[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadshawki:
Hello everyone. I have Katkiss Kitkat #19 and TWRP recovery 6.something but I can't remember which. Anyway, I use to reboot into recovery by holding down the Volume down, then press Volume up when prompted to get into recovery. Now the power and volume buttons are completely busted. I can't press any of them. And I need to go into recovery to flash the new Rom.

So, here is what I tried:

1. Rom Toolbox. I tried to "Reboot into recovery" option but it just reboots the ddevice.

2. Terminal emulator: su reboot recovery, it says reboot: no such order

3. Tried to hook it to my laptop and use ADB, but no devices attached. I have Windows 8.1 64 bit. I have Android drivers installed and in the device manager it say Asus ADB and it shows Asus in the "safely remove" but I still can't see it in the My computer. I have USB debugging on and it asked me to allow my laptop keys and I agreed. Still, ADB doesn't work.

I don't know what else can I do. I can't go into recovery, bootloader or APX mode without the power and volume buttons. Is there anything i can do, or am I stuck here?

Any help will be greatly appreciated...:crying:

There's a few different apps that let you boot to recovery

When you say the power and volume buttons are completely busted, have you tried taking the plastic bezel off and pressing the micro buttons under the normal silver ones ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadshawki:
I tried the first one and six from the second link and none of them work. Actually, when I was installing Xposed, I pressed reboot, but it said Reboot: No such tool. I don't know what's going on.

The problem with the power button is that my kid dropped the tablet many times and it got so many dents, so I took of the casing (or whatever it's called0 and then straightened it out, out the buttons in their places and then glued it in place. Now it's really hard to press the power button (the one underneath) but it works. But how can I do that every time I want to power off or reboot into recovery, specially if there is a boot loop. I can't do anything except pressing the power button.

That's why I wanted an easy solution at least to reboot recovery.

May be I should take off the casing one more time and try to fix the power and volume buttons one more time.

I just want to thank you for your super fast reply and taking the time to find those apps.

Thanks a lot...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aliante:
In the past, while still on stock ROM,I have been using this tool to overcome the missing "reboot to recovery" option in the regular Asus power menu: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.transformer.recovery

Now I have tested it on KK #19 and this tool apparently does not reboot the tablet BUT:

when I run this tool and then reboot the tablet normally (with the power menu...) I get into recovery.

So if you are already able to reboot normally through Rom Toolbox you might try to run this one first before rebooting with Rom Toolbox.

NOTE I imagine you are perfectly aware that you are playing with fire here.

In case your tablet gets into a boot-loop while installing the new ROM, you might end up with a useless tablet. Is it really worth the risk?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadshawki:
OK, you did it. You got me scared, so I separated the casing in the power button part and clicked on the original button with a small screwdriver and it worked. Also the volume buttons. Now I don't know what to do. May be the buttons are broken from the inside. I'll try to see if those are sold on ebay or something. If not, I'll try to attach something to them from the underside.

Anyway, I'm really grateful that you made me take this step. I'll fix it tomorrow first thing in the morning. Well, we both know I'm not gonna sleep until I get it fixed, hahaha.

Again, thanks a lot...

What exactly are the consequences of tripping Knox? Is it just a tattle tale system, or are there real restrictions in place?

Basically yes. Voids warranty. On other devices root has been achieved without tripping Knox.

Doesn't affect the device working. Just trips flag. So no use if hardware failure to turn it back for work.

Chain fires method works. Just asking if alternate method was avail is all

from what I understand, its not the root its self that trips knox,

the cf auto-root also flashes a custom recovery, and that is what trips knox.

I would like to see root that only does root and not anything else, at least give use the option the do either one.

But I do appreciate all that these devs do, cause without them we wouldnt have these.

All you guys are awesome, and thankyou for the things you do. :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backb0ne5p1d0r:
Dude don't talk about things you don't know. Your thread is completely pointless and wrong. It is possible to fully brick a phone. I once bricked an Xperia Play and it couldn't get fixed using anything. Not even using medusa box and other boxes. I was using the flashtool and then i disconnected the device by a mistake and it got fully bricked. Totally unfixable.

And I bricked my HTC One X+. Flashed many many ROMs till my internal sdcard died. I had to get the motherboard replace.

Ohh and have you ever tried to fix Chinese devices?? MANY Chinese devices are brickable even when you have the original firmware. Some devices can't even be revived using dragon box.

So again, your post is wrong.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] evilwise:
I've screwed up the multi-jacks on two separate motherboards now by using the HK sync cable from eBay. It just puts too much stress on the jack. Today I found a real sync cable at a flea market but I seem to have permanently fried the current motherboard because no matter how carefully I reattach it, I get a constant red light from the R/O/G led.

So I need a T-Mobile motherboard (or any motherboard that will work with a Cingular US connection, if there is one). Does anyone in the US have one to sell me? I have a spare battery/back cover component that should work fine or a Nokia NGage to trade or can pay cash.

Help me out here, don't know if I can wait for another broken screen unit to turn up on eBay at a reasonable price. Thanks!

Otherwise do some Google searching and a bunch of reading about setting up and using ADB. I know this method is a far cry from the one click methods we're used to. It can be quite difficult and, at times, time consuming. Its not rocket science though. With some patience and reading you can get through it. Also it may be more productive for you to ask something more specific...ie

"I did X...expecting Y....but Z happened. What did I do wrong?"

I'm really not trying to be a d!@k or anything. Just trying to point you in the right direction.

If you take the 4.4 update, you won't be able to root in the future.

What do u think mates?Is this a phone that just seems good when you firs got it?

My review about this phone is(cingular 8125)I've been using it for a month now.

keyboard got a lit' bit loose..

Poor battery life.(1day at most)

and it keeps dialing the last call while in my pocket in case i forgot the lock it:)lol(btw is there any autolock program for wizard)

Cheers :lol:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Thomas1234:
Hi Mate,

I have it just for 3 days now :), but I wanted to ask you, how can I lock the keypad when I put it in my pocket to avoid dialing by itself by accident ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Edyhan:
i'm using the regular wi5 lock button at the today screen but there are some programs that allows you to choose a hard button and use it as a lock

but im looking for an autolock:)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] KINetics:
Well, since its going into your pocket and you won't need the screen, can't you just hit the power button once to make it go into standby mode. Two benefits, you save battery, and lock the phone (only a press of the power key unlocks it again). In standby, you will still receive phone calls and get email (if its set to poll every XX mnutes, dunno about push email). The only downside to using the power button as a keylock is if you're using the wizard as mp3 player or something becuase standby causes the app to stop.

There's a cab out there that allows you to map the key lock to a button, I forgot what thread its in. I've got keylock mapped to the voice record button (hold). It works well.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Thomas1234:
Thanks Edyhan, I thought that this Lock is to lock the PPC and give it a password so that nobody can use it without knowing the Password :) well I am very new with this Pocket PCs, I am still figuring out the beauty.

KINetics, thanks for your reply, I know about the Power button, but it can b pushed - accidently - too then your PPC gonna do some jobs while it is in your Pocket, this is why Locking the buttons is the best solution.

But I really don't need any other apps just to lock the keys, as long as there is a Lock already in the WM5.

I wish the Wizard owners answer the main question of the Thread Starter :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] markgamber:
I got the tmo mda the day it was available in the US and I like it a lot more now than when I got it. I can't say my keyboard has come loose but it does seem to close with less than a snap now and then. Still, it seems to work fine, as does the phone, so I'm not concerned.

The custom 2.17 rom available on this site seems to work wonders for battery life. When using the stock tmo rom, battery life was a couple days. With the 2.17 rom, it takes 3 days to hit 50%. Your mileage may vary, of course, but it added a couple extra days for me. I've since gotten a battery that's about twice as large (needs a custom backplate for the phone) and it seems to last forever but I haven't measured the time.

Finally, I agree with the above. I hit the power button before putting it in my pocket and it's never once dialed on it's own. I also discovered the secret of hitting the power button after I call or answer the phone. That prevents random screen frenzy from your face as you talk. :)

I had a Blue Angel phone before the mda and I really liked that phone a lot. It had a larger screen and was much faster but...the mda had WM5 and the BA was 2003SE. Eventually I learned that there's a different "rhythm" to using the mda and once I found it, I stopped overclocking and now I think it's an awesome phone.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] PJDelaney:
For locking the Wizard I normally use a combination of both lock and standby, ty hat way if the power button does get pressed in pocket (which has happened on a couple of occasion) the screen comes on but the pad is still locked.

I've owned mine since January and have been more than happy with it, sure its bigger than my old Orange C500 but it does way more too! only got around to hard reset it the other day to wipe off the T Mobile due to having so much installed on it, tis faster now tho. Overall a great phone, even my stylis still stays in tho it doesn't extend when u pull it out anymore.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ToTTenTranz:
Hi,

I've been looking for a solution to use a dedicated USB soundcard with my TF700, because the sound quality from the 3,5mm analog out isn't loud enough, the quality isn't great and I hear lots of intermittent "hiss" noises when I'm watching movies with DTS sound (whatever the video player I use).

The main problem is the loudness, since I'd like to use the tablet to watch videos i.e. in a plane.

I was thinking of an external USB soundcard like the Asus Xonar U1 or U3 to connect to the dock's USB, but I'd like to know if anyone has tried it before.

Preferably, I'd like something with a dedicated headphone amp.

I have a HiFimeDIY Sabre DAC that kind of works when I plug it in the dock, I hear sounds but with lots of popping and cracking.

Using the USB Audio Player I could make the tablet work correctly with the DAC, but that one only works for music, and their custom driver doesn't work with other apps.

Any help?

(sorry if I posted in the wrong section)
[Asus Transformer TF700] ToTTenTranz:
An update:

I went to a store and tried a Xonar U3 connected to a TF700+dock. Same thing as with the Sabre DAC I tried earlier.

Whenever I play something, the sound is "recognizable", but it's mostly made of popping and cracking.

It sounds the same as is I was used the Audio Player before applying the proper settings (force 1-bit, 16bit sampling, 4k buffer).

This seems to be a driver issue. I heard Samsung phones/tablets work flawlessly with most external USB DACs, so this is a real shame.

Use BetterBatteryStats to find your wakelocks and eliminate them.
