Hi all,
So, because I am dumb as *****, I did not do a nandroid backup of the original ROM for my Rogers Galaxy Nexus.
I now have the well spread out USB port problem (any battery not charging beyond X % and falling....) and would like to bring it in for warranty replacement. However, I realized that I omitted the most important step when I first flashed my ROM to 4.1 (the push updates were taking too long for my taste) and now I'm stuck with a google build which I enjoy greatly but do not want to bring in to Rogers support.
1- Can anyone tell me exactly what build the "stock" Rogers G Nexus are at and is there anywhere to get it? (My HTC magic stock ROM was easily accessible and I can`t seem to find it for the GNexus... is it just the google build?)
2- If the stock ROM is not accessible, could anyone upload a nandroid backup of the stock rom?
I just don't want to bring it in for warranty replacement, get a new one and then get charged 400$ on my bill because tech support saw it wasn't the right ROM on it.... (I've read it happened to a guy on Verizon, don't want to take that risk.)
Please help... :crying:
Any luck on the stock? If not I'll try to upload mine. Lol its funny cause my problem is I have the yakju boot loader. I can't find rogers yakjuux. Did u go the yakju way?

Let me know if this works. I haven't tried to many drop box links but here is a yakjuux backup

There is at least one stock yakjuux ROM posted in the Dev section, and one posted in the General section. There may be more as well. It doesn't matter if it says Bell or Wind or Telus or whatever. All yakjuux ROMs are the same.
By the way, I have yet to hear of anyone returning a device with yakju or takju on it and getting denied warranty, however, I have heard of many people returning it with yakju or takju flashed, and still receiving warranty service.
Hey since your here. Do u know if primekk15 is yakjuux as well? I can't find a working tested primekk14 efrant

Yup, KK15 also came on yakjuux devices. I already replied to you in the other thread.

OK here is the question. (Yes) I'm asking before research. Can I not unpack a yakju firmware and swap my yakjuux stuff in the package. So I get format and no root etc. (Talking about Odin files)

What are you trying to do? Flash yakjuux to your device? I suppose what you're saying would work, but why not just restore one of the nandroid backups of yakjuux that i mentioned earlier? Much simpler.

Cause I can't get rid of cwm fully and updates say untrusted zip. They still install but I want to do it like yakju. It ota then updates perfectly.

The reason I want to do this is I don't remember if samsunng had any stuff on here and I want to see if there is any performance difference with using 100% the way the phone was shipped. (I love the S notepad) and I can't remember if it came with phone

Yes you can get rid of cwm. The JRO03C thread i replied in earlier has a full cwm backup of yakjuux. If you restore that using cwm, it will overwrite cwm with the yakjuux stock recovery. Then flash the kk15 bootloader and the radio from that thread.

So I have been really wanting to run MIUI but but I'm on 4.2.2. I would greatly appreciate if someone could educate me on downgrading to 4.1.2 but with the ability to go back to 4.2.2 with no problem. Thanks in advance.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
What are you running now? Stock? Are you unlocked and have a custom recovery? If so, just make a backup of your current Rom, give MIUI a shot, and if you don't like it, restore your backup.
If you are still on stock, you need to unlock and install a custom recovery. This will delete what you have on your phone, so backup any pictures, texts, etc. There is a guide in the forum. I'll paste it in another post.
Good luck.
Am I missing anything guys?

I am currently using a rooted ZTE N9500 as my main phone and i wish to upgrade my OS form android 4.0.4 to 4.1 i get system updates about once a week but whenever i try to install them they find an error with my browser.apk and fail. At some point of stupidity i deleted my stock browser and even though i re-installed a 4.0.4 browser i still cant update. Can anyone tell me what i can do to get past 4.0.4? Im even willing to look into a Cyanogenmod if that would be a good alternative.
I can give you all the apps for this phone and there is now a cam and stock rooted b14 and b18 for this phone what is the update number?

Im not sure what the update number is but if you could send me the apps and the links for the b14 and b18 that would be greatly appreciated. Im a bit new to all of this phone stuff so im not quite sure what to look for to find the update number.
Also if its relevant, the update link has gone and only comes around once a week now, i attempted to update it using titanium backup and a copy os the ASOP browser apk that i changed to a system app but it still didnt work so if you can send me that stuff it would be amazing. :good: :fingers-crossed:
Well b18 is the newest if you go into your settings you can see what number software you have but I will sent you a link as soon as I get on my pc

Sorry for the necroposting, but is there any news on 4.1 this phone? I'm looking for a ROM for a ZTE V9800 which has similar hardware.
Hi guys! I'm totally in love with my nexus 7 2013, but I don't understand why we still don't have the miui rom. If we do, I did not find it. Even the previous nexus 7 has this rom available. So sad

I would like it too, but I think miui isn't very interested in tablets.
Who knows, someone might be able to do a good job porting. Maybe would need resizing and stuff, but nothing is impossible.

Try miui home launcher, it's called mihome.
Only works as portrait for me
I, too, would love a miui rom.

MIUI doesn't have a native tablet UI, so any port would look rather strange on the Nexus 7. Maybe in the near future when MIUI makes a tablet they would have a tablet UI then.
The MIUI ports for the Nexus 7 2012 have all been discontinued long ago.
I love MIUI and wish it would be available on Nexus 7 but unfortunately that doesn't seem likely.
MiHome isn't compatible with Nexus 7.
I tried porting it but they don't have any 4.3 compatible files. If I had a 4.2 ROM it would work but that doesn't exist as this device was released with 4.3.

how to install?using cwm recovery?simply wipe everything and then flash it?
as far as I know miui v5 is still jb build,kitkat is v6 miui which not release yet,don't even know if the v6 is already work on progress yet..
I have unlock,root stock 4.4.2 already,if I try this v5 miui would it be a downgrade?is it okay to downgrade?
edit : maybe you see their weekly build code,miui roms update every week and they name it by the date,it's 4.3.14 so the 14 means the day of release,3 means month,not sure for the 4 at the first code means..maybe the code for android base version 4..cmiiw
Best way to install is to utilize multirom and install as secondary ROM on internal storage, that way you won't need to downgrade your ROM you have now and you can still use miui and try it out just check it out its in the original Dev section here

ok multirom makes dual boot easy, even a noob can do it, so long as you know how to flash in a custom recovery
here is the thread for it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2457063
and \what even better is if you download the app from play store (also called multirom) then you can setup multirom right there with the app
and as for dual boot its super easy after multirom is setup reboot recovery
go to advanced/multirom
add rom make sure internal storage is selected (dont have an otg connected storage device) do not share kernel and android are selected
hit next
find the zip
swipe to install after install reboot
before entering a rom itll give you a menu to select a rom, shoose the one you just installed and hit boot
and there you have it,
also to setup multi rom with the app just have root (su) and select the three first checkboxes they should be
1. multirom
2. recovery
3. kernel with support
and then hit the button below them and itll download some files and after a bit ask to reboot recovery press ok
then reboot recovery and follow steps above
i have my nexus 7 2013 running 7 roms via multirom and external storage devices
if you feel this is too complicated then i guess try to revert to stock (*same android version as miui) and flash from there? i havent downgraded on this device, i know with multirom it doesnt really matter what android version the different roms are, thats why i suggested it

I feel that Android 4.4.2 causes lag on my Nexus 7 due to the fact that this is my second Nexus 7 (2013) and I'm still having a bit of touch screen issues. It's nothing TOO major, but it's still VERY noticeable. Typing is smooth, but some apps when I'm in them don't always respond to my touch.
I'm hoping a custom ROM or whatever could fix this such as something like Cyanogenmod.
I'm sort of new to this whole thing so please make the steps as simple as possible on how to install this on my tablet.
How is an app being lagy the fault of Android? I had an app or two that were not living up to expectations so I replaced them and miraculously the issue disappeared

I've been noticing it on almost all of my apps.
What apps did you have an issue with?
- Also, reverting back to my original question I'd like to stay on topic.
I only really had problems with Tweetings, switched to Talon, this is on Cyanogen Nightlies on my One, on my N7 I've had no issues with lag. The easiest way to get Cyanogen on your tablet is to use the installer, that's what I used because I was being lazy, them manually updated to the CM11 nightlies
