Having lots of problems with my Nexus 7 - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure if anyone else is having my problems. I'm running stock 4.1.1 with this Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831780 (I'm not even sure if that matters). My nexus 7 isn't nearly as fast as when I first had it. Its gotten slower. I'm having issues with multiple games randomly freezing my entire Nexus 7. Sometimes I have to hold down the power button for 20 seconds because it won't respond at all. Also, whenever I reboot it says "Android is upgrading..." then at the bottom it says "Starting apps" for a few seconds. I've had this problem for awhile now. I've tried clearing the Dalvik Cache, removing memory/storage, defragmentation, etc. I'm not sure why it is acting like this. Please help. Thank you!

Lol you don't know if it matters that you're using the elite kernel? Maybe you shouldn't be flashing kernels quite yet bud. Go back to stock kernel.

OK ill see if that helps, although I think the issues were happening even before I flashed it. How do I go about returning the the stock kernel?

backup all your stuff to your PC, and load the factory rom and it will wipe everything clean including your SD. After trying a few roms I noticed there are some hidden craps that can't be seen by any file explorer and the only way to clear them off is flashing back to stock.

Hi,
Elite Kernel works pretty good. But maybe it has too much overclocked GPU for your device, yeah some device can't hold as much performance then others. Try flashing back the stock rom and see if it works

You really shouldn't game on 1.8ghz the elite offers unless you are using ice under your N7. The elite is not really for daily use just benching and seeing how far one can go. Imo pull the core speed down to 1.5 / 1.3ghz to see if your games become stable. Also try the motley kernel build 218 with the 520 gpu for everyday use. Cache whipping should only be done if your installing different roms and completely different kernels. the elite kernel is a motley build so no wipe is needed.
Cheers

I think you guys are confused as to which one I'm running. I'm using the one on the second post where the max speed is 1.5GHz.

The 1.5 extreme under volt? Actually that kernel flat out boot looped my N7 and the only way to get out of it was connecting the N7 to the pc. Ditch that kernel. Use the 1.8 / 650gpu pinkfix that kernel is stable at all core speeds for me. Imo just set the clock speed to 1.3 to reduce heat. The 650gpu setting at 1.3 / interactive / cfq will still give you 66fps on nena2. My best score is 71 at 1.8. I the heat build up for gaming is just to much.
Always clear data on setcpu and sys tuner pro when jumping kernels.
Concerning lag does power off then back on fix it for a short time? If so you might want to return it. Asus really dropped the ball on the early N7 runs. I love "Googles" N7 but I'll never buy another Asus product. Hopefully Google picks a better Manufacturer next time.

Ok. Do I flash this one: https://rapidshare.com/files/1034477848/Clemsyn1.8GPU650.zip or the pinkfix: https://rapidshare.com/files/223841402/Clemsyn1.8GPU650Pinkfix.zip?

Pinkfix. Run your games at 1.3 to see if their stable. Gameloft works best at 1.4 / 1.5 just watch the heat to hot and it will start to lag. THD games 1.3 TOPS their optimized and don't need the oc. Once your done messing with the elite motley build 218 520 gpu is a better everyday kernel for gaming. Have fun and always have a few different kernels in your download folder in case something goes wrong and you need to use recovery from the pc.

How much free space do you have on your device? It's been found that the Nexus 7 lags pretty bad when you're running extremely low on space. Try freeing up a couple gigs and see if that improves things.
Also, following Jay's Recipe for Buttery Goodness will help greatly speed up your device.
Do you have your dalvik cache integrated into the ROM with Titanium Backup? That's one way to cause the "Android is upgrading..." to appear on every boot.

Freezing

Did a search and found a couple of different threads, but no solutions.
I am running MIUI 2.4.6 and have been for several months with absolutely no problems. Two days ago, I downloaded some new themes for my wife who is going to take over my Nook after my Nexus 7 arrives.
Anyway, I installed one to see how it looked and the lockscreen was one that required a full screen swipe instead of just pulling down. Well, a full screen swipe will not work on a tablet. Was unable to unlock so I went back to CWM and did a complete wipe, data, cache...everything.... and reinstalled the rom. That's when I started getting the freezing. Sometimes it freezes after 10 minutes and sometimes it will go longer. OK, thought I might have a bad flash, so I downloaded the zip again and did the wipe and re-flashed. Same freezing. I have tried fixing permissions. I have not installed any new apps or widgets that I wasn't using before.
Any ideas?
Try one more install of the rom. Do you use anything like a clock/weather widget? Those would really mess up my MIUI roms. Did you format data, system and cache before installing? Also, it's catch-22 with the themes. Some work, but more often than not, I would run into the problem where the lock screen wouldn't unlock and I would have to start all over.

I did all the wipes each time. No weather apps....as long as the themes show a circle, or slide, or the phone icon and the msg icon, then they are ok to use.
Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? Anyone? :laugh:
Oh well!
Was the previous install of the rom overclocked? Also, the V6 supercharger script may help you. It sure helped get rid off my freezes. Also, in Nook tweaks, if you are overclocking, you might want to raise the voltage of step 5 by 1 tick.

Was not overclocked. But I will try the overclock and see if that helps and if not I will try try the V6 Supercharger.
I just got a Nexus 7 and giving the Nook to my wife....just wanted her not to have any problems. And I guess if all else fails, I'll just take it back to stock
Here's some nook optimization advice I gave to another guy. Hope it helps:
Hephaestus_ said:
After a few mods, my nook is almost butter smooth. ;P Here's the things I did:
Installed latest opengl cm9 build by eyeballer.
Overclocked processor to 1.2ghz with ondemand governor for general use.
Made voltage tweak of 1 tick higher than stock on the highest processor stepping using nook tweaks.
Set highest stepping to 1.325ghz using nook tweaks.
Made high performance profile in setcpu that would only activate the 1.325 ghz when certain 3d games were opened using governor performance.
Blocked certain system apps/processes that would not be used by the nook such as the calling one to free up system ram using Gemini app manager.
Ran the v6 supercharger script to optimize system set to the max performance setting for 512hp.
Ran and turned on all other performance tweaks in the supercharger script.
Made a widget using script manager to autorun fastengineflush.sh from v6 supercharger that cleans clutter and fees up ram.
Switched launcher to adwlauncher ex to remove scroll lag between home screens.
And that is how you can have a buttery smooth experience on the nook. ;P
Best of luck,

What ROM you running??

Though I would create a thread to see which of the many great JB ROMS people are running and maybe we can crown a champion??
I'm using CleanROM and could not be happier.
Im running "BrickedMy****2.0" its the smoothest out and the battery life is just awesome.

What does it mean?
Could you explain the difference/meaning of each, please?
He means his Pad is in heaven or hell Just bricked.
I am running JB OC edition with last Untermensch Kernel.
I am on stock , but looking to for a rom , but none has me intrested at the moment.
I am not looking for new features on roms , i just want a smooth and stable rom , and everything else to be stock.
A bit like android revolution HD for Galaxy nexus.
Anyone know anything similar? Because on stock , launcher usually really slow , and performance wise for quad core it's just not there.
I'm running CM 10 M2.It runs smooth ‚but the camera records15fps videos.I hope they will fix it.CM did good job with this JB Rom

CleanRom
I've upgraded from stock JB to CleanRom 2.5. its night and day
I'm on CleanRom 2.5 also. Haven't tried much else though. I tried OC for a day, but wasn't able to get overclocked so I reverted back to CleanRom after a few failed attempts. I'm hoping we'll have an updated version of CleanRom soon (version 2.3 from the 700t forums)
Clean rom 2.5 its my first rom ever! on a android device (tf300 is my first android device) + untermensch kernel combined with and when i installed the clean rom i always can oc so u guys do something wrong. And i run the v6 script.
I am on CleanROM too, tried a few others but there were a few things I didn't like or had problems with.
Got no problem and can OC with CleanROM

hehe just came to the thread, nice timing.
No lag what so ever anywhere on this tablet now. I have made it lag by copying a movie, playing music and trying to browse the web. Pages lag a little bit but once they load its smooth and we all know that its the cheap internal card. I think its well worth it, i was using my brother TF300 that is stock and could not handle how slow it was.

Many thanks !
looks like i will be wiping my tablet and flashing it after all!
just remember to flash Unt kernel, latest is NOT in OP but one of the last pages.
I just installed JB overlock edition and it got better scores than CleanRom with unt's kernel :S for me.
Quadrant scores:
JB oc edition V2 (overclocked to 1.66ghz): total:6087 CPU: 15120 Mem: 3188 I/O: 9233 2D: 273 3D: 2622
CleanRom with unt's kernel (overclocked to 1.6 ghz): total:5735 CPU: 14144 Mem: 3890 I/O: 7592 2D: 309 3D: 2739
Hope I helped someone that can't decide what Rom he want's to install.
Why are there so many votes for the stock ROM? Is it that good? Seems like it's pretty easy to unlock the tablet and then load a custom ROM on. Any input would be appreciated.
boggles the mind don't it? I guess people are happy with Stock until they can use CM/AOKP
Very strange. Just loaded CleanROM. It's always tough to say what ROM to go with. CleanROM is nice, but I have to install the others to compare, I suppose. I wish there was a good pro/cons list of each ROM.

Some questions about ktmanta and other stuffszz

Zup everybody.
Im a new android user and im loving it. With Nexus 10 to be my first android device im very happy with it after i installed ktmanta Kernel.
although i had very litte knowlidge about what roms and kernel is/was i went for it anyways. It improved my experience alot, and everything is running real nice. Also gta vice city doesent lag at all. it lagged like hell before the kernal install.
Now i have few questions and i hope someone out there could help me with. ive seen a few threads on this forum and everyone seems to be nice unlike other forums (no names mentioned)
When i flashed (i think its called that way) the ktmanta kernel i knew that everything would dissapear, but im wondering now if there is a way to backup exact everything before loading a new rom or kernel?
also. when i play gta vice city i use min/max 1500/1500 on the cpu and it works really nice. the only problem is that i have to manually change it and after i have played the game i have to go back and change it to 200/1700 again.
can i somehow make an ikon that i push and the cpu go to 1500/1500 and if i push another icon it will go on the other setting? something like that?
Ive seen folks wright on forums that there is an app that can make your battery life better but never mention such app.
i have batterycalibr, is that the only one?
And the last question is, is there something you could recommend to a new android user (apps,widgets, specific roms, etc) ?
Im loving the android experience and im considering to sell my iphone 5 and buy a droid phone.
(please i apologize if my grammar or spelling isn't at the top)

1. Try using titanium backup to backup your app data and you can restore it once you flash a new ROM/kernel. Remember, only backup app data, NOT system data or you may result in bootloops.
2. Not 100% sure if you could use the KTweaker app or SetCPU to set profiles when you're gaming but you might want to look into that. That being said, you shouldn't have to set your min at 1500 to have fluid gameplay, or at least I don't think so and it will drain your battery much faster. IMO, check out the franco kernel if you want to have the smoothest gameplay with no tweaking necessary and no drops in framerate.
3. I really don't believe in all of that battery calibrator, juice defender, or any other app that claims to significantly increase battery life. However, if you are going to use the KTManta kernel, you can undervolt your device and get some pretty awesome battery life.
4. What kind of apps, widgets, etc. are you looking for? Find out what your style is and customize accordingly. That's the awesome thing about Android!
Hope this helped... :good:

Thanks alot mate. I payed for the Franco kernel and then downloaded a file and had to restart my tablet. I guess i did the process right.
Now gta runs really nice without me putting min/max at the same mhz
Can i delete the ktweakert now ?

Yep! You won't be needing it anymore. I'm glad everything worked out for you!

Having your cake and eating it too

Most of life is a choice between one or the other but with the Nexus 7 along with Root, Custom Recovery, cm10.2 unofficial, Faux Clock Kernel Control App and Jassy Release 5 Kernel it might just be possible to have both. Jassy has managed to put together a kernel that combines a 1.9 GHz over clock and a 487 MHz GPU over clock. With a global undervolt of -24 MV I managed to pull off stunning benchmarks, smooth lag free performance and incredible battery time. Just under 13 hours battery time in fact. I did this with a YouTube kung fu movie fest for about 12 and a half hours and a half hour of benchmarks and downloading a few apps. Remember if you game you can not expect this kind of battery performance but it does do great at that as well. I've attached some screenshots of my settings so you can reproduce these results if you would like.
Remember when you Root, ROM and Over clock you do it at your own risk and please thank the fine Developers who gave their time to make this kind of fantasy possible. I in no way had a hand in developing this software, I just took the time to do many benches and battery tests on many Roms and kernels then undervolted a bit.

So to replicate your results, we need to flash cyagen, and jassy release 5, and then adjust the settings to replicate yours, or does jassy's release already have some of those settings in it?
What other apps did you download?
Getting longer battery life and a faster tablet is quite attractive!
EDIT I just installed jassy r5, and my quadrant is only 5679.. is something wrong, or do I need to also do the tweaks you listed here first?
EDIT 2: I've set faux to the same setting now, but am still using cleanroom1.3, and the quadrant results are 6787

Sorry I never saw your posts. Never looked at the thread again. To replicate my results you would have to download cm10.2 and Jassy release 5 and faux kernel control app paid version and set exactly like in the screen shots. I have since made a few more refinements but nothing you couldn't play with yourself. Make sure you enable mpdecision. Make every screen look like mine.

Yep, I did duplicate them, but couldn't get quadrant scores anywhere near yours. (they were better though.. it might be a cleanroom issue).
I upgraded to Jassy rev 6, ran into issues, and then just reflashed the stock kernel.
I was hoping we'd see Jassy rev 6 lockup issues fixed, but its been a week now. I'm also read of a few misc cm issues, and I'e been waiting for them to clear up as well. Cleanrom isn't having any issues at all, so I've stuck with it for now.

Cleanrom will not bench as high. Its a stock based ROM. Truth is though once your this high your not gonna see a whole lot of improvement in daily performance unless you go looking for it. Cleanrom is one of the best Roms I've ever used and there is absolutely nothing wrong with sticking with it. I go back and forth between the 2 myself. As themes and tweaks come out for nexus 7 2013 you'll find cleanrom will get even better than it is now also. Wish someone would do a tablet ui lol.

I haven't had a single random reboot. Chrome works real well as long as you can change it from beta in lower left of xda page. I haven't overheated but I gotta tell you I'm no hardcore android gamer. Some angry birds from time to time or subway surfers lol. I have probably gamed for about an hour or so on these settings and not gone into a state of panic about temps though. Any longer than that or some other game and I couldn't say. in fact FOR me things are so smooth on this machine I had to order a new HP to tinker with lol. Seriously this is the best android machine I've owned. And buddy, I've had em all. I also use adaway so that may help with chrome as well.
Impressive scores man.
Yeah hesitant to jump to other roms myself at least at this time. Everything is so new finding a "good one" is hard to do at least yet. Though I've used CleanROM's on other devices I've had in the past and love them. Personally if CleanROM comes out with a 1.4 I might consider jumping into it.
Thanks for sharing! My only suggestion would be for you to recommend another kernel tuning app other than Faux's app. I'm just personally not a fan of someone who does nothing but kang, and even then still doesn't credit who he is kanging from. Too many hard working honest developers for me to support a faux developer (yes, pun intended. Maybe that's where the screen name came from?).
Just my $0.02.…

I have absolutely No interest in politics on my nexus 7 2013. if he did wrong, shame on him however I have tried each and every kernel control app on the market and reported my best results. I have yet to produce scores or battery life comparable even within 10% of fauxclock/Jassy R5 combo. I do not intend to do any research at all about whatever faux123 did or didn't do. I understand a personal grudge and respect your right to hold one. If your looking for something as close as you can get to his kernel control app try trickster. I didn't have a lot of success with it but you might find a combination that works close. If I were in the middle of whatever happened between faux123 and you or whoever I might have formulated an opinion. I'm not chiding you either. You brought an issue before me and I am simply stating I don't want involved as its in my humble opinion not my place or my fight, not to mention it appears it was already fought.
if I simply hated and didn't use a product based on someone else I don't know having a problem with that individual I wouldn't be able to buy anything, at all, anywhere, on earth, or in heaven, ever! If you tell me he harmed a baby and I see he was convicted of it in a trial of his peer's elected in a fair and balanced environment I will most certainly NOT have anything to do with him. But unproven or conflicting information, that may be due to personal interpretations is difficult for me to get involved in. Especially after the fact. And then there is the whole, if a man was punished for his crime do you continue to persecute him after he paid his dues thing.
Are there any deal breaking issues in CM? If not, switching does not bother me at all, and getting better all over performance is worth while.
I just don't want to spend more time tinkering with my tablet than actually using it.
What's your binning?
appreciate you sharing your jassy 5 set up with the fauxclock app. im on jassy 5 as well and have been running the setup that jassy posted but now im gonna try your set up. i just got one question about it: how is your sleep mode stand by time? i lose 1-2% in 8 hours

Are there any deal breaking issues in CM? If not, switching does not bother me at all, and getting better all over performance is worth while.
I just don't want to spend more time tinkering with my tablet than actually using it.

I personally would call the current cm build almost RC material. I have no problems with it at all.
My bin was 14/2 if I'm not mistaken.
I probably lose a bit less than that but can't say for certain as I constantly use it lmao. I do get exceptional screen on time really. There are some screen shots on previous page I think.
Cool. Might have to take the plunge. Do you have to wipe to install it? (I didn't have to wipe for cleanrom.)

You have to wipe on a first install.

[Q] Disappointed by 4.3 Performance

Hey,
Just wondering if its only me, I've tried PA 4.3 JSS and JWR, really choppy and slow.
So i restored the JWR still continues super choppy, even simply going through the pages of the app drawer lags, Antutu gets me 14k results where previously on 4.2.2 i got 22k, on games like Real Racing 3 i notice much lower FPS than on 4.2.2,
I've tried with stock kernel and Franco, with small improvements with Franco but still barely unusable.
Is this situation shared with any of you using 4.3? Will it get any better?
Thanks.

I think you are the only one with this problem. I am on latest PA 3.96 and its super smooth.. Won't comment on games as I dont play much but performance,battery wise PA + franco's kernel rocks..
try clean wipe..(factory reset wipe all except internal )
Also it matters if you flash JWR kernel on a JSS rom you will face such issues,this might be a problem in your case. :good:
Its not the kernels mismatch, that I'm sure as I am aware many problems could be originated by that.
I notice the difference mostly in games since its one of the things I most use the phone for, although in the menus and general usage it still feels choppy and not smooth at all.
I have tried that, I have even restored the factory image and tried factory reset after that, all with no apparent result.

Did you measure CPU clocks for some time too so you can see if it's something about the governor/etc?

Not sure how to do that but i tested Antutu and Real Racing 3 with Performance Governor @1.5Ghz and it still didn't cut it, i currently have the same Franco kernel settings i had on 4.2.2

I think something is wrong with your device, because I´m on AOSP build with Matrix kernel and I can reach easily 22k on Antutu with no tweaks, just installing ROM and kernel. About games, I have played some and I do´t have any lag or anything related.
As someone stated before, you should try to make a factory reset and try to install an AOSP version, because it has many commits and patches that JW doesn´t have.

By measure for some time I mean to use an app like CPU spy reborn ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mirko.csr ) so it'll record CPU shifts and clock times during a reboot session. It's good to see if the governor is behaving normally, but since you won't have a reference from before I don't know if it'll be very useful.
Well, good luck with your problem, I hope you get it solved quickly. I'm a new N4 owner myself (barely 2 months) and don't much yet about the device.

I've noticed some games which do not run smoothly with 4.3, where they did with 4.2.2. I use unrooted stock, I don't benchmark because I prefer real-world usage.
I think the solution is to wait for app devs to update their software.

I guess I'll try the aosp build,I've had it in the past but steered away from it due to the locks and also slow performance.
I'll try it and report back

If you have a dedexed rom try jszaq patch from the benchmark thread. It will give roms without bionic/krait optimisations those tweaks and also it will give a huge dalvik/java improvement.
I score 21000 antutu and 8000 quadrant with it on deodexed stock jwr rom at stock speeds.
