Another inquiry... I manually updated to KitKat and every sign points to my success (icons have changed, settings have changed, notification bar has changed, version has changed to 4.4), but I'm a little confused. I understand that the Nexus 7 wasn't intended to get the Google Experience Launcher, but does this also mean the app drawer icon and recent apps page haven't changed either? I am a little alarmed, so if somebody could confirm with me, that'd be great!

Hey guys.. Nexus 10 user here and need a favor. We just got out link to the OTA

Do you guys have this bug? It's been confirmed on the Nexus 10 by everyone who has got it so far and it's in the Framework and not the Launcher (does it on Nova also)

Default launcher

Long press an icon a "FLICK" it up off the screen to remove it

X Remove stays there and the Google Search bar doesn't move back

[App drawer to reset homescreen]

Press Home

X Remove is now overlayed on the Search

Long press an icon and "DRAG" it to the remove area instead

X Remove goes away on its own and the Google Search returns

I need help from experts, my first day with Nexus 7, it came running JSS15Q. I wanted to upgrade to KitKat.

After a lot of reading, and due to my lack of experience with adb and stuff, I was able to use Nexus Root Toolkit to sideload JSS15R, then I side loaded KRT16O successfully.

Now I want to root, preferably using the NRT, so I tried doing that but I have the following questions before I proceed:

- NRT tells me I have to unlock first, do I have to?

- Can NRT deal with kitkat? I mean in unlocking and using it's root and custom recovery option?

I need your support to root my device easily, I am used to CWM and TWRP on my Samsung phones.

I never have an issue with the smart wake feature as long as I leave wifi on the default value and don't lose wifi signal.

When I have the issue with not waking up (it always turns off correctly) is if I leave the house and there is no Access Point or I tell wifi to disable itself whenever in standby.

For the first month I didn't even notice the issue because I didn't take the tablet out and left wifi on the default value.

Anyway, it is a known issue that Paul from Google said the engineers were able to reproduce and there are various threads about other people experiencing the same, this is one of the newer ones:

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sfhub:
I don't know if it is "working" but someone mentioned earlier you need to have NFC turned on to get Tap & Pay to show up.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sfhub:
Yes, there are new sounds for taps, keyboard presses, closing the cover, turning on. They don't sound as good to me and it sounds like there is some static at the end of the sounds, kind of like mixing in an audio line with the levels not properly balanced.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] thetechaddict10:
I did see that. I keep NFC on, so the "Tap and Pay" menu showed up immediately in settings, but I tapped on it and I was shown a link to "Learn More" instead of being shown any settings. I have Google Wallet installed, but I was not prompted to use it as my default Tap and Pay app like I should've been. In fact, I toggled NFC off and back on again to see if that would cause it to kick in, but to no avail.

EDIT: In Settings > About in Google Wallet, Tap and Pay is still listed as "Not Available."
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sfhub:
I don't use NRT, but you do need to unlock to root.

Unlock will allow you to boot/flash unsigned recoveries. For security reasons, unlocking will force a wipe of your user data, so many folks here do the unlock right away even if they won't need it until later.

Once you can boot unsigned recoveries, you can boot TWRP or CWM and install the update.zip to add root capabilities.

The rooting process is the same for 4.3 and 4.4 so most likely NRT will handle it fine.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sfhub:
Does Tap & Pay require the same module that Wallet requires? I read early on we have NFC but not the module needed to support wallet.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ruggie0:
YES YOU NEED TO BE UNLOCKED TO ROOT. NRT was able to root and flash TWRP successfully, but you need to tweak a setting for it to work right until Wug officially lists KRT16O as a stock ROM.

- Under "Your model type:" click the "Change" button

- Select "Nexus 7 v2 (Wi-Fi Tablet)" as your device

- Select "Custom ROM - JB" as your Android build. (I know it's not Jelly Bean, but it worked for me).

Now, when I reverted to stock JB, I was already unlocked and left it that way when I sideloaded Kit Kat. I can only assume unlocking through NRT with the setting I mentioned above MAY work. Try it and see. Worst that can happen is you simply just need to reflash stock Jelly Bean.

But I can definitely vouch that you can use NRT to root and install a custom recovery with stock Kit Kat installed using the settings I mentioned.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] thetechaddict10:
Yes, because Tap & Pay runs through Wallet. That said, however, "New NFC Capabilities" at http://developer.android.com/about/versions/kitkat.html states "With [NFC] Host Card Emulation, any app on an Android device can emulate an NFC smart card, letting users tap to initiate transactions with an app of their choice — no provisioned secure element (SE) in the device is needed." The reason Wallet NFC payment didn't work was due to the lack of a secure element in the new Nexus 7. According to the new KitKat developer page, Wallet NFC payment should now be supported.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ruggie0:
My understanding is that under Tap & Pay, it will list the apps that support it.

Unfortunately, Wallet isn't showing up in the list. Even after I uninstalled and reinstalled wallet. :/
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] The Gingerbread Man:
Thanks I'll try this. Mine is complaining about not enough free space in system and cache when I try to use recovery or adb side load. I manually unrooted before trying to update and was really at wits end trying to work out why it wouldn't apply the update as everything else was set to fully stock in preparation for ota. I even reflashed my system earlier with fast boot. My current /system folder is showing as only 235.46mb free and /cache only 27.36mb. The update file is 242.52mb. What's happened to all my space on system? 16gb WiFi model and 4.53gb free space on /storage

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sladflob:
You probably didn't have wifi set to be disabled when the table was asleep. I have a Portenzo case too and this bug used to drive me mad. I can confirm that it's fixed in Kit Kat and I'm very happy.

Saw your screenshots. That's NFC. it's not Wifi and your tethering is not enabled. Not sure what you're referring to.

Could you keep a logcat window open and try it? You won't see the crash otherwise, its totally silent, only reason I caught it was checking in adb. Also may need another device with NFC to initiate the crashing, not sure if it happens otherwise, but I believe it does.

OK weird issue with missing data

I manually updated from AOKP 4.3 ROM. Went back to stock JSS15R, then upgraded from their via ADB and then flashed SuperSU. Now, all my data is not there. It shows in storage that it is still in the memory as there is 11GB used and 10GB free after only installing 2 apps from Google Play. I've used ES File explorer with root to drive down to base folder, and have gone through every folder but it seems that it isn't there! Titanium Backup searched the whole device and didn't find the backups. Literally all the data is still on the SD card, but I can't find it or access it. Any ideas?

I'm thinking about utilising Google drive for more uses such as storing my music etc.

I know I can do this but is it easily listened to if I do?

Also can I put app data on drive and still use games, eg if I have ff3 and the app is installed to my phone, could I then move the data folder into drive and it would still work?

Cheers
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tripleboolean:
I would think of Google Drive as more of a 'online locker' rather than an extended memory card.

While you can store music on it and access it via your phone, you'll find it much easier to have your music directly on your phone.

If you want your music to be stored online, look more into Google Play. It'll host your music online and you can listen your songs with the stock Play Music app on the Nexus 5 as long as your signed into the Google account it's connected to.

More info here: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/1075570?hl=en

As for games, I don't believe Google Drive will allow you to play games with data files stored onto it. It'd be a very risky move even if you could! You'd need an extremely reliable connection or you could corrupt data.

Hi guys, I couldnt find the solution to this in the forums so I thought I would contribute my own.

A few moments ago I ran a rom upgrade to to get rid of the O2 rubbish in an effort to fix my TT5 SatNav/Phone problems. However, half way through, my computer crashed. I soon discoverd that the pda was dead (would not load past the O2 screen even after a hard reset) and ActiveSync couldnt see a connection to re-run the upgrade again. :shock:

Solution:

1) Hard reset the pda with the addition of also pressing the navigation key. The PDA screen will go black and say 'Serial'.

2) Run the upgrade software again for whichever rom you choose.

Sorted!!! :D
