Any recommendations then?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dilldoe:
did you flash gapps?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Maybe it's just me but didn't he clearly state, and I quote "I did not flash anything other than the ROM itself." Wouldn't this seem to suggest that he did not flash gapps?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adstraylight:
It is my understanding that the system should function perfectly well with or without a gapps installation.

The incompatibility seems to lie within a recent change related to phone.apk. As I don't use my wifi only N7 as a phone, I simply deleted this from system/app after booting with the CM stock kernel. I then flashed m-kernel without issue.

I've already posted this to the M-kernel thread, so we'll see what transpires as far a permanent fix is concerned, but for now the workaround isn't difficult to achieve. Perhaps the Grouper maintainer should just omit this apk from the build..no I don't think this is likely either, as it works with the stock kernel ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] cmlohff:
After a complete wipe of everything and then flashing the ROM and gapps everything is running smoothly. I have yet to try and flash M kernel yet though.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Snoshrk:
Just my 2¢, it's not just mkernel. Same thing happens since the 10/22 nightly & oxydo12 kernel via cyan delta.

Am about to do a full wipe & flash of 10/24.

Snoshrk
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dilldoe:
its not mkernel, no one ever said it was. kernels are not an issue since flashing cm will overwrite any kernel you have with cm's kernel. I only brought it up as an example of what I did to replicate the error, which was flashing multiple zips at once. had issues with 23 & 24 with it not connecting to Google servers, which was easily fix by reflashing gapps.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] alershka:
It can be fixed if you delete or rename the phone.apk from the zip before installing. I had the fcs when I used a custom kernel. No issues with stock so I was able to rename the apk, boot into recovery then install the latest metallice kernel on the 10/23 nightly.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] shayne77:
This is correct. Remove Phone.apk from System/app and it stops it. I wonder why a custom kernel is crashing Phone.apk?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] agentfazexx:
Is CMUpdater acting up for anyone?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] m4rk0358:
Haven't updated in a few days because of the phone.apk issue. Is this still an issue with the 10/28 nightly?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SquireSCA:
Yup!

And rolling back to an earlier version didn't fix it for me, I had to do a factory reset and install an older version to get my tablet to boot.

Stupid really, that such a widely known issue like this is still in there... You would think that it would have been fixed days ago... Weird.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] agentfazexx:
I've never had a phone issue...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Installed it this morning and its working great. Once it booted I deleted the phone.apk and booted into recovery and installed a custom kernel as well. Running great with 10/28 and custom kernel...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] killerfrog:
Hey guys, I was thinking about rooting my Nexus 7 if I can get more battery life. How many screen hours can you get with this rom? With which kernel?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] SquireSCA:
Anyone know if the nightlies are still broken? Not sure why they are including phone.apk on a tablet, but it does cause issues. I know, we can remove it but that is a pain to do once a day when the new broken nightly comes out...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] agentfazexx:
Nightlies have been flawless for me...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SquireSCA:
Then why reply? LOL

They are broken for many people due to phone,apk being included. Not sure why, but lots of people having crashes and issues with that file, and yet it is still included. A lot of us are having to stay on 10/24 release or whatever, due to this...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] agentfazexx:
I replied to give my .02. It's not broken for everyone...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Mr-Glass:
I have not had any of the issues either - knock on wood...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Wow guys that problem couldn't be any easier to fix yourself. Just delete the offending phone.apk and enjoy the latest nightlies. I've run nearly every nightly just fine.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] cmlohff:
While it is an easy fix, it surely shouldn't be something permanent. Is it possible to just delete the phone.apk from the zip file instead of deleting it from system/app every time you flash?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] billyjed:
Just use the addon.d script to remove it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Yes, I believe you can do that also using 7zip but I have not tried that yet. I will try that next time though. I doubt it is a permanent situation and it surely isn't annoying, just a minor few minute extra step to deal with. I do not even know if this has be solved as I just started automatically deleting that file regardless. Anyway, If we were paying customers I would see this differently, lol...

I will download tomorrows nightly and try removing the offending apk via 7zip. Will let ya know what happens as it might corrupt the zip...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] rperez720:
Question? Does anyone else experience crashing when they installed flash player?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adstraylight:
It depends which browser you use, the best atm is Firefox, I haven't been able to play flash content in the aosp browser for weeks now.

I'm guessing that you mean crashes when you attempt to open flash video etc.?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] arjit mehra:
deleting the file with root uninstaller did it for me! Running cm snapshot with FRANCO :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adstraylight:
Metallice has now issued a revised version of M-kernel that fixes this issue (version a63.1), so I guess others will follow suit (if they haven't already).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] !crazy:
Nightlies were not broken, only people who are not using CM kernel complained.

Besides m kernel 63.1 works ok with latest nightly.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
I never once complained and I almost always use a custom kernel for the same reasons I use a custom ROM.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] kehlan:
Anybody tried the snapshot yet?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ae1990:
thats what i came to find out too, please update us
[Nexus 7 Original Development] christophe_de:
I'm running the snapshot right now and everything seems fine. I had to reinstall Youtube.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jaymino:
I'm using it now. I had problems with force closes at first because I used the updater to update and then install gapps after rebooting.

When I installed it from recovery and installed gapps with it it was fine. Using it now and it seems to work great so far.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] agentfazexx:
Reinstall why? Was it missing?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Yep I have been running it since it released. So far so good here :good:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] christophe_de:
It would crash at startup. Even though I had installed the updated gapps. Now it's working fine.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mondokat:
I used the updater to upgrade to the snapshot. No kernels, no new gapps, no complete wipes. Everything is fine. I came from the Halloween nightly...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] phatpaw:
I rolled up to Snapshot from the 10/02 release. Solid. Everything is humming along.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] cmlohff:
Has anyone been experiencing any issues when trying to connect to wifi with the past two or so nightlies? I have tried both with and without M-kernel and both result in an inability to connect to wifi in my dorm room (albeit, the wifi was already average to begin with).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] agentfazexx:
Not me bro
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jordandalley:
Weirdest thing has happened to me.. I have just acquired a Nexus 7 (grouper) which was running stock 4.3 and unrooted.

In my typical style, not a single one of my android devices is like this, so I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, nuked all the partitions and have just flashed the latest CM10.2 nightly cm-10.2-20131106-NIGHTLY-grouper.zip.

I installed this alongside the gapps zip of gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

When it boots, it runs through the normal wizards etc, then once I get to the home screen there's no icon's! Nothing. nada. Not even the app drawer icon.

Any ideas peeps? Never seen this before on my Nexus 4 and HTC One XL.

I have a feeling it may be the launcher, because I managed to run a different launcher and it started working. Just curious as to why Trebuchet doesnt seem to be doing its thing. Let me know if you would like a logcat.

Cheers

---------- Post added at 04:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

Just an update.. I managed to fix this by sliding the top right settings pulldown menu and tapping the "Settings" icon.

I then went to "Apps" --> "All" --> "Trebuchet"

I tapped "Force Stop" then "Clear data".

This fixed it up.

Very strange for a brand new install.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] veener79:
I just installed the last nightly. I can not get the play store to work. All other Google apps work fine. They Play Store states in can not connect. I have gone through settings and can not find a issue. Am I missing something? Thank you for any help.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] maigre:
Same problem for me since installing 1102-snapshot-m1. The latest nightly, 1108 or 1109 doesn't help. I can connect to my router, but the curved bars on the slice of pie indicator are gray. With the latest nightly, some apps do have internet access, though. But Gmail doesn't, my time widget on the lockscreen doesn't, lots of things don't. Strange that some do, though. My other Android devices, not using CM, get onto the same networks just fine.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] corumuk:
Decided to take the plunge today.

Was unlocked and rooted (thanks WUG), but otherwise stock.

Flashed TWRP using goomanager.

Wiped Cache/Dalvik/System

Installed ROM and GAPPS.

Then....20 mins of the cyanogenmod loading screen going around and around....

Hmm.

After much hair pulling, a factory reset (wiping all data) and messing around with wug's toolkit I eventually got it to install from a USB OTG using TWRP.

I'm having trouble with setting wallpaper, using quickpic, but have also tried zedge and flikie, whatever I try seems to get cropped and zoomed making it look ugly.

My understanding was that the wallpaper should be twice the width plus the height, i.e. 1600 x 1280, or an image with an equivalent aspect ratio i.e.1:1.25 but alas this doesn't seem to work it still crops and zooms.

Any tips?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] inchoate:
Just thought I'd share some more info about the folder shortcut issue i mentioned a few posts ago. I tried my folders on the latest nightly, and it worked fine. The difference is that i had switched around the transition.

For all my previous problems, it had been on stack. I hadn't even thought of changing that. Since it was working, i started messing around, changing the transition, and it worked perfectly until i got to stack, at which point it repeated the problem exactly as before.

I don't know if it matters what's on the other screen, although it never happened with it blank.

Short form: set multiple home screens, set transition to stack, put something on a non default screen (preferably folder shortcuts), see what happens.

Probably back up first.

Has anyone managed to find a Gapps that allows Picasa to work in Gallery?

Edit: It's OK, I solved it the same way as I did with my GS3. I installed the Nexus 4 camera/gallery and it worked perfect.

Anyone here using nova launcher over trebuchet? Just wondering what launcher people are using :)

Yeah I've had that problem too with all these official cm10.1 builds. Don't know what to do
[Nexus 7 Original Development] HamsterHam:

[Nexus 7 Original Development] ortrigger:
It's pretty smooth for me. Haven't really had any issues so far.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] eak1080:
There are/have been Trebuchet updates being pushed to the source for the past few days. Many new features/speed enhancements built into the framework/overlay.

I keep it stock CM, though third party launchers have features which some like.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheAtheistReverend:
Another vote for apex!

What kernel is everyone running? I'm thinking about trying lean kernel and/or Clem's.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ridearoundsolo:
I like the new features in trebuchet but I've never been a fan of how wallpapers look larger than stock launcher displays them
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Pielvrx:
Nova launcher/prime. Love the features. Awesome dev support
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sNoxious:
I love Nova Launcher too, but having Tablet UI/Feature on my Nexus 7 would be perfect. That's why I use Apex on my Nexus 7 instead because of that feature. :)

Can you share it?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Lodberg:
There is a how to in OP.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] di3cbl:
Using stock launcher cos I like the layout of the app drawer in landscape mode :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] corumuk:
Following on from my earlier post, thought i'd give Apex launcher a try and bingo, wallpaper problem fixed. A bug in Trebuchet perhaps.

Whats happened to the nighties? Last one on CM updater is the 9th. On grouper last one is today.

Just tried using two of my bluetooth stereo headsets with the N7 - I searched the thread but did not come up with anything.. Is there a power save setting for bluetooth? When the screen is on the bluetooth is fine, when the screen is off it will go in and out.. I have checked both headsets with my other devices and do not have the same issue, just curious if anyone else is seeing this and if there is a fix..
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bostro:
Me too, my tablet (wioth 10.1) has found the 10.2 snapshot and i flashed it, but now i can't connect to wifi! :'(

EDIT 12/11/2013:

Hi guys, some can tell me if latest nightly solves the problem with wifi? or is it better if i come back to 10.1?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] OGroteKoning:
Not sure what wifi problem you are referring to, but 10.2 20131111-NIGHTLY-Grouper works fine here.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bostro:
You can see report from other users some post before mine.

After flashing snapshot-m1 my wifi sees networks, seems to connect, but really i am not connected.

I tried with today nightly and nothing to do, i can not connect.

I flashed snapshot-m1 from CM 10.1 after cyanogen updater tells me there was a stable release of 10.2
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WoodmanMN:
Backup, factory reset, reflash nightly, all will be well.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] m4rk0358:
Anyone try the CM installer app? Would it allow me to bypass this manual flashing process each day?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Steph310:

[Nexus 7 Original Development] bostro:
Sigh... :crying: There's no way, without losing all data?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WoodmanMN:
Just use Titanium backup to back up the apps, copy it to Dropbox or your computer, nandroid backup, wipe, reload. The data (pics, music, etc) can all be copied to Dropbox or your pc too. There is no reason to lose data.

When riding the nightly train, if you have odd glitches, backup and reload is a simple way to resolve the issue.

official 4.4

With the release of official 4.4 for this device, does the time to create a stable cm11 change?

(does it become easier with official 4.4)

NOT asking about an eta, just wondering about the dev process.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Mr-Glass:
Absolutely! :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] giugiu:
Hello all,

I've an issue. I have flashed Franco's r75 on one of the latest CM (... I remembered too late that there's the ramdisk issue...). Now the phone process hangs and I cannot use the device at all.

I had not activated the advance menu so I cannot reboot in recovery mode (I always used the cmupdater app, damn!).

By pressing volume keys + power button I can show the boot options menu (start, reboot, recovery, turn off) but the device doesn't start in recovery mode. It hangs on Google Logo and I cannot reach recovery. So... I cannot flash a flashable zip or try to re-flash a cm nightly. I thought to re-flash latest touch recovery via fastboot but in thread the only way explained is via Goo.im.

Only way... using fastboot...

Right now I'm downloading latest cm nightly, to see if I can extract something to flash via fastboot (... if I can make the device visibile by this laptop...) Which files should I flash? boot.img?

What do you suggest?

Thank you,

Giulio

---------- Post added at 12:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ----------

Ok guys, solved by

- installing WUGS toolkit (wow, fantastic!)

- extracting boot.img from latest cm nightly (simply unzipped the boot.img)

- flashing the boot.img with WUGS toolkit

no more phone service hanging! ;)

The device reboot in recovery via the advance reboot menu of cyanogenmod. I will then give a look why it does not with the soft keys + power button...

Ciao,

Giulio

I always get the android with the red exclamation point when trying to go into Recovery (stock or cwr). I'm still on 10.2-20130927 nightly. I already got notifixations of updates but can't do it because I can't get into Recovery. What to do?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] kinggame992000:
Any1 know why all the link on the get.cm point to app cm installer in Google play?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] weirdsciencex:
The Android with the red exclamation mark is the stock recovery.

Easiest easy would be to either use wugs nexus toolkit or if your comfortable with fastboot download your recovery of choice then use

fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.img

I returned my N7 to stock to give kit kat a try, found it lacking and slow, so I re-rooted and did a clean flash to 111713. Working fine overall except it crashes the mail app (stock one) when I set up a pop3 account. It crashes when I confirm outgoing settings. Anyone able to confirm?

Again, clean flash, no restored data, and happens after reboot, after fixing permissions too.

Edit-

Did some playing around with it, wiped clean, flashed 111413, no email issues. Updated all my data, configured email, confirmed working. Rebooted recovery (TWRP 2.6.3.0), wiped dalvik, cache, installed1117, rebooted, email broken. Would not open app.

So anyone else running 1117 able to confirm email is broken? I rolled back to 1114, cleared data, reinserted email info, working fine.

Did not test Exchange or IMap.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] !crazy:
Cannot confirm because I'm not using the mail app (only gmail.) but if you look at the last changelog you will see a ton of email app related commits. I wouldn't be surprised if something went wrong. It will probably be fixed in next nightlies.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WoodmanMN:
I did notice that. I'll wait a few days and flash an update.

Thanks.

Not all devices get an RC, mostly it's for problem devices. Nexus 7 must be easy. :cool:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mondokat:
Ok, i understood the RC thing, but no stable release for grouper? Other than wanting to do a staggered deployment, I can't really think of a good reason to not include grouper in the stable releases yet...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] russell1997:
Yeah? Where's 10.2.0?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] fattire:
It's coming-- I guess they used the same list for RC1 as 10.2 and somehow it was overlooked. But the nightlies were built, and dec 3 nightly is more or less 10.2 release until it gets added.

May I ask noob question?

From cm 10.2 can I update to 11 just by flashing through recovery without full wipe?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Ja_som:
Yes you can. I did, and no problems... If you have problems, then make wipe. Don't forget to make backup before flash CM11
[Nexus 7 Original Development] harrvester:
I currently use rastakat + franco kernel and I'm quite happy. Is cm11 working smoother? What can you say about the battery life? And if I install cm11 what kernel should I use? I know that Franco is not compatible. Does CM has his own custom kernel or it's recommended to install a new one?
