[Asus Transformer TF700] wackaman:
Hello Friends and first I have to say sorry for my english.

OK, I try to tell whats happend.

2 Days ago I would like to flash a new rom on tf700t. For that it was neccessary to change from TeamWinRecovery to ClockworkModRecovery.

To do this at the easiest way, I have done this Job with the Rom Manager App.

That was my first error.

After Installing I reboot my tf700 and was surprised, TeamWin was still there...

Ok I have created a full backup, after that I performed a full wipe.

After that I have rebootet again, but know TeamWin was not there anymore, Clockworkmod was also not not there.

Booting with Power + Vol Down Fastboot mode is starting (I think so) 3 Symbols in the Middle.

Starting RCK Mode, but nothing happens, only a text left above, Recovey Rom is loading (or somthing like that)

Booting with Power + Vol Up APX Mode is running. Black Screen and Pong on my PC. Nvidia Driver installed.

OK later, verry late at night I have by mistake Used The Wipe Button, I dont wont to do that but I have pressed the wrong button.

Now the follow things happend by Booting.

Only Presss Power:

Tab is starting to Asus Logo in the middle, in the left corner abowe The Device Is Unlockes. Nothing else happens.

Press and hold Power and Vol down: The same like above No Pong on PC, the same screen like starting the tab normaly.

Press and hold Power and Vol up: APX Mode ist starting.

I have many Full Backups TWRP.

I have the Stock Asus Rum on SD Card.

I have the nvflash Package for my tf700t.

I have the flatlinetf700t.img

And many other files.

Oh I dont have createt bevor any blop files.

What I will ask you is: Is it possible to repair the Tab by using nvflash?

I think the bootloader is defect...

What is needed for that
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Not without the blobs.

"Wipe data" + broken recovery + no blobs for nvflash = hard brick. There is no known fix.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wackaman:
Is it possible tu use blob files from an other tf700t 64gb??

I have here a original asus tf700 Stock rom, wich I have full extracted twice. So now I have the rom as a blob file wich was in the zip. 800 MB.

What can I do with that file?

Here I found something to use the android toolkit but it cant work, there is no fastboot mode anymore. If I try to use fastboot, power and Vol down, nothing happens, there is no device installed at pc, only in adb mode, but android toolkit could not handle adb mode.

Read

Last hope is to use some other blob files..

Whats about RMA? Prices for that job?

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You need the blob files from your device. They store keys particular to yours. When you started the nvflash process it sounds like you never completed it. That means you have no means of recovering.

List the files you have.

RMA will set you back between 200 to 300 dollars but ask Asus for a quote. You might be better off selling it for parts and getting something newer.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wackaman:
What I have is all from here, means the nvflash files for my tf700t.

I also have the original asus stock rom for my device and some other roms, twrp backups and so on...

The most is not usable while there is no fastboot / adb mode possible.

I have never read something about some blob files needed for other devices...

I dont understand what for blob files I need to bring recovery back. Thats all I want to have.

I tried to flash via nvflash the stock asus extracted till to a blob file. I remember nvflash wrote than somewhat like, no blob files found...

Maybe its really time to say goodby to this ....
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
If you followed the instructions on that page including the wheelie part to extract and save your blobs then your device is salvageable. The question is did you?

If yes you can use this guide to restore.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1927818&highlight=nvflash

If no, sell the device for parts as it is dead.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wackaman:
Thanks again.

I have asked Asus for Support and I post again after an answer from asus.

**** happens. That with the strongly recommed to do to make this device bricksave has to be placed on every first sites about this Thing.

Are there more devices who needs those files (means blobs)
[Asus Transformer TF700] graphdarnell:
Get a used motherboard on Ebay and replace it yourself. Sure to revive your darn tab for much less. What is it an Asus technician can do that you can't? It ain't rocket science after all. Go to this site and learn how to take it apart.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wackaman:
I dont know, what asus can do...

I have now looked many days for a mainboard for my device. Only 32GB Version are listet by ebay.

Maybe I have to wait...
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Asus will do nothing other than charge you hundreds of dollars to replace the main board.
[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
Since you are giving up and looking for a new mother board, you can PM and we could try a few different things to see if we could wake it up...:) If you have some spare time to waste then you could give it a shot, hahaha....;)

Hi there everyone,

A neighbor brought me this tablet he bought on black friday. It's stuck on the Android Logo. It's a QFX IT-437.

Physically looks just like that RCA tablet that was on sale on black friday as well. The difference is that this one doesn't have volume buttons. Only power button. I've searched everywhere and all tutorials I find say that to reset I have to press a volume button that this one doesn't have. It does have a reset button but it doesn't fix anything it only does a fast restart. Any suggestions ?

This is a untested build because I do not know anyone with the TX, it should work fine.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] deadman96385:
Mine just in case
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] caer_ayu:
Sorry, but how to turn off touch by cursor and use just normal touch ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Leo:
do it like that of cm11
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] caer_ayu:
But I didn't even know how to turn it off on cm11 ..this rom is just too amazing not to use

Do you know how to change it? ..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Shobr:
Does this rom stable to use ??
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] caer_ayu:
don't know yet ..i'm still waiting for the touch setting solution then i will use this for a long term then
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
In /system/usr/idc there is a file named "sensor00_f11_sensor0.idc" (or something like that). Rename it to "clearpad.idc", and reboot.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
Testing so far. Boots fine, but I'm mainly interested in seeing if it has the same kernel bug as FXP's CM11/10.2/10.1 which prevent the phone from sleeping.

Another thing I've noticed is that both this ROM and CM ROMs check for the device product/name in the updater-script before flashing, and in every case I've had to erase those initial lines because the phone name never matches. I've tested coming from an Official USA FTF, so I think maybe there should be more checking options or remove it altogether, because odds are it won't match, depending on the ROM you're coming from.

EDIT:

Not the exact same wakelocks as in CM11, but still nasty. On the initial boot I couldn't turn GPS off, it apparently turned off eventually, but I'm quite sure it's what caused that wakelock.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
So, to follow up, it does have the exact same problem as FXP's CM ROMs, with the exact same wakelocks. I might add, this happens only on WiFi, as can be seen in the attached screenshots.

If you have any suggestions and/or fixes I'll be glad to help with tests.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] caer_ayu:
thank you very much ..it worked ..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] deadman96385:
Thank you for these i will work to fix them, but for the time being try and use the wakelock blocker and see how it goes with that.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
That would be ideal if it weren't for the fact that those wakelocks aren't detected by Wakelock Blocker. ;) If you think of anything else, LMK.

EDIT: Attached are logs I pulled with BBS after flashing again in order to confirm whether those wakelocks are detected by Wakelock Blocker. Maybe I should have pulled a proper logcat/dmesg...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
GPS is not working in CM11(the symptom is exactly the same as members have mentioned above - cannot turn Location Info off and an awful wakelock appears)but if you replace the folder kernel/arch/arm/mach-msm with OmniROM's and then re-compile the kernel,GPS will work,and the GpsLocationProvider wakelock disappears,you can also turn Location Info off at once.I don't know which file in that folder caused this...There are so many differences in the files.Maybe some SMD/RPC/NMEA related files are the ones to blame?(JUST GUESSING)

And one another problem:after turning off the screen,surfaceflinger will start to eat CPU(50% usage,see in adb shell - top) and comsumes a lot of energy.Strace its threads and I found only one thread is doing system calls(doing really frequently...What's that?Software simulated VSYNC?).If the screen is on,the process behaves normally.The dirty fix for GPS doesn't work for this...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
Did you happen to test this with WiFi on? The reason I ask is because, as I stated before, while the screen is off and WiFi is on, there is something keeping the CPU active, for at least half of the time the screen is off.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
Maybe it's just the crazy surfaceflinger?Persistent 50% CPU usage is a nightmare for battery...And whether WiFi is on doesn't matter.It's JUST driving the CPU and killing the battery.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
I tested it this afternoon.The outcome is the same as I predicted:after the screen is turned off,surfaceflinger eats CPU (and since it's a kernel process,it doesn't need to hold a wakelock to run while screen is off - just like adbd)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
Well, then it would seem that there are two different issues, which might be phone specific(?). In my case, I know for a fact how to stop the CPU usage while screen is off and stop the battery drain, which is turn off WiFi. What I don't get is what does the "mmc1_detect" wakelock have to do with WiFi anyway. The other wakelock, "suspend_backoff" does actually seem related to WiFi:

The problem is FXP ROMs, as with this LS, don't come with Chrome installed; and I've already seen it get fixed by turning WiFi off.

Of course, that doesn't seem to have to do anything with Surfaceflinger, at least not in my case (although, I didn't check, but would be good if I flash FXP or LS again), and if other people aren't getting the same battery drain under the same conditions as I am (i.e., they can use WiFi normally without having the same nasty battery drain and/or same wakelocks), then it would seem the ROM is sort of choosy when it comes to the phones it's installed on. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] updateing:
On my phone,turning off WiFi doesn't reduce CPU usage.I can see in System Tuner Pro that it's running.And while the screen is on,CPU usage is also high,nearly ~80% all the time...

Another interesting thing:if you make a kernel with OmniROM's zImage and LS/CM's ramdisk,the phone can boot with no screen display(display driver mismatch?Surfaceflinger should be working though).But in DDMS you can see GPS is working correctly and off-screen CPU usage is normal...

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobilefarmer:
I tried to install CWM in my rooted G2 F320S by following this thread. It seemed successful because after a reboot it entered the CWM recovery mode.

Then, I used the "backup" function inside. After the process, it automatically rebooted.

But then problem appeared. It stuck on the LG logo screen.

And I tried to enter download mode but it stuck on the loading screen (a small frame with 2 figures, a word"download mode" and some blue dots) instead of entering into the recovery mode screen (a word "firmware update" at the top and a circulation of 2 arrows in the center).

The problem is it doesn't not automatically enter the fastboot mode so I even cannot tried the method from the thread to repair the recovery mode.

What could I do now? How to get the phone into recovery mode or fastboot mode?Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jmdrizen:
Is there any difference between the "Searching ..." and the "No Signal [!]" ?

When on the train in tunnels the device rightly goes to "Searching ..." while you'd expect there to be no signal, then when I hear other people on their phone, mine's displaying [!] with "No Signal" Why? Is there anything that I can do to make the device connect faster?

I've set the device from Auto to GSM in the Settings > Phone > Band, which has helped a bit...

Is there anything else?

Regards.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Triband81:
Theoretically, there is a slight difference since "Searching" means that the PPC is actively searching for a signal and "No signal" simply means that the PPC is traveling through an area where there is no tower for it to connect to. It depends on how well your provider has covered that problematic area. As far as I know, there is no direct way to influence the search speed for a network. This is possible on handsets from Motorola for example.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] hanmin:
Don't think there is any way of getting better reception unless you get yourself an external antenna. The signal strength depends on a few matters. First it is the service provider (e.g the phone company). The guy with the phone ringing might have a provider whom coincidently has a signal tower much nearer to the tunnel compare to yours.

2nd, there is a matter of phone. Each phone receptions are different. Not just PPC based. Some said that the Sony's older model has very bad reception and some said Nokia / Motorolla has very good receptions. It depends on model and company I guess. There isn't really much you can do about it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xqizit:
I think a lot of it has to do with your device trying to save power.

I work in an office where I have no reception, so basically all day my phone says "no service" however there is full reception right outside my building.

When i leave the building, i dont automatically get reception and sometimes it can take 5 or so minutes to get it.

I think the phone must go into some sort of battery save mode whereby after a certain time of having no reception, it increases the time between checks for reception.

This i find is very very annoying and most times i have to turn flight mode on and off.

This problem was even worse when I had the xda II.

Do any of you find you have this problem too?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beaujack:
I found the answer to this dilemma in a phone forum but I can't find it again. I got the 'insufficient storage error' when Kindle, Facebook and Angry Birds Rio were updating. The post I allude to pointed to root/data/app-lib. I used Root Explorer to delete files I felt were duplicated, choosing the older of the two. I wish I could thank that phone guy, but a search doesn't turn it up again. Also the threads that popped up when I began this one were not of use. I guess I was just lucky. The Nook HD+ forums don't seem to have had the issue. Thanks to all.:D

[Nexus 5 General] JordanRulz:
I think it's just the auto white balance adjusting for the lighting conditions. That's a camera issue, not a display issue.

adjust some settings in your camera app, its way off! unless you already adjusted them to look like this, then youre way off ;)
[Nexus 5 General] biggiestuff:
Okay i'll try it again with my qx100. Your reasoning makes sense.
[Nexus 5 General] m52 power!:
Your logic is flawed. Nobody said the camera had perfect color reproduction.
[Nexus 5 General] Citizen_Snips:
Funny enough, I thought the same about the display. It actually really bothers me. I came from a Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA). I had a couple short 1080p HD videos that I would play on that phone. Just like HD test videos. They looked great on that screen. So sharp and the color looked great on max brightness. The brighter the screen got the better the picture looked.

On this phone those same videos and others, too, look kind of grainy. Like the display should be a little smaller to get that sharp, crisp look. Turning the brightness all the way up just makes the grainy effect even worse. All of my HD videos have the same effect / look. I even turned on all of the warranty replacements I got. Same on 4 handsets. Kinda disappointed in the screen in that sense, but hey the phone was cheap.
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
thats because samsung uses samoled screens. yes they are vivid and full of color, but they are more vivid and more colorful than in real life. where the n5 screen colors are more true to the colors in reality.
[Nexus 5 General] marleyfan61:
Agreed. It's just unfortunate that real life sucks.
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
I think this is a pointless thread:rolleyes:

Flash Franco's kernel and adjust the color reproduction of your screen as per your liking..

Topic closed..
[Nexus 5 General] Citizen_Snips:
You forgot to close the topic, Mr. Mod. I can still post.

If that's the case, maybe they should use the same kind of screen. My GNex was beautiful and I miss it. This display is just sub-par now that I really think about it. Comparing side by side with the HD videos...this is sad. Still love my N5, but I really miss that old screen. The N5 would have killed if it was the same

Edit: @ tech. Shutup lawlz, changing my gamma values, etc. Won't fix the grainy issue. Troll :confused:
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Dont know about your N5 but my display is same as a HTC One ..and similar to my iPhone 5 as well ..coz ppi> 300 is all the same to naked eyes..

And if u r in love in with those pathetic over saturated amoled screens then nobody can help you..U should switch to a S4 or Note 3 or S5(will be unveiled tomorrow) as soon as possible..
[Nexus 5 General] _MetalHead_:
I agree, accurate or not it's not a very good looking screen. On my computer monitor or TV I'll take accurate colors, but on my smartphone I much prefer bright, vivid colors. I really think LG/Google and N5 fanboys use "accuracy" as an excuse for such a subpar display. Between the washed out colors and poor viewing angles, it's easily the biggest disappointment with the N5.
[Nexus 5 General] Citizen_Snips:
Um not visible to the naked eye? Actually it is. I notice it. With my eyes. SMH lol. Why do some people argue JUST to argue? There is a noticeable difference to the naked eye 100%.

Just because you never used the screen, or are a huge fanboy isn't my problem. My Gnex (like 3 years old) displays HD videos as sharply as my 70" smart TV. My N5 (new) doesn't even come close. It looks grainy and pixelated.
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
I think u dont know anything about displays ..and I hope you are not comparing a HD video..hope those are "Full HD" videos ..

And one of the best hardware review site said this about the display of N5 ..Now I dont know whether YOU are more intelligent and knowledgeable or the guys at Anandtech... The problem is that u were using a phone thats generations old now

.and here is the review..a part of it:
