I ran into the same issue. Did a full wipe and install of latest 5.1.1. After rooting with NRT v2.1.9 would optimize apps at every boot.

NRT uses the latest Service Release: SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip

Flashed with SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip instead and it doesn't optimize apps after boot!

TWRP Crashes

I'm attempting to save my Nexus 10 and bring it back to life. Current end goal is using the Lineage OS

I originally was having battery issues. Bought & installed new battery. Did a factory reset. All seems to be working well, but when going through updates and personalization, it crashes after maybe 10 minutes of usage. Once it crashes, it will not make it past the swirling colored dots. It gets stuck in a boot loop trying to load Android.

This has lead me to try out a custom ROM for increased stability.

DISCLAIMER: I am a total noob at all of this, but have been struggle-bussing my way through with guides and tutorials.

The only way to get my n10 to boot up is to flash the factory image. I was able to do this to enable developer options and USB debugging. From there, I installed the latest version of TWRP and this is where my most current problem lies.

When booting into TWRP, my screen will start flickering like it can barely handle the program and then when it stays solid, ill go to wipe, choose what i want wiped, slide the bar over to confirm, and flicker flicker CRASH.

Every. Single. Time.

Ive been scouring forums for more info on this, but it doesn't seem that many/any people are having this particular problem. Figured I'd try and start a conversation about it.

Try wiping recovery via fastboot
fastboot erase recovery recovery.img

Then have fresh download of latest TWRP for manta (actually if I'm not mistaking you need one or two back, can't recall off hand just check last few pages of TWRP thread for n10)

Then
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

Reboot to recovery

Nexus 10 Fastboot Problem

Hi,
I just got a Nexus 10. So I unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP, booted TWRP and then tried to reboot to Android (didn't change anything, stayed stock). It didn't boot, just lingered on the bootanimation for quite some time. Kept on retrying, nothing happened. So I tried to boot into fastboot and flash stock image from AOSP website, but it didn't work... just said "press any key to continue." Any fastboot command returns "<waiting for any device>." Tried all USB ports, many cables, didn't get anywhere. Now I'm out of ideas, and decided to plug it in to the charger and give it the whole night to try and boot Android..

I've had quite a bit of experience with Android hacking, and TWRP and Fastboot were always there to help.. Now I can't even access those..

Details:
Windows 10 64-bit
Android 5.1.1

I'm pretty scared right now..
Any help is deeply appreciated.
Thanks

    Hi, demkantor. Thanks for helping me, man! :good:

    No, I tried to flash a JB 4.3 kernel from here: hxxp://goo.gl/aI4ULX

    I tried all the three 4.3 kernel versions (TX3-4.3-ANY, TX11-4.3-ANY and TX17-4.3-2000-ANY) posted at the Trinity kernell webpage, all with the same result (Status 7 error).

    Quick Tips!

    Okay, so if you look through the Q&A thread here the number one issue that keeps popping up is "Help Bootloop!" and "Help I Think it's Bricked!"

    So here is a quick guide that will most often fix these issue (90% of the time anyway)

    First things first.... Drivers
    Now many of you have these installed, so if you can connect your device to PC through USB and are able to communicate with adb and fastboot just skip this.

    If however you can not, then you need to download appropriate drivers for Windows.
    You can get these through the Adroid SDK if you already have this
    Or direct from the OEM following the link HERE
    Or some say having the Naked Drivers works best, so try HERE or HERE or HERE
    If you need help installing these then see the next chunk on adb/fastboot or feel free to ask here as well!
    *Linux users just need the android rules set up, see fastboot link for how to...
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Click to collapse

    So after drivers are up... Fastboot!
    Well here is many's big fear, but fear not as the terminal is not that scary!
    For an in depth explanation on how to use fastboot, I highly suggest reading through THIS
    It will have all you need to know and if there are any further question please feel free to ask here or in the fastboot thread.

    If you have any issues running fastboot (or adb) commands, please copy and paste all input/output from terminal/cmd here so one of your helpers can assist better.
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    You can connect to PC and you know the commands.. but what to flash?
    For the most part we want to use the stock firmware found here (some OTAs HERE for another use)
    Download the latest for mantaray (currently 4.4.2-(KOT49H)

    Now check MD5sum or sha1 for a match (Linux use terminal, windows use THIS)
    If all is good lets extract the contents (I prefer 7zip but whatever)

    So if all of your prep work is a success then when you type
    Code: 
    fastboot devices
    Into a terminal/CMD you will see your serial number
    If not be sure you are in bootloader mode (power on while holding volume +)
    Also have a high quality USB cable if not the one that came with your device
    *Still have issue, ask in this thread!

    If you have a locked bootloader it may be wise to
    Code: 
    fastboot oem unlock
    Then follow the below info, if you don't want to unlock your tablet just run the flash-all.bat to get similar results

    And now you have a bunch of images, lets erase and flash so we will be oh so clean!
    *have everything backed up first! this will erase your tablet!
    Code: 
    fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
    now after we cleaned things up, lets flash back to stock!
    Code: 
    fastboot flash bootloader nameofbootloader.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
    (Everything should be named accordingly except for bootloader, so change this command)
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Congrats! You can reboot to a functioning tablet!
    Some quick notes:
    If you want a custom recovery, fell free to instead flash latest TWRP or CWM or whatever.
    You do not need to use stock recovery for the above to work, but you will need your custom recovery in a .img

    Similarly if you want a custom ROM instead of stock you can do this, but only if your dev supplies you with the system.img, if not just boot to recovery, make a nandroid, wipe all, flash custom ROM and gapps through adb sideload.

    If you still have a bootloop or a "brick" then ask us here and someone will be glad to give you personal assistance.
    Or for real time help you can see if anyone is at ##Manta_Help_IRC on freenode

    Quick Linux/Unix Rooting Guide

    First of all, you need to have Fastboot and ADB. To do as such open your command line and type:

    Code: 
    wget http://www.undergroundandroid.com/developers/xLordAIOx/bin/fastboot
wget http://www.undergroundandroid.com/developers/xLordAIOx/bin/adb
    Now that you have both files, you need to setup them to be able to use. As you're an Unix user you'll probably get what I'll do here, you can do it slightly different, but this way was the easiest IMO, also it makes the procedure for next times using adb and fastboot easier. Type the following:

    Code: 
    sudo mv fastboot /usr/bin/fastboot
sudo mv adb /usr/bin/adb
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/fastboot
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/adb
    Now that you have adb and fastboot set up it's time to start the real thing. First of all, make sure to backup your device, as everything will be lost in this procedure! First you need to unlock your device bootloader (if it is already unlocked, skip this part). Please, go to settings, "About Device" and click multiple times "Build Number", a new tab will appear in settings, called "Developer Options", go there and enable USB Debugging. Now plug your Nexus 10 on your PC and type this to check if your device was recognized:

    Code: 
    adb devices
    If something came up it was successfully recognized and you can follow up :victory:, but it nothing appeared you may need to check this:

    http://rootzwiki.com/topic/258-udev-rules-for-any-device-no-more-starting-adb-with-sudo/

    When you get your device recognized do the following:

    Code: 
    adb reboot bootloader
    Wait for the device to reboot, when it turns on again, you'll type the following:

    Code: 
    sudo fastboot oem unlock
    Now follow the instructions on your tablet screen. As soon as your bootloader is unlocked the device will reboot, so you'll now download the recovery and the Superuser.

    Get the TWRP from here (download the .img file): http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/128
    Get the SuperSU from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    Copy SuperSU to your device internal memory (that's probably empty now) and rename the .img file of TWRP to recovery.img. Now enable USB debugging again (it's explained above lol) and replug the tablet on your PC. Time for typing again! (Please, open the terminal in the folder where the recovery.img is located).

    Code: 
    adb reboot bootloader
    Wait for it to reboot, and then type:

    Code: 
    sudo fastboot boot recovery.img
    (If you want to install the recovery permanently in the device, type 'sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' before issuing the command above).

    Now you probably see a screen like this:
    eIDZ.png


    Click in Install and select the SuperSU zip that you copied to your tablet internal memory earlier. When the flash is complete, reboot the tablet and congratulations! You're rooted :victory:.

    Hope this helps anyone who may need it!

    Quick Linux/Unix Restoring to Stock Guide
    So you've decided that you don't want root anymore or you did something and want to restore to stock? That's not a hard thing to do! Just follow these steps and you'll be fine.

    First you need to have adb and Fastboot ready. To do as such open your command line and type:

    Code: 
    wget http://www.undergroundandroid.com/developers/xLordAIOx/bin/fastboot
wget http://www.undergroundandroid.com/developers/xLordAIOx/bin/adb

    Now that you have both files, you need to setup them to be able to use. As you're an Unix user you'll probably get what I'll do here, you can do it slightly different, but this way was the easiest IMO, also it makes the procedure for next times using adb and fastboot easier. Type the following:

    Code: 
    sudo mv fastboot /usr/bin/fastboot
sudo mv adb /usr/bin/adb
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/fastboot
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/adb

    Now that you have adb and fastboot set up it's time to start the real thing. First of all, make sure to backup your device, as everything will be lost in this procedure! First you need to unlock your device bootloader (if it is already unlocked, skip this part). Please, go to settings, "About Device" and click multiple times "Build Number", a new tab will appear in settings, called "Developer Options", go there and enable USB Debugging. Now plug your Nexus 10 on your PC and type this to check if your device was recognized:

    Code: 
    adb devices

    If something came up it was successfully recognized and you can follow up :victory:, but it nothing appeared you may need to check this:

    http://rootzwiki.com/topic/258-udev-rules-for-any-device-no-more-starting-adb-with-sudo/

    When you get your device recognized do the following:

    Code: 
    adb reboot bootloader

    Wait for the device to reboot, when it turns on again, you'll type the following:

    Code: 
    sudo fastboot oem unlock

    Now you'll follow the instructions on screen. When your device is unlocked, you'll have to download the stock firmware you want from one of those links:
    Android 4.2.2. - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/mantaray-jdq39-factory-d79f489e.tgz
    Android 4.3 - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/mantaray-jwr66y-factory-3d8252dd.tgz
    Android 4.4 - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/mantaray-krt16s-factory-94413961.tgz
    Android 4.4.2 - https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/occam-kot49h-factory-02e344de.tgz[/CODE]
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Now that you're done with your download, you'll extract the .tgz package the way you prefer. Now, open a command line in the folder where the extracted files are and (with your device plugged on fastboot mode) just type:

    Code: 
    chmod 755 flash-all.sh
sudo ./flash-all.sh

    The procedure will now begin. It can take some time to finish. When it ends, it's recommended that you lock back your booloader, which is as easy as unlock. Type (tablet plugged in fastboot):

    Code: 
    sudo fastboot oem lock

    Hope this helps!
