This isn’t my first Nexus 7 (my kids had 2012’s and I had a 2013: they were all unlocked and rooted). This year I got my oldest a 2013 model, and promptly set to unlocking it and rooting it. TWRP is my normal go-to for ROM jumping ease.
This time; I used CF-AutoRoot to get it rooted, I used the simple fastboot oem unlock and fastboot flash recovery twrp.img .. all appeared to have went fine. UNTIL; I booted into TWRP and none of the directories had any files. So I rebooted back to the OS, installed Astro file manager, looked around and sure enough; all the .zip files for trying out the ROMS were there (along with some gapps files).
So I installed twrp via the PlayStore, and fired it up. It can not see the files either!? (It also said BusyBox wasn’t installed; I installed a couple (and un-installed them) to see if it would see them; it did not and doesn’t appear to install what it needs even when it asks if I want to install it). I installed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip earlier in the process also.
Ideas? I did use adb to push the files to / and again to /sdcard .. I can see they went via Astro, but when I’m in TWRP nothing is there? What gives?
Thank you,
P.S. I’m running 6.0.1, bone stock except for being rooted and unlocked.
