I have a problem :\

flashed it today, everything worked smooth.

after a few minutes i rebooted it (when i used the cromi app to make the dock and the sd notification away)

and since then i got bootloped, tried to restore the Nand and it dosn't work either :\

tried a clean flash with different kernels with data2sd - same..

only without data2sd i can manage to get it work..

any suggestions?

btw if i did managed to bypass the bootlop it stuck with the "Android is upgrading" massage..

Did you activate the gravitybox module in xposed?
[Asus Transformer TF700] vnphatbuddha:
Same here with the multiple radom reboots and lag after installing 5.1.2 but it seems to have stopped after a while. Pretty fast and snappy from the last one, very good job with tweaking and implementing ET properly sbdags! hats off to u bro
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Fixed
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
I do not see anyway of doing that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Xposed, modules, put a tick in the box and then reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I think the problem here is CROMi-control uses the hot reboot method, it doesn't wait for files to be written just reboots. I think his could be causing data corruption. Does a nandroid restore work after?

[MENTION=2675647]elesbb[/MENTION] any ideas about the hot reboot - can we change it to a normal reboot on apply?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
And it would be advisable to turn on fsync before rebooting. Always.

btw, is the control app open source?

[Asus Transformer TF700] elesbb:
Ive been using it on my S4 without any issues. I think the issue lies in the data2sd. Might be putting my files for my app onto the sd card and the system files can't find it then. Not sure, but the file is written to it immediatly after selecting whatever it is you want. So i can't see how the file isn't written to before the reboot happens.

When does data2sd get mounted and activated? Init.d or kernel level? If its kernel level I think the system files should still be able to access it.. Not too sure. Data2sd can get pretty wacky.
[Asus Transformer TF700] toolmanz:
Same thing happened to me - first time for a bootloop on my tablet - ever. I did the same - used the CROMI app and then just bootloops. Re-did a clean install and didn't use CROMI app - been fine ever since. I just use fullscreen+ and they don't show anyway ; )
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
No it won't be data2sd related - it's done at the kernel level. Swaps mmcblk0p8 to mmcblk1p2 on the card. I'm pretty sure it'll be the fsync off and hot reboot. It reboots immediately - so waiting message. If you do a normal reboot it waits before powering down. This can cause corruption when fsync is disabled.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aracy:
that's the wierd thing.. Nandroid restore is giving the same results

is there any way to get access to the files on my sd card if i'm not on data2sd?

beacuse i can only see the 8mb on my card.. the other 64gb are missing
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Run this in Terminal or adb shell:

su
mkdir /Removable/Data2SD
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /Removable/Data2SD
[Asus Transformer TF700] elesbb:
Ahh. So should i switch it to a regular reboot?
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
My sdcard has become flaky and anything that i install in a data2sd-like fashion would bootloop. You may want to try another card partioned with gparted and see what you get. I haven't missed it though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] elesbb:
I'm talking about the way cromi control reboots dude.. lol
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
I did a search to find the answer. I am certain that i gave up 1 search too early. What do the volume steps in the cromi control setting optios mean?Part 2: I like the app kill feature. I notice that the killed app is still in the suspended apps list from the icon to the right of the home icon. What does that mean? Thx!
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRamz:
Vvvv? Sorry I don't understand haha
[Asus Transformer TF700] calvinb1:
Hmmm... Asus My Frame crashes When I go to Settings and try to select a photo. Can someone else confirm?
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
By any chance, you have the "wifi Optimization" check or enable? Are you using _that's kernel? I may know what causing it, just a guess for now..:fingers-crossed:

About the toast notification, I have that issue one in a while randomly. Sometime, changing mode will not go away and other time the bluetooth is stuck. Thanks for the information. I will try to eliminate those tweaks one by one to see which one is the culprit..:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Marusaia:

Go to your device settings and select 'Asus Customized Setting'

From there you can choose you different modes and some other asus settings :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Thanks for the information. The probability of my assumption is getting higher....:) let me do some more test and I may have a solution...:fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Pointing down - the sbdags post that I quoted underneath. Like ^^^^ means to point up.

Yes to both, actually. And yeah, I've had the charging toast occur before as well, just had forgotten about it.

OK, kewl. In the meantime, now that I know what is causing the reboots when on Hunds and using Cromi Control app, I can switch over to that - and since 5.1.2 just came out, well, looks like I'm doing some playing tonight....
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Ok guys, just flashed _that v5 to test my theory. I will let my wifi on and in the deep sleep over night. I will run the test tomorrow morning...:) I will report back tomorrow with the result..

It is getting late here and have an early meeting tomorrow. It is time for bed...Good night..:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRamz:
Oh right haha

Well when I use Cromi Control I don't use the app to reboot. I'll manually reboot it since I want to avoid data corruption. So don't think that was the problem but thats :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] ntunix:
Thanks for another update!

Btw, this was the first time I had to do a complete format between upgrades. After upgrading from Odex 5.1.1 to Odex 5.1.2 (dirty flash), my TF700 crashed whenever I selected Settings -> Status. Had to format data and flash again to try to get it working, but it didn't work, so I'm going back to 5.1.1...

Anyone else had this issue?
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
On new builds my emails being sent from other apps,like gallery, were not going out. I had to drop exchange2.apk into system\apps\ and resend them before they would go out. I suggest adding it in basic rom.

I also have this issue, odex 5.1.2 ET, didn't notice till you mentioned it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
Help me out please. When I open settings I do not see a status setting. Where am I missing this?

Nevermind I found it. When I click on it it crashes settings also.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It's under settings, about device, status.

But what do you need to go there for? I slimmed down some of the ROM so unnecessary apps weren't being held in ram. All it checks for is if there is an ota update which you will never get. Am I missing something?
[Asus Transformer TF700] acraigl:
Prolly just put off by the 'unforunately...' message when it fails out. I would have never known about this had I not read it here. Doesn't bother me in the slightest :).

I thought I had a real problem as my tablet was no longer charging. Switched power supplies, cords, everything, but no luck. Finally, I tried charging it directly instead of through my Connect Dock. Turns out the dock power pass-through died the same day I upgraded to this ROM version.

Now I just need to figure out the corn-maze of Asus RMA process.:(
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnnytraveler:
I'm glad the smart ones are looking into the wifi lag. Had real problems with browser yesterday. Did a clean install, but it was a temporary fix as later in the day, lag was back.

I never use it, obviously since I didn't notice till now. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] william tanaya:
Can someone help me? This happen to me twice now. I changed the notification setting on CROMI setting, and when I restarted, it stuck on boot animation. the first time it happened (I'm on CROMI 5.1.0), I have to clean wipe everything in order to make it work.

I wipe everything clean, and I updated it to 5.1.1. and now when I tried to change the notification setting, the same thing happen again.

Do I need to clean wipe everything again?

How to format the SD Card for ROM2SD

First and foremost - DO NOT USE MINI TOOL!

Formatting a micro sd card for ROM2SD

We will be using a GParted Live boot USB and a FAST good quality micro sd like a Sandisk or Samsung Class 10 - SDHC/SDXC UHS-1 card with read speed of at least 20MB/S. If you have a cheap chinese eBay card don't bother - they are not good enough.

You will also need a USB Stick with at least 1GB size. Note this process formats the USB disk so don't keep any important files on it. It will also wipe your micro sd so make sure you are prepared.

1.	Go to the link below and download the GParted Live CD/USB/HD/PXE Bootable Image and save it somewhere you remember

http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php

2.	Download Linux Live USB Creator and install it

http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

3.	Fire up LiLi USB Creator:

a.	Choose your USB key - I,e, the drive letter for your USB (not sd card)

b.	Choose your GParted iso image for the source

c.	Choose the check box to Format Key in FAT32 and hide files

d.	Click the lightning bolt to create

4.	Now you have a bootable disk you need to boot from it. You may need to alter you BIOS Settings on your PC to boot from a USB Stick but mine did it without messing.

5.	Insert your micro SD card into an SD Card adapter and insert into PC

6.	Boot into GParted ;)

7.	Choose Gparted Live <Enter>

8.	Don’t touch keymap <Enter>

9.	Languge <Enter>

10.	Start Gparted Automatically

11.	Change device to your micro sd )it will default to you hard disk - hda– mine is /dev/sdc

12.	Delete all existing partitions

For a 64GB card: (resize as needed but /system doesn't need to be bigger than 1GB)

13.	Create new, always select primary: do this 3 times.

14.	FAT 32 : Size 16GB – this will be /dev/sdc1 in gparted and will be your sdcard for storage in Android

15.	EXT4 : Size 42GB – this will be /dev/sdc2 in gparted and will be your /data partition in Android

16.	EXT4 : Size 1GB – this will be /dev/sdc3 in gparted and will be your /system partition in Android

Apply, wait until it finishes and then reboot. Remember to remove the usb stick ;)

download 5.1.2

Been trying to download 5.1.2 and every mirror I try fails.

I'm not doing anything different from all the other downloads I have done.

Is there a problem with the mirrors?
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Neither did I - I performed my reboot manually several hours later, and I never hot booted - I just performed a regular reboot. And I still bootlooped.

I'm not so sure I can agree - I've *never* had a WiFi slowdown this dramatic in such short time periods. By dramatic, welll, take a look at hte screen shots I posted in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47278856&postcount=2181

When you're barely getting 1/6th to 1/7 of your normal speeds over multiple sppedtest.net tests, and every other device connected to the same router is getting normal speeds, you (well, me, anyway lol) tend to get antsy. And believ eme, after having had this connection for many years now, I instantly notice lag and start checking on every device that I use.

Have you tried just turning WiFi off and on again? That seems to work to fix it so that I am getting max speeds again, and is a lot faster than format --> reinstall....

Known issue that occurs right after using the Cromi Control app - they are lookig into it already. A possible work around is to restore a nandroid backup of your install as it was before you used Cromi control, I think....
[Asus Transformer TF700] ntunix:
You're missing out knowing what is your IP address, Wifi Mac Address, Bluetooth Address, Serial number of the device and Uptime of the System... ;)

I kind of use that frequently... I understand you concern with RAM but I think this is somewhat useful information, would love to see it working again on a next release... or at least to know what .apk do I need to add to the ROM to make it work again... :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Good point - it's not just check for updates....
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
I wonder if this would work (I know a full blown VM / ViirtualBox will work, but I ran into this a while back, and think it might be great for small projects like this without the need to sacrifice either platters or UFDs)....

[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
And that is why I cannot agree - it never happened on stock.

I think that in making the quote, the forum software (or I, one of us) screwed up the quotation. At one point you said that you think it is the tablet itself, and that was in reply to sbdags saying that he had an issue similar to mine. But the issue never manifested itself before 5.1a (of 5.0a, whichever it was) and never manifested in stock either, before I had ever unlocked, and thus I cannot agree that it is in the tablet itself.

Again, not referring to *your* issues, but the issue that I reported and then sbdags reported again.

it's not a slowdown - it's an almost shutdown - of Wifi - and only downstream.

Take a look at my screen caps, back in post 2181, IIRC, and you'll - it's like sbdags said - 90% of (downstream) bandwidth is gone. And when you replied to him saying that I might be on to something, you said you thik it is a 700 issue - and no, this is not a 700 issue because I've had my 700 well over a year and it only just no started doing it.

EDIT: Yeah, forum software is wonky about quoting people - I quoted only your post and it removed the initial quotation reference, making it look like the entire post is from me. I ahd to add the quotation reference back in for this post to make sense.

---------- Post added at 09:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

And that would be a no. On my system, with ample processor and RAM, it had issues loading Chrome OS and completley failed to load GParted.

Oh well.

EDIT2: It did not edit out my quotation when I replied to my own post. weird.
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Hmm, so it's still showing an issue regardless of whether WiFi optimization is on or off. But LMK thinks he is on to the solution of it.

In the meantime, I am off to flash 5.1.2....

[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
Spdags,

There seems to be several issues with installs. Boot loops and the like. I dont know the exact timing on the wifi issues but around that time is when xposed was added to the rom. I don't know if everyone having problems has xposed installed but it might be worth looking at.

I had three cold reboots after making changes to xposed, i made changes rebooted into os. Got my screens back and and while os was finishing loading system rebooted. Once it rebooted everything seem to work fine.

I also tried a reboot from xposed and it did not fully reboot and i had to do a off button reset.

Something to take a look at. I stopped using it and have had no problems.

DHCP, assigned a static IP by the router - which is how all of my connections are and always have been. I let the router handle IP assignment and leave devices on DHCP.

And again, this is not an issue of slow WiFi all the time - this is an issue where it magically (and frustratingly) slows down after having been asleep for a lengthy period of time. And only downstream - upload is not affected. And a simple cycling of WiFI fixes it.

Yeah I was having problems with ET and Xposed. Made me go into a bootloop that I couldn't recover from. Had to factory reset & wipe system.

Shame because I've gotten really used to 4.2 and I can't stand it with the navbar at 100%

Went back to stock hunds :/

I wasn't 100% sure it was Xposed, perhaps I should try ET without Xposed

another way to partition your sd card is too setup a ubuntu dualboot and use gparted right on your tablet;)

Best kernel from a speed and battery life point of view

Hi all. I am a newbie seeking advice here. I am using _that kernel V4 but am finding that battery life, even in "normal" mode is really bad, and there is oconstant battery drain, especially with wifi on.

Can anyone suggest what would be the best option to get decent speed, and yet have a good battery life ?

Thanks in advance
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sounds like you have a runaway app or a wake lock. Download better battery stats from the play store and monitor what is actually using your battery. Often it's things like weather apps or widgets that demand regular updates and location fixes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Sorry about that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] w4tchout:
Apart from a possible app draining your battery, you can also enable the "disconnect network during sleep"-option. I did and now my transformer is standby for days with minimal battery drain. Its under ASUS customized settings.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRamz:
I did that however I think my device doesn't go into deepsleep for a very long time at all. When I look at my battery chart screen is off but wifi is on, and I left it for hours :/
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I've always wondered about that - what is the difference between the "disconnect network during sleep" option and the option to disable wifi during sleep (under the wifi Advanced settings)?? Don't they technically do the same thing?
[Asus Transformer TF700] butcherbird:
Wow. I was getting 3-4 Mb/sec consistently. Based on this thread, I disabled WiFi optimization last night -- now getting around 16 Mb/sec consistently. Even after 7hrs 21min sleep ... same high speeds on speedtest.net.

I will kill WiFi optimization after every flash, now.

Thank you! :)

Running MiniC 1.1.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ntunix:
Yes, that's right ;) Mine didn't crash either, just the settings app, I should had been more specific...However, it's still a pain for me because I like to check the system uptime every now and then.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Agreed. My problem has been resolved after unticking optimisation. :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
That is a good question. This is just my opinion and please don't kill me if I am wrong...:) The answer to your last question is technically NO but it is also a Yes on our device.

In general, the network is the gateway for your device to communicate with others devices. Wifi is just one of many others modules is running on the background of a device. For example, if you disconnect your wifi on your phone, you still can use your phone to call other people. However, if you disconnect your network, then you can not call or use your wifi at all. I know that it is a lame explain but I hope that you can see the differences.

Since the TF700t is a wifi only device, then it does not matter because wifi is the only module or radio antenna on it...:) If you look into the init.rc and init.cardhu.rc you will see what daemons or modules are started on boot. I hope that it helps....:)

---------- Post added at 09:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

After two days of testing on this issue, I find out some other interesting information beside the slow wifi. I will post the results of what I found out about this issue soon. I will be back soon with some of the explanations and data...:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
I completely understand what you mean - makes sense to me!

I wonder if the "Disconnect network during sleep" actually does anything when using a CAT5 network connection (when using a USB->Ethernet adapter). Maybe the settings do actually differ on the TF700 device in that case... I could test it since I do have a USB->Ethernet adapter.... I'll post my findings.

Although, whats strange is that there is another option that shows up under Settings->Ethernet when you connect a USB->Ethernet device, so again, there would be duplicate settings for that. Strange...
[Asus Transformer TF700] smalis:
Agreed, that is my current setup, running more smoothly and with more available RAM than any prior version. I should mention that I used to use Hund's kernel, but finally had to switch because of how hot it ran my CPU (high 60's low 70's).

Ditto here, Settings|About Tablet|Status force closes the Settings app. This should be fixed for next version please.
