JB 4.20 available

[dominic]

Yeah, I tried using Ntool kit v1.5.5 and now I'm stuck on "Waiting for your device to finish booting back up..." which has been on my pc screen for 15 mins now.  Also I'm on the "Start"  screen with Andy on his back and his door open.  How do I get out of this seeming lock-up??  Anyone??

On my N7 I disconnect the usb cable, turn it off and restart.

Thanks, I'll try it...


* Ah, OK back to normal.  Just can't shut down the tool kit on the pc now.  Think I'll just be content with this version for a while... it works.

Re: Stickmount.  Try USB Mass Storage Watcher.  I broke my USB-OTG cable, and can't test for USB flash drive R/W with 4.2.

Radio and Dominic, try the Nexus 7 Toolkit mentioned by Prime, above.  That's how I got rooted again.

CTRL-ALT-DEL on the PC brings up Task Manager, and you can end the Toolkit tasks from Task Manager.

I try the Nexus 7 Toolkit mentioned by Prime but I don't think I got it rooted. Is there anyway to check whether the N7 rooted or not ?
I install USB Mass Storage but unable to check it out because it requires rooted N7

Download RootChecker from Google Play.

I use Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper to check for root.

It has been confirmed that Stickmount is not working with this new update. Unless you over rode it in SU settings Superuser will give you a heads up when starting any root necessary app like Titanium, Goo, Root Explorer etc..

I use Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper to check for root.

The OTA Rootkeeper says that my N7 is rooted but the USB Mass Storage still not able to mount the OTA flash drive
Install USB Mass Storage Watcher and it says that the N7 not rooted

I also install USB Helper, it would not read the usb and said that the N7 is not rooted
So I suspect that the N7 is not rooted that is why both aaps can not read the usb drive

==========

Additional info
I install Nexus Media Importer and I was able to play movie on the USB drive.

Stickmount/ usb mass storage does not work. Good news is it sounds like you are rooted

I think you're rooted, but the same 4.2 per mount issue affecting Stickmount is also affecting the other USB app.

not happy at all with the new update 4.2 on my nexus 7, the quick setting is gone and i have to manually go to the menu and hit the setting, the photo spehere in camera is not working at all and says it's not supported on your device although i believe it's an stupid idea for such a tablet with no rear camera, the only change i realized so far is the clock widget which i am not interested in and about the performance and stability i have no idea yet, i am thinking about to downgrade to 4.1.2 if these weird problems persist and i couldn't get any help or solutions, here's my "thumb down" for Mr google for jelly bean 4.2

[Jamieb158]

I agree,  can you downgrade the nexus?

Do some more research before totally dismissing the improvements with 4.2

The quick setting is not gone. There are now two pulldown menus, a right and left. The quick settings is on the right
