Issues with KatKiss 4.4.4 and Gooogle Maps 9.0 on ASUS TF101...

Just last night I decided to see if Google Maps 9.0 would work on my ASUS TF101 tablet running Kat Kiss 4.4.4 but Google Maps just closes itself out. I tried uninstalling it and thought I had correctly backed up the previous version of Google Maps 8.0 using Titanium back up but that fails to install. The version I see to download on Google Play for G Maps isn't working either. Does anyone have a link to download past G Maps APK or do I have to reinstall my GAAPS all over again? .....Unsure if anyone else has come across this issue. Downloading G Map 9.0 seems to have screwed it all up.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doppelhelix:
apkmirror.com keeps track of all the Google apps. Forget about the other maps 9.0 versions there. These won't work either.

P.S. this site is run by the guys from AndroidPolice
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazznikki:
Yes, Restricted profiles doesn't seem to be working. Maybe a Trebuchet problem but not sure. Any thoughts Tim?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludawg94:
Thanks! I actually saw what was the issue too, even though I uninstalled it I wasn't uninstalling it completely (from another profile too.)

So does that mean G Maps 9.0 is too much for the tablet?

Tim: I am liking the KatKiss rom though, got tired of ICS which was just boggy and some apps weren't playing well on it. This definitely will extend the life by another 2 years or so. That's an issue I have with Android, so may updates that devices get left behind. I will also donate via pay pal too, comments only go so far.

FUSE support?

This looks like a great ROM and I'm looking forward to installing it. Just one question:

Is FUSE support built into the kernel?

I currently have a CM10 build on my tf101, and the biggest thing I use it for is playing videos with MX Player, from a remote mount using SSHFS. I'd just like to have a reasonable shot that this will also work with this ROM. Thanks so much for your awesome work.

Failed to boot

I installed this ROM last night, followed directions exactly. Everything installed without errors. On reboot, I got the bootup logo, and that's it. It kept moving, but never completed the boot cycle. I let it go for 20 minutes.

Tried a second time, same result.

Tried to flash my backup, and recovery reported files not found. So I installed an old CyanogenMod ROM, opened a terminal, and discovered all the files in /storage/sdcard0 had been moved to /storage/sdcard0/0/0, and a new set of folders had been created. I moved the backup I needed back to the expected location, and restored successfully.

Best I can tell, I have an original Asus Transformer, which seems to be referred to as a tf101 (In the About section, it just says "Transformer").

I'm running:

ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.3.4

CyanogenMod cm-10-2013-929-NIGHTLY-tf101

(and some version of gapps)

I've done some more reading and it seems you prefer TWRP as a recovery manager.

When I visit the referred page at teamw-dot-in [this system wouldn't let me post the link to the exact page] it instructs to download "goo manager" from the Play Store, and use it to install OpenRecoveryScript. "goo manager" does not exist in the Play Store, but a search returns an app called "TWRP Recovery". The version numbers are nowhere near the same, and I can't tell whether this is the same app you are recommending?

The teamw-dot-in page goes on to describe another method of installing TWRP, but says this is "not recommended".

The Play Store app has quite a few complaints from people who have bricked their device, and the developer's response is, "Your device isn't supported." So apparently the app doesn't even check for a supported device before it runs. Not cool.

Anyway, I'm looking for some pointers. Obviously teamw-dot-in is not keeping their page up-to-date. I've found a few other links to twrp.blob and such, but with no clear instructions as to how to install it.

Is TWRP what I need to make your ROM work? Will you kindly point me in the right direction?

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hralm:
Tim, I miss onething in the ROM that's like a makeup theme: Maybe, you can put some form of icon notification of the wireless and bluetooth to indicate when they are connected? Example: in another rom from another device, when you put to connect the wifi, its appear white when connected to a wireless lan, but blue when connected to internet, and have too the sing with arrows up and down, demonstrating that is receiving or sending data. For, bluetooth is similar: appear white when "on" and (for example) blue, when connected.

The first one, related to the wifi, for me is very good to have, it's more than simple theme cosmetic....

Thanks man!

maps downgrade from 9.0 to 8.4.1?

Sooo yeah... it seems like the suggested fix for the maps 9.0 problem to uninstall the app, then remove it from the list of "All" apps in the play store, and then install it again... just installed the maps 9.0 again :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timduru:
that's because you didn't do a full wipe and/or that your recovery is too old and is not aware of the new storage organisation that changed since JB.

That's why the instructions say to install a *recent* recovery like TWRP

that's most likely your issue yes, since it didn't do a full wipe it won't work

The link in the instruction points to this page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2434422

there you will find a flashable version for the tf101.

Really glad that I stumbled upon this ROM recently! It's breathed real life into my Mrs transformer and made it once again a very useable device,

Thank You!

After the original flash, and a few reflashes just to check, I have a few questions;

1. The gapps link in the original post, am I right in saying that it is not a complete flash of ALL gapps, but essential updates? I looked in the zip and could only find a few apps mentioned. So get all the gapps I "need", I need to get them from the play store?

2. Flash and USB storage, what format does this support? When I plug my OTG flash drive into the dock USB port, I can see the device connect and it's size is correctly reported, but it cannot be read. The format of the drive is exFAT and if I reformat it as NTFS then it is read successfully, but then my phone does read it! arrg.

3. I've installed "loads" of apps and tried to use an apps to SD app to try and clear up some memory, but none of them worked, what am I missing/doing wrong?

4. The Google maps version I had installed from the play store is 8.4.1.

Thank you donation, 5UA16647WE7182803.

Skype still doesn't work

First of all thank you for doing these roms it rocks! My tablet used to be seldomly used because it was not very smooth and just plainly sucked. Thanks to you it's like a brand new tablet.

Now my dilemma. I've tried the skype version noted on here and also a few other ones and it keeps giving me the following error "You cannot be signed in at this time. Please check your mobile network settings and try again". I have reinstalled the rom 3 times and everything works perfect except skype. Out of ideas.

Please help.

Thank you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timduru:
yep, it's a minimal gapps package, the rest is available in the playstore

It supports exfat, ntfs and fat

But some big exfat or and ntfs drives might not always mount though.

The most compatible would be fat32 if you don't need files >4GB you're fine with that.

It needs kernel ramdisk support for that usually.

I support only the inverted storage method (see how to in the thread)

I'm curretly using Lollipop on the TF300T, and yeah it's faster and nice as a daily already. :)

Have to see later on for the TF101, it will take some time to test and such.

I'm doing the TF300T first.

Good news is that if/when I make it work with the TF101,

most of the features will have been already put back :)

I just tested it here, and it works fine for me.

Ideas to try:

- logout from skype and relogin

- go to Settings => apps => skype and clear data

- do a full wipe of /data

latest chrome app only starts in windowed mode

Hi,

First a thanks to timduru and everyone who are helping keeping my tf101 alive!

Yesterday Google Chrome updated to the new material design version.

Since then Chrome only starts in windowed mode and I cannot get it to go full screen.

I was still on katkiss 30. I wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted. Got lots of gapps stopped working error, but still chrome started in window mode. So I upgraded to the latest stable 035 and gapps 20140913, wiped dalvik and cache.

That got the error messages out of the way, but chrome still starts in windowed mode and does not want to go fullscreen.

The new Google Maps starts fullscreen (but then crashes as I already see mentioned by others).

Anybody else with this problem and know a workaround or fix?

Kind regards

having a few issues

First off thanks for all the great work. Love the ROM. Brought new life to my TF.

First issue is video playback choppiness. Tried a few different players.

Second is the floating window feature is a little tweaky. If I use floating or multi I just get a partially black screen and the windows are very difficult to manage.

My WiFi is eating my battery like crazy. 82% while idle/sleeping. Turning it off didn't help

I did find acandy crush version that works for the woman. 1.33.

Hi.

I´m using the KatKiss Rom now for quite a long time and loved it so far, but since a few days now i´ve got a weird problem with the multi window option:

Thing is i had Chrome Browser running and made it into a floating window but now i just can´t bring it back to real fullscreen. Doesn´t matter how often i try to restart it in fullscreen mode, it just pops up as a window every time.

So far i tried to re-install chrome, deleted the cache of the system-ui apk and after all that not working i wiped it today (data&cache) and installed the rom with just the gapps, loaded chrome from market and had the same problem, first start and it´s in window mode...

Any ideas on that?

Headphone Jack and Docking

I am using thread:[KK 4.4.4] [ KatKiss-KitKat #036] My Chrome Window Issue was on this version but I cleared cache and rebooted and it is now ok. Although I am cautious about using multi-window with Chrome., as it was a real pain.

My other burning issue is the Headphone jack it worked ok on #32 but since my upgrade to #35 and now #36 if I plug in a headphone it just ignores it. I have checked and all the hardware looks ok. I do not want to go back to #32 does anyone have any ideas.

A side issue is that since #45 my docking stations keeps breaking connection but this could be a physical issue.

It doesn't work at all if it is flat. Previously I could use it when it was flat. I am wondering if this is a timing / polling issue or maybe the new kernel is looking for a flag that needs power where the old kernel polled it anyway. Its years since I have written any firmware(25+) so I may be barking up the wrong tree. could the two docking issue be linked?

Before I discovered KK 4.4.X I was considering one of the new TF303 , now the TF01 is performing fantastic and apart from the dock issues , which limits the use of SD and USB as they don't stay online long enough to transfer files. I can see no reason to replace it.

Hi, there!

Backup Everything! (Simple enough. I don't have any content on the device I care to keep.)

Go to recovery (A little confused at this point. I'm assuming it's talking about the TWRP found here? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2434422 Do I install and run this from the tablet? Do I run it from my PC with my tablet attached? Does it need to be on an SD card if it's to be run on the tablet? So many questions!)

Make a full wipe / Factory reset (Is this something accomplished through TWRP, or is this something I need to fiddle with in the tablet settings?)

Format/system (only if Version<026) (Where do I locate this version #? Also, how do I accomplish the format process?)

Flash the rom (If I'm understanding this correctly I'm supposed to have the rom on an SD card when I boot up the tablet after formatting it?)

Flash KatKiss gapps (Same as above?)

Wipe cache/dalvik (No clue what this means...)

Reboot. (This one I think I can handle, yaaaaay!)

I'm terribly sorry for my ignorance, but the inconsistancies between YouTube how-to videos has me all sorts of confused. I appreciate any and all help!

vm.swappiness = 0

But after I changed it

sysctl -w vm.swappiness=100
vm.swappiness = 100

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timduru:
It depends which kernel / setup you use basically.

That option is a left over from the old EOS days where KatKernel was not included into the rom.

With Katkernel it is setup to not swap memory as to make things faster, enabling zram will just make things slower.

I still left the option there in case someone want to enable it with another kernel, or a special use, or with katkernel but in that case you need to revert / change some of the katkernel vm tweaks indeed.

The real question is also more: what do you need zram for ?

I'd say that if you need it, you might be better to just optimize all the apps and **** you have running on your tablet basically ;)
