Would Timduru or anyone help with my tablet problem please?

Haven't posted in a while but had a sudden shutdown of my TF700 last night and wonder if you can help me get it up and running.

I use TF700 to stream TV shows to big screen using Kodi. It's usually plugged in, power on 24/7 with only lid closed when not using and an occasional reboot.

So, streaming a TV show the video suddenly froze, audio screamed and everything went dark.

It then went into loop of ASUS screen on for 15 seconds, off for a moment, one vibrate, on again 15 seconds etc.

I tried several times to enter recovery and got the TWRP start screen only.

I never went to Oreo and stayed with 7.2. Last update was Nougatella V22 (maybe V25), SuperSu 2.79 (I think) and the TWRP version from that time.

Thank you

Updated adb. I've powered it back up. It's looping ASUS screen, ASUS screen off, one vibrate etc.

Removed micro-SD. Power +volume down will allow me to select recovery but TWRP screen shuts off quickly. I have just enough time to enter adb devices and it does recognize device showing xxx recovery. Quickly goes back to loop.

Hi,

I installed UnifiedNlp via FDroid, but it doesnt bind to the system. Everything else is working fine according to the selftest. Amy advice? Using the latest Katkiss ROM.

-- edit: so here is the solution. Download the apk directly, reboot to twrp, mount /system, go to twrp file manager, copy the apk to /system/priv-app, reboot. That's it
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
Mine wasn't exactly a boot loop, the second time it restarted, it would boot to recovery, then to system. BUT - no-one's going to believe this - I found the problem. See the attached. I've had it for years and just realized what "I think" it's for, but when connected the above booting process occurs. Without it the tablet boot fine. I'm lost.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kenaz Rune:
I'm not sure I understand the pictures.

I have an update on my problem. Everything I tried failed. Now if I don't force it to bootloader, it always goes to TWRP, then reboots before reaching the menu. There's no OS even though I know it is (was) there. I've finally given up on this venerable device and am awaiting a credit card point redemption to purchase the only modern tablet I can find that is amenable to rooting and will last me years: Galaxy Tab A 2018 model.

For all out there, if you feel I'm wrong about that tablet, please contact me and explain what you think would be a better bet. I'm choosing the 2018 release because of the apparent problems with TWRP/Magisk on the 2019 model. Of course, I just looked for the info again, and I can't find it - perhaps it was fixed. The problem was that one had to boot to recovery to get the Magisk/root mode once installed. That's not acceptable to me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
Good luck with that...I didn't try to root mine because I hated it so much. I just stuck it back in the box.

That picture, I believe, had the GPS antenna attached to the bottom of the tablet. That was sent out by Asus to try and correct the cruddy GPS that was in the TF200's...I think. So he's saying if you have it attached, remove it and see if it will boot proper.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Born<ICs:
I just managed to recover from TWRP screen boot loop and am back up and running with KatKiss V38.

Can anyone point me to instructions to go from SuperSU to Magisk?

Thanks much
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
Well that would explain why it "seems" that the connection IS actually connected/doing something. I use it as a "hand-stand" takes out the sharpness of the tablet when held like I did.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
IS there a easy/quick way to connect the 700 to a PC and have the ext sdcard look like a removable drive?

Mass Storage Enabler? I really need to to sync a LOT of data, I use GoodSync, which has an Android "explorer", but it just reboots the tablet when run.
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
I think so...use the charging cable as it doubles as a USB cable. Some drivers might have to install but as I recall it does work. You might see an icon appear in the upper left of the 700's taskbar so open it and tell it how you want to use the usb port.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
No can do. Even if I pick file transfer, it can't be seen as a drive letter. I got the WebDav Server to work ... an in-elegant solution.
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
Well when I do it to my Windowz PC it shows up as a DEVICE not a drive.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
That's what I don't want/can't have it do.

A drive letter and GoodSync (which I use) allows me to sync folders other than Texts/photos/etc.

GPS not working for me in #38

Hello, great ROM but GPS is pathetic on my TF700 w/ #38 (don't know about earlier). Under mostly unobstructed sky it can find up to 7 satellites in about a minute with a <1 day old satellite ephemeris but they don't lock at all so frequently disappear. Rarely do I proceed to a lock even when driving and then the lock is unstable so useless for navigation.

Is GPS problematic for this ROM? Any suggestions would be most helpful! I also have a TF201 w/ the external antenna that also hasn't worked (in that case at all) with this ROM #38 but I have less confidence that its hardware is ok.
[Asus Transformer TF700] GCCC:
Ah nevermind, GPX FIX/Optimize corrected config for the US and now I find up to 7 satellites and after a few mins they are stable. I'll ask in the TF201 forum why this ROM is not working for that device even with its external GPS add-on.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Skyjumper_GR:
I would be very happy about update to Android 9 or security updates. Is there such for this tablet?
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
There have been in the past! So hang in there!
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
New version #039

New rom version available:

TF700T : KatKiss-7.1_TF700T_039.zip

TF201 : KatKiss-7.1_TF201_039.zip

Changelog:

- Port September 8.1 Oreo Security Fixes

- Port August 8.1 Oreo Security Fixes

- Port July 8.1 Oreo Security Fixes

- Port June 8.1 Oreo Security Fixes

Please note that it will be the last version for the TF700 & TF201

With Android 10 out, it'll be more and more a pain to backport things as google will abandon 8.x

Hope you enjoyed the rom through the years :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] gc2712:
Many thanks for your volunteering. It has been a great help to me and I'm sure many others in giving life to our old tablets. (I still can't find a better replacement with keyboard!)
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
Yeah shame asus didn't make new good ones.

The TF701 is still the best imho, it's a huge improvement in speed and responsiveness with KatKiss compared to the TF700 & TF300

if you can get your paws onto one for cheap go for it :P

I mostly use my PixelC tablet nowadays. the keyboard is a bit of a pain to use compared to the TFXXX, but it does its job.

Too bad google has abandonned it too now, sitting on June security updates....

and google is not releasing any other new tablets.

I really don't understand, 10" tablets are really super practical for most of my daily usage.

I rarely have to go to the PC anymore unless I have to do something heavy like videos or photos editing.

Everything else goes onto the tablet :P

Ah well, maybe I'll migrate to a chromebook at some point, but most are 12" and bigger...

but now that you can run android apps natively too, it might be a good alternative to consider.

My PixelC & TF701 will do for the moment :P
[Asus Transformer TF700] gc2712:
Have to agree. Thanks for the suggestion too. I might suss around for a TF701.

ASUS tf201 after trying to install android 7

Hello everyone,

on Saturday I dug my "old" Asus tf201 out of the cupboard again. After starting the TF201 I had to find out that Android 4 was still installed on it.

After some googling I came across this article about upgrading to Android 7.

I'm afraid I did almost everything wrong during the upgrade process.

I have now completely deleted tf201. There is no operating system on it anymore.

I can start the tablet and access TWRP in version 3.2.3-0_KANG.

I have already tried to install the Android 7 ROM, but it doesn't work (error 70 - too little memory).

Does anyone have any idea how to save the tablet or is it lost?
[Asus Transformer TF700] lofgents:
I had to buy a new tablet as the Asus has a hardware problem. I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6. The Tablet as far as performance goes is excellent but the display is nowhere near as good as the Asus. Brightness and contrast are well down on the Asus especially when viewing outdoors.

What the HELL is Miscellaneous Battery Useage!?!

My T700 is suddenly - I mean that - draining straight from the first time I use it in the morning (after a full charge) till it either shuts off or makes enough noise that I catch it.

Nothing unusual is running EXCEPT, when I go to settings/battery, "Miscellaneous" (since last full charge) is/has used 53% of the battery! WHAT IS IT, or how do I figure out what it IS?

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] uncleg:
Did You format the /data ( not wipe ) ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Unidave199:
I have been using your ROM for years now and you have made the TF700 a workhorse in my job and brought life FAR beyond what was envisioned by the designers. Thank you so very much for all your hard work and dedication to to this device!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nickoplier:
Has anyone gotten the latest build to pass safetynet? Mine's not even passing basicIntegrity at this moment. Even with Magisk set to latest/beta?
[Asus Transformer TF700] joe_933:
thank you timduru

just sended you a small tip for your work over the years. ;)

i'm enjoying and working with my tf201 from 2011 because of you!

i mainly use it for word and notes, to tune my PIDs from my quad, to browse, watch youtube and so on.

I tend to agree with you and have not much for anything bigger than 11", except,:D... my one glaring exception the Asus p1801 which I unfortunately need for writing (18.4")...speaking of , now that you're done with developing for the 10" is there any chance you could port some of the roms to it? I know it's a big and strange ask, but I literally would pay good money to get that damn thing on anything but stock (and I have tried!), I'm just not knowledgeable enough and the wifi modules are always crashing...Msg privately if you'd be amenable.

Regardless, many, many thanks for keeping the tf700/tf701 as good if not better than tablets released just recently.

Losing Internal Drive

Periodically my T700 "looses" the internal drive. Nothing can access it and via Total Commander it shows as Unknown.

When it boots it "preparing SDCard" for about 5-10 minutes and then it'll complete booting - FWIW, it's not the external card.

I reboot (when it's done) 2 - 4,5 times before the "card" is seen correctly.

I've a nano backup, done after this happened (I'm wondering if at that level it DID B/U the partition, it showed no errors).

Maybe just a wipe/format data only and restore?

Or do i have to start from scratch - I've got a lot of "stuff" on this sucker.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Undomestic Goddess:
you have my sympathies...apparently mine lost its internal drive just last week and it's been driving me bonkers ever since...

i can't get past the asus logo and when in recovery it's impossible to even see or mount internal storage...BACK UP EVERYTHING OUT NOW while you still can...mine didn't even show any signs this was going to happen, I put it to charge and 40 minutes later when I returned, there was the bootloop...I am so pissed...in twrp, .data wipe fails and cannot restore either...
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
Maybe what you need to do is to continue to reboot into TWRP until it DOES see it and then start formatting ...

On my T700, I can get to TWRP and it sees the 3 partitions to backup - I'm doing that now.

So, if I want to do this (as I can NEVER remember), wipe all/format data/change to F2FS?

Of course, as I'm thinking, could you not fastboot in, and re-install? Maybe fix/get you in enough to reformat?

************** UPdate ***************************

I wiped, reformatted /data, then changed to F2FS and restored an image from months ago. When it booted there was no problem with the internal storage, but it banged on about the ext card. BUT when I looked at the data partition, the were only 2 directories, instead of 25 or so. Rebooted and then it had a problem seeing the data drive properly, but if I go through root/storage/emulated/0/, I can see it fine ... just nothing else can.

Gonna try a new install.
[Asus Transformer TF700] seukla:
Sorry for my poor english, but i am trying to install a multiboot linux with this Katkiss rom but i can't because i think the file with kernels TF700t-AKBI v2.6.8 ( xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2387133 ) is too old.

Someone can give me somme information to get an update for TF700t-AKBI v2.6.8 with the KatKernel please ?

Many thanks

Any luck? There's a post in this thread from July 2018 about mount namespace support in the kernel https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf700/development/rom-t3457417/post77029711#post77029711 . I don't know if that's still relevant, and I wouldn't know where to start to patch the kernel myself.

I'm using the latest magisk 20.1 and magisk manager 7.4.0. I've also tried the MagiskHide Props Config v5.1.0-v70, PetNoires SafetySpoofer v1-beta2, and SafetyPatch v3. I haven't tried removing SuperSU, but I don't see it installed, so I think maybe I forgot to install it in the first place.

Edit: Looks like namespace support was added shortly after the post
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nickoplier:
No luck

Yeah, still no luck. The ROM has selinux set to permissive, not enforcing which may be tripping safetynet basic integrity. I've tried setting to enforcing but there seems to be a load of policies the selinux needs to even be able to stabley run the rom.

As of now, I've just given up on getting safetynet as magisk was unable to hide the selinux.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fragmentalstew:
I had no idea this device was showing up as a Huawai P20 Pro in my google devices, and I thought it was someone had gained access to my google account. But not, it's just this device. I don't know if this is a side effect of Magisk. So, be aware of this. If you're still concerned you can use the Google "Find your phone" to make it beep.

Long loading time on new ROM

I just installed KatKiss 7.1 on my TF700t. It's been sitting on the KatKiss logo for over an hour. How long is it supposed to take to boot up the first time?

Thanks,

Mark
[Asus Transformer TF700] gc2712:
IIRC 5-10 minutes max. But it's been a while. An hour is definitely way too long.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zheega:
Just hold power + volume down for 5 seconds, boot will take ~1 minute on the next restart.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mcreek:
At this point, it won't boot to anything. No OS and no recovery. Recovery just shows the teamwin screen and never does anything else. Hopefully it's not bricked. I guess my next step would be fastboot and start form scratch? It's been years since iv'e tried to do that.

Tablet setup wizard does not work

Hi. I have a question, maybe someone will help...

After the installation of the Rom, the tablet setup wizard does not work. I can only choose the language.

I tried all the Rom:

KatKiss-7.1_TF700T_039.zip

KatKiss-7.1_TF700T_038.zip

KatKiss-7.1_TF700T_037b.zip

but the result is the same.

But only the firmware KatKiss-6.0_TF700T_029.zip tablet works good.
[Asus Transformer TF700] goosebickel:
Turn the WiFi on, it will work fine then, should be a button on bottom left of screen to toggle on/off.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Vova_D3377:
Hi!

Thank you very much for your help! :fingers-crossed:

I did everything as you said. The firmware was installed.

I'm happy the tablet works perfectly.:victory:

Hi!

Thanks a lot for this ROM, it's truely mind blowing: I switched to a barely usable tablet to a snappy one. Great job!

Really, for a tablet which is 8 years old... wow!

However, I just got an issue with internet browsing and it is worth telling what it was all about and how to "fix" it (with a hammer, though...) in case someone stumble into the same problem.

It worked well for a few days, and then _any_ internet browser was able to do its job. It was possible to go into their settings, etc... But no internet pages could be loaded. And it was not a internet access issue because f-droid, NewPipe etc... worked perfectly well.

The fact that it affects all internet browser (katkiss browser, lightning, FOSS browser, ...) is really weird. But it tells something: it has to be something common to all: DNS? (but why other apps could access the net then?) Cache access?

Anyway, I fixed it by wiping out the cache and dalvik cache.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KiruaEikichi:
Hi,

I have a problem, i try v039 and 038 and it doesn't work.

The installation of ROM, SU, and Gapps went well.

I chose my language, but I'm stuck at "looking for updates ...". My wifi is on, I'm connected

Can you help me. Thank you
[Asus Transformer TF700] Skyjumper_GR:
Restart your Tablet. Hold the power button for 5-10 seconds.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KiruaEikichi:
It doesn't change anything. It still doesn't work
[Asus Transformer TF700] gc2712:
Can you access the internet OK with other apps? If you have signed in with your Google account maybe try clearing cache and data in the Playstore app.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KiruaEikichi:
I just flash the rom, so KatKiss start, i chose language, then i have "welcome to your TF700T" and i have choise between "Copy the data" or "configure as a new device".

I chose "configure as a new device" and after that i have "searching update" "this process can take 1 to 2 minutes".

And i'm stuck here.

So i can't chose other apps, and I can't skip this step
[Asus Transformer TF700] Skyjumper_GR:
Note that current gapps setup wizard will crash as it is not fully compatible with android 7.1.2 (KatKiss >= 022)

unless you turn on wifi manually after the language selection in the initial setup.

if you don't have a dock, use the extra wifi button in the navbar (bottom right)
[Asus Transformer TF700] KiruaEikichi:
Already done. I see "Wifi enabled" and / or "Wifi disabled" when I click
[Asus Transformer TF700] KiruaEikichi:
Someone else have an idea?

Thank you
[Asus Transformer TF700] MrJoltz:
You want disabled.

Complete the setup afterwards, all these instructions are in the OP IIRC.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KiruaEikichi:
I don't understand.

When i chose "set up as new" if wifi is disabled i have "setup wizard keeps stopping. Close app", and if it's enabled à have "checking for updates. This may take a minute or two" and it's stuck here.

What does it mean "the OP IIRC"?
[Asus Transformer TF700] zheega:
Need to donate to this guy again!

Anyway, min screen brightness is again too high! :)

I have a problem that sometimes WiFi disconnects, didn't have that problem with any 6.0 releases. It doesn't reconnect, have to reconnect manually.

Freezing

First time poster, first huge thanks to timduru amazing work!!. Recently switched from cyanogenmod to KatKiss on my Asus TF700. Running Nougat latest build #10

Two problems I am having:

1) I keep getting a lot of freezing/lagging, will last from 5 to 30 seconds no option but to wait. Often the app I have open will report not responding. Not sure the cause of this.

2) second issue is really poor battery performance. Im lucky to get an hour use with it. Performance is on interactive. Turned off bluetooth, GPS, lower brightness all those tweaks only make minor difference. Would get at least 3-4 hours on cyanogenmod.

Any ideas? Other than above really great release a very happy for timduru to make the effort.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Maxxy13:
I confirm intermittent freezing/lagging but t.b.o. this tablet never been lag-free, even on the original Asus ROM.

All in all I got to say the tablet is running fairly well for a 4 year-old device.

In this regard I'd like to ask the OP (timduru) if it's possible to add support for data2sd in the kernel?

No battery issue for me. Easily goes over a day of light use.

Probably your battery is going south...
[Asus Transformer TF700] spicc:
Thx for the reply. What firmware are you on? I'm on 10.6.1.14.10-20130801

The lagging is enough to make it unusable at times, so random. I'm going to try uninstalling some apps i.e. VLC to see if conflicts. Doubt battery itself is issue it was fine two weeks on cyanogenmod.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Did you do a full format of data - not just a wipe - before flashing this rom? Does not sound like it....
[Asus Transformer TF700] DoughMucker:
Just confirming that I also had the lagging mentioned above. A reboot got rid of it. I did a format before flashing.
