So in case I'm in 4.2.2, I can't flash this as of now right as there's no zip file compatible for 4.2.2 yet?

use frameworkflasher to make your own. the changes are pretty minimal in the value/arrays.xml(I don't know why it is so secretive). But always keep a copy of the original one to reflash it for future OTA(or it case the patched one fails).

<string-array name="config_tether_usb_regexs">
<item>rndis\\d</item>
</string-array>
<string-array name="config_tether_wifi_regexs">
<item>wlan\\d</item>
</string-array>
<array name="config_tether_wimax_regexs" />
<string-array name="config_tether_bluetooth_regexs">
<item>bnep\\d</item>
</string-array>
<array name="config_tether_dhcp_range" />
<array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app" />
<integer-array name="config_tether_upstream_types">
<item>0</item>
<item>1</item>
<item>5</item>
<item>7</item>
</integer-array>

Thanks for the tip but I guess I'm really not that techie for this. Any further specific instructions?

Hi thanks for your help!! i already did it and it works.

Im gonna write how i did it for other with the same problem:
The next steps are for enable recovery options in fastboot menu, so that you can install zip files and other options

1. First download Google Nexus_7_ToolKit_v4.0.0 and install it
It comes in this threat
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1809195
3. After that enable USB debugging on nexus 7, to do that, go to "Settings > About tablet" and click several times in "Build number" it shoud say you are developer or something like that. Then go back to settings and in Developer options check the USB debugging mode.
4. Then start Google Nexus 7 ToolKit on your pc, by default its installed in c:/Google Nexus 7 ToolKit/ToolKit.exe
5. You can choose to update or not, but you can automatically update only if you donate.
6. After that you have to choose the version of you nexus by introducing the number and then enter, in my case y use option (6. Android 4.2.1 build JOP40D) for 3g version (i dont know if it works in only wifi so do it under your own risk)
7. Stop in the next screen and turn off your nexus, then turn it on in Fastboot mode, to do that i use (volume- and power button) first press volume down and holding press power on button and hold both buttons till a screen appers, and leave the nexus like this, and connect it to your pc via usb cable (be sure to have installed drivers when installing Nexus 7 Toolkit so that your pc recognices the nexus 7).
8. Then back to the computer i choose option (8 1-click for all unlock, root, reneame, custon recovery, etc )
9. Then select option 2 SuperSu by chainFire, cause when i did this i have android 4.2.1 on my nexus, the other option doesnt work for my version of android
10. Then I choose option (1. Clockworkmod touch recovey) and after that it will ask you to confirm so write yes and then hit enter.
11. Then wait till the process finish, and if everything go well you should see in your nexus aplications one called “SuperSU”

Then to enable tethering and hotspot

1. Download the enabletether-JOP40D that stridger (The creator of the post(Thanks!!)) upload or the enabletether-JOP40C according to your nexus 7
2. And connect your nexus 7 to your computer and save the “enabletether-JOP40D.zip” on the root directory of sdcard
3. Then turn off your nexus 7 and turn it on in fastboot mode again pressing and holding volume down and power up.
4. Then navigate through menu with volume up and volume down, to “Recovery Mode” and press power button to choose, then wait a little, it should show you a menu.
5. Here choose “Install zip from sdcard” > Choose zip from sdcard > 0/ > enabletether-JOP40D.zip or wherever you save it and press power buttom to choose it, wait to the installation ends, and that’s all, reboot your nexus 7, and look for the option in Settings > More Settings > Tethering and portable hotspot
Hope this help people like me that have this problem.
Thanks everyone

I tried all above but failed. In enabling the JOP40C, there is no option sdcard. What I see "Recovery mode -> Apply update from ADB -> Now send the package you want to apply to the device with "adb sideload <filename>"". It ends here since I can't find the files. Earlier, I saved the files in c:\Google Nexus 7 ToolKit\put_zip_file_to_sideload_here\enabletether-JOP40D.zip Please HELP!

Both files should be flashable since i took stridgers enabletether zip files and just changed the framework-res.apk
so the stock 422 zip flashes stock framework-res.apk
and the enable tether flashes my modified framework res apk

where i just changed the lines chimpanzeexda told needed to be changed to enable tether.

since it works for me and i dont know why it doesnt work on the first flash for some of you
you need to try if you can get it to work yourselves reflashing it a secont time or so.
thats why i am also sharing stock framework so you can go back to stock.

Worked on second attempt with new zip

Had trouble upgrading to 4.2.2 in the first place (even after flashing stock 4.2.1 system.img). Still had a Status 7 error. I gave up on that approach.

Once I had the stock 4.2.2 image in place I had the same experience as the others. First attempt at enabling the tether with the recompiled zip gave me a boot loop. Restored to stock framework apk and then tried again. Worked on second attempt. Strange! Thanks!

ScanaX · Feb 17, 2013

Flashed using CWM and all works great at first try.
Probably an issue with other recovery or a particular version?
I used "clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3" and all goes fine.
Thank you guys for your job and your help!

Tried what you said but it keeps on saying aborted. Please help. Does this procedure require root? - I'm on Stock 4.2.2
