Your talking about bootloader, not boot.img.

Two totally different things. Someone said how but I dont know the method. I do everything from PC.

Im sure someone else will be along to give you some advice.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Summit1:
I believe this is due to no wi-fi connection. Try wiping and install the ROM only . . . get wi-fi working and then flash GAPPS and reboot. Setup should work.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Bootloader 3.x on newer ROMS. Yeah, that could have caused reboots.

If your looking for tweaks an AOSP thread is not going to be the place to find them.

I bet the device needs a full factory reset.

Or he is using bad Gapps.

I would do Preview 3 install that will update and format everything then install recovery, ROM, and then SuperSU and Gapps that I linked to in OP.

I did my own tablet that way and it runs perfect.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] mrw1215:
Heh, yeah, no, I know. I've currently gotten very comfortable using AOSP/ GPE ROMs, while using Xposed + Gravity Box to give me all the neat little extras I like. Just makes me sad Xposed won't be an option for the foreseeable future.

Guys I just updated my chrome and that's what I get

I think I should install your new ROM I can't leave CR
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Nevermind, I figured out where the files are on Github.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Installs fine for me.

Ummmm

Dont really understand what you are saying?

What both of you should do is restore to preview 3 like I did and it eliminated all these errors. Then flash back. Mine runs slolid. Cannot get a root app to NOT work, no F/C in any apps, etc.

No navigation bar or status bar

Hello everybody.

I have just installed Build 4 on my deb. I have the following problem: there is no navigation or status bar at all on home screen. Also there is no lock screen of any kind. I flashed ROM via TWRP 2.8.1.0 also installed boot loader 04.04 before flashing.

I have seen guys posting this bug before, but I didn't catch on how to solve it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
You should post that issue in the CleanROM thread. It doesnt have anything to do with this ROM.

Install the Andoid L Preview 3 so it will reload the partitions and clean everything up. I have said this about 5 times out of my last 15 posts.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I posted this as one of the first lines of the OP...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Standy66:
But where is dev preview for deb?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
There is not one. Just flash the latest stock ROM image from google HERE.

Then follow the instructions in op about bootloader, ROM, etc. You will be humming after that! Trust me!

Also edited that post to reflect where to get the Deb files from.

broken USB port

I have flashed this ROM on my device without a super su as a start to see how things are going , everything was fine and smooth

so when I decided to flash the SU.zip I rebooted manually into the bootloader then into recovery , to find out my recovery is gone

:(

since I have a broken USB port and I cant use any cable , is there a way to get back my recovery without a root or a usb cable ???

I know I'm f*************d up here , as I can see the only way to fix that is by fixing my port which is a little bit hard at the moment

so ANY SUGGESTIONS???

:confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
What build and device did you flash?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
build 4 for flo , as used to be on clean ROM 3.7
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
What bootloader are you on?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
ops , it's FLO-04.02
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Nvrenough:
Same thing just happened to me lol

updated bootloader flashed everything booted fine but no wifi recovery lost

Now i cant flash twrp as i cant get wifi working and no way to get in to recovery to re flash

Rom working great if i had wifi :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Doesnt sound like you updated your bootloader. Let me think about this for a minute....

You need to read the op, also reboot to bootloader and tell me the version. Then go ahead and flash a factory image like I stated to do in the OP.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Man, without a working USB port I am out of ideas. You will need to get the USB port fixed.

You can rig it, like hold it in place or something? Its completely dead? How do you charge?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
its completely dead , so I'm using a wireless charging pad

for a bootloader thing I tried to flash the new zip file provided at TWRP but it couldnt for unknown error ,
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Damn, I cant think of a single thing that doesnt require the USB port. Sorry dude... Maybe someone else will have an idea?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Nvrenough:
04.04

will flash factory image :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] ATSPerson:
I have WiFi, I can see my sdcard, but I'm getting a lot of f/cs because

"Google Services does not support your device"

So I can't sign in to any Google app.

I've flashed the latest gapps I could find. Which version of Google Services do I need?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Please do and report back. Its fixed that problem for everyone. I cant explain why but it just does.

I even had it happen to me after about my 50th test flash... And I had to revert.

Let me know!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
yeah I know , the only logical thing im thinking about is to have an over wifi pdate script from google to update that device that can run over my device with TWRP recovery in it which I dont think it will be ever available

I tried once to repair my usb cable , and I opened my device bu I couldnt understand or see anything inside , so I think I need to search youtube for a way to fix it manually or send it over a repair shop some where here in no where
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Yeah, I searched for a bit to see if there was any way possible to connect to fastboot over WiFi. You can only ADB over WiFi but that wont help.

First thing I would do when I look at a bad USB port is physically LOOK at it, make sure not dust or debri, look for bent pins. One time I bent one down some and just had to bend it back up to make a good connection.

I wish you luck man!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
though I'm not really complaining about the current situation since everything here works fine specially WIFI with no FC at all at any place at this great ROM (yeah i know I'm still at the old boot 4.02)

but the only thing I have such a roblem at is not being able to play my injustice : gods among us game on lollipop,

so at this moment there are 2 choices for me

1- waitinf for the developer to fix the game

2-or I should move my a** and get this USB port fixed
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skiman10:
[MENTION=426561]scrosler[/MENTION] I wonder if this new format we compile in is the issue with all this wonky stuff happening. After reverting it is like a hard reset and let's us flash this format again... But it'll still cause errors until TWRP updates or something. Just me thinking aloud here. I still can't get root working on my ROM, so I'm doing a clean make and I'll probably go back to factory 4.4.4 and see what happens.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Well, at least you keep your wits about it!!! Most people would be freaking out but I think you knew going into it you had a bad USB port so it was only a matter of time until something went wrong, lol

Thats exactly what I am thinking and that is why I am telling people with issues to go back to factory images. TWRP 2.8.1.0 has worked well for me.

Also, did you edit your init.rc for root capabilities?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Ambious:
This is more of a question than a report, since I can't be sure if this is a ROM issue or not... But can anyone try to pair Bluetooth? I can't seem to pair my speakers (doesn't see any devices after scanning).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] skiman10:
Yea I did. I'm really confused right now because in theory it should be working just fine, but it isn't.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] phillysmako:
Does anyone know if there is a flash able zip for the latest bootloader? I can't get root working and I think my problem is I'm not on the 4.0.4 bootloader. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd flash it with my laptop but the keyboard is toast I had to order a new connector for it. Thanks in advance
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Have you looked at the twrp app to see if it can install twrp on your device? I know it can install it right from ROM on some devices.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I paired my phone to my tablet and sent some pics back and forth. Dont have access to headphones thought. Myabe someone else can say on that much.

What SuperSU are you using? This is still your ROM correct?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
It still needs super user to get worked
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Cr@p missed the super su part at the beginning of your message. Sorry about that.

Can you towel root to gain super user to get twrp installer?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] HTC Venom:
Nope.I have tried that
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
This is 5.0... Its not been rooted yet. And I am sure any Android version before this that had exploits were patched.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Well dang. I just read a whole report on how towel root will work on the nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Lollipop???
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
I'm trying to go back and find it. It was a couple hours ago taking about geohot, towel root, and lollipop... Unless I'm losing my mind.

Never mind, I'm an idiot. It was talking about towel root on the nexus 7, and made mention about the new lollipop and it's not working at this point and went on to a link about Chainfires work on root with lollipop. (Sorry for my idiocy, been on pain meds for a week now after knee surgery so my head is fuzzy). :thumbup:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
Earlier in this thread I posted on how you can run Lollipop if for some you can't flash the new bootloader using fastboot. The post is around page 93 or 94...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Chrome is smooth on this build.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] nazfalas:
This is confusing me again.

Just being super cautious about the bootloader. Do you mean we need to flash the flo 4.0.4 bootloader from preview for deb or just latest from the factory image?

Btw, very thankful for your work! Especially for supporting deb.

Sent from my PAC-OPO
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
Yeah...I normally use Dolphin, but as you say, Chrome is very smooth on this build...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Really so far, everything is pretty smooth.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
You should try it with bricked kernel for Lollipop...super smooth!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Prefer elemental x. Hell's kernel (I believe it was called) was pretty nice too.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Can you link to the thread please?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] exhibitA:
The file for the bootloader is at the bottom of post #1.

I downloaded it & unzipped it on my computer, hooked up the tablet & rebooted into bootloader, & then clicked on the update bootloader.bat file from the unzipped folder. Done.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] nazfalas:
I know how to flash the bootloader, but my question is which bootloader I need on deb (LTE version) as opposed to flo (wifi only version).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
Hellscore, yeah it's what I'm running atm.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Good stuff. Nice controller app as well. Worked well with these builds [MENTION=426561]scrosler[/MENTION] has been putting out. I just prefer my current kernel, I use it on all my nexus 7 Roms.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] A.C.Sanchez:
I hope you're female, because I want to make out with you right now. This is correct. No need to flash Dev build three, just turn on the gosh darn Wi-Fi.

THANK YOU :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Summit1:
LOL! Sorry but I'm male . . . and straight . . . LOL! Glad it worked for you!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I would start off with the latest Deb build factory images which are listed in the OP.

From there put on TWRP 2.8.1.0

Then Flash ROM, Super User beta, and the Gapps I linked to. You should be good.

FYI: You may not have to flash the Google images. I just recomend that for people who have an issue right off the bat. I would try it without first so you dont loose anything. IF you have funky problems then I would wipe it clean with the Facotry images.

UGH! lol :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I just messaged the people who make ES File Explorer and told them I would beta test a Lollipop build for them. They let me do a JB Beta last time so maybe they will get me a Lollipop build and then I shall share it (shhhh).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
The thing I like best about hellscore is the sound boost you get through the manager app (I listen to a lot of music using the N7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
Oddly enough, my es file explorer is working on this build. Going to double check now to make sure I'm not delusional again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] hhairplane:
It's the root explorer that doesn't work, not the standard side...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Summit1:
I was having that issue too. I carefully read scrosler's comments of late, and discovered I was using an older version of TWRP. I used Wugs Nexus Root Toolkit - Root button after checking Custom Recovery, two clicks and sit back and watch. Toolkit does its magic and TWRP 2.8.1.0 installed. I did a factory reset, installed the ROM build 4, installed SuperSU, installed GAPPS and the reboot came right up in setup, had me configure my Wi-Fi, login to Google and away she went perfectly after that. Only ISSUE - it took a while for Location to start working. After fiddling with a weather app and Goggle Maps for a while, turning location on and off, rebooting, turning it on and off again it finally started working. I'm rooted and SuperSU works like a charm. No known issues at this point!

Thanks scrosler for a great ROM!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:
I'm perfectly aware of what we were discussing. My root explorer works fine.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
Nice!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] hhairplane:
SuperSU might not be working the best on DEB, similar to how [MENTION=4876414]skiman10[/MENTION] is not able to get it working either. Busybox installed with the modded boot.img in Build 2, just not Build 4 and Skiman10's build.

Nice :), guess you got lucky. It seems like there's a lot of little things with root that's quite finicky in Lollipop.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Megaflop666:

Only the battery drain issue.

Oh, forgot to mention, I just got my hands on a used 2013 Nexus 7. Kitkat is a bit long in the tooth, so I figured out that trying out Lollipop wouldn't be a bad idea..
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
The alledged battery drain that some experience is a known issue and is being addressed by google. I see they have pushed some updates to the AOSP repo but not merged them yet.

So I am building a new set of ROMS for 11/9/14

Working with [MENTION=3667193]GROGG88[/MENTION] we figured out he stock recovery issue and now stop it from even building into the ROM! Woot!

We are well on our way to happiness!

Edit: Thanks to [MENTION=5334172]Gnome[/MENTION] as he was the one who fixed the code that [MENTION=3667193]GROGG88[/MENTION] found!

Whoa... Let's give credit to [MENTION=5334172]Gnome[/MENTION] as the fix was pulled from his git repo. All I did was hunt it down and test it. Regardless, its resolved at a source level like it should be.

I'm not so sure about this battery drain issue. I've found that when I turn off the nexus at the end of the night, on subsequent reboots the battery drain becomes less.

For example, I have 57% battery left atm, booted around 16.00 gmt.

Just thought I'd put that out there...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Big thanks to [MENTION=426561]scrosler[/MENTION], [MENTION=5334172]Gnome[/MENTION], [MENTION=3667193]GROGG88[/MENTION] for the recovery flash fix. L is shaping up now we just need the updated binaries google :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Word! This is starting to look nice!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
Ok people, Build, just like 1 through 4 has no changes other than the wallpaper. ITs all about how it was put together. Thanks to [MENTION=5334172]Gnome[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3667193]GROGG88[/MENTION] for the code to completely remove the stock recovery! That was the focus of this build.

I have tested it with SuperSu Beta 2.19 (linked in OP), And Gapps Dated 11/7 (Linked in Op). RUNS GREAT!

Deb is untested but should have the exact same results as Flo. Just remember that before you flash!

Edit: Screenshot is actual wallpaper but launcher is Nova and Gapps have been installed.

Enjoy!

Same bootloader. Was Flo-4.0.2 (I'm Deb). No problems with Flo-4.0.4
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] 53l3c7a:
I decided to pull the trigger and give Lollipop a try. My first attempt had issues, so I flashed the developer preview. First boot was taking forever, so I started Googling others' accounts. I let it sit for an hour before pulling the plug. After banging my head and more Googling, I saw a post that suggested re-locking and unlocking bootloader again. THIS WILL WIPE EVERYTHING. I tried it, and viola! Here I am enjoying some Lollipops. Not sure of this is old news for most users, but I figured I'd share in case someone else has my same misfortune.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
No kidding?

Ewww, thats another good idea. I did not think of that one!

Good add!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Scott:
I attached a flashable BusyBox to the OP. Some root apps may need it!

Its the same one you get from the installer on Play Store but this is a direct flash of the binary. You will not see anything in the app drawer.

Thanks to [MENTION=1335872]Stericson[/MENTION] for the binaries!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] hhairplane:

EDIT: Root on Deb is still finnicky. Most updated bootloader, flashed Busybox, flashed SuperSU 2.19

The apps show up in the SuperSU app, but the log shows all actions are denied...

So SuperSu works after a separate boot img has been flashed (the one made by darkobas)..... Perhaps the boot img hasn't been changed from Build 2?
