Hi all. So I got myself into a boot loop and that usually isn't a big deal on a nexus. Power off. Boot into bootloader, and select recovery. Boom. well I am unable to get into recovery that way. I can reboot into recovery from a rom no problem. And I can adb into it with reboot recovery. Just not through the bootloader like usual.
Any thoughts?

Can't use an app if in boot loop.
You will need a computer and type
Adb reboot recovery
Or if you want bootloader
Adb reboot bootloader

Interesting. Haven't heard that. But would make sense. Twrp and cwm both wouldn't.
And yeah, fastboot commands work fine. So I wasn't lost. Just might not always be near my comp

If you get caught in a boot loop, here is how you need to get into recovery with the Nexus 7.
Hold volume up, volume down and power until it boots into bootloader.
Plug into USB on your Windows Computer.
Open Command prompt (in fastboot folder)
type: fastboot reboot-bootloader
It will now reboot into bootloader. You can now unplug the USB, scroll down to Reboot recovery, press power button, and it will reboot to recovery.
(Please note you have to be unlocked, rooted with a custom recovery to do this!!!)
Update, you don't have to use fastboot, or even have drivers installed. You just have to be plugged in to any comp usb. Mac windows whatever. Then you can enter recovery from bootloader. Wierd huh

Has this bug been fixed? Or will ever be? Need a cwm update or is it a Google problem?
Bootloader problem apparently. All recoveries, including stock can't access. Hopefully someone or Google will fix eventually

Doesn't work for me, when I do that, instead of hanging at the Google logo indefinitaly, it eventually reboots (crashes?) and boots up normally into Android.
But I'll try the "fastboot reboot-bootloader" while being in bootloader thing, if that works, good enough for me.
Yet yes, I hope they'll bring out a fixed bootloader - but I don't really think they will.
So there is still nothing we can do with that? ;c

Well custom rom's advanced power menu works, trinity kernel toolbox, goo manager I think, and apps like that all work. But if you bork it into a bootloop you'll need a USB connection.
Until there's an update from google or someone writes a new bootloader that's how it will be.
If it helps...
After much testing (and after update)
IT HAS TO HAVE USB when VOL DN +VOL UP + ON (only) from off
Later insertions do not work.
I bet it is not a bug, I bet they wrote code for external power check during entry to recovery, etc. Thus, I also bet it is deliberate, NOT a bug, and will not go away.
There are instructions all over the web about when to plug in, on mine it has to (only) be at VD, VU, +ON.
I made a list of operations and screen responses as I tested, if of value...
Iam using trinity tool to boot into recover. It is working fine.

I just had this problem. 2 hours ago I never had this issue.
This started happening when I flash Franco's kernel.
Before I can boot to recovery by going to bootloader then choose recovery. Now I can't!
I even flash stock / re-locked and it still a no go.
I can only boot from recovery thru fastboot or while inside Android.
WTH!
EDIT: Could it be related to the build?
Here are my findings:
a) I used my mom-in-law's nexus 7 stock, never rooted = c8O = It DOES not boot to recovery from hardware buttons (bootloader then choose recovery) - but It boots to recovery from bootloader only when it is connected via USB
b) I have a C9O which was working before, but I flashed to STOCK (recovery using the Toolkit) then It can't boot anymore - so it might not be Franco's kernel
c) Friend's C9O stock, never rooted = CAN boot to recovery without having to plug in the USB.
Weird .. so maybe google will fix this.
Had this problem last night after flashing the latest AOKP. Kept getting stuck at the google screen and couldnt get into recovery at all. I downloaded the Nexus toolkit and was back working in 2 minutes. Highly recommend to anyone who has a similar problem

Do you have ADB and fastboot software installed in your PC? Either have that or download Android SDK. You can boot your phone via ADB command lines.

Can you reach the boot menu by pressing the volume down key while powering on?
Otherwise, try to check if fastboot is able to see your device and flash some new boot and system image
You have a Nexus One, not sure why you're using the Nexus 7 Toolkit..

Thank you for asking. able to enter boot menu and fastboot menu. but cant flash anything, i'll tried new boot new system img's. Nothing. When connecting to PC fastboot showing Fastboot USB mode is enabled. unable to do nothing via adb mode. adb mode say error device not found.
Thanks for answer
Are drivers installed? And have you installed adb and fastboot correctly?

Yes, installed correct. it show up in the Device Manager list.
Anyway, i go to try this driver. Thanks. Let me know u
hmm. unlucky. Still nothing. Windows take a signal when connecting phone shows on fastboot menu => fastboot usb and adb mode say error device not found:crying:
i scanned my drivers using driver genius v11, i saw android driver named Samsung_Android_4.0_usbdrivers. now i think its something wrong with my boot.img?
When you see fastboot usb, and you type fastboot devices in a terminal, what does it say? ADB only works in recovery or when your ROM is booted, so just focus on fastboot.
it say when N1 is fastboot usb mode "error device not found". thanks for advance. tomorrow i'll be ask more.

Hey guys. Finally my N1 detected in adb mode. Im used Nexus 7 toolkit, downloaded N1 official Rom (i used only boot.img from zip file)
1st ive installed toolkit, then flashed boot.img (from official rom) to /system/ folder. Finally Windows device manager say detected new device and downloading drivers.
Started cmd.exe typed adb shell => adb mode showed HT9**********. Now problem is wont boot. What i do now? :silly:
i hope u can enter fastboot usb mode. if so try flashing any recovery.img

Hi all,
I have a Kindle Fire HD 7" which I rooted following directions here which went fine and I've been using the rooted kindle for a few weeks. Today when I turn my KFHD on it just sits at the logo screen (no animation or anything) and refuses to boot.
I've tried hard resetting it (holding power button for 30 seconds) which did not help. I found this thread which seems similar to my problem. I was able to add a new vendor ID to the drivers and get the KFHD to show up in device manager when plugged in. However, if I try to use the fastboot command to force it to reboot it sits at "< waiting for device >".
If I do an "adb devices" the KFHD shows up there but I'm unable to do "adb shell". For most adb commands I try it simply sits at < waiting for device >". I'm hoping this means that it's at worst only soft bricked. Interestingly "adb reboot" does work but it goes back to sitting at the logo after rebooting. Does anyone have any suggestions about what to try next?
Does anyone know if the KFHD has a recovery mode I can boot into? I read a few threads that say you can access a recovery/safe mode if you hold down the up-volume button when you power on (and another that says both up and down volume buttons) but I've had no luck with that. It doesn't seem to change anything.
A little more background:
What led to my problem was that I decided to experiment with BotBrew since I'm interested in trying to compile some Linux code to run on Android. The app installed fine and I was using my KFHD normally when all of a sudden I started to repeatedly get a force close messages on some apps (I remember correctly I believe it was the keyboard). Since the message kept popping up I shut down the KFHD and when I attempted to turn it on next this began.
UPDATE: I was able to get it to run "adb reboot recovery" which loaded what I'm assuming was the Kindle recovery. There was an option for "Factory Restore" which I did. I got a kindle fire status bar (presumably for the factory restore). After the "restore" finished it rebooted and was again stuck at the Kindle Logo. Now however the device is not showing up in device manager and nothing happens when I plug it in via USB.
Odd do you have a fast boot cable, or are you attempting to enter adb commands another way?

I do not have a fast boot cable (I just ordered one from SkOrPn since I figured I should have one on hand). I am using the the standard cable that came with the KFHD.

Now however the device is not showing up in device manager and nothing happens when I plug it in via USB.
So what's the next step? Do I need to wait for the factory cable?
Try "adb reboot bootloader"

Unfortunately after running "adb reboot recovery" and trying the "Factory Restore" the device no longer shows up in device manager when plugged in via usb.
I'm guessing adb is no longer on by default,
Fast boot via cable may be the only way now...just a guess tho

You say you got in in fast boot or that you were trying to from adb? Because if your trying to get it in fast boot your going to need a factory cable. From there once its in fast boot you plug it back in to your PC with the normal cable and run fastboot.exe -i 0x1949 getvar product
That should return Tate something. If that happens you should be able to fix it.

Is there anyway to load new another rom to the phone so that I can install via recovery since I dont have usb enabled?
Yes power the device off by holding the power button and volume down, after the display is off let go of the power button. You can flash recovery or boot to recovery from there

You should look up side loading via adb and most newer recoveries allow you drag and drop once it's booted, you are using a custom recovery for your phone correct?

I had nothing but recovery....so I googled the 5.1 firmware update and modem....and followed option 5 with mfastboot. Phone is up and running fine.
