Dirty flash. And Wipe Dalvik and Cache. Yeah, I said it... CleanROM aint so clean ;) LOL

However, myself... I clean flash each and every ROM.

The choice is yours, just remember Nandroid is your buddy! :highfive:

Nope, if you have 6.0 running well then 6.1 is a dirty flash.. See above :good:

Ahhhhhhh, I didint recall you stating the kern diff. Try a totally stock CleanROM and let me know if it fixes it (please).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] shezaad879:
I am also using ElementalX with CleanRom 6.1 and I can connect fine. Haven't tried it with Stock kernel...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] idCyber:
Wifi works fine here on stock 6.1
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] pieces of cake:
Had to revert to CleanROM 6.0 because Bluetooth kept skipping and stopping/starting playback every few seconds in my car on 6.1. Problem seems to be fixed by reverting.

Clean install, for the record.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Strange. I guess we will be seeing another update to the source files soon.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] uly609:
HOLY CRAP!! I can't believe you are developing for the N7!! I know I'm late to the party but the last ROM of yours that I used was for the LG G2! You should for sure get a G4 and make your awesome clean ROM goodness for that phone once we get root and bootloader sorted out! Downloading this ROM ASAP:good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Awesome dude! I remember your Avatar! lol

Hope you enjoy this ROM like you did G2!

BTW: This is the FIRST Nexus 7 2013 ROM and the longest running :good: :highfive: :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] uly609:
Right off the bat I can already feel the smoothness of this ROM. as always amazing work!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] healer999:
I prepare to change my factory rom to Clean.

Is there any battery drain issue in this? My factory rom(5.1.1) is suck my battery one day...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
You should get better battery than stock.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] FlickFlack:
Do not know how battery is in stock 5.1.1, but with CleanROM 6.1 it is awesome.:good::o
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] fredzer:
I am sorry to ask this: but can anyone point me to a tutorial to install Cleanrom on the Nexus 7 (2013)? Most tutorials I find talk about an external SD card, but the Nexus doesn't have such a slot. I currently have the stock rom upgraded to 5.1.1 without any personal files (so everything may be deleted). Some help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Whileitlasted:
External SD card or not, most of the time we just need to wipe cache, dalvik cache, data. This won't affect the nexus internal sd.

Or you can wipe everything (system, factory reset, format data) if you go for the ADB sideload the rom but it is not necessary.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] madbat99:
Depends on usage. This rom gets better than stock, there is no "battery draining issue". But this tablet doesn't have much of a battery, so screen on time is going to drain it in a few hours no matter what rom you use.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] healer999:
With the last official update my Nexus consumed 70% from morning to evening with no usage at all!!:eek::eek:

When I set my alert to wake up at night, I don't dare to leave it without power...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] madbat99:
That's not typical. On official 5.1.1 I lose about 7% over night.

You likely have something (an app or a setting) hogging it.

Cleanrom does waaaay better on battery, but you still have to help it. Check your stuff out, go through and clean it up. There are many apps to assist you with this.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Barthlon:
scrosler, are you getting a new mobile any time soon. If so, what will it be and what are the odds that you'll release a CR for it?

I might choose a new phone based on that :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] slick_shoes:
Hoping he gets a Verizon G4 lol
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Rocking an S6 for a while and pretty happy with it. Got the Gear S watch too.

If I get a new phone I am going back to Nexus Phone because I hate locked bootloaders.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
My s6 has it's bootloader unlocked. ;) switch providers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yeah, T-Mobile has no towers in Fargo. I was told they use AT&T. This is why I always go back and forth between AT&T and Verizon, AT&T sometimes gets different phones or gets phones faster.

I cant get AT&T service at my house effectively making even an unlocked phone useless (depending on how good the radio is and where I am physically located).

With VZW I can hit 20 Megs down and 10 megs up while in my basement office. Switching providers is the difference between getting calls and texts and not.

And we wont even get into Sprint....
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] weinbers:
Get a new N6, so you can update that version of CleanROM, please ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] lostsoul565:

[MENTION=5867243]Megaflop666[/MENTION] -- Hi

If you ever need anything, just hit me up in PM, I'm local. Judging by your Devices List, probably won't need me *geesh:eek:, you've been around the block on devices*, but if you do, I'm always around. [/OT]
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Trust me, if I had the money I would!

You will need to update the bootloader in the OP then flash ROM.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] andy_rose:
New factory image out.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] madbat99:
Probably a patch for the stagefright exploit.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Prolly I will take a look.

If anyone can google around and see what the change is that would help me determine the time frame I would release an updated CleanROM.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] roundel77:
Wasn't here awhile. Currently on Clean Rom 3.5. How do I update to current, will gravity box work and do I need new bootloader?

Flame shield is on?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I would suggest, cleaning up the device a bit buy flashing the factory image. CR 3.5 was released over a year ago. That is why I recomend this.

It will also put you on the newest bootloader.

Otherwise, I would flash the bootloader in the OP and then factory reset device in TWRP (NOT A FULL WIPE) then flash ROM.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] just lou:
The new build is a stagefright fix.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] oxxshadow:
Hey scrosler, how do you like your S6? Been debating on whether I should pick one up now or wait for the next Nexus phone. Many people complain about the S6 performance and bad RAM management. Is that something you experience, or even possibly fixed in Cleanrom for the S6?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] roundel77:
Thanks scrosler I am flashing new bootloader found in your OP than factory reset ONLY and than flash your Rom. Doing factory image is like a rocket science to me right now so I will just try with out it. Just so you know 3.5 was rock solid and still is .
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Barthlon:
Really? I only hear good things about the s6.

I will probably wait for nexus 5 (2015, LG build) or the xperia z5 compact.... Maybe scrosler will change his mind in the future :);)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
Like the others said, the update was the Stagefright fix (ahh, panic everyone over a bug that has been around since Froyo and no one knew about before all the major publications put it out in the public, now let's fix it real quick :p) and other minor security fixes. Nothing of real substance.

With that being said, I do have a question. Would you be up for just a small update.zip patch rather than a full on Aroma zip (or both)? Since this is nothing of significance (OS-wise), it might be easier to do a small one for everyone who is on current build and then a full Aroma for fresh flashees.

[OT] Hey [MENTION=3291129]just lou[/MENTION]. Not sure if you remember me from the TF101 section or not, but it's always nice to see someone from back in the day. I still have that going as a pure media device and it runs like a champ. KatKiss KK#36 version.[/OT]

I do have another question: What are your thoughts on adding in the Layers commits to this? I know that CR is supposed to be as close to stock as possible, but RRO is already in AOSP and with just a few other commits we could get the full Layers theming going on. I modify everything anyways, so I can just do it (systemui, settings, documentsui) myself, but it would be pretty simple with layers implemented. If people don't want to use it, they don't have too and it's pretty simple to revert if something goes wrong or looks wonky. Just an idea and if you don't want to reply about it in here, you can always send me a PM.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] just lou:
Hey Woody,

I still have my TF101, and the TF300. Amazingly they're both still quite usable thanks to timduro. :) I don't use them that often, but once in awhile I fire up the TF101. I gave the TF300 to my wife.

Hi I've been getting random reboots with this rom 6.1
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Fixed poor "quoating"

It must be an app or something causing a problem. There is a program called Catlog that will keep a running logcat on your tablet and write it to a file. Maybe if you run that we can figure it out.

Who ever complains about an S6 is crazy. I have zero issues with CleanROM. And yes, it does improve over stock even more so than CleanROM for the Nexus. There is just more to clean up on a Touchwiz device.

Slow? NO!

RAM Management? Not me...

I love my S6!

IM hoping someone will post a copy of the actual OTA file so I can what it looks like. From there that will dictate what I will need to do. There are both of the possibilities you mention. However, my concern is if its just a binary (.so) fix or if its something in the framework. If its something in the framework that could require a complete ROM so we have a matching framework (or I could cheat and move the manifest and certs but I dont like to go that route).

So I really wont know until I can grab the OTA and look at it. Im actually hoping to take the patch and just make it "CleanROM" compatible. That would be optimal!

As far as this, I am not really looking to take on any new projects now. However if you wanted to share what you have already done in the thread I would be more than happy to put it in the OP.

I dont know much about Gravibox and LP.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] roundel77:
Sounds good mate , thank you for all your work. Too bad you don't have same ROM for Nexus 5 I would flash it in an instant.

I had the Same ROM on Nexus 6 until Samsung carried me away again with the Galaxy S6!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] roundel77:
I am thinking between S6 and new nexus 5(2015). Think S6 will still be better. By the way how are you satisfied with S6?

P.s. installed Gravity Box and Xposed on this ROM and its rock solid -AWESOME + great battery life.

Hi Scrosler,

I have an atypical but hopefully not entirely useless (community-wise) request.

I have ran CleanROM 3.x on my original 2013 Nexus 7 for years now and absolutely love it - Thank you so much for such great work! Unfortunately I cracked the digitizer and ended up gutting my N7 for parts.

I just recently purchased a new N7 on Newegg. I've run Lollipop on a few devices and even in the 5.1.x era it's still not really my cup of tea.

I would love to flash CleanROM 3.8 but have learned that on N7 devices that have shipped with 5.0.x pre-installed (~12/14 forward) it is not immediately possible to flash 4.x and earlier ROMs, the problem seems to be that google has modified their bootloader or even firmware that prevents pre-5.0.1 ROMs from booting, and doing so causes bootloop at the Google screen along with breaking the recovery.

There was a fix posted here:

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-7-2013/nexus-7-2013-qa/mount-recovery-t3064562/

There is a TWRP fix that un-breaks the recovery, but more relevant - a fixed boot.img [mirrored HERE] was also posted that can be flashed after flashing KK 4.4.4 which fixes the boot loop. It has been noted that this boot.img is only a fix for stock 4.4.4 and while it may possibly work for other AOSP based ROMs, one may need to request the ROM dev to patch their ROM with the code that is inside this boot.img to work with their ROM. I tried flashing it after flashing CleanROM 3.8 with no luck.

In summary, I and anyone else who wishes to run CleanROM 3.8 on a Nexus 7 that shipped with 5.0.x or later cannot do so without your help, and I am kindly requesting that you could maybe look into this and if it's easy enough release a patched boot.img for CleanROM 3.8, I would gladly donate for your help on this, thanks!

Also, FYI, the original thread that the patched boot.img originates from is here - http://anago.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/android/1424008707/ (danger, not english)

It should flash on Deb but you wont have LTE.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] rbross3030:
Just to update, I found this digging around in that Japanese thread:

https://github.com/Tasssadar/android_kernel_google_msm/commit/0f7854f7c9fa23651a904f77675518038e85ce67

card->ext_csd.rev = ext_csd[EXT_CSD_REV];
-	if (card->ext_csd.rev > 6) {
+	if (card->ext_csd.rev > 7) {
pr_err("%s: unrecognised EXT_CSD revision %d\n",
mmc_hostname(card->host), card->ext_csd.rev);
err = -EINVAL;

This looks like a revision that was made to TWRP Recovery in order to get sh-- mounting properly in recovery... could anyone shed some light on what might be going on here? Looks like an eMMC hardware revision in later Nexus 7 models? Not sure...

EDIT: Appears so...

Also not the worst idea, I might try that, thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] rbross3030:
Also found this poorly translated info:

(translation: it's tough to revert to 4.x if your N7 Shipped with 5.0 pre-installed)

Is this maybe not as simple as changing a 7 back to a 6 in the kernel or am I over-interpreting?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
What keyboard are you using and does all of your internal storage show up properly?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] slick_shoes:

Wow. This rom is blazing! I'm so happy I tried it!! Too bad I just ordered a galaxy tab s 8.4 cause now I think I could rock the n7 for awhile longer.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Tab s did not impress me. I took it back and went back to N7.

I did like the extra touchwiz features but and the Not stock UI. But to me it lagged because the screen res was too high.

I think in not so distance devices you will see MFG's drop back to 1080p. Its better for performance and batter.

And match this ROM with a kernel like elemental X and it really flies.

Did anyone get you the OTA to cook your update from? Not that I know to! Just wonder when we will have a 6.2 :)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] whmgreen:
+1 on liking touchwiz features and not their UI! I bet if i root it and flash a custom rom it will fly.

I'm just sick of the touchscreen issues on the n7. Tried ALL of the fixes and it always comes back!!!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Thank you. I will check it out soon!

Funny, I have had 4 brand new Nexus 7 2013's over the span of 2 years and none of them ever had any issues with the touchscreen. I dont know if I got good luck on this device which is pretty rare for me, normally bad luck on any device.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] lolcopter:
Touchscreen issues don't really rear their head unless the device is laying completely flat (like on a table), and then it will just lose touch point/precision and you have to tilt it a bit
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] quickdraw86:
That's a result of a hardware issue on your individual device, not a bug in the ROM. There are several threads in the nexus 7 2013 general subforum which address touchscreen/multitouch issues, hardware and software mods/fixes.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Depends on cash flow... If I had the cash I would go with refurb. I had to fix this screen once. Dont want to do it again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] sonicmixmaster:
Ok then. I'm not too comfortable getting my hands into small things. Maybe I will not try this now. I still have a Asus Memo Pad as a backup but that is quite a lot of steps down from the Nexus. Thanks for a quick reply.

I will have to wait a bit as I have a Macbook Pro and Galaxy S6 Unlocked phone to pay off now. When I do get the refurbished I may go for the 32 gig model. The 16 gigs was enough for me but If I also wanted to record some videos then I had to limit myself on how much I record.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] quickdraw86:
You do realize that you could potentially have a terabyte of storage if you have an otg cable, an external drive (my tb drive was around $100.00) and the nexus media importer app?
