I do not really know how to test this.. Give me step by step instructions please and I will try.

I will say tho that I have not touched any part of any backup functions etc and it will probably be doing the same in stock rom which I can test also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dasdranamin:
Hi flumpster.

I have a question about HB 2.3:

Many apps show the screen resolution 752 x 1280 (instead of 800 x 1280)

It's not critical, but probably some programs may have a problems.

If I'm not mistaken it's enough to edit certain file.

What namely file is it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
The missing 48 pixels is the navigation bar.

Edit.. what I mean is the bar with Home, Back, Clock etc is 48 pixels. That is why your apps are reporting 752 instead of 800. That is their usable screen space.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dasdranamin:
Oh... Sorry :confused:

Definitely, I drank too much beer.... :laugh:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] golokipok:
Hello there, sorry for being a kid here. I just wanna confirm a few things before upgrading

1. Would the 2.3 bootloader wipe EVERYTHING, I mean like all the stuff, making my tablet really empty or would it leave my other files untouched? I'm currently on 2.2 so I was hoping if full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik) would suffice.

2. Is it safe to remove the sdcard being used during data2sd, would not it crash my tablet or cause end of the world?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
If you are already on 2.2 then the bootloader upgrade will go thru the same process but it shouldn't touch your internal files. I have done this quite a few times back and forth but I cannot guarantee it so if it is important please back it up.

I am presuming you want to use Hunds Kernel with data2sd, If I am wrong let me know.

Until I get 2.31 up I would suggest the following.

Install 2.3 following the instructions in first post but select stock kernel with data2sd.

Finish the rom setup and get it all working in the rom and then download the Kernel Installer from post 2 which includes a fixed hunds kernel and flash that and select hunds kernel with data2sd and then restart.

This way you will have all the selected items in aroma installed to the correct data partition and you install the fixed hunds kernel after.

Bootloader version

What version should the bootloader say after installing the 2.3 bootloader?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Off the top of my head without booting into it 10.6.1.27.1 or similar to.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] golokipok:
1. The fact that you had already done through a few times is enough to reassure me. I'm just confirming because the last time I upgraded the bootloader, it wiped everything.

2. Yup I'm planning to try data2sd. I'm just asking about the general concept of data2sd. Can I remove the sdcard without causing any problem or what if I inserted another card which is not the one I used for data2sd
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trogdan:
ah bummer, i'm having the same issue as with trying to flash 2.2. I flashed the 2.3 bootloader/recovery upgrade, no blue bar on reboot, and going back into recovery shows 10.6.1.8-20130225 :/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You have to make sure that your sdcard is set up correctly with gparted before attempting data2sd. I don't even support it because so many people have problems setting it up. I just include it for people who know how.

Here's some info.

You cannot eject the sd card when the operating system is running when on data2sd.

If you are using Hunds kernel with data2sd then some things are different to stock with data2sd as listed below...

If you turn the machine off and then boot with no sdcard or an sdcard with no ext partition then the tablet will boot using internal data.

If you boot up with any sdcard in with ext partition then it will use that for data.

All of these appear as completely different installs and setups.. You can Install all your kids apps without an SD Card in the slot and then have a completely different setup when you put your SD Card in.

You can then have for example..

No SD Card or SD Card With No EXT Partition... My Kids Prime With Her Shortcuts And Games.

Random SD Card With EXT Partition..... My Work Prime With All My Work Apps

Random SD Card 2 With EXT Partition..... My Games Prime With PWNAGE...

If you boot up with a different sdcard and ext partition you can have a completely different setup.

Hope that makes sense.. I just read it back and it baffled me lol ;)

Need a drink now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trogdan:
Is there a link to HB 2.1.1 somewhere so that i can boot a fresh image since i seem to be stuck on an older bootloader?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
You are all set to install this ROM. You just need to follow the instructions for the two-step installatiojn in the first couple of posts of this thread.

Just note though that if you have copied the two files "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip" & "Hairybean 2.31.zip" to your micro-SD card but you cannot see them from the Flatline Recovery, then you will need to install a TWRP Recovery (for JellyBean) first - some of us found the CWM recovery left behind by Flatline did not recognise our external SD cards.

If you can see your two files from the CWM Recovery then fine, just go ahead with flumpster's guide. If not, get the instructions on how to flash TWRP (Recovery Image / Fastboot Method) and latest JB blob download from HERE.

Any guide (with F2FS) for TF201 users ?? (currently in Androwook 2.31).

And some questions for this Crombi-KK ROM:

- With "ASUS" style ROMs we are able to change performance profile, can we do it with this ROM also ?? if the answer is "no" are we locked in one of them ??

- What about IPS / IPS+ modes ?? are we locked in one of them ?? are we able to change it ??

- What about "system bar lock" function ?? we loose it?

- Keyboard dock support ??

-Will F2FS installation break future non "-KK" ROMs installation ??

- Known problems ?? or anything we should know ??

- It worths upgrading from androwook

- Should we better wait for something else here in TF201 forum ??

So many questions.... Sorry :(

TY for all the help !
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
You can change performance modes in "settings - Performance". There are no ips+ buttons, but you can change display brightness to full which is the same thing. I don't think you would need a system bar lock since it is KitKat. Keyboard dock works fine. F2FS is just a new format for your data partition, so it is reversible, you just have to go back to a non-f2fs twrp and reformat.

Known issues:

Some have Bluetooth problems... I am not.

I have had "delayed starts" when you press the power button to wake up the tab, it takes a while for it to come on. I've adjusted my voltages using trickster mod and so far, I'm not seeing this anymore.

Is it worth it? I like it but you will need to read up some. Go back to post 1352 in this thread for the basic install steps. Further down that page, I reference the page for f2fs instructions. Also read up some in the crombi-kk Q&A thread.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] netgear64:
Thank you so much for your reply.

Meanwhile I already tried it and first I installed TWRP 2.5.0.0 and then the Hairybean stuff. Everything went very smooth and I encountered no problems at all.

Now Hairybean 2.3.1 is running on my tablet and it's running pretty good.

Unfortunately GPS doesn't find a fix anymore, even with the extension module.

Is there still any developping, the tablet is kinda old so I wonder how long we will have some improvements coming.

Anyway, right now I'm happy with that ROM, thanks to all who created it.

Cheers

Flumpster has pretty much moved on. If Asus updates the tf300 then it will be the next version of AndroWook. I am going to take a crack at getting f2fs on 2.31 this weekend but other than that there isn't much going on here
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] master1988:
Can you please tell me more about your CPU voltage adjustments? I have the same problem. Thank you in advance...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
Sure. Using trickster mod, I've set interactive/deadline. I've set my "min" CPU frequency to 620000. Under specific, I have upped the lowest frequency voltages to: 620mhz = 850, 475mhz = 825, 1mhz = 800. Working great for me now.

SlimKat weeklies also for TF201!

Hi guys,

My warranty is over now, for last year my Prime had Androwook on board and it was awesome!

The team has made a great job in keeping our TF201's alive and fully operational:good:

Lately, most people here are writing about Crombi-KK & F2PS. Again, the authors made a great job here :fingers-crossed:

Please do not hesitate to upgrde to KK :)

However, Prime users also have SlimKat builds!

All credit goes to [MENTION=5280400]ne0zone75[/MENTION] and this is the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2657847

Personally, I'm running the latest 4.8 weekly with F2PS and GEAS v7 kernel .And guess what?

My Prime is light years ahead of stock rom in every imaginable term :)

I have to be honest with You, not everything is ready, the dock battery indicator is a very time-consuming thing to code...

Guys, but we have functional weeklies ready to flash every monday!

I don't recall our Prme's geting so much dev-love in the past.

This process didn't work for me on 64GB card [SOLVED]

I was on the 10.4.2.15 bootloader (which resulted from the Flatline JB nvflash process) and TWRP 2.6.3.0 from http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/93 using the file openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-tf201-JB.blob.

Then I did these steps from OP:

Download "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip" & "Hairybean 2.31.zip" from the links, copy to Micro SD.

Boot into recovery and flash "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip" from Micro SD card.

-- could not access MicroSD card, so rebooted to Android, and copied that zip to internal SD

Boot into recovery and flash "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip" from internal SD card.

Click restart after completion and on restart LET THE BLUE LINE FILL ALL THE WAY, WHEN IT IS FINISHED IT WILL RESTART ITSELF BACK INTO TWRP OR INTO OS.

If the Tablet does not boot back into TWRP or OS then hold down Power and VOLUME DOWN for 10 seconds until it restarts and the icons appear. Then select RCK manually.

Go into TWRP and Wipe options and select Advanced Wipe. Select Dalvik Cache, System, Cache and Data and swipe to wipe. (Data2SD users also select SD-Ext)

THIS FAILED - because it cannot mount any sd card --> Go to Install options and flash "Hairybean 2.31.zip" from Micro SD card.

Then I found this other thread, and tried to access my SD card with the twrp.blob there in flumpster's post #8 (which is slightly different from the one within "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip". There's a slightly different mount screen, and I don't see the advanced wipe area. Same failure though, I cannot access ext-sdcard.

I have done the nvflash backups, I can get into APX mode, can get into fastboot, can get into TWRP. Just cannot mount internal or external SDcards from within either of these androwook modded TWRP's.

The twrp.blob from the link above is what I have on there now, and it's v2.4.4.0. My bootloader is ostensibly the one from the Upgrade Hairybean zip. Is there a fastboot flashable TWRP somewhere that's the same as the one from "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip"?

EDIT: [SOLVED] I was using a Sandisk Ultra 64GB microSD card, and apparently TWRP (or the JellyBean bootloader?) needs something smaller(?). An old offbrand Class-4 16GB microSD is working fine, and I'll continue on to install HairyBean 2.31 with it. I just restored TWRP 2.5 and checked that I still also have access to internal and external SD cards.

Thanks!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GTIM2L8:
Try using the "Downgrade" bootloader to 4.1 then do a full wipe then use the upgrade zip to install the correct bootloader and recovery then check for SD card visibility.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Arfyness:
I thought about that, and I was about to try it, but then ... how do I flash the downgrade (which is bootloader and twrp) without access to internal SD and external SD from within the TWRP that I have?

I can put the files on the external SD from my laptop, but if I can't read it from the TWRP, then I cannot flash it.

Help! heres the situation. The rom works completely well and i was messing around with recovery and somehow the recovery is all messed up and would not load into proper recovery anymore. it boots into a cwm 6.0...recovery which for some reason isn't able to read anything and just boot loops over and over again. the but i am able to get into fastboot menu and boot up the HB rom that way and the rom works 100% but recovery doesn't work and i can't install another rom over it. It doesn't read any system file, mount anything. sideload..nothing works.. anyone help?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GTIM2L8:
If you can get into fastboot you should be able to install a twrp recovery image with the fastboot command. Are you saying you can't do that?

I have been using this ROM for several months now and can't believe the difference over stock. I do however have an odd problem with the clock in the lower right of the screen. It seems to just stop updating the time and i have to reboot to fix it. Then it works for several weeks then it may happen again. Anyone have a fix for this?

I have gone to bed much later than expected due to this bug...:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Do you have any autokillers running or are you using the processes widget that comes with asus to kill things?

I have only ever seen this once and as you say it goes away if you restart so above is just a pure guess really.

I am able to get into fastboot and flash twrp recovery image but once the file gets sent to the tablet in fastboot mode. the whole tablet just freezes so i have to do a hard reset then its back to cwm 6.0xxx which isn't able to read anything off the tablet...no internal, no external, even sideloading freezes...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] j8dailo:
I am able to reinstall the hairybean but it still doing the same thing...its basically everytime it restarts..it takes you to CMW recovery...a recovery bootloop i guess...i tried pushing new recovery through fastboot or new blob image but tablet just freezes when i try that..any ideas?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Follow the link but where it says to download the tf300 official firmware and extract the blob then get the official tf201 firmware and flash that instead.

This will put you back to a completely stock state and then you will have to flash TWRP again and start from scratch.

Actually I do use the built in Asus task killer from time to time. It may very well be causing the problem. I will try to pay attention to see if the issue corresponds to when I use it. I know task killers are not really required anymore so perhaps its time to stop using it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] j8dailo:
I can boot into fastboot and flash the blob or recovery file but it freezes in fastboot everytime... when i go to rom manager, it saids i have cwm 5.8xx and twrp recovery installed but when i reboot..it always reboot into cwm 6.xx...it seems like there is 3 recovery on the tablet...

ROM manager bricks these devices. Stop using it. You may need buster99's fix. Search for it in the TF300 forums.

f2fs on Androwook

Yesterday I installed the Hunds f2fs kernel found on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2681775. Holy S**t, first time in over 2 years the browser doesn't lag without browser2ram. I did try crombi kk with f2fs for 2 weeks but came back to Androwook because imo aosp ROMs for tf201 are simply not as good as stock based roms. Now we can use f2fs with androwook and it's simply incredible. Better yet I didn't even need to reinstall my apps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Nice one mate. I know a few have been asking for this.

Installing F2FS Kernel on Androwook

Here's what I did to install f2fs kernel on Androwook 2.31:

** Edit: modified kernel on post # 1440
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JuraP:
I'm currently on Crombi-kk f2fs and Grimlock kernel so just out of curiosity : If you do a nandroid backup with regular recovery, doesn't restoring from nandroid backup renew the ext4 partition of the backed up partition?

Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hokypoky:
No, the backup does not save the file system structure. It only contains the files found on the file system.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Great stuff mate and thanks for the guide.

Have you noticed any other significant gains apart from the browser? As you say browser2ram sorts that and the only other really irritating lag I still get is always connected with Play Store operating in the background. It would be great if my tablet became half way usable while software updates were happening :).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hokypoky:
F2FS definitely alleviates any internal storage related lag. On ext4, torrenting or installing apps would have made the tablet unusable. On f2fs, I can browse espn or play minecraft while torrenting and installing apps without too much lag. Switching apps and opening recent apps does still lag when under heavy load but that's probably due to cpu load or memory bandwidth; plus the recent apps lags occasionally even when there's nothing going on lol. Benchmarks are much better also. In antutu, I get a storage io score of 1300 for f2fs and 650 for ext4. In androbench, I get a random write of 0.4 mb/s for f2fs and 0.2 mb/s for ext4.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
You did a great job figuring this out. I've been reading lots of f2fs kernel pages and was going to play with setting up Hairybean as you did, but I'm traveling on business for a couple of more weeks, and I learned the hard way long ago... Don't do major changes when your not home with all the tools to bail yourself out! I can attest to the speed increases with f2fs as Crombi-kk just flies with it. I look forward to getting home and trying it out on HB!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erichung_13:
Hey guys in a bit of a situation.

ROM is running fine and perfectly smooth.. Fresh flash with no backup restore of any kind, followed the method above to get F2FS. I have set up my tablet perfectly with only one issue.. no matter what I do my computer will not recognize my device?

I have tried all 4 usb ports, rebooting both laptop and tablet usb debugging on and off, MTP mode on and off, but still for the life of me can't figure out how to get my prime to recognize. I am reluctant to reflash incase something goes wrong and I would have no usb connection to my laptop :(

EDIT: Also it is not a faulty cable as it charges just fine, both dock and tablet. It also does not appear on device manager
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Ability to charge is no indication that it is fit to transfer data. Try swapping if you can.

Have you tried re-installing the drivers (making sure the old ones are completely deleted)?

Also try gently jiggling the prime end as you plug it in. The socket on mine is definitely a bit flaky.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erichung_13:
Hi there,

I only have the one cable at the moment so it will be a while before I can get a hold of another. I rebooted into recovery and fastboot, picks up the device pefectly in both modes.. its just usb storage which is the issue. I removed the drivers and re-installed the naked drivers for both, I am unable/not sure how to do the same for MTP since the computer will not recognize. Thank you for the input!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] steinarlundemo:
The app is installed, but I have no clue about the CPU-values. Any suggestions?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
May be wrong but I think the Prime needs an Asus driver for MTP. Can't remember where I got it - probably from the Asus site.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erichung_13:
I reluctantly reflashed the ROM again, fastboot adb all working just no USB storage.. so strange. I have a feeling it is F2FS causing the problem?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Strange nobody else has reported it.

Just checked. I must have used the driver from the folder named MTP - file attached.

To rule out drivers completely I would uninstall the Naked ones again and use the Asus ones here for these too.

You might also just check in App info that Media Storage hasn't gotten itself disabled somehow.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erichung_13:
Noob question, but how can I install these drivers if my device is not recognized at all, even in device manager?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
When you say "not recognised at all" you mean you do not see any new sections appear at all in Device Manager when you plug in in the prime?! What version of Windows are you using?

Have the DM window open when you plug in so you can see exactly what is happening. Try this first with USB debugging disabled.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erichung_13:
Windows 7 64bit. I plug in device, nothing changes in DM window. Tried both with usb debugging on and off. I would be able to fix the problem if it detected something but its as if I have plugged in nothing at all :confused: ADB and Fastboot it recognises perfect though.
