Manual wipe of system and flash ROM and gapps should be good.

Gonna Give It a Try

Any suggestions on which gapps to use?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
I personally use Slim's gapps. It is a SlimRom after all. I guess it all depends if you want TRDS gapps.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] rotorbudd:
Thanks for the quick reply.

Flashing your ROM now.

I'll let you know how it goes after I've used it for a day or two. :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DroidIt!:
Heya Robbie. Just wanted to let ya know, I loaded up your 08/15 build and so far seems to be the best yet for both smoothness and battery. Absolutely no lag anywhere and the battery seems to be stretching out the best of any build so far. I haven't given it a complete test yet, today will be the first full day off a fresh charge, but just awesome so far. I'm a fan :)

Oopse. Meant to post this in hammerhead, still the same opinion though for the flo too ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] bbernardini:
I've always run the regular Slim with Elemental kernel. Can any of you with similar experience speak to how this build/kernel runs in comparison?

Toolchains

I don't know much about the difference between toolchains and I was wondering how Slim built with sabermod would differ from stock Slim, which I'm guessing is build with the Linaro toolchain? Is one better for CPU/GPU intensive tasks? Also I've been seeing stuff around the Nexus forums about JustArchi optimaztions? Is this related? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but I searched around and couldn't really find anything with a clear set of pros and cons. Or maybe it's just personal preferences, not sure.

Hey [MENTION=4911350]RobbieL811[/MENTION] :) How's it looking for one of your home brewed flo builds....your's always were my favorite so that's why I ask. Hope all has been good :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] clintb:
I don't know the home brewed flo builds to which you're referring, but I browsed his builds and found the latest LP one based on 5.0.2 and it's running a-freaking-mazing.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
I think he is referring to my Sabermod builds that I did throughout KK. I maintained a Sabermod build of Slim.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] clintb:
Ah, ok. I don't know if your SlimLP builds are done with SaberMod or not, but I like it. Fast, stable, everything works correctly. Good stuff!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
You are not having wifi issues on the L builds?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] nokiagye:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] clintb:
No issues that I've seen. Granted, I'm not using the Nexus 7 for hours on end everyday, so the time exposure is quite limited. Still, no problems seen.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] :
Hey guys, another happy user here. Fast and stable.

Question, what kernel is everyone using, stock?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
Thanks bud. I guess I can't speak for EVERYONE, but I think that most people are probably using my stock kernel. I put a lot of work into it. Good kernel. Even other ROMs using it as their kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] :
Thanks for the answer, not complaining just asking.

Thanks for all your hard work.[emoji106]

Does anyone still have the rom so i can download it the original download link and this link does not work anymore
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
It's designed to hopefully be faster/smoother w/ no give up of battery life. I have done away w/ qualcomm's mpdecision & thermal & replaced it w/ Showp's open source mpdecision & thermal from Bricked kernel. Also have added some features that I like & such.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] bbernardini:
Thanks for the response. I'll give it a shot!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] idCyber:
Can't wait for the download to finish and try your ROM . Thanks for sharing it !

Edit: working great, also I love the performance of it's kernel .

Edit2: how can I make my tablet reduce clock speed when it gets too hot (thermal throttling)? For example I've used PerfMon to monitor each cores frequency and all of them stay at 1.5GHz, sometimes to 1.7GHz and rarely one of them drops to 1.0GHz from a one second . I've tested Asphalt 8 and the tablet gets so hot that it's almost difficult to be held and touch the screen. I've seen this happening on other ROMs and kernels.

The CPU frequency doesn't go down when the tablet burns to reduce the temperature at the cost of performance. I know that maybe this does not benefit most people but I would like to know of this is possible.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DroidIt!:
Heya Robbie. Just to report in, been using your 08/13 build for a week now and rock solid. Scrolls though long lists with no lags, switching from portrait to landscape is smooth, Spectral Souls runs without a glitch, and no FC's anywhere in a week. Really solid all around and looking forward to whatever you do next ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
I will have to take a look when I get back home. From what I remember, my tablet was throttling just fine. I just added Show's thermal driver not too long ago. I hope there is not a problem. Is anybody else's device not thermal throttling???

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] bikeryder007:
Hey Robbie,

I have been running your build now on my flo to match the one I am running on hammerhead. Great job on both. Super quick and smooth, and no issues at all with the rom itself. One thing I wanted to point out is that using k control (show p's app) under the thermal section on flo, it says that there is no thermal throttle applied. I don't know if it is just a miscue or not with the app or something you need to look into, but I just wanted to let you know. That said, I have no issues with the device or any heat issues either.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
I am having some issues w/ the thermal driver. I am trying to figure it out now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
I am building a new build right now which hopefully has the thermal problem fixed. Do you think that you have just a minute to help me w/ something?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] bikeryder007:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] RobbieL811:
I only have 1 flo thread. I will upload a different build to try. Its weird. Thermal throttle doesn't show up in kcontrol, but if you enable throttling in trickster, it works fine & shows up in Kcontrol. Idk what's going on. On builds older than today, if you enable throttling in trickster & let go into deep sleep, device will reboot. I fixed that in the newest build, I just haven't fixed being able to enable it in Kcontrol.

Ok DroidIT and anyone else that uses this. Lol. I feel like it's just me and you. I have completely fixed the thermal driver problem. It looks like the thermal driver is getting loaded properly on boot now every time. No heat issues for me so far and no weird reboots or SOD's. Working as it should. Now tablet fully relies on Showp's thermal driver to control temperature. Also, some other users had messaged me about the thermal portion in Kcontrol not working correctly. Works correctly now. I just pushed the build to the server that I use. Here is the link below. Let me know if any of you run into problems w/ the thermal driver. Mess around w/ it and test it out for me. Thanks.

When I was in the armoured corps, I would often reflect on how ****ty we had it with all the rain and snow and dust and mud, and how easy the remfs had it and the zoomies, and nearly everyone else.

Then I would look over at the grunts, realize they had it worse than even I did, and smile :laugh:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] TheIronMaiden:
Haha, infantry life can suck, but we usually tried to make our lives easier, and safer when we were overseas. We stole a lot of hescos (brand name of a sandwall, 7ft tall 4ft wide approx) and made our own hooch, complete with wood flooring , and a generator with an exhaust to the outside for electricity. A roof that was lined with plastic and tarps to make it as waterproof as possible, with two exits. Our vehicle positions were pretty covered too. But our position sucked because our Battalion Commander thought it would be wise to settle on the valley floor rather than a more elevated position. If you'd watch the Sebastian Junger documentary "Restrepo" the Cpt would mention us and pondered why we got attacked so much, then he ate his words and found out first hand hahaha (off topic, sorry)

I use my Flo mostly for 3d gaming and reading. What scheduler is best from noop, cfq, sio? I usually used row as I saw it is very popular but since it's missing from this kernel, what do you guys think is the next best thing?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DroidIt!:
You know, over my years of using different Android devices, I'm not sure there really is a difference. I've never been able to tell one anyways. I personally think really it's just clock speed and undervolt are the 2 biggies. Somebody who games more could probably give some more input, still mostly use mine to read, but when I do game, fairly heavy games, Asphalt 8, the FF's, Spectral Souls, etc. I've never noticed a difference.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Lazy79:
I guess it's deadline if it's available. However, I'm also thinking you won't notice any huge difference.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] idCyber:
Last question :D

In TricksterMod I have Temperature Throttle OFF .. should I put it ON ? Dunno if I disabled by missclick it or not.

Edit: I left it ON for now
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] DroidIt!:
I always leave thermal throttle on...I also use kcontrol though. I adjust the values so that when thermal throttle does kick in it's not quite so harsh. One thing I have noticed when gaming, the default thermal values are aggressive, those HAVE slowed down my games before.

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

Oh and if you can swing it, I think the app is $5, but I'd use kcontrol if possible anyways. Before Robbie started making any kernel changes, the slim kernel was already loosely based off of show-p's bricked kernel and show is the author of kcontrol. I'm 90% sure Robbie has now injected show's thermal controls into the kernel. I haven't used trickster in quite awhile, but I don't believe you'll find an app to better control the slim kernel given everything I said above. For gaming, I've found the stock 1.5 ghz max works fine, then in kcontrol I also leave governor at ondemand. Only things I change for gaming are thermal throttle and uv. For thermal throttle, my max is 1.5 so I go 2 steps below that for low limit frequency (1,2) and then 2 steps below that for mid and then 2 more for high limit frequency so it doesn't throttle so much and that's what's worked good for me. Then for voltage control I just hit the uv all twice and done. Hope all that helps. ;)

---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ----------

Oh...and one more thing :angel: Only other thing I do for gaming is if I know I'm going to be on battery for awhile and I have some time on my hands, I turn off wifi before I start gaming so I can maximize my battery life...more gaming...that's everything I think :D
