[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe.Tolchard:
I recommend using Snapdragon batteryguru. It learns your usage over a number of days and adjusts your phone for best battery usage. It also gives you options on when to allow apps to refresh in the background.

Also if you are rooted try either Bulletproof kernel or ElementalX. Both great kernels. ElementalX however, gives you options to undervolt, overclock/ underclock your phone etc.

Short of turning the brightness right down you won't get much less battery usage from the screen.

Judging by your images though you seem to be getting good usage out of the phone, specially with 12 hours off battery and over 2 hours screen with between 40 and 50% left.

Try the above though and see if that makes a difference.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NovaStark:
Thanks, I'll install a new kernel and see if it makes a difference and the Snapdragon battery app.

I just found it strange that before it wouldn't use too much and now it's using over 50% at times.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goran98:
I recently flashed ElementalX 5.2 to my One, and ever since I flashed it, I could swear that the vibration has been weaker. Whenever I'm pressing the capacitive buttons, typing on the keyboard, or really doing anything, the vibration feedback seems a lot weaker than before. Is there a way to get it back to default, or generally increase it? Thanks in advance! :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
Download faux123 from the play store. You can change the vibration intensity. I personally hate the vibrate motor on this phone, its waaaay too loud for me.

No, you dont need to be running his kernel to use it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goran98:
Thank you! That's exactly what I was looking for! Also, I see what you mean. Sometimes, when I'm in class, and I get a text, even with the sound off, it feels awkward because just the vibration alone is so loud. But frankly, having the vibration this low annoyed me a lot more than that, so I'll deal with it. Thanks again. :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
No problem. Actually, the Google edition rom has the perfect vibration intensity. Its strong enough to feel, but not too loud. HTC should really use that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
I am running CM10.1, and wanted to upgrade to the new nightlies, Upon trying to get into recovery, I cannot use goo manager to installed recovery nor reboot to recovery. I did then try to push TWRP to my device using fastboot, that did not seem to work as any time i rebooted to recovery it would do a normal reboot. I can access fastboot, however when I volume up on "RCK" the following error comes up

Key driver not found..Booting OS

Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "US_epad-10.6.1.14.4-20130329" A03

Booting Recovery kernel image

Booting Failed

Unrecoverable bootloader error (0x00000000).

I do not know if I have everything loaded into my PC correct, drivers, etc. Anyone who can help would be greatly appreciated.

As i am now I can run CM 10.1 just fine, booting and everything, I just cannot get into recovery to upgrade or change roms.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
I don't know if this method will work on CM. You can give it a shot and report back.

1. Download the Asus firmware from Asus website and extract it once because there is anotherr zip in it.

2. Copy the second zip file to your root directory on your internal sd and reboot

3. If it works, you should see the notification on the lower right corner and click on it. You just follow the instruction to put your device back to the factory bootloader.

Before you use this method, you need to move all your stuff to your computer as a back up because it will wipe everything that you have on your device..

There is another method that you could try if it does not work.. Good luck..:fingers-crossed:
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
I tried to download the US Firmware from the ASUS site, put it on the root of the internal, then rebooted. Did not see any notification :(

What is this other method you speak of....

This isn't a huge deal, if I'm stuck on a RC of CM 10.1 I can deal with it. I just like to be up to date and like to reconfigure my tablets and phones from time to time.

On a side note, isn't rom/recovery etc tasks with this tablet very difficult when compared to other tablets/phones?
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Did you unzip it once? You need to have a different firmware version than the one on your system... :) I will find the other method and link for you..
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
Thanks Man. I appreciate the help!
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
I am still looking for the link. I forgot what it is called...:( I will post the link here when I find it..:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
LetMeKnow, Thanks for the update.

Myp hone is a Droid Razr HD, and I know with that phone its possible through the bootloader to flash stock firmwear, is this possible at all with the Transformer tf700t? It would be great to have a simple tool to aid us in getting back to stock to start from square one!
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
By reading your post again, let me summarize it here. You know how to use fastboot, can't boot to your custom recovery (TWRP), want to flash stock recovery to fix your problem, and have try a few methods to put the stock back but it did not work. You still can get to your bootloader menu. Can you try to use this command to see if you can access to your custom recovery: fastboot boot-recovery

Good luck and get back to you on the link... :)

I then did try below. but when I went to reboot, it just stayed in fastboot, so that leads me to believe there is some error there, either my bootloader is screwy or something related. I appreciate your help. At this point if anything can get me back to stock as bought, I dont care if its older versions of the firmware/bootloader/stock recovery, I'll take it from there.

[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
I have not seen that before, so I don't know what to say...:o

When I did fastboot TWRP recovery, I used blob file instead of img file. Do you want to download the blob file and try again?

Edit: What version of TWRP did you fastboot? V2.6.3.0 is larger than our partition on the tf700. Therefore, you can not use it..:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
The .IMG was cwm recovery. I tried that after trying twrp most recent version. 2.6.3.1 I think.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
On a side note, when i fastboot the TWRP file to my device, the green blinking box stopped around "RCK" after that when i type in fastboot reboot to reboot the system, nothing happens. any thoughts?

At this point in time, if there is a way to force stock recovery through fastboot or the stock firmware as well, i'd like to give that a try.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
If fastboot doesn't work for you but you have a rooted Android, you can try installing a recovery using the dd method:

cd wherever/you/downloaded/twrp
su
dd if=openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-tf700t.blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

then reboot - the bootloader should flash your new recovery with a blue progress bar and reboot again. On the second reboot, hold down volume-down to get to the bootloader menu and try entering RCK again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
You can try _that method. He always have good advices and know what he is talking about.....:good:

Good luck....
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
_that. What screen do I have my tablet on when I run the dd command prompt ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
You mean the expected output? Something similar to:

15836+1 records in
15836+1 records out
8108136 bytes (8.1 MB) copied, 0.152395 s, 53.2 MB/s

(the above is from my PC - the TF700 is slower)

Or do you mean where you enter those commands? Either via your PC in an adb shell (in this case you must first transfer the file to the TF700 with adb push or other means), or directly on your tablet with a terminal app under Android (I recommend the one from jackpal, search the Play Store)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
I was able to get the same output, however when I rebooted after running the last dd code, it did not do anything, just rebooted as normal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
What is the response when you use power and volume down buttons?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
It takes me into fastboot or boot loader screen w the rck, android cold boot, and wipe data icons
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
If you select rck, it boots your device as a normal system boot because there is nothing for it to install.. It is the behave of the stock recovery. I don't know why you can not install the custom recovery..:( I believe that you are unlocked..:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
If I select rck it shows the error in my op. Then freezes and have to hold power to reboot.

You try to rename the stock firmware and see if you can install it..
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Either your blob file is not a signed blob file (check the first few characters - it must begin with "-SIGNED-BY-SIGNBLOB"), or your bootloader has serious issues which may prevent you from ever repairing this problem. Do you still see "The device is unlocked" in the upper left corner when booting?
[Asus Transformer TF700] ffalzone23:
Yes my device says it is unlocked when booting up. Where do I look for the signed blob?

Open it with a hex editor, or even with Notepad, and check the first few characters.

[Asus Transformer TF700] mordango:
Hello, all. I'm sure there are not many of us paying attention to this forum anymore, but I'll try this anyway.

I have same condition as described in this OP. I was trying to convert the data partition to f2fs and I've ended up with the same error when I try to boot to recovery. Only difference is the version of OEM bootloader. I think i must have effed up the partition when trying to convert to f2fs.

Anyway, I can't find the OEM firmware anymore. ASUS doesn't have it and links within this forum are dead now. So, a couple of questions:

1. If some kind soul has the OEM bootloader .img or .blob, will I even be able to get it flashed given the error I am experiencing?

2. What are my options or am i truly bricked?

Will appreciate any advice or solutions. I'm not beholden to the tablet. I'm just trying to use it for a dedicated streamer for music to a Bluetooth receiver.

FWIW, I'm running KatKiss 7.1.2, build number "full_tf700t-userdebug 7.1.2 N9F27L eng.timduru.20171917.094833 test-keys"
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nektopoli:
Are you using CM as your recovery console or TWRP? - NP
[Asus Transformer TF700] mordango:
TWRP. I think it's 2.8.7.4 but i can't verify since it won't load the recovery.

[Asus Transformer TF700] osvaldoll:
Hi, I need help with my TF700T. I appeal to you after reading everything about the fault but I can not find a solution.

I had not used it for several months. It is running the ROM KatKiss of 2 years ago and the problem I generated when trying to update.

The first step was to try to update the Recovery, but I must have made some serious error since the recovery and everything started.

The operation failed, I lost the TWRC and only access to the RKC was left.

Fastboot detected the tablet without problems and I tried again to flash from my PC but without success.

Then I reset the tablet with the pin located on the left side near the sd card and everything got worse.

While the tablet continues to run the ROM it had, I only have access to the RKC but it gives the following error

key driver not found..booting

Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> released by "US_epad-10.6.1.14.4-20130329" A03

Starting Fastboot USB Download protocol

Booting Recovery kernel image

Booting Failed

Unrecoverable bootloader error (0x00000000).

Now I do not have access with the Fastboot or with adb, I tried with two PCs with W10. "Waiting device" ......

The SU is busy and I did not find a way to get it back

The tablet continues to work well, communicates with PCs to upload files without problems.

Today I tried to restore the system and it does not.

Does anyone have any clue to see how the TF700 can be recovered?

Thank in advance

Osvaldo
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nektopoli:
[MENTION=691775]osvaldoll[/MENTION], if the TF700 can receive commands from your PC you should be able to wipe the tablet, re-flash TWRP and then from the new TWRP flash a new ROM.

With the TF hook up to your PC send it a "fastboot reboot" and see if it reboots. - NP
[Asus Transformer TF700] osvaldoll:
Thanks Nektopoli.

I just finished following your instructions.

With the RKC icon flashing I sent the command and the TF reboot normaly the rom.

It is a progress, before I tried with RKC and gave error.

If it is not annoying, I need step by step the instructions to follow correctly. At this point I do not want to continue experimenting on my own and making another mistake about it.

Thanks in advance
[Asus Transformer TF700] osvaldoll:

[Asus Transformer TF700] Nektopoli:
Oh you have to use the TWRP zip file and you have to unzip it TWICE. It will leave you with a BLOB file and that's what has to be flashed. - NP
[Asus Transformer TF700] osvaldoll:
Ok, i can`t find .zip from de TWRP web site, only .img and older .blob. Then I try with this file as follow

Are there other way to do it? or my be the wrong TWRP file?

Nektopoli, the path is ok, all files are in the same directory and the feedback of the system confirm it.

The commands are clear, but something is not working.

The real thing is recovery uploaded without warning.

Then I can not boot into the recovery possibly because it is not recognized. So, TWRP app accuses not finding the recovery when I intented a back up.

What next?

I'm going to try other recoveries but I doubt the result will change.

What else can be done? Maybe flashing an original rom that formats and contains all the files?

There's not much left to do, I'm afraid
