Tap on Restore , then choose your restore package that you made when backing up. Launch it and tap Archived. Check the apps you want restored and tap Restore at the bottom.

Maybe you're just tired of custom ROMs. Well, here's how to restore your Nexus 7 to its out-of-the-box state—no mods, no hacks, no tweaks. Install the toolkit by clicking "Next" through the various prompts.
Once the installation is complete, go ahead and run the toolkit. A window will pop up asking for your device model.
Choose your device from the list along with its OS version and click "Apply". Follow the guide provided in the toolkit to install the required drivers for your Nexus 7. I recommend "Driver Solution 3", but any of the three options should work.
The toolkit has a built-in guide with pictures that will aid you in installing the drivers. Now with the drivers installed, make sure they're working by testing them over in the "Step 3" tab. The toolkit will verify if the drivers are properly installed and working.
Boot into fastboot mode by powering off your Nexus 7, then press and hold both the power and volume down buttons. The toolkit will download the factory Android OS your Nexus 7 shipped with.
The rest will be automated by the toolkit. Here it is flashing the factory OS and then rebooting your device all fully restored.

Thanks a lot. I've restored my tablet from the soft-bricket state without any complication. The ToolKit made all procedure easily without my direct intervention.
That was so easy. So I recommend this toolkit for every novice. One have only to estimate for itself what problem to solve. I have a question. My mistake was trying a new rom Which for whatever reason didn't take.
It bootlooped, so I uninstalled it. Two problems are occurring. And problem 2 is now my cpu won't recognize any drivers. The toolkit keeps telling me that there are none installed?
Should I delete the toolkit and start from scratch again? And not being able to turn on debugging got me worried. Any suggestions would be great. Put your tablet into bootloader mode. Power it off and the power it back on with both volume down and the power button held down. Use the option to restore to stock in the toolkit, it'll fix everything right up. I'm now following these steps on how restore my Nexus 7, I flashed a custom rom and kernel to my device, which was corrupted, didn't backup my stock rom Will let you know if this work out..
My problem is that I have the dreaded "Black Screen". Holding down any of combinations of buttons for any period of time does nothing. Battery is connected. I've tried to disconnect and reconnect the batter. Nothing happened. When I plug in the device while the battery is disconnected, the LCD turns on, but does nothing when I reconnect the battery. When I plug in the charger with the battery connected, the device does nothing.
When I connect the device to the pc, it says the "usb device is not recognized". I really am running out of ideas on how to fix this issue and I'm really hoping the toolkit will help, but will it work if it cannot recognize the device? Hi, My Nexus 7 is boot looped. I want to restore to factory stock so I downloaded your root toolkit, but am confused about the driver installation. Obviously I can't get into the nexus settings to enable USB debugging?
Should I just ignore and proceed to "Launch Device Mgr"? Well, despite getting no response to my questions, I did trudge on and got my Nexus back up and running. Loaded the option 3 driver, never could get the driver test to pass, but since Windows told me my device was performing properly, I proceeded to "restore to stock".
First attempt failed, but in analyzing the results noticed things were failing because device was locked. None of your instructions mentioned running the Unlock script, but after doing so, the restore process worked as advertised. Thanks for all the work in creating this, for the most part painless software, but I would suggest fleshing out your instructions a bit.
That's not true. Others have reported success and no other issues aside from a spotty internet connection or the battery running too low. Things can go wrong and not all guides can account for why certain things fail, you are after all modding a tablet and whatever can go wrong will.
I specifically chose this toolkit because its automated, will work for everyone, and is the most popular one. Not to be a jerk, as i can understand how frustrating these things can be at times, but who are you to be complaining about service. This is a free site. The alternative is that you go pay someone smarter than yourself to fix it for you.
I for one am grateful that these poor S. B's have to patiently swallow the technically retarded verbal drivel, as well be expected to regurgitate it simply enough for entitled laymen. I agree it is much friendlier than typing long strings of directory paths in a command line, but I can assure you it did not work until I ran the unlock script.
Only then did I see the small unlocked symbol near the bottom of the Google boot screen. Prior to running unlock, it showed "boot failed" in tiny print at upper left of screen and, as I said, while running, the command prompt screen reported multiple fails attributed to "device locked". Unfortunately none of this works for me. I just get stuck at the flying android "Start" screen, and a "Booting failed" message when i click 'start'.
I have tried all this without success, something weird must be going on with my device. There are definitely no driver issues as the device manager shows no unknown devices, plus I can flash recovery images by "fastboot flash recovery filename" and I can also use "adb push filename" when booted into recovery.
