It is a limitation in the Spotify app itself. I doubt there will be any modded version of the app with notification bar controls.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KinetiClutch:
I understand, thought maybe it could be caused by the No SD mod?

Is there any sort of universal media app that can be implemented in the notification bar or is this the same just app specific.
[Asus Transformer TF700] eckka:
I'm currently using Poweramp which has widgets and uses the Notification bar to access a mini app on the popup. Very handy and also highly configurable.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Gefjon:
Probably a stupid question, but I just need a clarification :confused: I am currently running a data2sd kernel with an ext4 partitioned SD-card. Does CROMi-X without data2sd use the ext4-partition? If not, should I reformat and repartition the SD-card?
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
Small problem on my part and I don't know where the problem lies. I use nova and i am up to date on cromi. A version or two back ?? not sure when, if I check to save a bookmark to homepage nothing is saved, using stock browser. I can use nova shortcut settings, several steps, to set one, but not in browser bookmark settings.

any idea if its jb or browser or cromi or nova or something i've done.

Thanks woody,

I have a Transformer Prime running Hairy Bean v2.2 with the Hairy Bean 4.2.1 Bootloader and Recovery. What steps do I need to take to install this ROM?
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
Guys, do I just flash the MaxKernel in Recovery? How do I return to stock kernel if needed?
[Asus Transformer TF700] KinetiClutch:
yeah via the install selection in TWRP.

You can just reflash CROMI again and select the stock kernel and that will restore the stock kernel
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Or download sbdags kernel installer. He made it specifically to ease switching kernels.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Just flash it on top. It uses the same base .
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
do a full back with your recovery, before flashing that kernel. its been known to have issues.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ushlambad:
Can I go directly from ICS 9.4.5.30 to CROMi-Xenogenesis? I was thinking that I could just flash the JB 10.6.1.14.8 bootloader using TWRP 2.5.0.0. and then the CROMi-Xeno DEODEX rom. I'm on an Asus Infinity (TF700T, US SKU, rooted and unlocked). Should I upgrade to stock JB first and do a nandroid backup? This will cause me to lose root, no?

Also, anyone know the status of tun.ko in this build?

Thanks much...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes you can go straight to this as you described.

I'm pretty sure tun.ko doesn't work properly although _that included it in his kernel I think.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
CONFIG_TUN is even enabled in the stock kernel - no need for a module.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ushlambad:
Does CONFIG_TUN allow for a TAP/bridge mode VPN connection though?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Kconfig says:

config TUN
tristate "Universal TUN/TAP device driver support"
select CRC32
---help---
TUN/TAP provides packet reception and transmission for user space
programs. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet
device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media,
receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets
via physical media writes them to the user space program.

When a program opens /dev/net/tun, driver creates and registers
corresponding net device tunX or tapX. After a program closed above
devices, driver will automatically delete tunXX or tapXX device and
all routes corresponding to it.

Please read <file:Documentation/networking/tuntap.txt> for more
information.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called tun.

So CONFIG_TUN is the same functionality in the kernel as the tun.ko module. I don't know if you need anything else from the kernel for a VPN connection.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
Cromi-x without a data2sd kernel will not use the ext4 partition. Your tablet will only detected the fat32 partition as external storage. So it would be suggested to reformat the microSD card if you want to use all the space on it, though if you are to lazy to do so (like me) it wont cause any harm. :p
[Asus Transformer TF700] flyhighx:
I had the same problem. It was an issue with Nova. They just released an update which fixes that issue and some other bugs as well. I'm on Nova Prime 2.1.1 beta3 and that bug is fixed. Hope I've helped.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wl123:
Anyone have an opinion on whether to install DEODEX or ODEX? Either running better?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] :
ODEX:thumbup:
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
no biggie

I've notied a few very minor bugs/problems that I was wondering if a few people could confirm them and or suggest a fix.

1.) The in-voice volume does not lower all the way using the volume hardware buttons. It stops on the last step before fully being at 0%.

2.)The auto brightness seems to go to 0% when enabling it and often goes to 0% in mid bright environments but not all the time.

3.)Some times when I plug in the charger the tablet does not detected it. Unpluging it and pluging it back in a few times seems to fix it. Once the tablet detects it i move and jiggle the cord around and it remains to charge :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
Deodex is snappy for me. Haven't tried Odex.

In theory there shouldn't be a difference except for first boot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thibor69:
) I do not have this issue. It goes all the way to 0% Silence for me.

) I have always had problems with auto brightness all the way back to the first CleanRom release and even on stock. I continue to have issues so I don't use it.

) This is odd. Right away I would say the plug and/or the socket. You dont mention if you have the dock. With the dock you can charge via the dock OR via the tablet, so that would answer the question if it is hardware or software related.

Sorry I couldn't directly answer your questions ....

[Asus Transformer TF700] inSaN1Ty_X:
No, its not the SD card mod. Im listening Spotify right now on my phone and it has no notfication bar commands.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KinetiClutch:
Yeah I established that! Cheers though.

Anyways. Has the latest kernel source been released yet or do ASUS usually leave a gap between firmware release and kernel sources
[Asus Transformer TF700] miloshdrown:
I know this is a little OT but I think I found a sound mod that actually works to boost the audio on the tf700 with CROMI-X. I installed Viper4Android, installed the driver for A10/15 processors then selected safe mode in the app and now the audio boost modes seem to work.

This was done on 4.6.1 but should work on 4.6.4.

Please read OP below for further instructions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39156703

Warning: When I maxed some of the settings I got some crackling in the speaker so be careful how high you boost it. You could possibly blow the speaker if you crank it too high.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jjgrantham:
Reading the latest posts it seems to have a lot of issues recently. DSPmanager coupled with SpeakerBoost seems to work ok also for now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
Did you disable wifi when screen is off to save battery? I did and it takes a long time to get woken up as well.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Burt Reynolds:
Kernel installer?

Howdy all, evidently I'm being a bit slow witted, but I can't figure out how to use the Kernel installer. Flash the zip, I assume, but I haven't seen any definitive posts about it. And yes, I've used the search option. But unless I've missed something (likely)...

Any help appreciated.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Flash the zip :)

It's that easy. Flash it in recovery and like the ROM you will be walked thru some options. Choose what you want and then reboot when it finishes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Burt Reynolds:
Thanks. You're the best!

sbdags is the man.
[Asus Transformer TF700] garbageguy:
- use a file manager that has root features in its settings enabled (file manager hd, root explorer, etc)

- make sure it also can mount the /system partition to r/w (read/write) so as to enable editing

- using the file manager, navigate to: /system/etc/config/brightness/

- open brightness_config_04.xml with a text editor

- in the section '<array name="autobrightness SuperIpsOff">', change the first value from '5' to '20'

- save & exit the file

- reboot

this should have been part of cromi-x as 'brightness fix' :p 5 is way too low, considering the next step up from it is 33
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Well that is OK but in bed in the dark at night it will be too bright :p so I can't win ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] tiernan22:
Screen filter at 40% is perfect for bedtime. :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Just remember, with "screen filter", you are still using just as much battery as if the brightness was not turned down... In other words, it doesn't really lower the brightness at all, it just "masks" the colors to make it look less bright. Lowering the actual brightness (via the .xml file) will lower the actual brightness and save battery at the same time.

Just an something to think about in case you weren't aware how "Screen filter" works. Not sure how much of a difference in makes on battery life though, to be honest...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Oops just realised my modified auto brightness didn't make it into the latest version :eek: :cyclops: Will be in the next version ....

[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
You are right - you can't please everyone! It's a personal preference depending on how people use their device. For example, I *never* use my TF700 in bed, so I find that the minimum brightness is too low be default. But if you do use the TF700 in bed, it would be too bright with my settings!

So, like you said, you can't win here - the user just needs to adjust this one themselves! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] hasrussian:
can i use this as a base

i am working on building a rom based around media. i have used this rom before and i would like to use this rom to work off because i liked it a lot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] usern ameisval idandnot:
Last week my one year old graphics card died. I got a replacement and it died 6 hours after I installed it. I wanted to use my TF 700 to get another replacement but it froze after I opened the browser. I restarted it and now Im in a bootloop. When I go to fastboot it says key driver not found. So I followed a fix, starting the linux cold boot, but it didnt help.

Whats my next step? Any chance to reload the mysterious key drivers? Are they inside to cromix zip? It would also be nice if someone could tell my why my graphic cards suddenly die like flies. At least I have my crappy old laptop. :)

Edit: My heart frequency sensor died yesterday and I need to get a replacement monitor too, because my one year old malfunctions. Why the hell...what is going on here?

Edit2: Can I install cromix over my current installation? I want to keep my data and settings, I have enough things to fix right now, God dammnit.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
Pertaining to your grafics card is there some sort of fuse between the power source and the graphics card? Beyond plug and play, I know nothing about desktop wiring but as a novice electrician with a little knowledge of circuitry, you always want to start with the power supply and then work forward using a multimeter.
[Asus Transformer TF700] usern ameisval idandnot:
possible reasons: 1. PSU 2. Dual Monitor usage in 1080p via 10m hdmi cable and 3m dvi somehow kills the cards. 3. mobo defect 4. somehow a single part of the card overheats, because the whole system and the gpu are very cool.

Any ideas about my tablet :crying:

I will get a replacement for my heart sensor. So much to fix..., maybe I just get rid of all these devices, who needs computers anyway.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes as long as you give credit and allow others to share your changes ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
If you have a bootloop problem just reflash the rom and if the bootloop still occurs do a wipe and then flash the rom. Then do a nandroid backup so this doesn't happen again.:silly:
[Asus Transformer TF700] usern ameisval idandnot:
Where can I download the nandroid backup :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Frostbiter:
You make one in recovery, it's not something you can download.

It's always good practice to making a back up before flashing anything in case anything goes wrong.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
It's part of the recovery, boot into recovery and look for backup option.

---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

+1 good advise
[Asus Transformer TF700] wl123:
How many nandroid backups does everyone normally keep? Because TWRP keeps the backups in a saved location, does everyone go in and delete all the backups except the most recent?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Frostbiter:
I normally keep only one, I make it right before I flash something and delete the old one. This is mainly because I only have an 8gb sd card and that is where I save my backups.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ronniereiff:
I always keep the first 2 most recent for cromi-x and I have a back up for cromi in case I want to go back to 4.1.1. It's all preference:o.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
It would be nice to enforce some type of control on this thread. I mean, seriously. PC GFX card issues?

I just re installed cromix and it is stuck at the boot screen. It isnt even looping anymore. Is my TF 700 broken?

Edit: And again...after several attempts it says again, key driver not found.
[Asus Transformer TF700] TechXero:
That Key Driver not found message is nothing to worry about... Just ignore it. An ASUS bug of sorts. No negative effects...

[Asus Transformer TF700] TechXero:
Did you select advanced wipe and check all except external SD? And as a rule of thumb never restore system apps.

Thats exaxtly what I did. I got the missing apps installed now... How can you even restore system apps?
[Asus Transformer TF700] TechXero:
It is not recommended. But I dunno what went wrong with your setup. What I would recommend is for you to do a Super Wipe. Advanced - all except for the sd. Then Data. Confirm and flash ROM from there. That way it would be a clean slate.

Mount file

I downloaded FX file manager with the root extension. I can get to the file but don't know how to mount the file with write access...I keep getting an error when I open in text editor and try to save that the file is read only.
[Asus Transformer TF700] garbageguy:
try another one. maybe one of the ones suggested?
[Asus Transformer TF700] acraigl:
Had my first-ever crash/reboot this morning on Chromi-x. Was browsing the web, screen went pumpkin-orange for about 12 seconds then reset. I'm on the latest ODEX and bootloader.

Might be nothing more than a one-off, but thought I should mention it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
Thanks for that note. Question, does that apply for switching from Hund's 3.0.6 to _That's, or is the advice still to do a factory wipe because of their structural differences? Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I'd recommend ES FIle Explorer - it's the best file explorer I've ever used on Android (in my opinion)....
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ready2Mosh:
I also use ES, but I found root explorer to be better myself.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It takes care of the files for you so no wipe will be necessary ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Is there a free version of root explorer or are you talking about the $3.99 version? If so, cost is definitely a benefit of ES File Explorer (it's 100% free!).
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tylorw1:
There is a free version and ES File Explorer has a bug in it. When you try to make /system and such r/o, it dont work. The only one known to work is Root Explorer, or mounting it r/o via terminal.

Tylor
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Can you please post a link to the free Root Explorer - I can't seem to find it (unless it's the one just called "Explorer").

Also, I actually had the same problem with ES File Explorer, but it was actually a SuperSU problem - once I removed it from SuperSU, closed ES FIle Explorer and re-opened it (granting root permission), the remount as RO and RW started working again. Not sure what caused the issue in SuperSU though... Strange.

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tylorw1:
There is Root Browser and Root Browser(File Manager). The first is free, second is paid. Here is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree

Tylor
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Ahh, its root browser - not root explorer - that explains why I couldn't find it! Originally you said root explorer, which is why I was confused. Thanks for clarifying. :)

LOL I get confused myself, so apologies. I havent been round here very much of late and have lost touch a bit hehe. My fault entirely :).

Is there any real benefit extending the Read Ahead Buffer for the I/O out past the 4096 limit which Trickster presents?

If so how do I go about extending this? Think Tylor mentioned it a while back.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Happs:
Hi Everone, thanks for the excellent thread and I'm sorry for the noob questions (this is my first root and ROM) but can I please seek some clarification on the process.

I have rooted my TF700T and applied Browser2RAM to resolve the slow browsing issue (but I have not done the ASUS unlock process), but given I have gone this far, I'd like to unlock the full potential of the TF700T with a new (this) ROM. I have installed GooManager to install the latest TWRP.

So my questions are:

1) Given I'm rooted but not unlocked, but have GooMaager and TWRP installed too, can I flash this ROM immediately, or, do I still need to go through the ASUS unlock process?

and

2) The XDA thread about how to flash it talk about doing the power & volume button restart to select the ROM, must I apply it this way or can I do it via GooManager and the relevant WW Bootmanager and TWRP download?

Thanks very much.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
To be able to flash a custom rom you need to have a custom recovery (TWRP). To be able to install a custom recovery you have to unlock the bootloader. No way around it....

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 PM ----------
[Asus Transformer TF700] wl123:
Goomanager has the option to Restart Recovery. I always just use that to restart to TWRP. I never have to hold the power and volume down to get there.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
He doesn't have TWRP installed yet......
[Asus Transformer TF700] wl123:
Oh, based on the what he said in question 1 it reads like he has TWRP installed. Oh well, he'll figure it out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Yeah, he SAID he had TWRP installed. But how if he's not unlocked?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
No problem at all! Thanks for the recommendation.

Although, I did try root explorer and I must say, it's not even close to ES File Explorer in terms of functionality - no dropbox, no smb, etc... Root Explorer is just a *very* basic file explorer in comparison to ES File Explorer.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the new ES FIle Explorer interface (kinda liked the old interface better), but it's still the most functional file explorer I've seen.

Sorry for sending this thread so "off topic" - at least I'm not the only one! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] inSaN1Ty_X:
Someone wrote about this on One X's forum and said that Read Ahead is only for non system files, so if you crank it even all the way up to 4096 the speed balance between system and non system files being read is gonna be enormous and affect performance.

Personally I have zero knowledge on this ..
[Asus Transformer TF700] Happs:
Well this is partly what has confused me and why I asked the question because I d/l TWRP via GooManager, it restarted the tablet and requested admin privileges and completed the installation process - all with only root, definitely not unlocked.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
That means it would have failed to install. Goo manager would not know you are not unlocked as it only needs root. You must be unlocked if you want to install a custom recovery.
