[Q] No update button nexus 7 2012 - General Questions and Answers

So first off I have never posted something on a forum before, so if i'm posting this in the wrong place or something please feel free to move it to the right place or whatever. Are you supposed to even create a new thread for a question?
Anyways, I have a 2012 nexus 7. When I go into the the about tablet theres no update button/check for update button. i'm on 4.2.2 and i've heard android 4.3 fixes the lagginess of the device. My nexus 7 is unlocked, rooted, and running AOPK. I think AOPK might be the problem, but otherwise I have absolutely no idea why the update button isn't there.
Also, I know virtually nothing about android, so if anyone has solutions, basic step by step instructions and explain any advanced terminology.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
And I guess I i'm breaking the rules by posting this here according to the button below, sorry, I have no idea how to use a forum. But I would assume a moderator can move the thread.
Thanks.

Availability of Official Firmwares for Atrix 2

I search the entire threads for Atrix 2 and i could not find something related to my inquiry so i decide to make a new thread (hope no problems will cause)
some of the old members they might know the problem i face very recently with my Atrix2 (yesterday because i was messing arround and trying to flash the Razr Rom into the Atrix ----Complete NooB), so i have a simple inquiry and i will appreciate it deeply if i could get a support on that.
i would like to know how many Signed Official Firmwares are Available for the Atrix2
as of now i manage to get the Chinese version(complete useless) and the US ATT version (best option but locked for ATT users only)
if in case something more is available can i request please to be uploaded it somewhere in here
i am not interested on customs Rom since the phone it self is very beautiful inside and outside.
Maybe this thread will be useful for other Atrix2 user too who might facing similar problems with me ( soft brick )
Thanks
George
This is posted in the wrong area, this belongs in the general section. This is also technically a duplicate post as MANY have asked this same question about official firmware, no matter which version.
MODs please move this to the general section.

Yes; anything that is development related, actual "hacks", ROMs, rooting, bootloader unlocks, etc. Go in the development section of the Atrix 2 forum, and and any questions, and requests and general talk of of things not really development related belong in the general section.
It might be a good idea to read the noob thread, and the rules.

Nope, but you might PM daywalker04, he is who got us our US version fxz. He will ask you to retrieve several files off your phone and install an upgrade program, that will give him a log file of what to look for.

no but you can read one of the many stickied guides, i charge for hand holding
simplest way , edit build.prop file , change that 2.3.6 or 2.3.7 or whatever you see , to 4.0.3 , you are now on 4.0.3 ,
What my fellow smart asses are trying to say is: don't worry, you are at the right place. Everything you need to find out about your phone is located here in this forum, but you need to do some reading in order to find it. What you are concerned with can be located in "stickies"- the threads at top of the forums which are indicated by the thumbtacks at the far left of the thread. Don't be discouraged by all the threads. What you are concerned with are only the stickies. It is in your best interest to devote the time to read through the first page of these stickies BC 1. You don't want to permanently damage your very expensive phone and 2. You will be amazed by what this little device can do once you've done a little homework.

[q] htc hd2 installing stock 6.5 problem!

Hello guys!
I have installed Cyanogenmod 3.7.0 (android 2.3.7 version). It's MALGDR installed.
I want back to stock, but I'm not sure how.
I have downloaded the ROM from local HTC-site.
The rom is put on SD-card, so should I erase everything on SD card and make a partiinion FAT32 or can I do this AFTER I have installed WinMO 6.5?
Or could this occur some corrupt data or something during installl? Any help is highly appreciated.
Also, when I will start installing. Should I use the method on using VOLUME DOWN + POWER ON button, to get into that tri-colour screen and then plug in USB, wait for it to connect and then just drive from computer?
When I run the ROM from the computer it is like random rom install. It has to detect the device etc.. for it to install. This will not be any problem?
Thanks alot guys. I really hope someone with education around this will help me out.
Please any help!!
would like to give it a bump, so perhaps someone can help me.

I'd be very surprised if you were the 1st person to want to go from a Magldr booting ROM back to WM, so the answers you need are probably already there. I pointed you there purely because you'd be surprised how many people don't know their devices have specific forums.
Edit: Here you go. A quick google search found this...

Wow, that was a real nice thread. But I'm wondering about if I install without deleting partitions on SD card, and just run the ROM-file that I downloaded from HTC.
Can I do this? I'm really not sure how to exceed this prodedure, since I want radio and HSPL being all original.
Thanks for the thread though, mate. Hope you can help me out perhaps here!

complete newb needs help with a build

I had something like this in the general chat but now i have enough posts i figured i would move it to here.
So far my tablet is rooted,unlocked, and i believe i have successfully downloaded seans tweak.
But now i think i want to give the hydro 4.3 a go. It seems to have solid reviews about really pushing the tablet. But i am open to suggestions on other roms. My main problem is i just don't know enough about doing this. I have read the directions over and over but some of the steps I don't know to do. Can someone go with me step by step to get this done?
There is a reason you can't post here at first. It's so you have time to read the rules. No help for questions in the wrong section. Try Q&A.

OK, questions should not be posted in the dev section; regardless of whether or not it is a ROM inquiry. As for particular question: give each one a shot and see which one works best for you! Asking people which ROM is the best will only result in purely subjective responses.

[Completed] Need to 'fix' nextbook p 7

I have been searching, reading, and attempting everything I could find to fix this tablet for night and days. Some root/busybox detectors/verifiers gave me different results. Before this I knew nothing about this world so i'm a real greenhorn here. All I know so far is my device is rooted because of build no. V2.0.1.JRO03C.user.root.20131219. Afterwards some apps tell me I'm rooted and some told me no. I'm afraid something went terribly wrong with the files. I can't unroot,flash a new recovery, install adb, pretty much nothing works. All the apps I've tried told me an unknown bootloader. I just want to either return the tablet to original factory default or take control of the thing. This is the info I gathered from settings>about :
Model NX007HD8G
Android V. 4.1.1
Kernel 3.0.8
Serial no. YF031412173
And the build number above
At the moment I don't know what other info you guys might need so forgive me if I'm not thorough. Please, help me take control of my device.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
Although there are some guides that could help you solve your problem, none of them seem to have working links for you to download and use.
Because of this, I would recommend posting in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum. Please note that in order to post, you will need to create a XDA account.
Good Luck! - gsstudios
