"Up to date"? Am I missing something? I see nothing new posted on G+ since January.:confused: If mirrors are kosher, and anyone has one, hit me up. Muchas gracias.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Mightycaptain:
I can't download from goo.im. In fact I can't seem to download any room from goo. Get a message about a distribution server being down. Last 12hrs. Is this only me?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] shinesthru:
Goo is up!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] prmax:
Same here, any fix for this? Shouldn't have to install over and over until it works...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] aromig:
Try a dirty flash over 2.5
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Protibus:
Same here, beautiful boot splash screen, but that's as far as it got. I hear dirty flashing over 2.5 works but I'd rather do a clean install.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] PVL_93_RU:
Why are there 2 LiquidSmooth grouper threads in Android Development and Original Development sections?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gorillajuice:
Yep dirty flash over 2.5 works. Coming from PA I had to flash 2.5 let it boot then go back to recovery and flash 2.7.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] shinesthru:
(Double posted from the other thread. Still not sure why there are 2 threads for this ROM)

I was also getting stuck at the boot animation with a clean install on latest TWRP, md5 verified. However, that was when I downloaded the zip to my tablet. When I downloaded to my laptop and transferred it to my tablet then flashed, it booted right up. I'm running 2.7 now with no problems except fc when going in to edit quick settings tiles.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] aromig:
Same problem with the quick settings fc. One workaround is to expand the quicksettings bar, then long press the settings tile. This will allow you to add, remove and rearrange the tiles. Still cannot alter a few options, such as individual toggle settings, but it's still better than stock.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ElYukiPR:
I'm stuck at the boot animation for over 15 minutes, with a clean install on latest TWRP, md5 verified too. Also read to perform a Dirty Flash over 2.5 but goo.im only have the most recent ROM. I think I'm gonna try other ROMs until next release. :(
[Nexus 7 Original Development] shinesthru:
Did you try downloading the zip to your pc/laptop, then transferring it to your n7 before flashing?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ameinild:
It's really nice to know that dirty flashing over 2.5 works, but can someone please post a download link to 2.5 for Grouper, it seems almost impossible to find. Thanks!

Yeap! No success.

---------- Post added at 11:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 AM ----------

2.8 available!!! Nice!!! Downloading now. :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ElYukiPR:
UPDATE: I'm getting stuck at the boot animation again, with this new 2.8 release (wait patiently over 15 minutes). I did a clean install on latest TWRP, md5 verified, downloaded the ROM to my PC and transferred it to my tablet, then flashed. Aggghhh (frustrated). :confused: Re-installing my Nandroid Backup now.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] LuigiBull23:
What about gapps??
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ElYukiPR:
This is what I did:

(1) Reboot recovery TWRP

(2) Nandroid Backup

(3) Wipe (Factory Reset, Cache and Dalvik)

(3) Install ROM

(4) Install GAPPS

(5) Clear Cache and Dalvik

(6) Reboot

Stuck in Bootanimation for 15 minutes. Press VOLUP+ VOLDWN + PWR to access menu and launch recovery again. Restore previous Nandroid backup (stock rooted) without any issue.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] LuigiBull23:
Try manually wiping all partitions, including system then format your internal storage. If that doesn't work then my guess is whatever gapps package your using.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ElYukiPR:
Nexus 7 doesn't have an external SD to put the ROM ZIP files (or Nandroid Backup) on it, and I don't have any OTG cable (supported by TWRP), so, format my internal storage is not an option. GAPPS package are ok (downloaded from GOO.IM link in this thread), and MD5 checked - also GAPPS works fine on my Galaxy S3 & Liquidsmooth ROM flashed with TWRP.

I'm wondering if I'm alone in this issue or someone is having same problem...??? :confused: Could someone post any successful clean install (not dirty)???
[Nexus 7 Original Development] LuigiBull23:
Yes I'm aware lol. You could simply download the ROM and gapps to yoandur pc then transfer those to your phone after you've formatted the internal storage. And no, you're not alone. Lots of uses seem to be having similar issues, including myself but I've since resolved it for myself so I have indeed successfully booted up the ROM :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ElYukiPR:
Update: Just installed a different ROM to test my nexus 7 and works fine (no stuck on bootscreen). Hope a fix came soon! I love Liquidsmooth.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ameinild:
That's odd - I got the exact same problem with 2.7, tried everything, but I couldn't get past boot screen. Now with 2.8 it booted right into the system with gapps and all, and I restored all my data with no problems. Only minor hickup was a very long boot time after I updated Xposed, plus the phablet style navbar (bottom in landscape mode) doesn't work properly. Else this is smooth sailing... :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] milkk:
I'm having the same issue with 2.8 using the gapps in the first page. I have also tried banks gapps and same thing. I did a full wipe before install. Going back to PAC backup for now.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dareino:
Ok, getting some info from the devs on google+, I did a typical new install via twrp

1. factory reset,

2. Installed Rom 2.8

3. Gapps (grabbed from PA home page)

4. added franco kernel a65

After installing all (do not reboot) I then restored boot.img from my last backup and it LS 2.8 booted up!

[Nexus 7 Original Development] putomacao:
To make things simple, use the old gapps from goo (0301), and it will boot up.

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Protibus:
I used the old Gapps 03012013 but still got stuck at the boot screen. Even let it sit for about 30 minutes.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
+1, old gaaps makes no diff for me as well......bootloop.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] vx2ko:
people stuck at boot

If you are stuck on the splash screen, install everything as normal. Let it sit at the splash screen for about 5 min. reboot into recovery, then wipe data/cache. then install gapps again. it should boot this time. I can confirm this works. This is the only way I was able to install it on my Nexus.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] LuigiBull23:
+1 on that. This is a guaranteed fix.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] AngelosDracul:
Just tried that. Didn't work.

Going to try a second time.

EDIT: Second time worked. :) Yay!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] LuigiBull23:
If you tried this method using inverted gapps try the official ones in the OP.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] shinesthru:
Edit: wrong thread
[Nexus 7 Original Development] AngelosDracul:
I used the standard apps in the OP. For some reason it didn't work, I might have only waited 4.5 minutes ;)

Either way, Tablet is back up and running. Thanks for the heads up on the quick fix!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jimmydene84:
Would love to get this ROM running but I have tried 3 diff times and no go...and yes I have read the last few pages and tried them all and still no go :eek:

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 7 Original Development] LuigiBull23:
Try this

1) Full wipe (System, Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache)

2) Flash ROM

3) Flash OP gapps

4) Reboot

5) Let phone sit for a minute

6) Shutdown (Hold power key about 10sec)

7) Boot into recovery

8) Factory Reset

9) Reboot
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Knowpig:
For what it's worth....................

This installed easily and booted quickly. I could not get 2.7 to work, but 2.8 booted right up and has been flawless.

Here's what I do............using TWRP.

1) Factory Reset

2) Adv Wipe-Cache, System, Dalvik

3) Repeat 1 and 2

4) Install ROM and gapps

5) Reboot

I let all my apps reinstall from the playstore and then I reboot.

Hats off to team liquid.

Thanks for a great release!

Thanks, worked perfectly. The ROM is very smooth and fast. Just flashed tonight using twrp 2.7. I've received a notification of an update but am on the newest build, not a problem just swiped it away.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] devilbomb:
Bluetooth Signal Drops

Anyone else having any bluetooth issues with 3.0?

It seems like the bluetooth signal is really weak and has almost no range. Even from a foot away the signal cuts in and out.

Just flashed 3.0 yesterday, coming from 2.9, and this is the only issue I seem to have with it.

Also reset all the BT pairings on the tablet and on the speaker.

I noticed a bluetooth fix file earlier in this thread, but it looks like it was a fix for 4.2.2. So I'm assuming this is for something else then?

I'm also just running the stock kernel included in the rom.

Should I try another kernel? Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Grizzly6117:
Did you do a full wipe when going onto 3.0, if not then I recommend doing so first then check back, however if you did then go to recovery and fix permissions and see if that helps you
[Nexus 7 Original Development] devilbomb:
Yep, full wipe & clean install with TWRP 2.7.

I ended up restoring my backup of 2.9 for now. The BT works great and even can maintain a reasonable signal with the site line broken.

On 3.0, I literally couldn't move the tablet more than a foot from the speaker without the signal cutting in and out. And it wasn't just choppy, it was disconnecting/reconnecting as I was moving it.

I'll try 3.0 again when I find some time to mess with it and report back. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] feelpt:
great news!!! using this on samsung i9505 and after a long break i finally got back to nexus 7 to see this rom here... downloading!!

you guys using any custom kernel?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] PrizmaticSmoke:
Great ROM so far! This should be getting more attention.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Fransis88:
there will be version compatible with tilapia?? I imagine that if I install the grouper, worked but not 3G?

I just install it first in n5 and I love this rom, rom both as the kernel are a blast.

the only thing that will be wanting a connection manager to switch to 2G when you turn off the screen or saving energy as you just stick your purity.

CM for some time also has a very simple swich goes from 3G to 2G when you lock the screen.

seems silly but it saves a lot of energy!

for the rest the rom is almost perfect! and performance 10!

good work, but tilapia version!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dcseek:
Hi system.ui is on latest version always stopping to work, I had to hard reset many times. I tried to flash again after a full wipe but it's a no go. Anyone having the same problem?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WhoNeedszzz:
Has anyone tried or thought of trying to get F2FS working with this ROM?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WhoNeedszzz:
So I installed the latest build for my GS4 (jfltevzw) with included kernel and my USB OTG drive formatted exFAT works fine. When trying to mount on my grouper it won't mount. I'm assuming this is a kernel issue? Is there a kernel that works well with latest build and also has exFAT support?

No GPS Hardware

Let me state i love this ROM. The only problem i am having is with the GPS. No matter what setting i choose for location i get an error in google maps that says "No GPS Hardware Turn-by-turn navigation is only available on devices with GPS hardware." I have tried other ROMs like PA and and navigation works fine. any solution?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sukesh1090:
[MENTION=4222965]deadman96385[/MENTION],

thanks for the nice rom. if you don't mind i have few suggestions,

1.It would be better if you add all the customizations under a single menu.this will make the main menu look more tidy and clean.

2.I think you can vomit some of the unnecessary customizations here and there.this will reduce the clutter in customizations settings and i think this will also improve performance and it will be easier for you to update also.

even i have seen some force closes in some places.

these are just my opinions.final decisions rest in your hands.none the less thank you for the nice rom. :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WhoNeedszzz:
Have you tried clearing the AGPS data and updating AGPS? You can do it with an app like GPS Test. I don't have any gps issues.

Also your location setting needs to be "High Accuracy" to use both GPS and AGPS.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jamonthis:
I just tried and tried a clean install again and i get the same error. GPS test shows GPS is off even though i have it on and set to high accuracy.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WhoNeedszzz:
Is your location set to "High accuracy"? Perhaps your GPS is turned off.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jamonthis:
Yes it is i stated that in my last reply. I have now reset back to stock which GPS worked fine. Flashed with OMNI GPS worked fine. Flashed with PA GPS worked fine. Flashesd with Liquid GPS failed. I am using the Nightly LS-KK-v3.0-2014-03-26-grouper.zip. I am now running with Multirom and run Liquid till i need navigation then I boot to Stock. I hope to find a fix for this soon.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DaveVQ:
Everything is perfect for me.

Only wish was to have the lock screen rotate to landscape mode.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] WhoNeedszzz:
I don't have any issues with GPS on that build so I have no idea what's causing your issue. Have you updated AGPS?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] kenship:
Confirm GPS issue

I followed the conversations on GPS issue and I confirmed it's happening to me.

In other words: GPS won't turn on at all despite which mode (High Accuracy or Device only) I select.

I checked using GPS Test and I confirm GPS is off.

Any insight or help is greatly appreciated.

just dirty flash latest build over 7/2 w/o updating kernel..."theme provider has stoppped" error message would not let me past the boot screen.

Did a clean flash w/stock kernel. Added theme (piazza)..working fine...

Also I am holding off on enabling ART,probably wont even activate it on LS

[Nexus 7 Original Development] CPA Poke:
Dirty flashing is never supported by LS...especially considering the fact that we pushed the new theme engine subsequent to the last build you flashed.

See my signature for further info ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dareino:
I was going to add how you dont approve of dirty flashing....I will clean flash LS from this point on...thanks CPA!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CPA Poke:
Haha well good I'm glad you thought of it then :)

And don't get me wrong, I don't expect everyone to clean flash every single time...all I ask is to hold off on posting bug reports on here until/unless you do a clean flash first :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dareino:
Just out of curiosity, I have noticed in some ROMs under advanced WIFI settings that the region code points to Europe. Is this an advantage to U.S. users or just an oversight?

Lovin' the device tree setup you got going there [MENTION=4913579]CPA Poke[/MENTION] (auto ext4/f2fs). Keep up the good work! **thumbs up**
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CPA Poke:
Thanks - I've found it pretty hard to find any updated device trees for the ROMs around here, so I figured I'd do my best to stop the trend.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Snuzzo:
Really should update my tree over on IllusionRoms side. . . .

The guys are using ext4 only.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CPA Poke:
Haha, well if you do just make sure you add this to /build:

https://github.com/LiquidSmooth/android_build/commit/13249f806654e7e034ae9bd5761adcec10f92078

Probably want to make a separate branch for it too, since it would probably break non-EMMC devices.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Snuzzo:
LOL. Thanks for that. Going to play around with that during my "away from the wife" time.

EDIT:

I wonder if your scripting could be adjusted as follows to not break non-EMMC

For example

if p.fs_type == 'f2fs':
self.script.append('run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");')
else:
self.script.append('mount("%s", "%s", "%s", "%s");' %
(p.fs_type, common.PARTITION_TYPES[p.fs_type],
p.device, p.mount_point))
self.mounts.add(p.mount_point)

That instead so at time of build if there is a detected fstab and fs does not equal f2fs it would then build using the older method. Hmmmm....
[Nexus 7 Original Development] codygs83:
Ive noticed this only after I was having WiFi problems. Mine was showing connected but kept timing out and running really allow. Switched to USA and all is good. Can't say why the default is Europe though.

Browser doesn't work. "Unfortunately browser has stopped"
[Nexus 7 Original Development] PrizmaticSmoke:
Works great for me. On all-F2FS, dalvik runtime, m-kernel a69.

Did you do a clean flash? Using ART or dalvik? Using any mods like xposed?

Could also try clearing app data and see if that helps.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] waqar.qu:
Clearing browsing data helped. I don't know why it wasn't working but it works now.

That's good because kernel changes don't cause app problems
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poo706:
Hey CPA, I also built for grouper yesterday before I realized that the official 3.1 was coming out for all devices. First, I assume that the grouper branch of android_build was renamed to f2fs? Second, unmounting of system needs to go back in the updater-script. Both my build and yours failed to install until I added that back in.

[poo]
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dareino:

I had to use the browser to see your sig, they don't show in Tapatalk. I'm all f2fs, no multirom, and had install issues until I edited the updater-script.

[poo]
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CPA Poke:
Ah, thanks for that - hadn't even had a chance to flash the new build so I had no way of knowing. I'll revert the commit.

And yes, the branch of /build that you need now is "f2fs".
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poo706:
Thanks, I appreciate it. By the way, I'm pretty sure I've successfully adapted your universal ext4/f2fs grouper commits for the Galaxy Nexus. I'm making a test build right now. So if it goes well, thanks for that as well!

[poo]
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poo706:
[MENTION=4913579]CPA Poke[/MENTION], I have a question for you regarding your ROM unification. I've done extensive testing and have verified that everything is working like it should after porting it over to my galaxy nexus. My issue is that the stock LS gnex kernel won't boot on f2fs after simply swapping out the fstab. Is there something else required in the kernel source to make switching just a matter of changing out the one file?

[poo]
