11/28 Build with 11/29 Open Gapps (micro)... so far so good. it's only been a few hours, but it already feels better. I'll check in again tomorrow with more.

Okay, there is one thing to report now. When the tablet first started up and finalized the setup wizard, auto rotate worked! Now, after a few hours.... nothing.

I do apologize for the OT but I guess it caused a bit of light heartedness.

The book shelf is big with a lot of crap on it and I'm lazy. I put it up out of the way so my kids wouldn't steel it and the damn cat, that we got the day before, jumped way up there and knocked it down. One in a million really. It was working so well so I am interested in the latest builds. maybe I will fill ambitious this week.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] FirePsych:
On a serious note (I know, right?!),

11/28 ROM, with 11/29 OpenGapps Nano, freeze-city.

I think it started after I installed Firefox, which is usually, relatively memory-friendly.

The stock ROM doesn't seem to have browser, so I had to download something.

I'm open to suggestions.

As an aside, and I admit up front, I'm being lazy, though I'm googling it (searching XDA requires too many brain cells), When I install the ROM and GAPPS, I skip the Google setup and install as a new device.

How do I get back to the Google Setup, so I can restore my apps from the last backup on Google's servers I had for this device. Essentially, the inital step I skipped?

EDIT: going to give Dolphin another try. Started getting quirky on me for a while, so I stepped away.

EDIT Part Deux: Ended up doing an FDR through Setting > Backup and Restore. Really not a big deal, since I hadn't installed much at this point anyway.

TIA

[Nexus 7 Android Development] cameraddict:
Opera mini isn't too bad at this point. I hear you about Dolphin. Though.... I have dozens of bookmarks with them. So grrr.. I'm stuck for the moment.

I'm running 11/28 with the 11/29 Open Gapps Micro. So far so good. As for the freezing, this rom so far appears to have a memory management problem. I've been running with developer options turned on and setting a limit of 3 running processes. This seems to do the trick. Occasionally, I still kill an app or two from the recents menu.

This is working okay for me.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] galakanokis:
I felt bad about the OT so I dug out my tablet with my kids claw arm thingy. Flashed and working great. No slow downs or little freezes, fantastic. For a browser I have been using Puffin, no issues with it.

Thanks guys.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cameraddict:
So after a day or so of use on the newest release, I'm having the same issues:

memory management. Frequently running into low memory events causing extreme slowdowns to unresponsiveness. Solved, so far, by limiting background processes to 3, and occasionally killing others in the recents screen.

Killer wakelocks. My device sat idle for about 20 hours. It drained from nearly 85% to about 11. In the KK days, after this amount of idle time I would have still had about 60%. I've got crazy wakelocks. So I've just killed all in the wakelock Tentacle killer, except for

Activity Manager Sleep and

Show Keygaurd

If I block those two, my device has a hard time waking up. So I'll give it another day and see if my battery lasts longer.

I recently installed MM on my T-Mo GS2, and it is running great! One of the new features that is killer is: Doze. Man, my device uses about .8% hour when "Dozing". Under KK, my device would average about 3% while in deep sleep. In contrast my N7 in KK would only use about 1.4% while in deep sleep. So I can't wait it's usage once Doze is finally able to kick in.

ps... I sent logs this morning

[Nexus 7 Android Development] cameraddict:
Well... so far, I can report that my N7 appears to be entering Doze. With the wakelocks blocked, from my last post, my device now enters deep sleep and is only using .7% battery/hour. Compared to 1.4% or so in deep sleep with KK. So... I keep coming back to this: I really don't think it is hardware limited (with the exception of maybe not having driver support). I think it comes down to software optimization. When I get the memory and wakelocks under control, my device is just as fast as the day I bought it, maybe faster, and sleeps deeper.

I'll keep watching it to see if anything else goes awry. But, even if I had to baby it like this until I replace it, in another year or two, I'd be okay.

:D

---------- Post added at 02:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 AM ----------

Does this ROM support USB OTG? So far I get nothing when plugging in my cable and sd card reader. This is an important feature for me. I hope I just missed the tick box somewhere.

Sounds like you didn't Factory Reset - Advanced in TWRP - Manually Wipe System - Data and Cache

Your post was good for pointing out what you perceived as issues (only one of which appears to be correct) But regardless you seemed to completely ignore the VERY Substantial improvements over the previous builds.... Doesn't exactly show any appreciation for the work that the Devs are doing on a Device that Google almost certainly won't update to Marshmallow

Pull Down works

Google Now works

Nav Bar and Status Bar are Semi transparent

Google Tap isn't working for me - But did you enable it?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cjkacz:
Did you clean flash the build? The only bug verified is Now on Tap not working which has plaqued us for two weeks now. I have narrowed it down but still haven't been able to fix it. Hopefully this week. Our testers haven't experienced any of the other issues you spoke of.

I'm using a combination of the Android backup system (for essential apps that I install from the very beginning of a device/Rom's use. These are essential, and ones that I will NOT not use. So I have them installed during setup.) For everything else, once I confirm that a build is working for me with my essential apps, I use TB and install them slowly to look for issues. This process takes a few days. Once a ROM is stable for me, I'll do a bulk restore from TB if I do a factory reset for some reason.

Hi OctOS team,

Thanks for the ROM, which I have just made a clean flash to my N7. So far things are smooth, except that the notification drawer pull-down background is not transparent (the whole screen, not the drawer itself). I wonder if this is designed by default?

In fact, as soon as I touch the status bar, the whole screen goes black with the drawer area shown only

I installed this ROM (OCT-M-WEEKLY-20151205-0452-grouper) yesterday and was surprised how good it is. What the hell did Google do with that awful Lollipop Firmware to make it that slow?

Just installed 1205. Much better, so far, than 11/29. I see that the system option for LowRamDevice seems to have been implemented. The device seems a bit snappier and has fewer low mem events. But, I've only been using the new version for about 4 hours. Battery life seems to be about the same as before. Though, Doze is using much less battery now. After an hour just off battery while sitting idle, device still showed 100%
[Nexus 7 Android Development] twics:
Yea sorry I may have been a little hasty it is charging but still seems a little slow to me, also what's the name of the app to fix rotation? I did see the post but can't find it again.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cameraddict:
I just experienced my first force reboot and a random reboot with this version. I sent a log.

Auto rotate seems to work sometimes. Can't seem to pin down a sequence of events that causes it to stop working. Also, no OTG support for me. neither the system, nor ES File explorer recognize my sd card in it's reader. (FYI, this setup worked just fine under KK, so I know my reader/cable/sd card all work properly).

Thanks!

I just installed 12/19 with Open Gapps 12/19 Pico. So far, everything is much smoother than 12/12. It could be that I'm using the smallest possible Gapps package, however. Installing a complete Gapps package on MM has caused many system instability issues. But, so far (16 hours of use) 12/19 seems to handle memory a bit better than 12/12. I'll update as the week progresses.

Thanks again!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] cameraddict:
Actually, what I've found is that system installed Gapps tend to crap out and freeze. I've found this to be true on my SII as well. If I just get Play services in a system Gapps package and then install all the Googly apps from the play store, these apps don't misbehave. I don't think this is a hardware problem, but instead a software optimization problem. As of today, I think one of the best things Google did was to unhitch all the Gapps from the system and make them user installable.

As for the system being stable as I reported in my last post... sigh, after a few days use, I'm running into OOM events again (the other day my system went below 150mb free! That is a first!) . And an occasional freeze. But I am experiencing less frequent freezes that require a reboot. So that's good!

Hi. I'm a bit of a noobie so please bear with me. I've never flashed a ROM using TWRP. Will this ROM work if I flash it using CWM?

Just in case, I downloaded TWRP from the Play store. It seems that I can set it to flash a ROM without rebooting into Recovery. Like I said, being a noobie, I don't want to mess up when installing this ROM, so any assistance will be highly appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cjkacz:
There are folks who use our ROM with cwm. We as a team to be consistent all use twrp so we can attest that it works with twrp. My suggestion is to make a backup of your current ROM and give it a try with cwm. If it doesn't flash properly than you can revert back to your previous ROM. At that point you can decide if you'd like to give twrp a go
