Yesterday my Prime (KatKiss v26) switched off and would not come back on until I pressed the reset button with a paper-clip.

It booted very slowly while showing: Android is starting... optimising apps xx of 85

When it eventually got to the end of this, it said it was short of storage (with 24GB free) then hung up.

It then cycled through this process several times until I turned it off.

I tried it again today. It went through the same slow boot process, but this time it didn't complain about shortage of memory, and now seems to be working OK.

New Question (trying to compile)

Is there any instructions on how I can compile my own kernel with the KatKiss ROM? Or know which driver the atmel_maxtouch is called on an installed ROM? Trying to figure out how I can contribute to KatKiss for those of us who are getting the new touchscreens from eBay with the inverted x-axis. There's a way to fix it (and Hairybean 2.31 made it an option with a recompile and init.d script) but I need to know where to start first. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
You could check this thread out...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1748297

I have looked at it and have been in beta testing for developers/ modders over many different machines..

If you have the time, ability's and machines setup for it I would say it would be a rewarding experience..and as you have a goal to help out others that may end up with cracked screens and buy the generic offering I think its a great idea..

Let us know how you get on as I am sure you will have s few that can test it for you..

Also if it is a init.d script..you could try to run it on boot using a script manager and see if that works.. Then once you have it perfected then include that script into a kernel and or ask a kernel developer to do it for you...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Angelwind:
For the init.d script, it looks like flumpster had somehow redone the atmel_maxtouch.c file in a way that you could turn reverse axis on or off with the script(the module got a reverse_axis command that you could change), which was included in his installer if you needed it. I know what lines I need to change/add, but I'm nowhere near as advanced as that. :)

I'm getting the KatKiss sources now and am going to attempt this and hopefully it'll still boot. :) Good thing I have backups.

KatKiss 5.0 Kernel for Reverse Axis (HannsTouch touchscreen models on TF201)

I make no guarantees for this other than it's working on my TF201. Kernel based on KatKiss 5.0 kernel source.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
Well done for giving it a go...

If you feel its settled into a usable kernel then you are now a fully fledged modder!!![emoji108]
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mustkeg:
This is great to hear, I will give it a try! My Prime also surprised me with an inverted touchscreen after repair. With timduru's help I managed to fork hardslog's Kitkat kernel, add

xpos = mxt->max_x_val – xpos;

into atmel_maxtouch.c and recompile.

One question: how should I flash your newboot.img? Via fastboot? Or should I replace the boot.blob inside the compatibility pack?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Angelwind:
You'll need to use nvflash, unless someone can show me how to make this flashable. There's lots of tutorials on how to use nvflash, though if you're already jailbroken then hopefully this will be simple. :)

Once you get into APX mode type in "nvflash --resume --download 6 newboot.img" and it should reboot after it's done uploading.

While I have the correct axis now, I get a bunch of pauses which I don't know is being cause by the CPU scheduler or by the GPU being overclocked (kernel compiling tells me that it's OC to 520MHz, don't know how to change it). If anyone who's testing can let me know if it's pausing for them I'd appreciate it so I can know if it's the kernel or just my tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mustkeg:
Nvflash did the trick, thank you. I will restore some of my apps and give Lollipop a try. If I should watch out for any more specific bugs or pull some logs, please let me know.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Angelwind:
Just FYI, any stalls that I reported on before may be coming from dex2oat, which I believe converts dalvik runtime to ART, and if an app doesn't like the conversion process it'll sit and drain the battery when it tries again. Best bet would be to install a logcat app of your choice and filter on dex2oat and see where the program is hanging in its conversion.

Dongle nor BT not working

Question...

Have you tried the GPS dongle functionability with this ROM?

I just bought it and downloaded the GPS status APK and get no SATS :eek:

Also found that BT is not working.

(I have flashed the TF201 compatibility prevously jsut for the record)

Anyone with similar issues?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
BT is working for most of us..just seems to cut out after you stop and restart the music or video and have to reboot to get it back..

Doogle doesn't work as the drivers need to be put into the kernel and as yet no one has done that for the TF201 on a lollypop 5 kernel..sorry to say..

Wow just stumbled on this after not visiting the tf201 forums in a long time! I have a question. I'm currently on Hairybean 2.3. I'm assuming because this is also a tf300 based rom, I can just download katkiss update recovery and just full wipe flash the rom then the compatibility pack?

I did find TheArtiszan's post in the old q&a thread
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
Was just about to post that for you..

Seems its straight forward..

Also you have the option on Tims with compatibility pack and Josh's with his tweaks..

Check his thread as its also a good one for many..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bryanlim05:
Haha thank you. I had it opened in another tab and figured it may help and also show that I have been searching around. I will update when I get this done.

Just one clarification, when you say "Also you have the option on Tims with compatibility pack and Josh's with his tweaks.." do you mean there are 2 different compatibility packs available? or are you referring to Josh's 14b rom in the old q&a thread? Thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
Josh's is 14b and you don't need to flash the compatibility pack..

But you can flash the new grimlock 5.0 kernel.

Tims latest is 15

So need to flash

ROM 15

Comparability pack

Kernel 5.0

Gapps..

And you are good to go..

Then decide if you want F2Fs for data..

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
As josh says...its a team effort..

Tims base, josh's work with comparability pack and hardslogs kernel..

Tf201 users are dam lucky to have josh still around and I take my hat off to him for carrying the flag on this device..

Asus should read these threads as really.. A slight change in memory and coding and they could have had a deluxe piece of equipment..

Not bagging engineers bit...seen enough in industry across the globe to know never leave an end product to a engineering team only..

I do like the form of these tablet but that memory is a shocker..

Thanks to F2fs and the magic of developers here this is a usable machine..

I haven't even thought about system out to sdcard or the other hacks as with this setup now its running fine..

Just need a few tweaks on the kernel to get ride of that screen tearing, GPS dongle modules loaded into kernel and it would be almost perfect as a daily driver..

As a note. How's everyone's screen jitter going?

Over clocking and what settings you are using?

Hi all, long time lurker, first time poster, here :) Just wanted to share my experience of upgrading my aging TF201 to the delights of lollipop.

It was completely stock, and getting pretty sluggish, so - time for a new ROM! As always, I started by carefully reading the various threads. The upgrade instructions are some of the clearest I've read on XDA, so kudos to all concerned.

I went with the latest TWRP 2.8.4 (needed this to get the F2FS option), and the 14b ROM from the other thread and the whole process went smooth as silk. Like I say, great instructions. :good:

However, the screen kept going dark randomly and the tablet never went into sleep mode. Flashing grimlock 5.0 sorted out both problems, and although I get the odd screen flicker, it doesn't bother me. The tablet now spends 90% of it's time in deep sleep, so battery life is awesome! Disabling keep awake for both 'google' and 'google play services' probably helped too... ;)

Overall, I'm really pleased with the results - performance is great and it feels like a new tablet, a huge improvement over stock. It's my first experience of lollipop too, which I have to say I really like.

Massive thanks and kudos to all the devs involved in this, us lesser mortals really appreciate it! :good:

TF201 - 14b (Josh version) - Feedback

Hi

I've just register to post my feedback. First of all, I thank developpers (Tim/Josh/surely other) for this nice job ! :good:

I apology for my english with is not my native langage :)

I have a TF201, and follow Josh tutorial : http://xdaforums.com/transformer-prime/help/katkiss-t2961256/post57227507#post57227507

I got problem with adb, and solve it with "copy/past" directly to the sdcard. I have to "unlock" TF201, and do it with "asus official apk". Luckily, fastboot work fine

All other I do is strictly what is writen in tutorial <= really nice job !

After I flash gapps to have "google-play" apk :)

I recover my app 1 by 1 from google play. No other thing/modification/mods

My feedback : This is really nice, fast, very good !

Problems encounters :

1/ I got the "black screen" from time to time

2/ BlueTooth : got the problem discribed by other (connectivity ok, but no play)

3/ Printer : I install "google print" and "HP print". Printer service is ok in TF201, but application ( web browser, picture galery, etc) seem to "dont see" the printer service and I dont have the "print" option. I try also the "share" option, but "google print" is not propose :(

For 1/ & 2/, it seems that solution is to flash Grimlock here : http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=8868 Is that correct ?

For 3/, I dont see anything on that ... Have you some advises ?

Looks like a new build 16 has been posted in the tf300 thread. Has anyone tried it yet? I assume if we flash this we would have to manually apply the fixes for the f2fs issues (removing some scripts).

Would it be possible to get a developer to add the changes that Josh made in the other tf201 thread that was closed to the tf201 compatibility pac?. This would make upgrades much easier moving forward.

Thanks.

Of course it's working on tf201. What f2fs issues do you refer to? None here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MadmanJay:
On Joshes version of the ROM he had made changes to the original tf300 that fixed a few things. One was to remove a script to fix hangs for f2fs on the tf201 when there was higher IO.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58446873&postcount=983

just check your wipes and give it a go again..

for the hell of it.. flash the actual rom without gapps a few times.. then Kernel and then boot to see if it sticks..

then once you get a full boot go back and flash it again..

and or flash 14b or 15 and get them to boot.. then dirty flash 16 over top and see if it still gives you trouble..

Overall.. Tims Roms are usually pretty stable releases so its usually the users tablet that is playing up..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] grand_ccx:
Hi

I have installed v14b following Josh tutorial

Because of "black screen", I have install Grimlock v5.0

I have set 2 Printer Service : 1 with Google Print, and another with HP Print Service

But ... how can I print ? Option "Print" doesn't appear (in browser for exemple), and printer service are not in "share list".
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
I couldn't get the printing service of Android running either, but there are 3rd-party apps in the store which do the job. In my case it's a Samsung over printserver in WLAN. I think I have seen solutions for HP also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lpfan83:
For people on the tf201 with issues installing Tim's v16, flashing the rom, gapps, then grimlock 5 makes boot with no issues other than error 927 on the play store.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheArtiszan:
Is the play store error fixable?

I haven't gone past version 14 yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Angelwind:
You have to format (not wipe) /data for the 927 error to go away.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheArtiszan:
Huh, that's interesting. Especially since it will clear everything from it.

But if it fixes it that should be fine.

f2fs still works right?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lpfan83:
I've searched for a fix, but nothing I have found works for me

I.E. wiping data and cache of google play store and services but all to no avail. *shakes fist*
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
Format data...

not wipe...

Will take some time..

mine Ext4 about 20-30mins..

Worked for me, play store working fine..

I came from the slim 4.4.4...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
That surely helps, but isn't necessary.

The difference between wipe and format /data is, that with format you delete internal sdcard. So that is the crucial point. The problems with dirty flashed gapps derive from faulty settings in sdcard0/Android or sdcard0/data.

It would be sufficient to wipe those (specally those with prefixed com.google... and com.android.) And of course wipe dalvik cache.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Angelwind:
I've tried wiping data, clearing caches, and reinstalling gapps until the cows came home. :) Formatting was the only way to do it. Once it formatted I redid the changed it to F2FS (it'll format to ext4 when you tell to format).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
That's why I always format manually (if needed):

su [enter]
mkfs.f2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 [enter]
reboot [enter]

Disclamer: Check typing before [enter], you could brick tablet, when formatting wrong partition.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 808style:
don't you have to flash the tf201 compatibility pack too?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
I usually do..then flash kernel after that..

So wipes/ formats (when necessary)

Flash ROM

Compatibility pack..really unessential as per below.,

Kernel

Gapps

SU

Compatibility pack could be done away with if you want to go in and edit the necessary files yourself..

As we are flashing the important part again which is the kernel...

Edit: Tims a machine..I just flashed v17 across all devices.. Running like a dream..

But this time I flashed Banks minimal gasps package...

thank you for laying out the exact order to flash things in! :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
Tims v17 running great on my tablet..

fast/snappy and no lag/hangs between opening and closing programs..

Only thing I can see glitchy so far is the performance settlings. I can adjust max but not min or governor settings..

But using one of the cpu control apps fixes it..

Same is happening on Zomi-pop so it could be a call to kernel related matter.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
It sure is a kernel related matter. I'm running tf700t with v17 and _thatt11+ kernel. No issue to switch performance settings.

Didn't try on my tf201 as of now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 808style:
Sadly v17 was unusable for me. Constant crashing, reboots, SODs. Not sure why it doesn't agree with my tablet. I had to revert back to v14. :(

My data partition is formated as f2fs if that makes any difference.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
I took my back to basics due to flashing slim 4.4.4 then Zomi in quick succession...

I am f2fs at moment too..

Do have a question for those that use F2fs.

My TB backups dont like to restore back to it...I am wondering if its because the backup was done in an Ext4 format.?

Even trying to flash a set of backup apps made by tb doesn't work..

Its says it flashed OK..then will boot in 5 seconds but takes for ages and never boots..so I reboot it and none of the apps have stuck..

But over all...its running smooth..

Manually loaded up apps so am still pushing it through its paces...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Neviker:
Hi... did you made the dongle work?

does this issue gets fixed by flashing grimlock?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
You didn't tell, what you did exactly, but generally:

1. TB works only on it's newest versions with Lollipop properly.

2. From Kitkat to Lollipop there was a change of system (Dalvik -> ART) so it is difficult to play back backups that were made in one system to the other system. I made good experience with a two-step system: First I play back the app without data, let the app run and than play back data. May be voodoo but it helps.

3. Playing back batch backups is a weak point with TB; never got it running properly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgcruzing:
Scenario 1: back up all apps with TB under a ext4 format data partition (normally will restore with no data, maybe the odd app will get restored with data after a boot with all apps restored)

Restore to an ext4 parition - no problems..

Scenario 2: make a flashable backup of all apps with TB under a ext4 partition.

Restore apps via flash method to an ext4 partition no problems..

Scenario 3 : try to restore Scenario 1 TB backup apps to an F2Fs data partitioned machine.. Fail

Scenario 4: try to flash Scenario 2 TB flashable backup to an F2Fs data partition machine... Fail

Need to make a back up with an F2Fs machine and see if it will restore to another F2Fs machine..

if not then we know that TB doesn't play well with F2Fs backups
