can I use f2fs with this rom without much work/hassle? like format partitions in TWRP (kang versbion) to f2fs and then install ROM?

Thanks!

The only partition that will be formatted f2fs is /data ....

Yes this twrp can do that .....

Thx Josh

Is anyone else having trouble getting the download to start?? I tried all of the alternate mirrors on the android filehost site to no avail. This was for the most recent zip installer version.

Edit- NVM... I got it, but oddly I had to boot my device into CROMi-X to get it to dowload. All links failed with Zombi-pop.

Hi!

Is it possible to use the flashable ZIP to update CWM to TWRP? I am using CWM 6.0.4.7 on TF700.

All is well, flash away my friend. Just let it reboot into system first before going back into recovery

Flashed the ZIP version, after booting the system I had some rather funky errors where every single google service failed repeatedly, rebooted again in recovery, the zip had installed no problem, upon 2'nd boot to system no errors, honestly can't say if it's related or not, just wanted to throw up a "this happened" in case others experience something similar upon their first boot post flashing.

Thanks for the easy installer option

On occasion I have to slide the "switch" multiple times to return to the menu after a task (format, wipe, install, etc) completes. Does anyone else see this?

+1. also, i have seen similar on my N7 so figured it was a TWRP code-base thing . . .

. . . or user error . . .

It is. Here is the fix (which I haven't tested yet, but the code looks correct): https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/13193/

Oh, I always figured it was just very precise, and I kept sliding my finger off of whatever approved "landing spot" meant I slid it correctly.

No skin off my nose. Always worked in the end.

I 'm a newbie to these things. I have a few questions about these.
Is it safe to flash an .img file using fastboot ?Isn't usually a .blob file?

!!problem solved, sorry for the noise!!

Hi, I tried to write twrp 2.8.6.1 with fastboot, but after reboot-bootloader I get

key driver not found.. booting os
Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "ww_epad-10.6.1.14.10-20130801" A03

Starting Fastboot USB download protocol


Booting to android works, but I don't get into recovery to flash new rom.
Any hints?

When it says "starting Fasboot usb download protocol" did you try pressing Volume up on the tablet?

Thanks much, that was the solution. I tried that several times before but the problem I think was I didn't rename the img file to blob before flashing.

You dont have to rename the .img to .blob to flash it with fastboot

Thx Josh

Thanks guys, this was way less painful than trying to get my tablet recognized in windows with a blob. And reformatting my data partition on my sd card was painless!
