[Q] adb can't see bootloop Nexus 10 anymore - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted Google Nexus 10 tablet with Clockwork Mod and Android 4.4.2. The Google USB driver worked fine on my Windows 7 laptop and I was able to use adb to push files to my tablet. I foolishly let the automatic 4.4.3 OTA download and install. Now, my tablet is stuck in bootloop AND Windows has completely forgotten my Google USB driver and thus adb can't see the tablet, so I can't transfer over the 4.4.3 image or flash in Clockwork Mod via sideload. Yes, Clockwork Mod works great and I can boot into recovery mode. I've seen a thousand postings that all talk about stuff you do from Android like enabling USB debugging, etc, but this is all worthless when you can't boot Android. In retrospect, I wish I had kept a backup image on my SD card. So three questions:
1. How can I get the update image onto my tablet, either by sideload or adb push?
2. Is the factory image (4.4.3 (KTU84L) ) correct or since I'm rooted, am I supposed to use a modified one?
3. Would the manual update method be as simple as copying over the factory OTA to my SD Card ahead of time, booting into recovery mode and flashing?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Well, no response from anybody. I just saw this on another post: "Having USB Debugging ticked WHILE IN ANDROID has absolutely no effect on whether or not your computer can see the device WHILE IN RECOVERY OR FASTBOOT. "
This is very informative. I just wonder if "adb devices" ever shows anything if you're in recovery mode. I wonder also if the Windows 7 driver is supposed to work. I have a feeling this driver is based on communicating with Android itself, so of course it won't work. So maybe fastboot is the way to go? That's what I'll try next.

fastboot
This looks relevant - it has a ton of fastboot commands:

[Q] Unroot Fail Need Help will pay for fix

Hi everyone,
Well I'm in that freak out stage.... where I am sure some of you have been.
Heres my issue...
I have a transformer prime that;
I just unrooted using Vipermod
Then did a factory reset
Now I am stuck in CWM recovery
I attempted to do a restore but after it gets done it brings me back into the recovery
I attempted to ADB but the command prompt opens and closes right away ( I assume from not being in USB debugging, which I cant get into without a rom)
I have no rom's currently downloaded into the prime as I just wiped everything in there as well.
Please i'll gladly pay $5 to anyone who can fix this without it breaking more (hard bricking if I havent already done so)
AHHH please guys help, I'm afraid it will run out of battery soon then I'll be royally screwedddd
anyone?
are you on windows 7?
yes windows 7 professional sp 1 32bit . to reiterate I am stuck in Clockwork mod Recovery without root, and with no roms on the internal SD. I have access to one restore that works but after it completes it reboots back in recovery.

Turn on your tablet, let it boot into CWM.
Open cmd, cd to the directory with adb (for example cd C:\android), then copy this line of text below and right click > paste in the command prompt window.
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 count=13
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That should get you out of CWM into Android, assuming your restore works fine.
Attempted and got error device not found.
I have uninstalled the transformer drivers and also installed the universal drivers as said in other threads.
I assume to use ADB i need usb debugging on for it to read??
My issue is I cant get into any rom so turning on usb debugging is a no go.
can i fastboot push a rom to the internal sd card or better yet can i install a rom from the external SD card via Clockwork mod recovery?

Save the file and then try running the adb command I gave again.
Says error device not found. I appreciate the help keep it coming it's keeping my hope alive. I really hope this isnt truly hard bricked.
I cant get ADB to read the transformer prime. When I type adb devices nothing shows up . it starts the daemon successfully but then doesn't show the tfp.
Thank you again for helping. I am honestly going to pay who ever finds the true fix. This stress sucks

Try the instructions here. Try using this only as a last-ditch resort.
it wont shut off either... i tried both of the above mentions and cant get adb to recognize the prime
Attempted both and stuck at recovery loop without root. any more ideas? is it possible to flash rom from external sd? or is there a recovery I could fastboot rhat has this feature?
Attempted both and neither work. I need to somehow get usb debugging enabled while in clockwork mod. Or figure out a way to install a rom via external SD card while in CWM. Any more help is appreciated!

No adb debugging is needed in cwm. Even without any ROM installed. Recovery is different from Android.
Try to long press power (at least ten seconds) to hard reboot, and see if it changes something in device detection.
Did a hard reset and it boots me back into Recovery.
I was able to get a new rom into the internal SD via the emergency/backup.zip method but after it completes and I do a reboot it just boots right back into recovery again.
Any help please is apprecaited.

Oh joy. This one is a spaghetti western in the making.
Okay. Question first : Does Windows 7 RECOGNISE the device in any way shape or form. To find out if this can be done, you need to power up the device and hold the power and volume down buttons, DO NOT press volume up when it suggests a kernel image. If you get three icons, hit vol down once and up once, then plug the USB cable into the PC and the tablet.
If it sees "Something", you've a chance. Download the naked universal USB driver from the dev forum, install it and have your device pick it up on the windows computer. I'm assuming from your comments that you've GOT a working fastboot and adb so I'm going to skip the instructions on that.
If you do have a something, and it's recognised, hit fastboot -i 0x0b05 reboot, if it reboots of it's own accord at this point, you can confirm you have working ADB and Fastboot access. From there you've a few choices. My personal preference would be to ADB push a rom down -after- doing a rebuild of the recovery image via fastboot (I really recommend TWRP for this bit).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26093546#post26093546 - This post here which I wrote will explain how to flash TWRP from fastboot access, presuming you can get it. Once that step is done, wipe EVERYTHING from TWRP, and I mean the whole nine yards, including /system. Raze the memory down to only things it can't actually nuke. Once that's done, reboot to fastboot protocol, get a ROM pushed via ADB and install from inside TWRP.
That -should- get you back in business. Though judging by the tangle you're in, I make no promises.
ADB wont recognize the device. I have installed and uninstalled the drivers about 5 times.
It wont boot into fastboot - just goes directly into Clockwork Mod recovery. Even while holding power and volume down text comes up that says looking for asus recovery. then says clockwork recovery and boots directly into that.
The only way I can get anything into the internal SD card is with MasterZen88's Emergency script tool that puts any 1 file into the internal SD card as backup.zip
It was unrooted prior to all of this as well.
*cringe*
If ADB isn't working -at all- and it's not using the naked USB drivers to get you any kind of workable access. You're starting to smell very much like a hard brick scenario. I'm honestly not sure if there's a way out of that. A lot of the solutions for unbricking absolutely require that the device is able to talk to the outside world, if it's not and the ADB shell is essentially telling you it's talking to dead air, you're in a world of pain.
It's a long shot but it may be worth speaking to ASUS to see if they are willing to, for a fee, restore your tablet to factory settings. Though I can't imagine that will be cheap or simple. If you are able to get an RMA or a means of getting ASUS to poke it, make sure to take photos. Their techies appear to have the worst case of butterfingers in the world.
Go over Pandaball's suggestion, because that's really the last step I can think of before contacting ASUS

HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA Bricked without Recovery or Custom Recovery mode accessable

Hi!
First off let me say thanks to R_a_z_v_a_n for redirecting me and hope that I'll find my answer here ^^
So I Have this device called HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA (not with Slate just HP 7 Voicetab), wanting to have a custom recovery then I tried to flash a CWM Custom Recovery for HP Slate 7 VoiceTab because I thought it was the same and ends up bricking my phone. It ends up in a bootloop which only shows HP sign for a few seconds and dead. But I managed to find out that I can access the recovery menu (or so I thought it is), but the options was choosing between Fastboot Mode, Normal Boot, Recovery Mode, and VART Mode.
I tried to enter Fastboot Mode before and tried to access it via PC but somehow I can't find the device by entering adb devices and fastboot devices. Anyways, I have downloaded a stock update.zip for it but not the original KitKat one which I get from the first time I bought it but rather the JB ones. I think by flashing this would help me recover the device but the only problem is I don't know which method should I use to Flash it. Since I don't have the Stock Recovery or ANY kind of recovery at all, I guess I'm stuck. And it won't start to the home page so I can't set the USB debugging options. Please guide me through this >.<
Thanks a lot!
Been fighting with it for 2 days now and still no result came.
So here's the update so far....
I tried on my other device in order to understand how my PC reads ADB and now I kinda gets it. But the problem is now can't get the device to enable USB Debugging because I can't access options at all.
Secondly, since I left it on for the night because charging seems to trigger the bootloop too, now I can't access the fastboot mode like I was last night. And it constantly repeating this sequence: [battery scene with the "charging battery" symbol] > [HP Powered by Android screen] repeated for 2-3 times > [low battery need charging screen] > repeat. And once I tried to connect to the PC, it goes to the same sequence too. When I tried to access the boot options (the screen which displays Fastboot Mode, Normal Boot, Recovery Mode, and UART Mode which I mention in Thread Starting post), it shows the low battery need charging scene and then repeating the same sequence as mentioned above.
I seem to figure out how to fix this but I still can't manage to access the fastboot mode yet. Will give update once I can try to.
Anyone can help me on this?
Thanks a lot!
Update!
Somehow with a little tweaking and stripping the device, I managed to solve the charging problems. Will update on this once my problem finished.
Jump out from the frying pan and into the fire so they say, I ran into another problem. Finally managed to get into fastboot mode, the devices manager reads it as an Android Device>ROMaster ADB device like the other device I tried to connect while in ADB mode and fastboot mode, but somehow CMD cannot read the device as an ADB device or a Fastboot device like the other device did. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver and still nothing happens. I tried to find the usb_driver on the internet and it directs me to the update.zip instead. Trying to update the driver via Computer Management but it says the driver is up to date. Now thinking about making an emulator device based on the HP 7 VoiceTab 1321RA but I really have no idea how to make one. Any one have any idea of what should I do next or can guide me through this? At least until the CMD can read the fastboot.
Thanks a lot!
I found my self in a deadlock!
PLEASE HELP :crying:
Could you unbrick yours
What service centre says about that problem i also ran in this problrm but i m trying to go to service centre for that
first off install drivers in your PC as admin
then use the official flashtool to flash ur stock firmware by entering fastboot or flashmode simple as that
@Sunderesh, thanks for the suggestion, however, couldnt get any official flashtool for hp voicetab. Can you suggest one please?

Nabi 2 hangs on bootloader

I have searched a lot on google and xda and havn't found an answer to my issue. Either I'm searching for the wrong thing or I have a very unique problem.
My basic problem is on two Nabi 2's I can't access the bootloader in order to be able to fastboot TWRP (or any other recovery). It just perpetually hangs.
Both tablets boot just fine. Both tablets are on 1.9.37. Both tablets can be factory wiped via the stock recovery.
Both tablets were rooted via TWRP 2.3.3.0 a few years ago in order to install gapps. I wanted to be able to upgrade the tablets to JB when it came out so I used Nabilablite to "return to stock". I followed all of the prompts and it appeared as though everything worked as desired. I downloaded the OTA update told it to install and never looked at the version again...I just assumed it installed. Handed the tablets back to the kids and everyone was happy. Apparently all I did was flash the stock recovery because they are still rooted and have gapps after several factory resets.
Now (a year later) I have realized I was a dufas and didn't actually effect the change I wanted.
If I hold Vol+ & Pwr buttons it loads to the recovery/boot menu with "boot normally" "fastboot protocol" "recovery kernal" and "forced recovery". If I boot normal, the tablet works fine but I can't update via OTA.
If I choose fastboot protocol it just hangs...for ever...HOW DO I FIX THIS!?!?!
If I choose recovery kernal it loads the stock recovery but still wont install any update OTA or otherwise, even from the sd card.
If I choose forced recovery nothing happens, it also appears to just hang.
If I hold Vol- & Pwr button the nabi logo flashes then the device turns off.
If I hold Vol+ & Vol- & Pwr buttons it appears to be the same as just Vol+ & Pwr.
With the tablet on and fully booted I can see it via ADB. I tried using the adb restart bootloader. The tablet reboots but then just hangs never actually loading the boot loader...
I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2587543. But aicjofs mentions seeing a bootloader issue once before.
Usually when it hangs at the Nabi logo it means you don't have the USB cable plugged in or that the fastboot driver is not installed.(Check device manager and see if fastboot driver is installed/no exclimation point). If that's not the issue then it's the bootloader which I have only seen one person have that issue. Depending on which OTA's you have ran there was an update to a Jellybean bootloader so it's possible. That can be fixed with nvflash or placing the bootloader blob in the staging partition.
Also you can always get recovery back without fastboot in Android by dd'ing the recovery over.
For example if the recovery image is on the internal SD
dd if=/data/media/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/SOS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have NO idea what dd'ing the recover over is...
Thank you for any help fixing this.
P.S. I have a 3rd tablet that I also used TWRP 2.3.3.0 on to root and install gapps with. I did NOT use nabilablite on that tablet to return to stock. Yesturday I used fastboot to flash TWRP 2.6(something) to flash a JB OTA update which worked fine. It was also able to download and install every other OTA update all the way to the most recent KK with no problems...

EDIT: OOOPPS. I didn't see this was in the XDA Assist section. I'm not suppose to answer questions(I was just searching for Nabi questions and didn't notice this was XDA assist), dedicated XDAers just point you in the right direction in this section. Please ask the question again in the Nabi2 section and I'l come help you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nabi-2
This might help answer some questions http://forum.xda-developers.com/nabi-2/general/nabi-information-t3229119
If it just hangs at fastboot protocol then the USB connection isn't good or fastboot driver isn't installed most of the time. Can you verify fastboot shows up in device manager?(I know the 3rd tabet worked OK) .
Nabilabite doesn't do anything that should change the bootloader, and fastboot should still work as it did before.
dd'ing recovery over means that you use the root access you have in Android to flash the recovery partition instead of using fastboot. IT's just another way of getting the TWRP recovery on the tablet.
The stock recovery won't install the OTA because when you added Gapps it changed some fies and the OTA sees those files as invalid and will fail.
Forced recovery always looks blank screen. It's waiting for you to give it a bootloader to run(beyond the scope here).
You should be able to get back on track once you have TWRP loaded. It's one of 3 things. Bad USB connection, fastboot driver not installed right, bootloader damage. Check the first 2 issues despite the fact the 3rd tablet had no such problems.
One of the XDA smart guys fixed my error of posting this in the wrong section.
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate and have installed and re-installed the drivers several times. When the tablet's are fully booted ADB has a good connection and sucessfully sends the command to reboot. So I don't believe there is a driver or USB cable error...
When the tablets hang on the fastboot protocol my computer makes the usb connecting noise but fails to install the drivers...
When I hit forced recovery I hear the unrecognized USB device sound...
These two things make me think I don't have the proper drivers installed...but I don't understand how the driver's work when the tablet is booted but not when trying to access the boot loader.
It appears as though I'm going to have to try the dd method if you are able to point me in that direction please.
EDIT: Now I'm thinking I really DON'T have the fastboot drivers installed. I just plugged the 2nd tablet that hands on the fastboot menu and fastboot failed. I also booted the tablet completly, the adb driver's installed correctly but the fastboot driver's did not...I have installed the 64 bit driver's included with nabilablite. I can't find any actual other downloads. The 15 second ADB installer didn't change anything...

Very annoying & sudden ADB issue

So I recently pulled my G Watch back out and installed the most recent OTA 6.0.1, installed TWRP, the custom kernel, and rooted it. Obviously all of that required ADB to function correctly. It did perfectly. I installed ADB using the 15 Second ADB Installer, and used WinDroid Toolkit to flash TWRP and get into recovery and do the rest, that by default installed the ClockworkMod ADB drivers, all of this on my Windows 10 PC.
Those drivers worked perfectly. Until today.
I did a fresh install of CM13 on my Nexus 5 phone, which my watch was paired to at the time. I wiped everything and started over, so I then went into my watches settings and did the Factory Reset so I could start fresh and resync up with my new rom install on my phone.
But when I try to connect via ADB or even try to list the devices it always states "Unauthorized"...
For whatever reason, no matter what I try it wont bring up the prompt on my phone to authorize this computer.
I revoked Debug permissions on both my watch and my phone, tried different usb ports, turned off and on debugging in all its forms on both my watch and phone, plus restarted all my devices and my PC. I have tried google's adb drivers as well.
Not sure what else there is to possibly try, seems I have covered all my bases here. Just doesn't make sense that it worked and now all the sudden it doesn't...
Glad I'm not the only one having this problem! I've tried same exact methods you mentioned with no luck. Hopefully someone knows what's going on here and provide a solution
Maybe deleting the keys in the computer will fix it. If it works with another computer, then it's the solution. On Mac, they are stored in a folder called .android in the home folder, if I recall correctly. Anyway it should be easy to find online how to delete the keys in the OS you're using.
What I did was first authorise my phone to my pc's adb then I copied adb_keys from /data/misc/adb/ on my phone to my pc. I then copied that while in TWRP on my LG G watch to the same directory /data/misc/adb/ and rebooted to system and voila adb access restored!
Thanks for your suggestions guys, but I officially give up figuring this out. Tried other computers and it still says "unauthorized." Tried both Windows 10 and Ubuntu and still the same error. Some thing's definitely happened since Wear 6.0 update or maybe invisible kernel for 6.0?
@Xmaster24 I would try your TWRP way, but I never installed it as I didn't see the need for it. I don't think there's a way to install it now without ADB, is there?

adb is absolutely not required. seeing as you are running 6.0.1 get the custom TWRP from my root guide here and follow the instructions on flashing the recovery. Seeing as you don't have adb you will just have to power off your watch and boot it up and swipe top left to bottom right as soon as you see something

Hello
I have the same problem as author of this thread. How can I get authorize adb? I need it to push some files to internal memory.
I suffer the same problem.
Ok, I found solove for this problem. Just what you need is back to stock for example by this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-watch/development/script-lg-g-watch-tool-t2820863 or manually("fastboot flash" command): http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-watch/development/how-to-to-stock-rooted-6-0-t3339875 If you will have bootloop, you need to factory reset in twrp and reboot. To boot into twrp when you have bootloop you must enter to bootloader mode and write in cmd "fastboot boot YourTwrpName.img" command. I used twrp from this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-watch/development/guide-how-to-root-lg-g-watch-6-0-1-t3320512 After all you can update your watch to actual android wear version and again root/ change kernel.
Sorry for my bad english. I am not native speaker.

Sorry, but, with ADB in "unauthorized" state it can't be done.
Guys, read Xmaster24's posts in first page. That's how I fixed it.

Why? Fastboot is diffrent thing than adb and it should work without 'adb authorization'. I used this method and it worked for me.

If you don't have copy of adb keys on watch sdcard, probably you cant use his fix(or am I wrong?). By the way, how can I mange files in TWRP mode without working adb? In TWRP is special option/ command for mange files by PC or something like that? If I connect watch to PC I can't see it as mass storage.

You had flash 5.1.1 and then upgrade to 6.0.1? Are there bootloader compatible?

You only need to have adb_keys file on the phone not the watch. In my case, I was able to use adb perfectly fine while I was in TWRP. Basically here's what I did:
1. Copy adb_keys file from your phone to computer. It is located in /data/misc/adb. If you can't see the file, you probably have to authorize your phone first with your computer.
2. Flash TWRP recovery from XMaster24's link using fastboot on your watch.
3. Boot into recovery. You don't need go into any options. While on the recovery homescreen, Just use this command to transfer adb_keys file into your watch:
Code:
adb push adb_keys /data/misc/adb
You can check using "Files" option in recovery to see if the file is transferred into the watch.
4. Reboot your watch and you should be able to access adb now.
You can do it your way as well, but using xmaster24's method saves time, I think

It's compatibile but can occur bootloop. If you will have bootloop, you must do that what I write some posts earlier.
I'm realised that my phone with MM do the same bug, unauthorized, I look for adb_keys file but folder ADB is empty, then only remains flash and update on the watch.

Can't get file onto HTC One M9 because I don't have adb. How?

I have an answer to this. I had the problem, then I found the solution and now I'm sharing it:
Problem: I tried to put SuperSU on my M9 with CM-13 because I thought I needed root (you don't, under developer options there is the ability to turn on root essentially). So I flashed SuperSU from an apk and then it auto-updated itself then rebooted and got in a start up loop! Now I couldn't access the phone via adb, I'm not sure why. I think USB Debugging was off, but I'm not sure. AND I had not installed SuperSU from a zip so I didn't have that file laying around! So I went and got the latest SuperSU which I heard would work (it did) here: http://download.chainfire.eu/969/SuperSU/ THEN....how do I get it on my phone? I mean, who has a micro-SD reader laying around...not me today.
I DID have fastboot working but not adb. SO....I went into my phone and launched recovery mode then I chose this new thing called "adb sideload." That turns ON MTP so your phone comes up technically on your PC via USB but it doesn't show under my computer. But then I was able to go to my command prompt and type "adb-killserver" then "adb sideload NewSuperSU.zip" and it loaded!!! And I could then boot in!
Now I'm sure I shouldn't have SuperSU running but at least now I can put all the needed binarys (like CM and gApps to get started if I needed to from scratch) on !!!
So it works now.
