Fastboot mode not working on oppo r7 plus - Oppo R7 Plus

I have bought Oppo R7 PLUS from china so basically it doesnt have google services which I want to use in INDIA. I have read many post here and in oppo community forum about flashing custom rom (CYANOGEN 13) and GAPPS to make google services work on my phone as well as have cyanogen. As a newbie I read everything I could. I havent ever rooted a phone or flashed anything on an android. I read the articles here and interestingly learnt a lot about adb and fastboot to flash the same.
Under usb debugging mode open, i tried to use the command 'adb fastboot bootloader' but my oppo didnt rebooted to fastboot mode, instead it rebooted as normal.
While giving commands 'adb devices', it returned back with a serial number. When i gave the command 'fastboot devices' it didnt returned anything.
I also used the hot keys, volume up and power simultaneously to reboot into fastboot but it did not. I even tried first pressing volume up and then power, but its didnt boot.
I am not able to use fastboot commands as well as cant reboot into fastboot through hot keys.
I have checked in device manager for drivers and there are no issues with it. Its showing there 'ANDROID COMPOSITE ADB INTERFACE'.
Your help would be highly appreciated.
I just want google services on my chinese oppo r7 plus, so if there is any alternate method, it would be appreciated too.
NOTE: MY PHONE IS NOT ROOTED RIGHT NOW AND I AM A NEWBIE TO THIS.
Thank you in advance.

maelinsters : you can enter into factory reset mpde by simultaneously pressing volume up and volume down and ppwer button when your phome is switched off. keep buttons pressed till the time you feel a vibrate. check youtube on how to use the factory rest mode because as i have checled factory reset mode is in chinese.

I have tried this:
Power + Volume Up - Black screen. Nothing happens.
Power + Volume Down - Endless loop with vibrate and logo flashing
Power + Volume Up and Down - Endless loop with vibrate and logo flashing
I cannot get into the recovery mode like before after rooting with oppo tools. I cannot do a factory reset from setting either. Nothing works as it should.

Now the problem arises with me that i tried to root my pphone with oppotools apl version 1.6.5 but now its stuck on oppo boot logo. Usbdebugging is not enabled. Fastboot mpde doesnt works ony phone. What should I do?

I have not had any luck yet. I am struggeling with the cualcomm 9006 / 9008 drivers at the moment as seen in the other thread .. :\

guys you just have to hold down the "volume up" button for a couple seconds (maybe 3-4 seconds) AND THEN press the "power" button to go to fastboot mode

anyway to downgrade? anyone have a link tq

Basically you can't enter in FastBoot Mode with newest device like R7PlusM.
You must Root with Oppo Tools and than Flash TWRP Recovery.
Check this guide I've made....only if you have R7PlusM (but it should work with others devices without FastBoot, at least the Rooting Tool).

Adb in recovery

Is anyone else having issues while in recovery? I am running CWM and I can't see my tablet properly. Windows tells me it can't identify the device and when I try to make it use nvidias drivet (or any driver) it tells me it's not compatible and something about it not being 64bit even though there are x64 drivers available. Works perfect everywhere else, just looking to see if anyone else has dealt with that.

If you want me to test anything out with it let me know. Maybe this will help pinpointing the issues for the touch driver if I can pull logs while in recovery.

Still having issues in windows it shows up as "Unknown USB Device (Configuration Descriptor Request Failed)" and gives me
Code:
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
A request for the USB configuration descriptor failed.
for device status.
I'll give it a try in Linux but if it is not reporting properly then I don't think it will work there either.

I can't even get the menu to pop up. On stock it's just vol + and power and then you can see the menus and select adb sideload etc. On my compiled one it just sits at the No Command screen even after pressing those buttons, and it shows up as the same thing in my PC as CWM did.

go into fastboot and flash a recovery then boot into recovery
Just tested stock recovery and the device doesn't even show as being connected until I select sideload then all I get is sideload.

I meant to say boot into the bootloader so you can use fastboot. From Nvidia
Code:
HW method:
Turn off the device
Press "Volume Down" -> "Power", hold "Volume Down" and leave Power buttons till device boots
So basically just hold vol - then press power and keep the vol button held but not the power. Should give you a black screen with some words on it and you can select a few different things. When you are there use fastboot like you would adb. Get a cwm image and give it the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
Put what ever name and location you have for your recovery image in place of cwm.img.

Thanks for your fast reply here is whats happening I have been working with a dev to get acip up and running, I have cwm recovery and have fully wiped the device and installed acip which currently is bootlooping. Now my problem is when I try to enter fastboot holding down -volume key and pressing the power it just splashes to the boot logo so no luck there but when I hold down volume + and power key I can hear the sound of a usb connecting to my computer but have a black screen only. So when I check device manager under windows I can see a yellow caution mark APX unknown device so at the moment trying to find a driver that will work so that's where I am really

Grab theses and see if they work. They are included with Nvidias tegra development tools.
Nvidia Drivers (shouldn't be much different than googles drivers but here they are.)
I don't think you are going to want it in APX anyways. I noticed it can be a pain to get the bootloader try keeping vol - held and only pressing power for a couple of seconds at most and give it a second for the screen to turn on. If you hit the splash screen then you missed the bootloader.

xt1032 BootLoop (Android starting..) can't enter recovery or bootloader.

Hi everyone im stuck on the resurection of my device (moto g 2013 8GB updated to 5.1 with [5.1 GPE 1 click] from This forum.
I've tried everything or almost for now, cant get it out of that loop.
*Battery pulling.
*hard buttons combinations.
*fastboot and ADB. (not in fastboot mode so.. And as i did flash de 1click before the loop USB Dbgn isn't enabled)
*i think i've tried every toolkit on this forum.
*Raped google search for over a week trying every posible method-
*Only thing left is to take it to church for a blessing. but im not a believer D:
ADD: i've rooted with a "boot.img" from this forum i think it was a 2015 file.
before this i had not 1 issue with the phone. just unlockd the bootloader a few days ago and updated to 5.1 from 5.0.2 becouse of a wifi issue (unknow mac adress) i had to reboot it like 10 times until it appeared again (original mac adress from device, still wrote it down i have it somewhere.)
I think this would be my first post on this forum and it took me over a week to do it becouse this (asking you-comunity) is my last resource.
PS: i had it going betwen 5.0.2 and 5.1 like 4 times to try solving the wifi issue.. only thing it got me was the "line" on the screen like if it where a problem with vertical sync. (i think you are all very familiar with that issue after downgrading the kernel i think.)
the phone just turns it self on everytime. (everytime)
i was able to boot into recovery before the last flash touching the place were the hardware volume button goes (with a neddle) untill it didnt workd anymore and i send it to a store to repair the volume rockers. still no recovery or bootloader boot.
my pc (laptop with 7-32bit recognices it as xt1032. and the one with xp as MTP.)
I've installed every posible thing that i found to bring it back to life even the android sdk full every pkg from 5.0.2 to 5.1 and extras, Motorola drivers and ADB. tried online searching automated from windows and listing it from a folder with the google one. tried adding the hardware manualy and have every ADB thing that i found on device mng but everyone is wit a yellow triangle. (No USB Debuging enabled so why bother anymore.)
I think that's about it.
You seem to be making things massively over-complicated.

i m sorry for my english, isnt my native lang. And for making it over complicated.
i cant enter fastboot mode or give any order to the phone trough fastboot on a console.
I have installed a TWRP touch, just cant acces it. dont know if it is the hardware button (Vol -) or what.
so it dosnt show up on fastboot devices nor adb devices.
am i not understanding something ?
Thanks for replying and taking the time to help!

If the volume rocker is not broken, then you should be able to enter fastboot mode. Hold power button until phone turns off completely.

did that, tried pulling the battery off and holding the keys (down and power or just vol down) and starting it. no way it goes into bootloader or recovery. When i do any of those things the phone just powers back up it self and boots into system or tries to, and get stuck in bootloop.
Im gonna try a gtag cable or something like that tomorrow from a friend. would it work to send it to bootloader or recovr?

i think it's not repaired properly, or the last time i flashed it fastboot might have send a command like "fastboot normalboot" or something like that. Would that be stoping me from entering recovery mode or fastboot?

What has changed? Did you get the vol button fixed?

Help fixing my bricked phone, I haven't seen a phone behave like this before.

When I try to boot the phone, either through the power button or bootloader, it tries to get into recovery over and over again but can never get in (to TWRP recovery). It always just gets to the TWRP splash screen but then goes black and repeats. The bootloader is unlocked. I am not sure what state the actual OS is in. ADB doesn't recognise the phone (adb devices shows nothing). Oh, and I can't get into recovery through bootloader either.
Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks in advance
Possible power button issue? ADB commands do not work in fastboot mode. Is the phone detected in fastboot mode? Did you try re-flashing TWRP?

Definately not a power button issue, it was fine before. What is fastboot mode and how would I get into it?
The power button issue can appear out of nowhere, at least it did for me. The constant reboots are also an indication.
To get into fastboot, power off the phone, hold volume up, volume down, and press power button.
I had the adb issue once .. Connect the phone to your PC then go to device manager and select your phone .. Click on update drivers and click browse your PC instead of the internet if I am correct you will see two driver options . select the USB component driver and install it .. Should work now ...

Disregard this . I assumed you could get it into recovery . sorry

I think I may have just hard-bricked my G3. Is there hope?

I (stupidly) decided to repartition my Moto G3 using this guide. Now, when trying to turn my phone on, the screen stays blank and there's no indication that it's working but it reboots once every two to five seconds or so (telling you how I can tell it's rebooting would be a long story and I'm sure it's irrelevant to the issue).
Am I just hooped or is there hope?
Can you boot in to bootloader?
If yes just flash stock firmware (should include partition layout)

Nope, all attempts to get into the bootloader fail. The screen just stays blank with no indication that it's doing anything at all (although behind the scenes it's actually rebooting once every few seconds). My (uneducated) guess is it can't even access any of the partitions.

Hey, since according to what you say your device is currently stuck in a boot-loop, I suggest you first take out the battery out for a few seconds and then put it back then enter recovery mode using the device buttons right after. only then connect your device to PC and use adb...

Or, since the battery is not officially removable, wait till the battery dies and then try to boot into bootloader.
Volume down broken
Hi! My mom's phone started to heavily slow down with its stock firmware so I tried to install a custom firmware since I installed one on mine and we both have Moto G3s.
Thing is, it bricked and the volume down button is dead since a few month so I don't have access to the bootloader, otherwise I would just flash the stock firmware. Only buttons working are volume up and on/off buttons.
Is there any way to access the bootloader with this button or am I screwed on this one ?

Can you boot the ROM?
If so, you should be able to turn on usb debugging and run 'adb reboot recovery' and reflash from there

Question Poco x3 pro Bricked, Stuck on logo no volume buttons

Hello, So I've recently tried flashing a specific custom ROM for my Poco x3 pro, but when I flashed it on twrp it said Failed To Mount Vendor, Failed To Mount Root and something else but I don't really remember, I watched a youtube tutorial to fix but when I booted into system it just showed the boot logo animation, it only goes off when it's out of charge, my volume buttons are broken too, I've went to several stores but they said they can't fix it, the thing is that when I connect my phone to the PC, it detects it in adb, but I'm unable to do anything because it's "unauthorized" should I just give up on the phone?

Tried an older adb version and it now says "This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set Try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong. Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.

Unfortunately, if you can't use adb commands and your volume buttons are not functional, then you are out of options. Your priority should be to get the volume buttons fixed. If it is not possible to get them fixed, then you are stuck.
What about earphone volume buttons? That works.

Did you unlock the bootloader first? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question but you didn't indicate that you did.
@immortalwon exactly that was what i thought at the first reading this threat yesterday...

Yes, my bootloader is unlocked with twrp on it, I flashed the wrong rom for my phone [Oxygen OS Port] And it got stuck on logo

I know exactly what happened. Because you flashed the wrong rom, it replaced also your custom recovery so now you are full bricked. I am not sure if there is official unbrick tools from Xiaomi, but you prob need to find someone who can do remote flash repairs.
I would try this before anything: Hold all volume buttons and power button until screen turns off. If it does turn off, hold volume down and power button and try to get into fastboot menu.

The thing is that my volume buttons are broken, I might fix them but I think fastboot got erased along with the recovery (not sure)

Why would you even bother to flash stuff with broken volume buttons? That's asking for big trouble, which occurred to you. I would suggest fixing or getting a new phone

Fastboot can't get erased.
No worries there.
