I am also on elementalx kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
No, I think someone brought this up before but I forgot the conversation.

Maybe someone can chime in?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] sleepingman:
It might be the OTG option on the kernel, the +charge option must be disabled.

Try reinstall the kernel without that option selected.

Hope it helped ?

You guys want a monthly update of the ROM?

It would just be an app update. No changes.

Not sure its worth it right now because Google is pumping out new Gapps almost daily it seems like.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Snap Shot:
yes for me , google always updating their apps now

and some nice wallpaper pls :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] andy_rose:
And since the Google photo app is standalone now, we don't need that awful Google plus installed as well. Also nova launcher is updated with material look and so is adaway☺☺
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
True....

I'll wait for more opinions Saturday is almost here!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jstn76rs:
I wouldn't mind an update...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] paultbear:
YES

I would leave it up to your judgement and experience - app updates are semi-auto but I really like CleanRom and the philosophy behind it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
I wouldn't mind an app update, although I don't see it really being needed for anything other than what is not available in the Play Store (i.e. AdAway). Most of what I use I update manually from either the PS or from XDA. Probably don't need a whole ROM update, but rather a smaller zip that just installs the new things. If there are no improvements to the ROM base as a whole, then a smaller update will work better imo.

I abhor Aroma and it pains me to use it every time I update CR. For something like this size it should work but really just a simple update.zip can work just as well and people can just extract it, remove what they don't want, rezip and flash. Essentially what Aroma does, but on something this small in size, it could be done both ways.

Edit: How are you feeling? Better I hope.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] andy_rose:
In the case of nova launcher, it would help with a full updated ROM. I always choose nova as launcher option in aroma, but with the huge nova update in code, it has happened a few times a borked update of nova right after the ROM install. So I welcome a full ROM update with open arms ☺

Hi. My nexus 7 is running on 4.4.2 and i want to upgrade it to 5.1... I tried many time and my nexus still stuck on boot screen (google icon).

I upgraded Flo Bootloader 4.05 aldready but no chance. Help me please, it's been a long time i explore android since 4.4.2. Can you teach me steps to upgrade 5.1 version without boot stuck?

I love this rom, battery is long time to use... ^^

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] lollyjay:
No need here. I'm sure most of us stay updated with apps we use. I always uninstall or freeze ones that are unnecessary for my needs. Wouldn't want to have to go through with update only for apps.

Thanks again for all your work. Love CleanROM! Glad you're recovering quickly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] madbat99:
I think the update will be more for ppl doing clean flashes. So there is less to update upon first boot. Also google likes to change things around, like with photos leaving g+
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] neroinlove:
anyone help me? tks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] wmuflyer:
How long do you wait? The first boot can take a significant amount of time 10+ minutes if I recall correctly. The next step would be to make sure you are on an updated TWRP for recovery. If that fails then I'd say flash the 5.1.x factory image and start fresh installing TWRP then Flash CleanROM6.0.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] lolcopter:
Latest TWRP version is 2.8.6 fwiw - https://dl.twrp.me/flo
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] paulbonner:
I agree with the "I wouldn't mind an update" responses. It would simplify things for the non-Play Store apps like AdAway. On the other hand, just before I read this discussion I was thinking that, great features and performance aside, one of the wonderful things about CleamROM is the scarcity of updates. Android 5.0? One release. 5.1? One release. 5.1.1? One release. The releases are right the first time every time, which sure beats six months of nightlies.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yeah, lets let it ride a little longer. Maybe they will do another update.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] neroinlove:
Thank you so much, i'll try...

I have a question, is Flo Bootloader 4.05 in a first page difference with twrp-2.8.6.0-flo.img (https://dl.twrp.me/flo/) ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] wmuflyer:
The bootloader (4.05) and Recovery (TWRP) are two different things, check out http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Bootloader and http://xdaforums.com/wiki/recovery
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
Don't forget that TWRP version 2.8.6.0 "can" cause bugs on installation on several devices, including on the Flo. Best thing to do is use the version right before it (can't remember what it is, but should be on the download page).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] neroinlove:
where is download page? i cant see it in 1st and 2nd post
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
Talking about the TWRP download page. You linked it about 2 hours ago in your post. 2.8.5.0 is the version prior to 2.8.6.0.

What a mess.... I was attempting to flash this ROM on my Nexus 7 2013 and somewhere down the line a cannot wipe anything. Can't mount any partitions...

Internal storage shows 0mb

I can adb push the ROM over to the device and an then see it in the TWRP wipe directory, but the device can't mount any partitions to

Using TWRP

Device:

flo 16g

HW version rev_e

Bootloader version FLO-04.05

secure boot - enabled

Lock state - unlocked.

Seems to be quite a mess out there on this little beast. All sorts of issues with this device...

Not quite sure where to start to fix this brick...

Rooted many devices in the past....

Any advice on where to start to be able to mount partitions greatly appreciated!

Cheers!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] wmuflyer:
Have you tried flashing the factory image then updating?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
I think that's what I did. I was able to boot up the system and I see 5.1. 1. I did NOT take any OTAs...I can get back to recovery but I still can't mount any partitions. ..

Root checker says I'm not rooted. ..hmm

Thanks!

EDIT:

BTW, I'm using TWRP 2.8.5.0...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
Ok, please don't take what I am asking/saying as offense, as that is certainly not my intentions. Just need some basic information in order to move on from.

Couple of questions:

When you say you booted up the system and see 5.1.1, is that Stock ROM or CleanROM?

If stock and you have custom recovery but no root, just flash SuperSU and you'll have it.

Why do you need to mount partitions? What is it you are trying or what is not working because of this?

Saying that you are booted up into some ROM right now, is your storage structure correct? Meaning do you have /data/media/0 or do you have /data/media/0/0? The second one will cause apps to not run, TWRP to not be able to see backups/restores/ROMs. Easy fix, but need to know if you have this or not before we try to fix something that may not be broken.

What is the error that you are getting when you flash CleanROM?

The TWRP version you are on is fine and the one that I am running.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
Absolutely no offense taken! I really appreciate your help!

Have to get to work right now....to be continued!

Thanks again!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
Sorry about the work thing. We all have to do it. Have a nice Friday and stop back in when you get a chance. I'm super busy today and tonight right into tomorrow afternoon (I'm in the same time zone as yourself), but I'll be mobile and will check in. Others in this thread are extremely helpful, so don't worry.

Ok, if it is stock, then that is good. Gives us a baseline. Just because there is no advance reboot, doesn't mean it is stock. CR doesn't have it, but rather an apk called Reboot Manager. Works just the same. When Scrosler tried to implement the ARM it broken headphone playback for some reason. Ya, I know. Weird right?

For SuperSU, you have 2 options. First you can flash the SuperSU.zip and update the binaries after you install the app from the market. Takes under 2 minutes. OR you can just flash CleanROM which is pre-rooted. You'll still have to update the binaries, but that can be done inside the SuperSU app.

If you can remember before you head off to work, what is the error it says when Factory Resetting or Wiping? If you flashed the Stock Img, there should be no reason to wipe. Just flash the stock.img, flash the recovery.img (still TWRP 2.8.5.0) Reboot to set up your partitions correctly. Then boot into recovery using VolumeUp+Power and flash CleanROM. First boot in LP takes upwards of 10 minutes, so don't freak and think that you are in a bootloop. Just needs to build the partitions properly before the OS can run.

Good luck and have a great day at work. It's Friday, y'all!!!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] IndianaBond:
As a last resort, use Wug's Root Toolkit to get back to completely stock nexus.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] nelomen:
Thanks for the awesome rom. It has been amazing on my nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
Awesome suggestions! I'm quite glad to have a job and go to work (medical imaging). I was "aged out" (ageism in engineering is rampant) of EE/CS after over 30 years in it (I worked for an unnamed company that, well, makes most of the chips in our devices...the main chips in phones and tabs..ahem..yeah. THAT one.) ...but I digress...

OK.. It's not a real error, per se, but when I try to wipe I get "Successful" but in the progress terminal I get MTP Enabled "unable to mount '/cache' or '/data or '/system' or any of the directories... It also shows, in the terminal window on the device as one does the wipe(s), unable to find partition size for '/boot' or '/recovery' and others...it seems to need a re-format to put the directory structure back in order.....grr...seems simple but noooooo! ;)

SuperSU says I need to re-root....hmmm

Ok...still at work, so I know this is minimal info....gotta give this some serious "sit-down" time....Saturday or Sunday...I need this device for control of my Phantom 3 quadcopter (drone) and I need all apps uninstalled that aren't absolutely necessary...if anyone is curious...

Y'all have a great Friday as well (grrrrr ain't a payday....but I'll take it) We'll get to the bottom of this despite my best efforts! :silly:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Enter bootloader and then type "fastboot format userdata"

All of your problems will be magically gone.

Need fastboot of course.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] madbat99:
Is this a new n7? Did it come with lollipop on it out of the box? If yes, this is a known problem with Twrp. You should try the multirom version of twrp.

You don't need all of multirom, just the recovery.

multirom downloads
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I dont think its relegated to new devices with TWRP. Mine has a build date of August of 2013.

Its an issue with TWRP on multiple devices.

Easiest way to fix it is to format user data

And to avoid in the future use "-rf" option in Options as this will only delete instead of format.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
No love, no magic,,...... fastboot format userdata didn't do it...just seemed to reset the default OS (5.1.1)...like it was "out of the box", but still unlocked (no root access)...

I think it's time to go to wugs root toolkit....and start fresh...I hope...

So much confusion on which recovery to use.....still not sure...

EDIT: This delightful device simply refuses to root. I did several iterations of Wug's root toolkit including lock/unlock, load factory image, root (with and without custom recovery)with no joy.... Also can't get to Recovery....just the little android dude on his back with the red triangle of death...I can still access the bootloader...what a time vampire this device has become....

Thoughts?

EDIT II: Got TWRP flashed...but still no root access...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
What version of TWRP? Remember that 2.8.6.0 is bunk, so just stick with 2.8.5.0.

Since you have the recovery installed, you should be able to install the CleanROM.zip that is pre-rooted. If for some reason it becomes unrooted, you should receive a prompt from TWRP before you exit out stating "The devices isn't rooted. Would you like to install SuperSU?", hit yes and you should be done. Wait the 10 minutes or so for first boot and then let it settle for a few minutes. Open your app drawer and look for the SuperSU icon. Edit: Open the SuperSU app. Here you'll probably have to update the binaries. Click Normal and let it run, then reboot.

I really just think that there is one key step that you are missing, but I just can't figure out where. I would also maybe check the md5 of your CleanROM zip to make sure they match. If not, then re-download before you flash.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
Yep. Probably a missing step.....somewhere....

Dumb question of the day.....is the "standard" CleanROM download pre-rooted? Or, is it a separate download?

(and thanks, once again)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Woody:
No worries man. I love helping out. Someone did it for me a long time ago and will do it again in the future. If I can help, I always try.

PreRooted. That's why I'm lost how this isn't working for you. I've literally flashed this on 4 tablets in my house and if it can get past the Mrs, then it's got the seal of approval from me. Lol
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Fastboot format userdata was to do exactly as you stated, wipe it clean. Next step is to boot the OS, copy over CleanROM, reboot to download, install TWRP, reboot to twrp and install CleanROM.

Yes it is.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
This is where the whole trouble is:

Fastboot format userdata (both cmd line and Wug's toolkit )appear to work, but in reality it really doesn't. Back to the original issue (or one of the original ones...) can't mount anything via TWRP (2.8.5.0). I pushed CleanROM over (via ADB) but it won't flash...lot's of "unable to mount <anything>" and " Unable to find partition size for <anything>." Internal still shows 0MB after all of these iterations...

And, TWRP is not "sticking" either....have to force it via ADB...

A pic to illustrate: (hope you can see one of these)

Mount fails:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Did you boot into the OS before taking any other steps? Or did you just try to flash TWRP and go?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
Both, methinks. ..

I take it that booting to the OS after TWRP is flashed is the preferred method?

if booting to the OS after flashing TWRP is correct, which method do I use to boot to TWRP? Power off, then use power+volume up, or immediately use power + vol up or ADB reboot, or ? Also, if I boot back to the OS, do I need to do anything with ADB debug mode?

Further, what would using TWRP multi do for me?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Nope,

My prefered method for your situations as follows...

1. Fastboot format user data.

2. Reboot to rom and proceed through set up

3. Copy ROM over and then reboot to bootloader.

4. Fastboot Flash TWRP

5. Reboot to TWRP, do factory reset. Nothing else. This is important!

6. Flash ROM.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] quickdraw86:
^ This is exactly why Scott's ROMs are an excellent choice for advanced users and novices alike, great support.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
Nope,

My prefered method for your situations as follows...

1. Fastboot format user data.

-- OK. Good.

2. Reboot to rom and proceed through set up

-- From bootloader, using power button , USB cable still plugged in. USB debugging on or off? I turned it on....

3. Copy ROM over and then reboot to bootloader.

Copy to internal storage /download/ using Windows Teracopy. MD5 matches.

ADB reboot bootloader -- ok

4. Fastboot Flash TWRP

syntax?? rename to recovery-twrp.img or keep the original filename?? which partition?? Does /sdcard/ equal "internal storage" can't mount to look...

fastboot flash TWRP --simply fails...

Used fastboot flash recovery twrp_2850_flo.img ---worked! well, not really...had to use fastboot flash recovery recovery-twrp.img

5. Reboot to TWRP, do factory reset. Nothing else. This is important!

...and here we are. Back to where it all failed...Cannot wipe anything or factory reset. Cannot mount anything. See pics above for errors.

The devil is in the details...

6. Flash ROM.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skeeter123:
Pretty sure at least...it did an OTA as well..

I'm also fairly certain that when I did the multirom thing, that's when I lost the ability to wipe or mount anything. I'll give it another try tonight.

Is there a certain iteration of multirom that I should use?

Firstly, Thanks to Scott and everyone else who is so helpful on this thread. I've been using CleanROM for a few weeks and love it. I'm not the most tech savvy, and this was the first time I'd flashed a ROM. The reason I started exploring other Rom's is since the lollipop upgrade, I've been having major issues with play store not working. I've factory reset numerous times, installed custom ROM's, changed the date, deleted #hosts file etc and still no fix with the "no connection to play store" issue. I understand this issue isn't specific to this ROM, but as Scott and the rest of you are so helpful, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas?

Thanks, Adam

I would like to upgrade my nexsus 7 2013 CleanROM 3.8.0

to latest build.

For the love of got i forgot everything i did a year ago to get this done ....

Main post doesn't tut how to upgrade. so here i am asking for help on this matter.

How to upgrade from Cleanrom 3.8 ?

Thx
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Good deal! Glad you got it working. You had me scratching my head a couple times as I read your posts. And big thanks to [MENTION=3200478]Woody[/MENTION] and everyone else for helping!

That error can occur when 1 of 2 conditions are met...

1. Play store is updating...

2. Google core services are updating...

To Fix...

Clear app data on Play Store and GMSCore (Google itself). Then reboot. Let the ROM settle then try again. Post your results :good:

Simple... If you have TWRP installed... simply flash the new ROM atop the old ROM. You "should" be good. However... I dont encourage dirty flashing... You may want to "Factory reset" before flashing while in TWRP. If you need more help state the step you are at.

Hi Scott,

Thank you !

(I will post what i did exactly so anyone else looking for this info will find it easy )

How to Upgrade CleanROM from older version to current version

1. I Updated the TWRP to latest version with Google play TWRP Manager.

2. transferred the latest boot file and flashed it first. (using Install from TWRP menu)

3. full wipe of the device (it deleted the rom i transferred to the device and i had to struggle abit with twrp to transfer it again)

4. restart the device and upload/copy the rom to the device (using TWRP)

5. Flash new ROM (using Install from TWRP menu)

Reboot device and wait around 10-15 for full load of the device.

enjoy
