Hello guys
For some reason I decided to test out the CM and Slim 4.4 roms, but did not see that there were issues flashing with TWRP... so flashing failed with both these ROMS. I did not read the ops on Slim and did not see any warning about TWRP on the CM, so began wiping stuff to try make the flash happen, eventually wiped too much, and now I cannot boot the tablet. Worse is I have also wiped the zip files from the tablet so now I have PhilZ Touch CMW recovery but nothing to flash and this Recovery does not suppot OTG memory, so I have nothing to flash.
SO, tried my full version of Nexus 10 Toolkit to sideload the zip, but Toolkit never gets past "Toolkit Waiting for ADB mode".
I don't know the manual commands to try flash one of these roms, but at this point, I would be happy to just go back to stock, and cant figure how to get to Download mode, there is no home button on an N10.
It seems my safest bet, if possible, would be to get to download and flash a rom there.
Any ideas, much appreciated,
Mark.

From recovery power down your tablet and get into fastboot by holding volume buttons and power buttons at the same time. If this works then you'll be fine because from there you can get back to stock. Download wugfreshs nexus toolkit. Use the option to return to stock and check the one that says stuck in bootloop but can access fastboot (or something like that) then plug your tablet in while its in fastboot mode and go through the steps. It'll have to download stock factory image unless you already have it and browse to it but the toolkit will do everything and get your tablet working again. Don't worry too much its usually not as bad as it seems. The same thing happened to me and I panicked and it turned out to be an easy fix. If you need any more help or more detail on what to do just ask

Thanks Abdel, that worked fine... though I did spend about an hour on Wugfresh last night, it kept on starting to do stuff, then got to recovery mode and it stopped with wufgresh saying waiting for device or something... maybe shutting computer helped too... anyway, thanks for the advice, somehow it worked!

How are you certain your recovery is gone? You might just be stuck in bootloop. Your best bet is to use toolkit to get you into recovery. Whether Twrp or CWM. From there youcan flash a new kernel and see if it fixes it or use it to restore a backup.
I had similar issue where it was stuck on boot screen. I ccouldn't enter recovery normally. Only way was hooking it up to a pc. Then using a toolkit to make the tablet go into recovery. Then from there, I could use recovery on tablet itself and restore a backup. From there I was good again. Problem solved for me.
Try one of the other toolkits, like Sambra one. Make sure drivers properly installed though.

It's an easy fix, just use wug's toolkit and flash the stock Nexus 7 image. It will be like brand new. I don't think you had a very major problem at all to begin with just a minor bootloop, but this far along I'd restore it to stock and start fresh.

now i got it to the point where it goes back to sending system but it still stops, if i do relock the bootloader how would i unlock it? and if i did root it it wouldnt make a difference cause i cant get back to an os
Ok, I just started experiencing an issue. I suddenly can't get into recovery. Here is a little back history. My N7 was running CNA 3.6.6 (I know, but...), and I was bored so I decided to try ParanoidAndroid. Well, I have that gotta try something else feeling again, and when I try to get into recovery, it will go to the google screen, then go black for about 10 seconds, then go back to the Google screen and boot up. This happens if I reboot to recovery through the power menu, or getting into recovery from the bootloader. I even tried Quick Boot, in hopes it had some magic I didn't. No luck. The same crap. I even switched from TWRP to clockwork recoveries, and the same crap happens (I tried the same things I did originally).
Also tried through other apps too, like Rom Manager, Rom Toolbox, and TiBu. Everything works, but I am bored with this rom... I have tried turning it off, plugging the N7 into a PC and trying to get into recovery. Again, I can get into the bootloader, but as soon as I select recovery, it goes black, then fully reboots...
Anyone have any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Scheiße, I reflashed TWRP in fastboot, and I am getting the same result. I think my N7 forgot it has a recovery!? I will try flashing clockwork through fastboot and see if this works. Thanks for your help...
Edit: Clockwork does not help. There is no recovery for me. I am now at a loss. Hopefully someone will have some suggestions...
Finally got my recovery back...damn latest bootloader!
Yeah, this has sucked. I have spent several hours figuring out what the hell went wrong. It turns out its the latest bootloader. Others are having this issue. So, I had to go back to stock (which will erase EVERYTHING) and then had to re-root. Now that my bootloader is back to JRO03D, I am back up and running.
So, the first time I did this route, I decided to take the update and re-root my N7, and ran into the same issue. I could not get into recovery. So, I had to do it all over, this time not taking the update and not updating the bootloaders, and I am now back and already have a ROM running and everything installed.
If you want to go this route, here are a couple of links that will help...
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/28544-guide-nexus-7-bootloadersrecoveriesrootback-to-stock/#entry764328 and go to the Back To Stock section. The next part is for rooting (if you wish to do this yourself)...

Unable to get into Recovery after 4.1.2 upgrade... - xda-developers
Any help?
Ok guys, I'm in deep trouble here. Kind of extremely desperate.
Please bare with my wall of text!
So I had just backed up my ROM, copied over the previous nandroid over to my computer and deleted it to make space for the new one. Made the new one, copied over the kernel I wanted to flash. Rebooted into recovery and simply flashed the kernel. That's where the screw-up started.
Wiped my cache and rebooted to a flashing purple and blue screen. Turned my phone off immediately and went to restore the backup I had just made. Not even midway through, I got "error while restoring /system". Nandroid is apparently no good?!
Now, I don't have anything on my SD to flash, not even a clean CM, another backup, nothing. I can only boot to recovery, if I try to reboot, I just get the google logo, then it goes off and back on, and so on. If I connect the phone to my PC, it obviously isn't detecting it.
I need a way to push or copy another nandroid backup or just a ROM over to my SD to flash something! I can't have bricked my phone!
Not too familiar with adb commands, haven't used them in ages!
I appreciate any help you can give me!!

If you're talking about this one, reading the thread right now. About to download the windows version and try to flash stock and unroot, then root again.
Do you recommend anything else? I didn't want to lose root.

As far as losing root, you shouldn't lose it, and there's no reason to believe that you might have already lost it, but if you are planning on flashing stock and unrooting then it wouldn't matter anyway.

I'm stuck!!!
I tried flashing stock and unrooting, but I had issues with what it said could be either my drives not being installed, or my USB Debugging not being enabled. I don't think I ever enabled USB debugging after this last time I flashed CM. I tried going through full driver installation, but I still hit the same wall with USB debugging not being enabled!!
What should/can I do?
Boot into recovery and connect your USB cable on it. Download an ADB standalone and place the files you want to transfer there, open it and type:
adb push (local of the rom/kernel/wharever) (path to sd/internal storage). it would be something like that
adb push rom.zip /sdcard/0/
this will transfer the file to the root of the internal storage.

Just a thought, have you considered using TWRP? Are you sure it was actually a bootloop and not a boot that is just taking a little longer than usual to finish?

I waited for over 5 minutes, turned it off, and tried booting it up. After another 3 minutes of nothing, I gave up.
Tried sideloading an old backup but wasn't able to sideload anymore..
Currently trying to do the driver things in the toolkit..
I may have screwed this up even more.
While doing Step 1, I again couldn't do the whole USB Debugging enable/disable, so I just went and did everything else that I could. Step 2 installed, Step 3 couldn't recognize my phone, just went back to Google bootloop.
I don't think I can even try sideloading stuff anymore.

EDIT:
Ok, sideloading CM again. Currently at 70%. I'll keep you guys posted.
Sorry to post 4 times in a row, but still stuck in the CM bootloop.
Is there anything better I should try sideloading? Maybe a factory image?
Something that would completely restore everything?
Sorry to post 5 (FIVE) times in a row!
FIXED IT! **** YES! I was running out of time too, have to wake up in four hours for work, hahahah.
I really don't know what happened this time. Tried running the Flash Stock + Unroot again, and it went through!
Going to enjoy stock for a while, this scared me way more than my previous adventures with rooting have, and I'm not entirely (but mostly) new to this!
Thank you so much for your help man, couldn't have done it without some support. Really feel indebt to the guy that made the toolkit, though. Thanks all around!

I panicked and probably did something quite stupid...
So I tried to flash the new cyanogenmod rom to have a taste of kit kat, but then I had the status 7 error.
This never occurred to me before, I didn't keep a backup to fall back onto... ( yes, I am an idiot, I learned my lesson, the hard way)
Than the device won't boot, it shows the Google logo twice, and then goes into the clockwork mod, where you choose to flash roms
and I am stuck.
I tried Nexus Root Toolkit, doesn't help because my device is not booting up, no way can it install the drivers properly...
and I think I did something more ingenious... I just tried anything on the Toolkit, and I got my rooted Nexus 7 locked...
But it's still the same, I am stuck at the clockwork mod thing just as before... Wiped whatever I can. and even formatted the sdcard and system...
Some Android Wizard out there... Please help...
If at boot you go to recovery directly... You have had to flash new version of recovery in wrong partition. You must flash it last version of recovery with "fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.IMG" (see 'recovery' as partition to flash). Then flash boot and system partitions from factory image (in XDA have you multiples threads about it) if you want to keep your data. If not, flash factory image from usual ways (this wipes your data) and then flash recovery like I say above.
After that, try to flash CM again.
PS: I recommend TWRP instead of CWM.
Sent from my Nexus 7 (grouper) using Tapatalk.
but its more serious than that... My computer doesnt recognize the tablet because of some driver issues... I am not sure, at this moment, whether the USB debugging thing still works
i can only get to the clockwork mod page, bootloader and thats it.
I cant flash anything, I cant transfer files from the PC to tablet....
please, please help.

Im in a similar boat. I bricked my tablet while trying to force an update. It wouldnt autoupdate (there was always an error about cant find zip file...) so I tied to install it with Skipsoft program. After 20 minutes i realize my computer has frozen....So I waited 2 hours and nada. So I had to reboot my desk top. At that time my tablet is now bricked....what do we do?

OK so I know there is A TON of info on these forums.
I searched around but I did not see anything similar to my situation.
If there is a thread, please just link it and ill delete this thread.
Basically I had rooted my N7 back earlier this year and had a custom rom as the 5.0 OTA made my N7 run like crap.
It was fine until the last few months, it got REALLY slow. I didnt update it, or mod it other then flashing the roms.
So I set out to get a new rom. I figured id try the 6.0 AOSP rom.
DL it, as well as the GAPPS and tried to install it. All I ever got was a continuous error saying, "setup wizard has stopped".
Searched some more and saw that someone fixed it by installing a bare bones GAPPS and then WIPING Dalvik and cache immediately after flashing GAPPS.
I did this and no change. Still an error.
So I noticed that when I was in Windows, my N7 showed as having 5+/- gigs free out of 13gb.
So I figured let me wipe this whole thing clean and start fresh.
BTW- this has all been done with Wugfresh toolkit.
So I went ahead and erased/ formatted and planned to return to stock and then re-root and flash a 4.44 rom as I saw that on the grouper nothing over 4.44 works great and all I want is a stockish N7 that stays fast and works 100%.
Well now all I get is the Google scree with the Unlock icon and a green start icon and when you try to go into bootloader it says booting failed in upper left corner.
Any ideas hahaha.
Thanks!

I had the latest twrp recovery, I think 2.08 ?
I can't seem to get to the recovery screen.....only the bootload screen.
Well your bootloader is unlocked so you should be able to flash recovery again via ADB...when you are pressing the volume buttons to select recovery or bootloader is there an option for recovery? If so what does it say or do why you can't get to recovery.

Sorry I disappeared, I got busy with school and I just put the device to the side.
I am trying to get it restored but no matter what I do, wugfresh just hangs "waiting for device".
It finds it via ADB...
i tried doing a restore with my backup, tried flashing stock/recovery...
All I get it the main screen with Google and the unlock icon....If I hit the volume rocker I can jump to the bootload screen but when I try to jump to recovery it says "boot failed" in upper left corner.
Any ideas or is this thing toast?

NO!! Your device is not toast if it powers on then it should be recoverable, my advice forget WugFresh check out this page on how to get TWRP installed> https://twrp.me/devices/asusnexus72012wifi.html for latest twrp recovery, on this page you will find info how to get ADB running properly, once you have Twrp recovery installed try this Rom it is stock Lolliopop and runs great better than previous ones http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/development/rom-t2931064

Please let me know how you get on. also if you get TWRP installed wipe everything apart from internal storage before install Rom.

All I get it the main screen with Google and the unlock icon....If I hit the volume rocker I can jump to the bootload screen but when I try to jump to recovery it says "boot failed" in upper left corner.
Any ideas or is this thing toast?

Hi there and a happy new year .....well guess what iv got the same issue as well now and I'm also using WugFresh I can reboot bootloader from NRT but that's it can't get to recovery can't write to recovery can't flash recovery all I can do is to TWRP temporary via NRT ,but still can't write to it, I read somewhere that the internal SD is fried which is why I can't write to system which means can't flash Recovery or Rom which mean can't reboot system so unfortunately for us its looking like a new motherboard or new tablet.

OK Im back. Roughly an hour and a half. Not bad.
So what I did(if you're stuck on the bootloader screen like me)
Updated to the latest version of Wugfresh.
Made sure it updated all of the files it needed etc.
I then went through the process of uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers for ADB etc. I actually had an issue with it not detecting my device so it recommended installing the generic Google drivers....I did that.
Even after doing that, when I would check ADB connectivity it would say no devices found. I remembered that sometimes it would still communicate with the device even though it said nothing was found. I decided to do a fastboot format under advanced utilities because I knew that i erased it previously and I think that is where I ran into problems.
Sure enough adb found my device and formatted the bootloader no problem. I then continued with the restore to stock/w boot loop function and had patience...it took FOREVER to load the system image and then it took like 10 minutes to reboot but it did and I have a fully functional device right now.
I logged in and turned USB debugging on and re-locked the device. I then did a system wipe from inside the system and will sell it tomorrow.
So have faith, its not over till its over.
and p.s. I changed the USB port that I was plugged into. I have a USB hub that I usually connect too but I figured id connect directly to a USB port on the machine. Not sure if that helped, but people recommend it anyway.
