[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adamonic:
Thanks all, I do believe I actually have the correct drivers from the SDK and with the ones you sent me to, but how can I install these without the device being detected on USB, and no way for me to set the device into debugging since it is in boot loop?

- EDIT -

Ok, I finally figured out how to get past the "no command" in Recovery Mode. I was under the impression that the Recovery Mode would automatically bring up the Factory Reset menu and not the "no command" image. Reading further, all I had to do was press power and tap Volume up (I was holding both buttons) to bring up the menu. So after tapping VOL UP, I was able to restore back to factory defaults, set to debugging, and install the device and drivers properly to use the Tool kit.

Thanks for all the noob help. This forum is the best resource I've found for these types of issues.

I know wake locks have been discussed to death, but can someone tell me if better battery stats will help narrow down what specifically in "Google services" is using up so much battery? I've tried gsam and it doesn't really narrow it down. I've tried disabling many Google syncs but its still keeping my N7 awake enough to drain the battery way too fast.

The Whole Story ..

Suddenly , my nexus 7 starts freezing then rebooting many times .. after waiting for few hours .. it goes to life again , then when i use it for about an hour , it do the same thing AGAIN !! Freezing and Rebooting , i entered the SAFE MODE and deleted the Greader (i thought that the problem is from it) . for now , everything is Okay , until i received the 4.2.2 Update , after updating ( the problem starts now) i went to settings -> about phone , and kept touching the ANDROID VERSION bar to see the Jellybean animations .. then the device turned off and never booted again :(

for trying to solve the problem , i removed the back cover to take off the battery and replace it again ( to check if the device was on , with black screen) but no thing happens .. and the Nexus 7 is still OFF :(

Menu entry buttons not working?

I've got a very peculiar error since my 4.2.1 upgrade (which persisted when upgrading to 4.2.1).

After some time my "clicks" on certain type of menu containers don't do anything until I press the task switcher and go back to the window.

Anyone else had the same issues or can point me in the same direction? Tried searching for the problem on the forum but not sure what I should be searching for :)

A video of the problem is attached below:

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3mssOTLJtEINU10N0pUdW0yY28/edit?usp=sharing

Would like to try not resorting to factory reset but I have not rooted and not getting anything at all from the logcat. Do I need to be on a rooted kernel to have a logcat that gives me any good information?).

Something which is REALLY strange is that it only seems to affect links which open a new window, not when a function is called.

Posting here since I can't post in the ParanoidAndroid thread yet.

I'm running the latest PA3 nightly with the latest M-kernel mr1 and the 4.18 bootloader, but the Google Services battery drain issue is getting overwhelming. I'm thinking of reverting back to 4.1.2-based PA, but can I flash it since I have the latest bootloader? Also, I'm not sure if the M-kernel mr1 is compatible with 4.1 anymore, but at least the alpha ones were. Any help would be appreciated.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MxZeal:
Hey everyone!

I'm new here so hii :) currently my N7 is being shipped to me and im so excited, i always enjoyed modding/hacking my devices and i would like to do the same with my N7 i had some experience with : Ipod/iphone psp nds psvita.

So far ive only done a little bit of researching (about an hour) and i understand i need to use a toolkit then apply a kernel and ROM of my choosing to get mods i like right? or am i close? but i have a few questions..

Should i start off by learning to use a toolkit or should i start somewhere earlier to learn more?

whats the difference from the "original development" and "android development" forum? (im thinking i start with Android right? pretty dumb question)

what version of jellybean should i have to do these things, (still don't have mine so want to make sure i don't upgrade)

I don't really know much about the features in ALL THESE Roms but I'm thinking of going with the SmoothROM, or would you recommend something else?

anyway to get free apps kind of like jailbreaking?

PS i always enjoyed making my devices REALLY COOL and different from the defaults :)

Stock Nexus stuck on update to 4.2.2

My Nexus 7 is stock. That is, no custom bootloaders, ROMs, clockworkmod, etc.

This morning I selected the notification to update to version 4.2.2 ota. I didn't pay attention to it for a few minutes after that, and the next thing I saw on the screen was a "dead" android with the word "error".

I held the power / vol- buttons until it restarted, but it wouldn't get past the flashing "x". I tried that a few more times, waiting up to 30 minutes, same result.

I figured out how to get to recovery mode, but since I don't have ADB installed and would rather not wipe the thing, I'm not sure what good that does me. (I have no idea what the clear cache option would do -- do I want to try that??)

Trying to do this:

http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/mobile/ZSGv5zswdx8

http://support.google.com/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2668668&topic=2840575&ctx=topic

Did nothing, except that now every time I go into recovery mode I end up with "no command".

I'm a noob -- I used to load CyanogenMod onto my Nooks using clockworkmod and a micro-SD card, but that's the extent of my "advanced" android experience. (I never could get ADB working with a nook, except through wireless.)

I got it working again. Through a very tangled combination of Wug's Toolkit and these instructions, I was able to wipe the device and reload 4.2.1. (Wug complained about the lack of ADB access and wouldn't complete the flash stock for me, but it was able to give me access to the bootloader through fastboot.)

Hello, I have a problem with superuser.

Before I used superSU, I made an update of PA that has integrated SuperUser, after I deleted it superSU with the dedicated option.(on N4 I made this Before update and no problem)

Hitherto apps that need root worked. Yesterday I update PA again, applications that need root are immediately rejected without pop-up to allow them.

I lost superuser rights? I used the toolkit mskip. Should I start over? If not what?

N7 audio recording noise with screen off?

Haven't found anyone else with this one yet.

My audio recordings (with any app) are fine as long as the screen stays on. As soon as the display times out, the banshees come out to play. No amount of processing will mute the squeal on the recording. I can dim the screen to where it's barely visible and everything sounds clear (aside from normal hiss). But as soon as it turns off, the recording's unusable.

Asus wants me to RMA, like I'm going to send it off to college for 4 years--if I didn't need it here now, I wouldn't have bought it.

Has anyone else experienced/solved/imagined this problem?

Thanks.

Reflash the superuser or supersu zip. If you don't know where they are, google them and they will be in the threads by chainsdd and chainfire

I think turning the screen off stops some processes, so that might be the problem. Maybe the LP core but I am not 100% sure.

Obviously the cause is the screen going off, so brightness won't change anything. I have a feeling an RMA will be too much of a problem, I would just leave the screen on dull or use another device. I know that is not very helpful but honestly I don't know what else to say

You do not have a ROM installed. You need to install a ROM

If you don't have one on your device's storage, hold down power+dol down for bootloader mode and boot into recovery

Do adb devices from recovery and see if it is recognized

If you can't adb push a ROM you will have to use fastboot to fastboot flash system system.img

Odd question time. My son has a profile on my N7, wherein he has his own apps and setup. One of his apps is Flixster, to watch some of his movies. I understand Flixster doesn't work with root.

If I root my profile, does he have root access? If not, does my own root "break" his Flixster functionality?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poondog:
Bluetooth problem? Are you on 4.2.2 or 4.2.1? Apparently its fixed in 4.2.2 with the stock ROM/kernel

You can't root a profile, once the device has root its rooted. All the root things are still going to be in your /system directory

So answer is no it won't work :)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poondog:
So you're 100% sure there is no adb? In recovery, try connect your device to a computer and in command window type "adb devices"

Yep you need the stock img or some kind of img. I used stock when I flashed with fastboot

Basically, open up your fastboot folder, drop system.img in there and "fastboot flash system system.img"

If you used a toolkit, I think one of them has a function to flash stock images (?)

Well yes but as was mentioned before, other users don't get root, if you don't give it to them. I had kind of of the same problem with watchever (shouldn't work with root), but after a restart and forbidden root-acess for the app, it works on root and non root users. It was also advised to use supersu instead of superuser.

If I remember correctly, you have to hold the power and volume-down button when powering up, to get into fastboot mode, where you can do certain things even when the os is not booting, I used it to get into the recovery to rename a system file, but some tools, like the "nexus root toolkit" use it to flash even devices with bootloops and stuff.

Charging Problem with Stock Nexus 7

I've had trouble too. Unrooted, stock, 16GB, running latest 4.2.2. I've a high power portapow 4-usb charger, and a special portapow charging cable. I got those in part to see if I could improve charging times.

I use Battery Diviner to monitor speed of charging. The graph is less steep than it used to be.

One recent night, it started well, then levelled briefly and then rose very slowly.

What I have found is the usb cable, when hanging with the N7 on its back, shows Charging (AC). If it gets nudged, that can change to Charging (USB) or even Discharging! If the N7 is further back on the table so that the cable is supported, or if the cable is gently pulled forward, it shows as discharging.

Battery Diviner has shown nights where the charging curve started steep, had a hiccup, and then continued less steeply, so not charging as quickly. I have tried it with Wi-Fi off which helped until part way through the night when charging slowed down.

Neither it nor Battery Stats Plus show anything that is running and using power overnight.

My Nexus 7 has never been able to charge whilst in use, even using stock charger and cable. At best, it slows the discharge, sometimes it does not even seem to do that.

Sadly, in February, we used the N7 as a satnav in a hire car. I took the N7 cable with me, and left it in the car. We asked but it had gone missing. I cannot see a way to get a replacement from Google or LG. The Portapow cable is said to be better as it uses thicker gauge wire for less resistance.

Is there a problem with the N7 usb socket?

Is there a way to monitor charging current?
