2013 Nexus7, 16GB WiFi Edition

This is a full fledge Ubuntu Linux distro for the Nexus7 Tablet.

I've discovered the following:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7

I've installed Ubuntu Linux 13.04 on my 2013 WiFi Nexus7 16GB.

So far, seems to work fairly well. Even the onscreen keyboard.

The Nexus7 Boot Image and System Userspace Image can be found at:

http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/13.04/release/

After installing the automated installer on your Ubuntu Linux computer:

1. Add the attached modified checksum file to your /Downloads/UbuntuNexus7 folder

2. Replace installer script at /usr/bin with attached modified installer script

3. Be sure to remove the .txt from the attached files.

Everything will install smoothly from that point onward.
[Nexus 7 General] astrocrep:
Awesome!! Going to try this tonight. Thanks!

Edit Installed it this morning! Works ok... wants me to do a distro updae to 13.10 which I thought was weird since there is no 13.10 installation media! Anyway, letting it update now and will report back!

[Nexus 7 General] Longi94:
I know, but you wrote 2013 Nexus7 16gb, which is confusing ;P
[Nexus 7 General] chand9336:

You did. Please fix it, because it is confusing.

It's the 2012 model type built in February of 2013 and sold in August of 2013.
[Nexus 7 General] droe6:
...Right. So has anyone confirmed this for the 2nd gen Nexus 7? I'm in the process of trying to get this working myself. But I have a feeling the same issues that prevent us from using ubuntu touch on the 2nd gen will prevent this as well.

Did everyone have tried to install GNOME shell instead of unity window manager ?

For me it didn't work :'(
[Nexus 7 General] rebel1699:
Guys, there is already a very long thread devoted to ubuntu desktop on the 2012 Nexus 7. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33313017 Please post there. Not to mention, it has been being used for well over a year. Multirom is also built to install it, without having to sacrifice your internal android rom. It is also noteworthy that the project has been discontinued for quite some time. Dont expect it to advance past its current 13.04 build. They made one 13.10 build, but it was very broken.

As far as anything to do with the Nexus 7 2013, they have thier own forum, and all conversation for that model should be redirected to there.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxForceFive:
So, it seems there's a Nexus 7 software patch/workaround for this TRIM issue with the bad emmc chips.

Is anyone working on this for the Nook HD+ at all?

I ask cos despite CM10.1.3 working really well, I know it will start to lag, & I'll have to regularly wipe & start over to keep it running well.

On top of this I was hoping CM11 (kitkat) would make this device much snappier & improve things all the more.

It has a great price, perfect screen size & form factor for me, if it were safe to update to the latest version of android it would be amazing.

Has anyone (who knows what they're talking about, like verygreen for example) spoken to those who coded the patch for Nexus 7 to see if it's possible to utilise the same patch?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SkyAttacksX:
So I found that my AT&T Galaxy S4 MF3 had an update pending last night and I let it update. When I woke up and continued to the install, it failed at 26% and told me it was unable to install without giving a particular reason. I had it rooted, so what I did is unrooted it and tried again which failed. Then I re-rooted again, deleted busybox, unrooted and tried for the third time. So far I am trying NOT to reset but if I have to for 4.3 then I guess it's necessary. I really have no reason for root anymore so I don't mind losing it for 4.3, but please help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] xuanphucn:

Google has finnally released stock KK images so here you go:

KRT16O MAKO

Flashable ZIP by [MENTION=3569800]Imperticus[/MENTION]

How to flash Kitkat IMAGE:

Download the image

Unpack with 7-zip (recommended)

Make sure you have functional fastboot on your PC

Put your Nexus into fastboot mode

Connect to PC via USB

Click on flash-all.bat if you are running Windows or execute flash-all.sh if you are running Linux

Wait untill installation finishes

How to flash Kitkat ZIP:

Download ZIP and place it in storage

Go to Recovery

Wipe data & cache

Flash zip

Reboot

Screenshots

HERE

Read before doing anything:

I take no credits for this as it's not my work.

I take no responsibility for any damage caused to your device.

No gapps needed, it's stock Kitkat.

It doesn't consist of latest Google Experience Launcher, as only N5 has it by default. Anyways you can install it yourself. (I use Nova Beta)

Flashing stock image will wipe EVERYTHING including storage

Flashable zip is made by [MENTION=3569800]Imperticus[/MENTION] so go to his post and click "THANKS" button as the guy deserves it
[Nexus 4 Android Development] _artem_:
why official factory image includes and flashes bootloader version 20i and radio version .84 (both old from previous factory...) BUT zip contains a txt file with:

where is that 30d bootloader and .97 radio?????

[Nexus 4 Android Development] forever_lol:
It's just a typo! you'll see the right name after flashing them in bootloader.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] yonzz:
Thanks, but i want to ask before apply the update. I'm now in Nexus 5 Kitkat port ROM (Unlocked bootloader and Rooted).

If i flash this, does the "wipe all data" means just like ordinary factory reset (like just wipe app data only)?

or does it means that it wipe all my stuffs in storage (like photos, .obb game data, titanium backup data, whatsapp message backup)?

please tell me which one will happen if i click flash-all.bat. :confused:

Thanks...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] MaxFTW:
It will wipe simply EVERYTHING (but your brain :D)

Sure, using it right now

1.can you start into recovery?

2. if no - what appears????

3. If yes - have you tried to sideload another ROM?

Be more explicit with what exactly is not working, and you'll have your answer in no time :D

Have you read "Read before doing anything" section?

Of course not

Yes, you can use any Kitkat custom kernel like AK for example (but stock one performs quite well, only lack of color calibration option is annoying for me but it will change when Google releases sources)

It's Whatsapp I guess

What do you think? How long has this been available? Geesus give the kernel developers some time! This is a developers site, meaning this shouldn't need to be explained!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] marcusfilipp:
unlocked and updated. :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] YOUCANNOTDENY:
You need to manually create an HSPA+ apn. For my specific carrier (T-Mobile), KitKat came only with the LTE apn, and since I was using the 0.97 radio (no LTE), I couldn't use data.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] geekovary:
Guys, stuck in bootloop!!

I

was on PA 3.99 RC2

, downloaded the zip for Kitkat,

wiped cache and dalvik

.

Flashed the mako zip

, and i am

stuck in a boot loop

with the continuous Kitkat boot animation. Tried to flash the PA3.99 RC2 back, but now it gets stuck on the Google screen while booting. Any solution, so that i can retrieve my data, and boot into the phone again ?

Okay so WIPED THE DATA AND RE_FLASHED THE ZIP. Works fine now. Though a bit laggy, not sure. Cant wait for PA's 4.4 ROM.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] n0thing2bdone:
Great battery life and speed. Needs a couple of restarts and I think it helps to sign in to each Google app once after install, then adjust sync etc if you don't sign in I think they keep cycling
[Nexus 4 Android Development] underskyzx:
All I need is the zip + upcoming radio?? and all installed, nothing missing??

edit: done it the old fastboot way \o/

You have to install Google Experience Launcher or Nova 2.3 Beta

Rooting is easy, you just have to flash for example SuperSU in recovery

Here you go with SuperSU

Haven't tried custom kernel, though I presume AK's kitkat one would work.

Patience bear, still uploading :D
[Nexus 4 Android Development] runderekrun:
Correct me if I am wrong but wouldn't a flashable zip not flash radio?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mosio:
Semaphore 1.7.6j works flawless. Flash dePrimator first.

I switched to ART then back to Dalvik. No go. Do I have to factory reset and reflash the rom ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] XupModz:
I think it is app related not ROM but I may be wrong
[Nexus 4 Android Development] andy_rose:
Yeah, will the flashable zip also install new radio and bootloader?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Imperticus:
Flashable zip is just rom and kernel. Made a separate zip for radio .97 - also uploading. My internet is slow, so bare with me guys.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] XupModz:
Thanks man we can wait well I can anyway :D
[Nexus 4 Android Development] runderekrun:
Awesome dude!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mosio:
You mean that Whatsapp doesnt support KitKat at all ? Not only ART ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] lazer155:
No wipe necessary with the flashable, right? I've sometimes had boot loops going between roms if I don't wipe but I think that's usually because I jump between custom roms. I'm on rooted odexed 4.3 right now with CWM.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jonathan413:
i can be wrong, please correct me if so, but from what ive been seeing, whatsapp doesnt work with ART and even if you switch back from Dalvik itll give you problems. only way to remedy the situation is to flash the rom again. Again thats what ive been told.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] gencka:
No Whatsapp and Titanium work fine in Dalvik. But for the moment they dont work in ART, maybe soon will be updates for this apps to fix this
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Paschalis:
What we need is a CWM version of it, with root! ;)

I don't have a pc now, and I don't want to delete my data!

[Nexus 4 Android Development] mosio:

Another question: Should I bother with lower Antutu score on 4.4 - 16900 than on 4.3 - 21500 ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Serris:
