Hello everyone,
I found a nexus 7 on a second hand website for 20 euro's.
In the tekst he sayd that the nexus dos'nt boot up after upgrading the firmware update.
So i thought its possible to try to fix it.
If i start the nexus 7 i get the google screen with in the right top the tekst start.
if i push the power button the nexus restarts and shows the same screen again.
I can swith between start, reboot bootloader, recovery mode ecs. but all dos'nt work if i push the power button.
When i try to start the bootloader that works fine but when i try to unlock it, i get the screen with the security warning and i can select yes to unlock it or no.
But when i again push the power button it reboots and nothing happens, the nexus is'nt unlock.
Is there a another way to do this or is it ready to trow in the garbige?
Is there maybe a acript that automticly push yes in the unlock bootloader screen?
Sorry for my bad english.
Best regards.

Cf Autoroot automatically unlocks the bootloader if it is locked: http://download.chainfire.eu/295/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-grouper-nakasi-nexus7.zip
worth the try. Try to flash the latest factory image after that
I tryed that one, but if i run it i get the unlock bootloader screen where i must select yes or no to unlock, but there i get stuck because if i push the power button to enter he reboots and i get that screen again.
Is there no solution to enter "Yes" in de unlock bootloader screen without using the power button or is there a script / program that auto write / flash the nexus 7, because i can't still flash that damn thing.
Asus must use another program to bring back the ship that is in the nexus, is there no thread or something that handles that problem without sending it to repair it.
I bricked my XT907 and it won't boot. When I power it on, it goes to the red Motorola logo and after about 10 seconds or so, it disappears like it usually would, but nothing happens. I managed to figure out how to boot into one of the recovery modes...Yes there are two: The alleged universal Droid Master reset and Motorola's...or Verizon's?
Method one: I boot into the recovery screen (NOT the Droid one) by pressing and holdiung FIRST, volume up, then volume down and power. I hold all three for a few seconds and the Motorola logo comes up. I then release the power button and up comes the recovery screen which gives me the options I need to reset. I scroll to reset and press power (enter) and nothing happens. I then press volume up, according to Verizon's site and it just boots back to the red Motorola logo. I try this again and I can't select anything from the menu.
Method two: I do the same above steps until I get to the same recovery screen. I press volume up again and back to Motorola logo. Press and hold volume up and power until it boots to the Droid screen with an '!'. I AM able to select options. So I select factory reset, it goes through the steps and back to the menu. No errors. I select reboot and it does it's thing, the Motorola logo pops up then 10 seconds, disappears and again nothing.
Method three: Volume up and hold power. Screen goes to fastboot mode. I plug it into the PC and enter ADB terminal...
fastboot devices
Device and serial listed
fastboot erase userdata
Bootloader repeats itself 3 or 4 times and tells me the action isn't allowed. Then to test my patience even more, i goes through the steps of erasing the device, and tells me it's completed its task even though it really hasn't.
At this point I am pretty sure there's no recovering from this. Any advice, besides telling me to get a new phone?

From what I understand, the bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked (So long as Motorola and or Verizon hold the codes and or files hostage). So I can't flash anything unless the files I'm attempting to flash, are officially signed by Motorola.
Nonetheless, I will look at it when I get home from work and give it a shot. About the only thing I've been able to do is wipe the data through the Droid with the '!', allegedly. I'm not even sure that worked. If it did, it's been wiped twice. I guess the positive part if there is one; I have been able to keep it booted and powered on in fastboot, only connected via USB though.

Yes. It does...well did. It took me a few tries to get it into fastboot. Hooked it up to USB as soon as the screen came on. I missed I step or two the first time I tried to flash it. When it got past step 10 during the process, I was excited. Worked perfectly. Thank you so much. As old as this one is, it's been my favorite to tweak and 'hack.' thanks very much for your help :highfive:

How "lock" or "relock" my samsung SM-T510 bootloader?
im getting annoyed by the message when it boots
I would like to know how to do this as well after flashing stock firmware in Odin, the option to toggle off OEM unlocking is grayed out. Any help would be awesome!

You can't choose the OEM lock until you re-lock the bootloader. You do that the same way you unlocked it. But be warned, it does a factory reset also, which means you have to go through the whole setup proceedure again. BTW, it is unlocking the bootloader that causes the message, not the OEM lock. Also, do you know that you don't have to wait for that message to disappear on it own. If you tap the power button when it appears, it goes away without the delay.

The OEM lock is grayed out. I have factory reset everything. Through Odin and device. I just want the bootloader locked again and reversing this procedure does not work. Not worried about erasing the device I've already downloaded the 2 to 3 hour 2.3GB file I pushed through Odin

Did you actually read my post. OEM and bootloader locks are two entirely different things. When you first unlocked your tablet, there were two steps involved. FIRST, you had to enable developer mode and turn on OEM enable. THEN, you had to unlock the bootloader by holding the proper buttons when powering up. To relock, you have to do that in reverse. First relock the bootloader,using the same buttons you did to unlock, and then, and only then, you can disable OEM. And the second step is optional. You don't have to disable OEM to get rid of the message.
Edit: And "reversing the procedure" does work if you do it right. It is the ONLY way to relock the bootloader and I have done it. So I know it works.
reedit: OK, I just did it again on my T510. Turn the tablet off. Plug the cable into the PC but NOT the tablet. Hold both the vol up and down buttons and then plugin the cable from the PC. When the green screen appears, release the buttons and then press and hold the vol up till the next screen appears. IT WORKS!

No I do NOT mean download/fastboot mode. Go back and research how to UNLOCK the bootloader. IT DOES NOT USE FASTBOOT. You DO NOT use fastboot to unlock Samsung devices. And "factory reset" via Odin is meaningless. You don't use Odin to unlock the bootloader either. BTW, Samsung and most other reputable tablet makers, intentionally make it hard to unlock their devices because it is a serious security risk if you don't know what you are doing. Do you know what you are doing?

I actually do know what I am doing as a matter of fact. I rooted all of our devices in this household including friends and family. Some of them are in my signature. You don't have to be a dbag about someone asking for help. Yes, I read your posts too, even after all your edits. I got it finally so I guess thanks for all of your generous replies to point me in the right direction. Have a nice day!

I apologise for getting snappy but I was starting to get frustrated trying to point out that the OEM lock wasn't the problem and that the "buttons" did work.
Thanks Lewmur
Just wanted to pop on and say thanks lewmur, I was getting sick of not being able to update and singe I bought a Galaxy S9+ I cant root that, might as well keep them both stock and use "altered" apk install files. I was not sure if it was possible to relock the bootloader, now I know lol, so thanks.
I have a TAB S6 running Android 10. Bootloader is unlocked and OEM switch IS NOT grayed out. I went into DL mode and all I saw was the same thing as when I unlocked the TAB in the first place. Anything special I need to do to re-lock this baby.

...Like you said, your instructions do work! But i think folk are getting confused in your last sentence...
..."When the green screen appears, release the buttons and then press and hold the vol up till the next screen appears. IT WORKS!"
with the term " 'hold' the vol up" you use - instead of 'Long Press' the middle Volume button option on the screen!
This method by Long Pressing Volume Up button will get you to the three options screen which asks if you want to lock your Tab...

This works for SM-T870 as well FOLLOW BOLD TEXT of above, just did it. Stupid easy THANK YOU SO MUCH LewMur
Got my phone soft bricked whet I tried to flash another firmware (no root).
Samsung galaxy s7 edge (android 6). Wanted to downgrade it to lower security patch. The phone's bootloader number and another firmware's bootloader number is the same (1).
Before I even plugged the phone to PC I checked OEM unlock and USB debugging. Plugged in the USB and then hit the start button in Odin however not so long after start I got the FAIL message
https://ibb.co/StrkBpb
Volume down + power button + home button (while still connected to PC) gave me this error:
https://ibb.co/b3v0QNC
Now I'm stuck at this thing and have no idea what to do.
The phone doesn't react to power off button. When I try to go back to download mode the phone shuts down for a second and automatically turns on to show me the blue screen.
This is the 1st time happening to me. Please help, I'm in panic :crying:
(I tried following this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfyADP53El0 but I cannot find SS PC button anywhere)
