Yes, just flash the flashable zip through CWM recovery and you're good to go.

Gotta ask, but is there absolutely any reason why one would not want to do this? For example, would it screw up Skype or something? Does it increase shutter time to something unreasonable? Anything?

None that I know of...if you run into problems you can do a nand restore. You should always have a fresh one on hand.

So I've had my N7 for 30 minutes. So could someone please direct me to a rooting procedure and suggest a ROM.

Good, I would recommend keep diving through post for your better knowledge and understanding. Happy learning

There isn't too much out for 4.2 but 4.1.2 has plenty of options. The easiest way to root would be a toolkit. You don't learn much but if you don't care that's fine. Otherwise keep reading.

I'm pretty savoy rooting and installing ROMs on my Samsung skyrocket S2. So I didn't know if there's a better way w/N7. It has already updated to 4.2.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
There aren't many ROMs supporting 4.2. I think there is one that is stock deodexed. 4.1.2 has plenty of options. You may like 4.2 though so try it for a bit. Wug has a good toolkit. One click rooting. Easy

Hello,
You should try the 4.2 roms in the development area. There are stock ones with root enabled by default. I'm using scrosler's one for 3 days now and it's working ok. Better than the OTA anyway.
You do need to flash clockworkmod first to be able to flash roms.

Thanks for the suggestions.
If I use the native Linux installer to put Ubuntu on my new n7 will i lose android permanently or can I revert back to android if I don't like it?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
You can revert back. It's explained on their site (Ubuntu's Wiki for the Nexus 7 Installer).

I don't see why not. I'd backup your ROM, then copy your backup to your computer (or entire internal sd), install Ubuntu for N7. To revert, reflash factory images and re-root, flash recovery, wipe and restore backup.
I'm not sure if it wipes out your recovery or not, I am assuming it does.

Looks like fun running this install. I'll let you know how it goes. Seems the Linux is a little buggy with the n7. I'm interested in how cinnamon will run

Trying to unroot using:

But keep getting this error when I get to step 6:

FAILED (data transfer failure (No such file or directory))

Hello all,
I've followed all the instructions posted on how to root my Nexus 4 on either YouTube and XDA. However, I keep getting the same "waiting for device" message once I set my device into bootloader mode. Any tips on what can or must I do next to solve this issue?
Thank you and I appreciate any help I get in here in advance

Use Wugs toolkit to install the device drivers
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34674471
And you should really have posted this in Q & A
Sent from my Paranoid Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Well my first thought is to make sure you have USB debugging enabled. After that I would try the PDA net drivers instead of the one that came with the toolbox. I had a similar issue and that fixed it.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Mine was a pain to root. Drivers wouldn't update, other things didn't work, and the toolkit kept saying my ADB was off. The problem was my sdk wasn't up to date. Once I fixed that, I just used the ADB method and it was done in ten minutes.

Thank you so much. I'm downloading the Wugs toolkit now. Will revert back once I've installed and root my device

I have apparently enable USB debugging but the issue still persists. I'm gonna try BigSimon's suggestion and will let you know if it works.
Anyway, thank you so much for the feedback

Not sure. I'm running stock rooted. I don't use cm. It's completely stock so I'd imagine it should work ok. I can't say for sure though.
Give it a shot.

If it doesn't work you can also try a custom kernel. But I can get you a link to that tool later today if you want to go that route.

Kernel is the same as boot image. If you're already encrypted then you need to flash ex with no force encryption selected. Then format userdata. You will have to flash kernel after wiping data to get tweaks back.
