Workin' on it - thanks for the suggestion.

So what's about the build in Browser? Did you try it? I can only confirm what @woekje say. It is a real difference. Try uninstalling all other browsers, the google stuff (like the google app and chrome) and keep the system as clean as you can.

The build-in browser makes all other browsers unnecessary (for me). Thank you @timduru

I also know that running a 'heavy' launcher is not helping either. As much as I love Nova Launcher, I switched back to the stock Tribuchet Launcher and saw a vast increase in performance....

I can't confirm this with Apex launcher (Pro). It's running great. Didn't notice any deterioration in performance.

Try Tint Browser. Very Light and has a handy feature to 'recall last visited site' when you open it.

My main problem was trying to launch a split screen using a webpage and a Word Document at the same time. I found by ditching Nova, it went much, much smoother. Perhaps the PRO version of Apex has something to do with it, or perhaps its just that Apex is better. Either way, I also decided that having 2 (or more) launchers loaded on the tablet was a bit of a waste. Sure it looked nice, but I decided to go for function over form.. :laugh::good:

I tried the built-in and didn't like it. I really need the browser I use to re-open the tabs I have open, if/when it crashes. And I need access - easily - to the history (I tend to bounce around a lot). Opera, not mini, so far has been stellar actually.

BUT ... I'm sure that will change. I've backed up and frozen (via Titanium Pro) all the browsers I've tried fand dismissed - this way before I try ANOTHER, I can see if I have already tried it.

I just don't understand this, I can watch HD videos 2gb in size effortlessly, transfer large files to and from the tab, but the bloody browser gives me problems. If I NEVER used the browser I'd never know there was any problem.

Ok, that was going to be my next "observation". I use an older version of GoLauncherPro (V4.x) and, as I was looking through all the stuff I have, that is one of about 4-5 apps that is on ALL my tabs, Total Commander (I've used this since Norton Commander Dos was abandoned) as I like the access to webdav folders and FTP/LAN Access built-in. I also use MultiWallpaper https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&hl=en

I don't see GoLauncher taking up much resources but I could be wrong, anyone have ideas about this?

Maybe we should have a list of apps that aren't the most friendly and the alternatives, wouldn't be a really terrible idea. Eh?

Thank you for this forum! I was able to flash nougatella for my TF700 the other day. All in all performance is great, just noticed the device getting too hot when using it for a bit. Coming from a complete wipe, the device gets hot faster than the MM build.. Anyways, Thanks and more power! :good:

You can try to set CPU governor to "Ondemand" under Settings->Performance->CPU Gov (don't forget to set it also at boot). but @timduru recomends to find out which app is causing this heat (mostly apps that have a constant i/o behavior like google app, google chrome and so on)

So I followed all of the steps and got it flashed, thanks! My problem is that now the only way the screen works is if it is plugged in and not into the dock, power cord straight in bottom of tablet. It works perfectly fine when plugged in, but as soon as the cable is removed, the screen turns off. I redid the whole process from scratch and still the same thing. I have searched and seen some people have had this issue without a ROM installed, but it seems odd that it just started (4-5yrs after owning it) when I was doing this. I have tried everything I can think of in display settings and developer options to no avail. Any ideas from anyone what might get the screen back to working when it is not plugged in?

Does the screen turns on in recovery without the charger? Do you try another rom? And do you mean only the screen turns off, or the whole tablet is turning off (so that you have to boot it again). Never heard about an odd issue like this.....

Skyjumper_GR · Jun 22, 2017

My bestbexpirience with this ROM:
Clean New installiert (ROM, Gapps, SuperSu)
CPU Min - 475
CPU Max - 1800
CPU governer - ondemand
I/O scheduler - deadline

Format MicroSD (class10) in a PC with two Partition.
1.Partition fat32
2.Partition swap (1000-2000MB)

Install an SwapApp like "Roehsoft Ram-expander.apk"
Use the Swap-Partition in MicroSD for swap.

The Tablet works smooth and without big lags.

Does the ROEHSOFT RAM-EXPANDER app increase the performace noticeable? Because it costs about 10$ and a TF700 user reported, that the app does not make a big difference.

Just another thought...it might be that the battery needs replaced and this ROM just made it show up. I know that's not a happy thought but it could be the problem. Of course you would want to verify this somehow, maybe going back to stock ROM and see if it works properly.

Does it charge to 100%?

Screen turns off, but I can plug back in a few minutes later and it is in the same place. Doesn't die like the battery is dead.

Yes, it charges to 100% and when it is plugged into a port on the laptop, it slowly drains. The strange thing is, without it plugged in, I know it is working fine, just no screen. I can power it up with no power cord in it and a minute later, plug in the cable and it is at the unlock screen. The vibration works when you turn it on. I have seen that others have had this same issue (most were a few years back), but never found anyone that had a solution outside sending it in to Asus under warranty.

So if the screen problem also persist in recovery menu and on other roms, it seems to be a hardware problem...

Tablet turns itself off?

I have installed this rom and it works fine other than something weird - the tablet turns itelf off after a few minutes of inactivity. I have searched xda everywhere for a solution, and looked at everything I can think of in the settings, and can't find why. Have I missed something stupid?

TIA

I have a TF700t. Everything seems to work fine while I'm using it, but once it goes to sleep, it will not wake up. It has to be rebooted every time.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

This seems to be my problem too. I posted about it here:

Does the right mousepad dock button work in remote desktop app in windows? Or does it the same like the left button?

Noticed this, too.... Not always, but sometimes, after long standby time the tablet seems to be off. I can only get it to work by holding the power button, till it boots up again. But the battery is not empty. Maybe @timduru can fix it in a futur update.

I think there is no right button (for windows to open context menus). But the right mouse click is emulated by long press on the dock mouse button.

I am a newby to this - almost. I flashed a new ROM on my Galaxy S2 a couple of years ago but that is about it. Then, I had a very detailed "idiots guide". Is there such a thing for this ROM please? I've looked at the install instructions at the top of this thread and it means pretty much zilch to me.
I've not read every post on these 63 pages but have not yet found what I am looking for.
I am keen to upgrade the ROM for several reasons including that I need to install an App that needs Android 4.4 or above. Also, the tablet is virtually unusable it is that slow.
If anyone knows of a link to how to do this, I am pretty sure I would be able to do this and would be eternally grateful.

This is an outline of what I did to flash mine, maybe it will help you. It is on a different forum though:

Read back a few posts when you get there. The thing to remember is to totally understand what you are going to do before you do it. So don't be worried about asking too many questions. The stupid questions are the ones that don't get asked.
