[Asus Transformer TF700] BxMxK:
I'm not so sure that the problem lies in "cheap" components. I've been digging through the kernel source and the only NANDs that keep popping up are:

00491: case 0xD5: /* Hynix H27UAG8T2A, H27UBG8U5A or H27UCG8VFA */

00492: case 0xD7: /* Hynix H27UDG8VEM, H27UCG8UDM or H27UCG8V5A */

first 3 are from Hynix's Q4 2011 Databook and second 2 from the Q2 2009 Databook (couldn't find the last one) and none of them match the one seen in the teardown http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Asus-Transformer-Infinity-TF-700-Teardown/10306/1

I honestly think that ASUS is just kicking these things out the door as fast as possible and not putting enough time into actually working on or even attempting to co-develop drivers. They just slap in a reference driver that works and go. Even the JB source for TF300 has the exact same NANDs referenced.

After seeing this I started looking through the Prime forum and see the devs there had came to this conclusion months ago. It seems we've put to much faith into this company. Yes, they've set the bar a little higher in terms of hardware, but they apparently are unwilling or unable to make it work well
[Asus Transformer TF700] tf201:
As mentioned before with proper source code developers could fix a lot. We need to push for source code.

The io performance has something to do with the synching between tegra and sqlite. It's so bad or it was on tf201 that it can't possibly be all hardware as a cause.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Personally, I think you should ditch Windows and only use Linux (it's free) when fixing/modifying the KF.

Set up a Linux LiveUSB and run the SoupKit and you'll be well on your way to fixing your problem, mostly touble free.

I am trying to install some stupid jelly bean thing now but i jsut want to make my kindle go back to normal....and i put the .zip file into the kindle sdcard and then i unmount it and then i do all the clearing of data and stuff then i use the .zip it worked but then it got stuck on verifing and stuff idk if its suposed to do that..... but then i just rebooted
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jared631:
I know how it is too be bad at this, I used to be pretty bad at this too. (Like 3-4 months ago.) So it was Jellybean? One question, does your bootloader work? If so, it's FireFireFire, correct?

EDIT: You posted as I was writing I see, Well, from my expirence in installing ROMS it shouldn't be hanging on Verifying. I beilive if it is it's because of a md5 check or signature (Correct me if I'm wrong) or another reason not known too me. So here is how you'd Install a ROM, Factory Reset - Wipe Cache - Wipe Dalvik/Cache - Install - Select ROMNAME.zip - Swipe to Confirm Finish -Wipe Cache/Dalvik - Reboot Device I hope this helps you.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jared631:
Alright, Yeah that's your problem there. The KFU, for one, has NEVER given me an easy time, I'd seriously suggest Linux for this. (Ubuntu in this case) Since, Linux seems to be alot easier to use in these cases (I Just bricked my kindle Fire today, and Soupmagnet got me out of it, damn Fastboot) Wait, when you plug in your device does the KFU say "Status: Online |Boot Mode: 50##" (Forgot the name)?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pleasehelp123:
it says adb online

boot status unknow
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jared631:
Aha!

Ok, so that may be good for our case. I'm thinking since you don't have a bootloader, you can't access the OS. Let's try adding one. First, tell me where you have KFU folder in since you'll have to access the tool "adb.exe" in there (i.e C:/Documents and Setting/Owner/My Documents/Downloads/Kindle Fire Utility/tools That's mine in Windows XP). Once you do open a Command Prompt window and type in cd C:\(DIRECTORY HERE) make sure to make it cd to the tools folder. Once that's done I'll give you a command to do, too make sure you did it correctly to sum it up

Example:

Microsof Windows (c) Blah Blah Blah
All Rights Reserved

C:/Documents and Settings/Owner > cd C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/My Documents/Downloads/Kindle Fire Utility/tools
C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/My Documents/Downloads/Kindle Fire Utility/tools >

Hi Jared, I seem to be having a very similar problem. I downloaded the KFU, installed drivers, then when that was successful I did the "run" thing (without the quotation marks), then when I made it to the TWRP screen, I did the Backup, Alll the things that Senior Member posted, then I just got stuck a the TWRP. I powered the Fire off, but TWRP wouldn't let me boot, there was a padlock, I held the power button down and it forced it to power off, then I couldn't get the fast boot mode to work. Everything else I try with TWRP "Failed", cant restore, says no OS installed, the KFU is now showing offline instead of online, & now says <waiting for device> I cant see the kindle in my devices but I can hear Window OS recognizing the device and can do the safely remove hardware thing. I don't know what to do next. Oh and the TWRP says*Verifying filesystems...*Verifying partition sizes...Simulating actions...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Troubleshooting Kindle Fire problems without having access to it can be difficult at times. Not only does one have to try and figure out the root of the problem, but one also has to try and disseminate what is actually happening from what is perceived to be happening by the person who needs the help. It only adds to the confusion when that person jumps into another thread in the middle of someone else's problem.

If you have a problem, and you've searched the forums as best as you can, and you've read all the guides available, yet you still can't find an answer to your problem, start a new thread. In that thread, describe what you understand and what you don't understand about your problem, how your problem started, what steps you have taken to try and solve your problem along with any errors you received (exactly as you received them), and any additional problems that arose as a result. Be sure to include important information like everything the device does from the point when you press the power button to turn it on. Also, describe in detail, the boot logo and recovery screens, specifically their overall appearances (color is key).

Do this, and I ASSURE you, your problem can/will be solved in an efficient and timely manner.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
I assume the advantage of using the full wipe zip is how fast it works. What else is recommended to wipe before flashing a new rom. What I have been doing is flashing the wipe zip, then formatting system, cache, and data, then wiping dalvik cache. Is all that necessary? Should I also be doing a full wipe/ factory reset? Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
I believe the zip you are referring to is Bills fullwipe zip. It wipes everything needed to flash a rom except dalvik cache. So, flash the zip, wipe dalvik, flash your rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
Yes, sorry, its Th3Bill's zip, but I got it on Joker's site. So its normal for it to wipe superfast, like in a few seconds? What about formatting system, data, and cache, is that not needed either?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Nope, that's the three it wipes. And yes a few seconds is normal. Only thing you might wanna wipe is dalvik.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
But, I mean there is the full wipe/factory reset, and then under mounts u can manually format each one. What is the difference between formatting and wiping?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
For our usage, not much difference.. But technically, wiping referrs to 'deleting' everything there. Deleting makes something disappear, but doesn't make it nonexistent. It just tells the system that this space can be used for other things now. Until the the given sectors where the data resided are used to write something else, the deleted items technically still exist. Formatting, on the other hand, goes through every sector and writes over it with 'blank' data, securely making the data unrecoverable (for the most part).

How can you relate this to your phone? Well, if you are installing a new rom, wiping the data is sufficient. If you are getting rid of your phone for whatever reason, formatting is suggested.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
Ok, thank u for the clear explanation.

The Samsung's Windows Phone 8 Ativ S is said to resemble the Android Galaxy SIII.. Should the users of the HTC HD2 line up for it? Let us debate the question here if this is not the wrong place to do so.
[HD2 General] novl:
I don't think so, because WP8 is designed for the Qualcomm Snapdragons, the SIII has that Samsung in-house development ARM CPU (Samsung Exynos 4412).

Its all the matter of the same plattform, maybe the HTC One S can be a successor of the HD2 if HTC releases an WP8 successor of the HTC One.
[HD2 General] bbeelzebub:
You're only thinking of the international GS3 (i9300). The specs of the Ativ S are nearly identical to the US Galaxy S III. The only difference I can tell is the processor on the Ativ S is the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 while the US GS3 uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960. Additionally, the US GS3 has 2X as much RAM.

I don't believe RAM is an issue, but I've no clue how much of a difference that "plus" makes.

As a GS3 owner, I'd love to see ports going both ways between the two.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
Neither RAM nor ROM are an issue, the problem is going to be to hack the security and flash HSPL then magldr over that new bootloader.

I doubt WP8 will ever be ported so the best chance is to get like an Ativ S or a WP8, flash HSPL, then magldr, then an Android port, since Android is open source it is a lot easier to port than WP8, the only reason WP7 was ported to the HD2 is that the HD7 hardware/drivers were virtually identical.
