FAQs
Q:I know that CM10.1 use the Phone UI by default but it's still possible to switch to the Tabled UI?
No.And don't whine to the developer about it (do it with Google ) this won't change.
Q: I want to go back to a Jelly Bean 4.1.1 rom,do i have to downgrade the bootloader?
No,the 4.2.1 bootloader is backwards compatible but it's not recommended to use a 4.1 bootloader with a 4.2.1 rom.
Q: I can't find the Developer Option anymore,it's gone?
It's not gone,just go in Settings --> About Tablet --> Press 7 times on Build Number...done
Q: I can't find the advanced power options anymore (reboot to recovery,bootloader,etc).
You can enable all those options in Settings --> Developer Option --> Advanced Reboot
Q: I enabled all the options in the Power Menu but i still don't have the Advanced Power Menu ( i.e. Reboot to recovery) when pressing the Power button.
Unlock your screen before pressing the Power button,the advanced Power Menu is always disabled from the Lockscreen.
Q:I would like to use the build-in CM Update feature but i'm not using the CWM recovery,can i use TWRP instead?
Yes,TWRP will work just fine.

I'll start. I know the OP was mentioning changing the I/O scheduler setting from ROW to CFQ. Any reason why that would improve performance?

It seem that Asus did some changes to the CFQ scheduler on the 4.2.1 kernel (don't ask me about tech details) and improved it a bit.But no matter wich scheduler is set by default you are still free to choose the one that suite you best and set it on boot.

Any recommendations on disabling HW overlays, or forcing GPU rendering?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk HD

Nevermind on the HW overlays. I've been playing with the I/O settings, and Quadrant seems to like ROW more than CFQ for some reason. I'll run it in the meantime.
Coming from a clean install, you can absolutely notice the kernel performance improvements. I'm a happy camper!

I can find the SPYD/3.1 in the list, but can't se the option to enable the data compression proxy. Maybe I have to change the language to English to find it, lol.
Nevertheless the latest nightly is a huge improvement over the previous ones! Good job!
One question though, is it possible to disable fsync in the "stock" CM10.1 kernel? At least for me the disabled fsync on stock ROMs made the tf700 fly.

I'd add to that Data2SD. Both make my TF700 much snappier and benchmarks are consistently improved as well.

You can't disable Fsync with the default CM10.1 kernel,you will need a custom kernel .As for the Data2SD I'm sure that someone will implement it soon and I will update the OP with all the infos and links.

Guys, is the kernel in this ROM the same as in CROMi-Xenogenesis 4.3 Final][Stock - 10.6.1.14.4 - DEODEX]? I have had that ROM on my device since Tuesday and I'm wondering whether I should try this one as well...

I was looking through source today, CFQ didn't seem to change, but there were many changes on the board-cardhu*.c files, including memory locations, etc. This is what is probably allowing CFQ to work more efficiently than in previous iterations of the kernel.

So to install this from CROMI I need to do a full wipe then put this and the correct GAPS then install via TWRP?

You can use twrp or cwm. Yes, you need to wipe, ROM and gapps.
If you use cwm, read the warnings about formatting

In the thread it mentions the bootloader needs to be:
10.6.1.14.1
is this correct? The current bootloader I have is the latest being 10.6.1.14.4 will I still need to change it?

Do you want P6800 JB custom kernel development?

I have built a P6800 JB custom kernel from MD3 source.
FOR P6800 GSM/3G device running JB MD3 ONLY
It has compiled without errors.
Kernel compression = Gzip
Added NTFS filesystem support
General optimze for size
Support for paging of anonymous memory (swap)
Pegagsus governor set as default (although didn't see any module compiled.....)
Removed powerSave & userSpace governors
Default IO scheduler = NOOP
As I don't have the device (only P6810), I can't actually test myself...........
If you wish to test, only first EXPERIENCED SENIOR member to volunteer (reply in this thread) to test and give proper feedback will receive the links by PM.
I have 4 files :
Odin (.tar) & CWM (.zip) flashable .tar for both stock and SkyHigh kernels.
There may be a RISK involved, but if you choose to accept, you assume all responsibilty.
If the kernel works/partially, I MAY continue further development by adding various features :
example only - OC/UV, frandom support, tweaks, governors, io schedulers, and other modules etc. Some method, I cannot test until my P6810 is upgraded
I will not release sources/changes as this kernel is not for public release ! Only, MAYBE if it actually works....(Plus I have to find out how to upload repo to github anyway )
Up to you guys to, otherswise this stalls here.
Cheers,
UITA

I think i can give it a go.

I'd be happy to test for you, the main interest for me would be UV the CPU/GPU and screen.
Probably doesnt help but this kernel (Hirox version) does the job amazingly, stops my phone from heating up in the slightest with no loss of performance and great battery life

Pretty slow development due to not having device and also phone/net off for two days now. Have to go away for a few days too..... Thanks to edan1979;nutley for testing and feedback thus far.
Just impatiently waiting for the JB update for P6810, so I can download the source and mirror development for both kernels. Things would speed up then.

[Q] Help with TF700T Lag

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to flash to my TF700 to help with overall system lag? I've heard some people say that there's are really fast, but that's never been the case with mine.
I'm currently unlocked, rooted, running Android 4.2.2 and have the CynogenMod 10.1.3-RC2 ROM flashed using the 3.1.10-cynogenmod-g6c52142 Kernal.

What version did you use and kernel? I am going to release my extreme tweaks today sometime to go with Cromi 5.0.3 and Hund's kernel. It is mainly for performance. You can give it a shot and give me a feedback..

I'm not sure which version it was. I flashed it a while ago so I'm sure it wasn't the newest version that's out now. I'll go ahead and flash the newest version and Hund's kernel and try out your tweak.

[Q] 4.3 Kernel w/ Data2SD support?

Title kind of says it all, I have heard of folks in a few posts for 4.3 based roms mention just running a kernel with Data2SD built in. Bryce's kernel is the only 4.3 kernel i have found and it does not appear to have data2sd included....
4.3 runs pretty well without it but it would be nice to have.

That's kernel version 6 kind of supports 4.3 and has preinit support built in which means with a small script you can set the mount points for data2sd before android boots.
Pop over to his thread for info.

I used it on CM10.2 as did that. The new version is 4.3 compatible as it says in the changelog. Although he didin't put it in the first post it is near the end of the thread. You also need to inject his modules into CM.
If you pop over to his dual boot thread he shows you how to do this as well

Awesome thanks for posting again! I will give this a try right away! I'd seriously contemplating going down the path of compiling my own....but would rather not

[Q] cromi-x and cm11

Hi,
I've been using cromi-x rom for several months (v5.2.3 with kernel thatv7 and fsync off) and it run really fine. I even don't consider to install data2sd or rom2sd as performance already meets my needs due to fsync off.
But i'm a curious man and i'm interested in testing another rom : cm11. But i have few questions about that (i did not find answers in existing threads) :
- does cm11 correct the tf700 i/o issue (with sync off for example) and will i get as good performance than on cromi-x ?
- i have TWRP installed but CM requires CWR. Which one is compatible with both roms (so that i can easily switch back from one rom?to the other) ?
Thanks

I doubt it since essentially it is hardware related (cheap memory) and I doubt that the CM team found a better way to mitigate it than sbdags.

TWRP 2.6.3.2 also works with CM11. It also seems to work fine with CROMi-X.
sbdgas just modded the rom2sd2 script to run CM11 as rom2sd with _thatv7 on internal. Somebody else tried the same scenario with Hund's kernel - both ran like syrup it seems....
But give it a shot running CM11 on internal with TWRP 2.6.3.2! That's what nandroids are for
And let us know how it went!

As far as I understand, the solution was to put fsync to off. Maybe CM has also implemented that solution, but I don't find any information about that on CM thread / website.

Yep you're right, I see that there is a thread explaning that, I will read it and try to apply it. I'll give news about my testing but that will take a few days probably as i'm very busy at the moment at home.

I've read the dual-boot internal+external rom thread and it needs a linux machine which i don't have. Could i do that gparted configuration with a live-linux CD ?
And about performance, does the option "fsync off" exist in CM11 ? If not then i don't expect good performance/no-lag like on CROMI-X and i would be then not interested to test CM.

Sure! I recommend the one from sysresccd.org (should be in every household), but you can also use the GParted live CD or any other that includes gparted.

As long as the kernel supports "fsync off", it will also work in CM.

Thanks for your answer, i'll try it when i have time (late at night when child and wife are sleeping )

Not all kernels that support f sync off support cm11, the only cm11 kernel besides the stock cyanogen mod one is bryce09's and that still has bugs. CM 11 with the build.prop tweaks, clean master, lagfix, and crossbreeder give performance better then CROMI-X with no overclock.
