I think that's 2 oxymorons in one short sentence!
The most reliable( =stable) kernel is not going to be the fastest - ever!
And not worrying about ROM comparability is just nonsense - you cannot compare kernels separate of the bootloader/rom they are paired with...
That said, as of now, Hund's kernel on Cromi-X provides the best Quadrant scores (for what it's worth)..... whereas I consider _that's v4 to be the most stable (have been running v5 only for 24 hours, but I'm pretty sure it's just as stable)

That makes a lot of sense. You answered my question even though I made no sense. Thank you very much! I have a few more questions if you don't mind answering
The ROM I'm running is cromi-x but even when I was running stock I have been having wake from suspend issues. When I go to press the unlock button it will some times go to the unlock screen than go back to suspend as if it times itself out when not receiving user input (even when I'm giving input), other times it stays in suspend mode and I have to reset the tablet. Is this one of the common latency issues or is this just my device (or a ROM issue)?
If I want to change the kernel, do I need to reinstall the ROM or is there a simpler solution?
Thanks again

You can switch to another kernel without touching the rom (most developers provide a package that can be installed from a custom recovery) but the kernel must be compatible with the rom currently installed, meaning that you can't install a stock based kernel on a Cyanogenmod rom and viceversa.

You can download the "kernel installer by Sbdags" and they are all compatible with his rom. You may want to wipe both caches.. Good luck..

Sorry to be such a pia stickler, but I again don't quite get your question. Did you have the problem of unresposiveness on wake on stock and you still have it on Cromi-X, the other way around or neither?????
Actually, it's not normal for either: stock or CROMi-X, although the tablet tends to be slow on wake if you have Wifi disabled in sleep because it then updates email and whatnot on wake.
My suspicion though is, that you did not do a clean install, meaning doing a Factory Reset in TWRP before flashing Cromi, going from stock to CROMi-X. If I'm right, backup user aps and data in Titanium Backup, do a Factory Reset in TWRP, then restore your apps and data from TIBu.

I've learned from the TF101 ICS update - be careful what you wish for!!! For those that don't know, my (and others) TF101 has basically become very un-reliable since they introduced ICS.
While I truly *hope* we don't have such issues with the Jelly Bean upgrade, I certainly don't have a lot of confidence in Asus at this point.
I just hope that they don't rush it and test it properly before releasing it and forcing the upgrade on us (which is exactly what they did with the ICS update on the TF101).
I do know that my TF700 has some of the same ICS issues that the TF101 had (OpenGL out of memory errors, for example, which causes your launcher to go "blank")....

Great! Very exciting news to wake up to!
When Firmware actually starts dropping DON'T FORGET TO!!
*Side load your FLASH PLAYER. If you want flash. It will no longer show up in the Playstore any longer
*Revert back whatever modding/altering to system files just in case Rooters. Only if you want your OTAS to actually complete. Or if running a custom rom it wouldn't work anyways as you already know.
*Don't forget to backup your Root with Voodoo Ota Rootkeeper! You will definitely lose root if you don't
Time to obsessively check every 5 minutes for the update!!!

*sighs* I want all my devices to run Jellybean today, here is to hoping it will happen.
As I'd normally recommend rooting myself, I don't think it's necessary in this case. Why not just install .apk with Flash after allowing unknown sources? I believe it should suffice, although I don't know if it's any different with the JB system of permissions.
No need to root to install Flash on Jelly Bean. At least not on the Nexus 7.

I can confirm - my father just bought a Nexus 7 - I emailed the Flash app to him and he was able to install it and it worked without any rooting or anything.
He used Boat Browser (per my recommendation) - not sure about other browsers, but I assume it work with all expect for Chrome, of course...

To everyone who wants flash, the easy way is to place the apk somewhere on Dropbox/Google Drive/Physical medium and install it from there, also since this week Adobe Flash Player is not available in the Play Store. http://www.pcworld.com/article/260901/android_flash_player_rip_how_to_get_it_now_that_its_gone.html

Everyone remember to backup the files created by titanium backup themselves to a removable SD card or your PC.
As for JB, I am not sure we can expect it for the TF700 right away ... the TF300 is so similar to the nexus 7, I'm sure they only slightly modified their nexus 7 kernel.
Is it just me or does anyone else thinks it's wrong that Asus updated their cheap tablet before their flagship?

No, the tf300 probably just happened to be ready first. It would silly to make all of the tf300 wait a few days just because the tf700 wants it first lol

Mysticial Kernel v0.1 for Official TF700 JB
STOP
1. I am not responsible for any issues this may cause your device and won't be held for any soft-bricks, hard-bricks, boot loops, exploding pets or Resonance Cascades.
2. You MUST be using the JB bootloader for this kernel to work.
The Goods
Unsecure boot.img
"Unlocked" ro.sf.lcd_density
"Unlocked" ro.carrier
For now the kernel itself is still stock however I've unlocked the ability to change ro.sf.lcd_density and ro.carrier in build.prop and unsecured the boot.img for true root access.
Not much on the first release but there's more to come soon.
Download
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/83380328/Mystical Kernel v0.1.zip
MD5: A9A436C1AEE9A27F8FBC4DC26892AF4A
Installation
1. Power off your tablet
2. Download the Kernel
3. Copy the Kernel to your MicroSD card or Internal Storage
4. Insert the MicroSD card in your tablet
5. Boot your tablet into Recovery by pressing and holding Volume Down AND Power for 5 seconds
6. A message will inform you that you have 5 seconds to enter Recovery; press Volume Up before the 5 seconds expire
7. Perform a backup from Custom Recovery
9. From your recovery menu press Install and select the Kernel
10. Wait until the install process ends and then restart your device
This is awesome, installed it and now its nice and awesome DPI again on JB thanks for this
Splendid! I look forward to seeing what this evolves into! I personally believe that a good, clean, professionally done kernel by an individual that actually cares instead of ASUS devs, is what we need to make this device perfect. :highfive:

Is writing an overclocked kernel hard to do? I mean, the tegra t33 is already powerful enough but some extra gigahertz would be nice.
Maybe it's just that I'm insane but I think overclocking would be a cool thing to implement, that is if it isn't hard to do.
Super excited about this! Really hoping to see some over-clocking action heading in our direction at some point... Thanks!

This works perfectly with CleanRom1.1.
In case anyone was wondering, the default kernel is stuck at 240 DPI even though it shows to be set o 160. I actually prefer 240 over 160 due to these 51 year old eyes, but sometimes I do like to change the DPI for a 'new view'.
Thanks Dev!
I never tried the build.prop for dpi before but just installed this and wow everything is so nice and small lol this rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Working fine for me with 200dpi, thanks !

Just flashed to check it out. 160 is pretty damn small lol.
Quickly changed to 200 and its better but I'll probably end up back at 230 soon enough.
thanks again and look forward to more tweeking.
So what are you guys using tochange your dpi? What all changes when lets say you goto 200 or so, just the status bar or...?
Also, does this effect the play store at all? I think on my nexus at one point it did.
I used the build.prop editor in ROM Toolbox. Everything changes with 200 DPI, I find that about the best without going too small.
You can use a patched Play Store from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1838077 this removes the DPI check and device restrictions !
I just use build.prop editor. I run my infinity at 200 DPI and have never had Play Store problems. Same goes for my Nexus 7 which I keep at 190 dpi

I've tried CM10.1 and CROMi-X, but went back to CM10.1. CROMi felt a little more laggy, and it didn't seem to work as well with the keyboard dock (minor things like the settings key didn't work, it wouldn't mount a USB drive, etc). I really do NOT being forced into the phone UI, so I'm looking forward to when Paranoid Android is ready for prime time.

CleanRom is fully stock everything works fine due to this fact, either you only tried it during its early stages of 4.2.1 update or used a not so good kernel. As for the lag you did you have the latest twrp installed and updated boot loader. A clean install of cromi-x will never produce lag.
I would suggest Max's kernel always as it has dynamic fsync(disabled when device is on and enabled when device is off) and security features to avoid data corruption. Max's kernel is the most smoothest kernel there is and battery life is amazing!! :good::good:
So another question... In trying to update my bootloader , it still shows the old one in my settings about phone.... Even after is says complete.. How can I be sure it's the correct new one?

There is no best rom/kernel combo, it is really up to you what you will prefer and what not, probably if you ask five different people you may get five different answers. Try many and then decide what suits you better.
I had been using Clean Master before rooting and flashing Cromi-X.
Question, do I still need to use it to free up RAM with this ROM?

Yes but it doesn't always do a very good job. I use a cache cleaner which helps. Also killing apps does improve things no matter what android says.
So I guess it would not hurt to keep cleaning RAM, can't hurt and may help.
Thanks for all you guys do for us noobs, I love what you have added to my tablet, the last two or three OTA's have been terrible.
Try using greenify to hibernate apps instead of killing them. It's supposed to be safer and work better than killing apps if I am correct.

It indeed belongs in the general section.
Rom can't that easy be ported because SOC is totally different and it would bring simply too much work and even maybe it is impossible.
You may be able to port parts of the framework but it would be a massive amount of work. One issue is the files are much larger in the TF701T ROM due to the higher resolution meaning that even after you massively deboat the stock firmware it is hard to fit into the system partition. It is possible to maybe get it running on rom2sd but considering thee minimal changes in 4.3 over 4.2 I don't consider the effort and amount of debugging worth it. Don't forget we have a boot loader and kernel for 4.2 so there is some work to do first to get it to even boot.
Feel free to have a go though
