Most of my lockups happen while using mxplaye. Funny enough, I also get hardlocks while using Splashtop THD...has happened since I switched to using the rom with Motley kernel.

What is in this PM I wonder, and why did a lot of other devs get a post about a pm? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... :D

---------- Post added at 09:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 PM ----------



Most likely because Motleys v3.0.x kernel was included instead of the old 2.x version (not Linux kernel version, mind you) and he re-added a few tweaks he missed in converting to the new firmware base.

just asking advice about something. :)

I think Wook would agree that Beats is pretty much a gimmick. He has included DSP Manager in his ROMs, which will give you better sound. Or just get another EQ from the Playstore.

pretty sure it's a gimmick too...the "Beats" are all about the headphones....if you have a Beats kernel with garbage headphones it's sound like sh*t...beats headphones will provide the best Beats experience....

The best Beats experience is still crap. They sound muffled and flabby. Just use a decent EQ and dial your sound in.

Yep Beats is overated. Its not about the headphones and its not special hardware either. The Beats headphone trigger a process when plugged in the activates a sound profile so looking like the some awesome, special piece of equipment where they are not really. This was proved on the Sensation & Sensation XE where they modded it so normal headphones would trigger the process that the Beats ones did and both sounded exactly the same.

Hope this clears it up and NO I wont be including it as DSP is far superior.

Hello everyone and happy fathers day!
First let me say that the ROM is fast and smooth and i appreciate all the work the dev's do on XDA (especially the ones working with my devices :)). Now Mr.Wook First i am a noob so i'm not sure how to do a lot. I think i have the flashing ROMs down and i can use ADB, and that's about all my base knowledge if you need to know to help me.

i'm running Asus prime, balanced mode , with v1.32 wook, i did a fresh install using cwm and i cleared tablet before hand with prime full wipe.

I tried to watch a rip of my DVD John carter yesterday and it took me about three hours because every 10min or so it would just stop and take me to MX player menu screen. i tried SW and HW neither helped. Also this morning the browser would not stay open. There was no force close or "not responding" message it just kicked me to the home screen.

Sorry this is long but i'm not sure how much information you need. I'm going to flash the newest update to see if it fixes it but wanted to ask if anyone thinks the prime full wipe could be a culprit. I love the ROM just not sure i can use it without being able to watch moves or use browser. Any help will me appreciated.

Have you tried a different video player like stock or maybe something like DicePlayer? What about a different video.
Did you reboot and see if that fixed the issue with the video and MxPlayer?

Sometimes the flash can corrupt something so reflashing the build you are on after wiping cache/dalvik cache/factory reset/system or doing those wipes and flashing the new version will clear it up with no explanation at all.

Did you restore apps from titanium backup or go through the play store and restore from there?
If you restored from titanium try reinstalling everything from the play store.

Before you reflash I would try to clear cache/dalvik cache before and see if that helps.

I always try to do everything I can before I reflash the ROM to try and save me time.

Hope this helps.

Flat Black Theme

Not sure if anyone is interested, but here is a partial theme modified for the .28 systemui.apk. I didnt create it, just used the theme from this thread, and threw the pngs into the .28 systemui.apk that was used in wooks rom. The OP hasn't updated his to .28 yet. Just thought I'd share. It primarily gets rid of the blue/purple in the quick settings.

loaded AndroWook Prime v1.34 WW28 Motley Kernel v3.0.4b with USB Mount Fix

works great - connects USB - and performs fantastic

Got #50 in antutu - so that is good enough for me.

Very smooth & fluid

Thanks to everyone for all the hard work on this combo !

So I wiped cashed and delvic and Mx player still not working right, nor stock using dice player however plays video just fine. So I'll be using it instead. The browser is working better since reboot but their is still one website kicking me to home screen, its a google search for vets in my area in a google review page, but since I can't duplicate on other sites I can live with it. I'm still thinking of flashing the newest version but since this one is working better now I might give it sometime to see if it will settle down and fix these minor problems. Also I don't use titanium so all apps are from store.

    READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY. THIS IS NOT JUST FLASHING ANOTHER ROM

    disclaimer.png
    This Rom has been tested by many people but if you do not follow the instructions correctly or then go on to flash an incompatible TWRP you can brick yourself.

    DO NOT INSTALL ANY OTHER RECOVERY WHILE USING THE NEW 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER, THEY ARE NOT COMPATIBLE AT THE MOMENT, THE ONE BUILT IN IS MODDED. USE THE DOWNGRADE ZIP TO TAKE YOU BACK TO 4.1.1 BOOTLOADER AND RECOVERY IF YOU NEED IT.

    By downloading and installing the below you are in agreement that you understand the risk associated with doing this which in a worse case scenario could result in a bricked Transformer Prime. Therefore we are not responsible or liable for any issues you encounter although we will do our best to TRY to help you resolve them.

    Thank you.

    • Battery above 20 percent.
    • An Unlocked Transformer Prime with a custom recovery.
    • A Micro SD to copy install files to as the Internal Storage will be wiped during install.
    • All valuable files removed from your Transformer Prime.
    • The files from the Download section below.
    • NVflash installed if you want to go back to any other ROM not built on official JB. This is more a recommendation rather than a requirement and ROM will install without NVflash just fine.
    • ....and finally the ability to read. Honestly this is this biggest mistake people make is they do not read things correctly so read, read and READ again just to be sure.

    install220.png

    NOTE** You MUST be on the new 4.2.1 bootloader to be able to flash this new version which is available in the next section.**

    • If you are already on HairyBean 2.xx you do not need to flash the "Upgrade Hairybean 4.2.1 Bootloader & Recovery.zip" again.
    • TF700 Owners. Do not flash "Upgrade Hairybean 4.2.1 Bootloader & Recovery.zip". Make sure you are already on 4.2.1 Bootloader and have TWRP working and just flash the rom.
    • Download "Hairybean 2.2.zip" and "Upgrade Hairybean 4.2.1 Bootloader & Recovery.zip" from the links below and copy to Micro SD.
    • Boot into recovery and flash "Upgrade Hairybean 4.2.1 Bootloader & Recovery.zip" from Micro SD card.
    • Click restart after completion and on restart LET THE BLUE LINE FILL ALL THE WAY, WHEN IT IS FINISHED IT WILL RESTART ITSELF BACK INTO TWRP.
    • Go to wipe options and do a factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik, wipe system and finally format data.
    • Go to Install options and flash "Hairybean 2.2.zip" from Micro SD card.
    • When install is completed restart and allow 30-60 mins for the system to cache itself and then restart again upon which time you should now have a nice smooth TP.
    • Enjoy!

    • Boot into recovery and if you are doing a dirty flash then just wipe cache and dalvik cache and if doing a clean flash then select factory reset as well. You can wipe system as well if you want a total deep clean but do so at your own risk.
    • Select to install ROM from SD and follow on screen prompts. NOTE** If selecting Data2SD kernel you MUST ensure you SD is formatted with FAT32 as the first partition and EXT4 as the second partition.

    Hey Guys............

    Its been a few days since I made the decision to knock this on the head to spend more time with my family and not being stuck infront of my laptop every night has been great even though it has only been a few days.

    That being said after speaking with family and friends I do wander if I somewhat jumped the gun and was being hot headed with cancelling AndroWook so with that being said I am going to remove the discontinued status from the ROM and start provide new versions again.

    What I MUST, MUST state though is updates will be in NO way as frequent as they were as my family is still my top priority and I will only be able to work on this as and when I can and can not commit as much time in one session as previously.

    Thank you all for the kind words and I do have a new version of AndroWook that I had built and was testing prior to calling time on things and Charliestheman and Lostsorrow have been testing it for the past few days and have said that it is superb so I will get this out in a few days when I have time.

    Just to reiterate updates will not be as frequent as before as family/home life takes priority and I will work on this as and when I have time.

    I hope this is all ok with everyone.

    :D:eek:
    31
    Wookie, come back from the dark side mate, your missed.

    Hope everything is ok with you. :)

    LOL Thanks.

    As you are all aware I've made no secret of the fact that I have had health issues recently and because of that coupled with stresses from work and home it has made me make quite a few rash decisions including walking away from AndroWook a couple of times which I'm sure has pissed off more than a few people..........to those people I truly apologize.

    I'm happy to say I am now (fingers crossed) on the mend good and proper and can now see how rash I have been so have decided to come out of retirement one final time to work with the rest of the fellas and, hopefully, give you the best ROM possible available.

    Apologize once again for any one I have annoyed with the on, off and on again roller coaster ride but hopefully you can kinda understand.

    Thank you all for using AndroWook and for giving an old fool another chance.

    Cheers

    Ed
