[Nexus 7 Original Development] why always me:
Or you may use fastboot to flash it with command :

fastboot flash boot xxxxx.img

this method also work really well without 3rd party apps require.

Can I use Wug's Toolkit to flash the osmod?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] paranoid android85:
[MENTION=1143630]osmosis[/MENTION] any way you can just add the img into the kernel already? Might be easier for people. I just dl r61 and replace the boot.img with osmosis and renamed it to boot.img
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Are you talking about the zips? Jesus. No. It's a testing file. It's extremely easy to replace the boot.img in an existing zip like (I think) you're suggesting, or flash it with f.Ku or Flash Image GUI. All very simple options.

I don't know how much more people need to be spoon fed around here. Learn how a flashable zip works. It's entirely understandable and common sense with a basic kernel flashing zip like f.K's. Toolkits only encourage stupidity.:eek:

For some reason I keep getting YouTube lag even with osmod :( I've tried leaving the settings at default and changing hotplug/governor settings but nothing seems to work. The only solution that has worked is reverting back to r47 which doesn't have as good battery life as osmod

Me too, I've flashed the reset zip but it doesn't help! :( Please, anyone can help me?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Because Franco has made more optimizations to the other devices, it's because he doesn't have loads of tinge and I think that the nexus 7 is a more difficult/annoying device to code for :)

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

I've been continuing to mess with the settings on osmod and I've found that by changing the medium load threshold to 20 in the hotplug settings fixes any lag, at the cost of some battery life (not loads of battery but it will probably be noticeable) however med thresh on r61 works at 25

Damn! We should clone him :D

Another good kernel, developer, team and community originating from the GN side. :good:

Pooooooooo-

-oooop. :(

Did you try stepping it down like I suggested last time? Honestly anything higher than 20 would be better.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
I tried going down 1 at a time from 25 on the osmod version and 20 was the one that stopped the lag. I've now moved to r61 (not the osmod version) and used all the governor/hotplug settings from osmod and I've watched about 10 videos and none of then have given me any problems with the med thresh at 25 on r61

For some reason r61 seems better than r61osmod which makes no sense because they're almost the same but yours should be better.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jonnyredcorn:
So I have a question regarding charging not necessarily pertaining to this kernel specifically but more so with android devices in general. Does leaving them plugged in after being fully charged harm the battery in any way? For example I charged my nexus 7 last night and while it was charging I had day dream running displaying the clock. Well I would like to keep it plugged in and leave day dream running and kinda use it like a desk clock. My only concern is I was under the impression that leaving drives plugged in after they reach a full charge is not good for the battery.

I am running r47 btw.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Original recipe feels better than osmod even with med at 20?

Well, that's a reversal of your previous opinion. :confused:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
I'm using med 25 with the original r61

And I know, it's strange that I've changed my previous opinion but it could just be the settings that make the YouTube lag go away, maybe it's bit osmod. That's not me saying osmod is bad because it's good, it just doesn't work very well for me ATM :(
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Does 25 work for you on r61? That'd also be the opposite of what you said initially. :confused::(
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Yeh med at 25 works on r61 :)

I'm gonna go and check what I said initially now :)

Edit: I've edited my previous post, it should make more sense now ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Alrighty.. We might have to go blind test to see what's making the difference for you.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Well great news (sarcasm) r61 isn't as great as I thought :( I just started to watch some more of my subscriptions and my tablet just started to stutter then it froze and I had to hard reboot so it's either cyanogenmod or my grouper, I'm going to go back to osmod because although the YouTube lag is worse for me, the overall smoothness of the ui is better.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] khaytsus:
The only harm would be if the battery is hot (north of 30c) because) lipoly degrade (slowly!) if in high heat at higher charges. If in a reasonably cool environment don't sweat it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Stock ROM is seriously underated why not try running it for a while, rooted with what ever recovery and you could always restore your nandroid.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
I would but I'm so used to all of the cm features :) I tried pa for a week or two and I didn't like it but I'll flash stock ROM in the morning, now I've got to find a download link for it :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Well here's your download link https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and I bet you there's an app out there for just about all cyanogen features, I bet you don't need most of them anyway ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Thanks, I'm not new to the flashing ROMs but I've never had to flash the stock ROM and the file format of these factory images is .tar do I just flash in recovery or do I need to use the nexus root toolkit on the pc?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
You need to either extract and fast boot each file or could use the tool kit to make things easier on your behalf. Do be aware if your flash userdata your SD gets wiped just like if you were unlock the boot loader.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Ok thanks for all of your help, it's nice to be part of such an active and helpful community :)

Just before I go to sleep heres a r999 attached as a preview for the next release. Contains the new Hotplug algorithm that I added on Mako yesterday and dynamic scaling of interactive tunables if the device is under high load. I still need to add some stuff tomorrow, so consider this really just a preview, for me hoping to gather feedback while I sleep. Have fun.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Every time I restore and reboot this boot.img on my grouper it gets stuck at the Google logo. I don't know what's causing us l it
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Confirmed, also stuck at Google screen and now I'm in the unfortunate position I can't fix my nexus 7 till its out of battery. I can't access android, I have stock recovery and can't access fastboot and im about to go to work. Hopefully it will run out of battery while I'm working so I can fastboot it when I'm home.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Ouch :( , I'm glad I still had twrp recovery on mine so I could flash the r61.zip that I keep for emergencies
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
I bet! Its a bit annoying but on the plus side I'm at work not just sat at home waiting for it to run out of battery. Its my own fault for getting over excited this morning catching up on xda and seeing we finally have an update and having been reading the n4 forum too I can see just how much improved this should be!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
That's exactly what I did, I saw Franco's post and immediately flashed the .img :) BTW, why are you waiting for the battery to run out?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ratcav:
Sorry if I misunderstood but I think you don't have to run out of battery. Just keep pressed the power button until the tablet turns off and then boot in fastboot
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
That doesn't work, with the new kernel he flashed it doesn't get past the Google image at the start of the boot, I tried everything to get it to boot before flashing the r61 .zip hope this helped clear things up for you :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
I can't boot to android to restore the r61, I have stock recovery so I can't flash any zips, I can't get to fstboot mode as I can't turn off the device or remove battery. I can only hard reset holding power key which is just a way to force reboot and gets me stuck at Google screen again lol
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you get into fastboot by holding power and vol down at the same time for about 10 seconds?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ratcav:
It's what I said but they said it won't work
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Its the first time its been 'soft bricked' which is quite good considering iv owned it more than 6 months now. I just hope it is booting up using all 4 cores at 1.3ghz so the battery runs out faster, not that it matters I won't get my hands on it for another 9.5 - 10 hours
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
Hold both power and vol down goes to fastboot, no? Mine does

Then you can fastboot flash abother boot img or a recovery??

btw confirmed the r999 doesn't boot, patiently waiting for the next release :P

And [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]your github link is broken in your profile, you don't need the github bit in it only your name :)

Thanks, from a very happy user :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gm.cinalli:
Strange, but now I have no lag at all.. I reflashed the ZIP and everything goes fine :eek:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
So r999 hasn't worked for anyone? I guess it must just be a bad upload because for Franco to upload it, it must have worked for him
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
I'll try that home thanks. I know that's how you access fastboot from a powered off device but I never tried while in OS or booting. I'll let you know how it goes when I get back.

---------- Post added at 12:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

Thanks for the mention, these settings have changed since I posted that but I haven't updated it. Omsod r61 has the revised settings which should be better on battery life too. Osmod r61 is the summery of all the team Franco settings and experiments so far
[Nexus 7 Original Development] rkuijpers:
It will work :thumbup:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
[MENTION=2918197]The Gingerbread Man[/MENTION] you can hold power until it hard reboots, then there's a half-second window when you can hold power+vol down to get to the bootloader. If you miss it the first time you can do it again until you catch it. I've done this after breaking my N7 with testing many times. :D :good:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] franciscofranco:
Ups guys, I think I uploaded the wrong boot. It was 7am (long working night) and my head had a panic. Will upload in a sec.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] franciscofranco:
This should work, just booted out of it. Test it out for a while while I keep adding some more changes.

Just use franco kernel updater,

place the boot.img in the kernel_backups folder on the root of the sdcard,

go into kernel backup and restore in the app and click boot.img, or whatever you name it too if you decide to rename it.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] timbck2:
Correct. But in my humble opinion, if you're using Franco's kernel you should buy the paid app to help compensate him for the countless hours of time and lost sleep he's put into it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DroidOnRoids:
Hell, I believe I bought his app when it was first released for the Gnex for 99 cents? Now it's 4 dollars? I'd still pay. Franco's badass :p
[Nexus 7 Original Development] frost_nz:
That's the bootloader you're talking about (4.18). If the kernel was installed as a default then there is no needed to flashing the boot.img.

It is awesome, but it's throttling down too easy. I'm noticing heavy stuttering when I'm not interacting/touching the screen like some other folks have reported.

I reset the Franco app, rebooted, turned off fsync and logging like I always do, no other changes. I think it's just dropping down speed or CPUs too aggressively? I'd play with settings but they confuse me ;)

I'll say franco is a bit better on battery than trinity but not by THAT much, though trinity was a beast for performance :P
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ÜBER™:
Issue with that is franco loads a tweaked ramdisk whereas trinity uses the ROM's ramdisk.. so if you flash franco and flashed back to trinty without reflashing the ROM then you're still using his ramdisk.. which "could" and from what i've heard "does" cause issues. At least it did for me on the gnex.
