[RECOVERY][ALPHA]ClockworkMod Recovery for Synrgic Dreambook W7

Here's the clockworkmod recovery image.
It ain't all alright but the important parts are there.
I'm not responsible for anything you do with this.
Copy the extracted .img to your device and go something like this in a root shell:
Code:
dd if=<path to image> of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
Now shut it off. If it is connected to power disconnect it. Press the reset button and wait a few seconds.
Power on by holding home, back and power.
The display has a bug. The bug is only in the display so imagine that the line highlight is where it is supposed to be and you will manage to operate.
Another issue is that the reboot command only shuts it off. There's effectively no reboot in this device. I hope that it is a software issue and not a hardware one.
Good luck and enjoy.

Stuck on Google logo boot screen -- Bricked??

I unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom recovery. I then rebooted the device. Now it is stuck at the bootloader (white Google logo on black background) and I can't get it to do anything else. I've rebooted it a bunch of times including with the vol + and vol - buttons held down to no avail. I've also let the battery run out and then tried to boot it up again and the same thing happens. adb nor fastboot see the device and it doesn't show up in the logs on my machine (Mint 13) as coming online at any time.
Most of the times I reboot it with the power switch it reboots to the Google logo even without me letting go of the power button. Sometimes I can get it to fully power off but I haven't figured out what combination of vol keys and reboot does that.
Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong? Any help would be much appreciated!

You are not bricked if you can still get into the bootloader.
Download the factory image from here, and flash it with fastboot. If you don't know how to do that, read this thread.

I wish I could get fastboot to see it then I could definitively flash that img.
I can't get into the bootloader and can't get fastboot or adb to see it. It's stuck at the Google logo now and when i hold the power key it reboots back to the Google logo with the unlock logo at the bottom.
Thanks for the help

You've tried holding volume down+power for 10+ seconds? That should power off the device, then hold both vol up+down down and power up

Ya I've tried to hold vol + and power for 10+ seconds and it reboots back to the Google logo even if I don't off the power key. Same happens with all the other combinations of keys being held with the power button. I can't get it to turn off now unless I let the battery die

Press and hold power till screen goes black. Then quickly press power+volume down and HOLD.

Tried that and still stuck at the Google logo. I have to go to work for a couple hours and then will hack on it when I'm back. Hope I don't have to deal with Googles rma process seeing how disorganized the rest of that company is

No luck with any button combos but the vol + and power actually turned it off. All out of ideas over here. I'm thinking it really is bricked

I'm in the same spot. I can get it into recovery occasionally but once there it locks up after trying to flash or clear the cache.
I'm wondering if a contributing issue is CMR v6.0.0.6? I updated it from 6.0.0.4 that was running fine. But no fastboot or adb so that is doubtful.
This is frustrating and not a great start with this N7.

thank you

this worked. you have to be fast. as soon as screen goes black release power button then quickly, very quickly repress along with vol up and down.

You will still be able to get into the bootloader! Force kill the tablet by holding the power button for ages. Then hold volume up and volume down and the power button together, which will boot to fastboot.

It looks like a CWM bug as I feared. Anyone in the same boat try here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782932

Nothing has worked and I've literally tried everything that those three buttons can do. Thanks again for all the help guys. Had a great time trying to resurrect it but guess it's time for it to go back home
Just as I suspected. Google puts out buggy junk once again.

I just wanted to report a similarly event. I have a rooted, unlocked Nexus 7, with TWRP recovery. I have previously rebooted without issue. Tonight I booted into bootloader mode to check something and the hit power button to choose start. I got stuck on the boot logo. After finding this thread, I started with the simplest combination and held power button until screen went dark, then added volume down and once again in bootloader. This time choosing start led to a regular system boot. It's as if the device froze and needed a hard reboot.

I was attempting to boot into recovery and kept getting the 'Google' logo (I am unlocked/rooted with twrp recovery). I wasn't aware that one had to be plugged in via usb in order to *not* hang....
Any way around this?
Once I plugged it in and attempted to boot into recovery it worked fine.

I had a similar issue after using the Nexus Root Toolkit to flash to nakasi 4.2 with CWM recovery - just got stuck on the nexus boot screen, flashing in a loop for over 15 minutes.
I ended up powering down the device, holding power for about 5-10 seconds - then QUICKLY holding both the power and volume up+down keys, it then went into the fastboot screen.
After it was there, plugged it into my PC.
Now, this should work for you - assuming you have all the fastboot/usb driver stuff installed.
I extracted the contents of nakasi-jop40c-factory-6aabb391.tgz into the same directory as the fastboot.exe provided by WugFresh with his Nexus Root Toolkit (google search or xda search for this if you dont have it, i dont think i can post links due to my low postcount) - typical filepath: C:\Program Files (x86)\WugFresh Development\data
By the files in there, I mean drilling down inside the tgz to where the image files were inside so that files like bootloader-grouper-4.13.img, image-nakasi-jop40c.zip etc were extracted into the directory and sitting alongside the fastboot.exe - NOT in a subfolder.
Once its all here, running flash-all.bat (this is provided by google in the nakasi-jop40c-factory-6aabb391.tgz) from the command line or by double clicking on it from explorer should kick off the process. After about 2-3 minutes, it was complete, and my Nexus then booted up within about 3 minutes after that.
Also worth noting, device remained unlocked, but I lost root/root binary

[Q] Bootloop, cant get into fastboot

Hi
I rooted my nexus 10 some months ago. All worked fine until yesterday. I wanted to go back to original firmware and used the WUGs nexus root toolkit to download 4.4.3 version and flash it. But afterwards the tablet doesnt boot anymore. Google logo appears and then the circle thing never goes away. I searched many threads, and all base on going into fastboot and flash again, but thats the problem. I cant get into fastboot. The usual combination (Power and vol+ and vol-) doesnt work! I tried many other combinations with different timings, longer press only vol+ and power ...., I always get to google logo after it vibrates.
Is there any other way to get into the fastboot mode ?
Can I connect it to the computer and interrupt the boot process when I switch it on via the PC?
thanks in advance
regards
Erich

Try to connect it to PC with original usb cable and run "adb devices".
If you see Nexus device, you can try "adb reboot recovery" and upload a ROM to /sdcard with "adb push" for flash it.

Hi
Thanks for your relpy.
But thats the problem, even if I could upload a file with adb, which is not working, how would I flash it if I cant get into fastboot or recovery mode ???
thanks anyway
regards
Erich

I think what patzzz is saying is that it depends on your bootloop, often is the case that when someone is in a bootloop the kernel does initiate and adb is functional. Not always but at times for sure.
So if so you can attempt
adb reboot recovery
Or
adb reboot bootloader
If the above doesn't work than you will have to continue trying to boot to bootloader manually with key presses (which I believe is power on while holding volume down)
Best of luck!

Hi
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately it doesnt work. It made a batch file which calls adb devices and adb reboot bootloader in a loop, so it can send it to the device if it is found, but the tablet isnt regonized, tried some reboots and no luck, adb cant find it )))-:
regards
Erich

It seems a brick, but you can try using fastboot command instead of adb:
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot reboot-bootloader

I suggest you do a factory reset from the stock. You have gone back to stock firmware so you should have stock recovery. I had this happen once and this work for me.

Hi
I will try it with fastboot too, maybe it works....
How can I do a factory reset without recovery mode ?
thanks

Erich

1.If your tablet is on, turn it off.
2.Press & hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow drawn around it.
3.Press the Volume Down button twice to highlight Recovery mode.
4.Press the Power button to start Recovery mode. You'll see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation point and the words "No command."
5.While holding down the Power button, press the Volume Up button.
6.Use the volume buttons to scroll to "Wipe data/factory reset," then press the Power button to select it.
7.Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data," then press the Power button to select it.

>>2.Press & hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons at the same time for several seconds. You'll see the word "Start" with an arrow drawn around it.
Thats the problem, it doesnt work! Tried it a dozent times, only Google logo appears.....

[GUIDE]Booting into the LG G5 stock recovery

Yo its me,instead of booting into hard reset menu,i've found a way to boot right into the stock recovery mode and might help some devs to develop something for it or clearing the cache partition for else.:laugh:
Here's how:
1,Enable USB debugging
2,Plug in the phone,select File transfer
3,Open the active ADB directory,fire up command prompt and enter the following text:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
4,You should get a android doll with NO COMMAND screen,
(Below part please give it a few more try,it will succeed)
5,hold volup+power to approx. 10 sec and release
Bah.You just entered the LG's stock recovery.
Sadly the "reboot to bootloader" function failed and just boot straight back to the system,if somehow we could found how to get rid of it,the root is here

sadly its not working on H860

It should be working as long as you reach to the dead android doll

I can see the android doll but after that it reboots like normal.

You can also power off phone or select restart. Once phone is off and notification lights are off, press and hold volume down & power button. Keep holding it down once phone starts. You will see LG boot logo then recovery mode. Must keep holding down both buttons until you see recovery mode.
There is also an option to mount /system in the stock recovery. Was trying to use adb to push some files to /system, but phone is only recognized when you select the sideload using adb option.

Out of luck
No luck on H860, it just reboot the phone....

As soon as the phone vibrates and LG logo shows up you have to let go of power button and press and hold again until white recovery screen appears, vol down always held down.

Hardware button don't work in bootloader?

Hey guys. I just got LG G6 H870 model. Unlocked bootloader without much problems, but issues came later. While being in bootloader I can't do anything, hardware buttons seem to not work. The only way to get out of bootloader is to use "fastboot reboot" command, but that prevents me from getting into custom recovery after flashing it. Only entering download mode works (holding volume up and plugin in usb cable). Non other key combination work until I boot into system.
Can this issue be somehow resolved?

I had similar problem myself with entering recovery more and the reason behind it was that I didn't press the button combo in proper way. what you actually have to do is while you in fastboot mode you press down and hold power button and volume down button. phone reboots after a moment and you should still be holding these keys and when lg logo appears you let go of power button for brief second and then press it back again and then when a prompt on white screen appears just go yes two times and phone shall boot in recovery mode . I had watch a tutorial movie to figure that out. other easy way is just to have adb enabled and reboot it with adb reboot recovery command via USB cable

No, because I had G5 and I know the proper way to do that. Problem is I can hold the power button as long as I live and the phone won't reboot, regardless of pressed combination or power button solo.

and the adb command way ?

Well... Nevermind, turns out vol down button isn't working at all.

still good way around is adb reboot recovery
