http://forum.xda-developers.com – Hi Everyone, I am having issues with my previously rooted Nexus 7. My device was rooted when it first came with Nexus 7 toolkit v2.0 and was rooted successfully. After an update to android 4.2 via the OTA updates, the root status was taken off from the device so I've used to tookit again to restore the root. But it seems like it was not properly rooted when I tested it using the root checker basic. I've downloaded the Nexus 7 toolkit v4.0 yesterday to re-root the device but all options does not seems to work at all. 1. Root Device [ (HowTos)

Trying to re-root 21 weeks 1 day ago

I previously rooted my nexus 7. Now, probably because of the latest update, it does not appear to be rooted.

I originally rooted it with the "Nexus Root Toolkit v. 1.5.5 by WugFresh".

[Q] Can't restore nexus 7 30 weeks 5 days ago

Hi all,

Since I'm new to this forum I was not allowed to post on the developers threat, so I made a new one hoping some one could help me.

My new nexus 7 arived a few days ago and I had rooted it using the Nexus root Toolkit 1.5.4.

Hi,

I haven't rooted my Nexus 7 yet, but I have had this device for couple of months and it has been great for me.

Before I make a decision to root, I wanted to make sure if Google Video or Google Wallet will still work after rooting. I vaguely remember reading that these two features might not work on the rooted device.

The Nexus 10 may not be selling as well as LG’s Nexus 4, but that hasn’t detracted from its surmountable capabilities.

Rooting Problem! 10 weeks 4 days ago

Hi all, having a problem rooting my inspire 4g, when in Fastboot , it shows the phone is S-OFF but I have no root access. I used the root checker app, and it says that my device is not rooted. I then used EasyAceRootTool, but when I select to root my device, it says that ''the hboot needs to be updated'' and it then starts a download from HTCDEV.

Hi, I have just unlocked my bootloader and rooted my Nexus 7 on 4.2.1 JellyBean. Everything was successful, until now. I backed up with the root toolkit before unlocking the bootloader. After rooting was completed, I tried to use the "Restore" option on the toolkit. Everything works, until it just freezes.

I'm new to the whole Android thing but I used to install lots of roms on my trusty old Windows Mobile devices over the years. I remember then that trying out different roms sometimes meant things would stop working.

Here's my problem. I have a Nexus 7 and it works fine on stock unrooted 4.1.2. I think. I've used the Nexus Root Toolkit to (very easily) unlock and root it.

I'm a newb so I'm new at this. I rooted my N7 today and installed a (kernel maybe? sorry I don't know what I'm talking about) from poitee using a guide that used Nexus Root Toolkit. Everything went well FWIW but this time I don't have an article to follow so I'm a little lost.

It used to be called the Galaxy Nexus Root toolkit, but with version 1.5, it’s now called the Nexus Root Toolkit because it supports all Nexus devices, including the Nexus 7. WugFresh is famous for giving us the quick and easy way to unlock and root the Galaxy Nexus as well as flash it back to stock and re-lock it.
