As I said in other parts of chat that may or may not exist
I may need to start drinking

I do think it would make things a lot easier
Don't mind me, just taking things out of context

So I'm just waiting for this disk I/O operation to actually start and then I might start flashing Paranoid Android
basically I flash the image and push the /system and /boot and whatnot files from both .zip's in right?

Ahaha
Anyways, I use ClockWorkMod and flash it from there
badp
thuds the desk
SaintWacko
Not sure what you mean by both zips
badp
uh, I downloaded pa_grouper-3.15-25MAR2013-010739.zip and pa_gapps-full-4.2-20130421-signed.zip
which are the two files that seem relevant to Paranoid Android and the Nexus 7
One's got a bunch of system files and the .img proper
The other, I suppose, has GMail and the such
("For when you just can't handle the bridge", it's not that hard.)
well, here goes nothing
SaintWacko
Oh
Okay, here's what you do
Do you have ClockworkMod on your phone?
Or some other custom recovery?
badp
I used that toolkit you linked me to
SaintWacko
20:26
Sorry, I'm doing my time sheets for work, and there are five of them
badp
no worries
I even shelled out £3 to ease out the kinks
SaintWacko
Did you do the step in the toolkit to flash recovery?
badp
I think I have, but I'll do it again
No I hadn't.
Getting ClockWorkMod then.
done
SaintWacko
Alright, now put those zip files on the root of your phone
badp
The zip files directly?
SaintWacko
20:28
Er, N7
Yes
badp
uh, okay
SaintWacko
Don't unzip them
CWM uses zip files to flash roms
Then once they're on there, there should be reboot options in the toolkit, go in there and select reboot into recovery
badp
Thanks

Got it figured out?
1 hour later…

@SaintWacko putting them in the root didn't work, so I'm putting them in /sdcard/
also adb sideloading isn't working
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "grouper" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "grouper"
I suppose this shouldn't been surprising in retrospect. I assumed grouper was some code name for paranoid android
sighs and starts another multiple hours download
