Currently I m on Pure Nexus (6.0.1) rom.. it's really amazing in smoothness.. I have installed Bank's gapps.. all is well till now except battery drain.. it's almost 1.5 times more than my stock LP.
So I want to remove gapps..
I know that I can reinstall rom after wipe and not install gapps that time..
But that can take time as I ll have to reinstall all my apps and data again..
I was using gapps remover on gingerbread roms..
Is there any gapps remover tool which can save me from all that reinstallation trouble?
I just want more battery life and not to charge my phone twice in a day..

Just dirty flash your ROM and don't install GAPPS. Problem solved!

Hi,
I have stock rom 4.2.2 on my tilapia.
Few day ago I've made root access.
I'm testing some kernels. but now, I lost my 3G connection permanently.
There were a moment, when I had a connection (poor, but have sometimes) for example on M-kernel, or a44.
I've installed franco for testing now. but I've lost my 3G connection.
(I think it's not so important)
Main question:
I have stock 4.2.2 and kernel a38 by Mettalice. Can I flash only "tilapia-radio.img" from oryginal/stock rom in recovery ?
Yes you can flash only the kernel img. But wipe cache and dalvik cache after.

No, no.
I've already flashed anotker kernel with stock 4.2.2
but I've lost my 3g connection and now, I want to flash ONLY tilapia-radio.img from original rom.
Can I do it ?

Yes, you can use fastboot to flash it in thru the bootloader. My guess is simply the kernel or ROM you are on does not support the 3g version of the n7. I believe you even said you flashed a new kernel that killed your radio. Just a thought. You would have to actively try to delete your radio, which I doubt you did.

Hey guys, im currently on paranoid android and want to try the xenon hd rom, i read it's recommended to do a full wipe before installing a rom if your running a different rom. Is there any steps I have to do other than a reset, flashing the rom and the gapps, plus the wiping of the cache and the delvik cache?
Regards.

its always recommended to make a backup(nandroid) of your current rom before flashing anything, just in case. backup, wipe data, flash the rom, flash the gapps or kernel if needed, reboot and profit. you dont have to wipe the dalvik/cache because when you flash a rom it automatically wipes it anyways.
One little thing to add to what simms wrote, whether it's recommended or not in the corresponding thread, when you move from one rom to another a full wipe should be a golden rule.

Noob Here. I have a CM 10.2 Nightly flashed (last weeks version) and I wish to update as it contains some fixes. Have I got to factory reset, wipe cache..etc? or do i simply flash the new nightly? also will I lose all my apps?
Thanks

If you just flash the new nightly (and I'd reflash the gapps too) you don't need to wipe anything and you won't loose ant data

Ok cool. I have couple of questions if you don't mind.
What do I flash first? ROM or GAPPS?
I heared some nightlies have issues, is there somewhere I can look to find them?
Will I need to reflash Franco Kernel?
thanks

Those aren't zips...
To the OP, OTA updates don't wipe your internal storage. Just install 4.4 stock and wait for those.

stock file
As far as I've been able to research it... Installing the stock 4.4.x from a 4.3 rom will require a complete erasure of the data on your internal storage.
My choice is a Titanium backup and transferring the files to a safe place. Followed by a nandroid backup - again stored off-phone it is perhaps belt and suspenders level, but when it hits the fan.. that is when you will be really happy you made the effort.
I did the factory rom 4.41 using fastboot.. and waited for the OTA to 4.4.2 --(file from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images)

Coming from a custom rom, it would probably be a good idea to do a system data wipe. Otherwise, on stock 4.3, you could just dirty flash and wipe the dalvik cache.

Hi everyone,
I have an odd issue with my Nexus 7.
I have first used the Toolkit to make a clean update to 4.4.2. KOT49H.
Then I installed Purity Rom and PA Gapps, everything worked.
But when I tried to install a new Kernel (Oxydo or Faux123), I have a bootloop just after it.
I tried to wipe at differents stages, different roms, I tried the install in different orders but at the end, the only way is too wipe system or factory reset and then reinstall the custom Rom. I guess it works again because Purity has a proper kernel ?
I use TWRP v2.6.3.1.
Thanks.
Have you tried using the lean kernel?? I had issues with purity using m-kernel. I then switched to lean. I'm guessing with the minimalistic nature of lean kernel I didn't cause any problems with the system. Overclocked to 1500 using interactive governor.

Oxydo kernel has some issues right now. Are you installing the v2 of the kernel?
