Then I'll try Motley for now. What was the reason [MENTION=4469201]jamesst20[/MENTION] removed it from recommended?

I'm having real horrible battery problems right now, it's not about the kernel or ROM, I think it's my device this time. It charges extremely slowly even if powered off. Still hoping for it to straighten itself out, else I have to factory reset and lock the bootloader.

Although, I bought this one over ebay. The seller actually crossed out and erased the P/N, so I tried erasing to see it but it just got worse. Would they need that for replacement?

One reply's enough LOL I wasn't aware that he had removed it. I still like it. I concentrate on my thing anyway. I hope you have good luck with it as well.

Cheers,
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
Ohmygawd. Cause it never got off the "receiving from server" message, my internet connection is sucking ATM.

Flashed Motley build 249, still having bad battery life. 4cylturbo was removed. Whoops. I'll power it off for a while so it can charge.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rydog66:
How can you flash a new kernel and immediately know how the battery life is? BTW, I think it's XDA not ur connection because I was having those exact issues earlier..... well not exact, I didn't ever triple post! LOL
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
Motley it is.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Spacemonkie4207:
Installed motley, so far so good. So you are saying that overclocking is safe? I assume the only downside top OC would be battery life. 1.5ghz is pretty snappy I must say.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rydog66:
theres a bunch of good info on his thread....and some tweaks too. I don't feel the need for too much overclocking, but I believe it's stable to 1.6 or so. It's plenty fast, stable and great battery at the default....but I DO bump up the GPU. I hope you like it.

Cheers
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
Cause I was charging. And battery percent went down from 11 percent to 10.

Damn I don't know how to solve this now. I am powering off, still, charging is slow. Powered on, charging is even slower.

Maybe I really need to send it over to Asus for a replacement.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
I think I'm coming to a hypothesis. I'm thinking if it's between the charger or the battery. I don't have any other microusbs at home so I just used the old one, and connected it to my sister's laptop. It was pretty good, and it can maintain the charge at 2 percent. lol.

Either way I have to go to the near technicians and find out how to solve this.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Pdj7969:
Charging via USB is always going to be slower than a wall adapter. USB 1.0 and 2.0 only deliver 500mA potential charging amperage. 3.0 moves up to 900mA. The Nexus 7 wall adapter delivers 2.0 amps, or just over double what USB 3.0 can deliver. To get optimal charging, you'll need 1.5-2.0 amps.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
Thanks for that. Due to my issue I cannot send this over to Asus, and the original charger costs $25. :(

I don't have any cash ATM, I might have to consider cheaper alternatives. And I was right, it was the adapter that was broken. Not the battery.

So I'll just look for one that contains 1.5 to 2 amps? What about higher ones? Will they charge faster or totally ruin my Nexus 7?

And, sorry to [MENTION=4469201]jamesst20[/MENTION] for getting really off - topic.

Please reply via PM. Thank you very much!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] chiikko561:
Got to test drive see allot of former paranoid users
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
Hmm.. charging seems to be fine now. Charging via wall adapter maintains + increases battery charge. So all it needed was power from other sources?

Weird problem. I'll see if it straightens itself out as [MENTION=5020091]rydog66[/MENTION] says. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Pdj7969:
This is always good information to keep in mind. USB just doesn't deliver enough juice to charge these tablets. Phones draw less power and therefore their batteries can be charged by USB, albeit it slower than through the wall adapter. A custom kernel for my phone invokes fast charge which manages to somehow coax ~1 amp out of the USB port using magic or Unicorn Farts® or some such thing, but that's a moot point in this venue so I will stop talking about that. Glad to hear the wall adapter is giving you positive results...now hopefully once the kernel settles you'll start seeing the battery life the rest of us enjoy.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
I actually searched for Unicorn Farts. lol.

The charging seemed to be bad again, I left it for like an hour and it was charged by 3 percent. Amazing. Haha. I'll no longer interrupt this thread by asking people about my battery issues. ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rydog66:
Charging from usb is slower than the regular charger it comes with. Your device automatically turns into data mode and charging is cut pretty drastically. I don't wanna tell you he wrong info so I'm not gonna throw out the specs I'm thinking until I can verify them. The point is, charging off your Sisters laptop will charge about half as fast as normal.

What do you mean by slow tho? If you charge it all the way to 100 percent does it last you a good while? Does it drain quickly? These devices are too new to have a battery wear out. If it Is the battery than its a defective one. Have you ONLY been charging from usb?

Good luck Bud.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
Yeah, I noticed that but apparently, charging via USB can actually sustain light usage. Idk about gaming & movies yet.

Actually, I think it's fine now, I don't know why it charges slower when powered off or I just feel that way. I'm charging via wall adapter now. It's good.

I'll just have to make it reach 100 and reflash 4cylturbo. Didn't know 0.54 was out.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Well the output power of USB ports on computer are not as much as the charger that comes with the device I believe ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bbc0:
I am still on 5.0 because it works so well and I am happy with it.

So what am I missing out on by not taking the upgrade?

Cheers,
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
You might have had installed apps which are battery-hungry. Have you tried disabling maps and Currents? They are always running on background, I think, which consumes battery.

About random reboots, you flashed using JROMFlasher right?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Switch kernel :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BigJoey010:
To which ? Because Im on Franco kernel (which is very smooth ...all the rest the same ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tarwedge:
I've lost market connectivity, has anyone else had this issue?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
Try Motley. Or LeanKernel. Choose for yourself.

I once also had problems with the battery life, try uninstalling some apps if you still want to continue with it.

Not me. Even though my ISP is slow I still see pictures and can even download apps.

What kernel are you using?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BigJoey010:
I don't wanna switch Roma,because seriously this Rom is like its name and better ...... Really smooth but now I'm just starting to experience some lag and battery drains,freezing random reboots ...hopefully the kernel fixes it ...the prob is that it just suddenly started happening ....
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Yes market is not working at all for me. Also network connection is very slow on other apps. On both stock kernel and trinity.

*Edit, just tried motley. Not working with that either.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Maybe a region could be offline?

Perhaps, have you dirty flashed?

how long of a bootloop is too long? lol

just unlocked and rooted the tablet, flashed this rom and its been at the boot up screen for a good 10 minutes?

i just wiped data/cache davlik..do i do a factory reset and then reflash?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cruzargel:
You guys already have Google Play Services 3.1? My note already has it a couple of days ago. It updated to Google Play 4.1 though.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rydog66:
You should do a factory reset, if you don't want to run into weird little problems tht just don't make any sense & will drive you insane trying to figure them out! I'm a fan of the jromflasher2 tool made by jamesst20 the dev who made and maintains this Rom. It's a guarantee. The tool will wipe everything tho.... Just a heads up, but it gets your device all set to flash a Rom, without having to worry if you didn't do this or do that. This Rom is bad ass btw.

Cheers

You must wipe everythinf including factory reset

If you use JROMFlasher, the recovery that gets installed is TWRP. So yeah, it's recommended. Plus you don't have to go through complicated stuff & huge downloads.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Deathman20:
New to the Nexus 7, wanted to get one for a while, and now preferring it over my Asus Transformer Infinity just for easy of use and its considerably quicker.

Though with my lovely Infinity, I had to OC it to feel like it was performing well at anything. So with that what is "the" kernal of choice? Does it have CPU/GPU OC? As well what do people select for the best program to modify the voltage tables at least for the CPU? I've used Pimp My Rom before, and using Trickser right now but seems to have issues holding values.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Azure Dragon:
No, actually meant on the installer. And I don't know what root explorer has to do with this :P

Try Motley. It has OC, but I don't know for GPU.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Deathman20:
If not mistaken that is the one I selected when I did the install. Just curious if there was anything better out there than this? Seems like every device has just those few really good kernals that stick out with functions.

BTW it does have GPU overclocking, though don't know if it adjusts voltage settings for it. Its stock and you have to adjust it at will.

BTW figured out what was holding back Trickster from enabling my settings, seems to work now. Just me being not patient.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Well Boat Browser is installed in /system/app and you could replace it by Firefox. That is what Root Explorer has to do :) Flash works good, it depends which version you use but which is right, I forgot :P
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rydog66:
Just uninstall what you don't want (Boat browser) and install what you do (firefox) - Done

Hi everyone,

I don't have a very good news to tell but it might be the end of SmoothROM, my little sister broke my Google Nexus 7 so I have no device anymore to test my developments. She dropped an empty cofee cup on my device and it smashed the screen. There is nothing I can do, the screen is damaged very hardly and doesn't work anymore, the cup was very heavy.

After all, I really liked devolopping SmoothROM and I didn't wish it would end that way but I might consider buying a new Nexus 7. Right now, I was looking for a job and I will need a car so I was sparing money for my future car, I really can't spend all my money on a new Google Nexus 7 right now. If you guys wish to donate to help me get a new Nexus 7 (it will go to the Nexus 7 of course, not the car) I would be very happy and don't forget, donating is far from being a must, only donate if you wish to :)

Thanks!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] mrbigtime:
There is no 3G version right?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Jonnyredcorn:
All it takes is a 10 second search and you will find that no there is no 3g version. It may even be stated in the op.

Second if you read one or two posted above you you will find that the will not be anymore updates as James N7 broke. Now if you want to donate to him and donate enough for him to get a 3g model he will probably support it.

I checked this thead to see if there was an update and am sorry about your loss James. I would donate but I lost my job as of Saturday. Once I find a new one I will gladly help you. As soon as I got my n7 I flashed your ROM and haven't switched. It's easily the best thing available for this device. Thanks
