HI,

when i update the TWRP from 2.6.2 (which doesnt work to install the rom) to 2.8.1.1 my system doesnt boot anymore and when i enter the recovery its only short flickering and then black screen :(
also have a boot loop now.
Installed was your 4.4.4 Rom before.
Clean flash? Re-download 2.8.1.1 just in case too

About 3 or 4 days ago, Chrome Beta updated and now it won't open. Is anyone else having this problem?

I've been running lollipop smoothly for a while and this is a first. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome Beta but nothing works. I just keep getting a message that says Chrome has stopped responding. I had to install another browser to get online. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please help! I need my bookmarks!

Clean install and you will be great!

You know, I actually saw the new update for the first time yesterday when I was looking for help on my Chrome problem. I'm considering the update right now. Thank you for pointing it out. ;). I was actually wondering if there were any bugs. I read some comments about internet connectivity and was waiting to see if there were going to be updated releases that fix the problem.

this is the wrong thread, but the answer is from the OP of the mm thread

Wallpaper Modes
Different Wallpaper modes have been added in Settings => Display
** Normal (regular android mode)
** Disable System Wallpaper rendering (set as default)
** Disable Wallpaper service

2nd setting will prevent the wallpaper being rendered by the system making things faster and also freeing resources
That's the recommended setting you want to use if you are using a launcher that has internal wallpaper rendering
The Default included Launcher3 has internal rendering
For Nova: Go to its Settings => Desktop => Wallpaper Scrolling => Force, then set a wallpaper.
(You will see a black wallpaper if you're not using a launcher that can do internal rendering, If wallpaper is important and that you want to keep your current launcher, then switch back to the 1st setting)

    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
