Alright, so I found this really cool mod for my Asus Transformer a few weeks back, and thought I might share it with the lovely folks at the Prevail community! :) With this app, you can add lots of tweaks and goodies to your custom rom at will. I haven't seen anybody post a thread or post regarding this so if it's a repost, I'm sorry :(
A lot of the tweaks will only work with CM9, but there's others that will work with gingerbread as well! :D
Without further ado, PiMP My RoM!
 
can this work with ctmod 3.75 ?
I tried three different tweaks, they all boot looped my phone, odds are it won't work because of a frame buffer issue, I've uninstalled it. :\

;)

Some may work, some may cause a bootloop. Just make sure you have a backup before you try any :)

Right on man. Lordvincent pointed me in the direction of the Paranoid Android ROM and I haven't looked back. It's a great ROM. :)

So how do you like your Asus?

It is phenomenal! The amount of development and the breeze it is to flash stuff is mind-boggling!! I have so many ROMs on it's internal storage I don't know which is which! Not to mention the fact that there's plenty of kernels available! (For ICS anyway.)
However, I did try to flash a font with ROM manager, and it got stuck. So I turned it off... and then the tablet got stuck at the boot logo... then i got mad... then I threw it at my bean bag... I fixed it eventually but it gets in a recovery boot loop and I can't overwrite recovery, so no twrp for me

Really? Did you try fastboot? You should be able to install SDK with fastboot and flash the blob that way.

I learned awhile back not to even mess with ROM manager. The last time I tried using it the motherboard on my Marquee mysteriously got fried. No more ROM manager for me even if it says it's compatible with my device. lol :D

There is a new version of Paranoid Android that just came out for my tab. I would be running it but there's not an OCed kernel available for it yet. I tried the kernel for the older version of PA last night and it put me in a bootloop. I must admit that was a little scary after reading that so many people have bricked their TF300t's. I'll just wait until I know for sure it'll work before I upgrade to the newer version.

Like I said earlier, I have Lordvincent to thank for pointing my to PA. I wasn't even going to try that ROM until he said it was what he is running and that he loved it. That was good enough info for me. If he says it's good, it's awesome! :D

LOL yeah ROM manager scares me XD
My brother got a tablet of some sorts. I'm looking to root it and get PA on it as well. :p
And as for my own, if I connect it to any computer, it says it's malfunctioned. I'm not going to sell it how it is. I can boot into android just fine, and I plan on keeping it that way :)

Hmmm, I don't think I've ever seen a device malfunction error. Hey, at least its still working OK for you. If there was a chance of bricking it, I would probably make the same decision you did and leave it as is. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters.

Asus tablets are nice. The only drawback I've seen is that they are easy to brick.
