Firstly you need to get an USB OTG Cable which looks like this:
It should then pick it up if you restart with it plugged in.

That ROM won't work on the Windpad, you will brick it. The kernel is completely different. Rather pester MSI to release ICS or include a driver for you. You cannot extract a driver like that, it needs to be recompiled, and we don't have the kernel sources yet. To be honest, I will say it's rare that a usb 3g dongle actually works on a android device, most people just op for tethering, just less hassle.
Ok - Loaded the update.img BUT
it didn't wipe my data or apps, didn't remove the bloatware and it didn't include Lightning Launcher
So you would think it didn't work but System DID update to the 0306 firmware (I wasn't on that before)
Any thoughts?
PS - loaded Lightning Launcher after and so far it seems excellent
Simple clean and (ahem) lightning fast
It's fantastic, thanks man.
Hi all
Please note that if you have a problem try and copy the update.img to the root of your tab instead of the SD card
Regards;
Arcus fans
Just finished cooking V0.2, using a RKBatchtool method now, gonna test and will then upload

Which Enjoy Tablet do you have? the 7" or 10"?
enjoy7
You have to have it connected via USB cable first, then press and hold volume + and then press the reset pinhole, the tablet will not show anything when it goes into flash mode. You will see your windows will then attempt to install drivers for the flashmode tablet. You should then point it to the driver folder specified in the instructions, and run the RKBatchtool, select the firmware, it should now show the green icon, and you can proceed by clicking "Upgrade".

WARNING: Use this image at your own risk and i take no responsibility if
you brick your tablet.. Image has been tested on a Toshiba Folio 100 and works fine if guidelines are followed.
11.01.2011
Weeds2000 gave it a go, and fixed the download of paid apps! im sure alot will be happy to read this.
Then i found another tweak in the screen driver, to increase framerate which currently was only 51. now its increased to 80.
on top of this, DerArtem is currently working on making it possible to use USB 3G dongles on our folio, so we can go online using the phone functionality in Android. I have for now, enabled some phone functions and activated the signal level indicator (might be annoying, but enhancement has a cost for now).
It also seems, that i by mistake had enabled locationservices in the build.prop, so at every boot the GPS, which we don't have, was enabled and caused an additional CPU load during a bootup. this is now fixed as well.
31.12.2010
the update pack includes some fixes for wpa_supplicant issue, where it did not switch to the correct adhoc wpa_supplicant.
and weeds2000 has brought a new update to the orientation so compass works, but mouse is still wrong.
lastly it fixes the sensor readings which made your tablet unable to rotate.
30.12.2010
A little more details on v1.3 update release..
V1.3 went through a public beta1 stage and issues were found and fixed where possible.
While fixing bugs in 1.3beta a 3D performance pack was found with the Viewsonic forum, and i tested it with our Folio, with changes as required to match our system. and it increased framerates. So that is now part of the new 1.3.
Furthermore the filesystem I/O performance bugs were found and fixed, and we now have a 330MB partition running on a loopback device, making database calls and small file changes much faster.
With the ElocityA7 i found the newest Flashplayer minor update revision, and of course replaced our Toshiba beta with the new one found.
Other users has suggested kernel tweaks which also has been added to the v1.3, one of them is the "swappiness" parameter, it is suggested to increase application handling on our folio and its now "live" in this release.
Sol Ido, provided us with the 0.3.4 edition of the FolioWidget, which includes a tricker enabler for switching between the regular wpa_supplicant and the wpa_supplicant for adhoc use also included in 1.3.
The orientation fix from weeds2000 is now default included into v1.3, but can be removed with a rollback patch found in the patches section in Post #1. it does have flaws like mouse pointer moves in "portrait" mode right now. compass should not be working correctly. but in general more apps utilizing the orientation/sensor is now working much better.
With FolioMod 1.3 a small milestone is reached, getting 3000+ in Quadrant score without actually cheating here
But of course Quadrant benchmarking is just one way of meassuring our device, CPU performance has not changed at all, so dont get too excited, but it does help in the overall experience of your tablet.

as you see on the picture above, our tablet has native 0 degree in landscape mode where mobilephones got portrait native.. you can call this failure of nvidia, or someone else, but it seems that someone thinks this should be the standard.
if we can get the X and Y curve switched, we might just get it working normally.
12.12.2010
- Version 1.2 introduce use of the official patch installer from Toshiba which shows progress bar indicator movements on the screen, if recovery menu is not shown.
- Version 1.2 offers the newest toshiba update 2.5.0053 features, but which?
- BadStorm2010 managed to get a custom kernel compiled, which for adds support for ext4(future support),OpenVPN and cifs support, so you can mount filesystems over network.
- The FolioWidget offers control of your hardware buttons to have lights enabled and turns off only when pressed (good during evening/night)
- By failure of mine, the Vending.apk (Market app) included in 1.2, slows down the folio, so to enhance and fix it, i added a patch which adds the newest Market app to our folio with new design and way of selecting apps (actually is much better).
- as the framework is new, i tried to include all old features as 360 rotation , wma/wmv , Google apps + /mnt/sdcard location fix and other small issues.
- Paid apps still remain an issue with toshiba framework, only solution for you that want/need it, is to use the old 0.2 edition with nvidia framework.
29.11.2010
Currently the Toshiba edition 1.0b is having more issues than compared to 0.2a software wise. there is a freeze issues, and awake issues(solved,but fix is not released) and google paid apps cannot be downloaded.
So if you're ok without proper BT functions and usbstick unmounting, the 0.2a is probably you're best choice right now..
But if you need mouse/keyboard, usbstick proper unmount, 360rotation, the toshiba mod is the way forward.
I will try and get the freezing fixed, but more testing is needed..
28.11.2010
the Toshiba mod was created due to all the small differences in the framrwork with Bluetooth, USB functionality and sdcard card functions. Like on phones, vendors always do a little customization, which not always serves all users nicely when the image is modded based on other models. But now the stock rom is available with modded functions, so all should be happy now.
25.11.2010- on top of the above mentioned changes, here are some more regular info
- The new 0.2a still has USB stick/sdcard unmount issues, which is only part of the toshiba framework to handle for now. Im working on getting it to work on stock android.
- Increased the desktop sizing to 7 vert/horz , so more space for widgets and placement.
- media player extract image information.
- Wpa supplicant will not show signal strength for now, but im sure the better functionality might compesate for this.
(this has been tested with my Galaxy S running tetherAP function, and i could go online using my mobile connection)
Tested(v0.2a),
-Gapps,Angrybirds,Movieplayback(Yxplayer)+WMV/WMA, HDMI out, usb mass storage to pc, sdcard,usbstick, websurf+flash
- rotation , Market download, Power off,ad-hoc connectivity,.
I will test it now, downloading (very very slow :S), thank you very much for your work your are my hero

its very slow, because there is like 20 of us who are downloading the file at the same time.
well the one who gets it up an running first, please post a step by step for the noobs ( like me) and give some impressions how the device works with this first better rom!
Anyone is welcome to post mirrors, i dont needs credits for those.
Btw, im also uploading a stock mod for this folio..not sure it takes bandwidth, maybe too many mods on my hosting solution, as its probably busy somehow..
and we all know Folio100 is not THAT popular yet! so many is so much said
Downloaded but file is corrupt... re-downloading
Great , going to download it and try it ! Thanks

No problems with the Download here.
I installed everything through the System Update, but nothing changed at all. Do I have to perform a factory reset before applying the folio mod? (My folio is rooted, I tried to install some google apps and so on...)
The first line when applying the mod says "E: can't mount DEFAULT_PATH" - how about the others?
Anyway: thanks a lot for your work!
At some point you have to select "apply sdcard:update.zip" or something like that with vol - and (i think) power
For me it did a factory reset but nothing else, tried angry birds to see if anything had changed but nope.

also for me nothing changed. Download and update work fine. After update I try to install Angry Birds but when I
run it I can hear the sound of the game, but I don't see nothing.
Is possibile with this mod install the Android Market?

are people using the "update.zip" inside the zip i released? or simply putting this one on the sdcard?
when installing it shows text, when HOME button is pressed this is clearly one way to confirm something.. just rebooting does not say much here..
here is another way:
- Reboot into "Firmware Update" menu.. (Press MENU to show actual recovery menu screen when booted into recovery kernel, after the "recovery logo" shows)
- Insert sdcard into slot, and move to "update firmware" second line.. and press power button to execute.
below you should see the information on steps taken..

Formating MISC:...
I reboot and same launcher, no gapps, no opengl2.0
Okay, tried the other way:
Booted into Firmware update without the sd-card until the android with an exclamation-mark-sign shows up.
Pressed the Home-Button an got into the system recovery utility.
Second lin is apply sdcard:update.zip (Vol down + Power on)
Code:
Folio100 Open Recovery starts:
Extrackting packs.
Done Extraction
preparing filesystem
rund adbd
+--start adb daemon--+
+--installing boot--+
+--installing recovery--+
+--extracting system--+
+Installing system, this takes a while (correct ;))
+---
Installation done.now reboot system.
Install from sdcard complete.
Formatting MISC:...
Rebooting system (Power)
So, unitil now everything looks fine. After a reboot nothing changed
Hope this helps to debug.

well, it looks correct, so next question is; can you use adb? and login with shell and maybe extract the /tmp/recovery.log file?
if you got no root, just enter "rootme" and you should be disconnected from adb.
kill adb with "adb kill-server" and relogin with adb.
and you got root.
Is this correct?
power vol+
vol+ ->"continue factory data reset..."
vol- ->"continue system update"
vol+ ->"confirm"
when adroid appears HOME button
vol- ->"apply sdcard:update.zip"
power
then
"reboot now"
no need to do any wipe data/factory reset or wipe cache partition?
at the end I have
Finding update package...
Opening update package...

FEATURES
kernel is 2.6.29-perf, Cyanogenmod 7 Based (Gingerbread 2.3.5), overclock is supported (710 mhz max)
KNOWS BUGS:
- FM not working
- Wired headset not working during calls
- Wifi tethering is not working with built in method (settings -> wireless), but works well with the app from the market "wireless tether for root users"
- Camera is now working (thanks slk77) but buttons are not correctly skinned, minor bug
- Qrcode apps not working
- Usb thetering not working due to kernel limitation
Keyboard issues:
The main problem for keyboard is that there are different versions around of this phone with different keyboards...
In order to gain the same characters mapping as before you need to move back from the original rom the file named qwerty.kcm.bin located under system/usr/keychars in the same folder of the new rom.
The file that is now packed in the rom is the one from the italian version of u8300 that should be ok for european users. Other keyboard versions need their own file from the old eclair rom.
I'm packing some of the keyboard layout to help you with this, they are in form of zip update, flash them after the rom and remember to fix permissions!
- Thai keyboard update:

PREPARE YOUR PHONE
- Root the phone with z4root
- Install rom manager from market
- Install the custom recovery from rom manager, choose huawei ascend recovery
- Reboot into recovery and do a full backup of your current rom
INSTALL ADRENALIN ROM
n.b.: If you are coming from a previous adrenalin rom version I suggest you to wipe data and do a fresh install to avoid problems like bootloop or Force closes.
- Put the file Adrenalin.2.3.5.RC1.update3 into the root of your sd card and reboot the phone in recovery mode
- Choose wipe data/factory reset from the menu
- Choose "install zip from sdcard" and select Adrenalin.2.3.5.RC1.update3 from the menu, go on with the process
- Once done, reboot the phone and do the first boot, it should take 3/4 minutes
- Reboot the phone once again in recovery mode and again choose "install zip from sdcard", but this time select patches.zip and go on with the process
- Once done, do not reboot, but select "advanced" and then "fix permissions", it should take a minute or less
- Reboot and you are done

get rom manager, clockwork reco and finally i get 2.3 on my u8300 and it is working fine, it is really light and clean (how to install google apps such gmail, maps etc?)
some bugs at the first impressions (notice that i am a newbbie and this is the first rom i try on android, so some bugs aren't a real bug but depend from my incompetence):
cannot pull up the notification panel
cannot find screen alignment utility
can't find add new google account (only new email)
the in call screen is always in portrait mode (so it is rotated by 90 degrees)
this is a very best starting point for developing this huawei device.
i'll wait to test newer build
thank you very much for your efforts!
sorry for my english, if u need more detailed reports please contact me in pm, so we could speak italian ^^

thank you znial for your bug report
you can't pull down the notification panel because the touch is not aligned, and the main problem is that gingerbread don't use no more the tslib so there are not possibilities to align it manually trought a program. Align must be done by kernel side and this is so hard for me T_T but i'm working on it ^^
google apps need to be downloaded from market

but we will need to wait a bit I think...
For the Google Apps (and market), install this: http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
ty for the app for the app market ^^
You are welcome. I am doing some experiments with the rom.
As far as I've seen, the touchpad is working correctly in landscape mode. So it's a bit weird but it's still usable.
I like the idea of Gingerbread on this phone
u are right with market xD
I've uploaded the wrong release of rom -.- sry my fault... I'll add back market with next release
OK, i solved the Problem of the Google Apps.
Download "gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip" file to your computer and copy and paste into the SDCard root . Turn off the Phone and Boot in recovery mode "Press and Hold Green key + Volume+ and Power up all the same time" and select "Flash from SD card". Then you'll see "gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip" and Select it. Install and reboot and done u'll see all Google apps.
1) does this rom supports "answer button" on wired handsfree ?
2) how much phone works (approx) ?
3) does barcode scanners works ?
4) can i mount card via USB without console\adb ?
i tried this swedroid.se/forum/showthread.php?t=40999 mod of CM7/2.3.3 & it got all this bugs now :-(
About the Notification bar the problem is no the calibration, i believe is the drag button is bugged, cuz u cant drag up or down,
btw i find a way to open it,
Go -> Menu -> Settings -> ADWLauncher -> General Behavior -> and chose Swipe Up or Down Actions -> and Open/close Notifications
I hope some genius solve this, but for now is better then nothing

This helps to improve battery life:
1º I always use it for WhatsApp 2G networks, mail, etc. spare me (and I polish the data rate in 2 days) which I do not care.
- Settings - Wireless - Mobile networks - (activated) Use only 2G networks.
2º Always sync manually Market, E-mail or contact (WhatsApp, messenger, etc does not care, are always active).
- Sync settings and accounts - (Off) Reference Data.
3° Off (default is active) GPS in the taskbar. (Where is the Bluetooth and Wifi.) Will make sure that security settings and location is only active Use wireless networks.
4º Inactive animations and screen brightness of the automatic.
5º I have the normal speed processor and 122Mhz minimum.
6º I use the Calibrator's Battery Market (following instructions) and the battery to 100%.
7° With these steps, I increase the battery life.
----- Installation with DarkTremor. -----We started the ClockworkMod, we Wipe data / factory reset, Wipe cache, then we enter an advanced Dalvik Wipe Cache and the battery is 100% Battery Status do a Wipe if we do not proceed to make ext3 partition. Advanced, partition SD Card, 512 or 1GB and select Swap 64MB (Remember that after partition the SD to copy the rom on the FAT), after doing all that, select the rom to install and expect to complete the process. Once finished the installation process, restart the phone and wait for it to boot the system.

Hi elitemovil,
thanks for providing another ROM. I highly appreciate your work here.
I'm just gonna test this new ROM and it feels smooth and fast.
2 things I recognized within my first steps:
Older Titanium Backup versions seem to have a problem to restore old backuped apps. An actual one works.
And I tried to use MyPhoneExplorer and for the USB Connection it needs the USB Debug Mode. I checked if I had a checkmark in the options-application-development and it was but I don't have an icon in the status bar for the debug mode and the synchronization via MyPhoneExplorer does not work: no USB connection. The normal activation of USB worked, I see a new disk in my explorer on the PC. Only the debug mode seems to fail.
Any hints?

I seem to be unable to install the ROM. I am stuck at the green droid. I am not having any glitches installing Elitmovil ot the official 2.3.5.
Hello.
New optimized kernel 03_11_11 in first post.
Thanks.!
Super !
Hi elitemovil,
thanks for providing the new kernel.
I'm testing it for 24 hours now and I'm quite happy with it.
No Wifi issues anymore, really quick GPS fix (I was impressed), battery seems to last as long as e.g. Moldovan R5 does. It's stable, smooth (but I moved to ADW Ex because I personally don't like this vertical scrolling of the App Drawer in Launcher Pro). And the USB connection now works including Debugging mode. As a result MyPhoneExplorer is working now - super! I tried it with your configuration change you mentioned in your response to my question and this did not work for me. But the new kernel works like a charm.
So at the moment I'm quite happy with it.
I feel a bit sorry that you don't get this big feedback here because IMO Elite Blade_ROM s1.1 plays now in the same league as Moldovan and GSF (in the past).
One comment:
if you want to increase the positive reactions for your ROM I appreciate if you will build a release that includes the new kernel and (if still needed, I at least used it) the Wifi Fix. Otherwise as a hint for other users: store all 3 files on the SD card before doing the ROM flash. Otherwise you could get into trouble upload the fix and the new kernel to your phone because the USB connection does not work (at least for me it did not).
So I did it like this:
1. Copy ROM, Wifi fix and new kernel to your SD card
2. In Clockworkmode do a full wipe
3. Flash the ROM file
4. Flash fix and new kernel
5. Enjoy...
As a conclusion:
great work - great ROM, elitemovil. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

Tips
First Install
Make sure you do a format /data the first time you install the rom
(backup your internal storage first if you want to keep something)
The first boot after a rom flash 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 ~4-5 minutes without gapps and 10+ 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.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth might require to be turned on twice before it scans and displays the available devices.
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)
Youtube
Depending on your network and tablet load, 720p videos might not play or take longer to buffer.
Switch to 480p in that case.
Some videos are also 720p60fps so you might need to switch back to 480p for these too.
You can also try an older youtube version and disable auto updates: youtube-v5.0.21
Google Play Movies
Our current Widevine DRM libs are not compatible in MM.
So you can't play a movie on the tablet with Google Play Movies as it requires that.
Starting a movie to play on chromecast should be fine as the drm will be the chromecast one in that case.
Now On Tap
Now On Tap requires the nano opengapps version, however our default /system partition is too small to accommodate them.
So if you want to install the nano or bigger opengapps version, you'll need to repartition the storage space first using Bigwheelie for extended partitions
Then activate Now on Tap from google now settings
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.
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
MultiWindow
Multiwindow allows you to split the screen in 2, 3 or 4 panes
you can switch an app back and forth between multiwindow mode and regular mode while it's running
NavBar:
- To switch between full screen and split View you can use the
NavBar Buttons
The app that currently has the focus (or the latest used app if you're on the Desktop) will be used for the main pane (left and/or top depending on the mode and rotation)
And it will lay the remaining most recently used apps in the rest of the available 1-2-3 panes depending on the icon you click
- If you press a multiwindow icon again when in splitview mode, it'll bring the focused app back to fullscreen mode.
- To swap the 2 latest focused apps location / pane , long press on the
NavBar Button
- To change focus simply Tap on the app or use the
NavBar Button
That button can also be used in non multiwindow mode to switch quickly between the 2 most recent apps.
Global Actions:
Actions to switch the app between fullscreen / splitview 2-3-4 panes, swap, or switch between the 2 most recent apps have been added
so you can bind them to a key / key combination with the Global KeyOverride or long press on navbar button too.
Note: Most apps works ok in splitview mode, but some of them might crash or not refresh correctly sometime.
To manually position an app in one of the pane:
For the moment either reorder your apps before clicking on an auto mode icon,
or you can also activate the default Marshmallow Multiwindow mode to get extra icons to positions an app in a specific pane (activate it in developer options )
Then position the apps with the icons from the Recents screen. (default MM recents icons are for 2 or 4 panes)

Many thanks, Tim, for keeping the Tf101 alive!
I'm a little afraid to try, but I know I will
Officially my Transformer is one of the oldest devices I own and should really show its age.
But it just doesn't, it sets itself apart from the two other Tegra 2 devices (Notion Ink Adam and Acer Iconia) by being a thoroughly enjoyable device, which reacts very promptly to all input and still is mechanically perfect with great battery life.
Some hardware ingredients like DRAM and Flash seem to be made of better stuff (some benchmark show twice the memory bandwidth than Acer Iconia and NI Adam and the eMMC is lots better than Acer (Adam is notoriously terrible)), but mostly it must be the constant tweaking you (and Google?) have put in, because the performance only got better and better, even if the applications typically got fatter and fatter and 1GB of DRAM is no longer as plenty as it used to be with Android 2.2.
I surely can't say the same for my Nexus 7, which started being somewhat snappier than the Transformer and turned out pretty bad with LP even after turning off the journalling on ext4.
Marshmallow has disappointed me so far (only Nexus 10 migrated yet), mostly because my standard launcher SPB shell 3D no longer works on it and I just like it better than stock or any other.
And then I just don't see any significant improvements beyond Lollipop or rather CM 12 with all the privacy stuff already included. And I just love the fast task switching, which is part of the multiwindow support and which I have on a keyboard shortcut (hope it comes soon).
Somehow I also doubt that Nougat will be better in any sense except "better" Google integration.
But since I'm very much afraid of operating anything without the latest security patches, I'll just have to make the switch.
And I'm sure it will be as perfect as the current LP by the time Nougat comes out.
Thanks Timduru for making it possible
Link is ready, downloading :good:
Thank you. what I've failed to understand, do you need to install a separate root tool? Or is it included in the recommended recovery tool? It's still as i bought it in 2011... Thanks!
Thanks so much Tim gonna test this out

Just follow the procedure from the 1st post:
once you have the recovery installed:
the first time: format /data
then install all 3 zips at once: rom + supersu + gapps
then reboot.
Thank you Tim! Awesome as always. Gonna try ASAP.
One question...
What is the downside of not having omx codecs working?

No omx codecs means no gpu video acceleration, so it'll use cpu to decode instead.

It sounds so easy... First I don't really know how to install the recovery (hence, i have been spending 'only' app 7 hours on topic by now). I would assume from PWR+VOL- then Vol+ goes to recovery mode, but the device gets stuck with a android red expression mark. I then tried to install the Easyflasher 0.8.3 and managed to first delete the drivers and installed new universal ones. Rebooted and continue to follow the procedure and the Easyflasher on my Windows tells me i have successfully unbricked my Asus Stock. However, when i reboot, it looks all exactly the same, no data lost, no new installation. Then I could, or should?, flash a recovery. However, if i try to do it from the Easyflasher there is only the old TWRP 2.2.1. available and i fail to make use of the downloaded TWRP 2.8.1.1. CLick the Root, doesn't work either.
Then, the frustration goes up and the progress goes down... please advise and push me in the right direction! MUch appreciated!

Installing the recovery is not really the focus of this thread, and it has been a really long time since I installed on mine
But what I would do, since you seem to have easyflasher and drivers working:
- Install TWRP 2.2.1 from easyflasher
- reboot to that TWRP 2.2.1
- Install the TWRP 2.8.1.1 flashable zip from TWRP 2.2.1
- reboot to the recovery and it should now be TWRP 2.8.1.1
Flashed all 3 zip ROM+su+pico but can't boot to Android.
After the Asus logo screen turns black and nothing happens.
Any ideas?

sounds as if the new kernel didn't flash or something.
What recovery are you using ?
Even if the screen goes black you should get adb working after a few minutes, it's still doing things in the background normally.
Try to grab me a logcat + dmesg at that point.
EDIT: Found the problem, yeah kernel not flashing:
Flash it separatly for the moment: Tim_KatKernel_122_MM6.0.zip
that will be fixed in the next version.

Unfortunately me too.
The only step from install note was the "Format" because of lack of time and data cable to copy everything from internal sd to my pc (only way for me is over the air with My Phone Explorer right now).
Tried 19 & 19b together with SuperSu 2.52 and gapps-arm-pico in one flash.
Backlight of screen is on, but then nothing happens over an hour.

Sounds like a plan, i tried and Easyflasher tells me it runs Wheelie,NV Flash then 'finished new reboot into recovery'. I do so, but android gets stuck in the recovery with an red expression mark, then it'll boot normal again.
Might it be that root access is blocking it? The Easyflasher root access tells me to first falsh recovery and put the superuser on sd.
I have installed both TWRP and SuperSu but both run into issues: the first tells me 'root is required' then closes, the second tells me 'no SU binary installed' then closes.
I then decided to go for a very crappy 1-click root access, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1689193, with an even worse http://www.4shared.com/postDownload/ja5cFLAL/1-Click_Transformer_Root_11.html. This seems to have succeeded and i got root access (!) and the above described issues on TWRP and SuperSu were not gone.
Then in TWRP i couldn't select the zipfile TWRP 2.8.1, and after telling TWRP i had a TF101 i could select an older version like 2.3, which he was going to download. I had to confirm a path but decided to abort. I then tried to boot recovery but unfortunately, and not as i expected, it run into the same red expression mark. I then decided to run APX mode again and see if easyflasher could access root now. Also negative. Then run normal ABD mode and checked if i could do something with SuperSu, also negative.
So it seems my problem is that TWRP doesn't allow me to select the right zip file and as a result i can't run any recovery... any idea?
UPDATE: going back to apx flash the default TWRP2.2.1 then reboot to recovery succeeds in Easyflasher but the same red expression mark with Android. so also negative

The Leagoo M8 is an entry level 5.7" Smartphone running on the MT6580A SOC with 2GB of RAM. Like many budget devices, the Leagoo M8 has decent hardware for the money, but suffers from a poor software experience and too much bloat. I created this project to share a more lightweight and clean software experience so we can get the most out of our device without too much effort
Important note! I am NOT a developer. Don't expect me to know how to recompile a kernel or anything. I'm just a lazy user who has been using Android for a while and much prefers a clean, AOSP-style look and feel There are a few technical issues which are outside of my reach, so if anyone is able to help, please feel free to reach out.
Disclaimer! I am not responsible for any damages you may do to yourself or your device by modifying your device!
What's Working:
- Everything, except some silly Leagoo features which I removed (eg. Supershot, screen recording).
Known issues:
Same issues as stock Freeme OS. Nothing serious and definitely OK as a daily driver, but the following annoy me the most. If anyone is able to suggest fixes, please comment below!
1. Onscreen Softkeys are misconfigured. I'd like to at least re-map the recents button back to recents, and change the long press of recents to menu. Recents should not be a menu button.... this may require recompiling SystemUI.apk (I think) which is out of my depth
2. The fingerprint sensor is silly. Sometimes it won't recognise my finger, despite me adding the same finger three times, and other times the fingerprint sensor is active when using it, and it will trigger some actions if I touch it by accident (eg. when using Chrome it will open the menu, and other time it will just vibrate the phone - strange).
3. Wi-Fi performance and 3G performance are low compared to other devices. Not sure if this can be fixed by software.
4. There are limited language options. I would like to see English (Australia) for example, but this is not a big deal
5. Considering replacing stock Phone and Contacts apps with Google equivalent from Play Store. Will test first.
6. At 10% battery a prompt will appear which asks whether you want to enable "superPowerSave mode" which is a really badly done version of Samsung's Ultra Power Saver mode, which I removed, so clicking OK does nothing. Would be nice to remove this prompt somehow.
Install Instructions:
Since I am lazy, I have just packaged it as a TWRP backup. Root is not included by default, but you can flash SuperSU in TWRP if you like.
1. Install TWRP 3.0.2 on your device via SPFlashTools (If you haven't done so already, download link provided)
2. Download ROM package, unpack archive, and copy contents to /sdcard of the device internal storage
3. Restore the TWRP backup. This will wipe /system, /data and /boot for you, so there is no need to factory reset.
4. Flash SuperSU package from "Extras" folder for Root access (optional)
5. Wipe internal storage to clear up internal storage (optional)
6. Reboot, wait at least 10 minutes for first boot - it takes a while

Glad to hear it, first time I've ever uploaded a ROM. :good: Feel free to use the thanks button and let me know how it goes for you!
Edit: If anyone is able to help out with the wish list, I'd be very appreciative!
Great work and congratulations on your first rom.
Did you run any benchmarks before and after? And how is ram consumption vs. stock?

I can't say I tested much before and after (I couldn't stand the bloat lol), but it definitely feels a lot more responsive, and I am getting good battery life now - around 6hrs SOT today, few phone calls, but mostly messaging and reddit/facebook and a bit of book reading. I'm very happy so far. There are reviews where people were saying they were getting a lot less SOT than that, so I think it's an improvement.
Next thing I'll add to my wish list is to integrate the Google Dialer and Google Contacts app from the play store to replace the stock Android 6.0 apps, assuming that they work well during my testing on this device. They have a couple more features and being linked to the play store means that as Google adds more features and improves functionality, the ROM will automatically get those updates.
Thank you so much for your effort. You help many others
Update: Xposed works fine, and once I installed gravitybox I was able to remap the buttons with relative ease. More info here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
Edit: was getting some strange issues with Xposed so uninstalled it. For example, my recents key disappeared randomly after a reboot :/
I enjoy this lazy man ROM alot. I have enough juice to make my day. Thank you stephend. I'll advise you a to switch to this ROM.
Greetings.

maybe preloader or dsp_bl??
Just the recovery.
You don't have to check any thing just the recovery okay. I don't understand what's going on with your phone. Use another computer.

I actually did it!
The problem was in the "how to" engage the process.
I was pressing both volume buttons and then plug in the phone in the computer.
It worked with just plug in the phone!
I did it on windows 10 x64
Thanks for all the help.
Phone is smooth, great work.
Enjoy.
Yes, mediatek phones are a bit funny, all you have to do is click download and then connect the device whilst it is powered off and it will just flash away, no button pressing needed.
I really would like to re-arrange these on-screen buttons though. Preferably on a system level by editing an XML file. Anyone know how to do this?
Edit: Also, has anyone lost vibration after flashing my deblotated ROM? I've just noticed my phone doesn't vibrate, but I think it might be hardware.
