This is driving me up the walls. I swear the remapped forward del button did work in the browser!!! I tested it when you stated that it doesn't work on XDA.

But now it doesn't.... It works in any app with a text box I have tried but nowhere in the stock browser or boat browser.

I did flash 5.2.3 in between but don't see how that can have anything to do with it.

Yes thanks. Added some details to earlier post: Tried formatting card in FAT32, NTFS, extFAT. Same results.
[Asus Transformer TF700] guliver365:
I got a similar case with a card formated with gparted the card is working normally except the fat32 partition is not visible from TWRP got microsdcard (0mb) so I had to install cromi from the internal partition, beside this issue the fat32 is usable from the tablet itself where I can see storage micro SD with the full capacity allocated also the EXT4 are working normally

Battery Drain - TF700 - Cell Standby???

Running a TF700 with the latest Cromi and Hunds 3.4.2 I think. Normal install and everything works as it should. No complaints.

But battery drain is a little high so ran battery stats pro and it tells me that when the tab is in standby, over 50% of the battery drain is due to "cell standby". This doesn't have a cell component so don't understand.

Looked for a setting to turn off but don't see one.

Is it maybe one of the apps I have installed?

Any help would be appreciated.

TIA

There is a bug with the dock keeping your tablet from deep sleep...:( Here is the thread discussing and troubleshooting that bug. I don't know if the bug is identified..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2499218

You can try to monitor your tablet standby battery usage without the dock to eliminate all the variables so you have a narrow area to troubleshoot your issue...:) Without dock, you should have a very low drain during sleep.. Good luck..:fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
We will need a bootloader for 4.3.

I tried to port the TF701T rom to the TF700 but there are a number of issues including it is built for a TEGRA 4 so it doesn't work unfortunately. The system partition is much larger on the TF701T as well so a lot would need to be chopped although ROM2SD might solve that.

I might try messing with it again over the XMas period.

I have flashed Rom2Sd CromiX 5.2.3, but when I reboot there is no option to choose SD or internal??

Is this normal, or did I do something wrong.

I followed the procedure to do a nandroid backup, after flashing normal 5.2.3, to external mSD card and restoring.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Boot with SD card in = rom2sd

Boot with it out = internal ;)

You can pop it back in on an internal boot as soon as the boot logo appears and it will stay on internal until the next boot.

[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
What are the collective opinions on whether the TF700T's performance is directly correlated with the number of installed apps? All things being equal that is.

I am running _that's v7 on 5.2.3 and like it overall. I like the recent hund's with and without ET. I find that with each of them that the tablet is slow to respond to touches to reawaken, startup apps, and to transition between apps using the leftmost dbl box icon to show running/recent (not clear on which is the real behavior) apps. I've judiciously applied different tweaks, etc. The only variable i haven't changed is the number of apps. I know that booting is faster with fewer apps, but I'm wondering about the number of installed apps. I tend to wipe away an app or two when the recent apps list gets to 5/6.

Thx!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I don't think that the shear number of apps matters except after a clean installation when Dalvic gets rebuild.

The kind of apps you're running may make a difference though.

If you have a lot of social media apps and/or widgets on your home screen(s) that automatically update when you wake the tablet - that will slow it down. If you have automatic updating turned on in the Play Store - that will slow it down.

Running lagfix once a month or so may help depending on how you use your tablet.

And, IMHO, regular clean installs work wonders.

I am running 5.2.3 with _thatv7, I have one home screen, the only widget I use is the Asus weather widget, I use a static wallpaper, most app shortcuts are in folders and the tablet wakes up instantly. There is no hesitation or even stutter when I bring up the recent apps list and switching between apps/starting new apps is also instantly.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thibor69:
Ok I understand all you are telling me, and it makes 100% sense. Only weird thing is I am 90% sure my internal and external are NOT THE SAME. I know for a fact that the boot-up animation is different. internal uses Cromi-Blue-Fire animation and ROM2SD (external) uses Cromi-Bios animation ... but I will do it the way you and sbdags are saying it should be done.

Maybe I need to put down the shot glass. :silly:

Been using rom2sd for a month. No issues. All of a sudden, my tab, when restart gets stuck at splash screen. Reinstalled ROM,worked for a while then again stuck. Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I bet your internal and external ROM are not the same! I did exactly the same: Chose a different boot animation to give myself a clue what I am booting into.

BUT - if you did not flash _that's "rom2sd1" before making a nandroid in TWRP, the recovery wouldn't be able to see the ext4 partitions on your external. It would just backup the internal partitons.

So check the TWRP > Backups folder on your internal and I bet you'll find multiple backups there.

After using my tf for 2-3 days it starts rebooting, when it starts up it only comes too cromi bios, then it reboots again. I discover that when I insert charger cord it starts right up as normal. Battery stat is repprting 95 % in tf and 94 in keyboard. Can it be som error with bat stat repporting? :crying:
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
No sure I understand your question...

A nandroid is a backup or copy of your current system and data. You create it by using the 'Backup' feature in TWRP (very good idea to get into the habit of having a nandroid of your last working system, btw).

I think you may be asking about sbdag's method to clone his internal rom and setup to rom2sd?

For that you would first backup your internal rom in TWRP .

TWRP's default backup location is your internal SD, but you can change it to your microSD.

So boot into TWRP, insert your ROM2SD microSD, backup your internal system to the microSD (TWRP will only recognize the fat32 partition of the card).

Go back to Home in TWRP, flash 'rom2sd1' - now TWRP will treat your ext4 partitions on the card as the /system and /data partitions. The fat32 partition is still recognized as "microSD".

Go to "Restore", select the backup you just made of your internal, swipe the button and reboot when finished.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jeffruby:
Thanks for the explanation. To be honest I just cannot figure out why I've been running rom2sd successfully for a month, and now I can only boot up if SD card out. Once SD in - just does boot animation indefinitely
[Asus Transformer TF700] berek9999:
This happened to me me recently. Turned out the SD card had become faulty - everything was still present on it and reading data was fine, but any new writes would fail 50% of the time. This confused me no end as when I took it out and tried copying files from my PC to the FAT32 partition to test it, it worked ok to start with. However, looking at it under GParted consistently threw up errors. It was a new card so I just returned it for a refund and bought a decent Sandisk card instead.

You shouldn't have to worry about how many apps, homescreens, and widgets you are using if your tablet is running as efficiently as possible. it doesnt matter how many apps, widgets, or homescreens l have, **** is always smooth. Getting rid of poorly coded/designed apps can help, but so long as you have quality apps/widgets you should not have major lag or performance issues.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Waldo_:
So thisis probably a dumb question, but I'll ask it anyway. To make a nandroidd backup whilst running rom2sd do we need to flash the files that_that (that is funny) posted in the rom2sd thread or are they already installed when you install Cromi-X? BTW, Happy Holidays fellow geeks!

Hi friends, just need a quick check about adb and fastboot on the tf700. Is it normal for me to be unable to flash a custom recovery through fastboot commands when the tablet is docked? To be precise, when my tablet is docked and in fastboot mode, whenever I try "fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery file_name.img", I am always stuck at "sending recovery". However, if I undock the tablet, everything works perfectly. If it is normal, I suggest we should update the instructions in the first post to tell new users to undock when they start flashing stuff. I would greatly appreciate if someone can help me confirm this.

4.2 Launcher Lag

I'm sure this has been addressed previously

But I was just wondering if anyone knew why the 4.2 Launcher is really laggy

While the 4.1 Launcher is smooth as butter?

I love the 4.2 Launcher and want to use it but can't stand the lag, so I have to use 4.1 :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] acraigl:
I've been using 4.2 for a while now... switched to check out Xposed... and I find it to be really responsive overall. Especially since the last few rounds of optimization and _that's v7. No desire to switch back as this point. Which options did you install with?
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRamz:
I'm on Hunds, the usual fsync diabled, software rendering disabled. 1.8ghz clock 650mhz for the GPU

4.1 is perfect in terms of responsiveness but when I switch to 4.2 it's just horrible? I find it weird but it's been this way since I first tried 4.2 which was months and months ago :/
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
Not using any stock launchers but I will say that Apex Launcher has always been the smoothest by far for me.

Plus it is wickedly customizeable and has a low footprint, you can make it look like the 4.2 launcher if you want.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Well Asus officially hid the 4.2 launcher from TF700 users and I suspect it is because they never optimised it and it is laggier. Definitely. The user community figured out how to enable it again through a launcher shortcut and me and elesbb worked out how to get it back by using the settings from the TF300 Asus ROM. So officially you shouldn't be on it.

4.1 works very well though ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] aybesea69:
I finally gave up on getting Titanium Backup to work, and just decided to do a fresh install using rom2sd. I took my SD card and added a third partition in ext4. Then I installed and all seemed to go fine. After booting from the SD card, I started to configure stuff, and all was good until the first time I rebooted. Then I got a boot loop.

Anyway, to make a long story short, I reformatted the 2 ext4 partitions on my Linux box, and reinstalled rom2sd again. Since then all seems to be good.

Now 2 questions about rom2sd :

1) if I want to switch kernels, what is the procedure?

2) is it possible to upgrade just the external rom (when the next CROMi-X comes out). What is the procedure?

3)for that matter, can you do internal only? Or, what if I want to dirty flash both?

A really comprehensive rom2sd FAQ would be great. In fact, if I can get this all figured, maybe I'll try my hand at writing one. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
1. If just a kernel or the kernel installer. Flash that's rom2sd1.zip and then flash the kernel you want - this will install the kernel to your external setup.

2. just chose the kernel and then the option that is called rom2sd (option 3)

3. you can dirty flash either just using the options in the cromi-installer ;)

That's post with the rom2sd1 and 2 in it is pretty much everything you need to know. All you are doing when you flash the rom2sd1.zip file is toggling what TWRP sees as the 'internal' sd card and mount points. (Or nodes)

The CROMi-X installer does it slightly differently but in essence the theory is the same. It just switches the /data and /system partition to the physical partitions on the external sd card for the duration of the installer and then installs a preinit script to internal /system/boot. Both that's and hund's kernels look for this file which tells them what to do at boot, rom2sd or data2sd for example.

Simples :)

No, I think you have misunderstood my question, I wasn't trying to connect the tablet to my laptop through the dock's USB port. What I was doing at the time was try to flash a custom recovery when the tablet is connected to my laptop through the dock's charging port, which is the standard way of connecting the tablet to a PC when it is docked. The problem is that the flash custom recovery command doesn't work in that set-up, unless I remove the dock and connect my tablet to the PC directly ("fastboot devices" works normally with the dock though). In a nutshell, my question is whether such behavior is normal or is there a problem with my unit? Can you connect your tablet to the keyboard dock and connect the whole thing to your PC and then flash a custom recovery through fastboot?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I'll be dam***! Not for the life of me would I have thought of this! LOL

But you are right: I can connect fine in adb and fastboot through the dock's charging port. I pushed and pulled a couple of files in ADB and that works too. I do not want to mess with my recovery right now - maybe somebody else is up for that. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnnytraveler:
I'll be dam (2). I didn't realize 4.1 was that much smoother. Every time I loaded a rom, first thing I did was switch it 4.2. I'm one of those that noticed lag with the browser (Boat in my case). Doesn't seem to be a problem any more now I'm running 4.1. Will keep testing and report back. Thanks for the tip (although it appears unintended, as you were looking for a solution, not offer one).

I have been running the 4.2 launcher since sbdags included Xposed in the rom. That was what got me to try the 4.2 in the first place and though I still miss the Asus notification panel I really like it. I stopped using Gravitybox since I found the hassle of setting it up again and again after flashing is not worth it. Plus my feeling was it actually slowed things down - like most eye candy...

But I honestly don't know what you guys mean when you complain about lag with it :confused:

I don't have any! And then, maybe it's because I reduced my setup from 4 home screens to one?

I'm getting lazier by the minute! :cyclops: All this swiping if you can put stuff in folders..
