[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Lol I forgot about my backup... let me try that now.

Did u wipe system before restore your backup?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Yep...I wiped everything and even confirmed it was clean using the file manager in TWRP before flashing.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Do you remember if you were able to access your files on Zeus rom after flashing jb?

I'm trying to restore my backup and I've been stuck on the Asus screen with the loading circle
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
I think so...but I think it may have had an issue mounting my Sandisk UHC1 32GB card (this has been problematic with the 700 anyways). I may be mistaken though...I've been crack flashing lately. I do know that I had no problem restoring my .26 backup though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
I'm getting worried... I'm still stuck on the Asus screen with the loading circle... the circle is moving but the rom isn't booting.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
Install the Asus stock rom (you will get back to stock recovery too), then flash a custom recovery again and use it to restore your favorite backup.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
I can't even dl anything BC it doesn't read my memory
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Can you see any of your storage from TWRP?
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Yes I can see internal and external from twrp... my kernal on Zeus rom says 2.6.39.4-bjr-r1-gba92d30 hiemanshu@fnv-acai) ) isn't that the cm10 kernal
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Yeah...sounds like you got something going on. My Zeus kernel is 2.6.39.4 android@Mercury #1.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Lol what the heck do I do... how can I flash the stock rom
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Can you try wiping everything (cache/dv-cache/data/system) and then installing an ICS rom again? Maybe something screwed up when you went from JB to ICS. After you wipe everything, confirm all is clear using TWRP's file manager under the advanced button. Then try installing an ICS rom. Worth a shot, I suppose.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
OK I'm going to try that now

Edit: in twrps file manager there's folder but nothing inside the folders. Is that normal?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Yes
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Did that flashed back to Zeus and still have the same kernal... lol wtf. Should I try going back to jb then restoring my backup or Zeus again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
That is weird!?!?

Are you still unable to see your storage? If not, you may want to reflash the JB rom you had before...see if you can see your storage. Maybe from there you can try reflashing to stock like another poster mentioned. I'm at a lost...you're just going to have to hack around until you can get a good flash.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Still can't access storage... I'm going to try to back to jb now

Lol back on jb and everything works fine...

Nope... still not working... going to try and flash stock later but how would I do that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
It looks like this will do it -- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1803343

I've not done this, but people say it works. Hopefully, it will get your tab back to normal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Thanks but I'm a little scared to try that only BC I'm on jb and not ics
[Asus Transformer TF700] lafester:
Did you flash the tf300 JB? If not then you will be fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Idk I flashed cm10... if I was to fix permissions in twrp when should I do it before wiping, after wiping, before flashing or after flashing. I say this BC I noticed when I'm on cm10 when I'm in root explorer it shows that all my directories are r/w and I thought the default was r/o. Idk if that means anything

---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

OK first of all thanks to everybody that helped me...

I got everything up and running normally... what I did was flashed this rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=29520942

And it flashed back the stock kernal. For some reason Zeus rom doesn't flash a kernal or a kernal isn't included in his rom and that was my problem this whole time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
Glad you got it!
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
Thanks... i was ready to throw my infinty in the garbage lol
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
pretty sure zeus includes a kernel with his rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
I was sure of that too but for some reason flashing his rom wouldn't flash the kernal. And I tried about 5 times.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
Zeus rom kernel have init. d support wich stock rom doesn't and i'm sure that when i've installed Zeus rom the init. d scripts were working so it seems that Zeus kernel was installed correctly.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Question for clarification:

Going back and forth between ICS and JB roms should be fine, right? I know I need to wipe everything prior to doing so, but besides that, nothing special, correct?

It sounds like the only thing that may be funky is if one flashed the TF300 JB rom on the 700. Correct? I've read this does make some other changes.

I'm running Zeus right now, but the android.process.media keeps crashing on me. Could that be happening because I installed a JB rom prior to Zeus? It was the black bean rom, not the TF300 JB rom. I've cleared the data for the media storage service, but after it rebuilds its database, it crashes again. Any ideas?

@gmfeny - Glad you got your tab back to normal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
The way I take it is your fine doing so as long as you don't flash a rom with the tf300 bootloader
[Asus Transformer TF700] eyosen:
Can there an offending media file that's causing it? Try moving all media files to your pc and see what happens.

I had cm10 alpha and switched to Zeus 4 with no such problems.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Thanks guys...I'll try clearing my storage and see what happens.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ImYoungxD:
I just installed this rom and I was wondering if I need to add any tweaks for build.prop. I just added the DPI one. Anything else that I should add?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Zeus already tweaked the build.prop with most of the known tweaks that are worth it, so there shouldn't be much that you need to do in terms of tweaking...
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
@Zeus - any chance of getting the new OTA (.30) incorporated into your ROM - sounds like it fixes a few issues that some folks are having with memory cards, BT sync, etc...

Thanks - welcome back!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Yeah...that would be good. I see some reports where it looks like the dock firmware may have possibly been updated (or at least it's showing differently).

I'm thinking we will not be able to get dock updates since we're unlocked. Anybody have any ideas how we'll get those?
[Asus Transformer TF700] acessford101:
Couldn't access storage, finally had to set the permissions by hand. Folder to.folder.

Apps not restoring from google play

Hi everyone,

i just took the leap and unlocked (after spending a month ensuring no build quality probs) and have installed this fine ROM first thing. Unfortunately, Google play is not automatically pushing my apps to my tablet. Has done this for all my phone roms and when I first started up my Infinity. Anyone else had this, or even better, has anyone found a way to prompt the push?

Thanks for any help you can give,

What jb rom did you flash
[Asus Transformer TF700] acessford101:
Baked Black Bean v3. After I installed it it was unusable because I forgot to flash data or system so I just went back to This one. I'm taking it the kernal is the wrong one.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mykew:
Are we able to apply the .30 update to zeus? if so, ww or us?

Edit: Never mind, I flashed the us sku and it worked fine. nothing got wiped.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jpearn:
But if we flash the .30 update on Zeus 4.0 do we lose the kernel init.d support ?? I'm guessing it would also change the build.prop, but that's easy enough to backup . . .
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Yeah, I would think that by installing the .30 OTA on top of Zeus ROM, that you are basically reverting back to stock ROM at that point...

@Zeus - any plans to update your ROM to include the .30 release any time soon? If not, I may try reverting back to stock, just to see what the update brings (I can always get back to Zeus if I decide to).

I would just rather not do this if you plan on incorporating .30 relatively soon as it's a *lot* of work! :)

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
That's what I'm thinking. I don't have my tab with me to see the kernal but I don't think that is the right one. Try flashing a stock rooted rom then going back to Zeus. For some reason when I tried flashing his rom it wasn't flashing the kernal
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Are you guys reverting to stock rom and recovery using the instructions here? -- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1803343

Or are you simply flashing the stock rom available on Asus' website with TWRP/CWM?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mykew:
I just flashed the zip from Asus. Kept all my settings etc.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Droid_X_Fan:
Okay, thanks. So, it sounds like if we want to restore the factory recovery and stock rom, all we need to do is flash the Asus rom from TWRP. Good to know. Of course, this will not re-lock it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jpearn:
I took the plunge with the US dlpkgfile.bin (11MB), removed the checks from the updater-script and used CWM to flash the .zip file. Cleaned /cache and Dalvik then fixed permissions.

I had used OTA rootkeeper, but build.prop and root remained intact, bootloader updated after 1st reboot, everything else seems to have updated OK I think (now have the OTA update option in settings again).

Edit, seem to have lost CWM, just reflashing now !
[Asus Transformer TF700] rsbuffalo:
Where do I download the .30 OTA update?
[Asus Transformer TF700] hack777:
You can download the .30 OTA update here but as of today it was pulled from the site for some reason. Check back tomorrow to see if it's up there again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zeus34:
somebody can upload newest Asus update ?

I Try to start weekend 5.0 development
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
I can upload the OTA update (dlpkgfile) if you want .

EDIT: Here is the link
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
I was only able to find a copy of the OTA update patch as well. I took the longer route though since I was on the Baked JB rom. Flashed the full .26 firmware through TWRP and then applied the patch and let it do it's thing. A fastboot flash of TWRP and a restore of my latest backup got me back to Baked JB.

Looking forward to trying out Zeus 5.0 =)
[Asus Transformer TF700] yaoops:
+1 on both the Thanks and the welcome back !

Generally: I noticed some impatience hereabouts...

Let's summarize this a bit:

RomMaker with kinda greek nick had health issues, his notebook died on him and then there was a household move...

Come on (all), give Zeus a break :)

Take your time, Zeus, 4.0 still rocks and will continue to do so.

Latest OTA 30 got pulled by ASUS, btw, there's got to be a catch, apply caution :-/

Sent on my behalf by my nuclear driven XPhone using CommonSense 3.14
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
If I remember correctly the .26 update was pulled for a bit as well.

I personally am not being impatient for another release from Zeus. There are plenty of other new options popping up to keep flashaholics happy for a while. I just noted that he asked for the update file so I imagine he'll be working on it soon.
[Asus Transformer TF700] seesser:
Great work on your Rom and I too wait eagerly for 5.0.

One question I have is with afew games by EA like dead space will not download because the Rom is not USA based. Can you post a Build.prop with USA setting?

Just wondering because on market I get not compatible but the EA website says yes. So I side loaded it from a backup from my prime and it runs but I get an error when downloading additional files. The error is about a country gate ie not USA tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
you probably just need to edit the region entry so it says ro.product.locale.region=US
[Asus Transformer TF700] seesser:
Will try this out thank you.

Edit: setting was that already. Also tried to adjust wifi from GB to US but no luck.
[Asus Transformer TF700] smalis:
While this ROM very nicely increased my Quadrant from 41xx to 46xx, I am back to stock for now, as I could not run WeatherBug or Rainy Days, and IRule would FC often. And, some large widgets (Jorte, Business Calendar) just would not load. Very nice ROM, I will follow its progress.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Larry Fortune:
How do you know if you are using Zeus Rom

Rooted, unlocked TWRP, SuperU, flashed Zeus Rom, did the .30 update.

Everything is running extremely well!!

Someone posted that Weatherbug dosen't run under Zeus. My Weatherbug Elite is working fine...

Maybe I lost Zeus somehow??

Is there a way I can tell if indeed I am still on Zeus Rom??
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
If you flashed the .30 update you are probably on the .30 stock rom with the stock recovery and no longer rooted. Have you checked About Tablet and any root app to see?
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
Hmmm. Have you tried Deeco's modified Play Store app yet? It strips out the country check.

I'm having a problem getting my sd card to mount. I was running 4.0 and tried flashing the JB, which isn't stable and can be used as a DD....I wiped everything and flashed 4.0 with no problems other than my screen resolution looks more crisp however the icons and notification bar are smaller(not sure if its meant to be.) And I can't get my sd card to mount. TWRP recognizes it in recovery, I also used my GS3 as a host to see if the sdcard may be damaged and it opens fine on my phone and when i connect to the pc.

There are tons of interactive ways that the military can incorporate smartphones into everyday operations. Only problem is the potential for stupid soldiers installing malicious software and compromising the network. There have been several test programs carried out with smartphones in the past few years but everything hinges on the security of the platform.

I'll probably be retired before this comes to fruition
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
@Zeus (or anyone that knows the answer for sure) - is your ROM deodexed or odexed?

Thanks.

Do you see files with .odex extension in your /system/app dir? :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] willjohnson:
Dont know what the deal with this rom and my tablet is, but i tried this rom first after unlocking and could never get root with it. I installed other roms and had no problems with root. I updated yesterday to the newest firmware from Asus (.30US) and was able to root fine with the newest version of Debugfs root method. I installed this rom again to try it all over (getting tired of the problems from CM10 and JB builds, was gonna go with modded stock build for a little bit) and actually lost root installing this rom. Really strange.

Edit - Don't know what happened when i installed this rom this time, but for some reason i lost half the stuff on my internal storage, about 28GB worth of music, all my app backups, pretty much the most important stuff on there. This was not some dumb mistake on my part either, i know all the data was on the device before hand because i had accessed the file manager prior to flash and all was still intact. Really blows.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gmfeny:
What rom did you come from
[Asus Transformer TF700] :
Really strange. Never had any issue with it
[Asus Transformer TF700] willjohnson:
Yep, reaaalllly strange. I have flashed a lot of roms on several different devices, never had anything like this happen. Thats why you always make backups, except in my case, you even lose those lol.

In answer to gmfeny's above post i was on stock .26 Rom, the one used to flash before Zeus to get the bootloader back after being on BBB3. I got reflashed back to the Deoedexed and Rooted .26 build, just have to start all over and lost all saved games, backups, gonna take forever to get everything back. Just one of the risks you take flashing custom stuff i guess, unexpected, really strange outcomes lol. Gonna just stick with the stock deodexed and rooted build until some more stable AOSP builds come out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
If I understand things correctly (and I may not) - the .26 firmware doesn't "get the bootloader back" - you'd need to flash .30 to get the ICS bootloader back if you were previously on the TF300 JB bootloader. Maybe that is why you were having issues? Again, I may not understand your exact situation correctly though.

Since the full .30 is available on Asus' website now and it is known to restore the ICS bootloader (even if you had flashed the TF300 JB bootloader), maybe that woould be the best way to back to ICS bootloader, then try installing Zeus 4.0?

Can anyone confirm my assumptions above? Admittedly, I haven't followed the TF300/JB bootloader issue very closely...
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
you are correct. the .30 bootloader will flash over the top of the TF300T JB bootloader.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboy2oo:
Im not sure how to install this safely. I rooted and unlocked my device. I download GooManager and installed OpenRecovery twrp. do i just flash this rom. It seems too simple to be safe
[Asus Transformer TF700] Larry Fortune:
That's what I did

Thats just what I did...TWRP makes flashing very simple and easy. I cleared both cashes and did a full backup with TWRP just in case. Then I "Installed" Zues...Worked like it should have.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Neuman.Tim:
Came from bbb3 , Restored my stock rooted backup first and then flashed. Running smoothly right now, love it!
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboy2oo:

Nope - there are no overclocked kernels for the TF700 yet. It does, however, run *very* well! :)

Does anyone have a workaround for this 'issue'?

EDIT: fixed it! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Mind explaining what you did to fix it, in case others run into the same issue?

Am I correct in saying that you need to use a third-party launcher in order to change the DPI? I would like to try it, but I always end up returning to the stock launcher, mainly due to instability and/or bugs with Nova/Apex - just wanted to confirm if you need a third-party launcher or not.

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Bravo Kwintalio:
Trying to flash this rom using twrp im rooted bootloader unlocked and downloaded latest md5 download but when i force twrp to check for md5 file it always fails? What am i missing or doing wrong lol?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ka1z0ku:
Not technically but it allows you to select 1.7Ghz in SetCPU for max freq... stock only selects up to 1.6
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
You don't need a 3rd party launcher.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
So I can set DPI to 240 and have no issues with the stock launcher? I could have sworn I saw posts about the stock launcher getting into a force-close loop after re-setting the DPI (at least for certain DPI values)...

Thanks!

EDIT: Just to be safe, I just set Nova Prime to be my default launcher (had previously purchased it) and set the DPI to 240 originally, but found that was *too* small. So far, I've settled on 200, which still gives me *much* more screen real-estate without making text too small to easily read (hey, I'm getting old!).

The more that I thought about it, I really need to use a third-party launcher anyway in order to take advantage of the new screen real-estate, so I never even tried it with stock. I did find threads saying that it will *not* work properly with stock launcher though, so I'm kinda glad that I didn't try it! :)

I can have so much more useful information on my home screen now (can fit way more widgets) and I love being able to see so much at once in the browser, etc also. Very cool...
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
Yeah I usually put mine at 200 as well. =)
[Asus Transformer TF700] adelancker:
Of course!

Sorry for not doing so in the first case! :)

Anyway: you go into a (root reachable) file manager.

You go into system, there you should find a text called build.prop, right?

Then you longpress that text to get to the open with option.

There you choose the text editor.

Then look for a line that says: ro.sf.lcd_density=160

Using the text editor change that 160 to any DPI you might like.

I chose 224 and I am happy with the result.

Also note that you don't need a third party launcher or anything special to change the DPI on this ROM, it is however way SAFER to use one, because the device might not start up, when you change the DPI in the stock launcher ;).

I hope this text helped. If so; you know what buttone makes other people know this actually worked or not :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
Anything smaller than 260 makes the xda app fonts too small for these old eyes. :eek:

yeah just add it to build.prop if it isn't there already.
