    I had just one problem while unrooting. When I tried unrooting, it did open up the cmd, everything was going okay until it got stuck on sending system. It sat there for like 3 hours. I disconnected my nexus, I know I shouldn't but I did and tried again. Same problem. It says failed to boot when ever I boot my nexus and sits on sending system. PLEASE HELP ME!

    at the end of the video, you made a nandroid backup using the cwm
    couldnt you have done a full nandroid backup in the beginning at the part when you were in the nexus toolkit part?
    if you could do it there, would you still need to do it in cmw?

    I followed this tutorial, but in the end when I try go access SuperSu I got the following message "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSu cannot install it. This is a problem!.
    If you upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root - consult the relevant forums for your device!"
    When I rooted my nexus 7 I was already on version 4.3 and used nexus tool kit v1.7.2, should I repeat the procedure ?, maybe try diferent drivers ?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I got TWRP instead of the CWM options. I am trying to add the roms for my emulators and the Nexus is not showing any of the folders to install the roms in. I am now stuck on dumb, do I need to do another reboot and uncheck TWRP or something because the back up I have on my computer transfered more files than is showing right now on the nexus. FYI the back up doesn't save your apps at all. Luckily the google account backs up your play store purchases so you can reinstall them.

    I unlocked my Nexus 7. But when the root process is finished, I have no SuperSU app in my app drawer. Also, during the unlock or root process, I would have to manually go on Bootloader for the process to continue. It never managed to activate the bootloader by itself. Any idea why the app is not automatically installed on my nexus? I checked with Root checker and my device is not rooted.

  • @bRANDOM047

    I got version 1.5.3 and I checked my nexus 7 and found it on build JR003D so I made sure to select that version and not the JR003C version. I am on the screen to install drivers and dont see that automatic drivers for Windows 7 option. But it is all good I am not fully ready yet to root this device. I have backed up everything on the internal storage. I am hoping it backed up the internal storage of my purchase of MAX PAYNE and the DOCS to go App. I dont know where that info is stored?
