Sorry about the vid, but I love the new "recovery screen" nobody is talking about it yet!! That's why I made a crude vid of me rebooting it, wiping the data, the cache partition, also a quick peek at the camera and dialer as well as the new "emoji" keyboard.. my battery life is alot better and the ability to sync w bluetooth devices are even better! Like not draining but likewise ive always been able to {pair} but not connect.. or stay connected with some generic bluetooth devices but I dont see this as a prob!

The option for settings, applications, development, screen stays on during charging, has "left the building" in almost all current roms. I can not locate anywhere else in settings. My question is how do i get it back? flash a modem , or ist it kernal related?
I think the importance of this feature is quite obvious i.e. using NAV while driving and your screens turns off, or using the music player, etc, etc, etc.
I have tried for hours to search on this and have found nothing.
Thanks in advance!

its something samsung removed in 2.2.1......not kernel or modem related. not much you can do right now unless you or a dev want to figure out how to get that setting back
by the way, NAV doesnt shut off, regardless of that setting
your only other option is to go back to 2.2

Thanks for the quick response Pirateghost!!
maybe i can live with out it :/
I'm no dev, and it seems the devs obviously think it wasnt that big of a loss. Otherwise it would have been in the roms already LOL.
Again thanks for the quick response!

Does this mean that falshing a 2.2 kernal will not resolve this?
i.e I flash perception or pheonix then flash a 2.2 kernal.
Or would the rom have to be complete 2.2 like Cog 2.3b8
2.3b8 is the only rom i have found so far that has the option.
Thanks in advance!

This has nothing to do with the kernel. It is in the rom so if you want the feature you need to flash a complete 2.2 rom. Honestly, where are you missing it the most?

When im driving, if i want to switch a track from the music player its nice to just swype the screen, instead of having to handle the phone to turn on from sleep then unlock it. Also at least for me NAV would shut off.
Personaly every other phone i have ever had, has had a setting to keep the display on all the time or timed shut off. This is nothing new and it should be standard in my opinion.
Get this app "battery booster". This has an option to set the screen to always on too. But remember, leaving the screen on like that could cause a burn in effect.

But I don't believe a burn in effect is possible OLED type displays theres nothing that can "ghost" chemicaly or otherwise, FYI
This was a big problem however with plasma displays.
Thats why plasma production has droped over 80 percent and its way more expensive than amoled or oled.

If u r planning to use this at night, I would recommend to get a "screen filter" app too that can help reduce the brightness of screen so it does not strain ur eyes.

I've seen visible image retention (which is temporary) on my Captivate's display.
Burn-in (as in burning into the glass, which is permanent) was only an issue with the earliest plasmas. Leaving a still image on a current plasma for 48 hours will give you some heavy image retention, which can be cured within 24 hours with noise/special patterns/normal usage.

I got an app called Screen On Toggler from market to keep the screen alive.
It has a handy dandy shortcut that is activated by holding the search softkey.

Hi guys, I have annoying probnlem with my LG 4x... When I work little bit longer on my phone, it just starts to behave crazy. Screen starts to "touch himself" I just look at it and he starts to get in menus, opening pictures, closing apps, opening new ones... I just lock screen for 10 secs and than everything is fine for few minutes. Than same thing again. This happens with every ROM and every karnel I try til now. Works fine only with stock. I'm now on Beanstalk 4.4 and iodak 9.95. Thanks!!!

Its a weird issue, are you sure it works fine on stock? because it sounds like a digitizer issue to me (rather than software, since the rest of us dont have this issue)
im not sure where to begin lol, can you pull some logs? (dmesg and logcat)
Oh.. and I guessed it was only me.
I have this problem too, works fine with stock but it goes crazy with custom rom.
Any idea ?

No worries, nothing out of the ordinary in the logs, its looking more like hardware(hopefully im wrong). It might be worth testing a stock rom under the same conditions again, if there is no issue, then theres something weird going on. btw 50c is fine temp for cpu, around 75c is the limit.
Can you get a screen recording of it? (most 4.4 based roms have this functionality built in) this could be helpful also https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ds.cpuoverlay

I don't know why, but every time I tried to record screen, phone just reboots. I tried with various apps, every time same thing. I cant find built in app in beanstalk 4.4. I'll try stock again but cant before tomorow. Thank you for your time
Use beanstalk with grouper blobs, and press vol up and power simultaneously to record

I have been ROM-hopping for 3-4 months and I have tried many ROMs for my i8190.
I found some I really enjoyed, some did not work well for me.
Without meaning to "compare" the ROMs or find "the best ROM ever" I am just looking for some suggestions on ROMs that I can try.
My requirements are very simple:
-OTG support
-No clock freezing
-No battery drain
What ROMs would you suggest?
Please note, I have no intention of comparing the ROMs with one another, I am just looking for suggesstions in case there is something good that I have not tested yet.
Thanks!

Thank you for your time. This was the ROM I installed last and seems to be a good option.
I have been using it for almost a week, I really like the stability, looks like a solid ROM.
I only have one issue with it (all cyanogenmod ROMs basically).
Even though I have turned the backlight of the hardware buttons off, they keep lighting at random times, I have not found what is causing that or how to fix it, can you suggest something or do I just get used to it?

I managed to break my phone's screen so I haven't been using it for the past couple of months but I'm back here to say this solution worked 100% for me, just in case anyone is reading. Thank you!

Wowzers. Thats definetely a memory leak there. Restart the device and that should get rid of it. What was the uptime of the device at that time?

Mine is now doing the same thing. It has slowly gotten worse And is now extremely laggy and battery life has dropped down to the point I have to use power save mode to get through 7.5 hours of work. I haven't installed any new apps and tried factory reset but it hasn't helped at all.

Have you tried doing a reboot? That will usually reset things.
I'll have a new deodexed rom posted tomorrow. Finally got all the issues ironed out with root and stuff. It'll include the memory leak fix.
Well.... the device still runs pretty good, but I'm afraid soon my two favorite apps will lose compatibility cuz the OS is too old... I like it because of the screen size is the minimum acceptable to be able to read music on it...
So, is out there anything newer than the stock 4.4.2 OS ? Anything ?
Should I resign and accept that soon enough I will be better off throwing it away ? At this point I am becoming more and more of a "I just want to use" than a tinkerer... at the same time I hate discarding good things so I usually keep them until their death - in this case, "inability to breath"
but let me hear what you know.
Thanks.

I've been using a Nougat ROM on this tablet for a couple of years, really stable. Haven't heard about more recent ROMs though.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/transformer-tf701/orig-development/rom-t3540259
Thank you. Do you have all the essential features working alright ? For example, I connect a bluetooth pedal to turn music pages; then i also use Google Drive to import the songs I want to the app, so evidently, WiFi is also essential to me
I dont care for camera or anything else, so, is BT and WIFI running fine for you ? Thank you.
Well....... once I ran the ASUS bootloader unlock and it rebooted, I knew I was already screwed cuz the damn **** wiped everything ..... so I bit the bullet and went ahead and installed everything: new custom recovery, the Katkiss and went ahead... seems that everything is working though I havent tested BT just yet.
WIFI is working just fine, I reinstalled my previous apps. Will test the BT pedal tomorrow, but so far, looks great ! This should get me running for another 4-5 years LOL
Thanks again for the link. I will go ahead and donate to that guy who made the 7.0.1 thing for us.
Confirmed BT works fine.
I'm glad someone else asked this. What ROM did you go with and what do you think of it ?
I used the ROM that is in this thread to replace the stock kitkat (is that what it was before ?) This rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tra...t/rom-t3540259
The only two (three?) things I noticed:
1 ) The battery runs faster than on the old original firmware, however, it can be drastically "enhanced" by using "Battery Doctor".
2) Cannot connect anymore to the laptop or any other charger - it simply will not charge from anywhere else that is not the original wall charger.
3) I have not tested the camera simply because, I really don't see a use case for a camera on a tablet - we all have a nice smartphone in our pockets, right ?
What I like, is that everything is quite simple and clean; the home key and those other soft keys at the bottom, stay "On" and have an extra set of useful keys.
I had no problem "updating the tablet" following the steps.

It works (almost) fine. I'm afraid to say that I have bad news for you ... =
I tried three different camera apps, starting with the "Open camera" and no joy - it says that "the camera seems to be in use by another application" and gives up.
Then I tried two others that came first in the Play Store and got the same kinda of message about not being able to connect to the camera.
Sorry for you who needs the camera - for my own use, it's became good enough.
