OK so it seems some of you would like a status update its not a problem..

I have been tweaking and removing identical tweaks that go across the rom, thanks to noodles2k for pointing some out

I went though every script making sure there wasn't any multiple tweaks and it took a while upon completing these i passed a beta on to MoonDogg98 and it turns out that the i/o dropped greatly so i passed the fix on and we are now testing, i have been using the beta for about 3 days and so far iv'e only had one issue the nav bar in landscape mode (but that's nothing new).

If you would like to test just PM me and i will forward the link and the fix for the i/o

Now due to circumstances, as you can imagine testing takes a while due to other priority's

There has been a great lot of additions in this version so as for an ETA there isn't one due to the amount of options added

Also for those interested and have a HTC ONE X i have thought about creating Kaos Droid for that as well there are no eta's and nothing confirmed as of yet its just an idea but i will give it a go after the next release. not sure if its going to be HTC Sense or cm based atm, any thought PM me
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MoonDogg98:
So I will follow up on this since I am beta testing it.. I have had it installed for a few days.. and it has been working great since the I/O fix.. I have not noticed any major issue at all with any of the apps I use. If you want to know if something particular works or not but don't want to Beta test it... let me know and I will attempt to replicate your request the best I can and report back.

I am currently using APEX launcher, motley kernel #219, Tablet status bar but not full tablet UI, and Chrome for my browser.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tristate:
Where can i DL the beta? I have some problems with the navbar and wakeup (sound). But anyway good Rom!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MoonDogg98:
PM Omega Kaos for the link.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
Just to let everyone know the beta is running the latest Apex Launcher with no issues live the previous version

also Firefox also works fine with beta but only the Beta version of Firefox the Stable one will not work correctly

EDIT for those that are testing Tablet UI option is located under Settings->System->Status Bar

also by default Browser.apk, and Trebuchet.apk is included even if you did not select them i just forgot to remove them

And HTMLViewer.apk and SoundRecorder.apk is in there as well these will not be included upon release
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
Nova Launcher Prime is currently 25p/25¢ definitely worth getting if you use Nova.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TinyRK:
Holy ****balls...

Was debating if I should buy it yesterday.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mindstate:
In the settings menu its just one column for me, so i guess i am not using tablet ui. do i need to turn it on?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
You don't need to turn it on but if you want to the only way to do it ATM is to re-flash and select table ui in aroma
[Nexus 7 Android Development] scarygood536:
Wow leave for a month or so and come back to this?! This thing has grown exponentially! I love it, great work! I have a big update to do. Thanks for your awesome support. Would love to download 3.8 when it comes out .
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TinyRK:
I don't know if it is me, my screen-protector or something else,

but when I select CWM in AROMA it still flashes TWRP.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] scarygood536:
I was just logging on to post about this. I have the same outcome.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ptesmoke:
Sounds like a feature not a flaw :D
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bobjbain:
If you're already in recovery flashing the ROM why do you need to flash recovery again??
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TinyRK:
That's not the point.

But imagine I want to flash my ROMs through ROM Manager...

Why have ten beers on the menus when you only serve Miller lite?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bobjbain:
I don't quite get what your alluding to to be honest.

I've always thought that the recovery options were a bit "extra to needs" if you like.

I've also noticed that other things that I've requested not to be installed have been installed, like BBQLog
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TinyRK:
CWM was also just an example. Same happened when I deselected Titanium Backup: it still got installed.

The point just is: if I select something, me thinks it gets installed, and not something different.

I get your point though, but if I prefer CWM and select it, because I like using it with ROM Manager, I want it to be flashed.

With TWRP I can't flash and backup with ROM Manager, well, pre-select it while running the ROM until it reboots.

Even if you pick "Leave Recovery as is" in Aroma it flashes TWRP.

All I wanted was a confirmation if I am the only one, or if it is a bug, or my cheap sketchy screen-protector.

No need for discussion why want to flash a different recovery even though I am in recovery-mode. :)

PS.: Need more coffee:too early here.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
I always have problems using Aroma too, and I have no screen protector. What happens is that when I press Next, my choices get deselected, and I have to try many times before I can get it to work. Sometimes I give up, for instance I installed Apex even though I wanted Nova, and got Nova from the Playstore afterwards. I have also had the situation where Back is greyed out, so I could not go back to try again inputting my choices. Short story, it's not just you. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
Aroma is not brilliant with the nexus touchscreen I have noticed issues when selecting recovery and if I haven't done it already that option is getting removed

As for titanium backup not getting removed it was because when I updated the app I never renamed it again its fixed in the next version

If your having issues with selecting options in aroma then use the volume keys no navigate and the power button to select

I hope this helps
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veeman:
Volume buttons to move and power button to select.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TinyRK:
So here we go:

now we know why TB did get installed, and I know now, that AROMA and N7 don't play well together.

And I also leaned, that I can use the Vol-Buttons in TWRP.

Thanks and keep up the good work!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] scarygood536:
Because it has been a while since I flashed anything. I was hoping the latest version was included so everything was up-to-date
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
CWM hasn't been updated in quite a while.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
Does anyone else have an issue with sound on Kaos? I saw that someone in another thread, using Kaos 3.7.3, has the same problem as me. Wondering if it is a ROM issue now. I'm on version 3.8 beta.Basically, once or twice a day the sound stops working and we have to reboot the device to get it working again. Thanks for any help!:)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
I had this once, installing the JRO03R binary drivers seems to have fixed it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bobjbain:
He's on 3.8 Beta which, IIRC, is based on JR003R and already has the new binaries....
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
So am I :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Cetin:
I cannot touch nav buttons in landscape mode. When I touch instead of them shown in the center of the screen then it's working somehow but the showed ones not working.

Look here

Good Rom / Good Dev :)

One Question :

Is it possible to enable/disable 'TableUI' with Change in Build.prob ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] fauz33:
anyone can play 720p movie with mkv format?

which video player do you use?

Im using mx player. can play the movie but with no sound.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bobjbain:
Wipe Data for the 'System UI 4.1.1' using Titanium backup...

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 PM ----------

When playing the movie have you tried changing the Sound Decoder to software (I think) rather than hardware!!

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ----------

Have you tried changing the DPI to 160 and rebooting??
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nexus7owner:
Yeah some reason my sound keeps not working and I have to reboot sometimes then it works again, also navigation buttons also like to disappear something all of them sometime 1 out of 3 goes and in landscape mode they aren't positioned right...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
I don't think that'll work. The tabletui has different framework files (services.jar and android.policy.jar), and may not work without them.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bobjbain:
Oh it goes into tablet mode alright, it just looks like a crock of ****e....
[Nexus 7 Android Development] yabbandroid:
I dont know what I did wrong, I flashed this rom, before I wiped everything with TWRP.. Cache, Dalvik, System.. i tried two times already, the first time i chose different kernel and themes in aroma, didnt boot up,, first google logo then cyanogenmod logo keeps there for ever.. now the second time i take all the preconfigurations made in aroma and try it but same result.. im desperate :( its the first time i wanted to try to install a custom rom on my nexus i thought it shouldnt be harder than on my mobile and now im in a bootloop ^^

edit: version 3.7.3

any sense in trying a previous version? i tried to read as much as i could in this thread but so far i havent founjd anyone with booting issues.. am i the only one ? then what did i possibly do wrong?

when i restore stock with the nexus toolkit after each bootloop experienced after flashing the rom, it says: archive does not contain boot.sig recovery.sig system.sig

does that mean the flashing didnt quite work out ?=

edit: do i have to flash it with CWM ? i only have TWRP installed cause its what the nexus rootkit typically pushes onto it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] $wissdroid:
Ok then its not possible with the Build.prob .

Then it just works with flash the Rom again or Replace this two Files manually. Thanks for response :good:

Edit:

@ Omega Kaos

Can you Please Fix Ultimate Custom Clock Widget ? FC evertime :(

And i had also the goo.im update issue (see screenshots)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
For now you could use v2.06 - I know it's old, but it works. You'll need to clear data for and uninstall the installed version first, otherwise it'll fc too.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
I use UCCW and have no problems with fcs or anything. Works great...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] snarf1974:
Not saying that you did not follow instructions but make sure you wipe the data in recovery before flashing the rom ... I always wipe the Dalvik cache and normal cache too ... even though you don't have to ... you might have residual data in the Android folders
[Nexus 7 Android Development] yabbandroid:
I wiped everything (with TWRP). [Even though Aroma itself also wipes another time before it gets into action]

So it should work with TWRP? There are people who flashed this ROM without any issues using TWRP?

I really want to install this Rom, I'm sad. Now I flashed Paranoidandroid but I dont need all the tablet functionality. I want Kaos :(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
I always flash this ROM with TWRP without any issues. I just do a factory reset and wipe both caches when I install a new ROM. That's it.

And yes, it's a great ROM!;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] yabbandroid:
OK, thank you. I will try another time with TWRP. So far I didnt hit factory reset cause I thought what factory reset does is wipe /system and sdcard files or I dont remember the options there were in TWRP. So I did all the wipes manually and left out factory reset. My hope is now that something was missing that way maybe.. (I'm coming from CWM where it's just wipe data, TWRP UI was all new to me)

And another question, when the installation is completed with Aroma and it asks for reboot. Do you immediately plug out the USB cable or do you leave it in until it's (safely) booted for the first time.. I tried both methods so far and none worked^^

ok i hope now it will work !:angel:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
Let's hope it works!:fingers-crossed:

Regarding your last question, I am not sure what to answer. I never use a USB cable when flashing a ROM.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] snarf1974:
Another little thing I do is make a back up of your android folder with all the .Com folders you need for your games ( do not copy the google folders ... gallery 3d etc ) just your games so that you do not have to download them again..

then while the nexus 7 is connected to your pc with the usb cable ... delete all the folders everything ... and just leave the rom zip file .. now hold down power and reboot into recovery .. in clockwork recovery press on option 3 wipe data/factory reset ... then wipe cache .. wipe dalvik cache.. (you dont really need to delete these but just to make sure ....

then press on instal zip from sd card and choose the zip..

I install the motley rom and leave everything else as is ..

I hope this helps ...as I have had this issue in the past when I left old data from the android folder on the device ... another thing to remmenber is that the first time you reboot after instal ... the unit can sit on the google screen for a while ( dont worry) and can hang after the initial boot screen (black screen after the animation) ... just leave it to do its stuff ... and remember to reboot the device one more time once you have configured it on the google account ..

I hope this helps you

---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

you only need the usb cable connected to get into recovery ... after that you can remove it ..
[Nexus 7 Android Development] yabbandroid:
guys, it worked, thank you very much ! I did it just the usual way through TWRP but this time I hit factory reset, it's really the only thing I did different. I'm a bit ashamed, I thought it was a redundancy within TWRP or rather well that it did 2 in one.. but maybe it did something special. Anyway it booted just fine, I used the faux kernel the first time today, I was very happy but I got some sound issues (when I unlock the device out of deep sleep I hear a bad sound and then the sound drivers seem to be restarted because I dont have sound for some time (2minutes maybe..)) then the sound comes back, but I thought it was annoying, and I wanted to try the motley kernel anyway :) I read it runs the best.. well who knows..

as for the USB cable yeah, its like snarf says, I had to stick it in to get from the fastload into recovery.. but it seems when you already run a custom rom you can just click boot into recovery and it is not needed. thanks !!

yeah, i was also thinking that maybe i didnt give it enough time to reboot the first times.. but i think not.. i saw the cyanogenmod logo for several minutes, it was quite unusual.. but i have one question, why do i have to reboot the device once more after i configure the google account? do you mean to set permissions in the recovery ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
Sorry I haven't been on the forum much been having a break lol but the new release will be out once the gallery and camera is fixed it shouldn't be too long also I'm going to update to later nightly from CM but that will take roughly 24 inc the build as I'm back to my s**try laptop with 2 GB ram and dual core @ 1.5 GHZ but I'll try my best to get this out asap
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
Hope you had a good break! :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] akarol:
Is this thread done? So empty lately. Btw, my notification bar shifted to the left again. Didn't install anything new. Just the newest Nova Launcher betas.

Sent from my amazing Galaxy Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
No its not done :) Im just working on beta for now, in regards to the notification bar shifting to the left i haven't experienced it in the beta, however the icons on the nav bar have not displayed once but a quick rotation solved that issue, assuming all goes well on this build (currently compiling) it will be uploaded at some point tomorrow :)

Then the thread will most likely pick up again lol
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rebel1699:
Can you divulge on which base you are using for the update? The new 4.1.2 possibly? Btw, this rom has been wonderful.

Nexus 7 on AOKP by R4ins
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
It is based on 4.1.2, im just hoping that all the additions i added in this version still works with 4.1.2 im just waiting on compiler to find out, fingers crossed
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rebel1699:
Great news man! I look forward to the new update. I just installed 4.1.2 to check it out. Be great to be able to access custom recovery from bootloader while on kaos. I only worry that the available custom kernels wont work on 4.1.2 without modification.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
Well the build will be delayed as it can't seem to get pass the symlink for libwebcore.so it was on that frem 02:00 to 09:00 before i turned it off, i am not sure weather the custom kernels will work but i will let you know when its built and flashed
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rebel1699:
None of the 4.1.1 kernels will work on 4.1.2. So far, only Franco has updated his custom kernel for 4.1.2 compatibility. I would imagine the rest of the kernel devs are going to quickly follow suit.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
Motley's kernel works. Probably means Clemsyn's does too.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nexus7owner:
I use clemsyn kernel but if I set the max CPU to 1.8 it keeps resetting back to 1.3 when I put my tablet to standby mode
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tevinwade:
Navigation bar keeps shifting to the left. The button work as if they are in their original positions. I also had it set to standard in Aroma, but it came out with the lower DPI.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] akarol:
See! I knew it wasn't only me.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
I am just testing the beta and will be updating the beta to 4.1.2 shortly and so far the landscape buttons are fine.

however I cannot speak for the other beta testers so you'll have to ask them there is a list of beta testers in ports 1 of this thread

EDIT: the DPI change wasen't written in.7.3 aroma missing a parameter but it is fixed for the next version, sorry about this
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lightninbug:
Awesome can't wait man!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
OK does anyone actually use VoIP or the dialler in this ROM, if not its getting removed, simple reason we have got a slider for in-call volume, also its not really a phone plus last time i checked you can achieve VoIP with a few apps (which need to be downloaded in addition to having the call function enabled).

Correct me if i'm wrong but telephony (aka call support) does not need to be enabled to get VoIP otherwise how is it possible on a PC without this function

Yeah i suppose the call function would come in handy if you add a 3G dongle, but apart from that i think it seems pretty redundant

Reason for this is some people want it others don't - issue here is the framework as you have noticed upon flashing you have a selection for normal nav bar size and lowered size which is 2 different framework-res.apk's in the aroma installer, now lets say i don't want call support i would have to create a new framework-res.apk to remove this (flashable in aroma)

Which in turn as of the many mods in 3.8.0 beta its a pain, atm i have these following selection options in aroma each containing a different framework-res.apk

Standard Nav and Previews

Standard Nav and Large Previews

Small Nav and Previews

Small Nav and Large Previews

now if i want do have the option to remove call support that would equal 8 variations of framework-res.apk according to the selections above one of each selection with and without call support

Let me know what you think otherwise it will be removed form the next version and onwards
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lightninbug:
remove please...i have a phone to make calls :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
same here plus i don't really want to look like a d**k when holding a 7" tablet to my ear lol
[Nexus 7 Android Development] $wissdroid:
+ 1

;) I dont Need a 'Samsung Galaxy Note VI' :D
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MoonDogg98:
+1 kill the phone option. ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Gibsonflyingv:
+4, no need for it. When you included it, I was like... cool, but I'll never use it! Then I saw the extra volume slider and it made me sad.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
I don't use the tablet as a phone either!:)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
consider it gone, i actually removed it before anyone replyed assuming the majority vode would be get rid of it :p

as for the beta it is still compiling :( (4hrs so far)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dakki12345:
i installed the rom.. at first it boot. but the settings is FC.. now i tried to reboot it.. but it bootloops.. and i cant even access recovery.. so any ideas kaos??
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
befor flashing did you do a factory reset, and wipe /system /data and /cache through recovery ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TjPhysicist:
I'm the one who originally requested call support. And it's been working on and off (i've had to do the framework edit manually). So yea it'd be perfectly fine for you to remove it I guess. last i checked was 3.7.2 and without any manual changes phone app was non existent.

I think you could basically get VoiP without phone apk, but the issue is that people app would not have clickable phone numbers, but again, small change on my part...

---------- Post added at 08:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 AM ----------

actually i use the calling app to enable clickable phone numbers in the people app (otherwise numbers cannot be clicked) and use google voice callback to call my phone. That way, i can carry around a dumb phone...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rebel1699:
The only thing that bothered me about the dialer being included was that the default volume controlled by the side buttons was ringer, unless i was in a media app. That was a bit annoying.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] opz187:
Has this been fully updated to 4.1.2
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
sorry if i offended you, i hadn't realised that you needed the call support function to click on phone numbers

it has but with some of the new customisations i have added some items conflict which i am currently fixing now :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] aLPaSLaN07:
Does this rom include Sony Bravia Engine? I don't like the grayscale of stock rom since small fonts , black coloured text's on a white background looks awful. With bravia engine (happens to be in Glazed Rom) texts are much sharp..
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
it does include the bravia engine :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] aLPaSLaN07:
Aah great then.. Are we getting 4.1.2 update soon?

Btw I know this is off topic but, do custom kernels effected by OS version? I mean kernels out there , can they be used with 4.1.2?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Omega Kaos:
the 4.1.2 is currently compiling and not all custom kernels will work you would have to check the kernel thread at this moment in time as i haven't compiled 4.1.2 yet
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tc4101:
hey is the here anyway to make the bottom menu button back to standard size?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] noodles2k:
Yeah, there's an option for it during setup. You can also extract the framework-res.apk file from /extra/modifications/navbarstd/ in the kaos droid zip, and and put it in /system/framework.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TjPhysicist:
offended? nah. Either way, it takes me 2 minutes to put that in after i download rom.
