I think something wrong...

Well all the comments are extremely positive...

But my experience was BAD .

Don't get me wrong it's beautiful but slow as hell!

It take over 3 minutes to boot.

The UX is amazing but slowwwwww worst than my stock! and that one really sucked.

Well I guess I'm going to try CM stable now.

Sorry for the post but I think negative comments also need to be heard.

Amazing tutorial and support BTW great team and the installation was easy, following the menu definitely made me feel great!

Good luck and maybe will meet again when a stable version will be released.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Thx for the post, if you would like anything to come of it :confused:

If you would like to post this kind of post, included a logcat or a last_ksmg or a dmesg ...

Did you install the patch ?

What bootloader are you on ?

What options did you pick in the installer ?

The more you give use the better we can help...

Or you can just say it was s*** and move along...

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
Indeed if you find this to be slower than stock, then you did something wrong.

Also, we do not like negative comments. Constructive criticism we like but an unhelpful post just claiming that this rom is slow and nothing more is not welcome.

Gmail 5.0 compose crash

Any one else running crombi-kk having issues with Gmail 5 crashing every time you try to compose/reply/forward an email?
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
do you have a theme installed? i had a lollipop theme that was causing these issues on my N7 (Carbon using CM11 theme engine).

went back to stock theme and GMail is working fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mobil11030:
Thanks. That was the problem... Its the Lollipop style to be exact. I switched back to stock Android theme and Gmail composing worked again. Then I went back to the themes nd applied everything but the style for the Lollipop theme and all is still good.

Crashes with Gmail 5

I have a similar issue issue whenever running on crombi-kk - RC2 [Sep21] , gmail 5 crashes whenever i compose, reply, forward, I had to uninstall update,. it will nice to know if this is a widespread issue or something specific to this ROM.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lamoid:
I've searched for, but been unable to find anything about this: after installing Crombi-kk 20140921, the that_ kernel, and rom2sd1 on my tf700 via TWRP recovery (using the instructions found on the dev thread) I am not able to access the internal sdcard. It shows up in the file browser, but I am unable to copy anything to it. I get a "copy failed" error. /sdcard is mounted r/w and has full 777 mod numbers.

I tried booting into recovery to fix permissions and that failed too with the error, "can't check permissions after factory reset ...." I tried booting the rom then going back into recovery. Same thing. I thought that perhaps if I updated twrp to its latest version, (flashed it) that might do the trick. But no.

One other anomaly: despite installing the asus apps from recovery two or three times and despite the installer saying it was successful, they are not there.

Any helpful suggestions.

Ps is there any way to do an advanced, targeted search on this site?
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
I don't have the entire, or perhaps even some, of an answer here for ya. But I do wonder if when you installed the asus apps you did what I've also done at least once -- installed them to internal when you meant to install them to the rom2sd1 partition. They don't, if I recall, have an option to do that within the install itself. So you have to use the rom2sd1.zip by installing it right before the asus apps install (no reboot inbetween the two installs). You probably knew all that.... but so did I, and forgot the rom2sd1.zip step. Messed up my internal install, because I had the wrong asus apps selected for it.... and was very suprised to find my external install didn't contain them.

That's all I got. Hope it's useful.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lamoid:
Thank you, Shonkin. I did make the mistake you suspected. I did not install rom2sd before installing the asus apps. I just now tried that. But it did not work.

I suspect I didn't install crombi-kk correctly to begin with. The first couple of times I tried, the system was extremely slow. Maddeningly slow way worse than without the high speed card and rom2sd.

So I tried to start over from scratch. I find the instructions confusing. They say to do a complete wipe. Well there is no option called complete wipe. There is factory reset wipe and an advanced wipe. I had done the factory reset prior to getting the lousy results so I went into advanced and wiped everything. But when I reinstalled crombi-kk with rom2sd the system started up with all my old settings apps and data intact. So the next time I tried I ran the reformat data instruction, along with wiping everything. Well then crombi-kk installed. And the tf700 was actually fast. Did not take 7 minutes to reboot like before. However then I could not get the asus apps to load and I found that I had lost access

To the internal sdcard.

That's where I am now except that I've managed to make it much slower again. It would be great if someone wrote a true step-by-step guide to erasing the tf700, then installing crombi-kk on the external data card along with a description of what the file system should look like when it has been done correctly. There are so many different ambiguous names associated with the partitions it's never been clear to me which was which. (sdcard, sdcard0, sdcard1, sdcard2,

0, legacy, sdcardi, usbdisk n, where n is a number, and more. Very confusing to me.) I'll write the instructions myself if I can figure out how to get this to work.

I will be most appreciative of any help you gurus can give this idiot novice.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
I'd appreciate you *real* gurus vetting what I say here and quickly correcting me if I made any grevious errors. I'm just a journeyman.

I'm glad you figured out that first part. The rest is not as complex as you might think. Step back from the directions a sec and think of it conceptually. Imagine you have two friends named /data. One lives on the internal card, the other on the external card. I'm new to this myself, so won't delve too deep here. But basically we want to meet and know both of them, just not at the same time. Basically, in other words, what we're after is a tablet with two different installations sharing at least some spaces (to share files and so forth no matter which is loaded).

How?

You have the hardest part done. Seriously. The ADB flashing and so on can be easy, but I got ulcers doing mine the first time. After all, that is the one step that a few bonehead moves can actually trash a tablet doing. (Not easily, but it can be done.)

Let's say you want a Crombi-KK install on your tablet's internals, and a Zombi-X on your external. (You can flip those around, or even install one of them twice -- what I've done, by the way.)

You've now done part one of this. You are running Crombi-KK internally if your post is still current.

Say you're back in TWRP. Let's wipe your *external* drive. (I'm supposing you *did* format it per the instructions in the first post in this thread.) What you have to do *-*before*-* wiping that drive is to load via TWRP the rom2sd1.zip file -- a script, really, that redirects whatever you do re wiping stuff to the external drive's partitions/directories. Anyway, don''t sweat it -- just run that baby, takes a few seconds and you should get a little riff of lines of words.

Next, the actual wipe. Yes, for our purposes, do select advanced wipe. Select /system and /data and /boot and the cache/dalvik cache. Just to be thorough. Do *NOT* select anything else. Wiping may take a while... though not a tremendous while, maybe five minutes or less.

Okay, you've got an internal already installed. You have a basically blank external. And here's our next step. You do not have to reboot at this stage if you're going to install to the external drive w/ rom2sd or data2sd. No need to reflash the rom2sd init script. You go to the install menu in TWRP. Hit 'install' and find your chosen file (Zombi-X for our story). My advice? I'd pick the defaults all the way through, no exceptions. You can always tweak stuff later.

When the install finishes, just follow it out. Then hit the TWRP reboot button and see what you get.

Blessings!

The sdcard dirs are confusing, by the way, but not as much as you'd think.

/sdcard is a rough equivalent of your home dir in linux, or user dir in windows.

/sdcard1 is your external micro-sd (if you have one)

/sdcard 2 is your dock's sdcard (if you have one)

Hi im trying to use gparted to setup my sdcard for rom2sd or data2sd but i cannot make new partition on my sdcard its locked. Can anyone help me please. thankyou.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Without knowing much about your setup, this may not help. But did you do the first thing... namely, to delete the old partition(s) from the micro-sd to make room for the new ones? Most cards come pre-formatted, and you have to delete the partition(s) first before you can create those you need.

Hope it is that simple. Blessings.

CROMBi-kk: Updating from [20140719] to [20140921]

Hi,

This will show my complete ineptitude here, but is it possible to upgrade to the current CROMBi-kk 20140921 version on file from my existing 20140719 ROM on the TF700T?

I had previously jumped from the stock 4.1.1 to 4.4 (20140719).

Now, I wanted to update the ROM but wasn't sure since the instructions state "YOU MUST BE ON THE ASUS STOCK JB 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER VERSION 10.6.1.14.10".

Does that mean that I have to revert to the old 4.2.1 bootloader in order to install the most current ROM??

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
There is no newer bootloader than 10.6.1.14.10. What you see in Settings is the ROM version, not the bootloader version. To see the bootloader version, look at the text in the bootloader menu.

Apex Launcher Crashing on Fresh Install

Hoping for some ideas here.

Just upgraded to the Crombi-KK ROM from the stock ASUS. From the first power up i have 3 issues, i suspect related:

* Long boot time, like 8 minutes

* Long power up time [10 seconds] when i open the lid

*Apex Launcher crashes repeatedly. [couple of times / day]. i have maybe 160 apps+widgets. Had a problem with Launchers crashing often on the stock ROM which was one of the motivations to going to KK. I am not at all tied to Apex or any launcher. i really dont customize or use any of their features.

What i found on the stock ROM was the launcher started crashing once i got more than 90 or 100 apps. is there some limit to number of apps to load? is there a more reliable launcher to use?

Have i somehow messed up in installing Crombi-KK ?

Grateful for any ideas.

ps -- i believe my battery usage has improved with KK -- not losing a lot of juice overnight as i was with stock. Also just loaded a screen filter app which promises to cut down on the amount of battery required to drive the screen. anyone else with experience in that one ?

installation of Crombi-KK without data2sd

Hi guys,

(I´m bloody beginner) - I installed Crombi-KK with data2sd successfully yesterday (greats thks to sbdags) from stock rom - unfortunately the sdcard is an old and very slow one:

- I want to install Crombi-KK now again - but without data2sd: how to manage this? Can I just boot to recovery and install the Crombi-kk again or what to do?

- I expect receiving the new (and fast) sdcard next week, than I will try to install rom2sd - what do I have to respect or how to manage this?

Thanks a lot

carachon
[Asus Transformer TF700] nevertells2:
Since you are already on CROMBi-kk-20140719, upgrading to 20140921 should only require flashing and clearing cache and Dalvik cache. You will have some different options in Aroma Installer since sbdags is always updating kernels and the like. I would stick with the defaults unless you are well versed in using CROMBi-kk Roms and Aroma Installer. _That can correct me if I'm wrong, but you would not be running 0719 if you did not already have the required bootloader installed.

Hello everyone. :)

I pulled the 'ol Transformer out of the drawer last night. I flashed the 2 patches over the September 21 release without wiping anything. I hope that was the correct way to go.

Dweeb question here ... any chance that someone out there is laying the foundation for Lollipop on these TF700T's? :fingers-crossed: I figure it's highly unlikely ... just had to ask. hehe.

Thank you!
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Just reflash the rom without data2sd option, then take the card out or reformat it to one fat32 partition if you want to use it for storage.

Not sure I get your second question... If you want to run rom2sd just follow the instructions to create 3 partitions on the external and flash the rom with rom2sd option.

Nandroid instead of fresh ROM?

If I flash the rom2sd1.zip to switch recovery from internal to external, can I then flash my current combi-kk nandroid and run with it on ext sd? Or do I have to start with a fresh install using aroma installer and Ti-backup? Or is there another way to accomplish it?

KK Freezes

Hi All,

I've been sailing along with KKr1 (Rom2SD with Chromi-X on Internal) for months, enjoying it as my base rom on the F700 until about a week ago when it started to freeze with the screen on. Would only boot back into recovery. Restored two backups: still the same problem: freezes within a minute or so of the home screen arrival, with or without app selection. Zombi (on another card) runs fine, no problems. Haven't tried reloading KK, wanted to get a Logcat (attached)

Bootloader, Recovery the latest. Kernel _thatv11.

Going through the process of installing this ROM and have hit a bit of a hiccup.

Hey sb or lj,

Having read the OP and the last 15 pages of the other kk(development only discussion) thread, I'm trying to figure out if the build on the OP(0921) is based on this statement:

"R1 p2 = most speed tweaks reapplied except for vm tweaks which may have caused lockups"

or are we still waiting for the "next release"? Thanks,

Yes we are still on R1 so the patch is still needed if you are having issue....

[Asus Transformer TF700] Maineprince:
It was the first ROM I've flashed to the device. Original OS before that.

I used the wipe from within TWRP recovery. (Latest version of TWRP) if that helps.

I ended up flashing CM 10.2 with TWRP perfectly fine, which is what I'm currently running on.

My money is on an outdated bootloader for a KK rom. Should be 10.6.1.14.10.

Check by booting to the bootloader screen and reading the tiny text.
[Asus Transformer TF700] militiaOfDeath:
Out of rom2sd and data2sd, which is the best for improved performance/(speed/snappiness) for this ROM? Thinking of buying a new micro-sd in order to speed things up a bit, but not sure which of the two I eventually should go for when installing the ROM over.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
ROM2SD = DATA2SD + SYSTEM2SD

DATA2SD = DATA2SD

So if you would like to dual boot say crombi-kk on internal and zombi-x on sdcard, then ROM2SD is for you ....

If you only want one rom and you would just like to speed up things on the data partition then DATA2SD is for you ....

Let us know if you have any questions along the way ....

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] militiaOfDeath:
Thanks for the quick reply!

I only need a ROM to speed things up, so then I'll go for DATA2SD. Just need to find a micro-SD that's fast enough and not too expensive. I don't use the TF700 that much to justify an expensive micro-SD, but again, it might be that I don't use it so often because it's so slow.

As I mainly use the tablet for web, e-mail, etc (no games, big apps, etc), will a 16GB micro-SD suffice? Or maybe 32GB in case I'd like to compare DATA2SD with ROM2SD (with same ROM on internal and on micro-SD)?
[Asus Transformer TF700] agentkalaw:
Would there be a significant difference in speed if you have your system (rom2sd) on external SD compared to only having your data in external (dat2sd)? I don't really need to dual boot any other ROM but I would think rom2sd would be faster.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Not really, as nothing should really be writing to /system ...

Not that is never happens but it would not be a noticeable improvement ....

The purpose of ROM2SD is only to be able to dual boot ... :good:

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Go for the 32GB. The price difference is $7 or so and you can never have too much storage... Get a quality brand like ScanDisk or Samsung, not a no name knock-off. It's worth it.

Apex Launcher has stopped working -- resolved

the stock launcher [and others] were all crashing/stopping which was the impetus for my deciding to install different ROM in the TF700. First install had same problem with launcher stopping. So did another install [with Crombi-kk] but this time cleared all caches and system area. Now no more launcher crashes. My guess is that a data structure related to the database of installed apps got clobbered early on and then simply resetting to factory and my initial ROM load failed to clear out that database. But this time i managed to clear the structures and reloaded all the apps without incident. Ran the Antutu benchmark and scored 20% higher than published figure for the TF700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] militiaOfDeath:
Yup, I saw that the price difference wasn't that big. But, what kind of write/read speeds are recommended (and what kind of speeds are realistic)?

Just picked two that are similar in price at my local store.

1) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Pro...gital_Camera_Memory_Cards&hash=item3398e3f0b7

2) http://www.ebay.com/itm/SanDisk-32G..._Electronics_Memory_Cards&hash=item3f3da7f37b

For the Samsung one it is stated that the read/write speeds are up to 90/80 MB/s, whereas for the Sandisk one they mention up to 60/40 MB/s. If the specs for the Samsung one are real, I'll buy that right away, but I believe it's a bit too optimistic?

Hello i have a tf700 with xenogenisis 5.4 i think and im looking to update my firmware its been a while since i last used it and somewhat forgot how to update firmware. I dl the latest firmware from asus, unzip that file for another zipped file, then power off my tablet. When power back on i hold volumedown till i boot into recovery and just select the zipd file? Also will i keep root and twrp? After i update firmware i want to install crombi-kk-r1. Thanks in advance for any help i will really appreciate the support.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
If your on 5.4 you probably are on the latest firmware as in: bootloader in case of this tablet. That term is used differently between devices....

Boot into the BL and read the tiny script, you should be on 10.6.1.14.10 for a KK rom. .8 is ok too, actually.

If you are on the .10 bootloader you just have to flash the latest TWRP version for this tablet, do a full wipe, then you can flash CROMBi-KK.

If you need to update your BL, check the OP of CROMi-X 5.4, flash the BL/TWRP package posted there, then flash the latest TWRP version.

Happy flashing :)
