First off I'm new to androids and rooting and all but tried to root my nexus 7 2013 model unsuccessfully!
I was able to unlock the bootloader but skipped the step where i was supposed to reboot and enable usb debugging, now I'm stuck in the TWRP screen and cant root or even boot up my tablet normally. If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated I've been stuck with this for 2 weeks now and cant figure it out.
If you need any other info let me know. Thanks
You should start by posting in the right forum section. This forum is for the 2012 nexus 7

I am trying to install the mskips toolkit roo on my Nexus 10. I have followed the directions read the thread and watched the video twice. Once I unlocked it I got stuck at the flashing X, I have tried to boot into recovery (around 18 times now) and nothing happens, I know my N10 was seen by the kit my serial number was shown. It is telling me the the mtp usb is not installed. Now what? I know it is unlocked it says so. do I try to restart bootloader or just keep restarting it in recovery? I hope someone can please help me on this, I hope I didn't brick a brand new device. This is my first and by the way it is going last root ever....:crying:
fixed, for some reason after my N10 unlocked it wouldn't recognize adb, was able to download it again and I was good to go from there. mskip makes a great kit for beginners! thanks
I recently tried to get sky go working on my rooted nexus 7 by installing a program which would show the nexus as unrooted, when i rebooted the device it came on but the screen was blank but the lcd light was on.
I then decided to unroot and restore to original settings, I did this with the nexus root toolkit everything went through fine but the nexus is now stuck in continual bootloop and I cant enable usb debugging because I can switch the nexus on.
I cannot get into recover mode the message comes boot failed neither can i start the device again it says boot failed
I've had a look at other threads but cant seem to find a solution when you dont have access to usb debugging mode. Please help

I was driven crazy by exactly the same problem as you but I found a solution from here and elsewhere. i.e. two different sites.
See my post:
Booting Failed Bricked Nexus 7 - 2012
on this forum today.
The bulk of my help came from another site but the final steps were completed here.
I am a new member here and I wouldn't like to be banned for providing a link to different site here. If the mods give me permission I will help you but until then you can always email or p.m. me.

i checked kindered moles posts and saw that i needed to flash a different version of bootloader which is available http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45043044#post45043044
once i completed that I went to flash stock + unroot make sure to tick soft bricked/ boot loop undereneath and then hey presto everything worked
I am a noob with all of this android modding/hacking/flashing stuff and would like some guidance. Right now, my nexus 7 is in a state that cannot boot. When powering on, it remains on the Google logo and does not progress. I am able to get the the bootloader and recovery screen though. I do not have USB Debug enabled. I would like to return to the stock image or the previous version I was on. This all happened when trying to upgrade manually to the Android 5.0 update. Is there anybody that can help me with this? I would gladly appreciate it. I have been struggling to find an answer but its hard to understand what some people are saying.
Again, I cannot turn on the USB Debug option because I guess its "soft bricked" or something.
Also the bootloader state is locked.
Tried to root nexus 7 2013 with android 5.0 lollipop oficial with the last version of nexus rot toolkit, my tablet didn't reboot, and it's stock, can't enter in fastboot mode, can't enter in recovery mode, my pc don't recognize it just in something i found is call apx, don't boot, i've tried almost everything but doesn't work for me, i don't know what to do.....
Please help me, if somebody have the same trouble please reply.
I'm from Colombia so my english isn't good at all, so you can ask if you don't understand to me.
Thanks...
Nexus 7 "Soft Bricked", in never-ending Boot Loop, need help in simple terms
I have a Un-Rooted Nexus 7 2012 32GB (bought new in Nov 2013) that suddenly and for no reason "soft-bricked", stuck in a never-ending
Boot Loop (swirling/spinning 4 color circles). I still had Android
4.4.4 running on it, except for the typical slacker stock Launcher
hangs and not responding, it was running pretty good.
I have tried a few time to do a "factory reset" from the Recovery Menu
(Pwr & Volumn Down procedure) and nothing, also tried before that the
Cashe Clearing. Nothing gets it to Factory Reset, just another Boot Loop.
I have never tried a Rooting of an Android device (though I've been in
Windows and IBM Network IT engineering for 25+ years.) Can someone
help me step by step in near layman's term to restore this Nexus 7?
I'd actually rather NOT Root it for a custom ROM, just get it back to KitKat 4.4.4 (Preferred) of if I have to LolliPop 5.1 which I have experienced is the dead end for the N7's (2012 and 2013's) since my older N7 2012 8GB refuses to update to 5.1.1.
Appreciate the step by step help. If you're recommending a PC program
I need to use, please supply the link to the exact version to
download.
Thanks
Hi,
U can unlock ur nexus 7 bootloader and then flash the stock ROM using the Nexus Root Toolkit. Use this to unlock bootloader. Then on the right side ull see a flash option. Under that select bootloop and then click on flash. It should get u out of bootloop. Then relock bootloader if u want. Before using it check whether u have the proper adb drivers installed.
NRT- http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
U can get the stock ROM images from(if needed) - https://developers.google.com/android/images
Hit the thanks button if it helped!
How can I use Wugfresh or any PC App to access the BootLooped N7 2012 when it never starts?? It never gets past the spinning 4-color dots.
I've been to the Wugfresh site and noted that it says it's only compatible with N7 2013 models and up.
Also, where can I download the OEM pure KitKat 4.4.4 ROM?

Boot into the bootloader and connect it to the PC. If u have proper drivers it will recognise it. The link I have to the NRT supports N7 2012(see ss). U can download the stock rom from the 2 link I've given.
Select nakasi for N7 2012 WiFi or depending on ur model
