Yes, When hardslog joined team CROMBI. I kind of made him start the version over so it was easy to track as per the GPL ...

But what an addition hardslog as been to our team..... :highfive:

[MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] [MENTION=5123642]lj50036[/MENTION] [MENTION=1784706]sdba[/MENTION]gs, good morning guys, back on Crombi-kk now, but confirmed - yesterday I flashed KatKiss 4.4.4 ROM (I think it's AOSP based) and with all types of Grimlock kernels the camera worked. So camera troubles on Crombi-kk are probably not related to Google/Android changes but rather to changes in CM? The question is, if that fact does change anything..... Big thanks to you all guys for a good work BTW!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Revhead:
Gotcha. Thanks for the reply.

So what are the main differences between the Grim and Geass kernels?

Also if I flash from one to the other will I lose all of the apps that I have just updated?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lj50036:
There are lots of difference, but [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] would be better suited to answer this one :)

The flashable zip of the kernel any kernel will only affect the /boot partition...

So no worries about messing with any apps on /data or /system ...

Thx Josh
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hardslog:
With Geass you have two options, his regular version and F2FS version. Geass kernel has Overclocking to 1.7ghz but it has edp limitations that weren't ironed out so it doesn't really overclock properly. Geass also has many different governors and I/O schedulers to choose from whereas Grimlock Kernel just focuses on making Interactive and ROW better :)

With the 2.4F2FS version of the kernel you have true overclocking to 1.8GHZ (some tablets cannot clock that high) but you have to have your /data formatted as F2FS

The new Grimlock 2.0 kernel does not have overclocking yet for the prime but can clock all 4 cores at 1.4GHZ so the performance might even be a bit higher than the Geass kernel. The special thing about the 2.0 kernel is that you can run that kernel no matter if you are running data2sd, ext4, f2fs or even rom2sd. It detects at boot time what your tablet is running and automagically makes it work. A feature created by the ingenious Mr [MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION]

Hope this helps :)

Hmm, so when I flash kisskat the installer finishes successfully but boot doesn't complete. Get stuck on an endless boot animation. When I straight flashed kisskat, I got a lot of graphical distortion and artifacts, so I shut it down, figured it was likely kernel cpu and/or gpu clock set too aggressively for our older devices, and flashed the latest grimlock lite.

You do anything differently? If not I suppose I'll give it another whirl with a fresh download.

Interesting...

So I just flashed the new update for Crombi, and at boot it pisses out a stream of [preinit] log text, announces it is booting into OS, and then sits expectantly and cheerfully vacant like a farting dog. Two things--the first download link does not contain the update, so I grabbed the file from the mirror. Is this update flashing for everyone else?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JuraP:
Firstly - don't know, why are you describing install of KatKiss - it's a different forum. (btw. Flashed KatKiss, than Grimlock 2.4 f2fs kernel and booted right on...) As I don't like the interface of stock AOSP, right after I checked functionality of the camera I went back to Crombi....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
It was mentioned a few pages back. It's actually a little more off topic in the TF300 forum in my mind. Anyway. Folks here had it running on our device. Seemed appropriate to ask if any special steps were required. Did you use the GL lite kernel or the normal one?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JuraP:
Appropriate seems to ask these questions in KatKiss thread. And next time it's enough to read properly - as I wrote I used Grimlock f2fs 2.4 for TF201 kernel .
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Revhead:
Sold! To the man with the Grimlock kernel!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lord_alias:
And it was all going so well :(

I have a slight problem, not sure how serious it is just yet...

Just flashed the latest update, everything went through fine with no errors, left everything normal in the install apart from choosing the Grimlock Kernel, it restarts and goes into a bootloop at first ending in.

preinit: finished - booting your operating system...

[ 10.209594] preinit: /system/boot/preinit exit status=0

and now it has been stuck like that for 40 mins. I tried a powerdown but it immediate powers back on a second later, I have tried entering recovery but it just boots straight back to this :S

Any ideas what I have done?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lj50036:
No i have no idea what you have done ...

So with the hardware buttons you cant get back to the bootloader ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lord_alias:
Booting holding Volume down brings me to the selection screen, pressing volume up to choose recovery even brings up the prompt of booting into recovery but then the device shuts off and proceeds back to the usual spot :S
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
Same thing happened to me as decribed a few posts back. Downloaded the file from the mirror again with the same result.

There is no katkiss thread here, and you were the one that introduced the subject. How bout you let the moderators moderate, eh? Its not your place to decide whether these things and endless self appointed moderator commentary are the ONE thing that has ZERO place in any thread on this forum because they waste everyone's time and are more relevant to the posters ego than development or problem solving. And there are two versions of grimlock. I didn't presume your specificity. Two word clarification or silence would have done. Good grief.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lord_alias:
did you manage to find a solution? I have tried everything :S
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JuraP:
Sorry for off topic guys... [MENTION=5228347]hypocritelecteur[/MENTION] :

Last thing I'm aspiring to is to be a moderator or place myself (as a simple "half noob" user) in that position. I just think, that question related to specific ROM or kernel compatibility should be placed in thread related to the ROM or kernel. Logicaly should be you question in grimlock or KissKat thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2817919, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2603015 (IMHO) . About kernel - I think I was specific enough : I'm using older (overclockable and tweakable via Trickster mod ) version of grimlock kernel 2.4 f2fs for TF201 - it isn't any of the new versions, that you've been talking about.... The only reason , why I talked about KissKat in this thread was, that I wanted to help devs to (maybe-fingercrossed) solve the problem of nonfunctional camera of TF201 in latest two builds of Crombi kk (by pointing to other 4.4.4 ROM, where the camera is working with Grimkern ). If my answers offended you, than I'm sorry, buddy.... Good evening.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
No. What version of TWRP are you on? I'm on the modified 2.7.0.

I tried to ask earlier if anyone has successfully flashed the download and got no hits. I've downloaded the file three times and all yielded the same result. My guess is either a twrp burp not playing well with the zip for some reason or a bad upload.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lord_alias:
I have just this second got it to boot -_- took almost 5 tries to boot into recovery so it may be that my volume button if starting to pack in?

either way I slashed again but when it asked for my model I flashed as a 300 instead of 201, took 10 mins to flash, then another 10 mins to boot but now it is up and running! not sure about recovery but I presume since I have just started flashing the prime its the latest?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
The thing is, that posting these questions in the TF300 forum nets users like you over there whining about not cluttering their precious thread with questions regarding another device. This happens frequently. Use the forum search. Every thread with a rom that works across both devices is full of this rubbish.

This is the clutter. All threads would be cleaner and more focused if users let the moderators or the thread custodians take care of what does and doesn't belong. They're big boys and a smart bunch, more than capable of steering the train.

This conversation is what does not belong anywhere and that is the last I have to say on the subject. I should apologize for my tone. Black mood today and I get tired of this happening twenty times on every thread on this forum.

---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 PM ----------

Interesting. You flashed as TF201 before? That's what I did as well. I'll try as a 300 and see if that does the trick. That indicates more that there's a problem with the file or the build.

I had no problems with rebooting after that preinit text, so maybe the rocker is going on the volume bar. It's an easy fix if you're comfortable opening mobiles. Its only scary the first time. Find a youtube video and grab a $5 rocker or button replacement and stick to a youtube video if it gets worse.

When you boot into twrp your version number is written in the blue banner at the top.

Anyone successfully flashed the update as the TF200?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acc131:
Help!!

I need some help everyone! I don't know what happened here but I am in a jam. I downloaded the TWRP-TF300T-2_7_0_1.zip and changed the name to cwm.img per the instructions but it failed...then i unzipped the file and took the recovery.img from the root of the folder and renamed that to cwm.img and flashed that which appeared to flash with no issues (blue line filled). Then I went to boot into recovery by pressing volume up when the RCK option was presented, and now i get to the "booting recovery kernel image" screen which after a short while boots back to the original "Eee Pad" splash screen. After that I get stuck in a continuous boot loop. ADB will no longer recognize the device while in this loop, i can't enter fastboot, and holding power+down gets me back to the "booting recovery kernel image" which repeats the above process all over again. I'm out of ideas here. I was running unocked, rooted, with a custom ROM based on 4.1.1 before this.

Any ideas? My apologies, i haven't touched this thing in months and wanted to see what kitkat was like on it. Now i'm regretting dusting it off! Thanks so much in advance.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
Mmm. That sir, is a hard brick. You have to replace the logic board. Which costs as much as a new TF201.

Unless you did the nvflash through atx trick which is a giant pain in the balls to figure out the first time. You popped your cherry!

Asus really ****ed the dog with this device line in a lot of ways. Asus is the true techie hardware lovers company, they've always had a huge following among the tinkerful, but they made this thing harder to tinker safely than any device I have ever used.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acc131:
That's what I was afraid of. I was hoping for some kind of miracle from the TF201 pros. Thanks fir the quick response, I do appreciate it. Any insight as to where I went wrong? Even if the recovery image was bad, I can't understand how that prevents an untouched ROM from booting back up. Real bummer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
Are you coming from stock or did upgrade the bootloader for androwook or one of the other updated stock base roms? Pretty sure the f2fs twrp will brick an upgraded bootloader or just not work.

Did you flash the latest 0716 version of crombi? Because that one might have issues. Couple reported problems, no reported successful installs unless you select the wrong device in the aroma installer. Then it works. :P

So if you had a bad rom install for whatever reason, and a bad twrp, its just a perfect storm. You're far from the first if its any consolation. I've got one! Only device I've managed to brick because its stupid easy to do.

For the transformer line, in order to be truly safe from hard bricks, you must perform an infernal ritual to enable nvflash access so that if you lose adb you can hold volume up + power to boot into NVIDIA tegras ATX recovery and access the system partitions through that interface.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acc131:
Yeah, this is the first device that's beaten me. I was coming from stock bootloader/recovery running a nightly of eos jb. Everything was working fine until I tried to boot into this new recovery and got stuck in the loop. Unfortunately I didn't find out about nvflash until I was researching a fix for this issue and by then it was too late. Thanks again for your time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hypocritelecteur:
No problem. Might be worth poking around or getting another opinion as I am hardly the last word on this stuff but I wouldn't bet on anything.

I do have a logic board, coincidently. PM me if you want it. I have no use for it and won't ask anything near what an ebay parts scavenger would. Hell, I'd ship it your way and only charge if it works and you get it installed. Thing has sat in a box for 8 months, never actually installed it so cannot guarantee that its good. They're not that hard to work on inside once you decide to do it. There. Got my good deed of the day out of the way so I can get back to being a cranky misanthrope.

Hi !

I want to try your ROM, but i'm stuck in a boot loop. The instructions say it will last 10m to boot, but all night in the boot animation and is stuck there.

I came from AndroWook v2.31 , so I already had the updated bootloader and TWRP 2.5.

I've installed the TWRP 2.7 and next installed the ROM. Rebooted and stuck in a loop....

any hints on how to get out of here ?

Root and app install

I just finished doing the updates and thanks for a great ROM.

Here are my issues.

1. No root.

2. Apps take hours to upgrade.

3. Camera doesn't work as many have posted earlier.

I thought I saw in a post that you had to change file permissions or make a change in setting to get root.

Any suggestions?

Disregard signature - haven't changed it since upgrade

Found the post on root. Disregard. Now rooted.

Still having issue with long time to upgrade apps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sbdags:
Nothing I can do if you have lots of apps to upgrade - it will take a long time - this is the slow IO you are experiencing. The way the rom works is it gives more resources to the app currently demanding it. Turn off auto app updates in the play store (the more you have to do the slower it will get) and try to keep them updated by checking it every few days.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 1seniorgeek:

After a reboot things starting working much faster.

Please correct me if i'm wrong - guide for upgrading from hairybean 2.31 to crombi-kk step-by-step:

1. Download normal (not F2FS) TWRP from Post #2 and copy it on SD Card - TWRP-TF300T-2_7_0_1

2. Go into HairyBean TWRP and directly flash this zip file (i think adb shouldn't be needed?) - Wait for blue bar to be filled then restart into HairyBean Android to complete

3. Download and save Crombi-KK Rom from Post #2 to sdcard - cm-11.0-20140716-crombi-kk-tf300t_signed.zip

4. Reboot into new TWRP 2.7.0.1 (not the f2fs version)

5. Do a full wipe (forgot which parts are necessary to do a correct wipe?)

6. Flash Crombi-KK

7. Boot into Android and start following this guide from point 2 (2. Download TWRP 2.7 for F2FS found above...) - install Geass F2FS TWRP and Kernel

You'r making it harder than it is.

There's no need to do normal TWRP followed by F2FS TWRP.

Just download the F2FS TWRP, F2FS kernel and the ROM, put it all on an SD card, then follow the procedure I linked to.

From memory you need to make it a MicroSD card or you won't be able to mount it from within recovery?

Worked for me.
