[Q] - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my nexus 7 OS was accidently deleted and my bootloader is locked and all i can do is load recovery which has been changed to team win recovery projects TWRP, is there anyway to restore OS from team win recovery! if anyone can help would be much appreciated!

You probably need to start from scratch - flash a factory image, then install TWRP and then you can flash your backup. Mskip's toolkit can do all this for you.

4.2.2 recovery help

Hi! Im a noob with a couple of questions hope anyone can help me...
I was recently at 4.2.1 on my nexus 7 had twrp installed, and accidentally updated to stock 4.2.2 my cstom recovery wash flashed by a stock one and forced me to install another via fastboot, but this time i installed cwm then i decided to go back to twrp coZ i dont personally like cwm,. So here is my problem i used rom toolbox to reboot into recovery and it said that i have a cwm installed but when i rebooted i was on twrp, its confusing did i installed both? And made me decide to use rom manager it said that i have twrp and cwm already installed how can i uninstall cmw...
Hope u could help me.. Anyone?
ROM manager plays a clever trick where it temporarily replaces the recovery, even though it is not flashed into the recovery partition.
If you start the recovery from the bootloader, you'll see TWRP; and if you boot into recovery from ROM manager, you will (eventually) see the CWM recovery (you may see some graphics produced by TWRP first, though).
If you have a way (separate from ROM Manager) to boot from the OS into the recovery, you will get TWRP.

Hi thnx for the help, actualy i was able to boot into twrp already and i belive i flashed it completely, my only concern is did i overwrite the cwm in my rec partition? Or it is still there?

There can be only one bootable image in the recovery partition at a time.
If you boot from the bootloader into recovery, and you see TWRP... then that is what is flashed there.
If you want to see what I am talking about, go into ROM manager and select the menu item that causes a boot into recovery. What you will see (after a little bit) is the CWM U/I.
What is going on is that ROM manager boots whatever recovery is actually flashed in the recovery partition, and then immediately replaces /sbin/recovery with it's own version (CWM) and then kills & restarts that same program.
So - what you *see* is the CWM version of /shin/recovery - running on top of the kernel & ramdisk were provisioned by the whatever recovery was actually flashed to the recovery partition.
If you want to actually flash CWM to the recovery partition, ROM Manager has a menu item for that. I'm not sure what the exact wording is.
If you are confused by this, just read the first two sentences in this post.

Help!!

hello, I had a version of cm10 installed on rom slot 1 of safestrap, and then I unlocked my boot loader, and installed TWRP recovery, I tried restoring the backup of cm10 I had made on Safestrap, and now I'm in a bootloop and I can't access TWRP recovery. I would really appreciate some help.
EDIT: Never Mind I found a way to go into recovery and was able to restore the backup of my stock rom.

Need help in flashing CM 10.2

I recently got a nexus 7 2012. I unlocked it and installed the custom recovery (CWM) according to the guides given in the forum and elsewhere. The problem comes when I install a custom ROM like CM10.2, It installs fine, but the boot does not resume after the CM animation. I tried another rom like AOKP and even TWRP as recovery, still the problem persists. My bootloader is 4.23 and flashing back to stock ROM works as normal. Please help.
What recovery you use. And what tool you use to root. For I use WUG toolkit. And install TWRP. And install CM 10.2 with no problem. Maybe you not really root. Update your superuser before that

Stupid question: are you sure you are flashing grouper ROMs?
Tried a lot of combinations with ROMs and recoveries finally I solved it. CWM wasn't working with its wipe options and tried TWRP and gave the full wipe of all partitions before flashing CM and gapps and it worked!!!!

[HELP] Help! Rooted Galaxy S4 GPE Only Boots to CWM and Won't go to ROM.

I Got a GS4 GPE today, and after updating to 4.4.2 I went right to rooting it. I unlocked the bootloader, fastbooted CWM 6.0.4.4, and adb sideloaded SuperSU 1.93. I booted up and it was all working great! But the CWM recovery didn't stick from the fastboot, so I downloaded the manager to install it that way. After doing that, I now can only boot to CWM recovery (I can get to Android Default recovery and the bootloader, but no matter where I try to reboot from it keeps taking me to CWM. I'm guessing part of my stock ROM is corrupted? If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it greatly... I wiped dalvik and did a factory reset from within CWM, but it didn't help. Does anyone have a stock (maybe rooted) ROM that I could install in case this is actually corrupted? Thanks!

OS erased

I have erase the entire OS from the phone...
what can I do?
HELP me please...
if I flash TWRP the recovery works but all the other stuff desn't work...
have I to send in assistance the phone?:crying:
someone has a fullworking twrp backup ?
Just flash a stock rom back from fastboot, with the stock recovery.
Run fastboot and flash the system.app and the recovery.app from a stock rom, many tutorials are on the forum, for the several EMui versions.
I flash stock recovery but doesn't work
I have the same problem yume-smart has.
I tried to flash through fastboot any possible file extracted from every update.app available on internet.
No way! Of course we must have done something terribly wrong, our fault.
As far as I can see I must have broken 3rdmodem partition and someone suggested that also curver partition must be messed up.
Only thing working: Fastboot, TWRP recovery (if flashed from fastboot) and the Honor 7 is trying to download something through the USB if i do the three button dance to force update. But it hangs at 90%.
I fear I should try to find (if exists) a FULL FLASHABLE ROM like Nexus has or a TWRP Nandroid backup from someone willing to share.
Thanks for suggestions.
