Running Clemsyn 1.8 650 gpu.. Fsync disabled
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Wow! :cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Try this patch - just rented and pinned a movie in google movies so assuming it will work for you as well :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
wat are the positives and negatives of disabling fsync?
[Asus Transformer TF700] :
I haven't had any issues with PowerAmp from the beginning of the CleanROM series or since with CR Inheritance.

I use Equalizer (the one by 'Smart Android Apps', there are more than one by same name) which I've found the most stable (though not 100%) for boosting system sound. BUT, the one app it doesn't have any effect on is PowerAmp! So what I did is create a couple custom presets - one with full Preamp and one with full everything, then select one of those when I need a boost in PowerAmp.

First, thanks for all the great work you're doing to keep Scott's excellent CleanROM going!

I'm on your 2.5.3 using Clemsyn 1.8/700 kernel with 213 dpi, just ran Quadrant and got 6482, which is typical on the Clemsyn kernels since Scott began using them at the default 240. No fsync or Data2SD either, and I've tried 200 and 160 too with similar scores.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Positive: Your device will be faster.

Negative: You will lose data when your tablet crashes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricco333:
Yes that kernel is the stock tf300 overclocked to 1.6ghz and optimized I have used it since Scott started the CleanRom for the tf300. It works great and now it has cifs support.
[Asus Transformer TF700] NixZero:
This rom works perfectly on my tf300tg with untermensch 3g kernel (3g working), if you could add the option to aroma and create a thread in tf300 forum would be great!
[Asus Transformer TF700] usern ameisval idandnot:
Could someone please link a youtube how to install this? I read the 5 point list and it only confuses me more than helps! HELP :D

I dont know how to unlock the bootloader from the newest android version. The instructions say that I only can unlock the bootloader on 4.0. :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] Lurkerdownbelow:
I had an odd issue when installing CleanRom. I choose to not install a kernel and use the Nexus 7 boot animation. The rom installed but hung on loading. I tried restarting a few times to no avail. I then reinstalled (after again wiping cache, dalvik, syste, and doing a factory restore - but this time I choose one of the Clemsyn's kernels and the regular boot animation - and this time it worked. Now I'm going to go try it out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] THunDA:
You have to install a kernel, im assuming that he put an option to not install kernel if someone wanted to use something different.. or for people using the tf300.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Lurkerdownbelow:
Yeah, I had assumed that it would defaulted back to the stock kernel that I had been using. You know what they say about assuming...:eek:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Gkillratio:
I used the unlocker from Asus.com it says it only works for ICS, but I was on JB when I used it. Worked fine.

Google play is now working great. Do you have a hack for the new Hulu Plus? It used to work but Hulu did something and Hulu Plus is no longer working. The old Hulu stills working fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
Are you disabling fsync or using data2sd? After a fresh reboot I ran quadrant again and was 3790.. something's knackered I figure. I will put the individual scores in case it gives anyone any ideas I might try.

Total: 3790

CPU: 11950

Mem: 1937

I/O: 3955

2D: 111

3D: 999
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Someone posted a link to working DRM apps earlier. Let me have a look.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
If I disable fsync I get 6500. Something is stealing from yours.

Everything is lower by 30% than it should be.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Just ran Quadrant again for grins...

This is what my tab is getting in performance fsync enabled and force gpu 2D on.

Just posting for reference.

Coming from the ground up
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Wow

Just disabled Fsync and forced gpu rendering. :angel:
[Asus Transformer TF700] carter15:
Hello,

how I can disable fsync and force 2d gpu?

Thanks

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I will provide a patch in the next version for Fsync (with caution warning). Force gpu is done from developer settings
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Yep fsync off really pushes things into outer space!

Scott left a download for fsync off on the first page of the original CleanROM thread.

Fsync is not the same as asus sync. :cyclops:
[Asus Transformer TF700] jokapo:
Asus Sync is a waist of space and sources
[Asus Transformer TF700] ghenarys:
So how to disable it ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] pdc419:
Turning off fsync ups your chances of corrupting your data. Just thought I'd put that out there for those who may not know.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Install the patch from the clean rom 2.4 thread.

Yes excercise caution please. If your tablet crashes there is a real danger of corrupted data.

I've been testing it for 24hours. :cowboy:
[Asus Transformer TF700] singoutout:
I am still on 2.4 original CleanRom with fsync disabled and I have several crashes (usually due to a certain number of screen rotation). I have never lost any data or had any problem related to a crash. In theory there is a risk to have fsync disabled, but has any of you guys experienced data lost after a crash and having fsync disabled ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
More of a risk if you freeze crash or get a forced reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pdc419:
I had it happen once on my gnex, and once was enough
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
Here were my results after reverting to 2.4 (and changing dpi)

2.5.3 (213 dpi) - 2.4 (240 dpi)

Total: 3790 - 4970

CPU: 11950 - 13411

Mem: 1937 - 3596

I/O: 3955 - 5485

2D: 111 - 147

3D: 999 - 2211

I'd love to move up the rom - but trying to keep the same results - these changes shouldn't just be due to a change in dpi, is it?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Try using 240dpi on 2.5.3 what does it give you?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
I'll advise. 240dpi on 2.4 with fsync off, forced 2d is 5725, so that seems right (cpu 14,771, mem 3869, i/o 6912, 2d 667, 3d 2405 )
[Asus Transformer TF700] tyfoxx:
Thanks ----Still can't get either PowerAmp or Equalizer to work..I am a bit of an Audiofile so I'm somewhat disappointed, other that that my Device is smoking 7000+ in Quadrant and occasionally crack 15000 in AnTuTu when in performance mode. My device is used daily as net/notebook replacement and is the envy of iSheep crowd especially when they realize that it is a functional productivity device....only wish i can say the same thing when i throw the Beats headset on.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
OK - 2.5.3 with fsync off / forced rendering - 4836 (cpu 12,296, mem 2968, i/o 7144, 2d 333, 3d 1340 )
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I don't have PowerAmp but I do have Equalize. I'll test them out later after I put together 2.5.4. for tonight's release.

Have you tried a complete wipe / factory reset to eliminate something else causing the issue?

That is far too low....

Same setting's here and I'm getting nearly 7000 total.

You may need to think about a factory reset - something you have installed is stealing cpu cycles. Have you tried killing all processes first?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jettubby:
Installed 2.53 over cleanrom 2.4

- stock launcher

- 240 US dpi

- 650 kernel

- fsync off

- force gpu on 2D (this made a huge difference..800 points and reduced jitters
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Version 2.5.4. Release coming tonight

Hopefully this should be released tonight ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
I did a factory reset from TWRP and fresh install of 2.5.3 - have not tried killing all processes first. Only thing I did was factory reset / cache / dalvik / format system, installed 2.5.3, installed fsync off zip from earlier link, rebooted, install quadrant, forced rendering, chose performance, ran benchmark. Did I miss something?
[Asus Transformer TF700] BoosterSilver:
On CR 2.4 with stock launcher i'm running several widgets on each screen (Flipboard, APW, HDW, SeriesGuide, and some music players) and there's about an 8 second lag in reloading all icons and widgets when rotating the screen between portrait and landscape.

Would that lag drop with CRI 2.5.3?

Second :p.

I'm going to try 1275mv

@sbags What were your benchmark scores on the the undervolts? Stable w/o lag?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes - ran quadrant quite a number of times on 1275mv and no crashes. Doesn't seem to get so hot which is good.

Your mileage may vary though....
[Asus Transformer TF700] :
Thanks ! Awesome :eek:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Buehlar:
Good to know, I love the speed gains but the heat has always been disconcerting.

Do you have a link where I can get just the kernals so I don't have to flash the whole ROM each time whilst benching?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Get them HERE

You've just given me an idea. I'll see if I can make an option just to flash the kernels and nothing else :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] TitanUranus:
If you are suffering from low scores, maybe you still have the old bootloader. Do a full update to the latest official firmware (there's some instructions on these forums somewhere) then start again. I had a similar problem, the old bootloader just wouldn't allow overclocking and capped the speed at something relatively low. Hope that helps sort out your problems.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
Great - thanks again for your hard work... you're a machine! I ran my scores again (higher volt option during install) and I'm not able to break through the 12k barrier in quadrant so it makes me think that my cpu isn't very capable to OC. Anyone recommend a good oc tool / stability check so I can test it out?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jettubby:
Now there's a great idea! :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] tyfoxx:
Thanks - - - - I have done as you have suggested several times, however; the same result... I think I'm gonna perform a full wipe and start over with 2.5.4. So we are comparing the same things.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Buehlar:
That would be an awesome option. I'm full of ideas but you're on your way to making a great ROM for those that want stock with all the tweeking options. A true hardcore geeks fantasy!

Thanks for the link. BTW you're definitely on my Christmas list ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ghenarys:
Poweramp for great for me on 2.5.3.

Flashing 2.5.4 in progress...
[Asus Transformer TF700] tf201:
Thanks taking the ball with this ROM and happy thanksgiving.

Do you think you could have an option that disables fsync and allows overclock. Unfortunately the data speed issue has some roots in syncing with Tegra 3 and increasing the clock seems to make it worse, which is why you can get better IO speeds in Balanced by default then Performance. I don't know about underclocking but I ran 1.6 on a tf201 (200mhz oc) with fsync disabled and never had a serious issue.

*IO performance based on SQLite inserts
[Asus Transformer TF700] eckka:
Thanks for the update.

I really like the new Aroma interface. :good::good:

Is there any way to change the typo at the top of the install screen "Please wait until it finisheD" or is this a part of the original installer and therefore incapable of being edited. The word we're looking for is FINISHES.

Cheers,

Eric

I just re-read this and realise it comes across as very 'nit-picky' but with such a classy job on everything else why spoil it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I'll update it for next time :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] ghenarys:
Thx for the update !

Can you please remind me the differences between the 3 Clemsyn's kernel versions ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
They all overlock the CPU to 1.8GHz.

First one OCs the GPU to 650MHz

Second and Third OC the GPU to 700MHz

The main difference between 2 & 3 is the voltage is 50mv higher for #3 to give extra stability for those Transformers that need it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sorry I think you have misunderstood or I'm not getting you - You can choose any of the clemsyn kernels for Over Cloocking as well as disabling fsync.. The only thing I have disabled with fsync is the possibility to Under Volt.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ghenarys:
Thx

With one is the best when wanting to use undervolting in aroma ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Personally I'd use the 650 one ;) But any seem to work at the moment. 650 will give you better battery life.

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:

Guys I have made a mistake for the installer for the kernels in Aroma. It will only install the top one - clemsyn 1.8ghz stock 650. The other options don't actually flash the kernel. No harm done... :good:

Please either install the kernel you want manually or use my new kernel installer which rectifies the issue. For those with a TF700 please don't flash the TF300T Kernel.

I will update with 2.5.5 tomorrow with this fix also applied.

Apologies :o

[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
Guys,

be careful with the 700 GPU kernel and fsync off. Although setcpu stability test ran perfect for quite a while. I had two crashes in gaming and browsing with these kernerls (tried both version). In one instance it corrupted my internal memory.
[Asus Transformer TF700] maxal:
Interesting, how did you recover from the crashes and internal memory corruption.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Exactly why I put in the warning message during the flash. Although I couldn't reproduce a crash during testing I assume you just factory reset, reflashed the ROM and that cleared the corrupted data and all was well again?

Data2SD version for testing

Right guys, I *think* I have a version of the data2sd mod that should work with CROMI 2.5.x (like that name :) )

Can I have a few people try it and report back please. You must have already followed the procedures here to format your sd card to allow data2sd to work.

Data2sd Link

PLEASE DO A NANDROID BACKUP FIRST. I CANNOT SUPPORT THIS MOD YET SO YOU MUST BE COMFORABLE WITH THE ABOVE PROCEDURES. DO NOT FLASH IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS :fingers-crossed:

Ok?

The file below contains a compatible stock kernel.

correct, also made a backup before I tried it out. It is important that you use TWRP functionalities for systen clean and reinstall BEFORE you bring your backup data back, otherwise you carry over the corruption.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MisterEz:
Yeah, I get this every now and again, & have seen it discussed by others elsewhere on this site. It's a problem that I've had ever since running the stock Asus software on my Infinity before I unlocked & flashed the original CleanROM. Would be great if someone could find a permanent solution, but it is an Asus fault rather than being caused by this rom.

Never tried pulling the sd card to get around it - I'll give that a go next time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Currently testing the Google Apps and Library files from Jelly Bean 4.2. :D

So far so good.

Would everyone be OK if I incorporate them straight into the rom? - it's mainly the google apps plus there is an updated version of the browser as well.

If I have to do options - the rom download size will become huge!

:crying:
[Asus Transformer TF700] saugstauber:

Having the new 4.2 stuff in this ROM would give me the "kick" to unlock and flash your definately georgious CROMI, nevermind the size...what for do we have 64GB (slow) flash memory.:D

[Asus Transformer TF700] Godswrath:
Funny, I been editing build.prop all along for smaller DPI, but I actually go down to 120. You guys should mess around with it, because the "sweet spot" is going to be highly individual. If you're young with good eyes and are used to high resolution PCs I suspect you'll want to go lower.

Just in case anyone's interesting and doesn't know how to do this, open build.prop in a text editor (I open it through ES File Explorer and it's text editor), then just look for:

ro.sf.lcd_density=200

and change the 200 to your preferred value and save/exit/reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
I just wanted to say that this is a fantastic ROM/kernel combination. I love the additional tweaks and feel very satisfied.

Some of the requests people are making don't make a lot of sense, imho, because they are more personal preference, and mostly pretty easy to accomplish, with buildProp editor or another readily available app.

I suggest that if there is a fairly easy way to do your desired mods, don't ask for them to be included in the ROM, Rather the Devs could continue the much appreciated work of continuing to tweak for improved performance and maybe introduce 4.2 apps/improvements, etc.

Thanks a million for continuing to support this wonderful ROM!

Incompatible Apps

Is it just me or are there a lot of apps you can't download in the market due to incompatibility. I did the 200 dpi option and I agree it seems to be a sweet spot, but I can't even download Netflix among many other required apps for a tablet.

Is this due to the 200 DPI? I might mention that several of the apps were downloadable and I selected install and went on downloading more apps, then looked and some of those apps had errors and now they won't give me the install option, such as Ttorrent Pro. Peculiar. It's almost as the issue hit after a few minutes after I started with this ROM... Advice?

Request

Can I make a little request here, because I don't want to disturb you (using a PM) if you'd rather not have people doing requests ;)

Anyway: I saw this really clean and little mod on a Xoom Rom once (in the BuglessBeast roms), where the clock is placed in the bottom right corner.

So it'd go: notifications < battery & wifi < clock

Really just a visual mod I think, but one that looks oh so clean!
