Hi all, I want to know, if I will get OTA update of the 4.2.2, if my device is root and the bootloader is unlock.
Thanks!
You will get OTA, but you will loose root. Bootloader will still be unlocked though.

Just use OTA Root keeper and you'll be fine
Besides root I also updated the kernel with the video tweaks from https://plus.google.com/107979589566958860409/posts/9VtBVHP67Hg
Should I restore the stock kernel now?

I am in a similar situation: rooted phone (stock rom) plus franco kernel - i want to update to 4.2.2 but not sure how to do it so i still keep the root and the custom kernel.
I have OTA root keeper installed.
Any advice would be much appreciated :good:

Uhh.... why?
The whole point of having an entire "Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" sub-forum is to be able to post distinct threads for each issue so that no one has to wade through hundreds of unrelated posts in a single thread looking for an answer to their question.
Trying to decrease the usefulness of XDA in order to karmawhore is not cool.
I would like to know too,I'm rooted on stock ROM but with Franco kernel
Thanks in advance

Hi!
I finally found toolkit what supports Nexus 7 Android 4.2.2. With this toolkit you can unlock bootloader, root your device, relock bootloader and unroot your device. Also if your device is soft bricked or normal then you can Flash stock rom and unroot. With this toolkit you can also make a backup to not lose you data when you are unlocking bootloader.

Hope this helped you! Hit the Thanks button!

Hi,
I want to unlock, root and install recovery on my 4.3 JWR66V nexus 4.
Which toolkit shall I use?
N-Cry or WugFresh?
Some guys have problems with WugFresh but it looks easier than N-Cry...
Thank's!

Neither. Do it manually and learn what you're doing so if you have any issues in the future you'll know exactly how to sort it out. Being a nexus device, doing things manually is a piece of cake. Consult the guide in my sig and you should be fine.
Hello,
My Nexus 4 with the new KRS16S is stuck/freezing when I will root.
I use the Nexus Root Toolkit from Wugfresh, (the newest one), with recommend universal driver.
I have unlocked first, but the root don't work..
Thanks...

Someone on the forum usually makes a stock ROM a day or two after the OTA update is released. With that stock ROM you can flash it via TWRP recovery.
