Hi there,
I thought I'd use the holidays to update my ageing Nexus 7 (2013) Wifi 32 GB from Stock Android 6.0.1 to a newer version, in order to ensure software support for apps such as Blockada.
I settled on LineageOS 17.1 as my ROM of choice, unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP and tried to install LineageOS, which did not work because to .img file did not show up in TWRP.
Unfortunately, I got very nervous afterwards and ended up deleting TWRP unintentionally.
Right now, these are the only three menus I can get to:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is there any hope to restore the Nexus 7 or did I just create a glorified paperweight?
Thanks so much in advance.

Run RESTOCK to restore stock ROM or CROSS to install LOS17.
@k23m ,
thank you so much! You saved my bacon .
Managed to Restock and manually install LineageOS 17.1.
The Nexus 7 feels way more responsive now and I have peace of mind, that apps such as Blockada will continue to support the device for many years to come.
Have a great day .

Trackpad, as in on your computer? How did it stop working and, the bigger issue for this question, how is this related to this Toolkit?

A Bluetooth trackpad that stopped working when JB 4.2 showed up.
I'm sorry, it is just a desperate attempt by me to find a solution. Is it possible to downgrade Nexus 10?
Has anybody tried these kits? Any feedback?
Hey gang, just picked up my 8.4 tab S and noticed it has NF9 firmware base installed. Is there a place I can download this? I'm asking because I want to root it but also want to be able to restore back to factory if need be through Odin.
I see NF7, can I just restore to that and do a system update?
Thanks all!!

Save me from android 9!
so i've been using a S10+ that i got from a seller on amazon that said it was an unlocked At&T display model and i got it working on metro over a year ago and been working great since. Problem being i've never been able to get OTA updates and i really want to get to android 10. Now when i connect the phone to Smart Switch on windows i get -
" you device software is up to date (SD3 ATT)"
and then above its on android 9 version 9.0.0...
Model for the phone is a SM-G975U
I havent used Odin in almost a decade it feels like (Galaxy S3 custom Rom) and i'd like anyone to point me to the proper method and possibly a source of where i need to get the proper install files for android 10 for Metro PCS. Can't find much if anything anywhere besides XDA forums being of any help.
any guide or tutorial and links for what i need to do would be a life savers please thank you in advance will be checking on this thread daily
Check Samfirm.com I think it is and this thread out:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/how-to/g975u-g975u1-firmware-links-t3905897
You will need the patched version of Odin to flash any firmware too.

Luckily, i have found a boot.img file and it booted. One small thing though.. The internet is not working when i enable it says its off and when i go back to dropdown menu it auto disables itself.
Edit:I am using a gsi image of LineageOS 18.1 i will try another version of it or another custom rom.
Good news! I contacted HTC and they responded! I just have to give them some more info about the device, i will be back soon with a rom here.
