Hi, thank you for cooking this ROM for the community, downloading....

I will keep up with the reports with bugs
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xFuGiToiDx:
Just flashed the latest update and for some reason I'm having issues with the menu button on the bottom right is not showing up on the apps... I also tried using pie and the persistent menu button is present but when I select it, nothing happens... :(

I'll try to flash the ROM update again tomorrow
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xFuGiToiDx:
Just reflashed the ROM again today... Still having issues with the menu option on the nav bar not showing on trickster and play store... But its working properly on my xda and link2sd apps..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Thanks for the bug report. I'll see if I can get it fixed.

EDIT: New build is up. Let me know if this fixes it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheMrcool212:
Hi there, i'm a TF101 user here. I maintained this ROM too for the tablet. We are having the same issue with the menu button which doesn't appear. I think it caused by new commits from the PA github repo. However this same goes with TF300T.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] brantje:
Does PDroid work with this rom?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Bastaerd:
Unless it's patched, no. But there is an alternative, XPrivacy ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dcrjay:
First , thank you for the updates.

Second, it force closes when I try to switch keyboard. Any tips?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheMrcool212:
Its fixed in a new commit in the github. Wait for him to release a new build.

Sent from my Galaxy S4 i9500
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] qingz:
Great rom except camera.

Possible to fix the camera? I was told the CM10.1 nightlies has a working camera.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xFuGiToiDx:
Just flashed the new build today and I can confirm that its fixed! Thank you... Also I noticed another bug on the previous build, that my tablet had a hard time connecting to Google services (the icons on the status bar werent turning blue), but so far it seems to be fixed in the new build as well...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pit84:
3.68 release workly perfect.

For me,today, is the best 4.2.2 rom for tf201
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pit84:
hi voyager,why don't implement crt animation in your pa rom?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hatem basha:
Using Data2SD

So I have been wondering about the Data2SD and finally want to install it, so I have been reading about it and here what I have understand so far please if anyone notice a mistake on my steps, do tell:

1- Download files needed (Rom,OC Kernel Data2SD,Gapps).

2- Partition the SD Card to 2 separate partition one as ext 4 the other as fat32 using gParted.

What should be the main partition and secondary? where should I put my rom or install it into???

3- on TWRP at the install menu should I install as Follows:

a- ROM

b- OC Kernel

is this process automatically done or do I need to specify other option too like partition of the rom???

c- Gapps

The red lines are my question please notify me if somethings are wrong.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
You're on the right track. Let me see if I can answer your questions:

1. You only need to download the ROM, Gapps, and Data2SD. Data2SD includes the OC kernel.

2. The first partition on your microSD card should be fat32, the second should be ext4. You can put the ROM and the other files on the first partition or on the internal storage.

3. To install:

a.Flash the ROM

b.Flash Gapps

c.Reboot

d.After the ROM boots, reboot into recovery and flash the Data2SD kernel

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hatem basha:
Thanks man I like it. very clear, nice and simple.

one question I have a 32 GB Sandisk what do you recommend the sizes for the partition. I want the most usable space that I can use on the SD card.

I'm backing up my data now and soon will start formatting my SD I'll keep updating you if its ok with you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hatem basha:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/g4je1wb7xexqk4t/2013-07-26%2022.32.56.jpgSo I'm now on the gparted screen

I have set my primary partition as fat32 with about 23 GB, the extended partition as ext4 the rest of SD card. Is this all right?

My question here is why the file system here does not write it as ext4 instead of extended?

UPDATE

I have followed your instruction to the letter but after installing the OC kernel I faced an "encryption error" told me to do a factory reset. I think the problem from the partition on SD now I have shut down the tablet. waiting for more assistance???
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
You shouldn't be using an extended partition. That's what's causing the encryption error. I'm at work right now, but I'll post some formatting instructions when I get home.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hatem basha:
Thanks man I have set both partition as Primary now things are working now perfectly. everything seems ok now so far need to test it more as I'm restoring all my previous apps then going to give it a spin.:good::good::good:

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hatem basha:
OK. So now the tablet is much more responsive very nice.

But I have read before that someone accidentally taken out the SD card and the whole thing crashed, had to make a flash again to fix it. Should I be worried? I have taped over the thing just in case.

Other thing is I have connected the prime with USB cable I only saw two partition on. Shouldn't I see three? I saw my 32fat SD card, and internal storage.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
You only need to worry if you forget that the microSD now holds your data partition. As for the partitions, you'll only see two, the two partitions on the microSD card. The actual internal storage won't show up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eSbek:
At goo.im there is a new file pa_tf201-3.69-20130727.zip, any info about it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] j5350:
The Changelog is in post 2. Getting ready to flash it now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xFuGiToiDx:
Just flashed the latest 7/27/13 build along with the new gapps as well and I ended up with a bootloop :(

I wipe cache and dalvik cache before updating as usual... Trying to flash it again.. If it does not work I'll redownload and flash again

Edit: its up and running now! Idk way happened on my first attempt but i ended up in a bootloop. My second try I did not wipe cache and dalvik after flashing both files and now it works
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xFuGiToiDx:
Another issue is that it takes long for the tablet to reboot.. And each time it boots up it says android is upgrading message.. Similar to when u wipe cache and dalvik cache and it will go through all the apps and say that its upgrading one by one. But the only message it shows is "starting apps" and then the tablet will be in the lockscreen in a couple of seconds after
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eSbek:
I can only tell you that I flashed this and previous versions without any issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Can confirm that...no issues at all for me

[MENTION=3828422]Voyager2k[/MENTION]

At goo.im there is Android v4,3 gapps file (pa_gapps-full-4.3-20130801a-signed), are you going to work on it (latest Android OS PA version) for us? Any news about it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
I do plan to work on it. I don't have an ETA at the moment, though. If/when I get it running, I'll post something.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pit84:
hi voyager,in your oc kernel the standard frequence of gpu is 600 mhz? because i search one kernel with standard gpu frequence set to 520mhz with possibility of overclock,because set the frequence to 520 after each reboot is no good and trickster mod is partly good.

thanks for all

pi84
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Sorry to be away for so long, but getting android 4.3 running hasn't been easy. If not for Namidairo, I'd still be struggling with it. I've posted a beta version of PA 3.96. Check the third post on page one for download links (or just click here).

The OC Kernel isn't mine. The work was done by _motley. All I did was repackage it with a different ramdisk and incorporate some minor additions. To answer your question though, yes, the standard GPU frequency is 600mHz.

I haven't had any problems like that on my end, nor has anyone else, apparently. The only thing I can suggest right now is reflash the ROM and wipe data/factory reset.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anoneemooz:
Thank you kindly for keeping up your work with this :) You guys that work on these ROMs definitely have breathed so much life into my Prime over the months.

Will be testing this out soon. Downloading as we speak!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eSbek:
Thanks for the v4.3. I'm running it now after dirty flash (I'm away from home, slow network and don't want to loose GB's of game data I have), no problems flashing this way.

So far I found no Back Button app kill, and no Performance Menu.

I read the v4.3 should have the TRIM implemented, is it true for this build? Can I remove the trimming software?

Regards
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pandawg:
Downloading now. Will report back later :)

4.3 is laggy, but is a start. Setup took a while to finish because it kept freezing for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anoneemooz:
3.96 has been extremely laggy for me even after a super clean install. From the start of setting up the tablet and now trying to install apps there is much lag.

But overall, everything seems to be working so far. Great start!

Edit: oops forgot where to find halo policy stuff. Found them! It's a per app setting. Forgot..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nsmal24:
The 7-27 build and later (4.3) are nearly unusable for me because they were so slow. Even tried a clean flash for 4.3 but no dice. Restored to a backup before 7-27. Runs beautifully again. Thanks for all of the hard work. We really appreciate it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pit84:
3.96 ------- coooooome onnn voyager!!!!!!!! very best development!!!!! i'm happy for my prime big thanks!!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eSbek:
about v4.3

After my dirt flash everything was laggy too, I left the tablet for about 1-2 hrs. Since I got back it has been running smoothly. I have total of 326 apps (user+system) and I found 4.3 running pretty fast compering to 4.2 (I need some more days for observation, using 4.2 it got laggy after weeks of usage then I had to clean the dalvik to restore the speed, by the way I used tasker to do it monthly at night).

For me so far 4.3 is usable and as I said very responsive, but I have to report that at WiFi section there is no settings.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Thanks for the reports everyone. I suspect that the discard option is causing the slowdowns. The next release will have it removed. Also, it looks like the menu button bug found a way to sneak back in. I'll have that fixed in the next build as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Namidairo:
Don't use discard on 4.3, otherwise you are nullifying the whole point of fstrim in the idle maintainance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eSbek:
guys,

what is the discard in the FW?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pit84:
only initial use have little lag,but now workly very good(for beta state),i use 3.96 with the game and i don't have big problem,i think 1or 2 release and this rom fly,great job voyager

p.s i have updated with no full wipe,only cache and davilk
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anoneemooz:
Honestly, the tablet never had issues for me when it comes to games. It's perfectly speedy but when it comes to installing or uninstalling apps or using it after it has been asleep for a while, it really feels laggy and full of hiccups and pauses.

The intense lag has died down but the Rom still lacks smoothness and it still pauses and lags a lot when certain processes are going on.

Aside from that though it is a very great start. And yes, the menu button issue is there again but it's not a huge deal. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
3.98 Beta now available

New beta is live. Hopefully this one will perform a little better. The menu button has been fixed (again) and I've added the Performance Control app from AOKP. Still some work left to do, but it's coming along.

Edit: OC kernel is now available for testing. See post 3 for links.

Edit2: Data2SD Kernel is now available for testing. See post 3 for links.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eSbek:
.... downloading :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anoneemooz:
Theme chooser has been removed?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Yeah, PA did that a while ago. Don't really know why.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anoneemooz:
Must be part of their settings reorganization process. Hopefully it will be back by the next build or two :)

Impressions so far on 3.98:

1. I dirty flashed it on top of 3.96 - initially, the lag improved just slightly. It wasn't as terrible as it was before but it's probably at the same level as usual TF201 performance.

2. BUT! Applying the Data2SD kernel (I have a 64gb Sandisk Ultra partitioned 20-ish and 34-ish for the ext4 second partition..just an arbitrary division) - As expected, I had to set up my device and everything again due to the new location of data but I have had MASSIVE improvements!

It's now crazy fast! This is what a supposedly-premium device such as the TF201 is supposed to perform like. I don't have before and after benchmarks, but the speed and usability is near perfect now. Slow downs due to app installs are almost gone. I have 200+ apps installed and have had no issues at all still.

I use Autostarts + Greenify to make sure I have no misbehaving apps messing around in the background without me needing them and this has led to a fast experience thus far. No performance degradation as of yet despite all the apps and prolonged use. I can browse using Chrome now without having the urge to break my tablet in half lol.

No random reboots or anything either. Back in 3.96, simultaneous or consecutive installation of apps from the Playstore sometimes caused a soft reboot. Now, I was able to queue up and install hundred+ apps without issue.

3. Halo doesn't derp anymore which is great. Haven't gotten to try the new features though but I'll be doing so now!

4. Haven't found any other issues thus far (nothing major anyway or noticeable through my typical use). No graphical issues either (Some phones on 4.3 are having some graphics issues here and there)

Copy-paste function is kinda broken (Google's fault I think due to 4.3)

Only real issue for me now is the removal of Theme Chooser but this should be back by the next build or so as PA team finishes reorganizing their settings menu.

THANK YOU Voyager2k for making me love my tablet again. I'm not ashamed anymore of using it in school. Back when it was still a terribly slow device, I was afraid of bringing it to school because people would watch me use it and it would be embarrassing whenever it was slow or laggy or crashy.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Hey Voyager2k, thx again for building this for us...im runnin your pa builds for month now - never seen anything better on the prime.

yesterday i installed you 3.98 Beta Build + 4.3 OC Kernel...runnin pretty well so far.

only two things i noticed:

- settings force closes after boot

- i can't restore any app or wifi ap's with TitaniumBackup (but i think this is caused by the changes in 4.3 and a problem of TitaniumBackup, not your fault..)

will report back, if i find anything else..

thx, so far!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] teh_lorax:
Try installing SuperSU. That should resolve your TB issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
that did the trick! thx teh_lorax

after installing SuperSU the app wanted to update the su-binary (update via app failed, had to do it via reboot to twrp).

after reboot it showed me a warning like this "System UID's are inconsistend. You have to wipe your data, otherwise your device will be laggy" ... no problems so far (without wiping data) :D

another small "bug" i found:

wifi-icon won't show any activity (the little up/download indicators won't show up)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fran_32:

Excellent Android 4.3 Rom!

Thanks for building this almost perfect 4.3 rom

but I find I can't turn on Google Now after flashing PA Gapps. Language is US. It just jumps to search.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
I think it was the intention, to keep it this way... to protect your privacy ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mm284781423:
It seems that the USB can’t work?

I connect it to computer by usb and there is nothing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZebTheCalvinist:
Just flashed 3.98 with the OC kernel. So far so good. Seems a bit quicker than the 3.68 version that I was using previously.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
Just installed to take a look.. Quite impressed..

Just need to get my head around halo's and pie launchers! All very odd.

OC Settings not saved

I'm Using the latest ROM image and OC_Kernel_43_08202013.zip, but my OC settings (1700MHZ, performance) are not saved after a reboot. Anyone else have this issue?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
Performance control, set on boot at the bottom. Worked fine for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
will check it out when im home and report back..

Grz
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Sry for my late response..

USB is working here no problems. Did you do a clean install?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mm284781423:
Thanks for testing.

:crying:

I find the reason. I connected it to another computer running windows 8, and it worked.

But my computer is running Windows 8.1. It seems Asus doesnt support the newest system...

Mtp is right. My nexus 4 works.

I dont know how should I do.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jeroen_76:
Yes, got the same settings, but still after a reboot everything is set to default. Maybe need to reflash the ROM...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
Coming from Haribean

This rom is

4.3

now. Why we (how is coming from Androwook or other) must downgrade from the 4.2.1 bootloader to 4.1.1 bootloader. :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZebTheCalvinist:
The bootloader partitions are different sizes. The 4.2 stock Asus ROM had larger data requirements than 4.1.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Namidairo:
Luckily I think the bootloader they distribute is from TF300T and should stop the model assert from passing, as a side-benefit.

So even if you do try to attempt to flash it, the recovery should refuse to do it.

The *real* problem is that Asus don't populate ro.bootloader or give us a way to tell which bootloader version is installed programatically... Or have functioning fastboot when your recovery and boot kernels don't boot... It's not ideal in any sense of the word.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] duclet:
So far so good and very smooth with the Data2SD Kernel. Just two issues I have found so far:

* Settings apps force close on boot (someone else has mentioned this)

* Halo app (the one that gives you the ability to pin apps to Halo) seems to be missing. I went to the Play Store and installed it but it seems like it is not pinning any apps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Yeah, the settings FC is on my list of things to fix, but work and school have left little time to work on this. As for the HALO app, I forgot to pull in the code for it. I'll add it to the next build, which will (hopefully) be out this weekend.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] duclet:
Thanks. No need to rush though. As mentioned, this is just so much smoother now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
I've been an idiot.... Waiting this long..

Just final replaced my aging 16gb SD card with a new class 10 64gb one and installed the Data2SD kernel..

AMAZING.. It flies! Feels like a new tablet..

My only question.. How many partitions? I've created an 8gb Fat and the rest as ext4. I've read somewhere that you can use 3..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Alright, PA 3.99 Beta is now live. I've managed to fix the settings FC on boot and re-add ntfs and exfat support. The theme engine has also been added back in along with the HALO app and the cLock app from Cyanogenmod.

Using three partitions on your SD Card wont do anything. The Data2SD kernel only makes use of two: one for extra storage space, and another for the /data partition. A third would just be a waste of space.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
Brilliant. Many thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
What file system do people use? I had chrome die a nasty death and it wouldn't boot after powering it off . Dropped the card in a Linux box and checked the card, now its fine.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
I'm not quite sure what you're asking here, but if you're referring to the file systems used on your microSD card for the Data2SD kernel, the first partition can be whatever you want, but the second must be ext4.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZebTheCalvinist:
I'm having a bit of a problem... Yesterday the tablet was freezing up, so I rebooted it. However, it hung on the splash screen for upwards of an hour. I was able to access recovery, so I tried wiping cache and dalvik, which got it to boot partially. It gets through the "Android upgrading" screen, and then hangs again at the "starting apps" screen. Is there anything I can do to get it to boot fully? I tried reflashing the rom, gapps and the kernel, and it still hangs at the starting apps screen. I haven't run into anything like this before.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Voyager2k:
Have you tried formatting the system partition from recovery, then reflashing the ROM? You could also try a data wipe, but I'd save that as a last resort.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZebTheCalvinist:
I wiped data yesterday, and that fixed it. Unfortunately, my Titanium Backup folder wasn't up to date, so I lost a lot of apps, but it's not the end of the world.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nikoltu:
Haven't finished reading all the coments and am sorry if that was explained already.

Do I need to Clean flash this rom or I can just flash onto older version (.98 -> .99) to not lose all my apps and internal settings?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SickBeast:
Hey OP and other developers, thank you very much for your contributions and hard work. I have installed the latest 4.3 based version of this ROM and it's absolutely fantastic. The launcher force closed on me once but I replaced it with Nova and it's fine now. The only other bug I have found is that the USB port does not seem to work on the dock. I wanted to play a media file off a USB drive and it would not recognize it for me.

Once those two bugs are fixed this ROM will be perfect and ready for prime time IMO. It's close to being ready for RC status IMO.
