Simply flash Kang TWRP 2.8.7.2 !!! (https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf300t/development/recovery-twrp-t3046479). This is the right one for TF300T.
[Transformer TF300T General] Eypisod:
Will I be able to do that without the drivers ? I'm under the impression that fastboot doesn't see my tab so I can't install a recovery.
[Transformer TF300T General] taz_devil:
I can't seem to pass the PC to tablet connection step. What could go wrong?

My PC's OS is Windows 10 Pro, 32bit version. I followed the below guide:

Both installations responded "sucessful".

I then connect my TF300T to the PC with original charging/data cable, my PC doesn't seem to recognize the tablet. If I go to device manager, I will see an unknown USB with yellow (!).

What did I do wrong?

Thanks,
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
Please download the Asus PC Suite "ASUS PC Sync V1.0.97": https://www.asus.com/de/supportonly/ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T/HelpDesk_Download/

Install the PC Suite on your PC. Connect your Tablet with the PC via USB. Windows will ask for the driver. Point Windows on the folder of the PC Suite. The drivers will be there. :cowboy:
[Transformer TF300T General] taz_devil:
Still does not work.

*Windows did not ask for the driver.

*When try to update the driver through device manager (pointing to the folder:

ASUS Android USB Drivers

the result shows:

Update Driver Software - Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)

The best driver software for your device is already installed

Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date

Same thing when I tried the "Universal Naked driver".
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
Look at this site: http://gsmusbdriver.com/asus-transformer-pad-tf300t. There you will also find "how to install the USB driver"!:cowboy:

PS: First of all, please check whether on your tablet "USB debugging" is checked on or not. If not check it on!

Then connect your tablet with the PC again. Open the device manager. If there is seen "Android Device" ->ASUS Android Composite ADB Interface or something like that and "Portable Devices"->TF300T, your tablet is known. Then you may check the driver if an update is necessary .
[Transformer TF300T General] taz_devil:
I've done all those things. I am wondering if my data cable is the culprit. Ever since Android 4.x.x whenever I am charging this tablet, and when the battery is 80% or higher, the screen will wake up and the speaker beeps. I have to mute the speaker and over the screen when charging.
[Transformer TF300T General] bonzoe:
Sorry for late reply, I have been on holiday.

All I know about f2fs is that Timduru recommends using it for data partition on his build. I just follow the experts advice when flashing.
[Transformer TF300T General] Matchless 2015:
djibe89,

Great job you did here!

Just a few comments. Timduru clearly emphasizes the following points in his installation guide and your guide may cause some confusion under the TF300T owners. I have seen newcomers on the Katkiss threads that had problems with their first install due to not following and using the prescribed versions and steps.

1) Timduru advises only to use twrp_tf300_kang_2.8.7.2.img and not TWRP 3.0.2-0

2) It is also suggested that UnLock_Device_App_V7.apk rather be used as some people had problems with V8.

3) He also suggests using UPDATE-SuperSU-V2.79-20161211114519.zip be used, but does not stipulate not using V2.52 which means this one is optional, your choice.

4) He also advises to ONLY change /data to from ext4fs to f2fs for /data and NOT to do this for /cache.

Just again, excellent job and thanks for sharing.
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
Hi, thx for posting.

I enhenced the tutorial with your statements.

However, for the TWRP and F2FS notes, it is related.

2.8 TWRP had problems with F2FS, and were buggy until latest 3.02-0. I have this version on all the devices I hack and have complete faith in it.

Enjoy.

See you

New guy, not getting it done

I am new to all of this, but have been able to struggled through it thanks to a good post. I got all the way to the reboot at the end of step 6. As it attempts to launch I get an error "Encryption Unsuccessful" and an option to "Reset Tablet" but I am in an endless loop. I have read through all of the comments and didn't see where I went wrong. What did I miss? What do I need to do now? Thanks for keeping this thread alive.
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
Please try to get into Fastboot Protocol by holding the button volume down at the time before the boot loop starts again newly. Three icons will appear. The first one, RCK; is blinking. Press volume up and your TWRP should start. Hopefully you have Kang TWRP. If so install rom, gapps and SuperSU again by follow exactly the install instruction by Timduru here: https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf300t/development/rom-t3453702.

Don't forget to do "Format Data" through Kang TWRP as first of all. It takes up to one hour. Be patient and let it run.

Thank you for writing this guide. I followed every step and have rooted my t300 tablet successfully. It was my first time unlocking a bootloader, rooting and flashing a ROM and the guide made it very easy.

Just did a tiny update to be more up to date with actual versions or ROM and TWRP recovery.

I was given a TF300T. and the previous owner did not purchase the keyboard dock. They are rather cheap now, but was hoping to make sure I can bring life to this tablet before I purchase the keyboard. According to the tutorial, I need the card reader for flashing the 7.1. Is there another option through the PC, or do I have to gamble on my abilities and go ahead and purchase the keyboard?
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
Try to flash it first, it is fast and easy with the tutorial.

If it works, buy the keyboard if you like it
[Transformer TF300T General] a_menie:
Oh, duh. I was thinking the microSD slot was on the keyboard part and not the tablet. That little hole looks more like a holder spot for a case to snap on or something, not a card reader slot. :silly: My apologies. And I was so hoping to not ask a stupid question. It is amazing how much appropriate lighting helps. Lol.

[Transformer TF300T General] a_menie:
Alright, my tab is recognized as Asus when regular sync connected. It registers as fastboot device (unknown manufacturer, etc.) on the PC when the tab is in fastboot mode. On the tab, in fastboot mode, it says "Key driver not found".

I was unable to install the .inf files through the folder command prompt. It just states failed. It will not allow me to right click to force install either. It states the file does not support this method of installation. I tried updating the driver through device manager and it stated already up to date and working properly. The current driver is the winusb, so I am guessing the problem is the apxusb not being installed. I even tried a few of the suggested drivers on this thread and the one that comes with AsusSync. When I moved on and hoped for the best, trying to see if it would fastboot connect, the PC kept saying "fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file". I tried as admin as well. Any suggestions or corrections?
[Transformer TF300T General] nasantonio:
Thanks for the topic.

When installing WINDOWS DRIVERS, they are installed but then says (error code 10)

Can someone give me a hand.

[Transformer TF300T General] a_menie:
I was so excited to hopefully use this tablet and it will actually be my first tablet. I have hit this road block. This may be an easy problem to fix. At least it doesn't feel as moronic as me not finding the microSD slot. I know everyone is busy with their own stuff, but if someone could please help. Thank you so much.
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
Please have a look at the left hand side of the tablet. About three finger wide below the volume button you will see the slot for the micro SD card.:cowboy:
[Transformer TF300T General] a_menie:
The PC I am using is Windows 7.

Yes, sorry. I found the microSD slot. The above is what I am stuck on. I was just referring to my first question on XDA, it was obvious I was missing the microSD slot. Thank you for the reply though.

Hi guys.

Started the process with my tab on 12-27-2018. Was stuck for the longest time on the unlock bootloader step. The app took for ages to install. At first it did not work. I removed google account and changed date to manual and that did the trick. From there on, all went well.

Nice written step by step guide; Conversion went all fine... but...

...next day black screen and cannot power on tablet anymore. If anyone have suggestions :confused:

does the tablet charge when plugged to sector ?
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
Hi, can you launch the recovery at boot ?
[Transformer TF300T General] delesse:
last evening all went fine and easy (used tools on W10). Today black...

Charging led works fine, first red, then green (=100%)

I just did a test with USB connected (W7 is needed for the APX because not supported under W10 - or not found a solution). I can see the APX in device manager, installed driver, ok and tried fastboot/adb but NO solution yet. (cannot see a device attached)

Also reset (with fine paperclip) and power down, no success...

nvflash or wheeler should do the trick but need that blob.bin file which i don't have because it's device specific.

I also created a BACKUP with TWRP but i cannot use that. Blob and other backups seems more important but i don't have those.
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
I would like to recommend to you to get your device back on stock rom Jelly Bean 4.2 by doing a [MENTION=3127371]Buster99[/MENTION]: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44244313#post44244313

You need "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" on your PC!
[Transformer TF300T General] delesse:
hi, already found that article but i cannot connect with those tools to the tablet anymore. It's a complete brick.

And you also need the BLOB file which i does not have. (device unique)

I tried with same cable (and others) i used for upgrading and also other laptops with Windows 7. Still no luck.

Hello.

Can I use this istruction, if the touch screen does not respond and the tab is controlled only via its doc-station?

Of course! This is a great advantage of having a doc and use the tablet like a note book. Using an USB mouse makes it some more convenient.

Yes, it does as you can see here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75508864&postcount=1388. But you will lose the G-Function

Please take care that the device is on the latest Asus stock rom Jelly Bean 4.2 with an unlocked bootloader. Secondly you need Kang TWRP recovery. Then follow carefully the install instructions in post #1 of this post: https://xdaforums.com/transformer-tf300t/development/rom-t3453702 [ROM][N 7.1.2]

If I've got it right the 802.11.g functionality will be gone, is this correct? Is there any wip to get it working in the future?

How can I check whether the bootloader is unlocked?

I'm really new to the topic, sorry for the "easy/basic" questions - will need to lookup for Kang TWRP recovery too to find out what that is and how to do it...
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
You are welcome!

1. If I've got it right the 802.11.g functionality will be gone, is this correct? Yes is it!

2. Is there any wipe to get it working in the future? Nope!

3. How can I check whether the bootloader is unlocked? During the start of the device in the left corner above appears the message "The Device is Unlocked"

[Transformer TF300T General] gio_edibera:
Thank you

Thank you very much ebonit, your hints helped me a lot and it worked well for my TF300TG now :good: :) It is a bit slow in operation but I guess it is due to the hardware ...

Best
[Transformer TF300T General] ebonit:
You are welcome! It was a pleasure to help you. Good to hear that your device runs well. Using the "Thanks" button is greatly appreciated.

Regarding to your performance complain I would like to learn if you firstly did Format /Data through Kang TWRP and changing /Data file system to F2FS. This is very important.

BTW, too many people mix up wipes and formats... You format only data, not factory reset, not wipe - you format it ext4, then convert it to F2FS. Formatting in TWRP takes 1 hour +. If it went faster you did not format.

You should also check the Governor setup of your device.

>Go to Settings ->Performance:

>Set clock values on boot

>Set Governor on interaktiv

Minimum frequency

>Current value: 204 MHz

Maximum frequency

>Current value: 1500 MHz

Boot value: >1500 MHz

I/O scheduler current value: >cfq

>Set value on boot
[Transformer TF300T General] Sandrat1:
Hey, I'm very new at this, so forgive me if I've missed something.

You said here that you updated the TWRP to version 3.3, but the pack still downloads 3.2.3

Also, in your pack the SuperSU version is SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822

while the version suggested by Timduru here is UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214

Which of each should I be using?

[Transformer TF300T General] chrisinatl:
The upgrade worked and the tablet is working better than it ever has. THANK YOU!

A self-induced problem left me missing several of the core. pre-installed apps, and I have no backup from which to restore. E.g., I am missing File Explorer, but I do have Camera, Calculator and KatBrowser.

I've downloaded Es File Explorer and a few other apps, but where can I find all of the original apps? (many of which I probably don't want or need)

Unrelated question: often when I move around a screen with one finger, the tablet thinks I am requesting zoom. This doesn't happen with the attached keyboard/touchpad.
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
Hi, I removed the battery app from tutorial. Placed a new link instead.
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
Hi, it looks like ROM flash was not successful or maybe the ROM package was incomplete.

* Download once again latest v38 ROM.

* Copy to internal storage, reboot to TWRP and flash again the ROM (don't worry about your data).

* Wipe dalvik/cache

* reboot and wait during long reboot

* Tell me about your success/failure
[Transformer TF300T General] chrisinatl:
Thanks, but looking at at the Apps folder in KatKiss-7.1_TF300T_038.zip, it appears I might have all the apps (except maybe File Explorer) that were included.

I think the original tablet included a few games and some Asus-specific apps. Do you know of a source where I could download all of the original apps?
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:

[Transformer TF300T General] xuerebx:
Hi all

I am about to try this, and have a few questions:

1) In "Section 2" the part on "Windows 8/10" - is this meant to be done on a PC? Apologies for the perhaps stupid question, but this is my first time.

2) I haven't used my pad in years, and realised that I have "cyanogenmod" flashed/installed - can I still follow this tutorial?

3) Finally, maybe some of you have experienced this - I am unable to force my tablet to restart. Whether it is factory reset, or normal reset, the tablet shuts down but does not start up automatically (as it should do in a reset) - I have to power it on manually. In a factory reset, it doesn't actually perform the reset, as when I power it on it only does a normal power on - nothing is reset.

Thanks a lot!
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
Hi, here are some answers :

1) Use a PC or a Mac but use Windows as Operating System

2) Yes you can upgrade your tab to LOS 14.1

When you boot tab, is bootloader unlocked printed on top of tab ?

If so, you can skip the bootloader flash.

3) Could be caused by : bootloader still locked, or too old ROM like CM you have.

Tell us about your success with the tab.
[Transformer TF300T General] xuerebx:
Thank you so much for replying!

2) Bootloader unlocked is in fact present when booting the tab, so I can skip this part.

3) So, any remedies or am I stuck with no reset option? :)

Thanks!
[Transformer TF300T General] djibe89:
2) Yes you can

3) After unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP recovery, you SHOULD NEVER USE BUILT-IN FACTORY RESET.

Use TWRP to wipe partitions.
[Transformer TF300T General] xuerebx:
Then I most probably mucked it up trying to factory reset...I will see how to use TWRP if it helps to rectify the situation.
[Transformer TF300T General] elesjuan:
Don't want to be a negative Nancy here, just looking for some updates on this. Several years later, I still have a TF300T sitting on my shelf unused. I've tried 5 or 6 different builds on this tablet over the years and unfortunately have yet to find one that allows this tablet to actually be useful. Sad to report, even the bone stock original ROM this tablet came with rendered this device less than useful. I legitimately regret spending over $500 on this thing. Browsing web pages or using a reddit app is out of the realm of useful on this thing, in my opinion. WAY too slow.

That said... Can anyone report how functional it'll be with this build? Will it actually do things in a moderately responsive manor? Thanks in advance!

Problem with TWRP

Hello friends,

I have a TF300T with TWRP 2.8.7.2, I wanted to install the KatKiss ROM Nougat 7.1, but when I start Recovery and I get the first screen, it says:

“Unmodified System Partition” Keep System Read only?

I understand that I must say that I do not want the System partition to be read-only, so I give the option “Swip to allow Modifications” but it does not allow it. That option only works if I give “Keep Read Only” first.

If I give “Keep Read Only” and try to install the new Rom then the “Swipe to confirm Flash” button does not work for me.

Can you help me?.
