Long story short. My son went into recovery (TWRP) and wiped my rom. Not im looping at the google screen. I can access twrp and the fastboot screen. I tried to use the nexus 7 toolkit to restore it but it tells me the drivers are not loaded. I have tried everything I know. Every step to loading drivers says to check usb debugging...but I can't even boot a rom because I haven't got one on the tablet. Is there a way I can load a rom even though the tablet won't boot?
Using the NRT, check the box for boot looping/soft bricked, then flash the ROM. Using TWRP, mount USB storage in advanced, transfer the ROM from your PC, then flash.
Mounting USB worked! Thanks!

I followed the guides and unlocked & rooted my Nexus 7 tablet. It took a while, but I got it to work eventually. I'm rooted now, and I flashed CWM Recovery 6 (regular) and did a Nandroid backup. When I restarted from CWM, it asked me if I wanted to fix the tablet so that it wouldn't re-flash the stock recovery on reboot, and I said "yes" so I could keep CWM Recovery. However, the next time I rebooted and tried to go to Recovery, the tablet just hung at the Google boot logo with the unlocked padlock icon and wouldn't go into Recovery. I've reflashed CWM from the Rom Manager app, but I cannot get it to work. Any solutions?
Connect a USB cord to your computer. The custom ROM reboot to recovery function works but manually going to boot loader then recovery requires a USB cable connected to a computer on the other end.

Hello,
I recently unlocked, rooted, and CWM (Recovery) my Nexus 7 and everything seemed fine with a custom rom installed aswell.
Just now I edited mymedia_profiles.xml for 720p video mod and rebooted device now stuck at google screen. Even in bootloader when I select recovery it goes strright to google screen and stays stuck.
How do I fix this
If u can't get into recovery u could flash the nexus 7 stock image

when in the boot loader, plug in via USB then press recovery.

Thanks all for help sorted it out.
Re flashed the custom recovery using adb fastboot (Google Nexus 7 Toolkit) all fine now but strange that recovery failed.
After editing a xml file
Its a bug with the 7’s bootloader. You can't get into recovery directly from the bootloader without having the USB plugged into a computer or you can just select reboot into recovery from the power menu on PA or any CM based rom. There are a couple of apps that allow you to reboot into recovery as well like rom manager and rom toolbox... The modified XML file had nothing to do with it.
Hello everyone,
I just installed TWRP via goomanager and when i use "reboot recovery" in goo manager menu: TWRP works fine.
But when i use ROM toolbox lite for reboot into bootloader then i chose simply "Start" or "Recovery mode" i'm also stuck at google logo...
I don't understand one thing, we only can enter into bootloader mode with an android app, we can't do that when we power on the tablet for the first time?
Sorry for my approximate english.
Yes that is correct. Its a bug with the boot loader. You can plug the 7 into a computer USB and it will let you into recovery from the boot loader. This WILL NOT work with a charger though... I know it sucks. Hopefully Google will fix it in future updates.

Hard Reset Nexus 7 Working
For all those who have problem getting to recovery mode after connecting the USB cable to computer, follow the "Configure Drives" step from this link.

Its worth reinstalling the drivers if its already installed.
I tried rooting my nexus 7 (16GB 2013) with 4.3 installed on it today and I ran into an unusual error - It is stuck at the X logo after booting.
I have successfully unlocked my bootloader and installed a custom recovery - CWM v.6.0.3.7. I can access the bootloader and get into recovery mode fine. My nexus 7 is also showing up as an Android device only while in the bootloader - When I get into recovery mode it shows up as a portable device with a yellow exclamation mark next to it on my computer's device manager.
The problem is I'm not sure how to transfer any files to it in order to install any roms/fixes/etc. I can't boot and when I connect my tablet to my computer, while in recovery mode, it will not show up as a media device - So I'm not sure how to transfer any files to it. Also whenever I try performing a backup on CWM it gives me an error saying: "can't mount backup path." For some reason CWM can't mount my sd card, which I don't understand either. I'm hoping this is an easy fix, maybe I forgot a step but I don't want to try anything else yet without gathering more information about my problem. All I've done so far is installed the Android usb drivers on my computer, enabled USB debugging, Unlocked the Bootloader, and then Installed Clockwork Recovery Mod v 6.0.3.7. After the last step I am unable to boot or transfer files to the sd card.
Any help or suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Thank You!
Hi there! I have a unlocked Nexus 7 that used to be rooted. I did a wipe on it while it was rooted using TWRP and accidentally deleted the OS. Now when I turn my N7 on it just stays on the Google screen with the unlocked logo. I have tried using the Unroot + Flash Stock on Nexus Root Toolkit but I can't find the right driver as it can't connect to fastboot (And i am using the softbricked option). When I try to normally flash something it just goes to the google screen again and stays stuck. I need help with this!
If you can get into TWRP, you can mount a USB thumb drive which has an op system zip file on it. This way you can install a ROM. This worked for me.
hard reset my phone via twrp recovery and i accidentally wiped the system too. now when i try to reboot my device, it's just stuck on google logo. bootloader is still unlocked. fastboot and twrp are working perfectly too. i just can't figure out a way to push zip file to my phone. i trie using a couple of toolkits and all of them were stuck on device not found. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Boot into twrp, connect phone to the computer, copy rom to the phone, and flash from twrp.

i'm a windows user & my laptop doesn't recognize my device when i connect it. probably because it requires usb debugging to br turned on which i can't do because no os.
