Mine does get warm after large usage.

But I also started to get a large Lag. Couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Went from fast to lag. Got frustrated and rebooted it. In the reboot, an Android update occured (5 parts). After that, it was flying again. Never even saw an update that was downloading so I was suprised. Been a few days now and still flying.

5.1 Beta 3 mirrors are up - get downloading! :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
What, am I the first to respond on beta 3? Well, I dirty installed over beta 2, and no issues yet at all. Except... more speed! Went with the new default kernel (Omni?) and defaulted everything else as well except as usual I had to go ahead and disable fsync -- even though this is on an external (rom2sd) install. I know that's discouraged during the install... but since the 5.1 hit I've doubled back on my old paranoia about fsync off and now embrace it. Works fine (so far!).

Oh, I did install the gapps to system (the new default, correct?). Didn't want to be boring and Finnish... harhar. One question, though... if I dirty installed, does that mean there are two copies of gapps on my tablet? Hmm?

Speeds: nearly 9000 on Quadrant (yes, I know, not that reliable... but it is a speed increase from the previous tests, which were more around 6500 to 7100.

On Antutu got 2389 as a top score of two tries (the other almost as good). That beats my previous high w/ this rom (around 2100).

Will report if any flakiness.
[Asus Transformer TF700] kevinthefixer:
Thank you! FYI, my TF300 is quite happy without GAPPs (it runs KatKiss). I get most of my apps from Amazon anyway. Going to DL Beta3 right now, maybe make my 700 just as happy?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
My experience too.

I think the new gapps is better. And don't worry about doubting up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] loner.:
The internal install using f2fs is running a lot better and faster than the rom2sd using the default kernel and the sdcard is a sandisk ultra class 10 64GB using f2fs for the /data and same settings. :(

[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
Hi. I dirty installed beta 3 with the gapps to system. My data2sd system partition is 1gb so I got low disk space messages. So I did another dirty install putting the gapps in data. I don't know if I had the play store one the first install, but now I don't have it. It doesn't seem to be an installable option from the play store using the web. I recall the earlier discussion about having options for getting apps. Does beta 3 incl the play store and I missed the option?

Kernel aroma

Hi.

I like this rom very much, great job all you people that are working on this.

One question, is it possible to make an aroma only with the kernels in it so we can quickly chance to another kernel without doing the full install procedure.

Keep up the good work for our old tablet.

:good:

Best regards

I think I missed permissions for the /data installs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rprussell:
Here's a odd one -

I flashed with a dalvik/cache clean over beta ONE, tried with gapps in /data - when it came up, there were no gapps at all.

So I reflashed and put it in /system, and all seemed well except now there's no WiFi.

It just sits there trying to turn it on.

I rebooted, will re-reflash, but has anyone else found (and more importantly SOLVED) this one?

Um, nvermind. A re-reflash worked. WEIRD.

Hi,

Can I please get a link to a 5.0.2 build. 5.1 is a nightmare to use. Navigation is impossible...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It's in the download tab at the top of this page.

I wouldn't recommend 5.0.2 personally as it has many bugs and memory leaks which cause reboots.

If you have issues with the rom please post a logcat of your activities so we can tell you why.

For me this is the smoothest rom I have used for a long time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
1) On 5.0.2 I did not have A SINGLE issue, no reboots, ever...

2) Should I use f2fs rather and if, how do I format internal device f2fs?

3) tried the latest build, freezes at WiFi selection.

please help sbdags

Ps. The only issue I have with 5.1 is lag. I wait 10-15 second for ANY touch input response
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
1) 5.0.2 is very buggy. How do I know? I helped build it.

2) Yes I would always recommend F2FS. You can convert data from EXT4 to F2FS in the latest TWRP (2.8.6.0) in the Advanced Format menu.

3) Post a logcat please.

See post 3 for instructions.

Anyone have a flashable 2.8.6.0?

Beta 3

Dirty flashed beta 3 this morning. Internal on F2FS from Beta 2. Very fast!!!!

Problem is Play Store. After flashing, play store and YouTube stopped working. I've reflashed that ROM again, but no change. Any sugesstions?

Trying not to have to full clean before installing.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Did you choose the gapps to /data option? If so it is not working and I will be removing it from the next version. There are certain things that need to go onto /system I have found out

Otherwise try clearing data on google play store and google play services and then reboot.

If that fails then post a logcat after the error.

Clean flash. ROM2SD, f2fs. Pretty smooth so far. Just started restoring Apps :good:

One thing I noticed is the CPU speed selected with _that kernel in Aroma still is not sticking. Selected 1600 performance and it was 1800 in settings after boot.

Yeah I noticed the same. You can set it down to 1600 manually but I suspect omni works out its cpu speed differently.

Beta 4 is in the works with the following changes - I wasn't happy with the GAPPS to /data implementation ;)

DO NOT USE THE GAPPS TO /DATA IN BETA 3 PLEASE

Beta 4 fixes

- Fixed GAPPS to /data partition not working correctly

- Removed minimal GAPPS to /data option as minimal GAPPS only work on /system

- Installer now removed redundant GAPPS folders on /data if you previously installed them there

- Added Aroma code to remember previous selections as well as offer various installs

- sbdags best, omni default, previous installation

- Getting closer to RC1!

Sorry for vagueness, tried to flash the new beta over beta 2 while enabling f2fs with rom2sd, but there were some formatting issues in twrp.

Just got back to the drawing board, installed the newest twrp, formatted internal, formatted sd in gparted, reformatted to f2fs in twrp and installed everything anew. Can't say why it didn't work the first time, but thankfully enabling f2fs wasn't as hard as I thought.

Keep up the good work guys!
[Asus Transformer TF700] kevinthefixer:
Just want to say thanks--and Wow! This is just a beta? I've only been playing for about 3 hours now but it's handled everything I've thrown at it without even a hiccup. I use the "connect dock", it has full functions. It's FAST, what it should have been when it was new. (Running internal install, f2fs with _that/sdbags OC kernel maxed at 1700). Since there is nothing more I can fix with this tablet, I reckon I'll go play with it for awhile!

Hey all!

So, I have followed all the steps to get me to where I can and did install Z-Pop from TWRP.

I installed it with all of the default setting and then rebooted my device . Now, it just sits at the spinning 4 colors and will not proceed beyond that point.

For now, I have booted back in to TWRP and choose 'POWER OFF' in order to have it not just sitting there spinning till the battery goes dead.

I will preface this by saying that I am a VERY tech mended individual who has done tech support for YEARS but this is ALL new to me. So: where do I go from here, good people? I am quite stuck. :eek:

Grimlock kernal option

Hi all,

Tried the grimlock kernal when I installed and it was so slow. Kept locking up and had to keep killing apps. Tried to get a catalog, but the catalog app never logged anything. It never requested root access, and I couldn't get it to request it either. Flashed over to my old standby that's kernal and everything works as it should. Catalog requests root and the tablet is pretty quick.

Any ideas?

Don't use grimlock ;) Mine wouldn't even finish booting.

The omni kernel works well - try that.

I also cannot understand how can anyone call this device (with rom2sd and f2fs) even remotely fast. Maybe if you don't install any apps... But stuff like gmail, hangouts, official Facebook app can easily open for up to 20 seconds. I'm booting from 64GB sdxc class 10 UHS I card.

Converting to F2FS will completely wipe your internal sdcard/data partition.

You can convert to F2FS in the latest TWRP. In my experience it is much faster to use.

Zombies 5.1 B3 install troubles

Hi I've been flashing Roms for quite some time but something went wrong this time and I can't seem to recover. Hoping someone can help me out.

I gave a rom2sd and data2sd setup. Currently in boot I get the android repairing screen for 15 plus minutes and at end it says data encryption unsuccessful, reboot into recovery to do a factory reset. I can get into recovery bootloader but choosing rck results in the android repairing screen and the data encryption error again.

I've tried reflashing latest twrp via adp commands, seems to complete successfully but fastboot reboot commands then fail. I reboot from tablet power buttons but goes back again to data encryption problem.

Thinking next step is to reformat partitions via adp but unsure exactly how to do that.

720p videos stutter in-browser flash

This might not be directly related to the rom, but can anyone confirm that 720p videos stutter via in-browser flash streaming, e.g. on youtube?

I am currently on the latest beta 3, internal f2fs, Grimlock Kernel, did a full wipe and everything else seems smooth.

I avoid proprietary software and therefore do not use gapps as well as the youtube app. Instead, I am looking for a solution to stream flash videos from different sources smoothly in 720p or 1080p. However, currently the problem remains on different browsers (Firefox, Lightning Browser, Javelin) and also on other roms and kernels, I have tried.

Since even my galaxy s2 i9100 manages to stream 720p smoothly, this shouldn't be a challenge for the tf700t hardware-wise...

Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Well for starters youtube does not use flash, it uses html5 ...

I also tweaked the cpu settings so it should try to go to all cores slightly quicker. I am getting 8700 - 9000 quadrant scores on both internal and rom2sd as F2FS. If I switch to EXT4 then that drops significantly.

20150406 ZOMBi-POP 5.1 Beta 4 changes

- Repacked _that's kernel with an attempt to solve heat issues - I think I know what it is

- Fixed _that OC to 1800MHz on internal/data2sd installs

- Fixed GAPPS to /data partition not working correctly

- Removed GAPPS to /data option as GAPPS only work on /system

- Installer now removes redundant GAPPS folders on /data if you used the beta 3 installer

- Updated Google Play Store version 5.4.10

- Added Aroma code to remember previous selections as well as offer various installs

- sbdags best auto install, omni default auto install, previous options and previous auto install

- Getting closer to RC1!

What I've started doing with apps that don't sync settings is to look in the menu for any import/export option and export my settings, then import again. For instance, if you use K-9 Mail app, you can export all your settings with the exception of your passwords, and import them to your new ROM, and just enter the passwords again and you're all set. With other apps that had schedules or triggers, I take a screenshot of the schedules page and just switch back and forth from the screenshot to the settings page till I have it set up right again.
