[Q] Device is slow. What ROM to install? - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I bought this device few time after the release. At the time there was an official update from ASUS and I updated it. I remember that it said that there was no way to go back to the original firmware. The thing is. I unlocked my device at that time and now, after trying many different custom ROMS, there is not one that works ok. My device is slow, always hanging, it's not usable at all. My question for the experts are:
- Do I have the correct firmware, kernel, whatever installed?
- What ROM can I install that does not have these problems?

Many of the KitKat ROMs are a lot faster. I used CROMBi for a while, at it was mostly stable. You will have to unlock your bootloader and flash a TWRP 2.8

Thanks cmendonc2. The problem is that I updated the tablet itself (not the ROM) as soon as I bought it and it has been slow since that time. I don't know if I can revert to the state that was from factory. I already tried many ROM's and the slowness is always there.

Katkiss 4.4.4 plus added in Seeder.apk..
The thing screams...
I am running it next to the Nexus 10 and both are running about the same..
Only thing is the TF300T is a bit slower on the Multitasking when downloading from Play Store and or TB backup installs..
otherwise if I was to be buying one for someone, at the price they are now, plus the expandable storage options...
I would still think this was not a bad buy..
As the Nexus 10 has great specs and zooms but its developed a yellow tinge on the screen that seems to happen to a few of them after 1-2 years..
and its not like the screen is on for extended periods.. or left on.. just a production fault.. we are having a go at Google now about it.. as cant even get replacement LCD's for it..

I installed CROMBi but the problem remains. My TF300T has some other problem that began with the first official asus upgrade I made. No one knows what I'm talking about? The tablet is slow to do everything, except when inside apps.

Try to wipe internal memory from recovery and flash katkiss 5.0.1 rom. It works better than kitkat roms

Thanks xfim. I installed and it seems much more stable. I'm having problems with gapps, they don't install, don't know why but I'm going to ask in the katkiss topic.

Just thought I should relate my experience flashing Paranoid v2.54, which I did this morning. So far, I'm very pleased. I've had the Lenovo a2109 tablet about a year, running the stock ROM all this time. I had been extremely displeased with the bugginess of the operating system and whatever web browser I've installed. Chrome, Firefox, Dolphin, etc. had been very buggy under the stock ROM. So far (I've only had time to use the tablet 2 hours since installing Paranoid), I've been using just the stock web browser and haven't had any browser stalls and sudden quits. Thanks for developing this ROM! So far, so good!
Here is something I could use guidance on: In trying to reload my apps from the Play store to the Lenovo tablet after flashing Paranoid v2.54 this morning, when I use a web browser to go to my Google Play acct., "my apps," I'm told "already installed," even though the freshly flashed tablet has NO personal apps installed. Any advice?

have the same issue a bit lower on my screen(broken digitizer) and it can be fixed only with a new display
Screen Tile Not respondig
Having the same issue here, as described above , but it only happened like 2 weeks ago tops , like when i updated to latest Kitkat (slimKat stable 3 back then )...
Is this definitely a hardware issue or some broken code?
Been reinstalling some kitkat here, but the problem persists,...
I thought the problem was the firmware because of some post i spotted pointing at slimkat or something...
Did any of you get this problem AFTER installing slimkat or even latest TWRP (2.7.0.0) ? (i updated both kind of the same time)
I had that problem on 4.1/2/3 roms. Disappeared on kitkat, fyi.

[Q] xt925 cant install 4.4.4

hi all
i'm currently running 4.4.2 custom rom Paranoid SaberDroid on my rooted/unlocked xt925

i've not been able to install any of the latest rom's(4.4.4) and i have no idea why, firstly i wanted to try MoKee, the installation was fine, but the moment the loading animation started, it would just stay animated indefinitely, then i tried the other latest roms like slimrom, PA, and they all do the same thing, stuck at animated boot logo.
i've tried to install 2.7.1.0 TWRP, that just freezes when i enter it, i then installed CWM 6.0.4.9, the UI is very blurry, but i can navigate it just barely to install/wipe/clean the rom's i've listed above.
the only thing that i can think of is that its something to do with the bootloader and/or the kernel.
i've re-installed the previous working version of paranoid saberdroid, and everything is fine again.
any help would be great, thank you.

I believe that the newer ROMs kernel is version 3.4. Those only work if you've updated to the official KK rom sent Ota. That is what I think

i'm not sure how to do it though, there are instructions in another thread, but the poster took away the file that we are supposed to use to update our xt925's

CleanRom is regarded as one of the most stable roms available. I think you might need to upgrade your firmware (baseband/rpm/tz) because VRALF2 is from the ICS 4.0.4 OTA in 2012 whereas your rom base is 4.3. The mismatching firmware may be the culprit behind your random reboots. Check your inbox and flash the 20 MB zip in recovery. Use the phone over a few days and see if the reboots occur less often. You'll want to be using VRBMF1 firmware before we can blame the rom. Make sure to pull the sim card at some point today for about 30 seconds, then reinsert it into your phone to force it to check for a PRL update.
Thank you I will try that. I had flashed that baseband to fix random disconnects from the network which helped. Ill try the one you hooked me,up with for a few days. The phone is disconnected so,I don't care to much about the network dropping anymore.Just using it like an iPod lol

haha not a problem

Note edge being weird.

Hiya peeps. Id just like to ask you experts with a little help.
For the past week my phone suddenly started locking up and freezing and rebooting itself and ive had its for like 2 years. ok its always suffered from a little lag when like typing but i got used to it. I recently wiped its cache but nothing has changed. Its always had issues with the battery with random shut offs at from anything from 30% to even 50+% ive replaced the battery before and i guess its time to replace again.
Main question is my phone just literally just restarted itself now and has come to this screen which i will upload a photo.
I cant remember installing a custom rom since buying it. i did buy it 2nd hand though.
But what does this mean in the photo?.
last night i downloaded marshmallow 6.0.1 firmware because i wanted to see if re firmwaring my phone might later this evening will help in the mean time while i will buy a new battery.
.its been stuck on this screen for like 20 mins already and im scared to turn my phone off

You need to install Odin on your PC and flash a stock rom.

Ok after like 40 mins i did take the risk of taking out the battery as i'd assume my phone wouldn't be doing anything in its state. It rebooted again but still suffering from the issues i mentioned previously.
Im guessing this wouldnt be the last time this will happen and probably will see this screen again in future.
I own a Galaxy Note edge. Unlocked, Bought in england
