You're right, but I forgot to reboot after unlocking and re-enable USB debugging. Then my N7 boot looped and I couldn't get any tool kits to work, so the commands I posted are really more for people that can't get their device to boot (or just can't read instructions, like me! Lol).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] stanglifemike:
^^Lol! As long as you got it figured out man, that's what's important! Hopefully no one else will need those commands, but thanks for posting them in case they do!

Everything worked perfectly and was crazy fast and easy. Thanks! I did notice that to get into fastboot, you only need to hold down the volume down and power button, and not the up/down/power like the instructions say.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] stanglifemike:
This is very true! I also noticed that the instructions were wrong, when I was reading through them. A couple times I actually tried what the OP said to do, just in case it was some new method I hadn't heard of, or something specific to Mac

No big deal, but you'll probably want make the corrections in the OP.

Mine is stuck at < waiting for device >.

After a while the Nexus boots up and the script continues to say < waiting for device >.

Any ideas?

I was in fastboot when I started the script.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Airwolf79:
Try it manually. In terminal, navigate to the folder where u put the script, or any folder that has adb and fastboot, make sure it sees ur device (fastboot devices), then type fastboot oem unlock. Reboot, re-enable USB debugging. Then copy the supersu.zip to ur device, reboot to recovery, and flash it.

Worked great! Thank you! The only thing I had to do on my own was drag the SuperSU zip onto my device. For some reason when the toolkit tried to apply it, it would say cannot read device for a moment. Other than that small issue the toolkit was awesome. My first time using a toolkit of any kind so thanks for a great n easy experience.

Today I tried to unroot my nexus 7 with the toolkit but at the sending system I get an error saying that it failed, only thing that worked is to send the stock recovery and the boot loader after it failed any idea why?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] WrightOne86:
Mine successfully installed the unlock bootloader and installed the TWRP recovery.

I am having an issue with installing the Root file though. I am getting the same issue as above, where it says that it does not find the device and does not push the SuperSU .ZIP file to the tablet. I am trying to reboot the tablet and go and make sure the debugging selection is still selected after running the other 2 files, but it is just stuck on the spinning "X" symbol. Is there a way I can push via adb or fastboot from my Mac to get this working properly? How can I start the adb/fastboot programs to manually push the .zip file needed to complete this process?

Edit: I tried flashing the system.img from ATGAdmin, but it is telling me that I have no such file or directory. It worked perfectly for the boot.img and for the recovery.img, but I do not know what happened to the system directory...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Airwolf79:
Are u able to boot ur system?

For some reason, some people are having problems flashing the released factory IMG. PM me if you're still having problems. I helped another member get his working after he had the same problem.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] WrightOne86:
Since the messages appeared to be saying I was missing an system image and it would not go past the initial google splash with the lock at the bottom, I decided to just try to flash CM 10.2 & SuperSU on the tablet. It booted right into the ROM with no issues. I have SuperSU rights and all intact. ROM Manager and Titanium both ran with no issues at all. I am not sure what the hiccup was initially, but luckily after running some adb and fastboot commands, I got it running properly.

Thanks for the help though man!

Ah, OK. Why r u trying to unroot?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] p4rot:
Why?

For the moments theres not much ROMs available for it that I really like , but since it seems impossible to unroot it I will keep root.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Airwolf79:
There's plenty of optimized stock ROMs to choose from if ur not into AOSP, but regardless there's no benefit to unrooting. At least if u keep root, u can run apps that require it, like Titanium Backup. I know there aren't a lot of AOSP ROMs yet, but Slim ROMs, PA, and Carbon are all very good ROMs that are pretty damn stable even though they're still in beta. I'm running Carbon right now, and it has a TON of options. Just my 2¢.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] stanglifemike:
Check out Clean Rom by Scrosler! It's a close to stock experience, just optimized for performance, stability, and battery life. By far the best ROM in my opinion! I use his ROM on my Asus Infinity, and have on previous phones that he's built ROMs for. Started running his ROMS back in the day on my WinMo phones, so he has certainly been doing this for a while!! He's definitely one of the best ROM developers around!!

I used the unroot/stock toolkit and followed all the instructions on the screen but now I'm stuck on a boot loop. The screen doesnt move past the X when booting up. I can still go to boot loader mode but I can't go to Recovery mode.

After it got stuck, I brought it back to boot loader mode and pressed "enter to relock boot loader" as instructed on the screen. Now my boot loader is locked because I can't see the lock sign below where it says Google when booting up. Nonetheless, my device is still not booting up.

What should I do? I want to get this returned and tomorrow is the last day I can. I wanted to go today itself but then this happened.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] foethalove:

So what I did to get out of this fix is find a Windows laptop and use the normal nexus root toolkit. It worked for me and all and I restored it completely back to stock and locked the boot loader and everything but for some reason my tablet wouldn't auto update to 4.4 Kitkat from 4.3. Anyways, best buy didnt mind that and refunded me my money anyways. Hope this helps.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] felgus84:
Hello everyone!

I want to buy a new phone, but I can't decide which one: HTC One or SGS 4 (I9505).

Right now I've got HTC One X, and to be honest I'm not really satisfied with the way it works. I just want to know if HTC fixed all the annoying issues they made with HOX. So let's start:

1. Multitasking. Does it work as it should? Or same as on HOX? It's really annoying, when I move from one app to another, and after few minutes when I want to go back to the previous app it reloads and all my progress is lost.

2. Screen Any brighter/darker points on the screen? Backlight flickering?

3. Speaker volume? Probably it's great, but just wanna be sure :D

4. Build-in connectors Anything similar to the wifi / gps antena connector issue in HOX?

5. Overheating I know that One gets warm, but does it get as hot as HOX was before the Jelly Bean update?

Those are the main issues I've discovered in HOX. I love the HTC One design, but the look is only a small detail, and if I intend to buy it, I must be sure HTC got rid of all the issues they made with HOX.

Also if there are any other problems with HTC One, please write here about them;)

Thanks for your help!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsbeertimenow:
Multitasking - there doesn't seem to be any interruption of during multiple uses of apps everything is paused when left and is the same when you return to it. The only time I have noticed it is the reloading of webpages in the native browser which can be avoided by using chrome.

Screen - it can't get any better atm

Speaker volume - this thing is loud with sterio output using 2 speakers with bass boost.

Build in connectors - null

Overheating - I have yet to see this thing heat up to the point of being hot. However it's factory set to run at 1700 I have not tested above that freq.

Coming from the incs my opinions may be biased but using this phone for over a month and I can't seem to find any faults you just have to make sure you enjoy sense (which doesn't suck the way it did at version 3). I can't find any lag either which is something sense used to provide for free in previous versions.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaMbizard:
I would agree with your answers whole heartedly with the exception being overheating. Particularly whilst streaming HD video content or playing HD games the device does get very hot. Far hotter than any other device I have ever owned. It doesn't impact its performance however there have been a couple of occasions where my One has got so hot I've had to put it down and leave it for a while to cool down as it was too hot to hold.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beci91:
multitasking - sometimes you lose the progress you had in apps, especially if you have a lot of them. If you only have 2-3 apps running, it usually keeps the progress. Swipe away the apps you don't use, and you should have no problems

overheating - I use my phone's navigation a lot. If it is plugged in into a cheap aftermarket car charger, the GPS, mobile data, and the screen is on, it can overheat massively. If you unplug it from the charger, it cools down in a few minutes. I have yet to try an HTC car charger though.

screen - no errors, although the black is not as good as it is on an AMOLED

connection issues - none so far

speaker volume - generally good for a phone, but when more people are talking, it is not too loud. If you use an external speaker, it blows anything away.

also, as a sidenote: if you decide to buy the One, get S-OFF before upgrading to 4.2. If your HBOOT is updated, you cannot get S-OFF.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cevyn:
I recently obtained a Star N9500, which is a Samsung Galaxy 4 clone. It's a very nice piece of hardware, with the exception of the pre-installed spamware apps. I'm going to detail how I discovered which system apps were the culprit so that you can follow a similar procedure on your Chinese Android device.

The symptoms are Chinese language spam notifications that when touched will immediately begin downloading some other app, most often a game or Chinese social networking/dating app. Other times, Chinese apps would just randomly install, or links to other Chinese sites would appear on the home screen. The problem is that there is no obvious app to uninstall to stop this from happening, AdAway doesn't prevent it, and none of the ad network / push detectors or blockers available in the Play Store found anything wrong. These apps are buried in the phone's firmware, and this must be solved with detective work.

The removal process requires your phone to be Rooted.

The first thing that I did was to Google the name of each and every .apk in the /system/apps folder. You'll have to use the Translate feature for most of the results. Only one app I Googled got a hit called “uuplay.apk”. Turns out that this is a known Chinese Adware app. I proceeded to rename it with a “.dis” extension with ES File Explorer and felt I solved the problem...but I didn't.

Sure enough the notification spam continued, so I knew there had to be more. None of the APKs in the system apps folder resulted in any Google hits, so I had to figure this out myself.

I proceeded to use ES File Explorer to copy every file in the “/system/apps” folder to my desktop computer. Next, I used 7-Zip to unzip every APK to my RAMDRive. I started to look at the individual files with Notepad++ but found this quite tedious. Then I realized that Chinese apps probably access Chinese servers with a “.cn” domain.

I fired up Agent Ransack and did a search inside all of the decompressed app files for “.cn”. Sure enough, two hits on “GoogleUpdate[3738].apk” and “GoogleService[3738].apk”. I looked inside the “classes.dex” files and sure enough found links to Chinese sites located at “http://g.10086.cn”. I also found mention of “com.google.system.king”. Ahhhhh that makes sense, because I noticed that the SD Card ended up with a folder of the same name with Chinese looking files inside, such as “hziee”, and also “jrinfo.cfg”.

I Googled the king string and found a Chinese site that described the app as “Android application management, convenient and practical, Fool phone management experts.” Ah-ha!!! So I renamed both of those APKs in the system app folder with a “.dis” extension, rebooted my phone and voila – no more spam :) They didn't fool me, and hopefully this post will help someone else out there with this infestation.

I attached the spamware app APKs from my phone to this thread for additional deconstruction by anyone interested. I'd be curious to know to what extent they would go in downloading spam.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I.nfraR.ed:
Yes, be careful with those Chinese phones.

Some of them has self-register apps that send expensive sms messages to China. Some of them have also apps similar to those you mentioned.

Usually, you can delete the whole /system/vendor/app folder, full of Chinese crap.

Some of the apps are also located in the /system/app folder. Best way for non-experienced users is to search for apps description over the net if you're unsure of what a certain app does.

MTKDroidTools has some predefined apps list and can automatically remove Chinese stuff for you, but still there's a chance some new or differently named app is installed on the phone.

Ofcourse, for any of these manipulations you need root access.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cevyn:
Yeah I can imagine some of them have some nasty stuff loaded in, so definitely a good idea to scrutinize every app for anything suspicious. I think doing what I did above on any Chinese phone to search for any apps with links to .cn based domains isn't a bad idea, even if spamware isn't an issue. I also only use prepaid SIMs in these things for a reason ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cevyn:
UPDATE 08-09-2013:

Quick Fix: If your phone has the same rogue files as mine did, root your phone, and delete the following from /system/apps: UUPLAY.APK, GoogleUpdate[3738].apk, GoogleService[3738].apk, SystemThread[3738].apk, Backup_File[3738].i, projectmkmassags.apk, and smsreg.apk.

shurufa_01.apk

None of those other APKs were present, but a datang_gaohong folder was on my SD card, as well as a folder called LogicDownloads that referenced these types of filenames. I deleted all of them and haven’t had them come back. I deleted a bunch of other non-dangerous bloatware as well. The phone is now about as perfect as I could imagine one being. Battery seems to go forever now as well.
