[Q] Nexus 7 bricked & unable to flash

Hi everyone, first I have to say that English is not my primary language so I apologize for any inconvenience.
So what stupid things I did was, I used Nexus Toolkit to upgrade to 4.4 Kitkat from a Custom ROM and Custom Kernel
After I realized it, i wasn't able to boot up the device properly
neither the Android itself nor the Recovery
All of it will show up a line of word "Booting Failed" on the top the bootloader screen
I tried to recover it to stock using Nexus Toolkit but sadly it started to fail after those erasing command
(Even using the flash-all.bat)
Now the device is still can be found by using fastboot devices
And I tried to flash CWM and gives out the error output :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What can I do now ?
Helps is much appreciated

SOLVED
After booting to temporary recovery, I found that the only problem is that the internal storage is unable to mount
So after wiping every thing and format I managed to flash recovery and system too now

C6916 14.4.B.0.56 Kernel Only FTF

PLEASE DELETE,
the best way is to root 14.4.B.0.37 install recovery but don't deodex then apply this update(14.4.B.0.56) via ota then deodex and do your thing. few things changed in /system
Use flashtool and flash via flashmode
Original 4.4.4 build number but notice the kernel date
Note: Root is kept, System Still Writable Etc Etc Etc
+ I've noticed instant screen wakeup and faster camera initialization
- after a day of use the camera isnt as fast but it hasnt lagged to the point where it freezes at a black screen
- upon further investigation, libs and firmware has been replaced also i believe , try to work things in, might just flash the whole system partition from recovery, should still have root at least i believe
#Edit
after reading around it looks like this is the 14.4.A.0.157 update but for the Z1S, they report the same fixes, still need to find out if system was changed

can anyone else confirm and anyone know if system files or framework was changed?
iffy about just changing the build number, doesn't feel clean xD

Galaxy s4 in bootloop, just can enter to download mode

Hi guys, as i said, my girlfriend's galaxy s4 is stucked in a bootloop when she was playing farmville.
The phone is completely stock and with the last firmware.
I cannot enter into recovery, just can go to download mode, in which the phone is perfectly stable (is stable also when is charging on the pc).
I've tried almost everything and one time i was able to boot the device and enter to the home launcher, turn two pages and then bootloop.
Sometimes (two or three) the device stuck on a green screen like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've tried to:
- reflash the stock firmware with odin, i get no problems and the device PASS the installation but the problem isn't resolved.
- remove sd card
- change battery
- play with the power button
I've no idea on how to fix this, why i can enter into download mode and bootloops finish?
A big thanks to everyone.

Probably hardware failure. You can try to flash the rom with .pit file and re-partition as a last resort. If it still wont boot then, then you have hardware failure.

Thanks Lenny, but how is it possible that in download mode the phone is perfectly stable?

Keyboard Glitch/Broken after Rooting/Flashfyre

Hi guys,
I have a fresh S7 SM-G930V(Android 6.0.1). Which i logged in via google and it downloaded all my previous apps on my old phone(i assume it automatically does)
I was following https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039.
And now my keyboard is now starting to look weird
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I completed all the steps and rooted to the following image "Samsung_G930x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR (any Samsung Galaxy S7) (MD5 hash 948A01ECCF280828DFD13AC366F6FE85)"
and used Odin3_v3.12_PrinceComsy.zip as opposed to the other odin.
Any ideas besides using another keyboard app?
EDIT: Just flashed back to G930VVRU4API3, which i thought was my stock rom but has a purpleish first time start up which i thought should be blueish?
Going to try and re-flash a root after work again.
UPDATE2: I Follow the rooting/xposed steps again and now i got my normal keyboard back. The difference is that the verizon startup is white/red while when i first ever used the phone it was a blueish/purple verizon start up. But i feel that it was definitely 6.0.1 with PI3.
Accessing the phone via cable seems extremely slow but thats for another thread...
I am now rooted with a working keyboard, now time to work on the other issues....

Stuck on bootanimation after OB3 update | Data Loss

Hello,
I recently updated to OB3 update on Oneplus 5.
Phone stuck on bootanimation for 30 minutes. I restarted it, same result !
Went into stock recovery only to see all data gone , some random folders are showing (check attachments).
Immediately flashed TWRP.
I have not tried anything as of yet so as to preserve data.
I have access to ADB , recovery(blu_spark's TWRP) and fastboot.
Please tell me how to proceed and save the data.

Install stock recovery, flash stable OOS 5.0 (using adb sideload) and wipe cache (this worked for me)
