Samsung needs to stop trying to re-invent the wheel. They are are adding too much crap to the phones in the form of Samsung made social media crap, media players and other proprietary software.

If they don't add clean simple features then people will lose interest. When I bought my S3 I was fumbling around trying to find out how most of the new features worked, only to find it cumbersome and counter-intuitive. What good are features if you never use them?

When I set up my hot spot for a PS3 it works fine, connects without problems.

When I connect on my computer it will take a while to connect and then it will fail, asking me to troubleshoot additional problems.

Does anybody know how I can fix this? it's getting annoying, sometimes turning it off and on until it connects works but it takes a while and I'd prefer to fix the problem

Thanks guys

Based on the information you have provided, there is only one answer possible:

delete the DOS 6.22 partition on your x386 PC, buy new laptop with something more modern, like Ubuntu, Windows or MacOS and try again.

I clearly see that the root reason of your problem is lack of wifi card drivers for DOS...:rolleyes:

And all of the XDA hired fortune tellers are agreeing with me.:rolleyes:

Hi All,

Long time lurker and I appreciate all the work everyone does here. It makes owning an android device a great amount of fun...but as you can see by the title of the thread, a great amount of stress as well :laugh:

My device is unlocked and I've used CWM and recenlty noticed that along one of my flashes TWRP 2.4 installed over CWM. All is well because I was meaning to switch over and try this recovery out. Smooth, fast, I like. But I recently installed CM 10.1 using the october version with the JB bootloader because I did not have it. Everything was nice, but I wanted to update CM 10.1 to a more recent UNOFFICIAL build so I flased the 3/20 version on my device. Everything was smooth but the WiFi dropped all the time so I decided to wait out a more stable "official" version of CM 10.1. Take note that I have(had) TWRP 2.4. Now I wanted to stick with JB 4.2.X so I decided to flash Energy's 3/21 build but this hung up on the ASUS screen... So I decided to reflash the rom but first installing the JB bootloader and partitions zip. Still no luck and while exiting TWRP, I noticed that it stated that my device isn't rooted and would I like to root? So I swiped and did it but it seems that the JB bootloader and partitions zip file erased everything on my device, Roms, GAPPS, SU, backups...gone.

The next thing I did was execute Urkels fresh root and fresh start and that seemed to go through all the steps with no issue. When I went back into recovery I noticed that I now have TWRP 2.2.2.1 with a JB bootloader... so what ever I did downgraded TWRP? Ok... Now I wanted to play it safe and stick to the October version of CM 10.1 with the JB bootloader but while flashing the rom (ext SDCARD) i receive an error. I decided to re-execute Urkels fresh root and fresh start and now all my device does is boot into TWRP 2.2.2.1. I can't use fastboot even with holding the power button and vol down.

At this point I feel lost and defeated, I can't use external SD anymore and I can only mount the system. So I decided to see if ADB works. ADB works great in recovery and am able to send files to the device. I sent a ROM to see if I can install but it fails because it can't mount the cache and this is where I am now. Lost... confused and desperate for help :crying: I'll make sure XDA gets a nice donation if anyone can help me out!

What works -

boot to TWRP 2.2.2.1 (thats all)

ADB in recovery

What doesn't-

No rom installed

No backup

No fastboot

My troubleshooting

Again ANY help is appreciated!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
Would I be able to update TWRP within TWRP using a 2.4.4.0 zip file?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
This is happening because you are now on 4.2.1 bootloader with an old TWRP which is not compatible with the new bootloader.

When you say you cannot access fast boot do you mean the usb icon is missing? If you do that is part of the new bootloader. As soon as you get to where the icons are you are automatically in fast boot unless you select one of the icons.

I'm out at the moment but if you reply letting me know that you can get to the icons I will post a file when I get back and some instructions to downgrade you to old bootloader and compatible TWRP.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
I figured my TWRP version might have been the culprit...

When I restart and hold the vol down button it normally would activate fastboot, now it goes directly to TWRP, no icons whatso ever. Before I would get the recovery icon, a usb (I think) and an option to wipe data. I can't get to that screen anymore. Is there a command in adb that will allow me to restart to fastboot from recovery? I myself am at work too so I will test anything I can in 3 - 4 hours. Thanks for taking the time to respond! :good:

So basically I won't be able to put TWRP 2.4.4.0 within my current version of TWRP?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
The version of TWRP you have will not mount the partitions you need to flash anything. You either need to downgrade the bootloader so that version of TWRP will work or get the version of TWRP back on there that was edited to work with the new 4.2.1 bootloader.

When you installed that partition.zip from energy rom it installed the new bootloader and the compatible twrp the same time. To go back he also has a zip that will restore old bootloader and old twrp. This is what you should have done.

What I am worried about now is the fact that you cannot even get to fastboot from the buttons.

Try adb reboot bootloader.

If that lets you in then download this .. http://flumpster.lolcakes.com/android/blob and place it in your fastboot directory.

Now type.

fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob

wait for it to fully flash and then type

fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot

Give it about 20 seconds, if it doesn't restart then you will have to hold the power button down for 10 seconds to force a restart.

When it restarts it should now start to fill the blue line on the Asus screen which will flash the old bootloader and compatible TWRP. If it does this then great, just wait until it has finished and it should put you back into twrp where you will be able to install a rom off your external SD.

If it does not do the blue line then we have bigger probs and I hope you have nvflash backup files.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
Crossing my fingers... I will try what you mentioned and no, I don't have NVFLASH. Something that I have been meaning to do for a few weeks now too. Thanks for the help I will update when I get a chance to try.

Mikw
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You cannot do the nvflash process now. You could only do it while on ICS and there is no way back to ICS without having nvflash backups.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
I am able to adb reboot bootloader, and it brings me to fastboot!

I successfully executed the steps you gave me but I didn't get the android screen with the blue line... it went back to TWRP 2.2.2.1. Can I fastboot the new version of TWRP?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
Tried one more time with no success... Please let me know if I have any other options since I can get to fastboot via ADB.

I think the reason I am running into this mess is because I didn't download the JB update from ASUS and move the system.blob file according to Urkel fresh start
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
I have even tried installing the TWRP.blob (newest JB version) file using this method but still reverts to version 2.2.2.1. I'm stumped :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I was worried about this. I have seen loads of people with the same problem you have over on the tf300 forums.

They can access fastboot thru adb reboot fastboot and it appears to send the file over ok but then it doesn't work.

When you mentioned you couldn't get to fastboot by holding button combo it looked like the same prob as them.

Have a look at this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2179874
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
So I probably need to send it to ASUS or wait for a solution? That is for the TF300 would I be able to use any steps for that device with mine?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
Also,

I purchased this in January 2012 from best buy, any possibility I can go through them to have this issue fixed?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Loco0729:
Flash the .img not the blob that should fix your issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I doubt it will but he can try.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
No luck flashing the .img file instead. This is the worst:(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheYoz:
Flumpster thanks a bunch for all of your help. I ended up sending in the tablet, as expected they had to replace the motherboard.:

They quoted me this origionally:

Parts: $165

Labor: $65

Shipping $10

TOTAL $240!!!

I called and complained until my eyes popped out of my head and they ended up replacing the motherboad and shipped it back to me for $150. Now I think I'm going to sell this thing with the dock and buy a Nexus 10. Again, thanks for your help.

Another note... It will probably be a pain to unlock and root this thing again after the RMA im assuming. No more ASUS.

Hi Andy,

I would be guessing there may be one of two possible problems;

either the installer itself is corrupt

or there is a corruption being introduced during download - e.g. firewall etc?

I would back the corrupt installer creation as the problem, most oikely scenario. I created the .nb1 and it was fine, but not the other way around.

Not having actually set up the unix system yet to do this for myself [utterly lazy I'm afraid ;) ] not sure how to resolve, but hope this may be helpful

How much space did you leave in the rom? For some reason the 3.17 is very funny about writing, but I have found if you run the same rom again and take a program or two out it will usually work. I haven't found this to be a problem in the 4.0 roms.
