Help with wifi!!! I beg u guys!!!

myxoom wont boot and it stuck at the boot logo! help pls!

Walk back into the store, walk up to customer service and say "It won't turn on"
That's about your only solution when someone loads a 3g kernel.
You might be able to try to Power Off, power on Press and hole Volume up and power when you see the moto logo.

i tried but failed! sad thing is i m staying malaysia n i ordered it via online!!!
pls! help me!

pls! i m gonna cry

Can you get into fastboot? You might want to try reflashing your boot and system partitions. I believe it was BeagleBoy that grabbed them off of a stock Xoom Wi-Fi. You're already unlocked I imagine. Should let you flash those right back in and start fresh.

This guy got out of a semi-brick by doing something similar.

If you can get into fastboot, you should be fine. Don't panic just yet.
Try reflashing the stock boot.img and system.img files through fastboot. I did it a few days ago http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12832155&postcount=33
You can find boot.img and system.img for stock wifi xoom on the OP of that thread.
Failing that try the semi bricked solution.
I hope you solve your problem.

Power off the device.
Then hold Volume Down and hold Power on at the same time.

it shows "Starting Fastboot protocol support" and stopped there. what this mean? =(

that means you should be able to get it running again.
follow the first message in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010568
probably from the stuck at 'dual core technology' bit...
but I think this is what you should follow:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
adb remount
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
adb push tun.ko /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
adb push scsi_wait_scan.ko /system/lib/modules/scsi_wait_scan.ko
adb push cifs.ko /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
adb push vold.fstab /system/etc/vold.fstab
adb reboot
you might also want to pick up the stock wifi images:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1017398
and flash them using:
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(you've already flashed boot.img above).

If you're lucky, your computer will connect and typing in "fastboot devices" will show an entry for your Xoom. You do not need to start with ADB if you're already in fastboot mode.
From there, flash the boot.img for the proper Xoom version you have. You may also want to flash the system.img as well.
From there, simply try to reboot using "fastboot reboot". Make sure your Xoom starts up. If it does, you're pretty much good to go. I'd root from there manually.

That means you are in fastboot.
You can now try to follow this http:// http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010568 skipping the unlock section. Or as scourge recommended, fastboot flash the stock .img files. You can find them here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1017398 and the instructions around post #26 in that thread.

but my com cant sense my device =(
n it stucks at boot screen with the words "Starting fastboot protocol support" but just stuck there, this works?

That's not necessarily true. My PC can no longer detect my Xoom in any way whether or not it says "Starting Fastboot protocol support" or "Starting RSD mode 2". I can't get it to say anything else.
I used to be able to get into fastboot. That's how I bricked my Xoom... By trying to oem lock it with what I was hoping to be clean boot, system and recovery image files for the wifi.
Now, I can't even get back in to oem unlock or flash. RSD lite doesn't pick it up in RSD mode 2, but does pick up my old RAZR phone.

What sort of computer do you have? Can you copy and paste what you see when you type "fastboot devices"?
Copy and paste from your command prompt (or Linux terminal) and let's see what you've got.

ok. will report once tried. thx very much =)

Okay. If you can get into fastboot (check by "fastboot devices"), all you should need to do are these two commands if you're connected:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash boot system.img
fastboot reboot
That should get you close to stock first.

wth, i cant install the android SDK, it said it needs java to be installed. i ve installed that but still cant install the android sdk. =(

Hmm. so you probably need to flash a recovery first.
then you will be able to use the recovery to mount usb and put a new rom on your "sd card"
Then you can flash the rom on your new recovery and don't forget to fastboot flash the boot.img.
edit: the all in one toolkit is great for things like this. It will put a new recovery on your phone with just a click of the button.

I just edited my original post. just in case you didn't know how. I guess I was a little slow.
Also I can't remember if a bootloader factory reset relocked your phone but you might want to check that too. up on top it would say locked or relocked. If it still says unlocked you don't have to do that step again. Like you did when you first rooted the phone.
(all in one tool kit is great for unlocking and relocking too) just put a copy of that bin file in all in one tool kit (data file i believe, but it says what to do in that thread)

Your phone is an s3?
My phone is an S4 as are I would guess the majority of users. I think the s3 is the international version. If you are on T mobile then it's a s4.
Ok,,,
so .... if your phone is an s3 version then you will have to check that the Rom you download is specific for your phone as most of the Roms on this site are for the s4 version.
you need to go to your recovery. press the volume down button and hold it. Then press the power button (don't hold it). That will get you to recovery.
when in twrp recovery you will see a mounts button. hit that then the next screen will have mount usb. then you will be able to move a rom you downloaded on your computer to your phone.
then you can install the rom zip in twrp.
then from your computer, I assume you know how to flash a boot.img
put a boot.img in your fastboot folder, open up a comand prompt.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
if you wanted a different recovery than you are using, find the download the recovery. *I would rename the recovery to recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(I only mention a different recovery because in some of the Rom threads you might read that you can only install a particular rom with an older version of twrp.)
I'm not sure of your skill or experience with all of this. If you are very new to it (then you are probably really frustrated) have no fear there is a little bit to learn but not that much. Just keep reading the development thread and the guides in it.

do you have your box the phone came in?
Z520e is S4
Z560e is S3
So were you able to put twrp on your phone? when you are in boot loader and click on the recovery does it take you to twrp? Yes the all in one toolkit will flash a recovery for you. but you have your boot loader unlocked first.

thanks for all the help starting to feel i might win lol

in twrp when you press "mounts" then press "mount usb", does your computer finally see your phone?
I was looking at your first post, you say that you rooted and flashed your phone. What do you mean by that? Did you download a ROM and attempt to flash it? Or did you "fastboot flash boot boot.img"?
If you are able to access your phone via computer it is as simple as downloading a rom on your computer moving it to your phone then in twrp "install from zip". Then fastboot flash the boot.img.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1752270
if you are just fed up and want your phone back to stock then you will need to run an RUU.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094414
To run a RUU you would need to relock your bootloader.
in console type "fastboot lock oem" or use your all in one toolkit to relock it.
if that fails you will need to put your stock recovery back. (you need to have boot loader unlocked to do this)
on the clockworkmod recovery page the stock recovery is the second download link.

Do you know how to FASTBOOT FLASH boot.img which is present inside the ROM.ZIP?
Try wiping data, cache, dalvik. Then reinstall.

[Q] Bricked! How to fix/get fastboot or bootloader with ADB

Hi mates,
My TF300t(unlocked) is bricked:crying: Im only able to go into TWRP(2.6.3) but i can't go into the bootloader(for using fastboot and co)
BTW, there is no Rom installed, so if i start the tablet (no matter if i press Power+Vol Down or not) i allays end in TWRP.
My TWRP is also "buggy". It has some problems, like: Unable to mount... / Unable to set emmc bootloader message.... / unable to find partition size for xyz.... So i cant use TWRP to flash/install something and factory resets didnt work.
There are a lot of good guides how to UNBrick the tf300t, but they all need fastboot. Does someone knows how i could Fix fastboot with ADB? ADB is working fine. Maybe i can use ADB to fix TWRP or even better Fastboot.
Sry for my bad english, please help my

Yes, I do! Hopefully you have "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" installed on your PC.
First of all, check whether you are able to reach fastboot protocol by pressing Power and Volume down together. Fastboot protocol should appear. That means now you have ADB access via USB and you will find further help here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=2179759.

I Have a similar problem and the link above goes to a 404 page.
In my case, My Tablet boots directly to the TWRP splash screen, and freezes. I can get status and serial number via ADB, but that's all.
If I try to reboot (via ABD) I get no response.
The device appears on Windows10 devices list, but Fastboot can't see it (I get that "<waiting for device>" message). I guess that my TWRP is damaged somehow, only part of the ADB protocol is getting up.
That happened when I tried to clean up the cache and ended up messing it all up.
The Status on ADB says that the tablet is on recovery mode.
Is there a way of flashing TWRP with ADB only? Or it is bricked forever?
Thanks for any help

LG GPAD 7 stuck on Fast Boot

Purchased an Lg Gpad 7 Wifi tablet (v400) 2 weeks ago. Came with preinstalled Lollipop android so i couldnt install a recovery rom to flash any other custom roms. Downgraded to Kitkat version following the instructions on Xda forums and succesfully installed Twrp. When i installed Cyanogenmod 12.1 through Twrp i got stuck in fastboot screen.
Any suggestions and / or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

I had a similar problem.. Only mine was stuck at the bootloader. Go in TWRP and repair /data and other partitions. My data partition gave me an error since F2FS is a little flaky and some ROMs corrupted it (claimed they supported it). I would recommend erasing the system, cache and data partition if you can't get into TWRP.

The problem is i cant get out of fastboot whatever i try. It says start on bootloader but the tablet just restarts on an empty screen doing nothing.

if you have an sd card, try removing that, then reboot.
if that doesnt work, try entering fastboot command, fastboot continue

Tried without sdcard and i get the same fastboot screen.
How can i give any commands? The only options i have are Restart Bootloader / Restart / Power off. Tried restarting bootloader but i get nothing in return tablet just stays on with nothing on screen.

you said it was stuck on fastboot, if thats the case, install any needed drivers on your pc, connect device to it, open a terminal in the fastboot dir (after you go get fastboot), then try those commands i gave. you could also try, fastboot reboot dont think i mentioned that before.

hmm, ok, im guessing it would have said that normally, when not broken. all the command does is try to release it past where its stuck. it doesnt actually flash, lock, unlock, or change anything.
imo, this seems good, because now we know fastboot is working.
i own lg devices, but not your specific device. i would hate to give you some bad advice and make your tablet broken more, but if it were me in this situation, i would try to flash the factory KK firmware you used to downgrade with odin or however you did it. hopefully, that will clean everything up and let it boot properly.
if for whatever reason you cant do that, we could try extracting the factory file, and just flashing recovery and system, those should be the only things that got changed putting on twrp and cm normally.

Sorry, I have the serious proplem wtih my LG pad V400, I rooted it and using <LG Flash Tool 2014> with <V40010c_00.kdz> to downgrate the firmware but their is error then my LG pad stuck in fastboot menu as with just turn off, restart and restart bootloader. if i seclect one one them the tablet just logged again the fastboot menu
it stuck on the fastboot menu and i cannot do nay think with it. I can restart with factory restore mode but when select yes to restore, it will restart and log in fastboot menu again.
I downloaded adb and fastboot program and put in one folder <Minimal ADB and Fastboot> in C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
I dont have recovery image so i download file <cm-13.0-20160421-NIGHTLY-v400-recovery.img> form your link to download TWRP file
move it to folder of fastboot programe and changed its name to <recovery.img>
I turn on the tablet and it waited at fastboot menu

Hello, W1F1. There is no way at this point in time to root Project Spectrum on Oppo R7Plus as TWRP isnt compatible. They changed a lot when they made Project Spectrum. For now there is no TWRP. So there is no way to root. It's Fastboot is also set to non-root access making is hard to use the command (fastboot flash recovery _TWRP-HERE_) but not impossible to flash the stock recovery and then ColorOS to get back to safety (by safety I mean CyanogenMod 14.1 [OFFICIAL] or AICP [UNOFFICIAL]). All you need to do is ask and I'll give you the links.

0. Move all files to external MicroSD card *rename the ROM to update.zip*
1. Flash the recovery.img to recovery partition. With (fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img) *remember to put the recovery.img file in the ADB and Fastboot file for easier transfer*
2. Reboot into the system recovery and select Update, then go to where you put your ROM and select it
3. Wait for it to flash and then reboot
4. Your reboot will hang. Leave it do that for about 5 minutes, then reboot into fastboot mode again.

Seeing as you are now on a ROM with an unlocked bootloader you will be able to now flash TWRP recovery with the command (fastboot flash recovery "TWRPRECOVERYNAME") *I used TWRPRECOVERYNAME as an example as to where the recovery file needs to go. You should also have this in the ADB and Fastboot folder*

I'm sorry but I can't seem to download from app.box, even after creating an account. Could you please upload the recovery to somewhere else like google drive?
EDIT: Whoops disregard that I managed to download it.

Recovery:http://goo.gl/1AdXkD
ROM:https://s3.amazonaws.com/public.opp...olorOS/Specified_ColorOS_R7plusf_full_014.zip
0. Move all files to external MicroSD card *rename the ROM to update.zip*
1. Flash the recovery.img to recovery partition. With (fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img) *remember to put the recovery.img file in the ADB and Fastboot file for easier transfer*
2. Reboot into the system recovery and select Update, then go to where you put your ROM and select it
3. Wait for it to flash and then reboot

Ok I'm still having an issue. The flashing of the recovery goes through successfully but when I try to enter recovery mode it simply shows the Oppo logo and the screen goes black. Like it's been doing with all the recovery's that I've tried. If I try the "fastboot boot recovery.img" it has this error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot boot recovery.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.485s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: dtb not found)
finished. total time: 0.553s

After flashing recovery, type (fastboot reboot) Before you press enter, hold down the Volume - button (on the phone) and simultaneously press enter. You should then be able to boot to stock recovery
JUST REMEMBER TO NOT BOOT BACK INTO SPECTRUMOS. This will reset the recovery partition as it locks it on boot

Sadly no all it does is show the Oppo logo, and then when it should show the recovery screen it just goes black. I think it's something to do with the DTB error before.

Thank you. I have looked around a lot and I believe creating a new recovery img using the dt from here might work: https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/716
Please let me know if you find something.

You could very well try that and it work. I have limited knowledge when it comes to development of ROMs and Recoveries so I'm not too sure how you will fair, it may take a bit of trial and error. Tell me how you go with it

Update:
Bad news: Unfortunately my phone is now stuck in a boot loop.
Good news: Using a recovery provider by the user "Ricky" on the first page of this thread: http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=46395&extra=&page=1 I have been able to flash the stock recovery and it is now working. Because of the boot loop problem I am reinstalling Spectrum through recovery to try and get out of that, then hopefully I will be able to flash back to Color OS if the boot loop stops.

Is it just the boot animation continuously playing? If so, this is when you need to turn off your phone and right as the screen goes off press and hold the volume + button. This will put you back in fastboot. Once you are there flash the TWRP recovery. After that hold the volume - and type fastboot reboot. This will boot you to TWRP recovery
