Cool thanks, I`ll give it a shot
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cdkizzle:
Hmm...did that and it says 1.4 is the latest version...still choppy
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
I dunno, it is smooth on mine (as is the stock launcher)

Maybe try a full wipe and reinstall.

Updated from #90 to #84

Rebooted, Gapps is not installed anymore

Flashed Gapps again

Had to sign in and go through setup again

EOS3 #81 and previous didn't lose Gapps after an update, not sure if a bug or just a side effect of early 4.2.1 updates

EDIT - Overclock is not sticking after a reboot, it knows what it should be set to at boot but always remains at 1000MHz (KAT Kernel 70)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Yeah it's close to that.

Just that full HW acceleration is still not in the official #84 and you still get the partial crazy loop using cpu in #84.

Preview B90 includes these fixes

Better keep the 'B' in front when mentioning the preview version, otherwise it'll get very confusing when the official version reaches the same # than the preview version.

Both numbers have no link, they just increase by one separately on their own at every full build :)

Thanks, went back to B90, flash Gapps and KAT Kernel again at the same time, this time I didn't have to sign back in
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DevourDarkness:
I don't see how that's possible as the launcher not being smooth is currently in the bugs section and it is due to the nav bars for some reason. You haven't hid them have you?

Also, the onscreen keyboard keeps disappearing whenever I tap a letter which isn't fun. I thought that bug was fixed? Or is this just me?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] st0nedpenguin:
I'm just sticking to Tim's builds until we get word the official builds are all ready to go, they seem to be more advanced anyway.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
It's not fixed, but there's a workaround:

Good old random waking has reared its head again

Turned off wifi, hit the lock button on the dock to put it to sleep

Screen turned back on about 10 seconds later with the lock screen
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] WVUTampaAlum:
I was getting slight glitchy/lagginess also and when I went full screen to check out LMT I now get absolutely butter smooth motion in the launcher. Almost there!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] aspros21:
I found something else with the keyboard. When I am trying to write numbers to a numeric shell, my keyboard switches from numbering to letters after each hit and I have to change it repeatedily. (I found it when trying to put my password which contains only numbers, and the password shell (text box) its restricted to accept only numbers)

Every where else I am trying to write numbers, I have no problem. Only to numeric shells.

I am from clean install with B90 and stock kernel.

Sorry if I am missing something and I am reporting this as a bug.:eek:

Sorry for my English.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mariox26:
First of all thanks so much timrudu for your great work, i love so much this rom. really don't know how you people have problem with keyboard. I never had this problem, is working fine for me.

Thanks again timrudu

I noticed that on this rom The Picasa photos are not sync with galleriy.. I think is not a Gapps problem, because i updated them.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] zachf714:
Its only after deep sleep I have it but if you leave 1 app open in the recents it doesn't deep sleep and that fixes it for now :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sttovo:
Yeah, I think 4.2 version of gapps has this function removed. Don't quote me on the that, got it from another thread.

The fix is to delete (I just moved it to a back up location) the Gallery2.apk in /system/apps and copy in the GoogleGallery.apk (get it from an older gapps package) . Then reboot. Sorry I can't find the original thread that had this fix. I think I searched for something like "picasa sync GoogleGallery" in XDA.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Gatak:

I've used Apex and Nova just fine. Also ADW
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AstroTrain:
I will try your suggestion, I appreciate the direct feedback. Besides the impeccable default sound enhancements in 101 I also found the mic capture the best out of any ICS and JB roms out there, never needed to stick my face next to the mic nor shout to get Google Now to recognized what I was saying.

I hope you consider building these defaults into 4.2 in the final version.

Cheers

Running B90 with the respective KAT Kernal. Absolutely love it. I actually like the new layout.

Only problems I am seeing after 12 hours. Google Now slams shut every time I run it. And no GPS?

Uninstall updates, disable hotword detection, reinstall.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fone_fanatic:
With the past 2 builds (B88 & B90; can't remember if it was occuring on B69) sometimes when I wake up the table the dock isn't working. I have to remove the tablet from the dock and re-attach it to be able to type. Not consistent though. Just woke the device up after about 1-1.5 hours of sleep and it's working.

Currently on Kat kernel. Can't remember if this was happening on stock eos kernel or this one, I'll keep note next time it happens.

----update--- Just noticed this is under Known Issues so nevermind!

Also is there a way to show dock battery status next to main battery status on the top right? Currently using Dual Battery from the market an dock battery is in the top left where my notifications are.

I noticed the same thing. Back button keeps switching from custom color to white erratically as it's tapped.

For some reason, before I even messed with the colors, my menu button was black so I couldn't see it, but it was there.

GPS is there. For me first lock to AGES. after that It'll lock, but not as quick as my phone.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] brk:
+1 to dock battery on status next to main battery. CM has it, so it should be possible to port to EOS.

Problems with external disks

I'm using B90 + K.A.T V1.2.0 TF101 with docking.

Details from About:

Kernel Version

2.6.39.4-EOS4-00010-ge25061e

Tue Dec 18

Build Number

EOS JOP40D Nightly

A few observations:

1. Memory stick, 1GB formatted as FAT32 - no issues, reading and writing fine.

2. Memory stick, 64GB formatted as ExFat - The tablet notified that the SD is damaged. Putting it back into my Win7 PC the system complained that that it needs to be formatted - I had the sense to run the Chkdsk /F command to fix it so I did not lose the data.

3. External disk, 2TB formatted as NTFS. The tablet notified that the SD is damaged and offers to format it. This time, connecting it back to the Win7 PC the disk was fine.

All 3 run fine when the tablet was on ICS.

I'll be happy to learn if I need a different kernel or just sit tight until the team fixes vit,

Thank for the terrific ROM - :)

Downloaded and flashed EOS4.2.1-tf101-20121218_previewB90 + Tim_KatKernel_70b_JB4.2_Lidpatch + gapps-jb-20121212-signed and using ApexLauncher and everything works perfectly well to me.

Thx so much timrudu for your great work, you have really made an awesome rom.

4.2.1 Known issues & Workarounds

Basically: make sure you have ejected/unmounted cleanly the drives before using them onto the tablet.

If not, fsck/chkdsk it before.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Joe_Sh:
It still did not work.:(

I always eject/unmount disks before disconnecting.

From Known issues and Workarounds:

- Inserting a big capacity sd or usbdrive containing a volume with errors won't mount ( fsck timeout ?)

=> workaround: fix the errors on the disk with fsck or another util before inserting the disk.

Here is what Win7 reports after chkdsk (equivalent to 'fsck' in Linux):

Volume label is Kingston 64GB.

File and folder verification is complete.

Windows has checked the file system and found no problems.

ROM seems pretty good, but laggy homescreens is a show stopper for me

Hoping this will be fixed soon :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Send a logcat

Just to make sure too, you're talking about B90 or 84 ?

Also have you deactivated auto-rotation to test first ?

But yeah, been working many hours on that, but not easy to find...

Actually I have a test version I can send you, it feels less laggy,

but I don't really use the default launcher so I can't tell that well if it's the way it's supposed to be or not ;)

Default launcher has always felt more laggy than others to me..

But at least I don't really see much difference with or without the navbars now with the default launcher...

app drawer is fast and so on..

Otherwise why not using another launcher in the meantime ? ;)

The default launcher is just homescreens that you can flip and an app drawer..

If the default launcher scroll lag is that critical to the point of not using the rom, why not just use a launcher that works ? ;P
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
B90 yea, if I disable the top and bottom bars its perfectly smooth like #81, with those bars enabled its really juddery

I installed Nova Launcher to see if that helped but it was laggy too

App draw is great, settings is great, but normal homescreen switching is slow and jumpy

#81 was very smooth even after installing the 4.2.1 launcher it was still smooth so not sure why the same launcher would be slow now

PM me the new version if you like or post it here, I`ll be happy to give it a go and see if its improved on B90 :)

EDIT - Yes auto rotation was disabled, I followed all the how-to's for known problems :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Okie, try this one see if it feels better for you:

EOS4.2.1-tf101-20121220_previewB92.zip

Just to make sure we test in the same conditions, could you flash KatKernel too after the rom.

Maybe it's a combination of different things that produce more or less lag in the default launcher...

Also if it still doesn't feel smooth for you, send me the full set of logs and files :

Run these commands in a terminal:

su -

busybox top -n1 > /sdcard/top

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg

logcat -d > /sdcard/lc

include the resulting files: /sdcard/top & /sdcard/dmesg & /sdcard/lc in your post.

And just to have another common comparison

could you install Go Launcher EX and test how it feels for you.

That's the one I'm using and it's 300% smooth here.

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Downloading now, will test with KatKernel and post the logs if there's any problems

And yep I`ll have a go with Go Launcher Ex too :)

--------

EDIT

--------

It does seem better but still quite a bit slower than apps draw and settings and #81 homescreen

I remember you said something about refresh rate being off for the homescreens? I can see each frame redraw albeit very quickly but best way to explain it is its like a fast slideshow instead of a fluid movement like the rest of it (ie apps draw)

Here are the logs you wanted, I forgot to install Gapps so doing that now and will test Go Launcher Ex next

Logs

http://localhostr.com/files/05SyWL7/logs.rar

EDIT 2 - Gapps installed and Go Launcher Ex installed

Go Launcher Ex is 100% smooth, perfect just like #81 if not better

So it seems only the stock launchers homescreens are the problem, of which unfortunately I prefer stock :)

But thanks for the pointer to Go Launcher Ex, I`ll stick with this and hope you find the problem in those logs, if you need anything else testing let me know

EDIT - 3 - Wow, everything is a world faster now I'm not using stock launcher, everything launches 10x faster, the stock launcher must have been causing a load of problems

Only issue I can see now is overclock settings do not stick after a reboot, it states 1400MHz is my boot choice but always boots with 1000MHz, not a biggy as I rarely reboot anyway :)

Ok, so I can replicate the lag if you goto Go Launcher Ex > Preferences > Advanced Settings > Enable High Quality Drawing

Now the homescreen swipe is slower and laggy, not quite as bad as stock but gives you an idea of the problem
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Gatak:
Scripting?

Is there a "fix" to enable stuff in init.d to be launched at boot? for example i'd like to add a file with 'echo "1">/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run' and stuff like that... Seems like it isn't parsed.

ps, are you on #teameos or somewhere else?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
Timduru, is preview B92 good to use or is it preferred to wait for the next one? I'm on preview B90 now and everything is pretty much smooth as silk with Apex Launcher.

[EDIT] Nevermind, I went ahead and took the plunge. I can say that B92 seemed to go through the "Android is upgrading" phase much quicker this time and brought my home screen up faster.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] i9apps:
When u will fix the navbar cause low fps bug, this rom will be perfect...

For me its not that important beacuse i like the no navbar look better :) GestureControl make it perfect.

I found a little bug with the multitasking animation...sometime its give u a black screen before its open the app...i disabled the animation and its work perfect :)

And Tim, there is a a chance u can add User Agent settings to the browser?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
It was working for me the other day on a version or 2 back. Just make sure the first line is "#!/systmbin/sh" and that permissions are set as "rwxr-xr-x" and name it "90yourfilename" according to the order you want it executed. I know you probably already knew all that, but just checking.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] shonkin:
EOS 84 and a BIG...

THANK YOU to RaymanFX and Timduru. I've been running #81 on my TF101 for a while now, and it was good. But -- subjectively w/o a scientific analysis -- I'm *really* liking JB in the new #84 due to it indeed seeming extra buttery. Yum. As in fast and smooth. Can't say how fun it is to find folks willing to freely tweak for others' benefit, and again, just want to say THANKS.

One small (as in non-problematic) issue... the browser does as others have mentioned flicker oddly... on my TF101 I'm seeing a brief while triangular flicker. Nothing else "bad" happens, just the occasional flicker. I'll probably download Dolphin browser and ignore the default one anyway.

And a few "newbie" comments that just might help someone else:

When you go to install the gapps, if you use the Goo app to do it, do NOT install the gapps found in the folder w/ other EOS stuff. And don't install an older one it sometimes defaults to. From Goo's main menu, choose show all apps and then choose gapps. From there, the file w/ 20121212 in it is the file you want. Download it, install it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Legah:
Try Apex too
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] bloodge1:
Does the menu button work for you in LMT? It doesn't work for me and FullScreenToggleV2.apk removes the soft key menu button :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] crisscross3:
Wow. How is B92 different than B90? B92 is smooth and fast--a huge bump up performance wise. Have used KAT kernel for both.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cdkizzle:
Oh darn. Mine doesn't work either.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] st0nedpenguin:
The launcher does feel a tad snappier with the latest test version, for me at least.

B92 or Build#84?

Looks like build#84 was just released yesterday, but everyone's already talking about B92?

Is 84 junk already? Why B92 over 84?

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gilpdawg:
The B builds have TimDuru's tweaks that aren't on the buildbot yet. Stick with those for now, I'd say.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Globespy:
Stick with the 'B's builds or the official EOS ones (aka build#84)?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] st0nedpenguin:
I'm pretty sure that question was answered in the post you quoted.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] asdfzz:
Will try B92
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
init.d support should work fine.

Just make sure you created a proper script and made it executable.

Yeah I think the animations/transitions are too long myself, I tend to prefer to switch them all to 0.5x in developper options.

Yeah can see about adding a few extra features, since I'll be on holiday I won't have much time to work on bigger long time consuming things,

so might as well add a few smaller things like that in the meantime.

Things that come to mind and from what I gathered here:

- 2nd dock battery icon in status bar

- Browser user agent

- kill all button in recent apps

-

Hmm, I don't know the sixaxis app,

but it kinda look as if they are overwriting / installing a custom driver that is not made for JB or something,

and so breaking it.

Was that working with previous roms ?

It might be something that changed in Android 4.2.x and Nova would require an update to work correctly.

We're still cutting edge here, not many apps are made for 4.2.x yet. ;)

Try B92, it'll be even more buttery and it gets rid of most of the flicker cases.

Okie, good then, it looks like B92 does improve things a bit then :)

Yep preview version B92 is good to use.

there are not many changes compared to B90,

but it's basically rebased onto #84, so you get:

- google now overlay on home button fixed

- battery icon should refresh directly in the quick settings panel

+ the usual addition: Hardware acceleration, cpu crazy loop fix in systemui

+ misc optimizations

+ extra modifications to try to improve the default launcher smoothness

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] stealthl:
what is the best gapps package to use with build B92?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fone_fanatic:
+1 for that. BUT no rush, I'd rather all bugs and performance issues be ironed out (although everything is running great on my end) before adding customizations!

Please try to read at least the previous 10 post. goo.im/gapps 12/12/12
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Yeah I agree,

but as some of the bugs require many hours to fix, if ever I can even find the fix,

as on holidays I won't have many consecutive hours to dedicate to that,

I might as well add the other things that I can do because they shouldn't require too long in the meantime :)

And on the other hand as you say, most/all of the bugs either don't impact the usability too much or have a workaround now,

so not sure what is the general preference in priority between fixing things that are not critical anymore for the daily use,

compared to add features that will improve usability :)

Having the nav bar disable on startup would be awesome for those who prefer gesture controls.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] shonkin:
Again, THANK you! Installed via twrp 2.3 and worked like a charm. Flicker gone. Not noticing any other changes yet, but will check in if I do.

I do have one newb question here which I can't find the answer to in this interminably long thread... should I install the KAT Kernel in addition to having installed B92, or is that kernel already a part of B92? And is there a "safe" download of said kernel (as opposed to the many urls I see carrying it but which look, uh, a little shady?

EDIT: Nevermind. I guess I should have clicked the links. http://public.timduru.org/Android/tf101/eos4/#main answers the question. KAT Kernel is OPTIONAL and available from your page.

Thanks again. As the result of your work, I actually had Jelly Bean's newest on my TF101 before my wife had it on her Nexus 7 (which just updated last night, for some odd reason). Hehehe...

Blessings.
