This ROM has been a headache. I noticed I somehow lost root a while ago when the "System Update" message showed up, which I didn't do, and finally got some time to reflash root. Nope, turns out my recovery is also missing. Went to fastboot and flash a recovery. No errors when I flashed it, tried booting into recovery and it's still missing. It just sits there until I force a reboot. I guess I'm going to have to wipe this thing manually and start over with another ROM.

Edit: After trying all I could, I found the source. Seems the bootloader was messed up somehow, and I had to reflash the bootloader. If you try the stock image from JWR66Y you will get a Signature Mismatch error. You need to use the image from JWR66V (see this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2417097). After flashing that bootloader it boot into recovery fine, and it was the version I had flashed earlier. Flashed the SuperSu zip and I'm back to being rooted.

Of course. But this is just a System. Unless you flash the entire stock image or the new bootloader image, you'll still have whatever bootloader you had to begin with.

File uploaded :)

There we go, the zip is finally up : http://androguide.fr/downloads/Stock-Rooted-4.3-grouper-by-Androguide.zip

Please download this patch for proper root access too: http://download.chainfire.eu/340/SuperSU/SuperSU-JWR66N-S005-130625-1.41.zip?retrieve_file=1

Flash the rom first, then the patch. Please refer to the OP for more details.

I'm gonna upload the package with the patch merged to it, but it might take a while on my crappy connection, so in the meantime if you're eager to flash use the patch.

I don't know much about kernels, at least not when it comes to compatibility. Will any current N7 Kernels work with Android 4.3, or do they need to be re-worked? Don't wanna flash one and then get caught in a bootloop
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pughie:
I don't think any kernel, except the pre installed kernel, will work on 4.3 just yet :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Yeah it will

I don't think so, some features such as openGLES 3.0 & Bluetooth smart will obviously require some kernel patches, binaries and such, so when the software requests it it will mess-up.

Just wait, most kernel devs will merge the new patches soon enough.

Reply no, the exploit for 4.3 root access requires a modified /system/etc/install-recovery.sh, which is the file that recoveries check for to display this message, but don't worry your recovery is safe.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] BobbaLouie:
After I couldnt restore with TBU I went ahead and installed a couple apps from the Play Store. After a reboot they were "not installed" for no apparent reason. Think I'll restore CM and wait a day or two until I have the time to tinker more.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mononon:
Alright, I got it flash. No noticeable change for me. Seems just as sluggish as I remember stock. A little more, actually. Chugs a lot when swiping and the sensitivity seems worse.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] bsoplinger:
I noticed on the SuperSU thread that there's an update to the SuperSU zip to deal with TiBu. There's also a workaround there. I recommend going there for full info. But the workaround as I remember it is to change the location of your backup directory to /storage/emulated/legacy instead of /storage/emulated/0.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] veeman:
Use Titanium Backup to backup all your stuff. Then update to 4.3. Then download Titanium Backup from Play Store and restore from backup.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Rody2k6:
Ok cool, and I could also use a NANDROID backup right? Which basically is like the last resort right, if the 4.3 update doesn't work and etc right?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] martindesu:
Any mirror for this guys? It's telling me a 35 hour download! ><
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Chopstick2U:
No, if you flash a NAND backup, you'll be restoring your device to EXACTLY the state it was in when you made the backup. That means you'd go back to 4.2.2 and whatever ROM you're currently running. Titanium Backup is the way to go. Just take a look in this thread because evidently you need to tweak some settings before you can restore apps after flashing 4.3.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DanJackson:
anyone know how to get tablet mode back?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BosnianKingdom:
Thanks a lot!! ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veeman:
Yes, you should do a NAND backup before flasing the 4.3 rom just in case something goes wrong. If something does go wrong simply boot back into recovery and restore Nand backup and you're back where you started.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Rody2k6:
WugFresh also has some backup options (other than NANDROID) such as Backup System Data + Apps (basically what Titanium does right?) it also has a back up Virtual SD Card, which I have no idea what it does. Do any of these 2 help me also?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jscat1:
Not working for me either. Saying not enough space.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veeman:
I haven't used Wug's toolkit, but if it says Backup System Data + Apps, then it's doing the same thing as TiBackup. I say just do a NANDROID and use Titanium Backup as I'm not sure if Wug's tool kit has been updated for 4.3 yet.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ghostface22:
will OTA work for future releases using this build?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jmcdonald58:
Read post #62 the workaround is go into tb and on top right you will see menu/go to preferences/backupsettings/backup folder location

its going to say /storage/emulated/0/TitaniumBackup

you want to hit back arrow at bottom until it reads just /storage/emulated then select legacyselect creata new folder and type in Titanium Backupthen select at bottom use current folder then you should be able to backup your apps I had to restore mine through play store before I READ THE POST

[Nexus 7 Android Development] bsoplinger:
To help out folks who perhaps don't understand about backups and flashing and need info and to correct a bit of misinformation. This is a simplified description but hopefully it'll help. I've grabbed the above quotes as examples and not to point fingers...

A nand backup is a backup of a particular partition on your device. (You can backup a bunch of partitions actually but I'm keeping it simple.) If you backup your data partition and restore it you will restore all your apps but you most likely will have one or more issues because you'll be restoring them as they were configured to run with the system data from the old system because you're restoring the data partition as it was with your old ROM. Titanium Backup, OTOH, saves a copy of the app and optionally the data for the app. If you use TiBu to restore all user apps and data it will be more like you've installed all your apps on the new ROM. This means a nand backup and a TiBu aren't the same thing. You don't want to restore any system data with TiBu when changing ROMs because the data will be for the system apps in your old ROM environment and your new environment is most likely different.

A restore from a nand backup will be much faster because its just a copy process, from 1 big file containing everything on the partition back onto the partition. The TiBu restore will be like installing each app you had then copying the app's data over any default data created during the install.

To make things even more complicated, there's the "factory reset" option. With the stock recovery this means wipe (format) everything and restore the device to what came from the factory (using data stored on the device in a special bit of memory that never changes.) But most custom recoveries do something a bit different. The "memory" for your device (the /sdcard or /storage/emulated/0 area) is on the same partition as your apps (the /data partition) and most recoveries offer a way to clear /data (and the place on /sdcard where the system stores info) without effecting /sdcard. This is what you want when changing Android versions or from one custom ROM to another.

Sometimes you can get away with using your old apps with a new ROM. This is what someone means when you see mention of a dirty flash. If its a custom ROM built on the same Android version as the last version this is usually safe. In this case you either don't even wipe the data partition or restore it from a nand backup.

I personally might try a dirty flash if going from say stock 4.2.2 to stock 4.3 but I'd have that TiBu handy and at the first sign of system instability or boot loop I'd reflash everything but make sure to wipe data.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] princem131:
Flashed and up and running! Seems snappier (hopefully this remains the case once all my stuff is loaded back on) Thanks a lot for the zip.... word of advice, start at the OP and read the entire thread. Its not that long and all instructions, work arounds and fixes are discussed multiple times. I've been rooting and flashing a while now and still know nothing lol. I often have to ask questions, but I almost always, especially when in doubt (not as comfortable with my N7 as I am with my GS3 and former phones) read the OP and usually a good chunk of the thread. That way I can see what problems to expect and how to resolve them. Reading and Google searching are your friends. Not reading and asking questions that have been asked multiple times make it more annoying for those who are reading. This is especially easy in a short thread like this. Just my .02 but has worked well for me. When I do have to ask questions I've typically gotten friendly and prompt answers because the info I'm requesting hasn't been discussed 5 times one page back in the thread.... Happy flashing ;)

No SU binary installed

Hi --

I followed all directions, flashed the combined ZIP from the OP using CWM. I did a full wipe first, and I also formatted /system for good measure.

After I do and I go through first run setup, SuperUser won't work. When you run the app, it gives the error:

There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!

Following the original post by ChainFire of installing his 1.41 ZIP via CWM did not solve this problem.

Anyone else getting this? Ideas of how to fix and get SU binary in the right place?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] kevin0164:
I have the same problem as well !!

I've wiped everything, including even system/, is there any solution so far ??
[Nexus 7 Android Development] scoopman:
nevermind, I didn't follow the detail that I had to say "NO" in CWM to the disable recovery flash before rebooting. OP might want to add this to the first post so that others don't do this and select "YES" in CWM when rebooting after flashing.

Even reading through the thread can be confusing because there is one post that says to say "NO" (which I did and it flashed with no problem SU working fine), but then there's another post that seems like it is saying to select "YES" I could be misreading the second post idk. Either way more reason to clarify in the OP to avoid problems...
