I did update the Bootloader to 4.3. What I was reading indicated that I could not update the ROM/Kernel until I had updated the bootloader to the latest version. Best as I can figure out, there is either something in the background running hard (that isn't showing up) or there is something off with the CPU/voltages. I just don't know enough to know how to go about TS'ing the issue. Still seriously considering going back to 4.1.2 ROM and kernel. If I retore a Nandroid backup, it doesn't update the ROM/Bootloader/Kernel does it? I have to reflash those separately and then restore, correct?

Question, I used fastboot-mac to upgrade to 4.3 the other night.

I went through the Android Police thread, and it went well.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...-to-android-4-3-jwr66v-and-root-it-right-now/

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34552123&postcount=1&nocache=1&z=3092302661389112

I did NOT, however, Flash my data partition, as that was an option not to replace my data.

I got to the step where I flashed ParanoidAndroid 3.94 and then I was about to flash the Gapps, when I realized that I had no working copy of the 4.3 gapps.

SO, I flashed the latest 4.2 rom that I had, 3.8 or something like that, and flashed those gapps, and then downloaded the newest gapps, then reflashed 4.3

QUestions, then:

1. Should I redo it and flash my data partition, so that 4.3 runs better, etc, clean slate, etc?

2. Since I was trying to get my nexus UP to 4.3, would flashing the 4.2 PA ROM mess up my whole effort to upgrade to 4.3?

thanks.

Can someone point me to the direction of the download page for the latest stable? OP link seems to be dead.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] un4seen:
just a little rant:

Personally I can't live without the Theme Chooser. I spent a lot of time to make a theme that looks just the way I want it to, I despise the blue color and ineligible blue statusbar icons, invisible in sunlight, no battery percentage (the circle thing is so small you can't read the actual number) and so on.

Yes, i can achieve the same by editing the framework, a process that takes hours and has to be repeated after every update. Software methods like Xposed, metamorph and such are unreliable and I had nothing but frustration and problems with them, while the theme engine was flawless from my point of view.

I hate losing functionality that worked like it should and having to spend even more hours trying to work around it.

Well, that was the rant. Overall, I really appreciate the rom, all the work that went into it and all the developer time. It made my devices so much more useful, to the point where I wouldn't buy a device for which there is no PA available. For now I'll just stick to 3.67 or 3.54 (which worked best for me).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
Theme engine wasn't removed just because, it was removed because of issues with building on 4.3. PA said they might code there own at some point, but theme engine isn't coming back anytime soon.

I can't seem to flash the 4.3 gapps successfully using TWRP. Doesn't say much other than error flashing the zip. 3.65 flashed appropriately though.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:

That was it. Apparently the one on their server is corrupted. The one on goo.im worked!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adroidx:
guys, am I missing something? I don't see 3.95 on goo.im here:

http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/grouper

A few posts back mentioned obtaining 3.95 from goo.im which is why I am asking.

I downloaded the 3.95 build from a few posts back where someone had it on their G drive and it just bootloops on me.

I was running 3.94 just fine as of this morning after flashing to stock 4.3 then flashing ot 3.94. I bunged stuff up when trying out xlouder (not really ready for 4.3 yet) and my nandroid backup bootlooped on me. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong in TWRP. I've used CWMR exclusively until yesterday.

In my opinion, this thread is in a state of disarray due to disorganization. I hope things get back on track here because I don't think I could live with a non-PA N7!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] prestige777:
Xlouder works perfect actually.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
The last 4.2.2 build is the final one.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] prestige777:
A simple link to a archive of old builds, in a brand new thread would be better. To satisfy the tiny minority that still find a need for 4.2 etc.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] dictionary:
See I agree, but the server wasn't having issues way back when they first switched to .co. This isn't a recent thing, it's been ongoing. Everyone has their lives and I completely respect that. I encourage it actually. Updating the op to say the current build and where to get it (regardless of how the server is) is essential. When the server is back up then people will be going to the correct location. When they were using the other site before .co, I forget the name, it wasn't in the op either. Was a mess to direct new people who saw the title updated but with old links. I've seen Aaron post here after updates. I think most all of us are asking is if he could just spend 60 more seconds on his visit telling us of a new build, to update the ROM link in the op, and change thread title. I feel like even if they don't update the title, so long as the URL is solid, it will still be greatly beneficial. It isn't a lot of work, and I'm sure it would cut down on tons of very relevant posts asking about links. We come to XDA threads for a reason.

On the Nexus 4, 3.96 is using the JWR kernel in order to prevent deadlocks. How is this with Grouper 3.96?

Based on JWR just like the rest of PA. Grouper didn't have the deadlock issue with JSS.

Bootloader

Guys,

I have searched this thread and can't find the answer. Does the bootloader need updating when coming from PA 3.67 to 3.96 i.e. 4.2.2 to 4.3. When I updated to 4.3 on my N4 there was a bootloader.zip to download as well, so I suspect it does need updating?

If it does need updating does anyone have a link they could post?

Many thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
It will work without updating the bootloader. It's up to you whether you want to or not.

I noticed that I was not able to use hybrid properties. Some investigation leads to a missing ParanoidPreferences.apk in the zip.

After pushing it manually from the .95 build via adb it works as expected.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Remcotjuuh:
I used the official PA Gapps when I installed 3.95. When I updated to 3.96, I chose Banks's Gapps, but the weird thing was that most Gapps from Play, like Maps and Music, were installed after booting. I did perform a factory reset updating to 3.96.

Any thoughts?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
They must be included in the Bank's package... I'm not familiar with that gapps package.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Remcotjuuh:
This is the system/app directory, and none of them seem to be included here...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
You might not have erased the data partition when you did the factory reset. Check /data/app. If they're not there then I'm not sure.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ximmox:
Evan, do you by chance have any idea, why on the current and all previous 4.3 builds the deskclock is not shown in the launcher/seems not to be installed, even though deskclock.apk is in /system/app?

This is such a minor problem that I refused to wipe again because of this, but perhaps this might be the (only?) solution...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Remcotjuuh:
I installed all those apps myself.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
It's called Clock in the launcher. No problems here.

Well the gapps package must have included those apps. Your listing in system/app is incomplete. Open the gapps zip and see if those apps are there. I'm betting they are.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Remcotjuuh:
Sorry man, I extracted it and even the letters gm show nothing (looking for gmail of course). It's not that this issue really bothers me, it rather fascinates me :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
Well something's not adding up. Something is definitely up with the system/app folder, I think your file explorer has issues.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Remcotjuuh:
CM File Explorer shows the same
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ximmox:
Yeah, or "Uhr" on my german Nexus. Since it seems to be there for everyone else, I'll just have to fullwipe again on the weekend to see if that fixes it.

Thanks for your reply, I'm glad we have such an active maintainer now for the grouper, looking forward to the progress in the upcoming weeks. :)

How big is your PA zip?

Are you sure you didn't disable the app?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Remcotjuuh:
142 MB
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ximmox:
Yeah, 100 percent sure. It doesn't show up as installed or disabled under settings > apps or in TiBu, yet the file is in system/apps. Even removing it there and copying the file from the zip does nothing.

I just had the idea that perhaps restoring my alarms with TiBu, which failed on 3.91 and still fails now on 3.96 (TiBu backup folder is changed to the legacy path, but when restoring deskclock.apk TiBu hangs and has to be killed) might have screwed something up. Still a very strange behavior...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
Hmm well system/app should have 59 apks in it. I say reflash and use pa's gapps.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

Yeah go ahead and reflash. I don't think you need to factory reset.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] ximmox:
To wrap this up, reflashing doesn't work/fix this, but after a factory reset and clean flash the clock is (of course) there.

Just restored my nandroid for now, but I will set up a clean install tomorrow, can't stand the feeling that something on my systems is "wrong" even if it's that minor. :P

was to just reflash the rom. i just dirty flashed the rom i was using (ParanoidAndroid) with the stock kernel

and it worked again. even by flashing a kernel that has always worked with usb storage wouldn't get it going

again. a head scratcher for sure but fixable by reflashing.
