That may be a placebo. First of all, comparing 4.4 KitKat vs. stock average AnTuTu result is like comparing the taste of KitKat vs. jelly beans. Second, what you really should do to see if bionic library for Krait gives you any advantage is to run bionic-benchmarks and compare results for every single routine.

The best way to compare Dalvik performance would be to run CF-Bench and compare "Java Efficiency" results.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotweiss:
I have a European Nexus 5 bought from the UK Google store. On the back the model of my phone is stated as the D821. My LTE connection is not working. I entered the service menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and when I select 'Select Radio Band' I only get 'USA band' as an option. Did LG put the wrong motherboard in my phone? Do you guys also have 'US band' as your only option. I called Orange ten times already and they say that everything is ok on their side. Any ideas?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:

Could be SIM issue also
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kortxero:
Just a little FYI, with the hope it will help you. I also have a D821 (bought on the French Play Store), with Orange FR as my carrier. "USA band" is also the only option I have but LTE worked fine when I tried it (I could not get more than 20 Mb/s, but I didn't try in different locations when I was in an LTE-covered area). I should also mention that I changed my SIM card to a new one when I got the Nexus 5. Good luck!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Not sure if Orange FR are the same as EE in the UK (Orange UK + T-Mobile UK combined), but their LTE is limited to 20Mb/s
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotweiss:
Well I am in Poland. Orange just updated their network. My download with 3g is 20 mb/s. Was hoping for 50 mb/s like on the other LTE networks here.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleuxeon:
Same here : bought it from french play store, my carrier is SFR (RED) and I can only see "USA Band"
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kortxero:
That's also what I thought in the first place, but according to my SLA, my bandwidth is only capped when I reach my fair-use limit of 3 Gb. I didn't expect to hit the theoretical 150 Mb/s "rev limiter", but I have seen some Orange users saying they had an average of 30 Mb/s.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotweiss:
Just bought a sim from a competing network. 56 mb/s down 25 mb/s up. The problem lies with Orange.

Hi, when using TomTom 5.21 for navigation the radio of the MDA Vario very often is NOT REACHABLE, calls are redirected to the providers mailbox services.

That's really bad! Seems there's to less CPU power to answer incoming calls, tested that 5 or 6 times. Everytime I need 2 or 3 calls to get through (signal strengh is of course fine).

Can someone prove that?

[MENTION=769774]lpdunwell[/MENTION]

Any ideas what BC1 is for? Also there is no SOS file inside the BLOB. I have repacked the BLOB as I wanted to make a bootloader and recovery flash package but not sure how to flash a recovery.

On the TF700 you could just pack it back into the BLOB using the below and it would flash to staging fine. Any ideas?

blobpack -s blob EBT blob.EBT SOS blob.SOS

I wonder if the same can be done like this?

blobpack -s blob BCT blob.BCT BC1 blob.BC1 EBT blob.EBT SOS blob.SOS
[Asus Transformer TF701] lpdunwell:
TBCH, I'm not sure about the BC1.

The recovery is not part of the blob (anymore?). And the exact way an official update flashes it is probably not the best way to go when flashing manually. My advice for the moment probably is: Keep flashing the bootloader to a minimum, and flash recoveries via fastboot.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Yeah I tried a number of ways to get it to flash but it looks like the nvcopy tool that Asus use doesn't work outside the stock recovery.

On ASUS and can find only WW_epaduser_10_14_1_47_UpdateLauncher.zip.

[Asus Transformer TF701] SgtMac02:
Ok, so I'm trying to get through this and having some trouble...

I've been having to go back and forth on a few things and I fear I've managed to hose thing up pretty good. But at this point, I have the files you state, and in following these instructions, was able to successfully erase the partitions mentioned, then when I tried to flash the first time, I actually screwed up and didn't have the blob file I needed, so now I go back, and obviously I can't re-erase the other files, but formatting system still works, so I know I'm getting good communication with the device. Then trying to flash the blob to staging, I get:

sending 'staging' (1379 KB)...

FAILED (command write failed (No such device or address))

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Am I completely bricked?

I'm stuck in a boot loop with Asus / Unlocked appearing and unable to get to recovery. I've tried connecting with win 8.1 via usb but adb does not see devices. i assume running fastboot is the same situation. I can see the device listed APX and understand that Nvflash can help with that but there is no nvflash for Tegra 4.

I'm not sure how it got to this state - could be me or device. it is new and i considered returning save for the Device is Unlocked message :(

Ironically, this is my second Tf701t as the first cracked the screen. Considering taking motherboard out of old and putting in new (or visa vera) but I'm really bad with hardware.

Do I really have 2 broken devices :( :( I'll try anything.

Thanks for any (emotional) support ...

[Asus Transformer TF701] askerlee:
Thank you for your analysis! I wonder does the "staging" partition contain temporary updates, and the blob flashed to it will automatically decompress to the correct partitions in the next boot?

In other words, in order to update the bootloader and the recovery system, I could do either:

1.

fastboot flash staging bootloader
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

Or:

blobpack -s bootloader-TWRP.blob EBT bootloader.EBT SOS TWRP.img
fastboot flash staging bootloader-TWRP.blob

Are they equivalent?

[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
What are you trying to do? Which BL and recovery do you currently have?

Flashable zips for the last bootloaders are here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61045480&postcount=2
[Asus Transformer TF701] xabier87:
Thanks for the info! I might try with these zips and bootloaders. I am trying to reset my tablet or make it work. Had cm-12.1-20160711-NIGHTLY-tf701t.zip on it with TWRP recovery and US_epad-10.26.1.18-20131217 bootloader but it recently stoppped working. I do have access to the bootloader and recovery but after following the fastboot instructions and rebooting nothing is changed on the tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Probably nothing wrong with BL or recovery if you can boot into it. Try formatting data in TWRP and then flash a rom that's compatible with your current BL/recovery combo.

You will have to format data anyway if you're moving to a different rom....
[Asus Transformer TF701] xabier87:
I am sorry, the recovery I wrote was wrong. I have the PhilZ Touch 6.59.0 recovery. The problem is that it is useless. Also I have used fastboot boot recovery TWRP.img and even with that recovery I have the same problem. Basically both recoveries can't mount the partitions properly and can't format data or install rom. When I try it says: E: Error mounting /data or /cache.

Hello. How can I increase the size of the SOS partition?
[Asus Transformer TF701] dim^n:
Hello, I got problem with this device. Earlier everything seemed to be working, then I tried to flash any rom via TWRP, but cant. Has no problem with nandroid restoring of data and system. Thought it was a problem of TWRP, flashed Philz touch, tried to flash roms via Philz touch, but it was the same result. Then something goes wrong and philz touch flashed with error. Tf701 shows me logo, then tried to boot to recovery, it shows navbar with buttons, and then reboots (feature of Philz — reboot on failure) . Vol- + power just reboot the device. Adb devices command on pc cant see my brick device, I think the data and system wasnt formatted before failure, and debugging was enabled. PC only shows "K00C" when the device tried to boot into rck, and "APX". Manual installing of drivers cant help me. Device discharges for 1-2 days, when it in "off" state (by pressing vol+ and power), thats strange (UPD, I thought it was power off, but its APX mode, thats useless. Found DIP trigger on motherboard, that is the power trigger) . Tried to open and disconnect battery from motherboard, but it has no effect. Face-palm. Is this a nand failure, or I can help it somehow?
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
You may have come here a little late...

If you cannot boot into fastboot or recovery and the tablet is in a continous reboot cycle it's probably done for.

The K00C is the device name for the TF701 though. How long does that show in device manager?
[Asus Transformer TF701] dim^n:
something about 5 secs, since recovery starts to boot and till it reboots the device. Has no idea what drivers should I install. Tried to install via inf files Adb+fastboot drivers from xda and 4pda, but that cant help my PC to detect my device.

Found in one of threads that flashing bootloader is dangerous. Maybe I should delete it from TWRP install archive cause when I tried to flash roms, Ive changed recoveries 6-8 times, and here it is.
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
There are a number of things I don't understand:

You must have had a working fastboot driver since you were able to flash a recovery (6-8 times!!???) so why are you trying to install adb fastboot?

What's that about a bootloader? Why is flashing it dangerous and why would you want to flash one? Flashing anything is dangerous if you don't do it right.

What rom were you trying to flash before you borked it?

If you cannot get into fastboot anymore you may have one small chance to fix this. But I cannot remember if this method has ever been tried on a TF701. It works on all the other Transformers but this one - I donlt know. Use it at your own risk:

http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...my-transformer-tf700-boots-only-recovery.html

Good luck
[Asus Transformer TF701] dim^n:
1. I flashed install zips with recoveries inside it.

2. Dont know why, Its not my opinion:

3. I tried to flash KatKiss and Blisspop

4. Ok thanks, this only if the PC will see my brick device!
[Asus Transformer TF701] dim^n:
Finally I install drivers and rebooted my tab to bl! Then flashed TWRP and restored BlissPop rom that I used. But I still cant flash roms from recovery (see the screenshot). Thats why I want to revert to stock configuration rom, recovery, bl, etc as the 1st post said. But here some questions. Can I flash stock rom via stock recovery or TWRP (link from instruction is broken)? And can I use 10.26.1.18 rom that I already have? Thanks a lot!
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Before you try the stock rom, just try this:

In TWRP convert /system to ext3, then back to ext4, then flash the rom. It's a bug in TWRP....

I don;t think you can flash the stock firmware zip in recovery. You can try.... unzip the download once so that you have a zip with just a blob and a meta-inf file, then flash that in recovery, but it will most likely fail.

You can however flash the stock blob in fastboot. Although I have not done this on this tablet myself, I don;t see a reason why it should not work. I've done it on both the TF300 and TF700 numerous times.

With the blob in your fastboot directory the command is: fastboot flash system blob

TF701T bootloader 0x00000008 error

Dear friends, I ask to help or assist advice or council.

TF701T K00C 4.4.2 began to disconnect spontaneously, and I decided to reflash it.

Asus unlock tool said the device was unlocked, but it did not reset the tablet and the message that the devise is unlocked did not appear on the download, but Kingo Root did it and Official TWRP App accepted twrp-3.1.0-0-tf701t_final_full_f2fs_v6 and wrote that the bootloader was updated. When I tried to get into the recovery, the tablet gave bootloader failed, but after the reboot the android booted. I rebooted the tablet and entered the recovery again - it turned out to be a drain - then I selected the wape data item and after the reboot I saw Unrecoverable bootloader error (0x00000008) and then the Asus sign does not load.

I downloaded the driver Asus MeMO Pad 8 ME581CL, launched the info file to set up Asus drivers in to Windows, and launched the fastboot, but it does not see the tablet (and Windows does not see the tablet). Tell me, please, what to do?
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Oh boy! There are a few things in your post that do not make sense - I assume translation problems? - but that probably won't make a difference. If you cannot boot into the bootloader to get fastboot access and the tablet does not boot past the first Asus logo, so it does not even attempt to boot into recovery, you're done for. The tablet is dead and only a new mainboard will revive it. Sorry.

If you're interested to learn why you bricked it, read on:

I think you mean to say "did not appear when booting"??

. You mean it confirmed the recovery was flashed? Or did you flash a BL/recovery package???

Fair warning: Rant up ahead!

How I hate these apps that make it "easy" to flash a recovery!!! It should not be easy! If a user does not care to invest time to learn and setup fastboot and adb he/she has no business flashing anything to anything!!!!Period! - end rant-

Uh-oh, huge red warning, this is the point where you should have asked for help

- ???? Don't understand

The final nail to the coffin. You never wipe data from the bootloader if you have a custom recovery installed. Never.

Wrong driver and probably way too late to think about setting up fastboot. This should have been step 1 in the whole thing.....

Sorry for your loss man!
