Noone can help me understand ?

Something I should have given and that I missed ?

---------- Post added at 01:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:19 AM ----------

OK I found out for the weird zoom in "Simpson Tapped Out"

This is due to high resolution : 1920*1200. The game does not have sufficient high res graphics to allow zoom out.

But if I lower down resolution to 1440*900 for instance, the game downloads new res graphics and zoom out is possible.

So I think that when you choose optimizations in Crombi-kk, a lower resolution tha native i set because I can't remember I chose a specific resolution in the aroma install

Can you update first page with possible resolutions ?

As for performance I fully reinstalled with rom2sd/Data2sd and all optimizations that come with _that Kernel

It's a bit smoother, quite less laggy but Quadrant score is only 6700 and this clearly due to low perfs on i/o

/data is still in ext4 cause I didn't flash the modded TWRP. But not sure it would do a huge difference.

My sd card is a 32Go Samsung eco U1 Class 10

I remarked that Google launcher is quite laggy while Apex is fine..

Except all of this, all is running fine right now

Very well said suzukii. I've just about reached the same conclusion. I used to love this tablet. But it became useless with the stock OS. So I managed (after a rather long effort) to successfully install zombi-pop. unfortunately the performance is absolutely dismal. It takes forever to boot. Once the home screen with icons appears sometimes it takes 10-15 MINUTES until I can actually do anything at all with it. It frequently just freezes up and does nothing at all. Sometimes it reboots itself right in the middle of whatever I've doing. I've gotten to the point where I consider it a success if I can copy photos from my camera to the tablet and look at them with the photo viewer. That's it. Nothing else. I don't even bother trying to surf the web or read email. It just takes too long. Sadly, I'm at the point where I have to decide whether to get something new.

If anyone has suggestions for what to do with the performance I'm open to them.

I did find the setting in the play store to turn off the auto-update of apps since it appeared that each time I turned on the tablet, it would waste time downloading things. But is still barely usable.

Hi,

Can you tell us what options you chosed at install to get this 10k+ score on i/o in quadrant benchmark ?

I can't succeed getting that speed whether I install on internal or SD card.

i/o socre is always around 2k, not more.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
F2FS and fsync off are critical to getting good IO scores.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
F2FS will make a difference over ext4. I can get 8000+ quadrants easily with the CPU locked at 1.6GHz.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pomination:
OK thanks.

I will then try F2FS. Just need to update my TWRP.

Because i'm on rom2sd/data2sd I did not choose fsync off.

So this would mean the best choice is to stay on internal ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Yes, internal, data f2fs, fsync off
[Asus Transformer TF700] lmmohr4:
That's true, and you've done a good job on it, but it still doesn't tell you under what circumstances you should use a particular log or why.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Pomination:
OK then,

I installed again and chose rom2sd/Data2sd with F2FS for Data and Fsync off (I know, not good, just for test purpose)

Well Quandrant says 9K+ for i/o but not as much as your screenshot.

By the way i've been facing a strange problem. I had to update my TWRP with Kang one.

There were no way to boot on bootloader, black screen every time.

I finally updated through adb but I wonder if there is a way to reccover bootloader ?

Forget about that. I was confusing between APX and Bootloader. Linux requires to send commands with 'su'....

Have been running B4 and has been great !!!! Thanks. Installed RC1 yesterday and for whatever reason, Google play services and play store not installed. Restore

back to B4 and tried again, same results. I installed play services and play store from apk and is running fine. Any ideas ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yep you need a wipe.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Could be your SD card. My internal gives better io results than my sdcard with fsync off.

Wipe worked, Thanks !!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
I'm on windows 10 now, so I don't know if that's the problem... I can't get the tablet into fastboot, or, I can't seem to get the USB connection to work. I run "adb reboot bootloader". The tablet nicely reboots into the menu with RCK/Android/Wipe Data(is that correct?), but "fastboot devices" is blank and windows says device not recognized.

All I'm really trying to do is get twrp 2.8 as my recovery. I already have 2.7. Do I definitely have to get to 2.8 to flash the latest ROM?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pomination:
Hi,

You can try a workaround. If adb is working fine, then you can update recovery through adb.

Here is how to do it :

- First rename twrp filename from xxx.img to xxx.blob

- Start adb and send your blob file in /sdcard for instance : "adb pull xxx.blob /sdcard"

- Then switch on shell with "adb shell"

- get root rights by typing "su"

- update your recovery with "dd if=/sdcard/xxx.blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4" (WARNING : Do NOT make typos there !!!). Wait for file copy

- At that point you can exit and switch off your tablet normally or type "adb reboot"

If succesfully updated my recovery this way.

That was weird. after a successful write with dd, I still rebooted to old TWRP 2.7.2. Then after rebooting to OS, then back to recovery again, did the new TWRP show up. Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
Is it placebo effect? I don't think so. I just dirty flashed from zombi 5 to 5.1 (Data2SD, all default optimizations). This tablet has never been able to do what it's doing now. Loading Chrome and just getting the keyboard to open is completely tolerable under this ROM. Chrome opens in under 2 seconds and the keyboard pops up in about a half second. It was so slow before, maybe 15 seconds to get all that done? Another test is ES file explorer. 8 seconds to open and show folders. Maybe 6 seconds if I kill the app and restart it. It's about 1.5 seconds on my Galaxy Tab S. The recent apps is nearly instant. Comparable to my Tab S. In fact, I think it might be even faster as this is 5.1, and the Tab S only runs 5.0.2.

Incredible work guys. Really amazing.

[Asus Transformer TF700] sharkcow:
Hi all,

first of all my greatest thanks to everyone involved making this great ROM. I've been with you guys since crombi 4.4.3, mostly just enjoying how things got better with every release ;) You guys are truly amazing!

edit: I lied in the following section. It doesn't work with any of my android devices. So it's not a zombi problem. If anyone has any hints for me I'd of course still be very thankful. Otherwise just the first paragraph counts: you guys are awesome!

Now I have a small question you might be able to help me with: I'm using my tf700 in a network with a fritz box as a router. However, since some time (probably since the first lollipop version but I haven't checked) the tablet doesn't seem to submit a hostname to the router. Thus, I can only access it via the IP, which obviously is a nuisance. getprop net.hostname shows the typical android-.... string, but the router just shows a blank line with the mac address. Needless to say the router works with hostnames on other android devices (though not lollipop). I'm on RC1 with that's v12-kernel if that is of significance.

Any ideas?

many thanks in advance, sharkcow
[Asus Transformer TF700] LDBAKE:
Does anyone know if it is even possible to use the Browser include in Zombi-Pop on another device, other than a TF700? I really like this browser, and I have tried several "Share" apps from the Play Store to backup and then "share" it with my Samsung Galaxy S5 phone, but when I attempt to install it on the phone it tells me there is a "parsing error". I do appologize if this isn't the correct place to post this, and if the Mods feel it isn't, please tell me and I will delete it and post in the appropriate Forum. Thanks.

Yes, pull the apk out of the zombi rom zip and push it to the device ....

Then just install the app, make sure you have 'unknown sources' checked in settings .....

...and don't forget to add potentially required native libraries to the apk.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmgnet:
Wow, my tablet is completely usable while updating over a dozen apps from market. Was 5.1 really that big of a performance update or did I finally get some other option correct? I've been on data2sd/f2fs/no fsynch since it was possible. I'd hate for it to ever go back to being unusably sluggish. This tablet had never been this usable, even stock.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LDBAKE:
Dang.....my "adb" keeps saying "adb server is out of date.....killing"........can I just use Copy and Paste to move the .apk from my PC to my phone? and if I can, where would I find the "potentially required native libraries"? Sorry, but I'm a 73 year old sorta noob, and not a software/programing expert, so any "hand holding" guidance is greatly appreciated. Maybe I'm getting in over my head!! (Wouldn't be the first time ;) )
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Try adb kill-server and then running it again, that usually works.

The native libraries are in /system/lib. However it's not exactly trivial to find out which ones are required by the browser. Read http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52343237&postcount=12 to find out more.

[Asus Transformer TF700] ikkeT:
Happens to me all the time. Also to other apps as well. It just means the system is lagging, waiting something and blocking the app. You can get it to happen less by doing a wipe, and installing minimal amount of apps. And by not using apps like facebook, linkedin etc, but use the services via browser instead. This way you reduce the background running apps, and the need to release their memory.

Hi Team,

Appologises for EN but is is not my native language but in some tech parts it iss essential; to be 100% sure that advises are correctly understandable. I have followed some how to chats. In general I have uploaded for my doughter tablet :

tablet has never been toutched by any of out of ASUS upgradaes

Then when using latest ROM file tablet is still showing Zombi, pop screen.

Stuck on screen animation looping

I got everything to install without a problem untill after the Zombi Pop install it had me restart from the TWRP screen and then it went to boot into the Zombi pop rom and now all I see is a black screen with white lines moving up and down and it has been this way for over an hour. Is this normal or is there a fix to get this to work?

Bootloader version, recovery version, what version of zombi pop ??

Did you do a full wipe before installing ?

Using TWRP should I do and advanced wipe or format data?
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:

It can take up to 90 minutes, as it does a 'secure erase'

Depending what the rom version is you're coming from would play into this ....

Not sure if this is old news, but I found it very effective to keep the launcher app in memory, the home button was sometimes really slow. Added this to build.prop:

What a great day!!!

I have been an owner of a TF700t for over 2 years. I have put up with the original stock rom and then loaded CROMBI-k about a year ago. It was ok but still lagged alot. I purchased fstrim to have it run every night which helped but I still found myself running fstrim if I used the tablet for more than hour.

I have been watching this thread waiting for a RC to post. I loaded the ROM yesterday and all I can say is "WOW". My tablet has never run so fast. It may have out of the box when I bought it but I can not remember. Thanks to all the developers for your efforts!!! I could not wait to get home and use my tablet and look forward to using it.

[Asus Transformer TF700] WatchTographer:
Hey all! Me again!

So two questions:

I have a few issues on my T700 running TF700T_ZOMBIE-POP-OMNI-DEODEX Beta2 test-keys 1600x1000 | Kernel Version 3.1.10-that11+.

1) My Blutooth headset has the fast/skipping issue and it is REALLY annoying. I have connected it to a Bose sound dock ... thing ... and it plays just fine. But with my QY7's it is stutter, skip, fast playback city.

Is there an easy fix for this?

2) Using the device with WiFi turned off is just great. It seems smooth and fairly fast. As soon as I tin WiFi on and it connects, my system speed drops to about 15% of normal. This makes it basically worthless.

Any suggestions?

3) Will updating to a new version fix these two issues? Is THAT difficult to do?

Thank much!
[Asus Transformer TF700] fonetval:
Hi

Just some Info about skipping/fast sound from my experience :

- it's the same with the RC1 release

- it's not due to ViperFX (i still have it without having choosing tout install it during Aroma installation)

- everything goes right just after reboot.... And after "some time" goes wrong again

I know it's not a solution but it's where i am for now ?

Any workaround would be appréciate....
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] fonetval:
Of course Sir ! Here it is the logcat when "all goes right" and no skipping sound problem on my BT speaker (Jabra Solemate)

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Yes the patch is still needed and remember RC1 needs a clean install. I'll be working on the next release this week. Hopefully. RC2 should install over the top of RC1 - I'm trying to avoid clean wipes from now on.

2) Sounds like might have app store auto updates on. Turn it off - otherwise it swamps the device and slows it down when first booting.

3) You will need to wipe first and don't forget the patch.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Well it seems the application wps.moffice has died isn't compatible for some reason. It is really struggling to open and then is closing due to numerous crashes. Your wifi seems to be scanning a lot too and I also noticed that the playstore thinks it needs to update itself too in the background.

This is after a full wipe?

What is the actual application you are tying to open? And it worked on beta 2?

Also detail which kernel, dpi, res, force GPU on/off you are using please - you may be using some odd combination.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kraka:
If I may chime in, I have the same problem, both with WPS Office and Polaris when creating new spreadsheet or new document. In the case of Polaris, selecting templates containing graphics.. I went back to B2 and it is the same problem. In both cases I wiped, formatted and converted to f2fs first; Using that's kernel with install set to sbdags default options only; 1920x1200, 240dpi; Tried with GPU on and off; animations disabled; Tried both at 1400MHz and 1800MHz; Interactive and Noop; Play store auto update disabled; RC1 speed patched; No FB, Skype or Messenger installed except Chrome; Nova launcher.

Hope it helps and thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mordred69:
sbdags,

I have dome multiple full wipes, including data formatting (takes more than 5 minutes). I've also tried different combinations of the following options:

_that Kernel (selected by default)

Grimlock Kernel

STOCK DPI

STOCK resolution

F2FS

Internal Installation

ALL GAPPS installed except live wallpaper

Zip Align

Nova Launcher

Omni Launcher

Google Launcher

GPU options (tried On and Off)

Different Governors and Schedulers

Patched extra Beta4 / RC1 file (tried with and without installing it)

Funny thing is, Beta 3 worked fine with WPS Office and Polaris, as I use my tablet for lyric displays with my band. This happened also constantly on ALL betas with Google Apps Write and Spreadsheets, and with Word, which is why I decided to go with WPS and Polaris, thinking that the apps may be the ones to blame.

Can't remember if I tried those two apps with Beta 4, and to be honest, I haven't tried going back to them to see if they work, but I could do that tonight and see where it lands.

What I've had with Beta 3 and 4 are random reboots after screen freezes WHITE. Think I reported in previously, not sure.
[Asus Transformer TF700] WatchTographer:
Thank for the reply.

• I have auto-update turned off on all my devices, so it can't be that.

• I am hesitant to do another full wipe and install as last time, it took the help of one of our great members to get me through it.

• As for the path: can that be applied to what I have or is that AFTER the reinstall?

Also, since it was not addressed directly: does the patch deal with the stuttering audio and video or is there a separate fix for that?

Thanks much!
