Disable Asus theme in 4.4? - Asus Transformer TF701

Just bought a tf701t tablet. It came with 4.2 I was able to disable the white default syustrm theme and use standard android colors. Then the update for 4.3 came. Settings stayed. Then this morning the 4.4 update installed now I'm back on this white theme? And the option is gone to disable it?
Anyone know what I'm talking about here?
Thanks.

Nope!
I haven't seen anything like that in 4.4. I had to decompile the frameworkres.apk and systemui.apk and change the colours that way but if you are doing that you may as well load cromi-x. So no way to change them unless you can find an app for root that works with the asus framework which I doubt.

Ah OK cool. Thanks for the answer.
Quick question. I have the tf701t. Is cwm comparable and the ROM? So far I've just unlocked boot loader and rooted.

Sweet I'll have a look tonight. I'm familiar with all this flashing stuff. On my 3rd tablet nexus 7 and 10 and 4th phone android. Galaxy s3 s4 and moto g.
Surprised there isn't more Roms and kernels, such a bad ass device, or am I missing something ? Hahahahh. but after a quick read I see the targa 4 drivers are extremely difficult to code.
Thanks again.

Doubt it hasn't happened already. Quite a few members of CyanogenMod are there, including Cyanogen himself. They're probably waiting to make an official release

I'm looking forward to hearing Cyanogen's analysis of the Nexus 7. Specifically how the internal flash storage is set up and how such for future ROM installation.
Obvious offtopic is obvious

Still haven't gotten 4.1.2 on my N7...

Anyone else not get it yet?
I'm rooted, but that's it. Everything else is stock.
You are not alone. I am rooted with screen dpi changed to 160.

Dear All,
It will slowly trickle out to everyone around the world. It's only been a few days since release so give it some time. I know it is hard to stay calm about a new update. :cyclops:

Sure there is a way. Just downgrade to "...D" first.
Or even better, flash the factory image.
seriously guys, it's mega easy to sideload via adb an OTA now... couldn't quite believe how easy it is!
you don't need a custom recovery, nor root... completely stock

Ok but it wouldn't be an update anymore would it ? if we agree on the term update.
I'm not even sure that titanium backup would work if I restore apps from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2.

Are you trolling on purpose or just ignorant? Most people don't want to downgrade and have to setup their device again for an update. We just want to update our devices and keep our apps and app data. And so far it looks like it's simply not possible, as Google has not released an update for JRO03S at all.
Please use one of the existing threads to discuss this.

Girl into Droid!

Hello everyone!
My name is Anastasia, I am 19 years old, from London.
Yesterday, I bought myself (thanks to my payday) a brand new Asus Google Nexus 7, 32gb, from Argos (shop).
I keep reading what you get with root, and it made me WANT to root it.
Here's my information:
Nexus 7
JOP40D
4.2.1
So, the tablet is brand new, and I HAVEN'T touched it, except when I downloaded few Apps. So, all I want, is to ROOT it in the safest and easiest way. I am scared that it brakes? Anyways, what is the FIRST step? I need it rooted and ready to rock. (Themes, Hide bar, etc.). What, Should, I, Do? Thanks a lot to everyone! I hope I can make it? Take care xoxo

Don't worry. The Nexus 7 is almost unbrickable (can't break it by messing with the software).
You should definatly root it, and when you get the knowladge of what you are doing get a custom recovery, and flash a new ROM, maybe a theme. Trust me you just got a device running android. It's never ending fun. :highfive:
Here you go. http://xda-university.com/.
That site will help you learn what you are doing.
U can try wugfresh toolkit. That's what i used and has the instructions with it. You will need to have adb set up. there video on YouTube showing steps to set it up with the nexus 7As for roms i have smoothrom installed u can change your theme with theme manager. U can download the themes from playmarket or on the xdA website.

Woah! Is that a brick? Nope. You can still go to the recovery partition and reflash a different kernel. Or you can boot to the bootloader and use fastboot to flash a new kernel. If you were bricked you would never be able to use your device again.

Never use a toolkit, its just as easy to do with adb and fastboot, and you have minimal chance of breaking anything or having issues.

Try this option. It is an app that you install that creates a flash able package that will give you tablet ui

thanks for all the response. I am quite happy with stock ROM actually, espesically newest Google update 4.2.2 has been great battery life and fixed a lot of issues. so I am kind of not into mode to flash a different ROM so just get tablet UI mode. I know you can modify build.prop, but again it does not quite works from app to app.
i was kind of asking around and see if anyone has some other solution, preferably a safe method that does not mess up system files (and OTA update fails when there's new release Google pushes!).

TWRP On TF701T

Hi,
I've looked for a thread on this, but all I can find is the TF700T. So I figured I'd start one. If it's a dupe, please just point me in the right direction and I'll ask the Moderator to delete this one. Thanks!
Anyway, I'm wondering if there's any way to get TWRP on an ASUS TF701T? I have CWM on it, but I need to be able to back up to my 64GB SD Card that I have installed in the slot and CWM won't see anything over 32GB, nor anything that's not formatted to FAT32. No offense to anyone who likes CWM, but in 2014, that's just weak.
Any help would be appreciated very much! I have been looking for days all over the Internet and in these forums and simply cannot find what I'm looking for.
There's no TWRP version for TF701 yet - unfortunately. Not even a touch version of CWM :crying:

Okay, I started to read the URL, then quit, because I can't stand reading pages, looking for the purpose of it.
No offense to you. I appreciate you pasting in the link! But really quickly, what is it for? Formatting larger than 32GB as FAT32, or something to that effect?
Also, aren't you the guy that makes those way cool kernels, like the one I was using for quite a while? It allowed OverClocking and stuff?
Curious: Do you have one for:
HTC One 64GB Developers Edition
BootLdr/GSM Unlocked (MetroPCS)
Factory ROM, KitKat v4.4.2, Rooted
CWM Recovery
Also.....
ASUS TF701T Tablet 10"
Factory ROM, JB v4.3, Rooted
CWM Recovery
I don't want to install a Custom ROM or anything. I like to start from scratch and then tweak the Factory ROM to the way I want my device to be, one modification/tweak at a time.
I know you had one when I was doing my Galaxy Tab and I have scoured XDA for your Kernels, because I only use stuff that I really trust and I really trust your work!
I'm not trying to be lazy here, even though it may seem it from not reading the whole URL. But that's not it. I'm just a "to the point" guy. I'm not saying I never ramble, but you will know what the purpose is rather quickly. <lol> And as I said, I did scour XDA and Google as best I could (for 3 days now) to find one by you that will work on my device, but I just could not find one.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME GUYS!!!

Hi, i gave a try a few days ago to build TWRP for TF701T; i think that my twrp.fstab is correct and that my TWRP build flags are OK too BUT the file i built was not working at all => touchscreen not working at all, dock keyboard was not working neither but recovery was correctly booting into itself... that is all because without any input method working, i got stucked into it !
I truly hope that you will produce a working one :fingers-crossed: and i really like to try your upcoming TWRP for TF701T builds out...
Just let me know about it...
Kind regards

The TF701 was released what one or two years ago and still no touch recovery. This is a very good device and one of the more overlooked, IMO.
Makes me wonder why no one that has the knowhow can or will make the touch drivers needed for such a recovery
I very much agree with the post above this post, it says it best.
