im trying to root my nexus 7, and im having an issue. I was going to unlock the device with the nexus root toolkit and it booted into fastboot mode and when i tried to start the process, the tablet is unresponsive... I cant get it to do anything. im pressing the buttons and its not doing anything. Is there a way that i can hard reset the tablet?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hard reset by holding down power button and volume up.

There's a bug currently. Power it off, plug it into your computer with usb, boot into fast boot then enter recovery.
Or you could reboot into recovery with cwm or quick boot

Download quick boot - lets you soft boot into recovery. Yeah it's a paid up but it helps minimize button wear if you are a flashaholic.

Hi all,
I just unlocked my nexus 7 using the N7 toolkit on XDA. I've noticed a few things:
-I cant boot into stock recovery unless the device is plugged into the computer or hit the "START" option in the fastboot menu.
Is this normal?
Can someone tell me how to use the stock recovery, i remember on my Galaxy nexus pressing volume down and power would bring up a menu. This doesn't seem to work on my N7?
Thanks
AFAIK that's normal for the N7. You can't boot into stock recovery without being plugged in. Haven't tried with any of the rom toolboxes out there tho.
Its a boot loader bug

This isn't my first Android device, but it is my first nexus so I must admit that fast boot is new to me. It seems pretty straight forward although I can't seem to get into recovery recovery. I get into fast boot by pressing power plus both the volume buttons. From there the top right has a green start and I then press volume until it says start recovery in red. After hitting power, the device restarts and shows the Google screen with an unlock at the bottom but it seems to hang on this screen. Is there something I'm missing. The device can get into recovery from PA extended start menu and adb. And it seemed to do it on stock also. Am I doing something wrong?

I ran into the same problem as well.... can't get into recovery.
Just got my Nexus 7 and just rooted with Nexus Tool Kit.
Guys do a little search and you will find out, that this is a normal behaviour: You need to have the device connected to your PC by USB and it will be able to go to recovery.

encountered the same problem! but worse is my computer cant seem to detect by USB
Are you on PC try to uninstall and restart drivers.
On Mac try adb kill server. (Could be wrong but I think that's the command)
I was rooted, and had twrp. My phone wasn't charging so, I did a wipe. After that I haven't been able to get past the Samsung screen.
I have tried recovering a back up a made, with no luck.
I also odined the stock, still nothing.
Not sure what I can do, please help. Thank you.

After you Odin back to stock go to recovery and do a factory reset it'll boot all the way after that

Exactly. 99% of people don't know what bricked is lol...
You are correct there, they really don't know what a brick is, a brick is you hit a button and NOTHING happens, soft brick is any type of display comes up, it is a soft brick..and CAN BE FIXED.
I have no Rom installed. I accidently try to install a kernal through recovery mode? I am completely lost.. First I rooted my phone and everything with the one-tool click. After that, I tried to install Elements. What Do i do.. I can get into fastboot mode..?
Try to get into recovery and do factory reset

You will need to stay in fastboot mode, then download the nexus toolkit, and it will download the stock firmware and install it for you. I've had my tablet in your situation plenty of times and using the toolkit has got me out every time

Press the power and volume down buttons at the same time to get to the bootloader and fastboot.
