admin, try executing it without admin privileges. Dunno why, but it seemed to work for me.

Did you try to flash CWM recovery? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 This thread has What you need to do .. After then you can nandroid backup after then wipe everything except EFS on twrp after that you can stock_kitkat.zip on the xda forum. Efter that restore data via twrp.
I think that It will be correct without deleting your current rom ...

UPADATE: I have root but getting this error when trying to flash the recovery:
+] loki_flash v2.0
[-] Loki aboot version does not match device.
any ideas?
Ok so i found a different aboot img pushed to the phone and flashed that using dd
Code:
dd if=/data/local/tmp/about.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot
this solved the problem above and a allowed me to flash cwm recovery. This then broke the installed rom so it wouldn't boot. now I had a custom recovery i flashed a EUR open 16gb stock zip this all went well and now i have a working phone What i should of done is remove the stock recovery.img from the zip and the line to flash it in the update script so it didn't flash the stock recovery.
This now leaves me with the loki flash problem above when trying to flash a custom recovery i could flash a different aboot.img but i don't want to break the current rom.
Any one else found a way to solve this problem?

Hi! I've recently flashed an updated stock ROM and have the same Touchscreen issue as yourself! Can you tell me the steps you have done to fix it? I'm using windows 8.1 to flash etc, and using a stock ROM I can't seem to get it to work again

Lost recovery, cant boot, only fastboot

Guys... when i tried to flash oos 3.0 on my op2 through twrp, i first wiped the data to install new rom, then install oos 3.0, it failed. I then flashed the recovery i downloaded from the thread, then restart the recovery
I cant boot into the recovery.
System can't boot
Is it called "brick"?
So i tried to flash stock recovery in pc by command, but it says "remote: device is locked. cannot flash images". any solution to this problem?
I can boot into fastboot mode
You need to run the phone in Qualcomm mode on a PC and run the recovery tool to fix you bootloader.
I did the same and it was a royal ball ache trying to find out how to fix it
Don't do what rosswaa said
Why not?
What you should do is boot your phone into fastboot mode, connect it to your pc. Flash this modified TWRP recovery img to your phone https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297945. After that you have to flash this modified SuperSU (through the new recovery) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297946.
The normal recovery doesn't work in OOS 3.0 (just like in HOS) and it's the SuperSU that gives you the soft brick. A dirty flash of the modified SuperSU should fix it.
I also had your problem and I did what rosswaa said which shouldn't be necessary (I lost all my data and backups).
I didn't lose anything, but I tried doing what you said and my bootloader was screwed so wouldn't take a flashed recovery or anything (yes the modified one)
Wish I hadnt been so excited and just flashed but all sorted now
Hmm okay, if it doesn't work with flashing the new recovery img then do what rosswaa said and after that follow this post https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/installation-instructions-faqs-oxygenos-3-0-0.439108/
Obviously try what green says first, if it works then happy days
first i am really glad that someone give some advices on me. But since i am a noob, how can i flash twrp in fastboot mode? using command? "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img"? thx
