I know it sounds dumb, but it's a super lightweight Linux distro built to run on a low performance PC. Could it be run on the TF700? I'm assuming yes, but I don't know how people get Linux distros to work with tablets.

Hi TF300T owners, I just wanted to know if someone did a comparison for the performance is there any real improvement ? What about apps side ? Shifting between screens and lags ? We want video showing that I searched YouTube but nothing there !!!
I'm TF700 owner but I'm really interesting about the TF300 JB update since I feel my device is not stable nether not faster than Nexus 7

Feel the same way about the TF300

You got the JB for your TF300 ? Does nexus 7 far better ?
Sent Via TF700T through XDA-app
Well, i did have a little play around with a nexus 7 in a store. I don't own it but it did feel much smoother.

I just did a lil video install and quick overview of the one JB ROM available for the tf300.

Its JB HyDRO ROM. Much faster and smoother than stock JB.

Hey, this looks very fast room with snappy and very smooth performance, I wish we can get same for TF700

There are two kernels, mystical and clesmyn that work for the infinity, and both look to work with JB. Whats the difference between them?

1.The clesmyn is more advance and actively updating, it should works well with the best rom called "Clean Rom", including the ability to over clock/undervolt (coming soon, under testing), over clocked GPU (graphic) to 650.
2. The mystical kernel is just pure stock with no other features except for these 2: able to change screen density and carrier.
So the mystical will not provide any performance gain, but the clesmyn will.
I know I might get flamed for this, but I don't feel like ROMing. With that in mind, are there tweaks that I can do to make my TF700 run any faster?
Thanks

With pure stock, no root and locked bootloader - enable force 2gpu in settings ->developer option. ...That about it!
With pure stock rooted and locked bootloader - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1758160 , and install browser2ram for smooth browsing.
But the true performance, with smooth, fast and snappy - unlocked and rooted with Cleanrom, Clemsync kernel and data2sd. It's like driving a race car versus a ford Pinto.
Ok so I'm a bit new to the community in terms of tablet hardware and wanted to understand the concept of overclocking now from what I've heard the Asus tf300t has the capability to be increased to 1.5ghz it's stock is 1.3 I believe so my question is:
what are the basic benefits of overclocking.
How do you go about doing it? (app, or what not)
What damages can be done if done incorrectly. (boot loop or brick)
If this isn't the right place to post this direct me to someplace better please! Thank you!

You'll need to flash another Kernal. There are various guides on this forum depending on what firmware you're on

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
Benefit is basically making your tablet faster and smother under heavy tasks such as gaming. Light tasks wont be affected much.
In order to over clock, you need custom kernel and a software that allows you to over clock or under clock. My favorite is set CPU which is paid ( there are tons of CPU app)
If you over clock too much, tablet will become very unstable and also CPU can overheat much easier which can lead to hardware failure. I recommend you to overclock up to 1.6 max if you ever gonna over clock.

bottom line yes. its a night and day difference on this device. at least mine.

I second this when playing games. I do also see a very slight difference in normal day to day use. Just dont overvolt, that i heard is bad for the chip and greatly shortens the length of the chip. Overclocking isnt as bad for it.

Ah ok so you do need a custom kernel/rom in order to gain access to overclocking. Well I've had problems before with flashing custom roms(soft bricked) and I'm kinda hesitant about it but I mean I've ran emulation on 1.3ghz and it runs smooth like for epsxe. I guess it's a matter of preference really?

I think that it is worth to unlock if you use a 1tb hard disk. It is more useful to overlock GPU as it will boost your perfomance in UI and games.

Overclock improved my tablet experience
When I was running cleanrom 3.4.1 and Unters TF300T 10.4.4.25 Kernel I had it O/C'ed to 1.6.
The ui and games like beach buggy blitz , dead trigger ran noticeably smoother .
Now I'm bac on stock android 4.2.1 from Asus website its nowhere near as smooth probably not even as smooth as stock 4.1.2 imo.
ya im on cm10.1 at the moment. over clocked to 1.6ghz currently. i find whether it was clean rom 3.4.4 or cm10.1 1.6ghz seems to be my tablets sweet spot. with my tablet and dock together on cm10.1 i have lasted like 4 days unplugged laying around with daily use for alittle bit. grand theft auto final fantasy dead trigger. all play so smooth.
Tergrak over clock let's you over clock any ROM, you don't need a custom ROM or kernel just root. Its on the play store.

+1 for overclocking. You can run the tablet at the lower speeds to save the battery when just messing around but you have the option to turn it up when needed. I overclock every device I own if possible. :good:

are you sure it works? TF300 is not listed on "supported devices" and one review from this tablet said that this tablet is not supported

Hmmm sorry bout that. Your right it looks like its only for Samsung chip sets. I do apologize, I'll see if there is a similar app and I'll try tegrak on my nexus 7

The only time clock my TF300 is I am gaming. Very smooth and fast!:good:
Am I right in thinking the tf700 is not using the 3.4 android kernel? my xperia s has been updated to use this with the latest firmware, and for whatever reason (im no android dev!) it seems to apparently be the reason the phone has gone from pretty laggy to very snappy indeed. is there any reason Asus have not done this? is there a newer version incoming, or is this device just not a priority anymore? (which would be a shame as its not that old and works pretty damn well to me, but could always be better!)
thanks for any info!

Asus depends on NVidia, and it's unlikely that we'll see any newer kernel for our device than 3.1.
thanks. as i said, im no expert, but could this be done by devs without nvidia, or are they holding on to the nessessary code?
also, with the experimental 3.8 kernel sources available, and it supporting 'third party tegra drivers', will this benefit us, and could it be built independant of asus?

It should be possible to add support for the Transformers to newer kernel versions based on the published 3.1 source, but since there were major changes related to ARM device handling in recent kernels (device tree) it won't be easy.
would there be benefits, if some one were able to do it? as i said, the folk over on the xperia forums are very happy we have a 3.4 kernel, and claim all manner of improvements, which are noticable in the new build, are down to 3.4. thanks

Some things may get better, but don't expect miracles.
is anyone known to be working on this, or even 3.8? any enhancement would be great, however small XD

You could start researching yourself - are there any Tegra 3 Android devices with a newer kernel than 3.1?
I wish i had the time, maybe when my degree is over! i guess the HTC One Tegra version may use a newer kernel? Or maybe it will do when 4.3/5.0/whatever comes out, or the Google Experience versions may do when they ship i guess?
