Fast charge kernel or patch?

Nice ROM update. I installed Greenify to help with battery life + drain.

Is there a kernel (or kernel patch) to allow "fast charging", either via the tablet or dock?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Good afternoon,

I think that you should ask your question again to a kernel specialist like [MENTION=4972193]ebildude123[/MENTION] or [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] for example into their respective kernel threads : GEASS / GRIMLOCK !

Goodluck to you,

All the best

TRYOUT builds released ! (please check out post #1)

Good evening,

Tonight, i am introducing to you TRYOUT builds : these ones are a testing branch, if changes that are currently applied to it bring some improvements over regular branch, then they will be applied to this last one.

Current TRYOUT should be better than regular one because i used UBERUTILS GCC by [MENTION=5105835]Cl3Kener[/MENTION] to build the kernel (4.7) and the ROM (4.8), instead of SaberMod GCC (which is good but not frequently updated).

Enjoy ! :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Current weekly (7.6) will come as TRYOUT...

This week, build 7.6 will come as TRYOUT and let me explain to you why :

-> it is a very significant build (on my part) because

i do not use CyanogenMod source trees anymore BUT those of CROMBi-kk instead

(device+kernel). Let me thank [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] [MENTION=5123642]lj50036[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] a lot because they simply showed me THE way ! "You are awesome guys !". This implies several things... :

-> kernel of this TRYOUT is fully F2FS enabled AND is based off CM's one !

-> it has been compiled with UBERUTILS GCC 4.8 (instead of 4.7 previously)

So 7.6 should be really fast (ROM still compiled with UBERUTILS GCC 4.8) AND could benefit of F2FS at any time (the ROM installer is fully EXT4 but if you alter it a little bit, it can be turned into F2FS easily) OOTB !

Installer will be available for download shortly,

Stay tuned !
[Asus Transformer TF700] ariesting:
Flash the tryout rom but get encryption unsuccessful error after reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
noauto_da_alloc is an ext4-specific option, so that must be removed for f2fs. Not sure about barrier right now (too lazy to look it up), it may have to go away too. Read the preinit script that does it for details. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Ok I will take a look and update my post ...

Thx [MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION] your help is always the best.... :D

Regular 7.6 will be released this weekend...

Good afternoon,

TRYOUT 7.6 has been reported as working great (but autorotation does not work) so i will release a regular build of 7.6 this W.E. with autorotation fixed :cool: :good:, so there will not be any TRYOUT anymore for SlimKAT RC2 (TF700T) for the moment !

BTW if you are having any issue with fixed 7.6 (to come), please do not hesitate to report back !

(bluetooth for example...)

FYI i am having difficulties to build current weekly with SlimKAT bluetooth subsystem replaced by CyanogenMod's one (like i did for S4 mini) AND i am pulling my hairs off with 'dock battery status display' :mad: :silly: :cool:

Stay tuned ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Updated 7.6 is out !

Good evening,

Post #1 is updated with a new build of 7.6 (AndroidFileHost + xda downloads tab of this project) which should have autorotation fixed ! :cool: :victory: :fingers-crossed:

Greetings
[Asus Transformer TF700] gdselzer:
Flashed the new build and I'm getting a lot of screen distortion and flicker. Went back to the previous build and the problem is gone. Let me know what you need from me to track the bug down. Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Good afternoon,

-> your device model ?

-> your kernel version ? (installer's one, custom one => which one ?)

-> are you OCing ?

-> describe your issue precisely with details please or even better take a picture of it : screenshot AND with a camera... (in order to compare both...)

It seems that this issue is not happening for everyone...

My best regards
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
What is your recovery version ?

What is your bootloader version ?

Is this an issue others are having ?

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] gdselzer:
This is on my TF700. Before flashing, I formatted the boot, cache, system, and data partitions using CWM 6.0.4.7. I'm not using any custom kernel and I haven't gotten far enough to change settings to try to OC (or anything else, for that matter.) Bootloader is 10.6.1.14.8. To be clear, I am flashing Slim-tf700t-4.4.4.build.7.6-UNOFFICIAL-20140830-1017-NS-EXT4.zip

Video probably does a better job of explaining. The screen flickers, gets distorted, then goes back to normal for a few seconds before the issue starts again.

http://youtu.be/OnTkGIIE_KY
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Allright,

First of all, thank you for making things clear about your issue ! :good:

It would be very interesting to know if other TF700T users are experiencing the same problem than yours because TF300T version seem to be clean of it !

Now, weird behaviors have already been reported with regular / Philz CWM (display distortions), so in your position, i would give TWRP a try...

BTW is your bootloader the latest one ?

I really do not think that CROMBi-kk sources are involved since TF300T version does not come with your bug and a part of those are in common with TF700T.

Lastly AND that is my lead for your issue =>

set no wallpaper with your device and see if this is better

please BECAUSE i have disabled an option before building this release of SlimKAT (wallpaper related) that can overload the GPU AND which is TF700T specific !!!

Finally, [MENTION=5123642]lj50036[/MENTION] : Josh, could you please help me out on this one please because i am currently building TWRP updates for S4 mini ?! What do you think ?!

Kind regards
[Asus Transformer TF700] gdselzer:
I am one version back from the most up to date bootloader. I am not able to upgrade because I can't get fastboot to work on my tablet, but I have been told there is no real difference between .8 and .10.

I am also unable to get twrp as my recovery. As I said before, I can't get fastboot to work. I tried using TWRP Manager from the Play Store as well. When it tries to download, I get a "This is somewhat embarrassing, isn't it? It seems we can't find what you are looking for" message.

I have to admit that I don't know to set "no wallpaper." Can you please provide instructions? Though, I doubt that will be the issue. The image stutters and flickers when the "android" logo is loading on boot.

I do notice that the flickering stops momentarily when I touch the screen. Once I remove my finger, it starts up again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Okay,

I was thinking that the screen flickering was only once booted into Android (i must admit that i've not watched your video yet :confused:... ).

The issue is completely different indeed !

Why don't you try to flash TWRP from inside CWM with a flashable. zip of it ?

Anyway, the fact that when you do touch the screen of your device while it flickers, make the display to behave normally as a result AND starts again when you do not touch it anymore, sounds to me like a kind of hardware problem...

Maybe [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] or [MENTION=5123642]lj50036[/MENTION] have a better point of view than mine because i really do not know what to think... :confused:

Regards
[Asus Transformer TF700] gdselzer:
I realized I could install twrp through the Terminal Emulator using dd. Now I have upgraded bootloader to .10 and using twrp 2.7.1.1. I again formatted system, data, and cache and flashed the zip using twrp. Same issue.

In the process, I accidentally deleted the zip for the previous release. The previous release was, truly, buttery smooth for me. Only issue was the lack of autorotation. Can you please point me to a link for the previous release so I can load it?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Okay, i will post the link to the first 7.6 release ASAP... only a matter of minutes... ;)

UPDATE : SlimKAT RC2 for TF700T (7.6) fallback built on 2014-08-26 (not the latest one) can be downloaded HERE...

NOTE : [MENTION=2899912]gdselzer[/MENTION] and every other user that may face the issue discussed about just above =>

embedded kernel of latest 7.6 has been built with UBERUTILS GCC toolchain 4.8, against 4.7 for first 7.6 release

(2014-08-26) ! This is maybe the cause of this particular issue ! Please try latest GRIMLOCK / GEASS custom kernels out if your device is affected by this display bug, by [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] / [MENTION=4972193]ebildude123[/MENTION] and

report back if this is better

with it ! Thank you ! :mad: :cool: :angel:
[Asus Transformer TF700] gdselzer:
Looks like it's a kernel issue. Installed GRIMKERN_TF700_1.0.zip and no more flickering. Let me know what else you nee from me to resolve it. Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Well the bug seem to be narrowed down ! :good:

GCC 4.8 seem to cause erratic behavior on your device

and i do not see why it would be different on other TF700T... :confused:

Next weekly for TF700T will be built with GCC 4.7 / TF300T one will still be built with 4.8

! I will report this to CROMBi-kk team (i am using their kernel...) in order to find out exactly what is going wrong...

In my opinion you can stick with GRIMLOCK kernel (i do think that current version is 3.0 -> please search for it in CROMBi-kk thread for TF700T...).

Thank so so much for your cooperation and enjoy SlimKAT on your device ! :cowboy: :good:

I wish you all the best !
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Hey mate, Yes this is an issue with the way the kernel was build, very odd ...

Can you try this one out for me, it is just the newest version of grimlocks .....

This one is also compiles with GCC 4.7 .....

GRIMLOCK@V3.0
[Asus Transformer TF700] gdselzer:
V3.0 works as well.

Where do I go to adjust kernel settings? Settings>Performance seems to be missing.

BTW, THANK YOU very much for putting this ROM together. My tf700 has been a piece of junk for a while now. Tried CROMBI-kk and CM 11, but neither worked well. On Slim, we're finally back to a smooth running device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
I had the same corruption/flickering but I don't think it had to do with UberUTILS. It only occurred when I changed the DPI. It must have been only the kernel/ display drivers.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Good evening,

Like you, i really do not think that UBERUTILS (UU) toolchain itself is responsible of this bug... i think that it is a matter of some incompatibility between CROMBi-kk kernel source code for TF700T and UU GCC 4.8 because :

-> if CROMBi-kk TF700T kernel is compiled with UU GCC 4.7 then the bug does not occur

-> CROMBi-kk kernel for TF300T does not suffer of it either even if compiled by UU GCC 4.8

BTW [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] v3 compilation optimizations which are applied as recommended while building my SlimKAT ports may also be involved in this situation in my opinion...

Finally and ATM i have two choices :

-> build TF700T CROMBi-kk kernel with Google GCC 4.8, or...

-> build it with UU GCC 4.7...

What do you think about it ?!

Cheers

NB

: UBERUTILS GCC toolchain by [MENTION=5105835]Cl3Kener[/MENTION] is really a great one ! Thanks to him for the amazing job that he has done with it ! :cowboy: :cool: :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Malave:
Using the latest build with GRIMLOCK 3.0. Everything is fast and smooth.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Great ! Thank you for reporting back ! :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
I'm not sure what JA optimizations actually entail but did you ask the previous poster if they changed the DPI, did any restoring of system apps/ data or are using any modding apps? I think that might be the problem that it's complely on their end. Also they should update to the lastest TWRP found on the teamwin website

EDIT: Read his post. This is most likely due to faulty bootloader/ recovery. NOTHING to do with UBERutils I'm not sure why they think a ROM would effect the bootloader/recover.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Hi,

First 7.6 release has been built with UU GCC 4.7 / 4.8 ( kernel / ROM), against 4.8 / 4.8 for current one ! That is the differnce because even if DPI was changed, my guess is that it would likely not affect display during early boot (splashscreen), don't you think ? And that is the case... Furthermore, if DPI was involved, i think that switching from embedded kernel to any CUSTOM one would have no effect at all on this bug..., and it seems that flashing a custom kernel (tested with GRIMLOCK) makes the display to act as expected again ! In my opinion, embedded kernel of current 7.6 is faulty, now the origin of it has to be determined and that is far away my skills...

BTW, i do agree with you that running latest TWRP version is a good habit... :p :cool: :good:

Anyway, [MENTION=2899912]gdselzer[/MENTION] : Just to be sure about it : did you set DPI to a value different from 240 ? Thank you !

Be well !
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Haha, I don't know if it is coincident or not but I did comment about this issue earlier and was ignored by you. I had an exactly problem like the user above when I used the linaro gcc-4.8. The gcc-4.9 was even worst because the screen was flashing on and off like a flashing light. However, the gcc-4.7 is working perfectly with exactly the same setting on all three toolchains. I applied all the patches that I could find for the gcc toolchains but it did not help. There were no error during compiling the gcc toolchains or kernel. I don't know enough to fix this issue and hope that some experts will have a solution to this new toolchains. In short, gcc-4.8/4.9 can not be used for the tf700t for a moment at least on my builds until someone finds out what is going. I hope that helps....:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] DanRo80:
Just flashed GRIMLOCK 3.0 and it seems to be fine and void of flickering now.

Thanks Guys
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
I think it's the CM11 kernel not playing nice with 4.8. I think that if Grimlock's kernel is compiled it should be fine.

---------- Post added at 08:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 PM ----------
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
It could be the CM11 kernel source code was a problem but I used Hund's kernel source code and had an exactly problem like the video the user post earlier above. I used my own compiled linaro gcc-4.8 with all the latest updates from ng-ct site and latest dependencies from linaro site for the gcc-4.8....:confused: I could not do anything to it right now until understanding about the issues a little bit better.. It is just my opinion and want to share it here in hope that someone can help....:fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
I woudln't take his issue too seriously unless he updated bootloader/ recovery. Also maybe try Grimlocks kernel instead, the CM11 is likely the problem. All Grimlocks is probably more optimized
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
First of all, all my apologies to you if you did feel that i was ignoring your feedback... that is not the case ! I am just... overloaded at work and... having less time to give to Android... that is all ! :angel: :cool: Furthermore, i am quite on my own to deliver support across my SlimKAT ports... and that is very time consuming...

Now, it is clear that :

-> UU GCC 4.8 works great for ROM compiling : no drawbacks, all good ! I will probably give UU GCC 4.9 a go for building a ROM as a TRYOUT !

-> UU GCC 4.7 should be used for compiling CyanogenMod's TF700T kernel for the moment, rather than 4.8 because of the display bug which is a symptom of the kernel to be faulty ! (BUT this issue is specific to CM-11.0 kernel for TF700T because building the one for TF300T with UU GCC 4.8 is not a problem at all...)

=> This issue does not seem to be specific to UBERUTILS toochain, i will give a go to SaberMod GCC 4.8 to compile CROMBi-kk kernel for TF700T as a TRYOUT in order to see if it is better ! :cowboy: :cool : :good:

Hi ;),

Yes ! I do agree with you that this issue is specific to CM-11.0 kernel for TF700T because TF300T plays fine with UU GCC 4.8. And this incompatibilty does not seem to be only for UU; i will give SM GCC 4.8 a go to see if it is better !

My best regards

Since GRIMLOCK kernel is working fine and is compiled with GCC 4.8 AFAIK, i do think that you should ask for assistance to [MENTION=2158597]hardslog[/MENTION] (GL DEV) from CROMBi-kk team... by posting your very interesting concerns to CROMBi-kk DEV thread for TF700T; or even better, to GRIMLOCK trhread for TF700T !

Please keep me informed about it...

NB : Of course you can mention the fact that i am experiencing same problems as yours with CROMBi-kk kernel for TF700T ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
I am more concerning about bothering the developers than anything and here to learn with an open minded. I will let you know if I can find anything valuable about gcc-4.8/4.9 for compiling kernel... I am currently working on the newer version of linux kernel that I believe it is more compatible with kitkat than the 3.1.10 which is meant for JB. I get all the conflicts and errors out of the way and still need to deal with 3 mismatches to work on. I still need some more researches for these issues to finish what I want...:) After finishing this project, I will find a time to talk to hardslog and hope that I can learn something from him.. Thanks for suggestion....;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
Oh are you merging 3.1.53? :) :fingers-crossed:

No, I am targetting v3.4.x because it seems like kitkat is using v3.4.x in that time frame....:D

[MENTION=5280400]ne0zone75[/MENTION]

Is sabermod toolchain gcc-4.7 that you are using for kernel "linux_andoideabi"?
[Asus Transformer TF700] DanRo80:
I am constantly receiving the notification "com.android.systemui has stopped" after restoring non-system apps and data with Titanium Backup. Does this mean that one or more apps are not playing nicely with the ROM?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
No ! I am using [MENTION=5105835]Cl3Kener[/MENTION] UBERUTILS all the way ;)... and i am following [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] building recommendations by using 4.8 for both arm-eabi and linux-androideabi as far as it is possible... of course i may use SaberMod ones as a fallback under some circumstances...

Good morning,

Do you have a NANDROID backup of your /data ? (imaged /data partition from recovery...)

Anyway, from where comes your TB backup please ? (which ROM, which version)

Lastly, which runtime are you using ? dalvik or ART ? If it's ART then switch back to dalvik... thank you ! If it's already dalvik then go to 'settings/applications' Android menu and search for SystemUI APP, then click on it in order to show its details; now, click on the 'clear data' button and confirm your choice by clicking 'OK'. Finally, reboot to recovery and wipe /dalvik + /cache and reboot to system afterwards !

Please let me know about the result...

I build with GCC 4.7 and never really bothered to try anything else

Also want to mention that the newest Grimlock kernel is merely a fork of the CM11 kernel for the TF700, which is a JB fork from Asus (which Hundsbuah's is as well) so if anything higher than 4.7 gives issues on one kernel, it will probably do it for all of them.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Thanks hardslog for confirming on the gcc-4.8/4.9. I did have some graphical issues when using gcc-4.8/4.9 but the 4.7 is working perfectly. Do you know or heard anything about those issues on tf700? What did you set for all the flags on your toolchain during compiling it? Would you like to share your knowledge about the toolchain that you build so everyone can benefit from it? If you like, I can open a thread so we can all discuss about it....:D
[Asus Transformer TF700] ne0zone75:
Good evening and thank you for the clarification. I certainly have mismatched with another one... not aimed for the Transformer series !!! Like f4ktion kernel for the S4 mini series... all my apologies for this ! :confused:

I have already built weekly 7.8 for TF700T with SaberMod arm-eabi 4.8 (kernel) and files are ready to share (i just need to update downloads links of post #1)... the kernel will certainly be faulty too... re :confused:
