SlimKAT Standard + Extreme Power Packs for TF300T released !

SlimKAT Power Packs

​

I've re-packaged original SlimKAT Power Pack init.d scripts (Browser2RAM, FSync disabling & ZipAlign) into two flashable .zip files to boost system performance of SlimKAT :p In addition to them there are all ASUS live wallpapers coming from latest ASUS ROM for TF300T (DayScene + MyWater 1 & 2), AdBlock is included and when flashing these packs, filesystem of your device is automatically tuned (see details below ;))

-> Standard Power Pack for TF300T : contains AdBlock and Browser2RAM + ZipAlign scripts while ext4 filesystem tuning sets data journaling ON for /data but tunes /system and /cache too :good:

-> Extreme Power Pack for TF300T : contains AdBlock and Browser2RAM + ZipAlign scripts too and in addition it turns FSync OFF (WARNING : this one can cause data corruption...) while ext4 filesystem tuning sets data journaling OFF for /data (

combined with FSync OFF; which means that this pack is mainly intended for benchmarking sessions purposes

!), it tunes /system and /cache too :highfive: It features GPU Tweaks : GPU 2D is forced AND software rendering is disabled ! :cool:

The main purpose of the first pack is to safely improve the user experience on your device while raising improper system shutdown tolerance...

...the main purpose of the second one is to max out system performance regardless to system stability !

PREREQUISITE

: Please perform a full NANDROID backup from recovery before flashing it !

DISCLAIMER

: I will never ever be responsible for any damages you do to your device !

ALL CREDIT GOES TO AND ONLY TO

:

-> [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] (this pack is based on his one... thank you !)

-> [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] & [MENTION=5123642]lj50036[/MENTION] from CROMBi-kk TEAM (FSync init.d script is coming from CROMBi-kk installer ;))

-> me :D

INSTALLATION

: Just flash it AFTER a full NANDROID backup, then just wipe cache/dalvik and reboot to system... ;) You can use it with any kernel : embedded CM / GEASS / GRIMLOCK !

Downloading the update and installing today. I love this ROM on my phone. Can't wait to have it on my tablet too!

Any way we can delete system apps with this ROM? *figured it out*
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Thank you for giving it a try :good: I truly hope that you will be satisfied enough to use it for some time... in my opinion, it's actual dock support is a significant drawback... i'll try to fix it ASAP...

Yes, you can delete system app easily by using 'Slimizer', it's located in settings -> 'SlimCenter'... third tab :)

I don't have the dock so that doesn't bother me at all. Smoothest 4.4.2 ROM for me so far. Thank you!!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] bcombel:
Well I got it installed which without any problems. Still setting it up but so far I really like it but so far I have found two issues(one which has been reported) 1. Autorotation not working 2. Ext SD card is not recognized. Is there a fix or something I can do for the SD card? It is in ex-fat format. Autorotation is not really that big of an issue but other than those two things I am liking it.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Thank you for reporting back :good: I'll update the know bugs list by adding explicitely the one about the dock SD card which cannot be fixed on your side because i've disabled its support in order to build the ROM (there was a fatal build error about it and i'm working on it to fix it up... )

I'm currently working hard on :

-> dock support in a global way because since KitKat and from a few time 'asusdec' has been replaced by 'healthd' in CM tree : it was not working properly because of an incompatibilty of it with KitKat (It was ok until latest JellyBean release). This is a huge development move so i have to say it is difficult to implement it when porting a ROM like i do by using CM tree; 'heathd' is a new daemon for KitKat that manage battery status for example and 'the move' may be implied when considering the partial dock keyboard support in my port... dock SD card will be fixed up soon i believe...

-> autorotation because at this time i have not a clue why it is not working ... it should but it does not and i believe this feature is really appreciated by users when undocking their device, isn't it ;)

I think that i will release ROM updates on a 2 weeks schedule basis for the moment and i would like to say that any constructive idea on how to deal correctly with all kind of confirmed bugs in my port will always be greatly appreciated :)

Kind regards

Just to clarify on the SD card issue. I have the problem on the SD card that goes in the tablet itself as I don't have a dock. I don't know if that makes any difference. Thanks

It is strange because microSD card is working for me (32 GB fat32), so correct me if i'm wrong but you are using a microSD larger than mine, and with a different filesystem than mine too... anyway, YES you can fix it on your side ;) => i saw that you're using exFAT so you need a custom kernel that supports it... i don't know if there is any for our device (AOSP). You might be interested in reading THIS perhaps...

Yes i am using exfat but i am about to format my card for fat32. Oh and thanks for that link. I have a better understanding of the different file systems now. Thanks for the help. I will report back.

Nice. Cherry pick https://github.com/omnirom/android_...mmit/4961689c048327b1a619112163aa272ddc810360 and see if it fixes rotation..
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Beta 2 released ;)

I've just released Beta 2 ;)

First of all i would like to thank you for having downloaded my port and also for having reported back, many bugs have been fixed ! :good:

I'll do my best to make SlimKAT run great on our device !

Here is the changelog

:

-> auto rotation : fixed ! :victory: auto rotates display when undocked and do not when docked :good:

-> dock : all TF300T's special keys are working ! :highfive: (but expanded desktop is still not available => 'back', 'home' and 'menu' hardware keys are overrided by touch display ones...); SD card is working ! :cool: (dock slot one... microSD tablet slot was already ok =>

exfat support added

!).

Dock battery status display still missing...

-> removed embedded superuser as it was not properly building => Beta 2 does not ship with any superuser app, you'll have to flash one from recovery (BTW i'll update my TWRP build now built along with SlimKAT sources...)

-> removed nova launcher, dash clock and some other stuff : you'll tell me if you would like some of them back...

-> added bash, htop, lsof, nano, powertop AND exfat support ;) (i've not tested this last...)

->

TODO : dock battery display support :confused: and expanded desktop...

If you'te interested in my port, please try it out and kindly report back, thank you !

Have a nice day ;)

Sent from my TF300T

NOTE : Special thanks to every early beta tester :)

EDIT : Oops if forgot to mention that Beta 2 kernel has NFS / CIFS support embedded into it (no modules) ;) but you might prefer to try another AOSP custom kernel like [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] GRIMKERN's one or [MENTION=4972193]ebildude123[/MENTION] GEASS's one...
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Ramrod421:
So I after flashing I downloaded SuperSU and flashed it. I still don't have root access. What gives? It was working before I flashed everything over.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] GibonXL:
As for DSP, it's there, but Google Launcher didn't show it, so I switched to some other launcher.

I think they added an option to colur customise the navigation bar. Great, no need for xposed here :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] residentorca:
Thanks ne0zone75, 4.6 running well after dirty flash. I appreciate your continued development and hopefully dock battery status will work eventually. Wish you success in getting your tablet's bootloader unlocked. Asus support can be slow as molasses but you probably know that.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Well... thanks ! FYI it will take more time than expected for dock battery display status to be implemented because i'm really busy ATM...

SlimKAT RC1 for TF300T/TF201 Build 4.8 is compiling ATM ! :D

Hello everyone,

I've just launched current weekly release building :highfive: :good: Files will be available for download from Dev-Host & xda later today ;)

Have a great day :D

Best regards
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
SlimKAT RC1 Build 4.8 for TF300T/TF201 now ready for download...

Hello again,

Build is complete and Dev-Host download links are updated, please checkout post number 1 as usual ! :good:

There is absolutely nothing new on my side in it except that Nova launcher is the default one in the ROM installer; previously there was no launcher at all and because almost every one of you is flashing a GAPPS package with it (which probably contain 'Google Now' launcher...) no one has complained about it in that thread BUT things are different in my other thread which is about SlimKAT ports for GT-I9195/0... i've posted a poll in it and it's showing that some users would like a launcher in the ROM installer... it is done ! ;)

Because of this and from now on, if you do not want to flash any GAPPS package with my SlimKAT ports ROM installers, you could do so and then you will have a fully working ROM without any 'Google Play' services

! :good:

With that said... i am still working on dock battery status display : it is almost done BUT

because my TF300T is still bootloader locked

, i will postpone RC2 release until it is unlocked in order to be able to test RC2 well before its release...

I am not forgetting TF201 users neither : when i will have some freetime left, i will try to figure out the 'unmounting external storage' bug which is TF201 specific !

In build 4.8 released today, the defconfig file i used to build the kernel that ships with it is very close to the 'old' stock CyanogenMod one; it is not based off the 'new' one (which is used ATM in TF300T CyanogenMod nightlies...) SO it should be TF201 friendly and also working well on TF300T :highfive:

I wish you a very happy flashing time... :D

EDIT : According to SlimROMs Team website, you will find SlimKAT build 4.8 changelog below :good:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] GibonXL:
+1 for Nova (I have a payed version with more features, so sounds great to me :) )

The last build is succesfully installed with the GEAS F2PS.

As for the rom, I see Slim doing improvements here & there :good:

Is there any way to get Google Play without a pack of GAPPS?

Or can anyone confirm Banks Core Gapps wotkin on the Slimrom?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] luismiguel1977:
FYI, when I was running crombikk dock battery was working, maybe something in their source may help?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Hello, it is not surprising that much because AFAIK, CROMBi-kk is based off CyanogenMod source code but of course, it has been highly customized and optimized by CROMbi-kk team; congratulations to them BTW ;) :good:

ATM, dock battery status display is properly handled in AOSP KK based ROMs only in CyanogenMod and its derivatives because it is CyanogenMod DEVs who have implemented 'libhealthd' which is handling it correctly !

So the problem with dock battery status display is not that i do not know what to do... it is that the amount of SlimKAT source files to alter is simply... huge ! Just checkout corresponding CyanogenMod commit if you want to... : here ;)

Last Build Work Very Well :good:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] DoughMucker:
I'm now using SlimKAT (build 4.8 with F2FS Geass) and loving it. :) I tried dirty flashing over another kitkat ROM, but was got stuck in a boot loop, so needed a clean install. Titanium backup to the rescue!

The difference between this ROM and stock is like the difference between night and day!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Well... Thank you :D

NOTE : I've deleted the 'dock battery status display' poll BUT don't worry i will add this feature ASAP, according to your interest in it ;)

Hi.

I'm having trouble waking the tablet after it sleeps over night. Power, keys, tapping do nothing to wake it. I need to hold the power button down to reset the tablet. Is there anything I can do to fix or test what is happening?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Hello, what is your device and kernel please ?!

Anyway your setup is suffering of SODs... this should not happen if you are running stock CyanogenMod kernel embedded into latest build whatever your device is...

It's a TF300T running f2fs geass.

So i should flash again without geass to fix
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
If you're using F2FS GEASS, then you do have a F2FS ready custom recovery... please be carefull if you ever decide to go back to a non F2FS setup... with that said i can bet that if you were using stock CyanogenMod kernel from last build ROM installer, then your setup would be SODs free BUT as you are already running a F2FS kernel, if i were you, i would ask for some more feedback about F2FS GEASS and SODs ;) AFAIK some users already reported back that they are really happy with this setup without any SODs...

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Okay, just let me know if that solves your SODs issue please... :fingers-crossed:

Does anydody else have hardware proprietary keys issues on TF300T with latest build please ?

I will keep you updated. I might play with WiFi settings and delete some apps first before flashing again.

Mouse pad toggle works on your ROM. It didn't with omnirom.

Thanks for helping out and letting me know it was probably the kernel. I tried a few different settings but got more SODs. So I fastbooted a regular twrp, formatted data with ext4, and I'm now using your ROM without geass/f2fs and it is working great so far.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Hello, let me ask you this question again : are all the dock ASUS hardware proprietary keys working ?! ('settings' key to access settings menu directly for example... they are all located on the first top line of your physical keyboard...) These keys are handled by 'asusdec' AND should all work ;)

It seems that only 'home' / 'recent apps' keys are not working for you...

Is this the case for someone else please ?!

Anyway if it is what i think... it is caused by missing source code AND it will be fixed in upcoming next weekly which should be released today :good: (it already happened...)

Sorry for the inconvenience but please do remember that i still have no device to try out new releases ATM because my TF300T is still bootloader locked...

Is it necessary to wipe the data partition prior to flashing the 4.9 build over the 4.8 build?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] DoughMucker:
Oh uh...SOD using 4.9 and the standard power pack. Is there a log that I can look at to see what may be causing the SODs? Should I re flash without the power pack?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Hello ;) When upgrading (minor or major), i always backup the /data partition ONLY from recovery THEN i wipe all partitions except 'internal storage' AND 'microSD' of course... After that i flash ROM + GAPPS (so at this point it's a clean install...); finally i restore my imaged /data (which contains all user APPS + all system AND APPS settings...) AND i never got FC / SOD while proceeding that way with stock CyanogenMod kernel :good:

This is what i do and if you're beginning to get FC / SOD with dirty flashing i would suggest you to do like what i described above... with that said if you're using TB to restore your APPS after a full wipe + clean install AND are getting FC / SOD even after proceeding like i've just suggested... you certainly will have to perform a full wipe + clean install + re-install all your APPS from the 'Play Store' sadly...

Good luck !

Sent from my GT-I9195
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Please proceed like described in my above post BUT instead of wiping /data, format it from recovery then reboot to recovery and proceed with remaining steps... ;)

Do not forget that my packs are tuning filesystem of several partitions of your device so to get rid of this if you have any issue you will have to format these partitions, wiping does nothing about it...

Also what is exactly your setup please (kernel ?, F2FS ?, dalvik / ART as runtime ?)...

What is the advantage of wiping all partitions and restoring the data partition after the ROM install compared to leaving the data partition alone, wipe system/dalvik/cache, and installing the ROM? Will leaving the existing data partition somehow affect the install of the ROM into the system partition?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ne0zone75:
Leaving /data as it is impacts nothing in ROM installation process BUT if anything is corrupted inside it you will have to re-install all your APPS after a wipe / format of this partition...

In addition if you imaged /data you will ever be able to format it or wipe it...

I never use dirty flashing AND i'm never getting FC / SOD...

Have a nice day !

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shawnbrennan55:
So what is left on the partition when you perform a wipe that is removed when you perform a format?

When wiping you do not alter the filesystem structure at all...
