Hi. Last night I've updated to las OTA. After reboot and installation it make a reboot and never start again, it stopped in gear live initial logo and stay there until batteries end.
Now, when I plug the watch it show battery logo forever and if I press the bottom enough time it goes to startup infinite loop.
Some help?
Thanks!

Things that I've try:
Go into bootloader Ok.
Go into recovery fail: Do nothing and start to warmup.
Download twrp version 2.7.1.2-sp.img and twrp 2.8.6.0 and fastboot boot twrp.img: Nothing fastboot say ok and after that just nothing, watch start to warm
Download SamsungGearLive-sprat-ddPull-AdamOutlerDevice-24July2014.tar.gz ... inside lots of img's files, I've try to boot with recovery.img and.... nothing.
I'm soooo lost.

Ok first things first: is your bootloader unlocked? if not then you can't flash/boot anything that is not signed by the Samsung/Google for our specific watch. So you can't boot into TWRP unless you unlock it. fastboot oem unlock will unlock it, but for security purposes, it will also reset your watch to factory.

Thanks Aligatror, it is not unlocked, i wish to restore to stock and I've tried to boot from external google//samsung recovery with out look.
Regarding the stock firmware i can't find anywhere instructions about how to flash everything and were to find factory images.
Thanks!

Did you try the Gear Live restore tool? It's in the gear live android development forum

Yes, it is a great tool, but there appears to be a broken bluetooth file in the v3 image which makes it impossible to pair watch to a phone. So, use V2 instead.

Which version did you download and what option did you select? Recovery boot message is normal when you do unlock since it erases the user partition. Select option to restore to stock or something like that in that program you downloaded. Just make you that you have version 2 and not 3.

I did with version 2 and 3 I do it by hand because linux script does not work.
I've flash boot recovery and system partitions included in the tool zip file.
And. ... nothing

Is it still stuck in bootloop? Can you boot into recovery from bootloader?

I can't boot into recovery. Only bootloader works.
Every time that I press recovery from bootloader I get an "recovering boot " forever

Lets try something more radical.
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
And then flash boot, recovery and system.

No, I can't go into recovery, just Bootloader. recovery hangs and normal boot hangs too.
I have take a look to update script and it have a new img for partitions associated with it.. I have flashed all of them and.... nothing.

Try reflashing the bootloader itself. Download latest OTA update
sprat-LDZ22J-from-LWX49K.1e8de7cf.zip
Extract it and you'll see bunch of files "bootloader.xxxx.img". Flash all of the .img files.
fastboot flash apnhlos bootloader.apnhlos.img
fastboot flash aboot bootloader.aboot.img
.... and so on with all bootloader files.
Reboot bootloader and try booting into recovery or system.

The only thing that I coulden't did was flash 5.1.1 recovery, and other partitions because it come like .p files (dif images)
But thanks

Well I guess your only option is to flash to 4.4, flash older bootloader and request repair service from Samsung.

Is the watch effectively bricked once that image is flashed? I've come across your post too late after reading about the tool. Used v3, told the tool to restore to stock, the watch boots its image fine but the bluetooth is definitely broken now (phone won't connect to it). I can get to settings to enable ADB on wear but I can't authorize my PC it seems, never get the notification on the watch screen to allow the PC. It's just stuck at the initialization telling me to Install Android Wear on my phone.

Its not bricked, but the bluetooth is not working due to corrupted file. You can flash v2 no problem. Just make sure to do reset after flashing.

Try re download the zip (or try an other rom)maybe you just got an false download. i also had some trouble with my m7 back in the day.
But in your case now you are stuck with no os or bootloop, i give you as advice to follow an soft unbrick method it worked for me, or if you have an usb otg cable and usb or and usb otg thumbstick, put the rom on that usb and connect it to your phone and then try to flash it (if your using twrp you have an option to choose from wich storage you want to use)
Also a piece of advice, when flashing roms, kernels etc please have your phone charged above 50% (just in case).

Can you please post the output of
Code:
fastboot getvar all
please remove your imei and serial number.
Depending on which variant of the M7 you have you probably just need a different version of recovery to install a CM rom. I think they prefer TWRP 2.7.x.x. Post the getvar and we can see what you have. then I can give you a better informed instruction. :good:
P.s also check the md5 of the rom zip you downloaded. Use this tool www.winmd5.com the correct md5 should be listed with the link you downloaded the rom from

failed to mount /dev/block/blah blah blah = needs "block:by-name" support which twrp 2.6.3.3 doesn't have
everything explained here
So update your recovery
and do what danny said above so he can confirm you have the right rom/recovery for your device.

Your getvar looks fine this rom should work fine with your device. Download this version of TWRP https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358561860 (2.7.1.2). dropthe file in your fastboot folder and flash it with fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "name-of-recovery".img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Once thats done reflash the rom with the new version of TWRP. It should flash just fine :good:

iv managed to flash cm12.1 now, thanks guys, is there anyway i could get the HTC software back on.

There are a number of ways to return to stock software. You can simply flash a stock rom through twrp or use a stock nandroid. look for rom that match your version main. 7.19.401.22
I think there is even an lollipop 7.19.401.22 RUU for your device but I'm not sure if it will work with s-on though because it's a zip but it certainly wouldnt hurt to try it though. You will need to relock your bootloader and flash it with fastboot.
I'll edit this post with links when I find them unless some one beats me to it

Sorry I am at work so availability is scetchy. I found the ruu but it's for the older 7.19.401.2 lollipop, this won't work for you because your s-on. Downgrading firmware is only possible with s-off.
You can use this stock rom though http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-100-pure-stock-5-0-2-7-19-401-2-t3044041 just flash it with twrp. The thread recommends TWRP 2.8.5.X no need to relock the bootloader or anything silly, just flash it like any other rom :good:
You'll notice that this rom is also for the older 7.19.401.2 so you will need to install the last OTA update to bring your rom in line with your firmware. Flash this recovery with the same method as twrp. (Stock recovery required for installing the OTA) http://sourceforge.net/projects/htcone/files/Recovery/STOCK/7.19.401.2_recovery.img/download reboot then just go to Settings>About>Check for updates.

Okay try this. Download the OTA but select the option "Install Later" connect your m7 to your pc and browse your storage. In the download folder on your phone you should find the OTA in zip format. Copy it to your pc.
Now open the OTA zip on your pc. Inside you'll find another zip called "firmware.zip" extract it then open it. Inside you'll find a recovery.img. extract the recovery file and flash it with fastboot. Now reboot to android and continue to install the OTA. :fingers-crossed:

Yes you will need to unlock the bootloader to flash the recovery, Dont forget to fastboot erase cache after flashing the recovery that is cruicial. You don't need to be relocked to install the OTA though.
When you select install now, the device should reboot to the Stock Recovery. At first the screen will just be black for a short while. Then you'll see an image of a phone with a Green ring and download arrow. If you hold Volume up and press the power button you will see the Stock Recovery and its progress in installing the OTA.
I'm not sure why your device was hanging on boot after installing the OTA. Maybe a bad recovery.img. that's why I say to get the recovery from the OTA file.

its still not working so i mite just install twrp and restore to cm12.1

Your still stuck with this? Try starting the process over, but do not relock your bootloader at any point.
Wipe system data and cache partitions with TWRP Advanced wipe
Flash the Rom with twrp as a clean install.
Reboot and download the OTA. Choose install later, then copy the OTA to your pc. Extract the Stock Recovery and flash it with fastboot. Reboot and install the OTA.
But do not relock your boot loader. Because when you unlock the bootloader, it wipes the device including the data/preload folder. If the preload folder is not intact the OTA will fail

Nexus 6 stuck on bootup

My nexus 6 is soft bricked I'm assuming, I can't get past the 6.0.1 boot up screen it just keeps on booting . The device is unlocked with TWRP recovery but not rooted as far as I know it's not rooted. The only way I can check MTP is through twrp but it's showing an exclmation point in device mgr. I'm in wugs toolkit now under Advanced Utilities, before I got the boot logo it had the you're device is corrupt. I fixed the corrupt message by putting my device in boot loader mode and in Advanced Utilities under fastboot flash then I clicked Boot [Kernel] I flashed the stock kernel and that got rid of the corrupt device warning screen. I'm gonna try flashing a modified boot img next but I'm having trouble. I just need someone to stick with me for awhile and help me fix this thing because I gotta return it and I don't have long.

If TWRP is installed there's no problem. Just a matter of the pc let recognize the device. Quit the toolkits though!
Do you have google drivers installed? Once they are installed your device should be recognized and you can copy any of the fine roms that can be found here.

the corrupt device message is only there because you have twrp and a stock kernel. flash a custom kernel.

It's fixed, everything is running as it should no boot loops or corrupt screen, now I gotta check to see if recovery is gone. I used wugs to flash stock 6.0.1

I used to have the corrupt message also, but it would go away and boot just fine. Started when I had TWRP. As someone mentioned, if this is a really annoyance, just flash a custom kernel . Though mine went away when I rooted with SuperSU (which patches the kernel I think)

I used wugs toolkit to flash back to complete stock it worked my device is running as normal, but when I power of the device and power it back on the corrupt message then disappears and boots right up. When I boot into boot loader mode and boot recovery it shows the green android robot laying down. After I flashed back to stock 6.0.1 it got rid of twrp and root but I'm still unlocked . The unlocked part I'm not worried about. In order to fix this do I have to 're root and flash twrp all over again or is there an easier way. I need step by step, on how to get rid of the corrupt message. Example, like when someone says flash img to me that's about as clear as mud.....

i believe that your bootloader is unlocked, thats why its showing up on a non rooted n6. you can lock your bootloader(i wouldnt, you can have problems later) or you can flash twrp recovery, then a custom kernel, and you dont need to root it for that.

a stock twrp flashable, then theres no zip version of it available. BUT twrp can also flash .img kernels as well. if you have the factory image available, you can unzip it and just flash the boot.img in twrp(or fastboot). but why the stock kernel?? if you just want stock, id recommend just fastboot flashing the boot.img from the factory image. boot.img is the kernel.

i have followed directions to the best of my knowledge, i had twrp already installed but i wanted to update to 20V i was running 20Q, so i used lgup and did a refurbished option. I am running windows 10, i installed minimal adb, adb recognizes my phone, my phone was unlocked and after doing lg up it stayed unlocked, so i proceed to booting into twrp from fastboot, it does boot into twrp i even installed su V279 and updated it thru google play, my problem is when i go to do fastboot flash recovery xxx.img i get writing recovery failed, even if i flashify it does not install twrp i do get root permission according to su. I havent been able to past that, when i try to reboot into twrp with buttons or application phone shuts down and instead of going to twrp lg logo blinks for a second and then phone restarts to normal operation, what am i doing wrong? i been playing on this for days now, thanks in advance
ps, i even installed the rooted 20V from here still same result, unable to flash twrp

weird but i downloaded twrp for 811-815 thru the phone ap, twrp app and i flashed it with same app and it worked, i have no clue what went on, but i tried different downloads and all fail til just now, thank God!

ok please dont do what i did, twrp did flash but it is for 815, i installed it cause app said it was for both, and it wont let me flash h811 files, will continue to work on it, starting from scratch

problem solved, i tried your twrp and had same issue, it will boot but was not writing to phone, i read somewhere, after unlocking the bootloader to save twrp on the phone and then after booting into twrp with fastboot boot twr.img to use twrp file manager and copy from phone to external sd card, i tried that and it worked! now i have permanent twrp. I believe something happens when i tried to copy the file from my computer to my external sd, either my sd card is not working properly and doesnt write everything or some files just dont get transferred cause i copy and paste using file manager app from phone to sd and didnt work. I'm glad i have twrp back in my phone! Thank you raptorddd for helping

yes you need to have both files i use minimal adb so i place one in that folder and other in external sd .. or internal. then selecting install and lower it says image. then it ask you to select. then select recovery and flash install. and youll have permanent twrp.
could it be that you use USB 3.0 or win10.? i know that for KDZ and LGUP it has problems.. your welcomed you should try G5 port rom from astrako.:good:
the h811 vaariant.

I could have been usb3 as you said I was using Windows 10, I had no problems with lg up though. And sure I will try the g5 port as soon as I get a chance, thank you again!

phone not booting after magisk flash

Phone Details:
Sony Xperia Z2 D6503 running Android 6.0.1
Boot loader unlocked
TWRP installed
Magisk v12.0
Had the phone rooted but un-rooted via SU and then re-flashed default os using Sony Companion and unlocked the boot loader
When i flash Magisk via TWRP it says its successful but when i go to reboot it won't boot up
Has anyone experienced this before or have successfully installed Magisk on Xperia Z2 that can help me out?

same problem here. can anyone recommend a solution ?

Same here.. Finally recovered my device flashing stock...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/stock-h850-20d-eu-rom-flashable-zips-t3592762

Before Magisk installs anything on your device, it will create a boot image backup in /data/stock_boot_<sha1>.img.gz
If anything goes wrong (e.g. bootloop), you can either use the uninstaller (recommended) or decompress the backup and manually restore your boot image
It should ALWAYS bring your device back to life (suppose you have a custom recovery that can decrypt your /data)

If you can't access recovery you've got bigger issues than getting a bootloop from flashing Magisk. Can you access the bootloader to fastboot flash or boot a recovery image?

try to boot using 'power+ volume down' to boot into recovery, if that didnt work then you have to boot into fastboot then flash the recovery from there

best advice is to head to your device's forum and check for guides there on how to flash custom recovery (twrp) there.

Connect your phone with pc, go into fastboot mode and type on fastboot
Code:
fastboot boot recovery
Or try a simple ways with power button with volume -/+ or both just try it
