You can easily reboot from the Terminal Emulator app typing these commands:
1. su
2. reboot
Get an app called quick boot, should be in the market

Quick boot bc it the click of an app and the push of a button vs have to open emu and type commands so yea i would say app is better quick boots a prime choice for ne android device that doesn't have a reboot feature or an added mod like 4-1 reboot that are in most roms

if you solely only want to an app that reboots your NT, go with quick boot.
terminal emulator is for those who want easy reboots, and then some. mainly good for devs, or people that have experience with linux.
so i think in your case quick boot is the best option

+1 for Autostarts. Just be keep track of what your stopping. You can pretty much disable any of the start files from apps you installed, but when you start disabling native apps & processes, you to can get force closes on a boot up.

When does the WiFi turn off? Immediately after the screen does, or 15 minutes after that, or after a few hours?
There is a trade-off between keeping devices like WiFi on and extending battery life. Android prefers the latter and tries to go into suspend mode if it can. If you want to keep WiFi on all the time, you'll have to keep a wakelock active using some of the apps from Market which are designed to do this.
To see what I mean, try this:
Start the default Android music player and set it to play something in a loop. The default music player will set a wakelock and prevent the system from going into suspend mode. This should keep your WiFi active as long as the music plays.
Thanks.. Any suggestions on a app?

I never use such apps, so I can't recommend any. You can, of course, also set a wake lock from the command line. Install the Superuser app from Market, if not already installed, and then inside a Terminal Emulator window, type:
To set a wake lock:
Code:
$ [B]su[/B]
# [B]echo user_lock > /sys/power/wake_lock[/B]
To remove the (same) wake lock:
Code:
$ [B]su[/B]
# [B]echo user_lock > /sys/power/wake_unlock[/B]
The "user_lock", above, can be any word you want, but, you have to use the same word for both setting and then unsetting the lock. Ie., don't use "user_lock" when setting and "xyzzy" when unsetting. Also, only type the stuff in bold.
First off this is very easy and anyone can do it. This is for the people who are running Roms that doesnt have SmartSync disabled
When SmartSync is disabled it will stay disabled after restarts also. So no need to run the commands again after reboots.
Download "Terminal Emulator" from the Play Store and open it
When the app is running enter these commands one after the other
su
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncProvider

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then press enter

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this one disables SmartSync in the night time
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSynServiceReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and thats it. your wifi or 3g wont disconnect if your phone goes to sleep anymore.
To re-enable SmartSync simply run the following commands
su

Just sent you an email but I don`t have 4g so it will be tough for me to get the property and test however if you can help me get the prop and test I can try to add it.
if you do a logcat and filter it to only show "SmartSync" and wait until 4g gets disabled you should see something similar to below:
"framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncProvider"
Just send me what you find and I will try to add it.

More permanent solution for root users:
Open an android terminal emulator and enter
Code:
su
then
Code:
pm disable com.htc.htcpowermanager/.powersaver.PowerSaverNotificationReceiver
(there is a space between / and .)
then reboot and profit
after doing this, if you view the App Info for "Power", it will turn it back on
also "pm enable" in the above command will reenable it

Long press the notification, hit "App Info" and uncheck "Show Notifications". Yes, it really is that easy.
The option is greyed out on the att build otherwise you're right it would be that easy.
Jmztaylor has an app and modaco framework has a mod to disable it as well...but I like a minimalistic approach
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
There is an app in the Play Store that disables it.
Jmz Power Saver Disabler (Needs ROOT.) I can't post a link on these forums yet. Less than 10 posts.
You can then uninstall the app and the power save stays gone. (At least it has stayed gone for me.)

What is ParrotMod?
This is a mod to greatly improve the touchscreen performance of the 2013 Nexus 7, on ANY rooted ROM, and work around a hardware problem with the gyroscope/accelerometer (auto rotate).
Updated 1/22/2017 to remove the problematic kernel tweaks, and fix EMI resistance for non-SlimPort mode. Note: I don't own this device anymore.
Download:
https://parrotgeek.com/dl.php?file=ParrotMod_2013N7_1.0.2.apk
ParrotMod was added to @flar2's elementalX kernel.
See here: https://github.com/flar2/flo
GitHub:
https://github.com/parrotgeek1/ParrotMod_Nexus_7_2013
Important Note
In order to recalibrate the screen when you switch from holding the tablet (your body acts as electrical ground) to not (ungrounded), try turning the screen off and on again.
If ParrotMod does not improve the touchscreen at all, it could be that the touchscreen cable is loose inside the tablet. There are YouTube videos on how to fix this, like this popular one:
Spoiler: Video
The feature fixing the auto rotate bug might not work for everyone. If it doesn't, here is a real hardware fix:
Spoiler: Video
If you use multiple users on your tablet, ParrotMod's app icon will only show in the primary user. Enable ParrotMod in the primary user, and it will run even when you switch to another user.
How ParrotMod Works
The touchscreen is fixed by enabling a mode that is normally only used when HDMI is plugged in that is more resistant to electrical interference, and calibrating the touchscreen each time the screen turns off.
The auto rotate is fixed by reregistering sensor listeners every time the sensor daemon crashes. I do not know the underlying cause of this issue.
Known bugs
crash when no root (on N?) Logcat would be helpful!
when you update supersu, parrotmod does not work and says there is no root until you reboot
it does not use emicbhdmi after screen turned off & on (need to keep track of whether HDMI_PLUGGED)
HELP! MY TOUCHSCREEN HAS STOPPED WORKING AFTER I INSTALLED THIS!
Apparently, there is a VERY RARE incompatibility with some touchscreen firmwares which requires you to reset the firmware before installing ParrotMod. ONLY do this if your touchscreen stops working after installing it.
(You need fastboot & adb on your computer, Google it)
1) Plug the tablet into the computer
2) Turn on the tablet with power & volume down buttons pressed, to enter the bootloader
3) download the boot-ts.7z from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-works-for-you-regardless-of-updates.2428133/ and extract it to a folder, open command prompt/Terminal, cd to that folder
4) run: fastboot boot boot-ts10-lock.img
5) your device will bootloop. just run "adb reboot bootloader" after about 30 seconds to get back to bootloader
4) run: fastboot boot boot-ts-unlock.img
5) your device will bootloop. just run "adb reboot" after about 30 seconds and Android should boot up with touch working
