How to Download and Install Nexus 7 Stock Kernel
If you have a Nexus 7 device and you want to restore it to its original factory firmware, you might need to download and install the stock kernel. The stock kernel is the software that controls the basic functions of your device, such as booting, memory management, and hardware interaction. The stock kernel is also compatible with the official Android updates from Google.
In this article, we will show you how to download and install the Nexus 7 stock kernel using two methods: using factory images or using flashable ZIPs. Before you proceed, make sure you have a backup of your data, as this process will erase everything on your device. You also need to have an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery installed on your device.

Method 1: Using Factory Images
Factory images are binary files that contain the entire system image of your device, including the bootloader, recovery, and kernel. You can download the factory images for Nexus 7 devices from Google's website.[^2^] You will need to choose the right image for your device model and Android version.
Once you have downloaded the factory image, you will need to extract it to a folder on your computer. You will see several files inside the folder, such as bootloader.img, boot.img, system.img, etc. The boot.img file is the stock kernel that you need to flash on your device.
To flash the stock kernel using factory images, follow these steps:
Connect your Nexus 7 device to your computer using a USB cable.
Open a command prompt or terminal window on your computer and navigate to the folder where you extracted the factory image.
Type adb reboot bootloader and press enter. This will reboot your device into bootloader mode.
Type fastboot flash boot boot.img and press enter. This will flash the stock kernel on your device.
Type fastboot reboot and press enter. This will reboot your device normally.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed the Nexus 7 stock kernel using factory images.
Method 2: Using Flashable ZIPs
Flashable ZIPs are compressed files that contain the system files that you can flash on your device using a custom recovery, such as TWRP or CWM. You can find flashable ZIPs of various Android versions and kernels for Nexus 7 devices on XDA forums.[^3^] You will need to choose the right ZIP for your device model and Android version.
Once you have downloaded the flashable ZIP, you will need to copy it to the internal storage or SD card of your device. You will also need to have a custom recovery installed on your device.
To flash the stock kernel using flashable ZIPs, follow these steps:
Power off your Nexus 7 device and boot into recovery mode by holding down the power and volume down buttons simultaneously.
Select "Install" from the recovery menu and browse to the location where you copied the flashable ZIP.
Select the flashable ZIP and swipe to confirm flashing.
Once the flashing is done, select "Reboot System" from the recovery menu.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed the Nexus 7 stock kernel using flashable ZIPs.
