[MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] You are a champ. I installed the ROM using the instructions from Beginners Guide to root and flashing a custom ROM on the TF700T by berndblb and all is working seamlesly. However, I did notice the following:

1- The rom runs as if it were on a phone, did anyone else get that or did I do something wrong?

2- I was unable to use a second language for the dock, tried to toggle input language using the shortcuts but that was a deadend. The quick solution I did was to install the swype kb and use the other language on it. Was anyone able to use dual languages on the dock keyboard via a different method?

Please help

[MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION]

Hello, new guy over here.

My brother left me at home his TF700T to try to bring back to life that piece of brick, the problem is the big mess with the TWRP. This is because it installed the lower version of TWRP and then installed an upgrade version over the lower one, with this bootloader not working like it has to do.

The rom he installed [MarshMallow 6.0.1] crash a few second after entering the initial screen (where you see the apps and all that stuff) and not let me do anything because reboot over and over.

Is there a way to install a new TWRP or CWM and after that install a new rom?

Can I do this through micro sd? I watch a video where the rom is copy in to the micro sd card, insert in the tablet, turn it on and flashed right away. The rom has to be in .rar or .img file in order to do this or there is more step before this.

Thanks for you help and sorry if this don't belong here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
This is definitely the wrong place for your question.

You should start here: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2688891

Read at least the first 2 posts carefully and start from there. You can ask in that thread if you need help and start with providing some actually useful information:

bootloader version

TWRP version

fastboot and/or adb access in fastboot mode or when in recovery?
[Asus Transformer TF700] electricbluejase:
Can confirm that does work, I was trying to not connect to a WiFi and go next and it kept crashing, at least getting it booted with the rom without gapps worked first and then flashing gapps afterwards was a work around but yeah, will know that for the next update, assuming there will be one. :)

Wow i have a TF201 that i didn't switched on for years now, i wanted to use it for monitoring my 3D printer which is far from my computer, i never expected to find a Nougat rom, BIG thanks for the work

Hello Timduru,

Longer time ago I asked about encryption of the device.

Now I had another request.

Would it be possible to add encryption at the kernel?

Or is the source for the tf700 this link:

https://github.com/timduru/tf300t-katkernel

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] titi87:
Hi,

First, thanks to Timduru for his fantastic job with this ROM.

I'm using the #24 on a TF201 and facing a wallpaper crop. Not a big deal but is there any fix for this ?

Thanks a lot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
it depends what you want exactly.

Yep (branch dev-tf700t)
[Asus Transformer TF700] schlombie:
I want you to include full-disk encryption to secure my data partition:

https://source.android.com/security/encryption/full-disk

I assume it's a kernel feature.

Full-disk encryption was introduced to Android in 4.4, but Android 5.0 introduced these new features:

Created fast encryption, which only encrypts used blocks on the data partition to avoid first boot taking a long time. Only ext4 and f2fs filesystems currently support fast encryption.

If it's possible! :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
I had a look back at the beginning of MM but not sure what's failing for encryption.

I have already activated dm-crypt and encryption in kernel

Could be that we lack keymaster and/or HW support, not sure.

Performance on our devices would be really bad anyway

I know that a few would prefer a slow encrypted device, than non encrypted, but not worth it imho.

that's why I didn't push it more as free time is not infinite ;)

And with Android Octopus around the corner... ;)

Search this thread for "wallpaper". It's been talked about many times before. It has something to do with the dimensions of the picture you use as I recall.

#024 "Setup Wizard Keeps Stopping" Error

After "Let's Start" and tapping new user, this is the error I keep getting and can not go any further.

This is a full, clean update wipe/format/convert/install.

Using: KatKiss-7.1_TF700T_024, open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170715, UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214 all flashed one at a time in that order. #020 did not give me this problem, didn't use any of the itinerations between #020 and #024.

(Is there an advantage to converting cache and dalvik to f2fs?)

Any ideas?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Grobsen:
Don't know what "this" is, but I guess fc.

Turn on WiFi with the button bottom right.

Reading OP might had helped too;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] schlombie:
Oh, sorry! The last info I had was:

So I'll test again.

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
yeah and the kernel options were already activated back then, but encryption still failing.

could still test again, but I don't think the result will change
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
That would be the message I was getting in the title of the question :p

Had figured it out, and had read the post above regarding this, but did not realize that even though the WiFi icon was white instead of blank could mean that it was off, seems counter-intuitive to me.

I've read that so many times - I try as hard as I can NOT to ask questions that have already been answered. Seems - to me - that "searching" for an answer only gives me what I need about 50% of the time, ESPECIALLY in a thread a large/long as this.

Ideas regarding formatting cache/Dalvik?

BTW, just re-read the OP and there is nothing regarding this problem there - if I missed it point it out to me please! I want to what I seem to be "bypassing".

Thanks for taking the time to answer!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Grobsen:
Sorry, the xda app shows no titles

It's in the Changelog v22

No idea @ cache/dalvik

You're welcome , no problem ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
no benefit

cache partition is not used anymore

dalvik-cache is in the /data partition so it's already f2fs and you won't be able to format it as it's a directory.

1st post install instructions in red:

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)
[Asus Transformer TF700] RBraverman:
OK, so I screwed up ALL - mea culpa.

I read that but it seemed that as the WiFi icon was full white, it WAS on.

My mistake - until I tapped it to see I hadn't realized.

Can I use Substratum with this ROM, because when I download it it says Substratum Legacy.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zj4x4:
Hello,

I think I'm very close to making this work but there must be something I'm missing and would appreciate any help you can offer. I have TWRP 3.1.0-1 recovery, have wiped everything, converted /data/ to f2fs and have installed the ROM and SuperSU but I have 2 issues:

- I cannot flash gapps due to insufficient space on /system. I tried resizing it but that doesn't seem to do anything.

- After flashing everything except gapps and rebooting the system sits indefinitely at the ASUS screen. I'm not sure if this has to do with the gapps issue.

I've done some reading about HairyBean and I'm not sure if I need this. It looks like a much older recovery than what I already have. In any case since that's not in the main instructions for the ROM I assume it's not necessary.
[Asus Transformer TF700] monogwai:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the deal is you need the same bootloader version that you need if you were using hairybean, not that you need the hairybean recovery. I think the only requirement, recovery-wise, is your ability to format /data to f2fs. That's my .02 worth. :)

Oh, and as far as gapps is concerned, your tablet should still boot without it. You just won't have any apps or market. Which size are you using?
[Asus Transformer TF700] zj4x4:
I came to the same conclusion and just flashed Hairybean and then reflashed TWRP 3.1.0. Resizing /system worked after that and I was able to get everything installed. I guess at some point I had used an alternate bootloader which wasn't compatible.

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Redfive67:
Thank you Timduru for making the last 18 months of my Asus tablet bearable. Dropped it yesterday on the cement. Shattered the screen from the bottom right to the center . RIP

I was so looking forward to your Oreo implementation.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gunzola:
Great work! I have had Cyanogenmod running for the last couple of years... but this Nougatella v24 is just brilliant.

I had some issues with freeze-ups during idle. But, that was due to wrong bootloader version... so (to all others). Correct bootloader is essential!!!

hi all proud useres of the Tf201 :)

just installed version 025 on my prime by following the instructions on post 1. (flashed over 024 with wipes)

using my prime for office, youtube, browsing, spotify and homeautomation.

025 works very well! so hit the thanksbutton for timduru! ;)

thx Joe
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
Working fine on my TF700T but there is still an old issue. If you connect the charger while it is ON and turn the tablet off when the battery reaches 100% it turns itself on. Maybe this is supposed to happen or have I missed some setting?

Feedback on #025

Hi Tim,

Thanks very much again for the update which I've been testing since release. Unfortunately I must say that #024 worked better for me. Basically all is working under #025 BUT much slower and less responsive, with more lags (in many apps I get the 'not responding, wait / close app' message), Chrome tends to crash in these occasions.

I would like to help out to find potential causes but as I'm basically an 'experienced noob' just following instructions / tutorials I don't know exactly what to look for / try out / tweak / maybe log files to send. Please let me know if there's anything that would help.

What I did so far:

- coming from CROMI-X I did full wipe including formatting data and first installed Nougatella 6.x

- after problems with some apps I did a standard wipe without formatting data and directly flashed 7.1.2 #024 the same day which so far has been the smoothest ROM ever running on my tablet

- before flashing #025 I also just did a standard wipe without formatting data

-> should I try a clean install of #025 with formatting data before flashing?

Thx again for the great work and rgds

---------- Post added at 11:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

Hi again,

after installing #025 I tested HDMI output for the first time. Works flawlessly to my Full HD 1080P projector behind a low cost 4x2 HDMI matrix switch!

The only thing that annoys me a bit is that the image is scaled down significantly because of the Transformer's 1920x1200 native display resolution, doesn't affect quality but of course image size is considerably smaller.

-> Could it maybe be solved / remedied by changing the display resolution on the Tansformer to 1920x1080? Would that be possible? I couldn't find any option so far...

Thx in advance for any hints and rgds

Edit: I realized that some apps support switching HDMI out display output to 1920x1080 automatically in fullscreen mode, e.g. Zattoo, but some don't, like Amazon Prime Video...

Edit 2: Problem solved, found an app which can do it (Easy DPI Changer), sorry for bothering...
[Asus Transformer TF700] dozor720:
I've changed my screen resolution to 1680x1050 and DPI to 210, and now tablet is much faster. Try Easy DPI Changer for it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] megaequs:
1680x1650 is nearly a square..... BTW, what app you are using to change resolution?
[Asus Transformer TF700] dozor720:
I made mistake in resolution :) 1680x1050 is correct. I used Easy DPI Changer, this app also can change rsolution, not only DPI.

[MENTION=3951330]timduru[/MENTION] I've been having problems trying to compile katkernel using gcc6 for PostmarketOS. Namely I'm getting stuck on this error when compiling:

[Asus Transformer TF700] jja2000:
It was! Any idea why you reverted that commit?

Last question would be if I need to append a dtb to the built kernel or not? It's important to make it function of course.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timduru:
it's because the tf700t kernel doesn't boot if built with gcc 5.1 whereas the tf300t works fine.

so had to revert the fix to build it with an older version.

not sure what you mean.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Born<ICs:

Hi,

I still have a wallpaper crop on my TF201. I can manually change the wallpaper size but not automatically.

The file "data/system/users/O/wallpaper_info.xml" shows 1920x1280 resolution in order to 1280x800 for the TF201.

Hope that helps to fix this issue.

Thanks.

Is it possible to format data to f2fs with twrp 3.1.1.0 ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ebonit:
Yes, it is!

However in order to avoid any issues Kang TWRP is still recommended by the developer for this Rom. Look at post #1, install instruction!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nektopoli:
Yeah, stick with KANG's - TWRP X.X.X-X to avoid the slight possibilities of issues.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ketulharini:
Any link for it?

I googled it but found older version.

Is it Possible to install with current twrp or need to do fastboot, my cable is not original so not sure can flash via fastboot.

Thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] Skyjumper_GR:
I have installed the original TWRP and it works perfect.

https://eu.dl.twrp.me/tf700t/

If you have twrp 2.8.6.0 or higher, you can install the newer twrp...img via twrp.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ketulharini:
This is original version that link is in twrp website I know that I was after Kang's latest version I found 2.8.7.4

If this is the latest I will flash this.

[Asus Transformer TF700] RustySawDust:
After trying a bunch of ROMs over the years I pretty much gave up on my TF700, it was always just painfully slow. I really thought a brand new OS would make it even worse but this is absolutely the best this thing has ever run. I've also never used f2fs before so that may have had a big impact.

First of all thanks for the great piece of work! Really appreciate seeing Nougat on my good old TF700 ;)

I 'm seeing problem where I am at a loss though. It seems that I can't get applications to write to the external storage card.

Here is what I have tried so far:

Giving "storage" permission to the respective app(s)

Giving general permission "external storage" in the developer settings

In particular I'm trying to save a html page from "Firefox". But also the "Folder Sync" app has the very same problem. What is there I could try or do? Or at least what additional information should I gather to get help on this?

EDIT:

Not sure if this helps, but from "Folder Sync" I got a little more detailed information:

"Permission denial: opening provider com.android.externalstorage.ExternalStorageProvider from ... requires android.permission.MANAGE_DOCUMENTS"
[Asus Transformer TF700] dozor720:
I also have problems with writing data to the sdcard. For example, I can't install offline languages for google translate, althought it has storage permissions.

Is it normally that there are only 50 mb free space in /root directory?
