Hi to all. :highfive:
I created a tool to format the Nexus 7.
It is very simple, just unzip the downloaded file in C:\ and follow the instructions in the text file "INFO"*.
I know that to format with factory images is not funny, so I decied to create this tool. It is the easiest and fastest method.
The file is too big (About 300MB), so you can download looking for "Matteo Lob" profile in Google+
I posted also in Nexus Community in G+
Thank you.
*1. Run EXTRACT.bat;
2. Open the folder BATCH and then FASTBOOT;
3. Run FLASH BOOTLOADER.bat;
4. Run BOOT.bat;
5. Run RECOVERY.bat;
6. Run SYSTEM.bat;
7. Run USERDATA.bat;
8. Go back and open the folder LOCKUNLOCKBOOTLOADER;
9. Run LOCKBOOTLOADER.bat
OPTIONAL
1. You can to flash TWRP going to the folder TWRPINSTALLER an run TWRPINSTALLER.bat
2. You can to unlock the bootloader going to the folder LOCKUNLOCKBOOTLOADER and run UNLOCKBOOTLOADER.bat
Not to put you down, there is already a flash-all.bat in the factory image from Google.......

I rewrote TrueBlue_Drew's Splash Flasher for use on Linux systems.
Features:
Convert jpg, bmp, and png files to .img for flashing through the bootloader.
Backup current boot splash to .img folder
Convert .img splash to .png for editing on computer
Flash .img through bootloader automatically.
To use this tool you will need ffmpeg tool. To get run: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
Also, to run either place both this conversion file and your photo in the folder with adb and fastboot or set up your path so those can be accessed from any folder (for details go here: http://goo.gl/a9k5m)
I will look into making a flashable zip file with this program in the coming days.

So I got some updates made. The file is now error free
Changelog:
Fixed the typo in png conversion
Added a pause before clear on all conversions so you can see if they throw an error.
When flashing the device will now wait for the device before rebooting for debugging.
Changed the wait for user input from read ... -n1 to needing an enter because sh was telling me that was illegal.
Fixed an error on exit

I have a GT-P1000N with the factory default rom, installed CWM Recovery using Heimdall and work perfect, i can enter in recovery, wipe data and cache, but when try to install the rom cm-9.0.0-p1n.zip (get.cm /get/jenkins/5817/cm-9.0.0-p1n.zip) a message saying that an assertion ocurred with the model and cannot continue
I try to do the same with cm10 fro Humeros but with the same assertion problem.
Any help? Any idea?
You can remove the assert lines from updater script.
(META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script)
If on Linux, you can unzip and edit and zip back.
In windows you should open the zip, drag out the updater, edit, and drag back in, because rezipping will screw up the zip due to the file names.
And next time post in Q&A sub forum unless it is a discussion.

Thanks, only for reference to other people have the same issue i shar my procedure:
1. Extracted the files in the zip
2. Open the file updater-script in ./META-INF/com/google/android/ folder
3. Removed the first 3 or 4 lines when the assertion check is made
4. Saved the file and zip the whole directory again (take care to zip inside the folder, without the directory)
5. Continue with the steps of the tutorial.
Hello,
I currently have Tsunami X 5.6 android 4.2.2.
I want to update to Kitkat roms but I cant.
I get "status 7" error while trying to install.
I understood that it's because I have an old CWM recovery (6.0.3.2).
How do I update it?
Sorry for the n00b question..
Status 7 error is caused while the ROM’s updater script file checks to see if the phone model of your phone is compatible with the ROM you are installing called “asserts”.
How To Fix Statue error:
DO A NANDROID BACKUP if you haven't done so already just in case...
1. Copy the ROM zip file to your computer and extract it using your favorite unzipping software.
2. Once unzipped, browse to the META-INF/com/ google/android directory. You will find two files called “update-binary” and “updater-script”.
3. Rename “updater-script” to “updater-script.txt” and open with your favorite text file editor.
4. Get rid of the line starting with “assert” to next semi-colon. Usually this is the first line or one of the first lines at the top of the text file.
5. Save file.
6. Rename “updater-script.txt” back to “updater-script”.
7. Rezip all the files you’ve unzipped.
8. Copy the new, edited zip file to your phone.
9. Try re-installing ROM, now it should install fine without Status 7 error.

If the previous answer is too complicated for you, just flash CM10.2 that will do proper partition for the latest ROMs and give you updated CWM recovery with which you can flash any KK rom. Just reboot once intonthe OS, then back to recovery and flash a KK rom. Don't forget to manually wipe /system before installing KK.
You will need to flash zip twice, as first time it will disolay warning of repartition and abbort with status 7. By next attempt it will work flawless.

It worked great and now I actually think on staying with this ROM lol..
It's very clean and nice.

Boot animations
CUSTOM BOOT ANIMATION
I will take requests and make personnel boot animations for you just let me know what device you have and what you want pics are always helpful!
INSTRUCTIONS:
Step #1
You'll need a proper root browser. JRummy's Root Browser is a good pick, but you can use an alternative, too
Step #2
Once installed, go to the root folder and navigate through system > media. Once there, locate your current bootanimation.zip file.
Step #3
Long-press your current bootanimation.zip file, and click copy, as we'll want to have a backup just in case. Install it wherever convenient for you, we chose the root folder
Step #4
assuming that you already have a bootanimation.zip file that you want to replace your current animation with. Load it onto your phone (we had it in /sdcard/DCIM/), locate it, and again long-press it. Click move...
*Step #5
Once your new bootanimation.zip has been selected for moving, navigate back to system > media and paste it there. You'll have to overwrite your current animation zip, but that's fine since you have a backup in case something goes wrong. Go for it....
6.
For many of you, the previous step will be the last step. But, if for any reason you're still stuck with you old animation, you can try aligning the permissions of your newly-copied bootanimation.zip file with the permissions in the system/media folder. In our case, those were rwxr-xr-x. Just long-press your new bootanimation.zip file and click Permissions and change them until they fit. The logic behind these abbreviations goes like this: Owner - Group - Other. Read for 'r', Write for 'w', and Execute for 'x'. Save the changes and restart...
