Thanks for responding, I understand :good:

Does deb only getting a new build, or flo to?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] janos.sarkezi:
never mind ... i figured it out, thx to google ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Both:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jmsgomes:
Hi! First of all - Great job on putting this together! I love the new life your ROM has given to my Nexus 7.

One hiccup I have encountered though (not sure if this is resolvable or if this is a yet-to-be-mentioned known issue or if I'm just too ignorant to find/complete the steps needed):

When I go to Google Play Store > Settings > Play Protect certification, it shows "Device is not certified" (which prevents installing some apps like Netflix). I has hoping that following the steps you gave above (including Magisk) would solve this, but that was not the case for me.

What I've done:

Repartitioned (using flo-deb_clamor_repartition.zip, per REPARTITION thread)

Apply twrp-3.3.1-1_UA-flo.img per REPARTITION thread (had to unlock the bootloader):

fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-1_UA-flo.img
fastboot oem lock

Follow the steps you gave above.

Sign in with my Google account and check the Play Protect certification

(I've been through the process twice with same outcome.)

Sorry if this is a n00b issue (I have not had experience with Magisk) - can you help me figure out what's going on here?

Additional data:

This is on a Nexus 7 2013 flo with 16GB.

Build number: QQ1B.200105.004 PixelExperience_flo-10.0-20200123-2256-UNOFFICIAL

Hey I just wanted to thank you for your hard work I got this installed tonight and it has brought new life back to my Nexus 7 I am extremely happy thank you!

Just two small questions/requests.

Can I remove the date from the home screen? I have a weather app/widget that has the date already and it's taking up screen space.

Also can I remove the Google search bar?

Thank you very much again for all your hard work!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] maj_o:
Thank You!

This rom is great!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Stef...:
Hello,

I can't root my device.

I try with recovery.

Magisk 20.3

I restart my device and it does not boot.

Please help me.

Thanks.

Sorry for my bad english
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] luckywang95:
hope the deb version is coming real soon. Currently using the lineageOS 17.1 but saw lots of comments say this is the best ROM. Cant wait to test this out.

Just curious what will happen if i flash flo on deb? Anyone tried this before?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Most likely only issue will be that you lose lte and cellular features but wifi and everything else should work properly as the only difference between deb and flo is the cellular addition so hardware wise its the same. Updater script might need editing though so if you want you can unzip the rom and open the updater script file and remove that assert getprop line if twrp won't let you flash the flo build on your deb:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jhford:
So, does this mean that the deb version will not have cellular connectivity? If so, why have a deb?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] luckywang95:
i dont mind losing the LTE but im afraid of hard bricking it... i do saw in some forum saying not recommended and it may brick the device... currently using your 9.0 rom. much snappier than lineage 17.1. nice rom. love it! :):) I think i will stick to it until you release the 10.0 ROM for deb. the only thing i miss in 10.0 is the dark mode. feels weird for not having dark mode for gmail.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
No you misunderstood the other person wanted to flash the flo build (Wifi Only) on his deb, if i make a deb build and you flash it on your deb then you should be able to get cellular connectivity but if you flash the flo build on your deb you will lose those features because it doesn't have the files built into the rom to make cell connectivity work so if you need those i would prefer you to wait until i can release a updated deb build. Hope this helps.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jhford:
Of course I understand that. The words "if I make a deb build," however, are a bit depressing. ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Don't be depressed i promise you within the next couple of days or maybe tomorrow i promise i will at least try to make a deb build for you and everyone for pixel experience now that i am not working due to the corona virus. Cheers:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Please send me a pm here i will try to help you out best i can.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Flashing a rom wont hard brick your tablet it will only soft brick it so you shouldn't have to worry. You can always go back into twrp and flash another rom or restore your backup. You can buy a usb otg so you can backup your rom to a flash drive if you dont have enough internal storage space. Cheers!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jhford:
Great. Stay well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] alteredNate:
Pie or Q?

I'm just about to dive into upgrading my flo from the stock 6 rooted build that I've been running for the last 4 years.

With the huge amount of great ROMs that I've found, I've decided that I'd like to go with the Pixel Experience.

I'm just curious if anyone has an opinion on whether I should go with the Pie or Q build? Aside from app compatibility in Q, anything else to take into consideration?

Any recommendation would be great (even if it's to say that I should go with a different ROM) :p

And thanks for all the hard work that goes into these ROMs, I can't wait to be able to appreciate it! :laugh:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] lyushiK:
Is this warning relevant now?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
yes still don't flash gapps but i would not flash the april builds for flo i just posted chrome is still not working in those builds. I am working on the new builds that will have chrome fixed and it wil hopefully be up tonight.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] moviefirst:
:good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Stef...:
Hello,

flashed magisk 20.4,

devise rooted.

Thanks for your work.

:svetius:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Hello there everyone i want to thank you all for your kind words and patience waiting for me to release my roms and updates. You all motivate me and make me so happy and i am glad to be making roms for ya'll again. Two new builds for PE Q flo have been posted. You will need to wipe everything except internal storage with this one because i had to merge the opengapps files into the ROM instead of the PE gapps. So sorry dirty flashing the new PE Q 15th build is highly not recommended. Chrome and setup wizard is now fixed and you won't get any more force closes and when you first boot you will see the setup wizard now. Also you pretty much have all the google apps you need in the ROM except for google calendar, google photos, gmail, and google keyboard. You can download those from the play store. I also included simple keyboard as well as the aosp keyboard. You also get April 2020 security patches. Everything should be working fine as i tested everything and they are working for me. If you can't get deep sleep to work under location in setting turn both wifi and bluetooth scanning off. This worked for me my tablet goes into deep sleep just fine. The deb PE Q builds have just finished building but i still have to modify it to make it work perfectly however i will still need you guys to test and report if everything is working like lte or cell connectivity as i don't have a deb device to test. I need this done before i can make that thread for deb. Remember don't flash gapps and do a full clean flash and report back for both flo and deb. Cheers and happy 2020!

Edit: Chrome issue is still present as of right now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] someguykenadams:
I recently resized and wiped the partitions and rebooted prior to flashing the ROM from the 14th and the 15th. It's stuck on the boot screen for 10-15 minutes and I don't know if something got messed up or if it takes a while. The Internal storage cannot get wiped for some reason using TWRP 3.3.1-1, but after redoing the TWRP and going back to TWRP 3.3.1-1 and not formatting/wiping the Internal storage, it's still stuck at the Google logo and still loading.

Nexus 7 2013 32GB flo (Wi-Fi) and installed from USB-OTG (the zip file was correct, but I should probably redownload it). I checked the MD5 hash and they match by typing in certutil -hashfile filename.zip MD5 and comparing the hash in the command prompt to the one in the site and they match.

Pushed the file via ADB and got it installed, but still not getting past the loading screen.

Flashed another ROM onto it to get all of the directories in /sdcard back and didn't wipe the internal storage this time. I'll update in a while and see what happens.

Still doing the same thing. Am I doing something wrong?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] oruiz77008:
chrome force close

Just flashed the new build. Loving having the pixel experience on my old nexus 7. Everything seems to be working great except chrome. I cant have it open for more than a couple minutes before it force closes. Is there anything i could be missing? Love the rom thanks for your hard work!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Yeah that's wierd chrome was working for me earlier but now its force closing for me. I will look into the issue and maybe [MENTION=5480152]followmsi[/MENTION] can also help me with this issue and look into it.

I think i found the fix though but i will test it first but for now i will edit the OP.

Cheers:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
You probably didn't resize your system correctly i would pm clamor or write a message on his resize system thread and see if he can help you because i honestly don't know what really went wrong with your setup and i don't know how to fix that at the moment. Sorry i hope i helped in some way.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] someguykenadams:
The partitions got resized correctly and the TWRP version is 3.1.1-1 UA. The only issue was the TWRP app wanted to get installed, so after selecting do not install, it booted up all the way and restoring the backup I made 2 days ago. Didn't realize that can cause an issue with the ROM setup by sliding to install the TWRP app, but all is well now. Going to install the Magisk root and the manager. Looks really good so far. Had slight issues with the network connection and getting the apps and stuff back on my tablet from the backup, but I got that all sorted now (Google Play services said the SMS was not allowed for the app, which was odd, but after denying and allowing the SMS for Play services and stopping the service to get it to start again, it works).

Ran SafetyNet and it failed at 2 spots:

Basic integrity

CTS profile match

And Netflix cannot be found due to the failed SafetyNet features, plus, when I reboot, the lock screen doesn't unlock after I enter my PIN. Not sure if that's a common bug or not, but I haven't had issues with Chrome yet. Other than that, the ROM is pretty good and the interface is really neat.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Curtis7990:
Amazing work on this ROM man, it's pretty fast compared to other Q based ROMs.

Any way to completely uninstall Nova Launcher, I don't use it and the icon in the drawer bother me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] oruiz77008:
Dude, you totally rule! this rom has been great. I pulled it off the charger at %100 almost 24 hours ago and im still on %57! Light to moderate use. Streaming podcasts and connected to bluetooth most of the time. Again, Great work.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] LisardoSc:
It cannot be disabled directly from the settings. I have root, I installed Root Uninstaller (Play Store) and managed to disable it with that app.

I don't know if it can be uninstalled with Debloater (Magisk Module).
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] glorenzo7mm:
Thank you very much for this rom it's wonderful I'm really enjoying it only issue I run into its location services is not recognized by certain applications.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Paloris:
Been playing around with this ROM today and it's been amazing so far! Thank you very much!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
You can delete it using twrp recovery file manager. Just mount system and go to system app and then you can see and delete the nova folder. Then wipe dalvik cache.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jhford:
Are you having trouble with the deb version?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] moviefirst:
Hi dev, just a feedback on the latest Flo build. I am very satisfied with it. The apps open quickly and smoothly and the battery also lasts a long time, even in standby almost to no drain. I want to thank you for your hard work and commitment.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] Venkat_170599:
Error:7 when installing the rom for me on TWRP 3.3.1.0 on my Nexus 7 2013 Wifi model! Help?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] inku79:
Hey, nice ROM. Dusted off my Nexus and thought ill make it into a smart screen. This is the first android 10 ROM that I tried and i'm very satisfied. This thing is faster than a budget tablet I have from last year. Everything that needs to work is working. Would like to see an option to overclock though, would like to have it a bit snappier. Tried some CPU apps but does not seem to work. Guessing the kernel does not support it. If you would add it, would be much appreciated.

Thanks for supporting our beloved Nexus 7
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
try reflashing latest stock firmware to your device then repartition and then try flashing rom again.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
New ROM coming to both flo and deb:)

It's ViperOS Nougat and it should be available in the next coming days or so i have been really busy with working full time at mcdonalds and when i come home i support my family first and then i pass out from being tired and i am still struggling somewhat with managing my mental health so i apologize for not getting the deb pixel experience q build out and more roms out hopefully i can get it up in the next few days but i will eventually get it uploaded:) I apologize deeply to everyone. Stay safe during these crazy time and i wish everyone the best:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:

I apologize for bothering you. I didn't notice your previous post before. Take your time. Be well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
You don't have to apologize but thank you for understanding i just wrote that previous post like 10 mins ago so you haven't missed it i just quoted you to make sure you were able to see it. Were cool my friend thank you for your kind words and i will try to stay well:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jhford:
I really appreciate and admire your work. You're keeping my 3 debs going. I do have one daunting problem though and I've posted messages about this all over XDA without a meaningful response. My debs seem to soft reboot frequently. Usually it's while browsing. The display will slowly go black, the lockscreen will slowly emerge, and I have to login all over again, and then it will occur again later. I tried Ripee's latest LOS and it behaves somewhat differently. The lockscreen will not accept my pin and the device reboots, and/or I have to re-press the power button to reload the lockscreen, and re-enter my pin. Although I haven't tried it, I think if I reverted to stock these things wouldn't happen. All devices have been Clamor repartitioned. Any ideas?

Thanks again
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] dave457:
Installed the ROM fine (flo) but even though Location Services is on, Google Maps and GPS Test say its off

Anyone else notice this?

Any fix?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] moj2911:
Hey man, absolutely no need to apologise or feel guilty about anything. This should not be priority for you, please focus on yourself first. We really appreciate your efforts and your selflessness, you've done a great job with bringing the latest android version to a 7 year old tablet. Don't let this feel like a burden, do whatever is easiest for you. If it requires taking a break from rom building for a while then please take a break, your health and your family are more important than anything. We're all here to support you. Stay safe my friend. God bless.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] clarkgable:
Thanks to the OP for this ROM and your continuous hard work and support. A question out of interest - is face unlock included with this build?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] rlq1667:
hello, there must be something I'm missing. I have tried to install this and any other 9.0+ roms and always get that the tablet shuts down by itself after a few minutes, doesn't happen with 8.0 and below. Any hel is appreciated. Thanks to the developer for keeping our Nexus alive.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] juanizzo:
I was using unnoficial Lineage OS on Android 10 and changed to PE. Far better experience overall, it seems to be working OK on a 7 year hardware!

Kudos to developer!

[MENTION=5653319]JT1510365[/MENTION]

Great job! This ROM is amazingly smooth and stable, I'm totally happy with it.

Just a few things I've noticed are:

- Unable to connect to hidden WIFI networks (hidden SSID). [after manual setting, displays "not in range" error.]

- There is two clock apps installed.

- Unable to uninstall Nova launcher, even using root uninstaller.

Thank you so much.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] glostermeteor:
Just switched to this ROM from Lineage 17.1 and it is much smoother, less lag. Only problem I am experiencing is Location services dont seem to work for apps, neither Google Maps nor Find My Device can utilise Location. Could this be fixed in a future update?

Other than that it seems great!!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] musicmannetje:
Yes, I have that too.. I use my Nexus exclusively as a satnav in my car, so this build, as good as it is, is completely useless for me. In fact, all of these Android 10 builds don't do GPS.

Back in the days of Android 4 on these cheap crappy chinese phones, GPS was already an issue. It seems some problems are here to stay.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jotam:
Hello,

I'm really enjoying this ROM, but unfortunately I can't activate GPS in the TomTom application.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Try changing location settings to high accuracy from the location quick setting toggle that's the only way to activate it I think:)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] jotam:
Hello JT1510365,

Thank you. Everything is working as expected.

Once again, thank you very much for your effort involved in this project.

I really like this ROM; it is very light and fast. Regards.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] TuxedoBlack:
Great work on this ROM mate! Its awesome and makes my Nexus 7 2013 fun again.

Just for fun, I have installed and tested with all versions of Chrome available on Play Store. All crash in about 1 min or so. Worse if you scroll fast or move too quickly in the browser. (Chrome Dev, Beta etc etc). Hope this helps. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
Yeah i will have to get with followmsi to see if there is anything we can do to get chrome working on android Q for flo. I don't know if it works on his roms but i am using the same sources as him so that's wierd:(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] JT1510365:
just use twrp recovery or root explorer file manager from the play store

[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] shaunoleary:
Loving this ROM! If you're stuck at trying to restore a backup, this may help.

G'day from Australia!

I installed this ROM the other day and it looks so smooth. I found sometimes running other versions of Chrome (eg Chrome Canary) can help instead of straight Chrome. I also used Brave browser and it worked perfectly with this ROM.

I had reset the ROM and reinstalled it the other day for whatever reason. It freezes when trying to restore a device backup (from the same Android version) on the "Just a sec..." screen after selecting the backup I want to restore - stays there for ages. Not sure what is causing that. It didn't happen the first time I installed the ROM. It does it each time, selecting different backups doesn't change it.

I found a possible workaround, hoping this may help anyone else who is having this same issue. I get a notification that Google Play Services needs SMS access to work (it's a tablet, not a phone, but hey ... ). I checked the permissions for Google Play Services, and SMS was already granted. So I thought - okay ...

Tried denying the permission, and then granting it again. Go back to the setup, selected my backup, and away it goes and restores it! :)

Hoping this tip helps anyone else. This ROM is great, thank you for your hard work on this. It is awesome! A pity about Chrome, but some of the alternatives like Brave make a usable workaround for the time being.

Cheers!

Hi just a quick message to say thanks for this ROM. Working superbly. Importantly the batter life is great too.

Hi, where is this mode in Android 10, I don't seem to have that option in the Location settings.

Thanks for this ROM though as compared to Lineage 16.0 it seems very slick.

Thank you!

with TWRP :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] QUEDRO:
This is awesome work, thanks! I haven't touched my N7 2013 in years.

I did repart and flashed TWRP UA.

I flashed the zip ROM but it gets stuck at G logo. I will try again to wipe all and flash again.

Update:

Flashed again, chose not to install TWRP app at prompt. Success!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Android Development] mikemod:
Hi, just recharged my Nexus 7 , after lying in a drawer for the last 3 years and managed to flash this first time, excellent work.

The only issue I am having is I have no soft keys, am I doing something stupid !!

Hello, I was using Lineage 17.1 but I felt that the battery was draining quickly, so I decided to install your PE Q rom, but when I try to load for the first time after installing it stays in the bootloop, I suppose because my device is deb, So I installed PE Pie, and everything works great, I feel it more stable and the battery lasts longer, without underestimating the work of the other developers.For the comments I have read I am eager to test your Q rom.

Thank you for your great selfless work bro. Sorry if there is a misspelling, please use the google translator.
