Speak of the devil :D

Cheers Tim, what's the reason behind removing SuperSU ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Yeah ;P

There is no spoon 14 ;P

Seeeeee, I thought I would be clever and skip 013 for bad luck,

but it followed me onto 014, so 014b here it comes ;)

That's the rule to remember, it's not 13 that is bad luck it is the "one after 12" ;P

As for SuperSU it was going crazy on the TF101 between the included version in the rom and update, eating all cpu / blocking, not sure why, but it works fine if flashing the official superSU.

So after trying to figure it out for a few hours with no success, => KISS, just flash the SuperSU zip

there done, and that will bring up to date versions more often too ;P
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] *Detection*:
:D haha, there is no escaping "the one after 12" :D lol

Ah right, weird, least there is a workaround though, if I look back to Honeycomb days, getting KK up and running and rooted is childs-play compared :D

#014b

I install this version and i had various freezing and reboots, and i think this version is more slow then version 012.

Anybody have the same problems?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] garyngkt:
#014b running fine so far on my side :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
That sounds like the supersu problems I was talking about, it'll eat cpu, go in a crazy loop and spawn processes, then block and the system will "reboot" (more like killing systemserver because it's not responding)

Flashing the SuperSU zip after the rom should take care of that,

did you do that ?

If you did and that you still have the issues, do a full wipe / reinstall clean, and flash rom + supersu + gapps.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] xbs:
Seems faster than v012 to me. I even flashed fsync and disable system journalling.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Taomyn:
I'm a little confused about the launcher(s) being used - I just installed #014b and on first press of "Home" I get the choices "Hame Sample" and "Launcher3" - neither seem to be the "Google Now Launcher" I have installed separately, nor can I activate it. I never had this issue with KitKat.

I tried my usual trick of using Titanium Backup to freeze/uninstall the unwanted launchers, but I ended up not being able to boot and had to reflash.

I really only want to have the Google Now Launcher off Play, so what's the best way? It would also be handy if in the future apps like this and also the firmware provided Camera, Browser, Keyboard could be uninstalled so I can stick with Play versions, but being able to freeze/uninstall them for now is sufficient - if it works.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Guichinga:
Did you read the OP at the 1st page?

There is a link available: http://downloads.timduru.org/android/tf101/gapps/gapps-GoogleLauncher_20141122.zip

supersu

Where is the superSu zip file?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Taomyn:
No I read it, and as always I installed it (as I did for all of Tim's previous releases) only this time it hasn't made a difference, at least it didn't the first time I flashed #014b and skipped it the second time as I thought it was the problem.

I'll try it again and see if this time it works.........
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Guichinga:
First OP - Latest SuperSU: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Taomyn:
I did it again, flashed the ROM then GApps for Lollipop, then the Launcher zip and lastly SuperSU followed by wipe of the caches - after booting I get the home screen. If I then go into the app drawer I see Google Now Launcher, when I click that it tells me that "Launcher3" is default and to use it I must clear the defaults (they're not set). I then hit the "home" button or go into Settings/Home and all I am provided with is "Home Sample" and "Launcher3".

Something isn't right - it's never been like this even with one of the early 5.0 builds (#7 I think it was, and this is only the second one I have tried).

resolved

Tks.. Is resolved nice job [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] in this rom....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jmaclean62:
I am having similar problems

---------- Post added at 05:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:14 AM ----------

I am also having an issue with Facebook not showing pictures. I see all the posts, but none of the pictures. I am running the latest, 14b, on a fresh and clean intall.

Everything is a bit laggy too at the moment. I am now updating anything as I did a new device and didn't recover anything. I will give it a day to see if it picks up in case something is scanning and report back.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Joh14vers6:
I notice that it is not working at all USB-internet. At first it looks working, because it gets IP with DHCP, but when I want to connect a router by its IP-address it can not connect to it. Webpages of course do not work either, because it can not connect to the dns server.

Has the kernel changed?? Because reflashing the 118 kernel let it run the Meerkat bootimage run endlessly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nagrom Nniuq:
Definitely issues with 14b. I upgraded from 11 and now am having the launcher issue as well as a repeated crashing and rebooting issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Just tried it and it works fine for me, could be the order you flash it in maybe.

Try to flash in the order indicated in the 1st post: rom - supersu - gapps - launcher

that's what I do and google now launcher is there,

I did a full wipe to install 14b yesterday though.

Yeah full ethernet support like in 4.4 is not in the rom.

Not sure if I'll add it back, it requires many modifications.

Kernel is the same just make sure to use the LP version.

crash and reboots are because you most likely didn't bother reading neither the few posts before yours nor the changelog nor the 1st post:

=> Flash SuperSU zip.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nagrom Nniuq:
Oh I did. I always read. It still has a random crash and reboot. I have reflashed a couple times. It's all good. I'm a developer, supporter, and donor. I understand that things don't always work perfect. V11 is fine for me and I know you will keep working, as your ROMs are great.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] eliesayed:
Everything's working perfectly for me on my tf101, system is even faster now ... Gr8 work [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION], love what u did ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] 1st_paladin:
As Tim mentioned in one of his posts, here are the steps which I followed and it works just fine. Even Maps now works.

1. Download the following from the 1st post

a. version 14 rom

b. the SU file

c. Gapps file (if necessary)

2. Install in the right order i.e. a, b and then c

3. Wipe Dalvik and Cache

4. Reboot

Personally I find version 14 better than 12 with added bonus that Maps is now working.

Many thanks to Tim for his hard work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Then read further and follow the How to report link.

Make sure you follow the specific instructions for reboots, and get me logs.

As a developper you should understand better than anyone that just telling me "I have random issues on my tablet" is not really going to help me.

I should see easily if it's supersu or not with proper logs.

Also just to make sure: you tried a full wipe and install in the specific order listed in the 1st post ?

rom-supersu-gapps ?

As a general reminder there is this part in the installation instructions:

[*]Make a full wipe / factory reset (you can skip this step if you're already on KatKiss-5.0,

if ever you encounter a problem do the full wipe and try again before reporting

)

Dirty flashing *should* work in most cases, but it's just that... dirty. Even more if you do 11=>14b

It'll be much more deterministic if doing a full wipe, and most "random" issues should be gone by doing so.

So please everyone do that first if you encounter an issue,, and try to reproduce it before restoring your apps.

Then if you still have it , do a full report with logs and I can investigate.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Guichinga:
I only can second that statement. Running Timduru's various rom's since more than 2 years - and the latest V14b is after more than a day of usage as stable as V12 was and I do not have any reboot or crash until now.

I simply was following the updated installation guideline and flashed SuperSu as well before I did reboot the tablet.

Thanks a lot Tim for keeping this outdated tablet alive - as it is still working awesome since years - for many users. :good:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Taomyn:
Yes, it's there, but did you actually try to use the Google Now Launcher because it isn't working at all for me I;m afraid :(

I followed the steps as per post #1 including a wipe (TWRP 2.8.1.1) and after booting, signing into my account I see this:

I chose Launcher3 and the app drawer now shows this:

If I press on "Launcher" this pops up:

I then allowed the tablet to download all the apps and updates from my last installation. Eventually when Google Now Launcher is updated I get this when I press on the icon for it:

In settings there is no sign of the Google Now Launcher:

I never had this issue with build #07 I think it was, so something else has changed to make it behave like this.

*Sorry for the big images and their quality as I had to use my Nexus 5 to get the shots.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MatteoB92:
Why didn't you just take simple screenshots?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] timduru:
Yes I can use it fine, it appears in the launcher list when I press home.

It disappears if the separate zip is not flashed from what I had noticed back when it got removed from the main gapps zip. That's why I added it back but as a separate zip.

If you have skipped to flash it at some point , that might be your issue, even if you flash the zip back later on .

One thing you might want to try is to uninstall it completely from the apps, reboot, then install the launcher zip.

Full wipe and making sure to flash it everytime should solve too though.

Check that the md5sum matches the googlelauncher zip maybe, in case you had a bad download too.

But I just tested it again here, from a full wipe and it works fine for me.

rom-supersu-gapps from 1st post, google launcher from 1st post.

Maybe it could be because you let google restore your apps automatically too, not sure, I never do that and just restore through titanium myself.

something to test.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jsferra1:
Tim thank you for all your work on this rom, I see you don't sleep so maybe it is true your a droid ?.

I had an issue after I installed the 14b where I could not wake up the tablet after the screen turns off. So I did a full wiped and reinstall all good now.

Just remember do regular backups.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Taomyn:
Because it wasn't going to be "simple" to get them onto the forum - you know, fresh install and all that. My Nexus 5 is already connected up. Jeez.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 PM ----------

Thanks I'll check the files and try a full wipe, again and repeat the process - I did exactly the same you wrote . I have no other back up as I don't need one, it's all on Google so the restore has to work that way for me.

14b is excellent

I have flashed as recommended V14b, SuperSU, and Gapps - and rebooted - of course it takes a while to optimise the apps, and the launcher needs to be selected as others have already said when it completes the reboot. I had to reset the wallpaper, and then all has been well. This is a much smoother and fast ROM on my TF101, and I am delighted that Google Maps now works again.

TimDuru's work is really brilliant, and as a community we are very grateful for all the work that he puts into continuing to release such excellent ROMs. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] archcantor:
Hi Tim,

This ROM is amazing and so are you ... again! I just installed 014b with a factory reset, Gapps-LP and the SuperSU update. It came up fine and it's fast and smooth. The latest version of Titanium Backup restored all but one of my apps: Enhanced Email. It was giving the error: Unknown error during application install "-505"

It was interesting that an install directly from Google Play produced the same error. Searching the error I found this below:

This is caused by a bug with app certificate parsing in Lollipop:

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=79089

They already fixed the bug so I suppose the fix for this will eventually migrate into your build code as you produce your future updates.

It's also interesting that the same version of Titanium Backup under LP on my Samsung Galaxy Tab2 does not restore apps backed up under KK. It just hangs. It does backup and restore within LP but hangs on restoring the KK backups. On your ROM it works fine.

Anxiously awaiting bluetooth and the other nice customizations you build into your roms.

Thanks again for this excellent work and for keeping the TF-101 alive! -Rick

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nagrom Nniuq:
timduru, I'm sorry man, I wasn't trying to upset you or dis you. I was merely agreeing with the people before that there was an issue with the launcher and that I had a crash/reboot issue. I am sorry I didn't post logs, but I was very busy on RL things, plus I did not know if I had an app causing it (though it didn't happen before 14b). I did not do a full wipe, as I'd rather live with the random crash and reboot, than lose my stuff right now, since my son was using the tablet. Anyhow, the issue is fixed now after reflashing a 4th time (each time rom, supersu, gapps, launcher, wipe dalvik/cache) and getting rid of an app that may have been the cause. If I could not figure it out myself, then I would have moved on to full wipe, then logs, or rolling back to an older version (which I did temporarily). Again, sorry for not being more clear.

Moving on now, and out of interest, why have Home Sample launcher and Launcher 3?
