Hi

My problem with battery drain, somehow, was kind of solved. If I "full wipe battery stats" at 100% and never EVER let it run out of juice, it would last as longer as I would want.

And

I couldn't manage, by any means, to push the ROM into the tablet, adb push didn't work. So as my problem was solved I gave up.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2367518

But now I got two bigger problems, the battery of my tablet never goes to 100%, it finishes recharging at 93% and my dock station does not recharge, doesn't matter how long I let it on the power supply. Plus the light indicator is always blinking on red.

Every key works perfectly, the pointer track too and all the USB ports aswell. I can even recharge the tablet with the dock connected, so energy seems to be flowing fine.

I was told that installing a brand new system can solve this, so I want to give it a shoot.

I was told too that this KatKiss ROM is very good, so why not?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2392087

To do that I must upgrade my recovery to this version:

I want to ask:

How do properly install KatKiss ROM?

Off-Topic Question:

Should I wait for android 4.4 KitKat

Here is some useful information:

Thank you very much!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
For your dock battery, there is a chance that the switch in the doc for the battery charge circuit changed state. If you are good with delicate work, might be worth a shot to open up the dock and give that a look. 2 screws under the rear rubber feet then it prys a part. I start from one of the back corners and work around when I have opened mine.

So, I would HIGHLY recommend upgrading to TWRP. There are a few ways to do it. If you can boot your ROM, put the TWRP.zip file from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2434422 on the /sdcard/ and flash it from recovery. REBOOT NORMALLY. If you try to reboot directly to recovery it won't work.

If you cannot boot to your ROM, you will have to use ADB to push the file to the internal directory.

If that does not work, try EasyFlasher. I have a tutorial here as well as newer versions of TWRP bundled with EasyFlasher: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...nt/31927-frederucos-guide-root-rom-tf101.html

Once you get TWRP installed, make a nandroid of what you currently have just in case.

Then wipe the following: Cache, Davlik, System, Data (note wipe data will not completley wipe the /sdcard/ partition, only the FORMAT DATA or WIPE INTERNAL will wipe the /sdcard/).

Install the KatKiss ROM and the applicable GAPPS 2nd.

Wipe caches

Reboot.

I have a thread for KatKiss for n00bs here:http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...f101-roms/38407-rom-jb-4-3-katkiss-tf101.html
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipebergami:
Hi Freduco!

I will leave any hardware approach after dealing with the software.

Here is the TWRP updated (Glad it worked)

Going to try now the system

Edit. 1

FINALLY the EasyFlasher worked!!!

I guess it was a problem with my old Recovery

Before doing that I wiped: CACHE, DAVLIK CACHE, FACTORY RESET, SYSTEM and INTERNAL.

I have flashed both:

KatKiss-4.3.1_027.zip

gapps-KatKiss-4.3_20130914.zip

But when I go to install on the TWRP there is no .zip to install.

There are several android system folders like the system is already installed, but I don't know.

Do I need to "Bootloader" or something?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipebergami:
Please help me,

I think it is the last thing I need to do
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
How is your microSD formatted?

You are using TWRP 2.2.1.4 which only supports FAT32. You will need to boot to recovery AFTER inserting the microSD. It is not hot swappable.

Also, I would recommend TWRP 2.3.2.3 or later as 2.2.1.4 does not properly support the new directory structure when flashing updates to 4.2.X and later ROMs. It is fine for initial install though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipebergami:
I am not using a microSD card,

I am flashing the KatKiss-4.3.1_027.zip and the gapps-KatKiss-4.3_20130914.zip with Easy-Flash (Its meant to be used instead of the /adb push stuff, right?)

But easy-flash isn't copying the .zip it seems it is extracting everything alread, so I don't know how to install it.

Now that everything is wiped, to install a new Recovery system, I need to do the /adb push stuff again?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Ok, you cannot use EasyFlasher to flash KatKiss because the files are not in SOS format.

EasyFlasher can flash Stock firmware (as downloaded from Asus, not unzipped) and also .sos files for recoveies.

Once you get TWRP installed, use that to install your ROM.

If you do not have a microSD, it is much easier if you get one, even a small 1-4 GB one.

Otherwise, you need to use ADB to push the ROM and GAPPS to the /sdcard/ when the tablet is in recovery (and if you are on TWRP 2.6 or newer you need to enable ADB sideload in the recovery).

Alternatively, you could flash back to stock with EasyFlasher. Then download the files into the /sdcard/. After that, flash TWRP with EasyFlasher and then boot to TWRP and install the files from the internal memory.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipebergami:
Alright! Stock worked!

Can I install the Katkiss and gapps with the TWRP without wipe Internal now its stock? Otherwise I will lose it again
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Any time you flash from any ROM to another, unless it is a newer version (say KatKiss 026 to KatKiss 027) you should ALWAYS wipe the data (factory reset).

Not doing this can cause some fragments of system data to cause instabilities (Random Reboots and Sleep Of Death).

To go from Stock to KatKiss, I would not try it without wiping Data, System, Cache and Davlik in TWRP.

Wiping the Data partition in TWRP will not actually wipe the files on the /sdcard/, it only wipes those in the /data/ partition without touching /data/media/.

However - if you choose the (depends on version of TWRP) FORMAT DATA or FORMAT INTERNAL it will wipe out the /sdcard/
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipebergami:
Before doing anything further, I recharged the both tablet and dock.

The 93% battery bug is solved, now its 100%, although the dock still not recharging.

So since I am selling the tablet I will leave it stock, the buyer may complain about battery drain, freezes or random reboots, things I had with Android Revolution HD.

The dock... I will try to contact Asus about my problem and ask a blueprint where should I find this circuit you told me about.

If you can lead me with good video tutorials or forum threads about how to open and find that circuit I would be really grateful.

Thank you for all your help and kindness Freduco !
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
Have a look at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2381186

The dock is pretty easy to open. Remove the rear rubber feet, 2 screws, and then start from a back corner and pop it open.

That board is on the left.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Filipebergami:
I opened the dock and the switch was already on, I changed to "off" and "on" again, but it still not recharging.

More than 2 hours on the power supply and red light still blinking,

What else can be done?

Anyone's front facing camera seem like it's out of perfect alignment or is this normal? It's not just a shadow I'm sure if it. http://imgur.com/oYVflP2
[Nexus 5 General] Nauxûron Mártifûr:
Mine is perfectly aligned, so I guess it is not normal. I suppose the front camera does work, and it is only a design issue.
[Nexus 5 General] n19htmare:
Does it work?

As long as the lens isn't covered, it should be 100% functional. it's held by sticky tape, if it really bothers you, you can unclip the back and move it into alignment. But if its functional and lens isn't blocked, I wouldn't worry about it.
[Nexus 5 General] Mr. Sprinkles:
Mine looks similar to yours. Doesn't affect the pictures, so I don't care.
[Nexus 5 General] BrandonPrice31:
It works perfectly. Just aesthetically it bothers me.
[Nexus 5 General] Mr. Sprinkles:
Jesus, they really like their double sided sticky tape over there at LG... Isn't the vibrator held with sticky tape too?
[Nexus 5 General] Nocturnal86:
Actually mine is a little like yours too. Guessing its "normal"? Unless im looking for it I dont see it.
[Nexus 5 General] ez12a:
Mine isnt completely center, so i'm chalking this one up to normal/within spec.
[Nexus 5 General] devoureddreams:
Perfectly centered here and I'm ocd
[Nexus 5 General] cyburke:
Not centered on mine. Damn you for pointing it out to be. :)

Does anyone else find the angle of the camera to be a bit odd? When looking at it, in Portrait mode, like for a Hangout .. The angle towards you seems to be slightly "off" - anyone else?
[Nexus 5 General] hello00:
are u really trying to find small things to complain about this phone and post it on here?
[Nexus 5 General] F123D:
Mines a tiny bit off like yours but photos come out fine so I don't care. Not going to replace something that's a non-issue for a potential real issue.
[Nexus 5 General] bluegizmo83:
I don't complain much, but I'm with you on this one... Sadly, its just something I've come to expect on smartphones now days. I never understood why everybody puts the front facing camera off-center. WHY put it on the right or left side of the phone (when holding in portrait). Placing the camera off center like that makes using the front cam for video chats annoying, because when our holding the phone in perfect alignment to see the screen, the camera isn't center on you, so you have to move the phone so that the camera will be center on you and then the screen is not. Why can't they just place the camera at the top center of the device, above or below the speaker? Or at least a lot closer to center.
[Nexus 5 General] n19htmare:
I'm sorry but I just don't see it. Because of the distance and degree of movement required (if any at all) it's really NOT an issue if the camera is off-set and not in the center of the phone.

Case in point, I just tried it. When looking straight at the headset grill and point that towards me, I'm dead center of the screen. The camera itself already takes into the account of the left offset in portrait mode.

Did you try it?

Most if not all who test this right now on the phone will see they are well centered when viewing the screen straight on...

That's why a lot of phones still off-set the camera to right or the left because it's a NON ISSUE
[Nexus 5 General] bluegizmo83:
Haven't tried it on the Nexus 5 yet (it's "Out For Delivery" so it should be delivered any moment now), but on my HTC One if I did exactly as you described by holding the phone directly in front of my face looking straight at the headset grill, my face was not centered on the screen image. I had to line my face up perfectly center with the camera lens for it to show my face centered on the screen. This was with the phone held in one hand at a comfortable distance for video chat.
[Nexus 5 General] bioyuki:
Mine is off center as well. First thing I noticed when I got the phone. It seems to be working fine so I won't RMA it but it does bug the crap out of me when I look at it.
[Nexus 5 General] bbedward:
Looks center to me
[Nexus 5 General] sarshadd:
mine is off center too- to the bottom right. doesn't effect pictures.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mdrv500:
I think my base band got updated to the latest T-Mobile when I flashed a de-bloated T mobile ICS rom. Not sure if this is the case as I am S-ON and am not sure if it's possible for an unsigned rom to flash the baseband, but whatever. Was wondering if there are any users out there who have stayed on Telus stock ICS and what their baseband is. Was having some radio issues and wanted to try and flash stock baseband. Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Which one did you flash?
[HTC Amaze 4G] mdrv500:
I'm on the latest T-Mobile I believe 1.14.550L.17DC. For all I know this is the Telus ICS baseband but I was having volume issues with the earpiece being too loud even at lowest setting. I do have control over the volume, unlike all the CM based ROMs, I just feel like the earpiece volume is a bit too high compared to what I remember it being when the phone was bone stock. Just wanted to see if I was on the "wrong" radio. I have no issues regarding voice and probably none in regard to data (haven't checked). Just volume. From what I've heard many people who are not on T Mobile have flashed the lattest T mobile radio for improvements. Thing is I'm S-ON so now I figured the radio could not be updated regardless of what ROM I flashed unless it was signed official Telus. Maybe not? Tried De Bloated T Mobile ROM and Telus Rooted ROM and both work well. I'm really just curious at this point I guess. If I'm not on the right radio I'm not sure I'm willing to go S-OFF and start flashing stuff just because my earpiece is a bit too loud. Just would like to know.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Post a screen shot

Can you post a screen shot of your baseband? or type it in?

Would help. Also, having a slightly louder volume isnt so bad, you can turn the volume down manually..

:cowboy:
[HTC Amaze 4G] mdrv500:
1.14.550L.17DC Latest T mobile. The lowest volume setting is pretty loud so being able to control volume doesn't mean much. It's not unbearable but it's seems significantly louder than stock so that's sort of why I'm looking at going back to stock or possibly going S-OFF to flash radios. The stock telus ICS zip will not install from bootloader. It either needs stock Telus gingerbread installed as a base or an earlier radio or something. Installing stock gingerbread (executable) requires an hboot downgrade (it checks hboot) and possibly a radio downgrade as well. At this point I may just stay where I am but it wouldbe nice if I could try the stock ICS radio. I was also wondering if it's even possible to flash the baseband when I install a custom ROM when I'm S-ON?
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
S-OFF Super CID

I would definately S-off it really helps. chat with @ravike14 he can help you thru it.

If you s-off and super cid you should be able to flash the firmware without issue.

I'm not sure about the baseband thru custom rom. There should never be a firmware upgrade in a custom rom.

Poeple should also warn someone if it does.

I was upset that a certain rom I flashed had a modified recovery and it wasnt mentioned in the op.

Can you send/post your build.prop file? There are some settings that can be controlled there.

:cowboy:

[HTC Amaze 4G] mdrv500:
Thanks for the info. I wound up going the s-off route and flashed a t mobile stock ruu which worked out fine. The volume issue I believe was my mistake. Rather than making a regular phonecall I was making a *888 call which was an automated message giving account balance with a certain Telco. For whatever reason this message was way loud. Regular voice calls seemed to be fine. So l went to evervolve 3.3 but the battery drain was real bad so now I run energy rom and everything is great. If 10.2 ever gets call audio fixed I would consider going back to that as it was soooo smooth even with a couple bugs
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Good Job!

Glad to hear everything worked out.

Evervolve is looking like a very good rom!

Jellybean sense is in the works and it's really smooth and snappy, but has a lot of issues right now, and the kernel is proving to be a very difficult problem.

To get back to the original question, I think the design of the P6 is really stylish. Everyone I know has asked what it is and has been astounded it is not an expensive high end offering from what they call major players, eg, Apple, Samsung and HTC.

The top flows beautifully to the bottom where it curves round back to the top. What is not to like?:good:

Once I talked to a G615 user that has the same SoC inside it and he told me that when he turned the 2D hardware acceleration the phone just fly away, it's realy faster. To test he openned 24 tabs on the browser and the phone didn't crashed once, said it got slower but no crashes or lags. He also played a mid range game and it worked flawlessly.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] nARDOs:
I ll give feedback when back home.

Compared to my HTC desire X the sound is very bad, at least the headphone. I thought upgrading firmware will help so i upgraded to b116 but that didn t help.

I read somewhere in this forum that deleting system/etc/audio/codec-folder will help but im a bit pessimisrtic about this method.

I havn t tried camera yet.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] BluntP6:
Deleting audio codec folder didnt work for me, but if youre rooted, go with root explorer etc. to /cust/ folder, and find your carriers folder. If your carrier is not listed, go to /cust/channel/ and select your region. Find local.prop file, its inside "prop" folder. If there is no prop folder or local.prop file, i think your volume is best possible. Edit local prop like this:

Insert hashtag (#) in front of

ro.config.hw.security_volume=?

so it should be

#ro.config.hw.security_volume=?

AND do the same for

ro.config.ce_authenticate=1

This is very easy method, and worked for me. If this doesnt work, do that for every local.prop you find from /cust/ folder, some of them does not have this string, leave them alone. You can also delete codec folder if this doesnt work, it doesnt make you any troubles.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Truck'n Hemi:
Nice to know...thanks for the feedback.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Fedds:
I wish I could like it more. It would obviously be much better with NFC, IR, LTE. I also read that the system is emulated so it's not genuine. The back cover is very fragile too. In my opinion, the UI is not as attractive as iOS 7's or Android 4.4's. The phone could have been more recognized and supported. But daaaamn, the phone is so cheap for its specifications and design. 360 euros! It is also very fast, running 4.2.2 Android. I am please with it actually. It looks nice, feels nice, performs nice. It has its own disadvantages, but it's nice.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Schvveps:
It was stated and demonstrated that we don't have emulation. It's a proper android os running on our device. Also on some blog, or wherever was posted from interview with Huawei's chief director that with some update there will be enabled LTE module on P6. Imo, the looks of IOS have become so annoying and boring that this UI feels way better and more attractive than Apple's worn UI.
