Google Now

Is Google Now working well for everyone? This is my first ROM flash and have been using it for just about 24 hours. And on the stock ROM, certain searches would trigger the Google Now functionality and show some of the "cards". But today, after searching for flights, weather, sports scores, etc....no cards showing up. I searched the thread, didn't get any hits. Is there a zip I need to flash, or something I need to enable?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Other than that, very nice and speedy. Used the Google Nexus Toolkit (v2.0) to unlock/root, and then flash.

EDIT: This is the version of gapps I flashed:

gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip

Working fine for me. In fact, the cards always show up even when I don't want to!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] redmonke255:
That's so annoying. Always tells me the weather. I get it, it's hot like always. Don't tell me every minute.

I've got a problem that appears to be idiosyncratic (ie. I caused it), but I can't find the culprit.

the problem is that the N7 seems to be running really heavy just at idle. It's buring battery faster than the USB can charge it and unless I throttle the CPU down, the temps rise to about 70-75C. If I change the governor to conservative or powersave it keeps the temps from going crazy, but the tablet becomes almost useless with the lag times. With Interactive governor, the cores and cpu speeds are almost locked to 1.3ghz and it's running around 80% of CPU capacity.

When I look in to what's running so much I can't really find anything abnormal. I thought it was Nova launcher and so I killed that and swapped over to Trebuchet, but that's just as bad.

I'm running 1.992 and haven't done anything to it from stock except from changing the kernel to see if that would change things. I've tried faux, Trinity, and motley. I've wiped data and installed again from scratch.

The weird part is that the settings and apps added to PA shouldn't be that much different than CM10, which I was running fine before I switched.

I'm going to try a new download and wipe everything again.

Any ideas? Thanks.

2.0 dropping today/tonight? :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] redmonke255:
Stop asking. It'll be here when it's here.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] G1_enthusiast:
yes it will definitely
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TahrirSquare:
You know that after 2.0 there will be a 2.1, 2.2 ... 3.0..etc. so are we going to keep bugging the developer like this with every release? I believe you asked bout this no less than 3 times in the last few days and the OP ignored your question. That should be a hint.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] lightninbug:
Sorrrrry my post was so offensive..it's the internet yo...if you don't like what u see...move on..bickering about my post will just start an unnecessary flame war...good day :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GeekMcLeod:
Asking for an ETA is not offensive, just annoying. The devs have never given a clear ETA when asked. Maybe some do, but I doubt it. It clutters the thread with pointless questions that will go unanswered or answered in a way the asker does not like. I hope they take my suggestion of pushing back the release a day for every time asked when it's coming. It'll be here when it's here.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] duloz:
The problem with giving ETAs on software development, etc. Is that those ETAs are quite frequently missed due to quality assurance issues, or the ETA is met, but the product is jam packed with bugs.

Look at video games for the first example, Microsoft windows for the second.

Ultimately, if you give specific ETAs as a developer, you end up publishing garbage, making people angry and losing users, or you miss implied deadlines, making people angry and losing users.

All that aside, Moles gave you all a vague ETA a few days back, saying 2.0 would be up in a few days. If it is not up, it is not ready because it does not yet meet quality standards established by the developers. It will come, and I for one am happier waiting on a finished product than to get stuck with something half baked because it was rushed in order to meet an ETA...

I put pa_grouper-1.992-24AUG2012-202431.zip and the appropriate gapps zipfile on my Nexus 7. Then I went to Quickboot and got into

TWRP recovery. I did a factory reset, a cache wipe and a dalvick cache wipe. But when I went to flash the ROM file from TWRP the only thing that happens is a message saying the tablet aborted flashing the ROM. I've rooted and flashed numerous ROMs for my Epic 4G Touch, Acer Iconia A500, and now my Google Nexus 7. I never thought I'd have a problem flashing a ROM on my Nexus 7. Can someone point me in the right direction? I'd really appreciate it ...:confused:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] redmonke255:
Or you can let the dev actually work instead of wasting his time, even if he's glancing at the post. It's incredibly disrespectful.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] brizey:
Sounds like a bad download. It happens. Try using the goo.im app, it automagically checks the MD5 for you. I use it whenever I can just for that.

(Of course, the chances of goo.im actually being up...)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jamesst20:
For a dev, it is pretty hard to give an ETA as coding takes a while and a fresh brain. Also, you never know when you can get stuck and stick on something, being a dev is learning all the time :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] djricekcn:
Thanks for this, I had no idea what to download on that page. Love you! not literally =P
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sgt. slaughter:
Lets cool it on the ETA related talk and asking when things are going to be released guys....the dev will let you know when they are ready, and it will be ready when it is....thus no need in asking repeatedly about it...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jay Aristide:
I know this post is adding to the clutter, but..

Two pages of 'don't ask for an ETA' every time someone asks for an ETA halfway defeats the purpose of the OP not answering ETA requests. Why don't we take a cue from moles and ignore these, ourselves?

Now, I promise you won't see another post from *me* about ETA's, be it asking for one or concerning someone else asking for one. Thread clutter is thread clutter. Hopefully moles will ask a mod to thin it out :)

Anxiously awaiting 2.0 and that slick-ass inverted PA settings page,

-Jay

Edit: Slaughter, you must have posted that as I wrote this
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nickster1:
Enough of all this ETA talk please. I really can't take it anymore lol. I love this ROM & this thread. Back on topic please.

Solution to aborting ROM during installation

molesarecoming,

I know this message is late, but did you ever find a solution to this problem? I too am having this problem a whole month later (Sept 4/5). I checked the MD5 signatures. They were fine - not corrupted or anything. My problem is recovery aborts installation of ROM after wipes. Hope you found a solution to this. I so much want to try this new ROM... :(
[Nexus 7 Original Development] drewski_1:
What recovery are you using? I've had issues with CWM Touch. Been using TWRP and it's been pretty solid.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] skribzy:
The problem I had and subsequently solved was entirely PICNIC (problem in chair, not in computer).

I was trying to flash the wrong zip. You need to flash the correct one for the Nexus7 which is called "grouper"

I was hoping I wouldn't have to share this magnificent fail on my part. I surprise myself with my stupidity sometimes.

An "ESTIMATE" would be nice is all...

An estimate on 2 would be nice... I'm running an older version and would like to upgrade to fix MMS and random rebooting, but if 2 is coming out in the next couple weeks I'll wait. If it's going to be 2 months, I might upgrade now and then again later... But then again, if an estimate is just simply not known, so be it.

Great ROM and much appreciated!!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dmmarck:
Why don't you just upgrade now then dirty the 2.0 release?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dougshepard:
What does "dirty" mean? I'm intrigued. Thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] p-slim:
You're able to flash without doing a full wipe, therefore you font have to set everything back up

Disregard, I'm and idiot. Chose the wrong bookmark and didn't realize I was on the Nexus 7 post versus the S3 post... :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] espionage724:
I typically don't dirty flash ever, since in most cases the developer clearly states if there are any issues, to do a full wipe anyway.

Not sure if there will be issues or not, but if there are issues, I'd rather they be shown from a clean wipe instead, instead of me reporting I did a dirty flash, and then being told to full wipe...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dmmarck:
I hear ya. If I dirty flash I don't report issues, simply because I'm not going to waste a dev's time when the issue is probably the user :).

It's a risk we all take, but so far the N7 has been pretty decent with DF'ing.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gbohm:
in most cases a dirty flash is useless if you just get a new version of the same rom

Have any of you guys tried to edit /system/addon.d/70_gapps.sh so gapps aren't deleted after an upgrade? Thats how stock CM is and i wonder if there is an explicit reason it isn't that way.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mstrk242:
Actually, if you're talking about flashing on top, the file responsible for backing up gapps is in the updater script. It's called backuptool.sh. And I've noticed it's been broken lately, on other roms that use it as well. Not a paranoid problem it's a cm problem.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bclark:
I don't think thats 100% accurate as backuptool.sh calls the addon.d file I spoke about and on both my phones and the n7 I have edited it for Cerberus and mms apk to not be deleted and neither are. Also if you look at the file from a full cm rom vs pa it is a whole lot longer.

Either way, unless it's stated to be a horrible idea I may test flash 1.992 over itself before 2.0 comes.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
i clearly state all the time how much i hate fullwipes :p i always dirtyflash - i just have no time to add my 10 mail accounts each and every time.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] molesarecoming:
could you test it and propose it on our gerrit?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bclark:
Absolutely, might take a day or two but I'll check it out
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bcvictory:
Might be a stupid question but can you switch between cm10 and pa without a full wipe? PA is based off CM10 right?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Its best to flash this ROM fresh then you can just dirty flash the updates

[Nexus 7 Original Development] tiny4579:
That file is supposed to be maintained by the gapps packagers. If gapps aren't being backed up and the ROM has the correct backuptool.sh then the fault is off the gapps build that's missing the 70_gapps.sh.

But why does pa need to have gapps reflashed across every build/phone? I use the same gapps package on my s3 for both cm and pa yet it is backed up in cm and not here. The same goes for bamf and pa iirc (not 100% sure haven't left pa in a while)

seeking help

kinda noob here, thought i was doing ok however, i was able to unlock and root. my probs start when trying to install CWM i seemed to be able to flash it through command prmpt, but when i try to move "recovery from boot.p recovery from bak" it shows no such file or directory? thru a lil research i find i could install through ROM manager app so i do that "flash clockwork mod recovery" and it seemed to work, after i reboot into recovery and it brings me to CMD, not touch one which i thought i flashed? anyway i then put gapps and grouper zip on nexus and hit reboot into recvry from rom manager and i get android laying down w/ red exclamation point??? after lil bit it reboots itself and all is good, runs smooth. im guessing somehow CMD didnt flash? sorry for long winded babble here but i figured this is the rom i want to install (after lookig at a bunch of others) and not sure really where to turn. thanks in advance any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] drewski_1:
no issue with the bottom right dock.

i see someone saying they had this, but was resolved. 1.992 was the first PA so can't say if this was an issue previously.

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

android laying down is stock recovery. the stock ROM will overwrite your just installed custom recovery, if steps aren't taken to prevent it.

after flashing custom (and I recommend TWRP over CWM Touch (which you can flash via GooManager)) you should reboot directly into recovery and then either flash a custom ROM or rename (or delete) this file:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh​

this is what will re-install stock recovery over your custom, if it exists when you reboot into system.

Alright, good to know. I actually did figure it out, had to do with the number of rows and columns on the home screen. When I changed it from the default setting thats when the problem occurred.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] drewski_1:
Did you delete the file in Recovery? If from a system file explorer I think it's too late

You can install one recovery on top of another.

Try this

- install GooManager from Play store

- launch Goo

- select from menu "install open recovery script"

- click OK until you select TWRP 2.2.2.0 and then install

- select from menu to Reboot to Recovery

- should reboot into TWRP?

- use TWRP File Manager to delete the script I referenced above

- reboot to system

- or in recovery flash new custom rom

I agree and I'm slowly figuring out how to do this. I've got the buttons and clock flipped along with the lights out mode buttons, but the Google Now pull up circle is still on the left and the notifications still pop up on the right (over the navigation buttons). Probably another apk or framework file needs modification. Any ideas? I've only been messing around with SystemUI.apk thus far. I must say it is easier to use as a right hander, at least with small hands like me :o . Hope to get it sorted because it seems useful.

Bluetooth tethering

Hi,

I use latest PA on stock kernel and I can't use bluetooth tethering. Pairing works but I cannot actually connect. I thought that was an issue with my phone but I tried with 3 different phones and same result.

I can receive files though.

I tried motley's kernel, same...

Anyone experiencing this? Is it possibly related to a hardware issue? How would I do to know that?

Thanks

Edit: Nevermind it works now, not sure what is the cause...

Fair enough, just that I saw other devices on 2.0 and the main website with 2.0 on the front Page etc.... Little disappointed when I saw no grouper 2.0

I have only just moved from CM10 nightly to PA 2 days ago.

1.992 is great and I loving tableUI but stock browser is poor and locks up all the time. Hopefully browser will be more stable in next release. Using chrome for now and stock browser when I need Flash support.

If you find the stock browser better in CM10, you can always just pull out the apk and push it to your system/app folder. If you do that, don;t forget to correct the permissions and clear the data from the app before you launch it the first time.

Discard wrong thread
[Nexus 7 Original Development] smelkus:
You use apktool to decompile SystemUI.apk. Edit system_bar.xml, system_bar_notification_panel.xml, and system_bar_notification_area.xml. Then rebuild, adb push, set permissions and reboot. It's not fit for broad consumption as-is though, because the notifications still come up on the right. So, let's say you want to hit 'Home,' but Goo Manager wants to psyche you out for the billionth time that there is a new PA update. So you have to wait for that to clear before being able to use the navi buttons again. I've never really dealt with these soft keys until now coming from the EVO 4G, but I think it would be great to have this control in PA since it really takes the N7 to its fullest potential with PA settings.

I don't want to veer the thread off course or take away from those ETA seekers (seriously people, enough of that. You know who you are!!). @molesarecoming, do you have any desire to see this in PA? It's probably more of a personal preference/ergonomics/hand-size thing, but if you had right navi buttons, a fly grip, PA and an N7 you could take over the world. Or at least fly through Twitter quickly... but then you'd have a fly grip on your sweet tablet. I'll go play in the corner. :silly:
