You could use xposed, more info here http://xdaforums.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979 use the SDK 22 arm 64 zip. Flash that in recovery. Then after booting back up, install the installer located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 then use gravitybox located here http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/app-gravitybox-v5-0-0alpha-tweak-box-t3037566 and then you should be able to make all the changes that you want to.

I've used it on this ROM so you shouldn't have any problems.

Yep I got the same issue - I got around it by rebooting from TWRP back into TWRP and I was able to restore backup but got the same message at the end of the restore --- sounds like bug w/ twrp.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] DanteGR:
Thanks for confirming pal.

Problem is that I took a backup with the new recovery.

Hope it doesn't cause me any trouble in restoring. Will let you know.

After a few days of use, this build is much better than 6.0.1 r3.

Smooth, almost no FC, works well with both ElementX Kernal and Xposed (not 100%, but better than r3)
[Nexus 9 Android Development] DanteGR:
Yes the last 2 builds have literally transformed the device.

It's the smoothest experience on the Nexus 9 yet. The only lags I'm still encountering have to do with the Opera browser.

Having just installed the latest ROM I congratulate you on a very smooth and fast one.

Initial Noobbuilds Nougat Release

The Initial Noobbuilds Nougat release is up in the OP.

If coming from M or stock I recommend full wipe. I have started working on Noob Mods. Only one included for now. As I figure more out I will try and add them in.

Note: AdAway has been patched for systemless root ----> Preferences ---> Check Enable systemless mode.

Please flash enjoy.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:

Not yet -- was not aware of this option :o . I will check it out and try for next release. :good:

Thank you for the ROM. I'm trying it out now (for a couple hours). It seems very smooth so far. I was ready to go back to M, but I decided to give this a try. I'm glad I did.

I think all it needs is the new Google System UI tweaker!

EDIT: Nevermind. I got the System UI menu to com up. Sweet.

Thanks again!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
Found it LOL next build.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mrwirez:
Just an FYI, there is a System UI - [TWRP] Flashable zip in the Nexus 6P forums for the full UI tweaks. I backed up the fresh N9 Noobuilds ROM (Thank You much!) and flashed away.

All went fine. I have the full System UI tuner with all the tweaks, including the navbar settings.

I'll post the link if no one cares, and someone wants it.

Could save some people some time, and as usual, user discretion advised.

I'm working on bringing all that into my rom -- Hopefully porting all to Noob Mods and soon.

[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mrwirez:
[MENTION=5526655]fhem[/MENTION] Thanks for the great ROM!

Are these the same bootloader and vendor versions from previous build?

Do I need to reflash the bootloader if coming from your previous 7.0 ROM?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
The Nov factory image had a new bootloader xxxxxxx.141.img the previous one was xxxxxxx.139.img. So yes I would fastboot flash the bootloader. The vendor image is also new -- you flash can via twrp or fastboot.

I HATE SNOW!!!!!

All images are linked in the OP.

[Nexus 9 Android Development] Bryanx86:
Really enjoying smoothness and stability of your ROM, thank you. But if I may make a request, screenshot option in quick settings with option for partial screenshot too. The only thing I miss from my previous ROM . Great job!

PS I hate snow too, lol
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Dark_Eyes:
please rebased to 7.1
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mrwirez:
It seems fine for me, but I don't use the full themes. I only add the dark themes to the BLINDINGLY-PURE-WHITE Google apps.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mujib@r:
From OP -- "I intend to update ROM as AOSP updates."
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
Did you dirty flash??? Did you delete .substratum and substratum folders from internal storage partition before flashing. This latest version of Substratum needs 100% clean install.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
Working on both --- we'll see how it goes.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] sabrdawg:
Thanks so much! I did clean flash, but I didn't delete the folders. I'll try that :)
[Nexus 9 Android Development] sabrdawg:
Well, I deleted the folders and did a fresh flash. This time, my tablet freezes while the theme is being applied and reboots. Oh well. Still a great ROM! :)
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Bryanx86:
It seems like your theme isn't nougat compatible, I use deity theme, its free and has a lot of options.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mujib@r:
Many thanks for keeping flounder alive! Just installed this ROM and it seems pretty smooth already. Not sure what you have planned for future builds, but I hope you'll consider a few feature requests:

Double tap to sleep on lockscreen

Quick pulldown for notification drawer

Volume button swap

Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Bryanx86:
Also if I may add a request of partial screenshot in quick settings, and a reboot toggle in QS. Thank you for a smooth ROM!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] pathtologos:
Hey all. Themes look sweet! I'm currently on a 7.1 rom. According to op I am on correct vendor. Can I wipe and flash this ROM like usual even though I'm coming from 7.1?

Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mujib@r:
Yup. Make sure you do a complete clean wipe -- system, data, cache, Dalvik/Art.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] pathtologos:
Hey again. Thanks for your response. Just one more question b4 I flash. Does this ROM have option to use expanded desktop per app? That's one of those must haves for me. I hate seeing the nav bar in games.

Thanks.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Mujib@r:
Not sure. I don't use expanded desktop. My tab isn't with me right now so I can't check.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Bryanx86:
No expanded desktop, but very smooth and stable
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
I just finished rebasing to 7.1 all seems ok. I will work on trying to add some of the requested features before releasing again. It looks like 7.1.1 may be coming very soon so....................... I may be rebasing again :crying: :good::good:
[Nexus 9 Android Development] XDACXW:
the pixel nav and boot animation would be greater:fingers-crossed:

Good stuff & glad I discovered the Noobbuilds ROM. This has definitely extended my tablet life. It was running VERY VERY BAD before this ROM... ?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] sheenswizner:
Can I flash this rom on LTE variant?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
If you use the phone on your tab --- NO. If you don't use the phone it should be ok but really not sure. I don't have an LTE device. I don't include the rild w/ the rom so the phone will not work.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
New Build Up In OP

New build up in the OP. This is major update so I would NOT dirty flash. The bootloader has not changed so no need to flash that.

The new ROM and vendor image are both linked in the OP.

One word of caution. Subtratum may be a little funky -- there is fix coming for 7.1.1. Also make sure you pick a theme that is compatible with 7.1.1 ROMs. I have not played w/ changing themes yet with 7.1.1. I just pick one I like and stick with it. I am waiting for the Sub fix.

I manged to include some of the requested mods but not all. I am working on the expanded desktop and screen recording/partial screenshots. If I mange to get some of those working I will post an update.

Enjoy.

noobbuilds_flounder-7.1.1-20161211-1606.zip doesn't seem to want to install
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
I'm sorry you guys are having issues. I have had no issues.

I assume you both are/have

1. Using twrp 3.0.2.-1

2.Fastboot flashed both the lastest bootloader and vendor images.

3.Checked your md5 after downloading rom.

4. Prior to flashing rom from twrp wipe dalvik/caches, system, data x 3 (just to be sure lol) do not wipe internal storage

5. Tried flashing rom only (no wipe after flash)-- nothing else no gapps nothing -- see if it boots ok. (5-8 mins first boot)

6. If it boots ok then got back to twrp wipe all again and try w/ gapps

6. Using 7.1 / 64 bit gapps.

Give it try and let me know.

Good luck hope all works for you.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
I didn't try it on this ROM, but I was having issues booting using the latest 7.1.1 bootloader and vendor on other ROMs. I flashed back to older versions and good to go. Only thing is the vendor error message on boot.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] zosimov21:
So I reflashed the bootloader & installed vendor from twrp 3.0.2-1

Formatted all partitions, rebooted back into recovery

Placed ROM and GApps into sd

After flash erased cache/davlik again

Rebooted now it will let me setup.

I hadn't tried with this ROM, as I'd already gone back to the old stuff from pervious ROMs that had failed. Will give the new one a shot. Thanks for clarifying for others that it does work.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] sunmybun:
everything works fine except the battery percentage and etc.

Im on the NMF26F vendor and bootloader for wifi nexus 9

i think its the base of this rom because the other aosp 7.1.1 r4 rom is the same

the NMF26O is the pixel vendor right? it could be that

I dont mind having the nexus 9's vendor as base

as long its stable and no problems. also less work since its the same device's vendor.

thanks for your work. this is just my 2 cents
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Choochter:
The vendor.img contains the proprietary (not open source) stuff specific to your tablet - you can't use one from another device
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
Just added it will be in the next release. Here and here

Come on in the waters fine. Good to see you back!!!! :good::good:

The rom base 7.1.1_r4 is fine for flounder!!! Most dev's are using 7.1.1_r4 for all devices. The vendor image linked in the op if for the N9 wifi. The one has nothing to do w/ the other.

When enabled the native battery % sucks -- it shows inside the battery icon and is so small I can't read it. I am working on adding mod's for the battery %. :cool:
[Nexus 9 Android Development] sunmybun:
Ok thanks for the responses

I dont know why the battery percentage shows incorrect percentage. I would have to disconnect cable and reeeconnect cable and then the percentage jumps by 3-4 percentage.

I have to that many times until it doesnt jump anymore.

If i leave the charger on. The battery percentage goes up very slowly. So the percentage is displayed incorrectly

Is there a fix for this? I know someone asked the same question
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Choochter:
The usual fix is to flash the Fire-ice kernel, but the latest version is showing the same problem. Dev is aware of it
[Nexus 9 Android Development] porschet:
Just flashed this ROM and my N9 has never run this smooth. No issues other than battery percentage not being accurate. Thank you for sharing your ROM.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] sabrdawg:
Great ROM! My only issue is the Substratum is still being wonky. It'll freeze in the middle of applying a theme, and reboot with no changes.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Choochter:
Substratum still isn't fully compatible with 7.1+
[Nexus 9 Android Development] lmulli:
And in fairness, the majority of themes are crap anyway so you aren't missing anything!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
Test build for battery % reporting issue. Let me know if this if this fixes it on you end. Dirty flash + gapps should be OK.

Please read this post #242 above.

Netflix with night mode.

I'm getting the classic sound without picture problem. In the past when I've had this problem I could fix it by renaming liboemcrypto.so or deleting. However my N9 is not allowing this. Cf lumen works fine as an overlay but not with the rooted driver. Anyone have a solution?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] lmulli:
Any chance you implement the backing up of Gapps prior to flashing a new rom save having to reinstall Gapps each time like most other custom roms do? Ta.

[MENTION=5526655]fhem[/MENTION] Battery fix doesn't work for me, although I'm using Fire-ice kernel. Do I need to use the supplied kernel?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] fhem:
To tell the truth I'm not sure -- please test w/ the rom supplied K.

I'm running rom K -- but I'm not sure what/where you guys are seeing issue. Settings/battery --- I assume this where you are looking/seeing issue.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] Choochter:
Problem is that when charging or discharging the reported battery level doesn't keep up with reality - big problem as it could lead to overcharging. Been a problem on Nexus 9 custom ROMs for ages. Usually solved by flashing Fire-ice kernel but that's not cutting it this time. [MENTION=5501864]USBhost[/MENTION] has a 7.1.1 ROM up which doesn't have this issue, might want to ask him for more info.

I'll try the supplied kernel. Great ROM by the way
