You probably can't get into CWM recovery now (you are not rooted at the moment). When you see exclamation mark just press vol - and + simultaneously. Then you will get into stock recovery. Just wipe data from here (factory reset) and try again with rooting.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackajay:
i google for the issue i am getting /data/local/tmp/boomsh file not found. i could see many cases where people have reported the problem. can anyone say if there is any solution for this or only factory reset is the only option. if i do factory reset will i be able to be back on track. i dont want to lose my datas :(

Pls help me solve this issue also i would like to thank all of you for giving me information whenever asked.

Thanks a lot,

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corrinti:
Only one note: as far as you have TB of your apps + data, you will be able to get them back after successful root.

If you need your sms messages, then backup them with any SMS backup app from GooglePlay

If you have your contacts synced with google account, they will be back after new sync.

It will take some time but most important data will be safe to restore.

And for next time: make a nandroid backup before any bigger changes in the system - then you will be able to get back quite fast with all system settings.

When resetting the system do not erase your SD card.

So sorry for bad news but probably resetting the system is now probably best step to do. If it doesn't work next step would be flashing of full sbf.

i have a nandroid backup but couldn't able to get into custom recovery since my phone is not rooted now.i took nandroid back couple of days before when i managed to root my mobile.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corrinti:
Then you loose nothing.

- Wipe data/factory reset

- try to root

- if successfull install 2nd init and restore from nandroid backup (all) - then you shall have a phone in a state that you had before

- if not successful, then give me your current kernel (settings>about phone) and I'll try to show you which sbf from a list I send in message should be the best. Then you will root it, install 2ndinit, restore nandroid backup or flash any CMxxx and restore from your TB backup.

Hi Guys,

will this also work with a standard otg-cable and an usb-hub?

Cheers,

[Nexus 7 General] mvmacd:
I don't think so for 2 reasons. Usually even powered usb hubs don't give out power through the input port [The source port of the hub]. And even if it did, it would be 500 mAh [the N7 charger is 2000 mAh], which [edit:] isn't enough enough to charge the N7 with the screen on. If the screen is off though, it will slowly charge it.

Also, apparently this is already implemented in Faux's beta kernel, you have to use echo to enable it [it's explained on the thread].

[Nexus 7 General] NicoGa:
Can anybody confirm that it effectively works ?

Also, It would be good to to know:

- which Y-USB-OTG cable is used ?

- which power source, i.e. from a PC (500 mA) or a charger (2 A) ?

I am a little confused. The link says...

When a host mode adapter was recognized, charging of USB slave devices will NOT be activated and instead vbus will be raised in order to accept external charge.

If I want to use something that requires external power like a usb thumb drive, and the charging of usb slave devices is not activated; where does the slave device get the power to function? Is that shared off of the Y cable?

[Nexus 7 General] shiv81:
Excited!

Can't wait for this! I'll be staying on top of this topic for awhile. :)
[Nexus 7 General] Nizda1:
Alright I tried it using stock rooted using motleys kernel and while I could use a powered usb hub with 2 storage devices and a keyboard It wouldn't charge the N7 simultaneously. Although it didn't drain any power from the device either. Now this could be because of what I'm running or even one of the cords since I won't have a chance till the morning to test a couple more scenarios. All in all it definitely should be possible but may require a different kernel/rom etc. Though the OP asked the question regarding doing it w/o cm10 so ill try and stay within those parameters. On the touchpad I used to do it with cm9, as it was necessary especially with that device mostly only working with its 2amp charger. The reason I would only question cords used is I had previous trouble with an older kindle cable and when I tested it on a device I needed 1.5a it was hovering around 1.35a using my multimeter. Which was causing my Touchpad not to charge because it requires alot of power to charge. Ill update you on any progress and see I'f I can find the link foe the Ycable which I got on amazon awhile back.
[Nexus 7 General] AFAinHD:
I'm gonna have to do this. With this I will be able to finish my otg case
[Nexus 7 General] Nizda1:
I just read the code for the patch,its definitely looking like it will rely on the kernel as atleast in cm, USB slave charging mode needs to be suspended when recognized as host adapter. Regardless, I believe another Dev already implemented this and I'm sure others will.

Yeah. Now I'm toying with the idea of mounting a network share from a NAS-enabled router and put that in that in the car instead...effectively freeing up the USB port for full normal charging.

If you have an old Android phone, you could install something like Servers Ultimate on it and run it as a DLNA server. Load up the SD card in it & plug it into your lighter jack. Further, you could install a lighter jack in the glove box of your car so the old phone, charger, etc. is out of sight.

I am waiting for the 32GB Nexus 7 before buying one to replace my old Acer, and then I am thinking of repurposing my old Eris as a server.

Even though it wont have a data connection there might be other benefits to having an old phone running in the glove box, such as tracking your commute, logging info from Torque, etc...

[Nexus 7 General] mvmacd:
faux123, I hadn't realized you had this I your kernel when I posted this thread. But if you look at post #5 I mention your kernel.

but while we're on the subject, what would happen, with your beta kernel, if I plugged in my y cable to the charger, and then into my USB device, and then the other end into the OTG cable, and I didn't enable the otg charging? Would it burn up something inside?

I'm pretty sure a standard micro USB otg & standard y cable will work. Plug 1 male connector into 2a charger, plug other male into otg, and plug device into female port on Y cable.

the USB device is powered from the wall charger when using this hack, so if the hack is permanent, you must always have external power. However faux123's kernel has the ability to turn off the hack and be able to self power USB devices again.

Yes, I'm use the same username on Rootz. Check my posts in the thread for more info.
[Nexus 7 General] MetalMan2:
Going along with car installs... if you wanted to use a USB DAC that patch doesn't allow it (CM10 kernel limitation). I posted over there, starting with post #70.

Timur uploaded a modified patch (in post #72) which enables USB audio over OTG while charging :good: This was the first time I've gotten USB charging and USB audio simultaneously :victory:

The faux123 kernel has the nifty toggle to switch between OTG + charging and OTG host mode. This toggle requires everything be disconnected from USB prior to enabling OTG + charging.

This didn't work for me, because every time I toggled OTG + charging, and then rebooted (have to boot up with USB DAC connected to route audio through the DAC) it would revert back to regular OTG host mode (disable OTG + charging). This is what I'm referring to:

I would have posted this information in the faux123 kernel thread, but I don't have 10 posts yet and thus can't post in the Development forum... :crying: In any case I sent a PM to faux123 with this information.
[Nexus 7 General] dmexs:
Maybe I'm missing something, but what's the advantage of using a USB DAC over just using the headphone audio out?
[Nexus 7 General] MetalMan2:
Various users have reported that the Nexus 7 built-in DAC (which powers the audio-out) provides sub-par sound quality, especially where it will be used to control car audio systems. I can't claim that I would notice a difference, but I'm sure plenty of people out there would. And I personally upgrade my entire car's audio system so it would be nice to send out the best audio signal possible.

Besides, for quick-removal and quick-install into a car, not having to worry about plugging/unplugging the additional 3.5mm jack is a bonus.

From my Post #28:

Also there's a thread on RootzWiki on this topic, where member Timur has a working patch for CM10 kernel which allows PROPER OTG + charging (full-time) with functional USB audio DAC support. That patch doesn't have a toggle like the faux123 kernel, but it also works right with USB audio (unlike the faux123 kernel).
[Nexus 7 General] joediver:
Nexus in car

I've recently added this patch to my Nexus that's installed in the dash of my car and it works great. His first patch didn't show the battery was charging but the new one does.

I'm using a $9 card reader hub I got off ebay. It's powered via a usb-usb cable plugged into a dc adapter that I've connected to a hot wire to keep it on all the time. The hub had all the dc leads connected in parallel, so what comes in on one side feeds them all.

I'm using stickmount to access the 32Gb SD card and it works good until you try to unmount the device, then it gets funny. But I believe that's an issue with the Nexus.. I've setup tasker to activate the screen when the radio comes on and the bluetooth connects to the Nexus. I am streaming audio from the SD card into the radio via the bluetooth connection and it sounds great.

The only tricky thing was the was the power. Every cable I tried had different results. The voltage on the hub without the Nexus connected (unloaded) was 5.15v. The first cable I tried with it loaded dropped it to 4.34v which is too low and didn't work. I finally found one that kept the voltage at 4.90 which seems to be ok. I got the same readings using my car dc adapter or the nexus ac charger.

I've only had this patch in about a week, but the nexus has been in the car for months without any issues. This is a great addition to this tablet.
[Nexus 7 General] mvmacd:
Cool, glad it's working. But doesn't CM10 automatically mount your sd card? I know it at least mounts flash drive & USB HDDs, but it's all just mass storage, so I would assume a USB card reader + micro SD would also mount automatically in Settings -> Storage? And also I don't like Stickmount, it doesn't work correctly for me either, I made scripts to mount my usb disk, and umount, and I have [mostly] no problems.

[I have to kill media server in order to correctly umount, otherwise it fails to umount]

OTG+ Charing + HDD + Audio DAC ??? Possible?

Has anyone managed to get OTG + Charging + External Audio DAC + USB HDD. I can build a power supply that can power all that but i want to know if it will even work. The 7 has great potential as a car pc if this can be done easily and reliably!! It fits perfectly in my dash behind the double din hole! I know that you can get usb audio to work. But can it work with the dac while charging the tablet and accessing music of the HDD?
[Nexus 7 General] MetalMan2:
Did you miss post #39 on this thread? I described my experiences with this exact thing.

YES: you can have charging + OTG (including USB audio, HDD/flash drive, keyboard, mouse, etc). In fact, using the above-mentioned cable with a non-powered hub I had all of those things working at the same time.

Only downside is you need to boot up with the DAC attached (can't just plug it in while it is powered up).

See post #72 in the thread called "Can you charge & USB Host mode simultaneously?" on RootzWiki. (I can't post the direct link until I get 10 posts) He has a link to the kernel image which is the ONLY one currently that allows everything you/I are looking for.
[Nexus 7 General] joed1ver:
All I can say is duh!

You are correct mvmacd, it mounts fine without Stickmount. Thanks for waking me up.
[Nexus 7 General] irishboym4:
thank you !!!!

how reliable was the connection? Does it stay connected if you power everything down. Power down the dac and HDD but keep the otg cable plugged in without power? any glitches in the sound caused by accessing the HDD? I know the archos tablets have alot of issues with that for some reason.
