I have been on the last SlimKat for quite a while. I followed most of your recommendations, and I do like most of the results. However, I am still experiencing very spotty charging. Sometimes, it will charge fine. Other times, it will be plugged-in for hours/days, and does not charge at all. I have tried different chargers, cables, etc., and it does not seem to be consistent. Do you (or anyone else) have any advice for this? Does the hardware fix that helps the touchscreen have anything to do with charging? I am getting really tired of this problem. I've been ready to recycle this thing several times. Just when I think it is hopeless, it will charge, but I want it to charge reliably. Thanks.
I haven't had that issue and I don't think the hardware fix I mentioned will do anything about it. Sounds like your charging port may be damaged.
That is what I thought. I appreciate the quick response. Hoping that I can figure it out.
I take that partially back.. I did have problems when I let it drain completely. Take a look at this.
Make sure you're using the stock charger or an alternative high quality one. I usually go Monoprice for cables, but Anker and Aukey sell some good value packs on Amazon too.
Sorry for random chime, but touchscreen hardware fix did affect charging for me, it's been a while since I ran my DNA but I know it helps with charging issue, just can't remember if it fixed it or hindered it. I hope I didn't confuse anyone.
It is not completely dead, no. I sometimes run it down to around 8%, etc. So, I think it is a different problem. I am using decent chargers, and sometimes they work perfectly. I will try that method just to see if it helps, but I suspect it is something different. Thanks.
Help!!!
Can someone please convert the latest stable SlimKat rom (v9) to all-F2FS for me. The original link is below. I try to convert it myself but my nexus 7 (2012) got Google logo bootloop after flashing the converted version.

I used Slim_mini_gapps.4.4.4.build.8.x-385 and ot's playstore has a wonderful black theme to it but when google playstore updates itself, I get the official blindingly bright play store. Is there a way to stop it from updating or can I get slimkat's latest black themed playstore?
Hi I just flashed this on my old Nexus 7, and it's really fast. However there's always a notification to update on android and slimkat. can i update this to the slimkat 4.4.4 or it will not work?
no, it won't work. you need an F2FS rom, and iirc the updates through the notification are based on the original branch of the code (which is not f2fs)
i suggest simply removing the nag message by disabling it in settings -> applications and finding the update software. that's what I did... unfortunately don't remember what the name of the app was but it should be straightforward.
I have this, how did you actually fix it?
I am going to try and flash back to stock, and start again. Nothing else seems to work, just stuck in the google loop.

Hello Palitu.
Oh man, that was way back!
If my memory serves me right, after I could fix it, I realized I should have converted the user partition BEFORE rebooting, by manually returning to the recovery and converting the user partition. But I could be wrong.
The game saver was to start from scratch (the original stock ROM at purchase - not an updated one too) with the tool kit here.
Now the tool kit updated and should not have changed much, but I remember back then that it was the only fix for me.
If you take the time to really study the tool it carefully, it is quite a breeze.
Let me know. Cheers! :victory:

I was sturggling to get the ADB/fastboot connection. turns out if you get into fastboot THEN plug in USB, it will actually connect properly.
that was my big issue, the lack of ADB/fastboot connection. I had just pulled out my horrible N7 (so SLOW!) as i have a little home automation project, and i wanted it as a controller, and so fat N2NS and slimkat seems to make it actually useable!
thanks!

106SlimKat with "All-F2FS" support
I have modified SlimKat to work with F2FS partitions. All credits for the ROM to SlimKat guys.
This is for "All-F2FS" that mean that /system, /cache and /data are formatted with F2FS.
This is needed to switch to "All-F2FS".
ROM contains my Kernel with "All-F2FS" support and other goodies.
One of the goodies of my kernel is that i was able to reclaim more 18MB of RAM for Android. As you can see in Settings we are now at 993MB.
MultiROM isn't supported as now because i need to patch it to work with "new" ram.
What is F2FS?
F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is a flash file system created by Kim Jaegeuk at Samsung for the Linux operating system kernel. The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that from the start takes into account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards), which are widely used in computer systems ranging from mobile devices to servers.

There is one reason. I worked hard on a new kernel that i wanted to include with new version. So i had to make sure that it works well at least for me. Sorry for the delay.
Slim-grouper-4.4.2.build.4.6-WEEKLY-3836-F2FS.zip
I'm just writing the link for the new release here. If you guys tell me that all work good i will push it to the first post.
New kernel contains a lot of unique optimizations for our N7 made by me. I tested it for days and seems to work right. I even did some benchs (usually i don't them..) and seems that with Antutu we are around 15000 points..(Obviously without overclock..). There is nothing to configure or to tweak. It's to use as is out of the box.
