[Nexus 7 General] Oscar-Mark:
Could anyone help me.

I'm currently on Paranoid Android, with Franco kernel, but I would like to upgrade to 4.3. Will I have to return to stock 4.2 to update with the OTA, or can I just update when I get it.
[Nexus 7 General] Ohgami_Ichiro:
You will need to go back to stock 4.2.2

I have Paranoid Android on M Kernel and am looking to go back to stock to take 4.3. What is the fastest/easiest way to do this?

Thanks guys!
[Nexus 7 General] R.Suave:
It seems like the names have changed (very wierd). Nexus 7 wifi was "Grouper" and now is "Nakasi"
[Nexus 7 General] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Occam is Mako backwards

No Grouper ?????

Hi

please someone upload factory image of 4.3 for nexus.7 wifi (nakasi) to another server: github or ...

thnx

:good:
[Nexus 7 General] lupin_iii:
They have used these names for a while. I could be wrong, but I'm guessing Grouper is the Nexus 7 hardware name, and Nakasi is the specific android image for Grouper

[Nexus 7 General] shaunnicho:
Typical... I let my son take the laptop while he's visiting his Nana for the week. Anyone know a way to get 4.3 without a pc?
[Nexus 7 General] Flyingdutchman99:
how do you install it?
[Nexus 7 General] x102x96x:
Flashing by nexus root toolkit

or in recovery or multiROM

all tutorials available, just search ;)

:good:
[Nexus 7 General] Kenzneth:
will it clear the data?
[Nexus 7 General] brizey:
Or just wait a few hours for a recovery flashable zip.
[Nexus 7 General] :
if u r completely stock just flash it and it will behave like normal updating

but if u r root and unlock boot-loader u can use some tools like MultiROM to install it as second Android OS (but it will be clear as u know it s factory image)

:good:

[Nexus 7 General] HAK Devil:
Just installed it now through adb and fastboot. Running quite well and seems that little bit snappier as well (though that might just be the fresh wipe talking). Either way, it is now all set to sell for the new Nexus 7 haha

Mine doesn't want to power on after the flash... Oh my god ... I bricked it? Any help?
[Nexus 7 General] qaz2453:
can i use a stock rooted 4.2.2?
[Nexus 7 General] blackhand1001:
Just flash a custom recovery and flash su. Boot loaders unlocked. The methods from 4.2 still work.
[Nexus 7 General] Ohgami_Ichiro:
Yes. Install OTA Root keeper and you should be fine. Make sure it's an Odexed rom too.
[Nexus 7 General] nicknowsky:
it installed flawlessly thru Nexus Toolkit....just download the 4.3 from google place in folder of FACTORY_IMAGE_HERE....proceed to flash stock rom option in menu

i hadnt used my N7 in months and i had Ubuntu left installed on it so I went directly to 4.3...im trying everything to use the 4.2 methods to root but no luck...did get TWRP installed
[Nexus 7 General] r-l:
edit never mind .. it worked (finally) think i was to long on custom roms that i forgot how to flash a stockrom :P
[Nexus 7 General] jnapp18:
For anybody who cannot boot after flashing...

You probably accidentally downloaded the 3G 4.3 image instead of the wifi model's image... I did this on accident and once you flash the other one you will be ok again.

so tried flashing via nexus root toolkit and now my nexus 7 wont boot. just says booting failed with a big start icon...need help or is my device dead ...nexus 7 was stock before trying to flash 4.3
[Nexus 7 General] zamuz27:
Does flashing with the toolkit also wipe your device? I have multiple users set up and it'd be a pain to do it all over again.

[Nexus 7 General] sebr:
Update Notification should appear but when you try to install it you will receive errors. Wait for a .zip that you can flash from custom recovery. Also install OTA Rootkeeper. That is how the last update worked for me (also stock ROM, rooted and custom recovery).
[Nexus 7 General] LaKraven:
I've just flashed the ROM using ADB and Fastboot (easy enough) and rooted it using the Chainfire method and Sideload.

Yes, it does erase EVERYTHING (it flashes its own Userdata partition, so anything you had on the device will be gone).

So far, it certainly appears to be noticably quicker, and there are some pretty nice features.

I'm about to do my big test, however, and see if they've finally fixed the huge VPN bug in this update (bug is: connect to VPN, device will hard reboot within a minute or two)
[Nexus 7 General] dalanik:
And would this work if I fiddled with the ROM? It is stock, I just updated some apps to ROM (gmail, maps, etc)
[Nexus 7 General] LaKraven:
Update to my previous post:

1) This update does not fix the constant WiFi drop issue (where it continues to show as connected, but no longer recieves packets from the network)

2) This update does not fix the jaw-droppingly crap VPN bug

Bottom line: this update is crap!

[Nexus 7 General] qaz2453:
as long as 4.3 has better performance than 4.2.2 .... im happy :)
[Nexus 7 General] mgleed:
No joy. Holding the power button for any length of time or with any combination of volume buttons doesn't power it back on. Not sure how a failed update could so thoroughly brick it.
[Nexus 7 General] LaKraven:
My router's just fine (as all of my other Android devices can atest)... Google just f**ked up the firmware, and has ignored the hundreds of thousands of people who've repeatedly complained about this issue (both on the Nexus 7 and the Nexus 4).

Some routers are fine... but many others (including the higher-end business/enterprise routers and access points such as those I use here at my company) the Nexus firmware simply does not like.

I'm not going to spend a fool's fortune replacing all my company's networking hardware, far cheaper to destroy all the Nexus 7's I've outfitted my employees with and replace them with a device that works properly. Perhaps leave Android entirely.
[Nexus 7 General] mgleed:
I tried to use the toolkit to flash 4.3 and it failed complaining of missing the system.img file so I guess its possible. Is there a way to recover from that if the N7 won't even power on?

So has anyone actually updated from 4.2.2 to 4.3 via OTA? Or has it been through the toolkit or fastboot?

Sent from my GT-I9505
[Nexus 7 General] Remcotjuuh:
People, please do not use toolkits to flash 4.3. Use fastboot instead; it's still easy enough. This is how I flashed it WITHOUT formatting the internal SD (you do need a custom recovery; I used CWM 6.0.2.3)

Extract the factory image and move the bootloader, system and kernel .imgs to your folder with the fastboot files and then:

Fastboot devices

Fastboot flash bootloader [full name of bootloader file]

Fastboot reboot-bootloader

Fastboot flash system system.img

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Fastboot reboot-bootloader

Enter recovery mode

Wipe data

Reboot

???

Profit!

I'm not even sure if the factory reset is necessary when coming from stock, but you can better be safe than sorry.
[Nexus 7 General] qaz2453:
are you 100% sure that this wont erase my SD card?
[Nexus 7 General] Remcotjuuh:
I think this proves it. CWM doesn't wipe the internal SD card, stock recovery does!
[Nexus 7 General] tomh1979:
i had no issue what so ever using tool kit, worked flawless. :good:
[Nexus 7 General] Remcotjuuh:
I read that someone bricked his tablet using it, but there are multiple toolkits around using different methods. I still like fastboot better since you really understand the process then.
[Nexus 7 General] AnticsTheHanyou:
I haven't tested the 4.3 update yet on mine as I'm waiting to see what customs might be coming out, but I've never had any of these issues. At my home I run a Meraki access point which is authenticated via certificates/RADIUS/Active Directory, which about as enterprise as enterprise gets and I never have any WiFi drop outs whether I'm on standard WPA2-PSK or my LDAP auth. I also work at Microsoft in Redmond and have never had any drop-outs or false connections while connected to my work's WiFi.

As for the VPN, I use PPTP and IPSEC all the time on my Nexus 7 without issues, the one at my home even connects to my dad's place so there are multiple static routes the tablet has to follow, adding even more complexity.

It more so sounds to me like you have a buggy tablet rather than firmware since I've never had either of the issues you mentioned on 4.2, regardless of it being a stock or custom ROM.
[Nexus 7 General] Bl4ckX:
Omg I just really turned my N7 back to stock just to get this update :D

Performance is really good I have to say.
[Nexus 7 General] LaKraven:
One of my employees is telling me that the Nexus 7 they bought in the US (the original 8GB WiFi model) works just fine on all our networks (though he hasn't tested VPN on it yet) while all the ones I bought for my company here in the UK directly from Google don't work at all on

any

network.

It's not my network infrastructure that's at fault, it's Google's Nexus 7... and since the fault started only after we went to 4.2.1 (and continued in 4.2.2 and now in 4.3), that clearly indicates the firmware is at fault.

I'm going to prove it once and for all by taking one of them back to before 4.2.1!
[Nexus 7 General] nethervor:
I performed a clean install of 4.3 following this guide >> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1907796

Naturally I changed the command for flashing the bootloader to 4.23 and changed the name of the zip image.

[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
How long did flashing system take for you? I waited 20 minutes, figured the USB cable was bunk, changed to another one, and it's been another 5 minutes. Beginning to get a tad paranoid. Heh.

EDIT: Another cable! And then it worked. Gah.

Interesting, there's no /system/recovery-from-boot.p script that we've always had that restores stock recovery. I wonder if there's a different mechanism now? Nope, TWRP is still installed, so that's good.

Booted into TWRP, reflashed the supersu zip, rooted, back to normal. Nope, I can't get root back, even with Chainfire's latest 4.3 root zip. Meh.

Okay, I flashed the zip once or twice more, rebooted a few times, now it works. Weird.

[Nexus 7 General] jellymelly:
I showed a few of my friends how to receive the OTA, and we found out that those who didn't work was because they did not have a PURE nexus warrior soul. But don't worry, for I am the NEXUS WARRIOR (see my signature) and i know a quick way to LORD DUARTE's heart - all you need to do is offer to LORD DUARTE a token to symbolism your coming of HOLOHOOD:

take out an old Apple product from your cupboard of prehistoric technology, lay it on the ground face down before the nexus device, then kneel and close your eyes, concentrating on the immaculate face of Lord Duarte while rocking your body back and forth. Keep rocking for 430 minutes and when complete, the OTA notification should immediately popup on your NEXUS device. Good luck, young warrior, may the HOLOSWAG be with you.
