Dirty flashed 5.1 Beta01 over 5.0 Beta 10 last night, letting it stabilize over the night and seemed pretty stable this morning, will let it sit throughout the day and do some benchmarking and stress testing tonight to where it comes down, but seemed pretty stable, had one spontaneous reboot about 40 min. into the first boot, seemed to originate in heavy disc load while switching between apps, nothing uncommon for a TF700T owner ofc :)

I have a question regarding peoples experience with the _Omni kernel with "sbdags" tweaks (bottom option in the installer) been trying this a few times and trying to get my head about the CPU OC/governor options. Does it automatically boot in "Performance" mode, as I set the the "Balanced" to top at 1.5 GHZ and the Performance to 1.7 GHZ, and judging from the performance monitor the cores seem to run with clock speeds up to 1.7 GHZ immediately to the boot. Having experienced slightly more increased spontaneous reboots with higher clock speeds, I was wondering if this could be one of the sources to my seeing a few of these with that kernel flashed rather than the "stock" omni kernel?

Thanks for the great work as always
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
odd. i don't remember there being a time zone selection during setup.

is that because i selected United States? :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
After playing with this the whole day (not doing any work), I find that 5.0.2 is much smoother than 5.1... Anyone else?
[Asus Transformer TF700] glecko:
I too don't recall a time zone selection...

But I did get the "Setup Wizard has STOPPED" message - this was caused by bypassing connecting to a Wi-Fi network. Once I connected to a Wi-Fi network, everything was fine in the setup process.
[Asus Transformer TF700] WillyRy:
Installed quick and easy first time. _that OC kernel w/ OC enabled. F2FS

Let it sit for 30 minutes without touching a thing on the "select language" setup page, and it has been probably the snappiest ROM version for me yet.

No reboots or hangs! Pretty sweet for a Beta :good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jamteck:
ZOMBI-POP =Awesome Thank you sbdags.

I installed the titanium back up from the initial installation but it seems that I can't upgrade to the pro version for some reason and same goes for super su.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lmmohr4:
Joslh, thanks,

That worked. Still can't make the tab do it.

See attachment. Second best Antutu I've ever had.

lmm
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Ok do this reboot the tab ....

Once on the home screen press the VOL DOWN and POWER buttons at the same time ....

VOL DOWN on the 700 is the left VOL button , or the one closest to the POWER button ... :p

Do this 3 or 4 times or untill it takes a screenshot ..... If it does not do anything ....

Pull a logcat .....

adb logcat > logcat.txt

Let it run for 10 secs or so kill it and post the file ....

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Nope. Been using 5.1 for 3 days and the tab is an absolute joy to use!

5.0.2 was pants in comparison.

Something is up with your setup is my guess.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes I should probably change the installer. There is only one mode now. Performance. :p

First Glitch

Zpop 5.1 B1 R2SD F2FS

Had a spontaneous reboot (yeah Josh, trying to get a screenshot working) and when it came up the loader showed "starting android 1 of 142",ect. etc. Booted back into recovery.

Restored a nandroid from yesterday. Wished I'd done one today.

I know, I know....I'll get the log next time.:( and it was running sooooo great. 2355 Antutu

lmm
[Asus Transformer TF700] foothill17:
Thanks

Thanks Sbdags and crew. You've made the tab that I was ready to retire useable again. Actually I think it's better than it was when brand new. I know it's a work in progress but it's already pretty great. Thanks again..
[Asus Transformer TF700] drewski_1:
running pretty snappy! :good:

is it just my imagination, or do the home screens have fat margins in Landscape? ROM2SD, stock resolution. 213 DPI.

more than I remember with 5.0.2, but it's been awhile (went back to CROMI-x 5.4 for awhile). much wider than on my N10 and CROMI-x on this device (internal. just booted back to it to make sure i wasn't going crazy)

this is both Omni Launcher & Nova Launcher (set to No Margins)

Portrait uses the full screen.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Can I make a suggestion re the screen shot? Try holding down the volume down button just a split second before hitting the power button. That works for me. The tolerance on it is not very great -- if you get much of a time slice in there at all, the buttons do not take the screen shot.

---------- Post added at 07:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

First, the good (and it is almost all good). Zombie 5.1 is *Very* smooth compared to previous version; frankly I think Google themselves messed up on that last outing. Nothing bad has happened, so it is hard to offer any real help! No logs, that is, because nothing anomalous happened yet.

One small problem, though, that's more a glitch maybe.... when the tablet has been closed (I have dock connected almost all the time) and is reopened after a long charge or even sleep, it comes awake but is totally unresponsive, then goes to sleep. When I reawaken it a second time, it then allows me to slide the screen lock and gain control of the tablet.

But really, a beta 1 and we're this good already?! Good golly miss molly!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ariesjunk:
After flashing this beta, the tablet got stuck when I tried to format the data previously in f2fs format. Force re-starting the tablet and try to boot into recovery to restore the backup but the tablet get stuck on the twrp screen. The twrp screen keeps flashing. Re-flashing twrp through fastboot does not help and the tablet still cannot get into the recovery. Appreciate if someone could give me some advises. Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Yikes. I have no answer for you, but what was the TWRP you had/have installed? I've read weird stuff about 2.8.5 and beyond. Stuck with 2.8.4. In order to help the other geeks (the guys who will, unlike me, be able to really help) perhaps you could describe how you'd gone about the installation and so forth. Hoping for a great outcome for you.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
What bootloader version are you on ??

What recovery and version ??

Did you disable 'Journaling' in the aroma installer ??

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] ariesjunk:
Originally on CROMi-x 5.4 internal with data partition formatted as f2fs by a modified twrp 2.70. System has been running ok with some lags from time to time. I beleive I have the latest partition as I am able to install and run ZOMBI-POP OMNI 5.1 on external SD card. Rom2Sd performance is not very good. Decide to try installing it internally to see if it makes any difference by doing followings:

1. Upgrade twrp to latest KANG TWRP 2.8.5.1

2. Sucessfully flash ZOMBI-POP 5.1 internally with jounaling disabled

3. Wipe by formatting data partition but get stuck forever

4. Forces restarting tablet abd get stuxk with twrp screen flashing

5. Not able to get into recovery even reflashing twrp

Do not know which step I did it wrong.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Step 3 and 4 is where you went wrong ...

Format all but this time let it finish, may take 90 mins ...

Plug it into power and let it do its thing ..... :good:

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] ariesjunk:
The problem is I cannot get into recovery now. It stucks with twrp logo screen flashing.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
If you're lucky this will help: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54521117&postcount=10

If not, you may have to fastboot flash the Asus stock blob. And if you can't get into the bootloader we'll have to set you up with _that's bootit.ko.

Just don't do anything desperate right now. Try the adb command from the link if you have adb while the twrp screen keeps flashing and report back.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ariesjunk:
All adb commands completed successfully but still stuck on twrp logo screen flashing. While I am able to re-flash twrp and format system by fastboot, I cannot format userdata. Is the partition corrupted?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Yes. You hosed it when you interrupted the format. But that can be repaired.

You need to give us more detail. "ADB commands successful", "cannot format data in fastboot" is not helpful.

Provide the input/output from your cmd window so that we see what you're doing and what the return is.

As long as you have fastboot, you're ok. Don't jeopardize it...
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Well if you can get adb , what does this command do ?

adb reboot-bootloader

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
I did a full wipe (everything except /sdcard) and installed like i did my 5.0.2. This 5.1 is an absolute nightmare to use. Most of the time it takes 5-10 seconds for stuff to respond after tapping the screen...
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Logs ?

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] Falkenhorst:
Dirty flashed from last Version, no problems at all. Works pretty good, no random reboots or excessive lags. Just the normal delay we TF700 users have to live with. Thank you very much for your work!
[Asus Transformer TF700] FordPrefect:
Absolutely second that ... did a fresh install (cleaning everything, proper re-install apps from PlayStore etc.) and the tab is really nice to use. For me the 5.0.2 showed lag and a lot of "Wait or close" messages. This is a lot better now.

As of right now, I can only observe two (very minor) annoyances:

Smart lock locations seem not to work. I have to tap in my PIN wherever I am.

The OpenVPN problem still is there (OpenVPN can connect but is unable to resolve domain names)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Viking8:
So a couple days into using the new 5.1 beta1 and everything is working great except of course the battery! It drains pretty fast in comparison to roms that have had more battery tweaks like crombi-kk.

Of note, thus far I have not experienced one random reboot with 5.1, so yay to that! :fingers-crossed: And, this tablet is running along pretty fast, you know, for a tf700!!! ;)

I was curious where the setting is to make the battery icon change to a percentage though? Can't seem to find it anywhere. Or, perhaps it just hasn't been added in yet???

Thanks everyone!

Zombi Kang on Rom2sd Zombi pop on internal?

Is it ok to install this 5.1 on the internal when I am using the latest Zombi Kang on a Rom2SD installation?

My concern is with the kernel for the internal installation vs the rom2sd installation. Will there be a problem? I thought at one point we had to have the same kernel on both?
[Asus Transformer TF700] nate39:
Just my two cents worth. This ROM has been great so far. I came from the Zombi KK and wiped everything but the internal storage. What I liked about this flash was that it automatically downloaded all my apps so I didn't have to for the most part. Thanks guys, this is really nice.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lfb02000:
ZOMBi-POP-5.1_B1_omni_tf700t-KANG_signed

Running it for 24 hours and have not found any problems although the battery went from 100% to 20% in three hours. GMail signup and installing from Playstore working fine. This build is smooth and zippy off internal storage. The rotational issue seems to be based on the app...some just will not go into landscape but many do so it seems to be working based on the app. The screen is sharper and has more detailed resolution. WiFi and browsing are good. This build is the best I have tried and has made this device zippy enough that my plans to trashcan it are gone. Still testing but so far excellent.

f2fs for /cache

I tried formatting /cache as f2fs after installing the latest Beta and it hangs during the boot animation. Sorry if this has been answered over and over, but how to I capture a meaningful log? By using ADB while the tablet is attached to a PC?

Thanks!

Gene
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
You have some rubbish leftover in there somewhere. Format your /data partition and try again. This will wipe EVERYTHING including media. Also make sure you wipe /system. If it is this laggy then something went wrong during the install. Either that or you are running data2sd or rom2sd and you need to re-format your card.

Do NOT format /cache as f2fs. The only partition that this rom supports as f2fs is /data
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
I ALWAYS do a full internal wipe (/sdcard included) and I dont use data/rom2sdc...
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
I don't mean wipe - I mean format. There is a difference :)

[Asus Transformer TF700] ntunix:
Thanks! Learned this the hard way: multiple failed install attemps on the latest v5.1 during boot (would hang on boot animation).

But won't this make the system slow after a while? I mean, the reason we switched from ext4 to f2fs on data was to get rid of the lag...
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
So you now can erase everything flash the stock asus blob and start over ....

Let me know if you need any help along the way .....

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anders Williams:
Ahhh, cheers mate, makes so much more sense now :)

Thanks, I will test the non-oc kernel over the weekend, because I am definitely seeing some (over)heating and battery drain on the OC version of the "_that" kernel, had two spontanious reboots so far, so the _that (oc) kernel at high loads does seem to have some issues, I imagine it's due to either overheating or voltage setting at the higher frequencies
[Asus Transformer TF700] evimarn:
Just installed using sdbags kernel and 1600x1000 red and its faaast running from about one in the morning and have to say its the fastest I have ever seen this thing running.The red does not show as bad as one think well I am happy as a lark. Thanks Devs BTW antutu shows 25K plus awesome.All I did was the cleanest install with data format in ext4 then f2fs. Great .
[Asus Transformer TF700] ariesjunk:
I am really no expert on this. Appreciate if you can give me some directions to start. Thanks a lot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] eRPeeX:
I've had the same issue.

First did a clean install (all wipe) .... Laggy

Second did a hyper clean install (all wipe and format data >90 minutes) ... Better

Third did a dirty install ... Smooth as butter.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:

[Asus Transformer TF700] lmmohr4:
It's not a 5.1 problem... I had the same thing on a second install. The first was working perfect with an Antutu of 23500+, then I fouled it up and had to reload and now am working with the unit programmed the same but slower touch response and Antutu of 21100. Both were clean Rom2SD installs. Go figure.

Did you succeed having the VPN working. tried several vpn apps and none seems to be working. I'm using Zombie-POP 5.1 beta 1
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
So... still creamy smooth with Zombi-5.1. But in an attempt to get more speed out of it, I went for a lower screen resolution. Oddly, I'm not at all sure it worked the first time. So I went back -- time not a premium issue at the moment -- and wiped my rom2sd install. Then reinstalled again w/ the 1600x1000 selected. Results are... I suspect this is still at 1900 resolution. Antutu gives me an identical score as before the lower res, as does Quadrant. Hmm. I used the default sbdags / _that kernel. Any clues? I may go back and disable fsync even though I've been told not to when running rom2sd, and even though with 5.01 I had plenty of meltdowns doing that. Hey, what's a mellow evening for? Will report back. But meanwhile, if there's anything I should know about beta1's screen resolution, please do let me know.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Fsync disabled using rom2sd1... and so far, so good! ;) Though.... in light of little change to Antutu scores, wondering if that switch (and maybe others) in the beta isn't working?

ADDED LATER: Antutu score is better, I'm finding. 23514 is one of the faster scores I've gotten from Antutu ever. And this, I'd remind, is on the rom2sd install not the internal.

If fsync is in fact disabled as I set it up to be, I have worked this tablet out fairly heavily tonight, loading up new programs, runnng antutu and angry birds and OfficeSuite 8. Not a flutter of a problem yet.

Thank you, sbdags and all who have contributed. (Still shaking my head that this is only beta1)!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rubister:
I actually am on Zombi KitKat at the moment, because I wanted to do some testing with the usefulness of the floating windows feature, and VPN apps work on that ROM. I think we've realized name resolution isn't working, no idea why it's not, and I don't think it has anything to do with this ROM, I think it's Lollipop. I haven't been able to dig up much on it though, perhaps because there aren't many VPN users using Lollipop yet? But the fact it works on Zombi-KK and not Zombi-Pop makes me think it's a Lollipop issue, not an issue with the Zombi ROM base.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ikkeT:
YES, sudden blank screen issue is gone! Thanks lj50036, hardslog, sbdags and _that for your patient quidance :)

Wasn't this discussed while a ago? Someone posted a link to article that described how route settings have changed in Lollipop, and unmodified apps can't set routes correctly. It was default route vs. vpn selected routes only -selection that doesn't work. The VPN in general works, I have it working.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You will see little benefit to fsync off on rom2sd with a good card.

I'll check the res later.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RedSkyRoad:
Enlighten me, please :)

PS: [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION], which installation settings would be the best for an install on the internal device?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
The default ones. Do a format /data first.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
Go to TWRP - Wipe - Format Data (the option on the right) and then type yes. This will delete EVERYTHING on your internal storage and is sometimes the only way to clean your devices of some leftover GAPPS rubbish. If you have media on your tablet back it up first :p

Oh yes, and sometimes this takes about 90 minutes to complete so go make yourself a cuppa tea while you are waiting :silly:

changes to support /cache as f2fs

What routine creates "fs_detected" ? I am thinkning that adding a check of the format for /cache there and then adding another "if" statement for the /cache partition in "30fstab-f2fs" wouild handle the cache being optionally formatted at f2fs. Would any other changes be needed?

Gene
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
My custom init binary writes this file. However I don't think there is any point in formatting /cache as f2fs, as it may cause problems with the recovery, and it isn't used for anything else anyway.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Interface settings? If you mean themes and the like omni is a light android experience ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes be careful as android on our devices doesn't use the /cache partition - only recovery does so you may make it more troublesome than it is worth.

Actually, the battery percentage indicator (or lack of it) is a Lollipop thing, not Zombi/Omni. Install Battery Percent Enabler from the Play Store (it's by an XDA developer). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.kroegerama.android4batpercent&hl=en
