system is always unmounted by default in twrp - it's to stop you doing stupid things to it ;) so that is normal.

Can you post the recovery log from /tmp/recovery or advanced copy log to sd please so I can see what it says after you try to flash the rom.....
[Asus Transformer TF700] babbehmom:
When i tried to copy log to SD, it says successful and its in /external_sdcard... but when i check my micro sd, there is no file on it.. So i used a new Micro SD (the one that i didnt have formatted for Data2SD) and it worked. here it is

An update: Reformated the MicroSD card that i used for Data2SD and put the flashable CROMBI-KK file on it. I managed to flash it successfully and chose the Data2SD once again, however, when i was installing, it said my System size is -1MB and Data is -1MB. I ignored it and completed the installation and everything was fine. However, when i open file explorer, it says there is no "/sdcard" and legacy drive has 0MB/0MB. My MicroSD is working fine though however. How can i fix this issue? The only available storage space i have is from my MicroSD card...

I went back to TWRP and tried to mount Data and it does not allow me to mount data. only options which are mounted are: "cache" and "MicroSD card":(

Sorry if this is this a dumb question but I would really appreciate a reply. Thank you very much.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
No, but you can ruin it by letting it run empty and then not recharging for a couple of weeks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You can restore using tibu, don't do the system ROM apps though.

You only need to wipe if you are coming from another base like jelly bean. If you are ready running kk you don't need to wipe.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eddie Hicks:
Thanks sbdags. I'm on CROMi-X 5.4. Thinking about giving kk a try. Thanks again for all the great work and enjoy your holiday.
[Asus Transformer TF700] loner.:
I really enjoy running Crombi-KK on a fast sdcard using ROM2SD. No wonder everyone made it sound easy, if you follow the instructions and ask questions when needed to fill in the parts you're not sure of, it is rather easy. People in this thread can and do help a lot. Thanks for helping everyone!
[Asus Transformer TF700] snappytom:
I have had this question for a while. I don't run the ROM2SD. I don't know why people do. Is it for the speed? Is it faster to run on the external SD or do people use ROM2SD so they can run different ROM's by inserting different SD cards? :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Mainly so I can test flash stuff but with a good card you do get a speed boost. Rom2sd = internal with fsync off.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Both....if you have a better R/W speed than you internal sd....:D

EDIT: I am too slow with typing.....:silly: Have a great trip and enjoy your off time....:cool:

Ok. Sounds like I have some work to do. More adventures ahead! I'll give it a try.

[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
About to install it right now.

[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] - since I am running cROMBi-kk with F2FS on internal Since you've included the _that kernel with F2FS, do you think I should just install 0403 over my existing using the modified TWRP for F2FS, or do I need to repeat all of the steps in the F2FS thread?

Aww, hell, I'm gonna try it and see if I can do it on my own and then make some blobs. I'll post back in a bit.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Just install it. Why do you need to make blobs or use the modified twrp.....?
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Modified TWRP 2.7.0.0 is still on there from when I first installed F2FS on internal. Should have no issues. Running installer and I see that you've clearly laid it out.

As for making blobs, I meant nvFlash blobs....

I also upgraded to the latest Dolphin browser today, flash works fine for me. ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Another one...

I just had that error when implementing f2fs. I really start to think it's a bug in TWRP 2.7 - assuming that's what you have installed too. I noticed quite a few people getting this error in totally different circumstances lately. Normal installation, rom2sd installation, me after I formatted to f2fs....

Are you out of the loop?
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
I did not have that encryption problem when shifting over to F2FS on cROMBi-kk internal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mikerla:
I got it to install with the first option internal with ext4? not in the Aroma Installer forgot what it was called.

Going to back up this installation and try F2FS again and report back.

EDIT: NO JOY Same Encryption Unsuccessful with the _thatv9 cm11 f2fs kernel

Also

I did a recovery backed up on my working 5.4 setup, can I just restore that back up with no issues over this CM11?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Just do a factory reset in TWRP first.

Upgrade from earlier version of Crombi-KK

1. Hi all, can someone please confirm wether in order to upgrade from a former version of Crombi-KK ROM to the latest (04-03) it is enough just to download the new ROM, go to recovery and install the zip file? Or do I need to wipe cache, etc. first? I ask because the install instructions are specifically for people coming from stock or other ROMs, but I could not find a clear indication about upgrading (maybe because it is obvious to everybody else, case in which I apologize... anyway it could be of use to include the info in the FAQ or install instructions in the dev forum...)

2. Also, and related to my first question, is there a way of making the process of upgrading from older to newer versions of the same ROM automatic, as it happens, for example, with CM Roms?

Thanks in advance for any information.
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
You can install over it. We call it 'dirty' flashing.

As far as automatic, no, it is manually done, but easy enough.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ontos81:
Many thanks johnlgalt! I edited my question to make it more precise before reading your reply, suggesting that this info could be added in the instructions or FAQ for others that might have the same doubt. As I said, it is probably well known to most people, but it would certainly be useful info to some. (And, true enough, if I just need to download & install it is quite easy!)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Gudders:
Is there anywhere to find the option for "disable wake from dock". Battery consumption when asleep is very good, and I haven't yet had a location services battery drain like I used to. However I feel that the dock is still active and using battery when the tab is asleep. Any ideas how to enable this option?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mikerla:
Was not sure if anyone would see this if I did an edit - Sorry for the double post.

Is there an issue with the F2FS kernel?
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
The latest build on ROM2sd seems to have cleared up a lot of remaining lag from the prior build.

Also haven't seen the out of memory issue.

I'm using all default options. No speed tweaks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] guliver365:
I am running f2fs no problem at all just doing a factory reset should resolve encryption error

[Asus Transformer TF700] GrimSage:
Anyone have an answer this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
....

3) use fastboot to install twrp_f2fs

4) format data to f2fs

5) do not reboot. TWRP suggested it when I did this and it got me the "encryption unsuccessful" error/loop

6) wipe cache (may not be necessary but wth)

7) install CROMBi-KK f2fs version (option in the installer)
[Asus Transformer TF700] GrimSage:

Lol I just started using Crombi-KK ROM2SD. The ROM2SD with f2fs sounds good but maybe difficult to get it just right. :(

[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
Are there plans to make an installer with f2fs? Not sure how that would work, maybe clean install only with titanium backups...

Or do I need to read the instructions and just get it over with? Is it worth it? Or is the latest ROM 2 sd about as good as it gets?
[Asus Transformer TF700] toolmanz:
I just installed Combi KK for the first time and it appears to be working using ROMtoSD. I had Cromi 5.4 running on my internal, flashed the 'that' version of TWRP and GParted my 64Gb SD card per the instructions. Now, just to be clear, I left the Cromi 5.4 installation as is and just flashed the ROM2SD KK. I didn't do anything special to the internal. Installed 20140403 version.

I installed with Fsync off but journalling on. That v9 kernel 240 DPI most of the other stuff was pretty standard.

I then had to install SU to actually use root (after turning it on in settings) is that normal? I also had to install Playstore - is that normal???

My biggest concern is that I can't reinstall (through TIBU) all of my apps. The system says I'm outta space??? Only 100 /mb left of the 1 Gb partition???

The file manager says I have the following space available (per ES File Explorer):

906 used of 1007 of 0

256K used of 16 Gb of sdcard1

10.17 Gb used of 27.15Gb o sdcardi

10.98 used of 29.88Gb on sdcard2

I have a 64Gb SD card which I used for the ROM2SD (slot in the tablet itself) and a 32Gb card in the dock slot.

I don't think the space is correct - I know I should have a lot more space. ?????

Did I do something wrong? Should I have formatted the internal - then installed 5.4 on internal and then do KK on the ROM2SD? :confused:

Hoping somebody can identify the problem .... :(

TIA
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I don't think it has anything to do with your CROMi-X installation. Leave that one alone.

How did you partition the card? Like this:?

FAT32 partition: 16 gb

ext4 partition: 47 gb

ext4 partition: 1 gb

Looks to me as if rom2sd identifies your system partition as /data (the 1gb) and probably installed /system to the large ext4 partition.

That could happen if you did not create the partitions in that order: fat32, (data) ext4, (system) ext4.

If I guess correctly you have to reformat the card in gparted and start from scratch.

That's one lonely system on that huge partition :cyclops:

Anyone know what version of TWRP the f2fs-twrp is based on?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
There's a web site called "Google.com" you may not have heard about - it's easy to use: Type "f2fs" or "what is f2fs" into the box, then click the first search result and read. Honestly, that kind of question does not belong on a developer forum - it is expected from users to do basic research themselves. You can and should still ask questions if after an hour of searching and reading you still need more information, but then your question will be a lot more specific.

Benefit: It's faster on slow storage like eMMC.

Negative: It's not a finished product yet. If it breaks, there is no way to repair the filesystem structure. It happened to me in an experimental installation, and then I found out that fsck.f2fs can only detect inconsistencies, but not yet repair them - kinda like this:

It's based on TWRP 2.7.0 very shortly after the official release, and a pre-release of my f2fs-enabled -that9 kernel.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mikerla:
Does it matter if we are using TWRP 2.7.0 or 2.6.3 _that's. I would like to be able to restore my 5.4 backup going forward while testing the KK beta.

Got passed the encryption error. Ended up re-formatting my SD card using the specs provided (just cut in half as I have a 32gb card), and then reflashed TWRP 2.7.0 and installed. Now I'm just experience some serious GUI lag to where I'm getting -5845 on quadrant? I don't even know how that's possible, but I figured I'd ask what settings other people are using. I have tried with both GPU rendering options checked during aroma, as well as turning down the resolution and having the tablet in performance mode and I'm not reporting scores similar to others.

I am pretty sure this wasnt related to the install of the latest version, but on updating to the April 3 build I get an "Encryption Unsuccessful" error (like this one: http://imgur.com/AABbF14 ) in an Android desktop environment...I am unable to reboot into Recovery or Fastboot from here and it seems the button combo to get to recovery and fast boot no longer registers. My PC can see the tablet through ADB, but when I try to ADB command it to boot into either environment I get the screens of the Cromi installer (The Tux penguins and command line text on the tablet) that leads right back to this error. Its basically an endless install ROM loop that ends in a forced reset leading back to the tablet reinstalling the ROM and ending in the Encryption error...

Is there any way I can recover from this?

Jikes! And yet another one! Something is up, people. We have never seen so many "encryption unsuccessful" errorrs like in the last week or two!

Could you describe in detail your setup, rom, recovery etc and what you did before this happened?

I had this error yesterday with twrp_f2fs (which is based on 2.7 I believe) after I formatted internal data to f2fs. I was on the 3-22 build.

But I could still get into fastboot.

adb reboot-bootloader doesn't do anything for you?

And you need to provide more details on your current setup. Something is seriously wrong there....
[Asus Transformer TF700] bender_123:
I will give it a try when I get home after work. Thanks for the help!

I am on a standard TF700T (US version), Was on a version of Chromi from about a week ago and was updating to the April 3rd build. My Recovery is the latest version of CWM (no touch).

I did a complete wipe from data on my tablet, because I had been running CM 11 and several stock versions prior. Was just going to go back to a fresh Rom, backed up everything with Titanium and started an install. I managed to get through the installer without issue...did all the selections and everything ran silky and it gave no indication of a problem. Went through about 5-10 of startup animation (normal) and then went to the error screen...It was plugged in during the entire process and never was interrupted.

Should add I did select the ROM2SD install...swapping cards doesnt seem to affect the loop. Went from a 64 GB to a 4 GB FAT 32 format card.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kite09:
When trying to get passed the data encryption error I pretty much started over from scratch. I re-formatted my 32gb sd card using g-parted and using similar specs to the ones in the outline just cut in half because of the card size FAT32 = 10gb EXT4 = 20gb EXT4 = 2gb (not aproixmate but you get the idea). I then re-flashed TWRP 2.7.0 and re-flashed mini-c to my internal after doing a system wipe. After that I flashed crombi-kk using the rom2sd kernel in the aroma installer, and did stock everything aside from checking both gpu rendering options. It installed, and my quadrant scores were -5485 (not sure how that's possible but it is what quadrant said). Performance had been very laggy and honestly worse than stock. Went and re-flashed with Hund's Kernel and rom2sd and while I'm not able to say I'm getting a quadrant of 8000 like others I'm getting about 6300 which is far better than it has ever been. And to check that the rom was on the sd card I removed the card while the tablet was in operation and the tablet crashed.

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------

Sorry, thought you were asking for my resolution. But when I was getting it I had mini-c on internal and was using TWRP 2.6.3 which I think was my issue. One other peculiar thing to mention is that I don't get the 4 Linux penguin screen that everyone says you're supposed to get.
[Asus Transformer TF700] bender_123:
It seems if I can get it to break the install cycle I should be fine...By the looks of mine the install is taking precidence over the call to send to recovery...even on physical force recovery button presses. If I can get it to stop, I should be able to access my recovery again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
I think mini-C comes with a Hund's kernel so your issue was/is kernel related. You may want to read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51303662#post51303662

When you were getting the 6300 - you were in Performance mode? ART or Dalvik?

That is because you are running Hund's kernel. Only _that kernels have the penguins.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kite09:
Running Dalvik, and that was in blanced mode. I just ran it again in performance and got a similar score. And even with the other kernel I never got the penguins? And thanks for the link, it helped calrify a few things.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
The Penguins are the kernel starting up - doesn't have anything to do with installation. How far do you get in the boot process before it goes back to the encryption unsuccessful screen?

Post the commands you tried from adb to boot into the bootloader please.

That you have CWM (6.0.4.7???) busts my idea that TWRP is causing this :(

So we have one case where it happened during CROMBi-KK rom2sd installation and the error was on the external card. TWRP version was 2.6.3

bender had it happen during CROMBi-KK installation to internal with CWM recovery.

And it hit me when formatting internal to f2fs with twrp_f2fs

Which tells us - nothing. Darn

[Asus Transformer TF700] toolmanz:
Folks,

As suggested by berndblb last night :good: :good: - the problem I had last night with the install was not having formatted my SD card properly. Finally got it going and I discovered that it is the hunds kernel that is running - even if I asked for KK to install _thats v9??? Is this because I have Hunds kernel running on my Cromi 5.4 on the tablet (internal)? If that is the case do I have to run the "switcher" and then reflash my internal to _thats kernel (if I get the drift of this post)? Then reflash the "switcher" and reflash KK with the _that v9 kernel selected? :rolleyes:

Can anyone confirm?

Oh, and you first time GParted users the following is the setup for a 64Gb card:

1. 16384 for FAT32

2. 43497 for EXT4

3. 1024 for EXT4

I'm having nightmares about those numbers I've done it so many times :crying:
