Hey, thanks for the answer, while i would normally flash the system and look myself, i'm afraid to get problems when downgrading to lower version afterward (probably because it bricked devices most of the time on Symbian devices, and i think there was indeed a huge problem when downgrading from 4.2 to 4.1, tricky)

While SoD are very rare for me now using josteink's builds, i still get some, time to time, and i'm unsure tim's builds will 100% solve it, guess i will enable it "in case of problem".

Thanks you much for the answers !

Regards

I usually enable fsync because I have had 1 or 2 very rare random reboots. I've not had any SODs for a very long time though. I would suggest using the latest TWRP recovery and making a backup of /system, /data and '/boot' and wiping the internal memory before flashing. If you don't like what you see, then just restore your backup and be right where you left off.

Hey Tim, just to update after flashing 023 the Photosphere seems to be ok now. Prob the wipe /system helped

Thanks for 023 btw Show Mem Info in recents the text is chopped half if in Phablet UI, on Tablet UI its ok.

Hi!

Just "made the leap" from KK 4.2 to 4.3. Did a by the book install with full wipe and switch to TWRP recovery.

All went well. The TF101 is flying! Also impressed with how well it conserves battery while sleeping. Just dropped 2 percent last night.

Just one question : when I installed TWRP with Goo manager it got me a 2.3 version. Isn't that a bit old?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tuborg68:
Ok thanks!

But still weird that the official TWRP page says that you should get 2.6 version by installing from Goo manager.

But anyway: is there any obvious drawback using the old TWRP 2.3 recovery? I seldom do anything else but flashing roms and wiping in recovery.

Newer versions have a revamped wipe screen (tick the partitions to wipe and swipe once), exFAT support and the latest -2 build supports USB drives. Oh, and it checks for SuperUser / SuperSU and prompts if it isn't installed.

If you don't care about those, no biggie to stick with 2.3.2.3

KK22+gapp4.3 works very well on my TF, but there are some small issues:

1. Gmail icon is on home screen, but when clicked, gives message "app is not installed". Is gmail still in "gapps-KatKiss-4.3..."? I know gmail can be installed from play-store as an user app, just want to make sure whether it is still in the new gapp package. Any other removal from gapp package, except youtube, map, talk, gmail?

2. Sometimes, a small black message box apppears, saying "xx apps killed" (xx is a number). Don't know whether the message coming from ROM or an app. Anybody see this?

TLS 1.2 support?

Hi!

It seems as TLS 1.2 is not supported by KatKiss ROM (and many others too!). According to Google, Android 4.2 introduced SHA-2 with TLS 1.2, so I am thinking that perhaps the toolchain used to compile KatKiss doesn't have new enough SSL library (OpenSSL, GnuTLS, NSS, etc all support TLS 1.2 nowadays). Tim, can you verify this? TLS1.0 is broken, as well as RC4, so we really do need better support. Currently only Opera browser supports TLS1.2 since they use their own SSL library instead of the system one. FireFox and stock browser, including all email programs I have tried all use the OS library, and thus doesn't support more than TLS1.0.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Ca_PuNk:
so.. I have a doubt... until now when upgrading from 4.3 built #xx to 4.3 built #yy I never formatted /system.. now I see the changes made in the installation notes in the first 3d.. my question.. It's only for who came from 4.2 (or for who wants to make a clean installation)?

I cannot seem to get CIFS manager to mount my shares on my NAS with katkiss4.3 #23. I can get the mount to work in the app but it seems as if the mount is lost as soon as i leave it. Would really appreciate some assistance with this. On my android tv stick running 4.2 cifs manager works fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Mike_NZ:
In my case the BT share just doesn't work, rather than crashing - it used to work fine in KatKiss 4.2 versions and in preceding EOS versions.

Unfortunately Adhoc wifi isn't supported either, so I guess we'll just have to wait patiently for a fix.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
As others have said, official TWRP releases for officially supported devices will be available officially through Goo Manager. If you want an official release then you'll be stuck with 2.3.x.x at the moment. No real drawbacks other than a few potentially unsquashed bugs and missing improvements and additional features, along with greater 4.3 compatibilty. It is, of course, your choice to make.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:
I'm not sure why. I download the Gapps from OP (got KatKiss4.3-20130914.zip), don't have Gmail so I got it from Play Store. No big deal just reporting from my experiences. Maybe you got a different Gapps IDK.

Did you wipe the /system before flashing GAPPS?

The 4.2.2 GAPPS had gmail. New ones don't. If you had the old ones on version 020 or so, then upgraded without wiping /system before flashing, your GAPPS are a mixed bag and that's why they are not working.

I did a fresh install of 023 and the 4.3 GAPPS. No gmail.

You should boot to TWRP, wipe caches and /system partition. Install 023 or 022, install GAPPS, wipe caches and reboot. Then install GMail from the Play Store.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mgeniusm:
system wipe

There is absolutely no reason not to wipe system! I wipe system every rom flash regardless of version!

When going from on version to another (eg. 4.2 to 4.3) then it is recommended to do factory reset!

In upgrades (eg. 4.3 to 4.3) then it is recommended to do system wipe, This takes all of a few seconds and make sure there is no conflicting code left over from last flash! This process does not remove any of the user apps but still it is recommended to do a nandroid backup first!

In the case of 4.3 to 4.3 r2.2 Tim recommends doing a factory reset because there were significant changes in code to warrant this, And as Tim is the developer I reckon he knows best!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tuborg68:

Which path do you mount to? I found this xda thread about empty cifs moounted folders and feels like this is what´s happening to me

CIFS

About CIFS, the issue seems to be with SuperSU.

Someone mentionned that if you use SuperSU V1.45 it works fine, it doesn't work if you use a recent version.

So currently if you need just punctual file access you can use any network file manager, it'll work out of the box.

If you need mounting in the filesystem, you need SuperSU V1.45 and it should work too if you use SuperUser.

( as long as you mount outside of /storage and /mnt/shell)

If SuperSU doesn't fix the issue in the future,

I think I'll just see about switching to SuperUser most likely.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] :
I have SuperSu 1.65 installed. And it is working. Just trust the system user in the settings menu and your done.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Gatak:
The empty folders have nothing to do with SuperSU AFAIK. The problem is purely permission based. mount as the sdcard user and group, and it would be better to mount to /data/media/sdcard/cifs, since android runs fuse filesystem over it, removing certain fs features like links.

You can simply check this from the terminal app as super user. if you can list the files in the mount, but not see them in a normal file manager, then you have the wrong permissions. Check with ls -l

Yesterday I had the problem that my tablet was running very slow after installing Photoshop Touch (everything had imense delays). After a reboot, it did not come out of the start screen. Wipe cache / Davlik nothing has changed. Can it be that the tablet after a certain number of apps / occupied disk space is very slow?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
Have you ever tried this (from the OP):

Storage (fstrim) and Database optimization:

Fstrim is native in 4.3 and will happen in the background if your tablet is idle / sleeping and that your battery is > 70%

There is also a script to run it manually in the rom: /etc/kat/optimizestorage

To optimize the Database: /etc/kat/optimizedb

To run both, open a terminal and run:

su

/etc/kat/optimize

Be warned that the optimize storage can take from a few minutes to hours.

But the speed / lag will be greatly improved afterward

Shared MicroSD with multi-users

I am really enjoying this ROM. I have started using multi-users...thanks for fixing the notifications in tablet mode (although I am getting used to Phablet now).

Anyway, I noticed that all of the users have access to the microSD card (/sdcard1), which is great for sharing files/media. I was also using a TF300 with stock 4.2.1 and the access to the microSD was disabled except for the primary user. Is the shared microSD access for all users something that was added to KatKiss from the Google 4.3 source, or is it just ASUS that added in this "protection" to the their stock ROMs?

Many -- probably most -- folks using Android OS do not use flash any more. Adobe has abandoned it; Google isn't interested. I followed your travails over on the KatKiss 4.2 thread, and sympathize. But most of the advice you've gotten is about all there is to get. As far as the 4.3 KatKiss, I think you'll like it a lot other than the issues w/ flash. Maybe someone else will have better news for you on that front (many, as they said in the 4.2 thread, had luck w/ Dolphin browser and previous version of flash for Android, though you did not).

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] shonkin:
Are you using TWRP? If so, there should be a "factory reset" option under the wipe menus. The newest TWRP is (I think) 2.6.1c or some thing close to that. It says it is a beta, but works just fine. Install it if you haven't, or go ahead with an earlier version (2.3 at least, I suspect).

EDIT: As far as your apps and games, you *should* back up both before factory reset. If you fail to do this, it is likely you can still download and reinstall most or all of them via Google Play, which of course keeps track of anything downloaded from there. If you did a lot of third party installs (downloads from 4shared or other storage sites) some will appear in Google Play while others will not. No predictions on which will or won't.
