Hi all!

So, I don't own a tilapia, and I don't know anyone that does, but I build ROMs for fun and wanted to cover a base not already covered!


Today I have for you a pure AOSP build for Tilapia (Nexus 7 2012 3G)

Flashing instructions
Code:
1) Backup Everything [SIZE="7"] I MEAN EVERYTHING! THIS WIPES INTERNAL SD[/SIZE]
---YOUR WARANTY IS NOW VOID. THIS INCLUDED NO GUARANTEES---
2) Reboot into fastboot
3) run "fastboot -w update tilapia-lollipop.zip"
4) Boot into the ROM and run through setup
5) Download the Gapps and the fix zip from below to the device
6) Reboot into fastboot
7) run "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" (or "fastboot boot twrp.img"
8) Flash gapps.zip and the fix zip
9) Reboot and report back

WHAT WORKS?
Code:
Confirmed:
Boots
Wifi
Data

Not complained about yet:
Sound
Bluetooth
NFC
Camera
Video Playback (Yes this could be an issue on some devices, but I doubt this one)
etc,

NOT WORKING
Code:
[STRIKE]Data[/STRIKE] Works now. Flash the fix in the next post

FAQ

I CANT FLASH ROOT WTF MAN?!?
It will bootloop if I'm not mistaken
Don't flash root yet


WOAH WHERE'S MY RECOVERY?!?!?
You need root to remove the script that installs the stock Nexus recovery each time you boot up the device

Get me (nonalcoholic) beer: [email protected]
I do this in my spare time around school, music production, and my social life. (I'm only 16 and try to have one of those...unsuccessfully)

Root works with the modified kernel.

I have the grouper version on my tilapia now. I'll try a dirty flash first.
I'll keep you posted on the progress.
Thanks for the built.

I kinda figured RIL would be broken
IIRC, lollipop changed a lot about how networking works for mobile data

Can someone grab me a logcat and a dmesg? (I believe dmesg might actually need root, but I ask that you get me at least a logcat on the stock kernel, dmesg if you can, and then both with a modified root kernel)

You can't really use benchmark apps, as they haven't been optimized for ART, especially the newest changes that have come about

That, and benchmarks are just numbers that never reflect real world performance

Hey - I compiled the AOSP source from Google as well and my RIL isn't working. Here is my dmesg and logcat. The dmesg shows it isn't seeing the SIM card. I used the precompiled kernel that was with the source.

holy...what the heck

Honestly, I have to look a bit more at this, but it might actually be just the radio and firmware aren't compatable with the new RIL style
I should ask @manups4e if he sees anything. He was a bit smarter than I about RIL issues

if you can get me the logcat -b radio > radio.txt it should be better

then, ^^ can you see the baseband version? because dmesg shows that ril is working... also if i remember correctly 5.0.0_r1 is for phones and tablet, r2 is for a videogame console.. try to build the r1 and ask someone to test it

Are you sure? The way Google has usually done things like that is just the rX is a major milestone internally

People have said that r1 is branched into r2

...I can try it though...

Baseband unknown means that rild can't read radio firmware files.. Check proprietary files I think qmuxd and libril-qc-qmi-1.so

---------- Post added at 05:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 PM ----------

From logcat I can read that radio and modem are not activating like the system hasn't radio framework or codes..

What did you do?

Also, I take it that baseband is still blank in Settings?

Either that, or the SIM is still read as inactive?

I changed the permissions for /proc/cmdline using init.tilapia.rc.

I added this to the "on boot" section. Baseband it still "unknown". I think I misinterpretted the first time. In dmesg is shows sim state: 0 but if you look at the logcat it shows SIM-COUNT: 1. Attached is the logcat for anyone interested.
Code:
# RIL permissions fix
## Added by rjwil1086
    chmod 0644 /proc/cmdline

What did you do?

    2) Reboot into fastboot

    4) Boot into the ROM and run through setup
    5) Download the Gapps and the fix zip from below to the device
    6) Reboot into fastboot
    7) run "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" (or "fastboot boot twrp.img"
    8) Flash gapps.zip and the fix zip

    I got RIL working! Apparently the old vendor binary for 4.4.4 doesn't play well with the new rild daemon. I copied /system/bin/rild from a 4.4.4 ROM and replaced the one that compiled with lollipop and viola, I have 3G. I'm working on my device tree right now to see if I can get it to compile with the old rild.

    Here's some builds of the latest release 5.0.0_r5. These have all the same fixes as the ones I posted last night on 5.0.0_r2. If you flash these over without wiping you will also need to reflash gapps.
    http://goo.gl/32C5lN - Mega
    http://goo.gl/HP57me - Google Drive

    Also, attached is my local manifests if anyone wants to compile AOSP themselves. These include the following:
    • modified device tree
    • ported 4.4.4 ril
    • modified releasetools to exclude recovery images in ota builds

    Enjoy!

    Got a few updates for everyone.

    AJ - please feel free to use links in OP.

    Android 5.0.0_r2
    - TWRP flashable (untested in CWM but may work)
    - doesn't overwrite recovery
    - data working
    http://goo.gl/bFq2HD - Mega
    http://goo.gl/fa6FqR - Google Drive

    Also, I see people are having trouble with Google Now Launcher. I can verify it works with this zip and the gapps posted by @drewwalton19216801
    [GAPPS] [LOLLIPOP] Google Apps flashable package for Android 5.0 Lollipop!
