Since there still isn't a Razer Forge TV forum I'm posing this here... I went rogue and edited the build.prop file on my Forge TV after rooting. After powering it off it has been stuck in a bootloop for the past week. Thanks for @patt2k and some other folks on the Razer forums I am able to get into recovery. However, once in recovery I am limited in what I can do. I don't yet have the system images from Razer, but even if I did I'm not sure I could apply them via adb because my PC doesn't recognize the device at all. It's not the situation where the device shows as an unknown device because the drivers are missing, it simply isn't recognized at all. I have it plugged up via male to male USB cord, but the PC just doesn't seem to take any notice of it. If I could get into adb I think I could get it working again. Does anyone have any clues on what to do in a situation like this?

Ok so long story short, i have a nexus 7 2012 which a rooted and installed cyanogen mod.
I was using it as a car install and works perfect, i'm using an otg cable to mount usb sticks, triggering soft shutdown and powering the nexus etc. So usb seems to be working fine.
Basically i removed the tablet it to modify the bootloader to turn on automatically with ac power applied, if the battery runs out i have to manually power on with button, but now i'm running into a problem.
Ever since taking the tablet out and trying to connect over usb, none of my computers detect the tablet.
I've tried different operating systems, drivers, cables etc etc.
Also changed from mtp to ptp in storage and also turned on usb debugging mode. If i connect an otg cable the nexus see's the otg and i can mount usb's etc.
So i thought i might try recover the nexus back to factory, maybe there was an issue with the rom corrupted etc, I've downloaded the original 4.2.2 firmware which is currently installed.
Booted into recovery and tried re-installing the 4.2.2 zip, it keeps aborting. A guy in work tried to use sideloader and connect via adb. no luck.
I'm not very familiar with the android platform so i've no other ideas what to do and other idea's how to recover now.
The guy i work with mentioned using a usb jig, would that be the way to go or can anyone else suggest some else that might help.
Thanks
Before you updated when was the last time you connected your N7 to your computer?
When you connect your N7 to your computer does it act like it is charging? Have you tried more than one computer? I had a similar problem with mine last year & sent it in 3 times. Asus replaced both the USB port board & the main board on different occassions. I suspect your mainboard might be faulty.
Does adb see the device

I last connected the nexus to the laptop a few monts back to load some music onto it, didn't have a problem. It's only been connected to a computer maybe 3 times. once to root/rom it then another few times to load music etc.
I can't see why the usb board maybe faulty as i can read data from a usb key when the otg cable is connected.
It's a strange one. You could be right, i might try pick up a broken nexus and swap some parts. Usb board etc.

Yes adb is shown in device manager, but it's not recognizing the nexus, comes up with an error 10 , cannot start. etc etc

I am having this same problem on my (unrooted) HTC One after attempting to "convert" it from an AT&T to a Google Play Edition device with the procedure described here.
As part of the procedure, I attempted to flash the stock Google Play Edition ROM using fastboot commands, but I got an error message. The instructions say to just try the flash again, but the phone no longer connects properly via USB (error 10) while in bootloader mode. While in bootloader mode, the phone indicates there is some sort of problem (a line showing the OS version is highlighted in red), and attempting to enter recovery mode does nothing but display a phone with a big red X in it. The phone seems to operate fine and responds to ADB commands when the phone is fully booted, albeit with the old OS (not Google Play Edition) still in place.
Any Android device could theoretically get in this state. We're sort of "paralyzed", because everything we want to do to regain control of the bootloader and fix the situation seems to require issuing fastboot commands from a computer connected to the phone while it's in bootloader mode. Yet entering recovery mode or getting a computer to connect to it via USB no longer seems possible.
I wonder if there's another way to issue fastboot commands without relying on the USB connection to a computer?
Hello. I finally got around to playing with my 2 ADT-1's. I was able to get TWRP and Pure Nexus TV ROM running on one using the dev cable and ADB. For some reason, my computer never detects the 2nd unit when I connect it. I've got debugging on and for fun I tried both dev cables and another computer. Nada. I fear that it may be a hw issue so I'm wondering if there is any other way I can get the ROM installed. I've tried ADB over the network (on both) but for whatever reason I can never connect. Could I get a cable and go USB port to USB port (bypass dev cable) or will ADB only detect using the dev cable? I'm all ears if anyone has any suggestions. I have not tried resetting factory defaults on it yet. Everything else on it is working fine. Thanks in advance.
Okay so i have a nexus 7 right? yes, but im fairly custom to rooting and all that stuff. Well im not a nub at this stuff but i need help once in a while XD, i just got the thing to turn on again i let it die completely and the charging bug decided that it wouldn't charge. I ended up jump starting the battery and now it turns on but now i plug it in it turns on right? yes it does but now i can get access to any data thats on it. (P.S there isnt any data on it since i had to wipe cyanogenmod 6.0.1 off it) and theres only twrp recovery on the tablet, i can access twrp and the boot loader (unlocked obviously) but i cant access fast boot or push files via adb. The charging port is still good on it i know that we had it tested on a friends tablet and it worked fine. OTG usb doesn't work either i cant seem to get data on the tablet but it turns on when i plug it in, it doesnt charge when plugged into a wall adapter or a pc it just turns on when plugged into a pc. Any and all info is appreciated. (sorry for my spelling errors if there is any, also i am on linux so i dont need drivers as far as i know, i also tried on windows and its a no go the device doesnt show up on either os)
nexus 7 2012 btw

Thanks for the help but sadly ive tried that...
As the device can go into fastboot and twrp with adb and otg without data transfer being possible I'd say most likely the port is broken.
Just to be sure no adb or fastboot commands work at all right? even those which don't transfer files. If they work then your partition layout is messed up which could be fixed

Did you try to charge the N7 via wall adpater or the pc? Did you use the genuine charger that comes with the device? What does it look like when you plug it into your pc? Did it show up as a mtp device (or any kind of device) ?
Try charging the N7 with genuine charger, or via pc. Make sure you install the driver for the N7 (go google it) before plugging in. Judging by your status, it appears that you're having a defective charging port or mainboard. Usually you'll end up sending it to the manufacturer to get them replaced (hope that it won't happen :3 ).
Have you used the push files and adb function on TWRP? To the best of my knowledge, these errors don't come about often in TWRP. If you don't know to use it, look it up on Google or the Xda threads. One more thing, losing fastboot is pretty rare with N7, so if you're not sure whether the fastboot is VANISHED, go to this link: http://forums.androidcentral.com/go...1477-guide-nexus-7-factory-image-restore.html

So I was running OmniRom on OP 5 and everything was running really smoothly. Yesterday evening, while browsing the web, it hung up on me so I decided to reboot.
It got stuck on the boot screen and never progressed.
So I decided I'd try to sideload the latest weekly version but here's the big issue.
I cannot get my OP5 to show up on either my Mac or my wife's Windows machine using adb which is really bad.
Does anybody have any possible tips? I really don't know where to go from here because sideloading and using fastboot is my typical failback when something goes awry.
Are you in TWRP?
If so, did you enable adb sideload?
What about 9008 mode?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/unbrick-tool-oneplus-5-t3648169
If your PC can recognize your OP5 in this mode, it will be okay.
Thanks for the help!
I figured out the issue. My usb port on my OP5 is failing so in order to get it to connect I have to hold it tightly the entire time or it will disconnect, fun stuff.
On a side note, (and I posted this is the OmniRom thread), but I'm getting "Updater process ended with Error: 7" when trying to sideload from here
https://dl.omnirom.org/oneplus5/
Do you think it's because I don't have the . md5sum file in place?

You should try to clean up your usb port. Take something (i used opened paper clip) and CAREFULLY dig everything unwanted out of the usb port. Try NOT to short out the pins of the usb port and it's recommended to shut down your phone.
I've cleaned once my usb port on op5 and overall there came out alot fuzz. Also it's recommended to take some bright light and look when you see the bottom of port.
So long story short, I followed the initial tutorial to root the Fire HD 8 2018 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/general/tut-root-hd82018-via-magisk-t3906554/) after getting the mtk-su temp root. I made sure all the codes were correct before powering off my tablet, and everything seemed to be going smoothly until I ran the code on LInux to go into BootRom mode.
That was when the code was stuck on "Waiting for bootrom...". I connected my device to my PC, but the code didn't change at all. The USB also wasn't being recognized by the computer and was randomly being connected and disconnected. I'm not really sure what to do next as nobody else on the thread seemed to have my problem. I am a newbie, so please bare with me .
If anyone does have the solution, I'd be extremely grateful. Thanks in advance!
Is your tablet bricked as required by the guide? Or does it boot/show Amazon or fire logo?
If it is properly bricked, you could try a different USB port or cable.
If all else fails, your best bet is to follow the instructions in the original unlock/debrick thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd...fire-hd-8-2018-downgrade-unlock-root-t3894256
Can you use the transferrable micro USB Cable?
I had the same issue with mine. I was getting the device showing in linux as a "mediatek" phone. When I plugged it, it would randomly connect and disconnect. finally it got recognized, and I ran into the BOOT0 broken issue mentioned elsewhere. I commented the != in the main.py first method to ==, and it flashed twrp correctly.
To avoid stuck in Waiting for bootrom...
Make sure your Fire tablet is shut down
Disable or uninstall the ModemManager
Use the transferrable micro USB cable
To short CLK to GND point using conductive objects. Do Not use the diode, capacitor or resistor to short the test point
USB access is enabled in VirtualBox settings
