Update?

I just received my nexus 7 and there's already an update available. I plan on rooting and flashing a custom rom. Should I update or not? I know sometimes an update can cause problems when it comes to rooting and whatnot so I thought I'd ask first.. thanks for any feedback!

Yes update it. I updated to 4.1.1 first then unlocked, then rooted with permanent cwm then flashed touch cwm from rom manager.
Use nexus toolkit though so you can restore stock recovery to flash Amy new updates and root again easily.
Also no harm updating to 4.1.1 and then rooting we have methods set up for that right now.

You can root it before or after update, you're just updating to 4.1.1, or you can install a ROM that is already there, if you're rooting either way, just go for it right away

This is a nexus device. Unlike other devices you never need to fear an update may break your ability to root.

N7 build numbers

Hi all I have x2 Nexus 7 32gb versions.
The old one came with build JRO03D and the new one came with JRN84D.
When I updated the new N7 to Jellybean 4.1.1, the build became JRO03D, question is, which is the newer build number ? I thought it was the JRN84D as it was the new Nexus batch that just got delivered.
cheers
JR003D is 4.1.1 where as other is just 4.1

Google update in rooted nexus 7 (2013)

Hi every one!
Have one question: does i get OTA updates from Google when i root my nexus 7?

You're in the wrong forum; this is for last year's Nexus 7. Nothing will stop you from receiving the update, but installing successfully is another matter. If it's like the 2012 n7, having root and custom recovery will not impede an OTA.

The OTA is not out yet, you got 2 options:
1.Wait for OTA.
2.Flash factory image(there are guides here on XDA).

This do not warrant creating a new thread in the general section or any section.
OTA is rolling out right now, just wait.

Hi Bhargav,
I was in the exact same situation as you this time yesterday, now I'm enjoying brand new, shiny and delicious Android KitKat!
You'll need to get the factory image if you don't want to wait for the OTA. I followed this step by step guide which you'll find in the Nexus 4 sticky roll up thread...

It was written as a 4.3 guide but works just the same for 4.4. Enjoy KitKat!

Nexus 7 (2012) 4.4

Hello everyone,
I just recently updated to kitkat and am wondering what new features come for the nexus 7 . I read quiet a bit about the features online but they are either don't apply to the 2012 nexus 7 or i just can't find them . I did stumble upon this nexus 7 thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506506
It seems to have most things that I believed would be updated. I installed the Google launcher and love it . So do I need to install all these updates manually even after the official 4.4 update ?
Thank you for the help
John
