[DISCONTINUED] Nexus 7.7 - v1.3 - 14-08-2012

This rom will turn your Galaxy Tab 7.7 into a Nexus7 with a 7.7" Super Amoled screen
It's based on locerra's latest cm10 build, kudos to him.



What's in the rom ?

- Nexus 7 Phablet UI layout
- Beats-Audio modified DSP Manager for a greater sound experience.
- init.d tweak scripts : better responsiveness, faster sdcard, faster sqlite3 database write, TCP buffers tweak, lagfix, more to come next time.
- Included the -=V6 SuperCharger Script=- more informations and instructions on how to run below.
- Patched services.jar file to reduce redraws and increase overall smoothness.
- Some Thunderbolt's cfs and touchscreen tweaks
- Slaidy-Boost tweak scripts
- Zipalign at each boot
- A lot of build.prop tweaks, I will make a list of them and their effects soon.
- Busybox v1.19.4
- Optimized su binary to work best with the V6 SuperCharger Script
- Absolutely zero bloatware (except Trebuchet), as close to vanilla experience as possible (can make a flashable add-on for apollo if needed)
- Nexus 7 stock apps by google (Magazines, books, music, chrome, ears, maps, etc...)
- Homemade bootanimation
- Nexus 7 stock launcher
- Nexus 7 ui sounds and animations (not sure if they really differ from cm10)
- More to come...

How to install ?

If you are running stock firmware and want to flash this rom, please do the following to avoid the risk of BRICK


- DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING
- Flash this rom in cwm
- Reboot recovery
- Wipe /data (factory reset) , cache and dalvik cache
- Flash this rom in cwm again
- Flash the gapps in cwm
- Reboot and enjoy

If coming from cm9, i'd recommend you wipe data in cwm first, before doing the following.
If coming from locerra's cm10 then just do the following :

- Wipe Cache
- Wipe Dalvik cache
- Flash the rom (cwm)
- Flash the gapps (cwm)
- Reboot and enjoy !


How to run the -=V6 SuperCharger Script=- ?

Zeppelinrox - the author of this script - doesn't allow any other sort of redistribution of his script other than as it is.
Thus, I cannot provide you with an already "SuperCharged" build of Nexus 7.7 ; you'll have to run the script by yourself.

Do not worry it is really easy to do, just follow the instructions :

Easy way :

- Download Script Manager from the market
- Go to /system/xbin/ and load supercharger in Script Manager
- Run the script as root (skull and crossbones "Su" icon - it turns green when selected)
- follow the on-screen instructions and choose the options you like.

OR

Fast way :

- open Terminal Emulator app
- type the following (each end of line means you have to hit enter) :
- Then follow the on-screen instructions and choose the options you want


Disclaimer
I cannot be held responsible for any damage of any kind made to your device while flashing this rom.
Always be careful when flashing, always think twice, and always read other users feedback before flashing.
This rom is experimental and I currently have no tab to work on, my P6810 is being repaired. I've not even tried this rom yet :crying:
So please understand that I really do this work for the community, and that not having a tab to test on can be very annoying when making roms.

Ok guys, new builds for both models are uploading right now.

I'd need two testers, one for P6800, one for P6810, in order to make sure the builds work before releasing.
Please pm me with your model and your gtalk (if you have one) asap if you are willing to be an alpha-tester.
Will release tonight after testing has been done. (gmt+1 brussels time)

- Removed Chrome temporarily as it didn't work out-of-the-box

Paranoid android

I believe some of you might be happy to know that a (mostly) working Paranoid Android port for Galaxy Tab 7.7 is uploading right now !

P6810 users will be the first to be served, but P6800 will come just a few hours after that, the time for upload and a last safety testing.

Thanks to Faridaizuddin and Isherif, two dedicated testers without whom this wouldn't have been possible. And of course mad props to Locerra without whom even only JB on Galaxy Tab 7.7 wouldn't have been possible ! Check the Development forum for the new thread, and enjoy

EDIT : The thread is up and so is the P6810 download link, enjoy :laugh:

OK guys, the Paranoid Android porting is going better than I thought. Still lots of bugs but at least it boots.

I guess you can expect a (very) experimental public release within a few days. Stay tuned !

P6800 v1.3 build is now out. Check out the OP for link and instructions

Had some issues with the P6810 build, I apologize for owners of this model, the v1.3 will be available by tomorrow, hopefully.
