Travisdroidx2 is right. You simply need to connect your N7 to a computer's USB port and then you can access recovery mode via the steps you mentioned or via adb. It's a bug that Google is going to fix eventually (I hope).

So I've been messing around with android phones for a while now and I'm stuck. I was on the oxygen 2.1.6 Rom then decided to make a back up. However instead of going into CWR it just went into fast boot. When I go into recovery it just says fast boot mode no reboot or recovery img. I tried to odin back to stock like I usually do but adb wont recognize my device like it usually does. Please don't tell me I'm bricked and that I messed up bad. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I tried reinstalling drivers etc etc. Somebody help me lol

It sounds like you flashed a bad recovery. Download a new recovery , boot into fastboot, and
Code:
fastboot flash recovery yourrecoveryfile.img

Adb only works when the phone is booted normally, provided usb debugging is on.
Use fastboot. If you want to make sure it's working, boot into fastboot mode and
Code:
fastboot devices
If it's working, you will see your serial number.
If the other options can't help you get your problem solved try Odin.
www.samfirmware.com
get the right files for your device and Odin program itself. There are tutorials on here how to use it.
sorry I was being an idiot. I tried fastboot and it showed nothing connected. When I flashed a recovery it just hung waiting for device. I have all the drivers loaded on the computer but my device is still unknown and wont be recognized. I have all the odin files and I have used odin before. This sucks
btw appreciate the help guys

Try installing pdanet, that will install all the drivers you need for fastboot and Odin.

my one click works on both versions, as all it does it just gets you root. if you want cwm then use rom manager afterwards.
but for his problem no it relies on adb and fastboot

Maybe not, but it does include some handy files. ;-)
Download and unzip Shabby's OneClickRoot
Install pdanet. (See the readme for which one.)
Reboot your computer.
Then try using his version of fastboot.
I'm assuming you are in fastboot mode (it will say so) and that you're using the usb cable that came with the phone.

Hey everyone, I joined xda to see if someone could help me with my problem. So recently I rooted my nexus 7 using wugfresh's root toolkit. I then installed aokp after i tried out paranoidandroid......i flashed gapps each time. I then wanted the old tv style screen off animation and using that toolkit, so i extracted the framework-res.apk ...........and i don't know what went wrong. Now all i can do is boot into the bootloader. When i try to go to recovery, it shows an open android with a caution sign in it. it just keeps bootlooping the aokp animation. I can't find any solution....help! i just want to go completely stock and lock the bootloader. it wont work with wug's toolkit.
Are you plugged in to your PC using the USB cable?
Yeah. Using the OEM cable from Asus. It charges and everything.....what do I do? I'm stuck and stressing about it.

Don't worry we will help you get it figured out. It's very fixable, mostly take some deep breaths and destress. When you start to panic then you have more of a chance of messing something up.
What happens when you use the command adb reboot recovery? what's the message you get? I'm guessing if you're extracting framework you're real familiar with ADB but if not use the toolkit.
Did ADB work before on your same computer you're on?

reflash your recovery via fastboot, not with a toolkit. then reflash your rom/gapps. if its still a no go, wipe then reflash your rom/gapps.

The message I get is error: device not found when I use the adb reboot recovery. And I'm not familiar with it at all. I was trying to get that TV off animation and I was following a guide. This is my first root. So far....not a good experience.

So i think all i need to do is flash the factory image. how would i go about doing this?
I have CWM 6.0.1.0 on my nexus 7. I was rooted but running the stock ROM. I wanted to flash CM10. I booted into recovery, wiped cache, dalvik, and factory reset. I then flashed the .zip file. When I rebooted the device it never got out of the CM boot screen. That circle just kept spinning. I tried the toolkit but the drivers aren't really working on my computer (crappy old XP laptop). I have formatted the system and SD card out of desperation which was honestly a stupid thing to do. So, where I am at now. I have no way to boot into android. Everything is wiped and formatted. Toolkit, adb, nor fastboot will work. I thought fastboot would save me but I can't get it work. Not even on my wife's mac. So what are my options? Please let me know if there is something important I am leaving out.
It can take a while to get a new rom up and running. How much time did you give CM to install before you interrupted it?

Thats possible. I tried re-flashing it numerous times but they all got stuck in boot. I am now up and running with SmoothROM. I might have to re-download CM10 sometime and try again.
Hey guys I now has a similar problem. I flashed a bad copy of my Rom and when it failed to boot I too wiped everything in desperation. I know I'm an idiot! Now I need to push both a Rom an kernal to my root directory but I'm not clear on how to install my kernal. Once I push my Rom I can use my recovery to install the Rom. But how do I install the kernel? I'm using cleanrom which comes zipped with the kernal. I can't fastboot flash it because I cannot turn on USB debugging. Gary

To use fastboot you don't need to have switched on USB debugging, it's sufficient to go to bootloader mode and connect your PC to it.

Hey everybody,
Yesterday I tried flashing a theme to SmoothRom and got caught in a bootloop. In a panic, I accidentally factory wiped my sd card and lost my roms so now I can't flash another rom to my Nexus 7. I've tried adb pushing a rom to the sd card, but my Nexus 7 is not being recognized in adb devices. I've tried everything to my knowledge but I still cannot get anything to work, even tried working on Mac and PC computers and my Nexus won't show up in adb.
I'm ready to count my losses as it is my fault, but I figured you guys could help out. I love my Nexus so if you guys know anything I could do I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Ok guys, I spent all last night trying to get this to work, and I'm still having problems. I tried adding the line to the driver inf file but nothing worked. I tried adding the PDANet drivers, but the Nexus of course is not showing up. I know that my Nexus is not doomed it's just something I'm not doing right, not gonna give up I'll keep at it. Thanks for the help guys, if anything have any suggestions let me know!
Sounds like you should find out if CWM touch can mount a USB flash thumbdrive via an OTG cable. You can avoid driver problems that way (as long as it works). The filesystem formatting of the USB drive with the highest probability of success will be a FAT format.
good luck

If fastboot is really dead, then you're out of luck. Have you tried running fastboot commands, however, after trying to boot into fastboot? Sometimes the underlying software will run correctly, even if the screen is nonresponsive.

My computer cannot detect the Nexus 4... I cant do anything like even load anything... I only go to recovery mode... I don't even know how to flash a rom? I deleted everything so theres no rom to flash anyway and my PC not detecting it is not helping.
Download and install this: http://www.wugfresh.com/
Follow the instructions on the driver installation and choose the RAW drivers. Seem to work better than the other options. Leave the phone in the bootloader. Don't touch the phone besides plugging it into the computer. Once everything is done driver wise, choose Soft-bricked/bootloop. Be sure that you have the factory image from Google itself. Doing this method will reset everything. So be sure to do any backups if you can. I'm not at fault if you ruin your phone even more.

Click on this link and read the instructions...then read them again and follow to the letter. http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ Andel7539 was pointing you in the same direction, just be patient and read the instructions. There is an option to reload the original O/S, then you can move on from there. Odin is a Samsung interface, not what you need for an LG phone. For what it's worth I did the same thing before by accident but had a backup (nandroid) just in case of emergency's which you should also have for situations such as this. When in doubt Google and read, Google and read!
Thank you... I still cannot do it because I cannot enable USB debugging. I've seen all the guides but they all require USB debugging and I cannot get into the phone to enable it? If I try to start the phone up it will just be stuck at the google logo but I can get into the fastboot menu and recovery menu too. Please help?
Also, do I need Cyanogen mod to use kernels? Or do I just need to root? I only wanted Cyanogen mod in the first place for better performance and battery life but I hear there are kernels that allow you to have both? Please guide me through this guys, I am very noob, sorry about this. Cheers!
Just for the record, bootloader/fastboot mode have nothing to do with usb debugging. Do you know at least how to boot to the bootloader? (Power + Volume Keys)
You don't need usb debugging to save your phone. Follow the instructions and you will do it.
And no, you don't need CM to use custom kernels, just a custom recovery to flash them and an version of the kernel compatible with your Android version.
Search about how to install adb on your PC and how to "sideload" zips in it. Then sideload the CM zip. Or search how to use fastboot and use it to flash the google factory image on your phone.

With the fastboot you can do it, or, if you're already rooted or running CM, install GooManager from PlayStore, go to options and select "Install OpenRecovery Script".
