Did you install GAPPS?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jazzruby:
You could try the app Colors by Tim Clark.

Run the app and choose "Pick" then use the slider to dial in a color (it's very touchy, but with some finesse...)

Colors: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.citc.colors

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
Thanks for that, unfortunately it just sets the wallpaper as the colour you choose, and not having wallpaper enabled results in a black screen still

But I like the app, I`ll keep that cheers :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jazzruby:
Yea, I just checked | realized | verified that it creates a png image using screen width (e.g. 1280x1280) in /data/system/users/0/wallpaper:eek:

Not to worry, good app for plain coloured walls though, I was looking for some of them a couple days ago too
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jesesystem:

Thanks Tim for your hard work as usual, running build 16 without any issues so far; will there be the possibility of adding network traffic animation on the wifi logo as in previous roms? (where there used to be two triangles showing upload and download traffic during network usage).

Thanks and keep it up!

I am also having the same problem with not being able to open new tabs. I tried in stock browser and chrome.

I find it happens most often to picture links.......for example the link of the screen shot on post 1 will open fine if you just click in it. However if you attempt to open it in a new tab, it will fail.

I found that the only browser that doesn't have this problem is dolphin WITH jetpack installed. If you disable jetpack, it will not open the picture in the second tab.

Weird.

Looks like the latest Google map does not work on our beloved tf101 anymore. Anybody else has the problem? I suspect it is due to the neon thingy.

I remember the previous version worked fine before. It is only after the last update to version 9.0.0 when Google map stopped working. Version 9.0.0 does not even show up as update for my GS3 running slimkat.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Aliante:
Had the same problem, if you look at the latest reviews you will see that it's a common issue reported by many users.

It looks like Google has now removed the update after a while (at least for the TF101).

Uninstall version 9.0.0 and reinstall it from the Play store and you will get back version 8.4.1

Tried updating from 034 to 035 this am and it failed with an "Unable to mount /staging" error in TWRP... Haven't found a solution to this yet, any suggestions?

If this old sweetheart gets Android 5/L... That would be so great! And maybe even before some of the latest phones get it?!? I guess, I have to buy Tim a beer as well. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] thelangosta:
That error shouldn't stop it from booting. It's an error that's been around for a while but doesn't stop the tab from booting.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ricthot:
Ah I'm dumb.... Saw the error in TWRP after flashing, thought the flash failed but it actually flashed fine...... pfft... I didn't had coffee yet when I posted...

Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] CalvinH:
I uninstalled it, reinstalled it from Play Store and 9.0.0 came back. Not working.

I will try to look for and older version, as I use it a lot, and wait for Google fixing it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] snellehenk:
Same here maps starts but crashes, old version works ok.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ahecht:
Once maps updates to 9.0.0 clear the app data and reboot. That fixed the crash issue on my phone.

Hi guys, I've installed A1 SD Bench from the Play Store https://play.google.com/store/appsdetails?id=com.a1dev.sdbench

I'm yet on KatKiss#032, and here is the result for Internal memory and RAM

My actual micro SD card (a Kingston 16GB declared as class 10) reads at ~14MB/S and writes at ~ 9MB/S, so soon I'll test the others external available at my house to find one faster than i.m. for switching them (maybe at the same time of the release of the 'upcoming #036', or if only an initial Lollipop)..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] _Flea_:
Is it possible to get rid of the resizeable windows? Or at least hide the bar.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but if I zoom in or out using 2 fingers, it resizes the window.

To prevent Chrome from starting in windowed mode, read some page ago in this thread. Its a flag-problem that seemed to be solvable by manual interactions.

Got my hands on . . . . . . .

a tf300t and dock - very very good price and it seems to be in good shape too. Don't know whether to flash KITKAT yet (there are issues with versions of TWRP) that I need to read up on and to be honest I don't know how much I like KK - don't get me wrong I love the KissKat 4.4 on my tf101 but feel that KitKat has widened Googles powes. However I have boot unlocked and rooted it - so it should be ready to go.

I feel so sad to be having to say goodbye to the TF101 though - we have been through so much together and it has been such a stand-up gadget usually. i might keep it a an everyday tablet and use the tf300 to experiment with Tim's Android 5. Though 2 tablets, numerous smart phones, a laptop and a pc (and that's only me - not my OH) is starting to make me feel a tad technocompulsive

---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 PM ----------

I dirty flashed #36 and when tablet loaded desktop - I say a SU notification symbol, then my calendar advanced floating events and then the KissKat audio notification appeared and then - reboot. This happened about 7 times. Then I flashed the nandroid I had made of my system running #35 (which it had been for weeks with no problems) - and the same thing - SuperSU hashtag in notification area, KissKat audio notification symbol, my calendar updating floating events and reboot. This happened about 4 times. So I tried reflashing the last good known working ROM 35# and the same thing has occurred. I'm just wondering why the SuperSU keeps popping up at startup saying the binary needs to be updated? Could this be causing the reboots? Can I flash a better binary?

Any ideas or help would be most welcome. I know I should probably be doing a clean flash of the ROM - could someone talk me through a clean flash - is it wipe dalvik, cache, system and factory reset. Wipe dalvik and cache again, flash rom, gaps and wipe dalvik and cache and reboot?

Thanks in advance. As I type the bleeping thing is still rebooting.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] didier74:
Can you get this window asking you to update binary again?

If yes, make the update through TWRP or CWM , this is how I solved the problem

Good luck.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pattonsj:
V36 seems stable but I will unfortunetly have to flash back to the non-linaro version as Candy Crush doesn't work on this version either. Oh well, that seems to be my luck. Still love the ROM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] garyngkt:
So far so good with #036, thanks so much Tim :D

Update : feels smoother than #035 also, is it because of the VM tweak?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
There's a non linaro version of V036 too :)

Most likely yes, Slightly faster app switching and such

I could see the difference too with or without. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Theziggy:
Went through a few more dirty flashes of older non linaro versions that worked - but same result -boot loops when the desktop had loaded and notifications were being seen. Going to try one more thing before I clean wipe and flash - I'm going to flash the latest updateSupersu to see if that helps. (You'd nearly think that my littel TF101 knows that I have got a TF300 a few days ago and now is making me pay attention to it lol)

UPDATE

So - after trying to update to version #36 and getting bootloops, flashing my nandroid - still bootloops, reverting to flashing older versions of the ROM - still bootloops - I did the clean flash.

Now for my experience:-

This worked - I flashed version #36 Non Linaro and Gapps and everything booted fine and dandy. I did discover a few cons to the wipe and also to nandroid.

After wiping I went to reinstall my apps with Titanium Backup - and discovered that the Backup on my SD card was a year old - but I had did a backup before trying to install #36. Titanium Backup had reverted to storing the backup on the Internal Memory - and this had been wiped!!!

Not to be daunted I researched and discovered that Titanium Backup can extract backups from Nandroid - after some trial and error I got this to work and got (most of my apps back up and running again).

Nest thing I discovered was some of the apps - had no information/data. These were apps which created a folder in the Internal Memory for their data - e.g. I had a database app which stored associated images, databases in a folder on the Internal Memory. Again - not to be daunted I got an app which claimed to allow you to extract files and folders from a Nandroid backup. This app mounted the backup and I went searching for my database app's data - only to find after a few hours that the data was stored in the Nandroid as a 'link'!!! That's when I discovered that a Nandroid does not store any data that an app stores in the Internal Memory of the tablet, I discovered I was missing data from database apps, dictionaries, calendar, and also the DCI< was gone - all my lovely pictures were wiped.

Just to let you people know what I went through and to warn you - make sure you set Titanium Backup to store on your SD card, and to backup app specific folders from the Internal Memory (as well as the DCIM) - though I didn't search specifically for the DCIM - I will tomorrow and make sure that the pictures are actually lost - I remember seeing a folder in the Nandroid called media - maybe the DCIM is there? Fingers crossed.

Also, I have discovered that if your system gets as screwed up as mine - that Nandroids don't even work.

So, as of now I am still trying to piece data together to get my databases back (some of there are gone forever I fear), and my calendars etc.

Quite a difficult time, but I learned a lot from it and maybe you will learn a bit too.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Maps

Just checked the new version of Maps, and the issue is that their lib contains incompatible code (most likely neon)

So even if their libs should/could do a test of the neon cpu capabilities at runtime and fallback to non neon code if it doesn't list neon as supported, I'm afraid that as time goes, they'll care less and less about old devices/cpu like ours with custom roms.

Technically since JB non-neon support has been dropped.

So unless they fix it, we're stuck with the 8.x version
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Thor_Asgard:
For once, i'll try the non linaro version of the v36.

Thanks for all that !

Was it the last version of KitKat ? ^^
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rufik:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] archer100:
Maybe Tim can include maps version 8.4.1 in the gapps, and we all just benefit [emoji1]
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Matterhorn:
Goolge Maps 8.4.1 download link:

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/maps/maps-8-4-1-3-apk/

Uninstall version 9 and reinstall 8.4.1. The only problem is that you can no longer update all apps in the Playstore because version 9.0 will be installed again.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] yoh_anim:
Quick and easy way is to use titatium backup and unlink maps from the play store with it.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Phoenixct:
I tried to upgrade supersu, but it failed because it said i haven't root... flashing it from recovbery doesn't work at all. Now i'm restoring old backups and after i'll try to flash #036.

Update: Now root works; supersu wants to be updated, but update fails. If i try to write on system partition, it fails even if it says that write permission change was succesful...

update2: updating supersu from recovery removed root permission...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Theziggy:
All I know is that I flashed Rom and Gapps on a rooted tablet, downloaded and went to use Titanium Backup which told me I wasn't rooted, I then ran SuperSU which told me I would need to update - I had a chic of doing it by recovery e.g. TWRP or CWM or doing it by Internet - I chose Internet and didn't want to start the whole fastboot thing again (I was connected to the internet) and it got updated - so I tried to run Titanium Backup again and no problems. By the way - talking about problems - you should read my post - on THIS page - got it up and going again though - better than it ever was too

Awesome ROM, timduru! I haven't used my Transformer with any regularity for about a year now, and the process of unlocking, rooting, and customizing it with your ROM has renewed my interest in using it again.

Many thanks for your efforts, sir!

Lollipop

Ahhhhhhh

And yeah for losing so much time, it was actually working from the start,

just that I was using the wrong kernel / ramdisk ... doh!

Getting too old for that sh*** ;P

Now at least it boots and all and wifi is working.

Just needs time to fix all the other hardware / old proprietary binaries issues now. :)

But it's progressing, much better than not booting.
