[Q] Nexus 7 - Rooted - And 4.2 OTG cable unplug restart issue - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Peeps, I am new to the tablet market but with the power these beasts throw out now its worth getting it.... and like any self respecting techy tear the thing apart!
Okay the issue: I have a Nexus 7 rooted but only after I downloaded Jelly bean 4.2, I used the Wugfresh nexus 7 roottoolkit. I have flashed the Kernel to the Trinity version so I can overclock and all that (although overclocking does not do much while playing ROMS on FPse??) So the main issue is when I plug the OTG cable into my Nesxus it works ETC I can use usb stick and my PS3 controller BUT as soon as I unplug the cable my Nexus restarts. Plugging and unplugging into normal charger works but the OTG cable just restarts the unit even if I do not plug anything into it. Does anybody have any idea what could cause this? The only thing I can think is the OTG cable is faulty and sends a voltage error restarting the unit?
Thank you in advance and I love the site!

I'm seeing the same thing on all 4.2 ROMS. I also caught a news story this morning about the Nexus 4 having the same issue. I think we may have to back down to 4.1.x until the issue is confirmed corrected. Also we'll probably have to be mindful of the build numbers going forward to know which ones have it and which ones don't unless someone can come up with a zip patch.
Sorry bud

Edit: StickMount (and others) apparently is a workaround, but I'm looking for "nativish" hosting. I prefer mine to just work.

I used the old bullet proof method with doing adb myself and do not have any problem with OTG.
You should avoid one click tools when you can use the good method

[StreakPro]ICS is coming soon/already in the works

Dell Streak Pro - OpenGL ES performance and system information:
Specifically: qcom/da80/da80:4.0.3/IML74K/eng.root.20120319.155153:eng/test-keys
IML74K is android-4.0.3_r1 like it states. Due to the date they wouldnt have had a chance to work with 4.0.4 at the time.
ICS is fully expected for a device this new, but this is the first real confirmation that we've had to it.
Whoever is handling the SPro is making roms at a fair pace, like how the S5 was previously.
While none of the regions (that I'm aware of) have recieved anything over OTA yet,
there's so far been:
3 known Yi roms
1 known EMobile rom
3 known Softbank roms
3 various prototype roms
Given that the SPro doesnt formally have a 00 region rom to stage all it's updates on, this is still pretty good.
Unfortunately none of them have been released OTA, so it means little to the end user.
Very least I have at least 1 rom from every region in the event someone needs to restore.
That's an interesting info. Thanks for sharing!
Does it mean, we will have ICS on Streak
Unlikely, even if we ignore the fact that dell made it, how many other 1st gen snapdragons are officially getting ICS?
I'm not aware of any.
Granted, the S5 and V (especially the V) are really late model S1's and have plenty of storage space for it, but you cant realistically expect ICS on them.
GB on the other hand, dell really did everyone a disservice by not making a 00/retail region GB rom.
In general, the work of ICS are already here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716568;)
If you looked at the title this is about the StreakPro, that has nothing to do with the StreakPro

PS: Now the update has finally landed on the Play Store, and with a slightly newer version number. Hangouts v2.0.122 (as opposed to 2.0.012 on the N5) is presumably beginning its slow and steady staged rollout, but you can get it right now. The problems with video chat and some crashing should be resolved in this new version, as the libvideochat_jni.so library is now included with the Hangouts APK. Previously, fixing the issues the missing library caused meant adding it in manually, which required root. You can download Hangouts v2.0.122, from one of the two mirrors below:
Has anyone actually tried this?

I'm running it. No noticeable difference. No problems before update; none after.
I just got an update to 2.0.128. Not sure what it fixes (most likely the critical bug with emojis).

[Q] Own a Nexus 7 and I want to use a wireless gamepad with it but I have no idea how

PLEASE READ.
I have owned a Nexus 7 for over a year. During that time I have had precisely one use in mind for this tablet, and I have been unable to make it work.
I want this tablet to be an emulation machine for my favorite old videogames.
I want to use a wireless gamepad with it to play the games with.
I own sony Dualshock4's and 3's, I would like to use one of those.
I have asked this question before and someone usually quickly responds with a link to some guide to root my phone etc.
The problem is, I am a really, really stupid person, and get confused as hell by these guides
No, really. I have been wanting to do this for over a year and I have yet to find a guide or explanation that makes enough sense to me for me to actually do it.
I would be really grateful, even willing to pay someone to help me with this.
I do not use the tablet for anything else. It was a gift I have no real use for to be honest. I would feel a lot better about it getting some use out of it....
EDIT: Why does this site keep trying to link to my google account everytime I hit F5? That's annoying and creepy.
You may have already seen this, but in case you haven't, there's a thread on here dedicated to getting PS3 controllers working with the Nexus 7

At the very least, you can post in that thread for further help.
Unfortunately, this is one of those cases where your request sounds simple, but the steps required are complex.

It looks like you can spare yourself some of the headache, by using a USB gamepad (hopefully the PS controller also operates as a normal USB gamepad when you plug the cable in). Connecting and setting up via Bluetooth appears to be very tricky.

I think I'm actually going to just give up and sell it and rely on my PSP and laptop for emulation instead. I'm a really stupid person and this Nexus 7 has been nothing but headaches for me. I just don't care anymore. It's just not worth it for me. I have wasted so many hours watching videos and reading guides I'm just done with it. I'm over it. I'm just going to sell it.

wonder when well see some updated roms
it can take up to 3 weeks to get an update once google starts. within 3 weeks is what google promises.
Newest nexus device = last device to get the update it needs and has needed since it's botched release. Gj googs
Guess it's time to turn back on the webpage update add on for the factory image pages. I mostly just want to try a new modem.

Yeah I really don't have to many issues either I was just being snide. I do think it burns too much battery while sitting idle with screen off though. I shouldn't be losing 5 to 10 percent battery overnight. Mind you my overnights are 6 to 7 hours usually.

Everyone calm down, it's not in aosp yet
and all i want is just a stock deodex rom =/
so what is new besides the HD voice and device protection ?

Finally, someone with common sense (and you beat me to it).
ROM's won't appear until it's in AOSP and Dev's re-compile.
for those devices it goes out to, we might see the OTA available if someone captures and upload it to their favorite BB
And then this could lend credence to VZ's hitting stores with 5.1 a week from Thursday (But I still think those would be a 5.0 variant with a open and update to 5.1 myself ...)

Will there be Oreo Rom for the Tab 2 in the future?

I know it may not be possible due to the restrictions of the hardware inside the Samsung Tab 2. Anyways could there ever be an Oreo Rom for the Tab 2 in the future? I happen to stumble across an online site that had the tab 2 was eligible for an oreo rom. Thanks for any advice or replies!

nougat is mostly unstable. i dont think its the fault of the amount of ram the s3 has 1 gb of ram and it has android 10 roms. I think its the kernel and processor thats causing trouble here
Mostly no

But you can make one yourself
There are tons of tutorials available

I got a cheap Chinese knockoff cable that lasted 2 months before its structure failed. I waited for another 5 months and decided that i would get another one. The second one charged the device but did not transfer and it also was showing signs of a future structure failure. However i got some superglue and mess around with it and to my surprise, it started to transfer data.
