Hello,

Trying to root my TF300TG with the "1-Click Transformer Root" failed and my fastboot/recovery is damaged.

Trying to boot with vol-down and power key ends with a android lying on the back :(

Trying to root my pad with this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1706588 worked perfectly.

So I have root, but no recovery.

Is there a way to bring them back?

Thanks

Chris
[Transformer TF300T General] MiGri:
Unfortunately I don't know how to get back your recovery.

But I thank you for warning about "1-Click Transformer Root" in combination with the .40 firmware.

I can confirm, that rooting my TF300TG with .40 firmware using http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1706588 works without problems.

Edit: I tried to get into the (stock) recovery and I can't get into it, too. Instead I get the lying robot with the warning sign. Seems that something during the rooting process kills the recovery.
[Transformer TF300T General] slide200sx:
I want to root mine, but do any of you know to get back the recovery or any recovery at all?

I also want to know if you do the root before the .40 update will you have recovery after?

Thank you big:)
[Transformer TF300T General] blackynet:
I root after the .40 update and no I have not found a way to fix my recovery for now.

I first use a tool that did root and flash a new recovery. But I did not get root and my recovery was broken.

The debugfs tool did only root your pad, so I think there will nothing happend with your recovery.

regards
[Transformer TF300T General] klownin5643:
Your recovery is fine. Nothing has changed unless you rooted successfully. Your recovery has not been touched yet to my knowledge. Does your tab boot to the operating system? If so you are fine.

---------- Post added at 02:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 AM ----------

I think you can only flash the new recovery AFTER you unlock the boot loader.
[Transformer TF300T General] keehweeh:
I don't know but can't you just flash a recovery.img or recovery.blob via fastboot? or is an unlocked bootloader needed for this?

(I did this and it worked, will also work for you if your PC still recognises the fastboot device...again, I'm unsure whether unlocked bootloader is needed)
[Transformer TF300T General] slide200sx:
I unlocked bootloader and then used adb to push the cwm recovery, then used the root zip

worked for me, i had just got mine and feeling bad that the update just downloaded and wanted to install .40 all it all time but after i did it was still good....plus i had to learn adb to do it as the commands given had been wrong and didnt work,,,lol
[Transformer TF300T General] Blubberor:
For my case rooting worked with the one clock tool ???
[Transformer TF300T General] Wolf Hamburg:
Hello ...

First, sorry for my bad english, I'm from Germany and use the google translator

Similar with me...

I rooted my TF300TG with the '1-Click Transformer root '.

It worked and I have root. However, I have now tried to boot into recovery I get after a while the lying Android.

My firmware version is ww_9.4.4.40

The tablet is working properly, I only have no recovery. Do I get now no more OTA updates? How can I fix the Recovery?

Who can help?

Regards, Wolf
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
Are you saying you had recovery before? That version number is stock, so either you unlocked the bootloader previously and loaded recovery then lost it, or you never had it. In any case, to get it, you must unlock the bootloader to do it.
[Transformer TF300T General] Wolf Hamburg:
yes, i know... the 9.4.4.40 is stock ics.

i never tries before i have rooted to boot in recovery. i thought each version, if stock or custom, has a recovery?

my bootloader is locked end i never flashed e recovery.

so it is normal that the stock 9.4.4.40 ics has no recovery? but when i boot with power/volume down and then volume up, the tf300tg tries to boot in recovery and after a little while the android lay down... ist this normal behavior for the stock 9.4.4.40 ?
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
You do not have recovery by default, and you cannot have it without unlocking the bootloader.

Fortunately you can still root on ICS. Search the Dev section for the debugfs method for rooting on ICS.
[Transformer TF300T General] Wolf Hamburg:
no, i have root. the one click tool has worked fine without errors... how it looks for ota updates? I read somewhere that i must have stock recovery for ota updates?! but with an open bootloader ota updates???
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
I'm told unlocked bootloader cancels ota but you can still manually update.
[Transformer TF300T General] optigiu:
Well. I have a TF300TG with stock 9.4.4.40 firmware (never tried to root, mod or anithing else) and I would like to simply root it...

I've seen many comments saying that after rooting, the stock recovery is lost (lying Android robot after Power+VolDown key press), and other replies stating that this is normal and that there isn't any stock recovery on the pad.

My five cents to this thread are that on my fresh pad I've tried to start from poweroff with Power+VolDown and I get something like a raw menu, with two icons at the center of the screen, giving me the option to make a full wipe or a cold boot (and maybe something else but I hadn't have time to go deeper inside it due to the timeout).

In any case, I don't get any lying Android robot!

Now, I'm a little scared to go on rooting my pad until this matter becomes definely clear...

Cheers
[Transformer TF300T General] Wolf Hamburg:
Yes, this menu also comes to me.

But if I by power / volume down when the top left of the logo appears, press volume up, the pad trying to boot into recovery.

in your virginal system as well?
[Transformer TF300T General] optigiu:
Ok, I've tried to press Power/VolDown and then, soon after the ASUS logo appeared at the center of the screen and a couple of rows of (small fonts) text were displayed at the top left, I released the two buttons and pressed just the VolUP; the result was that the screen was cleared and a standing green android robot appeared at the center with (kinda of) a blue progress bar under it; then, after about 1 sec, the figure was substituted by a lying green android robot having an open door at his "stomach" and a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside.

Is there any other check we can make on my fresh and your rooted systems in order to verify that rooting a TF300TG with 'one click transformer root' is safe? (what version did you use, 1.0 or 1.1?)

Edit: only now I've read this ... so it should be safe :fingers-crossed:
[Transformer TF300T General] Wolf Hamburg:
yes, now we can relax and wait for Jelly Bean :D
[Transformer TF300T General] raulsue:
If itt. Is just your recovery that is lost no worries use fast boot and flash twrp or cwm
[Transformer TF300T General] badmania98:
Could you write a step by step guide about how to unlock bootloader and push the cwm recovery? Thanks.
[Transformer TF300T General] blackynet:
Thanks for all your replays and testings ;)

So it looks like that the stock rom have no recovery and trying to boot in it ends up with a "dead" Android...

Yesterday I have upgrade my tablet to WW_epad_10.4.3.4 (Jelly Bean) with OTA without any problems. And I think it is faster and it runs smoother than before.

To keep my root I have installed Voodoo OTA RootKeeper. And after OTA update I go to the app, klick on restore root and......... It works :))
[Transformer TF300T General] lenrek:
:good:

How I wish I have known this earlier...
[Transformer TF300T General] TenTwenty:
Hi

Did you use 1-Click Transformer Root? I use it and everything is working fine EXCEPT for NOT having recovery.:victory: Other than that I have done nothing else and have now installed Voodoo OTA RootKeeper Now have a backup.:D

This is for a TF300TG and I don't want to lose 3G.

Hello,

i have a problem recompiling framework-res.apk.

I can flawlessly decompile and change any other apk (also system apks).

Decompiling the framework-res.apk goes flawlessly as well...

But when i try to recompile apktool tells me

then it gives and incredible long error message that something is wrong in values/plurals (I have not even touched it!!) and some other **** that may be wrong..

Even if I don´t change anything I get this message..

First of all:

- i have installed the framework (java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk)

- i have updated to the latest aapt.exe

- i am using apktool 1.4.8 but it also happens with all other versions (I tried it)

I don´t know what´s wrong since I can flawlessly change any other apks that way as i told..

I hope you can help me!

Thanks in advance!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akash akya:
Use apkmanager is best...... to install framework, put it in others folder use "apktool if framework-res.apk" cmd..... as ur error says, u r not installed framework correctly i think..... try this....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanier7:
Well... apkmanager is like an automatic Version of apktool...

So I will get same Error...

Can´t anyone help me? Has no one ever discovered this Problem before?...

That ICS Apktool worked. Allthough i was editing a JB apk...

Thanks anyway :P I hop it will remain working;) Otherwise I´ll report on that here.

Thanks again. You saved my ass.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spartanier7:
The funny thing is that SystemUI is not recompilable with that apktool. But it works fine with my old one..

It seems that it only works for framework-res.apk...

isn´t that strange somehow?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
It is a pain in the ass, try this one for it which is what I use for my SystemUI and other problem APKs, but keep the two separate, so have the first in it's own folder and this in it's own folder...

Ok so my phone started rebooting randomly on gingerbread and then when I went to ics the rebooting stopped but then every app would force constantly making the phone unusable so I did a factory reset that fixed apps then rebooting happened again. Will flashing a rom fix this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] michaelatrix:
Anyone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
The only way to tell is to reset and wipe caches 3 times or flash cwm then wipe everything 3 times then flash stock ics through odin and see if it helped, if not its probably a hardware problem.

How to do all of this is in my sig links.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] escobar301:
Does anyone know why the EVO isn't listed among the devices that will get CM10, or even has CM9 support?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
We need an official maintainer. We absolutely have people working on bringing JB/ICS to our devices, we just don't have anyone who has officially taken on the job yet (though I doubt that will stay the case for long). Several notable members are still working quite hard on it.

Unfortunately, because our phone is specific to Sprint, even though it is for all intensive purposes a One-X, we have a smaller audience for this device than the official One-X. That paired with the fact global/GSM phones tend to get a lot more developer support than CDMA ones explains why the One-X has a much wider variety of development for it.

In short, give it time. It will be worth the wait.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jetpackjeff:
I honesty don't think its possible for this to work on CM9 at this point. I got it to work once by modifying the build.prop model name and flashing a Bell modem on my old SGS2. The same method does not work on the Note. The closest I have come is a message that says "mobile TV coming to your device soon" which means nothing to me. Anyone know how the product model is listed in the stock ICS Bell ROM? I'm guessing its SGH-I717M but I could be wrong, this is what I have modified my build.prop to (as you can see from my sig) yet still no luck. Would like to set this up as it would be nice to check out the Olympics while I'm at work :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnnywhojr:
I would be happy if it would work on any custom rom. Cm9 is nice but stock is boring as hell. Would be sweet ass if someone could cook a bell custom rom. I would if i knew how and had the time. ;)

I notticed that my baseband was EL29. I was supprised that it wasn't causing trouble since it's GB and I was running CM9. I was under the impression that things worked best when modem and kernel were matching.

SO I updated my modem to FF18 and the Kernel/Recovery to TWRP 2.2.1 with FF18. Once rebooted, the WiFi was broken. (can't even turn it on). So I tried FF11 and still no go. I even tried going back to EL29.

No matter what I do, I still don't have WiFi. It's very frustrating:mad:. This is pretty much the first time in 2 years with multiple phones I've been completely stumped. anyone have any advice?

Hey, I have a question about TempRooting my phone. I dont want to root my phone because i dont want to void my warranty. But, I want to do a few things with my software that require root access. For example, I want to install a CRT animation on my phone which, of course, required root access. Basically what my question is, is if I temproot my phone and modify a few things like installing CRT animation, will it void my warranty? I know TempRooting will not void the warranty, but Im curious as to if installing a CRT animation will void the warranty. Also, if I do it, will i still be able to receive the OTA updates via wifi? Thanks guys
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
Temptooting Voids your warranty, Dunno where you heard that it doesn't.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dispozable:
Mod it. Thats all I have to say :)

Using this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1591601 will put you back to stock COMPLETELY. Tmobile can't tell. I got a HD2 with windows mobile on it and flashed android on it. Yea, a completely different OS. Found some hardware issues (was a refurbished phone) restored back to stock using a similar technique and sent it back to Tmo. They have never contacted me or ever asked me about it. My friend also had text messaging problems on his Exhibit. We rooted and flashed CWM and a new rom to see if it fixed and ended up restoring back to stock and getting a different phone. There is also a way to edit the flash counter though I do not know where to find one for our phone atm.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] crazydrummer95:
so basically if I temproot my phone, mod the hell out of it, im good to go? and if i ever need to take it in to Tmobile or if i want to upgrade to 4.0 when the OTA comes out, i just follow that guide and everythings all good? and your sure that its legit and it works? i dont really trust one-click programs
