So I am installing the Nexus 7 in my car as the head unit, but am now stuck with this issue.
I unlocked, and rooted the device, and used the fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0 command and it worked.
Anytime the Nexus 7 receives power it turns on.
However the device battery died completely and now when I plug it in to charge, the screen stays black, buttons do nothing, and eventually it boots up, but immediatley powers off as the battery is at 0 % and has the red ! mark.
I can't even use the fastboot command to reverse it since the device can't stay on.
What the heck can I do?
Type the reverse command and it will say "waiting for device". Connect your device and booting into bootloader even for a split second should push the command.

That's what I thought and I tried it, but nothing happened. It stayed in bootloader for about a minute but the command prompt stayed at waiting for device.
I'm not 100% sure but I think I used Nexus Root Toolkit to go back to the stock rom, which would have unrooted the device.
Which also means debugging is not active.
Does it need to be rooted and debug active to be able to push?
I know the bootloader still says unlocked.

Yes, but will the command be executed before the device dies again?

When you're in bootloader, you don't need debugging enabled since the fastboot protocol comes into play, not ADB (which requires debugging to be enabled). Root is also unnecessary. At least that's what I have learnt in the past 5 months I have had this.

No, you do not need be rooted or have USB debugging enabled to use Fastboot. What Android Bootloader Interface driver version do you have installed on your computer? Did you check by typing "fastboot devices" if your device is being recognized?

There is not enough time for me to set debugging on before the device dies. It stays on for maybe 5 seconds at the home screen then powers off.
Is there a way I could charge the battery a little bit bypassing the Nexus?
Can I splice in the pos and neg of the usb charger to the pos and neg of the battery?
I'd highly discourage the battery direct charging bit.

I'm not sure at all.
I used the R3 Nexus 7 Superboot to push the original command. I had downloaded fastboot from somewhere else, and put it in the Superboot folder to get it to push the command.
By the way sorry for taking so long to reply in between. Since I am a new user, I have to wait the 5 minutes in between posts.

Since your device was able to stay in bootloader for a minute, did you check if it was being recognized by your computer?

I am assuming it was, as Windows chimed in as soon as the device had enough juice to turn on.

Try booting into bootloader again then typing "fastboot devices". Also go to your computer Device Manager > Android Devices > Android Bootloader Interface > Properties.

Okay, I was able to get into bootloader, and I I did "fastboot devices" and nothing came up.
Also checked device manager and no Android or anything like it in there.

I see that it is coming up as unknown device under the USB section
I have tried the Nexus toolkit guide for installing the drivers to no avail.
When I try to update the drivers for "unknown device" and go to the path where they are, windows said the best drivers are already installed.

What I have done is use Nexus Toolkit to uninstall, like it says, anything having to do with nexus, google, samsung, etc. I reboot the computer, wait for the tablet to turn on for a few seconds and then windows chimes in and says the usb device malfunctioned and could not be installed. It shows up in device manager as Unknown Device, and when I try to update the drivers, it says they are updated and won't use the ones I chose.
Have I not fully uninstalled the old ones?

I'm not sure. I stopped using the toolkit and do pretty much everything I need now through ADB. Do you have another computer you can use?

Yeah I have a desktop I could try it on.
I've never plugged the Nexus in to the desktop, so it should be a complete clean install of drivers.
If Windows recognizes the nexus on the desktop, what should I do?
Do I need to uninstall anything it may install on its own?
I figure I will end up installing the drivers you previously provided.

I am preparing to root my beloved new Nexus S, but am just wanting to make sure everything is set before I venture off.
I'm a previous nexus one owner, and used fastboot and adb in the past following guides from on here.
Following another guide from here, i've managed to get "fastboot devices" to show my Nexus S connected, however, when I try adb devices, nothing is listed.
I run windows 7, in order to get the fastboot devices to work, I downloaded some drivers and installed them, and then an "unknown Android 1.0 device (as shown in Device manager) was recognised as an ADB device - so I assume i'm all good on the driver front.
Is there any specific mode I need the phone connected in to get adb to recognise it? I cant remember from when I last did it on my N1?

Sorry - my bad explanation. Before I got "fastboot devices" working, it was shown as an unknown android device. I downloaded and installed drivers and that then turned in to a recognised android adb device
I got that bit done, thats why I was still confused over why in cmd "adb devices" did not show anything listed - but yeah, all sorted now, thanks
Hi,
I tried a lot of other rooting applications and have had no luck with any of them. Then I found Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit. It works for my Nexus 4 (Jelly Bean 4.3) - until I came to the "Full Driver Configuration Guide" - where it gives a message: "ADB device was not found".
I have tried it over several times to no avail. Can anyone offer any clues as to what may be causing this?
btw, I am running the Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.7.2 on Windows 8.
Thank you,
David
I was just having the same problem, and I realized after a while that I was making the STUPID mistake of not noticing that my phone was asking me to confirm USB debugging when the toolkit started searching for ADB devices. If you're as big of a dummy as I am (or just having an off day), this may be your problem

I am having the same problem. Where/how does the phone ask you to confirm USB debugging? It asks me when I turn it on, but not again later.
I have tried 3 or 4 different drivers, but, although the device is recognised by Windows 8, it is not recognised by Root Toolkit.

I'm not quite sure how this was supposed to help. My problem is that the ADB drivers do not seem to work on my computer. I have just tried installing the Android SDK (which comes with its own ADB drivers), having first uninstalled all the existing drivers. It did not help.
Not entirely sure where to go from here.
PDAnet's drivers may work. Simply install PDAnet (after uninstalling any previous attempted driver installations) to get the drivers.

I had installed PDANet from within Root Toolkit, and it didn't work. Just now, I uninstalled everything again, and installed PDANet from their web site. Still get no ADB device in Root Toolkit. [NB I didn't have PDANet on the phone, but it seems to be there now]
I tried running adb from the android SDK, and it says "error: device not found".
However, I noted there was an adb prompt on the phone when I first plugged it in, this time (which I told to always accept).
[Later]
Wierd - it is now a bit further on. This is what I did:
Started PDANet on the phone, and enabled USB tethering.
Started PDANet on the computer, and it connected to the phone. At this point the USB debugging permission thing came up again, and I accepted it (also ticking the box to always accept).
Unticked USB tethering on the phone again.
Stopped PDANet on the computer (right click on icon, exit).
Tried the Root Toolkit again (pressed Root button), it connected to the device, and put it into fastboot mode.
The boot loader appeared on the phone, and the computer said "Checking Fastboot Status".
It seemed to stay like that for ever.
Killed the root toolkit. and tried again.
Left the computer for a while, and when I came back, it had completed.
So, it seems to be working now.
And when you try using fastboot directly instead of the toolkit....... what happens?
changing MTP to camera in USB connection mode did it for me...with MTP it showed correctly in device manager but the toolkit didn't recognise it

I type "fastboot reboot" at the command prompt.

I wait a few minutes.
Then I press ^C and the command prompt returns.
P.S. Changing the USB connection to camera doesn't make any difference to the above.

I got stuck the same way.
The way to got around was to change connection to camera -> the PC is intalling some drivers,
then turn off the USB debugging -> the PC is again installing some drivers,
then turn on the USB debugging -> "bingo" adb mode recognized by the toolkit
Now I can install and enjoy Kikat 4.4.1 :good:

I found the same solution, changing over from MTP to CAMERA suddenly had the toolkit recognise the phone and could boot it to unlock then root it... Previously, I had installed PDA drivers...
I am astonished how PATHETIC nexus phones/tablets are at simply connecting to a PC. I am baffled at the attempt by google to make their devices as UN-plug & play friendly as possible... bizarre! I have a N10, N7 and have had two N5's and all have the same PITA random disability....

So the Nexus toolkit is able to see the Nexus 7 as a media device but not Windows ?

So the Nexus 7 toolkit is able to see the Nexus 7 as media device with this method, but not Windows ? That's strange because Windows is supposed to see your files within the Nexus via Mtp mode. Is it that google removed the ability for Windows to be able to see Nexus 7 files in Android kit kat 4.4.2. What should I do then if I simply want to view files inside Nexus as a non root user ? B.T.W I'm currently on stock kitkat 4.4.2 build KOT49H. Therefore, I'd gladly appreciate it if anyone out there would answer this question and thanks in advance. Feel free to PM me on this so we can "talk" about this. : )

Success.
Well, mtp connection works perfectly fine in my Windows 7 machine. But on my xp machine I could never get it to work no matter what driver combination I used.
I can see the reason they changed to mtp but I found mass storage to be much more user friendly.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Free mobile app
as others, I was using WUG kit to get back to stock. I was stuck without USB degugging options. Installing PDAnet did the trick, installing drivers so that I was able to get WUG working. I am now stock. All traces on my tinkering are gone. Later this week I will upgrade to a Galaxy Mega and trade in my Galaxy Nexus that I have loved for 3 plus years.

Hi
Happy New Year to all! unfortunately I am left with the unusable nexus 7 that happened last night.
I was going crazy with the lags with lollipop and was waiting for the 5.0.5 update OTA but the delay was making me go crazy so I decided to take the risk of manually flashing the image using ADB and SDK.
Like many others pointed, I knew how to enable my computer to see my device by switching from MTP to PTP mode from my earlier rooting experience with Samsung, HTC and others. So that was not an issue for me.
I was following a tutorial from androidcentral and half way through I went to check a tutorial on youtube which I think caused the disaster. After I executed the adb devices no devices were detected and like I said I went and changed the MTP mode to off and bingo now my device was detected.
I executed device unlock and currently my device is in unlocked bootloaded state which is displayed in the fastboot screen where I am stuck now. Following the youtube instead of flashing each separately bootloader first and then the factory image I jumped to 'flash-all.bat' command...I saw something say on my command prompt on pc that completed in so many seconds or minutes which led me to get anxious and since no rebooting happened on the device I went and manually tried to press the power button.
From that time I am stuck on the fastboot screen. I can cycle through 'power off', restart booloader, recovery mode and start. But when I select 'restart bootloader' it comes to 'start' in the same mode and when I select that I can see a tiny 'Booting failed' in white letters in tiny fonts on the top left side of the 'Start'. I cannot go past this state.
Since I know the last time I had enabled 'usb debugging' and MTP off before everything went wrong I am presuming those states are still intact. I can see status on 'reboot bootloader' screen that my bootloader is unlocked.
Now, when I try to go through the process again my device is seen in device manager but when I send 'adb devices' command it cannot detect any devices. If my device is usable I can atleast go into settings to see if my MTP state and usb debugging status. Now I don't have that option. I even tried the Nexus Root Toolkit - everything is fine but until it tests the driver to finally say 'ADB device not found'.
After browsing so many posts I spotted there were some posts that said there is some discrepancy between the device id as listed by the driver to what actually is usb.inf, which all is too technical and overboard for me. And finally left me thinking that it is some issue of Windows PC as someone pointed that the ADB device was detected on a MAC. So I am now thinking to give it a shot in a mac machine as a final attempt to recover my device.
Anyone please suggest a solution, apologies if this is covered by someone elsewhere in the forum if so please point me there. I will make sure that from next time I will never do a manual flash of factory image.
please help!
It sounds like you are on top of it, but haven't hit the right combination yet. Thanks for the quote and I am sorry I am unable to offer any help. As mentioned in my post, I have switched to the Galaxy Mega and was pleasantly surprised by the OTA upgrade to 4.4. Now I am trying to figure out how to root it.
I have followed Heisenbergs instructions to the letter but when I issue the adb devices command it just returns the string "list of devices" and that's it. Fastboot devices doesn't work either.
So I'm stuck at the start. Can anyone help me? From what I can tell I may need drivers but I'm new to this so I don't know.
I can give anyone more info if they need it.
I believe part of the instructions are to install the Platform Tools, which should include drivers. Try running the SDK Manager and updating or installing the drivers again. Also ensure you have USB Debugging ON in your Developer settings and OEM Unlocking enabled. Lastly, tap the notification in your shade about the USB connection (I think it defaults to Charging Only) and change it to various modes. Mine seems to only work on PTP mode. When you run the adb devices command you will need to authorize the connection on the phone end the first time by clicking OK so make sure the screen is on and unlocked so you can see it.
Hope this helps.

but i am able to flash anything i want using fastboot....
try this command and see if it works after that... fastboot reboot-bootloader
it should reboot bootloader for u.. thats a easy way to know its responding to u

I had the same issue ,it was down to when I plugged the phone into the PC for the first time,it installed the Google.USB driver ,but it didn't install the driver for the adb interface,I had to download it from Google and install it manually
I also had the same issue, I had an old Clockworkmod generic driver that I was using for my Samsung Galaxy S5 installed.
Go to Device manager (either type it in the start menu, or: right click This PC, click manage, and click device manager), plug in your unlocked Nexus 6P phone and watch for a new item to pop up. If it says android something, uninstall it. I had to uninstall 3 times, then reinstall the drivers from the SDK before it would work.
I used the skipsoft toolkit to install the fb drivers; worked for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...ol-skipsoft-android-toolkit-nexus-6p-t3234159
but like others said, you may have to manually remove any that are already installed in windows, although I think that is one of the options in the toolkit.

Could be a driver issue. Check in Device Manager and make sure the device is recognized as an ADB Composite Device. Also, when you connect your phone, and do "ADB devices", make sure to touck OK on the phone screen also

Most likely this problem. If you don't see the option to touch OK, restart the phone and/or replug the USB cable.

My ADB device in Device manager has a warning sign next to it, i click and ask windows to fix this but it says "Windows was unable to install your ADB device"
I have this on my new laptop and new desktop PC, all have usb 3 connections
Just followed this guide and fingers crossed it seems ok, http://visualgdb.com/KB/usbdebug-manual/
I had installed Moto drivers and also enabled the usb debugging but my my device is not showing in fastboot mode.
Seriously need help.
Thank you.
Just to clarify, when you reboot your device into the bootloader (fastboot), if you type the command 'fastboot devices' (without quotes) in ADB, you get nothing showing up in the device list?
Which Moto drivers are you using, what device do you have and are you issuing the commands via minimal ADB or another ADB command tool?

Turn on your phone and run " adb devices " then see if it's getting connected in power on mode or not.. if not then try to install Adb Drivers..

It's same as you do in other Windows, go to "Device Manager" you will find device related name in that Tree,
Uninstall it and update again..

If installing drivers again, use of different USB port, different data cable don't work then better to use different PC..

If you're on Windows 10 with an UEFI firmware, I recall you need to disable driver signature enforcement if you wish to use fastboot. Credit to: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70792544&postcount=2028
Hopefully it'll work with the Linux distro though

This was very helpful. Took me hours to find it but glad I did. On to step 2. lol How I was able to fix not being able to load anything in fastboot was this.
1. I right clicked on the Motorola_Mobile_Drivers_64bit.msi and selected uninstall. Repair did nothing.
2. Rt click view properties of Motorola_Mobile_Drivers_64bit.msi.
3. On the general tab I noticed it was blocked so I unblocked it.
4. Then switched to Compatibility tab.
5. Selected run compatibility mode, any previous version of windows.
--This stops the version checker
6. Hit apply save and ran it.
