[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyphox:
Hi Guys

Another rooting/flashing noob here that's messed up his N7 sorry

I know there's other threads with similair issues but they all advise fixes involving using adb connection and usb debugging which I cannot do (explained below)

My device will turn on, it goes to the google logo with the green start icon, I can select and go into bootloader and recovery, if I press start it says booting failed in the upper left corner and will go no further.

My device is plugged in via usb, i have the latest rookit 1.5.5, and sdk installed etc, i also have the naked drivers and the factory images from google on my pc.

The machine came with 4.1.2 installed (nakasi-jzo54k).

To mess it up, somewhere in between updating to 4.2, rooting and unrooting it, and flashing it i must have done something wrong but being a happy button bashing noob I don't know what exactly...

And yes I also didn't make a backup of any kind because well I'm just a moron and lesson well learnt.

So yeah, I have no adb connection, can't go into debuging mode and it won't boot.

Does anybody know if there is anyway I can restore my tablet please? Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Many thanks

If you got half way through rooting, what has happened to your ADB?

Try the option "Return to stock and Flash stock image" try that.

What message does ADB give you etc?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyphox:
Hi thanks

Well when I run 'adb devices' in dos the device does not come up, blank etc

but if in the advanced utilities section of the rookit it will reboot it and say connected etc when i try to boot/flash image for bootloader, system, recovery etc but always goes back to google logo and won't boo up, can still get into bootloader and recovery though

i fully rooted it and unrooted it, i tried to flash 4.1.1 to see if i could thats when this all started

if i try flash stock + unroot option (device is on/normal) sub option the rootkit tries to check adb status and says not connected etc which makes sense as dos won't detect it, if this helps in device manager its coming up as...

samsung android phone

android bootloader interface

so i that driver in rootkit to manually install the naked drivers in device manager and it will say they are up to date etc

so the advanced utilities section for boot/flash image will communicate but no other.....

flash stock root used to detect it but even then in dos it would give me the 'too many links error'

I just hope there is a solution.... and i hope all that makes sense sorry

Cheers

Have you added ADB to your envioronment varibles?

If not,

Control Panel -> Advanced -> Envioronment Variables, then add the path to your SDK folder to it, after the other variables (Variables are separated using ; )

Also, try to install the drivers, using Wug's method, thats THE ONLY ONE that worked for me, unistall anything to do with nexus before hand.

Goto Device manager, find anything that involves Nexus or Android.

Then Start the "Full Driver Method" on Wugs kit.

This should sort your driver issue.

Then the Nexus should be visible through ADB.

PS- Your adb isnt broken if its accepting the commands.

The reason your device isnt listed, is the Drivers.

You have driver issues, so try the what I just stated and let me know :).

Have you even read what hes said?

He's already tried the toolkit...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyphox:
The first step in the full driver guide in wugs kit is to enable usb debugging which i cannot do though as it won't power on.......

I have added the environmental variabes before yes sorry, qbkings utube vids showed me how to do that

Just tried these steps

toolkit home screen, flash stock + unroot (softbricked bootloop)

then naksaki 4.2 jzo54k, auto download and extract.

it got to dos stage and i get 'Failed bootloader is locked'

??? thanks again
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyphox:
OK unlocked it via the main unlock option on rootkit and it unlocked ok, so im now re-trying te softbricked option to flash etc and its currently.. writing system...

Unlocked but... what do I do now?

Newbie but old or old but newbie - With the need and not just a curious want, to be able to "rename" my Nexus 7 v1 so I can see a friendly name in my old DD-WRTed Linksys GL, I finally had enough gumption to try rooting this tablet.:)

So, I was excited that when I used Nexus Root Toolkit v1.6.8 on my Nexus 7 v1, following the "easy and visual" steps, I actually managed to unlock this device. But when it came to the "root" part, the ADB repeatedly failed to recognize this tablet. I tried all the suggested steps and remedies, but so far, nada.

The tablet now boots past the white "Google" with an unlocked icon at the bottom, but nothing beyond thea big white "right-arrow" on the screen. I can choose a Wi-Fi signal to connect to, but that's it.:confused:

This is my first tablet and I have been playing with it for the past 3 months. I know people here are more than willing to help, so thank you in advance.

BTW, I am not that young to spend hours way past sleeping time to scour for answers and piece it together.

This worked for me...

Download the image file for your device which you can find at the Google Developer's site

Copy the uncompressed files from the image archive to the platform-tools folder of the Android SDK

Use the up and down volume on the device to get into bootloader mode. Connect the device to a usb port.

Open a command prompt in the platform tools folder and run the flash-all batch file to load the image to your device. After a few minutes I got the happy X logo to get me back to a blank slate.

Hey,

Anyone had any success with playback of mkv files yet?

I expected to be able to stream HD content from my NAS however it didn't work with the 4 players i tried.

Then tried copying a sample onto the unit but still couldnt play it smoothly.

Ended up converting to mp4 and that works fine.

Thanks in advance

I don't think it can play them naively however I use this, it works great:

thanks I'll try that when home, just noticed there's already a thread discussing this in the general thread so will keep an eye there too!

DICE, MX and BS played them but they just went out of sync and stuttery etc.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkuni:
MX has been MY GO TO PLAYER for all things MKV - especially the HD stuff. But, I think it's power comes from optimized cores for decoding. We might have to wait a bit for those optimized cores to come out for the Nexus 10's GPU.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vittogn:
I can't as well. Streaming 1080p 24 fps video seems to be not possible, even with your tablet 1cm close to your wireless n 5mhz access point. This is from my web search.

Can u guys confirm?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davin8r:
BSplayer just updated their app and provided an alternate HW decoder for the nexus 10 that works beautifully! Plus, it is just about the only app that will also decode DTS audio in .mkv files.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPW1:
MX player will play DTS audio just fine, but you need to download the proper codecs to do so. A search on these forums should point you in the right direction. Ironically though I did just purchase BS player because I love the option where it finds subtitles easily online with very little effort.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGrayHatter:
You need to determine if it is an issue with the app not being properly optimized or if it is your device throttling itself down due to thermal restrictions that is causing the stutterer.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jobrown22:
Although I like the interface of MX player better but with the new update for alternative HW decoder, all my1080p mkv files play flawlessly and that too, while streaming on Wi-Fi with BS player

Do you guys think a modified framework-res could cause a bettery drain?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
I doubt it, It depends on what you mean by modified ? If it is simple icon / colour changes then no, If it is something that increases the amount of power needed (like modifying auto brightness values or whatever is hidden inside the framework) then yes.

The best way for identifying battery drain is better battery stats, It gives you in-depth info of wakelocks, times, amount of power used, name of app etc etc. Its a really useful app !

Ot wasnt anything major. Just the lock scrren text 'swipe to unlock'
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
yeah and check loggs for errors, if the modification is not big free and triggering a recurring error it could cause drain.

also a modified framework, could have malware, who knows

Benchmarks NEEDED quickly

DETAILED BENCHMARKS

Please makae a video showing the various benchmarks

and also please make a video about Gaming Performance make a video of some really graphic intensive big games PLEASE

any heating issues or lag

1).Test the USB OTG with a pendrive of 16 gb or more as we will require this feature as N4 doesnot have microsd card slot.

2). I have heard that the colours﻿ on N4 are dull n luk washed off so please compare it with same content running on both phone.

3).I have also heard that the back is made up of glass and it wont allow any heat to pass thorugh it so please check whether the phone gets hot during benchmark or playing hardcore games for 20-30 mins.

4).how are the camera samples of N4 the colours,noise,low﻿ lighting conditions,moving objects,other basic stuff.

5).How long does the phone last on average usage.

6).Tell us how long does it take to charge the phone.

7).One more﻿ important thing which other reviewers dont mention also tell us about the call quality and vibration after all its a mobile phone.

8).Also test the sound quality

9).tell us any other problem or lag that you are facing.

it would be really nice if you can make a video or answer theese questions PLEASE BE QUICK
[Nexus 4 General] InvalidUsername:
First of all, thanks for the video. Try to plan it out better next time though, so you don't say "ummm" a lot. Still a great video though, and I appreciate the effort :)

As far as things that I would like to see:

1) Can you please a get a really good close up of the screen/bezel border on the front? I want to know if there's as big of a gap as the Gnex

2) Open up settings, and get a closeup of the background (preferably in a dark room). I wanna know if they fixed that stupid gradient issue in 4.2, and if LCD vs. AMOLED might make it less obvious.

Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] Danny80y:
I will work on these. But guys I'm not doing benchmarks..... there are some pretty good ones already done and I don't see that as being something I can do in a video.

[Nexus 4 General] DarkRyoushii:

[Nexus 4 General] Undeadwolfy:
Screen Sensitivity

Hi, appreciate the effort you're putting in friend.

1 thing I can think of now that I'm quite curious about is the screen senstitivity of the phone.

Can you do the following please?:

1. (If you haven't already) Go to Settings > Options > About Phone > Tap 'Build Number' a few times till you turn developer options on.

2. Open developer options and turn on the 'Pointer Location' option.

3. Keep an eye on the 'Prs' value at the top of the screen and make as light a touch as possible around the screen. Record the lowest value you can get.

Can you also try and input text at a rapid pace and see how successful it is?

The reason behind all this is that there have been some reports of very poor screen sensitivity on the phone meaning that higher pressure is needed for the phone to register a touch.

Would it be possible for you to make a comparison to another android phone? Galaxy S'x' or a the Galaxy Nexus (if you own one)?

There's a thread in the Q/A forum where people are discussing this but I'm not able to post links yet. It's quite worrying.

Thanks

CID

Hallo mike,

I managed to unpack the firmware.zip with jZip without any errors. I Investigated the files and I found the following code in the hboot_1.35.0000_signedbyaa.img file (see screenshot).

It seems that the firmware maybe could be flashed to a lot more cids. Maybe the android-info.txt file is responsible for what cids could be flashed cause there are only the following cid listed.

modelid: PM3511000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__J15
cidnum: HTC__M27
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__016
mainver: 1.16.401.6
btype:1
aareport:1
hbootpreupdate:12
RadioVer: 3.1204.168.32
erasebcid: 1

Is it possible to enhance the android-info.txt file like the one following (I got O2___102), repack it to firmware.zip and then flash it?

modelid: PM3511000
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__J15

mainver: 1.16.401.6
btype:1
aareport:1
hbootpreupdate:12
RadioVer: 3.1204.168.32

I don't want to brick my phone so thats why I ask before.

Thanks
[HTC One X+] mike1986.:
Well, you can unpack firmware.zip with any compression tool like winrar, 7zip, winzip or linux tools, no problem. Also you can't change the CID's list because this will break firmware.zip signatures and it wont be possible to flash it.
