Hello,

Was having exactly this issue: step 7 in the bug description with a
Toshiba Satellite C55-A-11Q laptop. Everything was verified, secure boot
mode on, UEFI boots shimx64, shimx64 launches grub2, correct UEFI
entries (using efibootmgr). Never used boot-repair. The only thing I
made: adding a grub2 menu entry in a new /etc/grub.d/50_win8 file as
suggested in comment #25. But Windows 8 refused to boot from Grub, only
from system setup menu (F12 key).

This was resolved by upgrading the BIOS to the last version (from Toshiba 
support Web site - e.g. for this laptop from 1.00 to 1.30).
Now the laptop can boot, with secure boot mode on, from Grub menu: Ubuntu, 
Windows 8, system setup (UEFI) without any problem.

Only my two cents, there is probably a bug in the booting chain, but not
only, some buggy BIOS can let you search for days a solution to this
problem.

Cordially,
