Doesnt help(((

It could also be a signature issue. If the mod does not have the original signatures and you are on stock Rom, this is probably why it won't boot. Best thing to do will be to download a Rom and see if adb picks up the phone. If it does use adb to push the Rom zip into the sdcard and flash it. Then you will need to flash the boot image via fastboot.

Download the android sdk and go to the folder where adb is in. Open command prompt from that folder, connect phone to pc and type adb remount to see if it picks the phone up. You need to have the HTC drivers installed as well.

check the filename.
it is not recovery-cwm_3.1.0.1-sam-tab-10.1-052111.img when you unpack it.
ensure you have a working fastboot
you should fastboot boot it first prior to flashing/replacing.
you do not need to root your device to use this. if you are using this on the 'v', then you must unlock your bootloader prior.

It's in the Rom zip, assuming your not s-off it must be flashed separately
You can check if your s-off by going to hboot, toward the top it will say s-off or s-on...which basically means security off/on - its another level of security HTC added on above the bootloader
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
It says s-on
so what do i do from here?
Put your boot.img into the folder which your fastboot and adb are and then open a terminal to the folder. Then put your phone into fastboot by entering the bootloader. Then type fastboot devices to see if your device is connected to the computer. If it comes up with your serial number continue if not try again. Then type fastboot flash boot.img and then go to recovery and reflash the rom.

No no... bad advice... ODIN is for Samsung...
Sent from my Vivid 4G using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Download either TWRP or WCX recovery. As long as your phone can get to the bootloader, you can get into Fastboot and flash the recovery again. Make sure the recovery is in the same folder where you have the adb.exe and fastboot.exe. Open up a command prompt, then change directory to where your fastboot and adb are. Type in fastboot flash recovery "recovery".img where "recovery" would be the name of the recovery file you download. This will flash pretty quickly. Once you get to that point, you probably are S-On so you need to make sure to extract the boot.img from the ROM you downloaded. Use either winrar or 7zip to extract the boot.img to the same location where you have the fastboot.exe and adb.exe. Then go to the command prompt again and change directories to the same folder where you have fastboot and adb. Type in fastboot flash boot boot.img. I usually would run this 3 times to make sure it loads properly. Once that is done reboot the phone again.

[Q] Can I flash Android 4.3 Factory Images with Nexus Root Toolkit?

Hother/i
I have Nexus 7 WiFi. I want flash JWR66V but flashing guild by fastboot look like difficult for me.
Can I use Nexus Root Toolkit 1.6.4 to flash this images by "Flash Stock + Unroot" button and select "Other/Browse for use with any factory image package: tagz/tar"?
Thank
I did it 30 minutes ago, and everything is fine for now.
Happy at 4.3 with no hustle
Is it so difficult to double click the script included in the stock image?
The toolkit should have taken care of the drivers, just make sure you have the fastboot and adb files at the location of the script...

Are you sure that you have the fastboot drivers installed? That will only be displayed if you don't. Connect your device via usb to your computer, open cmd and type in 'adb devices' to ensure you have adb working correctly first. If so, type in 'adb reboot bootloader', then 'fastboot devices' when the bootloader has loaded. If you get the same error, you need to check you've actually got fastboot.
Sent from my GT-I9505
I'm getting the same issue. The Nexus Root Toolkit works absolutely fine, but I can't do any adb commands via command prompt. Could someone explain how to use the Toolkit to install the factory image? I've tried reverting to stock and selecting 4.3 as the image manually but all that will happen is my Nexus will reboot into Fastboot and not actually install anything. I would really apreciate some help.
I did it with the toolkit too, make sure usb debugging is enabled in developer options. Change connection type from mtp to ptp and if it is "waiting for device" for too long, pull out the usb lead from device and immediately put it back in

I just used the. bat file and it worked like a champ.
The only issue I had was I had my N7 USB cable plugged into an usb extension cord. It was recognized in adb, but not fastboot. Had to plug directly into back of PC. I had the same problem before, but it slipped my mind this time.
Running rooted 4.3 without issues.

Yes, since you are using the stock + unroot method of the toolkit. Therefore you will have to root your device again. I believe if you use cmd and flash the bootloader and some other files separately, no data is lost, but using the toolkit method will wipe and flash the userdata partition.

Can I root and install custom recovery using toolkit?
I'm not entirely sure, the toolkit hasn't been updated to account for 4.3, I suppose you could have a go. You can download a flashable zip that is floating around the general section, that is pre-rooted and therefore you will have root, although your data will still be deleted.

[Q] Bootloop after going GPE to a 4.4 Rom

A couple of months back I flashed my HTC One to a GPE Rom and then updating using OTA to Android 4.3 which was working fine.
Upon finding this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356654
I wanted to flash to 4.4 using it. I followed instructions and it said it installed fine.
However I'm no stuck in a boot loop.
I get the "HTc quietly brilliant" screen and then it reboots, and this loops.
I can hold down vol button and then select recovery but as soon as I do it reboots and I cannot get into recover. I've tried a few adb commands like adb reboot recovery etc. and it just says device not found. Any tips?

Before doing the flashing I was bootloader unlocked and was using clockwork mod if that is what you're asking.
You flashed a custom Google edition Rom or your converted your phone to Google edition (change cid,stock Rom,stock recovery) ?

I didn't change anything, just flashed a Rom to make it a GPE. I just installed clockwork mod and flashed the rom.

Maybe the 4.4 you flashed isn't compatible. I suggest you flash back that Rom or restore your nandroid backup if any

Same here. I even dunno how to flash a new recovery...i don´t have any access to the phone - only hboot...
Boot to bootloader. Choose fastboot and then connect your phone to PC.
Next step is to download the latest version of your favorite custom recovery and place it inside the fastboot folder. Open a command window and write fastboot devices to check that fastboot is working and then write the following:
Fastboot flash recovery filename.img

I´m not able to mount/unmount system with theTWPR 2.6.3.0...but it´s the only recovery that works. I couldn´t even find the right cwm recovery...damn...
I'm was having the exact same problem, and I believe it's because you're S-ON like I am (says in the first green line of the bootloader)
Problem is try as I might (rum runner, Moonshine, revone) I cannot for the life of me get my phone S-OFF
Rum runner tells me there is no adb connection to the device, yet moonshine has no problem there and it's driving me nuts.
Until you can get S-OFF (and if you manage it let me know how) you'll more than likely have bootloop issues with that ROM

[Q] Bricked after OTA Update?

Hello folks!
I was running a "google play edition" rom on my phone (rooted/ superuser). Today it said there was an ota update for kit-kat available. I let it go through with the install. For some reason the install failed (I think it was a 'status 7').The phone wouldn't boot (instead of a loading boot animation just blue screen) Then when I went to try to reflash my old rom (I was stupid and didn't have a backup), I got a status 7 error again, and I've gotten one for every rom I've tried to flash (HTC One nexus edition and another one, can't remember the name).
Anyway, I can push and pull files via adb but nothing will install. I've tried sideloading too but that failed also.
I have CWM 6.0.2.8.
Any help would be lovely.

Do you have the recovery in the same folder that fastboot is in?
Is the phone in fastboot USB mode while connected to the computer?
Try renaming it to "recovery" without the quotation marks. Then just use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without the quotations.
