Me too

Great battery life, smoothness and I confess after CM 10.1 nightlies that I switched the launcher to 4.2.1 - I never thought I would say that.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shotty53:
Hello all. I am trying to flash this rom but i get stuck at the jelly bean x on boot,. It changes colors and eventually freezes there. I left the tablet like that for 2 hours and nothing.

current specs

------------------------------

I have twrp 2.5.0.0-4.2 installed

My bootloader seems as if its 10.4.2.20

Android 4.2.2

Kernel inky-ghost-CM10

CM 10.1.20130420-nightly
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sbdags:
You are not on the right bootloader for the latest version. Be CAREFUL! Do your reading before flashing the bootloader / twrp combination. It's very easy to brick a TF300.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shotty53:
what do i need then? i'm a bit confused. An different version of twrp?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] andrewnelson23:
You should definitely wait until you know what you're doing before you flash anything else. This thread title says 10.6.1.15.3 base. I don't know enough about it yet(don't get mine until noon today) but I'd say you should read up before you go flashing different recoveries and such.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Bolandk:
If your tab is on the latest Asus firmware (V10.6.1.15.3), you'll need this version of TWRP. Follow these instructions on how to flash it. Not sure about CWM version.

Cheers

Hi all!

Just updated from my 4.1.1 old blueROM from Oct 2012

Installed the 8.0 version and the updated to 8.2 + compability apps.

Now... what kind of kernel are you guys using?

I've readed somewhere _that's_v3 or hundsbuah?? If so, could you point me out the kernel zip file to download?

And are you setting up any overclock settings? :)

Thank you all :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sbdags:
He's on a previous bootloader - hence why he shouldn't just go flashing any old recoveries. He needs to read the thread in general about how to upgrade otherwise I predict another brick... :(
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
he needs to slow down and tackle one thing at a time and not rush through it
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Vapochilled:
check previous post. Ive upgrade from 4.1.1 with success to 4.2 + TWRP 2.5

Any feedback about the kernel?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Ive only ever used hunds kernel with this rom and you can get it from his thread, i had mine set at 1.15ghz on all cores for balanced and 1.5ghz for all cores on performance and that was fine for me
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Vapochilled:
Done! Working :)

Just and additional note.... my Logitech G930 USB are working with this ROM and this Kernel.

:) However the volume is very low.. but working. I've never had a rom where they were working...
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
i did notice the very low volume aswell
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
Yes

Cm10 is ics basically.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
Your on my original edited ramdiskkernel

And yes flash as you would an update
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
Format your internal. But backup. Titanium and media and dcim
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] tssi:
Thanks for the advice. Funny thing is that I have not yet experience a reboot for the past hour. The SD on the dock still got dismount after each sleep.

I'll monitor it more before reflash.

Edit: spoke too soon. Just rebooted :( reflash it goes...
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] joelalmeidaptg:
I think that issue with card unmounting has to do with the battery save mode for the dock. When the tab goes to sleep, it shuts down the dock, and unmount the card. Try to disable the dock battery save mode and see if it still happens
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] tssi:
All refashed and apps are restored. I Will see if the reboots go away first before attempt to fix the sd dismount.

Thanks for the advice. I will do that next and report back.

Edit: Damn! still reboot. Any suggestion?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] lazer9:
So is the one in the link your latest work or is the one I'm presumably on via the hydro jb the latest and greatest?:fingers-crossed:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
the link is the most updated
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
could be something you are restoring...select restore missing app with data......... do not select restore all apps
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] tssi:
Yes, I always restore missing apps only. This is strange, I never run across this before.

btw, great rom. been using yor skyice as well.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
This is an attempt at creating a perfected jelly bean flash from ics

rooted busyboxed deodexed with the jelly bean bootloaders

a custom modified kernel with init.d bash,nano

and Twrp recovery all flashed into one simple Blob

For ics bootloaders.... duh

but this should

flash jb bootloaders

hopefully rendering the need to use the ota

pointless for custom roms

this will basically

take you from ics bootloaders

directly to hydro rom

jelly bean bootloaders

with twrp jb version

Place Blob in your folder with fastboot..

then open command prompt in that folder

fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob

once it completes reboot tablet

into recovery

and wipe cache and dalvik

then boot to android

Custom Blob

Beta 1

http://d-h.st/OqM
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] KAD79:
I've only found 1 item that will definetely cause a reboot

Incompatible kernel modules

Example cifs manager requires loading cifs.ko via insmod

I'd bet one of the apps you're restoring is trying to load a module that is not compatible with JB
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mhseraph:
Curious: will this custom blob method work for non rooted unlocked ota jb?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
non rooted ota jb

i dunno

it wont hurt it to try
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seshaz:
Is an update uploading??
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] NODO-GT:
Are this tweaks from HYDRO 4 already implemented or are they planed in future release of JB-HYDRO?

-jpeg quality increased
-video quality increased
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] cyberbrain425:
Well I notice there is a much decrease in fps in games like GTA3. Also some apps like Expense Manager runs very slow. Not sure if JB stock has the same issues? Other than that, everything is butterly smooth and fast.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
yup its on purpose

prevents the kernel

from panicking and flashing until reboot
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] seanzscreams:
half was already

and the other half just got implemented tonight
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] cyberbrain425:
so it's JB specific problem? Because those apps were flying when I used your ICS ROM.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Vapochilled:
hum.... So... do you think this a ROM problem and not something?

I had in mind this could still be some USB issue since USB headsets never worked....

Please note im not using any other tool. Just connecting my usb headset.. bamm... I have sound during youtube... music... etc :)

Any ideas?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
It might have been the been the movie i was watching but is defiantly quieter than cromi
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] SoonHD2:
I have couple questions i want to know. 1. how mutch should this rom qive me score at quadrant? As im getting 3600 with performance mod and it seems quite low? And 2nd is there any whay to make the i/o poor performance any better?

Im only using this as my "pc" so i dont use this often but when i use this to download some files or create some word , exel ect this feels so laggy compared to my ipad4 :(
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
If you get sbdags kernel installer from his thread and use to flash _thats kernel you will be able to disable fsync which really stops the lag, and then if you need it even faster go to hunds thread and flash his kernel and app and you can over clock it so its even faster,
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] SoonHD2:
I downloaded sbdags kernel and was about to install it but then i looked it and it 10.6.1.14.1 and this rom is 10.6.1.15.3 can i install that kernel still or will there be some complications?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Nope its perfectly fine mate its what i did and its the best way to disable fsync
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] SoonHD2:
I did it and boy did this get faster :) thanks! One more question can i install some OC kernel whitout loosing fsync disabled option? I just want to squees every possible speed that this tablet is able to give :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
yes mate as long as the kernel supports it your golden but they all do as far as i know :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shotty53:
I think i got it.

It's just that this is the first android device that seems so complicated.

Correct me if im wrong. I need to update my firmware and kernel with the following files

TF300T-US_10_6_1_15_3-UpdateLauncher.zip

TF300T_kernel_10_6_1_15_3.zip

After, i need to install the twrp that is 2.5.0.0-JB-4.2

Then i can flash this rom?

My evo, evo 3d, and galaxy s3/s4, were never this complicated or had the chance of bricking. Now i remember why i left it the way it was when i first started toying with the tablet.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ch3mn3y:
First zip is launcher only as name says. I think u just need to flash zip with the newest firmware (and kernel) from asus website via recovery (or better blob file using fastboot), than flash new recovery for 4.2 and after that this rom

Sent using tf300t - stock 4.2.1 (rooted)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shotty53:
All i see is the launcher file on the asus website. I looked throughout the asus site and that is all i see.

TF300T-WW_epad-10_6_1_15_3-UpdateLauncher
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ch3mn3y:
Ahh. Ok its name of the file and inside u have blob file. As i know (im nor sure if its right, but should be) inside blob is everything includin kernel so u shouldnt need this kernel zip

Sent using tf300t - stock 4.2.1 (rooted)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shotty53:
Yeah the blob is there. Once i get home i'll do the wipe and install. Already have a twrp bkp of a working state for the tf300t. Thanks for the help!!!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] andrewnelson23:
After you upgrade all you need to do is root it with motochopper and install custom recovery and you can flash hydro 8. I did have some problems with fastboot and adb because for 4.2 they were updated and the 4.1 files won't work. So when you need access to adb or fastboot, which you will in order to flash the recovery(I used adb because its easy, but you can also do it with fastboot), you will need the to update to the 4.2 files for adb and fastboot. Rather than download the entire SDK, you can just post here if you need them and I can share them, or someone else as I don't get off work for another 5 hours. :p
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shotty53:
Well, i tried to install the zip via twrp and it would constantly fail. I eventually gave up and used fastboot to transfer the blob.

I left the tablet for like 10 minutes. Came back and transfer/write was complete. Rebooted via fastboot.

I left the tablet for 30 minutes and it was stuck on stock asus boot.

Said "**** it" and rebooted into bootloader. Noticed it was the new one and fastbooted twrp 2.5.0.0-JB-4.2.

Rebooted into twrp and flashed Hydro8 and left it alone and it booted up fine.

YAY!!!!

Thanks everyone for the help.

Gotta apply updates now.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] brianaudio:
is hydro 8 fpr 4.2.1 bootloaders? im kinda confused. im on 10.6.1.15.3 cromi-x. am i good to go with this rom? thanks
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
yes mate you can i have done it a few times while testing things
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] andrewnelson23:
Ahh I had to have root to flash the recovery since I used adb. Perhaps it's unnecessary if you use fastboot to flash the recovery?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] PR_phandroid:
Quick question, I'm still on Hydro 7. So I have to extract only the system.blob file from the full firmware ZIP from ASUS, version 10.6.1.15.3, then upgrade TWRP, then flash Hydro 8? I have the US SKU, do I need to flash the WW update?

Thanks.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] adamsaur:
Get the firmware from the asus site, then flash it. Then flash a recovery (recommend twrp) via adb/fastboot, then flash the newest hydro.

If you look at the CROMI-X post there is a link to upgrading that is really easy to follow :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
thats right mate but you dont need the ww update as thats just for us guys not in the us and like the keyboard to have the right layout lol
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
So I just tried to upgrade from Hydro 7. Did all my wipes as normal and installed hydro 8. Now I seem to be stuck in a boot loop. Am i missing something? did I just brick myself?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Did you update to the latest stock asus firmware before flashing hydro 8 mate?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
no i did not
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Thats your problem then mate there is a guide in the general section on how to update and relash twrp, i usec the fast boot method but do that then flash hydro but make sure you read it all twice to make sure you know what your doing and ask if you dont :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
thanks. which firmware do i need to update too in order to be able to flash hydro 8? I really thought all hope was lost but luckily i can still boot to TWRP
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
No mate you should still be fine but all the info is the guide but its the newest stock firmware mate

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------

Here is the guide to update http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39069538
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
ok well it seems i have everything i need to start the process, my main question is when i run motochopper do i need my tablet to be in recovery or off or what?

Edit: I tried turning my tablet to fastboot but it doesnt seem to do anything once i run motochopper
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
No mate you dont need motochopper that is for getting root access but hydro has root by default, all you need to do is update to the latest asus firmware, fastboot the right twrp (make sure its the right one and the guide will tell you which one) then use twrp to flash hydro and then boot your tablet (you have to let it boot) then boot back to recovery(twrp) then flash the hydro update then boot and the back to twrp if you need to fas the ww patch. It sounds harder than it is mate lol
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
i might be looking at the wrong guide. This http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1845377 is the one I was using but it doesnt seem to help me get to 4.2. unless im missing something. I downloaded it from the asus site but when i try to flash it in TWRP it just says failed
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
i havnt used that guide so not sure how good it is, but use this guide and do the fastboot method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44014018
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
Hmm, it wont let me flash the asus firmware from TWRP. I've done fastboot before but it was a while ago and I don't really remember how to flash the firmware via fastboot

Edit: According to another guide I should just be able to flash the firmware from TWRP, but when I try doing that it just gives me a failed message.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
to flash with fastboot you have to download the zip file from asus then extract it and it will give you another zip file then you need to extract the second zip file and the blob file is there, if you want to use twrp then you download the zip file from asus and extract it once and then use that zip file
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
thanks for all the help. I was able to get 4.2.1 on my tablet. I'm assuming now i just need to install the proper TWRP and then I can flash hydro 8?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Yep mate but be sure its the right one, the one in that guide is the easiest way to find it then yep just flash hydro then boot tablet and leave it for 5-10 mins then flash then update and if needed leave 5-10 mins then flash the ww patch :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sotong9392:
I have WW 10_6_2_6 version now instead of 10.6.1.15.3, TWRP 2.5.0.0 installed, what is the correct way to install hydro 8?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
Argh, so I was able to update my tablet to 4.2.1 successfully. I got TWRP 2.5.0.0 on as well and I flashed Hydro 8 from it and now its back to being stuck in a boot loop. Any other suggestions you can give me?

Edit: makes it to the nexus boot logo and then starts the loop again. Often freezes when on the X and then restarts
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
ok mate what you need to do is redownload hydro and make sure hydro (and i like to keep the stock rom too) is on your sd card (not internal memory) and make sure twrp can read your sd card before you do anything else, then in twrp you need to wipe your data so go to wipe/format data and type yes then once it has wiped hit back and swipe for a factory reset, now your tablet is completly clean so now flash the first part hydro and wipe dalvic and cache then let it boot, then we can go from there once its done
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] p4ranoid4ndroid:
I honestly don't know what I did differently but it finally worked! Thank you so much again for your help, been using hydro since like hydro 4 and I can't picture my transformer without it
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
happy days mate now if you need the ww patch you need to flash that next the let that boot then flash the 8.2 update, but if you dont need the ww patch just go for the 8.2 update and wipe the dalvic and cache after everything you flash :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] baistan:
So to be clear for my self i will write all steps for my situation and if i miss or have something wrong please correct me.

Now i'm with Hydro 7 , Android 4.1 , TWRP 2.4.3.0

1.Download and flash latest official rom witch is V.10.6.1.27.1 (or must use right 10.6.1.15.3 ???) think to use fastboot method.

2.Download and flash TWRP 2.5.0.0

3.Download Hydro 8 and flash trought TWRP

4.Flash WW Compatibility and 8.2 update.

Hope this is the right procedure .
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Yep mate thats right but i would use 10.6.1.15.3 as thats what this is based off, i dont think it would make a difference but better to be safe
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] twynn:
US SKU or WW SKU

Do you need to flash the compatibility zip if you are US SKU ?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
nope this rom is setup as US and you only need to flash the ww patch if you want the ww setup so you just need to flash hydro 8 then hydro 8.2 update
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bflatmajor:

You need to match the correct version of twrp with the version of boot loader you have. I had double screen because I had bootloader 10.1.8 and used twrp 2.5. The correct version for me, because I didn't update the bootloader, is version 2.4.
