Thanks...

in fastboot i cant see an option to erase cache at all

what is the boot.img that you mention?

Im basically following the instructions from the site that say:

From another ICS ROM

Download device_x.x.zip and Slim_Common.zip

Enter CWM, wipe data, format system ( in mounts and storage)

Flash Device_x.x.zip***, then Slim_Common.zip

Is wipe data/formatsystem all just one step?

All that happens for me is that a Slim icon appears on screen and just spins around for 20seconds then the phone reboots...

Damn...

Guys,

I "underclocked" my SGS which was running on Slim ICS to 800MHz, I believe.

It wouldn't reboot after this action. Recovery Mode wasn't working too.

So I decided to flash ClockWorkMod Recovery with Odin, with succes. I can acces recovery mode again. Normal mode still not able to boot.

Now I want to install Slim ICS again with Semaphore kernel but in order to do that I need to install stock firmware I believe. Or I need to find a way to install CyanogenMod9 Nightly right away without having stock firmware installed.

What do I need to do?

Suggestion:

1.) Enter CWM Recovery, Wipe data, Format System ( In Mounts and Storage)

2.) Run kernel cleaning script by lippol94

3.) Flash CM9 nightly

4.) Reboot to recovery.

5.) Flash Semaphore 1.2.6

6.) Reboot to recovery

7.) Flash Device_x.x.zip, then Slim_Common.zip.

8.) Reboot to system, Enjoy.

Or do I need to skip CM9?

Move 5 to 8 and you should be fine, otherwise you would end up with slim kernel.

I achieved step 1 but after that it's a mystery

Figured since some of us already have their N7's and most will be receiving their toys in the next week, we can start discussing gaming!

Holding the tablet itself, i can tell this is going to be a comfortable gaming experience, i think the bezels are just right and the weight is great for extended holding periods.

What games are you planning on trying out first?

What are some games that you want to recommend?

What are some games that you are looking forward to?

We can also discuss game compatibility, game controller solutions (wireless and wired), and other :highfive:

Compatible Emulators:

FPse for Android - PSX

just wanted to ask how is ff3?? have you completed it..if you have did it take you long. im thinking to get it. loving the gaming on the device. :);)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] RMXO:
I came close to finishing it but restarted the game after I found a cheat for it. Now that I have unlimited money, it isn't as fun anymore. It didn't take long to get near the end.

I want FF3 so bad but can't justify the price.. yet! haha

I'm going to install 4 games first, in this order... GTA 3, Max Payne, Dead Trigger, and The Amazing Spiderman!

Horn, the game that was unveiled at the I/O looked so cool, really looking forward to that!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
The very first thing i wanted to do when I got home with my Nexus 7 was download and play NOVA 3, and of course it crashes every time at startup. So disappointed. Knowing Gameloft it will be months before they make it Tegra 3 compatible.

dead trigger and heroes call, cant wait! got my wired 360 controller and a ps3 controller so i have choices.lol

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] pathtologos:
+1 on this. Cool thread. Can't wait to start trying some tegra 3 games. I'm into rpgs and fps. Been playing max Payne on my evo LTE and its damn good. Wanna try on n7. From past experience with xoom, fpse looks to pixelated on tablets but I'm sure ill try it. Runs great on my phone tho for both ff7 and ff9.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] RMXO:
Which ones did you use?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Nexcellent:
N64oid and FPSE, I wish i had a Wii controller to use over bluetooth.

For FPSE i tested Diablo, THPS2, THPS4, Spiderman 2, Dave Mirra, Spyro, Tekken 3, and Gran Turismo 2 (crashed)

For N64oid i tested Starfox 64, Mario Kart 64, and Super Smash Bros.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] FTMDan:
Anyone know if there is a way of using a wireless Xbox 360 controller on the N7? I have the wireless receiver thing and I'd like to use my controller if I can, but I don't really want to buy a wired 360 controller just for my tablet when I already have wireless ones sitting here.

I'll upload them here of course :good:
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] pathtologos:
Thanks guys. I feel like an idiot. I've used titanium b4 but usually only to sideload apps. One question though. Do u all install from play store then restore data if the saves aren't there, or do u just install the app with data thru titanium? If so, will u get play store updates?

Thanks again!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] beryenbeh:
guys, one quick question. i already know what "sideload" means, but how do you guys exactly do it? i mean, what is the exact procedure? my N7 is not rooted btw.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Nexcellent:
I usually use Appextractor but it hasn't worked since CWM6 so Titanium has been a savior app backup wise.

You can install directly from Titanium, you will get play store updates.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Nexcellent:
Download the APK on your rooted phone/other tablet, back them up using Titanium Backup, they are zipped files in the Titanium Folder, open the zip file, extract APK, put the APK onto your N7 and install (Don't need root on N7) OR install Titanium Backup on the N7 and use place the entire backup from phone into the Titanium folder on the N7 and restore it on the tablet itself (Do need root on N7)

Alternatively, there is also a Chrome plugin that allows you to pull APK's right from the web browser version of the Play Store, it was discussed here. I have not tried it though.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] zinfinion:
Anyone had any luck transferring an Amazing Alex save between devices? I tried with ROM Toolbox, an AA Backup app, and by hand and no dice. The folder structure on the N7 under /data/data/com.rovio.amazingalexHD/ is somewhat different than on the Tab 2 7.0 which is probably whats hampering this.

Never mind fixed it. Restore App + Data works a whole lot better with the Pro version of ROM Toolbox. $5 of Store credit well spent! :D
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] pathtologos:
U restore app+data right?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] diomark:

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] SoHaunted:
some of these app backup methods sound very tedious.

Download Astro file manager, once in Astro hit the options button and select back up apps. it will give you a list of all the downloaded apps onyour phone, check which one you want and press backup, the app will be in the backups folder on your sd ready to transfer.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] zinfinion:
Don't mind me, I was derping in public. :p Does Astro also backup data in addition to the app? Because I just tried it and all I see getting backed up is the app's .apk.

yep; same. very annoying..

They stated that the release is going to be delayed, and that they hope to have it out by the end of next week. Take note that the initial download size was approx 3.5MB, whereas now the "updated" version of the app is 1.39GB. I suspect that they tried to push an update with the SD card data pre-loaded so we can download it from the Play store, instead of having to try and validate the download and retrieve the SD data from Rockstar's servers. Who knows why they're saying it could be next week.....

Maybe it is taking so long for the release because Gameloft is optimizing it for tegra 3
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] leelaa:
Lmao
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] idevice12345:
It's a possibility
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] leelaa:
Unlikely, the unreleased version that was going around was not optimised for tegra, which means that they would have to do some serious coding to implement it. If that's the case we will be waiting much longer, but it will be out next week mark my words. And if it is you can bet it won't be optimised for tegra.

Gameloft don't do tegra and never will. Just an ugly fact, there to much into Apple.

In all fairness guys, If you try the latest Asphalt 7 update the game looks and plays just like it does in their video. They've done an excellent job on the update and I can finally play it. It runs at about 30 fps with high resolution textures and real-time shadows and reflections. I hope they do this to their other games. But it's a seriously good job.
