There are several modes probably available to make Nexus 7 tablet mode. What am I confused with all these modes is which one is the possible the safest one?
...
What version of Android is your Nexus 7 running?
Paranoid android rom has tablet mode.

You can use this guide to set individual apps to tablet mode, very easy and painless to do as long as you have root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2205834

Try this option. It is an app that you install that creates a flash able package that will give you tablet ui

thanks for all the response. I am quite happy with stock ROM actually, espesically newest Google update 4.2.2 has been great battery life and fixed a lot of issues. so I am kind of not into mode to flash a different ROM so just get tablet UI mode. I know you can modify build.prop, but again it does not quite works from app to app.
i was kind of asking around and see if anyone has some other solution, preferably a safe method that does not mess up system files (and OTA update fails when there's new release Google pushes!).

I'm rooted, but that's it. Everything else is stock.
You are not alone. I am rooted with screen dpi changed to 160.

Dear All,
It will slowly trickle out to everyone around the world. It's only been a few days since release so give it some time. I know it is hard to stay calm about a new update. :cyclops:

Sure there is a way. Just downgrade to "...D" first.
Or even better, flash the factory image.
seriously guys, it's mega easy to sideload via adb an OTA now... couldn't quite believe how easy it is!
you don't need a custom recovery, nor root... completely stock
google: adb sideload nexus 7
the only prerequisite, is you need adb installed...

Ok but it wouldn't be an update anymore would it ? if we agree on the term update.
I'm not even sure that titanium backup would work if I restore apps from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2.

Are you trolling on purpose or just ignorant? Most people don't want to downgrade and have to setup their device again for an update. We just want to update our devices and keep our apps and app data. And so far it looks like it's simply not possible, as Google has not released an update for JRO03S at all.
Please use one of the existing threads to discuss this.

I noticed there wasn't any stock, rooted and deodexed android 4.2.1 for the nexus 4 so I thought I share the one I created for myself.
Features:
Rooted
Deodexed
Zipaligned
Insecure boot
Busybox
Download:
mako_4.2.1_Deodexed.zip - 300.80 MB
just to clarify, this is a simple flash through CWM/TWRP right?

No you won't. The official updates are patches that need to be installed through unmodded firmware. It's very easy to go back using this kit if need be. Also, I'm sure myself or another member would have a pre-rooted version of the update pretty quickly after it's release so it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I love my stock rooted rom the way it is, I just want it deodexed. Could I just flash this over it? Or do you think that'll cause me issues without a wipe? I'll probably just end up backing up and giving it a go. Haha.

You'll have to wipe. Odex files won't be cleared out otherwise.

Just clear cache/dalvik. odex files are on the system partition and do get cleared when installing a new rom.
I love you and i love that this ROM did not wipe the phone
I was running stock+root, updated no issues
When i flash this will it be the same as getting the ota except for the fact that this one is deodexed? Also this has all the fixes the ota has correct??

Hello everyone!
My name is Anastasia, I am 19 years old, from London.
Yesterday, I bought myself (thanks to my payday) a brand new Asus Google Nexus 7, 32gb, from Argos (shop).
I keep reading what you get with root, and it made me WANT to root it.
Here's my information:
Nexus 7
JOP40D
4.2.1
So, the tablet is brand new, and I HAVEN'T touched it, except when I downloaded few Apps. So, all I want, is to ROOT it in the safest and easiest way. I am scared that it brakes? Anyways, what is the FIRST step? I need it rooted and ready to rock. (Themes, Hide bar, etc.). What, Should, I, Do? Thanks a lot to everyone! I hope I can make it? Take care xoxo

Don't worry. The Nexus 7 is almost unbrickable (can't break it by messing with the software).
You should definatly root it, and when you get the knowladge of what you are doing get a custom recovery, and flash a new ROM, maybe a theme. Trust me you just got a device running android. It's never ending fun. :highfive:
Here you go. http://xda-university.com/.
That site will help you learn what you are doing.
U can try wugfresh toolkit. That's what i used and has the instructions with it. You will need to have adb set up. there video on YouTube showing steps to set it up with the nexus 7As for roms i have smoothrom installed u can change your theme with theme manager. U can download the themes from playmarket or on the xdA website.

Woah! Is that a brick? Nope. You can still go to the recovery partition and reflash a different kernel. Or you can boot to the bootloader and use fastboot to flash a new kernel. If you were bricked you would never be able to use your device again.

Never use a toolkit, its just as easy to do with adb and fastboot, and you have minimal chance of breaking anything or having issues.

Great work. Two things I have rooted by installing cwm recovery then flashing this rom and Google search keeps force closing. I flashed the deodexed version, first I just did a dirty flash, since I was coming from unrooted stock, so I thought maybe ifi go through all the wiping steps, factory reset and then flash but it still fc s. Second thing I thought maybe I'll try the odexed version since I'm coming from stock unrooted and the link won't work. The little green download button pops up but when it's pressed nothing happens then says page won't load. Any ideas?

Just bought a tf701t tablet. It came with 4.2 I was able to disable the white default syustrm theme and use standard android colors. Then the update for 4.3 came. Settings stayed. Then this morning the 4.4 update installed now I'm back on this white theme? And the option is gone to disable it?

I haven't seen anything like that in 4.4. I had to decompile the frameworkres.apk and systemui.apk and change the colours that way but if you are doing that you may as well load cromi-x. So no way to change them unless you can find an app for root that works with the asus framework which I doubt.

Surprised there isn't more Roms and kernels, such a bad ass device, or am I missing something ? Hahahahh. but after a quick read I see the targa 4 drivers are extremely difficult to code.
