I know Dagster but since you are almost involved in any Rom that is out there these days like it seems. I guessed i could just ask it right here. Could have also posted it in the KatKiss topic but since im still Dagster addicted ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Well battery life isn't something I have optimised with the tweaks injected into zombi, although if you use _that's kernel and drop the freq down to 1.4 or 1.5Ghz it'll last a lot longer than maxing it out at 1.8Ghz.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
I thought that disabling overclocking had solved my problem, but no...

I still continue to have freezes where the only solution is a forced reboot.

Is there anyway i can find out what's origining these freezes?...

I did allready about 10 clean installs (format all partitions, including system and data (complete format on data, then n2fs))

I didn't make n2fs to cache.

Any ideas on how i can find the issue? 99% of the times it happens when using the stock browser.

Thanks.

Check this out... dorimanx incorporated ram compression into his kernel and the results are nothing short of spectacular. Maybe our transormers can get some more ram! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=63383796

I don't think we're actively deving for the TF700 anymore unfortunately. It requires too much work to maintain for very little gain. The device is now over 3 years old and based on 4+ year technology. Sorry.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Yes, I think if omni is going to continue on the 700 if its worth the time....

Then maybe our time could be better spent just making a few flashable zips that will allow for various things ?

Just an idea, will have to see how much time we all have.... :D

Thx ZOMBI and Josh :good:

Could you please shed some light on where to look, please?
[Asus Transformer TF700] RD274:
Thanks so much. So much more happier with the tab now. http://imgur.com/saUTLmR

----

Thanks again for the gream rom [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION], its still a little sluggish but its atleast usable so I'm not considering moving data to sd or anything. Earlier I only put this on for movies and then off it went- I wouldn't even leave it on as the battery life would drain out in a day or sometimes overnight. Now I'm considering the keyboard dock so that I can do some light browsing, reading and movies on this. This will keep me going till I can save up enough for the Surface Book.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Falhawk:
I've got everything running...but it is really slow for me and I can't figure out why. I mean even opening up the program menu has a delay. I know the tablet is older but it doesn't seem normal that they just slow down doing routine tasks. Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
When you say NTFS you mean f2fs right?

Sorry without logs, it's difficult to guess why it is freezing. It could be an application causing it. It could be that you are on the wrong bootloader. Dodgy sdcard can cause issues. C/an you post a last_kmsg from /proc after a forced reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Wrong bootloader? Which kernel and tweaks have you installed? Microsd card fitted?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hannes_HD2:
Hi sbdags,

Thanks for all the work done so far! You have literally created a tablet of this heavy paperweight!

Just two questions then, as zombi is indeed running perfectly:

1. Do you plan on releasing updates to zombi? E.g. your base plus upstream omni 5.1 releases? I imagine that would cost not to much time but at least give the device some more updates, for example in terms of security fixes.

2. Is that a no to Zombi 6?

No matter the answers, your past work is outstanding and much appreciated. Oh, and the rest of the group behind zombi as well ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] hardslog:
Only time will tell ;)

Just throwing it out there, but the TF700 is still my primary 10" tablet :eek:
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
Yes, i do mean F2FS, sorry.

Here are the requested logs, if have the time, please.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Ok with a bit of Googling it seems to be a problem with heavy net load. Looks like it's in the kernel.

Which kernel are you using and have you tried all the others?

http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=78&t=5375
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Cool then development continues! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
I was using yours sbdags/that_ kernel (the recommended one). I will try with another, any recommendation?

Anyway, it seems to only happen during browsing, nothing heavy. I put HD clips all the time from youtube to my little girl and it never freezes then, onle when browsing. For example half of times it freezes when i have only one tab open and browsing xda.

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
I tested with omni/sbdags kernel, it's been working so far. I believe i could never use if for so long as now without it freezing!

Thanks for the tip!

Will keep you posted if it works in a couple of days.

Again thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] rjspring:
Mine too, especially with the dock. Just went on vacation and only took the tablet (left the laptop at home).
[Asus Transformer TF700] gc2712:
Have to say TF700 is my primary device too. So I have been very grateful for the development work here that's made it vaguely usable. Still love the quality of the screen and the keyboard for emailing. But still slow.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Viking8:
I only have a tf700

I as well as anyone that owns a tf700 and installed any of your ROMs are super grateful for everything you and the rest of the crew has done for us! Zombi especially has, dare I say, Transformed an expensive paper weight into a real tablet!

I only have a tf700, so you keeping us going with updated firmware is so awesome to to read!

Thanks mate!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
I believe the main reason why all of us continue to insist on this tablet is because we actually love it, no matter the performance issue it has. At least with me that's the case, lets see:

1. It was one of the most beautifull tablets ever done

2. it's the most premium tablet ever done (please do tell me if anyone found allready a tablet like this!!):

3. Made in aluminium

4. very good concept of extra battery and extra ports

5. very good screen,

...

The TF701 apparently alsoo has issues....

So, if anyone could point me some tablet exactly like this, i would buy it imediatly! The problem is, there simply is no other tanlet like this one and that is why me and others, i believe, continue to insist on it.

It's my thoughts at least...
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
This tablet looks like it maybe my replacement .....

https://pixel.google.com/
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
Again.... although the idea looks interesting, it's still not the same: Where is:

- Extra USB slot?

- SD Card reader?

- Extra battery?

I still think nothing was ever buit as the tf700 (except the 701)
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
The TF701 is superior to the 700 in almost every area. It's only weakness is the dock connector.

However, I agree the TF700 from a materials point of view is a top premium tablet. Just a bit long in the tooth now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tek_No:
Same over here... Still my main 10" Android device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gtsbrian:
Other than the two year old TF701, does anyone make a newer version with all of the bells and whistles of the TF700 and dock combined? I keep looking, but each comes up short. Mainly the extra battery and full sized SD card and USB port. Lots have keyboards, but that's all they do.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
It is exactly what i mean, all of them come short or here or there!

I have an xperia z2 tablet. It has a perfect firmware, it's outrageously fast, great image quality! has 1 battery, but who cares has it performs great (with help of a good software)... but:

- It's awsome to have an SD card reader to put there my camera SD card... The Z2 doesn't have one..

- On today's world nothing is of meaning unless it has a full size USB slot (mouse, mem stick, others....)

And it's on these fields that no other android tabet could ever surpass the TF700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] msssm:
Interesting discussion about the TF700T in general.

Same points I can say about our TF300T, it's still the main tablet for most tasks, still has a strong double battery and very useful keyboard with USB.

I can't say that about my TF700T as still after many different ROMs it is far slower than the TF300T, most times too slow (waiting for Google Drive showing files for more than 30s, switching apps takes sometimes longer than 40s...), but I'm quite sure this hardware does not only have a slow I/O module but some failure with its memory or whatever. Isn't there some Recovery or rom just doing some memtest and benchmark testing?

I completely belief your experience to be equal to our very good experience with the TF300T.

Myself thinking about giving up the TF700T I'm not sure to try some other of the same, but also looking for some recent replacement with equal features. So very interesting to follow your postings here.

As replacement, has anyone tried the HP Slatebook 14? Looks very similar to the TF700T, also Tegra 4 1,8GHz quad, 2GB Ram, but 14" screen 1920x1080. So as for the cpu it should not be a big step forward, only for the memory. It has 3xUSB3.0 :) but only Micro-SD. Should be released mid 2014. Any experience?
[Asus Transformer TF700] gtsbrian:
I've even looked at windows tablets!

[MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION]

Ok, after extensive testing, I can confirm that with kernel from grimlock/sbdags i don't have the freezing (net overload, as you posted).

Any chance you could update your kernel with this fix? The reason i ask this is your kernel is still faster (or feels that way) than this one, plus, it has overclocking, that i stopped using thinking it was that causing the freezes.

Thanks for your attention.

Ricardo.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
It's not my kernel, it's _that's. I want to replicate the issue as well as I use _that's kernel and don't see the issues. Talk me through the steps.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
There are no steps... I just browse the internet using the stock browser and after a few minutes the system freezes. I doesn't happen on any other application except for the stock browser. I use a lot youtube for HD videos, and it never happened there either.

The kernel i am using now that doesn't exhibit the problem is 3.1.10area51@omni-V1.1+lj50036

If you need me to I can test other kernels.

Thanks.

[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:

[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
OK Do it again but write down the steps you are taking to flash - including the options for kernel and ram2sd etc. Also which version of TWRP are you on and which bootloader.

It is likely you missed something.
[Asus Transformer TF700] phazer11:
I followed this guide to converting to f2fs

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

I'm using KANG TWRP 2.8.7.1

To flash I'm wiping then formatting the data and converting to f2fs and then tappping install and selecting the zip file. TWRP acts like it's installing the ROM then the screen flashes and the TWRP logo and then main TWRP menu comes up instead of the expected install screen like Crombi-KK had and the rom is not flashed (Oh yeah and that's if I disable zip verification because it fails that even despite the MD5's checking out).

The old version of CROMBI I have which was on here previously before I got the message that led me to wiping it (CROMBi-KK R1 KitKat 4.4.4r2) installs fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Then you have a bad download.

Turn on signature verification and I bet it will fail. It doesn't matter if the md5 checks if the verification fails then the zip is corrupt. Redownload it.

You should get aroma with a zombi-pop installer with options.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rprussell:
SO I've been kinda digging - where did you lay hands on this kernel? I'd like to try it and see if it helps me out with sleeps-of-death I get from time to time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ricardjs:
It's one of the kernels offered on the aroma installer. Choose it instead of the stock one.

I also had that "sleep of death" from time to time, if the following conditions happened:

- Wireless ON during standby (if i disconected this option, no more "sleep of death")

- stock browser on, when tablet went to sleep.

I believe what helped the most was disabling that first option.

Anyway, after changing to the Kernel i am using now, wife is happy, the tablet didn't freeze anymore for more than 1 week now. Before i couldn't go for more than a day.

Regards,

Ricardo.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Good news! ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jdor:
I have installed the internal version with all defaults.

When I try to connect the tab to my home PC (win 7 servicepack 1) it is not detected by the PC. all I get is a message "USB device not recognized".

Changing from MTP to PTP does not help.

USB debugging and USB debugging notify are checked (ON)

I assumed it is a driver problem but I was not able to install.

When I connect my samsung phone to the same port everything is OK.

In my Device Manager one item was added: "Unknown Device"

Any idea?
[Asus Transformer TF700] lj50036:
Sounds like a cable issue....

Have you tried different USB ports ?

Thx Josh
[Asus Transformer TF700] ParrotSquawk:
Thanks to the developer for keeping this device alive. I just installed this ROM and it takes a few minutes to boot and every app takes a minute to start and often FC. The battery seemsto drain very fast. Is there anything I can check to see if there is something wrong?

Thanks in advance
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Are you on the right bootloader? Which kernel did you choose? Did you format /data to f2fs in twrp first?
[Asus Transformer TF700] terribell:
Many thanks to all the developers for the awesome ROM, finally the TF700 works without any hiccups.

Since the development is finally stabilized, is it possible to share the kernels on individual zips?

This would allow a much easier swap without the problems that may come from dirty flash the entire ROM.

I was using that_ kernel but it was going through the battery very fast and also some videos were having problem keeping the correct speed, so I changed to OMNI but there were some problems with the Google Play services and Play Store.

With the individual kernells we could flash without these kid of problems.

Please consider it.

Thanks anyway.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xxhaimbondxx:

Hey guys! I've been using the tf700t for a couple of years now. My primary use for this tablet is playing hearthstone at the moment. Can somebody confirm, if upgrading from the stock rom to this rom, will increase the tablets performance in games? I'm getting pretty tired of this tablets sluggish performance, but if upgrading the ROM doesn't have any impact game performance, I don't want to spend my time on it. Thanks in advance!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hannes_HD2:

[Asus Transformer TF700] FuKe:
Haha yeah I am aware of that now :P

I've been inactive on XDA since I bricked my old Tf300, and bought a new TF700 :)

But how's this ROM when it comes to game performance? And is it stable enough for everyday use? :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Games so different in demands on GPU/CPU - you'll just have to try yours on a few different roms...

It is stable, yes.

Any rom is going to do better than stock with all that bloat installed and the preparations for any rom are all the same:

Update to the latest bootloader, unlock, flash TWRP.

From there on out it's just a question of doing the required wipes/format/file system conversions for your the rom you want to flash.

Do a minimal installation, install your game, shoot a nandroid and test the game.

Do the same with other roms then, restore the nandroid you liked best....
[Asus Transformer TF700] rjspring:
I'm using them as storage (not booting off of them). They have worked fine for a number of years, but within the last couple of months both suddenly stopped reading and show no data. The first one I tried re-formatting and it was not usable afterward (would not keep data after being ejected, would fail to read). The second one just this past week failed like the first. I haven't tried re-formatting it yet, but I'm thinking it will have the same symptoms as the first one.

Both are Samsung 3's, one is 16 GB and the other is 32.
[Asus Transformer TF700] biggyrat:
Hey guys. I''ve been reading the tf701 thread and I decided to compare the specs between this and that one. It looks like asus has given up on this tab completely. If you type tf in the support search box, a list of tf models pops up, excluding the tf700.

I don't know if is a option, but you may have to make available whatever unlock files and bootloader files needed for others to enjoy this great work of yours.

By the way I miss the anticipation of waiting for updates. Please let us know if you move on to a new project.

P.S. How does the 701 with your rom compare to what is on the market today? Thanks for everything.

[Asus Transformer TF700] matt11601:
Thanks for the help sdbags. I 'm trying to figure out a few issues I'm having.

1) I ran the command in terminal and got the following results: 12.

This command result is always 12 regardless if my USB external drive is plugged in or not. Just a reminder, the USB external HD is not mounted on first boot of RC1. If the tablet is put to sleep, then awaken, the HD is mounted. I posted these results here. I'm trying to make sure it's mounted at first boot.

2) WiFi performance is still slow. Any suggestions on what I can do? I've connected two different access points and the results are the same.

3) I'm still getting the garbled audio when streaming via bluetooth audio (previously described earlier in this post). It appears this issue is not unique to ZOMBi-POP because it's been described elsewhere (example here). Do you have any ideas on this? The problem persists regardless of ViperAudio or DSP. I've tried enabling and disabling Bluetooth HCPI in Developer Options.

Overall, I'm trying to solve these problems. If not, I'll probably go back to version 5.4. But I would love to stay on this because the performance is great.

Thanks again.
