[Asus Transformer TF700] PapaKlix:
just tried flashing this on my TF700T and it won't boot past the boot animation (i waited overnight). for background, i had to update my bootloader to 10.6.1.14.4 (i was on 10.4.x), flashed TWRP 2.8, flashed the ROM and went through all the options, looked fine but it just won't boot. i reflashed again and have been at the boot animation for about 45 min.

i looked through this thread for someone having a similar issue and was unsuccessful but many apologies if there is an answer somewhere in the 220 pages :)

thanks, looking forward to using this rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Frobbit:
I'm no expert, by I am pretty sure it is you bootloader. You need to be on: 10.6.1.14.10. I upgraded mine with this zip file from sdbags:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490004179

I have no problem since then.
[Asus Transformer TF700] PapaKlix:
Hi - thanks so much for the prompt response. i made a pretty important typo when transposing from my tablet, i'm on 10.6.1.14.10
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Do a full format, it can take 90 mins ...

Do not interrupt this process ....

Then flash the rom .....

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
The permissions on /sdcard are emulated by the sdcard daemon, and inside /sdcard/Android they are per app (apparently enabled by the "-l" command line parameter to the sdcard daemon). The mapping from package name to app ID (=user ID) is read from packages.list, so it should always match the IDs in /data/app and /data/data. But it's also possible that SELinux plays some role here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] PapaKlix:
this fixed it, thanks!

severe lag

Anyone else having severe lag issues ? My tablet is all but unusable. I don't understand why my results are so different than others. I am using that's kernel and f2fs on data. I also selected the middle screen res (x1080). Anyone have any idea what is going on?

[MENTION=507649]devs[/MENTION] ... a kind of an out of the blue question, but ... on the Sprint Galaxy Note 4 ROM forums there are a bunch of posts that involve arcane magic like running in circles on the front lawn and squawking like a chicken or dewy newts (Rob Pitre and FZ references //smile) to get Netflix and Hulu to work. There is an idea that they both have to be spoofed into thinking the device is not rooted. Did you have to perform some type of digital magic for us?

Thx!
[Asus Transformer TF700] relaps:
Ethernet is running fantastically on this ROM (5.1.1) also. Using "wifi speed test" I got Ethernet speeds of 92Mbits down and 80Mbits up. I will try it again when I have access to a gigabit switch.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Nope no really magic, there were a few things that had to happen...

There were some 'ifdef's' in av and native that had to happen to get the device to boot and sound to work ....

But then everything just fell into place ......

Thanks for your Job

This Rom works like a charm on my TF700 ! My first install didn't work with _that Kernel and I've tried Omni's and it solved my problem.

For the first time, I can use my tablet.

When the keybord issue will be solved, it should be perfect.

Does someone use Dice Player to read videos ? It doesn't work.

bought ebay tf700 with early. zombi beta. how to upgrade?

I bought a tf700 with early zombi beta. Performance is extremely slow with frequent system/app crashes. Shall I upgrade to current beta and hope for improvement? I'm going to need some hand holding To Get this working. Should I dirty upgrade or format? Is there a step by step or video tutorial because page one directions assume I have more knowledge than I do. there seems to be 3 methods to upgrade. How do I discover which method to use. How do I check boot loader and twrp versions? I need to upgrade these first right? Here's a picture from my about tablet screen.

Sounds as if you need a full clean install.

Read this to learn the basics: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2688891

Post 3 tells you how to determine and update your bootloader.

Also make sure you have a current recovery installed: TWRP 2.8.+

Once bootloader and recovery are current, format data in TWRP, then convert /data to f2fs and reflash the rom.

This is explained here: http://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf700/general/guide-convert-data-to-f2fs-twrp-2-8-t3073471

widgets menu

Hi all.

I upgraded to 5.1.1 beta 1 yesterday, and like others I am very pleased with the new life this ROM has given to my aging tablet. Many thanks to all the devs!

I have found one problem though and am surprised no one else has reported it -- I no longer have a Widgets menu and the widgets I was using before (clock, calendar, Google Keep, etc.) are not displaying. Anyone else seeing this? Any suggestions for getting them back?

OpenVPN problem is back on 5.1.1 Beta 1

A while ago we have discussed OpenVPN not working because of DNS resolution and routing problems.

I have gone through almost every update of this ROM. OpenVPN didn't work for me on any Lollipop version up to Beta 5. After this, I swear that when we had the ZOMBi-POP 5.1 Beta 6, the OpenVPN was working for me, and I was happy to be able to use my company network. Now, being on the ZOMBi-POP 5.1.1 Beta 1 it stopped working again.

Probably needless to state, but I am/was using the very same OpenVPN settings all the time. If it helps I could go back to the 5.1 Beta 6 to check or grab log files or whatever you wanted me to do. Is there any hint what might have stopped it (again) from working?

issues with video

First of all big thanks for all the work to get this tablet faster and more stable. I'm new to custom Roms, but managed to install twrp and am now running zombie pop 5.1.1 omni beta 1. First couple of days it restarted a few times and would go to the bouncing balls screen, then install updates.

It seems more stable now, but video from YouTube is way off. It sputters and seems to skip. Now the bigger deal is the same thing happens with the PBS Kids app. My 2.5 year old uses this tablet a lot and loves the pbs video's. Any help or advise you can offer would be a great help. Videos that I played from the internal memory ran fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
That sounds as if you did not install clean enough.

Did you do a factory wipe in TWRP prior to intalling the rom?

If yes, you'll have to do a format of data (which can take 60-90 minutes, do not interrupt it!!)

Reinstall the rom after dong either of those.

If you came from anything other than a recent version of this rom go for the format, reinstall your apps from Play, restore from backups only what you absolutely must.

Hi everybody

I have just got my tf700 yesterday, and have been flashing a few roms to see which is the best, I currently have katkiss 23 on it but have got "miscellaneous" battery usage sitting at 43% does anybody have any ideas on how to combat this?, any help would be very much appreciated I am using sdbags tf700 kernel and only getting about 4 hours battery time at best.

[Asus Transformer TF700] wldtravel26:
I did the factory wipe in TWRP prior to the install, so will try the format of Data.

When I do the reinstall I know I read something about the GAAPS and F2FS, what selections should I use when I do the install to get the smoothest interface. We only really surf the web on the tablet and my son plays his toddler games, so nothing really intensive. I saved everything pics, video's etc to an external SD card, so I'm fine wiping the data on the tablet but once I add put in the SD card, does that affect the F2FS part of it? Planning on getting it done tonight and hopefully have a new and improved tablet soon. :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] matt_simpson:
hi to install this rom do you have to change to f2fs file system

and does this wipe your internal data (back ups and downloads)

thanks

matt
[Asus Transformer TF700] Xeyrruken:
No mat you dont have to change system, the only thing you have to change is data to f2fs and its not required, but changing to f2fs improve performance greatly and of course it will delete app etc., unless u have a backup. For backup you could use Titanium Backup.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RonnyMegane:
I am using ROM2SROM2SD but with ext4. How can I change this to f2fs?
[Asus Transformer TF700] matt_simpson:
thanks for that will it erase my backups from my tablet

matt
[Asus Transformer TF700] Xeyrruken:
I recommend you to save the backup at the sd card in an accesible folder, so when you erase tablet data you could then backup safely. Also its recommended too to made a rom backup before installing any other rom, in case of failure, but in my experience this rom has never failed me in any way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] matt_simpson:

Thank you. But I can not use ROM2SD with f2fs, right?

Of course you can - just format the /data partition on your ext card to F2FS.

2 ways to do it - use lj50036's kanged TWRP or use the ROM2SD1.zip first before the format.

Not Loading OS after Wipe

So I did a format data using TWRP (On v2.8.5.0) and also did an advance wipe, trying to format in F2FS, but I got an error message on that.

I then trying to install the ROM from the SD card, it went through the process and said it installed correctly, but when it went through the reboot process, it just gets stuck with the screen black and the bouncing balls screen. I've done this twice now and not sure what the issue is.

Can someone other some advice on exactly the best way to do the wipe/format and then reinstall the new ROM?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Xeyrruken:
Try doing the steps again, and if the problem persist download the ROM again in case it has download with an error.

I had a bad download from one of the mirrors but a successful install off the ROM I got direct.

Try to update TWRP to 2.8.6+ first. I vaguely recall I read in earlier posts that v2.8.5.0 has bugs in F2FS format.

I tried to use the bootloader to update TWRP, it said finished on the command prompt but it didn't work.

I've tried the wipe/format of data and reloading the OS but can't get it to work. It goes through the steps of install on choosing the options etc, but once it goes to re-boot, it just goes to the black window with the balls moving around.

Any advice on getting any OS on this tablet? Right now its totally wiped with no OS and I've only got TWRP on it.

Download lj's Kang TWRP 2.8.6.x. Thread is here in Development. He has it as a flashable zip. Flash that in recovery, reboot.

Then format data in TWRP, let it finish and then convert data to f2fs.

[Asus Transformer TF700] wldtravel26:
Got TWRP to install and am formatting Data right now. When I convert data to F2FS, do I just choose all the drives/partitions (except SD card of course)

[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
No you said it yourself you are formatting /data only ..... :D

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] wldtravel26:
Where did you get the ROM directly. I only see the mirror on the first page of this thread. I've tried downloading twice and am getting the same results it seems.

I re-read the original thread and saw it was DATA only, so I converted that and it went through. I flashed the ROM and it said it installed correctly, but I'm back at the same spot I was on before where on the re-boot is the black screen with the colored balls. I haven't touched it but its been about an hour now. I know someone said some of the processes take 60-90 min, but not sure whether they were speaking of formatting or the reboot after the install. The first page says the reboot should take about 10 min or so.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Somewhere you're doing something not quite right it seems...

Unless you are on a old bootloader. Do you have the 10.6.1.14.10?

On the last page of the Aroma installer it gives you the option to save the installation log. Do it and save the log.

We may have to ask [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION] where it gets written to though, so that you can adb pull it if Android doesn't boot....

Then do the same for the recovery log under Advanced. Does anybody remember off hand where it is or do I have to dig for it?? :D

Besides that looks like everything is installing correct. I also tried formatting data. Then installing Omni Rom. It got to the same point of installing but once it reboots it gets stuck. I have some other files ok my SD card. Should I format the SD card then only add the zipped files? If so what format for the sd should I used?
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You left out the most important part of your bootloader - what comes after the 14?

I suspect it's .4 and that's why it doesn't boot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wldtravel26:

It's installed as a system app. Either reinstall the rom and don't choose Nova but another launcher (it won't fix the bug - there is a trick to setting wallpaper that I can't remember right now) or use an app like titanium backup to remove the system app (make sure you have another launcher installer or there will be tears though)

Last chance saloon

After trying pretty much every kang build for the TF700, I had just about given up. Even running the latest Zombi with F2FS on internal, the lags seemed to always come back. Then, as a result of increasing disquiet about its invasiveness, I uninstalled the Facebook app. I can only say that it was transformative! My forsaken TF700 is stable, responsive and seemingly lag-free.

Current config is F2FS on internal, _that kernel, OC 1800, interactive and noop.
