[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Did you use the same Cromi X version and same kernel as before? I noticed that you use GUI 4.2. I heard that GUI 4.1 is faster than GUI 4.2. I also use invisible shield and have no problem with the default touch pressure on Cromi X 4.7. You can go to the build.prop to change the pressure to the desired level that you want to. You should look into the memory management to make 4.7 more responsive under a heavy load. It just my two cents.. :) Good luck.

After loading the beta2 version now one night has gone ...

My battery went from 100/100 (tablet/dock) to (76/99) in about 15 hours. Guess we didn't need a proof the dock drain is still present, this is just for the records.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sometimes a clean install helps but sometmes a flash doesn't seem to take as well as it should. I have no idea why but try a reflash - it might solve your issues. If that doesnt work we could look at a logcat to see if you are getting any errors causing the lag.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Now the OTA Update is out for 10.6.1.14.10 I checked a post with a screenshot of settings : about

I think this is a minor update and the driver versions are not as new as the 10.6.1.27.1 update they did for the TF300T. That has wifi on version.7.2.1.50 and Bluetooth on version 11.38.

I won't be using this update as CROMi-X is already beyond it :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
I didn't see the option. 4.1 is pretty snappy for me.

4.2 GUI has not been my friend on this tablet. It doesn't seem like Asus optimized it much.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cullenmq1:
Could it possibly include a new dock firmware that could fix the drain issue? I would be surprised if asus fixed the issue but you can never really know with asus :p.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I agree the implementation of 4.2 is not the best on the transformer. Asus went so far to hide it on the infinty so they don't want you to use it. It is laggy and slow compared to the 4.1 gui. I only enabled it as Asus were lazy and hid the setting from us if they detect a TF700. [MENTION=2675647]elesbb[/MENTION] cleverly worked out how to renable it. Other transformer models like the TF300 get it by default.

Try 4.1 as well please [MENTION=2382301]Thibor69[/MENTION] ;) Also a simple dalvik cache and cache wipe can really help sometimes. Android often leaves remnants of uninstalled or deleted apps in its cache.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I will compare it when I get my hands on it. If there are any firmare updates to the dock, screen or camera, dont worry I will include them.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Thanks sdbags for an awesome job! Still on beta 5 b1 and changed a few transition effect using an app called Framework Tool that someone posted here. i ended up buying the paid version to unlock all transition.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44523976

With Apex launcher I set animation to swipe to left rather than the default jelly bean one.

Video of my result. Barely any lag in transition anymore. However it still obviously has some I/O issue with certain apps like flipboard which I'm not surprised since it take up a lot of resource. Also I was not able to change some of the zoom transition like when opening an app in the recent list so it still kinda stutters there. But overall everything is butter.

[youtube]Bg0L9oARLrY[/youtube]

Games still do suffer some stutter still but if you really want to have almost butter smooth gaming experience you will have to lower the resolution to 720p with 160 dpi. Someone made a script below if you want to try. He also made a reset script if you want to go back. make sure you reboot after running either script with scriptmanger. This makes a whole lot of difference in gaming. I've tried it on MC4 and nova 3. Not sure if it will work with other kernels but im using hunds one from the rom installer.

Someone already posted a (WW) dlpkgfile. See http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44771053&postcount=7

The bootloader has a few more changed bytes this time, but as far as I see this is only because the build number is one character longer and all following strings therefore moved by one byte. I believe it is still exactly the same code as in 10.6.1.14.4 and .8.

Other than that, it's the usual minor update - new kernel and recovery in the blob (as usual, without source yet :mad:), new camera firmware, some fallback font, and a couple of patches to framework core and services, contacts and settings apps and XT9 input.

How many of you guys would like to make the "lock navigation bar" button into a kill application button? I currently use my own app which adds an invisible button above the navigation bar, but was wondering if you guys would like this. Of course the option would be togglable via CROMI Control.

I wanted to +1 that beta 2 is the fastest my tablet has ever been. Seems like transitions and app drawer animations lag has been much improved, which was a big issue for me. Very happy with this release.

Battery performance on CROMi-X 5.0 beta1 is pretty amazing! And my tablet is usable again right when I wake it since I don't have to turn WiFi off during sleep anymore!

Can't we get mods to select which side we want the buttons? I'd prefer them on the right side, bottom...
[Asus Transformer TF700] elesbb:
Nope, cause that has no affect on performance :P its just a layout preference. :P Same code same ROM :) i think its just placebo xD

I'm gonna try. Got a lot to do right now though so this is on bottom of list.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
It could be that the bottom bar is hardware accelerated (using hardware window "B" of the Tegra display controller), but the top bar isn't. So the performance difference may be real.

To verify that, please post the contents of the file /d/tegradc.0/regs (make sure the screen is on while you do that, or the device will lock up and you have to power off and reboot).
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I also find it odd that Asus doesn't want the Infinity to use the 4.2 layout. It definitely feels slower on our devices and I wonder if they made an executive decision to stop complaints?
[Asus Transformer TF700] BHermes21:
I have been having the weirdest problem lately. I have been using Cromi-x since it was released. I never had any issues flashing the rom and a kernel of choice. Well since a couple weeks ago, I cannot get any other kernel to boot. I always get a bootloop. I have just tried the new beta2. I only can install the TF700: ASUS modded stock kernel. If I select Hunds modded kernel I get a bootloop. That goes with 4.7.0 which I was just coming off of. Ive tried many times (4.7.0) setting it up with the modded stock kernel and flashing Hunds after but no luck. Tried any kernel I could find to test. Always a bootloop. And like I said, I never had issues before. I know how to flash kernels and what not. I am really stumped. Anyone have any suggestions?? Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Did you try my kernel installer or were you trying to flash the kernels individually? I clean up files properly in my installer so it is ideal for switching.

Did you clean install the rom?
[Asus Transformer TF700] aleitch:
Only thing I noticed was that you installed the Nova launcher from Aroma but you use Nova Prime so you may have two versions of the launcher competing with each other. My understanding is you should not install an app as a system app (flashed with the ROM) if you are going to install the app anyway from the Play store or your backups.

Back up your internal SD to a flash drive, format data in TWRP - THIS WILL WIPE YOUR INTERNAL SD -, and do a clean install. I had the same issue (unfixable bootloops) and this fixed it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] bruinhoo:
Nova and Nova Prime are not separate launcher apps - the Prime app simply unlocks the premium features of Nova.From personal experience, I have installed Nova Launcher via Aroma and later installed the Prime component from the Play Store/Titanium without issue on multiple occasions.

Thank you guys. I will wipe and reflash ( I like to ) and I will switch to 4.1, and report my findings :)

[Asus Transformer TF700] Mike3.14159:
Installed the 5.0 beta 2 about an hour after release and I have to say that it is a WHOLE LOT smoother than 4.7, can't wait for the 5.0 release!! 4.6 was pretty snappy but for some reason 4.7 was super laggy and unresponsive for me!

Only problem I have had is when using lagfix.....can't remember if it was an option in the beta - which I dirty flashed but wiped davlick/cache over 4.7 - but know I had it installed before. When lag fix runs fstrim on the cache and system everything is fine and it finishes really quickly. But when I ran it on 'data' I let it sit for five minutes and the screen would not come back on and had to force it off and back on with the power button. The third time I ran I let it be for probably ten minutes, the screen showed that it had not completed and the launcher and system stopped responding and forced closed.

Don't know if it's just my tablet but thought I'd mention it! Otherwise the beta has been great and I really didn't need to run lagfix in the first place!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ppzoid:
I had to let it run for at least 15 minutes on data during which the TF was quite unresponsive, but it finished and everything was ok. I'm on 4.7 deodex by the way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
I think your perception of 4.2 is placebo ;)

I dunno. I let it settle and it still sucked. :(

Other ROM devs have said it's more than layout, otherwise would be much easier to add to their own ROM.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Macros746:
New to the ROM and the Infinity in General. I did notice the sluggishness when I was rocking stock. I'm just curious to know peoples impressions of using the microSD fix versus just running the rom off the internal SD? Is it a dramatic difference worth the trouble? Or is it a small improvement that only speed freaks will notice?

Thanks!

Been using the beta2 for 3 days mow, performance seems better than 4.7.0, seems a lot snappier, as for dock draining it doesnt seem as bad before, seems to have improved somewhat.

Every app had lag problems. Every time I tried to access an app, go to android settings, use the keyboard, everything produced lag. Practicallythe whole tablet had always been slow and sometimes not responding. Clearing the cache or using a task killer cleared the problem but not for too long.

I was reading about the lag and response issues other users were having through other forums and read about flashing another kernel which in my case really made a difference when I flashed Hunds. Now it's working like it should.

What are these "dock draining" issues people are talking about? I'm on 4.7.0 currently and I've been unplugged for 3 days and I'm at 99% (tab) and 86% (dock). Is it an accelerated draining or something?

Some people may not know that the dock is designed to keep the tablet charged and will drain all the way to 0% to keep the tablet charged up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Deathman20:
Originally how the dock software was set is that at 70% tablet the dock software will kick in and charge it up to 90%. If the tablet dropped to 70% again it would charge back up to 90%. Then if it hit 70% again on the tablet the dock did something different though not sure exactly what per say but I thought it ran per say off the dock totally and charge the battery again to 90%.

So that is odd that your tab is at 99% and dock is at 86%. I've never seen that myself on my tablet.

Now the drain issue is where for some reason it doesn't put the tablet to sleep and runs down the battery in a short period of time. At times I could run the battery out in a day or 2 with minimal usage. It was odd and could never put my finger on what was doing it because other times it was perfectly fine.

Hey! Im no developer just a heavy user =) But I have this app called Halo on my Paranoid Android rom on my s4.

Is it even remotely possible to get Halo in your rom aswell? I remember you said samsung Multiview required a total rework of framework so it was out of the question.

It would be awesome if we could get some kind of real multitasking (like on a pc) since our screen is really high res. =)
[Asus Transformer TF700] -BoneZ-:
That is odd. So odd, in fact, that I went and looked at the numbers again, and found that I had them reversed. :laugh: Tablet is at 86% and dock is 99%. Apologies. :p

OK folks some app updates and a change to the rendering engine for this one. There is also an experimental version of cache2sd included. It only currently works via a terminal emulator and won't survive a reboot. You need a fast sdcard (class 10 UHS-1) but think of it as a kind of way to use your sdcard to speed up cache reads and writes. Kind of like data2sd without all the hassle. It got me 700 points in quadrant :) But that is probably as it is caching quadrant :D

Hi all.

Have been testing this fantastic rom and Chromi 5 beta 2.

Ran in to some probs. can't boot any rom that isn't with stock kernel anymore. i get stuck on the spinning wheel during boot or during the final stage of android configuration of the apps just before first boot. I remember i tried som of hounds kernels and played with the cpu settings. can some old config file be messing the new installs?

How can i make a total wipe so nothing old remains? Don't have any importend stuff on the tab so i don't mind a total wipe.

I have latest twrp, adb up and running.

I believe Halo was open sourced and there is a port of it on the App store called "Portal" which is supposed to work on any device. I personally have not used it as Halo and Portal look to be centered around notifications and I'm happy enough with standard nav-bar functionality.

What we truly need is multiwindow support similar to what is available on Galaxy devices via the touchwiz framework.........but that is not something that will happen any time soon.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
You can use a "Format" instead of Wipe in the TWRP. It will clean everything including your personal data. Usually, Format method is solving a lot of unexpected problems.. Good luck. :)
