I wouldn't try it, I tried to flash and started to have weird issues with things like the ffc not turning off for the keep awake feature and some motion features not working. If you want to try it, you can install it through pimp my rom.

I need a developer's help!

I am trying to use dd in terminal to write an image file to an sd card. I'm a novice linux user. The command I'm trying to use is:

dd if=/sdcard/SDCardImage14.img of=/dev/?

If it helps, the only mention of extSdCard when executing "mount" command is /dev/block/void/179:17 /storage/extSdCard ETC ETC ETC

if the "df" command is helpful, I didn't see anything listed after executing it that looked like a reference to a sd card.

I am running rooted stock 4.1.2 on my i317.

Sorry, I don't know how, but FYI your rom works on Turbo Kernel 3.1 now.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bladebarrier:
While I've flashed a good share of ROM's on my Droid X in the past, it had a locked bootloader. As such, I never really learned much about custom Kernels.

Unlike the stock ROM for the Droid X, I'm very happy with the stock ROM on the N7.

I'm unlocked, and rooted on the N7, and very happy with how it performs.

Is there something I'm missing out on? I don't care about OC'ing it, because it's plenty fast. UV'ing it would be nice, but is there a good app that would do that for me, without having to mess around data wipes, and possible incompatibilities when updates are released?

Basically, I read through a bunch of the kernel posts, and aside from over clocking, or under volt'ing, I'm not sure I understand all the hype. I mostly see people saying that one kernel causes problems with certain ROM's, and another one causes other issues, and another works great with a certain custom ROM. Is there some really big performance gain, say in wifi range, or battery life, from any of these to make it worth the bother?

The only things I really care about are wifi range, battery life, and gps strength. Honestly, all of those are already really good just on stock, but I can't think of any real flaws, so nudge me in the right direction, if you would.

Are custom kernels worth it for someone like me? Are there good root apps that improve wifi reception range a bit, or extend battery life a tad, or speed up gps acquisition a little? Would a custom kernel do any of that anyways?

Regards,

--bb

// I should mention that I'm on 4.2.1, the HSPA+ model (but don't frequently use the cell connection).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leonhan:
I am using stock as well but I'm using the M-Kernel. Pretty good battery life and good on performance too. You should give it a try.:D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bladebarrier:
Thanks for the suggestions. I guess I'll just jump in and experiment with those.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95Z28:
A custom kernel won't do any of the 3 things you listed, extend WiFi, speed up GPS, improve battery life. I've tried most of the kernels available for the nexus 7 and only use a custom (omega) because It slightly smooths out a couple games I play daily. Battery life has never increased under the same usage for me, though some kernels did decrease battery life.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bladebarrier:
Gotcha, thanks for the response. I'll skip it then. It sounds like I'm not a good candidate for such things.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdhall:
I didn't do any extensive battery life tests on the stock kernel, but after flashing motley I compared stock voltage to undervoltage (both while overclocked), and undervolting gave significant improvements.

OP, you mention you're happy with the performance at stock, but I'd give overclocking a try anyhow. My N7 was snappy to begin with, but after overclocking, it's insane.

So i recently got myself a Samsung galaxy s3 mini and after disabling my Facebook, Skype contacts from my phone book to show just sim contacts i thought that would be it. I notice that when i want to send a text message to someone all my contacts show from all my accounts. I'm not sure how to get rid of these, I don't want to delete the accounts just hide them. Does anyone know how to hide other contacts from sms contact list and only show sim contacts

Here is some more work i have been doing.

Provision 4 NS4G Port 4.1.2 JellyBean

If you are not currently running the ns4g modem, you can get one of the modem flashables here http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1077168

Or flash the latest cm10 AIO ns4g patch located in the ns4g AIO modem patch thread located in our development forum before flashing the ROM. May need to reboot to recovery and flash a second time to get modem to stick. Then flash as normal. ROM, gapps, inverted gapps.

I added some features

CM wallpapers

AOKP Wallpapers

CM file

and a few more

Hope you enjoy i know i have been for a few days

Working

Everything that i know of

How to install:

MAKE BACK UP OF YOUR CURRENT ROM

NAV BAR IS BUILT IN TO ROM IF YOU WANT TO REMOVE IT THIS IS HOW TO DO IT.

Very easy to do.

•Edit system/build.prop to change qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

it is the very last line in prop

This Rom does not eat up a ton of memory and i love the layout.

Just wait till you check out the status bar pull down...;)

The best battery life on any rom i have ever seen
[Epic 4G Android Development] aoaleman:
Best battery life indeed! My wife reports her battery currently states 50% and it's been off the charger since early this morning. (9 hours running) Thank you! :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] bthorne79:
I couldn't even get my wife to run the ROM she was happy with cm9.1 but once things are in place she don't like to change anything she is afraid to loose info or app data
[Epic 4G Android Development] tnynyn:
Just wanted to say great ROM. Came straight from TPR and battery life is the same (if not better) for me. Hope you get 4g working in the next build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lcovel:
Just curious, what kind of battery life are you getting? Mine lasts me all day with normal use. But I haven't came across a ROM yet that could give me almost 3 days normal use on my stock battery like TPR or RandomROM did.

Even tho I dont get that kind of longevity on this one, I will definitely be sticking with it and looking forward to 4g on it in the future if possible.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tnynyn:
Wow, I never got 3 days of normal use even on TPR. My normal usage 8am-6pm (work hours) is pretty much lots of texting/gtalk, some fb, some music, little phone talk time, and some misc usage (i.e. yelp, news, weather). 4G on most of the time. Didn't use much wifi. Did not use bluetooth at all.

I've been monitoring my battery from that daily usage for awhile and here's what I experienced:

CM9.1 = 8am - 6pm battery gets to ~30%

TPR = 8am - 6pm battery gets ~50%

Provision 4 = 8am - 6pm battery gets to ~60% (on third day so far, but that's what I've been getting)

My daily was CM9.1 for the longest time (I can't remember the ROM I used before that) Then switched to TPR near end of January. My experience is usually I'd have to recharge when I get home on CM9.1, TPR and Provision4 I can go out after work without needing to recharge
[Epic 4G Android Development] bthorne79:
I will look into the 4g like before if you look in to system all the files are there it is just not showing up in the setting menu for somereason but if I swap the setting out for our CM10 we loose provision settings I don't know how to do apk work to mod framework
[Epic 4G Android Development] bthorne79:
Now I will be off on Tues and Wed I will do some testing with provision control and setting to see what I come up with and compare cm10 to provision
[Epic 4G Android Development] tnynyn:
Nice! I'll try to play around and compare configs with CM10 over the weekend even though I don't know much lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] lcovel:
Keep up the good work. I only have sporadic 4g coverage. Just the idea of seeing 4g working on this ROM is the cats meow.
