Dear friend, the following guide is intended for you. It does not require root, nor an unlocked bootloader:

You'll probably want to wait until official 4.4.3 images are available - that way, you won't need to update your system after flashing, making for a very clean installation.

Enjoy :)

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmoulder:
Seems everybody is trying out F2FS, but I've been pretty happy with the existing setup on my TF300T. I know it's "flash-friendly" but what exactly does that *mean*? Longer life on my flash memory? Better speed and performance? And if so, are we talking incremental improvement or really noticeable changes? Aside from curiosity, is there really a reason to change it?

Current setup is CM11 with GEASS kernel (not F2FS)

Thanks!

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddd3astra:
The lowest Quadrant scores on my TF300 were always the memory and i/o scores. I just upgraded my CROMBi-kk (_that kernel) to F2FS and it bumped those scores up from "disasterous" to something like 5 times what they were before. I don't have my tablet with me to check, but I have definitely noticed an improvement since I made the change.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastorbob62:
:good: When I moved to F2FS, I saw a pretty significant improvement as well.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaringDomino3s:
although this thread doesn't belong here, in Android Development, and should be in General or Q&A, it is a VERY good question...

For this device (T300T) I have noticed a GREAT improvement in performance. I read in the Nexus 5 (hammerhead) forums that F2FS mainly improved write speed over read.

I read a good deal about Flash Friendly File System, and learned only that much without trying it. I am not always in the mood for doing more research than necessary. . . I learned how to convert to it, how to restore back; the errors that occor and how to correct them; the potential dangers; and then i re read the instructions and the forums regarding them.

On my Nexus 5 I'm amazed at the backup speed in TWRP and have found great performance enhancement, though its a Nexus 5, so its quite difficult to "feel" the difference unless you mess around with your device a ton (kernels roms OC etc) and THEN switch to it.

with this device, I have noticed a near-night and day difference since switching over. All I did was back up my data/media to my microSD and format using GEASS's provided recovery and flashed CM 11 back on and flashed Hardslog's grimlock kernel and then gapps. I used nandroid manager to restore my apps from a nand i made b4hand and copy and pasted whatever files I wanted on my tablet (which were few) internal memory.

Voila! my tab is sexy again.

Not sure about the whole F2FS All thing (reformatting all partitions to f2fs) its mentioned more in the hammerhead forums, and have read mixed reviews.

but its definitely worth a shot if youre not afraid of doing a little bit of reading and a little bit of dirty work, as it is quite beneficial on this tab

the end...for now

Hey people, i've got a kind of anoying problem.

Sience a while back my batteryindicator shows the wrong battery precentage. When i've fully load the battery and unplug the charger, I can use the tablet for several hours without the batterybar is changing below 100%. But after a time the batterybar is starting to changing normaly - until you reach about 50%. Then the tablet completly dies, and cant be started again without loading it.

It seems like it's not completly calibrated. I've treid two things to fix the problem,

First of all i've tried diffrent Roms and kernels.

Second I've tried the Battery Calibrator app from Play Store without success.

Do someone know what the problem could be, or even better - do you have any solutions?

I am currently on latest OmniRom, a completely fresh install with everything wiped.

my device is HTC Amaze (carrier Wind in Canada). Bootloader unlocked, S ON, Rooted, Recovery 4EXT (Ver. 1.6.... something). H boot: 1.93.0002 CID: GLOBA001

I recently installed CM 10 in it, after much hick ups, to say the least. Now my 4g disappeared. I only get 3G showing in the network signal. How do I get back 4G?

on a related note, I haven't been able to access my internal and external SD card. Says it can't mount SD card. (but I guess I will read some other threads before posting about that issue).

Thanks.

[HTC Amaze 4G] pbergonzi:
Lost 4G

Is it possible you were coming from GingerBread and did not do the proper upgrade to ICS first, INCLUDING the radio?

Might be good to go back to stock whatever you were, verify that the signal is working again, and then go through the slightly more involved procedure necessary to upgrade to ICS, INCLUDING the radio, before flashing any ICS-based ROMs.
[HTC Amaze 4G] moonrocker316:
Right you are, the device came with GB, but then it got updated to ICS through HTC software update. I didn't have to do anything, but select yes.

I will wait till my SD card issue gets fixed then I will go back to stock. So you are saying I should go back to GB or should I go back to ICS? I had 4g in ICS.

Thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] pbergonzi:

I know with the stock T-Mobile ROM, they lumped everything above 2G together and called it 4G. So, 3G, H, and H+ would all show as 4G on a T-Mo ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] moonrocker316:
I'm with wind, but your theory does make sense. I never saw 3g in stock. It would either show 4g or won't show anything.

[Verizon LG G2] F1fan07:
Had the phone for about 24 hours. Had no issues last night as I rooted though adb with ioroot and flashed recovery using AutoRec. I then did a full wipe and flashed xdabbeb's ROM, kernel, and alarm fix. I let it run all night and shut it off to install SIM. Installed SIM and when it booted back up the LG screen went white and now I have the the vertical lines in the image attached. The lines are now preset no matter what I do. Do I need to return to stock and return/replace or is this a problem with the methods I used?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! The phone itself seems stable enough...and I know LG has some quality issues, but damn..

UPDATE with further details:

ioroot v25 to root via adb

vs980 AutoRec to flash 2.7 TWRP

backed up EFS

nandroid backup

full wipe

flashed xdabbeb VS98024A v1.1.1

flashed xdabbeb alarm fix

flashed xdabbeb kernel 1.1.0

panel type is LGD

Let it run all night, took it off the charger this morning and powered it off to put SIM in. Phone rebooted instead and I thought, "that's weird".. Powered it off and it rebooted again, "oh sh!t", I thought.. Then the LG logo came up and sorta went inverse of the colors...white with a dark greenish logo.. Held down the power again and it rebooted again and the normal logo came up but with a parallel white line and the LG logo kinda off center.. Then when the ROM booted up all the way I noticed the horizontal dark lines staggered down then right side of the device. Stays that way in recovery and even after loading stock backup. Guess I gotta get it back to stock and swap it at BB. Pic attached!

Hope this helps people figure out the issue.. Makes me wary of LG phones for sure. Say what you will but my M7 didn't do this sh@t!

[Verizon LG G2] simple_fear85:
I am curious about something with the whole black line issue. I think I may have another idea. Please input for this will help confirm. What if it has something to do with downgrading the bootloader with autorec? Can anyone confirm keeping JB and installing xdabbebs 24a bootstack did this also?

Could it possible have something to do with autorec? Like I state before I am not pointing blame, but I read alot of post where people stated this has happened to them where they used autorec for kitkat and then installed? Maybe there is something where kitkat isnt working well with autorec downgrading the bootloader. If you downgrade any software with a newer upgrade wouldnt that cause instability within the kitkat itself?

What I am thinking is maybe the downgrade of the bootloader is causing over heating since it wasnt made for kitkat? Maybe it sounds stupid but what if? I remember having the black lines happen once before on a gnex I had and if i recall at one time you had to downgrade part of the software to gain custom recovery. My phone in fact got the black lines. What if we find a way to reupgrade the back to kitkats original bootloader and see if that fixes the black lines.

I know there was one case where someone claimed they got it after the OTA for kitkat, but could there be a possiblity that autorec was used in this case also?
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
I think it's safe to say most people flashing roms that had this happen had already been running a downgraded aboot so they could flash TWRP way before it happen.

Does the display shine black? then you probably shoot down your boot loader by e.g. pulling out your battery while booting . Since you can't get your device into recovery mode, your chances dropped pretty low to resurrect your device. Only way to solve this is applying the unbriclable mod (which ain't easy to do , gotta use soldering iron and knowledge of how to apply it to a chip) or change the chip inside the device.
