[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ximion:
Hi!

(I hope this is the right forum for this question)

In short: I currently have a bricked Transformer Prime TF-201, which only lets me boot into APX mode or shows the ASUS logo.

Long version:

I tried to flash CWM Recovery to the Transformer via fastboot, which didn't work. Flashing went okay, but booting the device in recovery mode was impossible, it just loaded forever. Then I tried to flash the TWRP recovery image, which only worked with one specific image. Because I was curious why the CWM stuff did not work, I flashed it again, and then unfortunately made a huge mistake: I used the last option of the boot menu (something like Wipe all data, etc.) from Android, which basically tries to factory-reset the device, and tried to boot into recovery mode, which of course does not work.

Now, everytime I start the device, it apparently tries to automatically start the recovery mode or does something else (without showing log messages, meh...). Holding the power-button and volume-down does not have any effect anymore, which means I can no longer access fastboot to fix this.

The only thing I can reach at time is the APX mode.

I have a few questions regarding this situation, first of all:

1) Does anyone know a method to get out of this? (I haven't activated nvflash, unfortunately)

2) Is the APX mode usable for anything without the previous steps?

3) In case there's nothing more to do, has someone experience in how Asus reacts if I send the device back?

Regards,

Ximion

You have to have your device specific files to nvflash to work.

You can send it to Asus for RMA - they will replace board. You will have to pay for out about 200$. After RMA there is slight chance you won't be able to unlock again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] captsakis:
i had the same promblem,no way to do nothing without nvflash,i returned back to asus where they changed moderboard or something like that and thank God they did not charged me for anything. good luck :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Your totally wrong dimwit...!...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] cerobles1:
So I've noticed that when you take a photo with the flash "on" the phone completely shuts down. I have to pull the battery to be able to restart the phone, none of the buttons work. If I leave the flash on automatic then the phone takes the picture and sometimes the flash comes on. I'm running the people's ROM, and my wife is full stock, and we both have the same issue. Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or does any one know how to fix it??? I know if you leave the flash on automatic I would have no problems. I did search around and found nothing on this issue and the GSIII

I tried flashing CM9.1 using ROM Manager tonight on my GT-P3113 and it's now stuck on a boot loop. The blue Cyanogen creature comes onscreen with a flashing chest and the background has this electronic blue vortex look. I'm unable to do anything and holding the power button only reboots into the loop. Is there a way to fix this?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
Let me think about this. I don;t think you are bricked.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
I accept chastization [?]
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
Best thing to try is returning to stock configuration. Do you know how to use ODIN to flash the stock ROM? is this a US Wifi model ?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
It is a US WiFi model. I used ODIN to flash recovery but if there are instructions on the site, I'd take those as well.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
If you can still get into CWM, then i would recommend you try flashing this stock ROM which is 4.1.1 JB

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1861370

Which version of CWM recovery are you using? Make sure its 6.0.1.9 or higher.

If you prefer to return to stock ICS 4.0.4 you can download the odin stock firmware here

http://www.hotfile.com/dl/170457040/052efe5/P3113UEBLH2_P3113XARBLH2_XAR.zip.html

CM9 is outdated and no longer being supported.

CM10 based ROM are available on the forum, but be careful and follow instructions in the thread exactly.

It is possible to hard brick this device permanently so be careful.

DO NOT DO A FACTORY RESET OR DATA WIPE FROM STOCK RECOVERY
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
I can boot into recovery if that's what you mean. I do believe that was the version of CWM that I installed. I'll go into download mode and flash that one. I need a link to Odin though. I have no idea why I deleted it, and the links I followed were no longer valid.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
Nvm. I found an Odin download.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
for the 4.1.1 JB rom you can use CWM.

For the stock 4.0.4. ISC use ODIN

http://d-h.st/WuY
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
As you can tell, I'm a bit of a noob. So I need to boot into recovery for the 4.1.1 then? That is, Power + Volume Up?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
Power + vol up. When you see the samsung logo, release the power but continue to hold vol+up until CWM displays. Make sure you are in CWM, not the stock recovery.

If this doesn't fix the boot problem then ODIN flash the stock ICS from the link I provided.use odin 1.8.5

That would remove any corruption caused by the failed CM9 ROM flash, hopefully.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
I got into CWM and it's v6.0.2.3. Just waiting for the JB ROM to download so I can load it onto my SD card and then flash.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
Thanks for all of your help! :good:
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
That CWM is fine.,

Good luck, Let us know if you have success..... or not.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
CWM flash failed. Going to download the Stock ICS and flash using Odin. After I root again, I'll flash that JB Rom anyway.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
Here's a quick tutorial on flashing odin roms.

ignore the model and rom that doesn't match yours

1. download samsung kies to get the correct driver for gt-p3113

2. download odin3 v.1.85

3. download Stock Firmware

4. install Kies

5. extract Odin3-v1.85.zip

6. extract P3113xxxxxxx.zip until you get file P3113xxxxxxxxxxx1_HOME.tar.md5

7. turn off your tablet

8. enter download mode (press volume up button + power button about 5 seconds)

9. plug the usb cable to your pc and your tablet

10. run Odin3 v1.85.exe

11. check if pc recognize your tablet by seeing ID:COM turn yellow and "Added!!" message in the message box lower left odin window.

12. klik PDA button and put P3113xxxxxxx.tar.md5

13. make sure to uncheck re-partition

14. click start

15. odin processing takes about 5 minutes, wait patiently.

16. if there's a "SUCCEED" in the message box, your tablet will restart

17. wait about 10 minutes, you should get your ICS boot
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
Flashed stock ICS and.....it works!

Thanks a lot man. That's the first and last time I try to flash from RM. Gonna flash that stripped down JB ROM now though.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingMotion:
I now have JB 4.1.1 and am veery happy. You're a lifesaver.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DigitalMD:
You are very welcome. Happy Holidays.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcjw:
My wife is having one small issue with her new Nexus 4 - not rooted yet - and I'm curious if anyone here has experienced this. In her Settings, the "Automatic Date and Time" selection wants to keep un-selecting which forces her to go back in and re-select it. She's noticed this maybe 3-4 times in the week she's had her new phone. I did a cursory search of this forum (and the General forum) and the Google support page but came up empty. Has anyone else seen this or maybe even be able to provide a solution?

Hi Guys,

I thought to bring a poll for best ICS or JB based rom, with user opinion.:cowboy:

[ROM] DjangoManouche X 1.1 - 2 KingOfBirds Kernels rebuilded on 30a sources

what is battery life comparted to cm7?

on both ics or cm10? i want ics but need to know if battery is not worse then on cm7, (beacause its already ****)
[LG Optimus 2x] chris_drums:
django manouche x1.1 the best!
[LG Optimus 2x] heroics_fantasy:
Django X1.1 for me.

Very smooth, don't know if it's the best for battery but if the battery is ok for 1 day, it's good enough for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] AvRS:
Best ROM threads, with a poll or not are not allowed. There is no such thing as a best ROM as it's very subjective and normally just ends in drama with lots of people disagreeing.

Please no more of these threads.

Thanks

[Motorola Droid RAZR] swtkimmie:
I tried to install the update to 4.1, but wasn't on .211. I was on 215, so the update failed. I backed up and tried to restore to the very beginning of my backups, that failed and then I rebooted my phone. After that the phone will not turn on. I get the moto dual core screen, then it goes black. I can hold in all 3 buttons and bring up the ap fastboot...I've tried using RSD and razr utility, but the computer isn't recognizing my phone, it doesn't show up in RSD. In ap fastboot it says battery ok (after I've charged it), connect usb, data cable. Before I thought it said it was connected. Please help me!!??!?

I've always been pretty good at figuring out what I'm doing when it comes to rooting and flashing ROMS...guess I got too cocky...lol.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 85gallon:
It is hard to tell if it is showing up in RSD Lite. It doesn't show under "Device Properties"

It will show in the first column of the chart below under "Model" on the first line. Most of what it says there is hidden because he column is so narrow. Bbut if you widen the column it will say "blah, blah, blah, spyder"
[Motorola Droid RAZR] swtkimmie:
I restarted my computer and it registered again, only for my phone battery to be low. I'm hoping it's charging, I have no way to tell.

In RSD there was nothing in any of the columns showing up. After restarting the computer it did show up. It just wouldn't do anything with my battery so low. I'm going to let the phone charge all night and try again tomorrow morning. Thank you for the help. Hopefully I'll be on here saying that it worked instead of asking for more help!

(How did I not think to restart my computer? Lol)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] swtkimmie:
Ok, another problem. My phone was plugged in all night and didn't charge. How am I supposed to charge it? Am I screwed?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] osval.:
It isn't bricked 'till it's bricked ;)

Since you ran out of battery wou will need a factory cable to flash it back to .211, you could buy one on ebay or make it yourself with a disposable micro usb cable.

reading this thread could help you http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1403100

Yea, that's what I was afraid of. My hubby tried to make me one, but instead of soldering, he tried to just connect the wires. That didn't work. Looks like I'm going to be forking out the money for a cable that I will (hopefully) only use once. Ugh! I feel so stupid right about now...lol. Thank you for all your help!!

If your rooted, you can delete Touch Wiz (or any other unwanted bloatware) with apps like NoBloat (free from Play).

If your not rooted, you could always just download an alternative launcher and leave Touch Wiz dormant.

As you can see in my signature, I'm using 'Apex' launcher. Its miles better than TW and will give you that generic Google look that your going for.

I have a small business and bought the note 2 for the s-pen popup note and the larger screen. I want the seemless ability to answer a call... take down a customers info as easy as possible at any given time. I found a sweet app that helps me with one step its called speakerphoneEX in the play store. I set it to go to speaker phone when I pull the phone from my head. So with popup note enabled I can receive a call and when it is time to take down cusromer info I pull the phone from my head which puts it on speakerphone without having to push the button... then pull spen and popup note is there. When done I reinsert spen it saves note and put phone back to my ear and it goes back to earpiece. Brilliant! Now if I could have it launch a custom note app sheet instead of snote popup note when removing spen....

I will use it until it dies or I manage to break it. Not interested in LTE as I am more than satisfied with hspa+ speeds for my needs and I will be transitioning to t-mobile's 30 dollar plan in a couple of months when my AT&T contract ends.
