Thanks, TWRP is making a Nandroid after I deleted some files from the mSD card. After that I am going to try to find the file manager option. I never saw it until now, most probably because I did not need it :)

Update : File manager was working fine, thanks again

Some files were still available and some were not, not a clean slate new upgrade, but still taking quite some time. Still wondering why I got in a bootloop after so long.

Any luck with the battery drain issue after disabling the Play Store notifications/Auto Update settings?
[Asus Transformer TF700] rivera151:
Sadly no. The wakeups were still ocurring, with corresponding battery drain.

The package responsible for the wakes was com.android.google.gms which goes by the name of "Google Play Services". I disabled the package. I was expecting all hell to break loose, but even though I read many apps (like YouTube) wouldn't work, I've had no issues streaming videos from the YouTube app, or any other problems. Also interesting, removing this app causes the wifi icon to NOT turn blue upon connection, but the internet connection is fully functional.

After disabling Google Play Services, I stopped getting those wakeups in my logcat, but I was also getting wakeups from Facebook, so that's gone too, and of course, the com.katana.facebook wakelocks went away with it. After getting rid of those two, the writes to logcat for wakeups dropped substantially. I left the laptop overnight and to my surprise, I'm still getting drained overnight.

This morning I uninstalled Maps. Still, got back home this afternoon to find the drain is still there. I looked at the logcat and found that Hangouts/Talk was sending some wakeups too.... it's gone. I'm currently testing this setup to see what it does for wakeups and hopefully for overnight drainage.

The short answer: no luck yet, I'm still testing stuff out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I know it would be a real PIA, but I'm curious if you would still get the battery drain with a completely fresh installation without installing or configuring any apps or settings. Might be a way to help diagnose the issue and get a "baseline".

[MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION] or [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] (or anyone else) - did either of you have a chance to look at their posted logcat to see if you gys can see anything?

Guys, I am interested in solving this myself and cudos to you for trying to find a solution. But I think it warrants and would be better served in it's own thread.

Since it's not related to this rom I feel it's clogging up sbdags thread. [MENTION=972963]jtrosky[/MENTION]: care to open one on the topic?
[Asus Transformer TF700] rivera151:
Please hold of until tomorrow if we are doing this, cause I think I may have found the culprit. TBH I poat here because since the issue happens with stock, I figured it may be kernel related. Let's see what I have tomorrow before diverging.

In the OP for 5.0.3 he said it was loud and he wasn't kidding I can't put the volume over 30% now before i had to have it about 55-60% sometimes higher.

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------

sbdags there is an update for noozxoidelabs on the playstore but it won't install because the signatures don't match. If I uninstall the one in 5.0.3 and install the updated version will that break anything in regards to the X-Loud and ClearAudio etc?

[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
I know I have read on this thread or one of the other CROMIX threads where other member posted about this same is, did a search but could not find anything. The Youtube app 5.0.2.1, everytime I try to play a video or select one of the catagories on the left side all I get is "error occured". Can anyone tell me the solution or point to somewhere that as the fix?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes I modded it to stop updates. The one off the store breaks the loudness.

[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
In all fairness, I would guesstimate that about 70% of the posts in this thread are not really specific to this ROM.

Personally, I don't see the problem with posting about this issue here - this problem does seem to affect a lot of people (if not most) that use this ROM, even if it's not specific to it. To be honest, this is the only thread that I regularly visit, simply because a) I run this ROM, b) I've gotten to know the folks here and c) they are all good people that are very knowledgeable.

I've always thought of this thread as a thread to discuss issues that folks are having while running this ROM - not necessarily a thread where you can *only* discuss issues that are specifically caused by this ROM (if that were the case, this thread will be virtually non-existent, since this ROM is damn near perfect!). :)

That being said, if [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] requests that we move the discussion, then I would most certainly do that.

Also, since we still don't know what's causing this issue, are we even 100% sure that it's not related to this ROM - or caused by a combination of apps/settings that this ROM offers (not not necessarily "caused" by the ROM iteslf)? That's a serious question - since I don't have the issue, I really don't know.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rivera151:
Well, no need for any of _that (pun intended). I found my drainer. After removing it, I'm back to an overnight drain of 3%. The culprit? Drumroll please.............

Google Talk / Hangouts

If this helps anyone with drain issues, do share your experience. I removed a lot of stuff trying to find this problem, so I will have to add these things back incrementally (Hangouts being the last one to make sure it's the app and not a ****ty/corrupted install) and make sure the other things weren't also contributing. Thanks to everyone, especially jtrosky and sbdags for helping me with debugging this sumnabitch.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Was this the version included in the ROM or the one installed from the playstore?
[Asus Transformer TF700] rivera151:
TBH I can't say for sure, because I can't remember if the AROMA installer asks me for Hangouts or Voice (I sometimes mentally confuse these). One thing is for sure, I did have Hangout installed (duh!) but I don't have Voice installed, thus it must be the one from your ROM. I must add that I do update Hangouts (or any other app) whenever an update is available from the Play Store.

Food for thought: maybe it is related to the build (WW vs US vs ET). IIRC you base this off a WW build, but I'm installing a US build. I really have no scientific basis for this speculation, but you probably could shed some light on this.

Thanks for the help, again. Much appreciated.

Yesterday I drained the tablet and dock completely and charged it full.

This morning I docked the tablet in standby and 100% full.

Now after today's use during 13,5 hrs it was on for about 5 hrs and the rest in standby docked and now I am down to 71% tablet and 41% dock.

So not a real proof that it doesn't drain.

I use the tablet for my work very often so I can't leave it docked unused for 1 or 2 days.

So is there already more known about the drain issue?

[Asus Transformer TF700] schmeggy929:
It is an option when you flash the ROM. Its not in the kernel. Reflash the ROM without wiping. There was 3 options in one part of the ROM installer, nothing, DSP Manager and X Loud.

Sbdags - is your kernel still good to go with 5.0 or do you recommend going to Thats kernel instead? Ive been trying to follow the posts, but want clear on this as most of your posts talk about thats kernel. I am running your kernel and 4.7 now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hundsbuah:
no stock :p
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
All 3 are compatible. :) So if you want basic stock features use mine as it is based off the latest Asus Stock kernel. That's extends it a bit with fsync control and under-volting and external cd/dvd player support, and hunds takes it to the next level. Those 2 are still based off the older 10.6.1.14.8 kernel source.
[Asus Transformer TF700] slybarman:
Cool. Thank you for all your efforts.

The only advantage of 10.6.1.14.10 is that Motochopper no longer works.

CHANGELOG for 2.6.1.0:

-Initial SELinux support (only a few devices, need testers so come by IRC if your device doesn't have it and needs it)

-Initial support for f2fs file system formatting (Moto X)

-Update SuperSU install for 4.3 ROMs

-Fixed a permissions bug on files created during backup

-Fixed a bug that caused TWRP to not wait for compressed backups to finish causing 0 byte files and md5sums to not match

-Fixed decryption of encrypted data so that both TouchWiz and AOSP decryption are possible

-Ignore lost+found folder during backup and size calculations

-Various other minor bug fixes and tweaks
[Asus Transformer TF700] toolmanz:
All,

For those interested I have found a better (I think) way to restore apps after a full wipe and install.

I stumbled across "Nandroid Manager" which allows you to restore apps with their data, WIFI access points and passwords etc from your last TWRP nandroid backup.

I just do a nandroid backup right before wiping and installing and then use this app to access the backup files - restore and I am back up and running right away. Works every time. No observed problems.:D

Thought I would share.

Maybe I'm just Stoopid but I can't figure out how to get the crazy volume increase. I reflashed 5.03 just to be sure XLoud was installed. I can't find any way to set it up or control it. There is an app called Noozxocide which I ran but none of the settings changed my volume at all. In the OP they mentioned XLoud and ClearAudio as being the source of the volume increase but I can find neither an XLoud or ClearAudio app.

Am I just missing something really simple? I looked in the Criminal 5.03 zip file and found a directory with Xloud.apk in it and there was another apk for an audio service that I'm not sure installed, if it was supposed to.

Like I said, Maybe I'm just Stoopid. ;)

Am on v4.7 and since I have been having random reboots when web browsing and still some lag in general use I wanted to test out the data2sd as well as the cache2sd features by upgrading to v5.0.3. However, just a few questions before I flash:

(a) For the data2sd feature, I know I will need a compatible kernel (was thinking of Hund Kernel). But do I still need to follow all the instructions in the data2sd thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1962507&page=189)? Also I noticed they recommend Class10 but I only have a Class 6 micro sd card, will this still work or just be slower? If I was buying a new micro sd card, should I buy the fastest one available or will the performance be negligence to a Class 10 card?

(b) For the cache2sd feature, do I need to follow the instructions in the cache2sd thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2258050) or will it run automatically? Can I still configure it?

(c) I basically understand how data2sd and cache2sd works. Do I still need to run lagfix? How often should I run lagfix

(d) Browser2Ram - I noticed UC brower and boat browser are no longer mentioned? I think they were in the v4.7 I am using. Can you add them back in the next version of the rom?

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] NasTraDooMis:
Welp, its game over for me tablet already ! :crying:

I just plugged in the power cord and the screen flashed and when black, Now me tablet will not power back on. THere is an orange power light on by the power button though that is now green indicating thats its charged. THis sux :(

Holding in power button does nothing. Wont boot or power up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Wow so many questions! :D

You need to partition your card correctly using that thread but the ROM includes the necessary files and kernels once that is done.

Your card is too slow though. You need a class 10 uhs-1Card preferably by sandisk.

Cache2sd and data2sd should not be run together. Run one or the other as data2sd is already using the SD. Cache2sd is preconfigured. You can configure it further. It is very experimental. Some apps will stop working.

The b2r script is the same one from 4.7. Don't know where you read that some browsers were removed.

Depending upon how frequently you delete and install apps lagfix can be run once a month or once a week.

Sorry I thought I was in the TF300 thread. Try Hunds kernel as it includes its own app for tweaking performance. Also make sure you have fsync disabled.

Stock performance is not good enough for some games.
[Asus Transformer TF700] blion:
Thanks sbdags!

Looks like i will need to shop for a new card. As for cache2sd and data2sd, if cache2sd is preconfigured but I want to run data2sd instead, how do I get rid of cache2sd? From a performance perspective on general usage level which one is going to be better?

As for b2r, I just noticed that under features it only lists (Default Browser, Firefox, Naked Browser and Chrome version) but I am pretty sure in previous changelogs it said that UC and boat were also included so I had assumed they were removed. But if they are already there then thats great!

Updating to v5.0.3 - Question About Kernels

Hi sbdags,

Like blion, my TF700 has been a bit laggy, despite running LagFix intermittently, so I thought I'd reflash to v.5.0.3 but I also want to try _that's v5 kernel with the increased performance options. I've downloaded the kernel installer .zip & done some reading but as flashing v4.7 was my first venture into unlocking/rooting, I'm not sure how or when I should be flashing the kernel?

Obviously, I'll be following the procedure for flashing v5.0.3 in terms of the Nandroid Backup before I flash v5.0.3 but can I flash the new kernel from TWRP in the same way that I flash CROMi-X or is there another procedure?

I did consider just doing it but as my TF700 has been great since the first installation of CHROMi-X, I didn't want to screw it up for the sake of not asking.

EDIT: I've just realised that I have another question. When I flash v5.0.3, what will happen to things, such as music/films/software that I've got stored on my TF700's internal memory; I am correct in thinking that all that stuff will be ok because I'm flashing the ROM which won't affect the internal storage, aren't I? I didn't need to worry about that on my first install because I did it straight out of the box, so I didn't ask!

Sorry if I'm missing the obvious but I am still a relative noob :o

I already made a flashable zip so users can flash it.

No need to worry and you don't need to use the separate kernel installer. Everything is built in. Just flash and go ;) You can choose the kernel during the main installation options.

Unfortunately, I don't have Talk/Hangouts installed and I still get the battery drain. What's so annoying is that I can leave the tablet for a couple of days sometimes and it's fine, and then the drain kicks in, so it makes it very difficult to know if I've fixed it or not.

Based on another suggestion, I've just drained the dock and tablet completely, left them for 48 hours and then recharged. Now to wait and see if the drain resurfaces.

This is good to know. I installed the ET version and _that v5 OC. Maybe you could put this info into Aroma or make Hund's kernel the only option if you choose to flash the ET version of the ROM. I couldn't find a list of tweaks contained in ET or which kernel they were optimized for.
