Ok so here's probably a dumb question. Im running ROM2SD now with the correct partitioning. If I want to clean install, how do I do the equivalent of "factory wipe" on the SD card? Previously I would just click factory wipe and then install the rom, im guessing now that its on SD i have to do something different...
[Asus Transformer TF700] ishamm:
Does this have a theme engine, to use an L based theme for example? Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboyinlycra:
I've read through the entire thread a couple of times to see of anyone else experiences this but if I have my pad turned off and plug the charger in, it boots up. Also noticed that the AOSP keyboard won't register gesture typing even though it's ticked not sure that this is the fault of the ROM as it also happens on carbonROM on my old s2

Neither of these are biggies just wondered of anyone else has this
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
#1 is normal behaviour for this device - it has always done that.

#2 It's a bug in the keyboard. Again it's been like that for a long time as far as I know. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboyinlycra:
Cheers for that. Do you know I've never noticed the power on thing at all before. Maybe it has always been switched on in the past
[Asus Transformer TF700] C288:
I was thinking about the theme thing again and wanted to ask how did you make the red theme. Because if someone wanted to theme it they could do it the same way you did. Or someone could make a script. :)

Edit: And just another thought about the second battery problem. Since the problem with root was fixed by using the ramdisks from cm11, couldn't you just take the battery drivers or something from cm11 also.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It's way more complicated than that for the battery. Have a look at the source code required to build a full rom here ; :)

There are currently 30 repositories open to build the source properly.

https://github.com/orgs/Zombi-X/dashboard

As for the theme. You need to learn how to decompile an apk file, then you can replace the png images in the res folders as well as edit the colour codes in the relevant xml files, recomplie, sign the apk and you have a new set of colours. It's not difficult to do once you know what you are doing but easy to mess up :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] zabolots:
Anyone know if Chromecast screen mirroring works with this ROM? I know that it doesn't work with CM11 so we're out of luck with CROMI-KK but was wondering if this would be a reason to move over to ZOMBI-X...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I heard it doesn't work on this either.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
As far as I can tell its some kind of implementation of the terga3 and the way CC mirroring works ... :rolleyes:

More to read ....

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
Hi all. I can take this question to the Crombi kk Q&A forum if that is best. My issue started with an attempt to install and run Zombi-x. I was running crombi-kk with rom2sd with now real issues. I had crombi-kk with _that's kernel and data formatted ext4. My external card is formatted fat/f2fs/ext4. All was good. I was seduced by the reports of no lag with zombi-x. I have nandroid backups for both environments using rom2sd1 to get to the external config.

I wiped data and then did an factory reset prior to installing zombi-x. The install completed and I rebooted. Then the system cycled through the 4 penguin screen and the twrp splash sceen. I figured that the recovery was corrupted so I installed twrp 2.7.1.1 using the fastboot method documented in the OP. I stayed in twrp and tried to restore and it failed. I noticed then that system, cache, and data wouldn't mount. I've tried to repair the internal partitions, but it fails with a message that it can't mount the partitions.

I'm kind of stuck there. I tried doing an install of combi-kk 8/10 and aroma gets to an attempt to recursively set permissions and fails. I'll upload the install log aws soon as I can get the sd card on a system that can network.

Any thoughts?

Thanks! :fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] has mentioned a few bugs with 2711 and I had a little trouble also. Formatting data was way too fast. I just did this whole procedure with my office mate's tab also, so it's fresh in my mind. I noticed that after installing zombi with 2711 on her tab, it would get into a bootloop back to twrp 261... Weird!

What I did was to install _that's TWRP from the OP, reboot, then format data again, waaaaaaaaaaait, reboot, factory reset, install. AFAIK, the reboots are needed to prevent mounting issues. _that'll work... lol.. sorry, couldn't resist... :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
I know benchmarks aren't always a true representation of user experience, however, getting 8785 using ART with F2FS on internal and a little personal preference tweaking puts a big smile on my face. :laugh:

Edit: That is at full resolution as well

Edit 2: I believe this was actually WAS flashed to external sdcard. Have now realized tat Ive somehow been stuck in ROM2SD mode after updating to TWRP 2.7.1.1 Regardless, awesomesauce!
[Asus Transformer TF700] NapalmDawn:
Hi folks. Wanted to double check my upgrade path here in coming up from cromi (the JB version)

Once I download the rom and Flashable TWRP 2.6.3-that3 By that - place both on the external SD

Flash the recovery from my existing recovery. Reboot into new recovery. Create a back up of the old rom

Wipe caches, wipe data

Install the new zombi rom

Reboot and let it cook for 10 mins

All done?

Awhile back in the cromi thread, I thought I recall somebody referring to the 701 as a huge disappointment compared to the 700. Is the 701 not really a good upgrade to the 700? Not really looking to swap a 700 for a 701 but I was curious to know if the 701 was a bad device or something.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
That looks good - but I would recommend formatting data instead of wiping when making the big leap. It takes a while, don't panic!
[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
Doesn't take very long to settle. By the time I make some adjustments to my settings and turn off Googles updates its ready to rock. Would recommend using F2FS for data as well. I haven't even bothered to try it on external SD yet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
OMBi?

Hey, thought I'd finally ask... is there a meaning behind the names "CROMBi..." and "ZOMBi" ?

Seems like there's an acronym in there.

Anyway, updated my sig to reflect ZOMBi on my tf700t. There is no additional lag on the device since I changed over. It's as snappy as the day I installed it!
[Asus Transformer TF700] NapalmDawn:
Thanks Ozark. I'll give it a go.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
Believe you me, I tried and I failed miserably and broke everything :). Getting the second dock battery to show actually takes THOUSANDS of lines of code to get it to work properly. OmniRom has an official repo for the TF300 and there is no dock battery icon for that either. I'm not going to say it will never work, but it is a longshot indeed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] workdowg:
Deleted... ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Clean ROM was the starter.... CROM. As I inherited that I invented CROMi. As that progressed and morphed, Clean ROM Inheritance became CROMi-X (xenogenesis - look it up ;) ). When I contacted lj50036 to start a new rom base he originally created the source from the CMB cm11 base. Hence CROMBi-kk was born. (Originally we called it CROMBi-X)Then when we had the chance to do an omni based ROM it became ZOMNi. Which quickly turned into ZOMBi and finally ZOMBi-X.

History lesson over. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
Thanks Scotty! //smile This is the best forum community on XDA!

09/09/14 - I've tried flashing _that's TWRP from the OP and I get looping TWRP starts. It appears that the partitions are blown. I ran across a thread for using a flash-all.sh script in [Script][Linux/Windows_7/8][TF700T][Firmware][Bootloader][Stock_Rom]. The thread is closed. Is the script still useful? Thx!
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Xenogenesis

Pronounced:

zen-uh-jen-uh-sis

The supposed generation of offspring completely and permanently different from the parent.

That sounds a lot like a 'FORK' to me ..... :o
[Asus Transformer TF700] techcrazy101:
Nice

Just flashed this rom it is amazingly fast. Smoothest rom for my tf700t compared to all the rest, i love the boot animation also :). Only problems i encountered so far is that the tablet reboots every time u enable screen recording. Thanks for this rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboyinlycra:
Weirdly, while my pad was sitting doing nothing but charge, this morning it had a crash and generated a bug report.

Not sure if it's of any interest to you guys. I was actually away from my desk with the pad sitting there with the screen off while it charged and when I came back and woke it, it wanted to send a bug report.
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
Yeah the same thing happened to me. But I highly doubt anything went wrong with my tab. It's a bug within a bug reporting mechanism lol. [Insert conspiracies here]
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
Did you get it working? Did you use the fastboot install for _that's TWRP?

---

My office mate is using the dock on her Zombi tab - but is unable to turn the touchpad off - is that normal? I don't have a dock so can't test it over here...
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
It is normal if you flashed the Grimlock Kernel. _that's kernel should be able to turn the touchpad off right now, and the next update will have the Grimlock kernel able to disable it as it is fixed but not updated yet :).
[Asus Transformer TF700] duckredbeard:
I am not sure what is causing this but everything about my tablet is laggy. Keyboard slow to appear, apps slow to open, Nova launcher slow to open drawer and change pages. It seemed fine for a couple of days after flashing beta 6. I'm going to do the full wipe and format data today. Is the format data process done in recovery available in TWRP?
[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
Its still a beta. There's a lot of little things that need fixed that are going on in the background. Add Google's services looking for updates and monitoring other data and its going to slow down. Be patient. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] duckredbeard:
Never had it run THIS slow.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Do a clean install... :cyclops:

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
That'll work! b7 is better but you might get by with a cache / dalvik wipe - but nuthin' beats the data format.
[Asus Transformer TF700] duckredbeard:
This was a clean install. Factory reset, wiped data, cache, dalvik.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Post a logcat after the lagginess and it should show what it was doing. A full data format is a guaranteed way of getting speed back though (not a wipe)
[Asus Transformer TF700] duckredbeard:
I just did the format data. Wow. That took out everything. Fortunately I had beta 3 on the SD card. Getting 7 now and will move it to SD card for install.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
You do not need to move it to your Interrnal SD card. With TWRP or CWM you can flash from your external SD card.
[Asus Transformer TF700] duckredbeard:
I downloaded it using the tablet. Figured I would copy it to the external and do another format data. The format data cleaned out my download folder earlier.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You don't need to format /data again. It's clean as a whistle already ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] duckredbeard:
Data format only took about 30 minutes or less for me. Restart and reinstallation of apps went super fast also. Had some file transfer issues until I rebooted again. Everything is smooth again!

hi

I install this rom - thanks all the ones who make it possible:)

when I push setting its closed. this happened after I flashed asus apps...

any ideas please?

cause I cant enter to settings...
[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
You could pull a logcat first to help diagnose what the actual problem is.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nate39:
This is a known problem. I just installed Polaris and Supernote and left the other Asus apps alone and it works fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] kansasboy001:
The current Asus apps are for crombikk only. You can use them on zombix just don't install settings, clock, or nav bars. I have zombix specific versions of 1.9.4 and 2.0 ready and will be released Monday.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
I think the kindle app does not work on this ROM. Anyone else try? OK. Maybe just the comics aren't displaying. Books are working for me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboyinlycra:
The kindle app works for me but the playstore tells me that the Amazon app is not compatible with my device which is strange because I used to have it installed and have managed to side load and it works but the official incompatibility prevents me from installing and running the instant video module
[Asus Transformer TF700] CalPolyRock:
Maybe same dpi related issue that's preventing SwiftKey from working correctly on this rom? Right now it's not usable because the keyboard is twice the size and you only see half a keyboard in the screen.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes probably the dpi although swiftkey is lazy ass programming imo. Probably why they went free with their software. Build the best keyboard and then don't support it.

Any issues with the play store are 99% because you chose a non standard dpi. Search for the multi-dpi play store and install that instead ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboyinlycra:
I did go for something smaller than stock value :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
SwiftKey always worked fine for me on 213 dpi and 240 dpi
[Asus Transformer TF700] fatboyinlycra:
In not a swiftkey user mine was Amazon but weird thing is by installing it from Amazon's app store it worked fine. Word or what?
[Asus Transformer TF700] PolishPoet:
Is anyone able to change the lock screen wallpaper? Setup, Security, Lock screen,pick ends up with "Unfortunately, com.android.wallpapercropper has stopped. Wiped data, clean install, data2sd.

Will auto brightness be fixed someday in a future release?

Right now it seems to work for a few seconds and then a few moments later the amount of light increases again to a much brighter level. :cool:

I ask because I'm not sure if this is an already known issue or not :confused:

Edit: Or has this always been like this? Not sure...
[Asus Transformer TF700] AJM-hackers:
Nope, this is feature, which is adjustable. Click on the autobrightness icon in QS and then click on the settings gear next to the slider. Then you can configure it yourself
[Asus Transformer TF700] MiM81:
err... okay. I don't see a settings gear next to the slider?

What worked for me was going to Android settings and adjust the lower auto brightness levels a bit. I did not recognize these settings before, so if that was what you meant, I thank you anyway :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
I know that this is an absurdly silly question. I've been running the Crombis all of the way up through the kitkat versions. When I last tried to install zombi, I did something that killed my recovery. That was fun getting back to a running system. Once was enough.

I'm running CROMBI-KK with data2sd using f2fs on the external. Is the correct way to install this ROM?

1, Run data2sd1.zip

2. Make a twrp backup (2.7.0.0) to the external sd

3. FORMAT /data

4. Install ROM selecting data2sd

5. Reboot

The notes say wipe not format. Should I use the Advanced option and wipe /data instead of formatting it? Since the install wipes /system and cache, do I have to wipe those while wiping /data?

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] Aren't you supposed to reboot back into TWRP before installing the ROM (IOW, between steps 3 and 4)?
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
Are you saying that I should reboot after the wipe/format?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
No. You got it right in post #234.

And no need to format data. A wipe will do.

The installer takes care of system and cache, no need to wipe those in recovery too.
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
Installed and running. This is incredible!

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thibor69:
What am I missing ?? I can not for the life of me get the ( soft keys ) "back" / "home" / "menu" to appear down at the botttom of the screen and stay there. I can setup a gesture to swipe "UP" and the softkey bar will pull up for a few seconds but then drop down and hide again.

Help please.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
Mi amigo - you seem to have immersive mode turned on (expanded desktop). Pull down the right side quick settings from the top and try toggling the immersive card and see if that fixes it up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thibor69:
MMmmmmm not sure .... I believe I turned immersive OFF now, but that soft menue still auto hides after 5 seconds ... ???? Hmmmm :silly:

Thibor
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
The ROM install instructions don't mention any use of the ROM2SD / DATA2SD zip files when installing. For example, the tutorial on how to format the microSD card has you using GParted to make the parts, then you're told to just go back and install the ROM selecting the ROM2SD / DATA2SD option in the installer.

That is why I thought there should be a reboot - b/c doing it the above way with no intervening flashing of the DATA2SD.zip / ROM2SD.zip will have a different partition layout in TWRP than if either were to be flashed, right?

So, I think I'm confusing myself, but it might end up being simple as this: Does the ROM installer install to the correct partitions regardless of whether ROM2SD.zip / DATA2SD.zip have been flashed or not?

Or am I missing something?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes it does it for you. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Well not quite "regardeless of". Aroma will install to the correct partitions if you choose either option. So you should not flash rom2sd1.zip/data2sd.zip for installation purposes.

You only need those files if you want TWRP to act on your external partitions for backup/restore purposes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Also worth noting that I added something into the script to check how you are currently set up. So if you have already flashed rom2sd1.zip it won't attempt to do it again and reset back to internal. Also once in rom2sd mode the installer leaves it that way so that on returning to twrp you are still in rom2sd mode.

Hopefully that keeps things less confusing. :p
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Wow! Man - you really are polishing this rom towards perfect+!

Incredible!
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
DId you expect anything else ? :cool:

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Ahhh.

Gotchya,

That, indeed, makes it less confusing. I should have figured out that you had done something like that, in the first place, eh?

Lol- nope. you guys are consistently outdoing yourselves with your releases.

---

OK, I have *finally* gotten ROM2SD to work for me for the first time. Installed to internal, and then set it up, then installed to SD, and got the setup wizard again - so I know it is seeing it in a different location again.

Now to bench my class 10 card and see if it really is any better than internal.

Also, q, [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION]: Default settings have fsync disabled - does this setting affect f2fs as well as ext 3/4?

Just curious. I need to prevent corruption so I kept fsync on, but it caught me by surprise for a second. I figured that you have it disabled by default as a part of your optimized tweaked installer :)

Thanks everyone for clearing up everything.

I cannot get my tablet to go above 1500, even with 1800 set under Settings, Performance. Both CPU Spy and OS Monitor show that is the max. OS Monitor has a display that shows the clock rate on each of the CPU'S. CPU Spy shows that 1800 is unused. Using _that kernel in b7.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
Try to install this app: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2532829&d=1390421631

Give it root permissions and then select "performance mode" and see if that will give you your 1800
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
F2FS has no dependency or relationship with fsync. fsync is like a saftey net for IO operations being written out to the database. I.e., should I wait for confirmation that everything is saved and written ok or should I just move the **** right on...?

Hi again -

I have tried that now ... but still the "soft keys" that appear at the bottom of the screen, will drop down and hide like (auto hide) in Windows 7.

Help ....

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Disable immersive mode...... How are you doing this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You got any Xposed modules running?
[Asus Transformer TF700] PolishPoet:
Brought it up to 1700, still no 1800. What is everyone else getting.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
When installing the rom in the Aroma installer and checking _that's kernel, it gives you the option of what you want to set your upper frequencies in normal and performance mode. I'm guessing you left "normal" mode at 1.5 and "performance" at 1.7. Try running the installer and look for these options this time and change them. Don't bother doing any wipes so that you can keep your data in tact.

Nope it's set to 1800. Under performance in settings 1800 is max.
[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
I was stuck on 1700 as well.

Open Terminal and then: echo 0 > /sys/module/cpu_tegra/parameters/system_mode

If that alone doesn't fix it then the other change that I made might be needed :fingers-crossed:

If it works then you should see 1800 as current speed in settings but it won't stick on reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] PolishPoet:
BxMxK, I'm still @ 1700
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
That would indicate that override_edp_limit is not set in /system/boot/preinit.cfg or the preinit script that reads that file is not executed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
i was stuck @ 1500, even though the upper max was set @ 1800 on the Settings->Performance tab.

your terminal command did get the CPU up to 1800 :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
open /system/boot/preinit.d/60clockspeed

make sure:

override_edp_limit=1

mhz_balanced=1700

mhz_performance=1800

save. don't remember how it's mounted so mount r/w if necessary to save the file.

also not completely sure... but i believe these require a reboot? which will require echoing 0 to system_mode again

my /system/boot/preinit.cfg already had:

override_edp_limit=1

mhz_balanced=1700

mhz_performance=1800

so i set the 60clockspeed to match preinit.cfg thinking there may have been a conflict as it was loading.

yes. the gpu ones help.

there are some libs that will be removed from next build that improve graphics speed as well.

use immersive mode. if you dont like immersive mode then get used to it. runs better when the ui isn't being rendered along with the app in focus

i think browser2ram actually makes browser choppier. have quit using it altogether.

f2fs all the way whether internal or external
