Thanks for this walkthrough! Helped a lot with all the crazy information going around.
Thank you very much for this guide, I followed it and rooted my n7 running 4.2.2 it was a lot easier then rooting my s3 and installing cm10.1, now its time to go check out what custom roms I can install....
i did it! It was so simple. I always get nervous when I'm rooting or jailbreaking devices.
Thank you for this, from the geezer! I am now rooted! :)
Thanks for this fantastic helpful tutorial. Great video don't give up!
i just bought an nexus 7 32 gig at my local office depot for the same price as the 16 gig I'm excited just rooted it
I'm also getting a nexus 7, i would wait till after the 29th of October though. 32GB nexus 7's are being released for the same price as the 16gb.
I've done it. I worked perfectly! Thanx!
thanks mate! now my N7 is now rooted like my NS4G :D
yes, you can connect a micro usb to usb connector and plug your flash drive / hdd to it
u need to download stickmount from the play store tho.
thnx im kinda new this will be my firts android device
thanks ,found some that are less then 1$ id love to hook them up with my HD when i get my nexus
You can do that without rooting the device, just get Nexus Media Importer from the Play Store. PS, External HDD have to be self powered.
Good job bricking it. :]
No. You can't run windows on an Android device. You can flash different things called ROMs and different kernels. But not completely different operating systems apart from maybe Ubuntu because they're running the same basic Linux kernel.
So... If i unlock and root my device, I will be able to connect flash drives, external hdd and stuff like that?
Awesome! super easy to do also!!!!
im looking to buy a nexus 7. what does the unlock and rooting mean?
I'm still having trouble rooting my tablet. I unlocked the bootloader with no problem at all. have all the right drivers and I'm using toolkit version 1.5.2 and my build number is JR003D. every time I have tried to root it, it never finishes rooting it. I have waited up to 30 minutes for it to root and nothing. I have also reboot it manually and the only thing it installed was busybox. do you have any clue as to why this happened and how to fix this issue?
Hi,do you know what the best way to setup now?
Will I be able to find any Adhoc Wifi N/W from my Nexus tab after Rooting it like this..?
Any help is appreciated :)
Help! I do the auto driver thing and it says im good to go. Then i unlocked it and it also said to continue with the root. But when i tried to root it just says fastboot device not found. HELp
