[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
I do get what you're saying and thanks for the info. But to address a few points:

1) I did run Quadrant and stated that it hit 18k.

2) I also stated that I don't have a problem with how apps run. The problem I see with speed, as I've said a couple of times, is the basic stuff, like exiting an app and waiting for the screen to draw, shortcuts getting created, stuff like that. The basic stuff. But once an app does come up (which seems delayed to me), it runs smooth as glass!

3) As for what I'm choosing to run in the background, you don't usually choose to do that. Apps do that all by themselves when you install them. That's why I said that setting up for me is not a 2 hour affair, but a 2 day affair. Because I go into the settings for each and every app I install and disable that stuff whenever possible.

4) The reason I use a bootmanager and Greenify, is because Task Managers (an erroneous title for those apps) kill the apps, but not the problem. The apps just start right back up again. I prefer to change the settings in an app and for those that don't allow that, I keep them from running in the first place. Then they only run when I want to use them. For example, I do not have news apps updating in the background. I update them manually after I open them.

5) I do not care about running the Asus apps. I have removed all of those that I can, except a couple of necessary ones. If you have a 4.4.2 ROM that will run stable, I would be interested in testing it for you once you consider it to be "finished". I'm using that term loosely of course, meaning that there will always be some sort of bugs in any piece of software that's out there.

You've been very kind and very helpful. Thank you for your time!

Also, I am a tech and have been for 30 years. So if there's ever any hardware, or Windows (I know) questions you have, please feel free to PM me and I'll give you my personal email address there. I appreciate community and people like you help to make it one! I sincerely mean that!

As for your ROM, I'm going to wait for you to come out with a KitKat ROM and then install that. I assume it will be after ASUS releases the OS update???

It's fine, because I've got some othr priojects, like trying to convince my LG Optimus F6 that the 32GB External SD Card is actually its Internal Storage. :) There actually is a way to do it, but so far, I can't get it to do anything more than swap the two while it's running. Once I reboot it, it says; "Nuh, Uh!!!". :)

Do you have your own thread where you announce your stuff? I'd like to keep up to date with your new releases. I don't trust stuff from too many people, but as far as how a ROM should be done, you and I seem to be on the same page. Just what you need and then customize it with apps yourself.

P.S.: I'm still interested in OverClocking this thing. For me, the rule is as follows: "Does it run? Yes? Then it needs to be overclocked!".

I.e., Asking ME if it needs to be overclocked is kind of like taking my friend Jeff shopping for his next motorcycle. He was looking at two of them. He asked about the top speed. The sales guy told him one went up to 160MPH and the other to 170MPH. The salesman then said; "But at that speed, does the 10MPH really matter?".

My friend Jeff looked at him with a very serious face and eyes wide open and said; "Of course it does!!!".

My philosophy with Porsches and computing devices. :)

Thanks again!
