[Q] Problem after updating to Android Version 4.3 - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi
I recently had an update to my Nexus 7 (Original Version) and since then it seems very slow to boot up and when I log in with my password the virtual keyboard seems to change between numeric and script by itself.
The problem only seems to be at login and seems to require a waiting period between switching to numerical/script on the keyboard. The keyboard seems to work OK once the Nexus is in use.
Does anyone else have this problem since updating to Android Version 4.3?
My device isn't rooted.

Why you post here if you said that you have the Original Nexus 7? You should ask here:

Probably because my bookmark for my tablet took me here. Didn't notice it had changed since the new version came onto the market. I have now reposted this on the correct forum.

Dolphin incompatible with Android 4.1.2?

Anyone finding that Dolphin 9.0 says it's incompatible with the Nexus 7 running stock 4.1.2?
I just went to install the new Jetpack add on, and found that the version running on my N7 is older (8.5 something) versus my phone (running a CM10 based ROM with 4.1.2 in it).

Doesn't look like jetpack is available yet for tablets. Where jetpack requires 9.0 where you found out that the current N7 has an older version.
On an off note, there is a Dolphin for Pad version. Made for Android tablets. However the browser is not compatible with the jetpack add on...yet. Be patient, I'm sure they will come out with a tablet version soon.
Thanks for confirming.

Just received a response from Dolphin support:
I'm so sorry for the inconvenience.
We find the issue occurs while installing Dolphin Browser on tablets. And we are currently working on it. Please keep update with us.

+1 Was just about to ask the same question, its the same on 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 "not supported on your device" i can install jetpack though, gutted because its a really smooth browser, why isnt chrome that smoooth!?
What i did was sideload the dolphin 9 apk from a titanium backup on my phone. Just shared it to google drive and installed from that app on my nexus...installs just fine and jetpack works as intended.

Is flash compatible with Dolphin?
Dolphin is visible in the app store again. They must have fixed the compatibility flags.
I seriously doubt if the new version works with Flash though - we had to use a specific older version for that.
Someone install the new one and try it!

Yep..they fixed it and I can install it on my tablet today. Last night it wouldn't.
Really fast browser....but why don't they make the interface better? You have to press 3 buttons to get to share or settings.
Anyone have issues with 9.0 constantly crashing? I've never had it either just "disappear" or pop up a "Dolphin has Crashed, E-mail debug log" before today, and it's happened twice in the space of 5 mins with the latest update.

Yeah, wiping its data cleared up my FC issues.
But I had to revert to the previous version- the context menu (long-press) is gone on images, so I can't save them anymore. I've reported it though, so hopefully it'll come back in the next version.

They released an update to Jetpack (go figure) that fixed this today, so I'm now up-to-date!

How do I update my Nexus through the computer?

Hello everybody,
I own a Samsung Galaxy Nexus and since the 4.2 Android update was available I checked my updates and it doesn't show up where my friend's nexus 4 got it immidiately.
My question is, what's the potentional causes of this, and could updating from the computer solve this (also how do we update from the PC, I am really new to the Android world) ?
Thanks a lot.
Follow this guide.
Note that if you have the Verizon version there's no official 4.2 available as of yet, head over the development section to grab a 4.2 ROM instead.

If you have the VZW nexus, you won't get it. It has already been pushed out to the other ones.
Actually, this guide is the one to update incrementally with: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170.
Also, you could adb sideload your update, if you're fully stock, google it from android police, i believe...

Nexus 9 and 10: Remix OS 2.0 ROMs now available

We’ve just announced the release of Remix OS 2.0 ROMs for Nexus 9 and Nexus 10. The Nexus 9 and Nexus 10 ROMs are now available for download here:
Nexus 9 ROM
http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/nexus9
Nexus 10 ROM
http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/nexus10
We’ve been conscious of all the interest that Nexus 9 and 10 users have expressed in being able to experience Remix OS 2.0 on your tablets. We definitely heard your comments and are excited to finally have Remix OS 2.0 ready for you to experience.
Thanks!
Hey Jason!
I read about the RemixOS and it looked awesome!
I have a question, will you ever support or port the OS to the galaxy note pro in the future?
Thank you in advance!
Great news!. Installed now on my Nexus 10. Good job and thank you for your effort Remix Team!
Took me forever to get it working...
First boot took 35 mins. I shut down a while ago and attempted to restart, but it's been more than an hour now and my Nexus 9 is not back up. Completely stock RemixOS 2... Wtf?
Thank you so much for this. This has added a new life to my Nexus 10. Please keep releasing updates for Nexus 10.
Great Android distribution for my Nexus 10, fast and good enough to give more life for my tablet.
There are some issues sometimes, such as Firefox will not show the rendered text, it will show a white browser area with text behind a white overlay.
Also, in the Play Store, the device appears as a phone, this is because the ro.product.model and name are changed from the default values for Nexus 10.
Is there a root method for this yet?
I'm impressed with this OS. It makes sense on a bigger tablet like my Nexus 10. There are not very many issues I have come across. It makes me want to get a dedicated mouse and keyboard and use it as more of a laptop. I know Remix OS is still new and developing, but I can only think of a few things that I look forward to seeing.
1. Widgets. I did see a video that 2.0 had widget support. Am I missing it or is it just not in this build yet. https://youtu.be/ledz0FTlzKA
2. Removing apps from the home screen.
3. Persistent notifications. I've always used apps like battery widget reborn and weather apps and Calendar Status Pro that give me notifications that stay in the notification shade. They seem to go away once the app is closed on this OS. Maybe it would cause multitasking issues if it had to keep stuff like that in memory and that's why they don't exist but if it's possible, that would be nice.
4. And on a not so important note, the lock screen could be more useful as far as notifications and all.
Also, questions about updates. I think I read somewhere that Remix OS is updated pretty often. Will the Nexus 9 and 10 get the same updates every other devices get? Will they be OTA and do we need the recovery that came with the download in order to use the OTA (I am using TWRP still)? And will being rooted effect the OTA (I rooted with SuperSU)?
Thanks for this awesome new OS. I love how different it is from normal Android but is still Android.
+1 great first impresión. Great work and the same few things to improve if the remix team is open to suggestions.
Bluetooth issues? nexus 10?
I have no issue connecting either 1 mouse or 1 keyboard, however when i want to sync both a mouse and a keyboard, i cannot locate the second device. For example if i connect my keyboard then my mouse becomes undiscoverable, even though my other devices can see the mouse. If i pair the mouse first then i cant see the keyboard. BTW im using a nexus 10.
Is there a way i can have both be paired at the same time?
I have a bluetooth mouse and when i connect to the tablet the mouse is skippy, laggy and jumpy. whatever you want to call it. Any way to remedy this? is it a bad bluetooth mouse? or can the tablet not handle it?
anyone know how to revert back to stock from remix os? i try to flash image, failed. try to enter recovery also failed. help anyone?
Do I have to revert to stock from Remix OS 1.5 to upgrade to Remix 2.0?
tyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Did you try simply forcing bootloader mode and flashing with fastboot from a PC with the flash-all script that comes in stock images? I mean, hold power + volume down long enough for the tablet to reboot, then let go the power button but hold the volume down. Then select fastboot and finally, connect the tablet to the computer and follow the normal steps for flashing.
What are the chances for eventual Nexus 7 (2013) support?
Hey there, I'm very new to Remix OS, and I just installed version 2.0 on my Nexus 9 and it works flawlessly. My only question is, when I set a Pattern as a lockscreen password, the lockscreen with the clock disappears only leaving the Pattern dots. Is there a way that I can keep the lockscreen clock while still having a Pattern? Thanks!
I just get a boot loop on my Nexus 9 WiFi (volantis).
Reflashed all the images twice.
Does it matter what version we are coming from? I was on the N Dev preview. I'm currently flashing Marshmallow stock images, then I might try to go to remix from there to see if it makes a difference.
Also the flash instructions say to flash userdata, but there is no userdata.img, the instructions also don't say anything about vendor.img, but I flashed it anyways.
EDIT: It didn't make a difference. It just says GOOGLE, then the Remix OS logo flashes for a second or 2 then its back to GOOGLE and does this infinitely.
EDIT2: Looks like flashing the stock 5.1.1 images, and then flashing the RemixOS images worked.
Remove Remix OS from Nexus 10
So, I installed Remix OS on my Nexus 10. So, Now I want to remove it and install CyanogenMod on it. Using Win7, adb can't see the current device even though it worked fine when it had a stock Android on it? Suggestions?
Cant detect SU Binary
I ran SuperSU (Chainfire) and it cant detect the su binary. is there a workaround for this? can I reroot my nexus 10 using typical methods without flashing the stock firmware?
Will there be a version for the Nexus 9 LTE per chance? I'd love to make the switch...

915A - No root? No TWRP or CWM??

Am I just missing it, or is there no root or recovery ability for the 915A?
Marshmallow 6.0.1 ****ed mine up when it got pushed down, and Samsung's backup software (all 3 of them) failed to capture my apps and settings properly. Really wish I could've had a better backup ability.
Does or has anyone checked to see if the update to MM 6.0.1 has unlocked the bootloader on the SM-N915A like the Verizon variant?
How does one check?
Att have not released any M updates.
Mine updated to 6.0.1 the same day I bought it . Several small updates happened first. 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 then a small one, and finally 6.0.1. Since I had just bought it, resetting was a simple thought. But so far, no problems, I bought a PowerBear to make it last longer. :fingers-crossed:
Mine had a lot of issues after being updated. MMS didn't work at all. SMS worked sporadically, but would sometimes delete whole threads. Couldn't get a signal in many spots. Google Play Services wouldn't run and couldn't be fixed. Tried a cache-wipe and every other non-destructive method, but nothing worked. Ended up having to factory-reset, and since then the phone works as it should, but none of the backup methods captured key settings. Basically all it did was save contacts and APK's. Lost my 2-factor keys and everything.
I am with you! Since the update to MM, phone has been very laggy/unresponsive. Lock screen lights up for no reason sporadically and I have LOTS of dropped calls/deadspots. VERY irritating! I wish this release would have been tested a bit more before it was OTA pushed out
Hey all! Good news! A 9-year-old bug called the "Dirty Cow" exploit still exists in the Linux/Android kernel can easily grant root on any Android phone!!! See the video below.
http://www.xda-developers.com/9-yea...-dirty-cow-can-root-every-version-of-android/
So there's another bug to exploit for root and even possibly unlocking the bootloader! The bug has been fixed recently in Linux but hasn't been rolled into Android yet.
Could someone make this Windows compatible? http://androiding.how/dirty-cow-root-android/

No, its not available on Oxygen OS. You shod get it kn Nougat though
It's not an integrated feature, but you still can manually (or with an app) modify the build.prop file to change it. And that works in pretty much any ROM out there.

Not sure if you are rooted if so this is an easy answer
If you are not rooted its also an easy answer and no need to start a thread simply google it "how to change dpi on android" or "how to change dpi on Oxygen OS"
The instructions will pop up and voila.... i use it all the time on my non rooted phones that I am unhappy with the dpi..... You're welcome
