[Nexus 4 Android Development] Goog1e Phone:
I've been a kernel whore ever since I got my N4. I have tried Trinity, Faux, Matr1x, Franco, Harsh, and Motley (haven't tried Air Kernel or Semephore yet). My favorite kernels are Trinity and Matrix. I highly recommend either one. To be specific, Trinity 113b and Matr1x v8.0 are my favorite out of the batch. I've been on Matr1x v8.0 for the past 2 weeks (longest I have stayed with a kernel) and I am quite happy with it. But anything with Carbon is pretty damn good in my opinion.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Bionic Beast:
I honestly would have been fine with stock kernel but i wanted to be able to change the colors, so right now i have Franco and I have all my colors set up the way i want so I am content with that. I'll stick with it for now unless something forces me to switch :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] casonswag:
Oh if u wanted a more stock kernel and also be able to change the color use faux enhanced stock kernel this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2008222

Go to harsh kernel thread, there is a kernel download there which is just basically the stock kernel with gamma and governor control :D

What is "animated transparency"? (as mentioned in the Carbon nightly changelog)

when setting transparency on status or navbar you should see it change in real time as you move the slider.

Yes xposed was removed a few releases ago because it caused instability. You can still install the apk separately if you would like.

Technically release 1.6 is the most stable. However, the later builds after 4/14 are pretty stable but may have more bugs than the release stable.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] seniorstew:
What's the notification conversion?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Krunk83:
I'm a bit confused. Apparently the nightlies will not be supported here in this thread, meaning that if we have issues or bugs in the rom using nightlies the devs will ignore it. The bug tracker seems to be ignored as well since the same issues remain since 4/11 rom and aren't being addressed per nightly. What is the point of either? Are we wasting our time using the bug tracker? Where can we tell the devs of nightly issues? Can someone please clarify? Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] bkai:
I agree... it would be nice to get even a little feedback in the bug tracker. Even so much as changing the status of a bug that is currently being worked on.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Jsparta26:
I tried to tell you that they wouldn't Lol but anyway here's the nightly change log if anyone is curious about what carbon has been working on.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] bkai:
That's a shame. I know people shouldn't expect anything at all from devs, especially for free products, and this certainly won't keep me from using one of the best ROMs out there (imo) but it would still be nice to have a little more interaction than the changelog. Having a bug reporting tool that allows comments, status changes, and "tracking" pretty well suggests that they intended to use it specifically for closer up-to-the-minute logging and feedback.

Great rom but one to many issues with it. Using similar ROM and all the issues I had with this one have gone. Yes nightlies are bugged and mostly non stable but still. To the point of random reboots every day is a no go for me. Add that no response from the devs is a no for me. Not for me but hardly see any post from them here.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] nocoast:
My nexus 4 ran carbon for months without a single random reboot so without a logcat pmd to one of us then how could we so much as begin to address such issues?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Jsparta26:
Its what I have been telling some of these folks. Coming on here and *****ing about bugs does nothing for the devs. No detailed explanation on what they tried to do to resolve them and no log cat doesn't give them any clear view on how to narrow down the problem with over hundreds of thousands lines of code that is incorporated into these ROMs. Its really difficult for devs to have a starting on where to look. With a log cat and explanation devs can find the problem and have an idea how to fix it.

I love this ROM. I'm very sure they aren't ignoring us as you can see in their nightly change logs. Lets keep in mimd also that the devs have normal lives to maintain. With all the time that has passed since the last stable release im pretty certain thaf the next stable release will be packing a ton of fixes with new amd removed features. Anyway i got my point across.

One more thing. Some of the threads havnt been updated but there are updates to roms and kernels. Faux's kernel already has a release 14 out.

Liquid released 2.2 on 4/12 just to name a couple. Lets be positive guys. Start doing what the devs asl as far as bug reports and log cats are concerned and im sure all the bugs will be stamped out.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
Hey guys,

So i did something silly. I rooted my galaxy nexus, nothing went wrong and thought "hey, while im at it i should go root my transformer!"

So i booted it unlocked it using the app, booted it into recovery, and flashed cwm to it using fastboot.

Tried to open cwm to actually root it. Wouldnt work. Stupidly thought "hey im going to press delete data, that will fix it".

Now i have a tablet which is stuck on the asus loading screen and wont go past it nor can i seem to get it back into adb mode.

Please tell me i can rescue it somehow? Ive only had it for 3 weeks!

Any help would be appreciated, and i apologize if this has been posted elsewhere. Im just freaking out its going to burn itself out before i can fix it.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
Lots of people have run into this problem. You would've found out had you searched with some key terms. If you "wipe data" from the recovery screen, chances are slim that you'll be able to restore your unit. However, do not despair. Given the mysterious ways this thing works, try this LINK to see if it helps. Some have done what you did but were able to recover, others couldn't. Good luck and remember whatever happens, it ain't the end of the world.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
Dont tell me that :( I cant afford to buy another one. Best i could do is try and sell the dock and make a huge loss. Thanks for the link though - trying to get into apx mode now..
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
Not to mention the blasted thing keeps automatically rebooting itself.

OH HEY APX MODE!

Now what do i do??
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
Alright pretty sure its screwed beyong my repair. Think asus will fix it if i take it to them? for a fee ofcourse.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
They will fix it for a fee undoubtedly. Whether you can afford it is another question. It's weird they should provide the app. which if used would void the warranty. What kind of double-bind is that? You should inquire with them first and find out how much. Once ascertained, you should look around to see if you can get a motherboard for less. It would be different if your device doesn't work at all. I'm not telling you to do anything; I'm just wondering aloud how ironic this is where a completely dead tablet is worth more than a repairable one, 'cause if they can't see a thing on the screen, then they can't see a thing. And no-see tells nothing - no-thing voids nothing.:D:D:D
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
I like the way you think! It is kind of a joke that using their app voids warranty, but hey, i did press i accept.

I shall see how much it is. If i replace the motherboard is it liable to work straight away and is it a hard job?

Im sure they have a generator and all they do is enable apx mode and fix it like that. Wish it was a flat fee of under $100 because if so i would be on that in a flash..
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droid_1:
Hey cheese,

I dont know if it helps, but I also was stuck on the asus screen and adb didnt worked.

I wrote a small story how I managed to bring my tf back to life.

I was out of hope and was willing to try everything before sending it back to Asus so I tried this.

Dont know if it helps, but I know your situation and if nothing works Asus will repair it for a fee...

Good luck! :fingers-crossed:

p.s. one thing which you always have to concern about is making sure to have the correct bootloader (jb/ ics).
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NixZero:
its not an app that if used void the warranty, its an app that _CERTIFY_ that you chosed, knowing what it entail, to broke the software "warranty seal".

and the warranty cover only construction defects, it wont ever cover damages thaty you cause by yourself.

why they shoud spend money (as paying the tecnincian costs asus) to fix your errors?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graphdarnell:
Replacing the MB with a working one is not very hard, and will get it up and running right away. Just follow some of the hardware guides around.

---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 PM ----------

Heheh. This is not the place for this, otherwise i don't think you're gonna win in light of the existing body of consumer law and the reason therefor. Just think of this: what are Asus's interest and motive in releasing such app.? Why did they do it? You want to be law-abiding, that's your prerogative. I'd like to right what's wrong, legal or not, like "too big to fail" crap or corporate shamelessness. You live in a place with no public transportation. They sell you a Pinto-like car that's liable to blow up in your face when you use their special gas not sold anywhere else. But they are clever enough not to disclose that hazard when you buy it. Then they make you sign a disclaimer that you know the risk and assume it AFTER you already bought the car! The warranty should follow conceivable uses of the merchandise. It's the standardized cost of doing business. Especially when they provide the gas that you put in the car's tank. What did you alter or modify on your own that "breaks the warranty seal"? You see the point...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
Alright anyone know where i can find one of these? Or should i just try and snag a "broken" transformer and salvage the board? A quick look on ebay revealed nothing.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NixZero:
have you ever seen on the back of any item an adhesive seal that cover a screw that says "warranty void if broken"?

exactly the same.

you can broke it and do wathever you want, its your choice, but dont ask them to fix it for you if you screw up with your modifications, that's not covered by warranty.

btw if you unlock your tf300 and then discover an hardware defect you're still covered by warranty, asus dont want to screw you up, just dont want to pay for your mess.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spark1223:
If you can manage to get fastboot to work at at all, I can save you the trouble of doing any messy hardware replacements. Download the most recent update from asus' website. Unzip the package and pull out the blob file . Run this command where "blob" is the name of the blob file fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob You need fastboot installed on your computer of course. Now if you want to can flash TWRP or whatever, or just use your tab as is.

---------- Post added at 11:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 PM ----------

While the fact of the matter is warranties do only cover manufacturing defects, this isn't a thread for this type of discussion. This guys is asking for help not a f*cking debate where you like to play lawyer on developer forums.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cheese510:
I dont think i can get it to work since all i manage to see on the screen is the asus logo and it freezes. It has the wrong recovery on it now so i think fastboot is out the window. Im assuming the wipe data button wipes recovery too?

The only mode ive managed to get it in is apx mode and thats useless to me.

Thanks for your help though.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spark1223:
Fastboot and recovery are too totally different things. Even if recovery is totally botched you can still use fastboot. Its on the same screen where you wipe data. If you can still get to that, you're still fine. http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/q794/shiznoroe88/TF700T ROOTING/fastboot_1_zps39542550.jpg

Looks like that. With the unit completely off Hold down the volume down button and then press power button. Select the USB icon, and connect to PC, that's called Fastboot.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flukeSG2:
So I'm in a similar situation to this gentleman. My tab, boots to the Asus Logo where in the corner it tells me The Device is UnLocked. I know how to access fastboot and recovery, I tried what you instructed, however it still only boots to the same screen.

My problem was I stupidly didn't follow the proper instructions to flashing the new Cyanogenmod 10.1 where it says I had to have the new JB bootloader, which I am guessing I do not have. So before I flashed it I made a nandroid of my old system, tried to restore and it won't boot back into the old system. So I wiped data, cache, davlik. Nothing, it won't boot past the Asus screen.

So right now, I've just downloaded a stock rooted rom of the latest asus rom. I am going to try to flash that from fastboot if I can. Any other suggestions I'm open to.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] udreamibuild:
I had a problem getting my PC to recognize and fastboot my tab too. What worked for me is to plug tab into PC while off. Start adb then turn on tab, as soon as I turned on tab then I repeatedly try to see if adb recognized tab while it was powering up. After a few tries it worked. It was like it had to check at just the right moment to catch the tab. Hope this helps, good luck ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] CrazyRussianXDA:
I'm contemplating getting DNA and doing my preliminary research. I cant imagine running without root but never had to deal with S-On.

I already know that even with S-On the phone can be rooted, that's good.

Now, with S-On, can I remove Verizon and other bloatware? The reason I ask is as far as I understand the S-On prevent writing to the system partition and the bloatware I'm inquiring to remove is located on system partition, isn't? So, the S-On should prevent removing that bloatware.

If I'm mistaken, I would appreciate clarification.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
A writeable kernel allows you to make changes to the system while booted. You can also make changes by flashing a zip someone made or do it the old fashioned way via adb.

There are scripts here that remove bloatware, you can flash a debloated rom, or you can flash a writeable kernel and delete the bloat manualy..
[HTC Droid DNA] CrazyRussianXDA:
What if:

1. One way or another I achieve permanent S-Off

2. Root the phone

??? Will I be able to uninstall bloatware right from stock ROM?
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Yes, but as I said s-off is not necessary to remove bloatware.

Many thanks for the ROM! :)

Very nice. Dirty flash over Rootbox with no problems apart from android.process.acore giving me FC's - easily fixed by clearing data on both Contacts and Contact Storage in Apps.

Has the kernel been optimised in anyway only I note that it defaults to 1600Mhz so figured it had - see no point in flashing another kernel if this one isn't just the plain old CM one.

Just waiting on your Grouper release now.....
