run_program("/sbin/mkfs.f2fs", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP"); => FORMATS SYSTEM

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system"); => MOUNTS SYSTEM

so we will format only once, and mount as many times as we like. i think system got formatted again after install. plz check
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
Yeah, it got formatted to ext4, but I used TWRP and put it back on f2fs before flashing it again. I missed a line, so going to try again.

EDIT:

I am going to give up, lol. I made the proper edits but it then hangs at the google logo afterwards. It runs fine before making the edits. Makes zero sense to me.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adomol:
The block image will always format system to ext4 because thats what it is encoded to do. The only ways I know right now to change this are to build the otapackage as file based instead of block based which is litterally just one option. Or to convert the block image after the fact to a /system folder which is what I have been doing... and its a pain.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
OK, that actually makes sense to me now. This explains why it isn't working after editing the files in question.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adomol:
Who? What? Where?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
Well it is working good for me. Tapatalk is working again too, which it wasn't on alpha 8 for me. Other then checking apps and making sure everything is updated and performing one reboot, I have not seen anything different yet. OH, except for one thing, I can't seem to get the battery percentage to stick.

Other then that it flashed without a hitch. Thanks adomol for fixing the updater-script and thanks to freak_97 for the build, and Metallice for the kernel :good:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] alwaysadeel:
yes , that block build thing is the culprit. will keep in mind for my builds. thnx :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adomol:
There are two checks you can make before you build the otapackage so that you can produce a file based rom instead of a block based rom...

1. In android_build/core word search for ota_from_target_files to see if it is coded there with the --block flag, which will usually be its own line in the script. Just delete the --block reference or the line containing it if that is the only thing there, usually with \ at the end.

OR... if the reference isn't there...

2. It will be found at android_build/tools/releasetools/ in the ota_from_target_files script. Search for:

elif o == "--block":
OPTIONS.block_based = True

And change the option to False. In SlimLP specifically these will be lines 1530 and 1531. So just edit line 1531.

Maybe it's all in my head, but I just updated my Nexus 7 2012 running SlimLP 5.0.1 F2FS to Google Play Services 6.5.99 (1642632-430) downloaded from here and a the N7 seems to be running a little better. Also after this update a couple apps that were having trouble authenticating with my Google account (CityMapper, Speed4cast and others) now work fine.

Floating Mode

Somehow Chrome Beta got stuck in floating mode. I can't find anywhere to toggle it back. How do I do that?

Also when I flash an update I get a GCF error and when it asks to select the account it won't ever accept it (just keeps reasking).
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Spitwista:
Converted to f2fs and it is smooth as slimroms should be.

Edit: The fix doesn't work. Every time I close the app and reopen it opens in floating mode. What gives?

Also getting "Could not sign in" when I try to readd my google account...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
long long click...just hit one the homebutton and choose chrome beta then in the recent apps screen. Like a normal app switch

I apologize if this seems redundant, but does the latest builds support all f2fs? I am currently on your all f2fs stock slim and eager to switch.

F2fs is the next thing on my list
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Reiven89:
Thanks, im so curious to try your rom will wait for f2fs support

Nice work [MENTION=5373714]freak_97[/MENTION]! Wondering if there is a place to see the details on the kernel you have with this rom?

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
It the stock slim kernel just built with sabermod 4.9
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adomol:
One more question, what exactly is sabermod? I've been looking around but the information I have come across seems a bit confusing.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Hai96:
Very nice rom and its so smooooth :)

Thanks for your work

I have a f2fs version of the latest build from your rom, do you allow me to post DL link here ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Yes you can post the download link?

My f2fs version will come tomorrow or probably Monday

Which kernel do you use ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Hai96:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Yes that's legolas' kernel... I will use m-kernel for my release but I have still problems with the kernel
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Spitwista:
Faux123 .25u works perfectly with your rom.

Edit:Been using F2FS since your first release with faux123

[Nexus 7 Android Development] ichigo_kurosaki:
having problems with the Alpha09.

i am having problems booting this alpha9 build. the first build i downloaded awas that "broken" which i unwittingly flashed over my allpha08 one..and then my rom won't boot up. just stays forever on that S boot animation taking forever. 2nd flash..i clean flashed the alpha9 build 9is this a full rom? or just an ota package? i did the factory reset on TWRP but on my clean flash attempt i flashed together all 4 zips-ROM, GApps, superSU, busybox. still..nothing happens. 3rd attempt..tried to flash rom only..still the same. any ideas? :(

EDIT: is alpha 9 a full rom? if not, what alpha build is a full rom that i must flash prior to flashing alpha 9?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] FlatEric0074:
Yes, this version is f2fs . runs here without problems in an all f2fs n7!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ichigo_kurosaki:
same here. even with the "fixed build" i get an error in recovery still related to the updater script. it flashes some things from build 9 alpha but then it screws the build 8. the rom won't boot up after that.:( any idea for the fix?:(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adomol:
Are you installing as a secondary rom?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tamanaco:
Any idea as to how much ROM (/system) storage is left after the Alpha 9 F2FS is installed? I'm currently using PA-GApps "Micro" (~167MB) on Alpha 8, but would like to use PA-GApps "Mini" (~213MB) on Alpha 9.

A bit off topic -- I use DiskInfo and Titanium to determine how much ROM space is left on my N7 2012. But... I'm starting to believe that the Used/Free storage space reported by either of these apps is not accurate for F2FS formatted partitions on Lollipop. The apps report different results. Is there a specific utility I should be using to determine the size of Used/Free storage of F2FS partitions on Lollipop.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] stevepwolf:
just got this device 2 days ago...

first thing i did was unlock root and flash f2fs slim. this thing is pretty chippy in f2fs.

thanks you devs! 1.5 days in, still running great.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] thelangosta:
I always see this with titanium on all devices. It's somehow reading much less free space than if you go and look in apps>running apps. I think it's the main reason for getting an "insufficient storage space" error while trying to back up apps.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tamanaco:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Apps->Running Apps does not report ROM (Static) storage... it reports RAM (Dynamic) storage of apps that are currently running. I'm looking for an accurate report of the amount of storage left in ROM (/system) after Alpha 9 is flashed to determine if there's enough space in the /system partition to install a specific size of GA-Apps package.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] thelangosta:
I think your right. Not enough coffee in my veins yet this morning. Technically I think RAM is considered static as there's only a fixed amount built into the device. There's probably some terminal command you can use to find out the info you are after. FWIW I used Banks minimal 5.0 gapps on two devices and they seem to leave some breathing room.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Dark Jedi:
Man this ROM is the fastest lolli I ever had on my nexus. Great work and can't wait to see what else you come up with
[Nexus 7 Android Development] alan081954:
Freak.......will we ever get the camera going? I'm running the 8 version and it works great,I would love to get the camera working though. Great work and kudos to you!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] luckyrumo:
[MENTION=321833]tamanaco[/MENTION] the command is

df

, but it isn't too accurate, usually free and used don't add up to the total size. To get the real used space, you could try something with

du

, but this can take a lot of time.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ichigo_kurosaki:
No. Primary. But yeah i am on multirom.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] aaplus12:
Excellent ROM. My nexus 7 is now almost as fast as my note 3. Just one request to the developer is that please include the camera app in future releases, i am sure there are many other requests regarding camera as well. I use camera for video calling on viber and hangouts.

Thanks for this excellent ROM.

Cheers
[Nexus 7 Android Development] käsebr0t:
I can't install alpha 9. It says "corrupt zip file". I tried downloading it with my pc and then copying it to my n7, but with the same result. I'm using TWRP 2.8.2.0.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] techlifeweb:
Just updated to 0.9 and so far it's great. One thing though, the fonts seem smaller or resolution seems changed or something like that. For example, Google+ has 2 columns instead of 1. Just curious if that's adjustable in any way? I've used the last several builds and never tried adjusting anything.

Thanks.

The camera not working is a common problem with 5.0 custom roms or just with this rom? Hope will be fixed. Thanks for your work!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] sTl2yk3l2:
Is anyone else having lag problems with the f2fs version? Is good from a clean install, then after a day my device gets so laggy it is almost unusable. Waking from screen off is bad, auto rotate almost freezes my tablet. I'm not sure what the deal is. I clean installed this multiple times with the same results. Like I said before this happens on stock lp also. Anyone having issues like this?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] stanley321:
I have some lag problem too.

Sometimes the screen will light up but nothing showed up it is all black with nothing on it, then I will have to wait close to a minute for anything to appear.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Dark Jedi:
Haven't noticed any lag like that but games do seem to lag on me. Other than that the ROM been spot on
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Amisuta:
Does a reboot fix it? I have that same thing, but a reboot makes all fine and dandy.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] frgo:
It does but what's the point? You have to reboot every day to run things smoothly and that's useless.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] geekprateek:
No lags here at all.

But there are two major bugs:

1. Something weird with sound settings, it causes random reboot if you low the volume and try to hit the ringer to go to vibrate mode.

2. Google play services shows authentication errors at times and play store goes to sleep state, hereby pausing downloading queue of apps.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tamanaco:
Similar experience here with Alpha 9. Restarting and powering off also take a long time. It's very erratic ... it works fine and then it slows down to a crawl... then if you wait a little while the performance returns. As someone else mentions, Google Play Services has issues authenticating and batch downloading updates via the Play Store takes a long time.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] amangupta53:

Running 0.9. Most issue for me now is wlan_rx_wake locks keeping the tablet awake all the time. Not sure how to fix that one.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] barakisbrown:
Have you check which application is causing this lock? If it is an application then you just kill it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] techlifeweb:
Yeah I'm trying to figure that out. Seems like it's the OS.

i really can't flash the build 9 of this rom no matter how many times i try i get the same error something about the updater binary. screenshot provided below.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
I don't think he ever answered my question, but he has been busy with his schooling so I understand. I wonder if its his own chosen optimization cherry picks, or if he's using optimizations lesser known? Where did the term "Optipop" come from?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Salamin1:
Can we dirty flash this over build 8?

Thanks for your work!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] dareino:
Ya I revived the thread right after Freak posted the latest ROM hoping to catch him. Oh well.

I did also google optipop and the OptiRom is no doubt the source. Im curious how it competes w/JustArchi. I mean this rom is blazing fast so no complaints here but as you know USBHOST had JustArchi w/his CarbonRom and that was an awesome rom!

I dirty flash and all seems fine...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] lionelhuts:
I started at 0.6 and dirty flashed 0.8, 0.9, and 0.91. F2FS version.

When is Slim going to add the dpi setting for the nav bar ? only thing i'm missing.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] treesurf:
How do you adjust dpi, and what is the original stock setting?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] EverDawn4:
You can adjust the dpi in the build.prop file in /system using a root file manager. Find the line "#set default lcd density to TVDPI" and change the number 183 to 213(stock). Then, reboot the tablet. :D

Install the mini gaps before you install the full ones (no need to reboot in between).The full gaps don't appear to be that full so the mini gaps puts the basics there then you can either install other apps from the play store or just flash the full gaps.

AudioFX looks ok for me. Maybe try dirty flashing again.

Flash ROM and it appears to be going EXT4

I am currently running an F2FS ROM sucessfully and when I flash this ROM 091 Beta that I downloaded for page 63, F2FS version, It comes up with the data decryption error. When I go back to peform a reset its now trying to go EXT4 and I dont know where its getting the info to do that if I got an F2FS ROM. I do a nan-restore and it brings up my old ROM and knows to re-format that partitions to F2FS. Where am I going wrong? I know its working for other people so I have to be missing something, any help would be appreciated.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] jollyrogue:
Installed and now testing now but was having trouble installing until I found out that it isn't compatible with twrp 2.7.0.0. Maybe mention that it's recommended to update to 2.8.2.0 and that f2fs is already supported in the recovery without modification.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pettigrew95:
So I did that and it works now, but, I am also installing the SuperSU Beta and the BusyBox from within TWRP but when I boot into the OS I do not see SuperSU in my apps and busybox says there is a problem and cannot install. Any ideas? Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Darrian:
I assume you are using twrp 2.8.2. Make sure you are flashing supersu 2.37 or higher (2.4 is the latest stable). I also recommend the pa micro gapps, but if you have that working I guess you don't need to fix it.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pettigrew95:
Do I flash the SuperSU zip first and then BusyBox zip? Where can I get the latest SuperSU zip to flash in recovery? Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Darrian:
http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

I don't think it matters which order you flash it, if you flash them together, because the system isn't booted at that point; it's still in recovery. I never flash busybox, though; if I need it I just install the app in the play store and then install busybox from the app. However, a good test would probably be to flash supersu first, boot it, see if supersu shows up in your apps list, and then go back into recovery and do busybox.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] halrulez:
I keep getting updater script errors. I have downloaded this 3 times now. Sad :o
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pettigrew95:
I'm flashing the newest SuperSU but then when I get into the OS and go to my apps I still don't see SuperSU in there.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Darrian:
Try wiping system and only flashing the rom and supersu. When you boot you won't have gapps, but if you see supersu it may indicate there is a problem with your gapps package that somehow messes up supersu. You can always go back and flash gapps again.
