Hi guys past few days iv been getting a pop up that says (Unfortunately Google play services has stopped) and the Recommended for you widgets dont work properly, meaning they work one minuet and then they dont it just highlights but does not take you to play store, I also get (No recommendations found) and the widget is blank, iv had the widget issue before on another Rom but not the pop up play store error, any idea whats causing this I did not find out what was causing widget issue when I was on other Rom.:confused:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Did you full wipe before switching roms?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
I wiped cache/ dalvik cache/ and factory reset, I'm not suggesting its Rom related with the widgets, but I wasn't getting the pop up play store error until a few days now, the widget issue I was hoping someone come across this issue as I didn't solve it on last Rom.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Try a system partition wipe along with a fresh install.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
If I wipe system partition as well will my apps still auto download after I re- setup?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ameinild:
No, you'll need to backup and restore your apps AND app data using Titanium, ROM Toolbox, or by backing up and restoring your entire data partition...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
Damn thats not the answer I was looking for I suppose ill have to give it a go:)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Unfortunately it's what comes along ith flashing custom ROMs. If you want them to work properly you have to isntall them properly.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] greekmanx:
ok I feel stupid download this rom now and getting gapps is the newest version really that old 03/01/13 I mean 3 months old?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Yes.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] greekmanx:
So how long would it take device to update all gapps not ones in play store like Google play services and pay store it self
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Dr.Gasmo:
10 minutes and it happens in the background just f@# do it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] greekmanx:
thanks don't mean to be a pain just didn't want to have issues like the new play store. I will suck it up
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tjamzt:
Does this ROM have the option to move the nav bar to the side instead of the bottom in landscape mode?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Not natively.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Nark.GA60:
Actually, my apps all come down when I first log in to the phone/tablet.

The data is a different matter... Depends on whether that was included in the original question.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
Hi

no im fully aware of data, was asking more for apps as I have a few of them, I also aware that I can backup on titanium but its just the hassle of reinstalling them one by one, anyway I haven't got round to trying it yet so im hoping your right:)

Very true but I didn't think wiping system partition was necessary. :o
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pepo930:
Does this ROM have multiple users (or all 4.2.2 ROMS have it)?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
yes
[Nexus 7 Android Development] brunoavrocha:
This thing is fast!

Thank you
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bjcrj:
I agree! Back on it after a flashing frenzy. Fast and stable, looking forward to 4.70. Great job sentinel!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] brunoavrocha:
My s status bar is not showing properly

The quick settings I can't swipe it down. Why?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Have you flashed a mod?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] brunoavrocha:
No mods here. Just rom. I've only enabled lime pie controls
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
It could well have something to do with the pie controls you flashed. Go back to completely stock with a fresh install and see if that fixes it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veryjiggy:
I just rooted my Nexus 7 and installed this ROM. It *is* super-fast! Thank you so much!

Only one issue. My Gallery isn't showing any pics at all. Nothing happens even if I disable and re-enable sync.

Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Did you come from a 4.2.2 ROM? It may be that you need to copy your images and data over to the new 0 folder structure.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veryjiggy:
I actually came from stock. I know it wiped all images on my tablet, but it should still sync with my Picasa albums and show all those albums in my Gallery? (My sync options are enabled)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
I'm not sure why then mate. No-one else is reporting an issue and it works fine on all my devices.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] veryjiggy:
Ok no worries. It's a minor issue anyhow. Thanks for the quick response!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] pmgreen:
Having a strange issue, when I go to storage, there no values for size, cache, etc. I get errors when trying to update apps from google play.

Experienced something similar with my phone, where the app was on the memory card. But stumped as to what I did since we don't have a card. Appreciate any help
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Try wiping your caches
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pmgreen:
I booted into recovery and wiped Cache and Dalvik Cache. Still have the issue. On storage it sticks on "calculating"

Should I reflash?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
I'm not sure mate. It could be that your storage has been corrupted somehow. Maybe back-up your files and do a full wipe to see if that fixes it.

nandroid backup first though so you can restore if need be :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bjcrj:
Sentinel, the thing I like most about your ROM is that everything just works. I have had zero issues, none whatsoever. Not only does it work great, it works fast. Very smooth and speedy. I am really enjoying your ROM. Thank you!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Thanks mate. I really appreciate the feedback :)

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Rcoil73:
No oftence but do you think franco kernel may be a better alternative than your compiled kernel in terms of performance and battery life?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bjcrj:
Compiled kernel equals no issues for all users, Franco equals some issues for some users. I would leave it up to the user.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Rcoil73:
Foldermount is not working here. May I know what's the problem? It's supposed to support android 4.2.2
[Nexus 7 Android Development] panowolf:
Just got this nexus about a week ago and been using this rom since day 1. After following all the steps provided and having a good experience with performance in this ROM. There are a few things I have noticed while fidgeting around in the settings.

1. Performance tab - The system doesn't save values, no matter what frequency & schedule I set for the CPU. When I leave out of settings and go back in, the settings are back to default (CPU Clock Speed). I've tried fixing permissions, the usual wipes, reboots, re-DL & Flash, nothing seems to work.

Using an app such as setcpu will save the data and the clock speeds stay where I set them.

2. DSP manager settings - No matter what I try to set, it doesn't change the sound output from the device. Presets do not work, equalizer doesn't work, no settings/options effect audio output.

Using an app such as Music Equalizer will save the data (as long as the app is running/shows in the notification dropbar)

I tried side loading a few "fixes" from the net, but none seem to work.

(On a different note. Perhaps I'm not searching hard enough but... Beings as I have the wifi only 16gb model, would that have anything to do with these problems?)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] CharliesTheMan:
I think the cpu settings not sticking is a feature of the N7 that has to be disabled if that patch isn't already in the kernel. Its been so long though I don't remember the specifics.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nkgangew:
Holy wow! Charlie, you run Sentinel??? I run it on my one and I was just about to try it on my N7!! Nice to run into you!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] CharliesTheMan:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] pegasus912:
I flashed the 4.3 Google factory image thinking it would be on par with this ROM, boy was I wrong. Lag and bad battery life sent me running back to this rom. I'm not going back stock with my Nexus 7 ever again. Sentinel ROM 4.75 still going strong!

Hey Sentinel :)

I was using your rom as my daily driver for months. I was starting to think SentinelROM for the N7 had been abandoned so I ended up switching to a 4.3 based rom only just last week. If you're working on it again then I'd be more than happy to help beta test v5.00. :good:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Thanks. PM sent.

Hi everyone,

Important information regarding future development HERE

Thank you!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] AssailantLF@gmail.com:
This looks awesome and like the new SmoothROM potentially, the way you have it streamlined and simplified and set up. The developer of SR switched from a CM base in v4 to AOKP in v5 and I really dislike it personally by comparison. Cyanogenmod just feels so much more official and polished, despite having less options or w/e. The main attraction in this is the boasted performance and smoothness, so I'll be sure to compare with ParanoidAndroid and post back!

:D

EDIT: Antutu 15240, Quadrant 5250. Really great scores, better than ParanoidAndroid on my Nexus 7. Generally smooth and quick with start up times and browsing even with Chrome like you said. Temple Run 2, one of the only games to originally give my device

slight

slowdown at max settings, is running perfectly fine with zero stuttering or slowness.

Quadrant in particular just flew by. This is a fantastic rom, even if the Nexus 10 screenshot is a little misleading as if it might have a tablet UI. Very eager about future updates. please don't go to the dark side and go all AOKP or something eventually

[Nexus 7 Android Development] AssailantLF@gmail.com:
Just a heads up for anyone who might see this, even if it isn't directly part of the rom and just Android in general: If you have the magnification gestures turned on in Settings > Accessibility, then it'll cause a delay with certain apps/games like Super Hexagon and emulators. I was really bothered by it the past few days, and I finally had the idea to turn off magnification, which was totally the problem.

For anyone wanting a dual-pane view like the Nexus 10 or ParanoidAndroid or any other tablet UI, you can do it very easily with Xposed Framework.

All you do is

1. Install this apk (from the main thread), click Install/Update, and reboot.

2. Install this apk (a module/add on for dpi/resolution change) and reboot a second time.

3. Go into Xposed App Settings which is the 2nd app installed, and any app that has Screen (dp,px) set to 800x1200 will act as if it were a tablet app. This includes Settings, YouTube, anything that looks different with a tablet.

If any graphics are too big/small, you can change the DPI, but 160-190 is pretty good most of the time. It's pretty simple and mostly cool, and should work on just about any rom. The attached screenshots show my settings for the Android Settings to have a dual pane and some examples.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Nice one!

Working on a new build now. I hope to have it ready by next weekend.

What kernels and tweaks are you guys using, so I can get an idea of what might be some good things to include in the ROM?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] monsterofmen:
First of all, thanks for your work on this rom! I was hoping in the next build you can include the DRM needed to watch Hulu Plus. I had to get it from /system/vendor/lib from a backup to make it work on this ROM.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ethested:
M-Kernel and Franco Kernel are very popular.

Just found this ROM page.

I am a big fan of smoothROM and it is working really well but as the wife puts it i have to constantly try other opperating systems on the pc, phone, and now tablet.

I have been a big fan of CM10 so looking forward to playing around with it.

Looks good from the screenshots.

Will give it a go and post back....

May have found a new daily driver :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
HAHA! I used to be the same, flashing a new ROM every day. I got over it though.

I build SentinelROM as stable and tested as possible with the idea of it offering a great stable daily driver base ROM, which users can add their own tweaks to if desired.

I hope you enjoy it!

If you're still looking for possible additions, this is a mod type thing that does a bunch of tweaks for performance and battery and others, and so far it's been working really well on my rom. I'm not sure of all the specifics or if it might conflict with some of your tweaks, but definitely take a look. The author says to PM him or something if it gets included in any custom roms, he's an advocate of open source stuff so there's that. :D

Eager for the next update!

Re: [09/03/13][ROM][4.2.2][SentinelROM] v4.00 - CM10.1 Source - Fast, Stable, Themed

Still running this ROM on my nexus 7. Haven't found the urge to flash any other. ROM is flawless and extremely smooth. +battery life:)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
SentinelROM v4.10 for Nexus 7 is up...

30/03/2013:-

v4.10 -

*Updated to latest CM10.1 source (Android 4.2.2)

*Kernel and ROM tweaks for improved performance

*Improved battery life

*Added a free copy of my Music Player App. Let me know what you think :)

After much research and testing, I didn't include the discussed 3rd party mods. I decided to keep this ROM as clean as possible, that way flashable mods can easily be added and updated as various developers add them. Instead I've worked hard to improve performance and battery life even further. I hope you enjoy the result!

I'm having trouble with installation. I wiped fully twice and tried installing. Goes from the Google logo to a dark screen (still on, but dark). Tablet sits for 30 minutes with no change. I wiped and installed another rom and it worked perfectly. Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
Anyone else having the same issue?

I don't have a Nexus 7 myself so I can't test and confirm. It's possible something went wrong when I compiled.

Did you download from here or via OTA?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] landonblaine:
I downloaded from here-- link in the original post. I may download the previous version and see if that one works. The rom looks great and I'm looking forward to using it. Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
V4.00 is definitely working.

If someone else can report back if they are having issues with v4.10, I can pull the download down and recompile the ROM.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] landonblaine:
V4.00 seems to be working ok--finishing setup now. Thanks for the rom and your help.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
No worries.

As soon as I've had some more feedback on 4.10 I'll either recompile or suggest the best way for you to give it another shot.

Cheers,

Rolled back to v4.00 in OP. Obviously there is an issue with the compile on 4.10. I'll recompile again ASAP.

Sorry guys.

Unfortunately one of the downsides of not owning all the devices to test with is that occasionally this kind of thing happens. It compiled perfectly for Nexus 10, but when I recompiled for Nexus 7 something must have gone astray. Probably my blobs.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Sentinel196:
