Then you can flash the original firmware image using the same instructions that you used to flash the Android Transporter firmware image.ĭownload the Android Transporter firmware for the Raspberry Pi and unpack it. To switch back to the original Nexus 7 firmware image you should first download it from Google’s factory images site. Be aware that the fastboot utility has to be available in the PATH environment for the flash script. In the Android-Transporter directory you will find the flash script, which is called flash-all.sh. Reboot your Nexus 7 device into the bootloader using adb reboot bootloader. Now unlock it with the fastboot oem unlock command.ĭownload the Android Transporter firmware for the Asus Nexus 7 and unpack it. Unlocking the bootloader is done by getting the device into the bootloader using the adb reboot bootloader command. Just search the Internet for instructions how to install this tools. On Microsoft Windows you will also need Google’s USB drivers. This will void your device warranty and it will also do a factory reset! Next, unlock the bootloader of your Nexus 7 device. Raw image (404 error from their own website) Xfce, LXQt, Mate, KDE, None - depends on spin None / Optional minimal LXDE with dietpi-software installer. Optional installer (dietpi-software) for popular, 'ready to run', optimized programs unique to all Pi Models(Kodi/RetroPie etc). There is some information on the news groups that 'hard float' optimization can speed up floating point operating up to 10x, please read detailed discussion on the Raspberry Pi forums.Ĭomparison Operating Systems for Raspberry Pi models A and B The official Raspberry Pi distributions are now optimized for ARMv6 and for 'hard float' which should have better performance on certain CPU intensive tasks. Therefore, it did not make use of the Pi's processor's floating point hardware - reducing the Pi's performance during floating point intensive applications - or the advanced instructions of the ARMv6 CPU. The foundation felt necessary to use the existing Debian port for less-capable ARM devices due to time and resource constraints during development of the Raspberry Pi. The Debian Squeeze image originally issued by the Raspberry Pi foundation as the recommended distribution used 'soft float' settings.
