Since I can't post links yet, please bear with me....

I followed the instructions in the DEV thread titled: CWM Rooted Update to STOCK 8.6.5.6 from STOCK 8.4.4.11 US only

My TF is stock (8.4.4.11), rooted, and I had just installed CWM using the Pure root v4 thread.

Downloaded the 3.2_root file, copied it to my mSD card, then rebooted into CWM Recovery. Upon install, it threw an error about being unable to patch libnvomx, which I remembered I had overwritten for the Netflix hack. I rebooted, copied back the original file, then re-ran the 3.2_Root file, and Voila!

I then copied back the hacked libnvomx file, rebooted, and Netflix works great.

About tablet page shows:

Android version: 3.2

GPS Version: 1.5.0

Wi-Fi version: V5.2.52

Bluetooth version: V6.19

Kernel version: 2.6.36.3 android (at) Mercury #1

Build Number: HTJ85B.US_epad-8.6.5.6-20110726

So, assuming the patched file did what it says, it seems to be working. I am now getting what I think is a newer update message than before. The notification bar tells me: Asus System Firmware Update Service: New system firmware update available, press to upgrade.

Guess I'll have to kill that service???
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tekkitan:
Okay, how about non rooted? :P

It worked on 3.1 rooted too. Whats the big deal?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pmco:
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong...

I thought people were saying Netflix wasn't working at all (rooted or non-rooted) on 3.2?

Or is the way I did the update the only way to maintain root and get 3.2?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] turbulent28:
People were expecting netflix capabilities without root
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tekkitan:
nah it worked with root in 3.1 after some modification.

The update downloaded and I tried installing it.

It rebooted, showed the EEE Pad boot up screen forever.

I can turn it off by holding the power button for 10 secs. But it comes back on after 3 seconds showing the same screen.

I've looked up the unbricking threads but couldn't find anything that works.

Any help? Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tekkitan:
Define "forever". Because forever usually means an infinite amount of time.

Usually rebooting while it is at that screen is a HUGE no no.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krispy1:
it may have been your fault.. it gets into a boot screen and takes almost 5 minutes u may have been impatient
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
It stayed there for 25 mins at least
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
No, it was more than 25 mins.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tekkitan:
Usually still a bad idea to reboot it at that screen. You will probably need to contact Asus.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krispy1:
25 minutes is too long, if theres no way to revive it call asus they will rma
[Eee Pad Transformer General] konceptz:
Did you try holding power and up for 6 seconds, plugging it into a computer (windows) and seeing if it comes up apx?

If it does, you're fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
That sucks, I only got it 2 days ago.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
Tried that, nothing happening in windows.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] killerxmic:
It's not bricked. .m having theme problem. When you press power again hold down volume and power and top left you'll see some white letters don't press anything and it will say press up or down. Do not press the button to wipe. I can't remember if it was up or down. Let everyone know if that works.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
Find the thread to flash it with nvflash. Just flash the stock ROM onto it and you'll be set.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
Okay after lots of trial and error I manage to get into APX.

Does anyone know what to do so I can restore the boot?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] LanEvo:
IF you got it 2 days ago, then return it or exchange it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
Yeah, I'll do that if my recovery attempts fail.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
Update: Used nvflash to put back the stock image.

Everything transferred and installed fine. It rebooted, got to the set up screen.

(Smile on my face) then ...

the touch screen is totally unresponsive.

:(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Factory reset the tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ran_k:
i had that problem, did WIPE and the transformer rebooted with the new update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
Thanks guys but how do I do a factory reset without going into the HC settings? I cannot use the Android software-wise at all to get to settings - let alone get past the registration screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rpavich:
Just hold the power button down until the TF shuts off and goes black screen...then turn it back on.

IF that does nothing, re-NV flash....I had to do mine 3 times before it took last night. (download a fresh copy of NV flash also...the one that's "prepackaged with a stock rom" in it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Hold volume down and power button for a few seconds, wait for screen to come on and it says some text at the top left of screen....release buttons, wait 5 seconds until the screen changes, then do what it says onscreen and press volume up to wipe. Back up any data you want to keep beforehand of course.

I have the exact same problem, after trying to update to 3.2 I got stuck at the first splash screen. I put my TF into APX mode and did the nvflash again. Then I update CWM to 3,1 and then wiped and flash Roach's 3.2 ROM and now I'm back in business.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] newtybar:
what happened to all of your data and apps?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eddiezane:
sounds like the kind of update htc would release...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoTeC:
We had a Google+ Hangout going last night while members were updating all together on video. One member, ZGerman had this frozen EEE Pad screen for at least 5 minutes while the rest of us booted right through it. He was definitely frozen there. He simply hit the power button for 10 seconds and pressed it again for 2 seconds and it continued on as we all watched. Not sure what caused it but it did finish the update and all went good. It may be too late now if you have gone to APX mode. Bummer...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Friko:
Thanks for all the help and tips everyone. I decided to return it to the store and got a replacement.

Please feel free to keep using this thread to offer advice for others who are having the same problem.

Good question about the data left on it, I'd like to know as well. Thank God I didn't leave any personal details or login details on it.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Almighty1:
The GMail on the market is for anything up to Android 2.3.4 only since your Xoom has Gmail 3.2 which is newer than 2.3.4, remember 3.2 is a higher version #, Honeycomb 3.1 comes with Gmail 3.1.

Is there anyway to find out the version of gmail in xoom? When I check in setting>about, there is no statement about the version.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanshinG1:
Version code, not the user-oriented VersionName is used by the market to determine newer APK. They must be Max SDK filtering. Its actually listed as incompatible on honeycomb.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Almighty1:
Manage Applications in Settings or Titanium Backup will show it. Honeycomb 3.1 comes with Gmail 3.1 and Honeycomb 3.2 comes with Gmail 3.2, both are 3.x while the market version is 2.x.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivorycruncher:
I have the official Fascinate car dock, which works great, generally speaking. However, I have noticed a particularly annoying issue. I was previously on ComRom 2.1, and now am on jt's CM7, with the dock audio fix and the Galaxy S dock audio redirector app. In both cases, even though audio for most things comes through my car's speakers, in-call audio absolutely refuses to transmit via the USB connector. I have to manually press the speakerphone button and use it that way, which is really lame.

Before I had the dock, I hooked the cable directly to the phone's headphone port, and when a call came in, it would route the audio through the car speakers, and activate the speakerphone mic, as it should. I don't understand why the USB dock will not route the in-call audio properly. Is there a technical reason preventing it, or is it just a design deficiency?

Also, there is a Dock Audio setting in the Android OS settings that claims the phone must be plugged into a dock before you can access the settings, but when I actually do plug the phone into the dock, this option becomes grayed out entirely. Are the settings only available a desk dock or something?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivorycruncher:
Nobody? Am I the only one that uses the car dock or something? I can't believe I'm the only one that's frustrated by this lack of functionality in an official accessory.

[Nexus S General] Award Tour:
I bet part of this was to stay competitive in the future iPhone market. I know there's only slight hints for an iPhone on Sprint, but I can feel it coming.The iPhone 5 will probably "only" be HSPA+ ready, but next year I'm sure it will be LTE ready. I very much doubt that Apple would build a WiMax version of the iPhone for only Sprint, and with Sprint's future looking bleak, they need every competitive advantage they can get.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
Ok it is my good sir
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
That could definitely be a reason. Steve Jobs wouldn't approve a WiMax iPhone.
[Nexus S General] newspeak:
Well they need to something and i doubt its because of the iphone... Sure sprint has wimax but it Really can't compete with verizon LTE and the sprint 3g network is really slow compared to every other carrier... I am really curious to hear what they have planned... I want to be a sprint customer but i won't jump ship untill i can get consistently fast speeds like i have on tmobile
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
Their 3G was top notch for a while and LTE and WiMax would both be ****ty on the 2500 spectrum WiMax is on right now. LTE from light squares is going on 1600
[Nexus S General] petrochemicals:
But think about this. They are not going to be sinking any more money into Wimax now to expand it. And they are starting from scratch for LTE. By the time they even have enough LTE as they do Wimax (which still is not a lot) everyone else is going to be done building their LTE network. So basically Sprint is not going to have a good 4G network now for at least 4-5 years. So everyone get used to your slow data speeds. We are gonna have em for a while. Yay, way to go Sprint.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
Your basing all this on the mistaken notion that Sprint is going to start building an LTE network from scratch starting right now.

Lightsquared has been working on this for a while and should launch next year.
[Nexus S General] DirtyShroomz:
They're not stopping their wimax network if that's what you think
[Nexus S General] shabbypenguin:
they have a contarct to use clears wimax until 2012, they said ages ago, to switch from wimax to lte takes 1 module added onto the tower, so a year tops to convert wimax locations to lte locations
[Nexus S General] mikerowes69:
Apple Exec's and Sprint Exec's do not like each other at all. Apple thinks Sprint is a 2nd rate wireless company going down the tubes. Sprint would not be willing to pay their royalty clauses that Apple wants. You like Iphone 4 or 5 you need to go to Verizon or At&T. Samsung & HTC phones have gotten so much better. It is real competition now to Apple. Until the relationship is repaired you will never see an Iphone on Sprint.
[Nexus S General] cdw9800:
sounds good but now i wonder if people are going to hold off on current phones and future phones waiting for LTE Models i doubt it but it could hurt a bit

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthorson910:
I rooted my incredible about 2 weeks ago, and after jumping around from rom to rom, but finally settled on cm7. 1rc1. At first battery life was great, I could finally get through a full day of normal use. I'm running the stock kernel, conservative governor, 998/245, and a screen off profile of 384/245, and also on the conservative governor. Then I read something about wiping battery stats yielding better battery life, and so I looked up exactly how to do it, and now my battery life went way down. Can't get close to getting a full days use out of it anymore.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
How did you do it? Maybe you did it wrong. Also it DOES take a couple days for it to fully re-calibrate, so give it a few days too if you haven't.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthorson910:
I charged the battery fully with it powered on. Then turned the device off and plugged it back in and waited for the light to turn green again. Then I booted it into recovery, and clicked wipe battery stats, and re booted the phone. Once it booted up I unplugged it and used it normally all day until the battery died and the phone shut itself off. Once I did that I plugged it into the charger and let it fully charge.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthorson910:
Will do when I get home, thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
Sounds like you did everything right. I say give it 3-5 days (I know a long wait) but usually that does fix a lot of calibration issues.

and there's a calibration app? craziness! I must see this..
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlokos:
If you are still having battery life issues, I suggest you install Chad's latest stable incredikernel (7/06/2011). I use it with CM7 and get very good battery life. You might also find juice defender helpful; set it to aggressive. Also you may want to manually adjust screen brightness settings.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
Yep... There is a battery calibration app and it really does work. Wipes the stats for you and rewrites them. Just search the market for battery calibration. Should be right at the top.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
The nice thing about the kernel is you can flash a mod onto it that will charge the battery FAST. (If battery life is gonna suck, at least gimme fast charging!) Not sure its on the thread. It is on his blog page at incredikernel.com.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthorson910:
Battery life is back to normal. Just for the heck of it I did a full wipe, and and re installed cm7. 1 in recovery instead of rom manager, used the calibration App, and went thru 2 charging cycles. Thanks everyone!

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthorson910:
Awesome. I'm going to flash his latest kernel and try it out. I'm gonna have to look up how to adjust the voltages correctly for the best results
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
There isn't really a "right" way to do it, per se. This is what I'd recommend: on the voltage control screen, there are buttons at the top to increase or decrease the maximum and minimum voltages (in increments of 25). The top buttons apply this change to all frequencies instead of having to adjust the voltage on each individual frequency. I'd try dropping all voltages (maximum and minimum) by 50, and see if your phone is stable that way. There are apps that you can use to do a CPU stress test (setCPU does this), so try that and see if you run into any reboots or anything. If not, keep dropping the voltages (I'd do this in increments of 25) until you run into instability. Use the lowest possible voltages you can with your phone remaining stable and you should notice some increased battery life.

Hope this helps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cthorson910:
OK, thanks. Does the stress test on setcpu stop after a certain length of time? If not how long should I let it run?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
I let it run for a few minutes. Just press back once and it will say how many milliseconds it was running and if there were any errors.

[Verizon Droid Charge] ibz41:
Hi, I just joined the Charge party today... coming from fascinate and have a few questions before i dive into flashing on this phone. My concerns are all related to reactivating the phone after factory reset or flashing roms since this is my first phone with a sim card.

1) Does the sim card need to be replaced after resetting or flashing phone??? If not, does the sim card need to be reactivated or does it stay activated???

2) Should the sim card be removed before resetting or flashing phone???

3) What is the process for reactivating because I heard you cant use the *228 method???

Thanks in advance
[Verizon Droid Charge] 24BlackMamba:
the sim card does not need to be removed before flashing, also doesnt need to be replaced after flashing!! and you do NOT use *228 that is not for LTE phones.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kennydied23:
Rebooting the device is the equivalent to dialing *228 for LTE phones
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
I've flashed plenty of things for this phone and the sim card is never involved. The only time I've ever seen the sim card involved is when resetting the phone to stock ed2, but that's no longer necessary seeing as the ee4 method is out.

Beamed from my Droid Charge using the XDA premium app
[Verizon Droid Charge] ibz41:
Thank you for your help.

Does the stock ed2 method require a new sim card???

Asking because sometimes it is necessary to use odin and repartition a phone if having issues coming from voodoo or other issues which simply flashing rom does not correct.
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
No you just need to remove the sim card. I haven't seen any guides or any posts whatsoever on xda about anyone getting a new sim due to a bad flash.

Beamed from my Droid Charge using the XDA premium app
[Verizon Droid Charge] Falcyn:
I've left my SIM card in while flashing every stock build we have and have had zero problems. There's really no reason to ever remove your SIM card.

Think of the sim card like another SD card, basically, that stores your subscriber data separately from the phone. That's really all it is -- a very low-memory storage device. Your phone reads that activation data every time it starts up, which is why you never need to manually activate the phone.
