All-in-One Toolkit for the Google Nexus 7

Posted August 18, 2012 at 9:30 am by Ian Stacy

The Nexus 7 is quickly becoming the most popular Android tablet. Unsurprisingly, it has amassed a large community of developers who have produced some great tools and utilities for the device. A common utility for popular devices is the ‘one-click’ root tool. XDA Senior Moderator and Recognized Developer mskip has created such a tool for Nexus 7 users that contains one-click root functionality and much more. Some of the notable functions include:

Install/Uninstall Google Nexus 7 Drivers
Backup/Restore Tablet using ADB
Lock/Unlock Bootloader
Root Tablet
Backup Stock Recovery ad Flash Custom Recovery
Boot to Custom Recovery without Permanently Flashing it
Download and Flash Factory Stock Google Nexus Rom
Boot or Flash .img Files
Set Permissions on Tablet
View and Monitor LogCat

As impressive as the current function list is, mskip has also added capability to apply upcoming mods to the tablet (though there are none available as of yet). Both new and existing Nexus 7 users will surely find this toolkit to be extremely helpful. To download the utility, head to the release thread, and be sure to thank mskip for putting it together!
