If someone gets stuck with TWRP not launching (Google logo with an unlocked key at the bottom), try booting back into recovery mode, and use fastboot to install a different twrp image twrp.x.x.x.img . For me 3.4.0 did not work, I had to use 3.2.1.
When you do the twrp you have to do something like: C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\twrp-3.7.0_9-0-flo.img (aka find the path)
custom recovery.. once you have unlocked your bootloader and have TWRP downloaded. Just navigate to the folder and type 'fastboot flash recovery twrpxxxx.img'
Tks i finally did it... i had a lot of problems with my tablet. but after return to the old stock rom, clean everything and rebuild my bootloader... i could finally make all these. tks
You go to "Allow USB debug" on the tablet at 3 minutes. But it won't allow me to do that. If I could access settings I wouldn't need to replace the operating system!
Thanks for your reply.Any android would allow me to enable USB debugging if it were working normally, but mine is faulty. I cannot get to developer options you asked about, because I cannot switch on! The only thing it will do is if I press Power and Vol down I get the android figure with the options of Power Off, Start, Recovery Mode, and Restart Bootloader. Power off does in fact work. If I select Start and press the Power button, it goes to the Google start screen, which is then frozen.If I select Recovery Mode it goes to the Google start screen frozen, as above.If I select Restart Bootloader, it goes to the android figure and the set of options as I began with.I have used ADB and Fastboot. A Fastboot Devices command will return the serial number. I have then tried to use ADB sideload to install a new OS from my laptop. I have razor in the laptop C:\ partition, and ADB successfully reads this. However, it then returns an error message "Device not found." Even though I entered the device serial number as supplied by fastboot in the command (with "ADB -s"} , and it is the same number on the tablet android figure screen.The only success I have had is that the command: Fastboot Reboot Bootloader brings the "Reboot Bootloader?" screen on the tablet, (not the one with the dead android; only text) There are instructions with a Yes/No option. Selecting Yes with vol up, and then pressing Power turns the screen tablet off and breaks contact with the laptop. (although this is not an off state, if left like this the battery will discharge fully.)Sorry for the long reply!
If you are in fastboot and are able to get serial number when you do a fastboot devices... then the next thing you need to do is to flash TWRP recovery for your device, which is fastboot flash recovery twrpxxxxx.img. Once you flash recovery you would be able to boot to recovery. Then other steps is the same.
@@colinpierpoint5380 if that stuff doesn't work for you what I did was I pulled off the back cover of the device pulled the power cable off of the main board and left it alone for 5 minutes then receded it turned it on and it got past the Google screen
Does this rom fix the battery drain issue that the oem marshmallow rom suffered from. Basically the battery drains just as fast with screen off as it does in use, with shows as being permanently on even if set to turn off in standby.
"fastboot devices" you are running this command from different path , for for this is not working , device is not getting connected and im not able to run "fastboot flash recovery" command because of this Please help Thanks
yes please set your ADB path in the environment variable. If you install minimal ADB and Fastboot you can just launch it it should be able to use in any location
@@AskMike not true. several lineageOS builds lose some of the proprietary features, and my research i made after asking here, has led me to believe that on the N7 2013, lineage loses HDMI support.
@@AskMike newegg has the official dock for only 10 bucks right now, no idea why its so cheap. also i just tried slimport with lineageOS 16, and it hard locks the device
TWRP is custom recovery if you already have it on your phone then no need. For ADB and fastboot as long as your PC or laptop has it install you also no need to install it. As for USB driver as long as your computer can detect your phone there are no need to install the driver.
The battery life seems good....... anyway got this tablet there are lots of custom rom that you can flash, I just prefer Lineage as it behave some what like stock.
Hi there is already android 10 there is on nexus 7 make a video, and put the links under the description thank you I signed up and like me , Hello from Ukraine
@@dmo848 yes, luckily it wasn't hard. I just followed a guide to go back to stock and then I tried installing twrp again. The second time all went smoothly.
Hello i am getting this error in terminal when run this command fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0-twrp.img. please help me . What can i do . target didn't report max-download-size sending 'recovery' (4690 KB)... FAILED (remote: Bootloader is locked.) finished. total time: 0.010s
Thanks a lot.. Made it after many experimental attempts😂 But couldnt flash gapps. Showing 'error 70' "I downloaded Arm 7.1 stock version only" PLEASE HELP ME
6:04 when i type fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.4.0-0-flo.img , shows "waiting for any device" what happend?
me too
Works much better than the stock firmware. For Gapps I used ARM 7.1 pico
Thank you for this, Mike! You were knowledgeable and kept everything simple and easy to understand.
Thank you - You really helped me a lot on that. I've tried other versions of Lineage OS that failed or I had issues, but this one is perfect !

I am having a problem where it says in command prompt "'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."
Most probably the drive is not installed properly or even adb is not installed properly. Are you using "Minimal ADB and Fastboot"?
Ask Mike Yes, Ido have all the drivers installed but I have worked around the flashing.
When you do the twrp you have to do something like: C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\twrp-3.7.0_9-0-flo.img (aka find the path)
how did u do 'flash custom recovery'. i didnt understand at 5.32 min
custom recovery.. once you have unlocked your bootloader and have TWRP downloaded. Just navigate to the folder and type 'fastboot flash recovery twrpxxxx.img'
thanks just refresh my old tabled from 6.0 to 7.1.2 !!!
No problem, I think they have newer than 7.1.2 for this tablet. No time looking into it yet,
Tks
i finally did it... i had a lot of problems with my tablet.
but after return to the old stock rom, clean everything and rebuild my bootloader...
i could finally make all these.
tks
Good one, from now on you will be able to flash any device you want.
I don't have a laptop or chrome book I only have two android devices witch on is Samsung and one is nexus 72013 Asus how do you do this!?!?
You go to "Allow USB debug" on the tablet at 3 minutes. But it won't allow me to do that. If I could access settings I wouldn't need to replace the operating system!

hi, my device keeps showing the Google Logo and a opened Lock, after "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.4.0-0-flo.img". What is my mistake?
Now hold power and volume down together. And it will boot to recovery mode twrp I think from what I watched
My N7 came with 14.1 LOS. How can I enable wireless charge + OTG at the same time? Also need to activate swipe/touch/click screen to wake the device?
Would this work on the first generation Nexus 7, Android 7.0?
We can use CM15(15.1) on Nexus7 now. Very interesting
yes no time to update but the steps should be the same.
How ?? Not yet released ..
To much rambling... I came for the the title not a bunch of random stuff
Great video but you didn't show how to unlock the bootloader... An important step needed before being able to flash twrp
This video has it... ruclips.net/video/yjspQH8T1CQ/видео.html

So far it is functioning well... maybe you should try it out.

@@AskMike how i do it?
does lineageOS 14 support slimport HDMI on the n7 2013?
logically if it is supported in stock rom it will support in Lineage
@@AskMike not true. several lineageOS builds lose some of the proprietary features, and my research i made after asking here, has led me to believe that on the N7 2013, lineage loses HDMI support.

Hi I want to Update my Nexus too but here on your description you put 5 links but you used only 2 links (Lineage & Gapps) so what is the others?
TWRP is custom recovery if you already have it on your phone then no need. For ADB and fastboot as long as your PC or laptop has it install you also no need to install it. As for USB driver as long as your computer can detect your phone there are no need to install the driver.
Oh I get it thank you so much
No problem.
Like itu. No need repartion
Worked for me
Thanks you
How does it hold charge when flashed ?🤔
The battery life seems good....... anyway got this tablet there are lots of custom rom that you can flash, I just prefer Lineage as it behave some what like stock.
