So my nexus won't charge unless its off.. and it won't connect to my computer either. I can't send it in to Sam's club (or can i?) if its rooted. I needdddddd some major help figuring out some way i can replace it... a way to unroot + lock the bootloader. Please? anyoneeeee? By the way... i have no idea how to use adb and stuff because i used a one-click script :/
Things like this is where I really hate how there are one click scripts.
If you aren't knowledgeable about what the tool is doing, don't do it.
Since its probably easier for you to just use another one click tool, use Wug Fresh's one click and use "Return to Stock"
Please, for the love of god, don't do this to your device if you don't know what you are doing.

He said he can't connect to his PC (broken USB port, I guess).
You may be able to unroot it, but you probably cannot lock the bootloader without USB. Sorry, I don't know of a way to.
OP, you could at least do a Factory data reset under Backup & reset in Settings. I doubt that that would lock and unroot the device, but I don't think Sam's Club would really care.
Is it because you need someone to set up the drivers and get ADB working on your computer?
Is your device recognized at all when you connect it to a computer?
You can probably try to factory reset, if you haven't flashed other ROMs.
Also, if you flashed ClockWork Mod bootloaders, Google how to root HTC One X.

I have adb set up... just no idea how to use it. No, it isnt.
I did factory reset... to no avail...
1. Did you install a custom Kernel or ROM?
2. Your computer doesn't even make any sort of "ding" sound when you plug the tablet in? How about if you slowly wiggle the cable around in the tablet?
Well if you managed to root your tablet using a toolkit then you're computer must have a functioning port. the toolkit probably has a return to stock option so run it. Factory/data resets will only wrote the data partition but will not touch system/bootloader. You will need access to a computer in order to fully return to stock with the bootloader locked.

Nope, it was running stock. Nope! It works if the device is OFF though.

How did you root it if your PC doesn't recognize it. Make sure adb is enabled in dev options. Also try typing "adb devices" in your computer after you have adb setup. If it doesn't work get the universal drivers from the dev section and reinstall the drivers.
Boot into the bootloader (Power+Volume down), does your computer detect anything at all?
Any unknown devices or familiar device names in "Device manager"?
Edit: It might be Volume up and down with power... Don't remember.... I always use ADB to go into the bootloader.
You had it right, volume down+power=bootloader.
Like a couple people said..you used a computer to get in you can use it to get out. I've pretty much screwed and unscrewed just about everything on this tablet..probably been in the same situation here too. Its a nexus device, I'd actually be impressed if you did something not easily fixable. Maybe a little more thorough explanation of exactly what you have done so far, how you've done it, and what you've done it with. Paint us a picture. Should be a very simple fix. Small details can make a huge difference.

I believe he is having the same problem that I am. It worked fine at one point(mine worked fine for two weeks), then something happened and now the usb port does not work while powered on. I cannot charge it or connect to a computer via usb while powered up. If i turn off the tablet, I can charge it. I have tried multiple cables/chargers with the same results. Originally I was able to connect via ADB to my computer with this tablet, but cannot anymore. Also, I swapped the usb port hardware out of my nexus 7 with my wife's nexus 7 to see if it was the plug. Same result. The port from my tablet works just fine in hers, but hers does not work in mine. I'm not sure what happened, but I cannot unroot/lock the device without the USB so I cannot return it. Very depressing.

Have you tried WugFresh's toolkit? There's a flash stock + unroot with a “can't boot up" option. Then you can relock the bootloader.

Does it require USB access?

Yea but not adb. Might even be able to start with tablet off. Not sure if either will work but its an easy start. You've used fastboot before right? It's easy. The toolkit thread will walk you through a couple simple steps. Again, don't get your hopes up it's just an easy start.

So I got the Nexus 7. I am kinda new at rooting phones. All my phones are Rooted "Captivate" and "GS3" but I always want to try what rooting a tablet is like. So I followed a few tutorials on youtube about haw to root the Nexus7 installed the usb driver, usb is debugged Nexus Root Tool kit also installed on my comp. But everything I try to unlock my nexus7 using the toolkit it would say ADB not found. I will attach a pict. Everything is downloaded and i even tried switching usb slots and it still wont let me why is that ?
Hello,
My phone has an unlocked bootloader and is running a CM10.2 nightly with TWRP. Somehow the micro usb port on the phone got really hot a minute after I plugged in the phone for charging and melted. The phone isn't recognised by my pc anymore and I'm not able to charge it because the temperature of the micro usb cable and port get extremely high as soon as I charge the phone. The phone currently has 6% battery left .
I would like to RMA the Nexus 4 so I have to somehow flash the stock rom and recovery and relock the bootloader. If needed I can find a wireless charger somewhere. My original idea was to flash the stock 4.3 (jwr66v) firmware using TWRP, flash SuperSU, use Flashify to restore the recovery and use BootUnlocker to relock the bootloader. Then I would have to factory reset the phone in order to remove SuperSU. I am not sure if this will actually work. Also I haven't found a stock, non altered jwr66v rom.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!

I will charge the phone using a wireless charger first and then I'll try the method you posted, thanks!
You might want to try another microUSB cable as well (if you didn't; your post made it sound like you're reusing the same one). It may be possible that the cable went bad for some odd reason.

I have tried this already. The micro usb port in the phone itself melted so using a different cable won't fix this.
Before anyone complains id like to say that i have done research into this and searched through the forums for a thread on the same matter but i have not found one.
I have recently purchased a Nexus 4 (the most well designed and premium feeling phone ive ever owned) running completely stock unrooted android 5.0.2, however upon connecting it to two different laptops i have been unable to access my files on the device or connect to the nexus root toolkit to root it.
device manager tells me that it recognises the device but the drivers are not installed. all the phone does is charge when its plugged in unless i turn on usb debugging and this only makes the noise that it makes when any device is inserted.
any help with this will be much appreciated, cheers

Google 15 second adb install xda. That will install drivers as well as adb and fastboot. You don't need nrt to root it. Flash the twrp image in fastboot, then flash supersu in twrp. http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/mako. http://download.chainfire.eu/693/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.44.zip

Hello,
I have spent half the day searching with no luck.
I have a Nexus 7 2012 running Blisspop.. But I am willing to change that.
I plan to use this as a dash mount tablet, to hook up to my MegaSquirt ECU using MSDroid.
I need it to connect with OTG. I bought an OTG cable, but I cannot get MSDroid to recognize it. Nor does OTG Troubleshooter.
So, Can anyone help guide me in the right direction? If there something I need to enable? If there a better CFW I need to run?
Thank you,
Randy
Try another otg cable. Not all cable are the same.
