WHich Rom ? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
i have my old 2012 that from when i uptdated to Android 5.1.1 it become so so slow, nealry useless.
Actually which Rom do u suggest to have a usable tablet?
I use very simple program, as youtube, chrome, aliexpress, udemy, pocket.
Thanks
Ale

I recommend Android 7.x AOSP by AndDiSa. Works like a charm with GApps Pico, f2fs for Data and Cache and Trimmer app. If you need a up to date slim launcher use AmirZ Pixel Launcher for low Ram Devices. Also I didn't extra install google app for better performance

Amen. Would also add that this ROM is still being maintained by a very helpful Dev.

I also recommend that ROM, but instead of the GAPPS, I use MicroG and only the PlayStore app to free as much RAM and CPU resources as possible.

Well, there were sgt7 builds at http://code.google.com/p/tab89-sgt7/downloads/list . Though SGT7 (Android 4.3) is not developed anymore, so there was no reason to make new build.
But it is always nice to have a thread with firmware discussions

Well yeah maybe, but last version in this list you mentioned dated in 2013-11-20,
this build I ported was in 2014-2-23, so it is newer, and I think that is better than a hidden list right!
great!!

Really, you should try them all and decide what works for you. In my experience, CM10.2 is quite solid, though, and is my daily driver. The kit kat ROMs are really cool. They are roughly as smooth and fast, though the battery life is not quite as good.
It's really fast rom but 3G is not working, i have four bars but does not connect, when i scan for mobile networks it gives me error

[ROM][MIUI NOUGAT] MULTIROM for Mido

https://multirom.me/
••• What is MultiRom? •••
MultiRom is a unique Russian project of which the main focus is quality and stability.
MultiRom Team "Quote"
"Our team is a team of IT professionals. We use modern version control systems, assembly, testing, quality control assembly.

MultiRom team uses their new translation system and patching firmware "B.A.R.S"/Methic.
But Xiaomi.EU team uses simple ways apktool and smali/baksmali.
MultiROM way takes more time to compile but the quality of their work is on high level.
All APKs during the translation are subject to optimization. The greater amount of RAM - as a result of optimization.
-And one example of their great work and high quality is how much free RAM is available compared to other MiUi ROMs.
-They use about 40 patches to make the firmware great. In addition to well-known patches and patch T9 paid to those present:
-Patch Anti-spam, calendar, camera, wedge-master, Email, gallery, a compass, a framework, MiUi key guard, weather, SMS, yellow pages, security, videos, contacts, and so on. In general, patches adapted typical Chinese setting and services to European.
-They do not include third party firmware hacked software. Only Open-Source.
••• MultiROM features •••
-Based on China ROMs.
-Great improvement in RAM management. (2.0GB+ Free RAM available.)
-Supports both Developer and Stable ROMs.
-Weekly updates for Developer ROM after MiUi Official Update.
-Enough Google apps installed.
-No problem with Google apps
-Chinese Bloatwares are removed.
-Firmware is less than 1GB. (not always)
••• Requirements •••
1. Unlocked Bootloader
2. Custom Recovery
••• Important •••
Wipe only data/cache (DO NOT WIPE SYSTEM)
••• Installing Updates •••
Just like installing the ROM/ wipe only data

Yes. Do not wipe system at any cost before flashing this ROM because you'll mess up the device. Always wipe data, DALVIK and cache before flashing and flash the ROM

True :angel:
This ROM is a modified MiUi ROM. You'll just need to wipe data, dalvik and cache before flashing the ROM no matter which ROM you had before wiping.
If you have any battery bugs and issues, switch off the phone and charge it because a battery cycle is required after every ROM flash.

Click to expand...

Android version - 6.0.1 (MM)
VoLTE - For me it's NO.
Also, 4G internet wasn't working.
You might check it with single sim. As some users reported that they got 4G and VoLTE working.
As in FlymeOS 5, we need to use single sim, in order to boot up properly and use it as daily driver.
So FlymeOS 6 may also require to use single sim only!
Although, after using single sim too, you'll not be able to install GApps, as this ROM is too big and requires alot smaller size of GApps package.
Also, the overall look and feel.
It's like iOS.
-------
Camera app is made like iOS.
Recent apps menu is made like iOS.
Animations for opening an app is like iOS.
-------
For me, it was just a 15-20 mins journey of this ROM.
And I was using for that time just to experience FlymeOS, that how it looks.

I mentioned, it's not suitable for you, if you use Google apps.
Also, I used it just for 15-20mins.
In that time period, I just got 4G and VoLTE bug.
Also, the animations were lagging.
As this ROM has too many animations....
My recommendation is better go for MIUI or an Android N C.ROM rather than this..

I've just flashed this rom. The UI is great, rom is smooth. But there are some problems of course. Gallery app is not working, I can take photo but can't open it in gallery. And the sd card does not seems to show up. But good thing is since it based on H2OS, I can flash Arsenic kernel and it's working fine. Do not disturb mode is always enabled, I can't turn it off, but phone still rang.
Edit: sd card does not show up in default explorer, but it shows and working in Solid Explorer. Both flashing open gapps and magisk are working fine.

"Screenshots are in the Chinese forum"... It is is written right in the first post!
Click the link
Just flashed.. Great animations, graphics, sounds and a unique feeling in general.
BUT! This rom asks for every single app for internet and location permissions! from calendar to gallery and notes, in music app and so on.. And if you don't to give permissions there is only an "exit" option and you can't use the app! Maybe it's safe but it seems to me a little shady.
There are many chinese apps preinstalled which explains the size of the rom.
Furthermore some notifications are in chinese and you don't get what they say.
I flashed opengapps after flashing the rom with no success, so I used a google installer from their store and it worked just fine..
Photos from the camera are stretched and Gallery doesn't show anything as mentioned..
wifi/bluetooth/data works fine.
Just updated the post.
details on the ROM: UI experience is unique compared to the other custom ROMs available, but very similar to H2OS. The only difference is that Flyme's launcher has tons of themes online (I hated all of them tho). ROM is really good as a daily, it contains both camera apps, OnePlus' one and Meizu's one. And after enabling Google services via the Google Installer apk, there are no issues either. And any kernel for OOS 3 will work on this ROM; I'm using Arsenic kernel. I've also flashed Magisk v13.1 and it is working without any problems with Greenify and Naptime running

Hi Everyone,
Here I'd like to Introduce you with my custom Gapps package that I use on day to day basis when I flash a new Rom. As I've observed many people struggling with finding the correct version of gapps to flash, I decided to build a package of my own which lets you flash stable google apps with a lot of variants so you can decide for yourself which package suits you.
What is NikGapps?
NikGapps project started with the goal to provide custom gapps packages that suits everyone's needs. A package that a user needs but cannot find and ends up setting up the device installing more apps and removing unwanted apps manually.
NikGapps is a gapps package built from my own device. As my device is always updated with latest version of Google Apps, every time I build a new package, I am on latest and stable version of Google Apps
NikGapps also comes with Android Go package for low end devices.
NikGapps is a bit different than other Gapps packages (written from scratch, it isn't a port of OpenGapps). It focuses on providing apps that most of the people uses but can't find it in other Gapps packages and ends up installing the apps manually
NikGapps supports split-apks
NikGapps also comes with nikgapps.config and debloater.config which allows you to control your installation and debloat unnecessary stuff from your Rom respectively.
NikGapps is built on a different architecture, the installation method is completely different (Every Package comes with installer.sh that installs itself). Also, it installs the gapps to /product partition instead of /system partition
NikGapps also allows you to configure the installation, it can be installed to any partition (be it /system or /product or any other partition which may get added in future)
NikGapps also allows you to keep the aosp counterpart of google app if you want (just by using nikgapps.config you can choose whether to remove the aosp counterpart or remove it)
NikGapps allows you to dirty flash it anytime you want, it also supports installing on top of Roms with Gapps (except for the pixel flavored Roms)
NikGapps also comes with addon packages (useful ones) so that users don't have to flash the whole gapps package just to have the app installed.
NikGapps supports the Privileged Permission Whitelisting, providing the necessary permissions to the privileged apps.
It supports addon.d so you need not flash the package again and again after every nightly flash
NikGapps addon.d functionality is built from scratch which allows you to completely control which app you want to backup/restore on dirty flash.
It also allows optimizing Google Play Services (when you turn off Find My Device) so that you can sleep with peace without having to worry about Google play services eating your battery. (Requires support from Rom too in order to work)
Also, since these are custom build, I can include as many packages as I want (which I do, you can pm me if you want that package)
NikGapps comes with following packages
» Core
» Basic
» Omni
» Stock
» Full
» Go (for low end devices)
Although these packages cover a large user base, there are few users who like things differently that is where NikGapps Addons Comes into picture. These Addon packages are separate and meant to flash over NikGapps original packages.

Hey can we have a package which will replace the default ROMs aosp apps like Google calendar, Google clock, Google dailer, Google contact, google message, google calculator, google gboard, youtube vanced, pixel launcher and wallpaper, Latest Gcam with all the goodies like playground ar sticker included if you cant provide it in a single zip then provide gcam all in one zip separately. Rest all other apps can be downloaded but these apps are needed as default apps in the ROM.

+1 to this but without the pixel launcher because I like the built launcher

I'll create one tomorrow. I'll exclude pixel launcher as we can install it separately and there are ported versions available which are preferred over stock.
As for ar sticker in Google camera, I'll create a separate addon zip as the file size will increase tremendously and not everyone wants to install it.

i will report my feedback later on lineage OS
EDIT:
Well for me its more comfortable using your mod in comparison with opengapps just because acelerate the setup of the phone, it has all that i need too, the only problem that i see is that a person who need more apps isn't the best, in that way probaly its better opengapps, anyway, the thing that contain youtube vanced is the best for me, so i really appreaciate your mod of gapps, thanks

Great suggestion. +1

Also please see if we can have basic Google addons like Digital Wellbeing, Google TTS, ARCore, Backup and Restore libs. . ?
The idea for the project is great, but to satisfy the configuration of everyone is kinda imposible. With opengapps we can customize each part that we want and I think the ultimate goal for this one could be like that, creating a "master package" with a small config file to just install the components we need (or just delete them from the zip file, with instructions of course)
This is a great idea, for starters can you post which all apps are included in the uploaded zip?

Let me know the path of default launcher, I will create a flashable zip for you which will replace the default launcher with pixel launcher.

Yeah, actually I missed Digital Wellbeing in the package that I created, I will include in next build. Backup and restore libs are included I believe. No?
ArCore will be provided as an add on zip soon.

You're right, I used to create aroma gapps when I had Mido with me, unfortunately poco doesn't support aroma installer, that makes it difficult to serve everyone.
May be I will implement a way in which I will ask user to provide an input while installing a particular Google app through NikGapps (vol + button for 'yes' and vol - button for 'no'). Will have to check its feasibility. till then, I will provide 2 packages, one which is shared in OP and the other one with all the Google apps replacing stock aosp apps.

Certainly! Thanks for the tip!
I personally create a package which includes latest magisk, the kernel I prefer to flash, Google Sans fonts, some cool ringtones, notification tones, my favorite browser, mixplorer, SwiftKey, telegram, adaway, fk app, etc. In one zip. It pretty much covers all the basic apps. Let me know if anyone is interested in such kind of zip.

It doesnt have to be aroma, currently Im still using custom opengapps config by a gapps-config.txt file that got read before it tries to install gapps. Making a script that determine some on off value should not be that bad, not that I know about how to actually code it

Yeah, can you share your custom opengapps? I can code it but it will take some time.

It's an official feature of opengapps, I didn't make anything

It's certainly possible. The package I use personally has all these apps in it. Not everyone uses all the Google apps hence I included the bare minimum ones and the essential ones specific to our device.

OH! I never paid this much attention to opengapps since I had been using my gapps for a long time
Thanks for sharing! I'll certainly work on something which allows users to have a choice.

Yes, if choices is an option then it would be much cooler.
Also, do you have any experience with microg? Since if it's possible to to a package like this but with microg for people who wants to use the Google apps without the excessive battery & data hog nature of google play service, then it would be even better

I do have experience with microg but like I said earlier, I build the package from my device and I don't use microg as of now (last I used, it was unstable, couldn't use apps dependent on google libs like uber, not sure about it's current status) and building a package without having microg installed is not possible for me. However, I'm inclined to take requests/suggestions with regards to current package that I am providing.
Update!
