Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

I swear that my TF700 runs better in "normal" mode than it does in "performance" mode... It seems like games "stutter" less often and that the TF700 generally runs better in normal mode for some reason... I do believe benchmarks are higher in performance mode though (haven't run a benchmark in some time though).

Is there a possibility that the TF700 runs too hot when running in performance mode and the system is actually "slowing it down" in order to lower the temperature?
[Asus Transformer TF700] joshnl:
Decided to bite the bullet and go from a rooted stock JB TF700 to an unlocked tablet with TWRP and CROMI 3.4.4 tonight. After spending MANY hours reading all the amazing info available on this and other threads on XDA, the process went without a single hitch (fingers crossed it will stay that way as install more apps and start using the tablet more).

A HUGE thank you to sdbags, _that, Thibor69 and all the other awesome people who either directly or indirectly helped me accomplish this successfully!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thibor69:
I am glad you had no issues. It is nice to know that our "walkthrough" has helped make the journey somewhat easier for you. Don't forget about Thats_Ok - he helped a lot with this walkthrough. It is really great to see users helping other users with this amazing ROM.

Mic isssues

The main reason why i bought this tablet was to skype but i have to speak up for them to hear me :( is there anyway to turn up the mic gain? Using an andriod emulater or something i could add to my build.prop? Also is there a way to get skype to use the side mic and not the back mic.Any help would be great, thanks.:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Check the play store to see if there are any apps for this please. There are no build prop edits for mic gain that I am aware of.

Best way is but headphones with a mic. Of maybe give you mic holes a clean?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
I have looked for an app but all seem to require a certin kernal and/or device is not supported.

The device is only a week old but ive tryed cleaning both mics.

I used the default recorder that came with the device and could her my self very well but when I skype im not loud enough:(

Is it normal for skype to use the back mic and not the side? Or is it using both?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Maybe it's a skype problem. I have used it but with headphones with a mic and had no issues. I never thought of using the inbuilt mic as assumed you would have to be quite close?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
Yeah I posted a thread on the android Skype forms a few minutes ago but I don't expect much help.

I used to Skype on my Samsung captivate using the built in mic all the time and I could walk all around my room and they could hear me just fine as I spoke out loud to them(I plug a 3.5mm jack to my speakers to play the sound) . I guess I will look for some headphones with a good quality mic on them, Thanks for the help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thibor69:
I use Skype quit a bit ... and I always use a headset. No problems at all that way.

Good luck !!
[Asus Transformer TF700] EvilHomerClone:
I'm understanding (obtw, i'm new at this) that taking this step will void warranty, and keep me from getting OTA updates. However i've been reading through this forum for a couple of days now and were i'm getting confused is should Asus release a firmware for their hardware and seeing that they host the downloads for us to manually download, can i still upgrade my hardware firmware while using clean rom?? Or will i have to wait for someone to update CleanRom's code to incorporate these firmware updates??

" I'm a simple man; I do not possess an engineering degree nor am I mechanically inclined..."
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Once on the the CROMi stock based ROM you'll be waiting for CROMi updates.

CROMi updates from SBDags and team are fast and furious by the way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] butcherbird:
Homer,

I would trust sbdags & his team to provide a quick update, a more bug-free update and -- most importantly -- effective patches to fix any bugs before trusting ASUS to offer the same service. Just my 2 cents.
[Asus Transformer TF700] butcherbird:
I noticed that lagfix is 50% off in the Play store. I never opened Lagfix after flashing. Is it truly recommended if I'm running _that's stock kernel at medium DPI?

Or, is it buggy & best to avoid?

Thank you! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
It doesn't hurt to run it from time to time. But scheduling it to run more than once every few weeks is overkill - it can only improve things after you deleted or updated a lot of data.

So I installed the wrong verion of cleanROM (2.7) so do i just do a clean wipe and then,flash 3.4.1 odex and wipe them twwo things after installation?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

I believe you should get away from just wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after the flash.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
Thanks it went well, also do i wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after for the 3.4.4 patch?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
3.4.4 auto wipes cache and dalvik. You have no choice ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] butcherbird:
Ah, so it IS a good practice to wipe both before AND after the flashing process, huh?

I thought I was just being anal by wiping after the flash.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

I've done that for a long time, and on the SGS2, for example, it is recommended to wipe each data store/partition three times. I do not believe it makes a significant difference, but I do find myself wiping both caches befor entering the CROMI installation, and subsequently selecting the option to install with wiping them both yet again. ;) No harm in doing it too often, whereas forgetting too wipe them (or having an incomplete wipe for whatever technical reason) might generate trouble.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
I have installed new ROMs without wiping anything, and everything worked fine. I think I never wiped /cache in my whole life. After installing a new ROM, I usually wipe the dalvik-cache, which is also not strictly required - it will be rebuilt either way. But as Marty said - it doesn't hurt to wipe too often (it's just pointless).
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
Found a fix [kind of]

So to fix this I call the person on google hangout with skype still open (without being in a call) then hang up and call them on skype.

Then magicly my mics work just fine for skype (I'd use google hangout but ironicly its hard to here her on her ipad mini)

Any idea why this is like that?
[Asus Transformer TF700] wurgy:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

I loaded up skype from the play store last night to double check since I'll be out of town next week and use it to talk with the kids. Wife said the volume was fine on her side. Maybe check and make sure the mic opening isn't plugged with lint or something? Uninstall and reinstall too? Tried tango, and hangout and they all worked fine too

When I do the ROM Flash, should I flash the 3.4.1, then 3.4.4 then the Kernel I may want to test out, say H's 1.8.3 OC without any reboot in between, or I should flash the 3.4.1, reboot, flash the 3.4.4 patch, reboot, then the new kernel and reboot?

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Yes

CROMi 3.4.1 then 3.4.4 patch.

I just changed kernels last nite from the patch install with no reboot after a back-up in TWRP.

Be sure your on the latest recovery versions with the JB bootloader (I'm sure you knew this already).

I'm on TWRP 2.4

kernel only .zip file?

Thanks to all the contributors for all the work and effort you guys have put into this project. My tablet is now running better than ever before. I'm using DEODEX CROMI 3.4.4 with that's v3 stock kernel and without disabling fsync. I haven't done the DATA2SD, but I did do the browser2ram option.

I'm wondering if we could get a .zip file we could flash that would only swap out the kernels? Is such a thing even possible? I'd like to try the different kernels and see if I can log the CPU temperatures with each of them. I'm wary of overclocking because of potential thermal damage issues. I'm thinking load an app like System Tuner from 3c and use it to log CPU temps while running one of the stress test/stability test apps from the play store.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Yes, such a thing even exists - look for "Kernel Installer" in the CROMI dev thread.
[Asus Transformer TF700] yew123:
Long time CROMI user, only just started posting. Anyway, I would post this in Hundsbuah's thread but I havent got 10 posts yet. I've currently got H's 1.8.4 kernel (1.3-1.85). How much is everyone undervolting?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Try 50mv to start with.
[Asus Transformer TF700] TheMarkster:
now that's what I call fast :D

They said you were quick with your updates, but to fulfill a request even *before* it's requested. Not sure how I overlooked that. :o The first thing I'm going to do is update to that's v4 kernel.
[Asus Transformer TF700] butcherbird:
Why does everyone tell us to wipe both cache & Dalvik cache then? There must be a good reason?!?

No worries ... I'm used to doing pointless things repeatedly. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Because things don't always get removed correctly. It never hurts to rebuild dalvik everyone and then to save a bit of space. As for cache .... Dunno.

Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

Is it only possible to watch hd movies from the play store on the stock rom? I thought I read that somewhere. I've searched around but haven't come across a definite answer.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
In the AROMA installer of CROMI you can choose to either enable Hulu(+) or leave the default (Google Play movies).
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

Actually, just to clarify, there is no way to watch HD content via Google Play Movies if your device is unlocked (due to DRM issues).

The option in Aroma will just allow to watch content in SD via Play Movies (even if you purchased the HD version).
[Asus Transformer TF700] devlop:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

Hmmm, that's disappointing. Kind of sucks to have this nice screen and not be able to watch hd. So, what's the purpose of the hulu hack?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

Yeah, really the only solution is to use some app other than the "Google Play Movies & TV" app for your TV/Movie viewing... I'd recommend Netflix, which does work in HD on unlocked TF700's (plus it supports HDMI-out).

Google is really shooting themselves in the foot with this one - talk about driving customers to use another service/app!! Makes no sense to me...
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Only Google Play movies is not in HD, but you can watch others in HD like Netflix, recored videos, download movies, Hulu plus etc.....so the nice screen is not a waste!
[Asus Transformer TF700] devlop:
Re: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

Ok. Thanks for the replies everyone. We were looking to cancel cable anyways and just use Netflix, so this should work out. I really only watch movies during flights anyways. I just like to have everything working.
[Asus Transformer TF700] PoiPoiKuroi:
Im getting quite low quadrant scores compared to everyone else, 5454 to be exact.

Unlocked and flashed 3.4.4 yesterday(first time ever), did wipe dalvik cache. Fsync is still enabled though, did not dare to remove it.

It was in performance mode and force GPU is enabled.

The tablet only seems slightly faster than stock, but not by much. (Did no quadrant test pre CleanRom)

I dont know how much difference it makes, but looking at the individual scores for the different components, its quite a bit less than the score posted on the OP under the same settings as mine. Just wondering if I have missed anything or done anything wrong. I followed SAUGSTAUBER youtube tutorial to help me and did everything he did.

:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] butcherbird:
I believe those results were obtained with a more bleeding-edge setup than if you, like me, are using the stock kernel, pretty much stock everything. In my case, the only non-stock selection I made was the medium DPI setting. My score is 5764, but I would in no way say that my tablet is only slightly faster than it was out-of-the-box with ASUS' JB updates installed. After flashing CleanROM, my device is actually useful. Before flashing, it was sluggish as heck; a real disappointment.

Anyway, you're not alone on the score.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Your quadrant score is pretty much inline. I agree with butcherbird, Cleanrom is much smoother than stock and minium lags. If you want a higher quadrant score, you need to use OC kernel(300-600 points plus), fsync disabled (800-1000 points plus) etc...and if you want smoother while multitasking, data2sd is the answer.

Hello, sorry to ask this since I'm pretty sure it has already been answered... But it seems I'm blind : I can't find it...

Issues with CleanRom

Currently on 3.4.4, and am having these 2 issues:

1. Browser frequently crashes upon first load

Hello there...

Which kernel is your CROMi installed on?
[Asus Transformer TF700] nsharma2:
Kernel version:

3.1.10Hunsbuah_v1.6-gc599d85-dirty

Installed this one so I could run at 1900MHz. Happy to install a different kernel if there's another that's more stable.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I have had this broswer bug before - try clearing the browser cache and data from apps and try _that's kernel from my kernel installer first to see if that fixes your issues.

H's kernel whilst fast may be too aggressive.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nsharma2:
Tried clearing the cache and data for the browser, but the back button still doesn't function properly. Will install one of _that's kernels to see if that fixes. Will report back soon.

Change of kernel did not fix the issue. Back button still doesn't function correctly.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
I'm sometimes plagued by this with the stock browser and Boat ad free.

What works for me is either reinstalling CROMi with a non overclocked kernel or disabling Adaway\Adblock in settings.

Whenever I re-flash CROMi I never choose Ad blocking...I forget sometimes and then this small problem returns.

I'm guessing it's a bug caused by Flash on websites that try to default to the newer markup language.

Not sure however.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nsharma2:
I switched back to the stock kernel and disabled Adaway\Adblock in the settings. The back button now seems to work as it should! Unfortunately, I don't know whether it's the kernel or Adaway\Adblock that was causing the issue.

That back button bug is pretty irritating.

Probably AdAway thinking about it. Keep AdAway disabled and from kernel installer select the crossbreeder patch. It includes a different method of app blocking

Steaming video via WiFi

Hey all...been using the latest CROMi 3.4. build for a while now and just love it...I have a question pertaining to streaming video on my TF700 vs. A Samsung galaxy S2 4G touch that I also own. It seems that I can stream videos with more success from my phone than I can from my TF700 on a consistent basis. The phone (S2) will stream almost always whereas the tablet is unable to 1) at the same time 2) in parallel or 3) when trying to stream first on one, then the other. For example I can stream from the phone fine. Then I turn the phone off and try to stream from the tablet and its a no-go 6 out of 10 times (can't connect).

Is this a WiFi radio problem? Anyone else having issues?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Have to try the app called Mediahouse? Also veriy that the signal is good and use static IP address in your tf700 if needed.

If you open settings and look at WIFI long press it opens a menu that allows the change to a static IP.

I am not sure what I have done wrong (or right). I have installed CROMI 3.4.4. with the stock from _That and have been very happy with this combination for weeks. Tempted to try H's 1.9.3 2 days ago but it was not as good as I hoped, so I reflashed back to the _That stock.

However, when I tested with Epic Citadel, it reported to be running with a 45.4 fps! I ran it 3 times, and it is over 45 fps every time. Worrying that It might do some harm to the gpu, I reflashed the _That stock again. Now it is 36.6.

I recently tried to flash the current Deodex build of CROMI after playing around with CM10.1 for a while. I did a full wipe and the flash appeared to go fine, with the tablet booting up and running smoothly, but when I dig around a little bit I find out that the system is only recognizing the first 1gb of internal storage. If I restore my CM10.1 nand backup everything is fine, but anytime I try to flash CROMI now the tablet only shows 1gb of internal space total. This last time I reflashed the CROMI zip, on first boot I'm now getting a message saying that "Data Encryption Failed," and the tablet goes back to recovery to do a factory reset, then boots fine, but still only 1gb.

I am running TWRP 2.4.4.0 and the current JB Bootloader. Any ideas on what is going on and how I might straighten this back out?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
The error "Data Encryption Failed," and asked for factory reset is referred to data2sd setup, Do you intended to use data2sd or using a wrong kernel?? If you provided rom name and how you flashed in details, we may able to help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] APDRJRD:
I'm trying to install the Clean Rom deodex version 3.4.5. I selected the US build, stock kernel, didn't do the fsync mod, and I don't remember seeing anything regarding data2sd in the installer and that's not a tweak I've tried to flash independently either.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I suspect the kernel is seeing another partition on your SDCARD and *thinks* you have data2sd installed. You'll need to makesure you only have one partiition on the sdcard or choose the OC kernel or Hunds kernel from the installer not the _thatv4 one.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
If you really have a microSD card with more than one partition (which is very unusual if you didn't do it on purpose) and you *don't* want to use it for Data2SD with my v3 or v4 kernel, simply eject it before booting. When the boot animation is shown, you can reinsert it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] FordPrefect:
AW: ★★ CleanROM Inheritance 3.x | DEODEX & ODEX | OC Kernel | OFFICIAL HELP THREAD ★★

I can confirm this. Recently I changed my sdcard for a bigger one. Although I didn't intend to use data2sd, I wanted to be prepared for the future and created a second ext4 partition. When I installed the ROM it didn't boot up. When I finally got it under control, I noticed that work had been done to that second partition.

Bottom line, the stock kernel which I have used "thought" that there was a data2sd intended.
