how do you know for sure its not recognizing it in bootloader?
When I plug in my nexus I can't do anything. The hardware buttons don't work. I don't see anything in the drivers when I plug it in either.

Well, just to let you know, you haven't bricked it. Bricking something means you can't access the device what so ever i.e. it won't boot, won't go into recovery/bootloader mode etc. As to fixing it, I'm not sure. Can the device turn off and on? Have you got drivers installed properly (was fastboot and adb working before this happened)?

I am sure you tried every option , have you tried adb reboot recovery command, when u turn on phone, or adb reboot bootloader. If the manual way does not work, for example when device is powered off (volume down then holding power for 10 seconds). Let me know. Need more details.

Hi I think I'm facing the same issue as poliati. I tried to flash it back to stock image but the process freezes at "sending 'system' <438656kb>. Can someone please help?

So rebooting isnt the problem but getting into recovery or even getting my computer to recognize my device is what i need help with. The entire thing freezes when im in bootloader and try to plug into my computer. So i have to reset by holding down the power button. Ive installed and uninstalled drivers through wugfresh toolkit and nexus 7 toolkit.

That doesnt work either. The thing is, I can use the volume buttons BEFORE I plug it in, but as soon as I plug it into a computer the tablet freezes and i have to reset it.
So ive uninstalled all drivers including the SDK and reinstalled everything and im still stuck at the bootloader. Im starting to believe that its pretty much a lost cause. Can anyone help with trying to figure out what i may have to do now.
If you can get into the bootloader, you're not bricked, nor is it a lost cause.
Since you uninstalled them reinstall the drivers. Download the factory image (nakasi) from here, and then follow these instructions to use cmd and fastboot to reflash the stock ROM.
Ok I will try this.
Freakin love this site!!!
OK, so i now have everything up and running after about 2 hours of uninstalling and installing everything. Turns out that my cpu (or me) was duplicating the drivers. I feel dumb for that
Hi
Tried to flash a new kernel and all seemed ok (flashed phones and nexus 7 few times now) when I came out of flashing I hit a bootloop, I though nothing of it and tried to restart....same issue, so next I tried to go into cw recovery, no joy, it will not show again.
I can power/vol keys to android fastboot screen with start power restart boot and so on but if I choose recovery nothing happens, I am stuck with either a bootloop or stuck on android fastboot screen and not able to move from either.
I have tried the toolkit and most other things but the problem is it cannot see my nexus 7, even after installing drivers and so on the toolkit (top right) does not list my nexus as found, because of this I cannot reflash any stock firmware/recover/reflash cwr.
Not sure how I can get around this if my pc cannot see the nexus 7.
Thanks for any help

Hi
I cannot flash anything. On the fastboot screen I can scroll up and down powr off/start/recovery....if I choose any (apart from power off) nothing happens.
When I hook it up to my pc it cannot see it, nexus 7 toolkit also cannot see it, it does not list it as found so I cannot flash anything on to it, if I try it just says waiting for device, tried other things and same thing either waiting for device or asks if fastboot installed.

You are already at the bootloader screen. Use your computer to fastboot flash a new kernel. Being able to get into recovery has nothing to do with it. You screwed it up flashing a kernel. Its likely thats all you need to fix it. Flash a new one with fastboot.

How did you get it to work? I have problem getting my device to be recognized. Stuck on boot loop too..
Hey man, how did you get your computer to recognize your device? Would be great to finally fix mine as this is the same exact problem -- computer doesn't recognize it even though in fastboot.

I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do, sorry: you said the pc does not see the nexus, "even thought in fastboot".. If you say even thought, it seems to me that you are able to access Android itself or maybe recovery? In that case I can't see the issue.. Sorry my fault, non english mother tongue
But, if have the device soft bricked and you are able to enter ONLY the bootloader (that is what we call often fastboot), then you should start to remove the not working fastboot drivers installed into your PC: launch the nexus in fastboot mode, go to Device Manager into your PC and search for a driver with an yellow exclamation point. This issue is very common so I hope that you have it, too.. So, uninstall that driver, then unlink the nexus from your PC; after a few seconds attach it to another USB port and see if Windows install a driver (it should). If this new driver doesn't work, too, or if Windows does no install any, try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502
Hope it helps, let us know, see you!
EDIT: also, if you still have no luck, you should find a Linux or Mac PC/laptop and download the adb/fastboot binary files for that OS; this will definitively solve your driver issue ( @#ò#@!"@# Winzozz )

Hi sorry for not being clear. Basically I am only allowed to access the bootloader and my device is soft-bricked. I'm pretty sure I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers about a year ago when I originally did it, but I'll try again and let you know. Thanks!
Hi folks,
My wife dropped her 2-week old Nexus 4 which caused part of the front glass to crack and portions of the touchscreen to be dead, so we had to send it into LG for repairs (at quite a price tag). Fine.
So we get it back, I turn it on, and it's in something called "FTM Mode" (file transfer mode, I think)? I can't seem to get it out of it.
Things I've tried:
Rebooting (have to hold the power button down for 5-10 sec).
Factory data reset (the settings are available through the notification menu in FTM Mode).
In recovery mode:
[*]Start (goes right back to FTM Mode)
[*]Power off (duh)
[*]Restart bootloader (gets me right back to the same screen)
[*]Recovery mode (gives me a little android with its stomach open, a red exclamation point, and says "No command.")
I attempted LG support, but they asked me to do a few of these (after asking me to hit the "home" button...), then told me to mail it back to them because they probably have to flash it.
So, the obvious question: how the hell can I get out of FTM Mode?
Secondary question: if none of the above worked and I do have to flash the OS, can I flash it myself to default Jellybean? Any idiot-friendly step-by-step guides out there?
Here you are! (I was the one talking to you on Reddit)
Since you can get to fastboot you can just flash the stock image files and you should be fine! The toolkit is in the original dev section but you cannot download the images from it anymore. A few people here have the images though so hopefully someone will pop up with them shortly

No worries! You can use the toolkit without knowing fastboot, I just recommended learning it in case you ever need to flash without it. I believe after you download the toolkit there will be a folder you can place the stock image into then you can use the toolkit to flash the image from that folder. I'm not 100% what folder that is though but I believe the name makes it fairly obvious if you look for it

Unfortunately, I haven't even been able to install the bloody USB driver, so fastboot/adb can't even see the device. I've described by problem here. I think the source issue is what LG did during repairs... the device is named "Full JellyBean on Mako" instead of something like "Nexus 4", so the drivers in that post aren't being recognized by Windows as valid for the device. At least that's my guess.
OK, got it all fixed.
This post was incredibly useful. Once I got the USB drivers installed and fastboot recognizing the device (oddly, adb wasn't able to), it was extremely smooth unlocking the bootloader and flashing the image.
Thanks!

For future reference ADB only works in recovery and when booted into android, never in boot loader. Bit glad you got it working

I believe I've hard-bricked my Nexus 7. I'm not stranger to flashing, etc., but something must have messed up this time. I was previously running stock Android 4.3 with TWRP recovery and my tablet took the OTA update. The update of course failed because of the root and recovery, but instead of going back to Android 4.3, it wouldn't boot past the fastboot screen (bootloader screen? with the green android).
So, planning to return to all stock, I downloaded the official Android 4.4 .tgz file and extracted it to my platform-tools folder for the Android SDK. I ran "flash-all.bat" as explained in this tutorial: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...stock-using-a-full-factory-image-and-root-it/
Something must have went wrong because the screen went black and will not turn back on. When plugged into the PC, it is recognized as only an "APK" device. Sources online indicate that this is hard-bricked, as there is no "nvflash" openly available for the Nexus 7 to restore the bootloader.
1. What happened and how can others prevent this?
I think I should have flashed each partition individually (i.e. boot, recovery, system, etc) instead of "flash-all." Any idea what happened to the bootloader? Any other ideas on how to restore the bootloader?
2. What to do now?
EDIT: Apparently my device is out of warranty. Crap.
EDIT 2: Apparently I accidentally downloaded Android 4.4 (KRT16S) for the Nexus 7 Mobile (nakasig) and not for the Nexus 7 Wifi (nakasi)... Opps!
There are several Nexus 7s on ebay with cracked screens, etc. If I purchased one of these, what would I need to pull from them to fix this?
Thanks for your assistance in advance! This forum is great.
What about pressing and holding power button for more than 30 seconds?
Once it could boot and you could enter into fastboot mode, then I think you would get a chance to save it.
BTW, I did mess up when I was flashing KRT16O factory images, which was the earlier release for Kitkat.
At that time, I just used the flash-all.bat like you did. And in the second round, I still failed when following and typing the listed commands in flash-all.sh.
So I chose to use nexus toolkit after that.
Thanks for your reply.
I keep trying that, along with the various other combinations of power button and volume down and volume up. Nothing. The most that happens is when it's plugged into the PC, the PC makes the sound of something being connected and disconnected. I just tried unplugging the battery too. I'll let it charge over night and try again tomorrow.
When yours failed the first 2 times, you were still able to get into fastboot? You're right, if I can just get there then I'll be alright.
Thanks again.
I was just backtracking my steps and realized the mistake I made. I accidentally downloaded Android 4.4 (KRT16S) for the Nexus 7 Mobile (nakasig) and not for the Nexus 7 Wifi (nakasi). Major opps!!
1. Any way to recover from this brick? My gf also has a Nexus 7 (2012). Anything I can copy from that to restore mine? (if she even lets me touch it after she hears about this!)
2. There are several Nexus 7s on ebay with cracked screens, etc. If I purchased one of these, what would I need to pull from them to fix this?
No problem,bro. I think you can always get responses here at XDA though I didn't help you out.
And yes, I could still enter into Fastboot at that time.
However, I was not able to reboot my N7 using the aforementioned methods since it got stuck in Google logo.
Hence I removed the batterysilly, booted it and used the key combination to get into Fastboot. And you know the rest, used the toolkit....
My friend if u can enter fastboot then u can definately revive ur device, it is soft brick not hard brick (soft brick = software is dead) (hard brick = hardware is dead)
I do this all the time just for fun
Let me give u step by step instructions.
1. Download this tool kit
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
2. Download the proper stock image for ur device (make sure u pay attention when u download the file, u definately dont want to download wrong file and then redownload the file again)
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
3. Install toolkit, Select your device and don't worry about android version because u have non rit now and install the proper drivers for fastboot to work.
4. From toolkit main screen, select (softbrick/bootloop) and accept the warning.
5. Now select (Other/Browuse option) and then select (I Downlaoded a factory image myself) option then it will ask for the image that u downloaded from google website (Step 2).
6. If u have done exactly as i said then ur phone should be detected in Fastboot mode and the flashing would start and after some time phone should show loading screen (os is booting) wait for it to boot and enjoy ur stock android.
7. Enjoy.
FYI u should have enough battery (around 50%) and to enter fastboot mode u just have to boot to bootloader (restart/ power on the device while pressing volume down button) u should see the screen with bunch of numbers e.g bootloader version etc.

Hmm... there is a thread on making it unbrickable, but you have to do that ahead of time. If you were to buy a broken tablet, you'd probably need to replace the motherboard.

Well, now isn't this weird... I unplugged the USB cable from my PC and then plugged it into the wall charger. After waiting a while, I was able to boot the Nexus into the "wrong" bootloader. I immediately flashed the correct one, and now am running the latest factory image.
@zamboniman87 -- I did find a thread on Android Central describing a situation in which someone erased their bootloader. The thread contains a tool that a couple folks claimed to help fix the problem. You might give that a try.
Lucky you! This gives me hope though. I'll check it out. Thanks!

Hi, this is my firt post, i'm going to quote this problem that's the same problem that I have...
"Device : Nexus 7
Problem : I was trying to unroot it and flash a 4.4.2 ROM to the device and i ended up bricking it somehow. I looked around a lot on here and youtube. I found one solution i had not tried which was to get into recovery mod. But the device was stuck on the boot loaded. So i hard shut it down, and pressed the key combination to load the boot loader. And, the screen wasn't loading. I heard the little chimes my computer makes when ever a USB device is active, so i heard the thing load into the boot loader. But its not showing on the screen!
Please help i really shouldn't have done this. But i am literally about to cry.
I tried using Wugfresh's Nexus toolkit to flash the ROM, and it would stop on sending system.
I dont know if i did something wrong, if the kernel was messed up, if the kit wasnt right, please as the video said there is 4 million members here. someone has to know what to do...

I did exactly the same thing that this guy did... ----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2345874
The difference is that I don't live in USA and my Nexus doesn't have warranty... What can I do T.T my pc shows the tablet as Unknown Device and makes a sound when I puggle it, there has to be something that I can do >.<

No, I can't. The screen is completely black.
Have you tried any of the suggestions in the thread you linked in the OP?

Do you get a charging icon when you plug in the n7? did you try a diffrent cable?What exactly does ur computer do when you plug in the dead n7 (does it thy try to install a apx driver) Does toolkit see tablet like its in the bootloader? If so try to flash a new bootloader!
try this found in another thread
To get it out of AXP mode, the correct instructions:
1. Plug in the usb into computer
2. Hold Volume Down + Volume Up + Power simultaneously for like 15 seconds
3. The bootloader should show up.
4. If it doesn't, unplug the usb cable, and plug it back in and then repeat the these procedures
Wugs tool kit
First when you plug it in hold all three power buttons
Second
I also have used the tool kit it gets stuck all the time on the flashing system. I think its a time out error because of the complexity of extracting the image and flahing the image with out a retry or check command. Here is a fix that i have figured out. When in Wugs tool kit download the Os Version you want on your device locate the folder with the downloaded image and extract it using 7 zip. once extracted flash the remaing .img files seperatly under andvance setting menu select flash system then user data it should boot right up. if you forgot what version you flashed previously flash all img files boot bootloader system user etc. if you still have problems let me know. i can give you my email.
Click thanks if i helped

My tablet doesn't show the charging icon, I've tried with different cables, when I plug it to the laptop it makes a sound and shows an APX driver... I'm stressed and that instructions didn't work for me.

Unfortunately it sounds like you erased your bootloader and nvflash can do nothing for you unless you used the unbrickable mod before u f'ed up your tablet. Try sending it to asus for Warranty tell em you installed the ota update and it wouldn't boot up afterwards. I have read many threads about this issue with nobody being able to recover there tablet. Asus does have global warranty
