Return to stock rom issue - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all, i have tried to return to stock rom from cm 13 following the instruction from the nvida site. I rebooted the shield in fastboot, my device is already unlocked, but when i write the command flash-all.bat in the minimal adb and fastboot for flashing recovery.img system.img .... the program says "error: cannot load recovery.img" and it asks me to exit.
Solutions?

You have to explicitly state the location. Ie:
Fastboot flash recovery c:\locationoffile\twrp.img

[Q] After erasing the recovery with fastboot my LG p350 don't start

Hello,
I have followed a tutorial for solving the problem of "Fastboot mode started
udc_start()" from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131247 and something was go wrong.
I have done this steps in the sdk platform tools folder:
1- fastboot erase recovery
2- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ( here i've got an error)
3- fastboot reboot
Everyting was ok until I have tried to write the .img file on the phone. I've got an error that I don't have enough space. I think I have deleted the recovery file and now it's stuck, because it's not booting. The 4 leds from the bottom it's flashing continuously and the screen remains to the LG logo. I have tried to connect the phone to the PC but the device it's not recognized anymore. I get this message in the adb tool "Waiting for device"
I really appreciate if it's someone that can help me
I have a p500 and I had the exact same problem as you. But I was able to fix it after a lot of Googling.
Can you get to fastboot right now? If so, make sure that the recovery you downloaded is correctly named "recovery.img" and is placed in the same folder as adb.exe is located. After that, type:
Code:
fastboot devices
into ADB. If your device is listed then proceed and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If nothing comes up when you ask it to list fastboot devices you need to delete all of the drivers associated with your p350, and then reinstall them using a toolkit or PDAnet. Then go back and try fastboot devices again.

No, I can't get to fastboot. I can't do anything with the command line. It remains to the logo screen

Can you pull the battery and then use the combination to get into Fastboot? If you can't get to fastboot, then the problem is beyond what I'm capable of doing.
Though, the problem may be that you completely deleted your recovery.

That is incorrect. The recovery does NOT have to be named recovery to use fastboot to flash it, although it does make life simpler

Bricked Moto G - Need help urgently!

So, I am in the middle of trying to fix my Moto G that is bricked/bootloop.
What happened is that I "accidentally" factory reset my phone using Philz Touch Recovery, after I did that, my phone wouldn't boot. After doing some research on the interwebs I found that since Philz is based of CWM it also deleted the /os folder, so I had to install a custom ROM to fix it. I did install 2 different ROM's twice each (CM11 and Carbon) and still am stuck in a boot loop. (I wiped cache and data .etc before I installed) I have no idea what to do, please help me!
TL;DR: Moto G stuck in Bootloop/bricked

Try to flash your recovery again, IF you cannot get back into recovery..which ever one you are using, flash again and go into the recovery in order to erase cache/dalvik..if you do erase cache/dalvik and still in a bootloop, then most likely you'll need to flash a new/undefiled OS..
There is a chance that a flash of OS could be done without loosing all your data, but a custom FXZ would be needed..
Go down this list and find your device OS..and download..and flash the new/fresh OS..this list is factory FXZ's which will erase your data..
I personally prefer TWRP recoveries..

Alright, so since I am a noob let me get this right..
Wipe dalvik cache, done. Still in bootloop.
Now I should flash a new recovery? I am still able to get into my current one.
Sorry for my noob-ness.

OK..if you erased cache..then that's all you can do with that..
Reflash your recovery..make sure you have a known good recovery for your particular device..if reflash recovery and still a bootloop..then flashing a clean/fresh OS is the only thing that is left..of course you certainly deserve a second opinion..
If you are concerned about loosing all your data..then there is a way to flash a new/clean OS without erase your data..BUT..it takes a special modified FXZ to do so, and get your device back up..

Bro, try flashing TWRP, it's easier (my opinion) to use... Do you have the .zip of CM11? If yes, make a Factory Reset and install CM11. If it still in a bootloop, instal the stock firmware.

Alright, how am I supposed to sideload the .img for TWRP?
Just download TWRP and flash using your current recovery.. Also you could try going into advance in TWRP and clicking fix permissions..
If you cannot flash a new Recovery using the recovery already on the device.. Flash with adb.
Download a new recovery using a PC.
Place the .IMG into your fastboot folder.
Rename the recovery 'recovery.img' without quotes.
Boot into bootloader.
On your PC hold shift and right click the folder your fastboot is in and select to start your cmd directory their.
A command window should open and type...
"Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

I will try and make this simple as possible, this process will get your device back to stock if you are able to get into fastboot mode.
- Step 1: Put device into fastboot mode.
- Step 1a: Run ADB and check for devices.
Code:
adb devices
- Step 1b: If ADB cannot see the device unplug the USB and plug it back in.
- Step 1c: Run ADB and check for devices again, if device is detected in ADB move to step 3, if not continue on to step 2.
Code:
adb devices
- Step 2: If ADB does not detect the device unplug the USB
- Step 2a: Restart the device in fastboot mode
- Step 2b: Plug USB back in
- Step 2c: Run ADB and check for devices, if device is detected in ADB move to step 3.
Code:
adb devices
- Step 3: Start the flashing process with ADB using your systems firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot reboot
- or run the bat file for your firmware.
- Step 3a: If you get errors or hang ups at anytime during the flashing process after recovery.img make more than 1 attempt to run the command in ADB. I have the XT1034 and my sparsechunk2 and 3 along with erase cache and erase userdata likes to hang up and then fail but I am still able to fully restore my Moto G. I hope this helps.

First of all run the adb setup file and press (Y) all 3 times.
Next unzip the twrp.zip folder. Then flash the twrp recovery by using the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command. Make sure phone is in fastboot mode.
Next boot the phone into the recovery and select advanced. Then click on terminal command and navigate to the /sdcard/ folder. Lastly click "select" on the bottom right corner.
Now download whatever rom and gapps you would like to install on your phone and rename them to something short. Then open a command prompt at the directory where the rom and gapps are. In the command prompt enter these commands "adb push NAMEOFROM.zip /sdcard/" and "adb push NAMEOFGAPPS.zip /sdcard/".
The command prompt will not show change for a few minutes. After you notice the command prompt is ready for the next command it is okay to exit it.
Now just flash the rom and gapps normally and hopefully your phone will be okay.
**BTW the adb setup program makes adb and fastboot accessible from any directory even without the actual adb and fastboot files.

[Q] In dire need of help, stuck with no ROM on phone :(

Hello all,
as the title says, I'm stuck in TWRP recovery after wiping my rom to revert to stock... then realising that the recovery doesn't recognise the image as it's a .tgz file.
I've tried to ADB into it, but no such luck, I just get error: device not found.
Does anyone know a way I can fix this?
I've also tried the adb sideload feature of TWRP to no avail.
Thanks in advanced guys.
Flash the factory image through fastboot. Download and run flash-all.bat (something along those lines)
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Go to bootloader and run "fastboot devices" and see whether your device gets detected or not? If it does, then flash the factory images. System and boot img files would do the job.
If it doesn't then you need to fix the adb, fastboot issues first. Follow these threads:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...nt/adb-fb-apx-driver-universal-naked-t2513339
If you have an OTG cable with you, you can directly flash the rom from a usb stick!

Minimal is fine but you have to manually add to environment variables or cd to the directory but that's all done with the 15 seconds one.

1. Stay calm.
1.a You cannot root your phone without unlocking bootloader.
1.b. You will need to do a thorough reading of how to unlock bootloader from threads in this forum or else where. You will also need to read and understand the process of fastboot mode of flashing stock firmware.
2. Since you are able to enter fastboot mode connect your mobile to your PC with your USB chord, open the minimal adb fastboot mode, try to get the unlock key, visit Motorola site and get your bootloader unlock key. There are other threads explaning how to do this. Download the correct stock firmware identified based on the phone model no. Eg xt1550 dual sim and store it onto your PC, you will also need the minimal adb fastboot file, Motorola drivers, twrp3.0., SuperSU 2.62-3 ( no other version of SuperSU works, only this version)
3. Once you unlock your bootloader, flash the stock firmware which you need to download from other thread of this forum using fastboot mode. Note, marshmallow 6.0.1 has 7 sparsechunk files. So be careful about fast boot commands. Do not use the commands you find on the stock firmware thread blindly as these have commands only for 6 sparsechunk files. You may open the flash file from the downloaded firmware to get an idea of all the commands to be typed and their respective partitions too.
4. Flash twrp to replace stock recovery. Enter recovery from fastboot mode using volume keys to navigate and powerkey to select.
5. Once into twrp, press mounts tab and tick to mount USB storage, and copy the SuperSU 2.62-3 file into the external memory card of your phone from pc. Install this SuperSU.zip file without unzipping it by pressing the install tab in twrp home screen and selecting the zip file and sliding the installer.
6. Reboot system. Done! You have your phone rooted the perfect way.

Dear friend please have patience...
These things require a cool mind...
Did you try the hardware way of entering the fastboot mode? If not keep the volume down and power button pressed for some time till ulyou enter fastboot mode. Basically there is no info if you have tried to follow what was given earlier...have you tried it?
I am unable to unlock the bootloader from adb.
The problem I think is that my phone's USB debugging is off.Anybody plz tell me how do I turn my bootloader on from fastboot or recovery mode.

Dear friend,
You need not have your bootloader unlocked to flash factory firmware
Quote from the XDA forum factory firmware link:
"Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I restore Factory Firmware if my Bootloader is locked?
Yes."
And if you are still stuck with a phone stuck at logo or is looping at the boot, either follow steps given elsewhere in this forum or follow the method that I am enumerating below which is what I would have done (which in principle is same as given elsewhere).
Getting your phone revived is your first priority. Unlocking bootloader and rooting is secondary.
You would be needing a pc with administrator privilege, internet connection and of course your phone along with the usb cable.
You would be needing the drivers for your phone, minimal adb and fastboot files, stock firmware for your phone model. All these files are available in the XDA forum as per links provided by others or as per this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/guide-fastboot-flashing-factory-t3187750
1. Correctly install drivers onto your pc using administrator privileges.
2. Unzip and Install the minimal adb and fastboot files onto your pc into some specific directory and click the executable files once. This would ensure that all the files are loaded and dos prompt recognizes the adb and fastboot commands (commands are different for ADB stage and FASTBOOT stage, what you are going to use is directly the fastboot stage commands given below). Install as an administrator. Note this specific directory and file where you unzipped and installed the minimal adb file as you will need it in the below step.
3. Download the stock 6.0.1 mm firmware for XT1550 from the link below store it in you pc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/index-moto-g-factory-firmware-images-t3169639
Unzip the stock firmware. Now copy all the files of the stock firmware (all of them) into the specific file of the minimal adb and fastboot which you unzipped into and installed earlier and noted the location. You need to copy all the firmware files into the minimal adb and fastboot directory as that way you avoid specifying the location of the files for each flash command which is both simple and saves us from a lot of mistakes.
4. After copying all the unzipped stock firmware files in the minimal adb fastboot directory, press the shift button on keyboard and right click the mouse on the screen where in a dialogue box appears and choose to open the command prompt in this directory. This will open a command prompt with default reference to the current directory.
5. In what ever condition your phone is in (other than the fastboot mode), press simultaneously the volume down key + power button together for about 8-10 secs. This action will automatically lead your phone to enter the fastboot mode. After entering the fastboot mode you can connect the phone to your pc using a usb cable and your pc should ring a note that it has detected the phone. To check if the pc has detected the phone and the link is established, type the following command in the command prompt window which you opened in step 4
fastboot devices
This command displays your device number if all is well in the command prompt window. NOW you are ready to flash the stock firmware I.E. after successful detection of the phone by your pc.
6. Carefully type each and every of the commands in italics or copy and paste them ONE by ONE and wait for each command to be executed. The commands are being given below to help you (these are for flashing the 6.0.1mm onto the XT1550 only) in the opened command prompt window (Ensure that you do not miss any of the commands and follow the order given below) :
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase customize
fastboot erase clogo
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
If you have done every thing correctly till now you should see the command prompt returning a OKAY afer each command with the time taken for flashing each file. This should revive your device first.
After this you may try unlocking the bootloader and rooting as the next step. But be patient and retain a cool head to read first and think clearly..... you will need it a lot as is necessary for such things... good luck and happy learning!!
Follow the instructions in this thread ...to unlock bootloader and root...
Works 100%.

My internet is not fast enough for a video upload sorry. But if you are not sure about the process you can search lost101's firmware flashing guide in general section. I have flashed it and it works.

fastboot update resulted in bricked device

It's very, very, unfortunate that this happened so early in the life of my new Pixel 2. Here's what I did:
fastboot oem unlock
Device erases and boots normally, power off and boot into bootloader using volume and power.
Flash Android 8.1 beta using flash-all.bat
<Device is stuck in bootloader>
Flash factory Android 8.0 image, same thing
Try "fastboot --set-active=a" followed by "fastboot continue" and "fastboot --set-active b" followed by "fastboot continue", neither worked.
Try entering recovery or download mode from bootloader, neither worked.
I contacted Google support, and they didn't have any suggestions other than an RMA, so a new device should be on the way soon. Given the comments in this thread about using the wrong version of fastboot, I'll point out that I do have the latest version of platform-tools, and my fastboot version is:
Code:
C:\>fastboot --version
fastboot version 3db08f2c6889-android
Installed as C:\android-platform-tools\fastboot.exe
Anyone else have this experience? (I hope not.)
Edit: Okay, thanks to this post, I learned that I flash-all.bat, which uses "fastboot -w update image-*.zip", leads to this condition. However, flashing each img file in the zip archive individually gets the device back to health. Phew.
can you share the .bat file please?
I didn't use a bat script to recover the device, I typed each "fastboot flash <partition> <partition>.img" command by hand. Not the most efficient, but I wasn't expecting to do this more than once.
It's possible you had a bad download, did you attempt to redownload the stock image?
