You need adb setup for when you are in twrp.

When you go unto twrp do not go into any menus and plug the prime into PC. Do you see any unknown devices in device manager or any adb device?

What windows version is it also?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] davetwin:
Im on Windows 8, in device manager I have an android device showing, when expanding that it shows Asus Transformer Prime ADB Interface. This is what I installed earlier today from the universal naked drivers but turning off wifi connecting the tab and navigating to the files on the computer.

I do not have any unknown devices showing.

If I run the command prompt from my adb folder and use the adb devices command I get the message daemon not running starting it now, then it was started successfully, then a message saying list of devices attached, but there is nothing listed just a blank line then the C:\AndroidSDK\tools> prompt
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
To be honest mate I know that windows 8 is a nightmare to get setup properly with adb drivers etc. I would advise trying this on a windows 7 machine. Borrow one or if you know your way around linux then boot off a live dvd and do it in linux.

You could also try different USB ports. If you are plugged into the front ones then try some read ones etc.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] davetwin:
Quick update, the fiance has reminded me that my old Win 7 laptop (the one I originally setup for flashing) was in the garage in one of her boxes.

Switched on, plugged in tab, adb reboot bootloader worked a dream, selected the option to boot android and HB1.51 booted back up fine, the problem twrp obviously hadnt wiped the system when I selected, although one casualty seems to be my microsd that appears to have been wiped, thank god for backups :D

I have dumped the twrp.blob from this post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40149294&postcount=8) into the root directory of the internal sd

So turned off and it loaded the problem twrp straight away, rebooted bootloader taking me to the fastboot screen (3 icons), sending recovery - OKAY, writing recovery - OKAY, finished total time: 5.144s. However tab frozen on 3 icon screen and cursor highlighting the icon stopped flashing, cant move to another icon either.

Held power button down for a while and tab booted back into the problem twrp so did the reboot bootloader again and back into android.

Into terminal emulator to run the command in the post linked above;

this returned 15932+1 records in, 15932+1 records out, 8157288 byes transferred in 4.566 secs (17586528 byes/sec)

exited terminal emulator, held power button for a couple of seconds, then hit reboot (not reboot into recovery)

pad reboots back into the problem twrp (v2.4.1.0 according to number in top left corner in settings menu) and thats where im at now

Sorry for the long post just wanted to be thorough about what I have tried
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
When you go into the bootloader what is the long number at the top of the screen? it will start with a 9 or a 10.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] davetwin:
lol was just writing a post to say I couldnt see it and whilst in the process of typing what was at the top of the screen I saw the number :facepalm:

10.6.1.27.1-20130711
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Ok, so you are on the new bootloader definitely.

Edit as I can't read properly lol.

Go to the following link and follow the instructions. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2409602

You will need to grab the last official Prime firmware from the asus site and extract it twice to get the blob file.

Just place the blob in the same place as your fastboot exe and run the following command instead of the last but one in the instructions.

fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system blob
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] davetwin:
It will let me flash through fastboot but all the other commands (fastboot erase system etc) just came back waiting for deivce.

The latest firmware blob from the asus website flashed ok, The fastboot -i 0x0b05 reboot command said rebooting and finished in 0.548s however the pad remained on the fastboot screen but the locked up, cursor not flashing or moveable.

Upon rebooting takes me straight back into the problem twrp :(

UPDATE: Trying again but this time fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase etc - seems to be doing now, will do all and flash blob and report back

UPDATE 2: Looking promising, blue progress line on fastboot screen while writing system blob

UPDATE 3: After using the fastboot reboot command I am now sat at the ASUS boot screen with nothing happening

UPDATE 4: Rebooted using vol down and power, and selected fastboot icon onscreen, flashed twrp 2.5.0.0 via fastboot and rebooted into recovery fine :D

UPDATE 5: It appears I am now back working as I have successfully falshed "Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip" and now running back on HB2.31, will flash HB1.51 now then Im all good :)

From now on I will pay really close attention to twrp when making backups and make sure I dont select to backup recovery.

Next challenge is to try and get adb to work on my win 8 laptop

I really appreciate all your help with this flumpster, I have certainly learned a bit more now, thanks again :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] carperman:
Hi, does this rom support ext4 on microsd?

Just the system can't see or mount it? fat32 partition working fine?

I tried data2sd version and it saw ext4 partition fine, but have dumped data2sd due to freezes and corruption on ext4 that prevented booting. Shame as it was smoother.

I now going use my shiny new 64gb sandisk ultra for storage and possible move some app to it.

thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Exfat should work fine in the rom mate. I have my 64 gig formatted to fat32 but I don't put anything on there over 4 gig.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] carperman:
thanks for reply

but what about ext4 on microsd?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] davetwin:
Hi Flumpster,

Thought I would give you an update

Since re-installing everything after my issues I have decided to actually stay with HB2.31. Strangest thing is since I have gone through the process that you instructed me to do to get my pad all working again I have not been suffering from any battery drain.

My pad was last charged on Saturday and through just normal surfing my batteries are sat at 48% (Dock) 77% (Pad), I've got all the same apps installed as before since restoring my titainium backup :D

EDIT: Previously it would have been flat by now
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
EXT4 is not supported native as an external source but there will be apps out there that support it for transferring apps to it etc..

Nice one mate.. Glad you got it all sorted :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kornball:
What all did you do to get rid of the battery drain? My dock drain is insane. I'm currently using Hunds kernel with Data2SD. The stock tablet/dock used to last me almost a week on a single charge, but after switching over to HB 2.31, I'm lucky to get 2-3 days. Still, I LOVE this rom.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] davetwin:
I didnt really do anything special thats whats confused me.

I did partially brick my tab by trying to recover an old recovery on the wrong bootloader. I then had to reflash the original system blob from asus to enable me to reflash the correct recovery, just then reflashed HB2.31, left the tab for 24hours then recovered my Titanium backup. Thats all I did, I was quite surprised myself to see I haf still had battery in dock and tab after a few days.

Cant really offer any more than that im afraid :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kornball:
No worries, man. I read through your posts with flumpster regarding your partial brick but wasn't sure if you had done anything else. Glad your drain is fixed!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SAJdroid:
No 1 ROM

This is by far the most stable , fast & the cleanest ROM for Prime. Excellent work by the team Wookie :good::good::good::good::
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Revhead:
Wanted to share.

Was having battery drain probs.

Tried this, tried that . . .

Finally did a complete wipe including external card (didn't wipe card before).

Battery problem now gone.

External card appears to be the key?

:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Coempi:
You might have had corrupted files on your card which made some app run in the background causing battery drain.

help restoring twrp to AndroWook

Hi all! I need help restoring twrp.

I was trying to downgrade the bootloader to 4.1.1 so I could try cm11, but, since I was unable to get my hands on a computer, I decided to install twrp to support kit Kat before downgrading the bootloader of androwook . I've installed using dd and the terminal emulator directly from android.

No errors whatsoever...

Now, I have twrp but is almost useless... it asks for a password when I boot it, but I can cancel that and it works. The problem is when selecting install zip, it doesn't mount the sdcard nor my external sdcard (where I can put some files). How can I restore the Androwook (latest version) bootloader, so I can have a functioning twrp? Tomorrow I have access to my pc so I can use adb or fastboot. I've tried with the latest version of twrp, using their .blob and again dd.

Any help would be appreciated!

Cheers

PS: the tablet boots fine and it works

From cm11 back to AndroWook

I all ! I know i've already given enough trouble to everyone, but i was just trying to understand and try a few more ROMs - but definitely , AndroWook rules .

I'm trying to get back to AndroWook, but i'm unable to install it .

I was trying to upgrade the bootloader (latest in this thread - Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip ) but I get errors.

Then, i tried an older version (to AndroWook 2.2 - Upgrade Hairybean 4.2.1 Bootloader & Recovery.zip) but still, no cigar !

I'm using CWM-based recovery (that i need to install to try cm11) v6.0.4.5 . Should i first install TWRP ? Am i doing something wrong ??

Cheers
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] feiticeir0:
Solved it !

Just flashed the lastest TWRP for ICS boot loader ! After that, no problem into flashing the AndroWook latest files (boot bootloader and ROM).

Thank you all ! :laugh: :laugh:

Bricked?

Hi,

I have a big problem : I think i bricked my tablet.

I tried to install this ROM, i followed every step as mentionned.

I flash the Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip successfully then i wiped all data and after, i couldn't access to my microSD where the Hairybean 2.31.zip is!

So i can't flash anything, i can't restore nandroid et my device is blocked on the ASUS splashscreen.

The only thing i can do is to reboot in fastboot mode.

Could anyone help me?

Sorry for my bad english.

Thanx.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] feiticeir0:
Do you have access to recovery ?

If so, you can use adb push to copy AndroWook to the internal (or external) SD Card and install the zip the files afterwards...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I'll leave you carry on mate and step in if you need help. He does need to know if he can access recovery and also you need the long number across the top of the fastboot screen. It will start with 9 or 10.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
Yes I can acces recovery but I can't mount microsd so can I push the rom on the internal sdcard?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Being able to access recovery is good. Go back to bootloader and tell us what the number up the top of the screen is I mentioned.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
The only number I see on the fastboot screen is the released version of the stock rom which is 10.6.1.27.1
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
That's the one we need. This means you are on the 4.2 bootloader and you have flashed the wrong version of recovery for your bootloader, you are pretty lucky you are not hard bricked.

First of all try this..

And if you get no joy try this..

At no time use the wipe option in the fastboot menu.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
I tried both options but i'm still blocked on the ASUS splashscreen with the nvdia logo on the right bottom corner. When i'm in fastboot mode the release number is 10.4.2.18. It's dysplaying os will cold boot in 10 seconds but nothing happends....:crying::crying::crying:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You are now posting different numbers to what you did earlier?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
I flashed the latest firmware I found on Asus website, that's why the release is not the same. But now I can't access to recovery anymore et I can't shutdown the tablet: when I press the power button the tablet always reboot...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
If you flashed the latest official asus then that would have erased your twrp and you will now have to install the one for jellybean.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
I just tried to install TWRP 2.6.3.0 for JB but nothing changes.... I can't boot, I can't shutdown, I can't boot into recovery. I think it's because i can't send recovery to the tablet because i can't activate USB debugging

Edit : I tried this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2409602 one more time and it works!!!! My tablet is now stock.

Thanks a lot!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
So it looks like it is the modules that are causing it not to work with exfat formatted cards.

There is a flashable zip attached to this post.

It is the newest kernel that Hunds gave me earlier but I don't think it is going to fix that exfat issue unless he re-compiles the modules.

At least we know what is causing it now and he should be able to fix it.

Can you please test the zip and try it with it ejected first and then putting the sd card back in after like you tested just now.

Edit. I only have a spare 4 gig micro sd here as the rest are being used for main test and data2sd test but I just formatted the 4 gig to exfat and placed it in prime with new hunds kernel and it didn't reboot.

I then restarted with the card still in and it booted fine.

Maybe this is because I am using such a small size exfat.

Please test.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sjrixon:
Flashed.. That worked.. It's reading my card now
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Awesome.. I will wait for one or two more people to confirm and I will add it to the new rom.

If it is confirmed working I will add it to the kernel installer for the time being until 2.31 gets released.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
For the person with the wallpaper issue.

I have just tested the rom back on complete stock and the wallpaper picker is just as temperamental on that.

I have changed mine to at least match the way that stock does it but the more you change or after a while it can take 3 selections to get it to apply.

Where you are seeing my wallpaper being shown all the time at the moment on stock that just goes black and wont change to anything.

Try the flashable zip I have linked to and if it is any better I will include it in next release.

TL;DR Blame Asus ;)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I have just done a quick test by installing the Hunds kernel that comes with the rom and putting in an exfat card and it did reboot me.

I then tested using the fixed kernel above and it fixed it.

I have updated the rom and updated the kernel installer and I will upload the edited kernel installer now and change links in second post in 20 mins.

Will report back when the new kernel installer is live.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Second post now has Updated Kernel Installer.

If anyone is using Hunds I would advise running this installer and re-installing the kernel as there are other fixes apart from exfat.

This will also update your Hunds Kernel App.

If you are using stock kernel then you have nothing to worry about.

I have made the changes into the rom my end but pointless uploading a rom just for that.

I will fix any other bugs that get found this week and release 2.31 with everything done.

Forgive me is this has been asked, but I'm on mobile and have no search option.

I'm upgrading from an ancient version of AndroWook. I installed the bootloader/twrp combo, and it booted into the custom TWRP properly. I wiped everything and went to flash AndroWook. I get through the Aroma options and is just stuck at "Installing..... 0%"

What idiotic thing did I screw up this time?

That's just aroma getting stuck. Reboot to recovery and try again

Anytime you use the Aroma installer, it's really important to wipe you cache a couple of times cause it uses cache to run!! WIPE cache before using Aroma for anything if you want to make sure that your install proceeds smoothly!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Actually wiping cache wipes /cache and wiping dalvik wipes data/dalvik-cache. Both of which are wiped in the installer to make sure in case people forget to do them.

Aroma uses the /tmp directory so cache has nothing to do with it.

And finally wiping anything more than once straight after each other achieves nothing. ;)

Working now...

Update: I was one of the people having the problem with the exFat formatted card. I had gotten around it by just doing the install with the stock kernel. After the latest version of the kernel installer last night, I used that to flash the hunds kernel over stock. Worked fine and now all is well.

BTW - the separate kernel installer is a really nice touch.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Cheers.

It is fixed in the main rom my end also along with the wallpaper selector.

I have also updated Google Play store, ES file explorer, Google Music and Google Plus which all updated yesterday.

I don't really see the point in updating the full rom just yet as the kernel installer will fix the hunds problem with exfat so I will hold off for a few days and see if any more bugs come in before next release.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
I guess you have figured out what reverse axis does now but the name is sort of a give away and the description by the side of the option in installer.

You do not need to fully re-install the rom. Just use the kernel installer from post 2 and select Hunds without ticking reverse axis options this time.

It will remove the reverse axis.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Nice one mate. Glad you got it all sorted. :good:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
Today i root the tablet again and installed the latest TWRP 2.6.3.0 for JB.

The problem is when i reboot into recovery I still can't access to microsd, as it was not plugged in.

So I can't flash any ROM after wiping data. I don't know what to do to install this rom which looks so great!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
That sounds more like the sdcard. Make sure it is fat32 and try a different one if you have one.

Failing that you are going to have to adb push the rom onto the device and install it then.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sbdags:
You shouldn't use 2.6.3.0. Flash the recovery and bootloader package in the first post.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
He went back to stock mate. He just needs a working version so he can install the bootloader and twrp version.

He could take the blob out of the zip and flash that manually in fastboot.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
You were right, I tried with an old microsd from my old HTC Bravo and it works.

I format the microsd from the tablet (which already was in FAT32) and that still doesn't work. So it's a microsd issue.

You told me to push the rom with adb but I don't know how to do it (i'm newbie) so i think I'll buy a new one and give you some news after i'll try with the new one.

By the way, thanks a lot for your help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
If it works with the old sd card you tried then just put the bootloader zip and the rom zip on there and install them then stick it back in the bravo when you are done.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
This could be a nice solution but I

prefer to have a new microsd just for the tablet, in case I want to change rom , it will be more practical.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
The Sdcard might not be faulty, it might be fine in the rom but twrp has different drivers. It especially don't like big cards.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
The one which worked is a Samsung 32gb and the one which wasn't worked is sandisk 8gb. I will order the same Samsung and if it doesn't work I'll use your solution and will ask for a refund.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Put that 8 gig card into windows and do a full format on it for fat 32. Do not format it in android as they can make a tiny partition before the main one and this can mess twrp up as the small one takes mmcblk1p0 instead of the main one.

Give it a go then.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lolokro:
I did it yesterday but it didn't work. I'm at work today for 24hours so I can't do anything. I'll tomorrow.
