[Q] ASUS ICS x CM9 x CM10 - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

We all know the official ICS for TF100 is a CRAP, and apparentily after .24/.27 they do nothing anymore.
Is CM9 for TF100 have all the official ICS bugs, SLODs, RRs, etc or is it stable?
What about the CM10 stability (i know it's alpha yet)?

CM9 is aosp so it has nothing official from Asus in it. The kernel seems to have been the main issue so its worth noting that Guevors/Raymans/Mysticninjas kernels redressed this for most ICS users.
CM10 is very much an alpha as suggested, however Eos3 and Raymans versions are very much improved. Eos3 being at the most polished and advanced stage.
Makelegs is working on CM10 based Jellybro and has made some improvements.
As for performance - ive been real impressed with Jellybean, even with the slowly but surely disappearing bugs. I would honestly suggest giving Eos3 or Raymans JB a go.
Just make sure you are on one of the latest recoveries, full wipe as always, and read the OPs to make sure you have all the files you need for a hassle free experience (ie gapps for all JB builds & the Super SU flashable zip for Raymans)
You can always flash back to ICS based builds if your not happy.....just remember to have an ICS compatable kernel stored for flashing if you do.
And dont use rom manager

Samsung galaxy s plus - Installing new custom rom question

Hello members,
First of all I'm new here and my English can be a bit bad, sorry for that.
My question is probably already asked but I couldn't find it, a link to the thread will be helpful.
So what is the problem?
I want to install a custom rom but I don't really know how to do it.
First of all:
- I have an Samsung Galaxy S Plus.
- I want a Custom rom that is working properly and bug free for 99.9%
- I am not an complete noob, I know how to flash with Odin, Root my phone, etc. etc.
I have already done some research, but must I do a Hard Reset to install a new rom? Can I get my applications and personal settings back? (I made a back up) How do I get it back?
Which Custom rom's are almost bug free?
-Broodrom Rc5?
-Cranium Rc9?
- Others?
Thank you for helping me:good:,
At-
PS: Again sorry for the bad grammar.
i9001
Hi my friend. I also own a i9001.
1. There are some different kinds of roms. do you like Cyannomgen or Aokp based rom for 4.0.4 or a gingerbread rom (2.3.6) with launchers and kernels with overclock or underlock.
2. Gigabread is the best rom for me. It is 2.3.6. and it has every rom's best specs.
3. untill now has released CM9 build 7 and CM9 beta 2 by ivendor wich are very smooth and have fixed camera bugs ( not everything)
I dont like 2.3.6.custom roms with ics launcher because i think that they are heavy for our device and eat a lot of Ram memory....

I like both Cynagen and Aokp. I also like a rom based on 4.0.4 more than 2.3.6.
Can you tell me more about the different rom's and how to install them?
Every version of 4.0.4. is based on CM9 or aokp, but dev have put their own changes. And when there is a new version of cm9 or aokp they update their roms. If u want a rom based on i9300 I strongly recomend you Rem-ICS, a different 4.0.4 Paranoid. There are and some others roms, whicj I have not tried, but only minnor differences there are. Paranoid and Rem thre are th most famous and on other devices.
However there are a lot of option on Roms. Check them out at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1270
Installation of cm9 or aokp rom.
1. You will need custom recovery for cm9: twrp or CMW5 or CMW6
2. Wipe data and cache.
3. Flash update*.zip.
4. Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM9 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.
5. Reboot phone.
6. After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
Don't use titan back up.

Fist of all, read the wiki:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001
Then you have to install a custom recovery, you can follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776095
With this urls u will understand how dev is working. Inspite of the fact that they are for gingerbread they are very usesful for a beginer..
But cynomgen is very is to instal and to use..

I can really really recommend the CM9 ICS ROMs by arco and ivendor. Check their respective threads to see if the remaining bugs affect you and if they don't or hardly do use these versions instead of modded stock ROM.
I currently have arco's Alpha 7 installed and it's so much better than the Gingerbread Samsung firmwares, even the debloated ones.
I agree with you. I think that only gigabread is the best modifited 2.3.6. The others 2.3.6 use launchers like halo, go and I think that they are lagy.. So try a 4.0.4 and since the last edition of cm9 only fm radio is not working. Usb tethering is improved and 80% of camera is working...
However a bug is battery life, and if you use a lot wifi and 3g it will drain a lot of battery

Thank you guys, i'm going to install cm9!
Edit: What are the difference between cm 7.2 and 9? I can't see any differences on videos.
Cm 7.2 is stock based?
Cm9 is based on 4.0.4 and cm7 is based on 2.3.7. Install cm9.not cm7...

AOKP JB OR CyanogenMod 10

AOKP JB OR CyanogenMod 10
WHICH ONE DO YOU PREFER!!!
I use CM9 constantly for stability till CM10 is more stable though AOKP 4.0.4 I used that for more than a month and really liked the features so most of the time for stability I pick CM and for more (on board/stock) features I pick AOKP. Playing around with AOKP 4.1.1 it was unstable at the time but it should have gotten better but all the features that I missed and were missing from CM10 were there though CM10's build was a little more stable than AOKP 4.1.1.
Since they're both not 100% RC/stable beta then it all comes down to who gets better stability support first so you have to test them yourself and most of the great devs on our forums are keeping us up to date from the actual source. Remember more people work on CM than AOKP but like what AOKP stands for its a "Kang" of the features you like. Personally if AOKP has the stability as CM has then I would stick to AOKP.
You would just have to test it yourself or else it will be another this vs this thread and it will go on non stop. I flash a lot of things on my phone to keep testing which one I like CM9 -> CM10 -> AOKP 4.1.1 -> CM10 -> CM9
I think CM10 right now is smooth and nice, AOKP 4.1.1 is getting there but I always go back to CM9 when I need important calls or I am driving and using GPS because you don't want a random reboot to happen.
Overall I would just do a nandroid backup and flash away, if anything messes up then revert back. :good:

[Q] CyanogenMod 10 or Venoms

Hi,
Read the [OP] of each one.
Better still,make a nandroid backup of your current ROM,and flash the ROM you are inquiring about.
You are the only one who can judge how good a ROM is.

I'm with you...
CyanogenMod 10 is undergoing rapid changes, sometimes newer builds break some function in older builds (e.g. mms). Hard to make conclusion based on that. Imo if you want stability, use ViperS as daily driver. Make nandroid backups of your ViperS before installing CM10, of course.
Matter of Personal Preference!
As our friend malybru said, you have to flash both ROMs then decide for yourself. I have flashed and tested many ROMs myself. Gotta admit it's a matter of personal preference after all.
I come from ARHD. Now I'm using bruce's CM10 Android 4.1.2 latest build (October 27, 2012). This "IS" by far the fastest, most complete, most advanced Custom ROM I have ever used. WIth V6 Supercharger and latest version of GApps, It's amazing how everything works perfect with this ROM.
As you already know, CM10 is an AOSP Based ROM, where m0narx's ViperS is Sense Based.
VipersS uses Android 4.0.3 ICS as it's core system + Sense UI 4.1. This is an amazing Sense Based ROM.
CM10 uses Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean and it's PURE Android. IMO this one is more advanced and it's faster + I love AOSP UI.
Both ROMs get updates now and then, but again remember that CM10 is under ongoing development. So speaking of "Daily Driver" this might not be a wise choice, unless you like to test and experience.
Both ROMs are rooted and highly customizable. Flash both of them and you'll know.

[Q] New Rom

Hi ...i have been searching for some time now for a stable JB rom..any suggestions? have looked at Eos 3 and Eos 4 but this is the first flash on my transformer and wanted input.Also where do you download Eos at ?? . looking at all the options they have and i am totally confused with build #
I would like to see Jb perform much better than Ics ..any help would be great
Thanks
EOS3 #81 with KATKernel #69 is my recommendations atm - That is JB 4.1.2
EOS4 is fairly new, a newer build of JB but has a few problems atm
If you want a fast, smooth, bug free ROM, go for EOS3 #81
4.1 is slower than 4.2 for me. TeamEOS's 4.2.2 is the best thing my tablet has seen in a long time. As stated above, there may be bugs as it's newer but I haven't experienced any show-stopper bugs or anything annoying.
You can get it from their official thread.
I have not had any bugs other than audio loss after some sleep (fix with the K.A.T Toolbox) on the EOS 4 latest ROM.
EOS 3 is stable, have not run it in a while though.
I was running the PA/CM hybrid of Mattmanwrx and it was stable.
new rom
Thanks for the replies ang info...think I will give EOS 3 a try.I was leaning that way have heard 4.2 had some bugs also might look at ray fx

Chose stable custom rom for my sis

Hello people
My sister is considering flashind custom rom on her SGS Advance. And because I'm not familiar with Samsung devices (I have two Sony :>)
I would like to ask you to help me chose the most stable and fully functional custom ROM.
At the moment she has stock JB installed but it has some freezes and doesn't run very well.
What can you recommend? It doesn't have to be the nevest android.
I think I would chose between SkimKat 4.4, CyanogenMod 11 by Team Canjica and VanirAOSP 4.4.4. I know those are very good custom roms.
Can you tell me if there are any issues with those? like reboots, not working features?
If you say custom ROMs, there is no ROM which is bug free but there are stable ROMs.
Stability depends on how and what you use. All 4.4 ROMs have reached to a state where you can use them for daily use.
I am Using CM11 nightly 20140614 and dont have any problems.
All the ROMs have their dev and Q/A threads, you can check them for the most stable builds and the working/non working functionality.
Try the latest vanir aosp its fast, fluid and stable...
For me its the most stable rom yet
Well SlimKat seems to be bugless.
VanirAOSP has some bugs with SystemUI
Go for the slimkat(final). It's the smoothest, fastest rom for our phone.

Test all roms to see which rom fit for you
CM 10.1
Wysłane z WOO-Phablecika 4.2.2...
Vanir is the best!
AOKP 4.2.2 by PV after uninstalling and reinstalling calendar is stable.
Wysłane z AOKP-fonika 4.2.2...
I'd have to go with Vanir. Everything just works and lag is virtually non-existent. The only downside I can see is slightly shorter battery life (could be just my phone though). One advantage that i love is it has it's own updater so it's not much of a hassle to get the latest fixes and improvements!
Another option for her would be to stay with stock JB bit change her kernel to CoCore.

More performance = more battery drain.
@lozohcum : How old is she? She want a girl theme too?
After testing almost every ROM, i think that CM10.1 is the most stable(with good battery backup)...
Liquid smooth 3.2 smooth as liquid with all customizations
just battery backup is 15 to 17 hr is matter

Yeah, you should try this. Cm 10.1 is awesome!
I think u can choose between VanirAOSP or AOSP from j.team.. The last one is disscontinued but its 90% finished and 100% stable.
U can choose one of them, or, simpli, test both because testing is the only (exactly) way to know if ROM is for you (or sister).
See all!
