[Transformer TF300T Android Development] digitalray:
i went back from 5.1 to 4.4.4 #36 but i am experiencing a LOT of lags and delays now.

what did i do wrong ?

i got the latest twrp, wiped everything (system, data, cache, dalvik, internal memory), then formatted everything.

installed

-katkiss 4.4.4

-latest supersu

-gapps for 4.4.4

-google launcher (did not use it as of now, just installed it, if i ever needed google now)

then cleared dalvik / cache memory and rebooted.

i tried resting it for 16 hours with charger connected (about 14 hours with 100%), but the lags are still there. also restarting didn't help.

i can't even type, i have to press a key for 5 times on the screen every 5th time or so and sometimes i get a wrong character then. same happens with anything like scrolling.

i didn't have any problems concerning this with 5.1, but it was so slow.

does anyone know this problem and how to resolve it ?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] JuraP:
What about a logcat? It might help.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] digitalray:
I solved it.. All smooth again now.

Solution was simple enough.

I just had to unplug the charger cable.

Seems like it has very annoying lags when connected.

Can anyone explain why?

Is it because of the media indexer which runs only when connected to a charger ?

It also happened with less than 70% battery.

Two more things i need... There are no Smileys in the onscreen keyboard. Is there an additional file to install them?

Couldnt find a link in this thread post with the Roms and additional stuff.

2nd i cant install YouTube 5.0.21 , i always get 'this file cant be opened', i downloaded the apk from two different links.

Installation from untrusted sources is on in the settings.

Another experiencing lag

I like this KitKat version. Haven't used my tablet for awhile regularly but something really is causing me lag for quite some time. What are my best solutions to troubleshoot? (Note: not related to what previous poster had as I have it whether plugged in OR unplugged...)

Oh, and just one other pet peeve. Is there something I need to do to retain default (Interface: Tablet UI) setting on reboots? I find my nav bars gone everytime I reboot & I have to manually go to Settings/Interface/ & even though "Tablet UI" - the first one, is selected, I am having to push on it and let the tablet pause & do it's thing - delay... blink.... then it brings up the lockscreen w/ bottom nav & all is fine.

I can provide "logcat" "screenshots of kernel version" ect... if anyone is willing to help. Might need a quick refresher on when/how to obtain logcat, that's all.

Thanks! :victory:

Regarding my last post.. Hrmm, no replies.

Has everyone moved onwards to lollipop?

If so, how is Xposed working on it & any special things to know?

Would really like to maximize my performance.

Any issues in regards to restoring "Data only" apps [non system] via TIBU if upgrading to the Lollipop variant of this?

Hi,

Can i apply a CM11 theme to this ROM ?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] UndisputedGuy:
No, there isn't theme support included but there could be an Xposed module to help with that

We don't make mistakes, We just have happy accidents.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Salamender:
It's possible to install CM Theme Manager then ?

Which Xposed module or KK ROM can manage CM Theme ?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] UndisputedGuy:
Crombi-kk, Pacman ROM or CM11 itself support CM themes if you want to use them on the TF300. If I'm not mistaken there's an xPosed module called something like HKThemeManager that claims to let you use themes on ROMs that don't have included theme manager, but not sure if it works on the TF300.

We don't make mistakes, We just have happy accidents.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
No but KatKiss Lollipop supports RRO theming.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Salamender:
Yes i know, i test it and it's a good ROM but all LP ROM aren't perfectly smooth like KK ROM.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Mongoose55:
Hi oxytw,?

Have you tried to flash your TF201 to TF300T using Fastboot?

I had the exact message and I did just that and it worked.

You have to be on the latest TWRP Area51 version though.

I formated my Data to f2fs file format as its required.

Now my TF201 emulated to TF300T tablet is sweet and fast

and can run multiple windows.

Cheers and Regards

for the ROM to accept the emulated TF300T or otherwise it will fail

Hi! Can i install this ROM on a TF300TG?

Thanks for you work! :good:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] 00471:
yes you can, but you wont have 3g support
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] RudeboyXL:
Ahh, old faithful. I moved back to this kitkat Katkiss and EVERYTHING works 100% again and flies with hundreds of apps on it. Think I'll stick with this. Post kitkat ROMs are just too resource heavy for the old TF300 and in order to use later android versions, you have to be willing to sacrifice a good 60% of what the tablet is capable of, so much so that my impression of android was slowly worsening do to the bad experiences. Kitkat really was the peak for android in my opinion and has reminded me that this TF300T isn't a waste of space, it just is when I put android 5/6 or 7 on it.

Credit to [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] still for all the work he puts into getting the later android releases to run on the TF300T, but latest doesn't always mean best, especially when it comes to old hardware.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] desktopfusion:
I was thinking of switching over myself! Similar story at my end.

Didn't know what to do with the tablet (until 7.1.2 #23 recently, that is.)

Currently the 7.1.2 #23 seems okay, but the battery dies out too quickly for me.

I don't know whether it is just the age of the battery, or the ROM, or a bit of both.

I do have the tablet on Performance governor and overclocked to 1600 MHz though. :P

Did you try the #23 before switching to Kitkat?

I have had to scheduled fstrim runs twice a day to keep it nearly lag-free.

Trim app doesn't trim the f2fs data partition though.

Can't use Chrome on #23 without waiting endlessly, have to use Lightning Browser / KatBrowser, which won't sync my bookmarks though.

I don't think I'll be updating to even the next one Timduru comes up with till comments assure me it retains its speed.

But I have missed not having Xposedmod on Android N. So there's that.

Thanks for the fresh review!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] RudeboyXL:
Battery seems to last forever with Kitkat, LP/MM/N aren't even in the same league, I just love how snappy it is, I press the power button and the screen is on instantly. put PIN/Pattern in and unlocks instantly. No CPU spiking, just works. Never a moments lag. Yeah, I was on 7.1.2 v23, But I could see no difference to earlier releases, CPU hangs for a couple of minutes every time you unlock the device. opening apps lags fro 5-10 seconds etc etc, masses of games wont even run on LP/MM/N. Wifi ALWAYS reconnects even when screen is off. Xposed framework is always a plus also. to many things to mention. No regrets moving back. It was quick and simple also, since I just restored a backup.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Pdevo:
Thank you very much for this ROM, It gives new life to my old TF300T.

Everything is working fine, running smooth, battery lasts all the day, amazing work.

Liking this ROM but I'm having an issue trying to run Officesuite Pro. The app gives an error on boot and when I try to create a new document, it FC's.

I've cleared cache / app data & re-installed but still the same error.

Anyone got this working?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
Ah yeah, it will require a NonLinaro compiled libskia like on the TF101,

I'll post it soonish, you'll simply need to flash it after the rom and that should take care of that :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] maxip:
Thanks for the quick reply - I did try another libskia.so but obviously a wrong version as Android crashed & I had to re-install the ROM.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] thedexter999:
nice rom and really fast:), was using PAC but the amount of features was overkill for me

one niggle i've found with all roms is that what charging through the dock, the unit will turn itself back on and i haven't found anything to change this so far
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
Thanks :)

Yeah I prefer to add only features that are essentials and with high usability,

it helps to keep the rom light and fast :)

Pluging the charger to the dock shouldn't wake up the tablet with KatKiss, I've turned that off, that was annoying me too :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] thedexter999:
Hmm strange, just realized plugging into the dock will not wake the tablet, but i tend to leave the dock on charge all the time with the power cable and when plugging in like this it will wake the tablet. Either way its a great rom and will be using as my daily now
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] DoughMucker:
Just tried 32 and my app works now...but you probably knew that already!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] das chaos:
Awesom ROM that I use only.

There is only one problem:

I used to run CM11 Nightlies. One could flash them dirty and everything went smoothly.

When I flash KatKiss update I will have to

1. Rearrange certain system settings as keyboard, root permissions and some others from system apps, because those were obviously overwritten by the update.

2. Flash gapps anew.

Certainly I have TB'd those settings, but it is annoying having to do that after every update again.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
Flashing dirty one KatKiss version on top on another should work most of the time too unless it's a major version change.

You will however need to do a full wipe / clean flash when coming from another rom.

Did you do that when coming from CM11 ?

If there were settings / dbs left from CM11, it could create issues.

But I just flashed KatKiss 31 => 32 myself and no settings were lost.

And flashing gapps everytime after the rom is needed, yep.

that's to prevent gapps backup / restore mixups.

Just take a few extra seconds when you flash, but helps to make sure it works ;)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] das chaos:
Did the same and mine were lost.

Coming from CM11 to KatKiss I was aware, that I had to wipe full.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] k-kuchen:
timduru, you are a wizard :)

I just flashed this, and I'm really impressed. Didn't know this tablet had such potential. You did a great job

Only thing I noticed so far is, your Toolbox App crashes at boot. After that it's fine
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
Thanks :)

Ah yeah I've been able to reproduce the App crash after boot,

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:

Another tiny issue:

I have two tabs: tf300t (with KatKiss) and tf201 (with CM11)

I can connect them with bluetooth to send files

It is only possible to send from tf300t to tf201 not viceversa because bluetooth of tf300t does not allow to receive files of any format, wich CM11 allows; what settings so I have to change? Or can you fix it?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
just tried it from my phone to the TF300T and it works fine for me, as long as the file is within the accepted file types.

"Dangerous" files like apk & such are forbidden for example.

What type of file are you trying to send ?

If it's not in the list, you can basically add anything in a zip file and send the zip file,

I can also add an option to accept all file types in the next version.

static final String[] ACCEPTABLE_SHARE_INBOUND_TYPES = new String[] {

"image/*",

"video/*",

"audio/*",

"text/x-vcard",

"text/plain",

"text/html",

"application/zip",

"application/vnd.ms-excel",

"application/msword",

"application/vnd.ms-powerpoint",

};
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] das chaos:
Ah, that was the problem. I tried to send .apk files. But CM11 has an setting in menue 'accept all file types' and KatKiss not. I would appreciate it if you woiuld change those settings.

I have a TF201 I've been running the Crombi KK ROM on. Any other TF201 users ever tried that ROM? Just trying to see what the difference is between that one and this one?

Also I'm not running the F2FS I think it's called just the regular installation of Crombi. How would I go about getting my TF201 ready to install this ROM? Could any TF201 owners and users help me out? I have read every post of this topic and couldn't find the answer. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. :) Also is this ROM recommended over Crombi meaning does it run smoother/quicker? Thanks!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] JuraP:
Just do a factory reset /full wipe, flash KATKiss, FLASH SOME 4.4. COMPATIBLE NON F2FS KERNEL FOR TF201 (for example Grimkern), just to be sure you can do cache and Dalvik wipe (IMHO it's overkill, but it's recommend in this install guide) and you are good to go... In terms of performance it's this ROM the same, it's only a question of personal taste...

Hi guys,

I'm usign this rom on my TF201 (now become TF300) from yesterday; it works fine for now and I do not see critical issue.

The send file via bluetooth from my S3-CM11 work fine (just for confirm the problem pointed a few posts ago)

I notice the following:

in the settings menus the translation (I saw for the italian) not is complete (is there a way to fix it?)

the version themes are not supported yet...Is it so?

Is the CIFS support feature (drafted from timduru in the second post) managed by the rom or kernel?

Thanks at all for replies
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
Yeah everything is not translated, beside english .

If someone wants to send me the resource files with their translation, I can integrate it.

https://github.com/timduru/platform-packages-apps-Settings/tree/katkiss-4.4/res

Nope, no theme.

Kernel side, so you would need to use a TF201 kernel that supports it too,

They just need to integrate that commit:

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] auceto63:
Yes...I'll try for italian, but I have to understand how to do it.

Have you some specific software to manage xlm languages?

Where is the main strings ID?

A guide to do this?

In the future?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
yeah, I can add that in the next version.

I'm curious though, what do you want to tether through wifi, ethernet connection ?

Natively, most likely never, as I don't have a TF300TG to test.

But for data you could give a try to PPPWidget.

It works fine for TF101G users, might be worth a try for TF300TG.

Most settings strings are located in kat.xml strings.xml and quicksettings.xml

The default english valies are in https://github.com/timduru/platform-packages-apps-Settings/tree/katkiss-4.4/res/values

You would then need to grab your language specific files in the values-YOULANGUAGECODE directory

So for Italian that should be : https://github.com/timduru/platform-packages-apps-Settings/tree/katkiss-4.4/res/values-it

and transflate / add the missing files or strings in the files for your language.

then send me the files that I will place in the language directory, and that should be it. :)

xml files can just be edited as text in wordpad if you're under windows.

Just don't break the tags, and just edit/replace the strings in between the tags

Nope, sorry, that's part of the "bloat" I'm not going to add ;)

I think there are XPosed modules to add theming support to roms though,

you might want to try that if you really need theming.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] gericom66:

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] auceto63:
IMHO

If the tablet not has 3G hardware, as TF201, I think that ethernet connection is a good solution for those persons that want connect mobile phone, for example. For 3G the "inside" connection.

Ok I think I understand.

One more question:

Have I to add italian string in Italian Strings.xml file you pointed above or there is the corrispondent kat.xml for italian?

For example:

in English kat.xml I find <string name="settings_app_ops_title">Apps Advanced Permissions (AppOps)</string> not translated

Do I add the traslated string in the italian string.xml file, or I have to create an kat.xml for the italian language?

Then I think i better that I send you the file containing only the string that I added/modified so that you can add it to master file; What do you think about?

Don't worry...I'm a programmer (Not for Android OS unfortunately) ;)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] timduru:
Can't help much, never used it myself

Better ask in the PPPWidget support thread or in Q&A in case someone has already done it,

they could help you then.

If a file doesn't exists in the language directory you just copy the one from the english directory

and replace the english strings in it.

no, it would need the complete file with the strings in the italian directory.

I would just drop it there that way.
