I'm having difficulty forcing win8 to use them. I tried doing a manual driver update, and it rejects it saying the newest version is already installed.

After that, I tried deleting the device, but upon rebooting it's there again without prompting me for which driver I want.

Alternatively, when it's in APX mode, it doesn't recognize the driver files as applicable.

hmmmmm

Edit:

Looks like i was deleting the device, but not the driver. That's what I get for skimming my Japanese OS...

Anyway, now it has no driver, and won't install the drivers from the easyflasher thread. A step closer though!

Edit2:

Nope wait, it's being sneaky and reinstalling itself again somehow

Id install Win 7 in VMWare, that's how I do it

But in theory you should be able to put the TF into APX mode, goto device manager, right click the ! missing driver, or if it already installed one, that driver, and manually update it from the extracted universal naked driver folder

Will continue to hunt.

I don't have a win7 install handy so the VM is a no-go at the moment.

In theory yeah.. but neither are working.

Clicking the missing driver -> doesn't find the driver

Clicking the bad driver -> newest driver is already installed.

Copy the recovery blob to your internal memory (/sdcard) then open a terminal (root su)

Rename your recovery to match the above (recovery.blob)

Normal reboot to flash/install

is this of any use for us?

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jazzruby:
Did you do a 'normal' reboot (not to recovery) after writing the blob.

Maybe try a shutdown/restart.

The blob is written to the 'staging' partition and requires a 'normal' reboot to then be expanded to the recovery partition.

You should then (hopefully) be able to reboot to recovery

HTH.

Brightness change from AUTO kills it.

I am running 4.4.4_030, gapps_katkiss-4.4.3_20140605.

This was happening on 4.4.2_023c as well. I did not see this on 4.3_020.

Whenever I adjust brightness off of auto the screen goes blank and I cannot wake it up. Reboot goes through splash screen then blanks out as well. The only way I can get back in is to reflash. Needless to say I've been flashing a lot lately as I keep forgetting to not adjust brightness.

Any thoughts on fixes or a way to capture a log without being able to get back in after it happens?

Thanks!

Flashed V31 tonight, just flashed ROM and Gapps and wiped Cache and Dalvic and rebooted - TF101 booted but on swiping to open rebooted very shortly afterwards. This continued for some time. Managed to get to recovery and flashed Rom and Gapps and wiped again only for the same thing to happen. This happening to anyone else?

non-linaro build 31

Hi Tim,

Can you build a non-linaro zip for version 31? Don't know if it's this build or if it's Linaro, but I can never reboot more than once before hanging. Then I can only recover by wiping the system partition and reflashing the ROM. Thanks.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Theziggy:
@ anamnisia - Thanks to all who have answered - I remember having the same problem when flashing to V30, and just rebooted until it 'stuck'.. In fact V30 was RR and slowing down quite a lot and I would have to reflash the ROM and it would be OK again.

@ JerryGNYC - Will look into the md5 thing

@ cbrox - can you explain about 'previous kernel settings

to those who have flashed V31 - what's it like?

I got a nandroid backup of V30 restored but still crashing - so flashing ROM again and still rebooting.

Thanks in advance peeps :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
Mine is working fine.

Guess your download is corrupted. Just try to download again or check md5. Also I would always suggest to factory reset, wipe and datawipe when updating a ROM. No matter if people keep telling that a dirty flash will do too.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cbrox:
If your using a kernel tuner(i use trickster mod) app or the built in kernel performance settings, the new rom may not like your existing settings when you dirty flash.

If I were you; i would do a complete wipe and clean fresh install just to see if it will load and hold stable. Just the basic rom, do not restore any of your apps. If it does then it's something in your nandroid causing the issue. If it won't then you need to fall back to the last stable build that works for you...cbrox

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] edd080:
Hi to all i just updated from V30 to 31 wiping only sys and cache as usual, throughout the day i would experience random freezes on nearly any particular app i would use; be it youtube, tapatalk, or copying files in es filexplorer. It happens randomly and without warning, I thought the problem might be that i need to do a clean wipe and flash again, i did a clean wipe flashed V31 and gapps.

I experienced around 3 freezes till now which do not let me do anything pressing the back button or home button does nothing, i have to give the tablet a force reset through the power button, i am not sure if taking a logcat exactly after rebooting would help but when it freezes iam unable to do anything, can anyone help me out please?

Thanks for any help...

I did, but just in case I did the process one more time, with a proper full shutdown and startup.

How can I enable wallpaper rendering by Nova and not by system?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jpmccarthy:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] edd080:

Whelp.

I've now got a brand new install of windows 7 on a VM on my brand new install of Ubuntu. When the tablet is in Android it connects to the VM great! hooray! or so I thought...

When I boot it up in APX mode, transformer APX will display in the USB devices for about 3 seconds, and then drop. Does anyone have any idea what is going on here, or how to resolve it?

If I can't get this to work, I guess it's on to creating a win7 VM on the win8.1 box.... sigh.

Update on Ziggy's Trials and Tribulations

Update on (My) problems

So - my restored image was crashing so I flashed V30 (linaro) again and it booted up and then rebooted. I then asked myself why it should get to the 'swipe to open' screen and then reboot.

And - I think I have the answer. I have a calender/diary app called Pimlical/A which is an android version of the old Palm app Datebk. I have it on my phone and have been running it on my TF101 with no problems.

I do know however that when I waken or reboot the TF101 that if I look at recent apps screen that Pimlical/A is the only app there. So I thought to myself that it must run at boot-up and at waken-up. Browsing the Pimlical/A forum I discovered that it does run in order to update floating events and alarms (it is a very sophisticated diary app - anyone remember Datebk ?) - in fact on earlier versions of KatKiss a small screen could be glimpsed at startup saying 'updating floating events' which was obviously a Pimlical message.

Now I do know that when I first changed to the linaro version from V29, that I had problems with reboots after the flash and had to reflash on several occasions before the Rom stopped rebooting. Especially on V31 linaro - when it went to the home page - the KatKiss Audio icon appeared briefly then A black page with a Pimlical heading appeared then --- you guessed - crash. In truth though versions 29 and 30 did stabilise and I thought no more of it with those versions just thought the Rom took a while to bed in.

I had been preparing to do a full wipe install but before doing so I tried flashing the non-linaro V30, it flashed and then when starting the home screen the Pimlical 'updating floating events' appeared briefly onscreen (as it used to do) and so far the tablet hasn't crashed since (early days I know)

Anyone think my reasoning is right and why?

I see a few other forum members are having some RR problems too with V31. Maybe my problem is with linaro?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Chinaboy5216:

Similarly for Nova.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] prog19:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] thelangosta:
I'm in the same category as Gary. My tf went bonkers shortly after I finished setting it up. I walked away and had a SOD and then every time it slept(even after I bumped the minimum cpu speed) it would SOD. Just changing the governor would cause a reboot and eventually it rebooted to trebuchet instead of Launcher and I couldn't even find the Launcher after that. Seems to have become corrupted with all the reboots. I ended up just restoring a nandroid for now. Guess I need to get that fsync zip before I try again. Can I flash it in the same session as the rom and gapps?

I notice I am offered an option between Launcher and Trebuchet - what Launcher is this? Google Launcher? I know Trebuchet.

One thing noticed so far is that Boat Browser (both the standard and the tablet versions) fail to open links in a new tab - it claims it can't connect as if there is no wi-fi, but it opens links in the same tab OK. Can anybody replicate this?

Kitkat is sweet! Big improvement over 4.3 IMHO. Great work Tim!

One question: in the fipo it says: ext4 supported. Is that: supported out of the box or supported after some additional work? I have a microSD formatted with an ext4 partition which used to work on a different rom that supported ext4. My extsd is recognized, but my ext4 isn't.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] blackice000:
All I can say is....WOW!

Timduru is a genius and is more responsive than most developers.

I went from Honeycomb/Prime 2.1.1 from Roach (great ROM BTW!) directly to KatKiss 4.4.2! Always a bit angst ridden, this type of update/upgrade.

Mostly painless!

I can echo some other folks wish for the TabletUI, but understand Google wants to abandon that tree.

Would it be possible to simply move the Battery/Wifi/Clock/etc from the top-right to the bottom right? I like having the screen real estate AND the

icons and info.

What do you all think??

Hey Tim,

good work (once again). I really like the new look. Unfortunatly I got some issues. Maybe you got an idea:

- GPS quick tile is not showing in quick menu

- The email widget keeps showing already read mails (whilest it should only show unread mails - combinated view)

- WLAN symbol isn't showing activities (just connected or not)

Thats for that. I got a suggestion, which I already wanted to point out for other Versions:

- If you turn on immersive mode, when docked, you are loosing the ability to kill an app by long pressing the back button. Is there a way to make the dock-back-button long pressable and having the same function like the soft-back-button? Or is some kinda polling preventing it? I'd really like to get rid of the bottom nav bar, but I do love to kill my apps too much. ;)

- The other thing would be, to put the text% into the battery symbols instead of having it next to it. Dunno why, but I like a minimal look.

[MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION]: I saw the Dev option to turn the runtime from dalvik to apt. I recently read some post suggesting that apt will boost performance. Is that true? My understanding of the java environment is pretty low. I'm afraid to turn apt on to test it. I'm afraid to damage something. I just finished re - setting up my tab with 4.4.2. even though I got backups I'd like to save me the time to restore.

So is it save to switch to apt runtime and are there any benefits yet?

Fwiw, titanium backup restores are technically not a clean wipe if you are restoring data. Even just restoring apps only can cause problems for some people with some apps. I thankfully have never run into trouble restoring data but I haven't had time to flash 31
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
That was pretty much irony. I guess the others just also pretend to did a clean install - but haven't. I don't want to be the boohooman here now, just helping. Still: This working and parallel not working discussions on same devices is driving informatically wisdom ad absurdum. Also it's taking Tims work into a bad light even though it could be caused by users faults only. Think about it...

For now I stick with: "You are doing it wrong!"

Well your post before mine was i suppose pretty ironic too which makes us square. In mentioning that iam putting Tim in any bad light is very unfair of you to say that; this is a forum where people have the right to post the good things and the problems they encounter with a ROM. I have been using Tims Roms ever since he was with teameos if i remember well and never had any problems. Just because I encountered a problem and posted it in this thread does not mean iam shedding any bad light on Tim at all.

And for your information yes i did perform a full wipe which cleaned my data, system and cache. I did not use any Titanium backup to restore my apps but plain downloading from playstore, and running on kernel 116 V31 is working fine for me till now, no freezes.

I did not ask for criticism when i posted my problem but for help or maybe someone else who was experiencing the same problems.

Thank you for your help anyway.
