What do people think about the best ROM for the Asus TF300T tablet? I was using CyanogenMod 10 and have wanted to update to a newer Kitkat(ish) ROM. I tried CROMi & ZOMBi, but I couldn't get either of them to recognise my 64G ext4-formatted sdcard. I've currently installed CyanogenMod 11 which does in fact seem to recognise and mount my ext4-sdcard.
What seems to be the best rom for Asus TF300T currently? Esp. with respect to supporting external ext4 sdcards?
How did ya root your tablet? Please answer
I'm really digging KatKiss. Great performance for gaming, lightweight, flawless so far.

Hey everyone, I am not really familiar with rooting tablets, only phones.
A year ago, or something I rooted my Desire z, and was really happy with everything and the new features and ROM's I could flash.
But, how can you root an tablet?
And also, where could I find a tutorial on rooting the Asus TF101 ?
And after that, I was wondering what the most stable jellybean ROM is, with the most features working, I only use it for surfing the web, using apps, playing games and not really anything more than that, so if for example the radio does not work, I don't really mind.
As long as it's stable, and faster than stock!
My last question : Is it smart to root a tablet? Because phone's are sometimes out-dated, and you can root them and update the software with a custom ROM, but do tablets really depend on this software ? Or is it just rootable and still everything inside the tablet (hardware) works?
Regards!

So they are actually supporting rooting your device?
PS: Do you have any link to a tutorial, about rooting :fingers-crossed:
Also one more question : when rooting tablets, is there the same difference as with phones ? S-off, etc?
Regards
Anyone could help me out, please?
Kind regards
I don't remember which method I used for rooting (it was sooo long ago ). But check this thread out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688447.
As for JB rom, I recommend Team EOS 3, it's super smooth and works great! I also use TWRP recovery.
I used the same root method as mentioned above and it was very easy to do. Follow instructions. If I remember correctly you will have to check which model you have. Should be on a sticker near the connector port on the bottom. As for jelly bean I have never tried. But loving Revolver ICS.
Good Luck

For root try PERI tool or 1click rooting tools, I'm using the AOSP JB rom , pretty smooth so far.

As mentioned before there are many ways to root the tablet, and they are all great.
About JB ROMs, I tried them all and they are pretty much stable and even faster the ICS ROMs. I found Team EOS to be the most stable and battery friendly and I'm currently using their latest build(72) which is just great!

Hello folks,
Since I'm going to update my TF101, I was wondering which custom ROM+Kernel I should put in it. I'm having doubts about EOS vs RaymanFX's CM10 and also between KatKernel vs elite.
What would be your opinion? What would be the advantages\disadvantages between them?
Cheers!
Having tried a lot of different ROMs I've found the combination listed in my signature to be the best for speed, stability, and attention to detail from their authors/maintainers.

I'm running exactly the same ROM and configuration as grgmre. It's the fastest my TF101 has ever run.
Thanks for the replies!
Since I didn't get any replies yesterday I decided to test that exact combo (EOS + KatKernel) and until now, I can also vouch that it is very stable and fast! There is no fault that I can point until now.
Cheers!
Where can I find a pure AOKP JB build for the TF700T. I checked the AOKP website. There is no official JB build for the TF700T. I checked the Transformer TF700 Android Development forum. I couldn't find one either.

Wow, you mean there is no AOKP JB build for a flagship device like the TF700T? I'm pretty sure that someone is working on it. The closest I could find is Baked Black Bean( BBB). I will wait for the release of BBB7 and then take a look at it.
I have been looking too. I am a big fan of AOKP, I have it on my Galaxy Nexus. I am running BB6. It runs great. I was thinking of trying to port over the TF101 ROM, but I'm a noon when it comes to that stuff.

Might not even have to "port", now that AOKP is running off their own source. I suppose you could check the CM vendor tree for our device and start from there, I'm sure they're pretty similar.
I've built CM in the past, but I currently lack the hard drive space to do it currently unfortunately.

Just looking for some advice, I have benn running Cromi-X 5.4 for about a year and was interested in upgrading to Cromi-kk or another KitKat rom?
Will KitKat help with the ram issues with the tf300? Will KitKat speed up things or is Cromi-X the fastest out there, I am running Hunds kernal clocked at 1.6cpu and 520gpu. I was looking into upgrading to a new tablet but the tf300 does everything I want out off a tablet and it's hard to find w a well rounded tablet with good support with all the options sd card, hdmi out and 32gb or more on board and be a fast and good game playing tablet. Thanks for all your input.

Some of aspects of kitkat are better.
Just nandroid backup first in TWRP and try crombi-kk - if you don't like it you can go back
A full wipe is required so you will lose everything so prepare for resetting all back up to how you want it.
Hi All,
I have a Tf700T with TWRP 2.4.3.0 and CleanRom 3.4.4 in it.
This gives me 4.1 but I would like to move up to 4.4 for a more modern machine.
The question is of the ROMs available today supporting 4.4 which is the most stable and best choice?
Should I upgrade TWRP as well?
TNX
Best 4.4 rom is cyanogenmod 11 official nightlies.
A twrp update seems to be necessary to me... loom into dev-section for information about cyannogen

"Best" is in the eye of the beholder.
Check out Zombi-X or Crombi-KK or if you want to move to a Lollipop rom go for Zombi-POP.
You will need to update your bootloader and recovery no matter what you want to flash....
Check the OP of your chosen rom carefully for instructions
I agree. But for 4.4 cyanogen 11 is best supported i think.
For lollipop its zombi in my point of view
