Yeah I agree with [MENTION=3061145]milski65[/MENTION]. Something seems wrong. As in wrong version of twrp or a bad flash...

Also try the button combo again.

Completely power off.

Press & hold power+vol down until you see the android guy.

Now volume down 2x times to get to recovery mode.

And finally hit power to select.

Finally tried twrp reflash with flashify app and it worked! I can now boot to twrp recovery. Thanks for all the suggestions. Seems like it was just a bad flash. Thanks again.

Problems installing TWRP

EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed this was the Nexus 7 thread.

I'm experiencing the same thing as the last several posters, where ADP can't push files and I can't get TWRP to install. I just keep getting the red warning android on his back. No button combination gets me into recovery.

This happened when I was trying to just flash TWRP. I wanted to make a nandroid before I rooted. By using the Root and Install Custom Recovery option, I was able to successfully install TWRP, but now I don't have a clean backup.

I'm having trouble with the new systemless root, so having a nandroid of my unrooted phone would have really been handy in case I have trouble again.

I'm on Nexus 6, stock MMB29S.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Deeco7:
Same issue, TWRP doesn't flash on MM Nexus 7

I found a method of installing manually. Before you execute the command "fastboot reboot" hold down the Volume down button while entering the command, to prevent TWRP been overwritten.

Hopefully, this gets fixed in NRT, thanks!

Sooo..updated to 2.14 today, and went to update my Nexus 5 to the latest, but when I click 'change', I get the following error:

VirtualBox?

I'm trying to get a clue what's needed to get Windows 7 NRT v2.1.4 working on VirtualBox 5.0.14 r105127 running on a OSX 10.10.5 host. My tablet is an old Nexus 7 (2012) "grouper" currently running Android 5.1.1.

I carefully followed the steps in NRT's Full Driver Configuration Guide. In Step 4 Full Driver Test adb devices check okay. Then reboot bootloader occurs and fastboot devices fails with a "FASTBOOT device was not found".

The problem I believe is with the USB "Devices" in VirtualBox that operate between Windows 7 and the host OSX hardware. Initially the USB device is a "asus Nexus 7 [9999]" and "Product ID: 4e42" for the regular (ADB) connection. But when the Nexus goes into bootloader the USB device then changes to "Google, Inc Android" and "Product ID: 4e4o". The Serial Number, Vendor ID (18d1), etc., remain the same for both devices. Also, I did try fiddling with the VirtualBox Device USB Filters which seemed to make no difference.

I had an opportunity to briefly try my steps on a friend's Windows machine after installing NRT v2.1.4 and Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Bingo, everything worked as expected without any extra fiddling. The Full Driver Test completed successfully. I just did not want to impose by doing some lengthy procedures.

Any suggestions about how to resolve my VirtualBox USB "devices" roadblock on my own computer would be appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Bad Bimr:
[SOLVED] Uninstalled program and deleted traces of older versions and re-installed v2.1.4. All works fine!

Used v2.1.4 this to update my Nexus from stock rooted 5.0.1 to the newest 6.0.1. After completion if I select to cane the device I get an error

LINE 19089 (File "D:\Users\Me\Toolkit v1.9.3\NexusRootToolkit.exe"):

Error: Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded.

Pressing OK closes the program

Curious why it says v1.9.3 in the error as I upgraded to 2.1.4. Wonder if that is the issue.

Thanks

Tethering with NRT

nexus 5x on 6.0.1

Unlocked & rooted with NRT without flashing TWRP.

Added line “net.tethering.noprovisioning=true” in build prop using Root Browser.

Went back & fixed permissions in NRT

Tether works great.

If I flash stock & unroot will i be able to keep tether?

Cannot create Android backup

Using NRT v2.1.4, which I believe to be the latest version.

Also installed the latest 'minimal adb', to pull the adb.exe file, but it's the same version packaged with NRT.

Windows 10. No problem seeing the device I'm working with, which is a Nexus 7 with a locked bootloader.

Tablet is running Android v4.4.2 (KOT49H)

Whenever I try to start a backup, the tablet reboots correctly, launches the backup process and NRT pops up with a dialog box to save the resulting backup file. But within a second, the process stops and the log displays that the process has successfully completed, yet the resulting file is only 0mb.

I've tried setting USB to MTP and PTP (and neither) with no difference in the result.

I even thought that there was a permissions issue with NRT, so I ran it as Admin. No luck there either.

I've searched a number of other sources, including wugfresh.com itself, with no successful answer.

Any idea of what I can try or look for? I've rooted many devices blind before with no backup, so I'm comfortable doing so, but this isn't my tablet so I'd really rather get a backup of the device before I unlock the bootloader and proceed with the root process.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] goofball2k:
Nope, I didn't have this problem with downloading this on multiple machines. That's a fly-by virus, and it just kinda gets itself onto your machine through your web browser.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lanwarrior:
Will OTA update remove the root? I just got my N7 and about to root when I received a message that a new update is available, so I did.

Also, I am having a hell of time installing the drivers. The "automatic" driver install doesn't work - Windows 7 said the driver was not installed successfully. However, I can see my N7 under "My Computer" and I can browse the "sdcard" folders.

The "manual" method, which is to download the driver itself from the 1st post, is for 64-bit. I have Windows 7 32-bit.

I run adb and I can see the following:

C:\Wugs_NexusRootToolkit.v1.5.2\data>adb devices

List of devices attached

015d24a4290ffc0b device

What can I do now?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shawn_230:
Hmm, yeah I didn't think the installer was infected but I thought maybe there was a problem with whatever server the app tries to access for downloading drivers... seems like everything went wrong for me as soon as I clicked to automatically setup device drivers.

Oh well, I'm almost done reinstalling Windows... :\
[Nexus 7 Android Development] taming:
I just did it!

If this 60 year old scairdycat noodlebrain can do it, anyone can! I did install the "other"drivers before I started, and although I ran into the ADB issue, the directions for getting past that took care of it.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] productofusa:
I've got 2 N7's one of which is defective so is going back. Both are unlocked and are rooted via toolkit 1.51/1.52. The problem i'm having is no matter what I do in the driver install process they always come up as "other devices" with the exception of the first time I unlocked/rooted the first n7, in that case it came up in my computer as an additional drive like my gnex and all the other android devices i've had.

I've installed/wiped drivers/toolkit, rebooted computer and device between installs/wipes ect numerous times, followed directions to the "t" I think, but still can't seem to have it mount as a drive in my computer, only as a digital device. What the heck am I forgetting or doing wrong? Anybody else run into this?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] R3dbeaver:
PS: ive done all the OTA and did the update... on WinXP nonetheless. and it works. (just switch the USB connection from MTP to Camera to get rid of that additional yellow exclamation mark lol) and i did the manual step by step update. flawless.

just make sure u reboot the computer if ur doing it on XP and get the notice to reboot to complete the driver installation.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
I can assure you that nothing in my Toolkit would make this happen. I would never include malware or anything of sort in anything I build and release publicly, ever.

Assuming you validated the checksum of the file you downloaded with the md5 sum provided in the OP, then there is absolutely no way this had anything to do with my program. I know that you said "not laying any blame here", but there is no way to include a virus by mistake. That would be a deliberate action with ill-intent, and I can assure you again; I would never do that.

Also, to be clear. The toolkit doesn't pull down anything from the internet, except when you use the programs built in automated Nexus Factory Image downloader which pulls the packages directly from googles servers, except for Sprint devices; which it uses the unofficial factory image package I put together (since google doesn't); from this URL: http://wug.rootxs.com/toroplus-imm76d-factory-l700fd02_v3.tgz

For more information on that Sprint Package: http://www.wugfresh.com/dev/nexus-r...package-toroplus-imm76d-factory-l700fd02-tgz/

If you don't wan't to take my word for it, you can take Softpedia's, LO4D's, or Softoxi's:

Softpedia's 100% Clean Award

LO4D's 100% Clean Award

Softoxi's 100% Clean Award

Like another user pointed out, it sounds like you got hit by a drive-by virus. For safe internet browsing, I strongly recommend the following:

Firefox Addon: WOT

Firefox Addon: Ghostery

Firefox Addon: Adblock Plus

And to configure your internet settings to point to OpenDNS servers.

Hope that helps clear things up.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
The drivers linked in the OP actually contain two PDAnet exe's. One of which is 32bit. I will update the OP with that.

Base on what you have said, it sounds like your adb drivers are configured. Now reboot your device into bootloader mode and make sure they are configured in that state as well.

http://theunlockr.com/2012/07/23/ho...w-to-root-the-nexus-7-wugfresh-toolkit-method video

According to that video, it looks like they had success using the Samsung drivers. Maybe that would work.

{{ WugFresh }}
[Nexus 7 Android Development] productofusa:
Thats probably the ticket, and i'm guessing why they (gnex drivers) worked the first time automatically. The way Unlockr goes about installing the Samsung drivers is something I haven't tried yet so as soon as the 11 yo decides its my turn to use the computer (counterstrike lol) i'll give it a shot, thanks much for the idea!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shawn_230:
Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. Like I said I wasn't blaming you, I know people around these parts don't do shady stuff like that.

I run all the extensions you recommended and I use Google DNS, have no clue how this happened but oh well, my desktop could probably use the format. :p

Sorry to make you have to post a lengthy reply, I really wasn't saying you put a trojan in your app (it was the BCMiner trojan by the way, pesky mofo).

Hmm... thanks though I did find that workaround but I'd been meaning to reformat my main drive for about a year now so no harm done.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
It's cool, no problem. Happy we got that cleared up. :)

I agree on the reformat. If I ever deal with a computer that's been infected in anyway. That's almost always my first move. I don't even bother trying to remove it even if I know how. Something about a reformat just gives me peace of mind. Glad you got it sorted out. Cheers.

im on stock 5.1.1 can i root using this toolkit without flashing a custom recovery? or is it advised to use custom recovery too? reason to root is to use fstrim command manually or through an app.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Giozer:
Hello.

I just bought a Nexus 6P.

I would like to do the Root, possibly using the Nexus Root Toolkit.

But from what I've read, it seems that after the root, I can no longer receive updates via OTA, which also Google publishes quite frequently. So, as I understand it, every time I remove the root, return to Rom stock, acquiring the update and redo the root. All this should be possible with the toolkit.

My question is: how can I make each time all this without losing my data, settings, passwords, screens, folders, etc ...?

We can rest assured that the Rootkit maintains compatibility with the new updates Android?

Thank you, and I apologize for my English is not good.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Marcet:
You can easily flash the new rom without any wipe following this guide http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928. Follow 9. How To Update To A New Build Of The Stock ROM.

Just be careful not to flash or format userdata and you're good.

After that, you have to reinstall twrp or any choosen custom recovery.

The you can root again.

It's pretty simple. Don't be afraid to do it.

I recommend to make a nandroid backup and keep it on your computer before proceeding.

I have a Nexus 6 running 6.0.1 and everytime I try to root it I get the message "Waiting for your device"; bootloader was already unlocked the last time I rooted it (using another method), what do I do?

UPDATE: Nevermind, Whenever the custom recovery shows up, it asks you for a password, I did not know what to enter so I was hitting cancel everytime, but it's the phone's password, I think is not really intuitive for a user with not enough experiencie with custom recovery apps, anyway, it worked great, thanks!!!

Plz add support for Nexus 7 on Marshmallow

on Nexus 7 2012 custom android 5.1.1/CM able to root/install custom recovery using NRT does not works with marshmallow even after selecting *Any build
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Old_Crow:
I've always used TWRP custom recovery myself, because of the convenience of Nandroid backups, but AFAIK there's no requirement to do so in NRT. It will use a temporary boot of TWRP to install SuperSU (or whatever root software you chose), but permanently flashing a custom recovery is an additional option. NRT will also unlock the bootloader if it's not already unlocked (but note that that will wipe the device, so be prepared with backups of anything you want to preserve and you'll also need to re-flash your stock 5.1.1).

Hi, I unlocked and rooted my Nexus 9 succesfully with latest Toolkit. Then I wanted to decrypt the device using fastboot flash. I selected Boot (kernel) and opted for No-force encrypt.

The process seemed to run succesfully, but now it's stuck in a bootloop. It goes into twrp and I briefly see the message 'unable to mount storage', until it reboots again and it keeps doing this.

I tried getting out of it by pressing all 3 hardware Keys but to no avail, the tablet keeps looping.

Any ideas anyone?

rv: Any other suggestions from other users or the creator or NRT?

Hello,

I wanted to start using my old (Asus) Nexus 7 tablet after over 2 years of non-use. Now I was able to go through the initial NRT download and set up, driver installs without any problems. After having done this, I clicked on the Flash-stock + unroot option. After the first couple of steps (confirming my device, etc), the phase 1 of the process (formatting the partitions) started and somewhere in between the device screen went blank. Now, it appears the device is bricked.:eek:

I have already tried the usual measures

* holding down power button for 30+ seconds

* am using OEM cable and charger

EDIT: Apparently this tool somehow messed up. It did not complete/ messed up the "flash stock mode". And now apparently my device is in "APX mode" - which looks like it means the screen *stays black but the device is on and wont boot into adb or fastboot mode". Some more research has suggested that the likely cause is a missing blobs (no idea what that is) which results in the device starting but the screen remaining black. It shows up on the device manager under Other Devices >> APX. I dont know where to go from here.

But more description of (but not solution to) this "state" is here and here. Havent figured out how to sort this out - yet. Atleast i know my device isnt dead.

MORE EDITS: Apparently, I am not the only one with the issue. And a warning for anyone coming after me - one of the things that NRT does not make amply clear is that if any of it's unroot/ back-to-stock fails for some reason, you risk irreversibly bricking your device. The only way to insure yourself is to make a "wheelie" backup of your device, which can be used for unbricking yourself from practically any situation (except maybe physical issues like damage to cables etc). Failing which you are left with the option of replacing your device's motherboard - which i have no intention of doing. In other words, this failure has me kissing my device good bye. :mad:

At this stage I have packed up my Nexus 7 and have uninstalled NRT. Hopefully my notes should provide a cautionary warning to others.

it is very annoying complete configure everything from scratch (apps configs etc..), ota upgrade from kitkat to lolipop and again from lolipop to marschmallow was without data configs lost

what initially to make extra partition to save data, apps, configs apps, then make whatever and finally revert data ... back from such extra partition and delete it ?
