I was only refering to the fact that you said "adware to be a scourge upon mankind", and I can't agree with that while recognizing the fact that you support developers using paid apps. FWIW I don't get any ads in my home either, find them obnoxious, but I do recognize that without those there won't be any Google or Android. Google's revenue remains 90+% ads-based, even though they take 30% on every app sales.
[Asus Transformer TF701] loner.:
30% is a lot, but I guess its the price of doing business with them, I wonder what Amazons take is?
[Asus Transformer TF701] stevens243:
Can we agree that this conversation does not belong in this dev thread and move along please.

For a good app the pro version is the way to go. Nova launcher and Titanium Backup are good examples. :)

I use the BootManager XPOSED module. It seems like the cleanest, simplest solution.
[Asus Transformer TF701] mashed_ash:
Any big bugs? good enough for use as a daily driver?

I'm thinking of using this ROM as my daily driver moving from the excellent CROMI-X 4.3.

Just wanted to know if there any bugs which might stop me using this ROM as my daily driver?

Important Announcement

Last Tuesday my wife was diagnosed with cancer. It is the most aggressive type. She has already had surgery and the cancer is spreading. She starts intensive chemotherapy on Weds next week.

So if you don't see me around much - you know why :(

There are more important things in my life right now which take priority. I will still be supporting the team in the background when I can but I don't know how frequently that will be.

Thank you for all your great support so far and to my wife - I love you and am here to get you through this!

Great work Sbdags.

Can anyone confirm if this rom supports reading and writing from an NTFS usb harddrive?

Also does all the dock keys work? including the shortcut keys on the top row?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
I doubt NTFS works as CM11 doesn't support it unless they changed something?

The dock works with almost all the keys. Most of the shrotcuts work (brightness, volume, etc) except for wifi, bluetooth and trackpad enable/disable don't seem to do anything. It's a CM11 issue.
[Asus Transformer TF701] beady_uk:
Thanks for the quick response.

I found this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php...tmctr=(not provided)&__utmv=-&__utmk=37439651

Does this rom have fuse.ko support? if so i could just use that method to get NTFS support

I use my tablet quite a bit at work and NTFS read & write support is kind of a deal breaker.

Thanks again
[Asus Transformer TF701] HippoMan:
Thank you for this work!

Can this ROM be dirty-flashed over the previous 4.4.3 ROM?

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
NTFS support is broken by selinux in 4.4 roms. That thread is from 2012 when we had ony just got JB. The fix by putting ntfs.ko into the kernel is not supported by kitkat unfortunately.

If you want NTFS support stay on the Asus base (like CROMi-X)?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Trevor_g:
What a statement. Agreed... hope is a powerful (and in my experience, essential) thing. Being a former skeptic of all things religious, I'm not sure how I functioned so long without it. The Truth is out there, friend.

I digress... Sbdags, aside from praying for you and your wife, is there a way we can send small donations your way to say thanks for your work (and to remind you that you're in our thoughts)? Do let us know.

Moving back on topic, did you ever get art working in your release? I read a while ago it wasn't bootable, I hope that isn't the case anymore.

Good luck with everything, I can't imagine the hell you two must be going through..

I am so sorry to hear of your wife's diagnosis, I know how hard it can be to have loved one through Chemotheropy and deal ith Cancer as I have lost numerous family members to Cancer (however not my wife and I can't even imagine dealing with that). I hope everything goes well with the chemotheropy and it is a quick andpainless as possible for you and your family. I am at the same time loving the progress you have made with this ROM and the ones previously going all the way back to when you took over for Scrosler with the TF700. I have a few questions though as far as the current ROM, I have tried the method to force Screen Casting to work and I have had no luck with this device, I have no issues using it on my HTC One Max running NuSense or my Nexus 7 (2013) running L Preview. I have tried diffrent methods t get it to work on this device however it just wont work (conicidently and not related to this ROM or device, I cant get it to work on my Son's HTC Droid DNA either). I am also wodering if there is a way to change the cursor icon when using the dock to the standard arrow from the circle that is on this ROM, I use my Bluetooth mouse and it shows the arrow however the keyboard dock and its a circle. I am having one other issue that Im not sure is related to the ROM or Hardware and that is scratchy horible quality of the speake. I have had the issue for the past couple months ever since I finaly got around to rooting thi device and installing your ROM. I am once again loving the progress and quality of this ROM and everything you have done for the Asus community and wish you and your family all the luck.
[Asus Transformer TF701] gav2fc:
Firstly sorry to hear about your wife - hope it all works out.

Having trouble browsing certain sites in this ROM using any browser (that I've tried anyway) while setting User Agent as iPad - anyone else having this issue and any ideas on how to fix?

Basically cannot click any of the links on the sites.

Works fine with different UA or as iPad UA on different device so didn't seem to be the site itself.

Return to shipped ROM???

Dumb question but . . .

I am not unlocked or rooted yet and allowed the device to upgrade before I became aware it could be soft rooted on the original ROM.

Is there a way to go back to the original ROM and soft root with Towelroot then upgrade again and retain root without having to unlock the device?
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Doesn't seem to be possible to downgrade to 4.3. I know of two users who tried and failed (so I would not consider it "confirmed" just yet). Give it a shot and let us know. It'll either work or fail - no harm done either way.

I haven't gotten a tablet yet, but am planning to in the near future. Just to get an understanding on this, there is no way right now of getting a recovery on 4.4.2 Asus bootloader?

If that is true, I'm going to buy the tablet right away to make sure I don't get one with 4.4.2 on it
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
You can unlock your bootloader even on 4.4.2 with Asus unlock tool and that enables you to flash a custom recovery and rom. No problem there.

What you can't do as of now is: root the tablet without unlocking the bootloader.
[Asus Transformer TF701] royredman:
But if cwm and twrp doesn't work on 4.4.2, what recovery does work on it?

Or was the last couple of posts that sdbags was say was only based on touch based cwm recovery?
[Asus Transformer TF701] stevens243:
TWRP doesn't work on the 701 currently (and maybe forever). CWM does work. So not a touch based recovery. Other than that, unlock, flash and do what you want on 4.3 or 4.4.
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
We do have CWM. But so far nobody got the drivers for the touch interface to work in recovery. A little annoying, but not more than that.

Any suggestions?
[Asus Transformer TF701] lj50036:
inside android/system you need to make sure that all the folders from cm dont mix with others so I would make a cm folder and a crombi folder

within the system folder ...

Once you have that all taken care of ... you need to run this command in the crombi folder

repo init -u git://github.com/CROMBi-kk/crombi_platform_manifest.git -b kk4.4

Then run

repo sync

Let me know if you have any other questions along the way ..

Thx Josh

[Asus Transformer TF701] SonjaMichelle:
I did the

repo init

then

repo sync ( Took forever and a day. :silly: )

then did my ./get-prebulilts

Did my source build/envsetup.sh

The nice thing about VM's is that you can blow them away and recreate them on the fly. I got some rest last night, redid my VM, transferred over the repository did a lunch then a make clean && mka bacon -j8 and this time I got a zip package! :victory:

The two things I did different were not doing the apt-get update/upgrade from the guide. I just let the normal update run from the desktop. The next was I added bacon to the make. I didn't have it in there the last time.

If it's true that enabling native Apps2SD in AOSP ROMs takes but a couple lines of code, why complicate it further? Of course I'm just wondering if this is the case right now. It'd be neat. Thanks for the tip though.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Apps2sd and data2sd sound like 2 different concepts to me.

One sounds like a way to free up space on internal by having a stub point to the apk on external and the other moves the whole data partition (apk, database, cache, dalvik cache) to external as it is faster than internal especially for writes.
