You have to be in boot loader mode.

Adb has to find the device before the adb and fastboot commands will work

I did the same thing to my 7 the second day after I bought it. What you described is exactly what I had experienced. This is what I did to restore my 7. I kept holding the power button until it turned off. Afterwards, I charged it for a while cause the battery was low.Then I got the tablet to go into fastboot mode by holding volume down 1st and then the power button. After that, I flashed using the Nexus 7 toolkit. Upon flashing, download 4.1.2 firmware using the toolkit and flash that to your tablet. 4.2.1wouldn't work for me. That brought my 7 back to life in new stock form.
In conclusion, I re-rooted using the toolkit and flashed a custom 4.2.1 rom using TWRP recovery.
If you can get your 7 into fastboot and your computer still will not recognize your 7, reinstall the drivers to your computer. I used PDA drivers. That worked for me.
I hope this works for you.
Is OK guys just use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=:D

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
Hi there,
Here's my problem : Recently i wanted to install the beta version of Android L on my Nexus 7. But during the installation, the "flash-all.sh" command took too much time to be executed (30 minutes insted of 20 seconds aproximately) so I quit the terminal while this command was processing and I unplug the tablet from my computer. After this, when I wanted to restart my tablet, I got stuck at the Google logo. So I tried to reset it by flashing the factory image but the real problem is that my computer doesn't detect my tablet when it's plugged in.
And now I don't have any idea of what to do.
Please tell me that someone here is able to help me !!
Hi,
Are you sure you're booting in fastboot? Also, make sure you have the correct android rules set up and that your fastboot and adb drivers are set up correctly.
Also, try flashing the img files manually. Another thing that may be useful for you is trying to post your issue in the Nexus 7 (2013) forum .
Good luck,
~Lord

The fastboot mode is the only "piece of software" that i can access so i'm pretty sure yes.
And how can i move my thread into the Nexus 7 (2013) forum ?
Hello,
I had installed the Franco Kernel on my N4 some months back. I recently got the 5.0 Lollipop OTA update but i could not install it. I read somewhere that i needed to install the stock kernel to get Lollipop installed. So i got the factory image of 5.0 for N4 from google and manually tried to flash with some Kernel flasher app i dont recall the name. THAT WAS THE WORST DECISION I EVER TOOK.
Now my phone is stuck in fastboot mode. I can go to recovery and all. Whwn i try to start up my phone i can only see a black screen.. i downloaded adb but the problem is I HAD NOT TURNED ON USB DEBUGGING. I searched the net for a week,asked my friends who all said that i should throw away my old( i dont consider it old) phone and get a new one. I have come here with a lot of hope. I bought the N4 so as to use it for atleast another year .
Adb doesnt recognize my phone. Pc says "Android Device". Please help me. Im saving for getting my sister a laptop and i just cant afford another decent reliable phone.
You do not need USB debugging for fastboot mode. when cionnected is should say android device and some serial number.
USB debug mode is when the android OS is running not fastboot mode
if it does not when connected at the prompt type fastboot devices
follow the install instructions here and it should get you device back. (in the commands remember to replace the file names with the lollipop names)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/how-to-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2010312
I have brought back at least 10 devices from my own doing and from people that screw up their phone and not know what they are doing.
Good luck
Ok i will follow it. I currently have the 4.2.2 image file. Yes in fastboot mode PC recognizes it as Android Device. Lets hope i can do it I dont need USB debugging right ?:silly:
I dont know how i should thank you and this forum. I love you guys, you helped me when i had lost all hopes of getting my phone back i love you guys <333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333
Glad it worked. Just spread the love on the forums.
I learned by reading here and glad to help others.
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
