I have done this and install the ROM as well as gapps. However now im stuck in a loop where the phone restarts, goes into twrp, does what you see in the picture, restarts...

I wanted to give this to my gf for her bday (she has never had a tablet) and i thought it would be nice if I gave her a newer version of Android (apple girl, wanna convert her) instead of JB. Can anyone help me get this working right?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Glomgold:
I'm new to all this, just to be sure, I can choose Gapps mini instead of pico?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] MiniBlu:
No, pico or nano. Mini is to big and won't fit.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] compact_wisdom:
No, it is to large and might not fit into the system partition. You have to install what ever is missing from play store.

I'm very sorry, but this cable doesn't work. It's figured out by [MENTION=8450078]Glomgold[/MENTION] that the original Asus cable only works fine. So keep the hands off.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Dakatar:
Oh, I only recently ordered this cable. So, where i can buy original?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Glomgold:
I haven't tried but an unoriginal USB 2.0 cable I would guess will work too. Look for it to be black inside the USB port not blue.

The only time I got the tablet recognized in fastboot with USB 3.0 was with Linux FWUL ( https://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/live-iso-adb-fastboot-driver-issues-t3526755 ) but it failed during "sending file", I got two different error messages from different ports. Mine tablet is TF300TG.

[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Glomgold:
Finally, it works!

Is there anything you must never ever do compared to regular Android that can brick the tablet? The only thing I found is to never use factory reset from settings inside Android or the "wipe" option in fastboot-mode. Only do it from Kang.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Dakatar:
Omg... So, how i understand, cable works? :confused:
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Glomgold:
Yes, with the original cable the tablet got detected in fastboot-mode with no problems. After the flashing on the startup page where you choose language I got two error pop ups which prevented me fro doing anything, "google calendar" and "google service framework" has stopped, when I hit "close app" they just popped up again.

I did a factory reset from Kang cleared dalvik and cache and flashed again, but this time with Gapps nano instead of pico, I don't know if that was the thing that solved the problem but everything worked. So far I'm really happy with the increased speed.

I didn't find my wifi at first because of a too high channel, had to change "wifi regulatory doman" to "EMEA and rest of world".
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shiboby:
Hey guys any help would be really appreciated. My girlfriends birthday is on Wednesday and I would really like to give her this tablet in working order. Is there a way to blow away everything and start fresh from scratch with recovery?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Glomgold:
I don't dare to say anything since I'm totally new at this, I only know what worked for me, I had to reflash, maybe that could work for you too? I had a different problem as mentioned above.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] AndyTommo:
If you can get Fastboot working you could try this. I had a similar issue and recovered it by following the steps here https://xdaforums.com/transformer-prime/development/rom-katkiss-nougat-t3459313/page17

Honestly if I were you I would reflash to stock Asus and then install a custom ROM. This way is almost foolproof and I have used it many times myself over the years.

when the tablet is booted into twrp and connected to the computer, adb sees it. However, when I reboot into bootloader and then select the usb logo (thats fastboot, right?) the tablet seems to freeze and the computer doesn't see the tablet.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Nope, never do that!

The only way to get a clean system is Format /Data through Kang TWRP as advised here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73276324&postcount=1098

how can I factory reset if I can get into the rom? Also, I can't see to get to the tablet via fastboot. I can see it with adb when I am in recovery

wow, thats a lot of posts...Hopefully, I'll get through them all today. Otherwise my gf's bday present will just be the uninspired flowers and dinner.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Nope!

You are in Fastboot when you reboot into bootloader (Vol down and Power on) and in the left upper corner appears "starting Fastboot USB download protocol" .

In the mid of the screen there are three icons RCK, android, Wipe Data. Never hit one of them, especially Wipe Data. Your device will be bricked
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] walttheboss:
https://twrp.me/devices/asusTF300T.html

Ebonit is right. Be very careful never to wipe data.

Could be you don't have the right drivers. TWRP may use a newer adb version.

May be worth reading below.

http://www.androidauthority.com/transformer-pad-tf300t-install-twrp-recovery-97757/
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shiboby:
When I am in bootloader I see four icons. And if I dont select anything, after 10 seconds it says it is booting into Linux. I have to hit RCK to get to TWRP, which allows me to see device in adb.

I'll read this now on the train ride home. Once I get there, it is working on this until it is functioning or until I can't keep my eyes open. Hopefully it is the former...
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Oh my god, when you see four icons you have the wrong bootloader. First of all you need to upgrade your devise with the latest Asus firmware: V10.6.1.27.5 (Jelly Bean). That means the Android 4.2. update 2013/09/27. Then you are on the latest stock rom and the bootloader version is www-epad - 10.6.1.27.5. ...

Download the firmware from the Asus site https://www.asus.com/de/supportonly/ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T/HelpDesk_Download/ . Pay attention for the right version. Mostly fits the WW version.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shiboby:
I know I really f-ed up here cuz I rushed and you should never rush with flashing. I have the stock firmware downloaded but can't figure out how to flash it. I've tried this: https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf300t/help/guide-t2854495

After the command: adb shell insmod /bootit.ko

I go back into the bootloader and can't do anything with fastboot.

Any idea how to proceed?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] shiboby:
so I found an old back up of the tablet, restored that. allowed me to boot back into android. I then went through the first six steps of this: https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf300t/general/guide-asus-transformer-pad-tf300t-stock-t3554744

I will do the last few once she has logged in and set it up.

Im using the twrp from the link I posted. Its newer than the kang version. Is there some reason I should flash kang?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] walttheboss:
YES. There are differences. The Kang version does all that we need for KatKiss. Many people in this forum and the previous two have had issues because they didn't use Kang. If you don't use Kang you may not get much support in this thread because its in the OP instructions.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Yes, as long as Kang TWRP is strictly recommended by Timduru in the install instruction in #post1 you should follow the advise.

Doesn't appear that twitch stream will play at all anymore, regardless of app or settings
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] t3chwizard:
You can thank Nvidia and Asus for that due to them ceasing development of GPU blobs for our device. Even if it did work, it would probably be very intensive on the CPU and barely function.

---------- Post added at 07:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

Interesting, I flashed using the regular TWRP I am pretty sure (although this was a few months ago), so I will switch it to Kang when I get a chance. I gave the device to a friend so they can use it at work as I barely used it anymore. So when I update it next for them I will switch it.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] batwingnz:
Thanks for the explanation. That's a shame, media was the only thing I could think to continue to use the big screen for.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Beonico:
In the control options for developers you can limit the number of backgroundprocesses, f.e. 4, which will improve the responsiveness of the tablet drastically.

However after a reboot this setting is lost and back to unlimited.

Is it possible to save this parameter permanently ?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] pe1dnn:
Well, nobody says a regular TWRP will never work. The problem with TWRP is that it varies from version to version. It is a gamble, if you are lucky then it works and there is no issue, but when you are unlucky it will not work. And those unlucky will then write their problem in this topic, there have been a lot of those problems here. To avoid this just use the one specific TWRP version that is known to work in all cases, which is the recommended TWRP Kang build.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] t3chwizard:
I mean if you were doing basic streaming like Netflix that probably works, but I assume twitch is more intensive, at least I think. I played videos mostly without issue on it, although there was lag when I set it to hardware decoding.

When dirty flashing, do I need to flash the same Gapps used on the previous install to have the tablet just work as before, or can I/should I download and flash the latest Gapps package - or does this break things?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] residentorca:
It shouldn't hurt to flash a newer version of Gapps.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] MiniBlu:
It often does cause problems updating gapps, with old gapps data and updates left on there and you end up needing to format data again for best performance. Safest to either stick with same gapps version or format data and do a clean install.

Hi all,

First of all I would like to say a big thank you to timduru for bringing tf300t back to life.

I have always admired your skills and work you have done.

My question is regarding to the actual performance. I have performed a clean install of the latest version #25 however the speed and snappiness I'm seeing are nowhere near what you get on the YT video you posted here.

I'm far from complaining and only want to get to the bottom of this as I believe other people experiencing the same would benefit from it. So what could be the potential reasons ?

I have clean flashed it and followed your instructions . I even repeated the full wipe/data format twice.

I would appreciate your help on this. If there's anyone else out here who experienced the slow performance and managed to fix it please share your solution with us.

Many thanks
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Beonico:
After the first install, android will optimize the installed applications in the background. Depending on the number of installed apps this might take a few hours. So be patient.

Secondly; enable the developer options, go to the bottom where you see the item "Backgound processes". Default this is set to 'standardlimit'. Set it to max 4 background processes. The tablet will run as lightning.

This setting is reset after boot, so you have to set it manually after each reboot.

Also install the 'Greenify' app.

All this will do the trick.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
First of all I would like to mention that there is no performance problem with this version like all other versions before! :cowboy:

Please note, clean install means "Format Data" through Kang TWRP as recommended in the first line of the install instruction. Format data is different to wipe and takes up to one hour. After that change file system to F2FS through TWRP for Data only. No System, no Cache!!! Then your device will be clean for flashing Rom, Gapps pico and SuperSU in one run. Follow the instruction step by step carefully!

After reboot please go to Settings --> Performance:

Set clock values on boot

Set Governor on interaktiv

Minimum frequency

Current value: 204 MHz

Maximum frequency

Current value: 1500 MHz

Boot value: 1500 MHz

I/O scheduler current value: cfq

Set value on boot

Webgl?

Hello,

I apologize if this has been covered before but I couldn't find anything using the thread search.

I just installed the latest version from post #1 only I'm getting a chrome WebGL error when accessing webgl sites. This only happens on my tf300 and not on my other devices or on my Linux desktop. I've not tried any other ROMs on this tablet nor have I tried accessing it on KISS 6.x which was loaded prior to me upgrading.

Any ideas what I'm missing?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
The solution is to uninstall the Chrome browser right away. Take the Lightning browser instead as advised by Timduru. It's the best browser I ever had. ;)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] t3chwizard:
I'm not sure there are any other ROMs of this quality for this device tbh. [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] has spoiled us rotten with his amazing work :)
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Yes, you are right. But in this case might Chrome browser be the cause. If he/she had searched this thread, he/she had found around 8 posts about Chrome browser on this Rom. Finally Tim advised to take the Lightning "Web Browser by Anthony Restaino".

BTW, I also had several problems with Chrome browser on Windows too!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Alagos:
[MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] Would it be possible to make this ROM compatible with Magisk? It's an open source systemless root solution and many other ROMs are using it. It's developed through the work of many people here on the XDA community.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] csk1jw:
Unfortunately, Google broke WebGL support in Chrome for all Tegra3-based device. I am not sure if it is just Chrome or WebView in general, which means all Tegra3-based device are busted for WebGL, even WebGL 1.0, which used to work pretty well on older version of Chrome.

Here's the details:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=344330

WebGL will complain about missing required GL_OES_packed_depth_stencil support which was available before Google chose to disable NV_path_rendering on Tegra3. So I guess Tegra3 GL blobs may be using NV_path_rendering to implement the OpenGL ES 2.0 support for packed depth stencil. This also seriously affected web benchmark scores which take WebGL rendering as part of the scoring weight. I am not sure about Tegra4/4i-based devices (Shield portable, Tegra Note7 etc), but their GPU architecture are similar. Only the new Tegra K1 and X1 work with WebGL on Chrome.

We can try filing complaints to Google/Chrome community. Other than that, I don't know what else we can do to bring WebGL back into Tegra3 devices.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] t3chwizard:
It isn't just this. Nvidia and Asus decided to drop the ball on GPU drivers for our device after 4.2 I think so basically even if Chrome were to fix it the performance would still be atrocious if I'm not mistaken.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] csk1jw:
Well, that's not quite true. On LG-P880 which has 720x1280 panel, the WebGL sample Aquarium rendering actually beat Moto G 1st-gen, with the same 720x1280 panel but more advanced Snapdragon 400/Adreno 305. This was before Google/Chrome disable NV_path_rendering on Tegra3.

For WebGL1.0/OpenGL ES2.0, Tegra3 can perform well when the screen resolution is not very high. I believe this would also apply for Nexus 7 2012 with 1280x800 panel.

However, for ASUS tablet it may be a different story because I think some of the newer ASUS Transformer T30-based tablets are 1920x1080 or 1920x1200, which the Tegra3 with discrete pixel/vertex pipelines cannot handle it quite well.

For your reference, SGX530 and Mali400, both have less GPU performance than Tegra3, but they still render WebGL sample Aquarium (50 fishes) around 12-15fps today on Chrome, with 800x480 and 1024x600 panel respectively. So, we shouldn't just look at performance alone, I think the functionality of being able to render WebGL1.0 is more important than if the rendering performance can be useful. And, for non-gaming context, I think the rendering performance of 12-15fps is perfectly acceptable.
