yea is there a way of flashing it thru terminal on mac? like the way i unlocked it and rooted
helpppppppp
flashboot-mac flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.img
is this wrong?
Hey man, it sounds like either you don't know how a filesystem works, or how a terminal works. Unless you skipped the step on downloading fastboot-mac. If you didn't skip that step, you need to actually change into the directory where you downloaded that file to be able to run it.
If you have fastboot installed. Make sure you have the recovery.img file in the same directory as fastboot to flash. Preferable in the 'tools' directory.

Or you can just do fastboot-mac flash recovery *drag image onto terminal window*
I believe when you flash through terminal on mac it should be ./fastboot flash recovery ./recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.img

I completely forgot about that! I modified my bash_profile so all I have to do is type adb or fastboot and then the command.

oh ok I hadn't tried that when I first rooted so I just stuck to typing out "./" but that's good I'll give that a try in the future
Hello! So I am in the process of updating my Nexus 4 to 4.2.2, and trying out some 4.2.2 roms. I downloaded the radio and bootloader .imgs on my desktop, and when I open the command prompt into fastboot, and type in
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-mako-makoz10o.img
and
fastboot flash radio radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.48.img
it gives me an error saying
error: cant load 'bootloader.img': No error
What is going on? The bootloader and radio imgs are on my desktop, and yes I am in fastboot mode, and my command prompt can recognize my device in fastboot. I tried other commands like reboot and all that, and it works, but I just cant flash these files because it gives me an error. Am I doing this wrong?

when I type in "fastboot devices" I see my device there in bootloader mode. I think maybe I change some file location? If you can, here is the video I followed to install adb and drivers and all that -

Why not download the official 4.2.2 image and use the toolkit to flash? That's what I did and it worked without a hitch.

Try command prompt in the same path as your folder that contains the img files

Because using toolkits is for NOOBS and for people who don't know what they are truly doing.

Tried to flash the deodexed stock 4.2.2 update through TWRP a few days ago and my N7 started bootlooping
Because I'm out of practice, I didn't make a nandroid beforehand, and now I can't locate the adb files necessary to push recovery and reflash the os.
Can someone help me remember what the f*ck I'm doing and direct me to where I can get an adb cheatsheet + the necessary files OR be super awesome and provide me some steps to follow?
Thanks so much in advance. Can't believe I messed this up so much

Can you get into bootloader with power+vol down?
boot into the bootloader, then via fastboot..
fastboot boot recovery recoveryname.img(press enter)
remember to put the recovery img file in the same folder that fastboot is located, on your computer.
bootloader's good to go and I'm in recovery but I need a way to get the rom on my tablet. Mounting sdcard doesn't appear to do anything while connected to my pc
EDIT: tried the CWM flash from sideload option and my command line says it "cannot read 'sideload'" do I need to start/restart the server another way? I feel like a total noob, lol

Manual Root Method
Download and extract the latest IOroot.zip
Enable USB Debugging. VZW users must also enable ethernet mode.
Open terminal/command prompt. windows/linux users: cd into /ioroot folder. mac users cd into /ioroot/mac
(windows users can hold shift key, right click in ioroot folder. Select "open command window" option.
1. adb devices
2. adb reboot recovery
(when booted in recovery, select: 'apply update from adb' with power button)
3. adb sideload kk_root.zip
reboot when zip finishes flashing. done.

Because loki is patched in 4.4.2 to use a custom recovery you would need to use the old bootloader and a patched kernel as well, flashing itself can be done with dd command in adb shell
what about recovery? Can we install via adb?

Yes, you could flash it the same way but it won't work because of the new bootloader, and instead only nuke stock recovery.

I had stock android installed. And I had rooted. I tried to use flashify to install TWRP, but every time it rebooted it would go into fastboot mode. well, I didn't think it would be an issue if I decided to just let the stock update run it's course instead of flashing a rom. So I had the OTA for kitkat run. The phone rebooted, and will only boot into fastboot, and download mode. I need help to get back to stock of any form, root or no root. Please? I am quite far from any repair center at a hotel for the next few days, so Wi-Fi is quite slow.

Can I get a link to download ADB for Windows 8? Is that all I need to type? What if I'm using a different recovery image?
What is the sprint stick rom from that download link?
sorry misread your previous post, those .zips are flashable through TWRP, here is a LS980 ZVA ROM, both odexed/deodexed, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630748
you can flash a custom ROM if you would like, look at the thread in my signature it has tons of custom ROMs and kernels

Download this > http://download1983.mediafire.com/k2...loki-ls980.img
put it in your ADB folder and rename it to recovery.img ( just easier to find it )
plug the phone in
open Command Prompt in ADB folder ( hold shift + windows button in ADB folder )
fastboot flash recovery.img ( if you are using a different recovery image, sub it here, fastboot flash blank.img)
this should give you TWRP recovery, you can the use the .zips to update ROMs

All these things can be done through ADB yes. Didn't you have to download ADB to root in the first place? You shouldnt have to download again. However if you want to check start up a command prompt and type adb devices. That should pop up something if you have adb installed. I'm not sure if you need to be in a parent folder first though.

So, I have ADB installed. I am on windows 8 though, and the shift+windows button are not opening the prompt. Furthermore when I plug my phone in the computer says "windows cannot find 'C:\ Program Files (X86)\Mobogenie\Mobogenie.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again" I have no clue what Mobogenie is!
Advice? if there is any for me?
Edit: I can get the ADB window open, but when I type the command "fastboot flash twrp_2.6.3.3_loki-ls980"
I get the following:
unknown partition 'twrp_2.6.3.3_loki-ls980'
error: cannot determine image filename for 'twrp_2.6.3.3_loki-ls980'
I am not sure what to do... Is the Mobogenie the issue? I have all of the proper drivers installed. though I don't see my device in computer on the laptop. Help please? I don't think I can take the device into sprint or lg, because it was rooted.
