Hi all,

I have had my Nexus 7 since it came out and I immediately rooted it. It has been fine ever since however I have just gone to use a root app that I have had on my tablet since I rooted it is now saying that it isn't rooted! I checked my other rooted apps and they all think my tablet isn't rooted!! Has the new Android 4.2 update unrooted it? I thought it was safe to update with android?

Not sure what to do now as I have rooted stuff on there but I may as well proper unroot it as I can't root it again without losing all the stuff I got on there. And I can't use titanium backup to back everything!

Any advice you guys could give me would be great. :) 

Cheers

Chris

If you installed an official update from Google, then yes, that is probably why you lost root access.
