After rooting I try to open SU and Superuser says needs updated but says unable to install when I click on it to update (it says choose your install method but only gives one option anyway). I try rooting with SuperSU and it first was giving an error that it could not update the binaries and this is bad it said; but after rooting again it now just says it is unable to install them (forget exact message will have to try again).

I am using a first gen Nexus 7, wifi only (no 3g) running Android 4.3. This is my first time ever unlocking and rooting.

Any ideas what to do next? Thanks.

WUGFRESH: Ill make a donation to your work if you help me sort this. I have tried several driver types just to be sure, tried all I can but still cannot get su to work.

Error updating to 1.7.2

Wug,

just launched 1.7.1 after not using it for a while. I was prompted to update, it downloaded, hash check matched, then got the errors in the attached screenshot. There was a message about rebooting Windows and running the update again. After I clicked "Closed" the NRT kept chugging along, prompting me for my device and version, then to download the latest SuperSU and TWRP. After that, it started up, seemingly OK. I closed the NRT, restarted, and it seems OK.

I should note the I had run adb shell from the Android SDK, but exited prior to updating the NRT. One thing I've noticed is that the adb.exe process continues. I usually End it in the Task Manager, but did not this time. I mention that, given the errors. Not sure if it's related.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] kalash_uhuru:
As said above, reboot into recovery and install su zip, its in SD folder named Readytoflash
[Nexus 7 Android Development] eBandit078:
[/COLOR]

Says "This operation may install incompatible software and render your device unusable."

Got it, I was worried when seen that. It seems ok now. Thanks.

Your donate to me link doesnt work.

Also now that I am rooted, I assume the nrt doesnt put a custom ROM on there? So I do that and kernal next. But wipe it first?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] melfunn:
I have run wug's toolkit to unlock, no problem. However when I try to run the root with recovery root doesn't take. The script runs as though it worked but when I open super su I get a message that says "There is no supersu binary installed" Any ideas?

Edit: Like I should have done in the first place, I read a few posts back & found the solution. TWRP, Install latest su ver. on SD card. Thanks everyone for a great forum.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] carberoz:
really sorry, i think im in the wrong thread
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
All the code is finally finished for v1.7.3. Just waiting on androidfilehost to give me the last piece of the puzzle I need to fully integrate with their severs. Hopefully in the next few days.

So v1.7.3 of the toolkit will now be fully backed by both Goo.im and AndroidFileHost. That way if either server goes down or one is acting slowly you can just switch it in the main options menu. I know people have complained in the past about Goo.im being inconsistent or not working properly, so I am hoping this will alleviate those problems.

Big thanks to AFH for developing their alpha API and communicating with me throughout the entire process.

I also developed a whole system on my end just for validating that the files uploaded to both servers are identical.

Other features to expect in v1.7.3 are NRT - Live Log, which shows which adb cmds and fastboot cmds are being run in the background throughout all the procedures (in real-time).

Revisions to the root script to fix the 'no Su binary' some people have experienced when checking the also flash custom recovery checkbox.

Preparations for supporting the N5 when that finally gets released.

And some other fixes and enhancements.

Stay tuned. I hope to get this out for public download as soon as possible.

Cheers,

after rooting via nrt, my device doesn't show up as storage device in windows (7) anymore. doesn't matter if usb debug on or off, tried mtp on and off too?

I successfully unlocked and rooted my Nexus 7 yesterday using "Wug's Root Toolkit." It literally took me less than ten minutes to complete, and I ran into ZERO problems in the process. Thanks!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gamer649:
Thank you to Wug for the toolkit what has provided me with root for my Nexus 7. All went smoothly up until the SuperSU binaries but I read a few posts back and fixed that. But with that aside it was a really easy process to unlock and root the thing. It certainly is better than my Sony Tablet S what bricked last week.

Guys I need some help.

I have to send my GNex to Verizon for servicing. Was running CM10.

I have flashed the ROM (using ROM manager) image I had saved before flashing and have attached the pic. Its built JDQ39. Is that the correct Official Verizon ROM.

After that I have to click "back to stock" and "OEM lock" right.

Will that take care of everything??

How do I remove CWM recovery??

Please let me know. I don't have much time left to send in the device.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] geronemo:
Hi,

Just wanted to make sure.

Doing Flash Stock + Root followed by OEM lock should should install stock kernel, radio, stock ROM, Unroot and Lock bootloader right??

Also doing above should get rid of CWM or custom recovery too right?

Please let me know know I have to send my device back for replacement.

Thanks. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
Happy Halloween. Here is a treat!

v1.7.3 is now released. Update package is also live. I will get the full changelog up after I get some sleep. :)

This update fixed a lot things and added some new features like Live Log and AFH integration. Now that I got all that out of the way I can just focus my energy on Nexus5 and KitKat support when those files become available. Hopefully I will be able to support that device and android build very quickly.

Now to catch a few zzz's. Enjoy! ^_^

Hey Wug is it normal for the nandroid backup /w custom recovery to enter a black screen?

Yes i have twrp
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ThurstonX:
Yeah, TWRP backups (and restores) will blank the screen, then light it up when the process is done, then blank it if you don't respond after a few seconds. Just touch or swipe, and you'll get the message to "Swipe to unlock." That's true of at least the last two versions of TWRP, if not earlier versions. Call it a screensaver.

HTH.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] geronemo:
Thanks a lot for the assurance :)

One more question.

In Odin Mode the new GNex read:

Board Name: Tuna Rev 10

Board Rev: LTE - 10

In my older GNex Board is Tuna Rev 9 and Board Rev is LTE - 9.

Also the baseband of new GNex is 1515.9 and old GNex is 1515.10

Could be please let me know if that's ok before sending the phone back.

Thanks a lot again i really appreciate the help :)

Thank you in anticipation

Nexus 4 Not recognised by Win 7

So I installed this toolkit and the installation went just fine. I then read that you had to first uninstall any Nexus 4 drivers and install the ones in the toolkit. So I did just that and installed the PDAnet drivers. All was fine and I even got the success message after running the "Full Driver Test" in step 3 of the driver installation.

However now my Windows 7 PC doesn't show the Nexus 4 under removable devices in "my computer". The device is recognised as an Android ADB Device when plugged in but it fails to show up in "my computer".

I have tried using USB Debugging and MTP and PTP modes but nothing seems to work. Please help!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ThurstonX:
Never had to deal with that particular situation, but I think you can use the NRT to return it to stock 4.3, but that would wipe your data. If you want to keep your /data/media (stuff you've stored on the N7), maybe you can use the NRT to flash the stock ROM. It'll probably even download it for you. If you have a custom recovery backup, you could restore that. Sounds like your /system partition got nuked. Hopefully you have some backups, just in case.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ZeNphyre:
Worked like a charm... Had some problems with the drivers etc.... But by far... The toolkit has certainly made it easy to root the device... Thank you WugFresh...!!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] CBers:
Nice.

Should get my N5 on Monday (already despatched), so hopefully rooting will be possible soon.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lombak2006:
I have no backup. I've tried to flash the stock with NRT but nothing happen. It show a white "Google with lock symbol"
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
Use "Flash Stock + Unroot" with "can't boot up" and follow the instructions.

Can`t wait....mine should be here in less than two weeks, I am on the Nov 8/13 leaving the warehouse shipping....best toolkit ever!!!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lombak2006:
I did. And nothing happens.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mr-Glass:
I think I ran into that before trying to start from scratch and I had to put a check mark in Options under Flash Stock to - Enable 'Force Flash Mode'
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SLdK:
Hey Wug, first off I want to say -- this program works amazingly and I actually managed to root no problems. It's awesome.

My only problem comes when I'm trying to go back to flash because I messed up and want to revert. I'm currently locked out of the OS and am stuck at the color-revolving nexus logo. I'm also unable to access recovery since trying to flash back to stock.

I first tried to do a device on/normal flash stock but that put me in a boot loop, making sure I let the program download and extract correctly for my N4

I then tried the flash stock + unroot for my device for the softbrick bootloop. I get the cmd prompt to install and I get no errors, the install takes about 74 seconds. When I attempt to turn it on, I see the Google logo with the unlock symbol and get to the N4 logo, where it just stays forever.

I even tried doing manual flashing of each .img file and tried force flash from the options but the same thing happens for each. Although when I flash the system.img I manage to get to the system prompt where it says installing apps but it gets stuck at "starting applications".

Some help would be appreciated please!

Hi [MENTION=3110798]WugFresh[/MENTION], I was using your toolkit for the N7 and I was wondering wether you are going to build one for the N5 anytime soon?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
Yeah. I am working on it. I already coded almost everything for it but I just haven't been able to test it. My N5 should arrive today :D

Hopefully I can support it quickly. I won't know until its in my hands.

Stay tuned for v1.7.4.

I installed the pdanet drivers (option 2) and deleted the old drivers using this toolkit. Now I can't transfer files because the phone doesn't show up in "my computer". Any ideas as to what I should do?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] barbo:
I am no expert by any means but I have been using wifi to transfer files. Ithink there are several apps to do that but I like "WiFI File Transfer" (free in play store) - it works well for me. Another thing you could try is to change setting from ptp to mtp or visa versa - it might help. When yo uplug in usb check notification bar to make the change. Good luck

Hi WugFresh,

there any news of the release of version 1.7.4 that should support the Nexus 5?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 7 Android Development] WugFresh:
Yes. In addition to Nexus 5 support I decided to go for my stretch goal & also build some new cool features. This basically delayed me a day. I have some stuff to take care of in the next few hours, then I can resume coding. I really don't see it taking more than 24 hours from the time of this post to get it done and released.

All the heavy lifting is done. Stay tuned.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] TadeoNYC:
It automatically downloads updated files without asking for permission, but I don't think that causes the alert. I only started getting the alert after raising my security level one step above default. It isn't anything to worry about, but it is slightly annoying.

Is it just me or is the download link in the OP missing? I want to see if this has drivers that will work on my new Windows 8.1.

Thanks. Been several months since I used your toolkit, I've since upgraded to an HTC One but my daughter has inherited my wife's GNexus and I want to upgrade it to 4.4 Your toolkit is much easier and faster than using ADB and Fastboot from the commandline. I'm all about easy now lol.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
Most excellent. I have been having strange issues myself. My Olympus camera no longer is seen, yet 5 other digital cameras work just fine, three of which are also Olympus. My super zoom just says MTP device in the device manager with a triangle keylock sign. Nothing I do will get the computer to see files on this camera. NOW, my Nexus 7, being connected for the first time also has this issue. When I am in the bootloader it says "Android" in device manager and will not find any drivers to install. When I boot to android it then changes to both MTP and Nexus 7, both with that yellow triangle and I can not install drivers as it says none exist. I am still on the trial version of 8.1 and do not have any plans on upgrading from 7 unless I know for sure everything works. It may be very fast but I need my cameras and tablets to connect, lol....

I will see if your tool will install the drivers. Thanks WugFresh.

EDIT: Ok, well something is wrong with my main computer. None of the four driver options worked. However, on my much older Thinkpad laptop running Windows 8, it worked perfectly. Not sure if 8.1 is broken or if the latest Intel drivers I installed during Windows setup have broken a few of my devices. Anyway, just wanted the latest recovery using Fastboot and it worked just fine on my Laptop... At least I am finding a use for that thing still haha...

Err... Moving from a nexus to a HTC is not an upgrade dude :p
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rmiles7721:
Hardware wise it's a hell of an upgrade. Verizon CDMA Galaxy Nexus to GSM HTC One? No brainer. The VZW version basically ISN'T a Nexus in the true sense of the word unless you're putting a custom ROM on it (which I always do)

Yeah, I almost want a N5 but may wait a while. Doesn't do much more than my One. I'll wait a few months and see what else comes out.

1st attempt

so i've rooted my last phone, the Droid Inc 1, had a no prob doing that. little late to the game with my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus, but finally want to give it a try, now i'm pretty tech savy and can follow directions quite well....i've done so with your tool kit, which is pretty straight forward. started with Driver Initial setup, went through all 3 steps, but when i go to "full driver test"...it comes back with "ADB device was not found"..i've gone through all the troubleshooting steps and still the same..can you please help? much appreciated
[Nexus 7 Android Development] barbo:
solution - sort of

I had the same problem and never did find a solution with my Windows 7 desktop - I think somehow the drivers are screwed up and even though I think I am deleting all the old and replacing them with the new, adb doesn't work.If anyone can helop us with getting our drivers straightened around (assuming that's the problem) I'd be appreciative.

Meanwhile,I did find a solution to the problem for me though. I was totally successful by using my old Vista laptop (which I would like to get rid of but better hang on to). Wugs tool worked like a charm using the laptop. Maybe you have another computer/laptop you could try. Good luck

Yeah it actually doesn't matter what build you select that you are currently running for flashing stock. All that matters is that you flash a factory pack designed for your device. But FYI the proper selection would be "Custom ROM - JB"

Error Messages

Greetings!!

I am excited to get into some KitKat and get it rooted as well however, I ma running into some issues with NRT.

I am getting error messages that files cant be found such as modified nakasi 4.3 boot image and I have screenshots of this.

I also have a screenshot of my settings as well for all to look at.

My question is this -

Can I update directly to 4.4?? I assume that if I do since these files are missing I wont be able to do a nandroid.

Where can I get these files so I can do a backup before I update to 4.4?? Yes I did google and search and that fun stuff and couldn't find so I am hoping someone has these files just dangling around in the cloud someone. I just cant find these files I need for NRT.
