[ROM] Fully working AOSP 6.0 for grouper - Nexus 7 Android Development

finished this one 4am this morning, and fell asleep before I could post, so here you go:
Writeup, details, etc all here:
http://dmitry.gr/index.php?r=06. Thoughts&proj=04. Android M on Grouper
What works: selinux, camera, NFC, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth
No dirty patches in /platform, no dirty hacks
Lots of cool hacks though. Read up
This is for WiFi devices only (for now)
use latest public bootloader
and i suggest a data wipe - i do not support any conflicts with existing data - selinux policies changed in ways that might affect /data, so having things in /data can affect things like GPS adversely

Awesome! Do we need to update radio/bootloader first?

TWRP package fixed, uploaded

Is the 'Doze' functionality of Marshmallow working?

It is for me

what Gapps did you end up using? I've flashed multiple packages and it all leads to Setup Wizard problems

Yeah, rom flash works, but stuck with no playstore. Also tried flashing supersu and got a bootloop. Also tried to install an apk from Explorer and wouldn't install. I know this is real really so I'm sure things will get added. But what's here feels much faster and smooth! 6 on a 7, wow!
Edit: I downloaded these "mini" and they seem to be installing OK. http://androiding.how/android-6-0-marshmallow-gapps/
Got me to set up screen!

After fighting a bit, the ROM started and I'm restoring my apps from playstore, when I chose the restore point in the wizard, this failed, then select "New device" to continue, anyway restoration began. After finishing the wizard i modified play services permissions to stop FCs.
These were my steps:
1 Wipe Data/System/Cache/Dalvik
2 Flash ROM
3 Flash BETA-SuperSU-v2.52
4 Flash benzo-gapps-M-20151011-signed-chroma-r3
5 Wipe Data/Cache/Dalvik
6 Reboot

Seriously, this is quick and brilliant work. Congrats to all of you who put in the hours and stress. This.....is why I only use Nexus devices. Your efforts are truly appreciated. Best of luck as you continue to further this project.

Glad to help
I am not one of them people who make ROMs all the time. I just wanted to do all the actually hard work of the port and offer specific directions to them, so they can support M on this crop of nexus devices

I'm not getting su 2.52 to boot. Everything w/o root is great!

See Nexus 4/10 forums where people already figured it out

My Nexus 7 has been revived... 5.1.1 was unbearably slow. I'm very impressed. Great work!

M on N7
Happy to see that people still supports and share their work for the N7 - big thanks :good:
Now it's exciting to see if the N7 will be able to handle Android M for more than a day or two before slowing down :fingers-crossed:

I'll try this out
How does this differ from [WIP][ROM][6.0] Nexus 7 Marshmallow - Android 6.0?

Hello Guys! From where to download the file for grouper.Thank You!

Thanks a lot for your contribution.

[ROM][CM10] Unofficial CyanogenMod 10 Nightlies Topic

I have not seen a thread for CM10 yet. I know Steve has posted for some other devices, but not for the N7, so I figure might as well have one until a maintainer starts one. I am not a developer or a part of the CM team, I just feel a need for a thread for people to post questions, comments, answers, etc for this ROM.

Has anyone had any soft-reboots? I have one occasionally (happened twice now) I was never near a computer so I couldn't pull a logcat.
On 9/6 with no problems. Thanks for the thread!

No soft reboots here. Everything working fine.
If anyone is interested in getting the tablet UI then you should check out this patch:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31244515&postcount=534
Running 09/07 no reboots here. Must have been a bug with the build I was on, I stayed at the second nightly for a while
Is it just me or did they take the nightlies off ROM manager?
Had a soft reboot some nightlies ago, that's all.
The only annoying bug I found is with the wifi. If I set it to never sleep, the battery drains relatively fast. If I set it to sleep when the screen is turned off, sometimes when I turn back on the screen the wifi "hangs" in "searching for wifi networks". The only solution then is reboot.
Other than that, it's been great.
cm-10-20120909-EXPERIMENTAL-grouper-burnsra.zip is unbootable for me, it just loads CM bootanimation forever. I can't get into recovery to restore backup either :/ probably have to get on a computer with ADB.
edit: nvm just got into recovery. We're good. Don't try running 09/09 people!
Any idea why on any cm10 builds my instant uploads/picasa web albums don't show up in my gallery?
0909 is bootable, but from what I can tell it needs a full data wipe before it'll boot properly. Not sure what got changed, but it's experimental for sure!

thats what i was wondering. I think the trebuchet port has to be finished, as I don't see an option for transition animations. Temporary workaround is to use a different launcher, although I would prefer not, so I wait for it to be finished

There's even a newer one than that.
http://goo.im/devs/projectfnv/gapps/0831
There is a PicSync version and a non-PicSync version. As of now, you have to chose between PicSync (Picasa Web Albums) and the CM customized camera. Obviously, on the Nexus 7, we're not missing out on much by foregoing the CM camera.
There's more info about the updated gapps packages here:

Damnit Jeep, for a second I thought I was browsing in the HOX forums
Use the updated GApps with Pic Sync. I've had zero problems with those compared to the problems with the older Gapps.

Can't Update nexus 5 past 4.4.3

I Need help updating my nexus 5 to 4.4.4. I touched the notification notifing me of the update and it switched to the twrp recovery screen and failed. I then switched back to stock recovery. Now it keeps saying my system is up to date. Any suggestions?
it failed because you are not running 100% stock rom/kernel.

fastboot.
There has to be a better way besides me doing a fastboot or restore to factory. There is an app or script I remember having to cleardata/clear cache . I have too much important data that I can't seem to back up.

Oh right. So to be clear you don't want to be updated / rooted / recovery ?
Because our assumption was that you did want those things and that's the advice we've been giving
App reset? No idea, they changed how it works.
If you use search, there are other threads discussing that. Probably get this one locked
Edit. Oh so you mean the reset that forces OTA updates to be checked again? That was always considered a bad idea and it still won't help your issue of your ROM is modified.
If you want root, what I said is the best way bar none. If you want stock unrooted, fastboot flash system.img to clean up your ROM.

Android 5 Nexus 5 OTA UK Release

Is there anyone from the UK who has had the OTA update for their Nexus 5?
I keep checking but it says I'm up to date.
I haven't modified anything, apart from activating the developer options.

If you are that bothered you could just flash the factory images, this is XDA after all ? I flashed them on my UK N5 as soon as they came out
Hi. Yes I know that, but there has been some issues with doing it that way, although I'm tempted I'm not 100% confident. Give me a Windows / Linux PC / Laptop / Server any day Lol

Here is an idiot proof guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDfZXMJfSFQ, its not that hard. Unlock the bootloader first before you can do this.

Even easier way to flash it should you choose to if you get bored waiting for the ota, is to use this.

I updated my fathers Nexus 5 (locked boot loader, etc) manually. Just grab the OTA zip and adb sideload it through the stock recovery. No data was harmed during this update process.
I'm in uk, couldn't be bothered waiting so even with my crap knowledge of well pretty much anything, I side loaded the ota and didn't lose any data and to be honest it was pretty easy to do
If you're still locked, sideload the ota file. If unlocked flash the factory image. There's no point waiting IMO
I sideload the ota without any problems. The only thing I would say is that you have to be patient as some steps take longer than you might expect: wiping the cache took about 20 minutes for some reason on my nexus 5 but only a couple of seconds on my nexus 7. Be patient at each stage and it's a painless upgrade.

BBM crashing once a day

I'm wondering if anyone can take a look at the logcat and see what could be the problem with bbm. Been crashing once a day I'm the the latest version of Optipop with PA gaaps (nano), code blue kernel, and data and cache is f2fs. pastebin.com/TRVqj72w please and thanks

Would I be able to run stock on secondary? And I have data and cache partions in f2fs, does that matter for Multirom?? And can i run stock with f2fs partions as mentioned?? Thanks
BBM sucks it drains battery like crazy, remains active all the time for no reason, and that notification is plain annoying, but, maybe check by greenify

IDK, it was just a suggestion to quickly see. If you have F2FS it may not happen.
I used BBM everyday on my N5 since it was released and never had a single issue, it never crashed or froze on me. I am using it now on my Moto X and it is working the same way, only problem I have now is that Moto display will not show a BBM notification on my lock screen like it does for everything else.

It seems fine by me. Doesn't notice the battery drain that much But then I would have to try without it to see how much it will improve.
It could be the memory leak issue affecting random apps. I haven't found anything yet to confirm this, but I have been restarting my phone about once and day and will keep trying to see if that helps. Otherwise, thanks for the suggestions and help
