error in updating

I am currently using vanir prime (android 4.3)...i cant seem to flash the vanir (android 4.4) onto my nexus 7...it gives an error "set_metadat_recursive:some changes failed

Error executing updater binary in zip 'sdcard/xxxx/

Error flashing zip..."

and flashing fails

please help me..i have tried Vanir and Xenon hd (both 4.4 android)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] poo706:
Probably need to update your recovery.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Souron29:
If u have flashed any previous nightly successfully then replace its meta-inf folder with the working one's
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Rapture Veteran:
I couldnt really think of a specific area to ask this since its not just Vanir specific, but its an active thread so i figured ill ask here

I have a Grouper, 2012 wifi only nexus 7 and 4.4.2 is HELLA slow on my thing. Takes almost 30 mintues to get through the google apps setup and then everything afterwards is slow and boggy.

i think its google apps based.

i installed just Vanir, w/o google apps, and it flies. Any ideas regarding fixing this? Is the nexus 7 just not capable of handling the upgrade to 4.4.2 and do i need to specifically stick with 4.3 w/ 4.3 google apps?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Erovia:
N7 is more than capable of handling KK. Which GApps package are you using? Stick to the PA 0-day package.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] zedmarcus:
Kk was built to run on lower spec devices, so no problems running it on the N7. Vanir flies on my device.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ebsbow:
Sorry, but 4.4.2 is just fine over here.

Did you use an back to recover your data?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sauravdante:
updating recovery worked :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Rapture Veteran:
running the lightest PA package possible, which is all i need. device is still hella sluggish.

edit: something must have gone wrong from a 4.3 to 4.4 update. I just sucked it up and did a factory reinstall with the 4.4.2 image from this forum. deleted EVERYTHING, now its running fast
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Bipo:
Just updated to latest version. Very good so far (best rom IMHO, doesn't slow down with time passing). But now i wonder:Is there any 4.4.2 kernel working at this time? I would like to use doubletap2wake :) Already installed it on my phone: you get used to it really fast.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Bert98:
M-Kernel has this feature, look on Original Development section :)

I am not sure what's wrong, but the 2/7 build switched to ART just fine, but the 2/21 build always gets stuck on bootscreen...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MarcAntonyy:
Two quick questions:

1) Aesthetics: Does this ROM look like KK (white text, overscroll glow, etc) or pre-KK (blue text, overscroll glow, etc)? If not, can it be customized to a dark UI/holo blue look?

2) Version: Stability/smooth ride is priority. Is there a known popular build date or should I just flash the latest (2/23)?

Thx
[Nexus 7 Android Development] LucentBirch:
1) Looks and acts like KK, no issues there

2) I am on the 2/21 build, stock everything, and it runs beautifully. I used to use faux123 or m-kernel, but there recently been significant lag with opening up the app switcher for me. Not sure why though.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MarcAntonyy:
Thanks for the quick response. I realized I wasn't clear with my #1.

My preferred UI is the Dark Holo Blue UI of pre-KK. I know many people have moved on and/or love the new white, but it grates my eyes.

I recognize this is a great ROM I want to try out, but I am curious whether it can be customized to have the pre-KK, Dark Holo Blue UI, look.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Swede2008:
I think the vanir theme that is installed with the rom has the the blue, not 100% sure though and can't check because I uninstalled it

Edit: I do remember that the preview image for the theme has blue icons lol
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MarcAntonyy:
Gracias! Will be installing this evening.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Enzomatrx:
I notice it's doing the "back button in landscape launches Google Now" a little less with recent builds. But it does happen.

I use Nova Launcher but cannot find anything from uses of that to point it toward Nova being the problem.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pepetops:
Hi. I use 2_21 build and I don't know if is normal when I try to change navbar icon I can't see any changes. Must I reboot for see the difference?

[Nexus 7 Android Development] fKm:
No matter what I do, I can not get ART to work with this ROM. I just flash it, let it boot, go to developer options, activate ART and reboot. That is all, it is stuck at boot logo then. Even wiping cache and dalvik does not work.

On other ROMs ART is working flawless. I really want Vanir on my N7 because it works soooooo good on my N5 :(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] swieder711:
Did a clean install of Mar-1 release. Install went fine. Everything appears to be working.

Very sluggish, especially when in the settings area with 5 to 10 seconds of delay from tapping a setting until the entry is recognized.

My kernel is showing as nuclearmistake 3.1.10. I changed the govenor to performance and bumped the min clock speed to 384M which helped a bit.

Any other suggestions?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] riven67:
I had this issue also, go into settings, interface, navigation ring. Change it to more then 3 I set mine to 4. This will fix the back button opening Google now. It is not actually the back button but the nag ring not centering Google now and for some reason it gets activated when we use the back button. By making more than 1 spot on the ring it offsets the position and removes the issue.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] 4catalyst2cI:
You could flash a different kernel... I'm using franko.kernel have no issues at all.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] swieder711:
I did a factory reset since I was having problems with multiple Roms. After the reset I installed Vanir and it's running great.

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] LucentBirch:
yeah, once I went to the 2/21 build and beyond I cannot get ART to work. It's really quite annoying...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] 4catalyst2cI:
Art has worked on almost every build I have tried . some times flashing a build on top of another breaks things. If you wipe system as well as data/ cache/dalvic I have found everything works properly.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Enzomatrx:
Wonderful! Thank you!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] LucentBirch:
I'm not sure what has changed but there seems to be a graphical flicker that occurs on the latest nightly. Mostly happens when pulling down notification menu and quick setting, the navigation bar flickers and this never happened before.

Also, has anyone tried putting their tablet in tablet mode? Lowering the dpi to 160? I don't know if that's something that's been taken out, but it wasn't working on mine.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] racenrich:
Hey all,

I've been running this build since Feb of this year; have had only one or two hiccups, but not sure if it was me or the ROM. i do periodically get a FC, but nothing that warrants a failure. Great job to the Dev(s) that keep the tablet updated!

Looks like i should be flashing the latest, as ive been running the 03-09....

LucentBirch...i changed my DPI to 160 and all works well...what are you using to change? i edited my build.prop

Cheers,

Rich K.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ebsbow:
I must concur, really enjoying this rom. Only thing that fc's are the Performance settings for some reason.

There are settings under 'Voodoo' that you can use to change the DPI. I's hidden under the 'more' section.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dvdivx:
never had a fc on a vanir rom on the grouper but have given up ever using it. In landscape the back key launches google now and it's never been fixed. So I've just given up even trying it at this point. Only happens on the Grouper too.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] 4catalyst2cI:
Settings, interface ,Navigation ring ,change the number of targets to 5 and the back button will no longer launch Google now.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] billydroid:
Can anybody running this rom , recommend a oc kernel that works well with this?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Swede2008:
M-kernel a67 is what I use currently
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ebsbow:
Don't have the back problem in land scape, but there is always an workaround for that if the problem persists.

In any case it doesn't seem to be an Vanir bug.(correct me if I am wrong)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] riven67:
check this post for fix

#2427
[Nexus 7 Android Development] PrimeDirective:
did you try a clean flash of the march build to make sure this isn't an app issue? there's nothing in those logs indicating a problem. other than an error caused by an error happening. do me a favor and go back back a little further in the log and look for a segfault. it will have memory addresses and a lot of numbers in blocks. Also, try to get closer to the exact date the issue started happening.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Enzomatrx:
I ran out of time before testing one build but I can tell you:

3/18 works

3/21 doesn't work (there's no 3/20)

I didn't test 3/19 but obviously that would be my next step. So sometime between 3/18 and 3/21 it broke.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] PrimeDirective:
the dead object exception is because the memory allocation was cleared from the stack during the crash even though a reference remained in the heap in the VM. that's supposed to be there. The segfault is entirely from the app. none of the code involved is from the ROM libraries. You should send the stack trace to the app developers.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Enzomatrx:
I'm going to test 3/19 tomorrow just to finalize the whole "did something change" thing.

No idea what it could be but there's definitely something between builds. EA does Scrabble and they don't listen to anything but maybe they have a "technical" address for real dumps to help out.

surprised it only seems to affect Scrabble.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Enzomatrx:
Works on 3/19 Build.

So it works on 3/19, does not work on the next build (3/21).

Was there any major change there that could have impacted this? If not I'll just set up shop on 3/19 and randomly try new builds hoping maybe something is fixed.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] fantabrothe:
hi mates, i've returned on vanir rom after some months with stock kk and i'm really surprised, i've found a lot of new features and now i'm running fine with art enabled.

One thing: i can't find the "old" options concerning performance settings and vanir tweak, dunno if it's normal....anyway i'm using trickster mod to try different governor and options.

Personally i don't like omni features but i love the immersive mode option, i find it more immediate than pie controls...so, great work as always!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] eawooten:
Strange things are happening

I'm having some trouble with my N7 running Vanir. Everything is fine most of the time it works, but every now and then, the device just freezes up.

I tried to update to a newer version, but none of my rom flashes seem to take. I've also noticed that none of my files or changes on the device persist after a reboot. This includes apps installed, roms downloaded, or really anything that I put on the device.

I also can't seem to do anything with fastboot or TWRP recovery, so this might not even be a rom issue, but any help would be appreciated.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] theoctavist:
due to work out of country, i have been away from the device for approx 8-9 months.

I am running a build of AOSP vanir from december 2013. i tried the latest update and it fragged the device.

is there something I should do between the old build and new one? i am assuming since the old one is JB or whatever, and the new one is kitkat, I may need a new bootloader or something?

i want to stay with this ROM (on all my devices) and just want the latest build. it is the original n7 32gig

also, while im here, are there any kernels that work particularly well with the latest builds ? ive been out of the tech loop.

thank you.

please remember my fallen brothers and sisters this memorial day. for us it is every day.

It has persisted regardless of kernel choice.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] golfnz34me:

Yep here too. It appeared as though a clean flash helped but nope. Op /Dev what do you need from us to help diagnose...?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] riggerman0421:
Just wondering what kernel you're running? I have the 6/17 build with the m67 kernel and everything has been running perfectly since installation early this morning.

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 PM ----------

One more thing. Is there a specific process to convert this rom to f2fs? I see the app in play, but did not know if there was another way. Saw the XDA thread but it only had instructions for slimkat and PA. I'm not leaving vanir.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] theoctavist:
Also toggling see touch area in Dev options makes the device go psychedelic
[Nexus 7 Android Development] golfnz34me:
Just another observation, the apps that won't run are all of my purchased apps. Free apps run just fine. Maybe the GApps (More specifically, the Play Store) are not fully compatible with this build?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] theoctavist:
Maybe so. I've noticed that with time thk keyboard loses its bearing… goes crazy etc

i've compiled a beta for ATOM on grouper. it's vanir with additional bug fixes, features, speed improvements, and upstream code improvements being tested for vanir. These builds are my personal builds that i leave on the devices when i'm not developing. think PRIME if you remember it. The link is on my google+

if you are interested please add me on google+. if i get enough support and adds then it could become regular for me to compile for you.
