Alright! I will flash and report back.:D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
awesome ty

Edit: flash the boot.img thats the latest one

note the boot.img is ALL-F2FS only
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Uhhh, I flashed the kernel first from this liink http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55495003&postcount=637&nocache=1&z=9432160297874362. Do I need to flash boot img first before flashing the kernel?@.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
no

thats just an older build of only the zimage

i did a rebuild with lp oc to 740

in the boot.img

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55500064&postcount=647
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Ohh, so how do I flash this?@.@ And is this the kernel itself? Sorry Im a noob.xD
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
your ALL-F2FS right?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Yup.:) So how do I do this? I flash boot.img then kernel from the link I posted?@.@ Please guide me master.xD
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
the boot.img is all you need

just downloade Rashr from google play

then open it

then select kernel

then choose other from storage

and look for your boot.img you downloaded

and flash

but backup your kernel from recovery first just if something where to go wrong
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Flashed the img successfully and wow, what a noticeable difference! My Antutu before was 18952, and it jumped to 20583! Thanks master! :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
cheers
[Nexus 7 Original Development] fridlack:
Flashed linaro boot.IMG over the latest f2fs rom and everything is working... Until now it looks faster

Thanks for your work and cheers!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
will be doing a testing build to see if the repo errors are fixed

https://review.carbonrom.org/#/c/2488/

im so hoping it will work
[Nexus 7 Original Development] lezzi:
Will you integrate your modified a69 kernel in the next builds?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
9/18/14 booted every one cheer

Nightlys are back on

Edit:

Hmm

in about tablet

Kernel version tells me

Unavailable

NVM
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
build 9/18/14 is up

Note: you need to wipe system manually if coming from a different ROM

sorry about that i was testing it so i did not want it to format system over and over

when i was testing.

every one should update, well I will vary soon.

It has been a long 10day wait ty for bearing with me.

sorry ext4 people

no build for you today but tomorrow yes
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Wow this is very enticing. :D can I just dirty flash this one? :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
You can but do make a backup
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Does this update have the modified M-kernel?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
O yes

But note I did not change the lp core speed

Do to some peoples nexus 7s can't handle it

I will make separate

Builds with the lp core oc up to 740
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Ohhh, I will try this build none the less.xD Thank you for quenching my ORFD (Obssessive Rom Flashing Disorder). xD

EDIT: Can I safely flash the oc 740 kernel above this one?@.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Sorry for the late reply

Yes you can
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
No worries master, all is well! :D Keep up the good work!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
F.Y.I. ART is working

but you need to give it some time to boot

5+ min
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Erik1805:
Very nice work. Running very smooth. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Oh goodie.:D The last time I tried art, I got lags when I install or delete an app. And I am not talking about stutters, it really lags a lot, in which only a reboot will fix it. Hopefully everything's fine nao.xD

EDIT: Tried art but it did not boot.:( It got stuck on the boot animation.:/
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Hmm looks like MX player dose not like ART

so far
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
It will boot give it time 5+min

you can always use adb logcat to see whats its doing
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
It booted now.:) But why did it took longer to boot up?@.@ The first time I tried art, it was just like 2mins or so.@.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Dont know
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
F.Y.I. if i find any thing that will help make this ROM better/faster

Its a guaranteed fact that i will add it to the next build
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Good. Great to have a master active dev.:D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Same here, just stuck on boot animation for a long long time. Gave it about 30 minutes but boot animation got boring lol. Downloaded and flashed twice just in case. Went back to 906 for now, and it booted right away. Bed time now...

But I will try again soon. Oh, and ART has always ran fantastic for me, so sure wish I knew why it is different for some people, on the same devices.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Well I did do an Ultra clean install
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Just did the dirty flash, but it took a lot more than five minutes to boot it up. Anyway, does ART really have some stutters here and there?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
On ART here and no stutters
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Hmm, probably my device?@.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Try a clean install next time

Have you tryed tweaking your kernel's settings
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Nah, just the smart dimmer and clock max at 1.3ghz.@.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Just a heads up: So I went and did an ultra clean flash (like erased all data dalvik and cache). Then proceeded to install the rom. When I try to put it on art, it will stay at the carbon room boot animation, even after an hour of waiting. Just want to let you know.:3 I guess I will stay at dalvik till this gets resolved.:3
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Hmm thats odd

i was able to get on art
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
I was also able to get on art, but that was when I dirty flashed. I heeded your advice and proceeded to do a clean install. And I cannot get it to art.:/ Been using the kernel that comes with it, and also the OC kernel, but still no dice.:/
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Dont onder stand

I did use adb logcat while it booted

My clean install was reformat to ext4 then back to f2fs

Data

System

Cache
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
What I did was format my system again to f2fs (even though it was already on f2fs). Then the usual wipe (wiped everything except internal storage). @.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
That is a little too much to ask of people who are just going from one build of Carbon to another, especially if its the same android version. People should use dirty flashing for the exact same rom. Right?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Yeah.xD But when I was on art (the one I dirty flashed) I got stutters, so I went to wipe my device and start over.@.@
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
True

Well im just telling them what i did
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
No worries, I'm just making a friendly comment. A real clean flash needs to have something done in the android system that affects the way it works with apps and how it works in general. It should only need to be done once per Android version, and of course if changing/formatting to different file systems. Google doesn't make major changes to system without changing the android version number, I don't even think they make minor ones without changing the android version number.

[MENTION=5501864]USBhost[/MENTION], have you heard any rumors or industry speculation if we will ever see Android L? Maybe it will bring better ART to grouper, which is my hopes. I'd love to see Carbon L F2FS with M-Kernel, lol...

EDIT: Haha, Carbon L, that sounds like a newly discovered chemical element with a relation to.... ummm carbon? lol
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Nop i have not but i dont have any worries we'll get Android L one way or another

Haha nice one i will so name this thread Carbon L

Edit: every one if you want to try the m-kernel lp core oc

[Nexus 7 Original Development] mdbowman:
I stumbled upon this thread today after starting to have slowness issues on my N7 running all the latest SlimRom builds. So glad I did. It really made a nice boost on this device. Thanks so much for your commitment to giving us up to date builds with the F2FS option. Very nice.

Build 9/19/14 is up

injoy
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
no build tonight

no change to the code
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Have you looked into the ART problem? I tried it again today, and it really did not boot.:/
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
No its a carbon problem most likely
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Last night I tried a dozen times and a bunch of different ways using both 918 and 919, but it just won't work. 0906 is the last build that boots on my device, which is OK with me (there are two newer builds I have not tried yet though, 907 and 908 I think). So, it must be broken carbon, but I thought that carbon was the hardest thing to break? LOL j/k

However, 906 runs great so what more can I ask for? Thanks USBHost :good:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
What

it wont boot .

or wont boot on art?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
No, not while I am using ART anyway, which is my default. And I refuse to go back to Dalvik. So I am perfectly happy on 906... Maybe next Saturday, when I have time I will try it again. Thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
as long as you're happy I'm happy

But 906 that build is so old!!!

I still don't understand how I was able to boot on ART

When every one cant Hmm??
[Nexus 7 Original Development] halrulez:
I couldn't use it either. Question though. I know you use multi Rom. Can you flash a ext4 Rom with it if you are f2fs full? Really wanted to try out that android L port
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
I hope ART gets fixed on the new builds though. I really want to try ART without stutters.:/
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
I hope art gets fixed for you guys

No build last night sorry

I completely fell asleep lol
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Tried the latest build and still no dice.:/ But I tried the build scorponox used and it was cool! :D But yeah, you said it yourself, it was an old build.:/
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Not old its beyond old lol
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Changes to the code cherrs!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Leonhan:
Upload it nao! :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Well I said the heck with it and decided to try dalvik just so I could flash the latest version. And we'll I guess ART isn't really all that great after all. When I first tried it in March I have to assume the ROM just worked better on it however Carbon runs fine using either one. I do see a few little hesitations here and there on Dalvik but its completely acceptable...

Sorry to be off topic, but this is big news. The Android L preview finally released for Grouper. Please spread the word through the forums if you can. Thanks

[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
looks like we will get android L for our grouper

Cheers
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Yeah, but I wonder if it really brings any improvements to our device? If it brings us a newer kernel, I can see it being worthwhile. Especially if we get a M-Kernel-L

LOL
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
No No

I got it now

ML-kernel = Massive Leverage kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
LMAO! Dude your a kernel naming God.

Lets just hope the kernel gets a new number from 69, because Massive Leverage Kernel 69 sounds like a geeks porno flick.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
haha lol
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
Read again my last post
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
no need for a new number

the new name is the new number
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SkOrPn:
True, good point... :good: but then again, when a new version comes out after that, what would it be named if there's no numbering?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Hmm your right

ok "Massive Leverage" is the kernel's name like on the thread

then the version will be ML-kernel 7O

no need for the 0, O looks cooler

you can change it in the build.prop

It will mess things up

With system

I don't know why

it worked just fine until now

Installing SuperSU is just about the first thing I normally do. Thanks for the warning. BTW how big an improvement is 4.4.3 ?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
It seems a little smoother

especially with ART

Also knowing you have the latest android version out there!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
I know that's one of the first things I do too

these are the problems I got with superSU

messed up system permissions

Made system read only and yes I made it r/w

Used up a good amount of ram 150mb+. That's strange?

Did some strange things to google services

broke busybox. Now that's vary strange!

Hi USBHost:

Newbie q. What do I need to format to update?

Can I just flash the new built+gapps in recovery, or that is not recommended?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
You can just dirty flash to update

But if you get issues do a clean install
[Nexus 7 Original Development] pablortega:
Great, thanks for the quick reply. I think I will stay on the 20140927 built to avoid problems.

Or do you think it is worth to update?

P.S. btw thanks for your work, I was about to dump my N7 in the trash with the crazy lag, battery issues and slow apps 1 week ago (I was using the offical ROM) Now is like having a new tablet.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
Well i think you should update because gcc 4.8 is faster than gcc 4.7 and there or a lot changes from then until now

Buts thats just me
[Nexus 7 Original Development] timberman4444:
i have that problem too in play store with the latest version
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:

Google play looks good

I did a clean install

no build tonight no change that will affect our N7
[Nexus 7 Original Development] USBhost:
I recommend every one if your upgrading to the latest build

do a clean flash because i changed GCC from 4.7 to 4 8

Is art properly working now? I just want to confirm.xD
