Thank you!

I removed the link. The exact same thing happened to me, but with WiFi Mouse (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wsm.wifimousefree&hl=en).

The server installer installed loads of malware and I spent about 2 hours to delete everything.

Thanks again for the warning!

No problem man, i try and look out for people :P Just an FYI if you use the link below the big green button for the direct download, it downloads only the zip and nothing else.

I have access to recovery on my TF300T, I also have access to fastboot.

I can switch between Clockword and TWRP recoveries at any time.

I can not get a rom to load on my tabet. the recovery does not recognize external SD cards so I can not put a rom on that.

When I use fastboot to flash the default ASUS rom from their support website it does not boot it?

How could I have possibly bricked my device when I have access to both recovery and fastboot ?

Not sure I completely get what ur say in,but have u tried to put the ROM on ur internal storage and flash?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comzee:
The recovery does not give me the option to mount my internal storage to my PC so I can put roms on it, is there any other way to get roms on the internal storage?

Btw I am running the latest version of TWRP openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-tf300t-JB.blob
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolving:
Download the ROM on your tablet then boot into recovery go to downloads and it should b there.unless I'm just not getting what you are saying

Restore the backup to the ROM you were using before. As far as why the ROM won't boot, gatta talk to the dev.

He was trying to flash hydro 4.1 while already being on jb.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comzee:
The problem is I can ONLY boot into recovery or fastboot. I can not get a ROM to load on my device.

I little back story. When I originally bought the tablet I immediately upgraded it to JB 4.1 stock rom. After that upgrade was done I downloaded and installed ASUS official boot-loader unlock-er. I then installed TWRP recovery and it was like that stable for months. Just recently (yesterday) I tried to install HYDRO rom and it would not load that rom. I tried using the TWRP backup I created but that did not work either. So I still have full access to both recovery and fastboot, I just can't get any ROM ZIP files into the flash of the device to install with TWRP. When I use FASTBOOT to install the stock ASUS rom it will not boot either.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolving:
OK I was like has he never flashed a ROM before I gotcha..

is it possible to use ADB PUSH to put a rom on my internal storage ?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
adb push blob /sdcard/

adb shell

su

dd if=/sdcard/blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

adb reboot

I would consider using the proper stock blob here ( jb for jb bootloader or ics for ics bootloader ). It can be had by unzipping a stock update.

If su fails try without.

mmcblk0p4 is staging and used by asus to update, etc.

1 /system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (null)

2 /cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (null)

3 /misc emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 (null)

4 /staging ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p4 (null)

5 /data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 (null)

6 /external_sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /dev/block/mmcblk1

I:Internal path defined: '/data/media'

I:External path defined: '/external_sdcard'
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comzee:
Do I type this in verbatim?

I have the blob file from the asus update zip. What is the blob file for / what is it?

NO idea what any of that means.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
The yes you can type exactly. This assumes the file to push is located in the directory with adb.

The blob file is everything required to put your unit back to stock ( all required partitions ). (you will loose root and your custom recovery).

You could just use the adb push to place a flashable zip on your internal sdcard and flash with twrp or cwm.

The remainder of the info would be if you needed the partition designations and mounts so you would be able custom formulate what you wished to do. You can just forget it exists.

You could just

adb push yourfilename /sdcard/

and then flash with your recovery!

this could be a stock flashable rom or one of the custom roms (remember the bootloader must match ICS or JB of what you have installed in your unit).

Sorry I confused you!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comzee:
yea that worked, I also got help from this LINK

on a side note, now that I have ASUS stock rom "US_epaduser_10_4_2_13_UpdateLauncher.zip" and TWRP 2.3.1.0 (newest).

is it possible to http://get.cm/?device=tf300t install those without any hitches, Like if I download the rom located at that link put it on my sd card and use TWRP to flash it, with what I currently am running will that work?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
I'm glad you are working again.

I showed adb instead of fastboot because that was your request.

In theory yes CM10 nightlies should be ok OP shows JB ( everything has issues sometimes ). Nightlies for yesterday may work great and be totally broken today that is the nature of nightlies. No stable release for CM10 on tf300 shown. I have not used that rom. I have seen posts saying it is not for jb bootloader and others saying it is.

I would read some of the posts asking for help and try to make a decision from there.

I believe I looked at the source a short time back and saw it was based on 2.6 kernel. I decided from there to go another route. Don't quote that as I could be mistaken. Maybe I should look again, sometime.

Good Luck!

I'm not into over clocking. I would look at clean rom and hydro jb. I have used both and they are good daily drivers. No fluff, they just work!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikaole:
search for the tool adb pusher here on xda. Then go to recovery. Now open adb pusher and you can send the file you like to your internal space.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
Thanks!

OP has moved beyond the posted issue and is trying to decide on a non stock rom.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] theyangman:
So I have finally figured out how to extract contacts from an SBU file, convert it to vCard and then import them into my phone.

Here is the wonky part.

When I click on the contacts button, it only shows my phone having 12 contacts in my phone. BUT when I click over to "Groups" under "My Contacts, there are all my contacts that I have recently restored.

Now I have tried playing around with Wondershare, and a few other programs, but I want all my contacts in one place. Not having to swtich tabs to make this work. How can I copy them from "My Contacts" to the phone itself so I can see them all easily? I am so close to having all my contacts restored, this is the final step!

Please help!!! Thanks in advance!~
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dafoxs:
Curious, do you use titanium back up?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] theyangman:
No, but I will once I can solidify all my contacts into one area.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dafoxs:
There is a real fast safe way to restore contacts through it. I have nandroid backups for every rom. I use tbu and go into extract from nandroid, choose the rom, check the "contact storage" box, choose data only and restore it, reboot and they are all there, full size pictures and all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] theyangman:
I simply connected via Kies air and edited them all manually. Slow day at work so at least I got something done. Lol

[Droid X General] stonedonkey:
So I've seen this problem in several posts and on various forums, but I've yet to find a solution.

Basically the camera button works fine on the device, but when I'm in Clockwork Recovery, the camera button does not register a click. I've also scrolled through the list until the "Back Button Enabled" message appears, it also does not work.

The power, Menu, and Home buttons toggle the screen on and off.

The Back, Search, Camera buttons do nothing.

I was on .621, ended up SBFing and rerooting using the Linux bootdisk method.

I have root, and can get Rom Manger to reboot and make a backup, but it fails on updating the rom, so that doesn't work either?

Any suggestions on what I'm missing or doing wrong?

Hey! has anyone found a bumper case that will fit an extended battery cover?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
Long story short ive been with verizon for a year and change. This is the thrid time ive been charged for a phone ive shipped back to verizon. Somehow they cant find it in their wharehouse even though fedex says it was delievered. I spoke to upper mangement and they gave me a free gs3 for the troubles "lost my unlimited data" as part of the deal. I was assured i wouldnt see a charge this month and boom, there it was today. Now they reversed the device charge but im stuck with the extra $35 government surcharge. Im kinda ticked and am thinking about canceling my contrct and going to tmobile as they are cheaper and have unlimited data again. Anybody else experienced these type of problems on verizon?

Sorta seeking advice. Im fearful of ever shipping another defective device back. With sprint i could take it in locally and they would fix it or swap it out on spot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blestsol:
I'm sorry to hear this. I've shipped like 20 things to Verizon literally and it's made it but I was considering tmobile too. Grab a gsm phone and rock it. But it really depends on your coverage.. Tmobile can suck like hell in some areas. They let you buy phones by adding payments to your bill every month and they work with you if you need an extension on your bill.

Verizon charged me for a whole year for a line I wasn't using because I had it suspended and not unbilled suspension. I had no clue there was two different things. And I even told the rep I had no phone for the line so please suspend it. I only found out it was on when a rep called me saying they were hitting the switch because I had another line under my social that was unpaid.

In short.. Give them a go.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
Yeah i mean i love verizons coverage but this being fearful to ship phones back when i pay for warrenty is crazy. Tmobile has good coverage here. Gonna call up verizon tomorrow and see what can be done. If nothing ill check out other carriers in a few weeks. Im just frustrated today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mailingtechnology:
The tax usually comes off on the next bill cycle. You don't see it right away when they refund the charge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
I know this but the point is i shouldnt see any charge for their screwup. Iet alone 3x already. I feel as im being punsihed for something that is beyond my control. Thats why im upset.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x-y-no:
Well I moved to Verizon from T-Mobile because their coverage is godawful pretty much everywhere I ever spend any time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
Yea i left sprint after 5 years becuse of horrible service. So i wouldnt go back there. At&t is not worth it so im left with tmobile. I know they have good coverage here and a good lineup of phones. The unlimited data may be a plus too. Ive wanted to go gsm for some time now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] luis86dr:
This. Yes, Tmobile without a doubt is much more affordable... But they do not come in comparison to Verizons service. Verizon honestly has the best coverage, but their customer service is lacking heavily compared to other carriers. Of course this is just from my personal experience...;)

Samsung Galaxy S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eman3316@optonline.net:
I think customer service is lacking at all companies today. The lack of knowledge from reps throughout different companies and industries is just mind blowing. Seems like no one gets trained on the products they sell anymore. They just make stuff up and unless you educate yourself you would never know that you are being lied to most of the time from these people.

Don't know if it has to do with lots of turnover, lack of training, or companies just not caring but it really is sad when a sales guy or service guy does not know their product and the average consumer doesn't know enough to challenge what they are told.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] luis86dr:
Very true. I don't think any training is needed when you read your responses to your customers off a computer. Most of them give very generic responses. It's funny actually.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheGeXX:
Verizon is amazing with business customers. Above and beyond anything I dealt with when I had a tmobile business account, and Verizon does have the best coverage and the fastest speeds. What is the point of unlimited data when it doesn't work when you need it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
You are the only one that posts your location. I'm in Houston and you have to be within the Samsung radio range of the towers throughout Texas. During hurricane on Tmobile if it works at your house normally 3 miles from freeway you have to go to freeway or tower to get service. If we travel in Texas my son who is on Tmobile has to use my phone. If you are more than 3 miles from any major freeway in a metro area in Texas under good weather conditions you can hang up any signal. Tmobile only rents the towers that are on the freeway in Metro areas and about every 10 miles in between. Verizon either buys or rents every tower in the state. That is the difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
after comparing prices im certain we will give tmobile a try next month. probably get myself the note 2 and my wife a galaxy s 3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
I think they do. They have signs every were around my area to "test drive" there service. I'm thinking about switching because my wife is jealous of NY s3 and wants one now and I'm not gonna pay Verizon's crazy prices for there new share everything plan....and loss my unlimited data!

I have a sweet deal on Verizon, 3 lines unlimited with 1400 minutes, plus insurance on the 3 lines, with wife's discount, we pay $165 a month. I have never had anything but great customer service, sometimes you need to call a few times to find the right rep! I would never leave Verizon, coverage cannot be beat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mustang302LX:
I thought about TMobile but when my wife and I went into a local store they told me $150 down per line (to go towards the phone cost apparently) which gets refunded with a rebate then they wanted $20 per month for 20 months (so $400 per phone). I laughed in their face and said I'll stick with VzW where I can pay $200 for a phone and have better coverage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
You'll be sorry if you go with T-Mobile. Good luck going on any sort of vacation. Biggest regret of the carriers I've had is T-Mobile. I paid the $200 ETF and ran. Which ended up being $285 after all thee BS fees. $23 government related usage fee? Never had to pay that until I terminated. They rip you off, on top of their crap service.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
well as ive said sprint & at&t are not an option. so unless i go prepaid what else can you do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mybook4:
What phone do you have? Do you have the verizon GS3? If so, why not just get a TMobile sim, a prepaid card and give them a shot for a month. You'll only get edge data, but if the phone/sms/edge service works well for you, then switch. If it doesn't, then at least you'll know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
of course i have a verizon gs3. i already checked out coverage from tmobile in my state and it's pretty good. probably nowhere near verizon though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cell128:
Go to metro Pcs. Get grandfathered under their cheap plans. Wait for them to be swallowed up by T-Mobile next year>>>>better service>>>profit
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mybook4:
I believe TMobile is buying metro for their AWS (to boost LTE potential in the future). I like the grandfathered part (if they do it), but I believe metro is cdma (sprint) right now. I can't see that being an easy transition to GSM (although the vzw gs3 being both cdma and gsm might make the transition easier).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mystikalrush:
Only reason I wouldn't is HSPA+ (fake 4g) and they wont even start installing LTE until next year, so that whole project could take many years for you to get service.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
Honestly I'd stay with Verizon. T-Mobile will give you the same run around that Verizon does. I've had all 4 major carriers. They're all the same, but at least with Verizon the coverage is good..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Longcat14:
Well, T-Mobile has 42mbps HSPA+ (technically, LTE is fake 4G too, just a LOT faster, only LTE advanced, and some other techs are true 4G), and most people don't have problems getting 15-25 down, and 3-4 up if your in a city with good AWS spectrum.

But your right, LTE on AT&T and VZW is MUCH faster then HSPA+ on T-Mobile, and the pings are lower. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bits8mybytes:
Sorry to hear your troubles. I also lost my unlimited data when I got this phone. Verizon is like a really attractive girl; very expensive, doesn't really give a **** but at the end of the day is better than the rest.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blue6IX:
...and how. Verizon 4g makes my old t-mo 4g feel like dialup wireless...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] leyvatron:
T-Mobile is really really slow in my area. I never saw 5mbps with their fake 4g. Verizon is very fast and seen about 30mbps but also more expensive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] agolfingcigar:
I constantly battle with keeping VZW because of their ****ty business practices and love of messing with android, IE bootloaders and such... I've never forgave them for the V710 incident. However, T-Mo is god awful here, and everywhere I've ever seen it...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mybook4:
I walked into a verizon store today (i had 15 minutes to kill before meeting with a friend). I explained to a rep that I'm on Verizon, have unlimited data, pay $72.50 a month, use about 9GB of data in an average month, and would like to know how my bill would change if I upgraded (i almost laughed while saying it). The look on his face was priceless (and red) when he had to say $140. I know, I know, I'm mean for doing it.

I've definitely considered TMobile. I'll most likely be moving to them after my vzw contract ends and I want a new phone. I'm not paying full retail price for a phone without getting a lower monthly price for service. TMobile value plans are decent. Plus they get decent hspa in my area.

I find that many verizon customers (myself included) have, in the past, automatically assumed that the other carriers have unbearable coverage. It becomes a crippling fear of switching. I have many friends on TMobile and only one has issues. The TMobile coverage map (if you can believe it) shows his area as having poor coverage.

As far as the speeds go, yes, hspa is slower than LTE, but seriously ask yourself whether or not you will really notice the difference between 40Mb and 5Mb. Unless you are streaming 1080p YouTube video or downloading torrents, you probably won't notice.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ummduh:
What i did was went into the tmobile store and ran some speed tests at a few different times of day.. found theyre nearly as slow as sprint in my area. Even while showing a "4g" connection, was only peaking around 700Kb/s...

I ended up switching from sprint to vzw. Yea theyre more expensive but it seems the extra money is well worth it for my wife and i..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mybook4:
Damn 700Kbps (bit not byte). That's terrible. In my area, speed tests constantly were between 5 and 7 Mbps. It's much faster for my buddy in Philly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blue6IX:
i'm back in philly now - don't believe the hype. Ditching t-mo was the best mobile decision i've made in my life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Lavundra21:
don't do it!!!

I just left T-Mobile because their billing sucks... I'm in the military and while I was deployed I got charged 500 bucks for a phone I couldn't even use. I even to them to suspend the phone while I deployed and of course they didn't.. tried to get my money back and they denied me. I was with them since 2003 until 3 weeks ago. Verizon is so much better. trust me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
Well i dont get more than 2 bars and about 5-7 down at my house with verizon anyways. I checked out the tmobile coverage here and its great. Plus it will be cheaper for us and ill get unlimited data back. Ive wanted to go gsm for awhile. My plan is to get a note2 and a gs3 for my wife. Ill sell her razr for $250 and my gs3 for about $375 and that will pay for the new phones under contract price. For the verizon efts im going to buy a couple cheap dumbphones, activate them, then cancel so its cheaper. I may do this in a few weeks. Not sure yet.
