After a few unsuccesful atempts to switch to a F2FS rom (not this one), I just had to give it one more try.

I have run into a few known issues like being stuck into "Checking connection" - solved with choosing a different MINIMAL Gapps package.

Another issue, more critical from a non-experienced user point of view, is that after you swith the partions to F2S2 in TWRP, you find yourself with no zip files to flash on internal storage. I had to pause the flashing process and do some readings on this issue (you kinda feel like a fool when you have this problem). Found the solution, using TWRP function to let the device to be accesed from the computer...but for some unknown reason my lovely Windows 8.1 doesn't recognize the device as N7 so it can communicate properly. That was pretty odd because Wug NRT was working properly and I knew I have all the drivers installed. I had to read some more and finnaly found how to make my laptop to recognise the device as N7, then I was able to copy the flashable rom and minimal gapps to device. After that everything went smoothly as it should.

So if you want to give this rom a try and use F2S2, please make sure that your laptop recognise your device as N7 (give it a try in TWRP before swithing to F2S2 !!!) and don't forget to use minimal gapps at the begining.

One big cons. for this rom is the camera problem, you just can't use Skype or any other app that use video feed from camera.

In terms of performance everything is very nice but the lack of camera support can be a "no go" for some of us. I hope that somehow it will be addreses and resolved because I've read that other LP based roms have this missing camera support.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] joeshmoe666:
First thanks for the rom. Much appreciated. As far as wanted features go, rro layers, clear all recents button, ability to change dpi, quicksettings tile for reboot/recovery, dpi changer for navbar and xposed compatibility. And by all means, f2fs. Thanks dude.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] freak4all:
hi,

I've used your rom and I'am very happy whith this...thanks.

there is still one problem whith the kodi app. I've got no sound from the internal speaker while playing a video from nas or whatching tv. if i plugged in my headphones all is fine, but no internal speaker sound.

anyone use kodi whith optipop and has a sollution?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] freak4all:
i solved my problem by myself after searching the internet. i changed the usb connector before and that was the problem. it was not rom related that i had no speakersound.

my n7 thinks my headphones are plugged in all the time.

the app sound about help me to solve this!

good and fast rom so far!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] chall32:
Is this ROM dead?

If so, any recommendations on a replacement ROM? Something LP that includes stagefright fixes would be good....
[Nexus 7 Android Development] wrkerr:
I suspect not, since the OP announced less than a month ago that he was moving away from OptiPop and wanted suggestions for a new name, and feature requests. Can't be sure though... things have been pretty quiet.

I certainly hope it's not dead. I love this ROM.

For a name recommendation, I'd say something like "Don't Give Up on Old N7 Yet!" /s

you receive MMS on your tablet?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] chall32:
No, but I do watch more media on my tab than I do on my phone..... MP4's included.

Quick run of the stagefright test tool ( https://blog.zimperium.com/stagefright-vulnerability-details-stagefright-detector-tool-released/ ) and hey presto.

Latest super user app in playstore has an error updating the binary. Is there anyone who has a working one:)?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] carandcar:
I had to enable root in Developer Options. Then I downloaded SuperSu and updated the binary.

Repair your partitions then reflash the rom. Make sure your twrp is not an oldie.

Under the advance swipe option, you can repair your partitions before flashing the rom again

[Nexus 7 Android Development] JohnBonchie:
well currently i totally wiped everything of my internal storage so I have no roms or anything. how can i put my files back into my nexus?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
By using MTP or OTG and TWRP's built in file manager. You should learn this simple stuff before wiping or flashing things.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] JohnBonchie:
i know all this actually but it wasn't working with my laptop for some reason. anyways, i managed to install the rom etc but right now i can't boot it up. it's now telling me "to start andoid, enter your passsword" if happened only after i flash the formatpartiton.zip from this. [RECOVERY][All-F2FS] TWRP-2.7.0.0 with All-F2FS support [11/03/14].

I've never ecrypted my nexus or whatsoever. i tried formatting all internal storage etc but still it comes back. any workaround?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adomol:
Sounds like you need to format data still... Did you FORMAT and type in YES to confirm?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] JohnBonchie:
Yes of course. Didn't work either. But i manage to get everything to work now. I just flashed the m kernel again:) thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Install the latest twrp. There you don't have to flash a f2fs.zip to format to f2fs
[Nexus 7 Android Development] litemintx:
"to start andoid, enter your passsword"

>> Try this

1. install rom (.zip)

2. reboot recovery

3. install gapps

4. reboot recovery

5. install SuperSU.zip

6. reboot to system

7. :good:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] JohnBonchie:
Was already on the latest twrp before flashing:) thanks anyway guys, i already got it fixed through my own method which was the flashing of the kernel again:) but thank you!

[MENTION=5373714]freak_97[/MENTION] not sure if it has been mentioned before, but you might want to re-add calendar provider of the priv-app folder. Without this one you cannot sync your calendars.

Otherwise, this LP ROM is the fastest available for grouper imo
[Nexus 7 Android Development] JohnBonchie:

Anyone has any issue downloading anything from the internet with SlimLP?

When i tried download, it tells me unsuccessful. Tried with different browsers and all failed. Dolphin browser tells me that storage full when I still have 26GB of space. So i tried deleting data for download manager and still failed.

Now, i tried deleting the Download folder from my storage, and guess what, i can't delete the file. I can't even change it's permission using root explorer and it doesn't allow me as well. Any help guys:(

Does anyone know why screen cast does not work? Anybody has a solution?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] chall32:
Trying these low memory optimisations from Galaxy Nexus on this ROM: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/30daaeaf3b893987efe3d9a03736cc86682356b9

Certainly things feel smoother. Chrome browser loads nice and fast now :thumbup:

Just add:

ro.config.low_ram=true

persist.sys.force_highendgfx=true

dalvik.vm.jit.codecachesize=0

config.disable_atlas=true

ro.config.max_starting_bg=8

ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit=16

to /system/build.prop and reboot.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TabletConnect:
Since making those changes, have you seen improvement? Any issues? Thx.

He must be hunkered down , rebasing...

[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
I'm fine guys and I won't stop the support for the nexus 7 :)

But ATM I'm a little bit tired to build Android and I think the important features are include in the ROM.

I'm using as my only Android device ATM the nexus 6 with the m preview. And I really like the experience. It's smooth, has good battery life and some cool things like battery percentages and customisable quick settings .

With the great base of Android marshmallow we can start a new project based on aosp.

In the last time I worked a lot to be able to buy the two new nexus phones and in my free time I started to play a little bit with chromium os. If anybody has a Chromebook he/she can recommend feel free to send me a private message.

I don't know if I should get the acer c720p, c740 or the Toshiba Chromebook 2

Hi,

I am very thankful for all the work you've done here! I have just one little idea that might interested you. My phone ROM developer just added these two changes into his rom and it made a huge difference.

- Enabled kCollectorTypeHSpaceCompact for ART

+- Changed malloc implementation to dlmalloc

Maybe that your rom might benefit from this as well! :) here is a link for the commit https://github.com/ArchiDroid/ArchiDroid/commit/1e3fc84e0c75f49ac2474016f1799afea0165892

Good luck in anything you decide to do!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
It was a link to the changelog but I found the real commits .

I will download the Android source over night.

Maybe you will see a nearly stock build tomorrow just with rro support, customisable quick settings, battery percentages and build optimizations.

Don't kill me if I don't release anything ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] limaunion:
I've been testing those settings for the last 12hs and am seeing a huge improvement in the overall response time of my tablet; thanks for that!

New Rom!!!

This is a new AOSP based custom ROM called Twisted.

It has all the features optipop had and is as fast as optipop if not faster :D

F2fs support for data and cache.

Please do a clean flash!!!

I´m looking forward to Android marshmallow and i´m hopefully able to provide a m build as soon as possible :)

Please let me know what to you think about the ROM

[Nexus 7 Android Development] flauchhaus:
Thank you very much for this rom!

Using slim gapps zero, mkernel, cache and data formatted to F2FS and builtin AdAway makes my Nexus 7 usable again.

I'm not a friend of the font and Chrome still can cause lags but it sure is better than stock.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hokiealumnus:
The font can be flashed back to stock (see post # 2). I'd have gone insane if I couldn't change that (huge thanks to the devs for thinking to include it); the included font is too twisted for me. Loving everything else though!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] wrkerr:
Firefox is much smoother than Chrome on mine.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hokiealumnus:
Chrome is just too much for this "old" device. I use Dolphin without issue, FWIW.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shawnbrennan55:
Opera runs fairly well on Grouper as well and it syncs across devices and platforms (Windows, Android, and Linux) as good or better than Chrome and Firefox.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] TabletConnect:
I downloaded this so let's see as my N7 kept lagging with Otipop. Reverted back to ext-4 to see if it helps because the other one was worst.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Ophidian_DarkCore:
Well.... results?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] limaunion:
I'm on Optipop right now, just to double check, do I need to perform a complete factory reset in order to upgrade to Twisted? a dalvik-cache wipe is not enough?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] wrkerr:
Correct. I wiped system, data, dalvik cache, and cache. Data and cache to f2fs.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] adrman:
It has definitely sped the old girl up a bit. I'm not seeing the cumulative lag build up so far either.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sjancura:
I thought Optipop was the best until Twisted. My N7 has never been faster!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] limaunion:
Upgraded today with a factory flash, everything went fine, it's really nice its UI, fonts too. There was only a glitch, I had to re-install all my apps from the play store, so I enqued a lot of apps and in some moments the wifi transfer got completely stuck, had to re-enable the wifi adapter in order to restore my Internet connection. This happened many times till I finished installing everything. After that no other wifi problem came up so far. Maybe the wifi adapter was completely ovearloaded (?). Just my .02 cents. Many thanks to the devs for your efforts with this great rom.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TabletConnect:
It is faster but I still think a little slower than when it was on kit Kat. Moot point since I will not downgrade. Definitely better. No issues so far.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] aquavalanche:
after using this ROM for a day, this is what I experienced.

smooth and snappy UI, better than my previous ROM (purity) using M-kernel.

better performance when using Chrome - I'd still use Firefox though

great job dev! I am currently using this ROM as my daily driver
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jpmccarthy:
Giving this a whirl. One thing, in twisted apps, selecting Viper causes settings to crash. Anyone else?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] limaunion:
After using this ROM for a couple of days, I find it much slower after resuming from deep sleep compared to what I was using before:

Optipop + this tuning: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62287719&postcount=1584

AFAIK Twister already does include those settings, right?

I'll see what to do in the next days, if I go back to Optipop. The UI is really nice but this lag is really annoying.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] wrkerr:
I think I agree. This latest release seems to be a step backward in terms of performance.

This is still better than stock, but OptiPop was great.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] limaunion:
Those setting were already included in the last ROM uploaded, I verified that yesterday.

The only setting that's not there is 'dalvik.vm.jit.codecachesize=0', don't know if it can make any difference.

If there's anyone from the dev team reading this, it would be great to know if they're experiencing the same behavior.

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] wrkerr:
I'm finding myself having to reboot more often, because sometimes waking from sleep either doesn't work, or takes forever, or when it does wake the UI lags pretty terribly. After a reboot it's always snappy again. I'm hoping for an update soon. If not I'll probably downgrade to OptiPop soon.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] BL4CK_92:

Still very disrespectful the developer to post links or praise another ROM in his thread. #truth
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ABQNM:
I've just installed this on my 2012 today even though SlimKat had been performing decently. I went with f2fs on system, data and cache and performance is much better than any other lollipop build I have used.

The only thing is that when I went to go add a restricted account to the tablet so that my nephew can use it, I noticed that there doesn't seem to be any way to access this. Were restricted profiles (or profiles entirely) removed from this build? Or is it something I'm missing, maybe?

Other than no restricted profiles, it's fantastic. Thanks for this ROM!

Edit: noticed a feature that doesn't seem to work. In Twisted Tweaks/Notifications/Advanced Sound Options, setting the volume keys to always control the media volume stream doesn't work. Even after toggling and rebooting, the volume keys still adjust alert volume.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jpmccarthy:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
First release of Twisted AOSP based on Android 6.0 marshmellow.

Download

Gapps

It´s compiled with the latest sabermod 5.2, has built optimiations like -O3, strict and graphite and includes many bug fixes from the aosp master branch.

The only custom feature we add so far is a night mode (under display setiings) and you can hold the recent button long to swtich to the last app you used.

The rom is prerooted and please don´t care about the twisted tweaks and apps entries. They are place holder until we add our features back to the rom.

You can´t use it with f2fs yet. It´s only working with data and cache formatted to ext4.

First the devices is a little bit slow but I noticed that it gets better after about 5 Minutes.

Big thanks to [MENTION=3326402]dmitrygr[/MENTION] , [MENTION=4725374]Motorhead1991[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] without their awesome work this rom wouldn´t be possible.
