I am running stock.
After 4.2.1 I have had alot of issues with bluetooth. I found a discussion post the advice was to do a factory reset. I did that process and it did not correct the issue. I then found another post that had instructions on using adb to change the permissions of a bluetooth file. That corrected the issue. However, I am still having major issues with bluetooth.
Bluetooth seems to loose connection to devices and then I have to turn it unpair/pair to get it to start again. It works then for a few minutes and dies again. This is horrible for me as I use my tablet for aviation and pull ADS-B data into it.
Not to mention root was completely screwed up in the factor reset. I used voodoo root keeper & superuser combination I had RK backup root as usual. Did a factory restore, and now root is completely messed up. No big deal. I don't use root anyways.
But this Bluetooth issue is unbearable! The only thing I can think of now is following the instructions to downgrade version (reflash) and try to upgrade again and see if the problem persists. Any ideas?

You dont need to keep a root from 4.1.1 to 4.2.1 anymore. It is possible to root 4.1.1 and 4.2.1 now so that may be your answer. Try unpairing both devices, restarting both, and pairing them again. I was having issue to but unpairing them, making sure they were not in the records of eachother, and repaired fixed it. Also, I believe if the device is a PS3 controlled, the support for it has been dropped, sadly.

Appreciate the reply. I've already tried unpairing/repairing. That's the only way to get it to work for a short time. The device is a Garmin GDL-39 ADS-B (Aviation Weather & Traffic Receiver). It worked without issues in 4.1.1.
I'm thinking about reflashing 4.2.1 and seeing if that corrects the issue. Bluetooth is acting very erratic and a factory reset did not fix it.

Didn't work so I have downgraded to 4.1.1 and seem to be working fine again. I did a google search of "4.2.1 bluetooth issues" and found a plathora of hits. Sounds like the Bluetooth stack is broken in 4.2.1 and fixed in 4.2.2.

Maybe so but it would also depend on the drivers put in by ASUS. Some people have no problems with bluetooth whatsoever but some do. Hopefully ASUS will put us on 4.2.2 in a couple months with Key Lime pie supposedly being announced/released to the world in June/July.

Highly possible. IDK. Sucks that 4.1.1 works and 4.2.1 doesn't. On my tablet, I had all kinds of Bluetooth issues when it upgraded to 4.2.1. At first I couldn't even get bluetooth to turn on, until having to the workaround mentioned on another post on here (permissions set wrong on a bluetooth library file). All this with being on a stock rom and without doing anything special (I was rooted, but never actually used any programs that required root. Just had no need.)

I have 2 TF700's in my family. They both have the problem.
The stock browser and alot of third party browsers keep giving me this error "browser not responding" and then gives me the option to "wait" or "close".
Is this common among the TF700's?
Is there a solution?

I am guessing you are pure stalk? then yes it seems to be a stock Rom problem. You can usually click "wait" and it will come back but not always. The only solution I know is flashing back to ICS and rooting, or unlocking(which voids ASUS warranty), flash a custom recovery, and flash CleanRom. cyanogen, or a different custom rom.
Tylor
Are you saying that many others with this tablet that are running stock asus software have this problem?
it's hard to believe since this tablet got such rave reviews.
BTW what's the difference between "unlocking" and "rooting"?

Not all people seem to report this problem but I never had success with the stock rom. And yes quite a few others have similar problem but not all. I have heard the newest version of Chrome has fixed lots of lag browsing wise, try it if you have not already. When the tf700 first came out it was the first of its kind, HD screen, Keyboard Dock, Decent sized CPU and GPU. But being so introduced new problems.
Rooting gives you administer privileges and it will make you be able to install browser2ram which increases the speed of your browser tremendously.
Unlocking is unlocking the bootloader, which voids the asus warranty, and allows you to install a custom recovery, which then allows you to install other roms. Custom roms like Cromi and Cyanogen come prerooted. Custom roms fix many issues but also create some new ones.

Your right, Chrome does work better, but Chrome doesn't support plugins like ( ie. flash) which makes some content not work.
I'm guessing rooting on the tablets are different than rooting on the smartphones since you need to install custom recovery in order to root a smartphone.
So what issues do the custom roms bring to the table?; I hope the advantages are worth the trouble.

Rooting does not require unlocking your boot loader. It just requires you to flash stock ice cream sandwich, root, then install ota rootkeeper, once you have that done you can upgrade to the latest android and restore the root. You cannot root Jelly bean directly. You dont need a custom recovery to root ICS, but you cannot root Jelly Bean directly .
Custom roms bring few issues to the table as long as you follow the procedures. You must first use ASUS' unlock tool, then install a recovery via fastboot, and you should be good. However if you consider unlocking I would look through all the posts of people who have messed up their devices so you dont make the same mistake. As long as you have the 10.4.4.25 bootloader and a jellybean compatible recovery you wont have problems. That seems to be the main issue when people brick their tf700's. People installing jelly bean when they do not have compatible recoveries / boot loaders.

The only custom rom WILL NOT give you any trouble but 100% faster and smoother is Clean Rom (ppl called it CROMI) currently at version 3.4.4. This is stock rom with supercharge installed. It will be night and day between stock and CROMI. You would be glad and kick yourself in the bud that you didn't use this rom sooner! and your stock browser once again will be the best browser.

You can't compare phone S3 with Asus tablet. They have different hardward bootloder etc..There is NO ODIN for tf700. In S3 you need to Odin insecure bootloader in order to root and flash custom recovery. There is no loop hole in tf700 while you're on JB (Asus patched), but there is in ICS. So if you just want root, you need to downgrade back to ICS. If you're on JB the only way you can root or flash custom recovery is to unlock your device, this allow you to use fastboot function in JB bootloader to flash custom recovery (TWRP,CWM), then use custom recovery to flash root(SuperSU) or pre-rooted custom rom.

That is a very personal decision. It was worth it to me. Instead of getting annoyed by my TF700 a dozen times a day and enjoying a warranty I may never need, I now have a tablet that runs like a dream!!
And the support the dev and others on the CROMI thread provide puts Asus to shame - easily.
When you use the Asus unlock tool it phones home to Asus servers. From then on they know that your specific tablet is unlocked. Also says so on the boot screen. And no way to reverse it, btw.

Personally I dont know any advantage on ICS over JB as I never put ICS on my tablet. Cromi is the stock asus rom, broken apart, then rebuilt. It contains the same layout and some asus stock apps however since it has different internals and all bloatware is gone is makes most if not all lag disappear. Yes we are disappointed but it is easily solved after you put a different Rom on it. Also the support for Cromi is MUCH better tehn any support ASUS could provide. To be mad at ASUS does no good. The only option if you are that disappointed it to send them back or modify the tablet yourself. Cromi and cyanogen put the stock rom to shame, and both have better support.

PS: and yes to root you must revert back to ICS.

You can always wait and hope for the JB 4.2 release. The TF300 got it and a lot of owners seem to report much better performance and less lag. Compared to the stock 4.1 of course....

For me and most of us here, yes unlocking is well worth it.
and NO, you don't need root to flash back to ICS, just download Asus full firmware ICS .30 version, unzip it then copy it to the root of your MICROsdcard and it will flash back to ICS (some cases, you need to rename the file to EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip then boot into stock recovery in order to work) . Once you're back on ICS, debugfs root tool will help you to achieve root.
Thanks for the education guys.
Can CROMI ( CleanRom) play flash content, though?
What are the other advantages, other than being smooooge?
Is CROMI made specifically for the TF700?

During the installation of Cromi, sbdags put the flashplayer into the setup, so yes flash is supported on Cromi, by default unless you choose not to install it. Cromi is made for other devices but Cromi in the tf700 part of the forums is made specifically for the tf700. The speed is the main advantage, also it is pre rooted, and the support if you have a problem is great.

Hi all,
This is another JB 4.2.1 Custom rom that will work for our tf700 code name "Hairy Bean" - **Unleash The Beast!**". Created by developer flumpster, the same dev that helped sdbags with the new updated TWRP2.4.4.0. I have been running this rom for a bout a week and no issue so far. For more details you can find them here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674827
Full credit by Flumpster.
Just a few highlights:
1. The latest Android JB 4.2.1 build.
2. Custom kernel to work with data2sd or without. (selectable during installation)
3. Init.d scripting enabled in kernel ramdisk
4. Work with TF201, TF300 and TF700 (selectable during installation, also for WW or US)
5. Dual Launcher - Stock 4.1.1 or 4.2.1 (Make sure you disabled Animation in settings-> developer options for smoothness).
6. Custom background and a lot of options during installation.
Pretty simple to flash. Here is how to:
1. Flash sdbags "Bootloader and patched TWRP 2.4.4.0 DOWNLOAD" can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223918
2. Use the new updated TWRP to flash Hairybeen 2.11 can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674827
That's it, enjoy and be graceful that we have another rom to play with.
Oh ..sh...t , I mistaken posted in a wrong section, please move to General Section. Sorry people.
Either way I may try it out. Can it be flashed over the stock TF700 rom that sbdags posted? and can it,if I want to later,be flashed over with the new Cromi when it is released?

yes, just wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash it, very simple.
Edit: Rule of thumb is every time you switch from one custom rom to another you should wipe data (may not need too). However, we can do it this way without data wipe.
1. Take a nandroid backup of your current sdbags stock rom
2. Wipe cache/davlik cache and flash Hairybean rom
To go back without data wipe:
1. Restore sdbags stock rom from nandroid backup.
2. Flash sdbags new 4.2 cromi.
Hi mate,
like you already said this should be posted in the General forum.On the other hand you encourage the cross-flashing (that rom was developed for a different device) wich imho is not good.
If the rom developer thinks that his rom is safe for the TF700T should feel free to open a thread here in the Development forum.

I already spoke to developer and he confirmed it's working for tf700. I won't post here unless I tried it myself first. In the installation, there is an option for tf700.
I've tested this for flumpster. It works on the TF700 fine.
It's based from the TF300 10.6.1.8 source with a few things nicked from the TF700 rom.
It's a similar and good alternative to CROMi-X

Am I over here also? I must have missed this thread
I never intended to release this onto the tf300 or tf700 as I don't really have the time to give support on the three threads.
I made it compatible tho as some of my beta testers own the devices and wanted to use it on them also.
Let me know how the ROM works for you and if the new 2.2 release is OK.
Getting Boot Loop
I installed per instructions and it is constantly booting to the ASUS flash screen.
I thought this might be the 30-60 minute "letting the rom casche" as mentioned in the instructions - but it has been doing it for over an hour.
Any help or should I just re-flash TWRP and re-flash my previous rom?

Which kernel did you flash when you whent through the set up?
I first tried the recommended kernel but got stuck on the Asus screen boot looping, so I then tried the stock kernel from the kernel selection and that worked just fine.
Unfortunately any stock kernel other than what is installed with ROM causes the screen to go wack and font to shrink

Check/edit the dpi settings (lcd_density) in /system/build.prop.
The issue is that the kernel offered with this ROM includes the 240dpi lock in init.04.rc and the default Asus build.prop is stuck at 160dpi. So once you unlock the kernel (by using one of the ones in cromi-x like that's or mine) you get 160dpi. Do as_that says and edit the DPI setting in the build.prop to fix.
I have spoken with flumpster about this and he will probably update to allow multi DPI settings to the tf700. Also this version is out of date. 2.2 is out now
I understand that the latest tf700 firmware by asus suppose to fix the hdmi out issue with playing videos fullscreen. Im on the latest CROMi 4.6.4 rom which is based on the latest firmware from asus but I am still experiencing the same problem with the hdmi out. Is anyone experiencing this problem and is there a known fix?

I haven't updated CROMi-X to the latest TF700 firmware yet. That will take time as I have to rebuild everything. I'll start work on it this weekend.

Thanks for the prompt response. Look forward to your next release of CROMi. Great work!
I am experiencing a problem with watching videos via hdmi connected to my TV. I no longer get full 1080p and the image is cropped. I know this issue was fixed in an earlier CROMi firmware release. I am currently on the latest ODEX version of CROMi 5.02 rom which is running like a beast except for this hdmi issue. Is anyone experiencing this problem and is there a known fix?

This issue started when the first 4.2.1 firmware arrived and afaik was never fixed.And if it's a driver issue i don't think that sbdags can fix it easily... we should thank Asus for this, with ICS was scaling just fine but somehow they (or NVidia) managed to break it with the JB update.

Was wondering if there is any chance to get this ROM ported or converted to the TF700t. A (Lollipop 5.0 ROM)
I loaded it on my TF300t and it is wonderful so early! but, I would like it on my TF700t.
Beautiful ROM he has done a nice job. Hope we can see it here.
Any information on the how to's or if at all possible would be greatly appreciated.

I agree, that would be wonderful. But since timudru has never developed for the 700, I would be very surprised if he would start now....
Katkiss on TF700t
Have heard some have Lollipop running on the TF700t from the TF300t forum.
The problem is getting the right CM11 kernel from kitkat.
Install= Katkiss ROM (5.0) + CM11 kernel + gapps (5.0)= Lollipop
However I can not find the right kernel. "GRIMLOCK and THAT" kernel do no work
Boots to the animation but loops. Without right kernel tablet just goes into vibration frenzy
Any suggestions?

Josh he sent me this in a message.
Yeah that's what I did for the TF201, using grimlock kernel + Katkiss lollipop init scripts & binaries in the kernel ramdisk.
I wouldn't recommend using a full CM11 / KitKat kernel zip.
There are a few things changed in the lollipop ramdisk
best thing would be to use the kernel binary from the KitKat kernel then repack it with lollipop ramdisk.
Not sure what it means but if it helps. He now has Lollipop running on I believe 3 ASUS machines. tf101 and TF201 and tf300.
I saw it running beautiful on the TF300.
Hope all goes well.

@_that, @hardslog isn't possible for you to build a version of your kernel with the lollipop ramdisk to try if the katkiss rom could work on a TF700T?

It might work but there other things at play. The TF201 is pretty much the same as the TF300t whereas the TF700 has some subtle differences. Using this method might get it to boot but it could have other issues at play.

There is more to it than that, as the TF700 version of the Grimlock kernel is designed to work with TF700 roms. The kernels themselves (zImage) are the same for the devices but the ROMS are different. The best experience would to be to use TF700 device trees and them compile them with Katkiss to create an LP version of it. That isn't as simple as flipping a switch.
My TF700 is booting Lollipop now

I have TF300t and TF700t also . I love Katkiss Lollipop on my TF300t so I put it on my TF700t to see if it would work. Same thing happened to me. TF700 would not fully boot and on reboot would just buzz. So I wiped, re-flashed KatKiss-5.0_TF300T_014b ROM and then flashed the TF201_CompatibilityPack_LP-5.0_003 (found on the same Katkiss link below). Yeah! it boots. Seems every thing is working (docking, both batteries, camera w/ LED flash and video recording, bluetooth recognized my speakers, adaptive brightness, max CPU 1800 MHz, hdmi) EXCEPT the wifi won't turn on. It just sits at "Turning Wi-Fi on..." Yes I had working on wifi prior.
Those downloads can be found here KatKiss ROM Lollipop 5.0.1_r1 Asus TF300T
I really want this to work. Any info of what can be done or if anybody wants to pick this up.... please? :fingers-crossed:

I flashed a rom for tf300 with a compatibility pack for tf201 (as instructed for tf201 for the tf300 rom) on my tf700 because I figured what the hell and the specs are similar to the tf201. But my what the hell moment got a booting lollipop... just no wifi.

I now have a Booting TF700 With Katkiss lollipop and kernel-that11-lollipop-dirty_signed.zip
I just flashed the kitkass tf201 rom with your kernel and it does boot. The resolution does seem a little off though, but only with the stock launcher. I downloaded apex and it seems to help. But it does boot with working wifi!
Thank you!

I never said this kernel would work for a 201 ?
We would expect the kernel here, NOT to boot on a 201

I think it's about time you release that homebrew of yours. It runs great anyway and I think people are getting desperate to get ANYTHING Lollipop on this tablet.
A TF300 rom with a TF201 comaptability pack and a TF700 kernel?????? Talk abut a ZOMBI!
LMAO!!!!!!
