Android P build is working great on my FLO, thanks for this. Pixel Launcher keeps crashing if I try to use it (I assume that's why quickstep is included). Apologize for my ignorance (I'm a bit of a noob with these), is that just something that won't work with the nexus 7 devices? I like having the google now or google feed or whatever they are calling it now option on the swipe right from the home screen. Minor issue, just curious if it's fixable. Thanks in advance and thanks again for the ROM!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Clamor:
[MENTION=9329270]ct5320[/MENTION] you need some moded version of pixel launcher. Original one has some other packages dependenciesz and you need to install them all for proper work.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] adstraylight:
Nova launcher beta has the feed option via a companion app. It's now called Google Discover....??
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ct5320:
Thanks to you both, I will give Nova a shot. And thanks again for this mod Clamor, can't believe how smooth this is on such an old device

I'm using Lawnchair Launcher and Google feed works like a charm https://t.me/lawnchairci

Enviado desde mi ONEPLUS A5000 mediante Tapatalk
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] m00nlighter:
Besides Lawnchair Launcher suggested above, you can also try Rootless Pixel Launcher and Customized Pixel Launcher (my favorite). RPL 3.7 has integrated Google Feed support. Higher versions of RPL and CPL support Google Feed too—but you'll have to download and install separate plugins to enable this feature.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ct5320:
Thanks m00nlighter. I actually have used the Rootless Pixel launcher in the past and I prefer that (it's fairly minimal which is what I am looking for). But the bridge plugin required for the swipe right google feed won't install if the original pixel launcher is already installed. I tried the others and liked lawnchair but just couldn't get it quite right. So I ended up removing the original pixel launcher from the gapps package (wasn't sure if this would work but gave it a shot) and then re-flashed, and after that I was able to install the Rootless launcher along with the bridge and I am good to go. Loving it

I installed the Pie build on my deb and it runs pretty well. No crashes so far and it does deep sleep (which it did not with LOS 16.0). Although, I still have 4x the standby drain (= 1%/hour) compared to LOS 14.1. I have airplane mode on (so, SIM card is not doing anything) and WiFi on.

Pie build on my Wifi N7 is overall doing well. Auto rotation is not working properly though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Clamor:
[MENTION=4942571]sidamos77[/MENTION] you shouldn't compare different Android versions in battery drain, it isn't objective.

[MENTION=6936389]tinyturtles[/MENTION] might be a hardware issue. Sensors work as intended. Try to check with a testing app.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Nomad1600:
Not the ROM, likely the hardware. With the tablet off, trying pushing down on the back over the x in Nexus logo. Then turn on the tablet. Seems to fix loose connections in the tablet. Also make sure the autorotation is on.

Also - the build is randomly shutting off a few times per day (once to three times, as far as I have noticed). But when I am using the tablet, pie build is fantastic.

why this rom belong to NEXUS 7 (2013) ORIGINAL ANDROID DEVELOPMENT not Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] abhifx:
Because it is an original development rom and not a derived rom from from existing device / vendor trees.

[MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION] : I've installed Android 8.1 on my flo in February and it brought my Nexus 7 back to life - thank you very very much!

@ all: I've got two questions - the answers might be obvious, but as I do nat have to much experience with ROM's etc. I'd like to be sure before I'm doing anythning stupid:

1) if I install the April version of Android 8.1 all settings, accounts etc. will be lost and I have to start setting up everything again from scratch and just the same if I decide to switch to Pie, right?

2) I have the chance to get an Nexus 7 deb, running on stock rom, which shows some problems with the digitizer (does not accept input an freezes for some seconds sometimes) and the microphine isn't working - will the update of any of your Unlagcy Rom's fix this issues?

Kind regards from Hamburg/Germany,

Tutur
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] dealpapa1:
thanks. I might just stay with this rom.:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
1. You can dirty flash April 8.1 over February 8.1 if you want. Updating to pie however requires repartitioning which will wipe everything.

2. Sounds like hardware issues. ROM not likely to fix that. Take the device apart and reseat all the connections. See if that helps.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] tutur:
Thank you very much!

How do I do a "dirty flash"???

And if it's a hardware issue with the deb I won't buy the other Nexus ...

Tutur
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] daitalos:

I'll give it a try.

And the world won't stop turning if I have to install everything again :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] daitalos:
If you update, better re install the gapps package (newer build zip + gapps)

before flashing you can read post #3 in OP by [MENTION=2633638]Ziyan[/MENTION]

I didn't use Gapps at all for the change from stock ROM to Android 8.1., I had installed a Play Store APK via USB stick and installed the few Google Apps I use from scratch. :)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] MACscr:
I can’t get any kernel that supposedly supports OTG Charging to work in a stable way with unlegacy. Elementax isn’t stable with 8.1 and loses otg hating often. and glitch with 7.1 won’t even boot after install. Unlegacy is awesome, but I need a stable otg charging kernel for it. :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Clamor:
[MENTION=2230316]MACscr[/MENTION] well, I can only propose to take part in this development. Currently I'm busy with my other devices, flo/deb are stable for daily use and don't need any big improvements.

You may try to build kernel from UA source and implement changes you need. In that case you will be free to choose any ROM you wan't since you have kernel patches and can add kernel features you need.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] MACscr:
Hope it didn’t sound like I was trying to complain. I was just looking for options.Figured some other users might be using custom kernels as well that meet my needs with unlegacy
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Clamor:
[MENTION=2230316]MACscr[/MENTION] no offense to you from my side as well. This feature is not included in AOSP kernel and, I'm pretty sure, is just a bunch of hacks. Since currently we have no time for implementing them correctly, you may try yourself as a developer. This is why I started contribute into development, it allows to get things that need you (actual contributor/developer). Plus building a kernel is much more simple than a whole rom.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] alexandero11:
Thanks for your hard work! Hoping for some more 8.1 security patch backports, but I understand if that doesn't happen since you are focused on Pie. Currently though, Pie is a bit too much for our beloved N7 as far as daily use goes.

thanks for update 0519 guys,really nice work!

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] alexandero11:
Remember when Android catered to power users and regular users alike? Seems like that is definitely changing.

If anyone has any suggestions for any Xposed modules or anything that can bring back a functional app switcher, then let me know. I want to be able to use pie but the app switcher is basically unusable. I don't know how there hasn't been a bigger outcry about this. Obviously not the fault of any ROM devs here.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Phanty:
So I installed the 0519 Pie build 2 days ago, and I haven't experienced the app switcher issues with my setup. I'm not a developer, so all I can do is describe my setup to you and once you get something working you can tweak it yourself to your liking.

In my experience, Pie ROMs in general have Quickstep tied to the app switcher. In this Pie ROM, Pixel Launcher and Quickstep seem to be broken for me. To get around this, I installed the Magisk module Quickswitch and Lawnchair V2. Then I switched Lawnchair V2 to be my App Switcher.

I just did a quick search, and if that doesn't work for you and you want to use Lawnchair as your launcher, there seems to be a switcher made specifically for Lawnchair here

Finally, I didn't actually like Lawnchair as my launcher (app drawer had awkward scrolling with my low number of apps, I'm a bit OCD) so I switched my launcher to Taskbar. Everything appears to be working great, my app switcher works fine, and my launcher is usable/looks nice. Then again, I've been using for 2 days, so YMMV. Hope this helps or at least gets you on the right track :)

I'd like to update the ROM... do I simply do a clean wipe (wipe Dalvic, cache, data, and system) and then flash the new version of the ROM and appropriate Gapps? Are the new versions stable with dirty flashing? Or do I need to do something to to re-partition again? Many thanks... both for answering my question and for the continued support of Flo.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Clamor:
[MENTION=4747257]Nomad1600[/MENTION] you need just to flash new build and gapps over current and make wipe of cache and dalvic (wipe is optional). And that is all. Repartition is thing that can't be changed by flashing ROMs.
