OK, I don't 'need' them... :)

I don't plan on dual booting, so I wouldn't want ROM2SD, but does f2fs work only n Samsung, since it proprietary?

Last question: Are all SD cards faster, or so I need to get a certain class card before Data2SD is worth it?
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
No, I'm currently running F2FS on my TF700 under cRONBi-kk installed on internal.

And, no, all microSDs are not faster - you'll need a Class 10 minimum, UHS-1 is better, but do some research online for actual speed tests on cards. A lot of people have had mixed results on different brands.

My next challenge is going to find the time to move it all to the microSDCard and run Data2SD + F2FS.

sorry wrong thread ;/
[Asus Transformer TF700] jupppo:
Dont know whether thisis the right thread here, but having to severe issues with the latest ROM:

1) Battery live is down to 2,5 h, compared to 6h on stock Rom I had yesterday

2) Having Sleep of Deadt with that Rom, all OK on Stock.

Any Idea?
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Yeah - compare it over more than one day.

I'm not being snarky - but if you installed this ROM yesterday, or earlier today, you more than likely also wiped your data and started fresh. And then reinstalled all of your apps.

You said you had stock yesterday so that means you haven't even given it a full 24 hours ot recuperate from all that you have done to it.

Also, look at the menu up top and select Q & A and post further questions there, unless you're posting ROM development questions. This thread is for ROM development.

Hello,

I don't understand why my TF700T isn't so kind enough !

I'm in ASUS STOCK JB 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER VERSION 10.6.1.14.

When I reboot to the bootloader to enable fastboot on the TF It write :

key driver not found..booting 05

android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "WW_epad-10.6.1.14.10-2013001" A03

Starting fastboot USB download driver

The RCK link generate an error !?

When I start the TF It write device unlocked

Could you help me ?

Which kernel did you try to install. I remember having this issue when I tried porting _that's kernel to CM10.2. The fix for it was merging something from the _that ramdisk to the CM ramdisk. I can't remember what it was though......
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Any chance you could remember or send me a link to that kernel so I can unpack the ramdisk and compare? :fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Preliminary changelog from TWRP 2.7 (all included in 2.6.3-that3):

* Faster graphics rendering by disabling alpha blending on fully opaque objects thanks to Tassadar

* Allow sideloading from /tmp on encrypted devices

* Check for a crypto footer before asking for a password to prevent user confusion

* Additional checks for validity to auto generated backup names

* Text wrap in the console output

* Proper caps lock support in the keyboard

* Mouse support via USB OTG for devices with a broken digitizer

* Improve scanning of storage locations for OpenRecoveryScript

* Haptic feedback for buttons, keyboard, and vibration at the end of longer running actions

* Fixed ext4 wiping when no selinux contexts are defined for that partition (e.g. sd-ext)

* Update SuperSU to 1.93 and improve installation process

* Added selinux contexts restoration to fix permissions

* Load RTC offset on Qualcomm devices to fix the date/time in recovery

* USB Mass Storage fixes

* Add SELinux support checking

* Add Disk Usage class to better handle excluded folders (e.g. Google Music cache)

* Add 4.4 decrypt support

* Add some toolbox utilities to TWRP (namely to support SELinux functions not supported in busybox)

* Various SELinux fixes

added by me (only in 2.6.3-that3, not in the official build):

* Compatibility with pre-KitKat ZIPs

This requires a little explanation. When the recovery is compiled in an Android 4.4 source tree, any update-binaries in flashable ZIPs that are from earlier Android releases will not be able to read system properties. So those ZIPs that assert that they are installed on the device they are intended for will fail to install with an assertion failure. Workaround is to build the recovery in an older Android tree (that's what the TWRP devs do now and will do for the official 2.7), or to support the old property system in the recovery (that's what my patch does).

No, there will be no code from me in the official 2.7 yet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] kbboykin:
I originally installed _that kernel from aroma, but went back to the stock kernel due to lots of "keyboard stuttering"and FC, even though navigating the home screens was quick and fluid. I figured I had installed something incorrectly with the _that optimized kernel. But then this started. I was going to try to logcat via Catlog, but it went away for the longest and I could never catch when I went back and turned on CatLog (unless I don't know the correct way to use CatLog). I suppose I should just turn CatLog on and leave it on and then cut/send the section if it happens again.

Crap, I wish I could remember but it was so long ago.

However as an FYI I just did the same thing for TF300 - slapped in _that's kernel with a CM11 ramdisk and didn't have any errors with media crashing. Just didn't have wifi :P
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Easy to fix. :) Just copy his modules over to /system/lib/modules ;)

Cool, so it's probably something else.

Yea, it will be an easy fix for the 300 though, but I was just testing it to see if I could remember the ramdisk problem I used to have and see if it could have been the cause of the user for this rom and their media crashing.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
1. I formatted my sdcard,

2. then flashed _task TWRP recovery.

3. flashed the 0306 ROM choosing ROM2SD and the _task kernel

4. flashed rom2sd1

5. flashed gapps

6. rebooted and was booted from EMMC instead, and apps were recompiled (looks like gapps went there).

I'm trying the 0307 ROM now, and can't find the log file I saved from the ROM flash, but will try to find and send.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
Can't boot into sdcard based ROM

I seem to get through the aroma installer fine. I choose another boot animation so I can tell what is booting. But after TWRP reboot, I get the cm11 boot logo and am back in EMMC cm11.

Attached are my 0306 and 0307 aroma logs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Thank you I found the problem!! :D The problem occurs because of the clean install.

I'll have another version up in the morning. :good:

[Asus Transformer TF700] psudeke:
First, a million thanks for the hard work. I have been hoping you'd take on 4.4! These tabs just seem some much more fluid on it

I got a random freeze (had to hard reset) followed by a reboot shortly after getting back to the OS. I did a clean install through CWM and used Hunds kernel with f-sync off (i know it was Hunds, the other details are sketchy at best). I was playing Asphalt 8 when the freeze happened, and just poking around in the settings during the subsequent reboot. I've attached the last_kmsg from the reboot if that helps.

I'm not sure if this is related, but on entering Hund's app i get an error "Error reading valid values" on the CPU screen. Let me know if there's anything else i can provide.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mackis:
Hi.

First of all i want to thank everyone who contributed directly or indirectly to make it possible for this ROM to take the leap over to KitKat.

Coders, testers, monetary contributors. All play an importand role in the making of this ROM.

Now to the purpose to my post and this thread, my bugreport :)

I wiped and reformatted everything so i made a clean install. I repartitioned my microsd according to instructions, 1st partition 16gb fat32, 2nd 42gb ext4 and third 1gb ext4. All as primary with gparted.

Then i rebooted to recovery and wiped and everything. Flashed ROM, Flashed Cache2sd and last flashed gapps.

all without errors, reboot and stuck in preinit....... nothing happens and cant enter any command on keyboard as ctrl+d.

Reflashed and installed with data2sd instead and everything installs, but max freq seems to be 1500mhz.

I choose _thats OC Kernel during install.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes I have fixed a stash of errors today :) ROM2SD only works with CROMi-X or variant on internal right now. And DATA2SD doesn't work. :(

I'll have another version up in a few hours. No fix for the above 2 issues but other fixes in pace. So far:
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000024

I wouldn't use hunds for now. It was quick hack that needs more work. I will be removing it from the next version.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mackis:
Hi Sbdags.

Great job boys, Rom2SD now works and this puppy fires up as it should.

But i still max out on the processor at 1500mhz max in performance with _Thats kernel.

Adding the installer log for you to check if it says something.

Did a wipe of dalvik and cache before install.

Best regards

Mackis
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Ah yes calendar sync is broken. Not to worry - it'll be fixed in the next release :)

BTW here is the latest TWRP 2.7.0.0. in a flashable form if anyone wants a quick way to upgrade. Just flash from your existing recovery and reboot.

DOWNLOAD TWRP 2.7.0.0
[Asus Transformer TF700] vampyric_blood:
So your bootlader is unlocked. When you were on the bootloader screen with rck blinking that is when the tablet is already in fastboot mode. Rck will give you the android guy laying down until you install a custom recovery. Best way is to download the .blob file and push it via fastboot.

This should also be moved to the q&a forum.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fonetval:
Hello,

I have flashed this wonderfull ROM (as my Rom2SD ROM, CROMIX 5.4 as internal one ) and when I take a look at "Infos" it shows _that 7 kernel : the printscreen in post #1 shows _that 8 kernel and a Quadrant score >9000 that I have never seen before (mine reach at most about 6800) !

During flashing progress, I saw _that 9 kernel ...

Can you explain the point please ?

One more thing : thank you for this ROM and all the efforts to allow newbies to benefit of your knowledges :) !
[Asus Transformer TF700] eleger91:
Hello,

Sorry for my little level of comprehension but :

I've dl the TWRP 2.6.3-that3 By that and renamed as twrp.blob.

I've reboot to the bootloader to enable fastboot by either holding down [power] and [volume down]

I see 3 icons RCK (clignoting), Android and Wipe Data

I've connected my TF via USB to my PC (seems to be active because of LED connexion opened)

I've opened a command line and write "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob"

The return is <waiting for device>...

When I active the RCK icon, It write "booting recovery kernel image", "installation de la mise à jour du système" (sorry it's a french TF) and "erreur"

:cyclops: :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] vampyric_blood:
Try the command fastboot devices

It should return the serial number of your deviceor it will return nothing.

Do youhavethe fastboot and adb drivers properly installed?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Sidewindr:
I have an issue backing up here with a DATA2SD install and getting the recoveries to backup the correct partitions.. the zip file posted here works a treat for ROM2SD installs but not for DATA2SD installs. I think we need either a DATA2SD1.zip or the logic in the current zip's scripts needs checking.

If I use the ROM2SD1.zip with my DATA2SD install I am unable to backup the internal /system partition as it remaps the internal /system device (mmcblk0p1) to a non-existent external_sd partition (mmcblk1p3) to the ext. The only way I can get a decent backup with the recoveries is to manually mount mmcblk1p2 to /data in a shell and cd to /data in order to prevent the recovery unmounting it and trying to mount mmcblk0p8 when I run the backup within the recovery.

I hope this makes sense, I've had a few days working with little sleep so I am a bit scattered ..

cheers..
[Asus Transformer TF700] eleger91:
Hello,

When I start the TF normally, the "Asus Android Composite ADB Interface" (pilote version 4.0.0.7) and the "Asus Transformer Pad TF700T" (pilote version 1.0.0.5) run properly.

When I write "adb reboot bootloader" from the command line, the TF restarts and shows the same words as noticed before.

Is it normal to see "key driver not found" on the TF ?

When I write "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob" from the command line (from the right directory which contain the trwp.blob, of course), the result is as followed :

sending 'recovery' <7700 KB>...

FAILED <command write failed <no such device or address>>

finished. total time: 0.013s

:cyclops::confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] vampyric_blood:
the key driver message is normal when you boot into the bootloader. Mine says the same thing. Do you run the command line from the same folder that the fastboot application is in along with the twrp.blob file? If you are then again go into fastboot and try the command "fastboot devices" if it returns with the serial number of your TF then you have a good fastboot connection at least and you can try again to push the .blob file. Anything more than that someone else may need to chime in and help out since I am still somewhat a novice myself.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It'll normally be a driver issue.
[Asus Transformer TF700] eleger91:
Sorry,

I try to understand what you mean.

When I start and connect the TF to the PC, there is an "ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T" identified on the file directory manager.

My serial number (shown via the properties) is C7OKAS047553.

I don't understand what I shall do after that !?

I've got the cwm.img, twrp.blob, twrp-2.6.3-that3_Signed.zip, gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip, cm-11.0-20140503-CROMBikk4.4.2-tf700t_Signed.zip files on the root of my sd card.

When I write "fastboot devices", no result.

When I write "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery cwm.img" or "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob", it returns < waiting for device >

And the Asus Sync Application inside my PC recognizes my TF...
[Asus Transformer TF700] vampyric_blood:
Thats what I was thinking it is, I just suck at explaining things out.

Ok so from the begining.

Turn of the TF completely.

Put the TWRP.blob file in the same folder as where ever you have the ADB and Fastboot applications installed.

Shift+Right click in a blank spot in the folder and select open command prompt here.

Plug in the TF to a USB port on the computer.

Turn on the TF holding down power+vol down.

In the top right corner it will first say "this device is unlocked" then it will go into the bootloader and one of the last lines says something about starting USB fastboot.

In the command prompt on the computer type int "fastboot devices" It should return with the TF's serial number. If it does, go ahead and use the command prompt to push the twrp.blob file to the TF. If it doesnt then you are still missing the fastboot drivers for the tablet.

[Asus Transformer TF700] nevertells2:
Sorry for posting this here, but it is about this thread and it wouldn't make sense posting it in the Q&A thread.

After being gone for over a week, I come back and the development purpose of this thread is almost completely lost. I've lost count on how many times folks have been asked to post non-development issues/questions in the Q&A thread. The developers are SBdags and lj50036 as it states in the OP. So it's really for their use with all of us as onlookers. That being the case, can't the moderator lock this thread for everyone except the recognized developers and anyone who they want to give posting privileges to such as folks like _that? If any of us have problems, issues, comments, bug reports etc, we can do that in the Q&A thread. The developers can choose to address legitimate issues here in this thread for us non-developers to read.

It's pretty obvious that people do not know how to read and follow the wishes of the developers. So unless we all want to see this ridiculous dance continue of trying to get people to post in the proper thread, IMHO, it's time for some drastic action and thus unclog this thread with unwanted posts.

Again, my apologies for this post here. If the developers wish to have the moderator move it, I fully understand.

I agree with you, with respect to the "HOW DO I" and other Q&A type posts that should be in the Q&A thread.... HOWEVER!, You have overlooked :eek: those of us who actually can identify bugs but for varying reasons are not actually developers... A prime example of this is my post above about the issues with the logic used in the scripts when determining device remapping etc. thus creating a compatibility issue with recoveries performing backups... Kind of IMPORTANT as one should always have valid backups when messing about with ROMS etc.. :p:eek:

[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
I got another segmentation fault when trying to do data2sd with f2fs & ext4. This time (as opposed to 5/03) it did go through the boot animation but got the encryption unsuccessful error. However, the GOOD news is that I still got segmentation fault using data2sd with ext4 , BUT it booted normally without the encryption error :good:

FWIW - not sure if it matters, but the way I've been trying it is just switching the data partition on my sd card with gparted live between ext4 and f2fs. I've left the fat32 partition alone since it has my backup / TiBu folder / etc. So, mmcblk0p1 is fat32 and mmcblk0p2 is either ext4 or f2fs. I'm not strictly following your directions and deleting all partitions before setting it up, since I'm short a spare extsd card.. However the ext4 format has booted fine (despite the segmentation fault on the debugging penguin screen). Thank you for all the hard work! :highfive:

Looks like google calendar sync is missing on my install.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Don't worry about the segmentation fault. It doesn't mean anything important here.

I tested this to death yesterday - if you are getting the encryption error then please post the contents of fstab.cardhu in your /system/boot/rootfs_rom2sd or rootfs_data2sd folder on internal. This is the file that controls ext4 and f2fs mount points.

Also tell me what you installed, in which order and how your sdcard is setup. Thanks!
