What does stable mean then? - Eee Pad Transformer General

battery drain, wifi lock up. crashes on cyan 4.1.2 yet it is "Stable"
there must be a better JB. Do I have to try them all?

It means it was "stable for the exact model it was developed for", which, apparently, creates lots of problems to others. I'm not sure what subtle differences there are between TF101 models, but it seem to matter with ROMs. I'm still using 4.0.3 stock (rooted) because no 4.1 ROM will work "well enough", I always have major problems. I guess you're in the same boat I am.
However, I had colleagues that use 4.1 ROMs without any issues whatsoever...

"Stable" enough for most peoples for daily use. It's not the "Final" version so minor bugs are to be expected. Off course each and every tablet is different even if it's the same make and model.
As for trying them all, why not? At least till you find a ROM you like.
This is what "testing" is all about.

If you want stable, flash Team EOS 3 JB #81 & KAT Kernel 47b

With my particular device/usage model, I have to agree. It's easily as stable as the most recent official ICS update, and more robust than anything earlier.

Official ASUS updates have not been stable for me since about January, actually since the 1st ICS update was sent out
After 6 months of waiting for ASUS to send out something that didn't reboot every few minutes and didn't welcome you in the morning to a completely drained dock and tablet battery, I gave up on them and went custom
Since I found Team EOS, my tablet is a pleasure to use and never craps out, ever, I have never seen a RR or SoD since flashing their ROM which is why I continue to recommend it whenever someone is looking for a stable ROM

done and thankyou. this is the best this tablet has ever performed:victory:
I was happy stock, but this is superb!

+1 for team EOS. I stopped using my tablet for a few months because of the RRs and SODs. I flashed Team EOS's JB ROM and suddenly my TF101 is usable again!
Unfortunately, now I want to sell it for either a newer TF model or the Nexus 10

Advantage of running official ICS over Team EOS nightly?

Hey all, I'm running the Team EOS nightly and was wondering if there is any advantage to restoring to stock honeycomb for the official ICS update?
Should I just wait until a rooted ICS version based on the official is released?
It was released already, it's at the top of the development forum...flash with CWM, it's already rooted. From what I understand, it's probably faster for 3D gaming...could be wrong though.
Are there any issues with the official ics? I would do a search but it seems the search function is missing for some strange reason.

I can't think of a single one. I just flashed nightly 26 from 23, booting it now. Loving the EOS builds!
For a while none of the gameloft games were working on EOS.
Could have been fixed by now.

It is, I've got Uno and MC3 on mine and they are working fine.
I decided to load up the official rooted release and so far it's pretty much the same as Team EOS's build. Team EOS does seem to be a bit snappier, and I do miss the reboot options on Team EOS build. The only improvement I see with the official is the camera, that seems to be snappier and more responsive on the official.
Only issue existing on both version is the Revision3 app that just won't load.

I've been running rooted ICS stock for several days now ... installed the leaked RC, then rooted.
Your question about EOS vs. stock gets the standard answer from me - are you happy with EOS and want more features in the future? If so, then stay with EOS.
For me, I'll stay with stock rooted - I just want a tablet that works and not interested in tweaks. I'll spend my tweaking time on my Photon.
There is no objectively right or wrong answer to your question, and nobody else can answer it for you. Enjoy!
Good thread. I was curious as well because knowing verizon (any carrier really) i doubt I'll see ICS anytime jan or feb and i konda want it now...
Pronlem is i dkdnt really want to root my xoom, but i guess ill have to now.

Actually you don't have to root your Xoom if you just want ICS. I believe there is a stock ICS rom out there too. You will have to unlock the bootloader though.
From my perspective if you are running a rooted stock version of ICS there is virtually not a single reason. Stock isn't overclocked, a lot of enhancements are missing etc. But if you run a completely stock ICS with no root there are some advantages. For example, if you run a non-rooted stock you can rent videos from Google. I can't really think of anything else haha. Go EOS, their ROM is sick.

What benefit does the eos have? No need for OC for me. I actually use the xoom alot during the day and will only jse up mlre battery.
I don't rent videos either so i don't care about that
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
There are a ton of advantages to EOS ROM over Stock. The major one is the micro SD card is read/writable, all voice-to-text features are working as is facelock, the micro USB port is actually useful now, the EOS quick settings are very nice and they all work! There are several battery options from EOS settings and you can make the notification pull look any way you like.
Even if you don't use the performance features this ROM is the only way to Xoom. Until CM9 or Rogue get one out for the 4G

Official Xoom CM10 Nightlies

Hey guys! Official Xoom CM10 Nightlies have been released! I'm not the developer or one in general, I'm just sending out the message.
The latest builds can be found at http://get.cm/?device=wingray&type=nightly.
On a related note though, I've tried both the 9/06 and 9/07 builds and neither were able to boot. I'm just warning you now. If you find a way to get them to boot, please let me know.

I ran some of his first experimental builds, things looked promising as always from the CM team. Running CNA in the meantime, but I too am eager to go back to flashing CM nightlies. Did have the occasional reboot on some of the older experimental builds, that's why I'm at CNA for stability.
Fingers crossed, can't wait

[Q] Stock 4.3 / CM 10.1 or wait for 10.2

Hi,
I just got a Nexus 4 and love the device. I come from a HTC Sensation and used to run CM.
I am running stock 4.3, non rooted but lack some options.
I would like to ask your advice on what to do, should I;
- Unlock / root and flash CM 10.1? (should I flash a custom kernel?)
or
- Stay on stock until a stable CM 10.2 releases or wont this release for a couple of months?
I dont want to hassle with nightly builds, just want a stable daily driver and dont want to flash every week.
Thanks guys!
Wait for 10.2. Kindle fire CM 10.2 has already been released so I can imagine that it won't be long.

I hope you do realize that even nightly releases are quite stable on the Nexus 4? Unless you're doing some hardcore mission critical work, I'd say 10.2 nightlies are just as stable as 10.1
I'm not one of those flashaholics who will flash broken builds and half broken features just to have the latest new gimmick, so when I'm telling you it's solid, I mean it. CM10.2/Android 4.3 does have its issues, and I'd say the biggest is the battery drain issue that has to do with location services. If you're willing to disable half the features of location services, then the issue is less apparent, but to me 10.2 is good enough for me to run as a daily driver. I'd say the issue is more of an Android 4.3 rather than a CM 10.2 issue. So even if you go with a stable ROM like AOSP, you're doomed with battery the same as CM.

Thanks, I didnt realise this, the experience I had with nighly releases is not that good. After reading this I am considering to flash 10.2
I tried 4.3 and liked it quite a bit but I decided to stay on my favourite ROM (not cm but sabermod) on 4.2.2 until it gets updated to 4.3
and I haven't looked back

CM12 Nightlies - any good

What is the consensus on the CM12 nightly builds?
Is anybody using them?
I just got my 9506 and all I really want out of a rom is the stock look, like Nexus or GPE, which CM provides.

If you are hard gamer, I recommend you to use official CM12. I've tested both and seems like theres serious graphical issues in arters cm12. But both are good for daily use, battery life is little bit worse in arter cm12. Theres not much differencies.
The consensus is that Temasek rom built by @arter97 is the BEST rom for our device, even better than touchwiz rom, and of course better than official cm builds.

I do not agree the official cm12 by the time will be better because of it's easier to handle, flash and has OTA update.
Can someone please explain what the main differences/goals are between the three major ROMS are? (official cm12, solk2, and arter97/temasek) Looking around the forum, I can't seem to find anything closer than "X is better than Y" and "The difference is in tuning" and other vague things like that

Yeah and they have better support to rom. I mean they update it every day etc..
Arters rom is based on temasek moded version of CM12 - it does include a bit more than the barebone CM12. It is rock solid and by far good enough to be a daily driver. I found it to be great with games (as a reply to another post here). Played Star Wars Kotor on it for hours, it ran perfectly and did not get hot.
The "official" CM12 I have not tried, but it seems to be lagging a lot behind arter. They had, or still have?, problems with wifi/mobile nettwork and other stuff. Does not seem to be a daily driver yet.
I just don't get why you guyz think that easy flashing and faster releases is a positive feature in terms of rom stability.
I'm quite happy with updates arter releases, they are stable and battery friendly, besides it have all goodies from temasek rom.
Don't wanna be a flashaholic!
I don't want to be a flashaholic either. Maybe when official gets a snapshot version, or milestone, but that may never happen looking at the history.
I was using CM11 on the previous 9505 but everything changed with Lollipop.

I was looking very skeptic when it was available, but I was amazed how stable and fast it was.
Started with v1, I`m using arters build and had ZERO accidental restart, (FC, camera can`t connect and etc... ) or any bug that affects daily usage. I came from M12 i9300 CM11.
Does casting work? Moving apps to SD?
Casting works fine with Chromecast. Accessible from quick pulldown panel.
Move 2 sd is broken, it`s CM bug.

Gotcha, the rom I was using with the 9505 did not have cast working and SD moving was also broken.
For me official cm12 is the best and always up to date. I tried mokeedev, arter, solk and back to official
I think I will try official cm12 when there is a at least a snapshot build.
What's broken in it at the moment, anything? What camera do you use?
I update daily with last nightly. For my usages nothing's broken. Very stable. I use Google camera.

Resurrection Remix for n5110, n5100 & n5120 - all released!

The n5110, n5100 and n5120 builds are now all released here

I'm in
UPD: Ooops! I've got n5100 only.
I might give it a shot, I have an old GT N 5110 lying around.
yup, sorry, N5110 only.
According to your attachment you have the exact same model as me.

yes VGchat you are 'in', have PM'd you and I will get you instructions and a dropbox link to download later tonight.
I should also say that this rom is basically CM13 with RR built on top and is a stable as CM13 currently is on N5110 (that is VERY stable).
So far I just got it installed. I notice it's still CM warm, it's a tad toasty compared to CivZ rom I had on previously and compared to other CM13 roms for this device, the heat trend continues on the underside. Which cpu governer would work best with this tablet for battery life/performance/stability?
Youtube seems to run perfectly.
Stylus support is detecting and interacting with the Stylus just fine.
There is a faint bit of static feedback now & then from Bejeweled Stars but it plays better than it did on CivZ rom. Less laggy.
Overall the UI is pretty fast & smooth.
There doesn't seem to be any GPS issues. One Weather can find my location just fine.
I'm not sure how demanding a game this one is but Giant Boulder of Death pushes this tablet to it's limits almost. Noticeable input lag sometimes and music lag is definitely noticeable.
There is a issue with video recording. It will not do it, instead it spits out an error about it as you mentioned in your PM. However it can take pictures.
Thanks VGchat for your comments.
Video recording not working comes from CM13 I'm sure. Everything else sounds pretty good.
Unkilled runs pretty well in game for me, though cutscenes are a little stuttery.
The heat issue I'm hoping is just from initial setup, cataloguing media files etc. and will have settled in a couple of days.
I don't know what governor would be recommended, it seems to use pegasusq by default.
I will try Boeffla kernel over the weekend, which should work as it does with equivalent CM13.
I'll look to making a release thread at the start of next week, if anyone wants it before just PM me.
Maybe you'll be able to fix the camera issue with this thread, GL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/fix-bug-fixing-bugs-porting-custom-roms-t2909599
N5100 version
I have also made an N5100 version and passed to A_sh_ to see if it runs...
I have also confirmed by restoring my backup that the video problem originates in CM13.
If you need a N5100 tester you can count me in. Running RR on my bacon
So long as you keep Boeffla seperate from the rom, I'll be fine with that. I never did care much for Boeffla Kernel on my Note 8. (I tried it on the civz rom and the other popular cm13 rom, with less then impressive results). I think the Kernel Adiutor is working pretty good for this rom.

You mean when N / CM14 comes about?
Depends on what RR team do and whether an official / unofficial CM14 is made for Note 8.0 or whether MM is the end of the line...
I'm sure RR will continue with N as they have been going since ICS.
If I still have the tablet, want to keep updating it and am able to continue, then I will.
N5120
Wot no N5120 requests yet???
I have an N5120 build also sitting waiting on AFH for a beta tester to come along and gobble it up..

It would be great if you update it to N, but I was simply talking about CM 13,when new nightly are released.
Ah! I initially thought you meant nightlies then thought nah, gotta be N you're enquiring about...
Yes to nightlies - the beta testers have had 2 nightlies so far.
I can usually find time to make 2 builds per night every couple of nights. Builds take my laptop around an hour each (8 core i7..).
Current builds with testers, which will hopefully be released, were synced at about 7pm uk time on the 20th and include all CM changes up to "you are now a developer" which I felt was the ideal point to call it a release ????
https://www.cmxlog.com/13/n5110
If you want access now just follow me on android file host and I will add you to the beta group.
Thanks for your answer. Of course I didn't think you could update the Rom every CM nightly, I was just wondering if it's easy for you to update sometimes without having to work too much. I can't be a beta tester at the moment, but I'm thinking of trying a new Rom sooner or later: I'm still using a kitkat firmware and, after some years, I feel a little bored
You don't grab specifically by nightlies, just the latest on what is there for both CM and RR. To grab and make a new build it is just 3 command line commands. Once you are setup it is very easy.
