Works great after clean install

Thanks, Tim, for supporting this old device. I dirty flashed version 27 from 26 but got the Google Play Service error. Reflashed with a clean install and everything works great. Please keep up the good work.

thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
Flash it from recovery after ROM and Gapps
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mborgues:
I already flash the file... But still with laucher3 and not change ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nicolas Love:
Small but annoying bug should be fixed

Hi Tim.

This is small but annoying bug. I hope you can fix it.

I attached screenshots.

When by default the setting of the launcher "Show Search Bar" is "On", then the link "Remove" is normal, but there is unused space in the upper part, which could be used if it was accessible.

But when "Show Search Bar" is "Off", then that space in upper part is accessible for using, but "Remove" sign is broken.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cracks:
And today it happens again because Google play services wants to update. No one else expieriences this?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gadgetrants:
Until I get up the energy and motivation to do a full wipe, I've dirty-flashed the last couple of versions and then flashed the previous GAPPS (2014.11.22), which seems to solve this issue. You can find it on TIm's FTP site:

Tim

Would you please add KatKiss-5.1_027.zip to http://downloads.timduru.org/android/tf101/K.A.T/KatKiss/5.1/dev/?

It is much easier to download files from there. Especially, if you use wget.

Keep up the good work. :)

I just wget from xda on the server ;)

I have been a VERY loyal Katkiss user for many years at this point. Kudos to Timduru for all his work keeping the TF101 alive and well. I use mine everyday. Thank you!!

Now, I had stopped flashing with the incredibly stable and functional 4.4.4 #36 and watched eagerly for the lollipop versions to arrive. With the release of 5.1. #27 I was wondering has anyone had an opinion on the speed and stability of Tim's Lollipop releases (barring known bugs of course) and the Previous Kitkat releases?

Not necessarily actual benchmark comparisons, simply your opinion as to speed and usability between the two versions.

I am looking for a TF700 to port this ROM to. The TF701 is too expensive and the 2560 resolution isn't really needed [by me!] So far haven't found a good one. Though I did find an existing port of the 5.1 KatKiss Rom.

This DOESN'T mean I will abandon my trusty TF101! Mostly it is used for Telnet, browsing and media and does that quite well.

Any comments or opinions about the ROMs would be helpful.

Thanks,

Rick

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] :
I am also still running the 4.4.4 version on my SL-101. I've flashed and used Lollipop - even the latest #27 without issue. No issues with speed and or usability. I cannot really say one is better than the other - although the Lollipop here runs better than any Lollipop on my Tab 2. Kudos to Tim

The only reason I have not made the jump to Lollipop is due to fact I cannot find a working version of XBMC. That and the visual issue with the second battery icon that does not belong on the SL-101. It is a minor annoyance, and am sure it will be fixed once Tim has time to work on the SL-101 pack. But again, the only reason is the XBMC problem

Good luck,
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nicolas Love:
Wow! It is so fast. Thank you very much.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] guywong:
Yahoo calendar

I've loaded this Rom to my Transformer but can't add Yahoo calendar to Tim's calendar even though it seems to allow for it. After pressing on Add Account, selecting Yahoo and entering my Yahoo ID and password, I got the "Done" button, but my Yahoo account never shows up. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wackydroid:
So, I've been blissfully using v23 for a few months, and the fact my ol' TF101 has Lollipop and functions beautifully is a real testament to Tim's genius. It's set up so perfectly I can basically use it blindfolded. And therein lies my issue...

From what I've read, if I dirty flash v27 over v23 I'll prolly have problems...is that correct? Anyone do it with no problems?

If I can't dirty flash and have to do a clean-scrub and reset everything, is it worth the headaches? Is v27 all-that-and-a-bag-of-chips better than v23? What's v27 got that will make my tab SO much better than v23?

Inquiring (and semi-lazy) mind wants to know!

:silly:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] PRBajista:
I would think the most significant thing is the stage fright patch.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wackydroid:
Thanks, but pardon my ignorance, as I've been too busy this summer to keep up on all the latest stuff, but wtf is "Stagefright" and why will it make my life better? (I'm in the entertainment biz, and stagefright's generally a negative thing in my world !!)

Any help/explanations will do...

:confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] PRBajista:
From Android Central...and I quote

"Stagefright" is the nickname given to a potential exploit that lives fairly deep inside the Android operating system itself. The gist is that a video sent via MMS (text message) could be theoretically used as an avenue of attack through the libStageFright mechanism (thus the "Stagefright" name), which helps Android process video files. Many text messaging apps — Google's Hangouts app was specifically mentioned — automatically process that video so it's ready for viewing as soon as you open the message, and so the attack theoretically could happen without you even knowing it. Because libStageFright dates back to Android 2.2, hundreds of millions of phones contain this flawed library.

Theoretically it can potentially affect us but it is a long shot since we don't use MMS but some do use Hangouts. Thus the patch was done. I would do it just for safety's sake. Better safe than sorry. Here is the link to the full article if you care to get the full story as this was just snippets of the whole article.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wackydroid:
Excellent explanation, thanks!

I hate Hangouts and I have enough apps on my other electronics that bug me constantly so I do zero on the TF short of the occasional email.

I'm pretty sure I'm safe.

:cool:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] edd080:
Hi to all after doing a clean install (i wiped cache, data and internal storage) of 27 i have no issues over all except for Google plus which crashes as soon as i try to open the app; anyone having the same issues? iam attaching a logcat if this might help.

Thanks for any help.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] blackice000:
This is an Unabashed plea to Timduru.

If you've read any of my impassioned and glowing reports about my TF101 using your ROMs since the beginning, you will know I am a loyal and thankful user.

I would like to ask you to compile a version for the TF700. I am aware you do not own one, but I know that won;t stop you! :)

My TF101 is Faster than my TF700 with any ROM. The current ports on the TF700 of your 5.1 Rom are slow and disjointed. I will be working on it...on my own, but I am not any where near the coder you are.

Can you assist? Please?

Hi is it just me or after upgrading ( clean install ) from the latest KatKiss 4.4.4 to the latest KatKiss 5.1, some games made by King just stopped working. Games like Candy Crush Saga and Bubble Witch just stay stuck when opening them.

EDIT: Candy Crush Soda works fine, the others just don't pass the initial loading screen.

Unable to restore to stock

Hi I am on katkiss lollipop.did a factory reset in recovery mode however on boot up its struck at the katkiss icon..how do i restore it to stock ASUS firmware?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
Flash the stock rom.

or

Restore the backup you made.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
You want to restore it to stock ASUS paperweight, random rebooting, battery killing, PoS firmware?

Why? It's been broken since the very first ICS release, only Honeycomb worked
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MiniBlu:
Inverted storage

Hi Tim, I've been using your inverted storage kernel with KatKiss KitKat for ages with a custom setup using internal data as a Linux partition and would love to reproduce the setup with Lolipop. I have tried a few times to get it to work with 5.1.1 but with no luck. So I guess my question is has there been any changes to ramdisk on latest kernel? Is it worth me trying to unpack latest kernel and repack latest zImage with 118c_inverted storage ram disk. With KitKat I modify the ramdisk of inverted storage kernel to stop it mounting internal data partition so that android leaves my Linux partition alone but on lolipop I can't get it to work with inverted storage at all.

Thanks in Advance MiniBlu

Hi guys,

I'm having problems flashing this ROM, since I Can't boot into ANY TWRP recovery. Whatever version I try, it ends up with the tablet rebooting itself. However, I was able to flash again the KitKat ROM with an old CWM 5.5. I've tried EVERYTHING, I've flashed with NVRAM the stock rom, I even flashed the image that gives us more partition space, but it won't help. I sincerely don't know what else to try.

Maybe someone can help me. Can anybody make a nvram backup so I can flash it? Is that even possible ? [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] any ideas??

Thanks !!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] walkerx:
you need to update to the latest TWRP (listed in OP) otherwise it won't work - download and install via TWRP or other Recovery - reboot device and then try to flash KatKiss - I've just come from Revolution HD 3.6 and had to update TWRP from 2.3 before I could install - i had issues when telling it to check the md5 for twrp and it wouldn't install, deleted the file and installed without issues

update: the tablet seems to be working fine, but noticed there is no notification regarding an sdcard being installed, must i go into settings to eject it every time?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] LighthammerX:
I feel like I hit a wall.

My TF101 has been out of commission for a few months because of Google Play Store problems. I finally am able to sit down and workout these problems.

I figured I'd go with this rom because it looks like the only one being remotely supported right now, however, I can't get this rom to take hold.

I've tried installing the rom through TWRP (v2.6), RogueXM (v1.5.0-R1) and Clockwork (v5.5.04). I won't install with any of these recoveries.

I've tried v5.1_027, v5.1_026 and v5.1.025 and it doesn't work with any of these.

I'm on a TF101 Wifi with SBK1.

The biggest problem I've had with TWRP is I can't run fix permissions with it (I tried going all the way back to v2.1). Rogue and Clockwork CAN fix permissions.

I feel like there is something I might be missing.

Any thoughts?

Also, any thoughts on another viable Rom to try? For the record, I can get the most current version of Omni (4.4.4) to run.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DoughMucker:
Use the newest TWRP (as instructed and linked in the OP).
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] LighthammerX:
Finally got around to trying this.

I saw reference to TWRP 2.8 being part of the process but I didn't immediately see the instructors for download.

Installing 2.8 got me through install.

Let's see where I go from here.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] thunderman98:

My lovely TF101 died yesterday.

He was old and decrepit.

Yesterday he broke into pieces.

He was my companion for more than three years.

I've gone through many things with him.

And now he's gone.

Goodbye my friend.

Thank you for everything.

Had my tf-101 lying around with v25 and decided to take it back into good use. It's going to be used by the whole family. For Netflix, chromecast with BubbleUPnp, Clash of Clans, web browsing, mail andere kalender.

So, today I'm doing full clean wipe, etc. and flash v27.

I'm pretty excited if i van reach my goal.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] khakhi:
Hi ,

There is an error :"unable to open zip file" when i try to flash the katkiss ROM. my tf 101 is rooted and im using TWRP custom recovery. i downladed thekatkiss ROM from here http://public.timduru.org/Android/tf101/KatKiss/

What could be the problem? im on stock rom now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
did you do the full wipe? did you 'format data' in TWRP? and is it the right version of TWRP?

from the OP:

TWRP 2.8.1 is recommended: available here

Older versions of TWRP like 2.3.x won't work.

Backup everything !

Go to recovery

Make a full wipe / factory reset (you can skip this step if you're already on the same main version of KatKiss, if ever you encounter a problem do the full wipe and try again before reporting )
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] khakhi:
Yes i have done the full wipe.

I have now managed to flash katkiss 4.4.4 but doing the same way i cant install katkiss 5.1 because of that error that pops up.

I have TWRP 2.6.1.0 that im using. I will search for the new version and flash it. wipe everything and try katkiss5.1 again
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
the link to the TWRP version is on the OP under instructions.

Format Data is a must when switching versions.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] khakhi:
I flashed TWRP 2.8.1.1 and wiped cache, system and dalvik cache

Then tried to flash the katkiss 5.1 ROM but got the same error "unable to open zip file" , why does it not flash this ROM but it flashed katkiss4.4.4 ??
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
In TWRP on the wipe screen, do you see ' Format Data'? Did you do it? As Tim has said, Wipe is not the same. When switching between ROM versions Format Data.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] khakhi:
Hi ,

Yes i see "format data" , should i hit that too?

Ill try it now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
Yes, that is the magic bullet.

Please assist.

make sure you are using the correct twrp - reboot device after installing it to confirm - also try without using md5 checksum - if needed redownload it

is there an easier way of unmounting external cards instead of going to the settings - on revolution was just able to press the icon on the dock to unmount it
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] khakhi:
I am using TWRP 2.8.1.1

Im a bit of a noob, what about md5 checksum? what is that?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
New version #028

New rom version available: KatKiss-5.1_028.zip

New Gapps: gapps-KatKiss-5.1_20150920.zip

And MultiWindow is back :)

See post #3 for the description.

Might still have a few rough edges sometime when first switching an app, but it should mostly work :)

(app is fine but a message saying that the app is not responding might pop sometime)

It's still missing the icons on recents to layout the apps in a specific spot, but you can use global actions for that in the meantime.

Might add these on the navbar in some sort of submenu instead, still not sure.

ChangeLog:

- Upgrade to android 5.1.1 Release 16 (LMY48P)

- Add back Multi Windows

- GlobalActions: Add Multi Windows related actions

(can be used on navbar buttons, or Global Dock KeyOverride)

- NavBar: Add Buttons to switch to Previous App and between splitview/Fullscreen

- Settings: Allow to hide NavBar MultiWindow Buttons

- Settings: Add long press actions on NavBar MultiWindow Buttons

I will try last version .. May be there's no sudden reboot for my Tf101G

Thanks Tim. ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
The md5 checksum is a way of checking your download completed properly. Google would help out there.

Try a new download?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wn1ytw:
I missed that it was a G until now. I know nothing about the G except it is different. Sorry. You'll have to get advice from someone else if it does not work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
Wow, thanks Tim, downloading :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] yoh_anim:
Usually "can't open file" means the file is corrupted.

Download again and take the additional md5 file with it.

That file will help TWRP to check your zip is good or not.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Magissia:
Do you think it is possible to have a sort of border highlight to know if left or right window is focuses ?

Were you able to make inverted storage work ? My device's EMMC went so bad that writing to it force a reboot most of the time, having /data on EMMC makes the device impossible to use correctly here.

I'm also sure some people affected by sudden reboot are affected because of their device's EMMC too, on your kitkat builds, switching to the inverted storage kernel reduced drastically the sudden reboots problems here.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
everything is possible ;)

just a matter of time :)

But yeah I plan to improve it if time permits.

But with Android M around the corner, not sure it will be in Lollipop.

Will most likely have to rewrite all to base onto M's basic Multiwindow core too.

My tf101 microsd is dead unfortunately so I can't test.

but I made that one: Tim_KatKernel_120_invertstorage_LP5.1.zip

you can try it and report if it works.

Most likely not, the sudden reboot mentionned above is not related, it's because it's a TF101G.

It's known and has been said many times that the TF101G is not supported anymore, the old kernel pack is not available for LP.

You can use the rom with it but you will get Sod and RR unless you prevent the TF101G from (deep) sleeping.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] walkerx:
nice rom and change coming from revolution

just downloaded latest release, would it be possible to get something on the dock to allow you to unmount sdcards easily
