I have a Transformer Prime TF201 (first batch) which is in some sort of a bricked state where the only screen I get is the black screen, in the center it says in white "Asus® Inspiring Innovation - Persistent Perfection" and in the bottom-right there's the 'powered by Nvidia'TEGRA' logo.

I can't get the tablet to really shut down.

By pressing power+vol-down for 10 seconds, I can get into bootloader mode, with four options.

Selectable are RCK, Android, USB and Wipe data.

I like to update to KatKiss 7.1 (https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf700/development/rom-t3457417)

I haven't used the tablet for some years because of it's terribly slow preformance. Had it replaced for an iPad for some time. That device is gone now because of completely corrupted memory (!) :) )

I didn't root the Transformer Prime when I used it.

Now I like to try to revive the device, are there any instructions so I can get it working on KatKiss?

I'm a bit familiar with rooting and ROM flashing.

This device is non-essential, so I have my hands free to try whatever it needs :)

Bootscreen says: Android cardhu-user bootloader <1.00 e> "ww_epad-10.4.2.18-20121122" A03

Thank you so much!! Now I have another question: is there a way to have 3 to 4 windows open at a time? I saw a YouTube video where it was possible but on my tablet it only gives me the option for 2. And thanks again!!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rp2pilot:
I think you can configure it in systemui tuner in settings. The Marshmallow release had 2, 3, and 4 window multiview buttons..

Pretty sure but not positive, as I'm a n00b myself...You need TWRP installed 1st the 201 has a specific version that needs to be installed and pretty sure you need ADB to do that.

Instructions are on the 1st page for installing the ROM, super SU and GAPPS. But you need to find out how to install TWRP on the 201. I'm sure someone will help you out this is a very helpful and friendly forum.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jmiser:
Hi,

first you need to ugrade bootloader to JB 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER VERSION 10.6.1.27.1.

Find Upgrade Hairybean 2.31 (4.2.1) Bootloader & TWRP (2.5).zip, if you already have twrp on recovery (RCK) you can put zip file on microsd and install it with twrp.

If not then boot to bootloader USB, then on pc run in platform-tools adb:

fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery blob.blob

fastboot reboot-bootloader

where blob.blob file is from zip file.

You have to download kang twrp at least version 2.8.5., boot to recovery (RCK) then install zip from microsd.

Again boot to recovery (RCK), go to twrp/wipe/format data then type yes

It takes about 60 minutes to format, make sure that your battery is full, Do Not interrupt format(if you do, it will brick)

After it's done go to Wipe/Advanced Wipe/Select Data

Tap “Repair or Change File System”/”Change File System//F2FS

Swipe to Change

Then Wipe dalvik cache, system, cache, data, internal storage

Flash rom KatKiss from microsd card (I used a katkiss 7.1)

Flash Supersu from microsd card (I used SuperSU-v2.79)

Flash Gapps.zip from microsd card (I used open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico, other apps you need you can get from playstore)

Wipe cache/dalvik

Reboot

That should work, as it worked for me, had the same problem.

hi all.. great work on the new update timduru..

anyone knows how to keep the shortcuts of the apps on the top row after removing the search bar ?

after a reboot the top row shortcuts are gone.. and the widgets..

Thanx

Kitkat is a really great rom, thanks for all the work!

However, I have a problem. Since version 21 the battery of the dock is no longer working. The icon is visible in the status bar and the battery is 80% full. If I put the loader on, the tablet battery will be charged to 100% but the battery of the dock stays at 80%.

Does anyone have the same problem? Any idea how to solve the problem?

Thanks!

Well, I guess it depends what you term as "unnecessary functions". I know the Pro version is much different from the free one it's very close to the way the free version used to look. ;)

I had the same lag when I jumped to Nougatella .. went back to Marshmallow and the lag is gone. Considering the age of the tablet, I think I'll just keep it on Marshmallow till it hits the recycle shop. Is there a way to keep the Security patches current if I'm not reflashing the whole rom?

Hello.

In first place Timduru, thank you for this amazing job. I finally saw my TF700T reborn.

I've install the latest V22, and I think that my tablet never worked so fast. But i'm having some littles issues that I want to request your help/clarification.

Above my nav bar there exist a dock where I can drop some app's but, this dock makes me remember the smartphones, and for me i prefer to think that I'm using a tablet. I've already made her "disappear" enabling the transparent dock background option, but the little arrow continues on the screen and i don't like this.

I'm having the problem already discussed with the wallpaper, and I've tried different resolutions but at this moment I can't have a wallpaper, my backgroud continues all black.

Thanks one more time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] stansaraczewski:
Thank you so VERY much for this amazing work - my TF700 had been mothballed for a few months as the release of katkiss that was a bit over a year old had become unstable - perhaps caused by my tinkering. It is now a joy to use.
[Asus Transformer TF700] V@R:
In regards to not being able to set up a wallpaper, having black background - did some digging after several not successful attempts to set up the wallpaper using the 1900x1200 image as a source and found:

- the resulting wallpaper file was in fact created at /data/system/users/0/wallpaper but for some reason was upscaled to 3072x1920 resolution.

- thinking, that the oversized wallpaper file is potentially a root cause tried a very simple trick and it worked:

a) let's say, the source 1900x1200 image was saved as /sdcard/Pictures/1.jpg

b) got the wallpaper set using any tool, like 'Gallery', having black background after saving

c) start 'Terminal Emulator' and gain root access

d) run

# cd /data/system/users/0

# cat /sdcard/Pictures/1.jpg > wallpaper

e) reboot the tablet, and enjoy your wallpaper after the tablet comes up
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
Wow! Thanks! This worked like a charm!

Those that don't know to have root access in terminal mode all you have to do is type su at the terminal prompt and hit enter.

Also note...the image file name may not contain any spaces...so you may need to rename a COPY of your desired file.

Do you have the ability to maybe write a script or app to automate this for others who might not be so inclined as to use terminal mode?

Better yet, maybe timduru could somehow incorporate it into the .23 update? ;)

Just finished the installation last night using this guide: https://xdaforums.com/transformer-prime/help/guide-tutorial-asus-transformer-prime-t3486237

My TF201 (with dock) is running Android N now. :)

One thing that I noticed right away is the 2-finger Scroll direction is reversed. (Using the touchpad on Dock)

Haven't read through all 50+ pages of conversations, but I searched 'scroll' in the thread and couldn't find an answer.

So, is anyone else seeing this issue? I would really like to switch the scrolling direction back to 'Mouse cursor mode'. (There isn't an touchpad option in the 'Setting')

Please share your solutions with me, thanks.

I'm curious what step I have done wrong, as complete the full install and when booting my TF700t for the first time the little dog head with the coloured balls moving around comes up, and hours later its still the same screen. I left it overnight, 9+ hours and no change.

Yea, if you're seeing a dog something is wrong, should be a meercat. ?

Seriously, maybe try a clean install if you haven't already.

2 tf700t.

One with #21 and it works fine, only wifi receiving is less than the other one.

from this one the motherboard changed by ASUS in Brno.

The second one is newer and I could notice that in all options it is quicker.

first followed the installation of 7.1.1 by the book and it worked very good till #21.

Now did a clean install of #22 = 7.1.2.

after 1 week of use it starts up again everytime I try to run a program...

I don't know what I did wrong.

TWRP 3.0.2-1

Open gapps arm 7.1. pico 20170418

Super SU v2.79 20161211114519

K.A.T. V 2.4.2

I'm afraid that something is wrong with hardware...

Been running on this rom for awhile now. Over time my tablet has essentially become a media device typically kodi hdmi to tv and on trips mounted in vehicle for large navigation screen. Given that should I simply run rom/kernel as is or are there certain tweeks that would be useful?

Thanks much

[Asus Transformer TF700] DigitalPegasus:
New to custom ROMs, want to install this one, but doing my research 1st. Please help!

I'm new to the rooting and custom ROMs scene. I'd consider myself pretty computer literate, and have jailbroken a personal iPhone several years back, (that's part of why I'm now an Android user!), but this is my first time trying to do anything with rooting, custom ROMs, etc.

I want to revive my old ASUS Transformer Infinity (TF700T) which I haven't used in a long time because the lag got terrible and it was pretty much useless. I started the process with a factory wipe of the system and have it basically working with the stock version of Android from ASUS now. It is currently using Android 4.2.1 and firmware 10.6.1.14.10. After some research and work, I've managed to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP 3.1.0 to my recovery, and root the device through TWRP. I also created my backup/nandroid at this point. My next step is apparently to flash a custom ROM, and I'd like to use this one (KatKiss 7.1 Nougatella TF700T 022). I'm just wanting to make sure I have all my ducks in a row before I do so.

Some of the guides I've been using for help have this note:

This makes me pause. I notice in this thread it says:

I assume my bootloader is still stock, just unlocked since as far as I understand that's all I've done to it. However, the TWRP I downloaded is 3.1.0 and I believe is the regular, not this KANG version. Do I need to make sure I switch my recovery to the KANG version then prior to flashing this ROM? And just in case, is there a definitive way to tell whether mine is KANG or not?

Also, being new, I'm not sure I've read exactly what the guide directed. I'm not sure what an OP is when it says:

I gather it has to do with a thread in a forum such as this. Want to make sure. What is it? Am I reading the correct place?

One more question. I see in this thread:

This is through a terminal app, right? Do I do this before I flash the ROM, or first thing after I have flashed it? Also, do I need to do it on a terminal app, or can I do it using TWRP? The guide I've been referring to seems to indicate that I can do it there.

Any help and/or advice before proceeding so I make sure I don't run into problems or brick my tablet is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] flhthemi:
I'm a n00b myself but computer literate. I don't think you HAVE to use the Kang version as many people have updated, including myself, to 3.10 TWRP.

Here is a link to the way I did it with help from experienced forum members (who are on THIS forum with different names), thank goodness for them. It is on another forum but it is in n00b format ;)

For the n00bs: The LINK I can't seem to make a link with the editor ???? So here it is http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...tkiss-marshmallow-6-0-1-rom-2.html#post355949

It may help you by reading the thread so you can follow the progress and maybe answer questions you have now.

You're going to LIKE your Asus again, so when you get it done and see how great this ROM is don't forget to help timduru out if you can. ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Agree with flhthemi.

To answer your questions:

OP is the original or first post in a thread.

You format data in recovery and you do it to prepare your device for a new rom.

You must format when switching roms, updating a rom usually can be done without it.

Your TWRP version is fine. Most devs have better things to do than going through all their OP's and updating every little detail, e.g. developing better roms. They sweat the big stuff, for the details you have us ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] DigitalPegasus:
Thanks for the help, have a new question...

Thanks flhthemi and berndblb! I think I'm going to try this when I get a chance to sit down again with it one of these very next evenings.

I didn't realize there were different file systems available. Checking, yes, it appears mine is EXT4. Sounds like F2FS is the way to go. At what point in this process do I do the conversion to the F2FS?

I'd assume either just before or after the wipe, but again, want to make sure.

Actually, looking into TWRP right now, looks like it might be an actual part of the wipe? Not sure. Whats the order of operations here?

Also, which partitions should I wipe, and which partitions need changed to F2FS?

Here's a list I get of partitions in the Advanced Wipe Screen:

Dalvik / ART Cache (Looks like this has to do with android and Java, do I do anything here?)

System

Cache

Data

Internal Storage

Micro SD Card (Not this one obviously, or I'll lose the ROM, SuperSU, and gapps)

Dock_SDcard (nothing in this anyways)
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
You formatted already, so now you can just change the file system on /data. That's the only partition where a change to f2fs makes sense.

You'll find the option under Advanced Wipe - change or repair file system.

But you have to flash rom and gapps again after converting.

Wiping Dalvik or ART makes sense whenever you are flashing gapps, so almost every time you flash a rom. It gets rebuild at first boot anyway, so wiping it us never wrong.
[Asus Transformer TF700] DigitalPegasus:
Uhh, what did I do wrong?

:eek::crying:

Uhh. OK. I wiped data/cache/dalvik with TWRP, converted data to f2fs, flashed KatKiss-7.1_TF700T_022.zip, re-wiped cache/dalvik at end of flash, flash installed SuperSU (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.79-20161211114519.zip) and gapps pico (open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20170502.zip), then rebooted. Get Katkiss logo, (getting excited, looking good). Have the meerkat with the 4 colored circles for a few minutes, get an initial screen to select my language, then get, "Welcome to your TF700T" and can select "Copy your data" or "Set up as new". Choose setup as new and...

So I select open app again.

Tried rewiping and reflashing ROM and SuperSU and Gapps, same result.

What did I do wrong, and how do I fix this? :confused::(

HELP!

UPDATE: (a few hours later)

Tried downloading Timduru's ROM of Katkiss 6.0.1 Marshmallow with the corresponding SuperSU and Gapps, flashed them with the same process I used for 7.1, and it is up and going. So this problem for me is with the 7.1 Nougatella, not with all custom ROMs. Still would like to run the later version of Android with Nougatella if possible, but at least I have a working tablet with custom ROM. Any help with the Nougatella 7.1 is still greatly appreciated!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ppfrank:
With version 022 you need to manually turn on WiFi before choosing to setup as new. There is an icon in the far lower corner of the screen to do that or if you have the keyboard attached the function key on the top row above the "1" key will also turn on WiFi.

This is what you missed at the very end of the install instructions on page one of this thread:

Note that current gapps setup wizard will crash as it is not fully compatible with android 7.1.2 (KatKiss >= 022)

unless you turn on wifi manually after the language selection in the initial setup.

(if you don't have a dock, use the extra wifi button in the navbar)
[Asus Transformer TF700] DigitalPegasus:
Thank you ppfrank!

Yeah, I miss one thing and it throws a monkey wrench in the whole thing. Re-flashed 7.1.2 and it works great! I vaguely remember seeing that too but I guess I didn't tune in all the way. Sorry for the stupid move, but thank you for the help!

Great so far! My tablet is working better than I remember it ever working! Need to do some more app installs, but will probably send a donation! Thanks Timduru!
[Asus Transformer TF700] la pouniere:
Problem still there , any idea ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] realWaldbaer:
I have actually formatted everything through fastboot which seems to be more rigorous. Then I also used the 3.1.0 version of the TWRP instead of KANG and it worked fine with me. I had to use the fastboot way because I bricked the recovery :) and through fastboot you are able to make the recovery section of the tablet ready for installing a new one...

I really like this version - much faster and better than the ZOMBIE-one I think. Really appreciated and great work.

The only drawback I have is that my background is black. I tried the solution which was described here but it didnt work for me. But out of my perspective this is really a very small thing and not worth to think about it twice.

Best regards,

Not worth buying just the digitizer, need to replace the whole LCD-digitizer as a complete unit, you will end up breaking it trying to get them apart. Bought one myself about a year ago for around $60 US from Aliexpress.

If you are going to replace it, take the old one out first, find out which model screen you have, there are 2 different ones. If you get the wrong one, the x and y axis vales are all back to front!
