"*Note - You will need to re-flash G-Apps after you flash an updated nightly build. You can do this before you reboot after the installation of a new nightly.
Also note that if you are coming from an earlier G-Apps package you will need to wipe prior to installation of this package in order to avoid FC issues.

This doesn't specify how to flash new Nightlies... Can we just wipe caches then flash rom/gapps when upgrading to new nightly (similar to CM9), or do we have to wipe each time?

Thanks for the Rom! So far I like what I see!

Pardon my noob question, but where does one find system files with Root Explorer?

When you open the app, besides the root explorer logo up top make sure there is nothing except for "/". If that's not the case press the back button until it is.

Then scroll down until you find system select that then select app.

Make sure it's mounted as r/w (read/write)

That's a phone screen shot but it looks the same

I've some questions:

1) did anyone make an antutu benchmark?
2) how's the compatibility with gameloft games?

I wouldn't even bother wiping the caches unless flashing from a different aosp rom (cm9,aokp,...)

I just tried flashing the newest version over the first nightly (cleared cache & dalvik, fixed permissions), and when rebooting it just sat at the initial EeePad splash screen - no Team Eos boot animation. I reflashed the original and all is well again.

Do I need to give it extra long to boot after flashing a new nightly? I I will re download and try again, but want to be sure I'm not doing something wrong.

Maybe try re downloading ? I flashed it last night and don't remember it taking especially long.

So FWIW, I am running the Cornerstone nightly and also was able to get Titanium Backup working by following these steps:

1. Start the tablet
2. Go to Cornerstone Settings and turn off load at startup
3. Restart the tablet
4. Open Root Explorer
5. Open /system/app and make directory R/W
6. Delete /system/app/Titanium Backup.apk
7. Go to store and reinstall TiBu

Then when I reopened TiBu was able to use it to restore my apps and settings from before.

And BTW...the ROM rocks

Gents quick question, hows the web browsing on this rom? Does it have the laggyness of the stock roms?

(Roach love your work from the tf101 rom)

web browsing seems fast....but that may be because I have two other windows to do things in while I am waiting for the browser to load!

Tried it for a few but switched back to aokp because tb batch wasn't working. I'll wait a couple nights and try it again thanks to the guy who posted how to get it to work. What I'm slightly dissapointed about is that while watching a movie in the big windows (cornerstone version), if you click on one of the smaller windows say for web browsing, the movie in the big windows pauses. So effectivly you can't watch a movie and do other things at the same time. :(

With StickIt, the floating and resizeable media player, you can. Same with Overskreen floating browser. Made by same people. I could have two or more movies playing at once on Prime, OverSkreen browser surfing the web running all at the same time while still doing other things like checking email, Facebook, etc.. movie never pauses or anything. No lag at all wwhile doing all this on prime.

Thanks. I'm aware, and even have bought the apps. I was hoping to be able to do it natively using cornerstone though. Stickit is great for .mp4's, but for me playing avi's with it results in extremely poor quality. (sorry if to far off topic)

I can vouch for this process working just fine. I'm really digging the ROM, except that the dock battery level does not show, and the cursor is the floating circle instead of the pointer. There are occasional glitches, but overall, it's great.

Have you tried mxplayer? On the tf101 rom with cornerstone it worked and it didnt stop the video if you use the other windows.

    Team EOS​
    ICS 4.0.4 TF201​
    NIGHTLIES​

    Welcome to the evolution of TiamatXOOM.

    With the AOSP release of Android 4.0 begins the next dawn of the Android operating system. And with this release comes Team EOS, the natural evolution of the TiamatXOOM development team.

    It is the goal of Team EOS to develop and maintain the highest performing and most stable AOSP based rom for an array of platforms. The launching point for this development effort is the Motorola XOOM.

    For the latest news on Team EOS Xoom releases make sure you follow @teameos on twitter and on IRC on Freenode in #xoom.

    NOTE: Team EOS, it’s members, friends, dogs, cats, and associates are in no way responsible for any loss of data or device functionality. Use this at your own risk!
    --

    A quick note on Nightlies: NIGHTLIES ARE DEVELOPMENT BUILDS. They are automatically generated once every 24 hours and represent the compilation of the latest commits to the code repository. While every effort is made ensure that the commits that are accepted are stable and do not have a negative impact to the overall performance and function of the builds it is not possible to test every aspect of a commits impact to the overall repo prior to it’s inclusion in a given build. As a result it is entirely possible that instabilities may be introduced as a result of a given days commits. That is the nature of the nightly system, and the risk that is taken using the latest code changes to the project.

    EOS is an AOSP based rom. It is developed and maintained by Team EOS and is the culmination of our own in house development efforts.

    Team EOS TF201 Nightly builds: http://goo-inside.me/devs/teameos/roms/nightlies/tf201/

    G-Apps Package
    Because this is an AOSP based rom Google Apps are not included in the base rom. To install Google Apps please flash the following package after installing the base rom:

    Use the latest available gapps package available from http://goo.im/gapps

    *Note - You will need to re-flash G-Apps after you flash an updated nightly build. You can do this before you reboot after the installation of a new nightly.
    Also note that if you are coming from an earlier G-Apps package you will need to wipe prior to installation of this package in order to avoid FC issues.

    Features:
    Because these are nightly builds the included features are constantly evolving. Change logs are generally generated on a daily basis.
    Change logs can be viewed at http://nightlies.teameos.org/changelogs/
    For the most up to date and comprehensive listing of the changes included in this rom please visit http://review.teameos.org

    Installation Notes:
    These builds are designed to be installed from your favorite recovery
    Perform a full wipe (read Factory Reset) prior to installing this over ANY Honeycomb based rom (this includes all Tiamat roms)

    BUGS!
    If you find strange or otherwise unexplained errors please report them here: https://bugs.teameos.org/ Please include logcats and as thorough a description of the issue and what lead up to the issue as possible. With out this we will be unable to track down these errors.

    Please be aware that using reboot to recovery may leave you stuck in a recovery loop with the current versions of clockworkmod recovery.

    I have repacked recoveries available that have a workaround in place here.

    These should suffice until CWM is updated to prevent this loop from happening.

    I'm currently conducting trials to address the poor WiFi performance that some users are experiencing. Please see this post for further details.

    I'm sorry! Is that supposed to be a put down? I find it rather offensive that after I try to share some information and then give some words of encouragement, that you come along and try to put down my information as though it's totally worthless.

    Remind me to remind myself that actually some people here on xda are still very silly and need to learn some simple behavioural techniques that most of us learnt when we were children.

    Of course, the fact that you assumed that the thread was "the ride" only goes to further indicate your obvious misjudgement of my previous post.

    /rant

    EDIT: Sorry to team EOS for putting a bit a negativity into the thread. I just needed to say it.

    I was so hoping it was Didget or DuBaWidget or something equally as nutty...

    As for where EOS stands compared to others? Tough to say, right now it seems like it's not so much like for like comparison but instead having different plusses and minusses to each build. Virtuous is hands down the best stock-like (not that there's much to pick from now, but nontheneless) and acts as an effective yardstick to measure everyhing else. Since it has all the asus tweaks but none of the asus junk bloat, it's a solid benchmarking point.

    AOKP is clearly going for the kitchen sink approach, as evidenced by the fact they now have an APP specifically for backing up ROM settings, yes, there are that many tweaks and bends in the ROM to play with. It's very well put together, but if I was a newbug, I fear the mass of settings might cause me to have a nervous breakdown.

    Gummy is going for what something between Cyanogen and EOS, there's a lot of nice cyanogen like features implemented, and their own homebrew widgets and tools are genuinely top class. However, for non US setups, it's not yet ready for showtime, if I can kill half the Dock android keys simply by changing keyboard languages, there's still some definite funkiness to get worked out.

    Cyanogen was dominant during the 2.x android cycle, and whilst I hate to be seen as a naysayer to all the work done by other teams, longer term Cyanogen is going to be the one to beat. Right now though Cyanogen is having to cover so many devices that more specialised teams have got the jump on them in terms of stability and feature cycle. I wouldn't expect Cyanogen to catch AOKP, Gummy or EOS for a while yet. Cyanogen might be better in some areas, but each of the three I've poked have been stronger than CM in -some- way, just different ways per ROM.

    EOS seem to have got the tablet side of ICS down to a fine art, honestly, were it not for the fact I know this is an AOSP rom I'd have assumed it came with my prime, it's that stable and brisk. I've had it sleeping, waking up, I've done some curveballs with wifi, about to run VLC into it to see what happens, but judging by the fact this build has the GCC revert, that should be dandy. Hunch says they're probably only 1 or 2 builds off of a stable release from here, though that's ignorant user me talking, I could be wrong.

    At this point the only real wildcards are if ASUS provide NVFlash for unlocked devices (since that would allow devs to crack open the inner workings of the device and the teg 3 chipset) and the impending .25 stock release which I've on good authority seriously puts some speed into the stock ROM, meaning things like Virtuous might leapfrog ahead in terms of desirability. Unsure.

    I've not fiddled with any of the other releases here (WSG? I think?) so I lack any opinion on those.

    Just my thoughts at this point :)
