Root?

first: thank you for the download links :)

i assume its a dumb question, but i will ask it anyway: can i root after update with nexus 7 toolkit or we have to wait to a new kernel?

Well, I just tried installing the update again and it failed with the same error.
I then tried to update using the smaller recovery update that installed
Nexus7-Binary-Update-JRO03R.zip and it worked fine.

I looked inside the zip file and everything looks good so I don't know why its giving me the no files found error.

Having same problem with "system 7 error". How did you fix? By using another download?

No, the binary update was installed fine. The Google update still fails.

That's a bug in the 3.34 boot loader. Boot the tablet up normally, turn on USB debugging, plug the tablet into USB and do adb reboot recovery from a command prompt. That works every time.

I used ROM toolbox to get into the recovery mode. I start the install and it fails on the verification check

Are you on JRO03D or JRO03S?

Below is a list of all known OTA updates and factory images direct from Google. You can also find all of these files mirrored at http://randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-7 in case Google were to ever take the files down for some reason.

Hi oldblue910, any chance you could add the approx date each OTA was released and the original OTA URL (not just your mirrored Google Docs links) on your randomphantasmagoria.com web site? would be quite handy to have for all the devices. Thanks, it's a useful site.

The dates are a good idea...as far as the Google links...I find those unnecessary since the whole point of the site is to mirror the OTAs in case Google takes them down. I'll work on the dates. Good idea.

Then it's failing because either you're running a custom kernel or because some file on your /system partition has been modified by some root app. You must be running a completely stock ROM in order for the OTA to succeed.

Actually, everything is stock except I added one line at the end of the system pref file to enable home screen rotation. I'll put it back to orig and try again.
Tnx

That'll do it. Replace it with the original file and that should fix your problem.

Didn't you also just say you flashed JRO03R somewhere along the line? That wasn't an official release, so those files might also be why verification isn't succeeding.
