yeah I got the stuck on google start up screen.

Done all the normal things, wipe, wipe, fix and so on, and yet its been 15 mins and no change.

(I installed it twice just to make sure)

Any work around?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Hmm try to flash the stock ROM and then go to recovery, wipe userdata and cache then flash SmoothROM. It should be working.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tired of the Bull:
Touch screen performance is driving me crazy. I'm not sure it's ROM related but the problem is very pronounced on this ROM. When I play Fieldrunners HD the screen touch performance goes insane, it will drop things before I release contact with the screen and will act as if I'm pinching to zoom when I'm only touching one spot.

Now for the troubleshooting...I installed a couple multitouch apps and they show that the screen is working fine initially. However, when I start Fieldrunners then switch to the multitouch apps they report all kinds of crazy results. They report two and three touches when I'm only touch it once and at other times it will show only one I have multiple fingers on the screen.

I installed this with the recommended Kernel and everything is a virgin setup. Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jasKaos:
Just got my Nexus 7 yesterday, wasn't sure if I even wanted to root + flash a custom ROM, but I finally decided to do it a little bit ago. I chose this ROM because I wanted something just as smooth as stock, but with some extras.

Installation was a breeze, used the recommended Kernel, and I'm excited to test this rom to its limits. Good job so far!

Can you get rid of the ime and usb debugging notifications?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Settings --> Developer Option : Deactivate USB Debugging

These are activated because of the kernel, somme like Franco or Bricked have the USB Debugging enabled by default, they are unsigned kernel. But these message only show up whe the usb wire is connected :)

Hey James what's the difference between the kernels? Which one should I pick? Or is there no choice? Sorry just a little confused, I have done a lot of flashing but never had a choice of kernel (that I can recall, lol)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] johnomaz:
Just went to update adn my N7 froze at 10% updating in Aroma. It wiped /system and was mounting it when it froze. I had to hard boot as it was sitting at 10% for about 10 minutes. I can't get into recovery again to restore my nandroid. Trying to figure out how I can get back into recovery.

EDIT

Did this:

I reflashed the rom and it updated fine this time. I love this rom on my N7. It feels very stockish but faster and smoother. It is now booting normally.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Untraumatized:
I put the brick kernel on with this rom and it rated just a hair under the transformer prime, using the same quadrant test you did, if I used the same kernel as you did in your test would it really go up that high!? Seems weird, please anybody feel free to chime in, lol, I'm going to try more Roma and run the same test and see what I come up with

Is there somewhere I can reference for the differences between the kernels? I'm running motley and am fine with it but I would love it if Franco can meet my needs and also improve my battery life further.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tired of the Bull:
The best thing to do is try each one of the kernels with the way you use the device. For me I found that Motley gave me great benchmarks but my real world apps suffered. Franco has been my best overall with stock second. I'm testing Bricked now and so far it looks really good.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BikerBoy030:

Not that I know of, sorry. But I always check battery stats, screen on time and standby time before every charge, and with franco I get almost 2 hours extra screen on time. Im not sure it increases the standby time though. I think I had the best standby with stock rom.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

I might wait til next update. What is the most likely reason getting bugs if i dont wipe user data? It must be changing the kernel right? But if the kernel I use gets updated, is it also more likely to cause bugs? I dont know much about kernels more than that they can boost performance and increase battery life, but i know nothing about the fundamentals of what kernels really are.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
In my case, I have tried all existing kernel for the Google Nexus 7 and found that the Bricked kernel was the smoothest I have never seen :) I'm sticking it :)

I dont recommend the Mothley kernel becuse yes it gives good benchmark but it is not smooth :\ Franco Kernel is my second choice :)

You got to reinstall ;)

This is the line to add to your build.prop to disable the notification I'm pretty sure. You can use any root explorer and edit your build.prop. Add the code to the bottom or something
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Tired of the Bull:
Quick kernel update. Bricked was very smooth and I had no problems in any of my apps, very responsive. However, I have had a couple instances where the tablet wouldn't wake. I had to reset each time. Not such this is kernel related but I've switched back to Franco to test.

Re: [ROM][March 7][4.2.2] SmoothROM v5.0-Smoothest ROM-Deodex-Zipalign-Tablet UI-Stab

Once upon a time I had an original Galaxy S. All the elders of the community insisted that we wipe once, we wipe twice, and even that we wipe a third redundant time before flashing; just to be sure. As a good grasshopper should, I listened, and low and behold it worked and I was destined to profit! Things change and time moves forward, but just as a rule of thumb I, personally, stick to 3x at least if you're going to wipe anyway, it can't hurt. But the real moral of the story is this: listen=profit, also, grasshoppers are nice and friendly and mean well even if they might be wrong.. Lol :rolleyes: ;)

Re: [ROM][March 7][4.2.2] SmoothROM v5.0-Smoothest ROM-Deodex-Zipalign-Tablet UI-Stab

This is the best rom I've used so far, thanks to the developer. As a relative noob I'm not sure if the rom has any influence over available cpu frequencies? Ie I'm using Franco kernel with the Franco app, tried trickster too, and I have no CPU frequencies available between 1000 and 1300. Is this by design and if so how can I make those missing speeds available?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] FizzleDiz:
Re: [ROM][March 7][4.2.2] SmoothROM v5.0-Smoothest ROM-Deodex-Zipalign-Tablet UI-Stab

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong because I'm no pro at kernels, but I believe all frequencies available are based on the kernel. It should have nothing to do with the rom. Flash another kernel to see what's available. You can't OC francos, but you can OC lean kernel to 1.7 (I think) so it'll possibly have a frequency you're looking for. Although, lean kernel was nowhere near as smooth as francos for me. Mess around a bit an keep flashing.

Re: [ROM][March 7][4.2.2] SmoothROM v5.0-Smoothest ROM-Deodex-Zipalign-Tablet UI-Stab

It seems roms naturally slow down, I assume because cache and data build up. That's why a new rom always seems like lighting. Periodically go into recovery and wipe caches for a lil refresher.

Transitions lag and even the overall feel is very not smooth. Its very irritating because I need epub files very much and that as one reason for bying this tablet.

Lean, motley, and and Franco seem to be the most popular. The recommended ones are the ones that say Recommended in Aroma installer. I personally use Franco. It's not overclocked but it's extremely smooth. If you're curious about more details of individual kernels, search for their threads here on xda, and find out which has what you're looking for.

A firewall is different from an adblocker. You can deny anything access to the Internet. Adblockers can screw up certain websites, and hosts need updating constantly, so ads can still sneak through. Plus, it doesn't affect things like Feint for games which run in the background. With a firewall you can block say, Google Maps, from 3g/4g/wifi access to Internet so it's not eating battery. If you block games, you'll have no ads and no Feint running. It saves battery and blocks annoying ads. Check out this screen shot of the firewall caked into MIUI. It's perfect. I just flashed this version of MIUI and haven't restored all of my games and apps yet or you would see alot more X's lol

I don't want an antivirus constantly running in the background eating up resources just for a firewall. I don't know if Avast even has a firewall.

4 possible problems are:

1) Faulty charger/cable, or faulty port on the N7.

2) Maybe the kernel your using doesn't get along with your specific N7. Try another one.

3) Messed up cpu settings. Overclocked to high, bad voltages, etc.

4) Battery is going (or already is) bad. Take the battery out and check to see if it's swelled up. If it can spin on a flat surface, it's bad.

Personally, I never let anything charge overnight. Phone or tablet. Some devices have "protection" against overcharging, most devices don't. An alternative is getting a timer. Plug the timer into the receptacle, plug the charger into the timer. Set the on-time for the timer to say 2am-6am.. That means you can plug in the tablet at 11pm when you go to sleep, but it will only charge for 4hrs. That will help battery life tremendously. Also, did you wipe properly before installing? Wipe battery stats in recovery and try manually calibrating the battery.
