Its pimped... You should check my site :highfive:

IM doing it exclusively on "another" forum right now to try and help a buddy build a bigger user base so its not on XDA. But yeah, I got you covered... Trust me :good:

I'll prolly bring it to XDA late next week. Gonna trick it out harder...

I would not flash it on any ROM other than stock or something based on stock with no SysUI mods.

IM really shocked no one did this. Only took 5 seconds... I went looking for it myself and was like :confused: Ok.... lol

as for as the OTA... We have to see what it brings but more than likely it would make it obsolete. You can rest assured I keep all my ROMS and mods up to date as as soon as I got my hands on it I would update the mod / ROMS.

Yep!

I make make a flasher that kills SysUI.odex next time. Didint think a lot of people would use this on a Stock ROM but now I know so I can make it work for more people with less hassle. Easy to do this!

Thanks guys for all the feedback!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Cybermancer:
Great! I'm glad you got it working!

Sweet. Thanks for the quick reply. I'll definitely check back in this thread once we're getting a new OTA. :D

That's a great idea, scrosler! Thanks, and thanks again for this great mod! :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
Just registered, finally. See you over there.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] lammy29:
Thanks, worked like charm!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Wolf3235:
Hey Scrosler, I am not sure what I am doing wrong but whenever I use ES file explorer to search for the SystemUI.odex I can only find SystemUI.apk in that folder. I've tried deleting that APK then flashing the zip but whenever I do the battery percent works but then my notification time is all screwed up. For example the time at the top right reads "%22:%8". Any thoughts??
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Scott:
What ROM are you on? You may already be Odex.

If your getting incorrect clock then you may not be on the right base either?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] rpenkar:
Works perfectly over here! Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] kiewee3:
Is there any way to unflash this? I flashed (forgot to make a backup) and now my landscape home/back/recent apps buttons aren't there.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] leelaa:
Does anyone know where i can get a text only battery mod? Like aokp have. I am on clean rom and absolutely love it.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Scott:
Nope, flash the ROM you have again.

I could prolly do that. If you can show me the mod or ROM that has the battery you like, at this point, its just a matter of kanging the png files.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] leelaa:
If i post the lnk to the aokp nighty? I aint running it at thm moment as i am running you're beast :) maybe i could find a picture of it.

Hi,

I modified it to make the values of the battery percentage better readable. I am not completely happy with the height, but it's ok.

It's for stock rom deodexed, same as yours.

Edit: Improved the height. (SystemUI_new.apk)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] mon124:
Can you make the icons a bit smaller?

Thanks so much :D

But the battery icons seem to be a bit bigger than others

It'll be great if you could make the icons a bit smaller (i thinh 36x36 is enough), can you?

Thanks again :victory:
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] wantabe:
Scrosler, is there any chance I can talk you into making a new version for JRO03S. Tried using your SystemUI.apk with JRO03S and needless to say it didn't work and I went back to JRO03D. Definitely would be willing to donate to your beer fund. ;) I like staying with a mostly stock rom but not seeing a battery mod on any of my devices just doesn't look right! :laugh:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
So... I have a Nexus S And it was fine, Rooted, had Cynogen mod 9 everything was glorious.

Then Jellybean came out. before it was released on my phone with my carrier (Mobilicity, Vancouver), I got a nightly, of Cynogen, Jellybean. Bit laggy. Stock was released the next day. So I reverted to a back up file of Stock (gingerbread) then did the Google update from the device until I had jellybean. It was fine for a while, initially put on all my music... Etc.

Now i plug it in to my computer. it says USB device not recognized. tried uninstalling drivers, it says the drivers did not install properly. Tried manual install, it says i already have the best drivers. tried turning off device, and on, same, tried using on a friends computer, same thing.

Then I tried booting in bootloader (Which it still didnt mount although it said usb init ended) and tried going in to Recovery (maybe i could go back to the stock gingerbread. all I got was the little green android man with the red triangle exclamation point thing. tried resetting phone, same stuff.

Any help would be appreciated. all the places I looked i couldnt find anything.

Nexus S is meant to be rooted. I am literally STUCK on Jellybean stock, Unrooted.

Please Help!!!!! I have no developer powers (plus, I tried clicking USB debugging on/off)

Anyway to mount via command prompt or something?:crying:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivasrage:
First of all look for drivers u can try this:

http://junefabrics.com/android/download.php

When the drivers are installed, flash cmw recovery image via fastboot, then install the simple root zip in cmw.

You have jelly bean and you are rooted.

Also you can restore your backup....or flash any other ROM..

:)

root.zip:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
Well, actually I already tried reinstalling drivers. Think it's a problem with my device, as it won't work on another computer as well. My phone was rooted, but when I did stock update I lost root and cwm. Everything is stock. I'm not sure what fastboot is or how to get in to it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivasrage:
OK i don´t think its a hardware/device problem....you could fix it yourself for sure...but its some work to do...

the question is would you like to do this ?

http://dottech.org/tipsntricks/2153...ows-computer-for-use-with-your-android-phone/

read this ...install it....http://dottech.org/downloads/adb_fastboot_and_other_tools.zip

and then flash a clean jelly bean image, then cmw, then root if you have any question i´l help you if you want...

S.R.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
Hmm I'll try it. It does say that it has an error for installing the drivers. Then when I try to install manually it says I currently have the best drivers for the device 'unknown'
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
Also, where would I find a fresh jellybean image. How can I get cm on it
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivasrage:
Her is a link for the JB images from google:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
Ok, well, I tried opening it up via command Prompt. It still doesnt recognize my phone is even hooked up. I tried manually installing the drivers, using have disk, and it said i should make sure those drivers are compatable for a 64 bit computer (which they ARE, because they were the ones I used before. Essentially, My issue is this. when i hook up my android device, when I go to (on my computer) Start> computer>Manage> Device manager... I should see android Device, Instead I see... Unknown device. I cant enter my phone via command prompt or anything. Its literally like my phone is only charging and not connected in anyway to my computer. This... really... sucks.... this is almost how i first rooted my phone. Except, then it worked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
Dont know if this is relevant, but in my bootloader it says at the bottom USB control Init and right underneath on the bottom left it says... USB control init End
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivasrage:
Last thing you can try....

http://hotfile.com/dl/142977444/8d38a89/Downloader_v1.81.rar.html

download this....then push vol- and vol+ and power together then you are entering download mode....

run odin exe (the other file you can erase)....connect your phone to your pc then ...

if you had right connection a yellow sign appears at left side of the window...please report
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusroks:
So I tried.

Maybe Im retarded. Not sure when i push the volume up plus Vol Down key. In the bootloader? before i turn on phone, On the home screen?

Anyways. Tried it while on, the phone registered me as pressing the volume keys and thats it, not the power key, not much happened. all that happened is the smae thing, it said USB device not recognized. which sucks.

[Nexus 7 General] wl030827:
Hey guys,I'm a nexus 7 user from China.

I have solved the screen flicker problem.

Just put a piece of scotch tape on the GND point of WIFI antenna.It does not influence the signal strength.
[Nexus 7 General] tylerwatt12:
Not gonna do that. By not connecting a ground you could run into some other serious problems later on. Excessive WiFi chip heat and possibly other issues
[Nexus 7 General] wl030827:
Won't be.I have studied the wifi antenna for several years.Wifi antenna has many types,some of them like omnidirectional antenna,it‘s RF line and GND is not connected.
[Nexus 7 General] Remoteconcern:
I've just done this. So far, wifi strength fine and there is definitely less flicker.

However, this its light outside and it's much easier to see the flicker when it's dark, so I'll let you know.

Thanks for the idea, and hopefully this works!
[Nexus 7 General] afrojoc:
I'd definitely this if I was more confident in opening my device
[Nexus 7 General] bkmaracas:

[Nexus 7 General] ThePerson98:
So this makes me wonder if the common issues could perhaps be with the back of the device. I've seen people with screen warping issues caused by a warped back, and now there's a fix for flickering by modifying the back.

I'm sort of curious to see what switching the back of a flawless device with a device with flickering does.

Edit: I also remember someone saying awhile back that they pushed on a certain part of their device to make the flickering disappear, which makes me even more curious if it's something to do with the back..

Another edit: The device would not flicker when the back was completely removed. Obviously, without the antenna, the signal was very weak, but the flickering would disappear. As soon as I placed the back on again, the flickering returned.
[Nexus 7 General] kenyee:
Only engineering theory is the antenna is moving the voltage for ground w/ the power surges when it uses full wifi power and this is affecting the ground level for the rest of the tablet including the backlight. By putting the tape there, you're preventing the wifi antenna from affecting ground level, though I don't understand why it doesn't affect wifi power (I'd think that by doing this, you're lowering the transmitting power of the wifi antenna).

Any other EE's confirm this might be what's happening?

Interesting workaround at least...it's basically a hardware version of the software workaround I theorized was possible if they could control the power transmission level of the wifi chip/antenna...

I decided to go ahead and get a replacement... Call time 3:14 no joke. Super impressed with the service and the process.
[Nexus 7 General] e.mote:
Not sure what you're talking about in "disconnecting ground," but the ground plane is pretty important for PFA antenna design. (I'm assuming that's what the N7 has, as there still isn't a good photo of the ants themselves in any of the teardowns.)

BTW, funny, but I made that very same antenna in your pic, along with the PVC pipe cover. Didn't work too well as an omni. I soon ditched the DIY route when I found surplus WISP ants to be much more effective, and less hassle.

BTW, a good read for wifi design is "Antenna Design for Mobile Devices (Wiley 2011)."
[Nexus 7 General] ThePerson98:
I'm going ahead and doing the same. It does look like modifying the back cover will fix the flickering issues, but after reading a bit on how the ground effects antenna performance, I'm a bit wary about it in the long term. It'd be one thing to just tighten a screw, but to disconnect a wire with a function isn't okay to me.
[Nexus 7 General] e.mote:
I've pasted some pages out of the abovementioned wifi design text on the effects of ground plane on mobile antennas. It's probably too technical for many, but you can get the gist, which is that the ground plane is a "big deal" in antenna performance.
[Nexus 7 General] wl030827:
My English is bad so I had to rely on Google Translate to read what you said.

Scotch tape is used to cut off the wifi RF and motherboard GND.Because I think that the RF interference to the overall ground level value.

# 15 is right.
[Nexus 7 General] wl030827:
a piece of clear scotch tape is used for insulation,you can even use a piece of paper,cover the GND of the wifi antenna，not RF
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
I never had any wifi issue and flickering. The WiFi strength is rock solid for me.
[Nexus 7 General] CasualStarlord:
Okay, 2 things.

1. I've always noticed the nexus 7 has kinda lousy wifi signal compared to other devices I have like my phone and my netbook.

2. I just popped it open and covered this contact with tape, and my flickering problem is GONE, my wifi signal has not been affected

so... wifi arial problem in the back cover perhaps, perhaps this is some kind of short affecting the light sensor or something making it flicker?
[Nexus 7 General] oldblue910:
I can also confirm that the scotch tape (over the top connector only) fixed the screen flicker for me. Thanks to the OP for this awesomely simple fix!
[Nexus 7 General] Myrriad:
Would it be better to use scotch tape or electrical tape, or would it not matter? Want to try this on my tab too.
[Nexus 7 General] wl030827:
No matter,just for disconnect.
[Nexus 7 General] plambda:
Didn't work.
[Nexus 7 General] kalinf:
Worked for me. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 General] mi7chy:
As mentioned before it's probably an electrical short of the WIFI antenna contacts to the back cover which is grounded via ground contacts. Someone with the flicker issue try covering the areas around the WIFI copper pads inside the back cover.
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
I just tried the fix. I can't tell if its still flickering or if my hands are just too shaky when holding the device.

Edit: Did not work. Still flickers.
[Nexus 7 General] JohnnyHempseed:
Thanks for this fix!
[Nexus 7 General] potentiality:
Yes, I'm going to have to show my weariness at this fix as well. The post about redoubling the coverage around the antennas having the same effect seems more safe if not as easy. However I should point out the flicker does not always rely on the WiFi. I have had screen flickering happen with the WiFi off and no net program in the background watching videos locally.
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
Would covering the other connector have an effect on performance?
[Nexus 7 General] odayfans:
I just tried this fix, and the issue has completely gone, I used Wifi analyzer to meter the Wifi signal before and after applying the fix, I did't notice any difference, it works well.
[Nexus 7 General] Metallice:
Has anyone tried this?
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
Sorry to be a pest, but just to make sure, is that clear tape simply stuck on top of that metal piece? It's hard to tell from the pic, it doesn't go in between the metal tab right? It's just stuck on top?
[Nexus 7 General] asdfbat:
Went ahead and tried it on 2 devices, both with flicker. Did not work on either.

I give up. Been through 5 of these things. I'll just get a refund now.
[Nexus 7 General] mrlj86:
Thank you very much OP..... I really appreciate the find.

I received my first N7 back in July and it flickered. Google CS assured me that only 1% of the first run devices had this problem and it has been revised.

I got the replacement on Aug 1st and it flickered worse than the first.... I refused to send it back as this replacement had a much louder speaker than the last one and I couldn't bother wiping/locking/DPI etc.

Tried the fix last night and it worked beautifully!!!! The flicker has been eliminated. I did notice that the antenna has continuity between to contacts so I guess that really is the site of the short.

I would suggest to those who tried but were not successful, to place the tape just beyond where the impression of the pin ends..... just to make sure your aren't stopping short and allowing the pin to still make contact.

Thanks again.
[Nexus 7 General] kennyunger:
Idea

Is it possible that this works because one of the connectors is touching both pads? I will try this later, but I wonder if putting a thin strip of tape between the pads will prevent the prongs from touching the wrong one, but still allow the wifi GND to be connected.
[Nexus 7 General] Devhux:
On mine, the screen starts to flicker once the WiFi drops down to a 5Mbps link speed (I'll typically see it go from 65Mbps down to 5Mbps right around the -62 to -65dBm range... and then the flicker starts.

Haven't tried the tape yet, though I wonder if that also would help the link speed dropping so much (you would think there would be a few in-between steps rather than from 65Mbps right down to 5Mbps).
[Nexus 7 General] BenMGP:
Turning off auto brightness seemed to have cured any screen flicker issues I was having.

On another note, I have a 7 from the first batch, and just got another one from Google yesterday. The newer one seems to not have the issue so far. It was also put assembled better. Personally, I think some people might be nit picking a $200 tablet to death. If the 7 came out before the Prime, I would have never wasted my money on the 10.1
[Nexus 7 General] kenyee:
What do you mean by "continuity"?

AFAIK the problem isn't a short but the antenna sucking too much power and mucking up the ground for the backlight...
[Nexus 7 General] kennyunger:
This did not work for me, but thanks anyway.
[Nexus 7 General] masterg0g0:
Reporting, this fix has definitely helped the flickering has reduced a lot
[Nexus 7 General] susanjm:

This worked for me. Thank you so much! (In my case a weak WiFi signal wasn't required, just low backlight.)
[Nexus 7 General] dexterbloodymorgan:

Thank you for this tip - it appears to be working for now. Could you please let us know of the negative effects that one can have here due to covering GND.
