Hi Folks,

I have tried everything...... But I can't get my BRICKED device back to life! Pleae help, the person who will FIX this wil be donated $20,- for his help, because i've tried everything that I know.

The problem is:

I have a TF101 and it's BRICKED

It has ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.3 installed, TWRP is also recognized at last time I was live and kickin in ROM MANAGER, but YES I was stupid and flashed ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.3. Now I can't get /sdcard/ mounted. ADB drivers can not be installed even in APX modus windows 8,7, and XP are all saying UNKNOWN DEVICE.

When I try to format /system the log says:

Formating /system ...

Done.

Inodes per group: 8192

Inode size: 256

Journal blocks: 2048

LabeL:

Blocks: 131072

Block groups: 4

Reserved block gorup size: 31

Created filesystem with 11/32768 inodes and 4206/131072 blocks

Done.

I:Can't format unknown volume: /sdcard

I:Can't format unknown volume: /external_sd

I:Can't format unknown volume: /emmc

I can't push a rom to anywhere with ADB

Please help me!!!! You'll really earn $ 20,- when I get my device fixed with TWRP running and a good ROM.

I can pay through PAYPAL, normal IBAN account or by donate button if you have one. I wil pay when the system is running again!

I hope someone can help!

Hello Scotty,

I have an B60, so my version should be an SBK-1

Thanks for your reaction on my post!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
I also can't push files ADB won't recognize my device.

I think the partion or something is also damaged.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
APX should always work, unless there is a hardware defect.

Try these drivers. Try if possible with XP.

Then use easyflasher to install recovery or stock rom again.

Remember:

APX mode is just a black screen, but your PC will install drivers and see the device when you enter that mode

Hold Volume up & Power until the USB connect sound appears, now you are in APX mode - there will be nothing on the screen of the transformer until you are flashing a new ROM maybe

AND NEVER USE Rom Manager again on TF101!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
I know the APX modes. So that's one thing i am aware of. The strange thing is that wether i start up in the CWM revoverymodus, or APX, or try to COLD BOOT (hangs) or normal startup. In al was windows 7,8 and XP are telling me UNKNOWN DEVICE.

When I manually try to update drivers, the system won't except the drivers because the shouldn't be compatible?!?!?!?!?

So the naked drivers haven't worked!

If could only get in a working APX mode.... I could manage it from there, but that;s the major issue.

Is it possible that UBUNTU should recognize the tablet?? I could even install DOS or LINUX on a spare machine..... But then I won't have an USB support.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
If you see unknown device in device manager, just point to the driver by hand.

Use XP.

A time ago I used Ubuntu ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso.

Driver was included because I could use nvflash in it. I made a backup with nvflash in Ubuntu. Don't know about later versions of ubuntu.

But first give a try in XP because then you can use easyflasher.

edit: I see you already did by hand.

Which driver you are pointing to ?

I have a nvflash.zip with driver included (usbpcdriver directory). You can also point to universal naked driver.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Have a read through this thread, if your tablet supports NVFlash it should work so long as there are no hardware issues

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2270850
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
I did try to point them by hand, but it's not working.....

I'm using XP on a machine where the tablet was never been used on. So conflicts are also terminated by that.

I did lose my tablet's battery when I was formatting the /data partition. Could that also be the problem? (Dummy

:D)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
This is DUTCH, but the fault is displayed in english.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
Not for APX. APX should always work because it is in the hardware.

Did you use a usb 2.0 port on XP ?

Which drivers you are pointing to ?

(where are they are coming from)

You can give Ubuntu a try. You can use the live cd. Installing is not necessary.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
Thanks *DETECTION* I'll will read that thread also.

[MENTION=4338778]gls9[/MENTION]:I'm pointing to the naked driver as you said to me, it won't work!

DO you know a alternative way???
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
What message you are getting ?

Point to the main directory of the drivers, not to the i386 directory (just to be sure:)).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
I am pointing in the directory and i am getting the message:

Can not find newer drivers for hardware

Strange.... because there aren't any drivers.... UNKNOWN DEVICE is "installed" without any drivers!

PS I am know on UBUNTU LIVE DVD, but over there I can't find the device list, but only a view with DISPLAY, MOUSE etc.

IS there an one click flasher for UBUNTU for SBK-machines????
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
First try this on Ubuntu

Then you know apx and nvflash will work.

After this you can try nvflash from here

You have to flash the SOS partition (=recovery). Get it from the easy flasher zip. It is also there.

I don't know if there is a one click flasher for linux. Maybe you can use this

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 PM ----------

Is unknown device gone when disconnect TF101 ?

(to make sure you looking at the right one)

Edit: did you also installed Asus Sync on XP ?

If yes, deinstall and try again with driver.

If not, install Asus sync and try again.

What I also did ( in XP):

- disconnect TF

- start TF in APX mode

- connect cable

(don't know if it is relevant but you can try)

With NVFLASH you must be sure what you are doing. I never restored with it.

I prefer the easyflasher method.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
Hi GLS9,

Yes when I turn of the device, unknown device disapears!

I also did the connecting in your way.

I have also tried installing asus sync.... Also no succes!

I'm trying to connect within Ubuntu, but i can not instal pakages on the normal way as they are descriped in multiple threads.

Tomorrow or Monday i'll Will install Ubuntu in stead of running it from dvd. I will try further! For now i Will have to run! Thanks for your support till now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastherser:
Erik to fix unknown device, you have to uninstall it in device manager, then with tab reconnected and on, Windows will try to install the drivers automatically DO NOT ALLOW IT, cancel installation , then head back to device manager and manually install the naked drivers.

Steps

1. Tab is connected and displays unknown device

2. Uninstall unknown device from device manager

3. A reboot of the pc and turn the tablet off and then back on.

4. After reboot reconnect tablet, Windows will try to automatically install drivers " stop immediately " do not allow installation.

5. Go back to device manager and manually install naked driver.

It would be better to do this on Windows 7 if you have it, Windows 8 has driver enforcement which can be extra work to disable.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
In device manager, try going to VIEW > SHOW HIDDEN DEVICES

That might solve your disappearing issue

But to force a driver install, instead of telling the update driver window to look in a folder, tell it you have the file on your PC and direct it exactly to that driver

I can use the teamviewer software to either take control of or direct you on where to click (RC or Meeting) and see if I can't help you get the drivers working. I had a tablet in a similar condition that I fixed in this manner for someone.

Pm or quote me if you want, otherwise continue with trying advice in this thread. I don't have much else to add reading through other than making sure the drivers are done right.

From experience, it looks like a windows vs android issue, Use Ubuntu, ADB works flawlessly with Ubuntu, not so much with windows

And you don't need to offer money ;) People here are very happy to help regardless

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Unfortunately after hours of trial and error I think it's safe to say this is totally bricked. The device refuses to send even a vendor ID over APX or anything, even under linux through lsusb.

It's getting into recovery / apx, but all computers refuse to see it or communicate. Recovery is Twrp, but it refuses to mount the device, so it may as well not be there. I'm personally stumped, If anyone has anymore suggestions? Otherwise imo it's bricked :[

Tried universal naked, ubuntu, peri adb via recovery, the device just won't be communicated with via computer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
It couldn't be a bad cable could it ? I see you say different computers but did OP use a different cable ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
I think he said the same cable worked fine with a different transformer he has, so the cable was ruled out. Not 100% sure though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
If he has another TF then why not first try with that TF to get a working APX on the PC.

Otherwise try to find somebody nearby with a TF101 and PC with working APX. Then you can determine if you are really bricked.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
Hi Folks,

Thing o doom, has helped me out great! I do not have a Spare TF, my English is not pretty good. Definitely not at 04:00 local time in the morning! Lol ?

I want to check out another cable! With the extra help of Thing o Doom i'm 95% sure that i have messed up my partitions in combination with an cwm that doesn't interact with the device..... Its bricked!

When even Linux does not recognize the device?

Its a pitty!

If you face total bricked and non fixable, Im sure you would make a good majority of your money back by selling it in parts, they are not easy to get a hold of
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
APX is build into the chip. You cannot break it by messing up partitions or CWM.

It can be the cable. Therefore my advice to try by someone else with a TF.

But first indeed try another cable.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
This can be a possibility, as far as cable.

I think either the cable or usb connection is borked, seeing as it won't send *anything* over it. I even replicated the driver issue over windows, and same steps on same windows worked on my computer but not his, so I believe I at least narrowed it down to the TF/Cable.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweaked:
I had this exact issue.....I fought with it for like 2 months, and finally bought a cable off ebay for 10 bux. I got it and was fixed in 3 minutes.... ...I was pissed. Lol

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
I don't have a nexus 7 but is the plug (microusb?) not totally different then the plug of the TF101 ?

You can find a cable for 6 euro on marktplaats.nl.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
Your right! I saw some pictures of it, but its indeed micro usb. So that won't fit at al!

I'll buy a new one, definitly for that price :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erik Stroot:
Hi Folks,

This problem is solved!

IT was the cable. I replaced IT for a new one, and there was my APX Connection again!

So, we can learn from it, that IT is always wise to check your datacable Connection before deleting, wiping your System!
