I was just reading through this thread, specifically about the video playback issue, and was going to suggest flashing a different kernel. The fact that changing MX Player from hardware to software solved the problem is a big red flag that the kernel was the culprit all along.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yeah, I didint want to come out and say that which is why I recommended he clear cache and reflash ROM with STOCK kernel.

But like you, as soon as he said hardware to software I felt it would be a kernel issue or he is running custom video drivers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
According to BBC they have issues will versions of 4.4.3 and 4.4.4.

Maybe google did botch something or they just changed something and the app devs need to update.

But the fact of the matter is that Youtube is fine and that was the first complaint. The second complaint was fixed with a wipe and reload with stock kernel.

The BBC App is confirmed with BBC.

Not much I can do with this one :(

So I downloaded the L boot animation and placed it in system/media and set to rw-r--r-- and it isn't working. Anyone have any thoughts?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yep. Sounds like you didint flash it and instead you placed it in system/media and set to rw-r--r--

Just an FYI, I dont post things unless they can be flashed.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Snap Shot:
flash it on recovery

sir scott can make a request ?

can you tweak the latest nova ? tia ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] epicurean:
Sorry but where can I download the stock kernal?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Retiredfinally:
When you flash the ROM you get the stock kernel. Not sure if it might be downloadable separately.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] coffeehandle:
Once you reflag the ROM to get the stock kernel, you can also dl Flashify and make a backup of the current boot.img.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
Wow, such a simple solution, it never even crossed my mind, lol... Thank you!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
Might be wrong, but I think you can download an Android image from Google and only flash the boot.img from that, hence, stock kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] coffeehandle:
That'll work too.

Sent from my Gold iPhone5s
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
No, even though the kernel is stock the boot.img is not. Ive made enhancements to the boot.img. Actually, a lot of the ROM magic happens starting there.

He needs to reflash the ROM.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dy2592:
Im using this version of Nova right now too. Beta 5 I believe. Its sweeet
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] karmasore:
Is there anything special I need to do before flashing the newest 3.5 version? I'm currently using CleanROM 1.7 with ElementalX 3.4.0 kernel. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dark2099:
Since you're coming from a older base, it is much more strongly recommended that you do a clean flash. Will probably have to update the bootloader too.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Dude, that was the second release of 4.3 (had to look at Change log on my website). If I were you I would do a complete update via the Google Factory images then reflash Recovery and then flash ROM.

Your a bit behind :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] :
Hey there scrosler, I own a nexus 5 and a nexus 7 2013, long time ago I reccomended this rom to a friend of mine who doesn't want to update and wanted something stable and solid! He is indeed very happy and I knew he would be for the reputation this rom had ^^

I'm now in a search of not updating my nexus 7 2013 for a long time until the new Android version comes out, so I want a solid, updated and stable Rom as this one is. I can only see your 2 last versions in the changelog, do you update usually once a month?

Are you planning on updating more times CleanRom before android next version? or do you think this could be the final release for 4.4.4? Not asking for ETA neither I want to feel you offended, but I hope this is the last version for 4.4.4 so my flashy-flashy mind can stop worrying if I'm in the latest update of a rom!

edit: looking at your downloads I can see there is a difference of 2 months or 1 per update, which is nice, I don't have to worry more than once per month to look out if you've updated! XD
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Unless some update comes out I dont have any plans on updating.

If I do it would be a minor update that could be flashed over latest version.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] BTT8:
Just to double check, there is no cleanrom for hammerhead (Nexus 5) correct?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dark2099:
Correct.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] scorpiopantera:
Been running Clean ROM for about 4 days on my N7. Nice work. Very good battery life too!

Is ART working? Because when I try putting art and it reboots and I check it says its still using dalvik? Any one know why?

Thanks

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

How do we update the boot loader? Any links thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dark2099:
Beyond doing a factory restore and then going through the rooting process, I'm not sure if a flashable bootloader is available, I can finder older ones, but not one from 4.4.4, which might be the same as 4.4.2, but I'm not sure, maybe [MENTION=426561]scrosler[/MENTION] can help with that. As for ART not sticking, if you have xposed installed, that prevents the switch as xposed mods do not work in ART.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Someone brought up donating a Hammerhead earlier or getting people to chip in and send me one but it never happened :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I have a flashable bootloader in one of the very first 4.4.x threads. A stock rooted thread.

If you can find that you are good to go... I will look around shortly
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I dont have a flashable version of 4.02....

But here it is; you can always "fastboot flash bootloader"
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Viggen66:
I notice also that after I switch to art after I reboot it turns do dalvik, is if still working as art?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dark2099:
Are you using xposed?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Viggen66:
Yes because I like the battery mode (circular with percentage) and the volume wake up keys, if i uninstall xposed will it be 100% art?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dark2099:
If you uninstall xposed, you will be able to use ART. Having xposed installed and in use prevents ART from bein enabled as the two don't mix.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] sfreemanoh:
Unrelated to this reply, (just using Quote to get your attention :P ) kernel do you use? I haven't been paying attention to kernel's much at all lately, so I have no idea which of them are still recommended.

Also, thx for the 4.4.4 update, I just noticed it. I've been running your 4.4.3 build for a while, and since it's been running awesome, I hadn't even bothered looking for a new build. Sometimes I just get that itch to flash something though, ya know...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I just use the stock kernel myself.

Others can chime in with there experience but the stock kernel is good enough.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] phuduong:
I'm waiting this rom for all my devices
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] LeonKnight12:
I did that, I got my problem solved myself. I went into to wipe internal storage not paying attention. All good!:good:

Doh! (Home Simpson Voice!) :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] george241312:
Thank you :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] KyleKatastrophe:
Thanks mucho!

Does it have the ability to remove system apps? (The stock rooted you posted doesn't seem to :/)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
You can remove any app from any ROM by just deleting it...

But on this ROM you can choose the Apps you want during install.

See op for details.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] KyleKatastrophe:
I believe you 100% :)

But I even went to /system/app/ and deleted the APK's with no luck

But I will just use your cleanrom :)

Thanks again.

Don't mean to sound ungrateful at all.

Edit: do you mean in the zip itself?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] kdkinc:
Nicest looking install I've ever seen.

I may just install this a few time just to watch the process.:p

Thank You
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Eitherway...

But if you want to do it simple just flash this ROM because you can pick and choose during install.

AHAHAHH! That was Awesome!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Gunthermic:
Awesome!

Does Zipthemer work with this ROM ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] BDR456:
It does. I've flashed a few candy shop mods with no issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jdagreek:
I am trying to use Zipthemer it works on many of my devices but I think it's having a problem with Aroma Installer

if you know how Zipthemer works it looks at the ROM flashable then what you want changed and it builds them together ...

when I boot into recovery to run the file that zipthemer has built it fails to install ... it mentions during the install Starting Aroma installer ... and I think this is the problem ...

Zipthemer works on all my other devices that did not use AROMA ???

any ideas ...

could you build me a ROM without Aroma so I could test ?

Ok ... confirmed AROMA is the problem ... would you consider creating a ROM with basically everything and not use AROMA ?

help !!! Developer ???

ROM SIZE?

Hi, excuse me if this is a noob question:

I have a 32GB N7(2013), I understand formatting and such, I won't get the "full" 32. My issue is:

I installed this rom and TWRP and a clean install nets me 17.45GB left of 26.11GB(Total Space). Shouldn't I be closer to 28/29 GB Total?

And I thought this rom, unpacked was about 2 GB. When I do a backup, it's almost 12GB! With no apps. Am I missing something or doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Thats not right!

Anyone with a 32G model chime in here?

I only have the 16 Gig.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ap4lifetn:
I only have a 16gb as well, but I noticed that this ROM has less storage available then the cleanrom for nexus 7 (2012). The 2012 has about 13.5gb but this is about 12.2gb.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] NoobieExtraordinare:
On a completely different note, I installed your rom for my 7, loved it so much that I went looking for it for my 10, only to realize that you had stopped development. My 10 ran mmuzzy rom for the longest and since he has been MIA for a bit, I was hoping for a cleanrom 4.3 for Manta. Thanks for all your work. All you rom devs are awesome and kind to share your work!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Semantics:
Not sure why, but when I flash this ROM, it says successful and when the tablet reboots it goes to the welcome screen and when I select next, I get to the WiFi Setup page, but WiFi is turned off, and its just stuck there saying waiting for WiFi. Flashing back to stock is no issue. Any ideas whats going on?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] NoobieExtraordinare:
Are you unable to manually turn wifi on?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] coolcuboy89:
Did a clean wipe, from scratch, 25.66GB of 26.11GB available. Much better, I'm guessing something was corrupt.

Furthermore, is 26.11GB from 32GB advertised accurate? Like I said, I was expecting 28-29GB Total.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] 53l3c7a:
Sorry, that was me. I've been trying to get my PayPal current again, but I need to update my accounts. My android phone died, so I'm using a prepaid phone on AT&T until my contract is up. Ill be getting an N5 in October, hopefully.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Viggen66:
It still is by default on Dalvik I guess it must be working on art, inspit of this, but who figures this tablet is just fast enough
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
On this tablet with this ROM I think ART and Dalvik run about equal. Have not done any testing to quantify that but the Qualcomm Dalvik files are a massive improvement over the Google files.

ART may get you better battery but even then...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Barthlon:
Even better? :p

Last week I told about my insane battery life. Today I doubled those numbers. Let's hope it's still alive when I get home in 10 hours. If so, it will read: 17 days standby with 1 hour screen time :D

And from now on I'm going to use my precious device again!! :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] The_Zodiac:
I cant speak to how much screen on time youll get, but ive been getting much better standbye time. not using a custom kernal or anything
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Viggen66:
One thing I find amazing about this rom is that the author released a single edition of the rom based on Kitkat 4.4.4 and it has no bugs whatsoever, normally perfection takes some tweaks and some minor patches to the original rom, in this case, first release perfect release! Great work scrosler
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Barthlon:
MUCH better than 17 days? Show me! :p

Ok, so this is not really 'using' the device, but it is still impressive I think:

0.24%/hour including some screen time. Nice!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] davidchuyaya:
what apps do you have installed?

just wanted to do a comparison to see which drained battery most
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Thats pretty damn impressive. I tried to reproduce and could not. I can only get 8 days. But... by looking at your screenies I still use the tablet more than you. But not enough to justify a loss of 9 days. Thats just insane.

One other person asked this question and I am curious as well; what apps do you run?

I have a full load of synchronizing email, weather, etc. I might wipe it clean, take out everything then just let it sit and see what happens, lol

Yeah, this ROM has always had good standby. Only time people report bad stand by are nasty flashes, screwed up google services, etc. Assuming everyone has the new services, maps, etc pushed to there device you shoudl get great battery.

Yeah, I am not normal :angel: HAhahahahaa

The people who use my ROM, just like my self, expect it to work right the first time. And of course I pride myself in the fact that I can make it work just the way I want the first time.

However don't take that as narcissistic, I am far from perfect and had made errors before, you can see them in the change log on my website. I may even make another mistake in my life... BUt I will tell you this. You wont find a Dev on here that can fix mistakes as quickly as I do!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Barthlon:
As I said, I didn't really use the device for some time. I mean, 1 hour screen time in 17 days... Is 3.5 minutes of use a day :D

I just did this because a week ago I found out it was at 50% with over 8 days of standby and I wanted to see if I really could double that :D

And now scrosler has a number (<0,24%/hour) to brag about ;)

I have quite some apps (outlook, gmail, facebook, maps, chronus widget, xposed, gravitybox, xda, imdb umong others) and they are all set to sync. But the big saver here is the fact that I set the option to not use wi-fi while asleep (and it has been asleep for over 99% of the time :D ).

But as a base this is still CleanRom: stock kernel and no additional 'tweaks' or anything!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dragontology:
Okay so, just to be clear—I was thinking I could just flash the ROM in Recovery, but since I'm running 4.4.2 rooted right now... Can I just flash this? Clean flash and all? Or, I saw the bootloader posted above... Do I need to update that as well to flash this ROM, or is that optional?

And that is done with adb/fastboot? Is there a guide to doing that?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
YEah, thats really good!

If you are on stock rooted 4.4.2 then you prolly already have the 4.02 version bootloader. Its easy to find out. Just reboot to bootload and check the version. If its 4.02. then you dont need to update. If its not and it shows 3.x then you shoudl update. I dont have a flashable version of this bootloader so you would have to fastboot it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] pieces of cake:
After the most recent Hangouts update the app is no longer useable. Just hangs on a black screen. I've had this problem before on my Galaxy S5, but don't recall how I resolved the issue. Anyone else experiencing the same and know how to fix this?

Perhaps just a link to the second-most recent Hangouts apk would be helpful. Thank you in advance.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dragontology:
Sweet. I am. I actually cannot get fastboot to work. I have the drivers and Device Manager keeps seeing my N7 as a Samsung phone. I do not have a Samsung phone. Used to have one, but uninstalled everything for it. So I cannot use fastboot or adb, they won't see the device. But I am running 4.02 as I'm presently booted to fastboot mode.

Can't wait to get CleanROM running. It's what I'm running on my HTC One M8. Good job there too. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] djibril13:
OK google suddenly stop working what have to do ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I use hangouts and its fine. I checked my version and as far as I can tell its the latest. I would try clearing app data.

What specific function stopped working?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] djibril13:
Hotword detection doesn't work anymore. Mic is working fine but I cannot activate the search using the OK google command.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] pieces of cake:
That was the first thing I tried and it didn't help whatsoever. Anyone else?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SickBeast:
Try again using minimal ADB and fastboot.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I cannot get it to fail. I am using Nova Launcher, and I turned on OK Google in the google settings Icon and it works every time.

Make sure that you have it turned on of course as it seems they changed up some of the settings.

Well, you can always go to App manager and simply uninstall the latest version.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] pieces of cake:
I can uninstall the app, yes. But that eliminates the app, not the problem. There's no option to uninstall updates.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Correct, it will eliminate both then you can re-install it fresh from the play store.

Upon checking the version in the ROM is the same version as the play store.

2.1.311

So no updates have occurred since I released the ROM.

I still cannot reproduce the issue so I would recommend the uninstall then re-install.

If you have limited access here is the APK that came with the ROM, version 2.1.311: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31360541/XDA/Hangouts.apk
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Well well well... Guess what I did...

I got the Advanced Power Menu working on ART!!!

Thanks to mrjaydee82 and Benny3 for assistance!

You can download it on my website here: [MOD] - Advanced Reboot Menu for CleanROM 3.5 / Android 4.4.4 / ART Compatible!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Im sure most of you can see with these little mods, the near 30 day update cycle approaching, I plan on updating soon.. If not tomorrow then then weekend!

The update is only planned for apps and Power Menu. Performance wise I dont think I can squeeze any more out unless I do my own kernel and thats not really in the cards for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Viggen66:
Scrosler just a request is it possible to had a circular battery mod or percentage of the battery level?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Maybe...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Well, I as excited and decided to release the ROM early :angel: :highfive:

Same CleanROM goodness with a touch of updates. ROM now comes with Extended Reboot Menu as default and is full ART compatible!

Enjoy!
