[N7 2013 WiFi | N7 2013 LTE] CF-Auto-Root

[xbs]

Confirmed working. Thanks.

No root, no SuperSu installed and broke Google Play. On 4.4.2 stock.

All looked good with red android and so on

Everytime i use this on 4.4 it works fine on 4.4.2 it reverts the system to 4.4 again, if i try to activate root survival, then the OTA can't be isntalled

This is on the wifi version, any ideas?

 

[Godswrath]

When I boot the Nexus into bootloader mode and run root-windows.bat and press a key to continue, nothing happens. It just keeps saying "waiting for device". This is on 4.4.2 with the Google USB driver installed from Android SDK manager.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Gods

Worked perfectly, thanks!

I was able to stay on stock ROM/recovery, running 4.4.2 KOT49H, now rooted so I can use StickMount

KOT49H... Is that preloaded? Mine came stock 4.4.

Or is that OTA?

I updated OTA to 4.4.2.
Mine came with 4.3, I got it earlier this month (Dec). I waited a few days before updating to 4.4.2 to make sure all the 4.4 and 4.4.1 bugs were flushed out!

works perfectly

Am I on 4.4.2, can someone confirm if auto root works or I have to go back to stock 4.3 ? The device will be rooted for the first time .

I just rooted mine for the first time. I'm on 4.4.2, latest everything. Auto-root works perfectly. Like stated in the first post, the OEM unlock will erase the device. Thanks for this easy method, Chainfire.

Remember to update SuperSU (from Play Store) after the Auto-root!

Now looking for a nice close-to-stock ROM. Maybe I'll stick with stock (but probably not).

Thanks @Chainfire. As always, you the man!

Just got one of these beauties, courtesy of my boss, and will start developing on it later this week. The first thing I needed was root, so have a beer or two on me

I'm having this issue as well.

Worked great for my deb. Thank you!

Hi,
My WiFi Nexus 7 just updated to 4.4.3 and I lost ROOT.
Will the file in the first post work with 4.4.3? or is there an update coming?

Thanks.

Does this work on 5.0.1 lollipop?

So did you try this on Lollipop?

 

[P.Kosunen]

Is 5.0 version autoroot ok for 5.1 Android?

Edit: I installed SuperSU zip with TWRP, all good.

Just used CF-Auto-Root on a Nexus 7 2013 that had the latest OTA update (5.1.1) on it. Used the "flo/razor" download from the CF-Auto-Root site, though that was based on Android 5.0. But it all worked fine.

Got stuck at the moving circles logo during boot the first time after root, but a power off and restart fixed it.

 

[KrazyKong]

Chainfire, does the current CF-Auto-Root for the Nexus 7 (2013) razor/flo work with Android 4.4.4? I see it's listed as working for Android 5.0 but was hoping it was backwards compatible?

 

[fenixus]

doesn't seem to work with android 6.0 ... hanging on boot forever ...
