[Asus Transformer TF700] pixbuf:
I don't think I'm bricked at all, since the tablet will properly boot up zombi-pop. The problems are three: 1) I don't have a fastboot option when I boot into the bootloader, even though the white text says "device is unlocked"; 2) I can't flash your stock ROM using TWRP 2.8 because of some symlink problem; and 3) when I use TWRP 2.5 it says there are no files in /sdcard. I'm thinking of flashing TWRP 2.6.1.0, which is what is in your bootloader/TWRP package, and then trying to flash the stock ROM. How does that sound?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Sorry you are right - I confused the thread and thought it was someone with a TF300 - which would have bricked you - apologies!!

Try 2.6.1.0 but in essence everything after 2.5.0.0 should be fine for what you are trying to do. Later 4.4 kitkat roms require higher versions.

If in doubt post your recovery log from /tmp/recovery.log or by copying it using the TWRP options.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pixbuf:
OK, I tried all kinds of recoveries and they all worked equally badly. I thought there might be some kind of root issue since it kept asking for my password. I booted into zombi-pop and reinstalled superSU. After that, I could install the stock ROM, but when it booted up I get a message saying Encryption unsuccessful. Encryption was interrupted and I have to do a factory reset. I did that, didn't work, wiped everything except internal storage, didn't work, fixed root again, flashed the stock ROM again, but I still get the Encryption unsuccessful message. Any ideas, O wise one?

I just thought of something: my /data partition is f2fs. Could that be screwing things up?
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Stock ROMs and kernels don't support f2fs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pixbuf:
I changed the file system on /data to ext4, did another factory reset, flashed your stock ROM and lo! it now boots up 4.2.1. Thanks to [MENTION=518363]sbdags[/MENTION].

Hi there :rolleyes:

By mistake i messed up the CP and AP bin files(they were really small in size) then i flashed my phone with same AP and CP files using Smart flash (i was able to go into s/w mode).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Destebate:
Hi guys!

I just flashed Carbon 1.8 a few minutes ago by the recommendation of a friend, he uses the same for his Nexus.

So the thing is, I'm not really a fan of the CRT-OFF animation.

I scoured through the ROM to look for an option but I can't find an option to disable the CRT-OFF animation in the Carbon ROM.

Of-course I used the search function including the ROM thread, I even googled but I can't find anything related to Carbon. Is it in plain sight and I'm still somehow missing it?

Thank you for your time!

Hi guys I've been searching and cant seem to find an answer. My xt907 is rooted and my boot loader is unlocked I'm running CWM. If i install any 4.3 roms they work great for initial boot but as soon as i reboot it hangs at the warning boot loader unlocked screen. And the only way i can get the phone working again is to get to ap fastboot and use the DROID_RAZR_M_Utility_1.20 to factory reset everything. If i flash a 4.2.2 rom i don't have any problems.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
The latest TWRP+mounting system prior to data/system wipes will probably solve your problems. Also, if you have a backup stored, you shouldn't need to fastboot every time.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan F:
I've been having the same problem. I thought it might be because I was using CWM, so I thought I'd give it a go with TWRP 2.323. I made a backup, wiped System, Formatted Data and wiped cache and Dalvik cache and installed [ROM][4.4.1][Official][OSE Rom][XT907].

It installed and booted up fine. After a restart, it hung on the bootloader screen. After booting up into TWRP and restoring the backup, it's still hanging on the bootloader unlocked screen. Doh!

I just reinstalled the new ROM and will hope I don't have to restart while I'm out today. Any ideas on things I can try to get things working?

Okay, I downloaded xt907-twrp-2.6.3.0. In trying to flash with fastboot, it's hanging on <waiting for device>. USB Debugging is enabled and the device is showing up. Thanks for the help!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:
Fastboot!

Extract the recovery.img from the zip.

But why do that, just flash the zip from your twrp you now have installed
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
I believe the one that Avi has is a .zip, not a .xml, so it needs to be flashed in recovery. Load it up on your SD, boot into the recovery you have now, flash the new recovery, and then reboot recovery.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan F:
TWRP 2.6.3.0 flashed successfully. Unfortunately, that didn't help at all. My phone still froze on the boot screen. I then booted into the new recovery, wiped everything and reinstalled the rom. Now it won't even boot the first time into the ROM, it just freezes on the boot screen. Help!

*EDIT

I just reinstalled it again and formatted data on top of the wipes this time. It booted into the new rom this time, but it did not get past the boot screen after restarting still.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Many people ran into this issue when 4.3 came out and then someone realized that we were forgetting something when wiping. It was something that we did when the BL was first unlocked, but everyone seemed to forget about it. We were forgetting to mount system, prior to performing wipes of the data/caches. Like Avi said, first, I would DL the ROM again and then place it in your SD. When you wipe, do the FDR option first. After that, go into mount and mount system. Then, go into the advanced wipe options and wipe data, system, cache/dalvik, and format data again. At this point, you can install the ROM as normal, don't re-mount system prior to installing, though. When I am done wiping, I always reboot recovery, but you don't have to do that.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan F:
Okay, I downloaded the zips again to make sure. This freezing at bootloader screen has happened with every of the dozen or so roms I've tried installing over the past 6 months since I unlocked the bootloader.

Could you clarify a little bit?

1.) Mount system

2.) Wipe (Factory Reset: data, cache, dalvik)

3.) Format data

4.) Install zips

What's the FDR option?

---------- Post added at 09:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

Following the above steps didn't solve it :( The rom installs fine, boots up for first time normally, but still freezes on the bootloader screen after a restart.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:
Try geting to the bootloader options & choose normal pwr up.

The new twrp will stick at the big M sometimes.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Then the file is bad or you are missing the install steps. FDR (Factory Data Reset) is the first option you get when you go into the wipe menu, before you go into advanced options. Make sure you're wiping system too, after you mount. If it doesn't work, then it's a bad file or you're still doing something wrong. Upgrading to the most current TWRP and mounting system fixed the issues for 99% of the people. The other 1% just have one of those phones that is "quirky."
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beady1:
okay not sure if your still having this problem. But i never did solve my issue just kept using 4.2.2. But i just flashed the new jbx kernel and a KitKat rom the other along with the newest version on safestrap and i have no issues. Everything flashed and installed perfectly and it boots like a champ. So maybe just skip over 4.3 like i did and see if you still have the issues. Sorry didnt see you were trying to flash 4.4. Only thing i can suggest is make sure you have newest safestrap and wipe out the old etc. But im sure everyone already touched on this stuff before me ;)
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Part of your problem is because you are using SS. If you're BL is unlocked, get rid of SS and use CWM or TWRP. SS is not a real recovery replacement, your stock recovery is still there. That's probably part of the reason you had issues.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beady1:

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan F:
I have the stable Cyanogenmod 10.1 installed on my phone now. I'm able to restart my phone without any consequences finally. Yay.

I also tried the cm-11-20131221-NIGHTLY-xt907.zip build. That one would initially start up fine, but a restart gave me the frozen bootloader screen. I tried it twice, redownloading it, too. Gah, it's frustrating not being able to try out different roms, but at least I have one that works!

Well, thanks for the help guys. I'd still like to be able to install other roms, so if anyone else has something I can try, I'll do it!

I experience the same BS on an all stock WIFI model (2013.06 date code). Thought it was JB 4.3 teething pain but my Note 3 running 4.3 doesn't do it. Have mainly noticed it playing Great Big War Game where it'll randomly freeze the whole tablet once per launch for about 10 secs where nothing responds (show touch, home, switch task, etc.) then it'll either return to normal or prompt with dialog to wait or close. Have also had it happen in Modern Combat 3 along with the random app close that, again, doesn't affect Note 3. Haven't seen newer apps affected so perhaps it's a software issue and is fixable but it's irritating nevertheless considering it's a Nexus device and after correcting the touch issues with ts10 firmware update. Going to try reflashing the stock image to see if it fixes it otherwise looking forward to dumping this Asus for a Note 10.1 2014 LTE. My Note 10.1 2013 and Note 2 have been 100% solid with never a crash, hang or touch issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] lomonic:
I had freezing problems when i was trying out the TS20 fix. TS10 seems to yield erratic behaviour randomly after each reboot.

Ever snce i've been testing the ones between TS10 and TS20. TS16 works better for me than TS18 - just being more responsive but both has no reboot issues. Am testing TS14 now and it seems better than TS16 but i needed more time to run it. None of the 14,16 and 18 has given me any kind of freeze after 24hrs of testing on multi-touch intensive apps.

You might wanna give 16 a try... i will be posting a more detailed update in sfhub's thread when i'm done with TS14 and TS12 testing.

The fix from the thread above helps with many touchscreen issues including freezes.

At least it helped with mine. I was experiencing freezes and so called "sticky touches" (like when you short tap on something and the device interprets it as a tap and hold).
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] mi7chy:
My device came with pre-Q and went through three OTA updates. After reflashing with factory R image minus wiping data (remove -w from flash-all.bat file) and with ts10 all appear to be better so far. Modern Combat 3 still randomly closes but it could be Gameloft's crappy coding. Need to run it for a few more days to confirm but reflashing factory R image with ts10 offer the best experience so far.

Mine does too now in addition to the already random reboot. The freezing happens when I try to input text on the keyboard.

Hello,

First thanks to any for all help I'm sure I'll receive. Im pretty sure of what I need to do but I'm a resident physician and can't afford to not have a phone by making a stupid mistake.

So I currently have supercid, am unlocked and rooted with boot loader 1.14. To update basically any roms or my current AOKP ROM I need 2.14. To get 2.14 I need to S-off, relock boot loader and run the 3.18 ruu, and reflash recovery.

Is this correct? The only other I'm confused of is relocking the bootloader, and them unlocking it again.

Thanks for any help.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You only need s-off to run the 3.18 RUU, locking the bootloader isn't necessary and only creates more work afterwards. So all you need to do is go here and get s-off, then you can download the RUU from here and run it. Your unlocked bootloader and s-off status will survive the RUU process but you will need to install TWRP recovery again afterwards.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -SyncSoft-:
Well, there is no best Rom in XDA. Try out different roms. See which ones you like and see their performance.

Memory Wise: partition your SD card and if you want, increase internal memory with a cronmod script.

I'm pretty sure their are different scripts to increase performance and definetly work...

And kernal wise, they can either come with a rom or you can flash it seperatly.

Sell the phone. Put some money on it and buy another phone without a Broadcom chip!

Stock rom without any tweak is Lag free! With pureperformance tweaks its pretty usable. And stock based custom roms we have they are good and stable. CM7 has bugs but performance is top!
