Thx for feedback. Does the Elementary kernel support USB-OTG and auto-wakeup via cover?

I like the way how to configure the current inbuilt kernel. :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
You are welcome, and YES it does. It supports both.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Papa Emeritus:
I'm using multirom on my Nexus 7 2013. Flashed your CM ROM and when I went to boot into it, I get an error saying I need kexec harboot kernel support (that wasnt verbatim but thats essentially what it said). I havent seen anyone with this problem. Any idea what it could be?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] teddy0209:
Just as it says, use a kernel with kexec patch to support multirom.

e.g., franco kernel, glitch,faux's kernel...

some rom also have it on their stock kernel...
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
I also think you need a multirom compatible kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
Exactly. You have to check in the Nexus 7 2013 threads which Kernels are compatible with Multirom.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Papa Emeritus:
Got Multirom to work. If you get that error, go to the install/ update> choose your current stock kernel. Now the problem is my wifi isnt working.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
I'm going to start building with the cm kernel. I have found the code that messes with the colour and I'll fix that so you can still flash aosp kernels.

Will start tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] teddy0209:
What kernel are you using as primary?

You should try Glitch or Franco and see if it works...
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Is Franco really running on our Deb?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
Depends what you are using to set them. Your issue is due to the Bricked kernel. If you use KControl you wont have any issues.

Visit the Bricked kernel if you need more details

---------- Post added at 11:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

Don't you think Bricked is much better?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Yes but as I'll be doing, people can just keep the latest version on their device to flash on each update.

I'm just giving people more options as some might want stock cm but with the option to flash a custom kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Sleepy!:
Go for Bricked or Glitch.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Thx for latest update.Currently testing.

Is is Kernel file in /system/etc/init.d/99kernel still needed, or can we delete this file?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Yes I added those features to the cm kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Yes to delete, or yes needed ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Sorry yes it's still needed
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
OK, then the settings are not working.

DOUBLETAP2WAKE=1 but do not work

LID=0 but aktive

Any suggestion?

Clean fresh install ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
I'll run another build, it's working on flo so won't be a big problem to fix.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Really not a big deal. :good:

LID is what I currently use and this one is working ;)

So we can use the 99kernel file to configure these settings as in the past?

BTW, if you find the bug, how can I fix it without flashing the new ROM?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Yes, those are the only features I've added.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Any suggestion for Governator/IO of current ROM?

Default settings?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
I'm still testing at the moment, I'm using interactive as that seems to be what qcom are using at the moment and cfq for io scheduler
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
New build up today with fixed lid and dt2w
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
So you will use Stock CM Kernel in future versions of your Rom?

Not Bricked?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
I'm just experimenting with battery life and performance at the moment. Cm have merged a lot of changes into the kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Bierfreund:
cm-11-20140217-bruce2728-linaro-deb.zip does not boot, but stucks at the google logo.

Had to flash zip from yesterday again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Thanks I'll remove the zip and do another build tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
MD5 was correct?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Bierfreund:
yes.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
So, you're using 16022014 versipn with new Stock CM Kernel?

How's the Rom for you?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Bierfreund:
I'm no hardcore user atm. Everything I nedd, except DT2W works (DT2W should be fixed in the newbuild)

I use cm-11-20140216-bruce2728-linaro-deb.zip with the built in kernel. OP says "...comes with Bricked kernel built from source..."
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Same here. :good:

All fine and good, but I think Stock CM Kernel is not as good (Battery friendly) as the Bricked in the previous version. But need more time to test...

Also think this needs an update ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
I've noticed that the cm kernel is setting the governor to performance, I'll do one more build with it for testing, if it isn't as battery friendly I'll go back to bricked.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Thx for your effort.

Currently changed to " interactive " - better now, but I think not as good as with Bricked. CM kernel used more battery compaired to my daily use.

How about SmartAssV2 Governator? I use this one in my other devices (Samsung Note and Sony Arc S) and it works great.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Any info what is changed in cm-11-20140218-bruce2728-linaro-deb.zip?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Not much, all settings in 99kernel should be working now and I changed the init.rc so it doesn't boot with performance gov.

I'm going back to bricked on flo/deb from the next build as battery life seems worse with cm kernel.

The stability fix made to the stock cm nightly a couple days ago has been in this ROM from day 1 so ignore that on the cm changelog.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Thx for your effort. Will wait for next build with Bricked Kernel. Had here the same result only 4 hours display time with latest build. Bricked was much better...
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] jkxklutz:
Does anyone here who uses titanium backup use the system backup when updating a new version of this rom?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Has the latest 02.22 version again Bricked Kernel included?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Yes
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
I just dirty flash the ROM, never had any problems.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] h0tkey:
I've just got a bootloop while switching to ART on 22-Feb ROM and pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2. Then wiped all the partitions except for the internal storage, reinstalled the above two zips, tried to switch to ART - and a bootloop again! Could I have done something wrong or is it a bug?

UPD: well, and the same happened when I wiped system, data and cache and then had only installed the ROM and no gapps at all: a bootloop (more than 10 minutes of spinning CM logo)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
That problem should be fixed, uploading now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] h0tkey:
I confirm that it's been fixed, switching to ART is being carried out without problems.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Thx for the latest 0225 version. Dirty flash over cm-11-20140223-bruce2728-linaro-deb.zip looks fine so far. Only Camera takes some time to be active, but that's not a big deal ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Thanks, it should be much better on battery, I caught a bug in the power hal, it was trying to activate touch boost which is handled by mpdecision in the kernel.

There are a few errors in the logcat while opening camera, I'll look into it when I have time.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
Wifi signal drops

Just reporting FYI:

After installing the 0225 package ( cm-11-20140225-bruce2728-linaro-deb.zip) I noticed that WiFi drops and you have to switch it on and off to get it back, although sometimes the only way to get it back is to reboot the tablet. If I go into WiFi settings it just shows that it gets stuck in the authenticating process.

I compared WiFi behaviour with my Smartphone and there was no problem with my phone, connection was stable, there was no signal dropping in my phone , it only happens with the tablet, so a possible WiFi signal problem at home was discarded.

This has not happened before in any previous build, I have been using this ROM happily for 2 months now and updating it almost with every nightly that has come out since.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Use same Rom here and no problem with WiFi. Always stable and connected. No special settings used - mostly all out-of-the-box.

Currently a dirty installation over 0223 release...
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
Thanks, actually I think it might be related to my home network settings after all. I recently changed net company got a new router (more powerful twice as fast connections) and I had a TP-LINK Wireless range extender which I configured and installed in the other side of my home. It proved useless as the router is faster in that area than the extender, and it seems that the extender settings somehow messes up with my Nexus 7 wifi connections. It happened again today when I was in that area and I disconnected the device only to find out that my tablet was able to reconnect back to wifi and that the speed is higher this way than with it. The strange thing is that it didn't seem to affect my smartphone, only the tablet, Sorry for pointing out something that is not ROM-related ! :( and thanks for your comment user_99.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
You're welcome.

Yes it could be very tricky to found such nasty bugs in his own WiFi hardware. And yes some extender can be really nasty and you lost a lot of time to find out that this device was the problem. ;)

In my case it's very easy to find such a problem: WiFi hardware is used for more than two years and works stable as a rock - so it must be me or the tablet :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
It has always been an issue on this ROM actually. Camera has always taken a long time to start (and sometimes crashes)

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

Battery life is a bit better but definitely not at the level it used to be unfortunately :(

I am on 2/25 with a flash of the original bricked over the ROM (And using ART)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
It must be something cm commited as I haven't changed anything device wise. It was even worse with stock kernel.

If you are flashing bricked over the top you will have magnetic lid always enabled which may use slightly more battery.

And don't forget as a device gets older the battery life will deteriorate over time.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Battery life is much better with 0225 version as the version before. My device is new so not a Battery age problem. But I also think older releases had a better Battery life than the latest one. With Stock CM kernel I got 4 hours Display time - with latest one 7 hour. So that's better but depends how to use the device ;)

Thx for your work Bruce...
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Bierfreund:
Some stuff i would lave to have integrated in the ROM:

- Always show type network signal icon. Cyanogenmod

- [Xposed][2.3+] NetworkSpeedIndicator v0.9 (Improvement from Dzakus's great work)

- [MOD][XPOSED][4.0+] DoubleTapToSleep v1.0

- option to also display date and weekday in the statusbar.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Please do not add this Xposed stuff. I like a clean, fast Rom and currently this Rom is that kind of Rom I like. If someone wants xposed & its modules, easy to install that kind of stuff by yourself. Do not blow up, please ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
I agree, it is very likely to come from some of the CM11 commit. Hopefully they'll fix it down the road.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] powdered_donuts:

Quick flashable holo flavored theme zip and undo zip from some of the candy shop items.

Included:

Zenyth navbar buttons with ring highlights

holo X searchlight

holo nexus lockring

holo glow dots

chrome black scrubbers.

couple other things

Not a heavy theme just a bit of subtle holo love for your nexus.

I can add or subtract to this if anyone wants.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] h0tkey:
The performance with ART runtime seems to have been significantly improved in 01-Mar build, so does the battery life at first glance, will take a more careful look :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
Same feeling here. Too bad I am already flashing the Mar 5 ahaha :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
I have A LOT of random fc and rebooting with your two last versions.

3/6th is the worst but 3/5 did have some too.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
I have been using 3/5 for the past 3 days and have had no random reboot at all, perhaps is some combination in your tablet of ROM, kernel, or some App because the ROM itself has been rock solid and smooth (at least to me).
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
Using Bricked and ART. No specific apps. I have issues with many apps, from Google Maps to Chrome or Whatsapp.

The fact I am slightly undervolted could play a role but I never had issues before.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
OK, then maybe ART could be the cause (it's combination with some app(s) ). I am still using Dalvik so unfortunately I don't have a say in this...

Post EDIT: I am installing 3/6 right now as I type here, I am curious to know how stable the newest version is ( didn't even know it existed , that's why I had't tried it til now)

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

I can now confirm that the installation of 3/6 has gone well, up to now no reboot problems , I ran a set of Antutu benchmarks and it also didn't freeze , furthermore I got very good score 26419 (almost exactly as in the previous 3/5 ROM version). Of course I am still on Dalvik, no ART here.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] h0tkey:
Using ART and the in-built bricked kernel of Mar-06 ROM, I have neither issues with Google Maps and Chrome nor random reboots.

I am not undervolted though, so it really may be a reason.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
Since there is a new TWRP 2700 available, should we update or can we still use older 2630 recovery for this Rom?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
I have tried it with both, and with both it's OK, I installed first with TWRP 2.3.6 then I upgraded to TWRP 2.7 and re-installed again the latest ROM from 6/3 and everything went smoothly.

EDIT: Sorry I have just realized that there are 2 other updates since march 6. I was only looking at the alternative link because that seems to be faster and there it only shows ROM of 3/6 as the latest. Right now I am downloading and will test ROM from today (3/12) with TWRP 2.7 and tell you about it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
The other server has locked me out I have to contact the owner when I have time.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
CONFIRMED! Upgraded to ROM 3/12 using TWRP 2.7.0.0 without any problem, up to now everything running smoothly :)

EDIT: Antutu Benchmark: Almost 27 thousand (26919) this is the overall 2nd best mark it has ever achieved! :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
Today's build has a new setting in device settings > more.. For USB fast charge.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] User_99:
So new TWRP is not really nedded for newer releases.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
No the old twrp still works fine here.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bournefusion:

This rom is excellent and I'm really enjoying it on my new LTE N7. I particularly love the tap to wake and sweep to sleep feature.

Have a beverage of your choice on me.

[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bournefusion:
Bruce, I've been reading about how to get sms to work from my lte N7, and I see that most mods are for roms based on stock. At the risk of asking a very noobish question, is this rom what could be called "based on stock?"

Perhaps more clearly, is there a way to incorporate sms to this rom? I would love for my note 3 to be able to sync with my N7.

I may be way off base. Is that even possible?

Thanks again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] teddy0209:
This ROM is cm... Stock is the official ROM for the device from Google or from OEM's... Use xposed and the n7 SMS module to enable SMS on any custom ROM regardless of what it's based... That's the easiest way...

Edit: by the way, some ROMs have SMS enabled by default, though I don't remember which specific ROM has it...
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
This ROM has SMS enabled by default, at least it did the last time I checked.

I don't have the lte version, mines just WiFi but I did enable SMS a while back.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
New build up...

Now mirrored on goo.im the link is in my signature.

Will upload to the other links when I've had my dinner.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bournefusion:
Flashed and running it now. Really nice!
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
Amazing battery life on the latest iteration of the ROM.

I don't know what CM11 nighties have fixed but it is the best battery life I have had so far
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] care*bear:
hello Alcibiade have u tried playing clash of clans in your n7 using this ROM? is it just normal that the battery is draining so fast when playing that game?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
Haven't tried it sorry. Used extensively some trading application (Interactive Brokers), browsing, whatsapp, etc...

And it's really the best I have had so far
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
Bruce,

I've noticed that you have uploaded 2 newer ROMs in your Goo folder but they are not present in the link you provide in the first post (the latest there is of 3/17 , and in Goo you have 3/19 and 3/20 for FLO) .As I have the Goo manager App installed in my Nexus 7 I get reminded that there is a new version of the ROM, so this is where I know this from. Any particular reason for this?
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
My internet keeps going down lately, they are doing some work in my area so I've only been able to upload the ROM once per day without it failing halfway through.

I'll still use the mirrors when I get the chance, probably Monday.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
Thanks Bruce for telling us this. It is Ok for me to use Goo , I was just curious to know if we can user the newer versions from there.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bruce2728:
New build up on goo.

Hi guys,

I have a quick question. Has anyone had any play store issues. Mine keeps saying I'm not connected to the internet. When clearly my 4g and WiFi works on chrome.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] bournefusion:
On the March 23rd build I have had no issues. Perhaps try clearing the cache and data on the play store app and rebooting . When I've had weird issues before with the play store that generally fixes things for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] Alcibiade:
No issues for me either on 17th and 23rd versions.
[Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Android Development] fdomi:
I haven't' had any problems either with 03/23 Linaro version. I have noticed though, that there is a "ODEXED" version also of date 03/23 , which is a bit bigger in size (251 mb) , can you please enlighten us Bruce, which are the differences and to whom is recommended for downloading and installing?

New buid up.

This build has the correct kernel, correct binaries and built from kitkat device tree so if this doesn't work then I can't do much more without a device to test on (I already have a flo so that isn't gonna happen). AFAIK deb has the same hardware as flo apart from the radio, so I see no reason why it shouldnt work as my flo build runs fine.

Please backup (or dual boot) and let me know how it is, thanks :)
