well first install latest firmware from asus before installing recovery

recovery here http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3223

then put roms you want in the internal storage

and this rom flash B2 first, reboot and then back to recovery then flash B3 Patch
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Which CWM version did you flash? You have to be on the .18 bootloader before you flash CWM 6.0.4.6!

I'm afraid it seems you may have flashed an incompatible recovery for your BL and now the tablet doesn't boot into recovery at all....

The SDupdate method for the firmware would only work if you still had the stock recovery. Or you can flash it in CWM, but it seems you have neither option?

Can't remember right now which CWM version is compatible with the .7 BL and I have to leave...

Find the correct CWM version, flash it in fastboot and pray that it works!

After that you could flash the stock firmware in CWM to get to the correct bootloader, flash CWM 6.0.4.6 and flash this rom.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Calp:
Thanks a lot for your help, mate! I've been able to flash the CWM v6.0.4.5 from here which seems to work (so far).

I am not sure how to flash the firmware in CWM, and since I've already done such a stupid mistake I don't want to try it on my own again.

Is it correct to download the WW_epaduser_10_26_1_18_UpdateLauncher.zip from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2554930 or do I need another file? I suppose this ZIP file must not be flashed directly CWM, so do I have to unzip it first?

Thank you for your kind help!
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Good man! Glad it worked!

Personally I would not download the Asus firmware from a secondary site if it's available on the Asus/support/downloads website. Each download/upload is a slight increase in the risk of getting a corrupt file - why bother?

And yes, you download the UpdateLauncher.zip, extract it once and flash the resulting zip in CWM.

Flashing the full firmware will replace CWM with the stock recovery, so you have to flash CWM 6.0.4.6 afterwards.

sbdags,

How are you? Long time, no talk! :)

I haven't been able to use my Tablet in quite some time and now can once again. But there is one thing I forgot about your ROM (I did look on my Tablet before asking, but didn't find anything);

Does this ROM have a Kernel that allows for OverClocking? And if so, did you install an OverClocking utility within the ROM? Or should I just use SetCPU or something?

I apologize for bothering you with this after all this time, seriously!

Oh btw, did the KitKat ROM you were thinking about ever come out? I'd be interested, if so! I didn't find it in a search, but I could have missed it. :)

Thanks!!!
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
No it doesn't support OC'ing unfortunately - but there are lots of tweaks applied to help out.

Yes there is a Kitkat version of CROMi-X 7 in the dev forum :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Okay, thank you for replying so quickly!

Your ROM is fast and smooth, I wasn't implying otherwise, of course. I just figured if it was available, then I would utilize it.

I'll hunt around for that KK forum and see if I can find it, thanks! :)

The only problem I've ever had with the JB ROM, is that when my Tablet starts up (and sometimes doing other stuff, like uninstalling an app), a small box pops up that says; "System UI has stopped". I couldn't find what was doing it and it seems to run okay after I tap to close the message, so while I had investigated it, I didn't go crazy.

I'm sure it'll go away if I upgrade to the KK ROM. :)

Btw, if you're not already aware, you can write to the External Storage under KK, after you run the "SD Fix" patch. Just FYI.

That patch is built into my KK rom ;) It is only one line of code :)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Zeuszoos:
Oh, cool! I'll definitely track down your ROM! :)

I'm assuming since it's still the same Custom ROM (except for going to KK), that it'll go right over the old one. I'll back up just before, so I'll definitely try it and let you know. :)

It's still that "DeOdexed" or whatever it's called format like this one, right?

I'm gonna try to find it right now. I'm on my phone (disabled and in bed), so it isn't like having it laid out on a big screen in "Desktop Mode", but I'll find it! <lol>

So I can just take that Flashable Zip for the BootLoader & CWM and on my Tablet, use my current CWM to Flash it and when I reboot, JB will still be running fine, but I will now have the latest BootLoader and my CWM will be at 6.0.5.1?

Just want to make sure I read it right. :)

I didn't read about installing the ROM yet. It has to either be a Flashable Zip, or an Odin install. Whichever way allows me to install it without losing all my stuff. :)

Well there is always a chance that you can't dirty flash the rom but yes technically it should go fine. Flash the bootloader and latest cwm as you said, then reboot and flash the rom. Odin is for samsung only devices so throw those memories away ;)

I like to ask questions, just to make sure that I understand things correctly. And I'm not trying to patronize you now, but I have to also compliment you on how well you lay out procedure in your OP's! :)

Thank you so much for all of your kindness! You truly are a top level developer! I mean that! And please let me know about any apps you develop. I'd love to support your efforts (test on my devices, purchase pro versions, etc)!

Just a quick one?

If I want to revert from 7.0 to this ROM do I need to revert to a different bootloader first? If so which one and how?

Thanks in advance.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
You shouldn't need to downgrade the bootloader.

But you probably will need to do a full wipe as you are going from Kitkat to JellyBean.

Can I ask why you want to go back to JB?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Revhead:
Just experimenting.

I get the dock not reading my SD card problem on 7.0 and 7.0.3.

I just wanted to see whether it also happened on 6.1 which I have never used.

I have tried wiping and reinstalling and reformatting the card as well as other cards but it always returns.

Not ready to try Lollipop yet - too many bugs this early in the piece.

Is there a definitive test to tell whether it is the dock itself?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Try another card. Write down the test in Q&A and see if another can test their card.

It is most likely to be your card but can't say really without you testing all scenarios.

Hi,

I'm running the CROMi-X V6.1 [JB 4.3] ROM (Rooted) on my;

Asus Transformer TF701T Tablet

For some reason, yesterday, it started reporting a way off amount of Free Space! It says that I only have 333 MB, when I know that I have Gigs free!

I found this out, when I started getting an "Insufficient Space" message in the Google Play Store, when trying to update an app.

So I checked in my device's Settings and the storage being reported, shows only 333 MB of Free Space (the Total Space is correct though).

I ran "Storage Analyzer" and it says that I have over 5 GB of Free Space, which is about right.

All is fine with Total & Free Space on the External SD Card.

Has anyone ever seen this before? Is there a fix for this? I don'y know if this is just something/some file corrupted in/on my Tablet, or if it is an error that is related to this ROM that creeps up and happens just every once in a blue moon. But I have run this ROM for a long time now and I haven't had any problems at all with it. But then again, the device itself isn't known for this issue either. :)

If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it!!!

Thank You!

Any idea what I'm messing up this time?

Edit: When I boot up the tablet, the system recognizes the mentioned .zip file from the internal storage as a system update package and asks whether I want to install it - Shall I? Or is this file supposed to be flashed with cwm only?
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
That is a very interesting question. But you answered one question I had a little while back, namely if the stock system would still recognize an update file with a custom recovery installed. You could try it, but I think it would fail since the firmware would try to start the (stock) recovery to flash the update, which isn't there...

Which option in CWM did you choose when you flashed the firmware zip? I don't quite recollect how CWM works and don't have it installed on any of my devices at the moment....

Did you choose: "Install zip from sdcard" or something to that effect?

Lost 4GB of free space after flashing

I actually noticed this anomaly when I originally installed sbdags' Stock Rooted Rom. I did a full factory reset and flashed the ROM and when I got into it I noticed the pad was reporting roughly 4GB less free space than what I had before flashing. This has happened with both ROM installations (ASUS Stock Rooted and Cromi-X6b3) but I'm wondering if it's actually something CWM is causing. I noticed the missing 5GB and of course went looking for it. The only place where I can see where it went is in the DiskUsage app and what I'm seeing is an area just above free space named System Data. It's the same green color as the free space representation and it's 4153MB. It doesn't show up as a partition or folder in any other app, and it doesn't appear to be usable in any way.

The first time it happened with the Stock Rooted Rom I tried to recover the space by doing a factory reset from within the ROM, but it didn't change anything. I did a reset wipe from within CWM and that didn't change anything. Not until I wiped everything I could from within CWM did I see that data recovered. I then re-flashed the stock ROM from Asus and everything was good. And now, here I am again with 4GB of free space missing. I'm wondering if doing the factory wipe from within CWM is somehow creating this system data partition because the system partition wasn't automatically mounted? When trying to fix the thing and re-install the ASUS ROM, I had to specifically mount two partitions before I could push the ROM from my PC to the tab. Was I supposed to manually mount partitions before wiping? Is it possible this is happening to more of us and I'm just the first one to notice?

The only way I can think to recover that space is to wipe everything again and re-flash Cromi-X. So if anyone has any ideas that can help me avoid all that, I would appreciate it. Also, you may want to check and make sure you're not missing any of your free space!
[Asus Transformer TF701] Calp:
In fact, it did load the cwm recovery by choosing the firmware update, however, the same error errupted.

I myself chose "Install zip" -> "choose zip from /sdcard" in CWM. Do you have any idea what the error code could stand for?

Do you think it would help to change the ro.product.device and the ro.build.product attributes manually?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
The error is because you are trying to flash the official rom from CWM. Asus put a little check in there to see if you are on the stock rom and your not so it fails.

You'll need to edit the updater-script yourself and delete the first 2 lines :

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "K00C" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "K00C");
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
I came to the same conclusion googling that error. But you meant to say to just delete the first two lines, right?

The "with" suggest to replace them with something??? [MENTION=3723666]Calp[/MENTION] You'll find the updater script by unzipping the firmware file and then look in META-INF/com/google/android

Man! I am itching to unlock this thing! :eek:

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
I've just checked mine and I don't have this issue:

I have a total of 25873MiB which is 32GB. Not sure why you have 5GB missing - see my screen shot. Maybe post yours. I can only think you have mounted an extra partition somehow?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Yes I meant delete those lines - stealth edit :)

UNLOCK UNLOCK UNLOCK UNLOCK :cowboy:
[Asus Transformer TF701] Aaroneious:
Actually you do, it's green, it says "System Data". I didn't have that before doing the wipe in CWM, it doesn't seem to be accessible or used or anything. Yours is a little over 2 gigs, mine is 4. I didn't say I was missing data or storage, I'm missing free space. My reported free space went down by the same size that System Data partition is.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Calp:
I did what you told me to and tried to flash the modified zip file. It did indeed start the installing process ('Installing update...') and nothing happend for a minute or two, then it gave out:

script aborted (no error message)E:Error in /data/media/0/UL-K00C....-user.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

I suppose this doesn't help much, does it?

Edit: When I choose to exit the CWM recovery it states "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot." - Do you think it's worth to try not to fix this? I mean, is it possible that the stock recovery has been installed successfully?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Now you have to go to Advanced in cwm and it will tell you why if you select view logs.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
I think you are confusing yourself :)

That system data block includes any clockwork mod nandroid backups you have taken. My guess is you did two ;) Problem solved my dear Watson.

They are in /data/media/clockworkmod btw. :D
[Asus Transformer TF701] Calp:
Well, I accidently quit the recovery and rebooted the system. Then it did finish the firmware update (updating apps, preparing the system etc); it seems as if the firmware update had been succesful. I'll try to flash the CWM version for v18 now.

Edit: Okay, the bootloader say it's still the v7.. So I shouldn't consider flashing the new CWM version yet. I'll try to flash the v18 update again and post the log then.

[Asus Transformer TF701] Aaroneious:
I am an idiot. Forgive me.

Ha! I think I might be an idiot. It's the damn nandroid taking up hidden space somewhere. I forgot I did a nandroid backup before I flashed - that would be roughly 4GB or so. I feel so stupid. Can we just pretend this never happened? You know, just keep it to ourselves?.:silly: Nothing to see here, people, let's move along please. Can I thank myself for figuring it out before I went and did anything drastic?

Thanks for making the rom on the tf701. Recently moved from a tf700 with cromi-x!

Im having some problems with the wi-fi on the rom, it keeps dropping out. Read in another thread that other people were having problems with wifi in the latest 10.26.1.18 so the downgraded. So its not the roms fault, is it possible to make a flashable zip where we use the old wi-fi drivers or so?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
You'll be waiting a long time then. Looks like the current cwm you have doesn't understand nv_copy_blob_file which is the instruction to update the bootloader I'm afraid.

I'll see if I can make a boot loader and cwm flashable zip from any recovery. However I'm nervous as I don't like testing stuff like this without nvfkash backups. It'll be tomorrow now as getting late here.

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Flashing to staging puts the blob file into the staging partition. Next time the device reboots the boot loader sees the blob and unpacks it and flashes the necessary partitions. Typically a blob can contain updates for the recovery, boot, system, kernel.....

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Yes post 71 with the correction of post 72 is how you would do it. However that blob just contains the boot loader. Is that what you want. The blob is in the latest firmware upgrade zip from Asus.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Calp:
Well, I suppose that I have to install the boot loader v18 in order to flash the proper CWM version, ye.

Just to go sure:

- I unzip the newest firmware update WW_epaduser_10_26_1_18_UpdateLauncher.zip to get UL-K00C-WW-10.26.1.18-user.zip

- I extract both the boot.img and the blob file from UL-K00C-WW-10.26.1.18-user.zip and put them in the folder from where I start fastboot

- I boot into bootloader and insert the following commands one by one:

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 erase boot

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 erase system

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 -w

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 format system

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash boot boot.img then

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash system UL-K00C-WW-10.26.1.18-user.zip

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot-bootloader

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery recovery.img (which is the CWM for the v18 bootloader then)

According to lpdunwell in post 72, I only need those commands, though:

*** fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob

*** fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (CWM for v18 BL?)

*** fastboot reboot-bootloader

--> So I wouldn't have to erase/format anything in version two, plus I'd only install the recovery and no system. Which way would you suggest?

Edit: I just flashed the UL-K00C-WW.10.26.1.7-user.zip (v7!) with CWM recovery (I deleted " assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "K00C" ||

getprop("ro.build.product") == "K00C"); " before in order to be able to flash it), same error message popped up (of course) but it seems like it reversed the (partly) flashing of v18-user.zip which I did yesterday. So for now I can boot up the pad completely and use it normally. I will wait to fix the bootloader/recovery issue until you gave me instructions. :) Thanks guys!
