Yes rom supports DPI scaling in the build.prop and RES and DPI scaling from the wm command. Currently the build.prop method is built into the installer. The RES + DPI combinations will also be added at a later date

OK Since I said I was having some issues, after troubleshooting it and figuring what one of my causes was I came to a conclusion. So here is the issue:
Firefox seems to constantly hang when loading web pages, never did this before till I loaded ROM (yes I did do wipe/factory reset).
T/S Results:
The Cache2RAM is causing this. Once I applied the script it was causing my Firefox to hang. I did check script and it was set to 100m so I adjusted it higher and doesn't seem to clear up. I prefer Firefox over Browser, Chrome or Dolphin due to fact it has AdBlock Plus on it. All the others do not. So for now going to remove the script and keep trucking on.

Yes it is possible that the browser2ram script is causing the firefox issues. If anyone else can confirm it then I will remove the firefox bits from that script as it seriously boosts other browsers. The whole script is optional anyway in the installer so you can choose not to use it as well
It could be that B2R doesn't bring the advantages that other Asus devices see from it.
Working on a patch right now to fix up a few things - I'll include this as well
after reading the tf701 unlock method, it mentions that theres an issue with external sd card mounting, can anyone confirm?? i just bought a 64gb card with my tf701 and id hate to lose the ability to mount to it
The card mounts fine mate for every day use. What doesn't work is CWM doesn't currently see the external card. That is a known issue.
do we have to use cwm or once im rooted and have this installed could we install twrp via rom manager? i like to store my nandroid backups on the sd to save room for apps.

This is a small 11MB patch that will upgrade CROMi-X 6.0b2 so make sure you have that installed first Just flash this from CWM. CWM warns that root might be missing on a reboot - this is a bug in CWM you can safely ignore it and say no.

o Fixed Adobe Flash not working
o Updated Google Play Services to latest version

o Removed Smart Dimmer enabled and aggressiveness for all profiles except power saving
o Added Force GPU to build.prop
o Tweaked init.d script to have better memory mgmt and read ahead caching
Benchmarks of this build
Note I am also testing the phab7 xposed module that angrydinosaur provided which gives us proper TAB UI back It's posted earlier in the thread if you want it

Hmm I flashed it many times with no issues. Can you save the recovery.log from cwm or open it inside cwm and tell me which file is failing please.
Also try flashing it after the first boot. It could be the power profiles aren't generated until the kernel has installed for the first time. That is my guess.

Actually after your post I did some more testing without browser to ram and I'm now convinced it's not really needed. The device internal emmc appears to be more than fast enough. As a test I just doubled the responsiveness of the touch screen and now browser scrolling really flies when you flinging your finger! Something for beta 4. Thanks! :good:
Glad I was of some use, this does seem much faster I/O than the TF700, at least Asus stepped up their game when they made this.
Hey guys! I've been trying to install this ROM on my TF701 but I haven't been able to install a recovery.
I did root my tablet successfully, however, something seems to prevent the CWM recovery from being installed: When I fastboot into bootloader and flash the recovery image the terminal window on my ubuntu machine states that the progress is finished (yet this progress seems to be much too fast for me, at least I am used to much longer flashing times on my galaxy S3??) but it doesn't happen anything on the tablet. Neither is there any text nor does it reboot.
When I'm in bootloader and choose "RCK" it says that it's opening the kernel image but it only gets stuck there and I have to reboot the tablet. I'm on WW_epad-10.26.1.7-20131108 and also tried to update to .18 with the SDUpdate file but that didn't work either.
Any ideas?
Cheers

well first install latest firmware from asus before installing recovery
recovery here http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3223
then put roms you want in the internal storage
and this rom flash B2 first, reboot and then back to recovery then flash B3 Patch
Which CWM version did you flash? You have to be on the .18 bootloader before you flash CWM 6.0.4.6!
I'm afraid it seems you may have flashed an incompatible recovery for your BL and now the tablet doesn't boot into recovery at all....
The SDupdate method for the firmware would only work if you still had the stock recovery. Or you can flash it in CWM, but it seems you have neither option?
Can't remember right now which CWM version is compatible with the .7 BL and I have to leave...
Find the correct CWM version, flash it in fastboot and pray that it works!
After that you could flash the stock firmware in CWM to get to the correct bootloader, flash CWM 6.0.4.6 and flash this rom.
Thanks a lot for your help, mate! I've been able to flash the CWM v6.0.4.5 from here which seems to work (so far).
I am not sure how to flash the firmware in CWM, and since I've already done such a stupid mistake I don't want to try it on my own again.
Is it correct to download the WW_epaduser_10_26_1_18_UpdateLauncher.zip from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554930 or do I need another file? I suppose this ZIP file must not be flashed directly CWM, so do I have to unzip it first?
Thank you for your kind help!

Good man! Glad it worked!
Personally I would not download the Asus firmware from a secondary site if it's available on the Asus/support/downloads website. Each download/upload is a slight increase in the risk of getting a corrupt file - why bother?
And yes, you download the UpdateLauncher.zip, extract it once and flash the resulting zip in CWM.
Flashing the full firmware will replace CWM with the stock recovery, so you have to flash CWM 6.0.4.6 afterwards.
