Hi. Today I was running Gekbench 3 on my Nexus 7 and it froze up and shut down. When I turned it back on the boot animation froze, and it rebooted. When I try to get into the bootloader it goes to a black screen. I cant get the Nexus Toolkit to recognize it. Does anyone else have an idea. Im rooted, and am using TWRP recovery mode.
By bootloader, do you mean when you power up while holding down the Vol- button? (I'm shamefully borrowing someone else's image.)

Do you get USB notification sounds when you connect and disconnect your N7 to a PC? If you're familiar with using fastboot, does it recognize that there's a device connected?

You entered download mode. Just hold the power button for a few seconds. Make sure you dont hold any vopume buttons down when you turn it on in the future.
Assuming you where not trying to flash anything, it seems you entered the download mode by accident.
Most devices have button sequences that can be used at startup to enter various parts of the bootloader. You entered the one that is used to flash new kernals and roms to the tab (Power + Vol Down). Nothing has happened or will happen to your tab in this screen unless you are connected to a computer and using software to flash.
The second screen comes when you turn on the device and hold the vol up key. This is known as recovery and can be used to do backups of your device as well as flash new roms (with custom recoveries.) However, you can totally bork (to take a word from Ganj) your tab from this screen, so be weary if you ever enter this mode by accident.
Hope this is helpful!

I was messing around in fastboot on my nexus 7 and i saw that it said i could go into recovery. My nexus 7 is not rooted and the bootloader is not unlocked. It restarted itself and now is stuff at the google screen and it seems to have gotten very hot. I cant pull the battery. What is happening and should i just let it run til the battery dies?
Edit: had to let it die then boot normally
It died and I got this
The volume rockers don't make it go anywhere. Also pushing the power button did nothing.

While on this screen, press the PWR button and keep it pressed for about 15 to 20 secs. The NX7 will power off.
Hi,
I may not be looking at the right places here. If so, please provide me a link to a resolution to my query.
At any rate, as indicated on the subject, I can't do anything with my tablet.
It's a Nexus 7 (2012/wifi) / rooted / no custom recovery or anything / bootloader unlocked.
I recently flashed/updated to lollipop but found some battery issues. then I decided to downgrade to kitkat but had freezing issues.
when tried re-installing lollipop, it started boot-looping and then i got the following image:

}
it boots up from the Google logo with the unlocked symbol at the bottom and then shows the animated image above and then shuts down.
It does that everytime i turn it on. can't go into bootloader mode or anything (power+volume up/down does not work)
I hope I made myself clear and it's very much appreciated if anyone could help me.
Thanks
Same problem here, only APX mode available If you press power + volume up .
Try nexus root tool kit. Had a friend's nexus 7, that her grandson locked up. Used the toolkit to do a blind "soft unbrick" to get it back to normal and updated

I did a factory reset on m friend's nexus 7. I can access bootloader before because I flashed a factory image of Lollipop 5.1(4.4.4 before) then relocked it. But my friend decided to sell it and wants to erase everything in it so I factory resetted it in settings. But its already two hours and its still on erassing. I pressed vol up and power while on that screen and it is stuck on formatting data. I tried holding power button to power it off but instead it goes back to "google" logo then erasing screen. I tried powering down again by holding 10sec and after it goes black I immediately released power button and quickly pressed and hold it again together with vol down to access fastboot mode but it goes to google then erasing again. Anyone has a solution? My friend will surely get mad on me and it is already out of warranty. I never happened with my Nexus 5 before

Hi to everyone. I am new to XDA. I have a problem with Tab 4. My friend wanted to flash custom rom but he is noob about this. So I took the tablet and flashed the custom rom with TWRP. Everything went smoothly until it is stuck at Samsung Galaxy Tab4 screen. I attached the photo where it was stuck. I want to boot into recovery but sadly, home button isn’t working at all. How can I boot into recovery? Please help me ASAP. I can’t do anything to it now. Sorry for bad English.

The tablet is bricked. After flashing twrp, there should be a message in the top left of the screen about set warranty bit. The picture you posted is missing the yellow text. That's bad. Try putting the tablet in odin download mode by holding the home and volume down button plus power. Then press volume up when prompted. If you can get into odin download mode, reflash the proper twrp and try again.
If you can't get the tablet into odin mode, jtag recovery is the only option, a very complicated procedure.
