I rooted my device the other day after updating to the newest ASUS firmware. Do I still need to flash the new bootloader or is this only for people who rooted older versions of ASUS's firmware? I read the relevant threads but it is still not clear to me. Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
You need to have the 10.6.x bootloader on your device - in your case, you got it with the Asus 10.6.x firmware, so you don't need to install it again.

a couple a week's back there was a big scare with Cwm and i switched to twrp ive been wanting to switch back to cwm but don't want to brick my device from what i've read its ok to got back as long as you don't wipe the one data partition i only update using built in cm updater. i should be ok to switch back correct ?

Thanks guys

I'm about to flash this on my device. I am on stock unrooted unlocked JB 4.2.1 and I think I already have the correct bootloader so I don't need to flash anything. I just need to get this straight:

1. Unlock my bootloader and root following the steps on this thread (is this thread correct?):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2252563

2. Download CWM touch, CM 10.1, and GAPPS.

3. Place all files on internal sdcard.

4. Flash CWM touch through fastboot. (This is the part I don't know how to do, if anyone could tell me how I'd appreciate it)

5. Factory reset.

6. Flash CM and GAPPS.

Is that it? Please help. Thanks in advance!
[Asus Transformer TF700] SOTK:
I'm a little behind the times on the current unlock/root procedures since I unlocked mine like 9 months ago; however, that being said, if you can get your device to unlock utilizing latest procedures, do so and then immediately install either CWM or TWRP through fasboot. Don't worry about rooting. If you're going to install CM or another custom Rom, there is no need. Your device will be wiped and the Rom will be pre-rooted.

Your step by steps look ok. Basically, download latest nightly and gapps and put on internal storage, unlock, fastboot recovery, go into recovery and do a Nandroid, wipe system/cache/dalvik/data, install nightly and gapps, and reboot. Yes, since you are already on 4.2. 1 you have correct bootloader.

As far as flashing the recovery through fastboot, I know there is a thread here on Xda with instructions and links to files you need. It's not difficult as long as you have the drivers installed on your computer so your computer recognizes fastboot and as long as you follow the instructions in the thread. Good luck!

A quick glance found this thread with tutorials on unlocking/rooting/recovery/etc. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1833212

For flashing recovery via fastboot, a tutorial is in that thread. Scroll down some (in OP) and you'll see it. Basically, you need the Android SDK, recovery blob file, and have the windows drivers installed so that windows will recognize fastboot. A quick glance showed their were links to the files you need. Just read the directions a couple of times and follow them carefully.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Non Sequitur:
Thanks for the help! I think I had a general idea of what I was doing, just needed confirmation that I wouldn't have an expensive brick.

Anyway, what I ended up doing was unlocking and rooting through the first link, then installing TWRP through Goomanager and flashing the ROM and Gapps.

The ROM is pretty great, except for a few transitions. The notification bars are very laggy, as well as the animation when opening up the app drawer. Is there any fix for this? If there is, it'd be perfect.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mmoreno79:
Hey everyone, hopefully someone can help me out with my problem.

After flashing the new bootloader my tablet won't boot up anymore. I've tried holding the power button down for 10, 15, even 20 seconds but all I get is one vibration and no power. I tried holding volume +/- and the power button down too but that didn't work either.

I've searched around and found a few threads similar to my problem but I'm just going the outcome isn't the same as theirs - a brick. Anyone experience anything similar?
[Asus Transformer TF700] SOTK:
I can confirm that from what you described you are bricked. Sorry. :( Depending on how bad, you may be able to find a tutorial on how to fix it. Flashing the new bootloader shouldn't have done this. Wondering if you had a corrupted download? Well, good luck.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Impossible - the bootloader won't flash anything over itself that doesn't have a valid signature.
[Asus Transformer TF700] SOTK:
Didn't know that. Good to know. So, even if you were to flash say the wrong device bootloader, the signature wouldn't match and would therefore not install?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
I don't know if Asus uses the same key for multiple devices - if they do, maybe you could indeed flash a bootloader for a different device (which would be a bad idea) - but you won't be able to flash a bad download or a modified bootloader.
[Asus Transformer TF700] SOTK:
Cool. Yeah, I've never (or would ever) flash an improper bootloader but have heard of others doing things like this. I was curious by your "signature" statement and was wondering if the signature would also prevent a tf300 bootloader from being flashed to our device. Just curious. At any rate, I wonder how in the world he bricked his device than?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
I have nvflash backups so I could most likely recover from such a test, but I am not curious enough. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rand Brittain:
ADB is giving me trouble, so apparently not. Would you like a bug report?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jruesga:
Thx but no. You can make bug reports only on Stable, RC o M, and a logcat is required when you fill the jira issue fields.

Check http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_debugging_with_logcat
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rand Brittain:
Yeah, I'm getting a "device offline" error, and I think there's something wrong with my SDK manager install that's not letting me do the RSA verification correctly, because the program won't seem to load.

I'll send a logcat if I ever get this sorted out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jruesga:
Looks as if your sdk need to be upgrade. With the 4.2.2 release, google changed the adb protocol. Now your clien must be authorizate prior to establish the connection. Prior versions of the adb binary doesn't supports this new fearure.

Just upgrade your sdk to the lastest version and accept the prompt in the device the first time you connect your device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
Guys, where can I get the latest Bravia Engine to add to this ROM?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rand Brittain:
I did that, but the SDK manager still won't load and adb still registers the device as offline even after accepting the prompt.

Has anybody else noticed a degradation in some kinds of performance connected with using the CyanogenMod updater? It took me a while to spot it, but the smoothness of ezPDF definitely starts to suffer after having gone from nightly-to-nightly via the updater, and returns to the highest level of smoothness after wiping and flashing a new ROM.

Has anybody else seen something similar and do they have any idea why it might be the case?

Not waking up from sleep

I've been having issues with it never waking from sleep since I did a factory reset and installed RC2 -- had a hell of a time trying to do a simple update for all the updates since early April -- it was running just fine but every time I installed an update it wouldn't boot, so I kept going back to an early-April backup. I finally gave up and wiped everything and put RC2 on, but now it keeps falling into a coma.
[Asus Transformer TF700] dasunsrule32:

[Asus Transformer TF700] Nerva:
That website does not look the slightest bit intuitive.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Silanea:
Looks like I am not the only one affected. Symptoms:

Flashing a current nightly (w/ full reset and flush): Android boots to lock screen, I can unlock, start apps etc., but after a few seconds the system freezes completely. Automated restart after ca. 20 seconds.

Flashing a current nightly w/o full reset after an older nightly (see below) OR flashing a nightly and the current GApps package from goo.im/gapps w/ full reset and flush: The CM bootscreen freezes after a few seconds, reboot after ca. 20 more seconds.

Flashing an older nightly (latest I could find was 15 Apr): no issues whatsoever. Boots fine, runs smoothly, no freezes, no crashes, nothing.

If someone could provide me with all nightlies from 15 Apr through 15 May I would be willing to go through each of them and try to find the point of breakage.

Stock Browser problem

Two bad things happen when running CM10.1 and the stock browser; can anybody help point to a solution?

Firstly, when I type the screen moves up on every key press...which is both annoying and weird.

Secondly, the top of the screen (in expanded desktop mode, with full screen lab running) gets corrupted - legacy downloading blue lines and tabs - which should disappear remain in a kind of blocky pattern across the top of the screen.

Any ideas from the brains trust out there? The first problem happens pretty much all the time, the second is more sporoadic. I'm on CM10.1 Nightlies - been the same with various versions of CM10.1.

Tried a clean install yesterday - problem still there. :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Silanea:
Re. freezing issues: Thank you very much, flashing the new bootloader solved the problem. Though, curiously, only if I flashed bootloader, CM and GApps in one go, without intermittent reboots or wipes. Any other procedure left me with the issues described. I do not know if there is a significant number of people running CM without GApps, but if one of you is reading this, it might be helpful if you could chime in and report whether you have seen any issues like mine. The presence or absence of GApps should have no bearing on CM's stability, right?
[Asus Transformer TF700] midimench:
I installed the nightly and then gapps (December 2012 date) without any steps in between, and things work just fine. I did wipe both caches before installing the 1st nightly and then never again. Good luck.

Ad-Hoc network support?

Can we see ad-hoc networks?

My S3 on 10.1Rc1 can see and connect fine to ad-hoc network on my laptop wifi, but TF700T cannot see it at all. I tried adding manually, also. No go though.

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 PM ----------

Is it possible or wise to move apps to external SD in CM10.1 ? From what I can tell, CM/Google has dropped support of this completely, which is disappointing for me, because:

1. I like the freedom

2. I've had great use of this feature in the past

3. I keep thinking that apps on fast SD would substantially alleviate our internal device storage woes

4. perhaps with creative use of fast SD, we could even make use of it for other more core OS components.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] watsonmf:
Just use Data2SD.

Bryce Kernel has recently added support for Data2SD in version 4.1 (found Here). Just setup your card for Data2SD, install the latest CM10.1 nightly, then flash Bryce kernel and you are good to go.

Just read the posts in Bryce's thread as well as the Data2SD thread before getting started.

Boot Loops / System Freezes

I tried all the above, but I'm still experiencing boot loops / system freezes.

I'm using CWM 6.0.3.1 (but also tried older versions like 6.0.2.3 and TWRP)

After doing a Factory Reset within CWM I did the following:

1. Installed TF700_421_WW_BootRec_Flasher_Signed.zip Bootloader

2. Installed cm-10.1.0-RC3-tf700t.zip

3. gapps-jb-20130301-signed

4. Rebooted the device

5. Boot loops and system freezes again :)

Am I missing something?

btw. I've tried older versions of CM (some early april builds) and also flashed a Asus original Rom - in both cases I had no problems at all. The device was runnint stable for hours/days.

Any advice is highly welcome.

[Asus Transformer TF700] dasunsrule32:
You need to use the bootloader package from the cm op.

When you finish flashing the boulder bootloader, you MUST reboot, then you can flash the ROM and gapps.

[Asus Transformer TF700] watsonmf:
Great work on the recent nightlies. Everything has been running fast and smooth.

One small problem that I am having is that the recents (task manager) button will randomly stop working and I have to undock the tablet to fix it. Has anyone else been experiencing this? I have seen it on clean installs of both RC3 and RC4.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Giovanni19850420:
what is the different between Nightlies and Rc4 rom? Are this has a black vibrating line on display, and external hard drive problem? Or how can I fix this lines problem?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] jruesga:
Nightlies contains new features and patches (the upstream code) and may contain bugs and bad behaviours. The RCs contains incremental patches with feature freeze, and the previous steps throught an stable release.

About the black line is caused by the nvidia blobs. Can't be fixed for now.

For the external drive, read the known issues in the op of this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957660

[Asus Transformer TF700] jruesga:
Ext2fs has stable suport for read/only. Rw is unstable and could cause data loss. I don't know any safe sotware for write on ext4 partitiond under windows. If you are going to copy a big file one, then you can use a linux live image.

Other option is to install the android sdk, install the adb usb driver for your device and use adb push to copy the file:

adb push <path to windows file> <device destination folder>/

It's a bit slowly than mtp, but could be use as an alternative

I'm getting a lot of lag on this ROM. I've tried several RCs and nightlies, but nothing fixes it. What could be wrong?
[Asus Transformer TF700] :
I've been having some issues with trebuchet (I think) and the newer RCs and nightlies (not terribly specific, I know, sorry -- not sure when it started).

When I first boot up everything seems fine, but more often than not tapping any homescreen makes the homescreens move one screen to the right, whether it's a short or long tap or even if it's tapping on an icon, which should launch that app. Sometimes going into the app drawer and/or launching an app can temporarily resolve the issue (screen taps register as they should), but pretty soon it starts doing it again. Even holding down on an icon to remove it from the homescreen only registers seemingly as a swipe to the left (moving the homescreens to the right).

But wait, there's MORE! :)

If I go into an app or into the app drawer, and then come back to a homescreen, I can see the icons placed on that homes screen, but all the other homescreens have their icons blanked. ?? As in, if I'm homescreen #2, go into the app drawer, then go back to home screen #2, I can see the icons for #2, but no icons show for #1, 3,or 4. Moving to screen #3, then going into the app drawer and back to #3, now I can see the icons for #3, but not for #1, 2, or 4.

I've been sitting on this for a few weeks hoping it was just a "thing" that would get worked out in a new nightly. I just reset the tablet (formatted system, factory reset, reinstall cm10.1 and gapps, and it's still doing it.

Here's the kicker -- this does not happen with Apex Launcher. ??

Dansunsrule32, if you'd like to see logcats or any other info, let me know. If there's an extra special way to wipe everything clean and rebuild the tablet that will get rid of this I'm willing to give it a go. I haven't seen anyone else report this issue so I'm willing to concede it might be hardware (we'll try out that Squaretrade thing -- there's some screen separation going on, too, so I wouldn't feel bad about sending it in.).

Any help is appreciated. ;)
