[Q] First time Android user, Nexus 7 rooting questions!

Hello everyone, I'll start off with a little introduction and I apologize in advance if this is the wrong section for my questions. First off my name is Chris, I've been a long time apple user. I've been with apple since the iPod Video. I've always jailbroken my devices and currently have a 5s and iPad 3. I'm very tech savy you could say so undergoing a process that maybe technical I'm not sure of the rooting process for androids, But i'm sure I'm more than capable of.
Anyways this will be my first android device ever, lets take a moment and thank my girlfriend for buying it, well will be buying it this weekend as a christmas gift. From what I've been reading the nexus 7 is an amazing tablet, and as my first android device I'm glad to hear all the positive reviews.
What exactly is the rooting process? Do I need anything extra beside the device? Just curious on that since I know its a different device all together but for both the xbox 360 and ps3 you need outside supplies to apply their very own rooting I guess we can call it.
On my jailbroken devices, what I mainly use it for is tweaks, themes and emulators.
What exactly does rooting provide for me? Like the positives or erm similarities to jailbreaking a iDevice?
Is it possible to root the current nexus and firmware? I know over at apple jailbreaking is prevented through firmware updates and currently not possible to jailbreak iOS 7.
Does android also do this?
I believe these are all my questions for now.
Little facts about me,
In my 3rd year of college, IT major/web developer.
Hacked/Jailbroken/Rooted? Devices
iPad 3
Xbox 360(flashed)
Nitendo Wii
3ds via supercard dstwo
psp back from the old school days with pandora battery
Also looking forward to being apart of the android community, and owning a nexus 7.

This more or less automates rooting your nexus 7.

If you root you can have (mainly):
Custom Kernels (a modification of Android's kernel) that let you make deep changes on the device, for example over or underclocking the processor and GPU.
Custom ROMs (a modification of the device's system image) let you change many things in the OS, but not as deep as a custom kernel (you can't overclock or undervolt the CPU or GPU by only changing the ROM, you need a custom kernel for that)
If you want something deeper look for it on Google
Sorry for my english, since I'm from Argentina

I would also recommend the wugfresh nexus root toolkit. Just make sure you update it after first start.
You need to unlock bootloader that means wiping your nexus completely. Then you can root using the tool.
I would not install custom roms on a nexus, you´ll anyway get latest goodies from google. However,
- AFWall+ firewall is very good for privacy protection
- AdAway gets rid of most ads
- Greenify saves battery and keep device smooth
- Orbot can enable tor routing for specific apps, such as orweb browser
Just follow the toolkit guidelines to first install pc drivers etc and you´ll be fine. Good luck.

Thanks everyone, But custom roms, would that be like a custom firmware? What exactly does a custom rom do or a specific or best custom rom out there?

Custom ROM basically=the os

Here's a copy of an email I sent to friends that bought a Nexus 7:

Thanks for the topic.
I've a question!
After making root at the N7, are there any problem in upgrading Android via OTA?
Thanks :silly:

Thanks for the responses everyone.

Many people seem to think you can only root wiith flashing TWRP over stock recovery. You can easily root with stock Android and stock recovery. Just in stead of 'flash' TWRP use the command 'boot'. That way you temperary boot TWRP via adb fastboot and with usb-cable attached. And than can flash SuperSu without loosing stock recovery. (Provided you already unlocked bootloader).
To make it easier for future OTA's and keeping root. Just before upgrading from by Google server pushed OTA 4.4 to 4.4.2 I bought Pro version of SuperSU and enabled 'Ota Survival Mode'. Worked great, after OTA still root. But off course it's wise to first keep an eye on issues and updates of SuperSu before applying future OTA.

My personnal :manual to temperary load TWRP in Dutch. Hopefully translate workes. Perhaps I can translate when back home
TWRP recovery tijdelijk laden zonder te flashen over stock recovery:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Kopieer eerst de met TWRP te flashen zip-file(s) naar de interne SD van Nexus. (Bijv. laatste SuperSu)
2. Op PC downloaden en uitpakken Android Sdk. Ga naar map 'Platform' of 'Platform Tools' (map met adb, fastboot, etc.), https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
3. Download (en uitpakken) laatste TWRP voor Flo en kopieer naar map Platform (Tools) met adb fastboot, etc. Geef de recovery-twrp.img eventueel voor het gemak een kortere naam. http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/flo
4. In de map met platform tools en twrp.img terwijl <Shift> ingedrukt houdend met rechtermuisknop ergens in map klikken en dan met links klikken op 'Opdrachtvenster hier openen'
5.Op Nexus 'Usb Foutopsporing' (debugging) aanzetten via 'Opties voor Ontwikkelaars'. Daarna Nexus uitzetten.
6. Nexus via Usb-kabel aansluiten op PC. De Nexus dan aanzetten tot Nexus 7-map (via Verkenner) op PC verschijnt
7. In eerder gestart Opdrachtvenster typen 'adb devices' en druk op <Enter>. In opdrachtvenster wordt als het goed is aangegeven of er connectie is met de Nexus.
8.Op de Nexus verschijnt tegelijkertijd het bericht 'Toestaan Usb Debugging?'. Druk op oké.
9.In opdrachtvenster op PC typen 'adb reboot bootloader' en druk op <Enter>
10.Om TWRP te laden nu in opdrachtvenster typen 'fastboot boot twrp.img (met voor twrp.img de correcte bestandsnaam)
Nu wordt TWRP tijdelijk geladen voor gebuik zonder de recovery over de stock recovery te flashen.
---------------------------
In TWRP zips flashen:
---------------------
1. Zip(s) moet(en) dus al van te voren op interne SD gekopieerd zijn (Bijv. laatste SuperSu)
2. Druk in TWRP op 'install'
3. Blader vervolgens naar de gewenste zip, die geflashed moet worden, en kies die zip-file door er op te drukken.
3.Vervolgens 'Swipe to confirm flash' uitvoeren
5. Reboot. (Als SuperSu geflashed heb je nu root).

Finally, after two weeks failing with various methods, I successfully used this method to root 8.5.1 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1&postcount=18.
Please note, I had previously failed at step no.7, because of lack of space in the system folder. I then overcome by first removing some applications such as audio amazon, etc, before step 1

Possibility, kindle with x. 5. 1 to Rooten
hallo und gutenTag,
ich habe ein Möglichkeit gefunden, den Kindle mit der neuen Softwareversion x.5.1 zu rooten.
Nachdem normale Root Tools nicht funktionierten - nachdem ersten reboot wurde der Kindle sehr sehr langsam und fastboot treiber konnte nicht installiert werden - habe ich es zusammen mit einem Freund mit n2aos probiert. Dabei hatte wir die selben Problem und konnten es folgendermaßen lösen.
Wenn der Kindle bootet, um im fastboot den exploit auszuführen, starte ich vorher parallel das Tool "KFHD_SRT_v2.1" und startet den Kindle parallel in den Fastbbotmodus. Anschließend konnte Root im Fastbootmodus installiert werden.
Ich habe es nur mit dem Tool N2Aos ausprobiert, aber vielleicht funktioniert es ja auch mit den Root Tools.

After normal Root tools did not function - after first reboot became of the Kindle very much very slow and fastboot driver could not be installed - I have tried it together with a friend with n2aos. Besides, the same problem had we and could solve it as follows.
If the Kindle boots up to explain in fastboot exploit, I begin before in parallel the tool "KFHD_SRT_v2. 1" and begins the Kindle in parallel in the Fastbbotmodus. Afterwards Root could be installed in the Fastbootmodus.
I have tried out it only with the tool N2Aos, but maybe it functions also with the Root tools.

Thanks esema1o! i tried the app and worked like a charm on 8.5.1! now rooted! all the issues about rooting the 8.5.1 i have read about ending with so many bricks, i would recommend anyone with Fire HD 8.9 with 8.5.1 version to use this app for root if you having trouble rooting with the so many other methods/tools i have read about on XDA! the app worked great, 2 clicks and rooted. i was somewhat scared to begin with because it just looks to easy for such a device that so many people are having problems rooting and the app is not written in English, but i said wth and tried anyway and what do you know, SUCCESS!
can't post link but a simple search and several clicks to actually get to the .apk download

Severe Wifi stability issues

Hallo all,
First of all a thanks to all the nice people helping everybody out of their misery. I really appreciate your effort!
On to my problem:
I own a XZ1 C since January and have been quite happy with it. A few weeks in I also rooted my device successfully (I think).
My smartphone was already at version .157 so I had to use the downgrade method.
Root 14.4.A.0.157 [ LB / UBL ]
But recently I noticed that I basically cannot access the Internet via Wi-Fi anymore. Everything I do takes forever to connect and then mostly takes forever to load.
The funny thing is, however, that my brother also owns a (not rooted) Z1 compact bought from the same vendor (Amazon) and has none of these issues in the same network, at the same location. He can watch 720p videos all day long while I often have to wait for 144p vids to load.
Sot the first thing I would assume that I did something wrong while rooting, but I cant image that such a "soft" error would come from a wrong firmware....
And that's why I need your help Is there anything beside a full reset via PC Companion and hoping for betterment? I have also read some articles, not related to the Z1C, that some AVM-modems can cause problems. Do you know of any internet wizzary to help me out?
Thanks for reading and replying!

First of all go to Settings - More - Internet settings - accept the question and install. Then check the WiFi again.
Check if it is possible to root your device.
goto settings - mobile networks - network mode
goto settings - mobile networks - access points
goto settings - mobile networks - provider
...check all these things first!
otherwise please give us more informations:
- which ROM?
- root-method successfully completed? (check whether your device is rooted with THIS APP
- try to flash Sony firmware via flashtool and check the WiFi function again
- flash a stock prerooted ROM such as KitSlim and check WiFi again

I have done all the checks as you wished:
-Did not help. As far as I know this has nothing to do with WiFi, pls correct me if I'm wrong.
-I already had my device rooted, so yes it is rootable.
Again not sure how this should help with WiFi but here you go:
-Network mode is WCDMA/GSM
-Accesspoint is Planet 3 drei.at (Three Austria)
-Provider is 3G 3 AT
I am using stock ROM 4.4.4 build 14.A.0.157
During rooting my phone no error massages appeared or something similar, so I'm quite sure everything is as intended. Also the App says everything is ok.
I'd prefer not to fully reset my phone yet and would much more like to get the reasons behind my problem. But if no other options are left I will definitely come back to this option.
Thank you for answering

Jetzt wirds schwierig...
Hast du den richtigen WLAN-Schlüssel eingegeben?
Diese Sch**** .157 firmware - ich nutze die KitSlim, eine .108er, läuft astrein, vielleicht eine Überlegung wert...
Ansonsten hab ich momentan auch keine andere Idee, sorry

Did you put the right WiFi key in the device?
The fw .157 isn´t the best, i prefer .108 - KitSlim, give it a shot...

Tja das ist wie ich es befürchtet habe, wäre das OS Windows könnte ich zumindest den Treibern die Schuld geben ^^
Als Side Note finde ich es aber auch nett, keinen Support seitens Sony zu erhalten. Die behaupten natürlich, das läge an meinem Netzwerk bzw. daran, dass ich es gerootet habe...
Aber ich denke wohl das Beste, was ich machen kann, ist dann wohl ein reset über PC Companion.
Trotzdem Danke für deine Bemühungen.
in english:
That's what I thought after all. If only it was Windows so I could blame the drivers ^^
As a side note, I am very disappointed of Sony's support as they (of course) blame my network and me, because I rooted my phone.
In the end the best thing I could do is resetting my Z1C via PC Companion.
Anyway, thank you for your kind support.

As a quick update for anybody encountering a similar problem:
I now flashed the kernel only which I downloaded while rooting the phone. It seams like this fixed my problem (for now) without erasing all my data. However, I will post another update to confirm the solution.
Finally back to HD video

Ok so I can now conclude that there seams to be a problem with the firmware.
After some while the problem just sneaked right back so reflashing the firmware is just a temporal solution. But I guess there is nothing wrong with flashing the firmware again and again, until Sony release an update.
I hope this helps.

EMUI 10 Beta has started.

According to a german forum EMUI 10 Beta has started.
Only problem they mentioned: Your phone must be free of any provider updates. Otherwise the beta app doesn't show no beta projects.
I'll keep you posted.
UPDATE: If you do a reset you'll see that the Beta is available for Germany an the UK.

UPDATE 2
The subscription period has ended and the Beta is about to start.

What do you mean with a reset please? In the Beta app I've deleted the protocol, but there isn't a project to join? I'm in Munich. Thanks.
Edit: Habe mich jetzt dort eingelesen. Danke. Bin wohl nicht bei den 400 dabei.
