Great rom! Only "bug" I 've noticed is some random white line under the statusbar, when usin phablet UI.. doesn't really matter but it's annoying :D

Read the last several pages......if you wanna fix it. ;)

Screen Shot

Can a Screen Shot button be added to the Navigation bar? I can't find it listed among the choices.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] reggie14:
I did a clean flash yet still ran into the white line bug. Changing the font size of the status bar text seems to be an effective work-around.

I just ran benchmark tests and got these results.. Higher one with cpu overclocked to 1.6Ghz, but I should get that about 5800p. Am I doing something wrong?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rockknee:
Well I seem to have added two same pics but without overclocking result was something about 3800..

first time to install this ROM (with lean Kernel) on my Nexus 7. I did searched the thread but was unable to find the answer to my "noob" question so pardon my ignorance. Problem is, whenever i plug the nexus on my PC, the only thing it detect are 2 folders: DCIM and Pictures. Can't seem to find any of the other folders although i can see them via my file explorer. Anything wrong im doing here? Appreciate any help. Thanks.

Open the Settings app, go to Storage, tap on the three dots at the top right conner and select Media Device (MTP). Go back to the Settings app, Developer Options, select USB Debugging. If you don't see the Developer Options section, you'll have to enable it by taping 7 times on Build Number in the About Tablet section.

For some reason my home button broke when I cleared user app data in titanium backup. Has anyone had this problem? Other than that the ROM is buttery smooth.

Hi.

Just installed 5.2 and for some reason in phone mode UI the navigation bar does not appear in landscape mode.

Is this normal?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheAtheistReverend:
So, how does one achieve this? Must I wipe fully? Can I dirty flash the rom/aroma over my current 5.2?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] GiantsFan91:
When I touch on screen and it's flick. It's so annoying. How can I fix this?

You speak about the ROM or the kernel ?

Decided to try franco on this latest clean install of 5.2 but want to go back to motley. I just want to avoid reinstalling everything to swap the kernel.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] NicoGa:
As an advice, try m-kernel first (it is wonderful). You can flash of directly for Franco.

To go back to motley you will have to use one of the cleaning script that can be found on XDA.

Since r62 Franco has been strange. I had bad lock ups on r62 and it looks like there are still problems on r65.

I'm currently using m kernel. It's not as blazing fast as Franco but it's very stable and battery is good.

SmoothRom v5.2

Go to your Settings -> Wi-Fi -> Advanced -> Wi-Fi optimization -> Turn it off

If the first solution can't help then Go to your Android Settings -> Display -> Brightness and turn off the option that says Automatic Brightness and move the brightness slider level to around 40%

Hope this can help you!

I wanted to update to the latest release, can I just flash the new ROM? Do I still need to clean install? Btw, I flash the previous version cleanly.

Really enjoying this rom,

How do i get rid of the google search bar?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] misterbuggy:
For some stupid reasons, I deleted my installed custom rom via custom recovery. Then i rebooted with a prompt "No OS is installed, do you want to reboot?" I swipe to reboot then i'm stuck at Google screen. I'm already downloading the toolkit. Can someone please help me. Will I use the toolkit when my nexus 7 is in bootloader mode? ( Power button + volume down) And i think i haven't installed my drivers. Can i install drivers of nexus 7 without having to plug my device when it's working normally? Please someone help me.

flash customrom with otg cable

I got into the problem as yours once,

luckly, I have ClockworkMod Touch Recovery on the tablet & otg cable

You can do this by:

. copying a custom rom (obviously, mine is SMOOTHROM) into a usb stick

. connecting that usb stick (containing the customROM), by using otg cable

. boot Tablet to Recovery mode,...looking for sth like MOUNT, to mount the usb stick

. then you either FLASH CUSTOM ROM from your USB stick

but it is safer/better by: copying the custom rom to your Tablet,

then you flash it.

Hope you have Recovery program, and an OTG cable, and can solve the problem

Good luck!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] orlzzt:
I am going to try this today, but I had a bear of a time downloading it! Is it just me, or is the server particularly slow? I have 60MB download speed and 10 MB up, and it took me over an hour to DL this file. Might just be server traffic, jammed up with all the hoards of adoring fans downloading the rom! But just thought I'd let the OP know, in case he wants to throw up a few more mirrors. Anyway, thanks for the hard work you put into this rom! This will be my first flash on the N7 after having run rooted stock for 2 months...

TWRP asking for password? Tablet not booting

Hi Guys, just last night, I tried flashing the new franco kernel r-65. The flashing went fine and my tablet rebooted and showed Android upgrading prompt but after this my tablet rebooted and stayed on the "loading" screen. I tried rebooting to recovery mode and I was surprised that it was asking for a password that I dont even remember putting. I chose cancel button and I was brought to the main screen of the TWRP. However, i dont see my files there anymore to at least try reflashing the ROM nor even the nandroid backups that I did before.. I dont understand what happened or what I just did and dont know how to reflash my ROM. I have a copy in my computer but is there any way that I can put it in the tablet while in fastboot mode? I tried reflashing the custom recovery using Nexus 7 toolkit but now I cant even access the recovery BUT I can use the flash recovery image temporarily and use it from there.. I hope someone can help me on this.

Thanks in advance!

Charles
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Warren_Orange:
Why can't I spread out the navigation buttons in Phablet mode UI? I am sure that was possible in 5.1.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ashik992:
I'm not sure if I'm the only one with this problem. But my N7 is taking much more time to wake form the sleep after installing 5.2. Specially when charging. Even sometimes it takes a force reboot by long pressing the power button to wake it up. Some times foreground apps crashes when pressing the volume up button. If no app is running than the crash is over the launcher or SystemUI. So what I used to do is press the volume down button first than the volume up button. But I can't remember this everytime.

So, what am I looking at?? Any suggestion??

I did a clean install with full wipe.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] irishobo:
Did you clear user data with tb? That fixed my problems.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DDeveryday:
Just upgraded to the latest version and now I have this white bar in the top of all the apps.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shinyhead:
if you want to get rid of the white line, just increase the size of the status bar font.

I believe default is size 16, but changing to 18 works for me.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ashik992:
I meant clear 'EVERYTHING' when I said full wipe... so that includes user data too...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bsw11:
Is there any way of quickly switching between no nav bar - using PIE to navigate and having a Nav Bar show?

And is there a way to have PIE work when the navbar shows?

I tried using the power button option but that does not seem to work.

Almost back to peak performance with 5.2. Just a little bit more to go.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] GialanG:
What's your max screen on time with this rom? Mine is ~ 7 hours, auto brightness, wifi on and only read news all the time.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Pdj7969:
On 5.1 I got just under 7.5 hours of screen time. I just recently freshly flashed 5.2 after an ill-advised dirty flash left me with some pretty abysmal battery life (less than 24 hours with only about 2 hours of screen time). I have auto-brightness on, wifi on, and I mainly use it to read news via Feedly, surf the Internet, read XDA posts, catch up on Facebook, play a couple casual games (Candy Crush Saga), and perhaps an episode or short movie on Netflix/Hulu.

ADB not working on android, in recovery/fastboot it is.

Hi,

For some odd reason I can't work with ADB through my computer while i'm inside android.:crying:

When I'm at fastboot or recovery - no problem - It works flawlessly.:o

USB debugging is ENABLED all the time.:cowboy:

Any hint would be appreciated.:D:):fingers-crossed:

EDIT: SOLVED THE PROBLEM !

it has to do with the version of ADB I was using ( 1.0.24 I think ).

When I switch to ADB v1.0.31, suddenly I can work with ADB under windows and recovery mode.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Garoto1973:
This rom is awesome, all the hype is true. I love the AOKP "dark" option. This is something I have been trying to do for my phone, I hate the gray gradients on the settings menu and other apps. Not sure if this is a standard AOKP or CM option but I am so happy to have it.

I had some bad lag using Apex when going to the widgets from the apps section in the drawer. I switched to Nova and it is smooth as butter.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gps3dx:
Here is the UPDATE.zip for making

OpenPDroid work

with SmoothROM v5.2, that was fixed by me:

DOWNLOAD HERE. :cool:

( You need to flash the zip in recovery, boot to android and install from market openPDroid manager )

I've been using this rom for about two weeks now and all of a sudden it froze. Restarted it and now my wifi won't go on. It says wifi turning on but does nothing. Any solutions?

I've rebooted, tried fixing permissions wiping caches...idk
[Nexus 7 Android Development] swali77:
Is there any way to disable the ad block feature without reinstalling the ROM? I would like to turn it off while playing a certain game then back on when I'm done. Thanks.

Also, for some reason, my battery started getting really hot with Franco kernel. I flashed LeanKernel 1.7 last night and it seems to have solved the problem.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
You would need to remove the content of the host file in /system/etc
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gps3dx:
@jamesst20

Did you include Mitsuyoshi EXT4 Mod ?

Is EXT "Journaling" disabled with your rom ?:confused:

thanks.

EDIT

short answer: NO.

I managed to check that myself using terminal ( should work with ADB through the computer as well )

tune2fs -l /dev/block/<name of block>

of course I replaced <name of block> with one of the block name I found using the mount command. ( I used mmcblk0p3 which is "/system" )

I ran a benchmark before ( 4349 points ) and after I flash Mitsuyoshi's mod ( 4423 points ) - so there is a small improvement :)

( I checked tune2fs readout after I flashed the mod, and journaling is indeed disabled now )
[Nexus 7 Android Development] awakener777:
Anybody have an issue with wifi not turning on. I can't figure it out for the life of me and it's super annoying!

Trying to do a titanium backup on everything and just reinstall the rom it gets hung up on backing up Wi-Fi Access Points. Could this have something to do with it?

edit: I just tried reinstalling the rom over and I still have the same issue.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gps3dx:
DEV -

I had a problem that somehow my navbar go to be transperent on the homepage of android, and I didn't do that nor want that.

when I checked "Settings->ROM Control->General UI->Transparency Settings", although I got "homescreen alpha" set to be 100%, the navbar was still 100% transperent ! :eek:

only when I change to some other value->saved->changed to 100% again->saved, it solved my problem.:cool:

Please that note.:cowboy::)

Settings>ROM Control>Battery>Battery Icon Style... for the %

Settings>ROM Control>Power Menu... for the volume states.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Hemidroids:
The power menu sound option is not a profile but its better than nothing.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheAtheistReverend:
Sorry about the sound profiles, but there must be something that would work for you. Widgets/Tasker/etc.

But if that is a deal breaker for you, then as I said before: Good luck!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] sw6lee:
Hi guys I'm new to nexus 7 forum, and my first time flashing nexus 7 with a custom rom, but have had plenty of experience with other devices.

I just flashed this rom because it looked promising, but there is a problem. The rom is callled "Smooth ROM" but it fact, there are some places where it is laggier than stock rom. For example, if I drop down notification tray from Home screen (aosp based, like apex, nova, original, and NOT go launcher, etc), the tray comes down in a choppy animation. I had this exact same problem with my galaxy tab 10.1 in the past when I had it.

The notification tray comes down really smooth when within any apps, but choppy only when in homescreen. I was expecting this to be much smoother than stock rom, but i'm kind of disappointed..it's not smoother in my experience.. and quite the opposite. I chose Motley kernel when I flashed. could someone please help me if there is a fix, or if this will be fixed soon, or other stable rom that doesn't have this issue?

Thanks a lot!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Pdj7969:
Sorry to hear you're having problems. SmoothROM runs amazingly on my N7. You need to let the new ROM and kernel settle for a few days. You may also want to try another kernel.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sw6lee:
Hmm..that sounds interesting. I will for sure let it settle for a few days and see if that helps. Thanks for your reply!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] vwirstam:
Do i need to install gapps after flashing this one?

You do not need to flash Gapps. They are included in the Aroma Flasher.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mononon:
I've been using this rom for awhile. It used to be great, but since the update my battery has been draining like crazy. It outdoes my charger. It's fairly annoying. Oddly enough, even on low brightness the battery tab says that 81% of my battery. Even when I don't use the tablet. It's strange.

I did love the rom at one point though. No clue what the problem is with 5.2 but oh well. I tried with Franco and lean kernel but no luck. Shame.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] reade0871:
Not ROM related since not everyone is experiencing the issue. Have you tried rolling back to 5.1 to see? Most likely a config issue or app causing the issue.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Jimi Mack:
No battery issues here as well and I am using Franco with it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheAtheistReverend:
No drain issues here, but the charge rate is slower than it was before. Way slower. Anyone else notice this?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mononon:
Well maybe that is the problem and I just only notice when I'm charging.

I tried switching ROMs but this one is just so smooth. I guess I'll deal with the issues or roll back.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Essentrix:
+1 having battery issues with 5.2. Never use any other ROM than SmoothROM these days but having issues with battery on 5.2/Franco. Seems to be fine for a while then complete drain overnight. Have gone back to 5.1 and voila, fast, smooth, no drain along with great battery life. Will hang out until 5.2 sorted or next version out. That said, all in all genuinely my favorite for Nexus 7! :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] reade0871:
Have you tried a different kernel as a test?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hokiealumnus:
Running 5.2 with franco kernel here and no battery problems to speak of. Running on six days without a charge (granted with very light use recently at about 1.5 hours of screen on time). Still have 24% battery left. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheAtheistReverend:
No complaints on battery life here. Just charging time.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Essentrix:
No havent tried different kernel just different versions of Franco. Mainly because I love the combo with 5.1. Could try lean kernel I suppose but would prefer to stick to Smooth/Franco combo for performance and battery life. Might just hang with 5.1 for time being. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mononon:
I put 5.2 back on mine and it has been a hellish experience. Stuttering like crazy, terrible battery life, freezing when using any torrent app, and so sluggish. At the moment it is the worst experience I've had on my N7.

No clue what's going on.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Well the clue is easy.. You probably didn't wipe your device correctly..
[Nexus 7 Android Development] browy:
May be downgrading to 5.1 with a clean wipe might help.

BTW, if you have the 16 or 32 GB version of the N7 you should try MultiROM. It let you run more than one ROM on your tablet. I use it to compare different ROMs in order to find the one that suits me best. You can also use it to try out new ROMs. You can add a new ROM without having to wipe anything, try it, if you don't like it, delete it, if you do, just keep it and remove the old one, very useful. You also can use it to detect bugs, for example lag and battery drain. If two Roms have the same issue, it's most likely kernel related.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamesst20:
Why not clean flash v5.2 instead 0o
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Mononon:
Because it is causing me so much trouble. It is causing several of us trouble, though I seem to to be having the worst luck.

System UI Stopped Working

Been using this ROM for a while on my Nexus but recently I've had the System UI Stopped working loop error. I've used JROMFlasher on every occasion to rectify the problem....ie completely wiping the device etc etc and I still end up getting the problem.

Is there any solution to this or is it just a case of wiping it everytime it occurs because if thats the case I'm probably going to have to move ROMS as it is becoming a PITA (thats not a dig at the developer or anything as I do like this ROM).

TIA

I have a flashing question. I am going to flash from 5.1 to 5.2. Would it be a problem if I backup my user apps and then restore them after a clean flash of 5.2? I would only be restoring the apps and not the data for most of them. I would only restore the data for some of my games.

Why would it be a problem? Just use Titanium backup. It has all the features you want.

This is the perfect ROM for me in its features and the smoothness I crave. But mobile data is crucial...

All other ROMS have tilapia support but they are terrible, no where near as good as this.
