Thanks...

Picked up a new G tablet today from Sears. The stock rom was unbelievably awful, but I read up here before buying so I was ready. I am now running VEGAn with flash and Android market and it rocks!!!
Huge props to a great community

Agreed. I did the same thing, read and researched here, then made the decision. Thanks XDA community.

Bought the grab. The playscool interface OEM was disappointing... flashed to tnt light 2.2. Updated 2.4. Today. I must say the tablet is incredibly fast and flexible... many thanks to the forum moderators and many replyers for knowledge.

Good news from Cyanogen

I've stumbled upon this thread at cyanogen's blog:
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cm9-progress-update
If you look at this part, is good news for us, since Acer Iconia and Asus Transformer, as far as I know, share most of the hardware...
The first devices (besides the Nexus S, which you can already get from Koush’s section on ROM Manager) that we’ll have ready will mostly likely be devices based on OMAP4, MSM8660/7X30, and Exynos. We also have some Tegra2 tablets in the pipeline such as the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Asus Transformer.
Yishhh.... I hope it won't take long for a first release!

Happy to see this. I just flashed my phone a few hours ago with a (quite buggy) alpha CM9 build, and while it's quite slow and has a lot missing, I must say it's beautiful and very fun to use. Maybe blazingwolf can help cyanogen bring it to our tabs?

Maybe if you get on your knees and whine to cyanogen like you did with wolf they will? Ya never know, but it's worth a try at least?

Custom Development for the TF300t PLEASE !!

I want to start this thread to encourage Android Custom Rom Devs so we all can enjoy and benefit from their work.
We have seen incredible work built for other similar devices (eg: Asus Transformer TF101, Transformer Prime TF201,, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, and others). I don't want to mention any particular team or Dev, but we all know extraordinary people out there. Please jump on the TF300 bandwagon..we need you.
Cheers

Actually, my vote goes for a custom stock ROM for those of us who like the stability and features of asus roms.

Makelegs builds of cm9 and aokp are great AOSP and what you guys have afasthat. You also seem to have an AOKP build up
I'm willing to try and put something together as I have a tad of experience with the TF101, but I don't have a tf300 to test with and I'd rather not accidentally brick a bunch of people with a bad release.

+1 to this also
TEAM EOS.. where are you guys??

you know the TF300's stock rom is like 99% aosp right? the only thing i have noticed is the status bar has the toggles built in, the status bar locking thing, and some different icons for the back,home, multitask. and the addition of asus' "bloat" apps.
but as someone already said, there are some CM9 and AOKP builds available already. they may not be official builds, but that is only because the AOKP team doesn't have a tf300 to work with.

Gotta have some patience bro We do have talented devs for this tablet already. Don't forget its only been out a month or 2 and its gonna take time for people to make the jump to this tablet. Give it time this community will grow

You are somehow correct my friend but... encouraging does not mean lack of patience.
There is quite a bit of development done for a very similar device ( TF201 )... actually a couple of CM9 roms are branched from TF201 development.
There are other gadgets out there launched on the same date the TF300 was and there are custom kernels as well as AOSP and AOKP roms.. so, yes,... lets be patient but let them know we are waiting.
Cheers.

True. This awesome device needs more attention. I'm teaching my self coding so I hope some day have a custom build out there.
I got this tablet 48 hours ago and already running this custom rom with Apex Launcher. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750861
I saw you wondering in that thread as well.
And I do have to say that you don't enjoy the amazing Android experience until you start flashing.

Ordered my TF300

HEY GUYS! I just placed my order on Amazon for my TF300 and I can't wait. It comes in Tuesday and until then I will be spending my time in the forums trying to find out what I want to do to it.
I am coming from the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. It was a great tablet and the community was great. I was looking through this one and, to be honest, this forum looks a little confusing with the different versions for the different countries. The one I rodered is the TF300 B1-WH. I just wanna make sure that I can get what I need for this model from these forums.
So please stop by and tell me what you think and give some pointers. THANKS!

Take your time, do some reading and plan on a little time to verify there are no hardware issues before you go beyond stock. Most units selling today are on JB bootloader but if yours happens to come with ICS then consider nvflash.
Good Luck and Welcome!

Probably this is the best guide IMO - The best ROM is also BAKED - I'm currently on a test release which is amazing and BAKED just has all these AOKP customizations with the best stability and battery life of the AOSP Roms out there :laugh:
also Ubuntu Touch is being ported but atm it's really, really a preview - not much working and not really stable!

thanks! I was so worried that since I was getting it off of Amazon that it was going to be some weird chinese version and almost useless. lol. I was able to find the 32GB refurb for 250. I am pretty stoked.
I was looking at the slim bean since that is what I run on my SIII but will wait for a slightly more stable version to come out. Any word on a paranoid ROM?

CleanROM is awesome. I definitely suggest giving it a try. We also have Paranoid Android. If you want to overclock you will want to use the 2.54 version with the modified Unter kernel in the 3rd post down from the OP under EXTRAS. There is a 2.99 version but its still a beta.
I ran the PA ROM for a few months and its nice. CleanROM performs better though.
I've got the 32gb version and love it. The dock is nice too if you ever decide to get one.

I to have cleanROM and it is simply awesome.
If i were you though i would give it a little while before you install custom ROMs just incase you have hardware issues and the tablet needs to go back for repair.
Then root the tablet and install a custom ROM. You won't regret it!

welcome ! I love my TF300 WW version , black 16 GB. I like to keep it stock and ... waiting for 4.2 . oh yea, *I ordered a leather case and I got a screen protector and a stylus !!! by the way, the package arrived in less than 2 weeks !!! ordered on 25feb => 10 days :victory: (normally should be 15-25 WORKING DAYS !! ). can't wait , i'll pick it up tomorrow

More roms...come on guys..

Hey i'm Chriss-not an owner of Find 5 but wish i was....
I love Find 5....even it's website lists that it supports XDA,which is like a "Loyal King".
I want to buy it and i 'm trying,i checked out the xda tread and i saw official CM10.1 which really cool but there's nothing else except
AOSP.I mean if you guys can make a some-what stable CM10.1....you guys could easily make more roms like Paranoid,PAC,MIUI would be awesome on 1080p display,and many other roms....more you make better,try out-of-box like firefox os...These things make news and make the device more popular,which brings in more support,donors etc...:good:
So dev who are try hard to fix cm bugs and are stuck build some other roms also ....don't mind the bugs that arise which can be fixed later
I would like to wish the team Best Of Luck! :victory:

Just be patient.
The cm10.1 rom was only released yesterday.:good:

With working and stable CM10.1 and AOSP Roms it's easier to port other Roms that are based on either of them.
I'd much rather have those two up and running in a near perfect state before we get a bunch of people that bricked their phones because they jumped on an alpha of Paranoid Android and they have no clue how to restore them.

Yeah. CM kangs almost never appear until CM is mostly complete for a device, and we didn't release until yesterday.
This device has only had kernel source available for sometime around a month, and isn't exactly widely available. Good development takes time.
FYI, CM went from "developers received the device" to "95% working" in less than two weeks, with the first week of that being research and laying the groundwork for a port. Most of the actual coding was done over the past weekend. Of course, this was only possible due to devices that came before us, like the Xperia Z.
It's amazing how much easier Qualcomms are to work with than Exynos.

Good lord.
Okay, you have two approaches to encourage development chrissmartin.
1) Knock yourself out and build a ROM of your own
2) Donate money to an existing developer who's working on a ROM / kernel... whatever you think is of value to you.
I don't know if you've done either, but short of those two options, please don't be 'that guy'. It's a new device in many respects, as Entropy pointed out. You want a ton of ROM's ASAP...go hop on the Sammy bandwagon.

Not gonna get that on Exynos BTW.... All of the Exynos4 CM maintainers are barely touching their devices, and so far, not a single person with maintainer experience has expressed interest in the Exynos5-based GS4. (As to Qualcomm-based GS4s - Some CM people are getting them, but myself and the other ex-Teamhacksung guys are going elsewhere.)
Edit: Obviously, other people can pick up the ball and take a crack at the Exynos5 GS4, but so far, I have not encountered anyone with an interest. All of the people with AOSP-on-Exynos experience I've talked to are done with the platform, and expect Exynos5 "Octa" to be even worse than the Exynos4 was. There's always the possibility we'll get a pleasant surprise from Samsung, but I have very little hope given that they completely failed to deliver on their promises made at the Big Android BBQ.

^ very good to know, thanks Entropy!

First of all!
I'm sorry....i thought cm10.1 had been released weeks or months before...so that's why,i asked

Xiaomi themselves have described the Find 5 as " most likely next" and I'd prefer if miui was made by them.

You won't see any discussion of their port here due to their rampant GPL noncompliance.
They're kangers of the worst sort.

I'm sure the ROMs are coming, wait til CM 10.1 is mostly stable, I'm impressed how quickly development is proceeding already.

^^ same. CM came quick! This phone is just barely starting to grab peoples attention. Its a slow start because its not an HTC or a Samsung, or a Sony... or an LG lol. This is their first international phone ever and it's the first time anyone has even heard of OPPO in the mobile world.

Things are really starting to flow now, can't wait to try out al the current custom roms

Rule one is to not ask for ETF, and perhaps make a donation.
