Noticed that we have Photosphere in the stock camera app....but it FCs for me. Anyone else get it working?

UPDATE: seems to work OK with this Googe Edition version of the camera -- http://www.androidcentral.com/get-photosphere-non-nexus-devices-google-edition-camera-app

UPDATE, PART 2: ah isn't that interesting -- the GE camera app install doesn't seem to survive a reboot. :( Guess it needs a bit of surgery to overwrite the stock camera.

Wow Tim just wow!!

Added a line with Nova to mention the change in rendering. As a Nova user I want to have it working again with wallpaper and at max speed. Hope they change it or its back to Trebuchet for me.

Thx man
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tittah:
I can't get Trebuchet to render my wallpaper (it shows only in normal mode). Is there a setting that I should change?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Trebuchet was already showing my wallpaper as default with 2nd wallpaper mode selected for "Disable system wallpaper rendering"
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] just lou:
I'm still using 016. Can someone explain what the deal is with Nova and wallpaper using 017? Does it work, does it not work, will it work but have lag now?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] statickiwi:
Wow I cannot believe how fast this version of KatKiss is on my tf101. It feels like a brand new tablet. I really appreciate your hard work in bringing new life to this machine!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
KatKiss as installed gives me a black background when i use Nova. Meaning Nova works but with black in the back :crying:

I did not see lag caused by it though. I now switched to Normal in display settings and can use Nova again (Wallpaper shows again).
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
There is now an option to disable system wallpaper rendering, so if your chosen launcher performs its own internal wallpaper rendering, then wallpaper will work fine with this option - if not you will end up with a black background in the place of wallpaper

You can still enable system rendering and use any launcher with working wallpaper, but by disabling it and using a launcher that uses internal rendering, it eliminates that nasty lag we get with Phablet UI

For example, Trebuchet uses internal rendering, and with system rendering disabled, I still have wallpaper and no lag at all on the homescreens

With Apex and I guess Nova, you will have to use System rendering and put up with the normal lag on the homescreens OR disable system rendering and have a black background instead

It's exactly the same as #16, but with an option to make things smoother by disabling the system rendering if you wish
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] just lou:
OK. Thanks. I've never had an issue with lag using Nova, and I'm not about to switch to the very limited Trebuchet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Yea, we should give Nova and Apex devs a shout and see if they would consider adding internal rendering in their launchers, Im an Apex guy myself but Trebuchet does fine for what I use it for really
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
*facepalm*

I just had to reinstall the ROM (#016) because I tryed some serious overclokcing which resulted in SoD and the tablet wouldn't boot anymore. Deleting Dalvik etc wasn't successfull.

Just finnished an restored 20GB Backups...and now I read: New Version. Wahhhhhh!

I dont like the meaning of installing a ROM over another. Time has shown, this can lead to issues, even if it shouldn't. anyway. Will flash it over this time. Want my GPS Quicktile! :)

In between: Next Launcher still runs awesome.

Ps.: Thread topic still says #016. Or should there be the stable to be read?

has anyone noticed headphone cut off (completely not working) on #17, after a while? When I flashed it, sound was coming through headphones and all of the sudden after few hours it stopped coming through headphones. Although it did come from built in speakers, but even after few restarts and reinstalling #17, it still didnt come back. I went back to stable #16 and sound through headphones is back.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] NiHaoMike:
Just installed build 17 and while the ext4 and dock issues I'm having weren't solved, the wallpaper change did seem to speed things up a little.

Hi Timduru, i seem to be getting ramdom fc's in google plus as well as reported in earlier threads, i am attaching a logcat which i produced as specified in your reboot or crash procedure, hope it might help you out.

Thanks as always for the hard work..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mattgren:
I've been using Nova without noticeable lag for sometime now. I've not really noticed much improvement with wallpaper rendering disabled.

perhaps some of the lag relates to other differences in setup...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
Might be, it's because your dock is damaged? My dock works flawless. Right away Ive been working on in for about 6 hours. No problem.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
The rom has a built in MRS that will activate increased performance when triggered ;)

Ah yeah and you also need to sing a lullaby every night to your TF101.

1640 ;)

See post 2/wallpaper or changelog for v17.

Now we know that Nova and Apex don't have internal rendering at least ;)

Weird as a few said it was earlier,

So basically as explained in post 2 and before:

If you see a black wallpaper and want it back and that you were happy before with your launcher speed,

just switch wallpaper mode to normal in Settings => Display

That would mean that you deactivated the default rom setting in trebuchet.

Go to Trebuchet Settings and check 'Wallpaper Quick render'

Hmmm, seems to crash in sync / sqllite ...

I only got one crash after installing G+ myself.

None since then.

I remember I got crashes on my phone a few months back though,

it was when I had the picture & contact sync activated.

I'd suggest that you uninstall G+

then reinstall

and make sure that you uncheck the 'Keep your address book up to date' and 'Improve Suggestions' on the 1st setup page

Then disable Backup your Photos / uncheck on the 2nd page.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Theziggy:
Very impressed by the noticeable increase in smoothness with this new ROM - all hail TimDuru.

My AnTuTu score is not good but then I am just running the ROM in standard mode with no overclocking etc as I am not a gamer.

Does overclocking etc. affect the battery much? TBH I don't know what most of the options in the Performance tab actually do (DOH)

But once again - great ROM Mr Tim

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] woti23:
you don't have to reflash

which vm is used is stored in :

/data/property/persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib

one of the ways to change that:

boot to recovery

wipe dalvik-cache + cache

mount data

then use adb command

adb pull /data/property/persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib

use a text editor to replace the content of the file - it should only contain: "libdvm.so" (without quotes)

adb push persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib /data/property/persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib

then reboot and let dalvik-cache re-create
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] edd080:
Thanks Tim, disabled the autobackup from both G+ and also disabled G+ photos from the sync settings in my Google account, no crashes so far, do you think this will be fixed in the future or is it something from Google's side?

Thanks once again.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] inigoml:
Hi Tim.

Only major issue I've found in this build17 is that my TF101 does not detect my headphones and sound still goes through main speakers when inserting jack. Perhaps it's related this this change.

I've not tested build16... I will give a try.

Enviado desde mi Transformer TF101 mediante Tapatalk
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Most likely that change yeah, what kind of headphones is it ? big or small ?

I think I saw someone else report a similar issue, so I''ll revert that change in 018 see if that was it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] beaufort:
I've got the same problem using my in ear headphone. A fix would be appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] inigoml:
Probably, since I have tested with build 16 and no problem with headphones. Anyway, somebody has reported that with build 17 headphones worked for a while and then stopped. In my case they didn't work although I played with them only at the night. :(

My headphones are small. In fact they are those coming with my iPod mini.

Thank you, Tim.

By the way, if you prefer this bugs to be reported in some kind of bugtracking, don't doubt telling us. :good:

Headphone troubles.

I have tested the headphones and it does not detect any headphone small or big. The headphone mic is still not working since pre-KatKiss EOS ROM, but now with no detection at all it is logical.

I have a spare earheadphone with mic that I offer to send to you, so you can make the necessary changes without being blind.

Greetz.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Flash that on top of 017: http://downloads.timduru.org/android/tf101/K.A.T/KatKiss/misc/4.4.2_017_InputDetectRevert.zip

or revert to 016 or wait for 018,

easy ;)

Were the spare headphones working on stock rom ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] treehugger38294:
I agree completely; I sold my TF101 but before I sold it, with KatKiss 4.3.1, it was smoother than my TF300 with CyanogenMod! I was amazed by that.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrWBucket:
Just flashed InputDetectRevert. That fixed my headphone issue. Thank you for the quick response! By the way, this ROM is amazing! Fast and stable, does everything I need it to. Thanks again!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] NiHaoMike:
It's buggy, but since replugging it or doing a full reboot gets it working again, it can be worked around by reinitializing it every time the device exits standby.

The dock has worked just fine with ARHD 3.6, intermittently has the problem in KK 4.3, and always seems to have the issue in KK 4.4.

If someone knows how to reinitialize the dock (without a reboot) from the command line, I could code my own workaround for my buggy dock.

I confirm the headphone jack issue. The patch fixes it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mgeniusm:
nandroid backup

A good practice is when you have your transformer or any other device for that matter working how you want is to do a nandroid backup. Then if anything goes wrong you can get back to where you were before. I myself do a backup after every update. In case you don't know how to make a backup you go to recovery/backup, you then have all your apps backed up and if you wish to do a clean install you can use titanium backup pro to restore data from nandroid backup, making sure not to restore system apps!

Now if you knew all that just ignore what I wrote and wonder why you didnt do it !
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kgb545:
My youtube app keeps force closing. I did a full wipe, and flashed #017, and now dirty flashed *018, but still the same issues. The youtube app starts just fine, but when i tap on any vidoe, it starts loading the video and then it force closes.

Anyone else having the same issues ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] just lou:
If you only overclock to 1200, you won't notice much difference in battery life, but will get a noticeable increase in performance. Once you go above 1200, the performance increase is much less noticeable unless you're running benchmarks. If you're not familiar with the other settings, just leave them as is.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Theziggy:
Thanks Just Lou (have thanked you too)

Where can I find out what the other settings do? - I'm Windows toilet-trained, but a Linux noob, I was learning how to build apps a while ago and then started learning Java to augment my app building capabilities - but it fizzled out so hope to kick start it again in the New Year, and as for Linux I can follow written blow by blow instructions but that's about all.

I'll try the overclock and AnTuTu it

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] orion2323:
Thanks Timduru

Awesome work Timduru.....your roms are amazing, have brought my TF101 back to heavy use

It feels very fast, just love it.

Previous to version 4.4.2 (16), I was using a version for 4.3 (.24 I believe...) and that ROM was perfect for me

After upgrading to 4.4.2 (16) I'm experiencing issues with my 64GB XSD NTFS card, not recognized by android unless mounted with Paragon

Also, Diceplayer crashes when I try and play a movie

...Just reporting :)

This ROM feels faster that 4.3, however, I'll go back to 4.3 since I didn't have any issues under that one.

Thanks for being around and doing this......you're very talented
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jcustodio:
Thanks for this fantastic ROM, it's just great!

I have only 1 problem, my back cam doesn't work. The front cam it's Ok, but the back one it's only a black screen. Is this a bug or something I did wrong?

In the other hand, I can't find the settings for Trebuchet launcher... Where are they? :)

Thanks

Ofc I got a 9Gb NANDbackup and got a titanium backupcollection of 40GB. Unfortunatly outsourced it from extSD to extHDD, which wasn't at hand. (Still isn't because I'm at a friend). Appreciate your advice anyway and would advice anyone to follow it.

Still wondering if there was any way (if happens again) to reset the cpu clock speed from recovery? Or change it via ADB instead of reinstalling the ROM / Backup?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
Have to say it...: Who cares for scores as long as the tab is more responsive and smoother that others with much higher score? Instead developers should start to optimize theire apps instead of trusting in increasing CPU speeds.

Anyway: To gain a faster system it's often a good idea to raise the minimum CPU-frequ. instead of increasing the maximum speed. To set the max speed to 1200 is a good boost as said and wont hurt - still I'd advice to increase the minimum speed too. This will affect the battery but will also bring some reaction time for the tab.

Peace

Same here. That dolphin work around wasn't a solution for me at all. I have to admin the browser is pretty fast... but it crashes a lot and the flash handling isn't working too cool for me neighter. :/

Actually I don't understand the full youtube problem at all.

I installed #016 restored my backups (flash included) and flash worked fine.

Then I read about flash problems, went to my browser and flash wasnt working anymore... WTF?!

Then I tryed dolphin, got annoyed and deinstalled it.

Then I reinstalled the hacked 11.1 flash from the forum and flash works again.

I'll stick with the stock browser for now. Can someone point me to a thread / blog / whatever where the flash problem is explained? I still dont get it at all...

That's what I observed too. Even if we are talking about timings, that human beeings can barely imagin.. its a bit like turing a car from 0 to 100. Ofc if the car already runs at 50mph it will be faster at 100, as if you start at 0. That's the trick.

I'm running on 400 min, 1200 max. Just changing it, when I'm traveling and there's no charger in sight for about 10 hours or more. :)

I also canunderline the statement, that the boost from 1200 to 1400 isn't too big. Might do the trick with benchmarks, but not in real speed. I tested some games and the win in fps is ... well.. is there one? ;)

Cheers

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] just lou:
Agreed. I see no real world difference between 1200 and 1400. Overclocking the weak GPU would be more beneficial. Although we don't have user GPU overclocking, I believe timduru has it increased in the kernel.

Hi Tim, I wonder if it would be possible to make the biggest navigation bar to adjust the image when connected to the display via HDMI.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
Don't owe the game but you might want to turn on the GPU force rendering and the 4xMSAA in the developer options. Also you might want to try speeding up or down the CPU clock about 200MHz. That's what helped for me in some games with glitchign issues so far.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
As to read only one single post above: a REAL format / wipe could solve the issue. As in most cases when problems appear that not all users have... Do a backup (titanium / nand), go to recovery (preferred twrp 2.6.3.x) and go give all partitions a format (media / data too). Flash ROM, flash gapps, clean cache and reboot. Think this will do.

Yeah google didn't really care much about the interaction/migration of the default Browser and the new chromium webkit that is used in 4.4

Things like history/debug and such are borked, a few other bugs like inline videos when not fullscreen and such.

So things that are in Labs were definitely not tested either by them it seems.

018 will bring back History and Debug.

For the bar glitch when using the labs QuickControls / full screen features, not sure.

We'd most likely have to migrate it to use immersive mode instead.

I might see also to make an additionnal setting to be able to use QC while not going automatically fullscreen when they are activated.
