These are worth taking a look at ......

Let me have a look.... :D

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Can you try to copy the movie to the internal storage and see if that fails with the same ntfs-3g errors? If yes, the problem is entirely unrelated to videos.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Okay, this is interesting.... and thank you for compiling the errors. I am baffled. I did nothing with either the camera or bluetooth, which is off by default on my tab to my knowledge. Gonna take a gander around, though. I may try reinstalling... or just leave well enough alone if I can't figure out what all that was about.

What is it f2fs ? Where i can find instructions for it ? What is different of rom2sd data2sd and f2fs ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] awilson77584:
I am running the 5.1.1 release. _that kernel. I clean wipes the internal and data2sd filesystems. I'm running f2fs. All tweaks. I had a couple of spontaneous reboots. I've attached a logcat. I hope it is the correct one. I don't have a Windows machine to do an adb pull.

Thx

Need a last_kmsg from /proc after a reboot. Thanks.

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Your attachments aren't showing up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Well, I'm going to wipe totally and try this again, because now the Omni kernel also crashed. But just for the sake of others' research... hehehe... I offer the log to this crash as well.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ikkeT:
just want to post an update to my previous comment as encouragement for the others suffering the above: it's thing of a past for time being again \o/

The issues were hitting me continuously. I thought it could be filesystem "discard/trimming" related. So I did my best to force trimming of file systems. I forced trim by formatting partitions to ext4 from twrp, as _that pointed out. Then I changed /data back to f2fs. I installed the latest omni, which is close to latest zombi. Now the tablet is quick again, the minutes of constant lagging and problem dialogs are gone again :)

Perhaps it was just the wipe, but I have a doubt the f2fs needs trimming too, and not the automatic one. Perhaps it does discards while trying to write stuff, and thus generates excessive i/o?
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
I've reinstalled. This time, just to be redundant (heh), I factory wiped but then also manually wiped /system /cache /data and, well, one other one that slips the ol' brain cells. NOT internal data. Then reinstalled (again internal) with _that kernel cranked all the way up to 1800, and the stock settings on screen, plus maxxed out speed settings. So far.... so good. Haven't tried any antutu type stuff yet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] 2ral:
Is there a way to hide kernel init log at startup ? And also how to bring the keyboard dock battery icon to system bar? Guys I have never expected that we will find out android 5.1.1 on this old device :))) you are awesome

Also could we expect in future updates additional point on sleeping timer in display features which disables sleep mode permanently ? It would be better instead of using additional apps which consumpt resources
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Yes, you can hide the log on start up .....

Go here https://github.com/zombi-x find the kernel source and revert those commits .....

The battery dock icon will be ready when its ready ....

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Ran antutu and got a 22300 score... pushed it with both the stock browser and a custom one called browser NPpro... both run fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] kevinthefixer:
PLEASE read the thread, all of it, before asking the same questions that have been asked & answered several times before.
[Asus Transformer TF700] relaps:
F2fs stands for flash friendly formatting and is supported for the data partition of sbdag's zombi pop installation. The only way I was able to format f2fs without too much fuss was by installing the kang version of twrp 2.8.6.x

Best of luck
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Sorry, guys... had to go back to beta6 of 5.1 -- the new 5.1.1 version didn't crash my third time out, but was just not as fast and also not as smooth as 5.1. This may be just me / my tablet.

Both versions - _that kernel, overclocked to 1800, all other settings maxxed. Antutu gives me only 21400 w/ 5.1 (beta 6)... but 24341 w/ 5.1.1 (beta 1).
[Asus Transformer TF700] RADiuMOz:
It's funny - I've been finding 5.1.1. not as smooth as 5.1 b6, as well - my AnTuTu score dropped from 24137 to 23322 - not a massive drop, but it's more that it just doesn't seem as smooth. Just had another quick look as my son wanted to watch "Minecraft Movies" on YouTube, and navigation didn't seem as smooth. I'll leave it for longer as it hasn't actually crashed on me. I still can't get minimum core speed changes to stick, nor change to "Performance" using the system settings - and haven't had a chance to try TricksterMod, yet (because my son's now watching YouTube :D).

Attached is the Antutu screenshot, seeing as I posted the other screenshots (note the much lower score for I/O).

Please note sbdags, etc. I'm _NOT_ complaining about the ROM/Kernel, etc. and sorry my findings aren't exactly scientific, nor necessarily helpful :confused: This ROM is still waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than anything else I've ever had on the TF700T!!! And still VERY useable, now :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Let me post a test patch to put the cpu and kernel tweaks back to 5.1b6 to see if this helps as it could be the new tweaks I added have slowed things down a tad.

It's the balance of trying to get better battery life / less heat / stability vs speed :)

5.1.1b1 Test Patch for peformance

Hi All,

If you feel like performance has dropped on the latest beta can you please try this patch. It would be good if you had some before and after benchmarks (Antutu or Quadrant) so I can see the differences it is making. Also post the kernel you tested on please.

Thanks!

[Asus Transformer TF700] 2ral:
When we come to performance feature you would better roll back to cromi-x rom with default asus kernel where tablet works rather smoother compared to lollipop. The reason using lollipop is functionality. The bootup time differs in 2 times (maybe it's only the case with my tablet) and all software and apex launcher is not creating crash reports
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Well I can confirm this has given me an extra couple of thousand points in Antutu and does 'feel' better so worth flashing :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Frobbit:
well, after waiting a long time for the movie to transfer to internal, I could finally test it and to my surprise, the movie runs perfectly.... I wonder if itcould be the file system of the sdcard. I use NTFS to handle large file both on my PC and my tab, could this rom have trouble reading this file format unlike zombi-X? thanks, at least I have way to watch hd movie on this rom now!
[Asus Transformer TF700] RADiuMOz:
Bit of an improvement in Antutu, but seems a LOT better in general usage! Cheers sbdags! Definitely this appears to be the best yet.

Three comparison charts attached, from Antutu: First is the highest my tablet's ever got, which was with 5.1.0 Beta 6 _that 1800MHz.png (not 100% sure it was 1800MHz in the performance screen, but almost 100% sure I selected it when installing the kernel - note: the slower result with the Omni kernel - shown in previous post, was better in real life usage); second is 5.1.1 Beta 1 _that 1800MHz (set in the performance screen); third is 5.1.1 Beta 1 Patched _that 1800MHz.

All three sets of results were with Interactive Governor, Noop I/O scheduler and Minimum speed 204MHz (because I can't change any of them in the performance settings screen to anything else - I just tried TricksterMod and this allowed me to change the Governor to Performance - it's the fourth attachment, which is my new High Score :)).

Would it hurt leaving the Governor set to Performance and max freq, 1800MHz? Or should I just use it for once-off, more intensive things? The Antutu test doesn't last very long and so the tablet didn't get at all hot, so it's not very indicative.

Cheers,

Richard.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
When you installed it did you choose _that's manually and set it to OC 1800 in the installer? I run 1600 personally as 1800 gets too hot.

BTW I get 2300 for my IO on Antutu so there is something different between us...
[Asus Transformer TF700] RADiuMOz:
Yes - I did. Are your other numbers similar?

Btw - I didn't wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache when installing the patch: it didn't look like something which might require it, but I'd be happy to (will have to be tomorrow, though (almost 10pm, here, have stuff to do in the kitchen, now :()
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Did you copy the movie from the sdcard to the internal storage, or did you re-transfer it from your computer? I'd like to get a confirmation that the ROM generally can't read files > 2 GB from NTFS.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Frobbit:
I initially tried to copy directly in the tablet using my file manager, but it would always fail. It would start and after about 300-500 mb of transfer it fails. I then transfered using my PC, which worked perfectly. I did more tests and it seems like 2-3gb movies run well, but it does not work when the movie is 6-8 gb. ( I don't currenlty have movies between 3 and 6 to do more extensive tests; but I can give it a shot in the next few days).
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anders Williams:
Tweak gave it a good little boost.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes this is close to what I get. :)

I/O over 2300 and you got very good scores.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Cache wipes are not required as the patches install 2 init.d scripts that amend kernel values on start up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anders Williams:
Since the device has had some issues over the years with I/O in general, I thought I would test with lowering the default read-ahead a little, it might be a false positive, but I feel better performance and more smoothness with a read-ahead of 256 KB, just a suggestion for people to try if they got poor I/O
[Asus Transformer TF700] gtsbrian:
patch

Stupid question, but do I just install by itself, or flash WITH the ROM?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
If you have 5.1.1 installed already just flash the patch.

If not, flash the rom then flash the patch.

I also get a nice boost with the patch

Antutu went from 22370 to 23866

I/O from 591 to 2566 :D

The latter seems a little strange but I got the screenshots to prove it [emoji14]

This is with _that kernel maxed at 1600, interactive and noop
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Hmm let me try this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Y'all suckered me into it... once again reformatting and putting 5.1.1 along with the new patch on. And yes, that seems to have done it. Way smoother (subjectively speaking) and objectively speaking (with _that kernel at 1800 and using performance and noop as my settings) I get as high as 2391 with Antutu. Before the patch, it was only mid 2200 at best. Just got it up and running really so will keep testing. But hey... sbdags and co.... you rock!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I can't reproduce this.

I tried 256KB, 2048KB, 6144KB and 4096KB.

4096KB was the sweet spot for my device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RADiuMOz:
Interesting that you use 1440x900. How do you find it?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anders Williams:
Yeah, had not tried that resolution so thought I might as when I flashed 5.1.1 ; so far it feels pretty good, obviously a smooth experience overall with the tablet now, but I can't tell much difference in the graphics myself, however I may not be the best judge on this having relatively poor eyesight ;)

Does anyone have experience with standard resolution on the latest patch? (aka 1920*1200)

---------- Post added at 07:12 ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 ----------

I guess device and configuration specifics can influence this quite a bit? or it may just be a case of placebo ofc :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] RADiuMOz:
I actually use the standard resolution and would want it most of the time - but keep meaning to try out the scripts _that posted for improving game performance (one part changes the resolution)
[Asus Transformer TF700] RADiuMOz:
Well, that was interesting: my I/O improved a LOT after changing to 256kB - Antutu attached. Running on

Performance

, noop, 1600MHz max (TricksterMod now seems to have lost the ability to change it...) Haven't had a chance to play round with it, yet, in every day usage, after changing to 256kB, though.

I changed it using TricksterMod: is that where you guys did it, too?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Anders Williams:
No though the advanced options in the performance field in settings, glad to hear you have a performance boost experience too :)

Sluggish I/O but otherwise great

HI all, installed the latest beta with the patch and the tablet is speedy, except when downloading and installing apps from the play store. Asus should be smacked for using such a cheap I/O chip.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jbb3393:
Tried three different configurations using _thats kernel but had to go with omni as it doesn't make me wait for a minute after pressing buttons
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tek_No:
Can this kernel be flashed outside the zombi-pop ROM? If so: dirty flash OK?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Which kernel? There are 4 included...

They all use the OMNI ramdisk so you would need to unblob, unpack, replace the ramdisk, repack and reblob for the rom you are using.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tek_No:
This was a reply to the post just above mine: so I was referring to the omni kernel.

So I guess I need to reflash the whole ROM? Dirty flash OK?

Has someone faced with black screen with shortcuts after changing wallpaper ? Animated wallpapers work fine ? When simple picture picked even default ones - black screen. Launchers tried Nova and Apex
[Asus Transformer TF700] Viking8:
I'm getting a totally different experience than alot of you guys with the new 5.1.1. With internal, f2fs, _that kernel at 1700mhz max, interactive/noop and a resolution of 1600 x 1000, this tablet has not run this fast and smooth.... EVER!

Ok, so the odd parts about this install are my antutu score of 18403 and a quadrant score of 7356. :( With those scores, I'm not getting any lag at all. Apps open fast and function normally. I have had two random reboots since installing it a few days ago, which is not to bad for this thing!

The biggest drawback though, has been the battery. It goes down quite a bit faster than B6. When I say fast, I mean lightning fast! I've been on battery for just under 3 hours and I'm down to 77%. I'll have to check apps that might be causing this but I don't think it is an app because when I'm not using it, the battery barely moves at all. I can walk away and hours later the battery may have gone down by 1 or 2%.

I guess I should try a full wipe/format and a completely fresh install to see if anything changes with the battery. Any ideas guys? :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] f_padia:
23% in 3 hours of use and you think that's lightening fast?? You have higher expectations than me!

What would you consider normal in use battery use?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Viking8:
Well, considering that is just web surfing and nothing else, it's not great! With B6 I was at 10% to 13% down over the same timeframe. And with Crombi-kk the battery would last forever, although, that ROM was nowhere near as fast as this one!

But like I said, when this thing sleeps, it uses almost no battery at all!
[Asus Transformer TF700] relaps:
I'll take that trade off if it runs play music without lagging and crashing. I think streaming apps are beginning to suffer from the older radios in these things. My galaxy s5 and Asus t100 do great over 5 Ghz in my place.

I think you're right. I use WiFi File Transfer to move files from my computer to both my tablet and my HTC One (M7) and the difference in transfer rates is night and day. The HTC moves files at more than 2-3 times the speed. The tablet also loses connection more often too. They both connect to an ASUS RT-N66U Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router so it's not an issue at that end.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
I dirty installed again with the same settings (_that, maxxed out at 1800 with all other speed settings to default faster positions).... EXCEPT I went for 213 dpi and 1600x1000. Now here's the odd thing... Antutu still reports 1900 screen res when it runs --- and its results are fairly shabby 2200 speed. Yet when I run the browser and so forth it seems quite a bit faster (as in lag free). How can I verify the tab is really running at 1600 rather than 1900? And thank you ahead of time... I'm not as concerned w/ Antutu scores as I am with getting this thing to stop gagging and lagging when all I'm doing is surfing the web (default browser by the way, not Chrome).
[Asus Transformer TF700] msuguy71:
Spoke to soon. More I use the tab, the slower it becomes. Using _that's kernal now, 1600 max, 1600x1080 screen, hoop (performance won't stick). Tried the omni kernal with the same results. Could just be that this tablet has outlived its glory days :\
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
No, I know the tablet is not built the way it should have been. But beta 6 of Zombi-pop 5.1 ran a bit better than this beta 1 of 5.1.1 does. I did a bit of tweaking tonight, including decreasing screen resolution to 1600x1000, and throttling down _that kernel's 1800 max to 1700. Still, when I run Antutu I got an all-time bad score 1700 something. Before gearing it down to 1700, I got a few System UI errors... it didn't crash immediately, but did after while. We'll see... but again I'm contemplating backing out of this version to the beta 6. One good thing I learned through this is that I do like running at 1600x1000... screen does seem snappier.

ADDED Later: Reverted to Zombipop 5.1 beta 6, _that kernel slowed just slightly to 1700, with noop. Got just shy of a 2300 Antutu score, but more importantly very snappy and smooth. Will have to mess w/ browser and so on tomorrow to see if it will be stable. If so, I might sit on this version for a while (barring some other manic breakthrough by our gurus). I did install at 1600x1000, looking for any memory savings / speed increase.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
All kernels.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You can't have 213 DPI and change the RES. As soon as you change the RES the scripts will default you back to the equivalent of 240dpi.

Here is a post I made earlier about how it works.
[Asus Transformer TF700] shonkin:
Gonna sound toopid here.... but to repeat what I think you've said in shorthand.... if I go for 1600x1000... I *will* get that even if I put in the wrong dpi setting? And it just auto-adjusts it to be an equivalent of what 240 would have been if I'd stuck w/ the 1900... izzat correct? Just want to make sure I didn't default back to 1900 instead of staying 1600.... I don't even care what the dpi is (unless a major speed increase is involved). I dunno what I was thinkin' even to mess with it. Just wanted that 1600....
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
There are 2 ways of changing the dpi on android. :)

1. Via the build.prop

2. Via using the wm command

The wm command always supercedes the build.prop value. So it doesn't matter what value you change it to in the build.prop if you have changed the RES in the installer then my script will run on every reboot and reset it to the equivalent of 240dpi for your RES (as above).

Antutu probably reads the actual panel size rather than the resolution you are setting.

To check what res you are running go to this location and read the text file there:

/data/local/tmp/init.d_res_test.txt

I write to that file when the res is changed by the wm command.
