Good health! We are waiting for you.

Hang in there... Totally understand. For what it's worth I very much appreciate the ROMS. They have kept my Nexus 7 relevant even though I have newer devices (that are less supported in the ROM community)...

Updates

@JT1510365. I would like to try this ROM again, but apparently you have not updated it since May. Is this project dead?
Thanks

Hi
Trying to install with TWRP.
I get error-
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

The device is Nexus 7 (2013) WiFi only (flo). What maybe wrong?
Do I need any specific kernel?

Two things come to mind, are you using the latest edition of TWRP and did you perform the re-partitioning process prior to flashing?

Thanks for the pointers. I am using latest TWRP 3.0.0.0.
What is re-partitioning process? What are steps?

The latest TWRP is 3.3.1-0 (https://dl.twrp.me/flo/). Here is a re-partitioning link from @followmsi and all you need to do is download and flash the "sysrepart" before you flash the ROM (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78703434&postcount=1971).

After repartition you need to format the new partitions...... and after that you can install the rom

Hi,

When I try to install TWRP 3.3.1-0 with 'fastboot flash recover twrp-3.3.1-0-flow.img' I get error-

fastboot: core/libsparse/sparse.cpp:131: int write_all_blocks(struct sparse_file *, struct output_file *): Assertion `pad >= 0' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Tried to download img again but same error.

First, I assume you have downloaded the proper TWRP for your Nexus 7 flo device. I do not use Fastboot to flash and instead, I just flash through TWRP that is installed on my flo. I download the file, either .zip or .img to my flo, then boot to recovery (TWRP) and choose "Install" from the menu. If you are going to install a .img file, select "Install Image" from the bottom right corner of the page and then navigate to where your .img file is downloaded. Click on the proper file and the Install .Img page should open. Swipe to flash the file and you should be good-to-go. Another option is to download the TWRP app and install it on your flo. Then use the app to select the proper TWRP file and use the app to flash it to your device.

Hey everybody sorry i haven't been posting builds lately. I have deciced to stop making roms for a couple months for all my devices because it feels like too much work for me at the moment and i am trying to deal with my personal mental health issues that i am currently working on. This isn't a goodbye i will eventually start developing and making roms again i just don't know when i will have the motivation to come back. But when i come back from taking my break i will try to update most of my roms for you all

Also i deeply apologize to the people that requested any sort of help and that have emailed or private messaged me here on xda. I have seen your messages and i will respond to you all and try to help eventually but right now that's not my priority. I just got too much stuff going on with my life but it's nothing against any of you. I love to help people but my sanity and mental health is more important.

I hope you all can understand

Please take car of #1 first!! ROMs can wait... I'm still on the Jan build because I use mine for a remote control for my TV/lights lol... it runs very well and I think I'm only going to flash again once Android 10 comes to this device...

@JT1510365. I noticed that updates seemed delayed and became concerned. Take care of yourself; the ROMS can wait.
Best

Does this ROM support multi-user? I tried modifying the build.prop as mentioned in the below thread but it does not seem to work...

Theres no need to edit the build prop you can do it right from settings its in there

Great Rom!!! Has anyone else notice you can't group apps together? Thanks, @JT1510365

Looking for a little help with Pokemon

I have 2 Nexus 7. One is stock with the latest images I'm Google. That one can run Pokemon but I had to sideload it from apk mirror. The other one I decided to try some pie ROMs but every time I try to run Pokemon I get "this device, OS, or software is not compatible with Pokemon go."

I have not rooted the taplet at all. I have tried two other pie roms and they do the same thing. Is there something in the roms that make Pokemon think it's rooted and doesn't allow it to run?

The stock images are fine but with pie the tablet runs much faster and makes gameplay easier.

The irony here is that the fix is to root your device with Magisk and then hide root from Pogo and Google.Play Services.
Only use version 19.2 of Magisk as newer versions have issues that Pogo will occasionally detect.
That will get you up and running.

A better option, IMHO, is to run the unofficial LOS 14.1 which is now being updated by @wileyc
https://xdaforums.com/nexus-7-2013/orig-development/rom-lineageos-14-1-weekly-builds-nexus-t3968502
No root requirement for Pogo, and more available memory which is important on an Android device with only 2gig of memory.

I did try with the newest version but I didn't think of using an old version. After that didn't work my thought was if I didn't root it then it should work, that's why I posted. Didn't know if something was added to the ROM that Pokemon thought was root.Thank you for your help. I will give it a try.

Ohhhh and one more thing.
You'll likely need to clear/delete the app cache for Pogo if you've already been detected, (and if you want to persist with Pixel Experience + Magisk).
My N7 is a dedicated Pogo device and as a fairly dedicated player, have found that Lineage 14.1 is the best ROM for the purpose.
Good luck.
