[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
SLEEEPY2 - Performed the "TB All User Apps Backup" last night. Seems to have worjed beautifully! Thank You So Much!!! Will let you know how "Restore" goes.

SBDAGS - Performed the "CWM & BootLoader Update" just now. Didn't work. It updated CWM to 6.0.5.1, but it did NOT update the BootLoader, which is still at 10.26.1.18 (from V6.1 install).

I then tried installing it from the Ext SD Card (some require that), but with the same result).

Let me ask you... What did you mean by "Flash" it?

I used (as I mentioned) the "Install from Zip" method. Is that wrong? Did you mean some kind of "ADB" command done to it while connected to my Laptop instead?

If so, what is that command, please (I can do it)? And would it be the exact same command for the "ROM-V7.ZIP" file?

I can do this if I know exactly what to do. Please, just talk to me like I'm 6 and don't assume that I'm smart enough to already know any of the steps. <lol!> Hahaha!

I do already have the ADB utility on my Laptop and the Samsung & Asus drivers (my Laptop already does recognizes my phone and Asus TF701T).

Don't worry! I really am writing every step down on my phone this time, so that I won't ever have to bother you again about doing this and bookmarking your instructions (and Sleeepy2's) so that I can do that and double-check them! I will also send them to you, to save you time with other users in the future. :)

Would you please tolerate me just one last time (sorry for bothering you so much!) and tell me (Slowly! <lol!>) what to do to get this done the right way?

I currently have on my ASUS TF701T, the following setup:

CWM 6.0.5.1

BootLoader 10.26.1.18

ROM CROMi-X V6.1 (DEODEXED w/JB 4.3)

If so, then I THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! ... once again!!!
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Flash it again please. Did you reboot after?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Okay, but first, by "Flash", you mean, "Install Zip", right?

Yes, I did reboot from the Recovery after it said it was done and then rebooted again, just to be sure.

CWM did update to 6.0.5.1, but the Bootloader (where it says "Build Number") still says 10.26.1.18

I have tried it 4 times now and don't know what else to do with it.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Ah ok Build Number is not the boot loader version. That is the build that CROMi-X 6.1 was based on.

The only way to read the bootloader version is from the upper left of the the actual bootloader screen when you boot with volume down and power held :)

So trust me you will have the right bootloader - now flash the rom (install zip) ;)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Okay, repeat after me.....

"Dave's an idiot!"

I told ya I might be too stupid for this. :)

Thanks! # is right!
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Okay, new problem though.....

I went into SuperSU and it said to "Update the Binary", which I did, then Rebooted. I've done this many times, with no problems.

But when I went into SuperSU again, it said that the "SU Binary is missing and I cannot install it".

But before panicking, I booted into Recovery again and when I went to reboot out of it, it did what I was hoping it would and asked if I wanted it to Fix the SU issue. I said Yes and it did! :)

So if anyone runs into this.....

Oddly, before... It said (Root Check) that it was Rooted.

Anyway, I assume I'm running your V7.03 and so far, all is well! Now gotta test for Ext SD Write Access. :)

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Btw, I went with the "pershoot/sbdags" Kernel, because they're both names that I greatly respect!!!

Just for kicks, does that one OC? I know, I just won't let that go, will I! Hahaha!

But seriously, it has to do with my OCD. I havè a thing about numbers ending in "9", like my Tab's "1.9 GHz".

Seriously, if it already ran at 2.0, I honestly wouldn't care about OC'ing it then. :)

---------- Post added at 09:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

UPDATE!!!: IT'S DOING IT AGAIN!!!

Going into a Rooted app says that Root access cannot happen.

Go into SuperSU and it says;

"There is no SU Binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem! If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually Re-Root."

Oddly enough, my "Root Check" app still says that I am Rooted.

Have you seen this before? Why would it say 4.3 ??? Going into CPU-Z shows that I am running 4.4.2

Any ideas???
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Well, ended up doing a Wipe/Reset, which would have been ok, except as you know, when you first set up, Google Play Store is set to Auto-Update and it tries to install all of your apps again, which again, would have been ok, except that when I went in and disable that, it still kept installing every app I'd ever bought. Of course it did! Hahahahaha! :)

Anyway, I do feel a lot more comfortable knowing that I have my TB User App Backup and can uninstall them and just restore from that! :)

Just one question... Does anyone know how to change which Home Screen shows when you boot up? Samsung has its "Edit Page" from the Menu, but I can't find it on my TF701T Tablet.

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Well, I think I finally figured it ot! Everything kept going fine, until I would run SetCPU! I don't use it for OC'ing on my TF701T, but for just in case it runs hot (it backs it down), or for when I play a game, it kicks the CPU into Performance Mode and I use it to set the storage to "Deadline", etc., etc..

It worked fine with your V6.1 ROM, but apparently, it doesn't like the V7.03 (or vice-versa), because it hoses everything when I run it and there is no recovery!

So I think my original attempt to "Update to V7" actually did work and it got hosed when I ran SetCPU!

But I'm going to wipe it again. Since iths already wiped and I deleted what the wipe didn't get, why not start from scratch and keep it light this time? :)

I'll do it when I wake up tonight, without installing SetCPU. I'll know in fairly short order for sure if that was it or not and I'll let you know either way. But I really do think I've got it now.

And look, it only took me 12 hours to figure it out! Damn, I'm FAST!!! :)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

TTYL! :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Sleeepy2:
Just an FYI for titanium back up, on a new install after google play installs your apps. Just use the same restore and do data only. That way all of your settings get restored.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Okay [data = settings], thanks! :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
SetCPU is not supported. In fact none of the kernels support over clocking. If you want to tweak then use trickster mod. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
I said in my post that I wasn't using it for OC'ing. It has other purposes as well.

Obviously, you're right about this ROM not supporting it for OC'ing. But it goes beyond that. Just run SetCPU once and it hoses tge ROM! No fix! You have to perform a Wipe and start from scratch!

I would like to OC though. What is "Trickster Mod"? Does it install an OC'able Kernel?

Thanks for trying to again be of help to me! Awesome support!!! :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
SetCPU is old old tech. I'm not surprised it doesn't work. It was for android around the time of froyo or gingerbread.

There are no apps that can OC this device as none of the kernels support it. You'll have to give up that quest.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Yea, it actually does work with some KitKat devices, but not others I guess.

I use it on my Mega phone. It's running on the OEM ROM, but for some reason, it runs hot sometimes and it's slow with some games. So I do the following:

CPU or BATT rises beyond "X" C, then the Max Speed gets capped at 1GHz until it cools down and then goes back to my "Default" setup.

When specific apps load (some games, astronomy), the CPU changes to "Performance" and the Min Speed gets bumped up to 7xx MHz and the Max Speed is knocked down one notch, to avoid overheating. And once I exit the app, it reverts back to my "Default" setup.

As for my Default setup, I bump the Min Speed up a bit, change the CPU from "OnDemand" to "Interactive" and the "I/O" from "cpq" to "Deadline". These settings do make some difference in performance and the change, for the somewhat modest performance boost and the added protection (from overheating related issues) for my device, make it well worth the small/tiny amount of RAM sacrificed. :)

Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending SetCPU. It's old and crusty and in serious need of an update!

All I'm saying is that if it does work with your device, then it does serve a purpose and can be helpful.

But knowing what I know now, since what just happened on my Asus, would I risk putting it on another device with a newer version of Android? Heck no!!! :)

Btw, so far, without running SetCPU on it, it's running fine, no problem!
[Asus Transformer TF701] prophetjinn:
Does anyone have problem waking the TF with the lock key? I can wake it fine within a few minutes of it being awake however after about 10 minutes, the lock key doens't turn on the device anymore. i have to use the physical tablet button. I enabled the lock function during the aroma install, so it's not mapped to forward delete.

It's almost like it's in deep sleep. anyone come up with a solution?
[Asus Transformer TF701] meldrak:
Hi sbdags, a newcomer to TF701 ;) bye my old TF201

Thanks for the rom
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Well, that's it for me! I'm giving up on this ROM! As you know, I was having trouble with receiving the msg in SuperSU saying that there's "no SU.Bin installed" and apps that need Root wouldn't work. Nothing would fix it, not even reinstalling the ROM.

I thought I narrowed it down to "SetCPU" and I ended up Factory Wiping my tablet, manually deleting apps' leftovers etc., to make the tablet super clean. I then installed your ROM again (both Zips).

It seemed to work fine after that (NO SetCPU) and I even decided to manually install my apps again, so everything will be fresh & clean. In fact, it was running so well, that I even deleted my 4.3 NanDroid backup! :)

But now, all of the sudden today, it happened again (every other boot)! I tried fixing the problem with the two Zips and even tried the latest SuperSU "Update.Zip", but with no luck! And this was after almost a full day (the 2nd day) of working on my tablet!

Going thru all of this makes it rough on me physically because I have to sit up to do it, which means that I end up going thru my meds twice as fast (which I'll have to make up for painfully later), so I can't just keep playing with it day after day.

Of course, now I have no way to easily get back to 4.3

Can I assume though, that if I wipe and want to go back to your v6 ROM, that having the newer Bootloader won't cause any problems?
[Asus Transformer TF701] prophetjinn:
why don't you try it? you can always restore.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Not to be rude, but please read ALL of a post B4 responding.

No, I cannot restore. There's nothing to restore from.

And why would I now make a backup of what doesn't work?
[Asus Transformer TF701] prophetjinn:
Make a working backup of latest? Sorry but was that not obvious?

You're having strange problems but if it doesn't work with latest firmware then restore from a working ROM.... Do you need a picture?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
AGAIN... Not to be rude, but you again did NOT read even that short little message!

I will be glad to discuss this with you, but ONLY AFTER you read BOTH messages FULLY AND CAREFULLY and then respond to what I ACTUALLY SAID.

I'm not going to sit here and explain my explanation to you. Especially when, with all due respect, you just proved that even a few sentences is too much in your mind, for you to be bothered with reading.

If that offends you, my apologies. That's not my goal. I'm simply stating the facts displayed above.

And so, just FYI, I'm not going to argue back and forth. As I just said, if you read what I wrote without rushing and respond to what I actually said, instead of what you assumed I was going to say (but didn't), then I will be happy to discuss it with you and as far as I'm concerned, this exchange between us never happened! But if you do the same thing again, then YOU will NOT get any response AT ALL from me.

---------- Post added at 03:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 AM ----------

<To Everyone> What I did try, that I just remembered just a little bit ago (after posting my other message), is that "sbdags" put out a Beta of v7.1.

So I went with that, since his brilliant installs only take like 10-15 min, start to finish and besides, whaddo I got to lose, right? :)

So I installed it, this time using the default res, etc., which (install) turned out to be even faster and smoother (due to "default selected" Extreme Kernel???), which I didn't think was even possible, 'cause V7.03 was cruisin'! :)

My compliments to the chef!!! :)

Anyway, I've rebooted a number of times and so far, so good! :)

I'll keep you updated. Wow! I really hope this one works for me! It's got V7.03 beat for performance, even with the higher 2560X1600 (?) Resolution! I mean it's just butter smooth!!! :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] prophetjinn:
aside from apparently not reading your last post (which i did) why wouldn't you try the latest beta?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
As I said in my last post, I installed CROMi-X V7.1 Beta4 and I just now did a NanDroid Backup (CWM 6.0.5.1) of a working V7.1B4 and when I rebooted afterward, the problem cropped up again, immediately!

Now I'm wonderibg if CWM is the issue! And just yeaterday I read about someone having a somewhat similar problem to mine and he was told that in truth, there actually is no compatible CWM Recovery for the TF701T/KK and that he needs to switch to TWRP. Someone else (the responder?) did and that solved his problem.

Hey, ut's worth a try! Does anyone know what TWRP version (and hopefully where to get it) is compatible with the TF701T w/KK Tablet, please, please, please???
[Asus Transformer TF701] SonjaMichelle:
TWRP does not work on the TF701T.

There has been some work on it but nothing functional. See here.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Hey, thanks for that, SM! That saves me time! :)

What's weird about both of these ROMs (V7.03 & V7.1B4), is that this issue that I'm having ("SuperSU cannot find the 'SU.Bin' file"), is that it occurs on every OTHER Reboot.

So if Reboot #1 goes fine, then Reboot #2 will exhibit the problem, Reboot #3 will again by fine, Reboot #4 will exhibit the problem again and so on and so forth.

I have never seen anything like this! It's insane! :)

And as I said, I had even wiped the device and had gone through the sub-folders under the /Android/data & /Android/obb folders, to make sure there were no "app leftovers" to mess with a fresh install.

Everything for the install was done "to the letter", "by the book" and I even consulted with sbdags before proceding.

Plus, I had been using his V6 ROM (JB 4.3) for a long time on this same device without any problems! And I've installed plenty of ROMs on plenty of devices, so it's not like I'm a newbie at this.

Lastly, my wife has THE SAME EXACT DEVICE. And I tried installing the V7.03 ROM on her device and guess what? SAME PROBLEM!

Something has to be missing here! It's not just my device any more! And I can't believe that the ROM gods have singled just me out for the purpose of human frustration! <lol!>
[Asus Transformer TF701] Sleeepy2:
I am by far no expert so I am just guessing however have you updated SU through the play store to get the latest? Then once you have the latest updated the binaries in the SU app?

Again I am just guessing...
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Well JB 4.3 and KK 4.4 are different in the way they enforce security through SELINUX and SuperSU has its own SEPOLICY. I'm guessing that you have either updated the su binmaru through the buggy CWM (you should never do this when it prompts you - it is just a bug) or you have updated SuperSU through the playsstore and it has caused issues?

I can't replicate the behaviour on mine if I leave su alone.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Oh and P.S., why would the problem only display itself after every OTHER boot? And on the other boots, SuperSU not have any problems?

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

I have found an update available for SuperSU in the Google Play Store and installed it, yes, of course. I also own Pro and installed it as well.

But here's the thing... That has never caused a problem on any device I've installed a KitKat ROM onto, including the phone I'm typing this message on (KK 4.4.4).

The only other device that I've had a SuperSU issue on like this, is my wife's tablet, which is the exact same one as mine, when I put your V7 ROM on it.

And just FYI, I just tried uninstalling the SuperSU Update and Pro and reinstalled your ROM and left SuperSU alone and still, every other boot, the same "ZuperSU cannot find the SU.Bin file" appeared and no Rooted apps will work!

There has got to be something going on with these V7 ROMS! I simply refuse to believe that the "rom gods" chose to single me out, but only on 2 identical tablets (one was even wiped) and only when installing your V7 ROMS! :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
No it is because you are updating it from the play store - simple as that. If you want to do it that way - flash the downloadable zip they provide and keep it up to date via that. The latest version is 2.46.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Please read what I write! I JUST SAID the following:

1) I JUST TRIED uninstalling the Pro and the update fron the Play Store and then reinstalled your ROM and after that, DID NOT update SuperSU from the Play Store and I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM!

2) I have installed a number of KitKat ROMS (including on the device I'm typing on now) and have NEVER had this problem on them and I do update SuperSU thru the Play Store!

And FYI, SuperSU should not get hosed because you do that! I'm sorry, but whether you want to hear it or not, that's how it is!

Proof? You cannot Root your device by installing SuperSU from the Play Store! That means that it gets updated in the Play Store specifically for users that already have it on their Rooted systems to update SuperSU with!

Think about what you're saying! You're saying that "The SuperSU update app is not compatible with SuperSU!". So they just put it there to hose up peoples' devices for kicks?!

And what about the device I'm typing on right now?! And the posts from other ROM developers saying the opposite of what you just said?

*** Read the OP for the link you just provided! They say that one of your options on your Rooted device is to install 2.46 from the Google Play Store and they give you a link to it there right in their OP!!!

I'm sorry man, you're a strong developer, but this time you're wrong. And before you say anything, go up and read #1 again! You're responding from a position of being defensive. Please be logical! I'm not attacking you personally here! The caps are there for emphasis, not shouting. I told you that a long time ago. :)

If I go and install a CM ROM and update SuperSU thru the Play Store and it keeps working, will you believe that you're wrong and that something's going on with your ROM then?

And FYI, I DID try the SuperSU 2.46 Update Zip and it still had the same issue!

SOMETHING IS WRONG, SIR!!! 2 Tablets say so!
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Wow. Just Wow.

You are on your own mate.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Um, what? Dude, I've been on my own. Or did you think that ignoring what I say and telling me to try what I just finished saying that I just tried is somehow help?

I did eeverything you said. And when I posted that I did it, you ignored that and acted like I wasn't being cooperative. The thread speaks for itself. Anyone who rèads thru it objectively will see that I am telling thee truth. I did everything that you even mentioned in passing, immediately and reported the re$ults, which as I said, got ignored!

The truth is, you know I'm right about this, but can't do the right thing and admit it.

I'm going to put a different ROM on, update it thru the Play Store and when it all works fine, I'll post that here. Not for you, because you've demonstrated that you won't be honest about it and admit it. But rather, for the benefit of others.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Devolution1x:
Can't say I had your issue. His rom is spot on other than random resets. Sure it isn't something on your end?

Sbdags, speaking of updates, any new updates past beta 4? You kinda didn't finish skinning the notification bar. :P
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
There's a reason that fellow is on my ignore list ;)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Thanks for your comment. Yea, I wondered that early on. But as I said in a previous post (maybe a few pages back), I grabbed my wife's (exact same) tablet and tried it on hers and had the exact same issue.

On a slightly different note, I installed his other ROM (CROMBi-kk) and enabled Root and have booted it a dozen times with no problems! That one is CM based.

Hey, quick and very stupid question... How do you create more Home Screen pages? I can't remember on the Asus and can't find it.

Feel free to begin your answer with; "Well, dumbass...". :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] dragon_rckr:
+1! Been running it smoothly with a dirty flash and no issue whatsoever. The only thing that might seem a bit buggy is Youtube playback that gets pixelated or with distortion on the video but audio plays well. Had this as well on CROMI KK 7.03, think I got it fixed by running fix permisions on ROM toolbox... need to give it a shot again.

On other note... [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] Are you planning on porting over ZombiePOP from 700? Know they're different builds and all... would be nice to have some Lolipop on 701 :D
[Asus Transformer TF701] Devolution1x:
"Well dumbass" isn't exactly professional. lol

[Asus Transformer TF701] loner.:
Although I use stock (because of circumstances I created). I do love test driving you Roms on the TF700 as well as the TF701 and have for a long time. Why? Because you put out the very best work for these devises. I am like a child at Christmas every time you release a update or something new! I believe most of use feel this way. Keep up the high standard as usual and try not to let things get you down. You and yours have had a lot on your plate lately. Bless you and yours and remember some people have more issues than others and some never figured out what Beta means, obviously. :)

It reboots frequently on me, is stuttery and google play store is very flakey. But wifi and bluetooth work as do most things.

I have a dock btw so you will have to try harder! :p
