How are you certain your recovery is gone? You might just be stuck in bootloop. Your best bet is to use toolkit to get you into recovery. Whether Twrp or CWM. From there youcan flash a new kernel and see if it fixes it or use it to restore a backup.
I had similar issue where it was stuck on boot screen. I ccouldn't enter recovery normally. Only way was hooking it up to a pc. Then using a toolkit to make the tablet go into recovery. Then from there, I could use recovery on tablet itself and restore a backup. From there I was good again. Problem solved for me.
Try one of the other toolkits, like Sambra one. Make sure drivers properly installed though.

It's an easy fix, just use wug's toolkit and flash the stock Nexus 7 image. It will be like brand new. I don't think you had a very major problem at all to begin with just a minor bootloop, but this far along I'd restore it to stock and start fresh.

I seem to have messed up the process. I successfully unlocked and rooted my Nexus 7 but during wipe process using JROM flasher something didn't go right and now I'm stuck at the google logo screen forever. I can boot into fast recovery mode but that's about it. I can't do anything.
I've had this done before on my nexus phone but it seems I managed to f it up this time.
I thought I had a rom zip file copied on to the Nexus 7 but it doesn't show in the menu. Now I'm stuck at the logo screen not having access to any roms to install. How do I reset all of this to factory? I've already checked most of the threads regarding this and haven't been able to find a solution yet.

before you do anything, use your recovery to see if the rom zip is located in /data/media/0/. if its there, flash it from that location.
Are you able to boot into recovery?
If yes, it could be as simple as plugging your tablet into the computer and mounting the usb, drag and drop the rom, and flash it without using a toolkit (only recovery). I'm not familiar with jrom flasher, but i will say the more variables there are, the more chance of a problem.
If no, you're best off running the stock factory image through your computer, found here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#nakasi. I had your problem at one point, and could not even boot into recovery. After trying to install cwm through adb (which failed), and a number of toolkits, the factory image was what brought my nexus back to life.
I remember reading that sometimes a wipe can delete your recovery as well as your system (and whatever else you have on your n7), although i dont know if that was ever fixed, as i got my tab replaced a month or two ago and havent rooted it again yet. There was some type of command or .zip or something that should be used to keep recovery after wipes. When i expirienced problems such as yours, it was also from a bad wipe from a toolkit. Using just the recovery afterwards, i never expirienced any issues, even without the recovery fix.
I would definitely try simms suggestion first if you can access recovery. If that fails, try one of the above processes.
PS, even if you can access recovery, if at this point you just want to go completely stock, the factory image will work regardless.
cheers
Thanks for the help guys, I've been struggling for the past 3~4 hours but I found a solution.
What I did was use JROMFlasher and upload a rom zip to the sdcard directly and go from there.

i have a nexus thats completely stock( out of the box) worked fine for about a month, let the tablet die and has been unplugged for about a week. got it charged up and and would not turn on. using the nexus root toolkit i was able to get to turn on. unlocked the device( unlock logo below google icon on startup) was unable to get past that point. now finally i can get past the nexus boot logo but it gets stuck on aindroid is upgrading " optimizing app 1 of 11" i cant root using the root tool kit bc when i unlocked device it got rid of developer options ( by what the msg said before i unlocked). im simply trying to get my device to turn back on. i dont plan to root or install a rom, im fine with the stock rom. i just want to damn device to turn back on. when i was able to power on the device when i first got it i did upgrade to the newest jelly bean rom. any one can help me on this issue ??
thanks
Boot into temporary custom recovery using Nexus root toolkit(Advance menu). Now wipe cash and devlock than try rebooting into system. If it doesn't work you can try factory reset. Last but not the least will be Flash Stock + Unroot(Soft brick/boot loop).
ok i wiped cache and devlock was able to to pass the nexus logo into what looks like another android is upgrading screen it got up to 14 of 20 and froze. between my 1st post and yours i was able to get android to fully run. did all the 1st time setup but after about a couple screen taps the device kept freezing and coming up with crash reports. there were a few times that the stock launcher even forced close. after a couple of restarts it finally quit again and would not even pass the nexus logo. ill try to do the other options that u stated in your post. any other thoughts ?

If the factory reset doesn't work just go for the Flash. I don't think you are much worried about the data so it's not a big deal for you. and I'm quit sure this is gonna work. Best of luck.
ok did that. went smooth but then once again it just gets stuck at the nexus logo. waited for over 10 mins like the notes say after re flashing and nothing. so i did a restart this time it passed the nexus logo, went to android is upgrading optimizing app and gets stuck at 4 of 11. being that this is pure android are there custom roms out there that i could try to flash via odin. ive rooted and installed roms before on my other android devices no problem but they were never pure google. am i missing something here. also what would cause a brand new nexus 7 just to go "ape ****" on its self.

Okay, that's weird!!!
Are you using Nexus Root Toolkit?? If yes are you using pre-downloaded android??
Try Automatically download + Extract.....
Last of all I'm really confused how there could be a problem when you got a fresh OS and Stock.
I agree with the messing thing that you told... Try checking and double checking everything... Check if you have selected the correct device or not.
And do a full wipe(including system) using TWRP before flashing again.
Edit: Make sure you are using the latest toolkit. You can get it from the link bellow.

I don't see a way how the problem still exists... :S
Whatever the problem is it's seems to be with android OS. But how it exists in completely new android. Sorry can't find a reason behind the problem. You can still try flashing any older android (like 4.1.2).
ok i got a zip of stock 4.1.2 and using the root tool kit i can install a zip via the twrp but it wont let me bc it says adb device not found and that developer options need to be turned on. im un able to turn it on bc i cant even get into the rom on the device.
thanks
ok i got it working. i was able to flash the older rom to my device and its working so far. no force closes yet.
thanks for everyone's help

I can't just think of anything else. Just telling you the things that I'd have done if I were you.
* reinstall boot
* change kernel
* turn off the auto update of android.
* try some costume room.
Don't throw it out the window you call always donate it to me if you really wanna throw it or make a drop test video...
Last of all just don't lose hope keep trying. you'll find out something surely and share it with us.

Hello guys
For some reason I decided to test out the CM and Slim 4.4 roms, but did not see that there were issues flashing with TWRP... so flashing failed with both these ROMS. I did not read the ops on Slim and did not see any warning about TWRP on the CM, so began wiping stuff to try make the flash happen, eventually wiped too much, and now I cannot boot the tablet. Worse is I have also wiped the zip files from the tablet so now I have PhilZ Touch CMW recovery but nothing to flash and this Recovery does not suppot OTG memory, so I have nothing to flash.
SO, tried my full version of Nexus 10 Toolkit to sideload the zip, but Toolkit never gets past "Toolkit Waiting for ADB mode".
I don't know the manual commands to try flash one of these roms, but at this point, I would be happy to just go back to stock, and cant figure how to get to Download mode, there is no home button on an N10.
It seems my safest bet, if possible, would be to get to download and flash a rom there.
Any ideas, much appreciated,
Mark.

From recovery power down your tablet and get into fastboot by holding volume buttons and power buttons at the same time. If this works then you'll be fine because from there you can get back to stock. Download wugfreshs nexus toolkit. Use the option to return to stock and check the one that says stuck in bootloop but can access fastboot (or something like that) then plug your tablet in while its in fastboot mode and go through the steps. It'll have to download stock factory image unless you already have it and browse to it but the toolkit will do everything and get your tablet working again. Don't worry too much its usually not as bad as it seems. The same thing happened to me and I panicked and it turned out to be an easy fix. If you need any more help or more detail on what to do just ask

Ok guys, I'm in deep trouble here. Kind of extremely desperate.
Please bare with my wall of text!
So I had just backed up my ROM, copied over the previous nandroid over to my computer and deleted it to make space for the new one. Made the new one, copied over the kernel I wanted to flash. Rebooted into recovery and simply flashed the kernel. That's where the screw-up started.
Wiped my cache and rebooted to a flashing purple and blue screen. Turned my phone off immediately and went to restore the backup I had just made. Not even midway through, I got "error while restoring /system". Nandroid is apparently no good?!
Now, I don't have anything on my SD to flash, not even a clean CM, another backup, nothing. I can only boot to recovery, if I try to reboot, I just get the google logo, then it goes off and back on, and so on. If I connect the phone to my PC, it obviously isn't detecting it.
I need a way to push or copy another nandroid backup or just a ROM over to my SD to flash something! I can't have bricked my phone!
Not too familiar with adb commands, haven't used them in ages!
I appreciate any help you can give me!!

As far as losing root, you shouldn't lose it, and there's no reason to believe that you might have already lost it, but if you are planning on flashing stock and unrooting then it wouldn't matter anyway.

I'm stuck!!!
I tried flashing stock and unrooting, but I had issues with what it said could be either my drives not being installed, or my USB Debugging not being enabled. I don't think I ever enabled USB debugging after this last time I flashed CM. I tried going through full driver installation, but I still hit the same wall with USB debugging not being enabled!!
What should/can I do?
Boot into recovery and connect your USB cable on it. Download an ADB standalone and place the files you want to transfer there, open it and type:
adb push (local of the rom/kernel/wharever) (path to sd/internal storage). it would be something like that
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/0/
this will transfer the file to the root of the internal storage.

I waited for over 5 minutes, turned it off, and tried booting it up. After another 3 minutes of nothing, I gave up.
Tried sideloading an old backup but wasn't able to sideload anymore..
Currently trying to do the driver things in the toolkit..
I may have screwed this up even more.
While doing Step 1, I again couldn't do the whole USB Debugging enable/disable, so I just went and did everything else that I could. Step 2 installed, Step 3 couldn't recognize my phone, just went back to Google bootloop.
I don't think I can even try sideloading stuff anymore.

EDIT:
Ok, sideloading CM again. Currently at 70%. I'll keep you guys posted.
Sorry to post 4 times in a row, but still stuck in the CM bootloop.
Is there anything better I should try sideloading? Maybe a factory image?
Something that would completely restore everything?
Sorry to post 5 (FIVE) times in a row!
FIXED IT! **** YES! I was running out of time too, have to wake up in four hours for work, hahahah.
I really don't know what happened this time. Tried running the Flash Stock + Unroot again, and it went through!
Going to enjoy stock for a while, this scared me way more than my previous adventures with rooting have, and I'm not entirely (but mostly) new to this!
Thank you so much for your help man, couldn't have done it without some support. Really feel indebt to the guy that made the toolkit, though. Thanks all around!

Than the device won't boot, it shows the Google logo twice, and then goes into the clockwork mod, where you choose to flash roms
and I am stuck.
I tried Nexus Root Toolkit, doesn't help because my device is not booting up, no way can it install the drivers properly...
and I think I did something more ingenious... I just tried anything on the Toolkit, and I got my rooted Nexus 7 locked...
But it's still the same, I am stuck at the clockwork mod thing just as before... Wiped whatever I can. and even formatted the sdcard and system...
Some Android Wizard out there... Please help...
If at boot you go to recovery directly... You have had to flash new version of recovery in wrong partition. You must flash it last version of recovery with "fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.IMG" (see 'recovery' as partition to flash). Then flash boot and system partitions from factory image (in XDA have you multiples threads about it) if you want to keep your data. If not, flash factory image from usual ways (this wipes your data) and then flash recovery like I say above.
After that, try to flash CM again.
PS: I recommend TWRP instead of CWM.

but its more serious than that... My computer doesnt recognize the tablet because of some driver issues... I am not sure, at this moment, whether the USB debugging thing still works
i can only get to the clockwork mod page, bootloader and thats it.
I cant flash anything, I cant transfer files from the PC to tablet....
please, please help.
bump!,
Im in a similar boat. I bricked my tablet while trying to force an update. It wouldnt autoupdate (there was always an error about cant find zip file...) so I tied to install it with Skipsoft program. After 20 minutes i realize my computer has frozen....So I waited 2 hours and nada. So I had to reboot my desk top. At that time my tablet is now bricked....what do we do?

hello friend.
1. we can pray
2. i think we have to look at some software that can do something more "fundamental" than wugus nexus tool kit, and communicate with the tablet
i am just guessing, i crashed my tablet, so....
