I got a kernel built but before trying it I noticed something odd. If I install CROMBi-kk then reboot it works fine but after any subsequent reboots I get constant crashes from SystemUI. Has anyone seen this before?

Also, if I want to use my own kernel and I'm using rom2sd, do I need to flash this after installing the ROM (i.e. with the recovery in rom2sd mode) or after a reboot into recovery (i.e. normal mode)?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
No, no FCs on reboot unless I try to add a second user in cROMBi-kk.

As for the kernel - your internal and ROM2SD installs must have compatible kernel modules to load, according to _that, which means that your internal install and ROM2SD install must have either the same kernel installed (or compatible ones) or else, I *think* you can just install your kernel on internal, and choose to not install a kernel on the ROM2SD install.

Long post but might be helpful to others.

I wanted to install mini-cromi on my internal and replace the Cromi 5.4 (gaining more space on the internal).

1.Formatted data and wiped everything a couple of times.

2. I installed mini-cromi and it booted no problem.

3. I then went back and flashed the _that v9 kernel onto mini-cromi.

I must have broken (removed) the script to boot into KK which was running no problem before changing up my internal ROM. Couldn't get to it.

4. I re-installed KK (dirty flash) to see if that would fix it - it did but got the never-ending boot screen.

5. Went back into TWRP and installed the ROM2SD1.zip and finally .....

6. Restored my nandroid backup. Everything is working. :)

Now for the point of all this drivel :rolleyes: Can I extrapolate from Josh's post that ......

If I had run the ROM2SD1.zip when I finished with the mini-cromi install (after step 3 above) - would that have restored the script to run KK from my SD card?

Just thinking this may save others from the additional hassle.

Comments? Confirmations?

TIA

So. I have been using happily crombi-kk so far except: Netflix is doing a lot of annoying buffering all the time. With cromi-x 5.4 the never happened. What's up with that?. Using the same router speeds over 15Mb/s. Any ideas, any help?

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It's because people don't understand how rom2sd works. See _that'smdev thread for a full explanation but in summary if you install a ROM to internal it will wipe your /system/boot folder which contains the files needed to boot to rom2sd. Thus you must reinstall your rom2sd ROM again.

When you install CROMBi-kk it put the files necessary to boot it onto internal in /system/boot. If these files cannot be found or scripts run it will boot to internal.

If you run rom2sd1.zip all it does is point twrp to your external setup. So when you restored, you restored nothing to internal, just external. Switch miniC to that's kernel v9 OC then reinstall CROMBi-kk with that's and it'll work.

I would suggest not using minic for now. It uses hunds et kernel which is probably in the most incompatible with cm11.

It's in the dev section. Sorry I'm on holiday so you'll have to go and search for it yourself. Hint type rom2sd in the search box ;) Try switching to CROMi-X with that's kernel on internal. You can install it over miniC as they use the same base.

A question

Guys,

There are alt of postings about rom2sd. As I understand it installs the rom (the system and its components) to the microSD card.

This results in more operational memory.

What is the downside and and are the performance benefits?

Sorry take up bandwidth if these are all well known to everyone...

Nope that's not the fix. The netflix fix that i got off of one of the forum stop working on CM11 about 3 updates ago. Its a software (CM11) related issue because it was not solid in the Cromi-X version.

Cromi X is using browser2ram for internet buffering. Do you know if Crombi kk using browser2ram? RAM is a lot faster speed than SD...;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Peter234:
In my case Crombi kk is installed on the internal storage. I am not sure if my Cromi-KK using browser2ram or not. I used the default oprions during installation. Is there a way to find out weather browser2ram is active?

And why would browser2ram be doing anything with the streaming problems when Netflix APP is running (not the browser) ?

Super.:)

FWIW, After a bit more experimentation, it actually *may* be working. Rebooted off the dock, then placed it back on. Noticed that the wifi turned off, but my samba app was still running (simply won't of there is no network present). In terminal I did an 'ifconfig eth0' and sure enough, it returned back 'up' with the ip address.

So, I think the issue was actually related to the charging issues. My suspicion is that when it decided it was charged (or some other reason), it came off AC, then back on wifi. That left it in an in-between state (docked, but no ethernet connection). A reboot off the dock seemed to have righted things for now.

I do not think at this point is aware of it's dock state, however, at this point. Fortunately, I can detect (with Tasker) the presence of eth0, which only exists while docked.

Looking forward to the next rev. Thanks

OK, so installed the 0211 (non-OTA) CMB rom, and behavior seems about the same. When docked, Wifi shuts off, and ethernet is enabled. Confirmed in terminal (eth0 present, wlan0 not). I'm waiting to see if the charge-full disconnects it as it did with CROMB-KK. I will edit the post after a few minutes with the update. Note that there was still no notification of the dock.

Update: Tablet is reporting 'charged', but it still is connected to ethernet. My current thinking is that some of my tasker automation that worked with CROMi-X is not working properly with CMB-based roms. I disabled tasker for this test, and it seems to be behaving more logically. I'll restore the CROMB-KK rom and and disable those instructions and see if the behavior is consistent with this.

Punchline: CMB appears to be respecting the dock's ethernet port and shutting down/enabling the wifi when dock state changes. I'll let you know how I get along once restored.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Try this:

cat /sys/class/switch/dock/state

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You don't need a PC. Install or use the terminal emulator I included in the ROM. If you installed with the default settings then you are using b2r.

You can reinstall over the top with no side effects BTW. You won't lose anything if you choose the same options.

BTW why don't you try the Netflix app instead of the browser?

Would like to hear some feedback from those of you who have installed the 20140403 version of this Rom internally. Most of the conversation is about trying to get it installed on the SD card and I personally think the internal installation on mine runs perfectly fine. I would only be trying a ROM2SD install if my current install was giving me problems. I have no lags, or FC's. One thing I have noticed is when I set the speed to 1.8ghz, the tablet only reports it is running at 1.5ghz. My Quadrant scores are not has high as others are reporting, but it's the stability and responsiveness visually that I care about, not how fast a bench marking program can measure it at. And usually it's those with the extreme tweaks to get the fastest bench mark speed that have the most issues like FC's and stability issues. So, anyway, before I install the 20140403 Rom, would like to hear from you all on how it runs vs. the previous 20140322 version. Thanks, NT

OH, one other minor thing I have noticed on my install, I have "Keep WiFi on during sleep" set to "never" and WiFi optimization unchecked. However, in settings/battery and tapping on the graph, at the bottom, it shows WiFi never turns off. On another tablet I own, with the same settings, that screen reports WiFi turned off any time the tablet is asleep. Don't know if that is an issue or a quirk of the TF700.

You could try modifying the build.prop so that your tablet displays as one of those models, but be careful it may also mess up everything.

Encryption Unsuccessful

I am trying a fresh install of CROMBi-kk and am running into the "Encryption Unsuccessful" cycle as mentioned above. If it is, indeed, using an unsupported kernel, which one should I use? I selected f2fs and DATA2SD menu option during the ROM config, doesn't that install the proper kernel? I get the "encryption unsuccessful" cycle regardless of whether the SD card is installed or not. I see the penguins at boot like I would expect to.

I am running twrp-2.6.3-that3_Signed and cm-11.0-20140403-CROMBikk4.4.2-tf700t_Signed.

I am switching from CM11 stock (mostly because I want DATA2SD, I am not interested in ROM2SD yet).

Here is what I did:

Gpartd: 32GB SD, 1GB FAT32 / remainder ext4

Flashed TWRP.

Factory reset.

Format /data (took a long time... said it was formating using ext4fs, hope that is right).

Flashed SROMBi-kk

Selected DATA2SD and F2FS.

Reboot System.

Boots, see peguins and linux style boot up, see Nexus boot animation, then...

"Encryption unsucessful"

Allow it to wipe.

Reboot.

...and so on...

Thoughts?

I'm not clear what you are trying to accomplish here.....

Is you goal to run CROMBi-KK with Data2SD and have that /data partition formatted f2fs?

I'm not sure which version of TWRP you flashed, but I suspect it was 2.7. not the twrp_f2fs which you should have used.

So you have an internal data partition formatted ext4 (since you did not use twrp_f2fs) and an external data partition formatted ext4, but you flashed a kernel that expects /data to be f2fs.
