Nexus 10 (Manta) Stuck in Download mode after Unlocking - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA forums members. I need some help on recovering my Softbricked Nexus 10.
Here the situation. I unlocked the bootloader using Wug nexus toolkit. (Latest version as of typing is v2.1.9)
The procedure runs smoothly until the time to temporary boot to stock bootloader (Which does nothing btw)
I was thinking, what the heck, the unlock is already done, why not try booting to the stock recovery by Holding down Power+Volume Up
This was the time I realize my mistake, oh god. No Stock Recovery. Tried rebooting back to Fastboot. No Fastboot (When starting fastboot mode the tablet just restart itself.)
The only thing that I can access with the tablet is Download mode.
P.S: I did realize that in the C:\Program Files (x86)\WugFresh Development\Nexus Root Toolkit\data\Recovery_Stock, There in no recovery stock.img in the folder which I suppose that's why my tablet won't boot to stock recovery.

Welp, solved by trying to flash twrp using odin and try to boot to bootloader from there, it seems like my fastboot mode was restored when i do that, and I restored to stock when fastboot is available. admin can you please delete this thread.
Thanks.
P.S: Gosh I'm stupid :'(

Nexus 7 wont boot pass google logo after root/unroot

I got a nexus7 a week ago but decided to root the device today just to try apps which require root, i rooted it fine but i decided to unroot and thats where the problem started i cant boot pass the google image, i can get into where you hold down volume and power for so many seconds and team win recovery which says i have no OS in the reboot section, i've tryed nexus 7 toolkit v3.2.0 and nexus root toolkit to restore back to factory system but no luck, so is it me doing something wrong or is my nexus 7 just a paper weight now.
Doubt it,
Being you still have a custom recovery you didn't follow the right steps to unroot, might need to unlock the bootloader again, but follow one of the many guides, and try to stay away from a tool kit

Unlock bootloader
Flash boot, recovery, system, userdata.
Files are zipped in the factory images directly from google.
Wipe cache.
Relock bootloader.
Reboot into recovery.
Factory reset. (Nexus 7 will only see 8GB if you don't do this step)
That is the gist of how it's done.
I followed a step by step guide on laptop man website but when i come to flash the android image it says file too large, i used 4.2.1 from googles site, if i'm correct when you type fastboot -w update image-nakasi-jro03d.zip (in the walkthrough) i can replace it with a later newer android in this case 4.2.1 jop40d
You could do it that way. Some people have. Although I received an error every time I did.
I didn't receive an error when I flashed the files in the zip.
First make sure you have the correct factory image for your device downloaded.
Then make sure you extract the boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, and userdata.img files to your fastboot folder and perform the following actions...
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem lock
Lastly, boot your system up into recovery and perform a factory reset from there. If you don't do the last step they you will be stuck with ouly 8GB, vice 16 or 32.
It's that easy.
When i try to boot into recovery mode i get the android mascot with a red triangle, does that mean i have no recovery file.
OOOPS the system booted up into android as the recovery mode didnt work (as above) is there anyway i can reset to factory settings to get the 32GB back as it shows 6GB.
Update: I think i sorted it out now somehow as it shows up as 27.oddGB now (about same as i got it) instead of 6GB, anyway thanks for your help, it seemed complex well it is but once you know whats what it's not so, the hardest part is getting the files and putting them in the right places
When I try to reboot to recovery via the bootloader it just hangs... Can boot to recovery inside android (usually using Rom Manager or another reboot application)... any idea why?
I have read reports that it will hang when booting into recovery if not connected to a PC.
And as for that triangle you see.... That's normal.
That means that your in recovery mode. Your menu is just hidden.
Press power and volume up to view it.

[Q] Nexus 7(2012) Recovery Mode no command?

Not really sure what happened, a while ago I had an issue with a game and restored my tablet back to factory settings to fix it, but now I discover that while trying to boot into recovery mode it's not there?
I'm trying to manually install the Android 4.4 Kitkat update, got sick of waiting for the OTA since I haven't gotten it yet and really want to use 4.4, but while trying to go into recovery mode to check everything is working because I'm paranoid like that and while I was successful into booting to the bootloader, trying to go into recovery mode resulted in seeing the little android guy with the red triangle saying no command underneath it, so I'm assuming somehow my recovery is missing?
I then tried to flash stock recovery onto my tablet using the Nexus 7 Toolkit and it told me there was an error in flashing the files and that it was because my device's bootloader was locked.
All I want to do is update to Android 4.4, but how am I supposed to do that when I can't boot into recovery? I've followed all the right steps to do it, did I do something wrong by locking my bootloader and unrooting my device?

Hi, JohnathanKatz...
Unrooting isn't the issue... it's locking the bootloader that's the problem.
If the bootloader of your device is locked, you won't be able to flash anything.
I don't use toolkits myself, but it's pretty straightforward to flash a recovery (stock or custom) using the fastboot tool...
* Unlock the bootloader with fastboot oem unlock
* Fastboot flash the recovery with fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(...where 'recovery.img' is the name of the recovery image file to be fastboot flashed.)
Maybe there is an option in your toolkit that will unlock the bootloader again... however you do it (toolkit or fastboot), you MUST have an unlocked bootloader before you can flash a recovery.
Rgrds,
Ged.

Hi guys, I actually encountered this problem a minute ago when I attempt to flash a new version of TWRP recovery on my grouper. Whenever I go to the recovery, it just shows 'No command' with a red alert of Android on it (I started to panic when I found that there's an unusual error that prevents me from entering the recovery and this is the first time that I saw this error on my flashaholic experience *btw my previous recovery was CWM) I'm currently on stock 4.4.2 with an unlocked bootloader. I have no idea what problem is causing to display that issue when attempting to enter recovery but then I left it for like 5-10mins while it's displaying that error and after that the device reboots then it just quickly enter TWRP recovery normally as is :silly: sick of that haha, silly ol grouper jesus -_-
EDIT
After entering recovery, I got stuck forever on bootloader and recovery! whenever I reboot, I always get directly enter to the recovery and it forces me to not to enter the ROM oh my god at least I can still configure the recovery so I can backup and flash another ROM :|

Can't enter recovery anymore [TWRP]

Yesterday I've been trying to root my device using the official Oneplus video on YouTube . Everything was fine until I tried to flash the recovery. I flashed TWRP recovery using adb fastboot flash recovery (file) but then when I entered recovery the recovery didn't change. So I flashed it again, went into recovery and I finally got TWRP recovery. Then I flashed SuperSU and rooted my device. But now when I try to enter recovery I just get a black screen (OP logo not even showing). I can still enter fastboot and the operating system. If I use a booting app I see the Oneplus logo but after that it's a black screen so I need to press the power button for a couple of seconds to power it on. What can I do to solve this? The recovery is important for me.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT 1: If I check if my bootloader is unlocked using android sdk I see that my bootloader is locked. I am sure that I unlocked the bootloader before rooting my device. My mind is completely ****ed atm do I need to do everything again?

download that toolkit. It worked for many.
Any update on how it worked out?

Toolbox works very well, I think is the best tool for our OnePlus2.

Can't boot into recovery no matter how many times it is installed

Hey XDA, Recently installed Paranoid Android coming from Chroma and it's not stuck in a boot loop. I can boot just fine every time besides the annoying corruption google warning, but no matter how many times I try to install TWRP it just won't let me boot into recovery. I'm using WugFresh's NRT kit. Can't seem to figure it out. Any suggestions?

My suggestion is for you to fastboot flash the TWRP recovery image instead of using a toolkit. You cant see the inner workings of a toolkit and have no idea of what it is doing. The toolkit could be using the wrong commands to install a recovery image to your 6P. Go to www.twrp.me and search for the recovery image for your specific device and download the file. Next, rename the file to recovery.img Then, on your PC, navigate to the folder where you downloaded the TWRP image. Open a command prompt in that folder by pressing and holding the SHIFT KEY + RIGHT CLICK on your mouse and select OPEN A COMMAND WINDOW HERE. Boot to the bootloader on your device and connect it to your PC. Then type this:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then type this:
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot reboot recovery
Here is the link to download TWRP for your Nexus 6P
This will reboot your device to TWRP
All of this is based on the assumption that you have a working ADB installation and unlocked the bootloader and have USB Debugging turned on in DEVELOPER OPTIONS.

Same thing, successful install and it won't open. Just shows the dead android when going to recovery.

You get the same results after fastboot flashing the TWRP image? I'd say your next step is to start fresh by fastboot flashing the factory images to return to a fully stock state. Then fastboot flash TWRP again.

Do not boot directly into system after flashing the custom recovery.
After flashing boot into TWRP. I remember on previous devices that I owned that if you do not boot into the custom recovery after flashing it, you revert to the factory recovery.
Just a thought

I thought about that too. What is probably happening is his custom recovery is being patched by the ROM each time he boots into recovery. Thanks for picking up on that. I forgot to include that in my last post.

That's correct. After flashing TWRP the next step is reboot into the bootloader using the volume keys and power key , then from there boot into recovery using the volume keys and power key, then the phone can be rebooted from TWRP into Android and then after that TWRP should stick.
If the boot image is not patched, the ROM will overwrite TWRP once you reboot. flashing latest SU from TWRP will prevent this.
Thanks for all the replies guys! All the advice combined got it to work. I did some more research and found that Paranoid doesn't actually come preprooted like all the other roms I've been used to. So using the tool kit I just had it root it with the latest SuperSu and also flash a custom recovery. It has booted into TWRP no problems now a few times. Hopefully it will stay like this. Will keep everyone posted and appreciate the advice. Thanks XDA!

Help me Recover my files from no more booting Redmi 4 Prime. I will pay for success

Hi there,
after a normal shutdown, my xiaomi redmi 4 prime is not booting anymore.
it is stuck on MI Logo. I can enter fastboot and download mode. Phone is NOT rooted and Bootloader seems to be locked, but fastboot flash recovery seems to work. But all my hope to get a twrp started failed until now. I REALLY need the files from that phone. If somebody can help me, i will pay you money if you SUCCESSFULLY help me recover the files.
Beside, adb mode does not more work, after trying to fastboot flash a twrp image. But in ADB Mode i was in sideload mode, where no commands like pull did work. Oh and i never turned od developer mode i think. I will not stop believing there must be some person on this planet who can rescue my data.
thanks for any help.
I believe adb and developer mode are irrelevant since they work from within the system. One option is to make twrp recovery boot and copy files from it, but since you tried and failed you could try something else, but as last resort since I don't remember if it saved my data.
Since your bootloader is locked you cannot flash boot partition, but you can flash every other which cold fix your system. You should find EXACT same rom you had and extract partitions you want to flash (you have tutorials online, I don't remember, think you just extract them). If you try to flash complete rom with locked partition, process will fail.
fastboot flash system
fastboot flash recovery
fastboot flash data?!or whatever (or not data if your files are there)
Hope I gave you another perspective..
