Hi
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
You cannot flash zip files through fastboot. You need to download a twrp image and flash it individually with;
fastboot flash recovery <name of image>
Make sure the image file is in the same directory as your adb window.
Thanks

Hi everyone, i've recently bought a Samsung Nexus S (i9023). I've installed the adb drivers for XP and i've installed a fastboot recovery with cmd. Now i'm trying to root it, flashing superoneclick, but when i select choose zip from sdcard there's no file in there, with toggle signature verification too... What i have to do for root this device?
Now i have 4.1.1 OTA Jellybean.
Sorry for my bad english

download this: http://download.chainfire.eu/212/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip
and flash via CWM
done, u are rooted and u will have supersu app
to flash Clockworkmod, just get a CWM image file and flash it via fastboot (command: fastboot flash recovery blablabla.img)

I've already flashed cwm image and unlocked the boot loader, but...
1,2,3,4,5th time i rebooted the device: seen nothing when i select choose zip from sdcard, no folders no files...
6th time: only LOST.DIR folder.
7th time: all folders and files
So now i've flashed the zip and done everything....Awkward...

wich recovery do you have?
the best one for now is : 6.0.1.0
[SOLVED] (not sure how to tag as solved in the title, if mods can do that please or tell me how)
Flashed Clockwork Mod Recovery following these instuctions
droidviews.com/2013/install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-motorola-droid-razr-hd-xt925gsm/
Installed Rom manager.
Booting into recovery results in robot on his back with the triangle and exclamation point animation and stays there unless I
force reboot by holding the power button. Phone boots to stock rom or fastboot just fine.
Tried reflashing CWM just in case.
I am rooted via motochopper
Unlocked bootloader via motopocalyspe.
I factory reset my phone prior to all this so there are only a few apps installed, also SuperSU installed.
Rogers version XT925
Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?
Are you using the cmd 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'
?

Thanks for the quick reply; yes that is the command I used to flash the recovery image to my phone.
check see if your recovery image is in the same directory as your fastboot eg Cmd > cd C:/fastboot flash recovery recovery.Img
I always paste my files directly into cd C:/ .
If you have them in a folder in c it would be ' cd C:/folder name here fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

They are in the same folder, in the mean time I actually found another thread with the same problem. I guess I didn't search hard enough the first time before posting. I found a 1 click installer for CWM/TWRP that fixed my issue. I'm guessing I may have just had a bad recovery img or something.

links to the thread with the 1 click installer.

I was having the same issue, what I did to fix this was:
Put the TWRP flashable zip onto your phone
Plugin your phone to your computer and used the fastboot command "fastboot boot recovery.img"
Leave phone plugged into computer
From there flash the recovery zip, unplug, and reboot to recovery

You don't need a recovery flashable zip, all you need to do is read the FAQ I linked to above.

Hey,
first of all i KNOW there is a subject with nearly the exact same topic, and i followed the directions but somethng doesn't work.
I still have TWRP on the phone, and when im in bootloader mode and run "fastboot devices" i see the result.
but i can't seem to ADB push or anything else (maybe im missing some commands?)
so i used the NRT root kit and i use the "fastboot flash" function and install the .img file - the software says my device is identified and it installs the system.img file (found on the "image-hammerhead-mra58k" zip), but then the device boots to TWRP and still can't boot to the system itself.
help please!
Sideload a factory rom and u will be fine. U can do it in the advanced portion of TWRP, but u need a pc, or ur hit

Sounds to me like you're using adb commands in fastboot.
Boot into bootloader (not recovery)
Type fastboot devices
It should return showing your device
Then you need to make sure you have stock img's downloaded and completely extracted so you have all the img files in the folder you're running fastboot from (rename the radio to simply radio.img)
Then type
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash radio radio.img
Then boot back into recovery and wipe cache and dvalik for just in case fun
Then reboot system and wait

Hi, so I was messing with the recovery mode on my phone when trying to install a new rom and somehow ended up wiping the os. I actually managed to install the rom, but I don't know what possessed me to start tapping random buttons and that's how it got messed up. Now my phone is stuck in fastboot mode and I don't know how to get it back to normal. Any advice on how would be a great help, thanks in advance.

Fastboot flash recovery, then try using adb commands to boot into recovery and flash your ROM again. Or, try extracting the system.img from your ROM, place the system.img(rename the file to system.img if it is labeled by another name) in your fastboot folder on PC, open a terminal and flash the system.img via fastboot using the following command:
fastboot flash system system.img
