What update file does fastboot update command flash

i am not sure what you are asking but the command
fastboot update
flashes an update.zip file
here is some documentation:
Code:
usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>
commands:
update <filename> reflash device from update.zip
flashall 'flash boot' + 'flash system'
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition
erase <partition> erase a flash partition
getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable
boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel
flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it
devices list all connected devices
reboot reboot device normally
reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader
options:
-w erase userdata and cache
-s <serial number> specify device serial number
-p <product> specify product name
-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline
Hope that helps....

Fastboot Question

Using Fastboot, is there a way to apply the custom ROM zip files?
My goal: Apply a new ROM to the phone, without having to use the phone itself. IE: boot it into recovery, and drop to a shell, then use ADB to wipe/format the proper partitions, and flash the new ROM. If I can't flash the ROM (IE: Intension-v1.3.zip) that way, perhaps via Fastboot...I am not sure if there is a way, but if there is, could someone point me in the right direction?

Code:
usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>
commands:
update <filename> reflash device from update.zip
flashall 'flash boot' + 'flash system'
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition
erase <partition> erase a flash partition
getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable
boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel
flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it
devices list all connected devices
reboot reboot device normally
reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader
options:
-w erase userdata and cache
-s <serial number> specify device serial number
-p <product> specify product name
-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline

I am quite capable of reading the output of the fastboot command. But that talks about update.zip files and such (including in the link you posted)...but, for a file such as Intension-v1.3.zip only contains a boot.img...no data.img, or system.img as the link you posted discusses.

You could rename the Intension-v1.3.zip into update.zip and try 'fastboot flash update update.zip' But I'm not sure though...

I Have thought of trying that, but afraid that if that is not the correct way to do it, that I might end up bricking my phone.

Not, but you can use my guide for flash to your N7
You don't need ADB, follow the guide and it will be good -
for the bootloader, just rename it bootloader and use this code
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
and for the radio :
Code:
fastboot flash radio radio.img
If you have got a problem with your adb or fastboot or recovery....it's very simply and faster
use this:
Download this file "fastboot.zip"
Install this file somewhere in one folder which is named "fastboot" on your PC
=> disk C: root
Unzipped this file on the folder "fastboot" and you will find 3 files:
- adb.exe
- AdbWinApi.dll
- fastboot.exe
and when you need to push something by the bootloader, you can use it.
Don't forget to push on this folder the file that you need. For exemple: boot.img or a recovery.img, etc...
The line command is :
Code:
c:\fastboot>
Enter
Code:
c:\fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Enter
If you want to flash the "recovery.img" file

Is there a way of getting *Locked* bootloader via CMD?

Hey.
I'm currently working on a method to lock the ONE's bootloader compelitly via cmd.
I dont know if there is any fastboot command , but is it?
And is there any way to transfer revone to the phone and use the terminal on the computer instead of the one is the phone?
Tnx

Umh, do you have a custom recovery?
If yes, use the guru zip.
However, you can use the revone from the cmd of pc
And you can also use the command for lock in recovery.

Yes, you can do the process with the pc.
When you use the adb shell code you're "into" you phone, so you will see all the folder/file of the phone...
Nope, as i know, there isn't any command for the factory reset from prompt.
Seems i'm using my One...

Probably should work, but i never checked because for a factory reset i flashed the stock recovery and permformed it from bootloader
Or do a full wipe, that is the same, from recovery
