The new Hunds kernel works great! Have run it for a day and not one SOD. Thanks Flumpy! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sauliiin:
Flumpster... you lied to me!!! I thought it would take a little longer!! Already??? I am anxious to flash it! Now, I can't wait until the end of the week!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Hi folks,

Well done all for keeping Androwook going looks like you've done well Flumpster and co :)

i'm still on 1.51 and thinking about upgrading to v2.3 now ... am i right in thinking that i can just follow the standard install instructions in post 1? ... what i mean is .. i dont have to perform any other special tasks before running the bootloader upgrade etc ?

I have done the NVFlash previously so i spose i should just jump in feet first lol, but i do like to be sure first
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Yea mate.. Just follow the instructions in post 1 but I would advise using the RC1 files above instead of the OPs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Laurentwb:
Hi,

I installed RC1 but did not notice clear changes versus the original one except flash which now works. However, I don't know if it linked.

By the way, thanks to the authors ! Thanks to you work, the magic of our Primes remains alive.

Thanks for this beauty :victory:

When I select Data2sd the internal memory drops from 27 GB to almost 4 GB is that normal? :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I don't know where you are getting that reading from.. You are not giving me much info.

If you are using Data2SD then what is classed as Internal is going on to the EXT partition on your SD card so the size is limited to what you set that to.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
I think, I got it ... under the Storage we normally see the internal storage and when we use Data2SD, it's the EXT partition size we are seeing instead of. Sorry for my bad English :o
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Yes.. And 4 gig is rather small for the EXT partition.

What size is your sdcard you are using for it and is it a really fast one ? What make and model ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
A Transcend 32 GB and I think 4 class sdcard
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Forget it mate.. That is going to be slower than the internal memory.

Reflash the rom without data2sd.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
What do you recommend for a sdcard for this purpose? :rolleyes:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mightywhites29111971:
Is 2.3.1 worth updating from 2.3? I flashed 2.3 this morning and everything seems fine. Don't want to waste time if it's there's no real difference.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Read the changelog and decide for yourself. I would advise at least dirty flashing the rom.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sbdags:
You need a fast Class 10 UHS-1 card at least.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
Ok ... Thanks

I'm reflashing as you advised. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
I'm not having any problems with sdcards and changes on 2.3.1 are mainly app updates. But I'm having issue with several freezes and the kernel app setting doesn't do anything moreover after the fresh flash I entered the kernel app and it FC'ed. Should I add the 2.3 kernel installer and find there another one? Beside that all works great :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shaz2sxy:
Can I install over 2.2? Or does it have the be fresh?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
2.3 had a faulty Hunds kernel.

There is more fixes in 2.31 than just apps.

Please do a dirty flash of 2.31 and select Hunds in it this time.

The kernel app FC'ing on first launch is a bug Hunds is aware of and it is caused by the app trying to get super user. It will only do it the first time and after that it will open properly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I don't suggest it but a lot of people have dirty flashed over 2.2 and they have been fine.

Try it and if you get any problems then do a clean install.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
OK thank I will dirty flash the new one but what about the kernel the flash will update him too? There is no need to flash that kernel installer zip?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
You are correct. The kernel installer is useful if you just want to flash a different kernel. When you install 2.31rc, you will be presented with kernel choices in it too.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stevenca:
Thanks flumpster for the hard work! My question is not really related to the os itself.....but my tablet has an issue with sound , namely being so dam quiet! I can hardly hear a movie in a quiet room on netflix or when watching videos on the video player....are there any tricks to boost this to be as loud as when i am playing music or playing tunein radio ? Those apps are plenty loud!! but yet netflix and videos u need your ear close to the speaker...makes no sense...any advice from anyone is appreciated!:good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
In 2.31 there is a new dsp manager that you can install. When you have trouble hearing try going into it and enable the equaliser and then turn up all the frequencies from the middle up. Don't boost the low bass sections too much or it will distort.

Have a play with that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stevenca:
It really boosts up the music and radio , but does nothing for netflix.....I am not sure why it does this! Music is plenty loud buy netflix and movies you need your ear to the speaker :(

EDIT :

I found an app that does wonders!!! Its called Volume + paid app ....amazing loudness now on netflix and movies! Thanks flumpster for ur help!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
64 GB is too big for my use ... What about this one ... is this OK? :p

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dasdranamin:
Hi flumpster,

One guy (on 4pda.ru) found a problem on HB2.31 (and most likely in previous releases based on Android 4.2)

When tablet connected to a TV, the TV-monitor received a full copy of tablet's screen together with a progress bar.

(and, of course, the black bars on the sides, as the picture is not 16:9).

And even when you start a video, screen stays in this mode - completely duplicates the tablet screen

(and, of course, no FullHD).

Earlier by clicking on the notification of HDMI you can customize it, but now there is only 3D, and no other options ...

I think the problem comes from the "little brother" TF300.

Possible to fix this bug in the future?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
I've always had issue with the exchange calendar sync and this rom.. Is there anyway to swap the exchange out with the Cyanogen mod version? As that works beautifully!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kayusumi222:
I got bootloop when using Samsung UHS-I 32GB @ HB2.2 with Data2SD

But Samsung class10 32GB works fine on both HB2.2 and 2.3 with Data2SD

The thickness of USH-I is a little smaller than class 10

If I have time I will flash 2.31 on USH-I again

--

Now flash 2.31 on USH-I without bootloop, the stability is under observation

--

How about mxplayer?

I get black on both sides when on desktop, but when I play 1080p movies with mxplayer, I get full screen
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Oualdo:
Hi guys,

With my post #222 i just wanted to know wat to do to go from installed HairyBean vers 2.11 to vers 2.3

Excuse me if it wasn't clear.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dasdranamin:
Sure, but TV doesn't switch on to 1080p mode. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
After flashing 2.3.1 I understand the hunds kernel app removed? Got replaced with the os monitor?

Just cheaking, because change log saying added stuff to the app but I can't find the app
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] podezebi:
Hi !

should i use Hairybean 2.3 (4.2.1) Bootloader for the 2.3.1 RC1 ???

Thanks for the answer !
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
Yes. If you already flashed it to install Hairybean 2.3, then you don't need to flash the bootloader again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kayusumi222:
Oh, sorry that I can not confirm whether or not it is 1080p output, but it looks like:confused:

so 100% in mxplayer is just scale up to full screen? The resolution of this movies is 1920*1080
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
This is not a bug.

The tf300 and tf700 used to behave exactly the same as the prime with hdmi when on 4.1.1.

When they upgraded to 4.2.1 they removed the stretch and skew options.

This is Asus' doing and not much I can do about it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dasdranamin:
We can argue till the evening.

Believe me, it doesn't work as it should.

In order to see how it MUST BE, connect please a Prime with official STOCK firmware.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You follow the instructions in post 1.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
What are people doing to do this? Dirty flashing?

I am pretty sure that the app should be there but I will clean install one more time to check.

If it there now I am ignoring all other posts about missing apps lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dasdranamin:
This is unfortunate. :(

I suspected it, but there was hope for a relatively easy solution.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
Yes I have dirty flashed I don't mind much about not having it anyway just wanted to bring that up. Yesterday had 4 freezes today with 2.3.1 had non yet. Looking great ty androwook team and Mr.flumpstr :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I will only suggest the Sandisk because that one has been proven to work correctly and with one of the best performances on Data2SD.

If 64 is too big then get this one. http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-microSDHC-Ultra-adapter-Mobile/dp/B007JTKLEK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377085712&sr=8-1&keywords=sandisk+32+uhs
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
The odd part is that dirty flashing shouldn't effect that app.

The first thing I do in the kernel part of the installer is delete the old version of Hunds app and then it re-installs the new one.

I will test now with a clean install and then dirty flash just to make sure. Can you tell me if you are using Data2Sd?

Also can you look in data/app folder and tell me if you have any apk in there that starts with hundsbuah.

Edit. I tested a clean install of 2.31 and the app was there. I then dirty flashed 2.31 and it was still there.

But... To make sure I then clean installed 2.3 and app was there. I then dirty flashed 2.31 over 2.3 and the app wasn't there.

Even tho I don't support dirty flashing this should be a simple fix.

I will look into it now and upload you the newest app here soon when I am at PC.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
I'm not using Data2SD and my data folder complitly empty not even an app folder inside. Again I mention I have no issues with the app not showing just wanted to inform about it for future builds or other people responces before its too late.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Are you trying to look in data with es file explorer?

They messed that app up recently and I can have it where it will show me data as being empty.

Try a different one like root explorer or solid explorer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
Root explorer shows the app in the folder yet you can't install from that apk giving no error just saying app not installed
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I think it is being caused by me telling the installer to remove the old apk but not removing its libs etc which are kept elsewhere.

When the new app then gets placed there it tries to use the old apps libs and fails..

I am trying now.

Cheers mate.

Data2SD Performance

Is a http://www.dataio.nl/shop/203-micro-sd-kaarten/207-micro-sdxc-uhs-i-snelst/1360-64-gb-extreme-microsdxc-card-class-10-80mbs-sandisk.html speedwise faster than the internal ram in a Prime?

I have never used Data2SD on my Prime but if the MicroSD card is quicker than the internal 32GB ram then the cost of the MicroSD card is well worth it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I have shown twice over the last couple of pages which card to get for data2sd.

Extreme cards don't work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rveupen:
Non extreme then

Ok...so the ones you linked are quicker speed wise than the internal ram then?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Yes mate.

They are the same cards I linked. Just one is 32gb and one is 64gb.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rveupen:
Ty.

Ment to link this one for the people who live in the Netherlands like me:

http://www.dataio.nl/shop/203-micro-sd-kaarten/207-micro-sdxc-uhs-i-snelst/1235-64-gb-mobile-ultra-microsdxc-card-class-10-30mbs-sandisk.html
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
That is the exact same card as I have and what all the team has.

Do not use minitool to partition it. Use gparted.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
If you would like to PM me I will send you some files to test.

I do not use exchange so I have no way to try it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Fixed exchange for the guy above. Used the Exchange APK from CM 10.1 instead.

Fixed the Hunds App not installing on a dirty flash from 2.3. It was caused by Hunds compiling the app on different machines with diff keys and would not let it install.

New version now included that is signed with the same key as 2.3 app. It might also fix the su bug on first launch.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
Another thing I just noticed is that I had twrp wooki theme with v2.0 then changing to 2.3 it disappeared. Have anyone else had it? Again don't get me wrong not complaining having the theme won't fix my life just wanna make sure you guys find all issues early now so no one will bug you later on :)

I'm almost sure it was on after I flashed the bootloader and disappeared on the ROM flashing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
That theme is installed with the rom, the kernel installer and the bootloader upgrade.

Look in sdcard/TWRP/theme.

Do you have a ui.zip there?

One other thing.. Did you upgrade your bootloader because the theme will only work with TWRP 2.6?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
I have only used the boot loader file you gave on main thread. Doesn't that updates the twrp?

And I do have the ui file in the twrp folder. In case my twrp isn't 2.6 can I just update via goo manager and it won't harm the ROM?

And then flash the ui?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
woahhh.. never use goo manager.

Go into TWRP and look up the top at what version number it is.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
So weird it was wookie themed with 2.0 then flashed 2.3 it went to default theme now after 2.3.1 its back to wookie.

Sorry for not rechecking earlier prior to posting its all good now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Argghghghghh........
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cortical:
Hello everybody, and a special hello to the dev, whose work is incredible!

I've been one of the silent readers of your previous thread for nearly half a year now, and have not yet flashed because I was a) still a little bit unsure about it and b) did not want to void my warranty just yet. Now, that I am closing in on the magical two-year-line, I'm just hoping that my tablet is unlockable, because until now it was pretty much free of hardware mistakes. Never hav any problems with wifi etc.

I'm asking here because I did not find a dedicated "AndroWook" Q&A thread, so I hope you don't mind. I intend to unlock my Prime this evening and prepare it accordingly with TWRP, then follow your install instructions of 2.31. Yet, I wanted to ask whether the battery life is severely different to stock, because - as a student - I pretty much needed throughout the day, and the stock can do that. I don't want to miss out on the features of this ROM and especially 4.2 of which I've been reading, so I'll definitely try it, but that's one of my major concerns so far :)

As I said before, I really hope you don't mind and that somebody feels able to reply :)

Best!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
There has been a draining bug on 4.2.1 on both the prime and tf300 which only happens if left on the dock.

It is funny you have just asked this because we was just talking about it in team chat.

I am not sure if the new stock kernel from asus fixed it as I use Hunds kernel which is based off the previous release.

I intend to take my dock off the power supply tonight when both the dock and tablet are on 100 percent and test it with Hunds kernel. I have already tested it without the dock and it lost 4 percent in 10 hours.

If Hunds kernel is still draining with the dock attached then tomorrow night I will test it with the new stock kernel that is also included in the installer.

If that does fix the drain then we will have to wait for the kernel source code to be released so Hunds can base his kernel off that. If stock kernel does not fix it then it is still an Asus problem with 4.2.1.

I will let you know how the testing goes but official Hairybean 2.31 should be released on Friday if you want to wait until then. It is just a release candidate at the moment.

EDIT. I just noticed that the source code is actually released for the newer kernel so let me do my testing first and see how we go from there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
I recall hearing (maybe in the cromi thread) that it's fixed in the newest stock rom (and probably therefore the kernel) . Am I just making this up?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I won't know until I have run both tests myself.

If it is fixed in the new kernel then I will have to have a word with Hunds about upgrading his. He will not be a happy man tho ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Laurentwb:
Little detail on v2.31 : the wifi icone always remains grey. however, the connection is woring fine.

I've been on 2.3 just before but don't really remembr if the issue was already there or not.

Laurent
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Wifi icon is fine on mine and all testers.

Did you dirty flash at any point?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Laurentwb:
Yes, I did to upgrade from 2.3 to 2.31.

Funny to say that universal frustation won again. After hours with this grey icon, I decided to report. As soon as I did, the icon turned blue. Kind of magic ...

In fact, there has always been a lot of magic with this tablet.

:cool:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shaz2sxy:
Did a dirty Install over 2.2 and working fine :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] philow:
I have seen this happen as well. I might be downloading updates from the play store and the WiFi icon is gray...It will eventually turn blue but it is not alway accurate. I am on 2.3 with the hunts from the v4 kernel installer and it was a clean install. It has just seemed to be slow at turning blue. I chalked it up to me using multiple user profiles cause that cause strange things anyway :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beady_uk:
I have a feature request for the 2.31 release- only if possible without much work..

When an SD/ micro SD/USB is plugged in it shows in the notification area with the options open and unmount. Can you make the option to open request which app to use because on stock it opens the asus file manager. I use ES file manager so i have removed the Asus app from /system hoping it would ask what to use but now it does nothing.

If this is possible it would be handy but if not its not a problem. I dont want anyone spending months on this, a few weeks will be enough :eek:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SimoneSessa:
I recently unlocked my device.

I would flash this rom, it seems good.

When will there be a new version? It will be based on Android 4.3? Thank you.

I do not know if someone has already requested or already have it said, in that case, sorry.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tower_gilead:
Read post #1. This rom is days old. You would like a newer one? No 4.3 as far as I know, but you could inquire with Asus on that one.

:rolleyes:

Sent while sleeping in chair.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kayusumi222:
I have this situation on 2.3, normally it's due to the reboot by Quick boot

The WiFi icon turns to grey and can not access to internet

After several reboot with built-in reboot function it turns to blue
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
When you say quick boot are you talking about a separate app that restarts the prime instantly?

If you are using hunds kernel I would strongly advise against using these. Fsync is disabled and if you use these apps before it has finished flushing its data to disk then you can corrupt the whole OS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stevenca:
GOOD to know , i HAVE been using an app called quick reboot from the playstore to reboot or jump into recovery when I want to....better delete that off as i am using the hunds kernel!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
If you want a quick reboot then use the hotboot option in the advanced power menu. If you want to go to recovery or shut down then let android do its thing properly. There is a reason android takes them extra few seconds to shut down, they didn't just add delay for the sake of it. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joshkun:
Clean installing

I made a clean instal with the stock krenel (no data2sd) and evry thing was working fine after installing my apps from google backup rebooted and installed custom kernel (no data2sd) and after rebooting my tf was very slow and laggey.

Rebooted repeat the same this time with out installing my apps this time it was working fine but I think the axis was wrong cause when I pressed right the app from left opened and conversely. Rebooted and reflashed the custom kernel this time with reverse axis but it did effect nothing and every thing still worked conversely.

Rebooted clean flashed the rom with custom kernel (Hundsbuah Kernel no data2sd) directly now evrey think works just fine.

I thought I should share this with you maybe will help.

PS: when you start Hunds app for first time it gives an error and FC, but next time it works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] meldrak:
Hi flumpster

great rom here and working fine for me, time to leave my stock 4.1 :D

why don't you remove DMClient, CMClient and UpdateLauncher apks, they are useless in custom rom
