Info and GPL Compliance

Some small intro:

Asus never complied with GPL (despite the efforts of many people, myself included)

Asus always denied to provide the *real kernel source code, instead they provided an generic kernel that is useless, as it doesn't contained ANY driver used by this device

My Kernel, was made from *scratch, and this took some years to achieve the current state, yet, it's not completed nor perfect:

Broken:

- No cameras support ( the image sensors are highly customized by Asus), this is broken at kernel level, let alone on ROM...

- Sensors ( accelerometer & magnetometer are still kinda broken, they are registered, but don't work most of the times)

half Broken:

- WiFi : WiFi driver has also been highly customized, right now WiFi is working just fine, but with just one small bug

--> if you disconnect WiFi, and then afterwards try to connect it'll hang ( you need to reboot) FIXED since Build 20200516

- Reported battery percentage, isn't very precise , and may have sudden drops

Working:

LCM nt35521_dsi_vdo

LCM lgld070wx3_dsi_vdo

(second HW revision), support available in an seperate kernel .zip

( check F.A.Q above)

Touch (GT927)

Charging (BQ24156)

Storages

All the rest

Oh god. This looks amazing!

Dang that I sold mine a few years ago...

Good work!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tweakradje:
Thanks for your efforts to make this working. Great job!

Still have one lying around here so definetly gonna try this.

If remaining problems with CM12.x are solved will there be like CM14 in the future too?

Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
Funny you asked this

There's some early work already towards los 14

[Miscellaneous Android Development] taller_stk:
Thanks for work!

Yesterday I install this version on my tablet. Good side: tablet booted :) But after screen lock, I only can see screen backlight and sounds when I tap to a black screen, reboot helped solve this problem, but after screen lock, this problem repeated. And I can't turn on wifi
[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
Interesting...

As I mentioned previously, this tablet came with two versions of LCM, I own two and both have the same :

"nt35521_dsi_vdo"

I can only assume your have the other LCM variant from LG "lgld070wx3_dsi_vdo"

As you can see here in kernel project configuration:

https://github.com/dragonpt/android...sus/mediatek/config/asus/ProjectConfig.mk#L49

Thanks for your provided feedback, you gave me an clue in how to possibly fix this second LCM variant, I'll look into it.

Meanwhile if you please: before your tablet went into locking, where the colors alright, any noticeable artifacts in the screen?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] taller_stk:
Yep, I see some artifacts on the screen: screen blink and white line on the bottom of the screen

JFYI, I have RUS tablet version
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Trubbs:
Hi, is there a method from stock to determine that LCM version?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
yes

If you have stock rom (or any of my AOSP roms)

you need root, install deviceinfohw app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.andr7e.deviceinfohw&hl=en_US

then on this app go to settings, allow root permissions

reload the app, and it'll show the LCM driver

edit check picture:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dt_matthews:
What are people using for root on this? I've tried flashing Magisk (v20) but it fails in an unsupported image format when extracting the boot image.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
Lineage have their own su, you can activate it on developer settings

- you can also flash latest SuperSu 2.82 (tested working)

-Magisk haves some issues with some Mediatek devices (some other mtk devices my team supports haves this issue as well)

If I recall ... only until version 14 or 16 works

( I'll confirm this later)

Cheers

I have graphic artifacts after waking up the device. in addition, tablet charging does not work. after uploading the re-stock ROM loading works

[Miscellaneous Android Development] superdragonpt:
Really Weird charging is not working...

Working fine for me, (16 GB variant WW) also a user with the 16GB variant RU also confirmed this to be working

About after waking up the device I have this sometimes as well, its ESD discharge from the LCM, not something to worry about, the LCM is not perfect, needs some more tuning .

Could you tell me what LCM does your variant uses?

You just need to install an app and check .

Seems to me , there's some more model variants

( with slightly different hardware that I was aware )

Cheers
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dt_matthews:
Ah, great, ok, I'll activate the provided su in settings.

Installed rom without issue, good instructions :good:

I also get problems waking device, in fact always have to reboot. Main reason to install was to allow netflix downloads however it appears that is a deeper issue than just android version, possibly architecture. But it does allow install of kodi so positive there. Main use is entertainment device in my car during lunch break.

Also have weird keyboard issues, double key entry type android get androoid and random other key presses miles away from where my fat fingers are pressing.

Great work so far otherwise, thanks

Let me know if I can assist dev with any test or info.

[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] viaphone1224:
Hello everyone,

When flashing stock firmware, my phone suddenly went non-responsive during the reboot and now it seems to be bricked pretty bad. When looking in the device manager, the only weird thing I see is that the device is coming up as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9006.

From what I have seen, I need a package called an EMMC, but I have no idea where to get that. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

I get no response, no bootloader, no logo, no recovery, and buttons do not work. I have other Razer 2 devices to test from to get this working and will do any suggestions to unbrick this device.

thank you,
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] prisoner1969:
I just got my RN7 Pro. I'm in the USA and have used RN2 and RN4x. My sim works in both of those phones with custom roms and my provider (US Mobile) verified RN7 Pro should work. So I've gone though all the trouble shooting with them. My phone came with the bootloader locked so I have to do the whole unlock thing but in the meantime I wanted to use the phone and MIUI. MIUI is showing what's in the screenshot. I verified the number using the RN4x on the MI.com site. Any suggestions on how to get this to work? Will it cause problems if I can't connect via mobile data to unlock the phone? I'd really like to use the phone while I'm waiting for the unlock to go through.

I'm seeing that I do need to get this figured out to be able to use mobile data to get my phone unlocked. Now I'm getting concerned.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] prisoner1969:
Okay got it to work. It's a signal problem it seems. My other RN2 and RN4x get signals pretty easily. However the RN7 pro is having issues picking up cell signals. I finally got it to connect but both at home and at work I don't have a signal with that phone. It at least works but with out a signal at my two main locations it's a problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] buddie024:
I recently purchased this tablet + dock from goodwill and I am really liking it.

The first thing I did was root the device then I started trying the different roms available here and my favorite has been Katkiss 6.0.3 because it has been very stable (without google). I mainly use it for light web browsing, youtube videos (through newpipe) my favorite, emulators!

I was just wondering does anyone still use the tablet? If so, what for?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] NotLemon:
I still use it, it's a good tablet.

Sorry for my bad English.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] VsUK:
Yeah, I recently dug it out the draw when I decided to look at kindles for reading. Then realised I had a perfectly good tabled with an extra power pack in the form of keyboard dock. So, I am as we speak flashing KatKiss 6.0.0.34 onto it. But discovered not to install gapps, because play store seems to force the tablet into a boot loop. So its just a case of downloading aps via browser or another app altogether. The only annoyance is the keyboard layout isn't the same. The @ is where the " should be & same for #. But I think that's a settings issue maybe!

OK, just to fill anyone in in case they want to know. I have tried Katkiss 4.4.4 & gapps caused problems + it was slow & some apps I wanted wouldn't work correctly due to the age of the android version.

Katkiss 6.01 is brilliant if you don't install gapps, with it, its a cluster****.

I've just installed KatKiss 5.1.1 with gapps & it appears to be stable. A tad slow at times but once you've installed all the apps you need, the speed improves.

However, I discovered if you flash 5.1.1 with gapps at the same time, it just wont work. But if you flash 5.1.1 with the Super User file first, reboot into the OS. Then shut down & load back into twrp & flash only gapps, it loads & optimises the apps as well. It feels much quicker than gapps in 6.01 & 4.4.4. Its been running for about an hour & no random reboots yet.

I do stress, before you flash, do an advance wipe of all the top 5 directories, then a format. Reboot into twrp & then install, if you don't, it causes issue's.

Its not amazing, but it allows me to use facebook, youtube & brows the news when I'm in Costa enjoying a hot drink, which beats my S10E all day long.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] buddie024:
No gapps is definitely the way to go. I have been using it for 2 months and I haven't gotten a bootloop. I have noticed that the wifi can act a little funny at times though. Have you guys experienced this?

Still using mine but without Google Apps.

Don't need them on this tablet so it's still good.

Right now I'm using it as a media center for Netflix, Plex, etc.

Anyone knows if we can install magisk on katkiss 6? Hbo won't work because of root.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] forcedv:
I'd like to use this Tf101 Katkiss as a media player but it will not play 720p or above smoothly.

What apps do you use?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jesuita:
Netflix works, it render the possible resolution for the tablet.

For plex I have it configured to transcode to 480p.

Now and them I use VLC, again 480p only.

That's not going to work for my needs as I wanted to be able to plug in a USB stick with Mkv's...

Looking to give away TF101 dock

Hello,

I really benefited from this forum and was able to root my device after I bought it lightly used in 2011 or 2012 and used it until 2017 or so. As far as I can tell, my TF101 dock still charges and holds a charge. Since the tablet itself doesn't start, I cannot test any more whether the dock is working. I do not have the original packaging.

I noticed that the TF101 tablet screen was starting to go out and that I had to be very careful about setting the right level of illumination of the screen lest it go to black suddenly and I would have to reboot it to see the screen again. The tablet suddenly died and I put it away to try to fix on a rainy day. That day didn't happen, but I'd gladly donate the tablet as well for parts.

So I am looking to mail the dock, an off-brand charger that plugs directly into an outlet, and, if someone would like it, the dead tablet which may have some useful parts.

No one is selling the device on Swappa as far as I know.

If you are interested, send me a message or direct me to the right forum in which I can "give back" to the XDA community by donating this appropriately. I can e-waste the tablet itself in my area if its parts would not be useful to anyone on this forum.

All the best,

Ireadthemanual
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Isaac Brumby:
How do you install a custom recovery on TF101?

I have tried and tried to flash that ROM onto this tablet, and no luck at all.

The fact is, I can't install a custom recovery, because every time I try to download the TWRP recovery it downloads twrp.blob, instead of twrp.img, can you give me any suggestions?

How did you do it?

Use this 1 click tool, run the .bat file and follow the instructions. Do this on the stock firmware and you will get TWRP as well as SuperUser root. After that you can flash all you want.

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] JamieSD22:
I've got myself a Samsung A70. and after researching for ages how to do a screen shot or what ever the new name for it is.

I find out how to do this, you have to hold the power button then press the volume button, which then turns the volume up, 2nd attempt turns the volume down, 3rd attempt you try move your hands differently and you get a screen shot, of a different page you accidentally clicked on whilst trying to screen shot, then next attempt, I think I've got it, NO I don't want to turn the phone off, grrr. But eventually when you do get a screen shot, it has the volume change across the top.

Does anyone know how to alter the screen shot to the normal power button, the the central button on the bottom?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] gaplayer26:
Mine doesn't work that way:

I press and hold the power button (no more than a 1 /2 second - you don't want the phone to display the power/restart options) then almost immediately press the VOLUME DOWN key for a 1/2 of a second at most (still holding the power button) and release the volume DOWN button - screenshot should be taken (screen shrinks/comes back). Release all buttons now of course. :)

Hope it works, let all know if it does.

:good:
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] SniperLolz:
You put your whole thumb on the power button and the vol down button and you click both of them at the same time.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] Sunspark:
Easier to click the buttons than swipe your hand across the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] ashyx:
Yep that's practically how every Samsung device works, infact every device I've owned, so it seems the issue is simply pilot error.

You can even do the same thing in TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] JamieSD22:
What is TWRP.

I've had loads of other Samsung's phones been the power button and the main enter button on the bottom.

I've tried doing one first then the other and I get the power turn off option.

But them both with my thumb seems to work most of the time, cheers for that. I think the phone case I have causes me some problems, but both with my thumb seems to work for the last few mins that I've tried thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] gaplayer26:
You could always turn to the dark side and say "Hey Google, take a screenshot" LOL
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] James.Miller:
Just press and hold both at the same time. If you are finding that awkward using your right thumb then use your index and middle finger on your left hand.

Before I begin, I'd like to say that I absolutely love this site. When I purchased the Tilt from AT&T, I had no idea that I would be able to mod it in this many ways, making me extremely happy that I didn't get an iPhone after all.

With that said, I have a ton of unused bandwidth on my hosting, and I would be more than happy to host ROM's for the developers here. Hopefully this can save a few of us from having to purchase RapidShare accounts.

How do you make the photos and Music settings to always look at the SD card path? right now photos are blank and I have to pic folders and go to the SD folders manually.

thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
This has been a topic discussed several times. It has to do with the chome.dll file stored in the /windows directory. For some reason it only maps to the /my documents/my pictures and the storage card/pictures folders (called storage card/DCIM). So the only work around, although a poor one, is to create a folder in the main root of your storage called "pictures" ( and not "my pictures") . Then place your pics there and they will show up on the sliding panel on your home screen. You will also be able to acces them from there. The only thing this will not do is send all of the pics you've taken from your camera to that directory. It will still put them in /storage card/my pictures (assuming you are using your storage card for puting your photos to) so you will still have to manually move those pics to the /storage card/pictures directory when you finish taking the pics.
