Hello,

I'm actually on HB2.2 and would like to upgrade to 2.31 but the download for Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip and Hairybean 2.31.zip on the 1st page seems to be down any chance someone can re-upload them please ?

Thanks in advance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Thomasba:
They're back up now I've just downloaded both
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lestou:
You are right, download in running as i speak :)

Hi, I installed v2.31 with data2sd and I see that "internalSD" is pointing to the original internal data storage. When I connect the tf201 to a Windows 7 box, it shows the two partitions of the External SD Card (fat32 and ext4 partitions). Is there anyway to get it to also show the "internalSD"? I know from the TF700 thread, they have a solution for this. This way, I can just copy movies, music, and or other media straight.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Look on your fat32 partition after a minute of being turned on. The InternalSD should be linked in there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] r0ark:
Thank you Flumpster! It is there! I thought I had to mount it manually in a script (saw your older post for this) but you guys are already one step ahead!

I have to say, after trying out other ROMs, that AndroWook is the most awsome in many level and that being the ROM working fast, added features are complete and well thought out, and best of all, quick reply from ROM devs!

You guys have made the piece of junk Asus TF201 a usable tablet!

Donation coming!

Thank you!

Hello Flumpster m8, long time :)

Been tweaking my prime and it's working great now, but i just needed to pick your brains again m8.

I seem to remember having the ability to have a static wallpaper (non scrolling) but can't seem to do it no more? Maybe i'm remembering that wrong.

Any ideas if theres a way to accomplish that m8?

Cheers and love the new rom by the way. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Finally got around to getting unlocked and flashed with this great ROM.

For anyone coming straight from running the Flatline NVFlash, beware that the version of CWM they use does not recognise the external sd card. (or at least it did not see mine). It was the only card I had to hand and it took me hours of experimenting and reformatting, blaming cheap Chinese manufacturing before I realised it was the fault of the custom recovery:D. I installed the latest TWRP and after that HairyBean installation was a breeze.

Big thanks again to flumpster and his team for their great work here :good:.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Thank you very much r0ark and Restorer for the donations. Cheers lads :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Most third party launchers can do it (go, nova, etc)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dlads:
Yea I was trying to avoid using another launcher, but i've used Apex many times, might give it a whirl.

Cheers m8, hope youre well :)

Edit: honestly, ive missed apex, id forgotten that i bought the pro version. Completely different tablet with apex, 0% slowdown or lag, its rapid, even with scrollable wallpapers.

What If?

So I'm on TWRP 2.63, JB Bootloader, Rooted Stock Rom...arrived here using Urkel's Fresh Start and subsequently updated to TWRP 2.63 JB

If I flash the 2.31 Bootloader zip, and the 2.31 Rom zip... would I be able to revert to the nandroid backup of the stock rom that I am running now simply by restoring that backup from your custom recovery, or would I need to downgrade bootloader and then flash?

I feel like based on indications in OP I would need to downgrade to the 4.1.1 bootloader. I am currently on the 10.4.2.18 JB bootloader, is that the same as the 4.1.1 bootloader commonly referenced on TF201 threads.

It goes without saying that we owe much gratitude to all the devs on the Prime scene, including and especially the AndroWook team.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You should be able to restore your 4.1.1 stock rom to the newer bootloader but I cannot guarantee it.

I know that Hairybean 1.51 which was based off 4.1.1 works on it so it should.

If it doesn't work you would just have to run the downgrade zip which would take you back to that bootloader and it will definitely work.

Just make sure that you save your backup on the microsd as the internal space it going to get wiped on the bootloader upgrade and do not install any versions of TWRP afterwards made for the Prime, they are not compatible.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Prack:
Hey guys,

I'm late to the party. I just setup nvflash and made my backups but wanted to try this ROM. By changing recoveries am I no longer able to use my nvflash backup? I really want to install this rom but don't want to undo everything I did and defeat the purpose of the nvflash. I've seen on the nvflash thread that hairy bean is not compatible with nvflash.

Thank you in advance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
After trying androwook, you won't want to go back to stock :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] army78:
One more question...I have tried to read up on nvflash, and it seems like if I am already unlocked and previously upgraded to JB prior to unlocking and rooting that I am not able to create nvflash files. Will someone please confirm that I have this straight? Or is it still possible to create the nvflash files using the stock 4.1.1 rom on an unlocked, rooted Prime with a custom recovery (TWRP 2.63)???

Launcher in memory

Hi all,

Love this ROM. Also like using Next Launcher with it (I like some eye candy !).

Generally next is pretty smooth but can cause some lag on redrawing with a few apps open and then returning to launcher.

I tried add

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

but when I did the tablet refused to boot, just sat at the ASUS screen saying 'tablet is unlocked' in the top left hand cormer.

A dirty flash of 2.31 got it all back, presumably as that overwrote the build.prop but I wondered if I did something wrong or if there is something else I can do.

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
If you was stuck on the asus logo and only changed the build prop then my guess would be that you edited it on the pc for example and then copied it in there without setting the correct permissions.

Build.prop with wrong permissions will cause android not to boot.

nvflash on hairybean 2.31

So if I went ahead and flashed hb 2.31, at this point I would use the tf300 nvflash files? Or I could use the downgrade .zip and then I would be using the tf200 files? Correct?

Great Rom, great support...

Hi..

i am planning to use data2SD supported kernel...does it help to make prime smoother....also i have 32 gb card...how much do i do partition space....totally new for these stuffs. any help is appreciated. thanks

update: i am going for 8gb ext4 and rest FAT32 or is it NTTS ???

update1: so i did 8gb ext4 and rest NTTS....downloaded kernel installer. and flashed then selected hashkernel with data2sd but when i rebooted it says "Encryption unsuccessful". any help ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coempi:
You would probably need a bigger card. 2 partitions are needed: X GB Fat 32, the rest (4-8 GB) EXT. Both partitions must be primary.

Best regards, Coempi
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HiM@L:
i have 32 gb isnt that enough ???
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coempi:
I'm not saying it's not enough. I don't use data2sd, but others here use 64GB cards.

Best regards, Coempi

I have no fastboot option in the shutdown menu or the usb logo when holding volume down while pressing power, am I being dense or am I missing the fastboot option?

When I flashed the upgrade bootloader .zip everything worked as described and I've had no issues with installing the HB 2.31 rom, flashing the kernal software or backing up the HB 2.31 rom??? Not sure what the deal is?

I now have my nvflash files...in triplicate.

So awesome bruh/mate!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Glad you got it all sorted.

Thank you very much for the donation also mate. :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rege0039:
Flumpster, as ever, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

I edited build.prop on the tablet itself but will check the permissions now before I, possibly, have a go again.

Thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kornball:
Finally loaded this onto my prime last weekend. Loving it so far! Thanks for all the hard work, flumpster!!

To those who are currently using Data2SD: is there a noticeable increase in performance, or is it a personal preference sort of thing?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chris13640:
Hi, i'v just installed data2sd with an sdxc card (64 gb) formated in ext4 : just awfull!! :(

Apps crash + lag. In my opinion, just forget it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
To be honest, even tho I don't use data2sd myself it sounds like you have either formatted the card wrong or you just have a real crappy card.

I still test data2sd when I make the roms and most of the testers use it daily and we encounter no problems with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Thank you for the donation kornball. Much appreciated mate. :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chris13640:
You right flumpster, that's what i said "in my opinion". I followed instructions IE : fat32 + ext4 both primary but maybe my problem is due to the card type ( sdxc )... In fact your rom works very well without data2sd and I think it's better not to use it.

Best regards
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I wasn't having a go by the way. Was just explaining what I thought your problem could be.

You need a certain sdcard to get the best of data2sd and that is why I always suggest the sandisk ultra cards as they are proven to work.

The other problem people can have is not using gparted to set it up. People have been known to use minitool etc and even tho it will work they have the crashing problems etc that you describe. I also never had any problems using minitool so there are just so many variables.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BlackDave:
I've had my fair share of problems with Data2SD. I was using this card and although it did improve the speed on the tablet, it wasn't by much as the write speed were random (from 4.4mb/s to 8mb/s). Then I had an issue with the kernel installer file, which deleted my files and I was upset so I switched to the PAC Rom for a bit and Data2SD on that ROM did improve a bit but I didn't like the UI in the rom and changing it through the settings caused so many issues.

Eventually I got this card and the write speeds were amazing (they were actually over 10mb/s). The only thing is PAC was giving me **** everytime I tried reinstalling the rom using the newly correctly formatted card. So I switched back to Androwook 2.31 and it has been smoother than ever using Data2SD. I can't believe how much it has improved by switching to a faster card. I always end up coming back to this rom since it's the best for this tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
We got to the bottom of the problem with the kernel installer and Hunds data2sd.

It hadn't wiped your files, there was just a permission missing stopping data2sd running so it wasn't showing you the correct data partition. All your info would have still been there and if you had reflashed the stock kernel with data2sd again which you came from all your data would have come back.

It is fixed in the kernel installer now anyway ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BlackDave:
I got over that, all my pics were uploaded to dropbox and the other files I lost were all the games installation files (about 1gb/games) which is a pain to download but i'm all good again. Thanks for fixing the installer :D

Dock Battery Drain

Is anyone else having issues with the dock's battery draining significantly when idle? I'll fully charge my dock and TP and leave it sitting around for less than 10 hours and the dock battery will be entirely drained? Not trying to be ungrateful just checking if there is something that I can do to prevent this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
What kernel are you using ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] army78:
Hunds 3.3.7....the one with the Rom file, not the data2sd version
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Try it with the stock kernel and see if it is still doing it.

There has been a drain bug with dock for ages and that applied to the stock Asus rom also but a lot of it got fixed in the newest release.

We also brought most of the changes over from the newest kernel also.

If it is still doing it on the stock kernel then either Asus still has the bug or you have an app keeping the machine awake.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] army78:
Battery monitor shows that the Wi-Fi is using 75 percent of the battery, so I activated the disconnect network when sleeping option in settings and will see if that helps, if not will flash stock kernel and see if that does it...thanks for the help
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rege0039:
Out of curiosity, did you use the first card with AndroWook 2.31 as welll and then use the 2nd card with it ?

I.e. was it a full test of both cards with the same ROM ? Or did you just use the 1st card (SanDisk) with the PAC ROM and the 2nd (Sony) card with AndroWook ?

As I lost my microSD and need to get another one I wanted to know if there was a real world improvement with the Sony Card on this ROM.

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rprussell:
I was just noticing this yesterday!

Also using Hunds Data2SD kernel.

I'll check into the wifi disable thing...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] army78:
I continued having the drain issue on the hunds kernel after changing the Wi-Fi disconnect policy. I flashed back to the stock kernel and the drain has improved significantly based on my overnight observation. Willing to help troubleshoot in a more precise manner...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Prack:
Great ROM, haven't had any issues so far.

This might be a noob question but is there a way to enable link2sd or app2sd on a prime? I use it as my gaming tablet and a lot of these games are 1-2gb each. I can easily fill my prime. I have a 64gb card but link2sd does not work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] handtector:
I also had the similar problem and posted in this thread with no direct answer. What I found is that the weather widget keeps pinging using the GPS which drains all the battery (at least in my case), after I turned off GPS, it's all good now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] army78:
I don't use weather widget, and have GPS disabled so that is not the solution in this instance.

I flashed to stock, charged fully and cold booted, I'm going on four hours of idle and have zero drain so far...not sure but it seems like that might suggest a general issue with the hunds kernel.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You have to also know that the drain bug doesn't kick in until 70 percent.

Try and take the tablet down to under 70 and the dock and try it then.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Prack:
Anyone have any advice for this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Most people use data2sd for this. They would set up the 64 gig card with about 4 gig Fat32 (the external sd) and then 60 gig EXT4 (where the data partition is going to go which also includes your Internal SD.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Also, if you reboot while on the dock, in my experience it doesn't drain.

For the Wi-Fi, I found that the system inconsistently disconnects when sleeping and I get huge drain so I just made a tasker policy to kill Wi-Fi on screen off...saves me a lot of battery!

Hi!

I need a quick help form you guys....I was using the the Androwook Wallpaper for both lockscreen and home screens and I downloaded another wallpaper and only used it to change the lockscreen image...but now I want to revert this and use the Androwook wallpaper on my lockscreen again but I can´t find this image anywhere! How can I apply the default wallpaper to my lockscreen??

Tks! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Settings - Display - Lock Screen, Select wallpaper on the popup screen and then scroll over to the HairyBean one and select it.

If it is playing up and not applying it then try restarting the tablet and trying it again.

I don't know if this is normal or not, I usually play movies at home a located in a NAS, via wifi, I convert all the videos to mp4 x264 with 1000kbp/s bitrate , I use mx video player, usually without any issue.

What I've seen from different forums here is that with the prime 201 Bluetooth & Wi-Fi doesn't like each other, so when you're on WiFi and you switch on Bluetooth WiFi speed decreases significantly.

Should be truth because it happens to me...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gtavo:
I thought about that, it's a pity that the can't work at 100% at the same time..., I should copy the files to the tablet before playing...

A quick tip for you if you are transferring files to the internal memory. I find airdroid transfers them far quicker than trying to use Cifs or SMB sharing like what is in ES File Explorer.

Guys,

Do i need to use TWRP for this ROM?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] riven67:
Need Help!

I'm sure your used to reading cries for help from the masses. lol

Flumpster I could use a bit of advice, let me give you the background before I get to the issue. I was running PA 399 RC2 and finished going through NVflash with no issues the other night so I have all my backups nice and safe in case I need them. I used your downgrade Hairybean 4.1.1 bootloader and recovery zip to get me back to TWRP, that all seemed to go fine, no lockups or anything odd. So today I go into recovery to make a backup of my current rom before loading up HB2.31 and it Backed up System, generated and created md5 started backing up Data and there it sits doing nothing as far as I can tell for over 45 minutes, so I guess my question is do I leave it go for hours or try rebooting? :confused:

Can you think of any reason for this lockup? Has anyone else had this issue after NvFlash and using the downgrade zip? Any help or thoughts would be appreciated, although it sure does feel nice to now I can recover using NvFlash if I messed anything up!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I can't see it being a bootloader issue.

Are you backing up to an external sdcard? Maybe it is full or corrupted?

Also I have no idea what you have set to backup and how much you actualy had to backup. I never use md5 check either coz that takes bloody ages (but it is safer).

It should be fine if you hard reset the tablet. It is not writing anything important except a backup so it should all come back on as normal.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] riven67:
Thanks Flumpster I did just as you said and it still works though it seems sluggish. I had to run before and could not answer right away.

I was backing up the default System, Data, Boot. It was to an external SD-card and I did have it making md5's. I just tried with md5 disabled and writing to the internal SD-card, and it went through just fine. I hope it was just a fluke, I just got this SDcard about a month ago maybe I need to reformat it cause I was getting drive full messages last week and I deleted a bunch of stuff so it went away. Well I am going to work on it and if I find anything interesting I will post about it. Thanks again!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
When you say the card was saying it was full and you had to delete stuff did you think it should be full because that is how a fake card behaves.

They sell them as 32 or 64 gig for example when they are actually 16 gig etc and you don't know until you have gone over the proper amount.

It will also show you in windows that it is a 32 or 64 and it will be lies.

Format the card on pc and if you have a 64 gig card try to put 64 gig of films on there and see if they all go on and work. If they don't it is a fake.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] muskt:
I Did It !!

I took the plunge & it worked flawlessly.

I read the first 10 pages of this thread before sleep overtook me last evening. Got up this morning & started.

I flashed the stock KERNAL, and had ZERO glitches.

I'll be 65 in a couple of months, but I can follow instructions (commercial pilot). If you can follow instructions, you should be able to do this, also.

BTW, I really like how the Prime runs, now.

Thanks Flumpster

Hmm it is a 32gig sd-card that I bought from Microcenter, it is branded for them so could be a cheap China knockoff. I will have to test that out, I had not thought about it because it was purchased from the store not online so I thought I was safe from that sort of scam. Well if it is I will let you know. I got everything working again thanks for the advice. I am currently testing out the Pac rom release because it is 4.3 and have found with my Nexus 7 4.3 seems to be a better more stable OS but I plan to install Hairybean 2.31 later this week. I know you were waiting for an official release from Asus before jumping into 4.3 but it is beginning to look more and more like that is not going to happen, any thoughts about a possible 4.3 version of HB? :confused:
