Best Rom? - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm new to the table and I'm on CleanRom 2.7 (1.8ghz kernel) which is amazing fast! Anyone suggest anything better? Just curious!

Nothing compares/comes close to how great CleanRom is. I've tried all of them, but CleanRom just always outperforms the rest. But this is only my experience. If you really wanna know which is best, you'd have try them all to compare for yourself. And, make decision based on your own experience.

Thanks bro! Your answer is what I wanted to hear!

I've tried all the others but settled on CleanROM, the performance is out of this world

Clean rom Inheretence 2.7 is blazin fast !!

ParanoidAndroid with the Untermensch kernel is working great for me. I've been running it since the day I bought my tablet (2 weeks) and haven't had any issues. I've been getting some great benchmark scores too.

every available version of clean rom has failed to flash for me

and how does cleanrom battery life compare with the stock 4.1.1?

I'm still not fully convinced to root and flash my TF300.
Haven't came across a 100% for sure noob proof guide as to getting to that stage.
I'm not seeing an awful lot of updates for some of the roms, maybe I'm missing something...

Same as you man, seems very complicated compared to my phone.
I mean the tf300 has a quad core lol, it can handle anything with 4.1.1 but I'm a perfectionist gah.

Closed...
The best ROM is the one that works best for YOU, and your personal app selection. What may work for most, may not have the features you need.. Only you can take the time and find what is best.

[Q] The nexus 7, tf300t, and jelly bean.

Does anybody think that with the nexus 7 having similar hardware to the tf300t, we might start seeing more custom roms?
If that's not the case, at least Asus delivers updates on time (no major customization of the UI), and we can unlock the bootloader with the tool provided by them.
It's way better than the strategy used by Motorola (I also have a Defy, great device with a strong community formed around it, but crippled by the official support).

I think they use the same tegra 3 (T30L)

No one knows. Anyone that answers otherwise is just speculating.
theoretically, it should be a reasonably trivial effort to port a Nexus 7 system dump to the TF201/300T. I'd give it a go myself if I didn't have a broken arm at the moment.

Well those specs do claim it uses the T30L. And the transformer 300 does use the T30L
Is the transformer clocked to 1.2GHz or 1.3GHz? Is the nexus 7 clocked higher?

I'd do it too if i knew what i was doing. Looks like were both in trouble. :silly:
Hope both have the dame versiĆ³n of tegra 3 and release Jb for tf300

specs on both tabs are equal apart from memory and screen size obv.
Shame as its half the cost of TF300 and even though its got half the screen size I should have waited! ha ha
It should not take too long to port a N Tab ROM over to our tab, someone on here has already got a JB ROM for the Acer Aconia Tab A500!

Here is a guide on how to convert JB to any device... If I was a dev, I would throw my hat in...
i'm almost sure that asus will update our tf300
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Based on initial tests, the N7 stock rom does not have full usb driver support or sd card. No camera either, so would be either a lot of missed function, or a seriously patched N7 rom and this assumes you never use the dock.
Looks like the TF300 needs its rom and perhaps the key additions from JB patched to it.
Or wait for a JB release, which possibly will happen after the cardless and OTG gimped N7 settles in consumers hands for a few months.
Heh. I'd just like to see even a half-working port just to play around with. All the rest of the gear will come with CM10 anyway

100% Total Plain ICS 4.0.4?

Get my TF300 tomorrow. Is it possible to get 100% plain ICS 4.0.4 on the TF300? The one that would basically come straight from Google and not from Asus?
There are a couple 4.0.4 ROMs available to include CM9 and AOKP. Head over to the development section and check out the posts. Other than that, that's all we have for the 300 at this time.
Well to be honest the stock rom is pretty close to asop.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Yeah after reading some reviews on the TF300 that is one thing they did mention that it pretty much runs stock ICS with only a few things thrown in from Asus...
The transformer pretty much comes with Vanilla ICS, with a few widgets and apps from ASUS which are all completely removable.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda premium
Yeah. Asus devices have very light skins over stock Android. Unlike HTC sense, SAMSUNG touchwiz, or motorblur. This is my first asus device and I'm impressed.

Flashing other custom roms

Since the tf 700 is just about the same as the other ones in hardware (tf300 and tf201) , are their roms or kernels compatible to flag and help this bad boy out ?
Sent from my Gameboy Color
They're not compatible, if you flash a prime or TF300 rom you'll probably brick. However, development for those tablets will help out the TF700 since they are pretty similar.
Hopefully its just A matter of changing the kernel.

I'm sure developers will simply port some of their ROMs overall and have feature parity shortly. There are some changes and drivers they would have to make.

+1 -- it's probably down to the nitty-gritty small details.

the tf700 came out before the galaxy note 10.1

and the galaxy note 10.1 appears to have a much better dev community. I can't help but think i should return my tf700 for a note 10.1
thoughts?
samsung devices have a bigger following. that's it.

I think some of this has to do with the fact that there are slight variations from the 300 to the 700, the 300 has a larger community but we can't just grab those devs since the differences in models are just enough to make it a pain, but the models are close enough that 300 owners probably won't upgrade. Compound this with the Nexus 7 and so many modders got that because its cheap and pure android and you see what we are in. Finally, the tablet just dropped (is about to drop?) in Europe so that shrinks the pool a bit.

How much is an unlocked rom really worth? On phones it's worth a lot because of all the bloatware and need to maximize battery life but on tablets ... most have so little bloatware. I would rather have a much quicker Jellybean than all the Rom support in the world at this current time.

Have u checked that section... Most roms are for the n8000 and not the 8013 (wifi) version... And it doesnt look like its anything special anyways... Lol just sayin

It will get there once JB lands. Just a waiting game pretty much atm.

Wait nevermind, I'm too OCD not to upgrade in that time.
Getting JB a million years earlier should ease the pain.

I am working on getting custom ROMs on this thing and I am starting with JB directly. No use making an ICS custom ROM when JB is coming soon. Its not been easy to get this done. I have a booting JB version but loads of stuff needs fixed. I'd wait for a JB version and use those libs to make a new build with.

I have to agree. Tablets are relatively clean. I have zero desire to do anything beyond the freezing of unneeded apps that I've already done.

It makes sense, though we're all getting antsy over here, waiting for something new to flash.

Tips or tutorials for new tablet user?

I just ordered a tf101 for my father. He is not very good with computers but was interested in a tablet, and I thought it might work for him. He will mainly be using it for email, Craigslist and the Internet.
I own a nexus 7 and an hp touchpad, so I'm familiar with rooting and roms. What is the best bet for a stable rom? Shouldn't need a lot of features, but I would prefer a jelly bean rom.
Secondly are there any good tutorials or hands on guides for someone completely new to android?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
If he is really only going to use it for browsing I would suggest leaving it on the stock rom. Or put it on the Megatron rom, but still I'd only suggest stock. He isn't going to want to call asus support to find out his beloved tablet is not going to have a warranty.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
Well I'm pretty sure it's out of warranty, and he's not going to be calling tech support. (besides me)
Is the stock rom significantly more stable, or what are the advantages to say cm10?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I'm not sure about cm10 but my experiences with JB are all on the Team EOS nightly builds. To be they are the best, everything works and it keeps getting faster and faster. Rayman does build some great stuff though but his updated are not as frequent. I would say give it a play for an hour or 2 and find out what one you like best. For ICS my favorite and best performing rom was Megatron, Team EOS builds have even better performance than that.
