I installed Google now launcher first. I've held down volume down and and power. Gone into fastboot and tried to get into recovery from there. Just hangs on the Google.

And the ROM was fast as hell. Just wanted to get rid of nova. Guess I'm going to have to remember how to fastboot recovery
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
1. restart the device

2. Hold down the volume down button

3. Navigate to recovery mode ( click the volume down button twice

4. You are in the recovery menu
[Nexus 7 Android Development] crzycrkr:
As I said, I've tried that. It just hangs permanently on the Google with the unlocked lock screen.

I don't have any problems with gel and nova. Make a backup and try it again
[Nexus 7 Android Development] crzycrkr:
I installed another third party launcher. GEL still wasn't showing when I hit the home button. Restarted, still not showing. Checked the Home in settings. After hitting the home button about 50 times and a few restarts it finally showed up. Odd, but it's working now. In not going to attempt to remove nova.

Really speedy ROM. Fastest I've ever seen this thing go

Did you install google search first and then installed gel?

Or did you install gel and than google search?

Only the first way worked for me .

[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
It only matters if performance and battery means anything to you. As thousands upon thousands have said this year, it is the single most important of all modifications that can be done to this device. The 2012 N7 has crappy NAND, and thus we MUST use a filing system designed specifically for NAND in order for it to feel like a somewhat modern device. Otherwise you will NEVER know what it was supposed to feel like to begin with.

I am lazy also, but I can't stand and refuse to put up with my device also being lazy... If you truly are lazy then why wait for your device to respond to your commands?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Darrian:
Yes. Although I did not try the the non-f2fs build, I tried the unofficial CM12 and it was so slow it was unusable, and f2fs flies. If you flash it make sure you you back up any files you want to keep on your internal storage before you convert your partitions to f2fs.

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

For people having trouble flashing supersu, are you manually converting system, data and cache to f2fs first? I initially didn't do all three, and not only wouldn't it flash, but I got stuck in a boot loop.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tele_jas:
I cannot get this ROM to install......I can get 2 other Lollipop ROMs to install, but not this one and I'd rather have a Slim based ROM. I've tried multiple downloads too.

Everything seems to flash fine, using TWRP 2.8.0.1, but it hangs at the "Google" splash screen. I left it there for about 75 minutes earlier (went to lunch) and it never booted. I've attached a pic of my fastboot info too.

Any suggestions?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] KRHairston:
Thanks this link worked...Thought I was going to have to re-install apps without Titanium Backup
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BlueKnightedDragon:
Did you wipe your system, cache and data partitions and convert them to f2fs (if your installing that version) ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] tele_jas:
Wipe System = Check

Wipe Cashe = Check

Wipe Data = Check

Convert to F2FS = Noooooo

I'm mainly a phone flasher and thought that the F2FS was something the ROM did as it was flashing. That would explain why the other F2FS ROMs didn't work either ;)

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BlueKnightedDragon:
You're welcome. Just make sure to wipe everything and use the repair/change option in twrp to convert each partition to F2FS one at a time And after you flash the rom flash gapps (I recommend using pa gapps) and SuperSU.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] treesurf:
It's a bug on multiple devices, from what I understand.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] halrulez:
There is an f2fs converter in the play store. Grab it and convert takes a couple min but we'll worth it. F2fs has made this tablet worthy for a couple more years. Killed my N10 screen and don't feel like dishing out over 100 for a new one. I am going to hook it up to a 24inch touch screen and install it where the microwave cabinet is. Off point sorry. But yes f2fs is worth it.

[MENTION=4978109]tele_jas[/MENTION], converting to F2FS is really worth it, but make sure to BACKUP EVERYTHING to your PC or OTG storage before! Unlike a normal factory reset, this will wipe your internal storage (/sdcard), too.

flashing a new update?

i just want to clarify things. This is my first try of a SlimROM (i am using this SlimLP..just flashed earlier this morning.. now the rom on the post was i think the alpha6..i didn't immediately ntice that there's a much more newer alpha 8 on the last page of this thread so i downloaded it, went to check instructions in OP and it said, UPDATE:

wipe system, flash rom, flash GApps. so with that being said, i can't dirty flash or flash over the alpha6?

EDIT: with a quick thinking i realized. this rom is still on the alpha stage so system must be wiped prior to flashing an alpha update to avoid complications to anything that has been changed.:D sorry for the noobish question.:D
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
My Nexus 7 is running a lot faster than it did on stock Lollipop, thank you so much. I installed the F2FS and am downloading Alpha 8 now :o
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pjcanales:
When I click on f2fs its the came name for both file as if I click on ext4 or has the f2fs hasn't been uploaded yet?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
I think they both have the same name, as I downloaded and installed the first one onto my N7 using F2FS and I'm having no issues
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pjcanales:
OK thank you
[Nexus 7 Android Development] miqz:
sory i still confused

i want to migrate from ext4 to f2fs..and i follow this steps, but i can't find f2fs option on latest twrp (2.8.2.0)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
You have to go into wipe -> advanced wipe -> select one at a time and then repair or change file system -> then change file system -> select F2FS
[Nexus 7 Android Development] miqz:
still not understand :(

check dalvik-> wipe

and check system -> but i can't find any f2fs option on this step

do i need to install f2fs rom first?

or do i need to wipe internal storage first?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pjcanales:
Hello I downloaded the android l gapps once I click on link pick second one which I believe was full version but there no playstore or am I missing something?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
You don't do this with dalvik, only system, cache and data
[Nexus 7 Android Development] miqz:
still can't find f2fs option

do i need wipe internal storage first?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
Are you tapping repair or change file system? Tell me exactly what steps you are doing
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shilayo:
Not with dalvik , it s just (one at time) system,cache and data, wipe then just up of the button swipe you will see repair/ change in a grey box, it s there click and will see the options
[Nexus 7 Android Development] miqz:
go to wipe -> advance wipe -> wipe system, data and cache

and when i'm back to wipe -> advance wipe -> i checked system

at this step i didn't find any repair or change file system option
[Nexus 7 Android Development] 1haumann1:
keep calm and have a Nexus :D
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
I didn't wipe first, maybe that is the issue. Maybe try powering off and going back into then trying without wiping
[Nexus 7 Android Development] miqz:
ahhhh maybe because old twrp theme

i must delete that suck theme first

finally i got the repair or change file system button

that's because i use old theme from twrp 2.5.x

:(

thanks guys
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
That my help, I didn't even know there were twrp themes to begin with so obviously I had mine stock :P
[Nexus 7 Android Development] miqz:
lol right

now i got errror when change data to f2fs

and do i need to change my internal storage to f2fs?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
No internal storage doesn't need to be changed, though I've never got an error and wouldn't know how to fix that sorry
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BlueKnightedDragon:
Did you wipe the partitions before trying to change them?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] kayoma:
USB-OTG doesn't work.

Neither USB hub (with plugged in keyboard and mouse) nor separate. I think that either voltage thing or some slimkat bug.

Hope that will be fixed.

Edit: Changed cable and it worked. Strange. On 5.0 stock it worked like a charm with both cables.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BlueKnightedDragon:

I obviously have no idea what I'm doing??

I have downloaded the F2FS compatible TWRP 2.7.0.0 and followed the instructions to the "T".... And cannot get any F2FS ROM's to flash.

Here's what I'm doing (following instructions)

1) Copy my F2FS ROM and GAPPS to my N7

2) Copy FormatPartitions.zip to N7

3) I've already flashed the TWRP recovery, so I don't need to flash in bootloader

4) Flash "FormatPartitions.zio

5) reboot recovery (I get a message "No OS installed, continue"? and another one to install SuperSU)

6) Flash ROM.

******FAILED******

I can't even get to the next steps....If I do, I'm stuck at the "Google" splash screen in a bootloop.

(rest of the steps)

7) Flash GAPPS

8) Wipe menue > Format Data

9) Reboot (I get a message to install SuperSU)

10) Done

What am I doing wrong?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pezza10:
I would suggest manually formatting the partitions

You have to go into wipe -> advanced wipe -> select one at a time and then repair or change file system -> then change file system -> select F2FS

Do that for system, cache and data
[Nexus 7 Android Development] BlueKnightedDragon:
Don't use format partition zip. Change format on your own by wiping data system and cache partitions and format them your self using the repair option and change each to f2fs one at a time and you might need newer twrp first

Confused about the steps

In OP,

Clean Flash

Wipe syste, data, cache, dalvik cache

Flash the rom

Flash Slim gapps or L Gapps

Reboot

Now i had a question, to make the f2fs file system, when do i have to make the partition? Should i do it after wipe and before flashing the rom? Or just flashing the rom does the job? Thanks in advance. :)

Formatting replaces wiping. Remember to back up everything before!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] amangupta53:
Animations are way too fast

I've just installed the ROM and it booted up on first try (F2FS ver 0.8). I was earlier on stock L rom with a fresh install. It didn't lag or anything but my previous KK setup used to lag like hell so I figured to give f2fs a try for a functioning device in the long run.

The only issue I have currently is the speed of animations. They are way too fast - and there's no option to switch to slower animations (already on 0.25x in dev settings).

Please try to adjust the animation speeds in the upcoming builds to match the stock speeds or at least slower from the current ones.

No bugs till now. Haven't really tried anything but a boost of 2K in antutu synthetic benchmark will show up in performance one way or another.

Good Job Guys.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Salamin1:
It's actually the other way around: the higher the number, the slower the animations. So set it to 0.5x or 1x and you should be fine
[Nexus 7 Android Development] amangupta53:
Never really used the option. Preferred the stock animation speeds. Thanks for clearing that up!.

Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Salamin1:
I'm glad I helped! Just in case, 1.0x is the stock animation speed, and you should change the three values in order to have the "full stock" animation speeds
[Nexus 7 Android Development] secret.animal:
Wait a minute here. Someone is complaining about it being too fast and fluid.

Congratulations developer you have surpassed everything anyone has ever wanted.

Next, can I get time travel on my nexus 7 grouper?

Lol
[Nexus 7 Android Development] SkOrPn:
No he was complaining about the animation speed, not the ROMs speed.

Any you will have to wait until Android 6.0 for time travel to be introduced, and even then it will be in alpha stage.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] myxXx:
hi there installed the f2fs ver 5.0 everything is nice.. just a quick question? about the f2fs download is the one on top after the 5.0 version is also f2fs?

only problem that i encountered with 5.0 f2fs is through tapatalk which opening the app and everything is ok except for ONE THING i cannot click any link on it.

not sure if its the rom. but b4 im with carbon ang that never happen... thanks
[Nexus 7 Android Development] amangupta53:
Already did. My question is why set it at 4x speeds to boot? Just for the sake of faster animations to look at?

The N7 lags like hell on IO when it gets over ~70-80% full and as gui rendering is not the top priority, even setting the animations on 0.25x won't make a difference then.

Heh. If you've lived all your life looking at stock speeds and somebody puts them at 4x speeds in a new rom - It'll make your head spin.

I heard it won't released for our grouper. It'll only be for Nexus TARDIS. (Nothing the devs here can't take care of)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] acmilan77051:
