Oh Oh Oh Keep your calm...Don't shout, this is useless.

Your problem, cause at base it's your fault !!!

You have posted a lot of posts everywhere with same questions, for one thread it's for unlocked the sim card, for other threads it's for unlocked and rooted your tablet, etc....

So please, respect others members who have tried to help you and don't say that our answers are stupid useless automated answers....

I gave you a solution for unlock and root your tablet, but that you don't says that's your tablet is a TF300 TL !!!!

We have give you many solutions but you don't have tried any, isn't it ?

For unlock your tablet, you have only solution. You must use the Unlock tool from Asus (go to my Index)

For the root, you have some tools which can root your tablet without problem.

You are lucky because you can use NVFlash solution

You can just change and adapted your files at your version...that's all

If you want a firmware, you will find in my Index also.

So respect other members and and keep your calm. It's useless to howl.

We are here for help you, don't forget it. We are not a Repair Hot Line for Only You

AND DON'T FORGET TO SAY THANK YOU BY THE "THANKS" BUTTON. YOU NEVER USED IT FOR ALL THE HELP THAT OTHER MEMBERS GAVE YOU.

Problem with TWRP backup

Hi Guys,

I don't post much because most of the issues I've had in the past I've been able to resolve by doing lots of reading. However, this time around, I can't seem to find on XDA or google any answers to my questions so I'm hoping you guys can help or point me in the right direction.

A bit of background for everyone. I'm currently on ICS stock, rooted and unlocked bootloader. I want to eventually flash to BlueAndroid but realized after my first attempt last night and soft-bricking my tablet because BlueAndroid is on JB bootloader, that I have to flash stock JB first. Anyway, I was able to recover from everything starting with NVFlash files, loading TWRP, rooting and then loading stock ICS Rom.

As I am following the installation guide and I am on the part where I am supposed to create a recovery file, both of my questions are TWRP related. My first question is, I can't seem to make a backup with TWRP on the internal SDcard. I believe it has something to do with it not mounting but I have no idea how to get it working. However, I was able to make a backup on the internal SDcard with CWM Recovery...very strange.

My second question is why the TWRP backup is so much smaller than CWM (By the way, I also made recovery with CWM to be safe). I noticed with TWRP that the Data is (0K) is this normal or is it because I cannot mount SD?

Thanks for your help as I am hesitant to continue the process of updating to stock JB...unless it is 100% known that TWRP can recover from external SD.

Thanks

Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

Hey GK1016,

Thanks for this post as I was stumped on why it would just boot back to ICS again. However, I still have a problem and I'm hoping you or someone can help. I'll give you some background first. I'm on the latest stock ICS, unlocked and twrp installed. I've made a backup but interestingly enough, it wouldn't save on the sdcard. It would only save on the external but that's a separate issue.

Anyway, I copied the command file to /cache/recovery. Renamed dlpkgfile.tz to dlpkgfile and placed it in /cache and proceeded to reboot into recovery to initiate the command script. Teamwin logo appeared, then the command script ran and aborted.

Here's the log:

Finding update package...

I:Update location: /cache/dlpkgfile

Opening update package...

E:Can't open /cache/dlpkgfile

(bad)

Installation aborted.

Any ideas? Should I remove the TWRP recovery? Fastboot the JB Rom?

Help is much appreciated.

Thanks

A

UPDATE: 100% sure I need to REFLASH to stock ROM to get rid of TWRP so trying now. I read stock assuming that if I was already on stock it would be OK but seems I need to reflash stock.

Go back to your Apple, anyone who throws a tab like that is troubled, or a spoilt child.
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
Yes, rename it to dlpkgfile :)

Added it in instructions ;)

TWRP, CWM doesn't have Jellybean recovery yet :p

Adding apps to your system folder shouldn't cause a failure, modded system apps can cause a failure to update maybe, I'm not sure.

EDIT: I Updated the installation instructions a little bit, hope it is even easier now :)

i got recovery working but i cannot boot into cyanogenmod !!!

restored the backup and cannot boot into stock too!!!!
[Transformer TF300T General] DMardroid:

[Transformer TF300T General] kindrudekid:
huh????

you too stuck on ASus boot screen with device unlocked message?
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
The recovery has a bug in backup and restore option like said before.

This guide is only for upgrading to Jellybean. It has nothing to do with Cyanogenmod roms..

What did you guys exactly do? Can you acces bootloader?

Try to flash the cyanogenmod or stock kernel to fix it.
[Transformer TF300T General] kindrudekid:
i flashed cyanogen mod......

stuck on the device is unlocked on top left corner screen since past 20 minutes :(
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
Try to press volume up + power key to shut the tablet down,

Then try to access the bootloader and tell me if you can access it?
[Transformer TF300T General] kindrudekid:
yes i can

i can even see TWR ....... and flash stuff
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
ok, Try to flash cyanogenmod again, then go to bootloader and manually flash the kernel using fastboot.

Or you can try to flash the stock 9.4.3.30 update from Asus support site?
[Transformer TF300T General] DMardroid:
I did flash stock 9.4.3.30 and try to reboot I get red letters in top right "signature mismatch"

Note: previously was on Official JB. And Im sure I messed it up once I tried yo flash CM 4.1.1
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
Try flashing CM 4.1.1 again, then flash the kernel manually with fastboot.
[Transformer TF300T General] DMardroid:
How would I flash the kernel?
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
If the kernel from CM 4.1.1 is a boot.img use this command in fastboot: fastboot flash boot boot.img

Or is it a blob file?
[Transformer TF300T General] DMardroid:
Blob I believe.. well cm was a zip
[Transformer TF300T General] krabappel2548:
try: fastboot flash boot "Filename".blob
[Transformer TF300T General] danomat1073:

I have a question please. I've already upgraded to jb. My bootloader is locked. Can I use the fastboot to flash the .30 blob to boot and basically downgrade? I'm trying to backout of jb. Just curious if anyone has tried this, but again, the bootloader is locked at this time.
[Transformer TF300T General] pendragon11:
So if downgrading currently causes soft brick, will it be possible in the near future? I guess really this is the launching pad for new development, so it will soon be an obsolete question, just curious. I want this goodness but am really awaiting new development once source is out.

[Transformer TF300T General] Caliburno:
I asked to unlock the sim and the answers said i need to root, so i changed the question. Then, the rooting never came.

I said is a TL on every place that i ask. And if someone HAS NOT READ IT (as it seems your case) i explained that the guides dont work for TL. The closer to have read it is a TL is some people said "guide is for T but may work on TL"

So please, don'nt try to reverse the charge on responsability, is a sychopat thing.

If you have given any solution, i would now have the tablet rooted, BUT none of the answers i got worked, so NO, you have not provided solutions and YES i have tried everything they told, that's why i say none has worked.

That i have made BEFORE even knowing this forum.

It seems there is none.

How could i know how to adapt my files at my version?... There is no guide that explain that, and the only guide i have found that says search this or that, it didn't worked, because the required files were not found. So, double no, it does not work.

Been over your index up and down, and found nothing... Or yuor index is a bit extra messy or you again are confusing models.

Show it please by at least paying atention on what i ask and the details i have provided. Then give a correct answer instead of random answers.

If you're in the middle of the ocean, a ship passes by and they screm you "SWIM!" and leave, you consider that help right?

Well, is not.

As i said, never found the firmware for my tablet on your index and been there up and down....

Anyway, i cant find your index any more...
[Transformer TF300T General] Sib64:
Mister Caliburno,

I will not longer continue to discuss with you because you're a incredible and bad faith.

My index

is sticked and really easy to find and in my signature too. Then as I you already wrote all that is for the TF300TL is at the end of my index (thanks to @CrimsonKnight13

In addition, on the fact that you have posted anywhere that you had a tf300TL, this is still wrong, because you have written it only once (post #1 = unlock, root, the noobest noob question.).

And I cannot accept when you says

And that true that when

Yes, it's the international Sea law ! (I'm sailor for my hobby).

But you are not in the middle of the ocean, you are in Xda community, and we are here for help members not for taking one shot by a member !

I consider it as a courtesy to answer or to click 'Thanks ' button and it costs you nothing.

It's not for me that I say it, but for all other members who tried to help you. That's it.

The debate is closed.

If you want to discuss, contact me or a mod by PM. Thanks in advance.

End of topic.

Stock ICS with US 9.4.3.30

Hi guys, I'm kinda new to TF300 can someone help me to the right direction my goal is to instal custom JB ROM maybe hydro.

My device is stock ICS US 9.4.3.30, I already did unlocked, NVFLASH tool, installed CWM and root. I have pending OTA updates in my notification bar already waiting before I unlocked my device and I didn't try to install it because I don't know if this will allow me since I'm already unlocked or might brick my device.

Said on the first post I need to DL US 9.4.4.3.30 from ASUS?( Is this typo? should it be 9.4.3.30 which my current version?"

I thought this is the step I need:

1. flash "ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T Firmware: V10.4.2.20 Only for US SKU (Android 4.1)"

2. Install JB compatible recovery

3. Install Custom ROM (Hydro)

I hope someone can help to I can play with this baby for this weekend. Thanks in advance!

Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

[Transformer TF300T General] melvsmeister:

[Transformer TF300T General] xxboarderxx:
Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

I was in the exact same situation as you. If ota works, use it to get stock jb first. You will lose custom recovery so you will have to fast boot cwm or twrp. I recommend the latter. Once you are on jb bootloader you can flash hydro. I'm using that ROM as well and it is great. By the way, when I installed stock jb, my bootloader remained unlocked but I've read others needing to unlock again so just use same Asus unlock app for ics.
[Transformer TF300T General] UndisputedGuy:
Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

If i'm already on JB, would i just start from part 3? Might sound like a stupid question but i really don't want to brick my device.

Also, After installing a recovery, would selecting RCK in the bootloader menu where there are 4 options take me into recovery (TWRP/CWM)?

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
[Transformer TF300T General] melvsmeister:
Yup if you are already in JB just install any recovery indicated in that step and you're good to go to install new ROM.

What I did to my device from stock ICS:

1. Unlock my device using APK

2. NVFLASH tool.

3. Root and install CWM.

4. DL latest JB firmware for your device like mine is US

5. boot to recovery (vol down + power then hit volume up once the text appear) I use CWM.

6. Backup my stock ICS.

7. Install JB firmware from ASUS.

8. Install recovery via fastboot.

9. Boot to recovery like in step 5 and select RCK

10. Install custom ROM (I use Hydro) and GAPPS

I think you are now in installing custom rom part but make sure to do backup. :good:
[Transformer TF300T General] funnel71:
Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
[Transformer TF300T General] melvsmeister:
if I flash the latest ASUS firmware it will remove root right and it will have a stock ASUS android settings? I might be returning mine due to ghost touches and my seller already provided me return label. I hope they will send me brand new one and will not noticed that device was already unlocked.

Hello There

Does somebody know if this Method is also working if the Tablet is bought in Europa (Switzerland)? My build number is 10.4.2.20... in the first post it says it needs the US Firmware for the rooting method.

Would you recommend rooting the device only for having Multitouch with GMD Gesture Control? I'm not sure if it is really worth it, but it seems kind of usefull

Thx for any Answer in advance!
[Transformer TF300T General] raw235:
with a 10.xxxx firmware, you already have jellybean, so this guide is not for you. if you want to root, just continue the guide from "== Part 3 - Install recovery and rooting ==" and have fun. But if you dont really know why you should root your device, wait until you know for sure.

Help, flashed without updating bootloader

Hi guys,

I just flashed my TF300t into CM10.1, but I forgot to update the bootloader, now Im stock at the Asus bootscreen (I already tried restoring to my CM10 and stock rom backup, but no luck)

read the guide in the 1st post, but I'm using CWM v5.5.0.4, I placed the files into my external sdcard (thats all I can access) and now CWM does not recognize my external SD.

Is there any way I can put the firmware files in the internal sd?

or.... any other suggestions?

sorry... im kinda desperate right now

thanks in advance!
[Transformer TF300T General] xxboarderxx:
Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

You need to fastboot stock JB rom before you can do anything. That will put you on jb bootloader. Then install a custom recovery. I recommend twrp instead of cwm.
[Transformer TF300T General] raw235:
dont panic, i had the same problem and got it fixed. as long as you have access to fastboot, all is green.

there are some ways. if your cwm is able to access the internal SD card, i recommend to use "adb push" to push your new image to

the internal SD card. you need to use the "mount sd card" option in cwm to make it accessable. if that does not work for any reason (it should) you also can use fastboot to push files. (google for guide)

xxboarderxx is right, you need to flash the stock JB rom (10.xx.xxx.xx) from asus to update the bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T General] SergioCR:
Im ok with going to TWRP, I mean... I know the commands and everything

But what I dont know, are the commands to flash the entire rom directly from fastboot.... does anyone knows this commands?

thanks!!!

---------- Post added at 07:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:30 AM ----------

Ok... xxboarderxx meant the firmware by saying rom... right?

What if I do it this way?

1) fastboot to install TWRP

2) once TWRP recognizes the external SD I can flash the firmware

3) let it boot

4) install CM10.1

Am I missing something in my idea?
[Transformer TF300T General] xxboarderxx:
Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

You need to flash the stock rom via fastboot. That is the correct way to avoid issues. The fastboot commands are easily Googled. Remember when you fastboot stock rom, the custom recovery is gone so you have to install that again.
[Transformer TF300T General] SergioCR:
Thanks very much for the assit...

But I keep having trouble with this :S

Tried with this adb commans

adb and fastboot commands not always work...

basically the only way to make a command run is by adding "-i 0x0B05" after the word fastboot,

ex: fastboot

-i 0x0B05

flash recovery recovery.img

but im not sure what am I exactly doing by adding that -i 0x0B05.

regular fastboot commands do not work, it stays on "waiting for device"

adb commands do not work either, I tried by pushing the .zip file into the internal sdcard

Im guessing I do not have complete fastboot control, could it be something with the rooting method used? (This is exactly what I did to root it)

Any more ideas?

Could I be doing something wrong?
[Transformer TF300T General] SergioCR:
I was able to make it work by installing CM10 (4.1.1) again...

[Transformer TF300T General] xxboarderxx:
Re: [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobpr

What happens when you type fast boot devices? Does your PC see your tablet?

As far as I know, the only proper way to update your bootloader to JB is by flashing the stock JB rom. If you can do it a different way, then it may work but is not recommended by XDA folks.
[Transformer TF300T General] SergioCR:
When I try any fastboot command without the "-i 0x0B05" it stays on "waiting for device", if I use the "-i 0x0B05" it goes thru

but, what does "-i 0x0B05" means?

also if I try to install TWRP instead of CWM it wont boot into recovery

Im like really confused

------------------------------.............------------------------------.............------------------------------.............------------------------------.............------------------------------

guess I'll flash to the Asus ROM and try to update, hopefully that may solve all my problems
[Transformer TF300T General] xxboarderxx:
Ok look...when you install TWRP using the fastboot, you need to install the BLOB file ok? and you have to make sure it is ICS and not JB TWRP...but why are you installing TWRP??? That's not what you are supposed to do at the moment.

If you ever want to get a custom JB rom on your tablet, you need to follow this below:

Start from the beginning...it works for EVERYONE if you follow the instructions exactly and do not skip a step.

If you are following the guide and then you are stuck, then post where you are stuck but right now, you are trying a bunch of different things and nobody can help you if you don't follow the guide to get the Asus Stock JB ROM.
