No mate when you flash this Rom it uses an aroma installer which let's the Dev give you choices as you install the ROM so you can get just how you like it and that's v4 kernel is one of the choices in the installer, it sounds a little scary the first time but trust me it's not :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] elesbb:
First, Android DOES have a safe mode, (holding menu button on most devices while at the splash image will cause safe mode to boot) safe mode disables all non /system/app apks, so anything the user installs is not ran.

Secondly, you installed the color theme mod, try setting it up before installing the color theme mod.

Thirdly, as [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] mentioned, nobody else but one person has this and nobody else can reproduce it. So if you want it solved, you will have to do the debugging and get a logcat. I keep telling EVERYONE who has this issue to give me a logcat but yet NOBODY has so i can't help anyone unless they are willing to help themselves.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mj56gt:
Thanks again! When should I do a full wipe? It is not mentioned when the wipe step should be performed in the OP. After the nandroid backup and before the Cromi-X installation?

Also should I pull a copy of the nandroid backup from TF300T to my computer?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
first do the nandroid back up as that is a great way to recover if thing go wrong but ive never had to use it lol, then if you want to do a clean install then make sure you backed up your app with titanium backup then after your nandroid is done then click wipe in twrp then just swipe to wipe then click install and choose cromi

---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

whats the easiest way to get a logcat mate
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] elesbb:
Well, if nobody knows how to do a logcat there is Google for that :P But obviously drivers and adb are needed.

Once the device is plugged in to computer, power on device and wait for it to start looping at the splash screen image.

Give it another say 2 minutes minimum for ADB to kick in (it takes some time on the device when a boot loop occurs for logcat to start logging)

After about two minutes,

type adb devices

to ensure the device is listed.

Then type

adb logcat -v time > Bootloop.txt

wait about a good 3 - 5 minutes to allow EVERYTHING to be logged,

then press CTRL+C on the keyboard to stop the capturing process. then post the Bootloop.txt (it is in the directory where you launched the terminal window)

Is anyone else facing the problem of the system grinding to a halt when updating or installing an app? I'm aware that the tablet has a slow I/O chip, but it seems worse than it was when I was on stock. Everything becomes sluggish and pretty much unusable for a few seconds. Not sure why. I'm also getting WiFi drops but that might be a problem on my end, Loving the ROM though. Continual updates are great. Thanks [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION]
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Cheers elesbb now we can point people here :) and yeah i get the slow down too mate when watching movies but its not too bad really
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] elesbb:
Even my S4 slows down when updating/installing apps. Its like a hard drive on your computer, when you access a certain section of the hdd, nothing else can access that same section until the previous task is completed :)

Well, if someone didn't know how to do a logcat and they wanted it fixed, a simple google search would lead to hundreds of thousands of results :P
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mj56gt:
First time flashing a ROM: success! Thanks robgee789 for the great help!

There seem to have a lot of options including those experimental ones that I didn't know what to choose. May try them next time.

One problem: I have trouble installing the Chrome browser in Google Play. It kept failing with an error (error code: -24). When I installed the apk, I got

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED]

Did anybody experience the same problem?

Also when I tried to install K-9 Mail, it says that the device is supported, but I have no trouble installing the .apk file.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ctibor:
I think I know what can be the problem. In 'Settings - About' the serial number shows: "Unknown". Obviously if the tablet somehow lost its serial number the unlock app cannot send it to the Asus server and returns with error message...

(Once I sent the device to the Asus repair centre and maybe the serial was deleted somehow from the system at that time. But I haven't noticed it until now.)

Now I don't know what to do. Am I sentenced to use stock ROM until the end of times?

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sbdags:
Chrome is failing as you have a previous install with remnants that need to be removed. This happens when you do a dirty install on top of asus stock or if you use cache2sd.

The fix is to remove the chrome folders from /data/data or do a clean install.

Also note that the stock browser is far better than chrome on Asus hardware. I see no reason to use chrome as the stock browser is faster, smoother, syncs chrome bookmarks, offers better control of sites and supports flash. ;)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mj56gt:
I installed Cromi-X yesterday, and everything was working smoothly. Now I was just curious, and touched the Reboot button in Cromi Control. The trouble is that the tablet is tuck at the bootloader interface (ASUS - IN SEARCH OF INCREDIBLE). I tried to reboot with the power button, but it came back the same. It seems that I can boot into the fastboot mode. What did I do wrong? And what should I do now?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
i think there was talk of the reboot fuction in cromi control being buggy but i might be wrong mate, but i would boot back to twrp the do a wipe then reninstall cromi but when you use cromi control choose to reboot later then just reboot yourself when your finished, by the way what options did you choose in the installer?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mj56gt:
Thanks a lot for the quick help!

Sorry, what do you mean by 'installer'? I pretty much chose the default setting except for the US build when I installed Cromi-X yesterday including the 'thats v4' kernel. Any suggestions on options for the installation?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
by the installer the thing that pops up when you flash cromi (the bit where you pick what you want) but you shold be good mate so i would reinstall cromi then dont use cromi control to reboot do it yourself mate
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mj56gt:
Thanks! OK, just now reinstalled Cromi-X successfully.

When I tried to set up the tablet (e.g., log in with Gmail account), the default input method is the speaker. There is a keyboard icon right underneath the speaker icon, but I can't bring up the keyboard for some reason (same problem yesterday). I did choose Google keyboard during the installation. What am I missing here?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
Can someone link me to the patched 2.5.0.0 file that I can use for this ROM? I apparently flashed the wrong twrp file and my tablet should be bricked but its not. :D I really need help with this please!!!

CROMi-X 5.0.2 ODEX/DEODEX Released!

Not much changed for the TF300 / TF201 crowd this release I'm afraid. It's all about the new TF700 kernels that have been put out.

We desperately need some TF300 Kernel people! ;)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Goddly:
but i ran the clemsyn 1.8 650 kernel on your 3.X Inheritance Rom and it ran without problems on my US version tab. then Hunds popped up with his 1.8, also ran without incident.. ill be willing to give the kernel a test run for 300 users, if youd like.

but as stated, the gpu overclock doesnt add too much on the performance side, at least not for the 300. ;)

5.01 and Chrome Instalation

When installing Chrome from Market it downloads but when it comes to install it gives out an unknown error....weird. Error -24. Using all the "safe" options and it still happens. I am using an ME301T....anyone knows anything about this? Is it the browser speed-up option? Going to install 5.02 and see what happens now...

edit: Damn....another factory reset did the trick....weird....I had done one prior to installing the rom and did not find anything on data/data folder pertaining to Chrome which I assume is not part of this rom....oh well all fixed now....sorry for the trouble.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] woodsonmh:
In the data/data/ dir there probably is a com.android.chrome dir. Delete it and chrome should install fine.

Woody
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sbdags:
+1 It's always because of a remnant of a previous instllation.

Many thanks to johnnytraveler and Hammerhand.17 for the donations. Really appreciate the support guys.:good::good:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mirrin:
So i have this on my me301t anyone who would care to tell me what settings they found worked best for this as this rom supports so many different tablets...
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] julle131:
Choose ME301T in aroma when installing this rom. Choos WW edition. I personally prefer hunds kernel, but kernel by _that works well too. I can oc my tablet to 1.6ghz stable.

This rom beats stock rom with ease.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] grimsonfart:
Hey sdbags, would be nice if you could bring back the default ASUS boot logo with just the simple CROMI or whatever under it, the one you had in previous versions, not the one that is blue and covers the ASUS logo, i just think that one was the best looking one and now (as far as i know) there are none, not even the default. Thanks and good job on the other things :)

Blah, posted this in the old thread, lol.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I want to make sure I have this right.

Can we flash hushbunds TF700 kernel on our TF300s? It sounds like yes, but I feel like it's a no.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Goddly:
from what im hearing yes, but the max OC of the GPU might be too much for certain devices , (all hardware / thermal paste is not equal lol) but like Sbdags said, have a fire extinguisher handy :p , im planning on flashing a new OC kernel.. 1.8 with the 650 gpu OC (if it cannot be lowered) but as ive said my U.S tab ran 1.8 CPU and 650 GPU without incident... im unsure about the older 700 kernels (earlier 5.x release) compatibility with the 300..
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] julle131:
I know, that name is terrible. I prefer referring it as me301t.

I think I found a bug with cache2sd. I had CCS installed and working, but then I uninstalled it and now in /data/data I have a folder (com.king.candycrushsaga) with an empty folder inside named "cache" that is impossible to delete and now I can't reinstall CCS nor delete the folder (I guess cache2sd makes any kind of link to sd).
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sbdags:
Do this in a terminal window

su

cache2sd -u

That will unmount the cache then you can delete that folder

Yep, that worked.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] sbdags:
You can't it doesn't work that way ;)

Currently for TG users there are no overclocking options. However you can use that's v4.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
So this would work on 4.2.1? Thanks for your help!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Yes mate it will
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
Ok, I flashed that file and it first asks me for the password. When I hit cancel, it would say that I have no information on my tablet. This happened also when I flashed the first 2.5.0.0 recovery. :(

keep in mind that I just flashed the (compressed) zip file using both terminal on android and using ADB on my computer. Should I unzip it?

---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

Ok, so I unzipped the file this time and flashed the blob (because I didn't read it appropriately the last time). and now after I flashed it, I see two twrp screens. :/ this is a bad day for me today :(
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] mj56gt:
I deselected the Asus keyboard both times. Maybe that was the reason for the trouble. I ended up setting up initially without a Google account, and then later in Settings deselected the Google voice typing. After that I added the Google account with the Google keyboard.

The spinning bootloader was a little scary for me. Now everything is back to normal. Thanks a lot for walking me through the whole process.

---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

Yes, that fixed the problem.

Yes, you've convinced me to switch to the stock browser, which does seem to work better than Chrome!

Thank you very much for developing and maintaining the wonderful ROM!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
why just use fastboot like in the thread mate and once you flashed the blob did reboot your tablet and let it boot normally before trying to boot to twrp

Anytime mate glad you got it all sorted
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
What difference would it make to flash it in the fastboot mode?

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

Everytime I flashed my recovery I booted it to the rom, waited for a minute or so then tried entering recovery. What difference does it make to do it in fastboot mode?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
That's the way it's suggested in the thread and it works perfect for me and I also did to get back from the kit kat version, and it's the recommended way on the Twrp site but did you let it boot up properly after you flashed with terminal and then reboot to twrp
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
yeah, I let it reboot before i jump into twrp. Its weird though because i can semi use the recovery, i just need to memorize where the buttons actually are. haha

is there a way I can just wipe the recovery and try installing this one? maybe the bad recovery is affecting it?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
The 2 screen is normally from using the unpatched version I think mate did you get the Twrp from the thread I linked earlier?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
I used the patched 2.5.0.0 twrp that you gave me but the first one I flashed I think was a unpatched version (about 3 flashes ago). Could that be causing this?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Yep that will be it mate use this blob file mate this is the patched version http://www.mediafire.com/?lqf59f193gq9944
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
I flashed it and am still getting the double screen...... It was weird because when I flashed it through fastboot, it immediately came up with the blue bar (as if it was downloading it), but it went to the end as if it was completed, but the blue bar never went away until I rebooted it. Does that mean anything?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
I flashed with fastboot and left it until that bar had gone mate
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
The thing is that my bar doesn't go away. I have waited for literally 5 minutes and that bar wont go away. And during this time, I am able to move the volume bar and boot into recovery, android or wipe data while the blue bar is still there. Heck, the command prompt says its finished and the blue bar is still there :( :( :(

I'm really hating this experience right now.

Thank you so much for your help by the way!! I would be stranded without your assistance!!!! :D :D

---------- Post added at 10:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------

tried going into recovery and it still is double looking. :/
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
You might need to flash the Asus stock image and then twrp after that, but I'm not sure mate, after the cmd window says it's finished do you hold the power button on its own for 10 seconds?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
After that I waited for literally 5 minutes because I was hoping the bar would go away, but after the 5 minutes of waiting, I just decided to reboot it by holding the down volume button with the power button. I'm happy that my tablet OS still works, but I really wanted a taste at the Kit Kat.

Also, one more thing I remember. I have been on twrp 2.4.4.0 when I was on this current bootloader (10.6.1.27.1) and wanted to change it out before I updated the bootloader to .27.5. Is that possible?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
To update your bootloader you need to fastboot the latest Asus stock firmware which will remove twrp then you can fast boot twrp again but just follow that guide to the letter and you should be fine mate
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
So I go onto this website (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1697227) and download the 10.6.1.27.5 US sku (Since my build number says US on it), flash the firmware and then flash twrp? Would flashing the firmware delete the CROMI rom or its data?

Sorry to waste so much of your time man. thanks for the help.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Yes mate that's what you should do and I think it will only wipe the system apps not user apps but I would back up your apps with titanium back up just to be safe
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
Ok, so I flashed the firmware, and everything looks ok so far. So now I just need to fastboot the TWRP file you sent me. Lets hope for the best!! :D

I also noticed that it saved my data but took me off the CROMI ROM (is that expected?) Anyways, I don't care about being on the cromi rom as long as this recovery will work
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Yes that's right it will give Asus stock now fastboot twrp the reboot then boot to twrp and flash cromi
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
Ok, TWRP flashed without a hiccup so far. Ill update you if CROMI downloads ok. Thanks for the help man, I could kiss you right now (If i wasn't straight). hahaha
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Glad your sorted mate and we can settle for a manly fist bump lol
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
should I just do a factory reset before installing CROMI? or more?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
Just wipe in twrp then swipe to wipe, I think it's called factory reset but I know you just tap wipe in the first menu then swipe
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
Ok, so a great big thanks to you!! My tablet is alive and kicking now, and I plan to make a good nandroid backup before jumping into some kitkat goodness!! :D
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] gtanner00:
You're not going to get far with the recovery you have. KitKat requires a patched 2.6.3 recovery from Scanno (on the omni thread) the good news is you can use the recovery zip and flash it inside twrp 2.5 and all will be good. The new recovery can restore pre kitkat Roms fine. The bad news is that it cannot install pre kitkat Roms fresh. I would use the nandroid backup function in twrp to make a backup if the 2.5 recovery partition that way it will be dead simple to restore if needed.

If you flash the new twrp it will met you flash both omni or cm (I know it said use CWM in the thread but trust me everyone uses twrp)

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Seahorse:
I notice this is 4.2.1, when are we likely to see Kitkat on the 300T?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] royredman:
please somebody correct me if im wrong, but CROMI is created based on the stock version of Asus's TF300t stock roms. The latest stock ROM update for the TF300t is 4.2.1, so, Unless Asus gives us a 4.4 stock rom, im pretty sure the creator of CROMI won't do any AOSP 4.4 roms (kit kat). If you want a taste of Kit Kat, there are some big aosp roms out like Cyanogenmod and Omnirom available for this rom.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] robgee789:
you are right mate but i tried omni rom and there are things that dont properly (which is expected as its new) and its just not as quick or smooth as cromi
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Duckman5:
Amen to that. I'm running kit Kat on my phone because it's so much smoother than the stock sense rom from HTC, but I can't get over how smooth Cromi-X runs. Amazing work sbdags!

Went from Android 4.3 JB to KitKat on my Nexus 4. There is no wow factor in that upgrade same as there is no wow factor on an update from Android 4.2 to 4.3/4.4.

The only wow factor I had last year was when I installed Cromi-X on my TF300T.

It save me from buying a new Tablet, sbdags made my Asus as new.

So I will stick with Cromi-X until the TF300t stops working due to an hardware error.
