So did I, but page detects flash is there and you get the touch symbol on all flash potential fields. If you freeze or uninstall flash then many web pages will load non flash code and look more ? normal.

The big question is whether someone needs flash or not. Maybe some day it will finally die. Many of the sites i like with videos that need flash also have apps that don't need flash, and I am finding I don't need flash as much as I used to.

Someone earlier reported the same problem. However when he booted it showed the bootloader was still unlocked. I think he then installed recovery and got everything back. If I read the post correctly, you don't really need to get root to install rom because rom installs it. I dont remember if its in the 700 or 300 threads.

do a reboot and see if the messages tells you its unlocked.

Just got around to installing 5.0.4 and the new LMK tweak. I had 5.0.3 with the tweak and xposed. I can't believe how quickly this is flying. I'm looking forward to seeing the battery life once it settles in.

I just want to thank sbdags, LMK and Hund. I know there's a lot of effort behind the scenes and we all appreciate it.

At what point did we get .25x transitions? It's damn quick and I'm loving it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I think I might finally be converted to 4.2UI ......:silly: setting the top transparent and sizes to 80% is not at all bad. Does anyone know how to make the bottom bar transparent?

Edit, never mind transparency settings worked after a reboot....
[Asus Transformer TF700] tiernan22:
Is it possible to port the LMK tweaks to Hund's TF201 version? Perhaps it's just a silly question.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Can't see where I can change from power saving, balanced, and performance modes on the 4.2 launcher. Am I missing something somewhere?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Nope you are missing nothing. Asus didn't include one, other than in settings, Asus customise.....
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
That's a good idea actually. I'll be diffing his tweaks so I can port to any device and kernel.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tiernan22:
Thank you. I have no doubt my wife would appreciate that on hers!
[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Any way to make the icons and font larger in the status bar?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Use xposed and gravity box to increase the size.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Been looking there. Haven't found it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Right, I think you can only change the size of the notification bar. Don't see that option for the top either.

But I'm also starting to like the 4.2 launcher - except for the style and icons in the quick settings panel. Yuck!
[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Glad it's not just me. Ya know, eyes and all. And your right about the launcher. It does grow on you.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Hmm I thought I had changed the top bar but maybe I was mistaken as like you lot I can't find it now .....
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
I have looked at hund, max, _that kernels. They can be tweaked to get more performance out of it... I don't know why most of these settings are at defaults. I believe that hund is the only one playing around a little bit with his settings... I could be wrong and wrong so many times, hahaha.

BTW, does any anyone sees improvement on updating apps and doing other works at the same time?

Edit: Those settings will work on all kernels because they are commons..
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Was your 3.4 version supposed to be flashed with Hund's 3.3.6 already installed? Wasn't there an app with Hund's kernel? Can't find it in my app drawer :what:

I flashed 3.4 on top of _thatv5. Just did an update from the Playstore and started Gmail while downloading and that brought Gmail to a grinding halt. Couldn't do anything until the download finished. :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
I am writing this while downloading an app from the store. It is fine over here. I am not sure why.. I need to take a look closely.
[Asus Transformer TF700] acraigl:
Can't find the bottom bar transparency either... I edited the status bar and the nav bar transparency but only the status bar is changing (even after reboot)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
What abut my questions? Shouldn't I have Hund's app if I flashed this kernel ???
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
LMK didn't include it but the latest version is in hunds thread. 2.3 I think now. 2.0 is included in 5.0.4 if you flash hunds 3.3.8.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
You are spoiled by sbdags. Sbdags adds it in on his rom. I don't think hund has it in his kernel. I need to take a look into it... I can add it in if you want it in there....For now, you can sideload his v2.3..
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You got that right

[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
I'm running 5.0.4 with hands 3.4. I get a lot of lag, actually I get a lot of extremely delayed app loads and seemingly unresponsive app behavior to the point where I put it down and come back sometimes.

I've wiped every combination and don't use data2sd. I get 4800 scores. I have 113 applications that show up when I select the app drawer in the launcher (ADW Ex.) Is performance affected by the number of applications even when I haven't actively started them?

Does the ET add-in loaded with CROMi-Xenogenesis 5.0.4 support hunds 3.4, or should we only use it with 3.3.6? Thx

When you use "sideload" in this case, do you mean install the apk?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
No it doesn't but flash LMK's 3.4 ET a few posts up and you'll be a lot happier. I think the issue with ET in 5.0.4 is fsync is enabled unless you chose to disable it. fsync enabled results in poor IO on any kernel. I had the same issues with the app store when updating - literally couldn't do anything for 5 mins. Disabling fsync fixes that issue.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Where can I download this 3.4 ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Could you please remind me how to disable fsync without reflashing the rom?

Thanks!

I just updated trickster mod from the store. Whilst downloading I would say the device was 50% laggy, I.e., it felt twice as slow. As soon as it started updating it was unresponsive for 2 mins. No screen touches were registered at all. Then suddenly all was back to normal. I thought it might be fsync related as last time I had it enabled. This time it is disabled though. Weird. I'll see if I can grab a logcat.

I can't really see much in the logcat other than the following gets repeated a lot.

Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] JoinTheRealms:
10-06 08:16:11.454 W/hwcomposer(131): Potential underflow detected, enacting countermeasures is related to the gpu not rendering fast enough, but thats just a warning.

not sure about No package identifier when getting value for resource number 0x00000000 its seems it corresponds with devices being extremely laggy.

try adding this to sysctl.conf im not sure where this is found under android.

vm.dirty_bytes=2048000

seems like the same issue we have on linux, something to do with memory caching dirty pages, when a limit is reached, that cache is writen to disk heavily affecting io. thank pvka13 if it helps;)

[Asus Transformer TF700] tjs62:
Just getting it straight in my mind..

On the OG Droid before a flash they wanted you to clear data, clear cache, and do it three times. I know the three times is not necessary here. I see In TWRP I can go into Advance Wipe and check cache and data to wipe them before an install, but there is also an option for a factory reset which you should probably do every so often. What's the difference and which should I do and when? I did a flash over 4.7 and I keep redoing it to try different kernels and I feel that the tablet might start bogging down soon and I don't want to hit a button that I can't undo.

WW or US version of v5.0

1. I am running v4.7 and installed TWRP 2.6.1. I am in the US, but I also need to use various character keyboard layouts (changing with the Globe button), Do I need to flash the WW version or the US to have other keyboard layout accessible?

What is the difference between the two versions?

2. I am running the default settings - I am not great with tweeking settings. Is it worth in this case to install V5 over v4.7?

(I know this is a somewhat loaded questions, sorry.)

Thanks

Peter
[Asus Transformer TF700] schmeggy929:
in TWRP, clicking the wipe tab will bring you the Wipe options. By swiping the tab at the bottom performs a Factory Reset which is wiping Dalvik,cache and data. It means all data Including the internal Sdcard will be erased. (all user apps will be erased and have to be downloaded again. This brings the tablet to a clean working slate.

Advanced wipe you have options to to just wipe Dalvik, cache, system, data and sdcard card. To save time and data many just wipe Dalvik and cache and then flash the ROM. The new ROM will be installed and all your apps, screens will still be there. If you find the tablet not running well or there are bugs. Always perform a Factory Reset and reinstall the ROM. This helps the developer of the ROM eliminates the issue isnt one of YOUR installed apps.

Trying different kernels you can just go to Advanced Wipe and select Dalvik and Cache or perform a dirty flash which is not wiping anything.

Hope that clears it up for you. :)

Sorry, I was on the road trip and did not have wifi access so I can not reply to everyone until now...

I am not sure about No package identifier warning. I will take a look in it. About the underflow, everyone has this issue on the tf700t. Some have more than others which is called a black line that discussed a while back..:)

About the lags when you are downloading while working at the same time, I am very sure that we can fix that issue because I don't have that problem. I need more information how others setup their devices in order to compare with mine.

Does anyone use v3.4 ET have the downloading problem or do not have that problem? Please give some feedback so I can fix it..:) Thanks in advance..

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 PM ----------

On my device, it is about high 40C which is not that much difference. The temperture of your device is telling you how hard your CPU and GPU are working. If you have a lot of activities running on the background, you may have a higher temperature than others. The default shutdown temperture on the tf700 is 100C. You should be safe... :) I ticked the checkbox in the developer options that said "Don't keep activities" so all apps will be terminated as soon as closing them. Some come back on lines again after that, especially free apps and games. You can check them in the system setting under app and running proccess. Thanks for the feedback..:)

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

Those settings are already integrted in the kernel.

vm.dirty_background_ratio=75

vm.dirty_ratio=50

You either choose one set or the other. Otherwise, they will be conflicted and use the last values that it executes. I chose the ratio so it is in percents rather than pages. I guess that how it works...:)

I've decided to try out the extreme tweaks and I ran into quite a weird problem. I did a clean install by following the instructions from post 1337.

The first thing I noticed is that my DPI is 213 although I selected 240 in the installer. I did another dirty install and another clean install but I couldn't get it to 240.

Another rather odd problem is that the date and time settings are stuck on GMT time zone. No matter what I change in the settings they always revert to this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
That may be the reason why you don't have slowdowns when updating apps via the Play store and others do. Most want to keep the ability to "Multitask" (which is a great feature of Android). You are basically eliminating that feature (or at least greatly reducing it).

Try your Play store tests with that option unchecked and see what kind of results you get...

Also, typing on a forum is not a very good test. Try opening and closing some apps while downloading items from the Play store - I think you'll see what everyone else sees - things slow down dramatically...

For me it does not make a difference if "Don't keep activities" is checked or not. I can neither detect any difference with Hund's/LMK 3.4 or with _that v5.

I have tested this for the last hour or so on both kernels. Always downloaded the same app from the Store, tried to open/switch between the same apps while downloading/installing.

Interestingly the worst lag (to the point where I get the "... is not responding" message) is for about 2 minutes AFTER the downloaded app installed.

I miss the smoothness I have become accustomed to since I flashed 5.0.4.

I am going to do a clean install and see if I can find that sweet spot again.

WIthout unlocking you can't flash anything buddy. You could make some tweaks but without a custom kernel you will be limited as you'll only have root avaiable.
