Yes. Nexus devices do not have locked bootloaders so the process is pretty simple.
Not having owned a Nexus device before, how soon do the custom ROM's come in? Are the major/popular ones released immediately?

With this device? Very soon. Google release AOSP source, so dev can be started straight away. At first you will see slightly modified AOSP roms, but kernels and other custom roms will be out very quickly.
Shouldn't it be fastboot OEM unlock then adb push the root files?

Noticed it with the newest update. It still says no official support, but it will ask if you have recovery 3.x.x or 2.x.x installed. Maybe next update we'll get a lil' more love!
Yeah it reconized the tablet as a TF101 and ask to confirm it.

it means koush officially supports the device for recoveries. And now we won't have n3wbs asking "how do i flash a recovery image". But since the recovery image requires an SDcard we'll see "why isn't the recovery sticking".
It almost means that we'll start seeing, and having the options to download ROMs directly via the ROM manager.
Has any one flashed recovery from new (updated) ROM manager
I'm still on Team Rogue's CWR and refuse to leave it. It's CWR 5, CWM seems to only allow you to have version 2 or 3 at the time it seems.
This isn't TF101 specific. Changelog just states that support has been added for any generic device that has unofficial recoveries

It identifies it as a TF101.
The application is probably configured to simplely grab that information from the device and print it as the output when you select the install clockworkmod recovery.

I know, it just uses the build.prop. Any unsupported device has this now too.

Exactly, this does not mean we have incoming CM9 nightlies.

Rezound is unsupported, and it recognizes it, ADR6425, so it's definitely just a build.prop thing.
Unrelated, but does anyone know if the cyanogenmod team has one of these?

It would be nice, but as stated. Someone from the devteam would need one to test on.
It does seem odd that it would allow you to flash recovery, when it wasn't supported.

It doesn't let you flash anything, it just lets you tell it that you are running an unofficial CWM recovery

Steve did blog at one point that we would be supported for 9, iirc.

I was just over on the CM site and be does say in a post that support for the Transformer is planned. That makes me happy in the pants, Revolver is pretty sweet but I loves me some Cyanogen.

Ah, you're right.
On a side note. ASUS did a pretty good job of not over bloating the TF101. A rooted ICS would be fine with me. But CWM is awesome to fix permissions, reboot to recover, etc. It'd be nice to have.
Sorry if I got anybody's hopes up.
So I've had my N7 for 30 minutes. So could someone please direct me to a rooting procedure and suggest a ROM.

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
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
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.

so there's no bootloader or anything like that
Not sure about to be honest but obviously doesn't matter at the moment. all I needed to do is root and install cwm

There is not much need to install another ROM really. I mean, I too love custom ROMs but to he honest, the ROM that comes in with the G2 is really good, lighting fast, smooth and customizable.
The only thing you'll need to do will be to remove any bloatware Verizon has pre-installed.
On the T-Mobile version there's only one custom ROM (basically a clean version of the stock)
There has been not much dev activity yet, but I hope to see improvements soon, specially once the N5 comes out. So they say.
Cheers!
I have the AT&T G2, but I highly recommend TWRP recovery. I had always used CWM prior to this device, too, but I'm not sure if you have to add the Loki exploit to bypass the bootloader with CWM. TWRP has the exploit built in as best I can tell.

thanks guys
Sorry for the silly question but I've been curious. Any particular reason that we haven't seen any AOSP/AOKP ROMs for our device yet? Is it lack of development or is there something a bit more technical that is preventing that from happening? I usually love to tinker and they offer quite a bit more options. Again, just curious....

.....Locked bootloader
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
cant run custom kernel on locked bootloader (retail version)
Yeah but didn't the Bionic also have a locked bootloader? We were still able to run AOKP through safe strap. Hopefully we can run AOKP the same way on the Note 3. Unless I'm wrong about the Bionic.

This is a complete guess but I'd say it wasn't a full aosp rom. Probably just a rom made to look and work like aokp on the regular kernel

I just want to make sure I understand this. There is currently a thread on T-Mobile Developer forum for CM10.2. While it's not working well now, once it's debugged it should work fine on our DEs, with the stock TM CM10.2 kernel?

correct. i believe you have to change just the apn or use global settings but it can be done no big deal at all. kernels run with no issues. im on tmobile kernel from imo with zero issues at all!

I am using Purity 4.4 + Matrix 11.5 right now.
Now my question is how do you guys update your respective ROMs instead of flashing newer versions through recovery? I tried GooManager but it didn't work for me :-|
You should ask in thread about your rom. If devs do not do OTA update you must use recovery to update rom
I think most use recovery

Download updated ROM zip file and flash through recovery (TWRP for myself).

It's not hard but sometimes you get too lazy
Simple. Set up VM environment there are simple walkthrough video and once your set up you can pull straight out of the devs or any branch. I do my own when I feel I need to add a feature I do. There are a major variety of bases to choose from. Its much easier than many think. In my opinion its safer as I know exactly what I'm getting. Not to mention an addiction lay within too. Lol Have fun bro. Welcome to the machine. Many new devs are so stoked when the first ROM they build is complete they can't stop. Lol peace.
