Discovered one minor thing. When USB flash drive is unmounted and removed the tablet freezes then reboots. If I leave the flash drive inserted after the unmount there is no crash.

Is this a faux kernel problem you think?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] poondog:
Yes it is, known problem

I know either intersectraven or imoseyon fixed it in their kernels :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
New build is up. cm-10.2-20130906-UNOFFICIAL-grouper.zip

This one was built by DJL, with Linaro for the kernel and SM-toolchain for the rom.

Changes here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45272395&postcount=2 .... plus it includes SlimPie.

If you have issues,wipe, flash rom,reboot,and then flash gapps. Still got issues? Flash a different kernel.

I know I haven't been active much, work's been hectic. I just got back,cleaned up my source,built one and everything's good. From now on,I'll be available here with updates from time to time. Sorry for the delay. Have a good day.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
Was waiting for this long time.

Will give it try when came home. Thanks dexter :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] poondog:
All good here on the new build :)

Many new features since I tried it last :P

Just a question which kernel is being included as default now? I see its been compiled by DJ himself from motley base still?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Just stock cm kernel with linaro fixes for now.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
Didn't boot with clean flash. Dirty flash on PA worked and every thing is good for now. Using stock kernel(in zip)

Will feedback in next days.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
Dirty flash over PA worked?? haha. That's the weirdest thing I've heard. Lol.

Anyway, i think the kernel's causing the boot issue, i had bootloops too, so i flashed it along with Franco kernel and all's well.

I recommend you try again, before you experience any issue from PA,lol

Nice. Going to flash this when i get home. Can I use M-kernel?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
Yeah it's working, i'm confused too. Even apps and data are here. PA and CM, doesn't make sense!

Tried with M-Kernel and didn't work. Will give franco or faux a try.

Btw great rom. Only have one question, is there any option for getting toggle/notification in PIE? And not in status bar?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] androidfr33k:
It may have completed the first boot if I was more patient but when I rebooted the 2nd time it started up!!

This rom is way a lot better than the official one. Good job OP !
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
I waited for about 10 minutes, but didn't worked that way. But i didn't try rebooting again and again.

Will give it a try. Thanks

Ok thanks, no problem here :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
Here's what I found now:

For clean flash, first boot should be via Franco kernel. After booting, it's possible to flash other kernels.

Now clean installed and running M-kernel without any problem.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Eeelgen:
Launcher (Nova) animations and scrolling are somewhat choppy compared to official nightlies. Really nice features though.

Here' s what i did to install this ROM

-Factory Reset

-Flash ROM

-Flash Minimal Gapps by Banks

-Flash Kernel Cleaning Script

-Flash Lean Kernel v2.2

-Successful boot
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
I didn't try other kernels yet. Only Franco and M-kernel. Will try Lean.

that "kernel cleaning script" is like faux reset kernel flashable zip?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] putomacao:
I think so Buddy, but just to be safe, just use kernel cleaning script, it works like a charm. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] YayYouFixedIt:
This is very fast and solid. Good work. Thanks. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] androidfr33k:
Do you have a link for kernel cleaning script? If you do a complete wipe (advanced wipe) dalvik, cache, data, system, external-sd, doesn't that wipe kernel to?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] old_fart:
Did a clean install. Ya, had a do the power off and re-boot four times, but on that fourth one, it worked. So, this is how generic looks ? But, sad to report... cannot restore anything with TiB and then BusyBox tries to load but stops and does not finish.

.

Previously had Scott's CleanRom 4.0 running . . . Hmmm, but I did a clean !
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
Found it here. Don't know if full wipe will clean older kernel too or not.

This ROM + LeanKernel v2.2
[Nexus 7 Android Development] nimbold:
Really good! My score was 6H 30M with M-kernel. Now I'll try this one.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Clark Joseph Kent:
Sir, check OP regarding TiB....
[Nexus 7 Android Development] androidfr33k:
The OP from that link last post mentions that most programs will do this anyhow. I am assuming TWRP will wipe the kernel for you. He mentions his program would be good for if you fastboot flash then his utility would be useful in that regard.

We should be good to go with TWRP no need for the wipe program if you install roms/kernels from TWRP or CWM.

EDITED:

Now I can't get my mind of this. I bet the only real way to clean the kernel would be to ./fastboot flash boot.img (Google Stock) That would for sure give you a fresh or clean start for the kernel no?

EDITED:

The roms contain a boot.img so that in and of itself would wipe any old kernel out of the picture and give you a clean kernel. Don't think Kernel Clean Utility would be needed for ROm updating but for kernel only updates only I don't know? DOes a kernel only update flash boot,img or just the kernel in boot.img?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] putomacao:
I understand your point, we just need to use TWRP or CWM to wipe and reset our device, what I'm pointing out is the use of Kernel Cleaning Script after ROM install before using a different kernel, to eliminate bugs and old kernel files. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] androidfr33k:
So that makes more sense. I don't think you have any option to just clean the kernel in TWRP or CWM so good point!!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] poondog:
Just reflash the ROM. If you're flashing the stock Google boot you will be losing the custom ramdisk from DJ (whether its CM or modded)

Yes when you reflash the ROM, the updater script tells it to wipe boot and system, replacing them with that is in the zip (well boot is kind of overridden anyway). Its the best way to go about it imo
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
I wouldn't suggest flashing a non CM compatible kernel. It may work but can cause issues.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
Is it just me or is Hangouts really unstable on this ROM? For some reason Hangouts v1.1.2.778356 crashes a ton for no reason.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Works really well on flo I can't see what would cause issues on grouper. Did you try wiping its data?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Clark Joseph Kent:
Gtalk....FTW! ;) No hangouts here....I push the gtalk app 4.2.2 via root explorer/copy/paste/set permissions.....all is good to go! ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
I did everything to try and fix it. Nothing works.

EDIT: I do not want to use gtalk. There should be no reason for Hangouts to crash.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Correct it shouldn't be
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
I'm gonna get a logcat of the crash hopefully it'll clear things up. If I get anything I'll edit my post.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] poondog:
No problems here :) which gapps?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
I used the Banks 9-3 gapps. Maybe that is the problem. The thing is, I downloaded Hangouts from the playstore because it isn't included with the gapps so that cannot be the prob.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
goo.im/gapps are the standard ones. Zero issues

[Nexus 7 Android Development] androidfr33k:
I was not really clear on my kernel clean method, it was a suggestion of a way to do a kernel clean then to follow up with a cm compatible kernel but what I suggested did not make sense anyhow since your ROMs flash a compatible kernel (boot.IMG)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] poondog:
Just to he clear in case people are confused

Kernel= zimage

Boot.img contains both zimage and ramdisk

Incompatible ramdisk or zimage will cause boot problems especially with CM Roms
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pan.droid:
Dude, thanx for this. Your profile is impressive. I'm curious to know if there's anything in the works in terms of Linaro implementation for PA nightlies. PA seems to be most solidly favored by N7 users. Anyway, I can't imagine a more welcome project. Either way, I'll be flashing this even though I'm pretty disenchanted with the overall decline in innovation since CM7. Yeah, that's supposed to be a compliment;) Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
So I've noticed some things off/broken about the latest build, let me list them:

- Interface>LCD Density> = "Tablets and older phones use 160. Most phones use 240. Nexus 7 Flo uses 320 by default."

- Recents RAM Bar = It might just be me, but this is usually on the top of the screen, not at the bottom where it can be accidentally tapped on whenever tapping the "Clear recents" button.

- Halo>Allow floating windows = This does not work without Halo itself on the screen. It doesn't even work when it is on the screen. It only works when accessing notifications through Halo.

- Lockscreen>Widget Pager = Defaults the lockscreen widget to LockClock, instead of a widget that the user chooses.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pan.droid:
Is it something I said?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
1. Noted.

2. Happens. Not a bug. Supposed to be that way.

3. Works fine here. Goto halo-uncheck and check floating windows. Try now.

4. you can change widgets,press and hold them in the lockscreen.

Thanks for the compliment. Anything else? :)

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
2. I know its not a bug, but it is kinda tedious whenever you tap of the RAM bar instead of clear recents button.

3. Thank you, but no thanks. I've tried that before and it didn't/still hasn't worked. I have not modified anything major so nothing should be conflicting with it.

4. If you look at the attachment, this is what happens when you have the "Widget Paper" option checked and you try and change the widget.

Also, please don't take any comments of mine in the wrong way. Im not a noob like most people here at XDA; I actually know what I'm doing (although sometimes not).
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
Alright. I will do a new build some time today. Try a clean flash maybe.

Btw,didnt assume you were a noob, just trying to be clear enough to avoid further questions/posts.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] putomacao:
Chill buddy, we all want to learn, and always remember.... All experts comes from being a newbie. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
1 OK .... so select stock DPI settings and you will clearly see a option for N7 grouper 213 and N7 flo 320. Default for every other ROM including SlimBean where the feature is from has it say Galaxy Nexus uses 320 by default.

2 Really your personal preference and I get that.. Mine happens to be on the bottom. All the source is on git if you would like to build it to your liking.

3 there are many ways to activate floating windows without HALO even being enabled. Long click on notifications, long click on resents windows, and a option to launch quick settings windows in floating windows. All of which work on the three devices I've built this for.

4 Default behavior and what works on my devices is it will default to CLock if you don't select a widget and leave it blank. If you set your own widget to replace the clock it will save.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
Alrighty thank you! I never dirty flash so I dont think that is the problem.

I am chill, just want to express my concern about a few problems I found within the ROM.

Thank you for the input! I never would've thought to long press to open up an app from the notification bar because well, the option doesn't seem to state that. Plus, if you enabled that option in settings you'd expect it to work how it says it will rather than having to long click then select the floating windows mode. It would be awesome to have an option to switch between long press and tap for floating windows mode in the notification center.

I understand 1 & 2, but 4 still doesn't work for me. I have tried many times to get Dashclock on the lockscreen with the "Widget Paper" option enabled and it will always default back to CLock.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] yukkio:
Hi, guys, I'm reading about the 4 points of the discussion.

4. If you put an app to use floating windows from recents app, Is it permanently in floating mode or only while it' in background?

Thanks.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Shmi117:
So I flashed the new build and I'm kind of disappointed on how the Widget Pager feature still doesn't allow me to change the widget being portrayed without breaking the primary widget.

Another thing is that floating window in the notification panel does not work on single tap. If someone enables that option wouldn't that mean that they want every app to open in floating window mode? I mean, the time it takes to open it just by tapping on it and going to the app itself is actually shorter than having to hold down on the notification you want to switch to then tapping on "Floating Window." Seems a little redundant as to why it is implemented that way (probably dev's preference if I am not mistaken so I'm not sure if this is willing to change).

Another thing I've noticed was the DPI setting. It says the default for N7 is 320, which it actually isn't, it's 213. I understand you can click on the option and it will tell you that, but it is still incorrect. The only thing different from the last build to this one is that the dev removed "Flo" from that sentence. Again, nothing major, only a minor mistake (so not really important but I felt I should point it out).

I might seem a little too foregoing in this post, but it is all in good faith. I only want the best for this ROM considering it is the best on grouper. Thank you for the ROM nonetheless!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
1. The widget part is common to all CM/based roms, and we want to stay as close to CM as possible.

2. I get what you are trying to say, but the point is opening the app as a resized layer over another app ( what ParanoidAndroid refer to as multitasking ). These are kanged from PA so it wont change unless they do. Plus something is better than nothing, the menu just had "App Info" earlier. Just giving choices to make use of. I do find it useful though. You can also use Halo to open the notification rather quickly.

3. Dammit :( this has been fixed. I thought my source had the changes. Looks like the sync didnt pick it up,or maybe i did the build before it was made. here's the fix commit https://github.com/DJL10-2/android_...mmit/d60ee1ad2b684492f84af4e2e09b98ff7874ee20

I will make sure it is included next build. Hope it doesnt annoy anyone cos its not a bug,just a typo. Thanks for the heads-up.

No problem at all. Constructive criticism/feedback is ALWAYS appreciated. Thank you. :)

P.S. excellent job with the 9/6 build. I think you need to put Linaro back in the thread title, provided it's here to stay. I'm hoping to see the ability to match nav buttons and statusbar icons for athletic unity plus privacy enhancements are always welcome=)

Also, thoughts on "Bionic" and "Skia" tweaks mentioned in Purity ROM, if any, are welcome=)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TheDarkDefender:
I've tried a lot of ROMs with linaro,on grouper and I honestly haven't seen any difference from the usual behavior. So I'm just taking a pass on it for now to avoid extra work and errors. I like the rom as it is. I might give it a try later, if it actually makes a difference. Don't know how you guys feel about it.

Privacy guard and app ops are there. Not sure what you meant by matching navbar and status bar.(similar colors/transparency??)

The dalvik,bionic and skia tweaks you see on purity have definitely appeared to smoothen things up. I've come across aosp based ROMs using those tweaks, but I'm not sure they'll be cm friendly. I ll take a look when i have time. Thanks.

Looks like a great ROM but I can't see the download link. Am I being blind or is it not there?:o
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pan.droid:
Awe, but you're both so talented!

I'm telling ya, your ROM has brought CM back from the brink, for me. It's got a near perfect combination of features with little to no performance draining junk or sloppy code. It's really exactly what CM10.2 aught to look like right out of the gate and what it would look like if not for the conflict of interest with Samsung.

The experience has been quite odd. Every time I think I've finally found an issue with it I've been wrong. No dual panel settings? There's an option for that! Hate hitting enter after providing a pin? Same! Of course I've seen all these things before, but you've done such an excellent job of tastefully curating features that offer a great deal of aesthetic+utilitarian bang with negligible drag on performance. That's a damn-near impossible line to toe!

Regarding DJL's offer to add Linaro toolchain: AWESOME.

IMO it would defeat the point to loose TDD as the chief creative architect to take on the optimizations generously offered by DJL. I know Linaro might not turn a grouper into a flo, but if it helps counter balance some of the performance drain of - say - enabling FSYNC that, for me, would be well worth waiting even a week longer per release than without the changes (as long as they come).
