[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TonyStark R.I.P.:
~The following are the main determining factors in the differences between Android Development and Android Original Development,as laid out by XDA Developer Admin pulser_g2.~

The following are most likely “Original Development”:​

Official releases of highly original and upstream custom ROMs (built from the ground up with significant original development within them

Official releases/development of such original ROMs, perhaps posted by the maintainer or their nominated person.

A significant “first” in development for a device. Significant is subjective, but it is likely something which took considerable time/effort, and is generally accepted by developers to be significant and non-trivial.

Kernels which are built with beneficial changes that are not simply pulled from other kernels already available. Some element of original work is expected.

Tools and utilities with a clear purpose, and which are well-made, and useful to users. They should have an element of originality, either in purpose or through significant improvement in the means of operation.

Significant port of a ROM from one device to another, giving enhanced features or functionality to users of the target device. The port should be beneficial (a port from two virtually identical devices isn’t original development, it’s winzipping, and nobody really benefits from this, as it’s not development)

The following are most likely not “Original Development”, and should be posted in the "Development” subforum:​

Your own “unofficial” stock build of your favourite original, source-built (or otherwise) ROM, particularly where an official or maintainer-endorsed thread exists already.

Minor derivatives of other ROMs with little or no changes, or ROMs consisting of “placebo” features as a main constituent or claim.

Renames or rebadges of others’ work – these don’t belong on XDA at all! Refer to rule 12 for more information.

Reposts of existing ROMs with small changes (i.e. kitchen work, such as adding a couple of apps). If you could realistically distribute your changes as an “addon pack” above and beyond a ROM, you should do so. In addition, your “ROM” would not be original development as it would be substantially identical to the original ROM.

A thread created with unrealistic goals that are clearly unachievable by those starting the thread. This is not intended to discourage high aspirations, rather to prevent threads porting Windows Phone 8 to the HTC Wallaby. This is pretty much common sense.

A ROM where a main or significant claim/feature is graphical changes to the user interface (ie. Themed ROM)

Today I got a system update notification so I installed it (I'm running stock Asus rom; I was hoping for android 4.4 :laugh:) without really giving it much attention.

After it installed the update, it kept showing the Asus boot screen 'ASUS Inspiring Innovation . Persistent Perfection' with the moving circles underneath the text.

After half an hour I decided it took too long so I pressed the power button but it again kept hanging at that same screen. :crying:

Finally I wiped the tablet and it came back to life. But there was something odd, at 'About' I saw I was running android 4.2.2 in stead of 4.3 I was running before the failed update. I tried checking for an update but there was none according to the tablet :confused:

After I downloaded WW_epaduser_10_26_1_7_UpdateLauncher.zip from the website and extracting it to the sd card root, it started updating :fingers-crossed:. This time it went well and I was running 4.3 again (too bad I have to restore everyting) but when I checked at the tablet if there was an update available, it said there was! Except the version number wasn't higher but lower! it wants to download 10.14.1.28 while I'm running 10.26.1.7.:confused:

Has anyone else got this false update notification? is there something wrong @ the Asus servers?
[Asus Transformer TF701] EmilianM:
The same issue here.. I did an update today hoping that it will be a new version of android and I did not really look very well at what it is doing as last time it worked flawless!

After this update my tablet is dead! I tried hard reset and re-installing the firmware and nothing works!

I don't want to wipe and restore everything:( !
[Asus Transformer TF701] xRevilatioNx:
I just received the update as well. But I didn't go through the ordeal you all went through. It went quite smoothly actually!

I also received a firmware update that was very new. It's the 10.26.1.18 The kernel was also updated to December 18.

Had anyone noticed the brightness issue resolved? For that matter, has anyone noticed ANY changes? My hope is the issue where you had to click on the "smart saving" icon in the drop down menu isn't needed anymore (to fix the interment brightness issues.)

The only thing I saw was a pop-up when the update was completed. It said Asus has a new program built into the device that will send usage information and statistics to them to help find any issues and keep it up to date. Then it asked if I understood with an option to click a check mark. I didn't click it.. I don't want to share my information with them. Are they nuts?
[Asus Transformer TF701] EmilianM:
BTW my version after this failed update is :10.14.1.28
[Asus Transformer TF701] tozzke:
I think wiping your tablet is the only option here. I tried several things which all didn't work :(
[Asus Transformer TF701] EmilianM:
I wiped my tablet an installed the latest WW 10.26.1.7 firmware that I found on their site, because it seems that it went back to android 4.2.2.

Now it is again proposing to install the 10.14.1.28 :), I will not do it again!
[Asus Transformer TF701] xRevilatioNx:
Are you guys rooted?
[Asus Transformer TF701] tozzke:
nope, I was (and am) running stock
[Asus Transformer TF701] Lamensis:
damn why didnt i read this first ... i just pressed "yes, do so" ... and now its stuck at the Asus Inspiring Innovation with the loading circle ... im giving it another 15 minutes before i press some buttons

Also not rooted ...
[Asus Transformer TF701] stephxxx:
Same issue here bought in France and I had so many issues with keyboard = switching to QWERTY while should be AZERTY plus

also some letter keyboard shifts and sometimes I need to press 3 times before activating an item that I was happy to find an update today !!!

And no I am stuck on the spinning logo: (

Unfortunately I am quite new in the "wiping" procedure... Could someone point me in the correct direction how to correctly to wipe out,

for updating the firmware I have also a question... they mention something on SW version but I cannot find this information as cannot access the pad anymore :( :(

*How to check SW version of your Eee Pad Transformer Infinity TF700T?

Path: [Settings]-->[About tablet]-->Build number"

Would appreciate your kind assistance to try to get back on track...

Thank you

i was able to get into bootloader via adb. it clearly sais : "WW_epad-10.14.1.28-20130827"

this is the above mentioned "wrong" firmware

edit: is there a possibility for anyone of you who has the correct one to upload it somewhere? i dont know what i would be missing if i have to wipe
[Asus Transformer TF701] tozzke:
I wasn't even able to flash WW_epaduser_10_26_1_7_UpdateLauncher.zip when I extracted that file to the root of my micro SD card.

This only worked (at least for me) after wiping the tablet
[Asus Transformer TF701] Lamensis:
true.wiped now ... flashing 10_26_1_7 atm.

All data lost due to _their_ mistake ...

and btw: the first time i didnt root an android device almost right out-of-the-box and this happens,... how ironic :D
[Asus Transformer TF701] xRevilatioNx:
Those having issues... are you outside the US? Trying to determine if it's systematic worldwide or for only certain countries. I'm from the US and it downloaded flawlessly.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Lamensis:
<-Germany here

Edit:
[Asus Transformer TF701] tozzke:
Netherlands here (WW-version)

but did you get the older 10.14.1.28 as well? or did you get a newer version than you already had?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Aaroneious:
Support page missing for TF701

Is it me or is the entire download/support page for the TF701 missing from Asus's website? Everything seems to be present for the TF700 but all the downloads for the 701 are gone.

https://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_TF701T/#support
[Asus Transformer TF701] xRevilatioNx:
I received the new update (10..26.1.18 ) It also included an updated kernel (3.4.57 - December 18 ) I posted it in the "New Firmware Update" thread along with a few other notes.
[Asus Transformer TF701] tozzke:
I was also struggling with the Asus site earlier today, but finally I found it:

[Asus Transformer TF701] Silverseraph:
Damn! Same here, EU - DE (germany)

The update message came and i said "yes" ... and now it hangs, i used Power + Vol - rocker and wiped & tried to reinstall the "recovery ROM" (my ASUS TF701T was still stock ROM only and not rooted) and now i receive a fallen down android robot who tells me something is broken (red ! message) :(

What can i do ;)

Update: i Wiped a 2nd time, seems this helped, now it re-installs the 4.2.2. i hope, it hangs for 4 min´s with the spinning circle but the recovery runs fine, now i´m back on stock 4.2.2 and there´s no possibility to update :) ;) lol. But yay nothing broken.

[Asus Transformer TF701] Koshara:
Same problem here - EU (LT), WW SKU. Everything was fine. Untill the update. Had to wipe the device to recover. Now downloading 10.26.1.7 ROM... Hope I will not have to wipe it again...

Here goes nothing... Will update after the manual update...
[Asus Transformer TF701] stephxxx:
France -here... seems that all lots of "european" TF701 are concerned here...

Just to confirm my understanding of wiping:

Should I consider reflashing the firmware with Clockworkmod recovery [v6.0.3.7] from DrGravy ?

As I cannot access the system anymore, Am I right to consider that SKU for my tablet is WW ?

I have ADB + fastboot installed but cannot have the Universal_Naked_Driver_0.73 recognized on W7 x64... Any ideas ?

Sorry to ask maybe noobs questions but I wasn't expecting to follow this road so quickly... was expecting

to wait for a stable version before trying to root and TF701 is my first pad... But I am learning fast :)

Cheers

steph
[Asus Transformer TF701] Lamensis:
What I did: since my device got recognized on my win7 x64 (as mtp device,with a yellow ! ,but still worked) I used "adb reboot bootloader" (I'm still locked and stock) to get into the boot loader where you have 3 choices: the "RCK" symbol,the android and the wipe symbol. Since android won't start and RCK (the recovery) results in an error,only thing left was wipe. After that it restored the tablet to jb4.2.2 and I manually Installed the 10.26.1.7 to get jb4.3 back.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Koshara:
OK, after wasting a few hours of my life (restoring all apps/settings/etc.) I'm back at square one - 10.26.1.7 manually installed, Kernel v. 3.4.57 of Nov 8 is back.

IMHO, ASUS was aiming to solve some bugs (i.e. auto brightness) but we all now how that went.

No more auto updates for a while.
[Asus Transformer TF701] stephxxx:
Thanks a lot Lamensis.

I try what you did but adb returned error device not found... so I probably need to find access to the device, it shows "ASUS

Android MTP device" with the yellow !

Well I think I am done for this night... and hope tomorrow new ideas and new solutions will come...Good luck with your devices !

Hope to be in the restored ones :)

Cheers

[Asus Transformer TF701] stephxxx:
In fact I have been able to wipe it too by going into the cold boot option by pressing the power and volume down when shut down :)

2 others options have failed and it restarted and I lost everything but the tablet seems ok... pffffff !!!!!

It have showed me bootloader 1.00 e released by "ww_epad-10.14.1.28-20130827" and now I am back to android 4.2.2 and with build JDQ39.WW_epad-10.14.1.28-20130827 000041_201307100000

I am bit confused with all the updates and just wondering if I should perform any update as of now... what is for you the latest stable build...

BTW from my recent reading, I see many users confirming to do a cold boot after all upgrades... I have never done this in at least the 2-3 upgrade message I got... Are you all performing this ?

Due to this unexpected story... would you have reliable backup method... Maybe I just need to dig in this great forum

Thanks to the great community !!!!

Appreciate your help.

Cheers

[Asus Transformer TF701] xinity:
Same here, tried the latest update (non rooted device), after it restarted, it will never goes up :(

Tried recover mode but it says "update failed"

Haven't tried the full wipe option, I wanted to know if there is another option before losting what's in my device.

Any help appreciated,
[Asus Transformer TF701] Hagarbau:
Fortunately I read this thread before my tablet prompted me to update:D:D

Has anyone reported to ASUS?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Koshara:
I'm afraid there's no other options available in this situation. You will have to wipe your TF701 and you will lose everything that is stored on your internal storage (including music, movies, pictures, etc.)

Recovery failed for everyone who tried.

One could try to push a custom loader, but that is a long shot with no guarantee of success and that will void your warranty.

So, wipe and use backup and keep your info either in the cloud or in external SD card in the future.

I'm reading XDA prior to next updates, that's for sure.
[Asus Transformer TF701] david90531:
Is there a possibility that even after wiping my firmware version is still at 4.3? I have the 10.26.1.18 December 17 (not 18). And also is there a "safe" firmware version right now?
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Triple posting really is excessive!
[Asus Transformer TF701] david90531:
@@ sorry just really wanted to find out what's going on... won't do it again.

I just wanted to see if I can get my tablet to its original factory mode, even if that means I have to do all the updates again..

One of the games that I play ran perfectly before, but now it's choppy, which is weird cuz the other games are fine, so I don't know what could be the cause.. Could it be anything in the settings that I touched accidentally?
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Your game became choppy after updating to 10.26.1.18 or when you updated to 10.26.1.7 already?

The firmware the TF701 was released with was 10.14.1.28 - and that's the version Asus pushed to these poor blokes in Europe today. Applying that "update" resulted in them becoming stuck on the boot screen - so I'm not so sure if you want to give that a try....

If you want to revert to the .7 version (which should be unproblematic since it's also JB 4.3) you can download that firmware from Asus support download page, unzip the file once, copy the resulting zip to your microSD and boot to recovery.

Be prepared to loose all your personal data - so make backups! Different from a OTA update flashing the full firmware usually totally wipes your tablet.

I would start by uninstalling and reinstalling the app...

Naturally you did try a simple reboot, did you?
[Asus Transformer TF701] david90531:
I see. Yeah I never got the 10.14.1.28 one thankfully, but right now I'm on 10.26.1.18 from OTA update (dated Dec 17). I think my game got choppy after that update. So the .7 is the version before that? Is that a stable version? I did already try uninstalling, reinstalling the app and clear cache/data, etc. Also a few reboots and cold reboots.
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
The first JB 4.3 version, released about a month ago if I'm not mistaken, is the .7.

There have been no reports about it being unstable - for what it's worth. I have no idea what changed in the .18 since Asus has not released a change log AFAIK.

I was SO ready to buy this tablet - was practically just waiting for the paycheck - and then the reports about the faulty dock connector started to pour in, and now this.... I'm going to hold off until we have a working recovery and custom rom. Don't want to be dependent on Asus for a $600 investment!
[Asus Transformer TF701] popab:
How did you wiped your tablet ! I need help, I have the same issue there!
[Asus Transformer TF701] Lamensis:
Turn off your tab. Then hold vol.down and power. Then select wipe (2 times vol.down,then 2 times vol.up).that's it :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] popab:
How did you installed it ?I downloaded the firmware but I don't understand how to flash. Please answer, I really need 4.3, beacause on 4.2.2 battery is not that good. Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF701] tozzke:
Extract the zip file downloaded from the Asus website once (still a zip file) into the root of your SD card or internal memory

The tablet will recognize the update and will ask you to perform the update
[Asus Transformer TF701] popab:
Thank you very much! :D
[Asus Transformer TF701] mejogid:
I've now wiped, reinstalled everything, and returned to 10.26.1.7. Now my tablet is once again asking me to update to 10.14.1.28. Am I correct in believing that Asus have not changed anything and this will lead to exactly the same problem? How on earth is it taking Asus so long to fix this? Absolutely mindblowing - I have no idea what the average consumer who doesn't hang around on these forums is doing.
[Asus Transformer TF701] malos1984:
why on earth release an update right before new years and just after Christmas.. serious maybe in a non Christmas celebrating country but WTF...

I`m sure even if they didn`t f up the update file there is always people who have an issue updating and need support when they can`t get any due to the holiday seasons.

Still no update for jp another forum in jp there are people complaining about the lack there of update. most of which are getting over the random reboots.

many sending the device back for full refund.

I`m starting to think asus might cut there losses an abandon this tab.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Nixus_Maximus:
They are sending back their tablets since they do not work any more. There are already the first negative ratings on Amazon's website for this product due to this incident.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sfischer1979:
Answer from Asus

Hi everybody,

I've contacted Asus Support in Germany and finally got an answer. Their solution is to wipe the tablet as described above (i.e. go to bootmenu with "power+Volume down" and select wipe). All the data are lost then of course.

Best regards,

Stefan
[Asus Transformer TF701] xRevilatioNx:
Won't happen. The one constant with Asus, since their inception of the Transformer line, is their amazing track record with OTA firmware support. They won't give up until they have it right.

The only negative is that they never have it right the first time..
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
And they got it right with the TF300 or Tf700 firmware when? ;)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Bjomossin:
European problem, too

I went through the same problems with my TF701 here in Norway :p. After whiping data I am stuck with version 10.14.1.28 and Android 4.2.2. Is it an easy way back to 4.3, anyone? Thanks.

Same problem here in Ukraine. Had to wipe, lost all my data. Now want to update to 10.26.1.18, but no firmware on asus website. Only can update to V10.26.1.7. On 4.2.2 battery life is miserable...
[Asus Transformer TF701] malos1984:
V10.26.1.7 is 4.3
[Asus Transformer TF701] Jana.Velvet:
I had the same issue here in Czech republic. Asus probably pushed wrong firmware OTA, unfortunately I was so naive that I allowed the installation without hesitation, will not do such thing again. Had to wipe the device and lost all data... Now I am running 10.26.1.7.

Until yesterday the tablet kept pushing me to install the incorrect FW but today it stopped. At the download site ASUS now offers 10.26.1.18 for other regions but nothing for WW... So I hope they are working on the WW version now. But I will be very careful about any further updates :rolleyes:

Hello everybody,

I have a Samsung Galaxy W with Cyanogen Mod 10 installed on it, and a Nokia BH-108 Bluetooth Headset.

Since I often need to use Maps or call someone while I'm driving, I'm looking for a way to launch Google Voice when I press the key on my headset. If I press the key twice, it redials the last number in the log, but if I press it once, nothing happens. I tried using the Bluetooth Launch app, but it didn't solve the problem. I know there's a lots of threads on how to launch Google Now from the headset instead of SVoice, but in my case, pressing the button once just won't do anything. In wondered if there was a way to make this work by replacing the double press command, from "Redial" to "Launch Google Voice".

Any help will be appreciated

Sweet wallpaper. ^^ Hm,

Some times a big picture comes along, doesn't really matter. As long as it's not all of the time. At imgur.com, on the right side, you can upload, once you pick the file, before you click "Upload" you can tick "edit" besides the image, and you'll get to another screen once you press upload, there you can say "lock proportions" and then just type in a smaller ress, the other number should then follow. :) But I use photoshop to resize. Never thought of the resizing thing on imgur before now. Pretty handy.
