Awch man what happened?? D: hope you can repair it soon dude, this rom is awesome!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
:( Bad news, my computer is dead and I do not have the money to replace it right now

I don't know what happened, I came back and the computer was frozen but I felt like only the fan was turning and for some reason at max speed which only happens when the processor is really hot but the air coming from the fan was cold :/ I had to force shutdown by removing the battery and now it wont turn on :( The motherboard is dead :(

I really don't know when I will get it fixed, I don't have the money to get a new one :( My parents will help me but they wont pay the whole computer, at least I've got a job but they don't call me so often :/ Sometimes not even once in a month but I earnt 150$ this weekend at least. If you guys wish to help me, I would MORE then appreciate it.

Thanks you

Damn that sucks..... :(

Sent you a little help. 26H76684AS226540G

Keep up the good work.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] vn00914361:
Holy shiit! This ain't good at all. You're using a laptop, right? Or desktop?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nivlac978:
You sure it's dead? Have you tried taking the battery out, plugging it in and turning it on? That has fixed my computer when it wouldn't turn on.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Dabaum:
Depending on how old your computer is, a new motherboard isn't that expensive. $150 is way more than enough to get a new motherboard. The only other costly bit would be the time to put everything back together. And if you have a buddy who is willing to work with you, you can try your CPU in his motherboard, if it's compatible, to see if it's dead.

What are your specs? If it's Core 2, I've got some parts to get rid of. Not too sure if they still work, but if they do, you can get a free processor, motherboard, video card, power supply, hard drive, case, pretty much everything you need to build a new PC. However, I'm not sure if the motherboard is dead or not. I know the CPU is fine though.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hungragezone:
Sorry, but i must say that, i hate CM :(

And so sad about jame's laptop, i will help u a little with my paypal. Hope that u will continue to develop this rom ;)

[Nexus 7 Android Development] goofball2k:
Since he said "I had to force shutdown by removing the battery", I'm going to assume it's a laptop and not a desktop, in which case, it is much more involved in replacing the motherboard, and it could be many other things that are dead as well, not just a motherboard (usual suspect since integration is very high).

Keep an eye on the dell days of deals going on right now, they have laptops routinely for $299 with uBuntu linux, decent i3 config with 4GB RAM. They had the 14" Vostro 2420 for $299 ($329 with W7) on Friday and the 15" Vostro 2420 for $299 yesterday.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Well it is a Laptop, a Dell Studio 1558 with the very first generation of Intel Core i7. I had bought it 1137$ 2 years ago x)

Edit : Received 3 Donations, please pm me your email I don't know your username xD It is never expected but always appreciated thanks you :D

Edit 2 : I'm out of warranty and they told me it wasn't worth changing the motherboard as it would be very expansive :( and yes I've tried everything :(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] paranoia1988:
AFAIK motley hasn't updated his kernel yet. So it's not compatible to Android 4.1.2 as it's said in Jay's thread.

I recommend not to use this tweak until there is a new kernel released...:)

Any reason why this ROM seems to shut down the wifi connection when the screen goes to sleep? Really annoying when you are trying to download a file and it keeps pausing, forcing you to have to turn the screen back on to continue.

I just want to download a stupid theme(Cobalt), and it takes forever with the N7 tethered to my Sprint phone, where the 3G connection is slow as dial-up. So far I am 42% download complete on a 25mb file, in 16 minutes. Horrendous enough as it is without it constantly putting Wifi to sleep... LOL
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Dabaum:
All you have to do is go to Settings > Wifi, click the button in the top right corner > Advanced, the set Wifi sleep policy to "Always on".
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SquireSCA:
Cool, thanks!

Won't help with the 5-20kbps that Sprint 3G averages, but at least it will stop shutting off. hehe

hi there

first of all I would like to thank you for this rom.

secondly, i just got my N7 yesterday, I unlocked and rooted the device.

I tried flashing this rom the easy way but the jave file gives me an error file could not be found some thing like that. I used the alternative way, boot into recovery(TWR)< not sure about its name but its not CMW is was flashed automatically with the root kit. anyway, I went through the steps recovery, I erased dalvic cache and system then I flashed the rom. every thing was going good till the device boot up, it took more than 30 min nothing happend, i kept it for 2 hours now, what am i doing wrong???????

and btw I boot into boot loader, I choose recovery i get a blank screen with google logo thats all. now I will try to reflash the recovery from the tool kit.

thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] kufor:
There is/was a bug on Nexus7, that you can't coldboot into recovery. You either had to reboot to recovery from the ROM with a QuickBoot, ROM Manager or any other tool. Or you had to plug the Nexus7 to computer and boot into recovery like that. ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bazabaza:
Yes in order to get into recovery you need the usb connected.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mr.dj26:
thanks guys,

may i know what the best recovery for the N7?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Robin2:
How can we disable fsync to boost i/o performance?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mr.dj26:
!

okay I got the device back up, flashed CMW> flashed the rom> SAME PROBLEM AGAIN :(

what can I do i dont one to update 4.1.2 with stock because as I know there is a problem with it
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Badgerkiller:
James do you try to unmount RAM ? With nothing in the socket your laptop should boot but stay in black screen.

Unfortunately if nothing happens with this trick you're right, your embedded power supply is down.:crying:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sultan.Alkhuzaie:
CWM Recovery 6.0.1.0 is the best for me

The TWRP a lot of people after flashing a rom it doesn't boot
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shingers5:
Issues with twrp are well documented but I think its more user related than actual recovery. My motto is if it ain't broke why change as cwm has never let me down. Its universal now and does the job. Maybe ROM zip need altering to work with twrp specifically who knows
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bbc0:
In order to take to update to stop the annoying messages, I reverted back to stock. Once the update had completed I rooted my N7 using the toolkit 3.6. It offered me two different bootloaders. I tried the newest and it did what you are saying when I tried to boot up. I went back and tried the old bootloader and it worked as it should, taking about 11 seconds to start the boot animation.

Hope this makes sense and helps.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gleung:
hm. I moved from PA to this ROM. I wiped data and cache. Chose the battery saving kernel, but now I am stuck at bootloop. Is this known? o.O
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DaRkRaGe:
Go to the first post of this thread and download jromflasher. Boot your phone to booleader (hold volume up, volume down and power button) and follow the steps to wipe everything and restore your phone. Then flash the smoothrom. The software has steps to guide you
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bbc0:
I tried this and it worked as it should till I tried to flash the ROM. It could not find the ROM. Are we supposed to d/l it before?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] leroybrute:
I had to upload it twice with jromflasher to get mine to flash. I rebooted tablet into recovery again and the zip was there.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Curunir:
Somehow init.d support doesn't seem to work for me. It did work on the previous version, but only with the bricked kernel. When I update it to version 4.0 the scripts in init.d simply aren't loaded (init.d is rwxr-wr-w and files inside rwxrwxrwx). Wiping or not wiping doesn't make any difference. I like my swap, so until I can get this fixed no 4.0 for me :(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Yes, it is a known issue that the rom doesn't boot when you don't wipe your stuff like everyone keep telling :/

Yeah because you didn't mount the partition like it was written to do so when you came up to browser the rom, it said no files found but it had to mount the partition to check if there were files.

I'm taking apart my laptop tonight, wish me good luck :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nickster1:
Good luck James!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rfs830:
Just installed this rom using your other tool. You made it real easy. So far im liking this rom.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Stuphologist:
Good luck!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] opz187:
A lot of devs out there with "Computer issues".
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Turbotab:
Meaning what?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Issues caused by not reading the topic or unable to install Java 7 ;) Nothing I can deal with :P
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Here are some updates : Looks like there is 2 really really small wire in the motherboard burnt 0o how did this happen.. no idea. The only try I can give is solding 2 wires in the back of the motherboard between the 2 burnt point and hope :) Unsure how insecure it is to do that but can it be worse then broken xD ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mertzi:
First remove the hdd just in case it becomes toast if your wiring fries everything so you dont lose any data. Reading that your computer isnt more than 2 years old really pisses me off. The tech industry's agenda is so obvious, its not like its uncommon that gadgets break just when the warranty has surpassed, damn growth economy. The wires probably got burnt according to schedule, read about planned obsolesence!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Oh well that really explain :( There is really no reason why it would burn that way.. But you know, when I think about it, I see much often broken laptop but I've never seen a broken Apple laptop, should I get a Macbook pro instead?

PS: I can only get a laptop because my parents aren't together anymore so every weeks I change place :P
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gleung:
thank you! i got it to work. i like this a lot better than PA! xD!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Thanks ! :D
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Turbotab:
The internals of most decent laptops are often quite similar, due to massive companies dominating the landscape restricting choice. Apples do break, they are still at the mercy of suppliers,like the issue they had with Nvidia GPUs a while back. The actual shell of a Macbook Pro is strong, but the new ones are *****es to get into without specialist tools. I recommend Thinkpads, especially the T-series, strong, reliable and more powerful for your money than a Macbook Pro.

Put a 256 GB SSD in this and you're good to go.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] afrojoc:
As long as you can continue your amazing work on this ROM... I give you permission to get a macbook pro :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
I agree 100%. Where I work, we have a wide range of lenovo laptops, and recently switched our desktops to lenovo's as well... I highly recommend lenovo! We have a some apple products and I would stay far away from them.

Ps, we still have some T40's running strong, and Windows 8 running beautifully on a T60.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Thanks everyone for all your suggestions :)

I will be looking for a Mac Book Pro, I know it is expensive but it was taking 5-6 houra building only once aosp and I had an intel core i7-720QM Quad Cores :p I need to aim a bit high if I want to get a better/same compilation time and for some reason my parents believe Apple is god so they now want me to get a Macbook only or they wont help me pay xD. So far, I would say I have around 500$ and they accept to lend me 500$ (ofc I will have to pay them later but that's very small details right now :)) so I've 1000$ :) Getting close, I hope my work will call me asap haha :p

Of course! Don't be scared that I WILL keep working on SmoothROM but witbout a computer it is a bit hard. My mother finally allowed to use her computer but nothing so great into this x) I can't change her system so I have to use a VM and it is an Intel Dual-Core 2.0GHz (a old CPU lower then Core 2 Duo), building using this probably takes really long xD
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tantin:
I had a problem with bricked kernel (flashed via aroma). In all governors the cpu would run at max frequency. Flashed Franco now and all's good. Still, maybe someone has the same problem.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Robin2:
I have the same problem. It stays at 1500mhz all the time.

Edit: nvm, Quadrant is giving false info, at settings-performance it's showing correct adaptive frequencies.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] kufor:
..except that Thinkpad is ugly as devil's ass :D

You're safe with MacBook Pro, James. ;)

I have it for 4 years, still works fine.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tantin:
I got the info about frequencies from settings > performance
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Thanks Kufor :) Apple makes good quality producr at high price bjt I guess that would be for the best.I hate their iPad but always loved the Macbook :)

Are you sure it is set 'onDemand' ? If you set 'Performance' profile, the frequency will always stay on max ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tantin:
[/COLOR]

I know ;)

I tried ondemand, interactive, powersafe (should stick with min frequency, right?) and performance at 1300mhz. In all cases frequency was stuck at 1500mhz.

Though I don't think the problem is Rom related, everything works just fine after I flashed the latest (stable) Franco.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] B-Man2005:
is jays buttery smoothness tweak already in this rom ?

thx
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mario23:
Hey trying the latest update and everything works great.

Only thing I've noticed is, I have the tablet UI, and it works fine except that the lock scrieen won't landscape.

Is there a setting for that maybe?

I'll keep looking.

Nice work though...smooth for sure...donating soon.

Tks

Anyone else's lock screen clock get cut off in landscape?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Robin2:
Anyone??
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sahshah:
In Anroid terminal emulator, type this

su(press enter)

echo "0" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/fsynccontrol/fsync_enabled(press enter)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Robin2:
Thanks, I tried this but it doesn't persist after a reboot.

Edit: This command tells me: 'No such file or directory'.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sahshah:
I have edited my post , try that command it should work.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] leroybrute:
I have no idea what your talking about. All I got from that is I'm an idiot and I did it wrong. I used your flash method and did every step by the letter. Ignorant comment, and even though your rom is a nice rom I will skip a donation and move on from your projects.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Robin2:
It works, but after a reboot the effect is gone. How do I let it persist?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sahshah:
For that either use this Trickster Mod or use franco kernel app it has option to toggle fsync and persist on reboot.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Robin2:
Thanks! If there's no other way, that's too bad because I don't want to use franco's kernel. I need CPU overclock with no GPU overclock, but he does it the other way around :P.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
I have no idea Robin sorry but it is nornal that it doesn't persist on reboot. What you got to do is to make a init.d script that do the command and everytime you reboot, it will be called automatically :) Your script goes into /system/etc/init.d Set your script permissions to 7777 :)

I'm sorry if you miss understood what I meant and I think I was not answering you when I said that :p All I meant is that it is written everywhere that you have to wipe your data and if you don't wipe, it will get stuck into boot animation. It is the samething for any rom ;)

Alright, I soldered the 2 wires I was talking about in my laptop and it did work ! But for like 3 minutes x) I will get an adapter tonight to fetch the data in the laptop hdd because SmoothROM Sources are there and needed for updating it and updating its source base would be a great idea right :) Don't worry guys, I will keep updating the ROM and probably an update will be available this weekend well I hope so xD i7-720QM 4 Cores 4 Thread: Build in 5 Hours how long for a Pentium Dual-Core xD?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cubiche:
How do I get rid of nova launcher and go back to stock?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
You can't using the tablet ui because the stock luncher sucks with tablet ui ;) the layout is broken
[Nexus 7 Android Development] mertzi:
James can you really do what you do in osx? Arent there driver issues and whatnot if you need to plug your nexus to your macbook to e.g. reflash stock if it gets bricked? Or do you plan to run windows in boot camp or something similar? Personally I think getting a mac (or anything apple for that matter) is the worst bang-for-buck situation possible.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
It is my third laptop that breaks in less then 3 years 0o Acer, HP, Dell

I'm really tired of this happening and I will be giving a try to Apple

And yes of course the driver works, I had Mac Mountain Lion installed on my Dell Studio 1558 ;) and don't worry, I will be doing triple boot again but not on VMWare, a real triple boot :)

And yes you're right, it cost more then an HP but I believe the product quality is higher :) also, my parents are giving me 500-600$ if I get a Macbook and nothing for HP/Dell or whatever. They believe Apple is god and will not break again that sooner. But for what they give me and the price difference, it is pretty much a good offer right :)

Thanks I flashed your rom last week to see but it is kust like Barmulio fix, the layout is fine but as soon as the app name is long, the label will toucn other apps name :(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Alright! So the laptop is dead and I succeed to transfer my files into my external HDD, at least I can keep working on the computer of my mom, I will do my best to release at least one update this weekend :) I'm scared to see how long it takes compiling the whole project into a Pentium Dual-Core xD

By the way, a huge thanks to any of you who donated me to support my case, I really appreciate it. It really means much to me, thanks :) I have worked yesterday night and I'm coming closer to be able to get the macbook :) I would say there is only around 700$ missing out of much,it is really expansive to get a good macbook, I am aiming the cheapest 15" Macbook because I need the Quad Core.

Thanks you!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Udonitron:
Macbook?

Noooooooooo! LOL
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Deusex74:

Try Clemsyn Elite Battery Saver. I'm using that one and it's as fast as Franco IMO and has better battery life.

Bricked was using battery way to fast for me.
