Boot-loop while charging

I've flashed this ROM 3 times and every time the process went smooth, also with the Gapp mini. But I noticed that the tablet goes into bootloop several times (when it's connected to a charger) when I restart the device, then it boots into recovery mode, after disconnecting the charger and reboot the device it works perfectly. I've wiped the cache and dalvik/cache several times with no luck to fix that. Re-flashed the ROM again, same problem.

Nexus 7 2012 Grouper 32GB
Android 7.1.2 (Build 20171208)

This happened before and after flashing the SR1-SuperSU-v2.82 (systemless)

It's been a while since I been on here. Which version has the normal charging while on. Last I hear was that some of the latest had issue with charging while on that it would only be I believe half speed.

As far as I understand "world" is a singular noun, and "fall" is a plural verb, so I see a mismatch here. Is this poetry or medieval English or dialect? :)
I'm guessing you don't watch the "walking dead" which it's reference to. Yet you do realize that not everything has to make sense since knowledge as we know could be different in another dimension. Beside why bother responding to a post completely off subject.

@AndDiSa Is it possible to add more custom options to the build ? Like move the clock to left side of statusbar, network meter , screenshot , etc and builtin messaging for tilapia ?

It is possible to make screenshot: long press vol- + power together! ;)
The left-sided clock is possible, too: go to Settings - nAOSProm options - Clock setting (at the bottom) - Alignment

Version with January security fixes (2018/01/05) uploaded

Today I've uploaded a new version of the ROM (Grouper / Tilapia) containing the January security fixes. You can download them from the OP. I've cherry-picked the related commits as Google didn't update the 7.1.2 branch (yet). As I already wrote, no fixes for Sprectre for now ... just wait and see whether we will get them. (Really speaking I do not expect them :()

Beside that a slight change in the kernel: I disabled LP overclocking as I noticed that battery consumption in relation to performance is better without LP overclocking. Due to that I had to adjust the intelliactive settings a bit, too.

If you are familiar with the updating process, you can download the new versions also from here: Grouper-OTA (20180112) / Tilapia-OTA (20180112)

And as always: flash on your own risk ...

    This thread is about installing and using AOSP 7.x (Nougat) ROM for the ASUS Nexus 7 Grouper / Tilapia devices.

    Asus - Model names

    Grouper = Asus Nexus 7 2012 WiFi
    Tilapia = Asus Nexus 7 2012 3G


    Initial Setup Installation
    1. Update Recovery to TWRP 3.7.0-9 for Grouper resp. TWRP 3.7.0-9 for Tilapia
    2. Boot into Recovery
    3. Factory Reset (only needed if you are not already on Android 7.x AOSP)
    4. Install 7.1.2 Grouper OTA-Package (Build 20240306) (MD5: 81b65db59a0690d6f5a5f1791133d684)
      or
      Install 7.1.2 Tilapia OTA-Package (Build 20240306) (MD5: b9beb4aa902c0aaf271e51f37b17db17)
    5. Reboot into recovery
    6. Install Open GApps (arm/7.1/pico)
      (if you have issues regarding the size of the GApps please refer to the next post)
    [*]To get root access, I suggest to use the unified Magisk (V27.0) which can be flashed by TWRP, too. Eventually you'll need to rename Magisk-v27.0.apk to Magisk-v27.0.zip

    I was not able to flash Magisk 24.x by TWRP / direct install, nevertheless the patching boot.img method worked. For that you need to extract the boot.img from the OTA and transfer it to your devies. Then you need to patch the boot.img and transfer it back to your PC. Finally you can flash the patched boot.img using fastboot.
    For detailed instructions please consult the Magisk threads here in XDA.

    Do not install Magisk on initial setup as it might lead to issues. Start the ROM without having root access the first time and install Magisk in a second step.

    If you are already on Android 7.x AOSP, it's sufficient to do the follwowing steps:

    Update Installation
    • Boot into Recovery
      • Install 7.1.2 Grouper OTA-Package (Build 20240306) (MD5: 81b65db59a0690d6f5a5f1791133d684)
        or
        Install 7.1.2 Tilapia OTA-Package (Build 20240306) (MD5: b9beb4aa902c0aaf271e51f37b17db17)
      • Reboot into recovery
      • Install Open GApps (arm/7.1/pico)
        (if you have issues regarding the size of the GApps please refer to the next post)
      • Wipe cache/dalvik-cache (optional, but suggested)
      • reboot

    Important: For more detailed installation instructions please refer to the next post
    Important: First boot after upgrading will take a bit longer (stays on ANDROID) because of art optimizations

    flash and use on your own risk!

    Please note:
    • the system partition is already quite full which leads to the problem that gapps probably will not install correctly and that may lead to weired problems (apps closing / not showing up correctly / ...). I suggest to use the dynamic gapps package linked above. In addition I suggest you to erase the system partition completely before applying the OTA package
    • If you get "Error 7" when trying to flash the ROM directly after upgrading to TWRP 3.5.2-9, wipe the Boot, System and Cache partition and clean dalvik-cache, then re-boot to Recovery and try again (you will not loose any data as long as you do not wipe the Data partition).
    • If you get "Error 70" when installing GApps copy the attached gapps-config files into the same directory where the gapps installation packages is copiedI.e. something like

      /sdcard/open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20210922.zip
      /sdcard/gapps-config-tilapia.txt
      /sdcard/gapps-config-grouper.txt

      and then try to start the installation again. Error 70 should be fixed.

    Some additional hints
    • If you are in a bootloop which shows to Google logo again and again, it's sufficient to hold vol- while booting. The next bootloop will boot into bootloader.
    • If you are in a bootloop which shows the ANDROID splash screen continuusly, connect your device to your PC and enter
      Code:
      adb reboot bootloader
      After a few seconds the device should show up the bootloader screen

    Hi guys,

    first of all I would like to thank all of you for your support you offered to me in the last days and I really feel honoured that so many of your would like to support / help me so that I am able to continue the development for the Nexus 7.
    I've got many offers for a "new" Nexus device from all over the world which I really didn't expect. I was really torn between continuing and stepping out. I've thought very much about pros and cons and it wasn't an easy decision especially if you get so much positive feedback. Thank you again!

    Finally I've decided to stop development for the Nexus 7 (at least for the moment). There are several other projects (not all of them related to Android) I've in mind and probably this now was a broad hint to start with something different. I've uploaded the sources of the ROMs latest version (inc. security patches for June 2019) to Github and tested together with @fidoedidoe whether all needed repos and changes are consistent and that one can build the ROM from those repos without the need of doing additional modifications or patches. The build should run smoothly after synchronizing everything. I will also support and help everybody who would like to step in and continue the builds.
    I know there are several people interested in building the ROM from sources. Probably there is someone (or probably even a group) who would like to continue ...
    Cheers,
    AndDiSa

    2019/02/05 - release for Grouper and Tilapia uploaded

    I've just uploded the latest version of the ROM for Grouper and Tilapia. As always the Android security issues listed in the latest Android Security Bulletin are patched in this ROM.

    Beside that once again I've worked much on the kernel side. Some features are added (multiple binder devices, alarm timer device, ...) and some bugs have been fixed.
    I am still working together with @OlliWi on the slow charging issue which occurs from time to time. Even if I was able to get charging currents up to 1500mA while the device was connected to a charger, we still have the impression that the cable / charger detection needs to be improved. We are on it ...

    Those of you who are familiar with the installation process of the ROM can download directly from here, otherwise please first read the instructions in the OP

    7.1.2 Grouper OTA-Package (Build 20190209) (md5: 885e601a06a2104628a1e450b73f3a18)
    7.1.2 Tilapia OTA-Package (Build 20190209) (md5: 8e4c0e1955ecc0bb65a51582bb01f779)

    And finally as always: flash on your own risk ... ;)

    New year ... new security fixes (2019/01/05)

    Hi guys,

    I've just uploaded a new version of the ROM for our beloved Nexus 7 (Grouper / Tilapia) having the January 2019 security fixed applied to it.

    Beside that I found a bug causing bootloops on initial install / after wiping dalvik. This was caused by zygote not having enough memory available to create the boot.jar on the fly. To fix this issue, I am doing a dex-preopt for the boot image on compile time now which leads to a slightly larger image but improves initial boot time a bit, too.

    To get more memory free on the /system partition, I debloated the ROM a bit, e.g. removed the Browser2, LegacyCamera, Music and Calendar apps as some of them even didn't work fully. There are several alternatives available in several stores which you can install if you need them. Probably most of you do not even notice that these apps were removed.

    Most changes were applied to the kernel. I tested the changes in the last 4 weeks but as I have a Grouper device only and I cannot test each functionality I cannot exclude that something doesn't work as expected. So please file a bug report (best with logcat and a meaningful bug description) if you find some unexpected behaviour and I will have a look at it.

    The most important fix here is probably the improved charging behaviour (many thanks to @OlliWi who provided with fruitful analysis and hints and pushed me to have a deeper look at this issue).
    To get a faster charging of the device, do not boot with a USB cable connected as this prevents the device to charge with more than 500mA (or at least disconnect and re-connect the cable after the device booted).

    I've updated the links in the OP, so you can download the latest version from there.

    Happy new year to all of you!
