[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbusti75:
Dear all,

I received an Asus Transformer Tf101 for Christmas, 16gb internal RAM,

OS 4.0.3 (ice cream). Can someone please guide me how to enable root and upgrade the os?

I tried to rooted with Sparkyroot but, kept getting " exploit not found". Please help!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pennycake:
Check to make sure the rooting method works with your device. Have you checked out the sticky threads here about it ? I remember that I tried three different ways of rooting (all from here) before it worked - I think it was a PC driver issue and a lack of support for one.

After that, you will need to install a custom recovery in order to flash from. I really like TWRP, and was advised to download "Goomanager" from the Play Store - from there you can go to the menu dots in the upper right and choose "Install OpenRecoveryScript" and it will install it. I also like the "Reboot2Recovery" app, although it's not as useful on a custom ROM that includes the feature, but is easier than holding down buttons just right for that first time.

After that, you can flash a ROM via that custom recovery you installed (on TWRP it is very user-friendly and very obvious what you need to do as long as you know what you need to "wipe" beforehand - all you need is to use the "Install" button and thereafter).

ROM+Kernel(optional)+GAPPS(Google proprietary apps) . You need to wipe both caches, /system and internal data. You could use Titanium Backup prior to this to backup apps and of course back up data to an external source. A Kernel is sort of an underlayer of the "OS" that works on a low level with the hardware. You can read about some of the available ones in the Development section and see why people are using them, what possible benefits they get, et cetera.

arabic support

do custom roms support foreign languages and fonts, i use to visit arabic web sites and arabic tweets, do CM10, AOSP or Teom eos support such fonts
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ralkkai:
You should be fine with foreign languages as the custom rom is generally built on what Android uses, so if you can do it on stock than you should be fine on custom.

I use a different recovery than the above post, but if you follow his steps then you should be fine. You don't NEED a custom kernel to run JB per say, but it does give you a bit more power if you want to get into overclocking etc. Also, I try to stress, once you have custom recovery and are ready to flash whatever rom you chose, wipe everything. My first and only real panic was a bootloop from not wiping everything.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazztrmpter:
Like somebody mentioned above, make sure your device is compatible with each tool. Look at your serial number on the bottom of the tablet next to the usb port. Should see B60blahblah or B70blahblah, or maybe something higher (if it's newer).

I use a nice tool put together by whitekidney called EasyFlasher. It's an all in one package where you can root, install custom recovery, and install new firmware. Check this thread. It works very well for me, and is super easy.

whitekidney says:

It's real easy to use. Put your tablet into apx mode by holding the power button and the volume up button. The screen will look like it's off but if you plug it into your Windows computer, you should hear the sound when a device is plugged it. Then it'll try to install the drivers for an apx device, or some MTP drivers, I believe. If they fail to install, download PDAnet and install it. This will correctly install your drivers. There's also another method of getting your drivers to install correctly. Here's a universal driver package that 1wayjonny put together. To clarify, only use PDAnet or the universal driver package if your drivers didn't install correctly when you plugged your transformer (which should be in apx mode) into your computer.

Now you can use EasyFlasher to install a custom recovery. I left it on the very first option, (a touch recovery, so you don't have to use your buttons to change your selection). During this process, EasyFlasher should first open up a command prompt (it might pop up behind your current programs running so you won't see it until you minimize everything except for EasyFlasher). The cmd prompt will ask you to overwrite some files on your device, just type a for "always" and let it do it's thing. It's really running NVflash which you should also get familiar with too.

After you have a custom recovery installed, flash your ROM of choice. Here's a nice JB 4.1 that I've tried out. Download that file, put it on a micro sd card, pop it in your transformer, and reboot into recovery by holding volume down and the power button. When it reboots, press volume up to enter your new custom recovery (like it should say on the screen). If you installed the same recovery that I recommended above (hopefully these are the correct steps, as I don't have my device in front of me), click on flash .zip, then click on from sd card. You should see the zip that you transferred from your computer, click on it, and it should install.

Once that's finished, reboot your transformer, let it load the new rom, either set it up or skip all the junk in the beginning. Once you're on the main home screen, remove your micro sd card and transfer the superuser zip that you can find inside the tools folder in EasyFlasher's directory (on your computer) to your sd card. Reboot into recovery, and now flash that super user zip the same way you flashed the rom.

Now you have a brand new, 4.1.2 JB rooted device!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbusti75:
Quick question, do i need to connect my asus eee transformer pad tf101 to my windows xp pc to root it? Or can i used my ibook g3. The reason i ask is because i keep getting an error about MTP error. I have search everywhere for this error and i cant find a solution.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
I am sure it can be done, but most of the tools (like EasyFlasher) use Windoze.

Even if you are getting an MTP error, it should not matter as you will be using the APX device. Just make sure you have the APX driver and update the unknown device that appears after you boot to APX mode.

OTG Cable finally came in the mail, works well! Thanks guys for the recommendation.

Was wondering what is a good keyboard. I need a mini to fit in my bag,

one probably without a Num Pad since I won't be using it as much.

I am currently looking at the

Elephant Mini Keyboard (KE006WH)

http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?item_id=042866

Does anyone know if this is a good keyboard? Sorry can't seem to find any reviews on this.

Or can someone recommend a decent mini keyboard? Mini being ~30cm. Must be wired

and my price point is $25

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venomous Viper 119:
I think the problem is with the sim & not with the phone. I think they haven't processed your request properly, for which they might want you to provide some additional proof to confirm your identity. You might wanna recontact them.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ApriliaM3:
So let me just recap on the information you have provided so far...

1. You bricked the phone yourself

2. You then reported the phone as having been stolen

3. You managed to unbrick the phone using Odin

4. You reported to your network provider that you now have the phone back

5. Now the phone still has no network signal

Sounds like you might have an issue with the Karma chip :D

But seriously, under Settings / About Phone / Baseband... what does it say there?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venomous Viper 119:
I think you did a big mistake reporting it as stolen. I ain't able to find a hint of what could open the doors to link the exact problem in the software with any rom. But by far, it seems to me that they might have disabled the phone from connecting to a network as you reported it to be stolen or it might happen to be a hardware issue. In any case, you might wanna go to the service centre.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex_is_the_1:
I'm thinking of just calling them to see if it's been blocked if so they should remove it as we have it working again. we've already bought a replacement.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adinaky:
I had that screen lift too, but no dust got in there. You can try to fix the screen lift by tightening the screws on the left side (where the lift is). It worked very well for me.

I tried tightening them when I first got it and it didn't help much. Maybe I'll try again.

Maybe it won't fix all the screen lift, but at least you'll have to take a really close look to see the lift and you'll be sure that no dust will get inside.

Tightened the screws, hopefully it will stay down this time...

Done...

Decompile your SystemUI.apk and navigate to the values folder and open up your drawables.xml and you should see something like this...

<resources>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_number_text_color">#ffffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color">#ff111111</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color_pressed">#ff257390</item>
<item type="drawable" name="ticker_background_color">#ff1d1d1d</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#ff000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_recents_background_solid">#e5000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_recents_app_thumbnail_background">#88000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_notification_row_background_color">#ff090909</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_header_bg">#ff000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_tracking_bg">#e5000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="recents_callout_line">#99ffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_legacy_color">#ffaaaaaa</item>
</resources>

Simply change these two lines...

[B]<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color">#ff111111</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color_pressed">#ff257390</item>[/B]

to...

[B]<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color">[COLOR="Red"]@drawable/status_bar_item_background_normal[/COLOR]</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color_pressed">[COLOR="Red"]@drawable/status_bar_item_background_pressed[/COLOR]</item>[/B]

...then add two .9 png images of the same name, status_bar_item_background_normal and status_bar_item_background_pressed to your drawable_hdpi folder, recompile, zipalign, push to your Phone, done. :)

Quick Tip: If you can't create a .9 from scratch just edit the first two in drawable_hdpi which in my folder is alert_bar_background_normal.9 and alert_bar_background_pressed.9, just remember not edit over the .9 borders.

2. I see allot of posts on the 4.2.1 sdcard0/0/0 issue. I have gotten the newest twrp and am told it won't do it anymore? Does it only do this when going back and fourth from 4.1 ROMs and 4.2 ROMs?

Yes there is, go to ebay and search for Samsung Galaxy Note II USB Dock Connector Charging Port Flex Cable

there are a bunch of them on ebay for $10~$20. You can get just the usb port for about $5 and solder it on the board, but it's a pain. I would suggest just order the whole board and replace it.
