Hi guys... I'm trying to manually update from 5.0 to 5.0.1 (firmware downloaded from ASUS).

I tried 2 methods:

1) Unbrick mode suggested by [MENTION=4488740]slayeralive[/MENTION], but after inputing the adb commands my tablet reboots and only displays the usual screen with the options "NORMAL BOOT", "FASTBOOT", "RECOVERY"... nothing else happens.

2) "TCWM - T4 trigger" method, but after choosing the update.zip file, the recovery displays this message:

View attachment 3354481

What the hell? K013_1 ? :eek:
[MeMO Pad 7 General] social-design-concepts:
Its going to call droidboot.img default.prop file it be interesting to see if recovery.img and droidboot.img default.prop differ or if they booth call your tablet a K013_1
[MeMO Pad 7 General] thebulletfromhell:
Yep. In droidboot it complain about not having a boot implementation or something similar
[MeMO Pad 7 General] vampirefo:
Well if you are going to flash via custom recovery just open the zip and remove the check, then install.
[MeMO Pad 7 General] tb79:
But what update 5.0 to 5.0.1???

OTA and asus Download are both k013-12.10.1.17!

I think it's the same version... Some people try to update by adb and nothing happens.. [emoji15]

and will it work on any other version?
[MeMO Pad 7 General] vampirefo:
This could be.
[MeMO Pad 7 General] dog121:
Yep its the same version must be a type error by Asus... 5.0.0./5.0.1 I just downloaded it extract the zip all the files apps ect are the same even the build prop is the same ... 5.0.0

No reason to flash, then.

Hello guys, I've got an issue.

I'm on Lollipop and trying to fix video choppiness I wiped the tablet from TWRP. It boots to Android but the navbar, status bar and other things are missing.

Someone has any idea how to fix this?

PS: I don't have a nandroid backup :(

Look about 10 pages back for lollipop nandroid backup :)

[MeMO Pad 7 General] move_over:
go to this thread- http://xdaforums.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096

download the public release version, and a copy of the latest superuser zip.

Put the superuser zip on your tablet sd card.

Unzip the tool, have your tablet plugged into the pc, run the .bat file.

Type "ACCEPT", you should see your device recognized.

If not, you need different drivers, hopefully it just gets recognized.

Type T4, it will put your tab into fastboot mode, download files, and boot to the temp cwm. c From there, flash the su zip, and reboot.

any good news on this tablet? Ive been out until lollipop came out for this guy. And quite frankly, my friend with this tablet cant even go to lollipop. he says after the tablet reboots to install and shows the android with the spinning thing in his stomach, it shows a dead android with error then reboots back to kitkat. Im pretty fed up with this tablet in all honesty.

im late

ok so i had this tablet for a while and the last update i did was on .182 after that it wouldn't update. so i decided to wait till asus uploaded new firmware to their website

i downloaded that firmware and now i dont know what to do or how to update

it still on .182:(:(:(
[MeMO Pad 7 General] move_over:
Download the firmware and put it on the SD card of the tablet. Reboot and it should have a notification to update.

Unresponsive Home button

Suddenly the home button is not responding after upgrading to 5.0. Any thoughts and recommendation? I've already tried to reset several times.
[MeMO Pad 7 General] DrBatson:
Hello everyone! :D Anyone got advice on how to upgrade to 5.0 if my first try failed and it looks like my bootloader (borked, #@ed up) have been corrupted? I tried first method (described on the OTA collection page), second method (temp CWM and TWRP),downgraded to 182, upgraded to 201 (with modified scripts) got into bootloop, got out of bootloop and now I'm back on 201 again. I used both official signed lollipop .zips (linked in this forum and straight from ASUS support) and bootlooped both times. Now I'm a little bit tired of this... :eek: On second thougth I did not try the lollipop nandroid backup (from this forum). Should I even try that? Would it be a solution to corrupted bootloader?

I'm badly in need of some advice! :D
[MeMO Pad 7 General] Hikorust:
My experience:

I was on 201, rooted. I unfreezed all bloatware but forgot to unroot. OTA downloaded but failed update to lollipop and after reset, device was still on kitkat and OTA didnt apeared again. After that, i unrooted, downloaded update from asus, put it on memory card and reset. After that, update 5.0 was done.

Hope this helps :)

Is there any chance for rootzenphone root to be released for lollipop?

sry for bad english.

reflections

I think it is best to re collect Bios - uefi from our me176cx tablet with partially-bios - uefi asus memo pad 7 (m81c) the only question is where to get the Bios from the asus memo pad 7 (m81c).

Well and accordingly to break the Bootloader from me176cx

Asus memo pad 8 (m81c) dual boot windows and android tablet similar with our stuffing and the same processor
[MeMO Pad 7 General] DrBatson:
Thank you for replying, but I tried upgrading with totally unchanged, unrooted 201 rom too...it didn't work. :(

Probably my tab will not get lollipop until unlocked bootloader (and it will never happen... I know I know that's just negative thinking :silly:).

But if windows 10 will be under 16 GB it should be able to launch android and even iOS apps AFAIK (but can't believe Apple will not kill anyone who will try to support iOS apps in his system)

Hi thank you very much i rooted it but it appears some error but ok after i checked it with root checker and it says that is rooted

after all that i make restore to factory settings it appears the starter guide and stucked i reboot the tablet and now it stucked one hour to ASUS IN SEARCH OF INCREDIBLE? It is bricked right? Any guide to unbrick it?
[MeMO Pad 7 General] Mis012:
If you still have the old bootloader, flash WW 182 firmware from here http://xdaforums.com/memo-pad-7/general/me176c-x-collection-roms-updates-t3012965

If you have the new lollipop bootloader, then download lollipop firmware from asus site.

If you still have the old bootloader (the one with reboot to recovery instead of recovery mode), you may not be able to flash lollipop, so in this case better go to servis and say it failed to update to lollipop, and they will flash lollipop raw firmware to the device.

[MeMO Pad 7 General] Mis012:
If you are still able to get in droidboot, then use temporary cwm (search for intel temporary cwm on google, there is section about it on xda. Download the newest version and use T4 trigger) to flash lollipop firmware.

If the baterry is so low it doesn't start, try to plug it for all the night - you have deleted charger images and so on, but I think that charging should always work ;)

ok so i did this and it doesnt show any notification. im on .182 and it wont update to any others with this method. Is there a way to update this to lollipop with one flash or do i need to install each update after another. if so how do i do that. i would like to just update to lollipop for now ill worry about root later. thanks in advance
[MeMO Pad 7 General] move_over:
I think you might have to update one step at a time, using the stock recovery. You can try using temporary cwm to backup your current setup, then try flashing the image someone posted for lollipop a ways back in the thread.
[MeMO Pad 7 General] peldo123:
i have no clue on how to update one by one. are there any links i can follow

.... sorry for being a noob and thanks in advance:laugh:
[MeMO Pad 7 General] move_over:
Don't have any links, unfortunately. I would search this thread for them, if that doesn't work then Google is your best friend.

You will need each update zip put on the SD card and then hopefully get an update notification, going up one step at a time. Pretty sure that someone has posted a guide to do that earlier in the thread.

Okay, so I've had Lollipop 5.0.1 (from Asus website, after OTA failed) for a few days now and here are a few problems that I have:

- if left idle for a while, the tablet loses performance, the fps in games is greatly reduced, the only solution is restarting the tablet

- sometimes, when I play games the tablet suddenly freezes and then restarts itself

- this happened only once, but after leaving it idle for a few hours, the tablet had some white dots and lines on the screen. They went away after I restarted the tablet.

- sometimes when I restart the tablet, the customized order of the applications in the drawer modifies. The applications that have part of their data moved on the Micro SD are moved to be the first ones in the drawer.

Tried factory reset and it didn't help with anything. Anyone else getting these problems? Any ideas about them?

[MeMO Pad 7 General] move_over:
After 9.5 hours uptime I still get a good score.

I think people that see the slowdown might have an app that is causing memory leak. I consistently have around 400mb free memory. Used TB to freeze some apps like Facebook, telephony, omelet chat, etc. Also used servicely to disable some services.

Check settings>apps>running to see how much free ram you have when it slows down. If it's close to 400mb then it must be something else causing the problem. If it's a lot less then it is likely an app eating memory.
