@timduru have you identified the root cause for the random reboots on the tf101g.

I still have lot of random reboots while tablet is sleeping.

Is there a way I can help ? Really do not want to revert to 4.4.4. Once you go lollipop ....:(
I'm using version 30c. I'm unfortunately also experiencing non stop reboots:crying: These are not random, and not bootloop, but occurs a few minutes after a restart. It actually makes the tablet unusable. Does anyone have suggestions to a solution?

As stated in the install instructions, you need to flash the gapps + supersu everytime with the rom.

@timduru have you identified the root cause for the random reboots on the tf101g.
It's because of kernel differences, tf101g specific kernel that was solving that from 4.4 is too old and won't work as is on LP.
But that's why I don't support the TF101G anymore.
To work around that, you basically need to prevent it to sleep.

If you have a TF101G see above.
If not, what you describe reminds me of the behavior that happens when you don't flash supersu.
did you follow the install instructions, and flash the rom + supersu + gapps
all three together ?

Thanx timduru. I (re)flashed supersu, and it´s now up and running again:D I was sure that I did flash all 3 at the same time.:confused: Supersu did ask for me to update the supersu files, but I never got around to that, and it didn't ask me again. Thanx again for your help and the super work you´re doing:good:

Bonsoir Timduru,

comme il me semble que vous etes francophone, je vous ecris mes remerciements en francais pour ce travail que vous faites avec vos rom que vous mettez a disposition de gens comme moi qui ont une tablette qui date un peu (une TF101) que je suis bien content de pouvoir mettre a jour vers une version d'Android plus recente...
Ca marche plutot bien et j'en suis satisfait donc meme si c'est accessible gratuitement (et je trouve ca bien), je trouve normal de donner quelque chose vu le service rendu donc je vous ai fait un petit don de soutien.

Bonne soiree et merci encore

Please be so kind post in English, as it is an English forum and if you expect any kind of help beside Timduru, then it would be good as well.

MarshMallow

For those who have not noticed yet: [ROM][MM 6.0.1] [ KatKiss - KatshMallow #021 ]
Been busy ;) And the MarshMallow version should now be fully functional and up to speed with this version
faster / smoother too imho :)
It's still a bit fresh so there might still be a few things to iron out, but so far so good on what I use. :)

Only thing is that there's no KatKiss Multiwindow yet in the MM version, only the limited MultiWindow available in MM.
So if it's an important feature for you, you might want to wait until it's implemented back into MM.

Besides that, everything else should be better than Lollipop ;P

Thanks for the excellent support to the Transformed. It's still alive thanks to you!
I have skipped Lollipop because of some lags I keep KK until now, but I'm excited to test MM soon. As you mention for several reasons it should be better then Android 5

When I start flashing, I am getting Status code 7. As I checked on net, suggestion was to remove assert, but I didn't found assert in the updater-script. What should I do?

Thanks Tim, for keeping the TF101 running so well.

One thing that would make the tablet even more useful would be the ability to load a SD card from my camera into the dock while I am on-site, and quickly make some edits (crop, resize, etc) and upload to a web-site in a timely fashion, rather than waiting until I get home, and use my MacBook.

Adobe Lightroom or Snapseed would be perfect for this, but both force close before loading any photos.

My questions are:
1) Are there any tips for getting Lightroom and/or Snapseed to run on the TF101, or is it the chipset that is not supported. Was there a different kernel for games compatibility ? I can't seem to find it now;
2) Are there any similar alternatives to Lightroom or Snapseed that do run OK on the TF101 ?

Thanks

I want to use an android app on my tablet from BKOOL. It is a biketraining program. But the problem is that the app force closes. I use also the docking station with a ANT+ dongle. This dongle works normal with another biketrainer app from Elite.
This are the requirements of the app. Android: Android 4.2, 1GB RAM, Dual Core. The tablet must support OTG. Requires an OTG cable (not included with the trainer).
USB ANT+ stick (included with the trainer).
High-definition videos: depends on the device.
I think the app should work on de TF101 or am i missing something?

    KatKiss ROM - Asus TF101
    attachment.php

    Lollipop 5.1.1 Release 24​

    Please note that this version is made and tested on the TF101 model.





    This rom is an aosp based rom with my own additions on top of it.

    The main motto of the rom being Kiss. Even though the Meerkat could give you a kiss, it stands for Keeps it Sweet and Simple too
    Which means that just like the other K.A.T stuff, the rom's main goal is efficiency, speed/responsiveness,
    while not adding bloated features that will slow things down :)

    Tips

    First Install
    Make sure you do a full wipe the first time you install the rom
    If you get error code 9XX when installing an app in the PlayStore, make sure that you format /data
    (wipe doesn't format)

    The first boot after a rom flash is slower than with 4.4.4 and can take a few minutes as ART is slower than dalvik to optimize the applications, but is faster after the 1st time.
    (First boot takes ~2-3 minutes without gapps and 5+ minutes with gapps)
    Also keep in mind that after a fresh install, it might take a bit of time to get up to full speed as media scanner & google are checking/scanning and restoring stuff.

    VPN
    VPN works only with lollipop updated "low level" third party apps like VPNRoot for example.

    Youtube
    Latest youtube will work ok with res < 720p.
    720p might work if autoselected directly, but will most likely fail / stutter.
    Using an older version of Youtube fixes these issues.

    Hardware keyboard layouts
    More languages have been added in the default asusec keyboard
    Set the keyboard layout through Settings => Language & Input => asusec => setup keyboard layouts
    These also allow live switching without reboot with ctrl + space

    Global Key Override/Shorcut Mecanism
    Available in Settings => Dock => Add Key Override Actions

    This will allow you not only to redefine function keys assignment, and other special keys actions,
    but you'll also be able to assign global macro actions / app launch to any key + Meta key combination (shift Left or Right , ctrl..)

    You can also add multiple actions to one key combination, simply click again on the "+" button for the same key combination.
    For example if you want to assign to one key combination a list of action to run before going to bed for example, like: turn wifi off, Bluetooth off, mute sound, and turn screen off, you can do that :)
    Note that starting multiple applications with one key is kinda a miss and hit for the moment due to some mecanism in android that seems to prevent applications to start too close to each others.

    GPS:
    if it is taking a long time to get a lock or no lock, follow this:

    Install the latest K.A.T app

    Then follow precisely this procedure:


    1) Location Settings
    - Go to Settings => Location => turn OFF (top right switch)
    - Turn it back ON
    - Make sure you agree to let google access the location.
    - Make sure the current selected mode is High accuracy

    2) Launch the new K.A.T app
    - make sure you grant it root access
    - make sure you have internet access
    - go to the install menu, Check the "Install GPS quicker fix + Assistance
    - Click the Install button
    - Make sure it says "Install Finished"

    3) Reboot
    4) Wait that it has finished booting and launching all the stuff you have starting at boot
    5) Start your GPS app outside with a clear sky line, to speed things up stay in range of the wifi / internet connection.

    Do not let the gps app loose focus when it is trying to get a fix.
    Do not let your tablet sleep / turn off the screen either.


    Doing that here, the first time and with a cold gps start, and even staying in my house,
    I get a 6 sat fix within 30 seconds and 11 sat fix in 1min 15seconds.

    From there subsequent fixes takes about 3 seconds to grab 7 sats and about 10 seconds to reach the 10-11 sat fix
    (you still want to let it sit outside for a bit after the 1st fix, so that the ephemeris data gets consolidated and updated to help faster fix later on)




    Flash & HTML5 Video
    Flash is not supported by default on Lollipop, you can still use it with Dolphin Dolphin Browser:
    Install Dolphin Browser, install or activate Dolphin JetPack in settings, install the latest flash plugin.

    Sites are migrating slowly to HTML5 video use the default browser & other webkit based browsers for HTML5 video support


    Storage (fstrim) and Database optimization:
    Fstrim is native since 4.3 and will happen in the background if your tablet is idle / sleeping and that your battery is > 70%
    There is also a script to run it manually in the rom: /etc/kat/optimizestorage

    To optimize the Database: /etc/kat/optimizedb

    To run both, open a terminal and run:
    su
    /etc/kat/optimize
