Hi, how can I enable the developer options? The 7-tapping trick on build number doesn't work. Thanks

Nvm I posted too quickly, this should be put on the front page btw. Thanks for an amazing rom :)

NFC issue. Can I have a bit of help please? When I try to send contact to my SmoothROM 5.3 Nexus 7, I get the beep confirming connection but instead of transferring the data, the NFC on the N7 opens Google Play instead with a message saying the item could not be found. I was trying to share a contact and even tried it within the contact app. But it just won't work. Can someone please tell me what I could be doing wrong?

Thanking everyone in advance for any help provided.

UPDATE: It seems like contact might be the only issue. Just beamed a photo from my HTC One to the N7 successfully. Could it be that the contact app I use does not support transfer by NFC ?

Been on this ROM for awhile, but recently it seems to be being stuck forcing me to restart and sometimes it won't wake. Anyone else?

I have had lags and apps FCs with this ROM. I reboot can usually help.
I am running lean kernel 3.1.10
Any suggestions?

1. Try Faux's kernel - I work with it on v5.3 of the Rom and it's smooth in any nanoscopic aspect. :victory:
2. Try reinstalling FROM SCRATCH the rom using ONLY the kernels supplied with the rom. :cowboy:
don't worry too much about restoring application - you've got helpers like titanium backup etc.;)

As I stated earlier, I'm really digging this ROM. Question... Is this ROM designed specifically for nexus 7 2012?

Any idea how long a project like this will be supported/updated?

whenever aokp kitkat reaches almost stable and has enough features then the OP says he will update. I sooooooo wish he was on github cause then I could do a build of his 4.3 with aokp's final release with tabletui.......but his stuff is worth the wait.

Install Problem

I have an error when trying to install this rom, I have fully wiped everything except storage...
The error is -Checking Device ID...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "grouper"ll
getprop(ro.product.device") == "tilapia" ll
getprop(ro.build.product") == "tilapia!

Thanks

Grouper is WiFi only tilapia is WiFi and 3g, not sure but if this ROM is for WiFi only and your is the 3g model then it won't work for that reason. Other than that I don't know what to suggest.

What recovery and version do you have installed? I had to downgrade to TWRP 2.6.3 to get this ROM to install.

Same error here, this rom won't install even if I am running TWRP 2.6.3.1.

    Installation

    If CWM ask you to 'Disable Recovery Flash' after install, select no ! It will remove the files needed for the init.d support.

    Please do not restore a 'system' data backup as it would overwritte some important files

    Easy Way

    • Use JROMFlasher (Click here) to wipe your data, flash custom recovery, upload my ROM

    Hard Way

    • Require Custom Recovery
    • Copy the ROM to the root of your SDCard (/sdcard).
      - You can copy/paste it from Windows Explorer.
      - You can download the ROM from your device. It will be generally located in /sdcard/downloads
      - You can use ADB : 'adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/' for Windows and Mac/Linux : './adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/'
    • Boot into Recovery
    • Wipe all cache and userdata
    • Flash the ROM from custom Recovery

    SmoothROM v5.3 is under its way with Android 4.3 AOKP!
    I have been working on it secretly since a while now! It works pretty flawless to me as today! :) There are very few bugs that should be fixed soon. I am not done merging SmoothdROM v5.2 optimisations and I also found new optimisations that could be done including a huge one :)

    No ETA yet but keep in mind I am working on it!
