Hi everyone, please, I know you must have read tons of posts like this, but still, please.

I've a tf101g, reading that there was the chance of using a kernel that would make this rom work also on my model I wanted to try and my bad I've not made a backup of my old rom.

I placed both the 22 and the 23 version on the internal SD memory, installed them with CWM v5.8.3.4 and tried to restart the system, but it keeps rebooting and sending me to recovery... what can I do? is there any chance to recover the tablet?? please

---------- Post added at 02:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 AM ----------

is there any chance for me to load a recovery from the micro SD card? :( please

PS: I had downloaded and installed the add on kernel
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
Try a cold boot. Hold vol down and power for 12-15 seconds and then leave it be. Sounds like you have a recovery boot loop.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jakmes:
thanks for the hint, the cold boot worked, but now instead of being bounced again and again to the recovery I get the bootanimation over and over, the dog with 4 colored dots around him. Other suggestions on how to get past this point?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
Did you factory reset prior to flashing KatKiss?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] garyngkt:
Has anyone tried installing the new Gmail 4.6 APK with KatKiss?. Apparently some are getting bootloops after turning sync on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] philseven:
maybe the rom supports certain apk's.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mgeniusm:
Not a dog!!!

Thats no dog! Thats a Meerkat!

download twrp 2.6 zip copy to microsd and flash from recovery, Then factory reset and reflash rom, gapps
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jakmes:
yes, I proceeded to a factory reset

that's indeed my problem, how to transfer files from the microSD to the internal memory when I can't even boot the tablet with the CWM v5.8.3.4?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] YayYouFixedIt:
Wouldn't having some different themes and thrme support increase ui performance?

Assuming a themer has optimized the theme and theme Chooser is latest.

I switched to a theme on my n7. Seems to be faster. This jbextreme theme is noticeably faster

Is there any way to get the volume buttons to flip when the tablet is upside-down (so that volume up is always on the top and volume down is always on the bottom)? CM 10.2 can do this, and it's just about the only thing I miss since switching to KK :).
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
It is in KatKiss 4.2.2. Has not been added to this version yet.

---------- Post added at 10:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

Use ADB to push the zip to the internal memory.

I will send you a PM rather than clutter up this thread on how to do this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AstroTrain:
I thought 4.3 was suppose to fix the battery drain issues of Jellybean.

Did test overnight on Kitkass 023 with Wifi on during sleep to never or only when charging and the drain is about 6%. I have scanning always available unchecked.

Seems 4.3 is still a battery clunker. God I miss the ICS days when the drain overnight was 2%.

I see some reports from Kat 4.3 users claiming 2% overnight drain, what settings are you guys using?

I did complete wipe of everything, system, factory reset, partitions etc before install Kat rom.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MassStash:
Errrrr, what apps do you have that update automatically and how often do they update? 6% doesn't really sound that outrageous either tho. Try optimize battery on WiFi, think it kills Wifi while sleeping. Personally ha e never thought ics to be better than JB, that's crazy talk! Haha

Just a silly question. Can we import the beautiful script kat/optimize to any device such as my galaxy note phone and if yes, how?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] AstroTrain:
It shouldn't matter the amount of apps that update automatically since 4.3 gives the option to not allow apps to turn on wifi during sleep. That was the mainfeature that I read regarding 4.3 on the Android site. In fact the # of apps I have is limited since I just did a clean install of the 023 rom. JB is of course better overall OS than ICS, but one thing about ICS is the excellent battery usage stats than 4.2, 4.3 etc.

I checked the battery stats and it indicated wIFI on for 8.5 hrs (overnight) even though I set the option for it to disable wifi during sleep.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MassStash:
What option are referring to? You mean app permissions? Not sure it's like permitting them to use wife exactly plus, have to denied each app wife permissions then? Confused I am there haha.... Have you check optimized battery when wife on?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gadgetrants:
Not silly, it's an excellent question -- or at least I've been wrestling with the same issue.

Short answer. It's ROM-dependent, and also depends on whether/how the fstrim command is implemented in the kernel.

Here's a quick way to try out your other devices: download Lagfix (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkey.lagfix) from the play store and give it a try. You'll need to be rooted. Once you've run it (basically it creates a GUI for what you'd enter at command-line in a terminal window) it will immediately let you know (a) if it was granted root, and (b) if the command was executed.

My sense if "if it works" you can then bring on over the optimize script that we're using. Oh, fyi, the paid version of Lagfix lets you run it on schedule.

-Matt
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] karapoutsoglou:
thank you for the tip!

lagfix premium works perfectly in my phone and its essential to me.

so i will give a try with tim's script.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] curti.nogg:
See quote below regarding battery stats and wifi.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gadgetrants:

Running 4.3 #23 without problems until now. My tab ran out of battery, when I put it on the charger it did boot but kept hanging at the boot animation for over 10 minutes. I rebooted it and it stuck again.

For now I'm in recovery charging it.

Why is it boot looping and how can I fix it without a wipe?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
Try wiping caches in recovery then reboot and see if that helps.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] karapoutsoglou:
Yes! The script works flawlessly! Phone is flying, tim greatest dev in xda easily. :D:thumbup::eek:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mattgren:
Have you got auto rotate enabled in settings>accessibility?

If it's not that check that your sensors are working - CPU-Z or similar will tell you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] petenatas:
Here's why (from the 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

Now, you might want to try wiping dalvik and cache. If it doesn't work, wipe data. Still doesn't work, wipe system and reinstall the rom (with fsync ON patch) !
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] d3l1:
It started rebuilding the caches up until it says "starting apps" and it was stuck there again forever. Reboot and bootlooping animation again.

I never had any issues with this tab or KatKiss, so it's strange. Can I wipe system or does it look like a factory reset is necessary? I do have a working backup (nandroid and tb) but both are not up-to-date :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] bennnnnn:
re

i changed the language on dock it reset the system and the language havent change.. any ideas?

and now flash us work, but in severel sites its stuck with dolphin, and work with firefox and in other it suck with firefox and work with dolphin.. is there agood browser out there? except boat browser?

and also have problem with office suite, it said that it has to stop.. worked fine at katkiss 226.. thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] arcticbill:
Had the same issue, went through all of the suggested fixes short of a nandroid restore of the Data Partition (version I had was too old). If you have a recent copy, that's probably your last bet before the FR I went through.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
It's most likely some db that got corrupted / is not closed properly when you ran out of battery.

The thing is to find from which system app and either fix or wipe the db/app data.

One thing you might want to try also is to run the /etc/kat/optimizedb script from recovery,

it might need adjustments depending where you mount things though.

But if it runs properly and that you have /data/ mounted it *might* fix the db as it optimizes it.

follow post #2 procedure.

I'll just remove the Dock keyboard layout from the dock settings in the next version, will be easier that way.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dilfred:
Any reason or change in settings of the system directory?

I ask as systemapp remover does not work properly and comes up with an error "cannot mount system, cannot make system read/write"

I want to remove a couple of the apps loaded in system that i do not use.

Other roms have been no problem, eos for example.

Are the permissions xhanged?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
No particular changes, besides the way su works, systemapp remover might need to update for 4.3 in that aspect.

To remove a system app I'd suggest to use titanium backup , works fine for me.

You can also just run a terminal then:

su

sysrw

rm /system/app/XXXX.apk
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] bennnnnn:
thank u very much!!! you are the best!!!

works like a charm!! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] d3l1:
How do you recommend to do that? Is there a terminal console in twrp or du you suggest adb?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
There is a terminal in TWRP under Advanced I believe
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tuborg68:
Still struggling with cifs mounts and ending up with empty folders. I would really appreciate if someone who got it working could post a "cifs for dummies" with what apps, settings, paths that is working on this rom.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:

as it's missing libs and such in recovery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Cosolord:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] csb5731:
Haven't updated since v21, but like 2 weeks uptime now. I don't recall any app crashes or even getting kicked out of the browser. Getting eight hours of screen time on tablet alone if I turn off wifi when not using it (as good as when the battery was new 2 yrs ago and possibly better).

I didn't think a fully-baked 4.3 was going to be possible for the old TF (codec mainly), but I was underestimated the tenacity of Timduru. I am optimistic now for 4.4.

We are pretty lucky.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
Hi Tim, is there any way to increase the io speed of the micro SD card through the ROM? Would be a great if that were possible I think.

Specially when the external SD is used for data storage like in my case to further reduce overall lag.

I hate windows 8 and loved everything before it. And I actually stopped using themes, because they decrease performance.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] shonkin:
Okay, all, an issue here which may just be hardware...

Without warning, my micro-sd card just stopped being read by the tablet. I'm using KatKiss 23 w/ the 4.3 Gapps and, after this issue, also installed the fsync-on.zip file. That did result -- briefly -- in me getting access to the micro-sd card, but when I inadvertently let the tablet sleep for a few minutes it vanished from my file browser. Sigh.

Good news was I did get some of the newest files I'd not backed up from the card. Bad news is it is my main library for moonreader to grab my books (around 3500 of 'em!). Anyone with info on this issue, help appreciated. If not, I'll deal with it as best I can. Thanks.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] curti.nogg:
Did you check to see if the micro SD is still mounted in settings after the tablet goes to sleep? Do you have another device such as a phone or a computer to backup your data if necessary?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] d3l1:
Guess I'll make a nandroid backup, factory reset and restore the crucial apps from the nandroid backup via titanium backup.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
That was the goal of bringing different io schedulers & fsync off. :)

Lag is also greatly reduced with fstrim.

So all of that helps, but there definitely still seems to be something wrong with tf101 internal storage.

Not sure if it's an hardware limitation or bad asus kernel code...

Maybe I'll find out a way to fix that one day too ;P

Not tested myself but here's the method from mmysc
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
Maybe in 4.4 :)

Want to thank you again for what you have done for our tf. I never though it for possible but you pulled it off!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
New version 024

New rom version available: KatKiss-4.3_024.zip | md5sum

ChangeLog:

- Fix SDCard/USBDisks not being remounted after forced eject or dock sleep

- TrafficStats: Add compatibility with older kernels

(Fixes traffic stats for apps + traffic icons on signal cluster: wifi...)

- Fix Czech + German(Switzerland) Keyboard layout to qwertz

- Remove dock Keyboard layout option from Dock settings

(use Language&Input Settings, cf post #2)

- Fix NPE if an app sends a motion event without a proper deviceID

- Recents: Fix Mem Stats being cut in PhabletUI

- Update to KatKernel 108:

** Bring netfilter: xt_qtaguid from Kernel 3.4

** Add LIB802.11 + HostAP

** Restrict slave mountspace so Dalvik apps can mount system-wide volumes

(Fixes "empty folders" with CIFS and other mount apps)

Since SuperSU considers that it's a feature and not a bug, better change it directly on the kernel side ;)

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] d3l1:
Tim you are doing an awesome job keeping this tab alive!

About the corrupted db issue I'm facing, is it possible to create a script that loads the necessary libs and then runs your optimization script from recovery?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
well we're not even sure of what got corrupted in your data, it might not even be a db

so not really worth the trouble I'd say. It could have been something to try out if it worked out of the box.

Grab a logcat after it reached the starting apps and send it to me by PM.

Maybe I can spot what is corrupted in your data and we can wipe just that then.

Easiest would be to just do a nandroid backup of /data

then full wipe / reinstall the rom / restore apps you need from the nandroid without restoring system data imho.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] edd080:
Hi Tim many thanks for including the network traffic animation back on the network icon, keep up your excellent work. :thumbup:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] d3l1:
Thanks, I made a nandroid and did a factory reset. Strange thing is, with twrp 2.6.3.0, doing a factory reset wiped my internal memory so I'm glad I made the backup to my external sd :good:

I just finished booting the fresh install and am going to give TB a shot at restoring my apps from the nandroid. Sorry I can't provide a logcat anymore but I need my tab to be ready tomorrow.

Thanks for your help and all you do! If I happen to restore a corrupted db somehow, running your script before any reboot will fix it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
It might but it really depends how it's corrupted. If the db file is completely trashed it won't do miracles.

It shouldn't hurt to run it before rebooting anyway, yep. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mgeniusm:
One at a time

Maybe restore apps one at a time then if one of them is coruupt you will know which one!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Thor_Asgard:
GREAT !!!!

Thanks Tim :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
Without wiping anything else, a factory reset in TWRP should have only wiped out your user apps and data. It should not have completely wiped your internal memory, I.e. your downloads folder, Pictures, and Music, anything in /data/media/0 should have been preserved and it would just reset the ROM to the first start position where you set your Google account and such. But yes, all of your user apps and user data will be gone after a factory reset, but parts of the internal 'memory' are still there, such as your ROM and a few other things, including what I've already mentioned.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] d3l1:
I know and it is the first time ever this happened. I did a factory reset, manually wiped the system partition and then started installing katkiss and gapps. But everything in "sdcard" (/data/media/0) was gone. The external disc was ok, though.

Btw restoring user apps from a nandroid backup with TB is nearly perfect, some data like nova launcher couldn't be restored or was empty, but most of the stuff was fine.

If it is the exact same build, could we even restore system settings and data?

Gesendet von meinem Transformer TF101 mit Tapatalk 2
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mattgren:
The worry is that you might simply restore the corrupted system setting causing the original problem by doing that.

It's probably not worth the risk for the minor inconvenience.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
Last I tried, restoring a Nandroid taken with twrp 2.6.3.0 also works like a champ and restores everything back to the same state it was when the Nandroid was taken, with the same gotcha that you may just be restoring the corrupted data that is causing the issue.
