Sorry I missed this... I think you would be fine with a dirty flash. Nothying muc changed. I just didint want to flash old crap to my own brand new tablet!

Haha!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] k5mitch:
Hey Scott glad your back I left also for a bit but purchased another N7 a few weeks back...my Note2 is running your greatness. What is the preferred kernel these days?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
For me the stock kernel is just fine.

However I like Flar2's kernel series myself.

Thank you sir!

i always use SCOTTS ROMS!!!!

On all my devices.

Couldnt be happier to see a new version CleanROM was released just as I am looking to reflash my tablet.

One thing though - I downloaded from my XP laptop and transferred to the tablet, then booted into recovery and did the factory wipe for a clean install as usual, but even though i verified the MD5 and it matched with the MD5 on the site it failed to install if "Zip file signature verification" is turned on which it is by default!

Is this anything to be concerned about? As the MD5 matched i was wondering if it was just because i saw no md5 file in the zip itself?

happy 420 :highfive::silly: and god bless
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] tsimitsangaz:
Thank you for this smooth like butter and bug free ROM excellent work
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] username4this:
Welcome back Scro!

Glad you're back to this side of the fence.

One question though, how customised is the Nova Launcher you added to the Rom?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Turn sig check off in recovery. You dont need it. If yoru downloading it from my website and the MD5 matches then you dont need a sig check.

Its not at all. Nor does it trigger the warning that it is modified when you zipalign it.

Its like a pure download from the play store but put in /system instead of /data

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] AarSyl:
It should be the same as the free version from the Play Store. I see no difference.

I have 2.6, To flash 2.6.5 i need full Wipe or only Wipe dalvik And cache?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] MrMiami81:
I have a ****load of apps on my tablet and really don't feel like setting everything back up.. Can I flash this without wiping anything?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Simba501:
Are you currently on a version of this ROM?

Titanium backup pro, my friend. Well worth the money; many others would agree. The only thing you'd have to do is your system settings again (WiFi, adding your accounts, anything else).

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] AarSyl:
Or...nandroid and try a dirty flash of the rom and gapps.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] MrMiami81:
Yes I'm on 2.6 now. I also have titanium backup pro. Im just trying to avoid wiping and reinstalling everything. Its too time consuming but if its necessary its necessary..
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] oldman_58:
I did a dirty flash, had no issues. Just wipe cache and dalvick you should be set

Dirty flash worked perfectly
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Thats correct.

I only even did 2.6.5 because I got a new tablet again and didint want to flash old stuff :p

Nothing actually changed besides the launcher and the wallpaper on 2.6 to 2.6.5 other than the most up to date apps at that time I created it.

I use twrp v2.6.3.1 and when I flash the rom(2.6.5 and 2.6) after the wipe and its failed. Other custom roms havent problem when flashing. Whats the problem, about recovery??

Yes it does.

I can't doors anything from Google play, it just goes to installing but nothing happens

I tried force closing, restarting and clearing cache. Any other work around for this? Probably not room related though
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] imfun:
does this rom include some rom customisation setting or i'll have to instal like GRavityBox my self?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Try clearing the google servic cache. Not in ecovery but via the app manager. do the same for play store.

It has no customizations like that. Not the intent of the ROM. However pretty much any mod out there designed for the N7-2013 should work just fine. Lots of people using Gravity box and Wanam.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] imfun:
Aha, thanks for quick replay and help, i instal the room with glitch kernel. its very smooth fast, hope it will be batery friendly too :)

Im gona try Wanam :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I dont know much about that kernel but I know the battery is really good on stock kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] imfun:
Well i did under volt the cpu at 1,5ghz and also gpu at 450...for now must say batery life is quite better than on stock before. P.s. gravitybox has much more variety of diffrent settings so its better than wanam for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] tashik19:
Please update wifi drivers. Sometimes wifi disconnects. I am using franco kernel. :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ObiDanKenobi:
I may be wrong but from what I know the drivers are in the kernel. In my case N7 has the best wifi from all my Android devices. I use this Rom together with Elementalx kernel on 5ghz.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] andyman_187:
hi all, can anyone confirm if they can reproduce this?

1.) boot up your nexus with location services set to battery saving (location determined using wifi and mobile networks only)

2.) turn off location services completely

3.) turn it back on

on my nexus, after doing the steps above, it can no longer find my location (all location based apps can't find me including google now). only a reboot fixes it, but after turning location off then on again, it happens.

i used to be able to switch location on and off with no issues before, and this only started happening recently (since last week). i also have a feeling this is what's causing battery drain during deep sleep for me (play services continuously pinging for location but somehow gets stuck?)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Orihalcon:
Just a silly question on this great looking Rom - would it be compatible with a wide variety of kernels? Say BulletProof or ElementX?

Thank you for the hard work in producing this for us!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I believe that is correct!

Yes, any of the kernels such as those by Flar2 and the other devs would run great on here. Lots of people using them!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Funny!

I can reproduce it but with a minor variation...

When I turn it back on it automatically defaults to High Accuracy mode so I drop it back to Battery Saving Mode and I can see that it wont work.

How odd!

I wonder if this is an Android bug or google location bug?

From the sounds of it; if it just happening in the last 2 weeks it was probably an update to the google core services that is causing it.

This would not be the first time I have seen it flip like this.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Orihalcon:
Oh happy days!

Many thanks scrosler!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] andyman_187:
Yes, I forgot to mention that mine defaults to high accuracy as well. Although in this mode, GPS works just fine and I get correct location reporting. However, like you mentioned, when switched back to battery saving it won't work anymore.

Just a minor annoyance really, but I sure hope they fix it in the next google play services update, especially if my suspicions are correct and battery gets drained during deep sleep when location services are toggled on and off and the service gets stuck looking for a location
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
IMHO you are better leaving the service on... And shutting off apps that use it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] davidbar93:
My favorite rom... Thank you for such an amazing work.

Maybe can we get a Deodexed version too? To make ART work.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] barondebxl:
Battery life is official with this ROM, I have ZERO complains.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I think you mean Odex and I dont much care for an ODex ROM with the Qualcom Dalvik stack. I also believe it outperforms Googles "art"

Official! I like that!

Wifi or LTE version?

Hi all, I just need to know if I could flash this ROM to my Nexus 7 2 (2013) WiFi ONLY unit? Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yes, that is called the "Flo" version.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] schlager:
any issues with TWRP?

i am getting "some symlinks failed" using zip and adb sideload...

http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=515
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Sideloading and twrp will sometimes cause that.

I would reboot recovery or power off then back into recvoery and sideload again.

I have had the same issue and racked my brain to find out that twrp needed to be rebooted to properly sideload if you do anything else before the sideload that mounts any of the partitions.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
BUt I would not sideload it again. The ROM will be on the device in the name of "sideload.zip"

Just reboot twrp and flash that zip.

True, you need LTE. I guess the G flex should be good if you don't mind the 720 p display. Great phone though.

No, too much regression.

I heard the LG GPro 2 is going to be 5.9 and ultra slim. But 6 to 6.5 would be best.

Right now I'm on an old version of kangabean. Its basically stock but with some tweaks. I'm running a ROM on my nexus 5 called cataclysm which has some customizations built in so I don't need xposed & gravity box so I can use Art runtime. However I heard you say the optimized dalvik stuff is better than ART. If that's true I would love to try your ROM as I loved it on my Note 2. I really wanna be on ART as I noticed a difference on my Nexus 5. However if these dalvik stuff you're talking about is better I'll switch right away.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yeah, prolly. If they made it a flagship I would get it.

Make a back up of what you have and give a try. Thats the easiest way to know if its right for you.

I think most people will also agree that the Dalvik Optimizations make such a huge difference its not like the device was before CleanROM.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Jonnyredcorn:
And from what I've read it seems I don't need to do anything to enable these as they're built into the ROM? Also...Do the "Let's follow KitKat UI theme/mod from the themes and apps forum work on this ROM? They're mainly for stock Roms but this is basically stock isn't it?

Sent from my Nexus 7 running Kangakat powered by franco.kernel
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yes, correct about Dalvik optimizations. Just flash the ROM Clean and run it.

As far as themes and mods I cannot vouch for any I did not created but anything that is compatible with stock ROM should work here.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] naturecannon:
Ah so is that the key to always having your latest rom? Find the latest and biggest phone verizon has and a guy is golden with a solid rom?

Well I have the G2 on Verizon, perfect size for my line of work, any bigger and I would imagine the risk of breaking screen would increase dramatically as I do construction.

Thank you for this great ROM, it's running very smooth and stable here. One minor thing though, would it be a great hassle for you to include a translated reboot menu? It just bugs my OCD :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Jonnyredcorn:
Thanks Mr. Scrosler, I will be flashing in 3, 2, 1.....

Sent from my Nexus 7 running Kangakat powered by franco.kernel
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Basically, yeah!

It would not be hard... However, I would have to make a special mod for your language because the words (strings) are hard coded in the smali code and there is no translation in the strings.xml per language like a normal application.

I should be able to edit the words in the smali if you can translate them exactly as they should appear, line by line.

Something like this...

Reboot -> XXXXXX

Hot Reboot -> xxxxxxxx

etc, etc, etc...

Let me know how it goes.

Sir. Thank you for this ROM. It has enhanced a quality device even further. I'm not sure if it was intended, but it's got rid of my touch screen issues as well.

Scott, need your help here. I just clean flashed your rom and my tablet does not connect to my desktop PC and my 2 other notebooks. I have not flashed any mods yet. I have MTP checked off in the settings. Any ideas? Thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Rafael4096:
Glad to see you are working on anything Scott!

I have run your roms on multiple platforms and they have always been my favorite....by a long shot!

I will be ruining the intelligence curve of your users with this question, but....

What wipes do I need to perform before flashing? I am currently on the lastest OTA with a few apps removed/changed from the stock 4.4.2.

I have looked through all of your posts here and the only reference I found was doing a factory reset.......but I see nothing in the OP mentioning it.

Maybe I am blind?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
You dont have correct drivers loaded. Thats my first guess. Check device manager.

Your right i am missing the install instructions on this ROM.

Do a factory reset in recovery

Load the ROM clean

Let google restore your apps.

Set up your apps.

Enjoy!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Rafael4096:
Thank you, sir!

Just made a small donation. Call it a thank you for your past work.....I owed you.

We are now a bit closer to even. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Rafael4096:
Wow!

I was very happy with this new Nexus 7 2013 when I got it a few days ago, and ART was a real bonus.

When I read where you stated you had this running better than stock with ART, I believed you but had to see it to really digest it.

I am amazed.

This sooooo fast, and smooth. I am hapily surprised! Thanks, man!

Strange though......I thought there was an installer with choices of apps.......never saw one. No matter....never worked right on one Rom on my Asus Transformer Prime.

Also, I have had terrible experiances with Nova on multiple devices before this one.....and I kinda like the Google-Now launcher even though I don't use Now. :) Dumped Nova right off. (Nova locked up more on my other devices than any launcher I have ever tried.....like every few minutes).

One more item of note....

On my last reboot I went into recovery and wiped Dalvik. Rebooted and a bunch of my home screen shortcuts were missing. No problem with any apps...just lost shortcuts. Wierd.

Great work, Scott!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Nah, you dont owe me anything but I do appreciate the donation!

Was it the Now Launcher that did that? I dont trust that launcher. I used to use it in the ROM.

Nova on this tablet is rock solid IMHO.

The pure stock launcher is in OP if you want that as well.

But glad you like it! Told you it was smooooth :angel:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] barondebxl:

CleanROM comes pre-rooted, so as others have said, install StickMount. There's a free version that's perfectly functional, and as a happy user, I recommend spending a few bucks for the paid version to support the developers.

Sorry I did not reply sooner. The Refridgerator quit and I had to fix it, work got really busy, and a few other minor emergencies at home.

All is pretty much back to normal now.

Glad to return the favor you have done for me......many times.

I prefer the Now launcher to stock......seems to be smoother for me......and it's got a really nice layout, fonts, icons, etc. It just plain works.

I prefer Holo Launcher on my Verizon GS4, but it looks like crap on the N7......so I went back to Now.

I know it is stupid to hold a grudge against an app, but I had enough problems with Nova that I avoid it like the plague. I could not keep it running for more than a few minutes on both my GS4 and my TF201.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Nah, thats fair. If you dont like it; you dont like it. I am the same way.

Next build I will do Aroma for the choice of launchers.

But its hard for me to justify another build. I am quite happy this one :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dark2099:
I have to say, when I first saw you made nice the default launcher, wasn't thrilled, then I used it a bit, personally feels a touch snappier than stock.

Yeah, you know me well... But when I used Nova on this build... I was like...

They got it together, finally :D :good:

Totally agree Sir!

Btw hope you remember for the next build to make maps uninstallable. It eats battery and I never use it on my pad.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Rafael4096:
Cool.

I don't want you to think I am criticizing your choices. I am VERY happy with CleanRom. I have run CleanRom on every device I have owned that it was avalable for.....until you moved on and there was an Android update with features I wanted.....and then it was a let-down knowing I would likley have to tolerate a less polished OS. :)

Your taste is very similar to mine already. I think you make excellent choices.....and I feel fortunate that I get to benefit.

Don't do Aroma on my account. Tweaking the few changes I make is no big deal to me. The one Aroma rom I have run was on my TF201....and that POS (TF201) never worked well from the start, so I did not gain a good opinion of Aroma. I would not care if you skipped Aroma.

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 AM ----------

If you want snappy....I really like three things about Holo Launcher.

1-Menu is customizable....no need to see a screenful of choices you don't use.

2-Snappy as can be....super fast.

3-Very small memory footprint.

4-Ability to turn off dock and get rid of all page/dock indicators that take up screen space.

5-The program does not mind that I do not know how to count.

I love Holo on my S4. I run a single desktop page with no dock......and couild not be happier.

But......for some reason I just cannot get the screen organized well using Holo or HoloHD with this Nexus 7.

Now Launcher is beautiful......if you ask me.
