Well, it seems that after many years this huge effort is near to closure...

Thank you [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] for your outstanding work all this years!! And also to all the participating people in your forums all this years! What a great community!

Against many difficulties (technical & real life, which have make you stronger), you have elevated my TF300T to a point to be a current and a really useful tool, not just a temporary/disposable toy/gadget with a scheduled obsolescence expired several years ago...

If many Corporations had followed your example, the present in several aspects would be much better and the future a lot brighter.

I wish you all the best on your new endeavours and I hope to hear & follow soon your next amazing projects.

Thanks for sharing all this years.

Kudos :good:

Dear Tim, thanks for your clear final statement. Therefore let me drop a few lines. I'm very very grateful for your extraordinary voluntary work to rescue the beloved TF300 over the last years. With your KatKiss Rom you got the device from the MarshMallow level to Nougatella step by step with great success. Every version run stable from the begin. That always deserved our deep respect!

I joined your thread in 2015 with CyanogenMod on my device and I found at first a great circle of helpful users already taught by you to handle all that stuff like Kang TWRP, format Data, change file system to F2FS and so on. A new world has been opened for me by all this wonderful senior members. So I got it too. The difference between CM and MarshMallow at this time was like night and day. And over the years the device got faster and smoother with every upgrade you made. Thanks again! All the best for you. Be sure a new generation of junior member will also participate from your work as developer and teacher too as long as the TF300 will be still alive.

With warm greetings, [MENTION=7106193]ebonit[/MENTION] :)

I've had mixed results with microG. eg Playstore may not be working. Can you be specific about which microG you are using?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Yes, I can.

Right now I'm still using "NanoDroid-microG-20.6.20190126" (04.02.2019). Though there is also a newer version NanoDroid-microG-21.0.91.20190709 (21.08.2019). I didn't try.

BTW, there is a good "No Gapps guide & Tutorial (MicroG)" https://xdaforums.com/android/general/gapps-guidetutorial-microg-t3771483. It contains the install instruction and something more. Very helpful!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] gc2712:
Many thanks. Very helpful link on the tutorial too. I've always just futzed my way through. Now I can do it systematically when I install the final (Thanks Tim) #039 with MicroG. Hopefully a better result this time. :)

Any problems with HDMI output?

Good evening,

at first: thank you for this great working ROM, I love it very much and its a pitty that its finished now.

I run katkiss on my TF300T for 2 years now, but yesterday I had the iead, to hook it to my TV via HDMI.

but there is no picture at the TV, same at my Flat panel (with HDMI-> DVI adapter).

So at first, I wiped/ formated data / flashed the last version of KatKiss, but that didn't help

So, since I didn't read here something about 'HDMI doesnt work', I have four (hopefully not so stupid question:

1. I thought, normally the TF300T simply should mirror its touchscreen to my TV, right?

2. Do I have to switch on the HDMI out in the TF300T (the only thing I found was 'HDMIOutMode', which is 'scale' at the moment)

3. The ROM is flashed, I i didn't change anything, should HDMI work just out of the box?

4. Or do I have to install SuperSU or gapps for HDMI to work properly (I didnt install them, only the ROM )?

At least:

1. Maybe my cable (brand new) is defective (have to buy another one)

( when I plug it into my flat panel wizh TF300T on the other end, the 'no signal'-icon disapears, and its only black

'no signal' reapears, if i pull the HDMI-plug )

2. Maybe my HDMI-Out is somehow broken (never used it until yesterday), but how to be sure?

So if you have some experience with this ROM and HDMIOut, please give me a hint.

Thank you, Wolfgang from saxonia
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] gc2712:
I just plugged my TF300 (Katkiss #38) into the HDMI port of TV to test for you. It just works without any further input from me. I had never connected it to HDMI before, but do connect a TF700 to HDMI TV for streaming video etc. I did have a failed HDMI interface on the TF700 which resulted in the symptoms you describe, and have always found the connector a bit temperamental. Has to be carefully inserted. The TF300 was no problem though and just worked.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] blumentopf75:
Thank you for reply,

yesterday I went to the store and picked up a new (more expensive) microHDMI-Cable and !voila! it just works.

So I have to say sorry for that post, was my mistake. I dont know the difference of the HDMI-Cables, there are a lot of features, which HDMI-Cables have or dont have, I checked the cable in the shop with my TF300T, to be sure.

!Be aware of cheap cables!

Thank you everybody

Hi Timduru,

Hoping you are doing great, I ask you some help please.

A couple of weeks ago I finally ever got the chance to purchase a used dock for my TF300T! And it rocks!

However, I noticed when I press the CAPS LOCK (Bloq Mayús), all the keyboard keys give the "secondary" letter.

And this a very strange behavior to me because is not the "normal way" CAPS LOCK acts in this part of the world

This same case was reported to you years ago (2014 in the KK5.1.1 forum)

Please check the posts #175 up to #183

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56794999&postcount=175

I know I join the party very, very late, but...

Is it possible to provide me a kind of patch (and some guidance to apply it) to make only the -letter- keys go uppercase and the rest of the keys stay on their "normal" way?

Example: The 1&! key keep writing 1 instead of ! because the CAPS LOCK switched ON

The Katkiss keyboard layout I use because its exact match with my dock physical keys (photo enclosed): "Spanish (Laos)"

BTW, I have the latest ROM KatKiss-7.1.2_TF300T_039

I appreciate your help & thanks in advance!

Dock Battery issue

Hi everybody, hi timduru,

yesterday I bought a dock for my TF300 equipped with this Android 7.1.2. v.39 version

Dock works perfectly (keyboard, trackpad, usb port) and recharge also tablet BUT NOT THE DOCK BATTERY (that remains indicated red 0% on the top right of the screen)

For this reason charging light of the dock remains flashing amber also when tablet is 100% full

I tried to unmount tablet and let in charge only dock with a full night recharge but no results

similar issue was discussed in this post

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79194843&postcount=1755

but I didn't find a solution

If anyone or [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] had some suggestion I would be grateful

tks
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] cristobal.digital:
Hi alex1966,

I got my first dock (used, second hand) a couple of months ago and like you, I have a TF300T with KK7.1.2r039 as well

In my case, the dock charges fine without a problem.

Because the dock is something new to me, one of my very first activities when I got it was the boring duty of paying attention to the signaling meaning of leds and icons when charging/discharging the tablet and the dock (Considering all their combinations of course! e.g. Discharged tablet docked to a dock charged , Charged tablet docked to a discharged dock, and so on...)

And I can tell you, the dock should charge with or without the tablet docked (LOL, I feel really stupid saying something logical that does not require hours of torture combining elements!). Now, the details of the Case if you charge a fully depleted battery dock -alone-:

-The dock orange led starts blinking as soon as the charger is connected

-In my case takes about 30min to the led to move from blinking orange to steady orange

-Approximately 2hrs since the dock was connected to the charger, the led changes to steady green (note: you can not interpret that it reached the 100%: I got samples of docking the tablet to know the -exact percentage number- and I got nineties & something)

Of course this timings must vary to you depending on your tablet, dock, charger and cable conditions, but I hope they give you an idea.

On my experience, when power issues arose in the past (tablet not charging, or taking a lot more time than normal to charge) it was because a faulty cable.

And man! I drove me really crazy because the sneaky cable visually look in good shape to be considered as a suspect! (something I take care a lot: I try to bend the minimum, treat it gently, etc)

And if you don't stop me, I can include other nightmares involving very strange behaviors of fastboot and ADB because of a damn cable!

Root cause discovered after exhausting operating system, ROM files, adb version, human errors like not following the flashing instructions correctly, and a huge etcetera!

So... If you have a chance to buy a cable at fair price, go for it and eliminate the possibility! But to me, based on your led flashing orange permanently, I would say the battery on your dock is defective and simply not charging at all.

After this speech, you can imagine why when I got a dock I took considerable time to record timings, led colors and other info that we never pay attention until the day our hardware begins to behave strange...

Off topic: I have the feeling that KK7.1.2r039 "balance" the charge between the dock and the tablet different than having the stock ROM.

I remember to have read someone commenting that in some Katkiss forum in the past, and people discarded it saying is not software but a hardware circuitry which "decides" the balancing.... Honestly, I haven't found enough time and priority to pay close attention playing the detective game... I better pass.

I hope you find the cause of your problem, fix it and share the root cause if possible. Regards
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] alex1966:
Hi cristobal.digital,

tks for your suggestions.

I would exclude cable issues because actually my cable/charger works perfectly charging tablet and also lighting (flashing red) this keyboard.

Dock charge indicator is always fixed to 0% red, also alfer hours and hours of charging. This is not a good element , driving me probably towards a hardware/battery issue

Considering your suggestions, probably it could be some battery issues, that I don't know how to verify except replacing it...

it sound strange to be because dock is almost new and battery are lithium-tech based but... nothing is impossible.

If it's not a software issue probably it would be useless to reinstall Android 4.x stock ROM to verify it

I will continue to verify it and I'll let you know if positive news/changes will occur

Thank to you and to all people interested in this topic

Best regards

Hi alex1966,

I've got a similar problem with my dock. Switching back to Android 4 did not help in my case.

I bought a new one, and it worked perfect for a couple of weeks then won't charge anymore.

I read somewhere it was a hardware issue, but the problem occured only since I installed KatKiss Rom, which is by the way an excellent Rom.

Let me know if you find a solution.

Hello!!

I have the bootloop problem. But tf300t show logo teamrecovery logo and reboot: i think its totally bricked ! When i push volume down , no other comportement. Are you agree with that??

Thanks for your help!!

Édit: with adb i have this message :

List of devices attached

015d8.......fa07 recovery

That's all
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Nope, I don't agree!

First of all, check whether you are able to reach fastboot protocol or not. The bootloop turns off the device frequently. At this time press Volume down and fastboot protocol should appear. That means you have ADB access via USB and you could get back your device on stock rom by doing a Buster99: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12

However if you cannot boot into either fastboot or recovery, the tablet is already bricked for good. I'm sorry!

Hey guys. Recently got another tablet. I did a full wipe and installed the rom but it just hangs on the Asus screen that says "this device is unlocked" I gave it well over 2 hours before a second attempt and still no luck.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Catscratch:
Is recovery still working? So twrp?

If so flush cache and dalvik and try to boot up again. Or flash the whole rom over again.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Kreuger:
I wiped the cache and dalvik as the last step of flashing the rom. I've tried to flash it 3 times now.

Edit: Ive also tried flashing v6 and 4.4. It starts to load, I get the blue progress bar then it seems to restart and the bar is no longer there, and that's when it hangs. Ive tried formatting data, even using the rm-rf command to no avail.

Hi I have madet for a TWRP recovery

Disclaimer: The usual [emoji6]

Use at your own risk, I won't be responsible for any damages caused to your Transformer or to yourself.

In most cases if something breaks, flashing a rom on top should fix it.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Catscratch:
Did you flashed the latest stock rom and boot loader of Asus before flashing any custom Rom?
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Kreuger:
No I don't see why I would have to. But I think the tablet is ruined now anyways. I took the screen off to replace an older one that booted and now I don't think either work.
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Catscratch:
You usually need to upgrade the boot loader to the latest version to be able to flash newer Android custom roms. Or even an actual twrp. But i thing this should be mentioned in every guide.

Please note, this advised Open Gaps package cannot be installed on the device architecture Nougatella#39. I'm sorry! :(
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] ebonit:
Please note, the advise by [MENTION=2873491]Keshukas[/MENTION] to "install open_gapps-arm-7.1-tvstock-xxxx.zip insted gapps-pico" is less helpfully. Because the Open Gaps package cannot be installed on the device architecture of Nougatella#39 by [MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION]. Further instructions didn't came out. So I dried to flash the offered Rom "KatKiss-7.1_TF300T_036-ATV-01.zip". Unfortunately I got a boot stuck.

However for my solution I figured out F-Droid. This is an Android open source store with a diversity of different TV Apps like Episodes, DroidSeries, DroidShows and so on. I found Zapp, a collection of German broadcasting live streams by Cristine Coenen (see screenshot attached). That's exact what I need. I think in dependence of the individuell country everybody will find a solution for TV on TF300T without the danger to brick the tablet.

Bootloop and can't see the device through ADB

Hi guys, I've been having several problems with my Transformer lately. :(

A few years ago, I followed the steps that Timduru gave in other thread to unlock the bootloader, install the recovery and flash the ROM with Android 6. It worked very well and the tablet went really smooth until two days ago, when it crashed, and I don't know yet what happened. It kept rebooting with the Asus logo, and I tried to reboot it into the recovery. I remember that I had to press Power + Vol- buttons at the same time, so I did it. The 3 icons appeared (RCK flashing). Then I made the stupid mistake of no reading first, so I accidentally Wiped data, so now I think I have a useless tablet.

I came here to XDA forums to find a solution, and I read some posts relating similar problems. I tried to do what a user posted in other forum (I can't insert the link, so you can find it if you google this "[GUIDE] Help! My Transformer TF300 boots only to recovery!!!!"), what was my last hope, but my computer doesn't show the Tablet through ADB.

It shows the messages:

C:\adb>adb devices

* daemon nor running. starting it now on port xxxx *

* daemon started successfully *

List of devices attached

But the list of devices appears to be empty. I tried with other Android devices, like mobile phones, and then a string of letters and numbers did appear, so I think the drivers for Windows 10 are correctly installed.

I'm now stucked rebooting into the recovery, and I can't get past the Teamwin logo screen. What should I do? I tried with other USB ports, other computers...I'm so frustrated. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] whoosename:
That's normal. Since the daemon isn't running when you enter the command, you won't get a list of devices. Retype the command again and you are good to go.

You're right! I wanted [MENTION=10641841]Cr4ck86[/MENTION] to read what you said about adb and fastboot access and of course a hint to [MENTION=3127371]Buster99[/MENTION]
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] Cr4ck86:
Thank you both for being in touch! Maybe I didn't explain myself clearly, sorry for my English. When I got the "daemon" messages, then I retyped several times the command "adb devices" and there was no response, just this, over and over:

C:\adb>adb devices

List of devices attached

C:\adb>

So, what I thought is that I couldn't reach fastboot protocol, and I still don't know what to do. In order to do a Buster99, I'll manage to get into the fastboot, but whenever I power on my tablet, it goes through ASUS logo, then shows 4 Linux penguins and a text, then the Teamwin logo that I mentioned. How can I do anything of what you said if I can't reach the fastboot?

Thanks a lot!
[Transformer TF300T Android Development] whoosename:
For Fastboot you need the "fastboot" command: fastboot devices . On my Windows machine I use the tool "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" from here: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

You should get a similar output like from "adb devices" command.
