Have you flashed fsync_on after the ROM?

Form OP: "FSYNC: fsync_on.zip (fsync is off by default in the rom, if you want it on just flash this after the rom)

fsync off will make i/o run faster, but in case your tablet reboots or shutdown unexpectedly you might lose data more often than with fsync on.

So if your tablet tends to be unstable /reboots, if you overclock too much or that you tend to let it run out of battery, you might be better to turn fsync back on"

I love the progress of the rom!! amazing work!!

I have a question:

is there a way to get dock volume control while on the desktop(home screen)? the keyboard dock volume + - only work while in a app. I'm not sure if this is a new thing for the latest version of the rom.

while listening to music from a home screen widget you can only toggle the mute and not the volume . thanks !!

ignore the above post, I guess I needed a reboot after installing the rom. all is up and working. tapatalk wouldn't let me edit the above post btw.

Very strange issue after installation of this great rom.

I have mac address filter on my router and I discovered that mac address is different from Asus stock rom.

How is it possible?

Mac address is not an hardware thing?

Yeah, the fsync_on will help WHEN it does reboot; however, it does not prevent the reboot from happening. I do get these random reboots sometimes as well, but it has not proved to be a problem, so I am ignoring them :)

I learned an important lesson a week or so back that even having a nandroid backup isn't foolproof. On my phone (Samsung Galaxy S2 for T-Mobile), I lost my cell-radio drivers and can't get them to install from the stock images or my nandroid backup. Only one custom distro based on the original stock rom will work because it flashes the radio file.

Apparently I cleared one too many directories, by accident.

Moral of the story, even with a nandroid backup, be careful and check everything you do, before you do it. Otherwise you can still screw things up, even with a backup.

Bluetooth Mouse issues

Anyone try using a bluetooth mouse with TF101+dock? I was trying to work on homework when I needed to use a mouse (working on remote VMs). My razer mouse connects fine but the pointer does not move. It remains exactly where it was when I connected the mouse. The scroll wheel works and clicking works (though the left/right mouse buttons are strange at times -- anyway to remap them?).

Yes, I use a dock and Logitech bluetooth mouse all the time. It is not smooth, but it does work, and has worked on all the ROMs I have tried: from before 226 through to the current 027.

Tim, I have a feature request - Option to automatically change the UI mode when docked. I keep hiding and unhiding the nav bar when I am docked/undocked and it would be nice if it just happened automatically.

Tim,

You almost certainly already know about this, but there are reported issues with TWRP and Android 4.4 KitKat. I found this out just days ago when my wife and I finally upgraded our phones to the Nexus 4. Mine was rooted with an older version of Clockwork, which I upgraded in order to install a custom version of KitKat. I'd originally wanted to use TWRP instead of Clockwork, but fairly extensive discussions on line seemed to indicate that TWRP was having issues (at least on the Nexus 4) when KitKat was involved. I only mention this in case of the remote possiblity that your work w/ 4.4 is being snafued by TWRP somehow.

Anyway, so much for me advising you. ;)

AND... in an unrelated topic... for those still looking for a word processor / Office suite that runs on THIS rom, I'd note that Google's purchase of and tweaking of Quick Office is well worth the download, esp. since it is FREE and interfaces nicely w/ Google Drive and other Google tools. Google is serious enough about Quick Office that they've actually packaged it inside the KitKat 4.4 release; clever attempt to further erode Microsoft's Office.

Carry on! Blessings.

Very impressed - only issue is delayed power on

Hi everyone,

I've mostly been a lurker, read all posts, read Federuco's how-to root guide on transformer forums and decided to give this ROM a try.

I had pretty much abandoned my TF101 because of how unstable it was with stock rom. Between sleep of death, random reboots, force close it was pretty much useless except for casual gaming and surfing. Couldn't use Gmail, nor Maps, typing long documents would slow it to a crawl, etc. Anyway...

It's been three weeks on KatKiss 4.3 build 026 now. After the early days of testing, flashing, nandroid backing and a couple of back and forth to make sure I had transferred all apps and data this ROM has been the stablest my tablet has ever been, much better than stock rom. And fast too, even without overclocking. Battery life is good, Wifi is good, GPS is good, etc.

Up until this morning, it had run 14 days (I know, we shouldn't be ecstatic but based on Asus rom track record, anything beyond 4 days uptime amazes me...). No crashes, no reboott. It's so good I dare not move to build 027 :P.

One single issue that another user has posted about is the delay when turning on. And that could be the cause of this morning's sleep of death (though I'm not sure that's what it was).

When hitting the power button, it might take a couple or more of seconds before the screen turns on. Now, my power button is finicky, so sometimes, that delay had me thinking that the TF101 wasn't turning on, and often when I went to push again, I could see the screen briefly turn on and off again. Like it registered both power button pushes at the same time.

And often (not always) this causes a "sleep of death" if I press power a third time too soon.

So I learned to be patient, but this morning it took longer than usual and I pressed a third time and ended up rebooting (=long power button press).

This is the only issue with this ROM. I will read further threads to see how I could collect data to pass on to Timduru.

Oh, and a donation is coming your way for your excellent work.

Cheers,

Eric

BusyBox_v1.21.1

Currently the BusyBox included in KatKiss (#027) is:

BusyBox_v1.20.2-jb_bionic. I've pulled:

BusyBox_v1.21.1-jb_bionic from the latest CyanogenMod and packaged it as a flashable zip.

BusyBox_v1.21.1-jb_bionic.zip

md5: db02b49fba888e8e725f657d8ee0e8b3

The installer script will overwrite the current BusyBox and symlink all applets to /system/xbin/busybox so it is not exclusive to this ROM and can be installed on other (ARM) devices.

Visit the BusyBox link in my signature for more builds (e.g. linusyang, Stericson) and a flashable cleaner zip to remove all symlinks in /system/xbin that point to BusyBox.

Are you referring to the "sdcard 0" which is in fact in internal memory, or an external sdcard (either USB or MicroSD slots)? And what word did you mean to type instead of "smiling"?

The internal memory is of course mounted on startup and any files in there will usually be accessible as soon as you go to your desktop and start using apps.

Hope this is helpful... but if you answer the above others will be better able to help.

Similar with everyone else,love this rom. I upgraded from katkiss 4.2 #226 to #27, main reason is the multi windows feature. Clean flash and full wipe. So far, I notice there few issues that does not exist #226.email application does not sync with my hotmail, kept saying waiting to sync. Another thing is MicroSD not detected as "sd card (2)" by total commander. Work fine on #226 though. Flipboard app kept crashing after using for a while. Anyone else experience the similar issue? I wrote to the flipboard support,they replied does not support custom rom. Not sure whether because of missing NEON extension. Encounter few random reboot/system hang. Overall, #226 seems more stable. But hard to give up this multi windows features. Thanks Tim.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] csb5731:
Honestly, in all of KK 4.3 (running it for months), I have experienced a single RR. I think that was version 25. So I haven't noticed a difference in stability vs, KK4.2. Every once in a while I am kicked out of the browser (very rare). Total Commander I get to microSD via /extSdCard. Email occasionally snags when syncing from my Comcast/AOL, I have to swipe away the app in task switcher then relaunch, but it doesn't happen very often. I can't remember if it did or did not do that with 4.2 in my case. Don't know about Flipboard.

I've been using #027 since the day it came out and previously #026.

I absolutely love this rom.

I am having an issue though and that is, over time, my tablet continually gets slower. I don't play with it in the sense of continually adding / removing apps and such and after a fresh install with all my apps it runs beautifully for a couple of weeks and then starts to slow down.

Yesterday it was very slow to the point of becoming unresponsive so I decided to reboot. It went into a boot loop so I had to do a full wipe and reinstall again to get it back.

I'm not sure if my device is reaching the end of its life (I always have it OC'ed to 1504mhz) or if there is a memory leak of sorts in the rom.

I have the memory display in my recents app screen and even after doing a "kill all" I noticed that over the course of a couple of weeks the amount of available memory slowly goes down, even after a reboot.

I haven't really investigated as the performance degradation occurs over a long period of time but was wondering if anyone else who has been using this rom for awhile has experienced anything similar ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] just lou:
I notice all my Android devices get sluggish if I go more than a few days without rebooting or shutting down. If you're going a "couple of weeks" , it does not surprise me. My performance always returns to normal after a reboot.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] csb5731:
I think there is a memory leak sometimes seen if running in phablet mode (I think with the clock or date enabled, can't remember, discussed somewhere in this thread), but I haven't seen it in Tablet mode UI. I shut down my tablet every couple weeks to do a nandroid, but I haven't seen this slowdown or memory leakage in those spans of time (I have an old Tegra 2 phone where this DOES happen, but not with my current TF101 setup).

Also, have you tried running at a lower clock speed just to verify if it makes a noticeable improvement in performance? I used to run entirely overclocked @ 1400 -1500mhz under KK 4.2 and EOS. But I haven't bothered to overclock 4.3 for quite some time, plays games like Riptide GP 2 just fine and stock browser is fast and smooth. Desktop transitions (under Nova Launcher at least) are smooth. Little bit better battery life it seems. Yes, benchmarks are slower at stock speed but I am not seeing a real-world difference in my usage model.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] the.teejster:
That's a good point and i have been running in Phablet UI mode the previous two weeks. After the reinstall last night I re-enabled it and noticed immediately that it was choppier than the default Tablet UI mode so I left it on Tablet UI.

I also did reboot my device whenever I noticed the slowdown. In my case it didn't make a difference and the last reboot ended in a boot loop (not getting past the Asus logo).

You may have nailed it with the Phablet UI.. That's the only "change" I made in recent weeks.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gadgetrants:
To the two or three folks with "gradual slowdown" issues...I won't assume that you have the long-date-memory-leak-issue, but one way to check that something fishy is going on is to run an app like SystemPanel and then peek at how much memory System UI is consuming. My tablet runs for days and days (I keep it plugged in) without rebooting and System UI is steady at about ~30MB. If you're seeing 50 or 100 or 200MB it's probably the leak.

Regardless of whether you're using Tablet or Phablet mode I'd make sure the date display is turned off on the notification bar. Of course that may be more than is necessary but yeah, it works. As for sluggishness immediately after a reboot, that on the other hand sounds more problematic (e.g., "rogue" app?). I'd consider running a log and asking Tim to take a look.

If I remember correctly, you are the only person to report this 'red thing around the screen' issue. Any response from me would be a guess, since I've never seen it on my own tablet nor have I seen it reported by anyone else. That isn't to say it isn't true in your case -- but it does sound like a possible hardware issue that's (if we take this whole thread's contents as a test of sorts) quite rare. I hope you find the reason for it and also discover a fix.
