The actual firmware is the os update. Google collects any and all individual chip and sensor manufacturer's updates and includes them in an os update. If you're looking for the system img, Google has then available to download. This rom is the system partition plus busybox and SuperSU. You may need to manually update your bootloader first. The instructions and links are in the op. Franco kernel is very good and I personally use it as well. I'm surprised you are having lag issues. Have you updated the kernel lately? He puts out updates about once a month or so.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bshiznit:
Agree and thanks for helping clarify!

Here is the zip from inside the factory image - https://mega.co.nz/#!rI0xxCqT!AH0bZuUdQklJWkbnyLcigA2g0-1fIBIG3mTPCTran1E hopefully this will help you.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Luigiesin:
Yeah.. I'm using r80 which is the latest one..

Don't know why it is so laggy.. It's horrible.. And I had wiped prior to flashing 4.4.4 which leads me to think it's a FW issue since I just flashed the ROM, not the full package.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ffejy462:
Get a logcat of your device while it's laggy. There's an app called catlog in the play store. It'll show a running log of everything in the background. You will able to see warnings, errors, etc. It's pretty handy for tracking down misbehaving apps and other issues.

The Dev host link is working for me mate I can upload it to media fire if that helps
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TabletConnect:
I updated to 4.4.4 running MKernal a68. Previously, my N7 was laggy. With the update, it is still laggy, actually slightly more. Not sure why. I cleared Dalvik cache and regular cache before updating. I will use Catlog to post log and see if someone can help.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TabletConnect:
Anyone?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ffejy462:
Well, I'm certainly no expert, but I compared your logcat with mine and they're pretty similar. I don't really see anything that would cause serious lag. I've never used action launcher... Try saving your launcher settings and use Nova just for comparison. I also use Franco kernel, but m kernel should be OK. I've read complaints from people that have their sdcard nearly full on their Nexus 7, experience lag... I always keep 2-5gb open all all devices.

I've recently switched over to f2fs. So far the results are pretty impressive. Antutu went from 14500 to 18500. Same rom (f2fs of course) and kernel (f2fs). That may be of interest... It's pretty involved, so do some research and prep if you consider it. There are quite a few threads dedicated to f2fs for the Nexus 7.

Will this update the boot loader as well or do i need to flash the bootloader via adb, then flash this in recovery? Already unlocked/rooted, running older version of CM.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Luigiesin:
Hey guys.. Does anybody have the latest FW no wipe for the N7 2012?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bshiznit:
Bootloader must be flashed separately. If you are already on 4.23 no need to worry...

Hi there ,

I flashed it over a 4.3 custom rom without doing wipes ,Everything is well except one thing ! It's too slow ! Apps run slower than 4.3 version.

What's wrong with that !?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bshiznit:
Of course find it attached!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bshiznit:
Yeah the size is a bit smaller I rebased it a bit and noticed the KRT16S patch may have removed some junk too...

If coming from stock 4.3 (JWR66Y) or stock 4.4 (KRT160 or KRT16S) should not need to wipe data! All ROMs near as I can tell already format system so that's redundant but won't hurt!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bshiznit:
Make sure your internal storage has plenty of free space... Might be a good idea to use titanium to back up all your stuff and wipe data then reflash and restore your backups incrementally...

Hi [MENTION=1747182]twics[/MENTION] no dumb questions so don't worry!

I expect no wipe will be required once we get the ota and factory image. Also I did compile Android 5.0.0 using the 4.4.4 proprietary binaries. Pure stock may have better hardware performance and support though an aosp recompile on my end will fix that ? also stock will include all Google apps as opposed to the minimal set we flash in aosp

5.0

Hi all. I've had this tab since it came out. She's old now, in tech spec, but still way serviceable. Especially rooted and ad blocked with CPU tweaks. Great ROMs out there. I stayed stock. Then took the lollipop upgrade so happily! And it sucked. Great OS! But killed my quick little tablet. I tried clearing the caches, no. I tried stopping G Now to little effect. This dang thing was unusable, five minutes from click to fruition. I downgrades, went back to 4.4.

Things get interesting. Using the newest TWRP, backup and make it safe. Install... It takes! Clear all, wipe... Reboot. All clean! It's fast! I... Still... Have... Lollipop... How?! With KK speed! Whaaaaaa? I'm running 5.0 it says, but that can't be, I flashed 4.4! But L still exists. With portions missing. Cool...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
That's a strange one for sure.....its a slight coincident cause iv been using the lollipop version v1.5 for while now but like you said it got very laggy at times and some of my games stopped working properly ie World Of Tanks just kept crashing lagging , I also have a games controller made by pivot, that stopped working too, yesterday I installed KitKat 4.4.4 by mistake...don't ask lol but yea I did but my N7 2012 is working great again I'm able to play World Of Tanks with no lagging at all, but I have not tested my controller yet but when I find it I will .
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ghostinrags:
That is too weird. Glad it's not just me! I used my controller today with San Andreas and it was like brand new, hopefully you'll be fine as well. For the life of me I can't understand how you can flash, have parts survive the flash, and not only not crash or brick, but become better! I've had TWRP give me strange behavior before, but that always resulted in a failed flash or it would say it flashed and nothing changes. This is new territory that I've seen. Pretty cool.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Hi. I just installed this rom. It gives me a notice that an update to lolipop 5.02 has been downloaded, and to press to update. If i press it what will happen? Will it update or will i get error message?

Thanks,
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
You won't be able to install it as you have a custom recovery, I would like to get rid of the notification too.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cosmickamal:
After trying LP, this rom works spectacular. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] spocko:
I've been running this ROM for a long time with no problems. In the last few weeks, I noticed that SystemUpdateService is keeping the device awake continuously, and running down the battery even when the tablet is not in use.

I went into recovery and cleared cache and dalvik, and that did not help. I checked that fotakill.apk is still installed in /system/app. I also ran the DisableService app, and it shows that SystemUpdateService is disabled within both Google Services Framework and Google Play Services. In spite of all this, when I look in BetterBatteryStats, it still shows SystemUpdateService with a continuous partial wakelock.

I am not getting any kind of visible update notification. The installed version of Google Play Services is 7.8.99. I deleted and reinstalled it, and that didn't help either.

Anyone have ideas about how to fix this? Thanks!

UPDATE:

After further searching, this seems to be a common problem with Google Play Services 7.x, not specific to this ROM or the Nexus 7. I have no idea why it just started affecting me recently. With newer versions of Google Play Services, disabling SystemUpdateService will cause the wakelock issue. It must be enabled to avoid the wakelocks. Then we have to find another method to disable OTA updates.

I found several discussion talking about disabling specific receivers within Google Play Services, for example:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/co...s_the_new_play_services_7x_presenting/cpgxscx

Unfortunately this doesn't work anymore because SystemUpdateService$ActiveReceiver gets automatically reenabled on reboot. Other people have reported the same. I wasn't able to find a solution. The update notification appears and cannot be dismissed by pressing the "later" button. For now I just disabled notifications for Google Play Services via the app manager. At least the wakelock issue seems to be fixed.

Grrr, I really hate Google right now!! Why the heck do they go to such great lengths to force updates on us? (sorry for the rant)

[Nexus 7 Android Development] rahimali:
Read the OP. It's for Grouper only.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Soulrider85:
Okay, I read in the same thread that somebody istalled it on the 3g version....Is KTU84P not the same for both tablets?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] JT1510365:
It is the same for both tablets but it is the android version code for the device

This is still a grouper rom because this rom is running android version KTU84P 4.4.4 KitKat but you can not install it on the nexus 7 3g because it is not tilapia its a grouper based rom which is for the nexus 7 wifi only not any other model

For example theres these android version codes:

4.4.2 KOT49H

4.4.4 KTU84P

Both can be associated to any device such as a samsung tab 3 running a kitkat based rom but you can only flash roms to a device for that device model Codename only that is specified in the ROM thread.

Here are some examples of device model codenames:

Nexus 9 Wifi: Flounder

Nexus 9 LTE: FlounderLTE

Nexus 4: Mako

Nexus 7 2012 Wifi: Grouper

Nexus 7 2012 3g: Tilapia

Hope this helps:)

I want to no why the builds form grouper and tilapia had the same name in the stock rom 4.4.4 when they are different builds?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] JT1510365:
its the android version code this kitkat version has a unique code attached to it thats for every device such as the s4 s5 or even devices like thr htc m8 this is not the device codename its the android codename for its version why dont you look it up i cant explain further

OK I will triple check in my v1.2 build with those apps - SuperSU has a daemon that runs "daemonsu" and if for some reason that's not running 24x7 you can lose root... it runs at startup via /system/etc/install-recovery.sh which is a bit wonky. Hopefully Koush or Chainfire can find a better way but for now "good enough" I guess.
