Can you consider it stable has a daily driver ? Might give it a go but i just finished customizing my 6.0.1 setup. Do it support CM compatible theme ? I might also need to wait for my theme to get update...

Amazing Rom

This rom is amazing I use my nexus 7 in my car as my infotainment system and this rom is super smooth, I got a quick charge in my car and everything is good. I still can't get a GPS fix though, tried everything, re-flashed the rom, tried a couple of GPS calibration apps; no luck. If you can point me in the right direction it will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for this rom
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
It's my daily driver now but it doesn't have theme yet. DU-11 have theme but its still early. If its your daily driver, I think you may play with your 6.0.1 for a while. ;)

I have a Tilapia. I can't access the Google services locally so I can't use apks like Google Map. Here are some of the apks I tried.

View attachment 3894829 View attachment 3894830

A compass apk and a navigation apk. I was facing north in the balcony so only the northern sat. can be locked. Anyway, it's working fine for me.

I was using GPS Status since my first Android device. But, its compass seems not working in my Tilapia and the MTK devices. It's background process would retard the system for a while. Those Qualcomm devices are OK. I think its blob related. I just pick those working apks on my Tilapia now.

Should I had put a wrong blob to Grouper, the log would show some errors on GPS. If you found something, you may include the log here for us the study.

Good luck!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] abhifx:
its actually pretty stable and fast (yes.. first ROM that feels smooth).

GPS does seem wonky but then i have not tried much.
[MENTION=4948627]daniel_hk[/MENTION] charging still seems slow as screen plus charging still drains the battery, but is better than before and does correctly register as charging from AC and screen off charging works (although slow). i am using a 2amp charger.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Nh3xus:
First of all, it's a great ROM. :)

Bug report :

#1 : Google Maps is really slow and unusable with the September build of the ROM.

#2 : MTP process is crashing every once in a while.

I have a Grouper device. without SuperSU.

I don't know why though.

Maybe the CPU of the tablet isn't beefy enough for the newest versions of G Maps...

Thanks. :)

Hello! I have flashed last build. But I can not boot. Hangs on the update check screen. What can be wrong? Tilapia. Dynamic gapps. Sorry bad english
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
It's been a while. Finally have some time for my Tilapia.

After returning the testing devices, my Tilapia become my daily driver again.

I have fine tuned some settings to increase available memory and performance.

The settings in PerformanceControl are preserved now.

Hi

I am new to this rom ( using before dirty deeds unofficial by daniel_hk ) and i wonder how i can change the layout ( position of soft buttons ) of navbar i try for about 30 minutes using the carbon settings but no result :( Anyone can help :confused:
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
It's in:

Settings > CarbonFibers > Buttons > Edit navigation bar

How can i open application menu in horizontal position ? There are no buttons, and finger swipe does not give you anything. So besides this rom is great nexus works smoothly
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I think you meant the app drawer, right?

There is a bug in the systemUI. On phones, the nav. bar would stay at right but now it rotated to landscape in tablet. It also appears in Slim and a few other ROMs. I would take a look when I have time.

You may change to other launchers for the time being.

There's a problem adding google account, after the last step and clicking the button "I agree" I always get the error "Can't connect to google services, try later".

Any suggestions how to fix it?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] MacLeod100:
Try OpenGapps
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
The latest CR-5.1 Android-7.1.2_r8 (N2G47O) is out now. :D

In this build, the nav. bar in landscape is fixed. You can access the app drawer in landscape now.

Rotation is disabled in launcher settings by default . You have to enable it first.

A bug in wifi scan is fixed. I also checked the wifi hotspot for both 3G/2G. It works for my SIM card.

Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] pieceofphil:

Hi i run into a problem and i can´t slove this After fresh install i cant continue the setup wizard :( It stops at " set device as a fresh start " everytime i click on that ( my screen is broken and i use mouse ) i get setup stop working :( Anyone knows how to solve it ?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
CR-5.1 Android-7.1.2_r17 (NJH47B) is out

I guess you meant setup after install Gapps.

This is an known issue and I had mentioned several times in different threads.

In short,

1. You need to install ROM only.

2. Reboot and setup wifi

3. Then install Gapps and reboot.

The latest CR-5.1 Android-7.1.2_r17 (NJH47B) is out now.

In this build, the default browser is change from Chrome to CarbonBrowser. It would reduce the RAM usage.

Security patch is also updated.

[ROM][7.1.2_r17][Grouper|Tilapia][10Jun2017]CarbonROM CR-5.1 Unofficial

Using Tilapia version. Strange issue I'm encountering. Wipe everything except Internal Storage, flashed rom, boot to system, setup wifi, reboot to recovery, flashed pico gapps and latest supersu.

Boot into system, setup play store, installed Titanium Backup and plug in my thumb drive where my backups were. Thumb drive not detected. Tried another thumb drive, still not detected.

Dirty rom, pico gapps and supersu again. Still can't detect my thumb drive.

This rom does support USB thumb drive right?

I had the same problem with my 2nd gen Nexus 7 2013. So the setup wizard might be an opengapps problem.

I used to get the Setup Wizard problem on other phones. I usually would just delete the Setup Wizard .apk in the System folder in TWRP, after flashing but before the first bootup. Might work here too...

Hi,

I'm using this rom on Nexus 7 grouper and it's not connecting to a wireless enterprise network. I'm not sure if this is an issue with the Nexus or the rom but would really appreciate if there was a solution.

Thanks

It's working on Tilapia. I recalled that there's a setting that needs to be selected (it's a drop down, select not to something). Hope this helps.

It works on my home network but when I take it into work it doesn't connect so I'm guessing it has something to do with the enterprise network.

As I shared earlier, it works fine at work for me. Our network is an enterprise network. As I'm at home, I can't give you the exact name of the setting as shared above.

I don't recall that Tilapia can use for voice calls. Its for data only.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shayaanshaikh1:
I tried this and it says connecting - authorizing - saved. It doesn't actually connect.

Any other possible solutions?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] zard:
Backup data, wipe everything , flash rom, boot to system, setup wifi, reboot to recovery, flash opengapps pico, boot to system.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shayaanshaikh1:
Is it possible that it is the actual device rather than the rom because it doesn't connect on other roms either.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] zard:
There's definitely a possibility. I assume you do clean wipes with all the ROMs you tested?

Can you connect other Android device to your office network successfully? In case it is the setup of your office network that is preventing your connection.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shayaanshaikh1:
Yes I do clean wipes with all roms tested and I am connected to my office network on my Huawei P9 running nougat 7.0.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] zard:
Agree with you that it seems like a device issue.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] shayaanshaikh1:
It looks like there is a problem with several devices and someone has created a patch for jelly bean. Could you take a look at it to see if it would work on this rom. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/36950267

It's called jb_wpa_supplicant_patch_cwm.zip but I'm a bit reluctant to try it without further advice.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] zard:
Its beyond me. This ROM is Nougat. The patch is Jelly Bean. Need OP to comment.

Keeps crashing that bloody wizard. Wasted hours on this. Did all steps by the book, even installed the rom without gapps. Keeps crashing and crashing, this version is garbage and a time waster, I will search for something else that actually works.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] gamersekofy:
Try this:

1. At the first screen of the setup wizard, choose your language and tap Let's go

2. When asked if you want to setup as new or restore from backup, select new and the wizard will crash

3. Tap "Close application" and immediately after tapping it, quickly start swiping down to invoke the quick settings/notification panel

4. Tap the blue face on the top of the quick settings panel and tap on guest

After switching to guest, the setup wizard should work perfectly
[Nexus 7 Android Development] F0L:
To help also. I solved issue by swiping down. Then I went to network settings and connected to my network. After that the wizard ran fine and finished setup perfectly.

OTA udpate

Thank you [MENTION=4948627]daniel_hk[/MENTION] for your excellent work.

I flashed my google nexus 7 2012 with your Jan 10, 2017 version and i am wondering how can I update to newest releases?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
CR-5.1 Android-7.1.2_r24 (NJH47D) is out

Anyway, it's always the right move to backup first. Your version is 6 months ago. I think you may try a dirty flash first.

Try flashing ROM+gapps+Supersu without factory reset. Just wipe dalvik and cache afterwards.

If it doesn't work,

Flash ROM, reboot and setup wifi.

Then Flash Gapps+SuperSU

The latest CR-5.1 Android-7.1.2_r24 (NJH47D) is out

OTA

[MENTION=4948627]daniel_hk[/MENTION], does it mean OTA updates are not supported? you wont be able to push updates to the device and user has to manually flash the ROM with every new update?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] johne3003:
i'm stuck on the C logo after rooting again.

I flashed the rom yesterday. worked fine. Wanted to try some other rom today.

I deleted all the rom and superuser files from the nexus.

Root checker app said it's not rooted so i went to root it again.

Root process went fine but after rebooting it got stuck on the C logo.

I can go into recovery, but i deleted all the files before. Tried erasing cache and data, didn't help.

What to do ?

edit:

pushed the rom with adb, erased all data/reset/cache, installed it, pushed pico gaaps, installed.

now i get stuck on setup screen with "setup wizard keeps stopping" ?

edit2:

managed to get pass the setup wizard with turning it landscape mode and

Tap the top-left corner of the screen.

Tap the top-right corner of the screen.

Tap the bottom-right corner of the screen.

Tap the bottom-left corner of the screen.

and keep doing it until it got through.

I've been out of the nexus 7 world for a while now and I was wondering if parrot mod is still something useful to flash on this rom or if it's already optimized. Didn't like the lag I had with my last rom and this is my last hope before going back to KitKat.

i have installed the lastest version CR-5.1 Android-7.1.2_r24 (NJH47D) and all is working nice.

I just have a few questions, the kernel supports these devices ?

USB DVB-T & RTL-SDR Realtek RTL2832U & R820T DVB-T Tuner Receiver

Easycap USB 2.0 TV Video Audio VHS to DVD HDD Converter Capture Card Adapter

i saw in your github ( android_kernel_asus_tegra ) (if this rom is using that kernel) says that supports Car Install support but i dont know if support devices that i want to know.

PD: i cant post any links because im new in xda.

Edit:

i foget to say i have to little problems

1st PerformanceControl is crashing for any reason.

2nd i think there is a problem with the path of the media files, yesterday i wanted to play some mp3 but the error was " corrupt or missing" after a few tries i could play them, right now i want to upload the screens from the app but the same error.

Hi,

Here's my feedback.

I've completely wiped my grouper device to try out your latest version.

Pros :

- Much more responsible than previous versions

- Camera works

Cons :

- The "Performance Controll" App bundled in the ROM is still unusable on my device. I had to disable it to make my tablet usable.

This app makes the tablet run slow until the app crashes and the whole issue starts over and over...

- The Netflix devs are messing around with people that have either unlocked bootloader or rooted devices.... There's a whole thread on Reddit about this.

Even some genuine OEM ROMs are affected

Great work indeed, which is much appreciated. :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] abhifx:

Nice setup with buttons on nav bar. MInd sharing how you did it? if i try adding multiple buttons, i almost ruin the alignment thus buttons either dont show or mess up the navbar buttons. i am using custom icons for media buttons. adding just two buttons work fine.

Tilapia supports USB and Bluetooth tethering now.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] DonSanches:
Great!

Pretty nice ROM!

Couple of issues I ran into so far:

1) It often happens that on the lockscreen I enter the PIN and the device does not unlock and the only thing I can do is reboot.

2) On my Bluetooth keyboard the layout doesn't switch by Ctrl-Space. After I installed Google Keyboard it started to work but soon stopped to switch... could you please give a hint how to solve it? I don't quite know whether the reason is in the ROM or something else.

Thank you once again for your job!
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
1. I notice similar thing. I haven't try PIN yet. I have tried patten and swipe. Sometimes it required a few attempt to unlock. It usually happen after a long sleep. It would be better if we wait a bit longer to unlock after the screen is on. It appears in all the ROMs I have tried and only in Nougat. Don't know why yet. Need to study...

Edit: There is a trick in swipe. If you swipe down from the status bar once, it would not have problem to unlock. See if it work for PIN. ;)

2. I don't have a bluetooth keyboard so can't help. You may attach the full logcat when this happen. See if we can find out why.
[Nexus 7 Android Development] RastaFATian:
Very good nougat rom, first time using the carbon... Very fluid, substratum works with restart, oms is not integrated like pure nexus rom 6 mm. But for me it's the best 7 nougat rom for our nexus. Thanks a lot for your efforts, it's nice to see this old device so alive. :)

[Nexus 7 Android Development] adstraylight:
I've found a tweak that makes quite a difference, that I'd never heard of before, but I think should be included in every 7.0 ROM for the grouper.

Settings - Carbon Fibres - Misc - Scrolling Cache, if you set it to default disabled, scrolling gets a lot smoother, and apps more stable IMO.

I was finding that some news apps etc would crash occasionally if I tried to scroll before they were fully loaded. This has been pretty much eliminated with this tweak, alongside turning on GPU rendering in Dev Options.

Thanks for reviving our Grouper Devices. I was going to actually try and configure/compile the RR rom while almost no developer is compiling them any longer stopped at version 5.6.9. I brought this up because in that thread there were complaints about the /system folder being to small to install gapps. Is this true in 7.0 N also? My other question is how are you able to configure/compile an Android N release when Google stopped the binary at version 5.1.1 for grouper. Obviously you have been able to compile this rom with the 5.1.1 google binary correct?
[Nexus 7 Android Development] daniel_hk:
I built RR for 5.1.1 but I didn't think its good enough (mostly AOSP's problem) for daily use. I also issued a pull request to fix a bug in RR but up to this moment (2 yrs. now), no reply after reviewed. I think they are too busy on their work and there are better options. Therefore I dropped it.

In late 2015, Dmitry Grinberg patched the blobs for a few nexus devices to work with MM. I follow his step early last year.

N is a bit different and you have to deal with the sepolicy a lot. All my sources are in github. You would know what to do by studying them. There are enough info. to start with. Just read before you ask and act.

Good luck. :)

Fantastic Rom

Thanks for the great Nougat rom. No issues from the apps I used, including adaway and v4a. I also use parrodmod. My device is very fast and smooth now and is my daily driver. Just waiting for xposed to be ready for Nougat.

It will be perfect if the battery can last for an hour or two more.
