I decided today to try and root my phone and followed the steps on this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/nexus-4-guide-unlock-bootloader-root-t2266654
I had unlocked my phone and installed the latest version of TWRP. Now I can only boot into TWRP and bootloader. My phone is not being picked up by my PC. I tried a factory reset and format of data on TWRP but my phone still only boots into TWRP.
Is my phone permanently bricked?
Any help will be greatly appreciated
I actually have just made some progress now. I've managed to get the phone connected to the computer by going into ADB sideload and installing the ADB drivers again on my computer.
Typing ADB devices in CMD now shows my device as connected.
Any advice on what I should do now?
What happens when you try to boot it normally? Is it stuck at the boot animation or does it go directly to the bootloader or recovery? Since you already had to wipe everything you could try flashing a factory image via fastboot.

Booting the phone normally loads it into TWRP. Booting the phone with the volume key pressed down loads the bootloader. I think I may have just wiped the OS present on the Phone.
I want my phone to be rooted running CyanogenMOD (phone is currently unrooted). Should I first install a stock rom then root by installing SuperSU and CyanogenMOD or can I just skip installing a stock rom and install SuperSU and CyanogenMOD?
Thanks for the help
You could try flashing a cyanogenmod zip from TWRP, and if that doesn't work I would suggest flashing I factory image.

But my phone is not rooted yet. Can I install SuperSU by copying onto my phone and installing it through TWRP?

Yes, if it is a zip file. But I'm pretty sure installing cyanogenmod will automatically root it for you.

I installed SuperSU then CyanogenMOD and lastly GApps. It still only boots into TWRP and it doesn't look like there has been any files added to the phone's storage. Should I first flash a stock rom and then try to install CyanogenMOD?

Yes, try flashing a factory image. If it boots then you could try flashing cyanogenmod.
EDIT: here is a guide on how to flash a factory image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/how-to-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2010312

@hwweiler, No friend there is no other way.Please before do this as is one direction way take the pain to look on my post #180 on zaclmon's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/orig-development/wip-aosp-7-0-nougat-t3448444/page18 and keep in mind that is impossible to return back on any nandroid backup u kept e.g to 5.1.1 or M furthermore its also impossible to flash any rom zip if u use this N (WIP) rom,the only way to have a workable phone again is to flash the stock rom from scratch.Exceperienced with and never again untill we have the appropriate solution..The twrp used and i still use on M is TWRP 3.0.2.0.The possibility to return on LP ffrom M and reverse still exists but not when u flash this rom.

Hi Guys,
I'm Kinda new about making a new thread, so if anything's wrong let me know.
Just last evening my nexus 6p (on Android 7.0 official) got into a boot loop from a normal state. It just boots & right after when the white google logo transforms into 4 round object, it just reboots (it takes about 3-5 secs). I can access the boot loader but was unable to access to recovery from there as that takes it to bootloop again. I've tried flashing it, but since i had already updated to Nougat official version & the official image for 6p is yet to come, i tried with some earlier version of Marshmallow. but that failed as well. can it be that i need to select the right version of factory image as i really do not remember my old marshmallow versions anymore.
It seems i'm out of options right now. :crying:
Any advice guys??
TIA
Found this on Nexus 6p help forum. Haven't tried it though so I'm unable to confirm if it works or not.

Have you tried using fastboot to temp boot to recovery?
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-1-angler.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.409s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.680s]
finished. total time: 1.097s

same behavior, nothing but a bootloop
I'm dowloading an official MM image, just to get the stock recovery and see if I can temp boot in it
edit: not possible, I even tried to flash twrp, I tried flashing stock recovery from MTC20F.. tried to temp boot in both, all with no luck and with phone constantly alternating between the "Your device cannot be checked for corruption" screen and the white Google screen with the open lock.

Guys its very simple, flash the stock mtc20f image first. After that boot it, it wont work but don't worry. Onece it bootloops go into bootloader and fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2-0. once thats done boot into twrp recovery. Onece in twrp make a backup of the image you just flashed that don't work. Once thats done mount system in recovery. Once mounted plug phone into computer and open the twrp folder you will see on your internal wich will have the backup that you just made. Transfer an old working backup into that folder that way twrp will recognize that backup. Once the backup is in the folder you shoukd see 2 backups in there, your new one that doesn't boot and your old one that does work wich you just put into the twrp folder. Once done go to restore and restore the backup of the working rom you just put in there, make sure to check off all on restore. Once done reboot system and it should boot. This will only work if you have a backup of an old working rom.

OMG I finally got mine to work
I'll note down the exact steps , most of which may or may not be relevant
1) Flashed MTC20F using TWRP 3.0.2-1
2) Booted into recovery and wiped everything and the partitions
- Add - Booted back into twrp 3.0.2-1 and then swiped to allow modifications
3) Then fastboot flashed TWRP 3.0.2-0
4) Restored my backup ( except recovery)
5) Still got stuck in the google screen.
Now the next parts are a bit weird
6) Booted into TWRP, flashed vendor.img from pure nexus rom
7) wiped everything except internal storage
8) Flashed vendor.img, pure nexus rom and gapps and then flashed vendor.img again
9) Rebooted and it worked
Let me know if it worked for you guys or if you need any more help

Unfortunately, this didn't work for me.
I believe you should be fine with just trying to flash an earlier recovery version using fastboot... if you're trying to save your data and then factory flash MM and then restore your data to the phone, you should be able to use fastboot pull and then copy them back once you've got a working device by simple copy from windows.

Can you elaborate the steps pls? also have you had an earlier back up of your phone which i don't have?
Has anyone been able to get this to work without being able to get into TWRP? I can't get into recovery whether it is a temp boot to it, or fastboot flash either version..
I have compiled a list of the 20+ methods from various users in THIS thread. It's the second post.
Stuck in a bootloop still @tr4nqui1i7y but will try your methods as well... Fingers crossed..
So I do not if this may help anyone who as run into this issue but still may want to retrieve their data before formating their data or factory resetting. While running TWRP 3.0.3 and flashing the latest 7.1.1 files for angler. I would sometimes be able to boot into the recovery like 3/10 tries ( from the bootloader menu). My data was encrypted and it woul freeze constantly when trying to decrypt soo i decided once I finally got it to boot again in the recovery menu(TWRP after hours mind you) I let the phone stay idle for a few mins should the cpu would cool down that my battery percentage would drop around 41% and the tried to decrypt data which went tru successfully. I retrieve what I Could and it froze during a process of a nandroid backup and started bootlooping again. I believe the battery percentage may be linked to the early shutdown issues that many user were reported having and the bootloop of death we are experiencing. Hopefully this info may help someone else.
Hello everyone,
i just flashed the newest Pure Nexus Rom and everything went fine.
I forgot to flash the SuperSU Zip so i tried to got back into TWRP, but now it stuck.
The System boots normally, only TWRP wont boot.
Anyone had that problem too?
if anyone else has the same issue, here is the answer:
I forgot to erase the userdata or cache.
If you have the same problem use fastboot!
fastboot format cache
fastboot format userdata
Then it should work again.
(Everything on your own risk)
If you dont flah SuperSU asap, TWRP will not stick on reboot (w nougat). That was the issue.
No SuperSU was not the problem.
It happened before i flashed the SuperSU zip.
As far as i know, there is a problem if you upgrade to Nougat and dont format the userdata and cache because of the encryption or sth like that.

Exactly. It happened before you flashed SuperSU zip. Not flashing SuperSU caused your problem. It needs to be flashed the first time you go into TWRP or you won't be able to boot back into TWRP. The previous poster is correct.
Maybe we talk about different problems
Ive formatted cache and userdata yesterday,
now i can go back into twrp.
(SuperSU is not flashed now).
Just tried it, works perfectly!

I never, ever flash userdata, and never had an issue.
We can agree to disagree. Either the other poster and I arent understanding your question, or you arent understanding our reply. It's cool, it happens.
But TWRP not sticking is due to not running SuperSU at the end of the install process. It wont stick.
And now i know the misunderstanding!
My sentence was a little bit silly formulated:
It didnt stuck by flashing SuperSU. I just forgot to do that and when i recognized this, i want to boot into recovery. Then i recognized the bootloop.
So SuperSU as itself was not involved. By the way BeansTown wrote in the Thread for PureNexus Rom that you have to format your userdata (normally over TWRP).
Shame on me that i didnt read before start flashing

So I followed the guide and updated to 7.1.1 and did the normal "fastboot flash recovery xxx" then "fastboot reboot bootlader" then rebooted it via phone I go to "Recovery" from my phone and I get a screen saying "No Command" I tried to flash twrp-3.0.3-0-angler.img
Did I miss something?

After flashing TWRP from the bootloader, go directly into recovery and flash SuperSU 2.78 or newer to make it stick permanently.

Hmm. If you are on stock, reflash the boot, system, recovery, and vendor from the factory image that matches your stock, security update. Restart the phone and boot into Android. Restart into the bootloader then fastboot flash recovery TWRP-angler.img. See if it lets you boot into TWRP then. If not, try an older version of TWRP and see if that will flash and allow you to boot into it.

Do you have an official recovery? If yes, you can recover back your device again. Just use 'adb sideload <filename>' to do this.
I've also trying to unroot my device and end up in boot logo, but after flash the official ROM, it's finally work again. Also my data (/data) isn't formatted.

TWRP supports adb sideload but there's no point flashing stock recovery, TWRP is superior in every way.
Go into TWRP, plug in your USB cable and it'll mount your sdcard . Copy the firmware onto the sdcard and install it. Perform a wipe cache/dalvik and reboot.
How are you removing root?

I used a app called KingRoot while I was on the bus, it caused the phone to freeze, after about 10 mins I hard reset the phone and it has not worked since.
I tried to sideload the stock rom, but it will not accept it. I think I may have something to do with the bootloader. I think my TWRP recovery could be in the Android partition, but I am unsure.

Forget sideloading it, edit the update script in the firmware, see this
thread, part 1, step 2-4.
Then copy the firmware to your sdcard (like I mentioned above) and install it. You can use the guide here, tip #4. You should read the entire guide afterwards.
if TWRP loads when you select recovery, it's on the correct partition. You'll have to reinstall TWRP after you flash the stock Rom again as it'll update recovery as well. Then create an nandroid backup, tip #2 and you're set.

Hy Wang.. I followed your guide - modified updater-script, but I can't install the stock rom .zip from TWRP.
It says "can't extract updater-binary", I tried few times thinking that the file is corrupt, but the result still same.
FYI, I use stock ROM "UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1709.68-user.zip", and TWRP 3.1.1.
Please help me if you have experienced it before. Thanks
@rzahunn
I've never had that error before and you're on the latest version of TWRP so I'm going to guess it has to do with your modification of the updater script.
You edited updater-script not updater-binary, correct? There are two files with similar names
There's a detailed guide by @kyle_l88 on how to return to stock.
Here's the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/development/how-to-to-stock-rom-recovery-zenfone-3-t3666223

TWRP Bootloop
Sorry if my reply is irrelevant, but I need some helps.
I am also using Zenfone 3, but stuck in TWRP bootloop.
I cannot flash using fastboot (not detected on PC), reflashing ROM doesn't help either.
I've tried all the possible methods I found on Google, such as dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota method but still has no luck.
Restoring backup would end me in TWRP too.
@Xytce
Are you factory resetting after you flash? Clearing cache and dalvik? It will take 5-10min to boot up initially after that.
Otherwise, try the guide Rizzed referenced.....as long as you have the correct firmware and TWRP flashes successfully, there's no reason it shouldn't work that I can think of.

I've managed to fix the bootloop after following the guide. I missed that somehow, thanks for pointing that to me.

Hey guys,
so I tried flashing Omni 8.0 rom and I was stuck at the boot screen. so I went back into twrp tried to reflash still nothing. I flashed a new version of twrp the one that can use multirom and it erased all my data. I flashed back the twrp I started with and now I can not sideload the full OTA zip to get back to stock. It says "cannot load one.zip" which is what I have it labeled as. I tried to download the recovery tool and I can't seem to figure out how to get the driver to work so it will see me on my comm port. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do or what happened? I'm stuck in twrp.
almost looks like it can't mount the system
IDK, maybe a broken download. I'd try to restore a backup if you have one, if not Wipe > Factory Reset. If it still doesn't boot after 20 minutes, refer to this thread: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/i-have-to-go-back-to-oxygen-os.649947/#post-16907420. Basically, download the OOS ROM onto your computer and use an ADB/USB Sideload in TWRP recovery (you can flash Oxygen Recovery from TWRP if TWRP doesn't work) to install it. May take a while to boot.
I have no idea how it happened but I got my system mounted again that was my problem. I'm back.

so I tried flashing Omni 8.0 rom and I was stuck at the boot screen. so I went back into twrp tried to reflash still nothing. I flashed a new version of twrp the one that can use multirom and it erased all my data. I flashed back the twrp I started with and now I can not sideload the full OTA zip to get back to stock. It says "cannot load one.zip" which is what I have it labeled as. I tried to download the recovery tool and I can't seem to figure out how to get the driver to work so it will see me on my comm port. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do or what happened? I'm stuck in twrp.

Easy fix for "Cannot load xxx.rom": you have to patch the adb.exe with a large address awareness program. Google it, I found one in another XDA thread.
Reason: the ROM filesize is too large. For small ROMs (like custom ROMs) adb would recognise it without any problems.

Awesome. I'll keep that in mind. I'm sure I'll mess it up again lol. Hopefully not though.
