[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thouston472:
an update to say thank you and add a bit of info for anyone else who may be new like myself.

didnt get the time to try this yesterday, but i did give it a go first thing this morning.

went smoothly except stuck @ slimkat load screen

did a bit of digging in the slimkat thread/site and found the following:

In recovery make a full wipe as per these instructions:

In TWRP choose advanced in wipe section and wipe dalvik cache, cache, system and data.

*i had failed to wipe because i didnt have anything of importance to backup*

so i went back into recovery

wipe>advanced wipe selected dalvik cache, cache, system and data,

swiped to start, allowed it to finish

while still in the recovery

advanced>adb sideload

swipe to start

from the pc

adb sideload rom.zip

after completed had a reboot button, did not reboot yet,

still in the recovery

home>advanced>adb sideload and swipe to start

from the pc

adb sideload gapps.zip

after completion, did a reboot to a new setup :)

again, many thanks, to all who helped

Hi,

Sorry for taking so long to answer! Life has been rushing for me! I don't really know how to do it with Windows, but I do know in Fedora and Ubuntu. Although, I thought a little deeper in your issue for the week and unfortunately it looks like a broken EMMC, and formatting won't solve it... However you can try it, but if you are using one of the Linux distros I mentioned then I can try helping you better.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unitnerd:
First of all Thank You soo much for your response.How about i emulate a linux distro on windows? Because i made a lot of changes to do a dualboot thing on windows 8 and 7 so installing a linux distro will mess it up. And the reason i think that the EMMC is not broken is because i can install apps through adb(not only as a system app but a normal user app as well). Is there any way to repartition or something? And the time of your response is not a big issue as ive been using my tablet less lately ever since i bought my Note 3 :cool:
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
First steps should be to make a nandroid backup in recovery and also separately backup anything like pics from data to PC, then gooogle search android factory images and find the latest for the manta

Then wipe all with fastboot and flash all again (check out post two or three of this thread for details)

If this doesn't work post a copy of all input/output from cmd along with what happened

Hi! I'm also pretty new to using a Nexus 10 and I had questions. (Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong in any of the following. When answering, use the least amount of abbreviations possible as i might not know what they mean and it saves me from having to ask lol)

The advantage of google devices is the instant updates and no garbage added into the OS by the service providers (mostly pure android). I've recently gotten googles update to 4.4.2 and it has negatively affected my wifi capabilities; internet drops a couple times per minute, takes forever to load anything, playstore never loads, nor does youtube, signal strength low. After doing some research i found out a lot of other people have been having this issue. One guy reverted back to a previous OS, he went back to 4.2.2. I would like to do the same thing since my tablet is new and i'm really not enjoying it right now.

The problem i've been hearing from some friends is that in order to flash a ROM, the tablet needs to be rooted, and to root a nexus means to void the prioritary updates given by google (am i wrong?). i'm afraid to lose that privilege in case it is true so i'm avoiding rooting. So how can i go back to 4.2.2 without rooting?

I've already downloaded the image file from google, now i just need to put it on. My friends were saying this can be done without rooting if i used Odin, but i don't think it's compatible with the nexus because i found no DIY with it. I've only been reading about fastboot and ADB which seem scary and are unknown to me lol. I might've bricked and soft-bricked phones before playing around with Galaxies, and am weary about software i don't quite understand.

Help me understand my options!

Thanks a million

Hi,

First of all, there's no need to root to restore an Android version, although you'll need to unlock your bootloader, which means you'll lose all your data. When rooted you'll still receive Android updates, although every time you update your tablet, you'll lose your root access, and then you'll have to root again.

I never used Odin with Nexus 10, nor I saw other people using... I prefer the convenience of using fastboot! [MENTION=4334383]demkantor[/MENTION] wrote a great guide regarding restoring to stock, you may wish to read this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50823261&postcount=3. With this guide you will be able to restore your Nexus 10 back to 4.2.2 ;).

Also, if you want to lock your bootloader after downgrading (keep in mind you have to be completely stock! And it'll also delete all your data), just type in the end:

fastboot oem lock

Hope this helps,

Hi, I'm facing problem to connect my Nexus 10 to my Windows 8 laptop. What I had done is installed Android SDK tools, installed Google USB driver, then manually update the Android ADB USB driver. But in "my computer" in the laptop, no folder / driver appear no matter I choose MTP or PTP.

I also try other method, i.e. install wifi file transfer (http / ftp) also didn't work. My Internet browser (http) and windows file explorer (ftp) unable to detect my nexus 10 address although both using same wireless wifi.

FYI, my Nexus 10 is rooted, installed TWRP recovery and on stock ROM. Hope someone can help. Thank you.

Think I may have gotten a machine with a dud battery :(

When i first got it it was at 100% and stayed at 100% for over an hour even with me flashing custom ROMS to decide on one I wanted. stuck with PA in the end and started setting it up it finally started to drop and when it hit 70% it switched off and wouldn't switch back on.

It's on the charger now but charging very very slowly (which I heard it does?) guess the only way to make sure I have a dud battery is to keep trying it?

Maybe a dumb question but it's been frustrating me for a while now:

Is there a way to force the YouTube app to play HD? I know on the phone app there is that option to force hq on mobile, but it's not there on the tablet version and I feel like I'm constantly having to toggle the HD switch. Well, at least anytime I reboot or the app closes.

I don't why it doesn't just default to HD, the device is gonna be on wifi 100% of the time anyway.

Upgrading to 4.4 Questions

I bought my 10 on Swappa about a year ago. I know it is rooted and has a custom package/kernel, but I don't know what it is. This is my first Android, so I'm not all that familiar with the technology and terminolgy, but learning.

So, about 8 months ago I got a notification for a System Update Download, apparently from Google. It is the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean System Update. However, if I go into the About Tablet in Settings, it shows I already have v4.3.

Kernel version: 3.4.39-g7d757d

morfic@othris #666

Build number

JWR66V

I have not gotten any notices to update to Kitkat, presumably because it thinks I don't have 4.3 installed yet.

So I want to upgrade to the most current version, keep my root and package, but not sure what to do next? Download KitKat and go with that or do I need to do the 4.3 download I have received?

What do I need to do to keep the current root and system?

I will update this post with logcat as soon as I get home. No Wifi here to load onto the Nexus 10.

Any help/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Im wanting to learn more about the Tablet....I love it!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
If you want the latest stock and rooted check out post three in this thread. Pretty much boot to recovery and make a backup of current ROM and for good measure save it to computer.

Backup any apps and data if you want with something like titanium backup or use adb backup (also nice to store on PC)

Then you can download latest factory image (there is a link in post three that brings you to images for all nexus devices)

Then what I would do is

Boot to fastboot and wipe everything

Flash all stock with fastboot

flash an updated custom recovery (latest twrp) with fastboot

Boot to new recovery

Hit reboot from there and will offer to root your device (accept this)

Now set up tablet

Restore what you wish from backup

Complete stock ROM as flashable zip?

When I got my Nexus 10, I quickly installed CWM and rooted it. Then I used the root privileges to remove a lot of google's standard crap apps that I don't need (e.g. gmail). That means that OTA updates fail (CWM says something about some file/directory missing). - At least that's my best guess as those removals were pretty much the only thing I had done before the first OTA became available.

So I guess I need a complete ROM, isn't it possible to find a stock ROM anywhere? (It would be fine if it was rooted, had busybox and the Xposed framework, but apart from that I prefer stock.)

For my Nexus 5 (and the Galaxy Nexus I had before that), it has been simple to find ones on this forum, but I can't find one for the Nexus 10?

Do I have to go through the long procedure referenced a couple of times in the thread to go completely stock? If so could I at least skip flashing the stock recovery, as I'd like to keep CWM?

.Henrik
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Yeah just a quick digging through the forum didn't yield me a pure stock flashable of 4.4.4 but I found this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2529492

Rooted stock with just transparent navbar, both odexed and deodexed version available in flashable zips.

Otherwise slimkat is also very much stock with very few additions but mostly just removals - actually I don't like to recommend ROMs but it is the one I use most often on all my devices.

But to answer your other question, you do not need to flash the stock recovery. I only update my n10 once a month or every other as its mostly the wife's.

Check for updated twrp, if there is I flash it with fastboot

Then make a nandroid and save to PC, along with an adb backup

I download the fully factory firmware, check to see if bootloader has been updated, if there is I do a full wipe of device and flash the bootloader (the. The recovery after) if not all I do is a simple wipe in recovery and then flash the latest slim ROM

But if you want stock just all you do is flash the system.img and then root it and you should be good.

bootloop until restore to factory defaults after unlock

With my Nexus 10 stock KitKat 4.4.4 following the instructions and successfully unlocked the devices a permanent bootloop appears (4 color cicle animation forever and device is being reported as "ID 18d1:4ee1 Google Inc. Nexus 4 / 10" with Linux).

There is no way I found to access the device with adb anymore. From bootloader you can install TWRP with fastboot, but that's it. Only restoring to factory default let me access the device on normal user level (with UI).

Any ideas or similar experience?

p.s.: Even trying to reflash with adb sideload the latest stock OS fails with some error messages about problems to mount cache.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Hi,

First download the latest image from android source (link in the second or third post)

Boot to bootloader and run this

fastboot erase system -w

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase recovery

Now run this from the location of the unzipped image files from android sources

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

Now from the latest twrp image

fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Now scroll to recovery, should boot to twrp, once in twrp choose reboot system, should get a message about no root and ask if you want su flashed, choose yes

Upon reboot you will have rooted stock ROM!

Let me know if you get stuck!

Hi,

got it working by

- first downloading SU-archive to internal memory and

- then unlock,

- boot TWRP,

- install SU from archive on internal memory via TWRP and

- then normal boot succeeded.

The problem was/is that once I unlocked the device there was no chance to install SU and it seems to boot the unlocked device (even locking the device again didn't help) does not work without SU being installed for whatever reason on my target. :confused:

Hi,

Sorry, but until now no one tried repartitioning as it takes too many risks. I believe you can ask to guys from Xoom forum how they did and try checking if it's possible on Nexus, just don't do the exact same procedure, you'll need to get the idea only. They did it recently.

Also, keep in mind that some guys faced dead eMMC problem, which stopped writing, but was able to read, if that's the same issue as your, I'm sorry but the only fix is changing it.

Hello guys, am new here and i hope someone could help me.

I wanted to root my nexus 10 so i could change android to 4.4.2. in order to watch 1080p on youtube.

Unfortunately I didn't set enable USB Debugging and I just go into fastboot and I unlocked bootloader.

After that when i tried to root I got a bootloop and now i can only turn on bootloaer.

I tried recovery mode but I got a message "Downloading... do not turn off target !!

I also installed Nexus Root Tookit on my pc, and connected nexus to pc and I tried but i get message

"ADB device was not found In order for this to work: USB debugging needs to be enabled on your device."

So what i need now is factory reset or any idea how to make it work.

Hi,

Skip the root kit, will cause you more problems than worth

From bootloader flash a custom recovery

fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

Then boot to new recovery and adb sideload your ROM of choice
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slx011:
Thanks for quick response

Do i need to root device before flashing custom recovery couse i only have few option in the boot loader:

"Start" , "Restart Bootloader", "Recovery mode" (which is not working) and "Power off"

Thats all my options.

Anyway if i press volume up and power button I get a message Downloading.., do not turn off target!!

No need to root, the reason for download mode is I'm assuming recovery was accidentally erased.

Status 7 error while installing kernel...

Hi, guys! Hope you can help a newbie here... I had my N10 for over a year now. Never had the need to do much experimenting or changes, other than installing CyanogenMod.

Before my Nexus 10, I had a generic chinese tablet with Android 2.2.1, with which I could access my network shares without any problem... With Android 4.3 now I cannot access those files. I read somewhere (hxxp://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45643435) that it was possible to mount a network share using a combination of CyanogenMod + Trinity Kernel, so I grabbed Trinity kernel for Android 4.3 from here: hxxp://derkernel.com/jb-manta.php.

So,

here's the problem

... When I try to install the Trinity kernel I get the following error message:

set_perm: some changes failed
E:Error in /data/media/0/Download/TX17-4.3-2000-ANY.zip

Installation aborted.

Here's some additional info about my N10 that could be useful:

Nexus 10 (Rooted)

Android 4.3.1

CyanogenMod 10.2.1-manta

Kernel version 3.4.39-g3027e99

ClockworkMod v6.0.4.7
