[Asus Transformer TF700] nevertells2:
[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION],

Well I finally made the leap to Cromi-x 5.4 this weekend and after a couple of false starts, have to say I am impressed. After reading about how some folks having so many problems getting their 700 unlocked, that was not my case. It went smoothly and quickly. First false start was getting TWRP installed. I tried using fastboot and kept getting an error. Suppose it just goes to show I need to brush up on my adb/fastboot skills.(ha) Finally used Blackmambazzz's tool and TWRP installed smoothly. Great tool, who needs fastboot? :p

Second false start was was more of finding the right kernel. Went with that's v.4 kernel (the default) on the first install(as well as all the default selections) and found the tablet as laggy or worse than Asus' factory Rom. After a few hours of fighting with that, went back and selected that's v.8 kernel. Bumped the clock up to 1800mhz and what a difference. Asus should buy your work [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] and use it as their factory Rom. :good:

I've been using CyanogenMod on another tablet for almost three years, so to say I was disappointed(read that as spoiled) in Asus' limited and restricted settings and options. My hope was that finally installing Cromi-x would improve on some of Asus' short comings. And it has especially on the performance end. First thing I had to do was get rid of their launcher and go with ADW. Thanks for including that in the options on install. ADW used to be the default launcher on CM7 and I loved it. When CM decided for whatever reasons to boot ADW and write Trebuchet, what a let down. Trebuchet is a piece of crap IMHO. I've used Go, Nova, ADW and GEL to avoid Trebuchet. The only reason for Trebuchet's existence is to allow you to quickly replace it with a better launcher.

Being a spoiled CM user, one feature that CM has that I hoped would be fixed in Cromi-x was the lack of a remove all function in the recent apps. It's a bit of a pain to have to swipe again and again to empty out the recent apps. If there is a hidden way to blow them all out that I am not aware of, if so, someone please clue me in. Look at that feature on KK. One quick tap and recent apps are cleared out.

Another CM feature that would be nice is the ability to place a actual percent number next to or integrated into the battery icon. Something that did go away with this Rom is when plugged into the wall charger, the normal lightning bolt on the battery icon no longer appears. I know it's charging correctly via Battery Monitor Widget.

FYI, I opted to install MyLibrary for a reader and it refused to work. Tried all the tricks to get it going and no luck. No big deal, I really like the Nook reader, so just installed that and I'm happy. Just thought you would want to know.

Like I said, there is so much stuff missing in settings that I have grown accustomed to in CM. Now that you are working on a CM Rom, I'm sure you are seeing what I am talking about. If for some reason you decide against going forward with KK (I really don't see that happening) for whatever reason or you see some neat features that would port to your Cromi-x Rom, that would be cool.

Needless to say, it's a pleasure to use my Infinity again with your Rom installed. And I'll be lurking over in your CromBi-kk thread watching for the appropriate time to try testing that. It will be like old home week once again using a CyanogenMod Rom. You guys that do this stuff are amazing. I don't know what you do when you are not writing code for the Asus tablets on several different fronts, but if you are married, your wife probably considers herself a "Computer Widow". ;)

One other question, did I read somewhere in the thread that you need to do some tweaking on the Kernel & Tweaks Installer to get it working correctly with version 5.4?

BTW, how did you get hooked up with lj50036? I read in your profiles that you are in England and he is in Iowa. Was it serendipity or fate? :D Anyway, thanks for doing what you do.
