Rooted Now what - Asus Transformer TF700

Ok im been rooted for a few days now ....... well now im getting bored w. It anythng else can i. Do with it......

Well what have you done on it so far that required root?
Rooting gives you access to the system partition so you can do full backups with apps like titanium and freeze apps to disable them, etc.
Unlocking is where it is at if you want to mod it further and install custom roms, themes etc....

Maybe simply enjoy using your device?

Yeah that's what my girlfriend said but I don't know I thought maybe I could do more with it like make it fly or something......

Rooting doesn't enable you to install custom roms? What's the point then? LOL

You can download an Ad-blocker app to block ads from the web and in a variety of apps. You can install BusyBox. More interestingly, you have access to the system partition and you can change sounds etc. there. You can get browser2ram which will increase the speed and responsiveness of the default browser, something I highly reccomend. You can also get LagFix which supposedly makes animations at least appear smoother.
Do backups of your system, app data, apps etc. with Titanium backup as already mentioned by sdbags.
A personal favorite is the ability to use the PS3 sixaxis controller with the tablet, which is only possible through the sixaxis app which require root. Hope these suggestions gives you something to at least fiddle and have fun with

HBO GO for Transformer??

Does anyone know how to get HBO Go working on the Transformer.... I can install it on my Nook Color, my eLocity A7, etc, but it won't let me install on the Transformer - anyone know why or how to get around this?
Thanks!
They don't support the OS. Unless you want to **** with APK editing and whatever else they might try, wait until the TF and the app both support ICS.

Porting prime apps

i have started to port tf201 apps to our tfs and i think it will work since i got the battery widget and mynet to work on our tfs, so please share what you know about modifying apks and i will try to get filemanager systemui and other stuff over.
I put together an installable apk for the Asus MyWater2 (orca) wallpaper by pulling it from a system dump, deodexing it, signing it, and zip aligning it. The wallpaper installed and worked without issue on my TF101 since minimum supported API version for the wallpaper equates to Android 2.2
I used smali/baksmali to deodex the files from the system dump and instructions for signing and zip aligning can be adapted from the 2nd post in this thread.
To make installable do you have to sign and zipalign? I just deodexed and copied to system/app. Im having some problems deodexing some files, mycloud.apk.

Attached is an installable apk for the Asus Battery Widget from the Prime and a screenshot of it in action on my TF101 with dock (it's the one on the left). I pulled it from a Prime dump, deodexed it, signed it, and zipaligned it. Remember that you need to allow installation of non-Market applications (Settings -> Applications -> Unknown sources). If you download it straight to your TF101, remember that you need to use a File Manager to install it and not the Downloads application.
I'm really not too impressed by its looks and still prefer the one I created myself (on the right). If you're interested, my battery widget can be found over in this thread.

You keep talking about Mynet, but what actually changed with Prime on this app ?

Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
Checked the screenshot for the Prime's MyNet version.
The music, photo and video selection buttons are no longer on top. It now appears to be in a configurable drop-down menu below the server selection menu in the left column, and there's a search function next to the settings drop-down menu, and a new blue/black theme.

there are a few new apps in the 4.0.3 prime update
might be more difficult to port due to the ics framework but its probably worth a try

A few apps run out of the box from this update on TF101 HC
Ever think that when we get ICS, odds are apps we share in common will probably be the same version/build as from the Prime?

Google Plus Lag

Has anyone had noticeable lag while using G+, and if so were you able to correct it. I'm on. 26 and rooted, also tried using performance mode.
I didn't experience this type of lag when using the prime.
Edit: even with a clean wipe it still lags.

No lag for me. works fine.
Had the same lag - really annoying: when swiping, each time an image is loaded it stuttered a lot ...
Because a lot of apps just did not work smooth I swapped my Asus for an iPad3 and G+ was working very smooth on there ...
But I could not stand the closed Apple eco system, so I also returned the iPad3.
Now I don't have any tablet anyore ... just waiting for a better Android Tablet.
My question is: Did I have a bad Infinity and do other Infnity uses have a smooth experience with G+?
So should I just try with an other Infinity?
I saw a review on youtube mentioning the lag for stuff like this and the guy said it had to do with the contention between the android firmware and the tegra drivers. They dont like playing well together in those situations. But the hope is that JB (when we get it) will be much better integrated.

Yeah, I hope JB will fix this, and plan on unlocking and running cm 10 when the devs get a running build to see if it is truly 'buttery smooth'.

[Q] Should I upgrade to JB (flash user)?

I know Flash is not officially supported on JB but how well is it working?
I use flash a lot and it is one of the main reasons I didn't get an ipad. I use flash for video but also on financial sites.
I use it to catch up on TV Shows.
Is this the end of updates for me? Or at least till 99.9% has switched to HTML 5.
For example : myspass.de (German TV) is this playing well on JB?
Thanks!
There is way to install Flash on JB see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774336

I use it to watch the live races from MotoGP site as well as others like vipbox.tv and I've just updated to JB on my TF700 that already had Flash installed on ICS and I'm currently re-watching the motogp race from the past weekend with no worries.

Fyi Dolphin browser has turned off flash and is strictly using html5. Even if you have flash installed it will not be recognized and it appears that there is no way off turning it on. Stock browser still allows flash so just go there.

You shouldn't use Dolphin because of their track record of recording your every move. Just saying.
Stock browser still works with flash just fine. Even after update to jb.

In order to enable flash player in dolphin browser you need to navigate to data/data/mobi.mgeek.Tunny/Browser/shared_prefs/ using root explorer and delete mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml.

In need of data2sd advice

Hi, I'm considering trying out data2sd since I'm quite fed up with lag on my infinity so I would like some advice, or rather just some confirmations.
Does data2sd fix lag in apps like chrome, which is unusable completely for me. In fact any browser is awful on infinity except the stock and yes I'm using browser2ram on CromiX.
I even experience lag sometimes when I click on a text box. It takes several seconds for SwiftKey to open, and sometimes even the text input is laggy. This applies to all apps I have installed.
Even Gmail can be laggy while selecting emails or switching tags. Absolutely frustrating experience.
Overall, how does data2sd feel for you and what difference have you noticed using it?
Btw, I'm planning on getting a SanDisk 32gb class 10 micro sd for this, so is the process for Cromi just selecting the kernel in the installer or do I have to flash the mount data2sd file before installing the Rom?
Thanks in advance guys

Sounds like you have got some issues there. You shouldn't be having that sort of lag on CROMi-X
Have you done a clean install to see what it is like before installing swiftkey. Last time I used it it had become quite laggy but that was ages ago. I use the google JB keyboard now which is now superior to swiftkey in all respects other than maybe the prediction engine.

Thanks, I'm gonna try that. I was actually planning to do a full wipe and clean install since that usually fixes things, but I'm wondering if data2sd can make my tablet with your rom even faster, especially regarding the browsers' lag

People say it doesn't really do much on the latest version of CROMi-X and can be more to maintain. Like I said version 4.6.9 literally flies for me and most people.

Hi,
I must say I have these problems, too.
I even put my infinity on local e-bay like site to sell it as i am just frustrated and annoyed by it.
I have to admit I haven't done a clean install for some time now. I think since the first version.
So, it sounds like i will need to do a clean install once again.
But I am worried about one thing. I have done clean installs on every single ROM i have used on all my devices, and the story is always the same.
Yes, experiance is much better, but only for limited time. When i install like 50 apps and have all sorts of stuff going on - the tablet just can't cope with it. It is specially noticeable when the tablet is in sleep mode without WIFI or SYNC. When i wake it up, press wifi and sync - whooaaa, i can just leave it there for some time and forget about it. Than again, sometimes it is just normal. Until i open browser, that is.
Well, anyway, i just wanted to say, that after some time thing go bad again.
I will try clean install right now, to prove me wrong
Will report in a week .
