[Q] paulburton ICS port

So great to see another update with many bug fixes, I notice one of them is better suspend outcome, in your known issues post you state:
"Sometimes wakes from suspend by itself (usually when suspending via the screen timeout)"
Does shutting off the screen manually still result in it occasionally waking too ?
Also Wifi, does that break no matter how it suspends, manually or timeout ?
Cheers

Yes and yes to both questions
Just it seems that the nvidia ventana drivers work quite well because the build is smoother than before

I'm impressed with this build, the setup is smoother, the gApps work for the most part, i am tinkering with SD card mount currently to see if I can fix it

Thanks, very tempting to flash this again now more of it works... trying to convince myself that setting this back up for the 100th time will not be as painful as it was the first 99 times

Do we have a way to restore our App Backup's made with Honeycombs App Backup App yet ?

Yes, you can do it with titanium backup

Have you tried to reinstall the app on ICS yet? Alot of the apps that I have on HC usually run on ICS. I'm not sure if that particular one will install though. You may have to run it through a deodex, and try to install it via adb.
Did you find the workaround for the Wifi glitch stable?

up and running no problem, booted back into recovery fine, everything seems smooth. quite happy to run with this as i only use my tf for creating sigs and browsing the web / listening to music. Trying to find a screen capture app that works on this so i can show it off but the one i used took a capture and instead of the rom build details i got a recovery type screen but the writting was in green. kinda cool but obviously of no use lol
only question for me is: can future ics based roms just be flashed via recovery as normal?
i can jump back to h/c based roms from ics on my sgs2 via recovery no problems but im aware of hardware differences etc.
all apps from titanium backup running fine for me.

If you are already at ICS then yes, unless Paul or whomever decides that it's better to wipe first. Just remember, the TF doesn't flash the kernel (luna, spelling-- he he he) so you have to flash it separately to get back to HC. Otherwise a good nandroid should work just fine to return.

you need a video player from the Market. I use MXPlayer. Works just fine.
Anyone with Youtube issues needs to download and install Flash from the Market. YouTube is working fine on my tab after flash install.

Youtube app just closes when i select a video to play. Youtube.com in browser with flash just freeze after it has buffered.

im wondering....since the xoom and galaxy tab both share many features as the tf101, and the xoom and gtab both have stable cm9 builds... would we be able to "steal" some parts from those roms and make a port or something?

Gtab is a completely different board. So no. Xoom has a bunch of different parts that require different drivers, so, no on that too, unless you want to bork your tablet.

[APP] AsusDayScene.apk STANDALONE for custom ROMs

This is a modified version of of the new AsusDayScene.apk, which was released for Prime last week.
I modified it so it works on custom ROMs that do not have the Asus tree wallpapers.
Extract the rar. Install the apk like a normal app. I had to rar because of the 8mb attachment size limit.
Update: Changed package name. Should install without problem for everyone now.

Thanks but doesn't work for me, "Application not installed"
CM9 rom

hmm I am using CM9 and it's working fine.
Did you already try to use the original version of asusdayscene.apk? then you need to remove that first.

works. thnx for this.

100 downloads and 2 replies. Wow I guess now I understand why people beg for thanks in their signatures. I still won't do it though.
So I can assume this works for everyone except the first guy who replied?

Work for me

It's perfect ! Thanks.

Ricardo is already working on it.
I hope it's a flashable add-on though. A lot of people won't use it so it will just be a bloatware.

If he hacks it to become a root explorer it would be ok and not bloatware lol

From 1.0.2 up, it has support for the asus file manager, but it still fc's when it opens. The logcat says that a nullpointer exception ocurred in line #. And that line has just a findViewById and a loadBackground or something like that.

I applaud your unbridled optimism Sir.

ASUS hinted at this yesterday on FB. Their post "When Mr. Jellybean is in the office, it means something good is coming."

I've learned from the TF101 ICS update - be careful what you wish for!!! For those that don't know, my (and others) TF101 has basically become very un-reliable since they introduced ICS.
While I truly *hope* we don't have such issues with the Jelly Bean upgrade, I certainly don't have a lot of confidence in Asus at this point.
I just hope that they don't rush it and test it properly before releasing it and forcing the upgrade on us (which is exactly what they did with the ICS update on the TF101).
I do know that my TF700 has some of the same ICS issues that the TF101 had (OpenGL out of memory errors, for example, which causes your launcher to go "blank")....

Great! Very exciting news to wake up to!
When Firmware actually starts dropping DON'T FORGET TO!!
*Side load your FLASH PLAYER. If you want flash. It will no longer show up in the Playstore any longer
*Revert back whatever modding/altering to system files just in case Rooters. Only if you want your OTAS to actually complete. Or if running a custom rom it wouldn't work anyways as you already know.
*Don't forget to backup your Root with Voodoo Ota Rootkeeper! You will definitely lose root if you don't
Time to obsessively check every 5 minutes for the update!!!

*sighs* I want all my devices to run Jellybean today, here is to hoping it will happen.

As I'd normally recommend rooting myself, I don't think it's necessary in this case. Why not just install .apk with Flash after allowing unknown sources? I believe it should suffice, although I don't know if it's any different with the JB system of permissions.

No need to root to install Flash on Jelly Bean. At least not on the Nexus 7.

I can confirm - my father just bought a Nexus 7 - I emailed the Flash app to him and he was able to install it and it worked without any rooting or anything.
He used Boat Browser (per my recommendation) - not sure about other browsers, but I assume it work with all expect for Chrome, of course...

To everyone who wants flash, the easy way is to place the apk somewhere on Dropbox/Google Drive/Physical medium and install it from there, also since this week Adobe Flash Player is not available in the Play Store. http://www.pcworld.com/article/260901/android_flash_player_rip_how_to_get_it_now_that_its_gone.html

Everyone remember to backup the files created by titanium backup themselves to a removable SD card or your PC.
As for JB, I am not sure we can expect it for the TF700 right away ... the TF300 is so similar to the nexus 7, I'm sure they only slightly modified their nexus 7 kernel.

Is it just me or does anyone else thinks it's wrong that Asus updated their cheap tablet before their flagship?

No, the tf300 probably just happened to be ready first. It would silly to make all of the tf300 wait a few days just because the tf700 wants it first lol

Thanks for the work! Seems to run great for me now that I'm using your repo for the vendor binaries. Much obliged.

will this also be the official gapps for the device or it'll be whatever rootzwiki is putting out? would be nice to remove apps freely available on playstore (example: gmail and maybe others)
thanks for reading.

So far other than some lag here and there this is strangely the best ROM I have used on this device

Was wondering when this was coming.
Thanks again for all the work to keep our tablets current and relevant!

Just finished flashing this new ROM, but I couldn't get superuser permissions in any app.
The root problem is a headache in 4.3, our fantastic devs will surely find a way to get over that problem.

I've flashed the 07-30 build, it's the same as in the op's link for the ROMS.
I tried all root apps that I have couldn't get superuser permissions in any.
But I didn't uninstalled them maybe that was why I had the problem.
Actually the ROM is very good for an experimental.

I cant wait to Flash this. Android 4.3's TRIM support should really help reduce the constant lag that often makes our Transformers completely unusable most of the time. Mine has been sitting at home running the boinic application for the past week as I cant even type out an email without the lag.

This is for you Titanium Backup users. I would not restore data, this is a new version of android.
For TiBu fix
Go: menu > preferences > backup folder location
Click: Detect > Whole Device
Change location to "/storage/emulated/legacy/TitaniumBackup"
(if you have no backups saved to SD, hit Back nav key until you can select this directory manually)
IF asked if you'd like to move files to new directory, select NO
You then can restore apps.
On TiBu's Twitter they released a beta which supposedly fixes inability to uninstall apps via TiBu, but I haven't tested this

You should try it yourself, make a backup in case that hdmi doesn't work but if it does you stay in Android 4.3.
I'm feeling it a little bit smoother than CM 10.1 not a single FC or random reboot on latest version.
