Can you do it in TWRP then?

Yes, works linke a charm. All my backups are now directly written to an USB-stick and the amount of free internal memory increased by almost 4 GB
Edit: upps, I think I understood you wrongly. I was thinking on USB-stick on OTG, not on MTP-mounting. That I didn't check up to now.

Okay so like many of you cwm isn't sticking and when I go into recovery I just have the Google logo, I want to flash ROMs so installed ROM manger and found that if you boot into recovery through that app you can get into cwm.
Would like some advice on which is the best and safest method you have used! Thanks

i assume so, since i use it over and over and over again. anyways, theres a file you have to remove or rename in the /system/ fs that causes the recovery to not stick. most custom roms already have it removed, stock rom you have to remove it. the file is recovery-from-boot.p, rename it or remove it and your recovery will stick(at least twrp, cwm should also).

After I manually flashed update 4.2 I realized that I had less storage, so when I went to settings and storage I saw that I had 4 and a half gigabytes taking up in a file called "0" in the misc section.. It gave me the option to delete it so I did... My tablet is fine... I still have everything.. What did I delete?!

The /0 is your sdcard.
Sent from my Nexus 7
4.2 seems to have a couple of folders that lead to your sdcard, like: 'sdcard', 'storage-legacy', 'storage-emulated', 'storage-sdcard0' and 'storage-0'. Deleting any of these, just cleans your sdcard.

So,
I have Nexus 7 16gb (grouper) and the problem is that it can not recognize the usb(as I guess)
It doesn't charge when powered on. I should turn it off and connect the charger and i charges .
The PC doesn't recognize it . (both Linux Ubuntu 12.10(with necessary rules) and Windows 7)
OTG doesn't work.
The adb does not recognize it.
When in bootloader adb doesn't recognize it. (so i can't flash anything)
I am on stock 4.2.1 JOP40D with CWM and M-KERNEL a32.
Tried wiping everything(leaved only system) and the same result.
It happened after I charged it with car charger.
BTW in bootloader menu it shows:
Baseband Version : N/A
Help me please!
So it does charge when off?

Hmm. There's an app on play store flash image GUI. Not sure if you can lock boot loader with that, but you will need to either stock and relock or get it to not charge at all. Then you can RMA the thing

Thanks!
I thought about flashing again bootloader via CWM
Is that a good idea?
What RMA means?
If happened to me I would try a ROM with stock kernel first
ADB is only for Android OS... You need to use fastboot instead while in bootloader.

If you have to rely on a toolkit, you shouldnt be modding ANY device.
Then guide doesn't say that tho I'm using the [[REF]] all in one nexus 7 jelly bean android development thread then go down to guides and tools click on unlock and root a nexus 7 I'm using that guide

path-to-img/CWM-grouper-recovery.img really doesnt make you wonder where that file is?
put the recovery.img file in the same folder as your fastboot.exe
run the command
fastboot flash recovery NAMEOFRECOVERY.img <<this should be the ACTUAL name of the recovery filled in by you, whatever it is named.
ALSO
remember earlier when i told you to update the adb and fastboot files? (SDK) did you actually do that?
this stuff isnt rocket science, and if you dont have basic computer knowledge, you shouldnt be doing ANY modding of your device....this is ridiculous

In 4.2.2 I used AOKP. I think they're working on 4.3 now (hopefully it will be out soon).
Cyanogemod is pretty awesome and simple too.

Not if you don't reboot after you unlock. Flash a custom recovery right after you unlock wipe caches then reboot = no data loss

If you are looking for some performance enhancements then you just need a root and CWM(recovery) installed for flashing kernels, check Nexus 4 toolkit. Custom ROMS are more for aesthetic enhancements, and the most worked ROM on the area of aesthetic changes is Paranoid Android ROM, they have regular builds for Nexus 4. So check them out, Enjoy your N4 ! .
