[ROM]★[TF701 LP 5.1.1][ZOMBi-POP OMNI KANG RC1][AUG 29]★

[sbdags]

YOU MUST BE ON THE ASUS STOCK KK 4.4.2 BOOTLOADER VERSION 11.4.1.27+ AND TWRP 2.8.6.3+ BEFORE FLASHING THIS ROM. SEE UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW IF YOU ARE UNSURE

I will do the download post tomorrow but it will be available in the download tab of this thread in about 10 minutes

Enjoy!

Thank you for this ROM!

Before I attempt to install it, I have a question: will the Aroma installer allow me to avoid installing most of the Google apps? Ideally, I'd like the ROM to be installed with no more apps than I would get with a "micro" or even "pico" version of gapps.

[lj50036]

Forgive me if I'm overlooking something obvious, but I don't see a "download" tab. Is it on a different web page, perhaps?

Top of the page in the black bar ....

Says 'Downloads'

Thx Josh

• Aroma gets stuck sometimes - hit volume up if so to force it to continue

Aroma got stuck for me on the screen for selecting experimental features, but hitting volume up had no effect. It remained stuck.

No other key interactions worked, either, except to reboot.

Any ideas?

Well, I redid the entire flash procedure, and this time, it worked.

+1. Ok now.

 

[doom_71]

Took the beta 1 and 2 from androidfilehost (just need to know where to look ). It also happend to me that the installation would sometimes hang or even reboot the recovery (TWRP). With beta 2 i needed three tries. For the rest: very good as always!!

 

[ariadnejro]

I think that omni roms don't allow immersive mode like cm does. In CM 12.1 I hide the navigation bar to get some extra screen space and I control the tablet via LMT pie menus and gestures. Is there a way to do the same in omni?

Yes Aroma is a bit dodgy on the device - sometimes it hard locks and all you can do is try again - however this was here before we had touch. Not much I can do about it. The latest aroma builds don't even support our device so we are stuck for now.

As for CM12 stuff - nope it's omni but it soes have omni switch which will eventually allow full screen - but you never know what will be developed in the future. It is kept light for a reason - so it is fast and smooth.

 

[toolmanz]

The ROM is running very fast and all seems good except for 1 program I like.

I have a very robust infrastructure in the house and I use an app call SmartWIFIAnalyser.

It will automatically switch to the best WIFI signal as I move around the house.

When I start it - the tablet barfs and returns to the bootup screen (wavy lines) - once it returns from losing its mind, it will slowly get back to normal.

This isn't a deal killer - but it works on Zombie-Pop on my TF700 ??

I tried to grab a logcat and I have provided a link to it .... hope I did this right!

Seems to be a failure with the renderer. Can you reinstall the ROM but don't install the GPU tweaks on the tweaks page and try again for me please.

Thanks!

Bingo! It now works but once I enable it and come back out to the home screen it is super small on large screen. There has been some other weirdness with the screen like the drawer shows really large icons (2 to a page ??? ). But nothing I can't handle - ESC out of the screen and go right back in and its working.

Cheers and thanks for another great ROM!

Can't seem to get it to do that again ..... Now when I come back to the home page its blank. Hit ESC a couple of times and it comes back normal. ???

Maybe same problem - with different symptoms ... ?

I will gab screen shots if it happens again.

Cheers

Ok. Went into the store and found there was an update to the launcher I use - KK Launcher Prime. I did the update and came back to the home screen - normal.

When I went into the drawer it did it again and have attached the screen shots. They are really faint but you can see 3 icons only. Esc back out and go back in and it's working ???

Thinking maybe its the launcher at fault

Well I am using 500 Firepaper now and it still does it. Go figure. It must be the launcher. ?
