The only difference between 5.2 and 5.2a is the modules used for thatv4. So if you don't use that kernel you don't need to redownload.

17/11/2013 CROMi-X v5.2a Full ROM
oFixed rebooting issue when flashing _thatv4 kernel (v5.2a)

Apologies to anyone who suffered rebooting due to this. Quick fix, reflash 5.2 with any other kernel, then download 5.2a and reflash with thatv4.

:angel:

5.2a booted just fine with thatv4. Thanks for the quick fix.

OK I FOUND THE ISSUE WITH REBOOTING ON THATv4 KERNEL. I'll repost roms now - 5.2a will fix it.

Sorry about that - used thatv6 modules for all that's kernels and they are not compatible.

:(

Confirming a dirty flash is fine with your ROM mate?

Also still had some issues after moving to ASUS keyboard to remove word prediction while docking. Kill app using gravity longpress back button option killed ASUS keyboard instead of recent app. One user suggested it was because killapp kills recent app not foreground app. However in line with your thinking, tried some different keyboard options and problem solved with Google keyboard. BTW I forever use word prediction on other devices but was annoying in dock mode.

Finally you guys really are helpful and as the developer your knowledgeable input is sincerely appreciated. Honestly thought I might have made a mistake coming to the T700; wasn't too happy with the change from Nexus 7. Interface seemed clunky, mods limited and OS slow. Your ROM has changed all that. Great work!

Many thanks to all especially sbdags. Finally got 5.2a up amd running on rom2sd with that's kernel (hunds was only one working for me until I repartitioned the SD card!;)

Anyway, here are a few things I learned along the way.

1) you must use gparted for partitioning. Other methods may work, but not properly.

2) if you use gparted, you must install through PC bios. Using the windows box method will not show your SD card.

3) install rom twice! Once with Rom2sd compatibility, dont reboot-but immediately install again (with sdcard in) with rom2sd checked.

4) stay away from advanced options. Fsync stuff. Leave alone.

Thanks again

Hi

I installed v5.2a + _that v6 20 minutes ago and while my microSDCard is fine within twrp, it's not mounted and not visible in android.
I put the card out and in but no mount.

Hi all,
Dirty flashed the 5.1.2 and its stuck on finishing boot. I can get into recovery no probs but is there a way to get the new ROM on my SDcard if I cant boot into my tablet.

Is there any way to stop the auto-updating of apps every time the tablet is turned on? I thought I had it all turned off in settings, but it's still updating every app when it's turned on from sleep.

5.2a does not seems to support Rom2SD?

It does. Follow these tips mentioned a page ago.

You'll need to provide more info than that but please flash 5.2a. If it happens again post the version and options plus a logcat over adb from a PC please.

I changed the script so you should only need to install once but you do need a working copy of cromi-x or minic on internal.

Good Morning all, I am a little confused as to what to do.
I like the concept of moving the ROM to SD using ROM2SD, but not sure of the advantage to me of having 2 roms available either if the SD card is in, or not.
It strikes me that this just uses more space (2 roms installed). I have been happily using 1 rom and don't think I need to switch between 2.

Is it more advantageous to use Data2SD instead then. The reason I ask is that the OP states that with fsync off there is little point using data2sd as no significant advantage.

Does a rom run differently/faster/smoother using ROM2SD than off internal ram?

Sorry for confusing question, but I am a little bit in a pickle as to what it all means, which probably means just leave alone and just keep rom on internal lol

I just hope to minimise lag etc and trying to understand what option does this.

    [ROM]★★[JB 4.2.1][CROMi-X 5.4][DATA2SD/ROM2SD | ODEX/DEODEX 10.6.1.27.5][FEB 22]★★

    TF700 USERS: YOU MUST BE ON THE ASUS STOCK JB 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER VERSION 10.6.1.14.x AND TWRP 2.5.0.0+ BEFORE FLASHING THIS ROM. SEE UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW IF YOU ARE UNSURE

    If you have a different ASUS tablet, please look at this thread to see if there is a compatible version of this ROM.

    I recommend you do a full wipe if coming from another ROM. Choose Wipe – Factory in TWRP. Do not do a full wipe from the bootloader.

    You can restore data from Titanium Backups but please do not restore system data or apps from a previous version or another ROM if you want a nice clean smooth upgrade experience.

    Don't forget to do a Nandroid Backup first and give the ROM 10 mins to stabilise!

    UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS
    Start by choosing the scenario below which reflects how your tablet is currently configured.

    Scenario One


    Factory Stock Android Operating System & Bootloader (Asus 10.6.1.x)

    Steps

    1. If you haven’t yet, unlock and root your TF700 by following these instructions.

    2. Install the latest version of Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) - TWRP XDA Thread

    Download and install the Scott's TF700T Recovery Install Tool. Once downloaded, extract the files on your Windows PC, connect your tablet to the computer and run the Recovery Install Tool.bat file.

    3. Skip Scenario Two and Jump to the Installing CROMi-X section.

    Scenario Two

    Custom recovery such as TWRP or Clockworkmod installed with a Custom ROM package

    Steps

    1. Update your bootloader to the latest one for your device by flashing from your existing custom recovery and then choose reboot from the menu.
    Please don't flash these at the same time as a ROM package as the latter will cancel the bootloader/TWRP flash.

    IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 1 MINUTE TO MOVE THE BLUE BAR TO FULL. DON'T PANIC AND DON'T INTERRUPT IT!


    After the blue bar fills your device will reboot back into your normal ROM but you will be on the new bootloader and have TWRP installed



    2. Next Step, please go to the Installing CROMi-X section.


    Scenario Three

    I'm upgrading from CROMi-X 4.x.

    Steps

    1. Congratulations. Jump directly to the Installing CROMi-X section.



    INSTALLING CROMi-X
    If you followed the appropriate steps for your scenario above, you now have a compatible bootloader installed and a custom recovery such as TWRP.

    Steps

    1. Download the appropriate ROM package below and save to your internal or external SD Card. Do not unzip the file. Join the debate about which manner of packaging files is better (ODEX or DEODEX) or just use DEODEX since it allows for a bit more customization possibilities. ODEX may boot slightly faster but then again, it may only boot slightly faster the first time. Google ODEX vs DEODEX if you really want to understand.

    About Fsync

    Explanation by _that:

    About the Experimental Features

    During the install some features are listed as EXPERIMENTAL. I have left them as an option so you can play and enjoy debugging :) Please let me know if you used the experimental features like Extreme Tweaks, Cache2SD, Overvolting, Undervolting. if you want a stable smooth experience flash _that's kernel, with fsync disabled and one of the normal WW or US editions.

    If you are a speed freak and don't mind the odd bug go for hunds with experimental tweaks, software rendering disabled and GPU OC, CPU OV and GPU UV.

    Cache2SD is very experimental and may cause other issues so I'll leave that one up to you :)

    Various Kernel Benchmarks

    Right benchmarks with various kernel options:

    All were taken on CROMi-X 5.1 Odex with default options at 240dpi unless otherwise stated (fsync off / on). I've used quadrant as most people understand the results - I know it's not the best and I did 3 tests each time and took the 3rd result.

    Stock - fsync on - 5672
    36lLrlI.jpg


    _that v4 - fsync off - 5981
    EZW240w.jpg


    _that v4 - fsync on + data2sd - 5745

    Hunds - fsync off - 6805
    Lul8QTl.jpg


    Hunds - fsync on +data2sd - 6597
    TqPlv18.jpg


    So data2sd doesn't really offer that much if you keep fsync on. It does feel faster when loading large games and files. The issue is it is a bit more unstable and easier to corrupt the data partition if you have fsync off. Same risk with normal data I suppose but less likely to corrupt due to less sponteneous reboots.

    Is data2sd worth it? Only if you want to use your tablet whilst downloading large files or play store updates or you are prone to corruption with fsync off. Otherwise you can achieve at least the same speed with fsync off although with a risk to corrupt your data partition eventually.

    ==================================================================================================

    Using GParted to setup a micro SD for ROM2SD support

    First and foremost - DO NOT USE MINI TOOL!

    Formatting a micro sd card for ROM2SD

    We will be using a GParted Live boot USB and a FAST good quality micro sd like a Sandisk or Samsung Class 10 - SDHC/SDXC UHS-1 card with read speed of at least 20MB/S. If you have a cheap chinese eBay card don't bother - they are not good enough.

    You will also need a USB Stick with at least 1GB size. Note this process formats the USB disk so don't keep any important files on it. It will also wipe your micro sd so make sure you are prepared.

    1. Go to the link below and download the GParted Live CD/USB/HD/PXE Bootable Image and save it somewhere you remember
    http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php
    2. Download Linux Live USB Creator and install it
    http://www.linuxliveusb.com/

    3. Fire up LiLi USB Creator:
    a. Choose your USB key - I,e, the drive letter for your USB (not sd card)
    b. Choose your GParted iso image for the source
    c. Choose the check box to Format Key in FAT32 and hide files
    d. Click the lightning bolt to create
    OZHOmQn.png

    4. Now you have a bootable disk you need to boot from it. You may need to alter you BIOS Settings on your PC to boot from a USB Stick but mine did it without messing.
    5. Insert your micro SD card into an SD Card adapter and insert into PC
    6. Boot into GParted ;)
    3FFqWmn.png

    7. Choose Gparted Live <Enter>
    8. Don’t touch keymap <Enter>
    9. Languge <Enter>
    10. Start Gparted Automatically
    11. Change device to your micro sd )it will default to you hard disk - hda– mine is /dev/sdc

    gsiR9qR.png


    12. Delete all existing partitions

    For a 64GB card: (resize as needed but /system doesn't need to be bigger than 1GB)
    13. Create new, always select primary: do this 3 times.
    14. FAT 32 : Size 16GB – this will be /dev/sdc1 in gparted and will be your sdcard for storage in Android
    15. EXT4 : Size 42GB – this will be /dev/sdc2 in gparted and will be your /data partition in Android
    16. EXT4 : Size 1GB – this will be /dev/sdc3 in gparted and will be your /system partition in Android

    eXFznzI.png


    Apply, wait until it finishes and then reboot. Remember to remove the usb stick ;)

    *Images stolen from elsewhere as I couldn’t get it to save mine :(

    Now you are ready to install ROM2SD. Note if you want to use DATA2SD then only do 2 partitions 1x FAT32 and 1x larger EXT4

    Then reinstall CROMi-X but this time choose the ROM2SD option (currently option 3 on the kernel page)
