Hello everyone,

I'm pretty new if it comes to Android devices, I bought Nexus 7 a couplo of weeks ago. Currently I ahve installed CyanogenMod based on Android 4.4.4, I'm pretty happy with the performance actually. I wanted to ask you, is there a point of installing Cyanogenmod with Android 6.0.1? What are the pros and cons? Is the performance better?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] KawaiiAurora:
I guess the only 'point' of sorts is well whether you like the UI or not. CM13 (Based on MM) is just as fast as LiquidSmooth 4.4.4 if you have the Trimmer eMMC fix. There are no real pros or cons that are device specific I think
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ak_hepcat:
mmm, new build up today. That's cool.

Time to blind install it without changelogs being posted! (and then be patient for the changelogs)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] GtrCraft:
The changelog is just up to date with the sources, nothing more

Me too, but I never tried it before. It's not something I use.

Could you help me to find the trimmer eMMC fix ?

Thanks.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] toeb:
Hi all,

on a older version of CM I was able to use wpa_cli to add and delete wifi networks. But in the current verion a lot of commands like 'wpa_cli add_network' fail with 'UNKNOWN COMMAND'.

So i tried to directly modify /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf to add/delete a network, but this file seems to get reset to the previous version all the time (e.g. after enable/disable Wifi).

Does anyone know a way to add/remove a network via adb?

toeb
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hirenpatelcr:
Installed in grouper. In first boot it works great. And after second boot UI gets crashed. I tried to install it twice but same problem (Started with wipe data and Cache both time). Now it is just draining the battery because UI restart loop is continuously running. I have downloaded another ROM but not installed It because I want to inform this bug to ROM developer. If ROM developer want to do some experiment, I am waiting.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Licaon_Kter:
GApps Pico I hope?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] hirenpatelcr:
Yes... First i tried pico. When UI get started to crash i thought it may be problem of Gapps. So I also tried to install nano gapps. But our nexus angrily replied "Go back to your home. I have not enough space." Haha. I came back to pico.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ski522:
Unfortunately after about 45 days of using the ROM, I'm starting to see it become sluggish...not quite as bad as it was with CM12, but enough to make it frustrating at times.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Licaon_Kter:
I can confirm, been using the same 4 apps all the time, now visibly slower. :(
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rbeavers:
Me too the 2-25 update gets cloged up. Clean install after 2 weeks.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TeardownDan:
How many apps do you have open in the background? If I keep only one significant app open at a time, my tablet remains quite responsive. As soon as I try juggling two non-trivial apps though, performance takes a dump. Looks like L/M might be trying too hard to avoid shutting down background apps and processes for a tablet with only 1GB of RAM.

I experienced a similar hell on a Dell Venue 8 3840 with the tablet periodically becoming unusable due to low RAM. It could not even run Chrome for more than a few minutes at a time between crashes from running out of RAM. The Dell bloatware and x86 runtime were leaving only 350MB of RAM available for apps vs about 550MB on the N7 with 4.4.4 and 5.x.

This makes me wonder why the heck so many companies are still launching new budget-oriented Android tablets with only 1GB of RAM in 2016. Then again, most tablets (that I have tried) under $200 are simply craptacular and make me wish I could upgrade my 2012 N7 to 2GB RAM instead of buying something new within the same price range.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] samjam:
Some apps, like photos+Chromecast appear to leak badly. Forcibly closing the app recovers the memory. I observe this on many devices.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ski522:
Probably a couple, but pretty much the same ones from when I first loaded this ROM. Just seems to have become sluggish over time. Is there some way to shut down apps that are not being used?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] cameraddict:
I use the app, Recently, on the play store. It helps to manage the recents menu. There is a setting to only allow currently running apps to remain in the Recents list. This basically force closes anything that is not front and center or currently active. It seems to help. I also use an app to force the trim command a few times a week.

There are also a few apps that will automatically reboot the device when ever you want. I usually do a few times a week at about 4am. This helps a lot. You could also automate the clearing of the cache partition.

Together, those four items should make the N7 a bit more usable over the long haul.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] sqs1shu:
for anyone who experienced slow down, do you have max background processes set to 4 as in the second post of this thread? I have not used it too much to experience slow down.

Great work, GtrCraft, for this 6.0.1 ROM!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] ski522:
Thanks, I was running trim but completely missed the suggestion in that post on setting background processes to 4. So I've tried that and rebooted...so far so good.

I do think now that what I was seeing was just too many task being opened in the background that I didn't know were running.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rbeavers:
Still slows to a crawl, 3rd clean install since 2/25 update. Cleaning caches doesn't help. Trim twice a day 4 max process journal off. Thanks to GtrCraft for the Work.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TeardownDan:
If you have many background processes that start automatically, limiting the number of background processes simply forces the OS to repeatedly start and terminate background processes. On my tablet, I disabled the "Start Automatically", "Wake Up" and most other permissions on all non-essential apps to keep background activity to a minimum.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] humano:
Great ROM.

One question, should I let /system on ext4 and just format /cache and /data on f2fs?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Licaon_Kter:
So yesterday was strange, it got pretty slow, (soft) rebooted all by it self, stuck on animated logo, I cleaned dalvik/cache, retried to no avail, always stuck on boot animation.

I'l reflash 20160313 again, maybe it helps.

/LE:

when flashing, and no joy, still bootlooping

Full wipe is needed then... oh ffs...

/LE2: Wiped system/data/cache/dalvik

Flashed 20160313, PicoGAPPS, SU, Xposed, jubscript

Started ok, started to config things, everything got really slow, it soft rebooted by itself, got back to lock screen frozen, soft booted yet again, back to frozen lockscreen

I forced it off :-\

Waiting for the next build...
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rbeavers:
After my 4th "clean" install I noticed on restart all my apps were updating in the art screen, even though they were not in app tray. I restored an old kk nandroid back up then installed MM. Didn't have to delete "sdcard". Every thing working Great! Now.

Thanks for this great ROM , Waiting for N :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] andr01d3:
Thank you very much! This ROM works much better than any other ROM that I have tried before. I hope to see you updating it for long time ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bluray93:
I'm about to flash this rom, i would like to use f2fs for cache and data, do I still need to disable journaling?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 5 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 7 Android Development] akoppes:
F2fs doesn't use journaling, so no need to disable it.

/system is normally read-only, so even though while it still is formatted as ext4, there is no need to disable journaling for /system either.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] GauharJK:
I converted /data and /cache to f2fs, then flashed this ROM. The tablet boots, but is unusable because setup continues to crash on blank screen after boot. Unable to bypass crashing setup.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] asusltu:
For me on N7 is lagging so badly on cm13, i cant use device , why?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rbeavers:
Wipe every thing!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] asusltu:
Problem is that, i wiped everything,i reinstalled soft with sdk(so its totaly cleaned), and flashed cm13 and still device laggs.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Couldn't agree more. My n7 is lagging like crazy, nearly unusable. I've set it up new and fresh a couple of times. You can use it as a tablet for a cup of coffee, I'm afraid of ... It's a pity ...

Btw my son is using a galaxy nexus with cm13 and this device is performing much, much better and it's much, much older. N4 and N10 are also performing much better, and they've a similar age.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] andrycarlons:
I'm using this ROM since 2 months and it's always smooth. What model of N7 do you have?

Inviato dal mio XT1068 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 7 Android Development] aaopt:
Everyone says wipe. Waste of time and of perfectly good data. Then half the time you find it didn't help anyway.

For N7 the best advice is to go into developer settings and set background processes to 3. Still won't run like a device with 2gb RAM but much better. May need to reapply the setting after reboots... I'm not sure what affects it. Also run the trimmer app now and then if you are using ext4, or follow directions from the second or third post in this thread to make it run automatically from time to time.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Licaon_Kter:
Trimmer every 12 hours, journal off, no joy.

I had it once slow down to a crawl on first setup, no apps just picoGapps, and then it soft-rebooted to a boot loop.

I now have it un-setup, back on Feb 15 build, waiting for the next build... maybe this time.... maybe.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] octoploid:
Works fine for me

I've updated from CM12 four days ago and everything runs fine.

Battery lifetime more than doubled compared to CM12.

So a big thank you to GtrCraft.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] rbeavers:
I nandroided? A KK backup, that redid the partitions, Reinstated MM that partitioned it back, took care of my lag. FYI.

Edit:

for a little while ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Balerathon:
Howdy,

Just tried installing the 03/13 nightly + pico Gapps (without a reboot in between), I'm getting the same error message endlessly - 'Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has Stopped' - [OK].

I've tried wiping everything (except internal storage) several times and then reinstalling the ROM -> Gapps -> Reboot (system).

No luck :/

I even tried using this from the adb shell: pm grant com.google.android.setupwizard android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE --> Reboot, no luck.

Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] steevp:
I solved by flashing an older version of gapps.

03/13 works for sure:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Balerathon:
Yep, that worked! You rock!

It's shocking to me that Open GApps still allows that build to be downloaded. There are so many threads open about this issue. They need to get their [stuff] together on this.

Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Licaon_Kter:
Good to know, I still use an older version, out of lazyness.

[Nexus 7 Android Development] shoeprano27:
hello. so i see that you provided some mods to speed up the nexus 7. for parrotmod, im reading their thread and its a rom? so im flashing parrotmod over cm13?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] akoppes:
ParrotMod is NOT a full rom.

When installed it changes some settings for your existing rom and filesystems to minimize lag.

As described in the ParrotMod thread, you should flash you ROM first, then ParrotMod and finally SuperSU, which is required for ParrotMod to work properly.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] roomer11:
After flashing this CM, Open GAPPS, ParrotMod and SuperSU, I keep getting booted into TWRP and not into system ?

[Nexus 7 Android Development] lianaboy:
I did experience problems to connect to the network for the 1st time - I did disconnect/forget network, connected to another (tethering via mobile) and reconnected back to the previous wifi network. Then it worked... did you try other Marshmallow ROMs for the N7 2012? Maybe PureNexus?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] TeardownDan:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] akillenb:
Try reflashing boot.

After downloading or extracting the most recent boot.img, do a "fastboot flash boot bootname.img"

Be sure to change "bootname" to the proper name of the image.

Then you may need to reflash the rom, gapps, etc.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
Which twrp version are you using? If 3.0 then you can try the 2.8.7.0 version ...

GApps and Play Store

Hi everyone,

I am very new to Rooting and ROMs so I was told to go for the CyanogenMod 13 which I found at this post. I have a 2012 Nexus 7 (WiFi), my issue is that I am struggling to get the Google Play Store app. I have tried to install the ARM>6.0>full and the ARM>6.0>Pico Open GApps from their website but the full version fails to install and I think the pico version is just crashes as i get the following messages on booting my device up "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has Stopped" and Unfortunately, "Google Play Services has Stopped".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Jamie
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Licaon_Kter:
You did make a "factory reset" (NO data wipe) from recovery after flashing those, right?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] jamiesmachon:
Hi, yes I did a full system, data, cache and delvik wipe so the tablet was as clean as a whistle before I attempted to install the ROM and GApps. I am using TeamWin 3.0.0 when in Recovery Mode.

I hope this helps.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] PukeStinkLikeRye:
Had the same problem and here is the fix that worked for me... I installed latest Open GApps Pico file for this ROM... but the problem is due to Play Store having no Permissions.

To Fix go to Settings -> Apps -> Google Play Store -> Permissions -> and enable the ones listed... for me was Contacts, Location, Phone, SMS, Storage....

Guessing not having permission for Storage was the problem!

Hope this solves you problem as it did mine :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] :
It seems Twrp 3.0 is the problem, you should use twrp 2.8.7.0 when you are flashing ROM and GApps. TWRP 3.0 crashes GApps permissions while you are updating/flashing new ROM over already flashed GApps.

I was facing the same experiences with Nexus 7 and 10, TWRP 3.0 for these devices is buggy.

Has anyone else had trouble with bluetooth with this rom, everytime i try and connect bluetooth it says bluetooth share has stopped then it turns off bluetooth and restarts it, cannot connect at all.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] bluray93:

Some impressions after the new build:

* Wi-Fi can't connect (might be something else as the previous one worked at first but not today, the same)

* LiveDisplay quick tile was added, but once removed you can't find it anymore

* still no LockScreen tile available, same as above, you have it on factory restore, you delete it and it disappears.

* sometimes, with bigger top two tiles, there might be another empty row added to the quick tiles, that might disappear after a while.
