Wow. Really flying. Using _that's kernel.

That's kernel runs really really well but while I was reading I was still seeing black lines so I switched back to max's kernel. Not seeing lines is a wonderful thing but max still has some bugs to worked out.

Tried as you said, but still stuck in the boot sequence showing "Android is upgrading - starting apps".. What pissed me off is I cannot even boot up the tablet even I re-flashed the CROMi-X 4.6.8 thereafter. I have to wipe the data/system/cache/dalvic and re-flash again to get the tablet to work again. :(

TWRP bootloop

Hello,

I attempted to install the newest version 4.6.8 over 4.6.4 and I am now in a loop that will only boot into TWRP. I tried to install my backup but that only boots to the ASUS screen and freezes there. I wiped everything already and tried to install the 4.6.8 again with no luck. I am now downloading the 4.6.8 zip file again to try.

Anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Jake

GPS Issues

I know it's been asked before in this thread, but I haven't seen a proper answer. I'm not able to get a GPS lock without wifi turned on. Using GPS Status, I just get a constant "Looking for GPS location." If I do the same with wifi on, I'm able to get and maintain a lock, so it seems that my GPS works, but it seems to need the jumpstart from A-GPS. Anyone else experiencing the same or have a workaround? Incidentally, I'm currently on 4.6.6 stock on Infinity. Happy to try the latest build including patch but I don't see any mention of gps in the changelog...

[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] ,

Have you ever considered making a shared SVN repository for your ROM changes? With ROMs that have changes in SVN, it's way faster and even easier for SVN users to get updates. And it uses a whole lot less bandwidth than everyone downloading the entire ROM every time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Indurus:
I got similar problems after flashing 4.6.8 over 4.6.5...I was stuck in die Boot-Animation, sometimes it made it a bit further to the "Android is upgrading - starting apps".. screen!

The only way to get it run again was a Factory Reset. I wiped /data partition as well as /cache and /dalvik then flashed 4.6.8 again and it worked!

[Asus Transformer TF700] MarkAndroid:
I installed the kernel MaxV4beta after trying the new _that v3 and the difference is remarkable.

I no longer have the lag and also the widget will update immediately. Everything is fluid. It seems another ROM.

I used the Kernel V4beta because the RC1 version of me does not work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] TechXero:
Just updated to 4.6.9. Besides longer boot time all is good....

Hi, I had this problem also, but with Huawei Quad XL (4.0.4)

Try to installing GPS Status from market and download once A-Gps data.

This helped me a lot last time visiting US (I m from Europe)
[Asus Transformer TF700] seriouser:
Great ROM, smooth, love the old 4.1 UI. :cool:

I've only got two gripes with the ROM. First the WiFi process seems to really eat the battery even with the optimization selected. Using 4.6.9 and that v3 kernel.

The second problem concerns Bluetooth audio quality with A2DP. I tried the latest CM10.1 nightly and it exhibited much less distortion when listening to the same song with the same app. I've only got DSP manager installed but nothing's enabled in it.

Is this because of CM using the AOSP bt stack or is there something I could do to fix this short of switching to CM which I really don't want to do.

Thanks for the rom.

Reflash CROMi-X

Can I reflash CROMi-X over v4.6.8 ODEX Full Rom + 4.6.9 Patch ?

If so, do I need a wipe after reflash?

Reasonable boot time?

How long should it take to boot after flashing 4.6.8 and 4.6.9? My tablet has been running the boot animation for nearly 10 minutes now.

Scott
[Asus Transformer TF700] seriouser:
That's way too long. Something's gone wrong. Try to restore a backup if you've got one or install the rom again. Wiping the cache and dalvik cache might also help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ushlambad:
I am in the US, as a matter of fact. Is this a known issue? I realize I can download A-GPS data once for a location (as suggested by powder man) and this should mitigate the problem, but that isn't really all that helpful where I really need it (think camping in a new remote location, and I want to use Sky Maps, or just GPS Status to get coordinates in case of emergency). Why does this happen to US users?
[Asus Transformer TF700] powder man:
sbdags, thx for answering, think it is a combination of both, because mx player and/or dolphin worked

pretty well with/on CleanROM Inheritance 3.4.4 plus I will switch to "normal" dsp back on next update.

and again im using stock kernel and a very conservative setup at all :angel:

also just found out that wireless is disconnecting from time to time, workaround is to reload wifi or

wait few secs then wifi will start working again.:crying:

but, I think all of that has nothing todo with your work - that's asus' blame;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] RSchlierbeck:
No improvement

Thank you. I restored from a backup and verified the MD5 on both 4.6.8 and the 4.6.9 patch. Then tried to flash again. The 4.6.8 seemed to go fine. I rebooted and then flashed the 4.6.9 patch. Then rebooted and it just stays stuck at the boot animation. I may try to download both files again and repeat the process but 4.6.7 seems to be quick and stable so I may just stay with it.

Thanks again.

Running CRI 4.6.9 with MaxKernel v4RC, and I noticed that my CPU was stuck on 475, even though I had maximum set to 1800 with touchdemand gov. Rebooting fixed it, but I seem to remember it happening once before, maybe a few weeks ago. Has anyone else seen this? Is it the kernel?

Bootloader Mismatch?

What happens if you have a US bootloader and try to flash the WW version of the ROM or WW bootloader and try to flash the US version?

Scott
[Asus Transformer TF700] seriouser:
I don't think it'd make a difference. Not sure though. I think I've been using an Us bootloader with the WW version for months and haven't seen any problems. But I'd wager it's still best to use the proper versions.

With an older phone I had having the wrong bootloader caused either bootloops or graphical glitches during boot.

Anyone noticing a brighter screen (brighter whites) as if the gamma has been turned up? It seems to do it on in off randomly ut i never catch the transition because its so suddle.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RSchlierbeck:
I'm posting this incase it is useful to someone else.

Bootloader was 4.6.1.14.4 (not sure if it was US or WW)

CROMiX 4.6.7

TWRP 2.5.0.0

The suggestion to make sure I had the latest bootloader and that the versions matched made sense.

I flashed the 4.6.1.14.8 US version

Rebooted and let everything load. Tablet functioning normally as far as I could tell.

Rebooted to recovery and flashed 4.6.8.

Rebooted and let the upgrade finish.

Rebooted into recovery and flashed the 4.6.9 patch. The flash happened extremely fast.

Rebooted and let the tablet load.

Everything seems to functioning normally.

The two things I will do in the future are:

1. Always have the latest bootloader correct for my region.

2. Use the same region ROM as my bootloader.

Thanks for the suggestions.

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sounds like you have Asus smart dimmer turned on. Turn it off in Asus customised settings.

Yes your problem is that the ROM uses a ww GPS config file. I need to find the files for the us specific install and include them. I'll add it to the list of things to do.

Sometimes I wonder... The last 5 posts above yours answer your question?

And the solution to your lag probably is - as always:

Do a clean install wiping EVERYTHING. Re-install your apps and data in small batches and check performance in between.

Some part of your setup is causing it.

[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Oh, my bad:( You can play around with Read Ahead buffer if you installed Cromi later than 4.6.5. You can gain some read speed. With Fsync off, you can gain some write speed which is a nice combination for a slow I/O. I tweaked my device quite a bit to my preferences. Therefore, it is no longer original Cromi X anymore.

[Asus Transformer TF700] MHotovec:
Mine downloads nice and fast too, but it pretty much brings the tablet to it's knees when it actually installs the apps - this has been true of every device I've had. It makes a certain amount of sense to me that this particular process would be processor intensive. And it also makes sense that installing an app would get priority over, for instance, drawing a web page. We DON'T want an app to be 3/4 installed now do we. :)

My suspicion is that app installation is given priority over everything else so that it is installed/setup/granted rights correctly.

I often see the same thing on a PC when installing a program, at some point in the process everything else running on the PC slows down for part of the installation process.

These are my setting: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0, ro.VISIBLE_APP_ADJ=1. PLEASE BACKUP YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE TWEAKS. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OF THESE TWEAKS. IT IS YOUR OWN DECISIONS :D GOOD LUCK.

Please add this to your testing: ro.EMPTY_APP_ADJ=15, echo "xxxx,xxxx,xxxxx,xxxxx,230400" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree for better manage your memory.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Hang on 230400 is a bit high.

That is 230400 * 4 /1024 = 900MB

That is unrealistic to expect the system to try and keep 900MB free when it only has 1GB to start with. I currently set it to 90MB which works reasonably well. Where have you got this figure from? I know it's for empty apps but still. Did you want 200MB?

[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
That is the point. I want the system to kill all unused apps because it is useless. I used that number since I use your ROM. Not a single problem but whatever number is reasonable to you is fine. I always like to keep a big reserve memory to prevent it from lag under heavy loads. It just my thought ;)

[Asus Transformer TF700] primaleph:
I bought the full version of LagFix, but it doesn't show up in my apps, even though I've installed it. Could this be because the free version is installed in /system instead of /data?

Also, Browser2RAM seems to make my browsers (both stock and Dolphin) prone to crashing and freezing. I'd like to help narrow down the cause of this if I can. Is there a log file that might be helpful for me to post?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Possible - you can try to delete the free version in /system (remember to remount rw first) and see if it helps.

Browser2RAM should make your browsers faster, not unstable! :) Crash details are logged into the Android system log, which can be displayed with "adb logcat" from a connected computer, or with various apps directly on the device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:

All my knowledge is based on research and past experiences, not as an expert or developer. That is why I only Reply instead of Post anything on this Forum.

Third, I just check my adj and minfree and realize that I made a typo, 4 instead of 3. Fourth, for some reason, my minfree did not updated the numbers that I have on my script. Maybe, Sbdags is right about the ridiculous number I tried to write to the system. Maybe, you and Sbdags have an answer for that, cheer. BTW, these are the contents that you asked for:

No, I didn't install it as an app. I installed it as part of the rom, and quickly had to turn it off because of instability.

[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
I'm not sure why lagfix doesn't show, unless it didn't actually install. It might not if the other was installed with ram and is in system/app. Reinstall rom without lagfix, then just install pro normally when rebooted. Don't select it on new roms and pro will stay installed. Thats what i do.

With all this CIFS talk I searched it and saw it's a file sharing protocol... How do we use it on our tablets?
[Asus Transformer TF700] GrimSage:
I would suggest www.github.com actually (free lots of people already use it).

So what you do is upload all the code files, and any scripts you use. not the zip files, pointless to version control them, but the "raw" files before any processing you do to them via build tools (scripts or command line stuff to package them into zip or build the odex)

Then put up any directions or steps you take to build the odex version or the zip files or the aroma stuff.

People can then take that and possibly build it themselves, see exactly what changed from build to build.
