[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
I have a 16GB Nexus 7 that I'm about to pass on to a family member as I just bought a 32GB Nexus 7. I have a full back-up of the 16GB made with ROM Manager. Can I copy that back-up file onto my 32GB and then use it as a Restore or Recovery file? I'd love not to have to redo all the programs and configurations I have but I don't want to screw something up. If that won't work (or even if it will) is there another way to accomplish the same thing? Or should I just start from scratch on the 32GB?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
Titanium backup is really good, and if you have the pro key you can batch restore.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
I've used Titanium Backup before and have seen its benefits. That would certainly be a time-saver compared to restoring everything from scratch but not, I don't think, a replacement for CLONING the entire O/S (or whatever it's called). Right now my 32GB Nexus 7 isn't even rooted, although I'm assuming I'll have to root it in order to have the level of control I'd need to do a full recovery. My central question is whether using the Recovery process on the 32GB to implement the installation that I have on my 16GB would work or whether it would brick my 32GB or something.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
The only things I can think of involves rooting, so if you don't want to do that... Sorry I can't help
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitsunisan:
You should be able to do a nandroid backup and restore the data to the new device. I've done that with my Mytouch 4G and Nexus One before, not sure if there is anything different with the N7. Worth a try.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
Can you do a Nandroid backup on a device that doesn't have an actual SD card? The Nexus 7 has a portion (partition?) of it's internal memory that it designates as the SD card. If the Nandroid backup copies the entire internal memory of a device, wouldn't that mean that it was trying to copy the partition where its own backup file existed (meaning that the contents were changing as it was backing up)? Or would Nandroid ignore that partition? I'm willing to give it a shot, I'd just like to have the benefit of whatever experience exists about its feasibility. And -- I have NO hesitation about rooting the Nexus 7 32GB. I've rooted every Android device I've ever owned. Is there a preferred rooting method for the Nexus 7? I can't remember what I used to root my 16GB Nexus 7. Maybe SuperOneClick?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
nandroids do NOT copy internal memory. so you are good. you can attempt to backup/restore a nandroid from one device to another, but i wouldn't suggest it.

however, a Titanium backup of all your user apps with their data would probably be your best bet.

just make a backup of your user apps and data

copy the important files on the internal memory of the 16gb to your PC

unlock and root your 32gb, move the files over from the PC to the 32GB, download titanium backup, and restore the user apps with data. and it will be it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
OK, I can see the wisdom of using Titanium backup to move most of the programs and settings and NOT to attempt restoring a Nandroid backup from the 16GB onto the 32GB. One last question -- what is the preferred way to root a Nexus 7 now? I have read a TON of postings on the subject but don't have a clear picture of what method (if any) is generally considered to be the most reliable and flexible way to root these devices. I am able to use ADB to root manually but I don't fully understand what I'm doing, I just try to carefully follow the instructions. I would prefer an "automated" process if a preferred one exists.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahil167:
Hey I'm having a similar situation and was wondering if using Nexus Root Toolkit to back up would work?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croak:
Yes, you can clone via Nandroid between different storage size devices.

I did it last Saturday from my old 16Gb to my new 32Gb.

Did a full Titanium Backup and a Nandroid backup with CWMR. I then copied all of internal storage (including the Nandroid) to a folder on my desktop machine (it took about half an hour to transfer about 9Gb, gotta love Asus I/O speeds).

One I got my new 32Gb, I turned it on, used Nexus 7 Toolkit to unlock it and install CWMR, then rebooted with it plugged into my PC (at the Select Language screen).

Then I copied all the files from my desktop back over (took another half hour) and once that was done, I rebooted into CWMR and did a restore and wiped cache/dalvik and battery stats.

From there I rebooted, let Dalvik rebuild itself, and I was back to my old setup, everything working, widgets and all. Storage was also correct, I had 21Gb free.

Ran Titanium Backup again, made sure all my apps were reattached to the market, and life was good. Google does see it as a new device, however, so you may need to de-authorize your old device in Google Play Music, other than that no worries.

You don't really need to have a Titanium Backup, Nandroid will do everything that needs to be done, I just liked having the safety net.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
I'm having a lot of problems with Nexus 7 Toolkit. On my new 32GB Nexus 7 I've got USB debugging checked. I'm connected to my Windows 7 PC as "Media Device MTP" (my only other choices is Camera PTP). I can get to Fastboot no problem. When I start Nexus 7 Toolkit my device is recognized and a serial number is generated. I've unlocked my bootloader (during boot up the Google logo now shows an unlocked padlock). But when I try to get it to root it goes through several steps and several restarts until it generates the following error messages: "adbd cannot run as root in production builds", "error: protocol fault (no status)", then the daemon starts successfully and I get "failed to copy root\su to system/bin/su : read-only file system" and "failed to copy root\superuser.apk to system/app/superuser.apk : read-only file system", then finally two "unable to chmod" error messages about those two actions.

I assume that all of this stems from one problem but I can't figure out what it is. Help?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croak:
Which root option are you choosing in N7 Toolkit? Option 3 is your best bet, as it doesn't rely on ADB for the heavy lifting, as it slides the root access in via Recovery.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stewarta:
I am about to do the same thing from one Nexus 7 16Gb to the latest Nexus 7 32Gb and I will again use Wugfresh's Root Toolkit method. It is a simple system and one can unroot at the end of the process. I did that to get to KitKat.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asked Man:
Sorry if this was answered somewhere else, but I just can't find it either on Google or with the forum search tools.

Running currently on CM9.1, but I recall this 'issue' on all ICS roms I tested.

When I change my display to 24-hours (default for Brazilian locale), the time is displayed like 09h00. I would like it to be displayed as 09:00.

The h takes a lot os space and forces the numbers over the other labels.

I know it is purely cosmetical, but I would like to change it anyway :D

Funny thing is that the 12-hour clock shows the : as expected.

16GB version. Even if they're the same, with one just locked down, that doesn't mean you'll ever unlock it. It's like saying that just because it has an FM radio that you can ever use it

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadowfox993:
Early in October the nexus was rumored to be $399 for the 8gb model releasing on October 29. But now it's been changed, obviously the 16gb model is the same price as the galaxy nexus 16gb was on google play. Now I hear this whole complaint about other companies not wanting to sell the phone due to the. Price. What does everybody think of this??? It's scaring me a little.

My HOX takes low quality pictures on low light conditions. Under the sunlight there is no problem but when i take photos at night and under folerscent it takes sephia and wrong colors. I try 2 diferrent custom rom but all the same. it shows normal on screen but i think it happens when processing..
[HTC One X] chrispy_212:
Is it worse than a normal cameraphone? And have you tried adjusting the white-balance for your indoor lighting?

The small aperture on camera-phones reduces the quality of low-light photography; you may just be experiencing this unfortunately! Adjust white balance, experiment with ISO options, and activate the flash for the best result.

If you wish, post a sample photo here so we can see whether it is abnormally poor.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
First make sure you're using the latest odin available. Second, a lot of time for me, my phone will only get recognized on certain usb ports on my computer so odin doesn't see it. For example the two top front ports don't recognize it at all. The middle two do. I have an idea of why but haven't bothered to try fixing it. Point is, try every usb port u have. If it still doesn't recognize it, try reinstalling kies and the latest usb drivers for our device. (there are generic usb drivers for it)

Gpu overclocking is not working this way. Our gpu speed is linked to the main bus speed. To overclock the gpu, you need to overclock the bus (this is known as liveoc for the i9000).
