[Nexus 7 Android Development] Russ77:
so I spent Thursday flashing factory images and pushing the official update to my tab. worked great until I lost my aosp browser somehow. that snowballed into losing root and all kinds of fun stuff. since I left my PC at work for the weekend, I restored my latest 4.2.2 backup.

then I saw this, the whole download/flash process took no time at all and I feel this outperforms stock 4.3 across the board. between this and your work on the att "mf3" update on the s4, I'm VERY impressed!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lightsout:
Clean installed, everything's seems good but I don't have stock browser. Not a fan of chrome on android at all. Flashed a zip I found of the 4.3 browser that did nothing. Checked the aroma installer to be sure I didn't miss it

Is this normal. Anyone know how to get it working?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hopscotchjunkie:
Chrome is the stock browser now isn't it? That was the only browser included in the 4.3 factory image.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lightsout:
Really? No more aosp browser? That will be really lame if so. Guess I haven't been keeping up enough. Thanks

Hi. I'm from custom rom AOKP 4.2.2. How can i flash this ROM? I also want to update my bootloader. what should be done first?

Thanks for the list.

Can I install it over 4.2.2? I'm on AOSPAL, and it would be awesome if I could.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Pandayoyo:
Hey guys, sorry to be bothering you with these questions, ive only had my nexus for a few weeks so i still want to be very careful with what i do to it ^^, anyhow, im on XenonHD 4.2.2 right now with TWRP recovery, can i just wipe and install this rom right away or do i need to do something else aswell?

EDIT: I am on the WiFi version of the N7 32gb tablet.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] kenhicg:
Its always best to do a clean install and wipe all caches and factory reset. I wiped system as well. You can always restore asopal if you don't like it.

Life is better with root

---------- Post added at 12:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 PM ----------

Yes wipe caches and factory reset and system in twrp. You will get a step by step install menu that may look different from what you've done in the past but it allows you to choose what you want to install with the rom. Like Google apps and launchers.

Life is better with root
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sgt. meow:
So a factory reset, cache wipe and then a simple install coming from 4.2.2? Will try.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Pandayoyo:
thanks for the answer! downloading right now :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BDR456:
That should be all. You could flash the latest bootloader if you like, but not absolutely necessary. :cool:

Could someone please point me to some easily understandable instructions on updating my bootloader? I have searched XDA but can't seem to find anything that would make sense to someone who actually needs help.

I used one of the toolkits to restore the tablet to stock, pointing it towards the 4.3 image file that I downloaded from Google. From there all you have to do is issue a single command from Fastboot to install TWRP, and then you can do whatever you want, like install this ROM. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
Thanks for the great rom. Any chance of "expanded desktop" or is this anathema?:)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] egore93:
Scott has moved on from the S3. His last update for the S3 was a couple weeks ago. If you go to S3 Verizon thread and to Scott's rom he said his goodbye to us. Its sad because he put out some good builds for us. He will be missed in the S3 community! !
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Wow....still no other 4.3 roms, aside from flashable stock roms. I'm surprised!

Great job! Gonna get a lot of loyal fans because you were so quick on the draw! ;)

I'm having those issues as well. Guessing some apps still need updates for 4.3.

Amazon Appstore works fine for me. Installed several games, no problems. :fingers-crossed:

Thanks!

Correct! The official Nexus 7 ROM has only been shipped Chrome. Never came with an AOSP browser.

Prolly harder for google to track with an AOSP browser :angel:

I would wipe first then you should be able to.

I dont understand what you mean by "Expanded Desktop"

You mean a lot more? ;)

I would say contact the app developers...

Its still a very palatable device. After every other tablet, I always come back to the Nexus 7.

Its just for me! :highfive:

That would be my guess as well...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mike102871:
Why am i not seeing the link to download this? Please someone point me to it.

I've been over and over the op
[Nexus 7 Android Development] StrangerWeather:
It means that you can hide both the status bar and the nav bar. It's great when combined with GMD gesture control.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dparrothead1:
Did you see the part about being in desktop to see the links?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ezas:
I hide them with Apex Launcher. I use swipe up and swipe down to toggle them.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pmgreen:
AMAZING JOB Scott, thanks so much.

Any recommendations for kernels, or does it smoke w/o any needed?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Edible_DNA:
VROOOOM!!!

CleanROM 4.0

Faux Kernel 021 Ultimate
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
Nice, but benchmarks of 4.3 are meaningless.

I get same results like on 4.2 , but everything is far better.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Edible_DNA:
FYI

Scott posted a Quadrant score for the ROM with stock kernel, so this was for him and others that may be wondering what kind of scores CleanROM 4.0 and Faux Kernel 021 Ultimate might generate. Faux Kernel 021 Ultimate wasn't available until recently. ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
man, open a web browser and enter www.scottsroms.com

From there click on downloads...

Should be able to get it from that point...

Ah, yes, I see that now. I guess it does expanded desktop when using that launcher.

Not something I may see value in but if the 3rd party launchers do it then that is good for everyone!

Any of the latest faux123 kernel is my recommendation.

Much faster using mainline.

This ROM, out the box, scores 20% higher in Quadrant scores than stock ROM.

With the Faux123 Mainline it jumps another 20 percent and the gains are just as notable over CleanROM 4.0 as is CleanROM 4.0 over Stock Rooted.

I really recommend this kernel. Its bad ass!

And I never recommend any kernel other than stock... So thats a lot weight I put into this recommendation!

NICE!

IM gonna go download and play with that now...

Not meaningless. They show different levels of performance gains across a variety of configurations.

Now to what you point; the most important gain is the perception of gain (ie: how fluid is the UI, any lag? etc...) That I agree with but don't discount the benchmarks either.

Hope that clarifies my side.

Yep getting ultimate right now... We should start a thread in General about Kernel performance and tweaks.

I might do that, would anyone join in the conversation?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Edible_DNA:
Kernel performance and tweaks

I'd throw my 2 cents in:p

Right now I have everything set as per Faux123's recommendations under "FauxClock App recommended Settings" in his OP, with the exceptions of:

I/O Scheduler Control

I/O Scheduler (eMMC) - SIO for both using deadline

Readhead Size (eMMC) - 768 for both set to 2048

Set On Boot - On for both

ZRAM is NOT enabled

I am using the FauxClock App

[MENTION=426561]scrosler[/MENTION] ROM is still running amazingly, but since I'm not familiar with your ROMs- do you plan to add any features in the future as 4.3 development continues or does this stay essentially stock? I was glad to see the advance reboot menu, but one thing I really miss is customization of the quick settings toggles. Other than that I'm very happy with it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
as the title says, its a clean rom.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] EpicNewb4g:
I just flashed this rom but in the first post it says advanced power menu and other apps like es file explorer are included, but when i flashed it, i checked to see if im 4.3, i did wipe, but i didnt receieve the advanced power menu or misc apps, what did i do ? looks like a stock 4.3 because i didnt even get installer options

edit: nvm i see what i did, i clicked your stock rooted roms section, not cleanrom link on your site.. dummy me. thanks

Yes, my ROMS are popular because they are stable and smooth, CLEAN. Not everyone wants fancy icon changing apps, etc. Some people just like it basic, as I do.

However, I did give thought to the extended Quick Settings and may give that a go. But really, Not too sure right now... Gonna let this one ride out for a while...

Am technically in a "state of retirement" and re-opened this thread and created 4.0 just because I thought it was the right thing to do.

But remember, I am technically retired at this time so updates may or may not occur on a less rapid schedule.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
You probably downloaded the stock Rooted ROM and not CleanROM?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pyroguysf:
Thanks, good to know. Glad you came out of "retirement" for this then, haha.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
Yes, you`re right. Maybe scott will impletent some small mods per request. But personally the only feature i`m missing on 4.3 is the tablet ui, rest is fine.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] EpicNewb4g:
yeah i did... i edited my post with my mistake. dumb me

anyway, im about to install and i am and the question asking me which launcher to install, im unfamiliar with these launchers besides stock, im assuming we can switch after rom is installed so i can try both launchers and other options?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
i like nova launcher.

It`s fast and stable.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] carlosgardel:
Great Rom, It woks very well.It appears that Flash dont work with 4.3, right? Thats the only thing that maybe come back to 4.2.2

I know its not your fault.

Thanks for a really good work!!

I dirty flash from Xenon 11.1 and encounter minimal problems that fixed clearing data for some programs.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dparrothead1:
You're never going to see Flash in a stock ROM. You can always Google "adobe flash apk" and install it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] carlosgardel:
I know that and I have installed already but the same with other programs dont work with 4.3. I know theres gonna be an update for 4.3 compatibility
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
It happens to the best of us, lol

AS far as launchers, yes, you can use stock launcher and then install the others from the market if you so choose.

I have finally found one problem with this ROM. But it's a user problem.

I don't like icons on my homescreen and that's why I use AOKP and the ribbons. I keep finding myself swiping the edges of the screen but nothing happens!!:eek::D

But I did find Floating Toucher. This is it opened...there is a second level that has settings.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] EpicNewb4g:
I have this same dilemma. when I was on 4.2.2, I was able to install the flash apk and install an older dolphin browser that still supported flash to able to use flash content. I tried doing the same in my fresh install of cleanrom 4.3 and my browser just crashes. guess I just gotta wait till it is compatible.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
You never had to use old dolphin....there's a file to delete and then flash works on any dolphin. Just so you know.

Think flash isn't right yet on 4.3 tho. The browsers all have to update for 4.3.

I installed nova launcher when I installed the ROM but I think I want to go back to stock launcher, is there a way to revert to it?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ezas:
It's easy peasy - go into system settings. And then Manage Apps. Find Nova Launcher (you might need to click on all apps)

Then long click on Nova launcher (it might just be a short press) and clear the 'default'. Next time you press home it will ask you what launcher you want to use. When prompted choose use it every time.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] EpicNewb4g:
I tried that but when I go to apps and short press nova, I see the clear default but it is greyed out and thus I cannot press the button
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dparrothead1:
Go to your app drawer. You will see a Nova icon....click on it. Look down and you should see "default launcher". Click on it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] CCivale:

tablet ui

@OP, any developments on the tablet ui mod? not pushing or anything though. battery themes for 4.3 seems to have been updated
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
Cool!

Ahhh.... Cores dont = power!

AMD FX(something or other) is an 8 core 5GHZ chip... And cost over $600+

Intel i4770K is a quadcore chip @ 3.9GHZ and can be had around $325.00

With half the cores the Intel chip SMOKES the AMD chip!!!!!!!!!!!

Not that I hate AMD or anything... I am just illustrating a point... Cores, GHZ, none of that is relevant...

Its all about the architecture of the chip, the interconnect layers, die size, etc etc etc.

And the N10 smokes the N7... But not the New N7

Thats what I am saying!

You both failed the CleanROM Launcher Certification Test :p

See below for correct answer...

Correct... Because when you install the ROM you choose "A" (as in single) launcher, not a multitude of launchers (Which would lead to excess memory usage, etc)...

So here are your options...

Re-install the ROM and choose the stock launcher. This can be done dirty with no issues.

Push the stock launcher from the rom.zip to /system/app

Create a flashable zip, add the files from the stock launcher in the flashable zip and flash it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
Yeah, lots of developments... Wait... Just kidding... :angel:

I have no ambition... After seeing nearly 5,000 downloads of various N7 ROMS I put up this weekend alone (Stock De-Odex, Stock Odex, CleanROM 4) and getting like 100 OP thanks... I lost all my ambition :(

You wont see a lot from me for a while... People cant hit Thanks... Yet they want me to make every mod on earth for them... Nothing against YOU personally, because I am sure you did the most simple of simple to appease a dev (right?)... but... its quite disappointing...

I feel cheap, used and abused :silly:

However, a guy in Spain did donate $1.50! WOOOT!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] uprightbass360:
Hey, you may not have that many thanks which is quite silly and lazy on everyone's part, but you have the most popular ROM for nexus7 right now. Also on that topic, its running great on my tablet with faux u21. Thank you again!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shevich:
Oh come on, hitting thanks does not mean everything, people love your roms, look around some other threads, you'll see people saying your Rom plus xx kernel brought their device back to life, and all those dowloads, you must be doing something right, I just flashed your Rom yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised..just wanted to say if some people are careless don't let them discourage you, you know you've done a good job :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
Thats my point exactly.

And yes, the Faux Kernel is kicking ass with this ROM.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Scott:
Its all perception...

I know people appreciate my work. But what easier way to show it than hit Thanks?

Its fairly customary in all modern nations to give a simple thank you when someone does something that you enjoy / respect / appreciate.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Limbo045:
Most users show their thanks by downloading and using your rom to their satisfaction
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mjs2011:
Exactly. I would take the fact that this Rom is always at the top of the page as a sign of appreciation, not whether or not someone remembered to hit a button.

Funny, someone at the begging of the thread said they noticed it charged faster than before.
