**Disclaimer** If you don't understand what follows, don't attempt this. I'm not responsible for you softbricking your device,
This is a quick guide for how to install the new android without losing anything. You'll need fastboot for this. Also, before doing this, be sure to download the supersu cwm update zip, and have it on your sdcard. Make sure you also already have a custom recovery installed (I did twrp, but i'm sure cwm will work just as well). I would also suggest having a backup done, through titanium backup and through recovery, just incase.
First, download the factory images for the n7 from google's website. Decompress them (if you're in windows, you'll need winrar or something similar.) After you decompress the archive, there'll be another one inside (image-nakasi-jop40c.zip), decompress this one as well. Under here, you'll see the .img files for all the partitions. For now, go up one directory. You'll also see here bootloader-grouper-4.13.img. Once you have all this, reboot into the bootloader.
Once you're in the bootloader, you can update the bootloader to the new version (this step isn't needed, but I did it anyways). Plug into your pc, and type fastboot devices. Make sure it's not blank. If it is, you have to update drivers. If you can see the device, open up a command prompt, and cd to the directory that has the bootloader-grouper file. Type the following:
fastboot flash bootloader-grouper-4.13.img
then, after it's done, type:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now, you'll be booted back into the bootloader, it'll say 4.13. On to the rom.
cd into the folder image-nakasi-jop40c (make sure you see the files system.img and boot.img before you continue. If you don't see them, the next steps will do nothing but erase your kernel and system parition.)
now, you see the image files. Type the following (still in the bootloader)
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img
wait until it completes, then type:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Once this is done, hit the volume up on the device until it shows recovery mode on the top. When it does, push the power key and you'll boot into your recovery (shouldn't be touched.) Inside here, flash the supersu cwm zip file, which'll flash the superuser binary, and supersu. Once this is done, do a factory reset (removing your data and cache.) Boot into the rom.
Once it's booted, you'll notice your internal sd card appears to be empty (mine did, I was worried at first.) For some odd reason, it moved the entire contents of my sdcard into a folder on it called 0. When you get back into android, simply move the folder all up one level so they're in the proper place. You now have the rom booted, rooted, with all your data. Now, you can do a titanium restore to get all your stuff back.
My first boot got stuck for some reason. if it happens to you, just hold the power button and hard reboot. (I did this on 2 devices, it only happened to one of them, so I figured I'd give you all warning.)

Thanks for this.
I flashed the 4.2 ota in the dev section and I lost root. Can I just flash the supersu binary in cwm to regain root?
Thanks for this.. Apparently you found out too a clean 4.2 isn't rootable via typical methods.
That SuperSU package did the trick. I have to remember to keep a SuperSU binary on hand for these kinds of situations that SuperUser fails..

Yes. If you do it though cwm, you're not using any exploits, you're just inserting the superuser binary and supersu.apk into the proper places on the rom. On any nexus device, any rom, this will root it.

The "odd reason" is called "multiple users" - add a second user and they get a folder called 10.

Exactly.
If everything goes right we should have an AOSP prerooted build in about *looks at watch* 20 minutes.... Unless there is a compile error or SU error. *laff*

Just got this working on a mac...
did not update bootloader(couldnt get it to)
other than that, same commands except all fastboots are ./fastboot on a mac
the only other trick is i needed the fastboot and abd files in the jop40c folder...seems to have worked like a charm....im deff on 4.2 with su installed... and it looks like my data is still there...once google is done restoring i'll know just how sucessfull it is, but so far, seems to work!!!

I did this all on linux, just kind of adapted the guide for windows. I figured all the linux users would understand how to do it on their own. Glad to know it's the same for mac as well.
OK where did they put the developer options? Not in settings on my 32GB 4.2 device
Never mind. This: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...hidden-in-android-4-2-heres-how-to-find-them/

Settings - about tablet - build number

You have .bat file in the package.
Why so complicated?
I downloaded 4.2 from here:
http://android.clients.google.com/p...gned-nakasi-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.094f6629.zipia
I then just flashed it from recovery via CWM.
Done.
CWM asked me if I wanted to maintain root and of course I chose the correct answer on this, so now my N7 is running on a rooted 4.2.
Here is my method:
1. Download official 4.1.2 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929270 and 4.2 OTA image from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1989188
2. Boot into CWM (i have CWM touch installed)
3. Clear data and install 4.1.2, don't forget to turn on root in the installer
4. reboot check that root is fully working
5. reboot into recovery install 4.2
6. before reboot CWM will ask to disable recovery flash and protect root. Ansver yes to both questions
I'm confused, it says if you are already on a custom rom, just flash as usual.
What makes this different?
I was on stock ROM rooted with some system modifications, and this wwadd the only way I could get the update working...

So I'm at the step listed above. I have 4.2 on my device but I can't seem to find this "0" folder. I'm browsing the /sdcard folder via adb shell. Am I looking at the wrong place? Do I have have the incorrect permissions? Or might it not be there?
Thanks.
Ill have to wait until a rooted rom is created, I have no comp.

Not advisable to move this folder - if it got moved to a new location by the o/s then there's probably a good reason why - maybe like 4.2 introducing multiple users
Each user appears to get their own "home" directory created in /mnt/shell/emulated/
Default user dir is "0"
Second user dir is "10"
Each contain the standard dir's from 4.1 and earlier.

You had two extra characters at the end of your link, but I fixed it above and it's good to go for others in the future. Just flashed it in TWRP, it didn't ask if I wanted to maintain root, hit reboot when it was complete and lost root, so it doesn't work for everyone - good news is that all my data remained intact without having to resort to advanced restoring my data from a backup....
When I tried the SuperSU binary root flash trick, I finally got root back. But don't think it's as easy to get to recovery! I had to obtain the TWRP Recovery one more time since it wiped it and put in place a recovery that did absolutely nothing but reboot the device after a few minutes, so you'll have to
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-grouper.img
to get TWRP back.... Hope that helped everyone!
Hi guys! Yesterday i installed NostromoPop 2.3.0 (08/02/16)[CM12.1][5.1.1] cuz my rear camera wasn't working and i found that could be a fix, but doesn't work. So this morning i tried to put back the stock rom but my phone got stucked on battery logo. I've tried to push power button for a long time and volume down+power . But seems that is not responding.
Could i fix it or it's dead? Thanks! ( Sorry for my bad english)
How are you reinstalling Stock ROM ?
You can try to press Power+Vol Up key to enter recovery, if you have TWRP installed you can re-flash stock ROM from a Nandroid Backup

I made it. Thanks a lot man!
hi,
so heres the deal,
before oem unlocking,installing twrp, installing modify rom. (with out ads)
i did a backup of my phone via recovery mode.
it created 6 files userdata_xxxx_xxxx.backup (.backup 0 to 6) in total of 11.4GB , i have tried to see if its a tar file, i tried to open it with 7zip and tried to dd the first 512bytes , nothing worked.
i would like to know how can i extract / view /open these backups that i made to restore some pictues, since twrp wont recognize the backup that i've made with the stock recovery , i dont want to erase the files and data that i have at the moment so i would not restore it right into the phone , so manual way is only way.
i am on win10 and linux
after omit all the packages as one
doing file gave me this userdata_xxxx_xxxx.backup: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b (needs journal recovery) (errors) (extents) (large files)
trying to mount with mount -t ext4 -o loop,rw userdata_xxxx_xxxx.backup "tmp" gave me an empty result "empty thumb drive"
help will be appreciate thanks alot!

I know you said you have data currently on phone you dont want to loose. But it seems it might be easier to make twrp backup of phone now. then put factory recovery on and restore that back up you have from before , save off it what you wanted, then put twrp back and restore the twrp backup.
where do i get the factory recovery img ?
also thats sound alot more easier to extract/view the data instead of removing everything that i have now :S
when using file the output is that
userdata_xxxx_xxxx.backup: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b (needs journal recovery) (errors) (extents) (large files)
this file was made by the bash script bckp2cwm.sh

Of course it sounds easier to just mount the backup and browse for the files. But you are not able to do it, so not an option.

use fastboot.
power off phone. Power on while holding volume up.
you get a boot menu
use volume to select fastboot, power to select
connect phone to usb. Open terminal window , verify connected to phone, and confirm drivers, type "fastboot devices"
as long as connection return with "fastboot" and your "serial number" it is working.
type "fastboot boot ENTER FILE NAME AND LOCATION OF DOWNLOADED RECOVERY"

Hello J3 Pop users. I have here a "backup" of the PL1 firmware made using TWRP. This flash procedure may be necessary if one can not flash the Odin ROM because of any number of failures (there seems to be a common problem with this). I am not positive if this is stock, or pre-rooted.
If you're looking for an Odin file, check here https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/rom-pl1-samsung-galaxy-j3-emerge-sm-t3580396
First off, DISCLAIMER: This is not a factory approved flash method, and if you haven't done so already, may void your warranty, or brick your device. Use at your own risk.
Now, with that out of the way, you will need to install TWRP, if you haven't already. That can be obtained from this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...overy-twrp-3-1-0-1-samsung-galaxy-j3-t3573607
Just follow the flash instructions, but you don't need to attempt to root it... that part might fail in this case anyways.
Download the file from this link. you will need to extract the folder inside to ".\TWRP\BACKUPS\{device serial}" on your SD card. If you don't see this folder, just create any kind of backup from inside TWRP, even just the "EFS" partition will create the folder you need.
With the files and SD card in place, select "restore" inside TWRP. Select the partitions to restore, and there are two partitions labeled with system, i would recommend restoring both. The "EFS" and "EFS2" partitions should never be restored unless you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that those partitions are corrupted (it rarely happens, even when a device is bricked).

so on TWRP when I go to flash the recovery nothing shows. is there anyway to fix that?
EDIT: I fixed it. I put it in the wrong folder.
Hey! I really need this file! please send me if you have a backup, I would really appreciate it!
@Greaper88 Please give me access
I am just new to this flashing custom roms or firmware and twrp also. And dumb enough to not back it up.
I wanted to install arrow os in my phone. When I was about to wipe data, cache and dalvik, I accidentally checked metadata also and wiped. Then problems created more problems.
problems right now:
I cant put a file in my storage
Internal Storage is just blank on my pc
No OS
TWRP on both slots
please help me i really needed help and knowledge about it
I hope the attachment helps
EDIT--
Solutions to my problems:
WHEN you softbrick your phone and you only have fastboot and nothing else
Thanks to this guy..
SOLUTION: download your original firmware but choose the fastboot one and not recovery after download just unzip. Double click flash_all.bat and its back to square one.
WHEN you dont know how to flash or the file you have is .img
SOLUTION: find a guide in xda because apparently you can install a .img file in "fastbootd" mode
the guides here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...sues-all-without-any-custom-recovery.4337099/
COMMENT: not the usual thats what on top of youtube search.
WHEN you see errors in twrp/orangefox recovery you might get panic and search for solution.
COMMENT: try to find and use a solution that doesnt delete something first. In my experience it got bricked even more.
Thanks to the people who commented back on my post and helping me get to know what to do next.

Do I download stock ROM in official website? Cus I dont have 1 right now
then flashing it there by using twrp? is that how its gonna run? because i really dont wanna assume and create another problem
Try flashing this stock ROM (global) from a SD card, in TWRP. It's a recovery package, so you can install it as any zip.
Also, can you boot into fastboot/bootloader from TWRP?
Plus, where did you get the ArrowOS image? There are no builds, official or not.

Should have said "extract the file, there's a zip or img inside", don't change the file extension.
Update: I found the guide how to sideload ... just change the Ext4 to F2fs
[Tutorial] TWRP ADB Sideloading
Alternative solution: OTG usb flash drive - With one of these, you can store a ROM zip safely, and still format ‘userdata’ to f2fs or EXT4. TWRP ADB Sideloading Requirements: Mac | Linux | Windows PC / Laptop and TWRP Custom Recovery Moto G...

and I was able to sideload it and then got MIUI finally
what worried me is there were still errors like system_root, vendor and product... and its running fine now I guess but im back on track to make it to arrow OS.... I hope no mistakes this time like deleting metadata.

no problem next time installing, stick to sideloading, less room for error
I cant seem to install TWRP recovery again it justs bootloop .. I dont know why anybody knows?
Whenever I fastboot boot twrp3.6.1-rosemary it fails, says too many links, and when I fastboot reboot recovery it boot loops
flashboot flash boot twrprosemary says okay in slot A and I even put it to B and flash it there sadly
the problem might be because its A12 ... just an update

A12 shouldn't be a problem.
Probably you should flash another vbmeta.img.
OR
I don't know if there is an .img twrp around, but if there is you can:
Code:
fastboot boot {recovery.img}
and then [Advanced]>[Install Recovery Ramdisk].
