TF701t - Hard Reset Fails ...

Dear Community,

I wanted to hard reset my TF701t to delete my data and give it to another one.

But now it stucks in "deleting data" ... that endures a minute then a dead android is on the screen.

When I want to reboot it, the hard reset comes again and want to delete everything, but the dead android is coming back :/

I can't go in Recovery Mode (Volume-down + Power)

Connection to APX works but, see pic below ...

I don't know what I could try anymore ...

Hope somebody have an idea.

Best greetings,

Symbic

Link to the picture is broken, so we cannot see what result you got...

What's your situation: Bootloader unlocked? Custom recovery? I guess not since you get the dead Android?
[Asus Transformer TF701] mr.bin:
link to screenshot ok.

as i can see- problems begin after trying access to EMMC chip.

"Taking backup of EKS"

unfortunately with 90% certainty i can say that the EMMC chip damaged.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Symbic:
Can I do anything else to test the EMMC chip?
[Asus Transformer TF701] mr.bin:
In that state the EMMC chip can be tested with the special equipment like EasyJtag box.
[Asus Transformer TF701] xtac_inside:
Hello Mr Bin, registered an account just to say thank you...

You have no idea.. was helping a friend to update, but the guy who sold it(tf701) had bought it from different region and turned it to US, so we ended up hard bricking it.

Long story short, we hard bricked it.

Thank you for your hard work in making the fix, and a big THANK you for sharing it...

Perfect fix, its better than before because it got updated to .47 (we couldnt update, no OTA no manual, too old version for custom recoveries)

Again.. thanks :cowboy::cowboy::good::good::cowboy:
[Asus Transformer TF701] aldabubo:
Thanks.

But, after clicking to RCK, shows Android with blue procesing line and after few seconds android with open door and red triangle !. After few minutes bootloop....nothing more.

What can i doing again?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sfischer1979:
Wow! It's back!

Hi.

First of all: Thank you very much! I was sure my tablet was a goner... It is actually back. One tip I'd like to add: I had to try around a bit to get into APX mode. But essentially I just had to connect the tablet to my PC and then push "Volume up" and power at the same time - and ignore that the screen did not light up ...

Again: Thanks a lot!
[Asus Transformer TF701] Kandern97:
Mr.Bin,

You have resurrected my TF701T! Thank you SOOOO MUCH! You are an actual genius! Thanks!

I have the same problems although i have not installed any custom OS but after few months of not using it didnt load up and ended in APX mode.

Tried this solution, installed the driver, started the .bat file and ended up here :

So, I was running fine with CROMi-X KitKat, but wanted to upgrade to Marshmallow (to install sw not supported in KitKat), so decided to try KatKiss 6.0. It's been years since I've played with flashing ROMs, but I did a little reading to refresh my memory. Then I rebooted into recovery (ClockworkMod), backed everything up, then wiped everything, formatted /data, and tried flashing the KatKiss zip file. At that point, it just sat there forever at the ASUS logo screen:

I've tried several times to boot back into recovery by holding the Vol+ and Power buttons, but it either doesn't boot, or boots to the above screen. I've connected it to my Mac w/ the Android SDK Platform Tools, but adb doesn't see any device listed. [I've got an old Windows laptop (XP?)] I could use if it will do something the Mac can't.]

Any advice on how I can save this tablet?

This method can be apply to tft300t?
[Asus Transformer TF701] MD08:
Hi! What a great thread! After lurking on this forum for many years, i've registered to expose my issue with an old tf701 that was given to me by a friend. He say me he installed esexplorer and deleted file to clean space. Next day he rebooted and never been able to boot system. Now tablet is in bootloop ending with blackscreen and backlight on. Im able to open in fastboot and talk with minimal adb and fastboot. RCK update ending with fallen robot, Wipe data/cache ending with fallen robot. APX mode also working and ive run mr.bin's Nvflash unbrick tool with this result:

Advise would be great help. I dont know if mmc could be dead, it showing some successful tranfert but keep failing at same place. Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF701] AllexBast:
Hello. These commands for nvflash make a backup and installation of the system.

REED

@cls
@nvflash.exe --blob blob.bin --bl bootloader.bin --read 9 recovery.img --read 11 boot.img --read 12 system.img
@pause

WRITE

@cls
@nvflash.exe --blob blob.bin --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery.img --download 11 boot.img --download 12 system.img
@pause

Thanks mr.bin for a great tool
[Asus Transformer TF701] AllexBast:
Important information who uses nvflash!

3 files (ABTxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.bin, EKS_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.bin, PER_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.bin, which are created after running nvflash, must be flashed again. Otherwise, it will be impossible to unlock the tablet again and the serial number will be lost. Save in a safe place and then rename the files to EKS, ABT, PER.

To do this, create a second file with the bat extension. In a text editor, type these lines

nvflash --wait --blob blob.bin --bl bootloader.bin --download 7 ABT --download 21 EKS --download 18 PER --go

If these files are saved on the unlocked tablet, then after their firmware unlocking will be restored.

Also, using nvflash, you can resize partitions, flash a bootloader with file system markup, recovery.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Acetone007:
There is no way to load an unlocked bootloader in this process ??

What's with camcorder?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tossox:
You can see this rom is based on AdrianDC device tree. Adrian has not yet repaired the camcorder in this tree so on all the roms that are based on his tree will not work camcorder. Well, unless someone would make a fix.
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
Yup, exactly, but iirc some other tester claims that camcorder is working with footej cam from play store.

Next time do use some common sense before you post, please.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Indie Zex:
Great rom dic1911, thanks!
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:

Hi

When I flash rom then flash gapps but I give google play service foce stop message.

Pls help me
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tossox:
Official OpenGapps is not stable yet. You can see a lot force closes. If u rebooted device after flashing rom (I'm talking about oreo) and you in setup wizard, try to skip wizard (don't connect to wifi, don't write anything just skip). Here is the most stable gapps for me.
[Xperia SP Android Development] miladn78:
Thanks but still have Google play services force close when I want to add my Gmail ( After ROM completly booted , not in setup wizard).
[Xperia SP Android Development] Ellulellu:
Weird,

i installed it over adb shell, and it was OK.

But i cant log in. My old pin code doest work anymore. It Says wrong pin all the time. I dont understand how it is possible.

i also tryed Wipe data/factory reset but that failed

i got such text

*****************************

Supported API: 3

-- Wiping data...

Formatting /data

E: /sbin/mke2fs_static failed with status 1

E: format_volume: make ext4 failed on /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/Userdata: No such file or directory

Data wipe failed.

*****************************

What i should try for next? How i can remove that pin code or how i can get correct pin?

Phone is clean and empty, there no google account or smth.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tossox:
You can flash for sure stock rom over again from Flashtool and try again. If it does not work, I bet on gapps or that you logging in to the wrong account. For sure, use my instructions here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75249363&postcount=503
[Xperia SP Android Development] Ellulellu:
Ok i give a try for new stock firmware.

That worked. Absolutly clean phone now. Android 4.3

EDIT1: I try Cosmic-OS again now.

EDIT2: I dont know why but first cosmic os install went something wrong. Battery drained quickly and phone was very slow. i installed it again and then everything went fine. Works fine now.

Also interesting is, that if i try different codes or even write only one number, like "5" only. phone says wrong pin-code. Or even if i leave field blank. It still says wrong pin-code.

And after entering 10 times wrong code, the phone doesnt say "phone locked... wait for 15 minutes" or smth. That leads me to next idea. - Is it possible to "brute force" pin code over adb shell.

is there some command how i can sent codes in counting mode

like 0000, then 0001, then 0002 etc.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tossox:

[Xperia SP Android Development] Ellulellu:
Does split screen works on Xperia SP5303 ? Mine says all the time "App does not support split-screen".
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
It should be working if you remove the lowram line from build.prop, not tested tho
[Xperia SP Android Development] X7SHaDe:
Developer Options has a toggle which says "Force activities to be resizable" which forces all apps to be resizable for multi-window function (split-screen in this case) but the requirement tho is that you are on non-Go User Interface (Disabled Go configuration) to use split screen feature in the recents panel.

The lowram entry on build.prop as said by the OP is the solution to disable Go and switch back to normal user interface. Or you can just flash Low-RAM Property Patcher made by [MENTION=2233641]AdrianDC[/MENTION], it will switch the made whatever the mode you are currently in. (in this case: from Go to normal mode)

you forgot to say the camcorder is down
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
No, I didn't forget anything, it's working for me with footej.

I always check my build before release, so if anything is wrong, it must be your fault.

Camcorder isnt working
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
READ THE DAMN THREAD before you say anything that might look dumb, noob, or stupid.

Those things have been mentioned for times already.
[Xperia SP Android Development] laim_name:
I know that camcorder isnt working, i just said it to top guy

Why are you so angry?
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
Considering you didn't even quote the guy when saying something to the guy, it looks like you're just simply ranting.

Also, if you're reasonable enough to think, please read the whole thread at my perspect, then you'll find out why I'm so upset with that kind of reply, by the way camera wasn't even working at the very first unreleased CosmicOS build, I spent times to find out how to make it work with Adrian's code combine with CosmicOS's source, then you all see what we got here, noobs ranting, non-sense feature requests(FYI I do receive some unreasonable PMs).

Anyway, I just want to say, all you noobs are giving me cancer, stop asking non-sense question and expect to be spoonfed, your post will be ignored(at least by me)
[Xperia SP Android Development] varioventus:
Thumbs up to dic1911, I back up his attitude. He is so right!

Every ROM topic, starting with Adrian's groundbreaking work on AOSP and Lineage is plagued with stupid remarks and questions. There are 50 stupid no-brain replies for every useful information. All the work of the developers is sunk in sea of ****, thousands of dumbass questions and remarks. This is a TECHNICAL Android forum, this is not the "Let's learn English language for beginners and retards" forum!

I gave up watching and contributing to this forum exactly due to this mass of uselss spam. And I'm not the only one.

>this butthurt
[Xperia SP Android Development] DahakePL:
Finally someone said something real about the situation, camcorder doesn't work as intended on all of my devices so it's not only a single device related bug. People don't understand that I guess.
[Xperia SP Android Development] carlosfelipeaguiar:
They won't forgive you for making such a simple question.

The point is.. I don't know how to root it either

Please dic, could you update?
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
Of course I will, I heard from the ROM dev that he got exam to work with, and he will update/add more stuff in source after exam

That's why I didn't release the first build with March security patch included, just be patience for now, good stuff worth the wait.
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
Hello guys, the update is uploaded now on the sourceforge folder for huashan!

Grab it here now!

[MENTION=8541794]Tossox[/MENTION] I think you might want some notification so here's one ;)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tossox:
In substratum SystemUI theming not working. Substratum keep say "System UI keeps stopping... ; All enabled overlays for this app have been disabled". Build from January I have not tested, but on February and March builds i have this. The most annoying thing in this ROM, I like so much customization's. I hope something can be done about it :)

First of all I really want to thank you dic1911 for this awesome and great Rom one of the bests. :D

I just was wondering does anyone faces this notification "SDcard is corrupted" I tried many different working SDcards and tried to 'chkdsk' it and format it in PC, Nothing actually worked. :(

Again Thank you very much for this awesome rom YOU MADE MY YEAR <3

Edit : I forgot to mention the the sdcard is successfully mounted in TWRP but on the system it's not working at all and it worked on the same device on AOSP 8.0.0

Thanks in advance

[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
Sorry I forgot to notice you guys that something related to storage part of sepolicy is broken, will release another build when source is fixed, meanwhile if any of you really sdcard working, please flash Adrian's kernel permissive patcher as a temporary workaround or revert to older build
[Xperia SP Android Development] rbertoche:
Man, why are you being so rude?

Deleting my post won't change the fact that it doesn't work
[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
1. You have no idea what are you talking about.

2. Your information is outdated, we have properly working camcorder in latest build.

3. Your argument is invalid.

4. If you have no idea or gonna reply with some random nonsense statement, stop using my ROM, rollback to that laggy and vulnerable stock 4.3 JB ROM.
[Xperia SP Android Development] n78 shadow:
Does anyone facing problems with installing gapps?!

Google play services FC all the time.

I tried many ways (flashed with the ROM, flashed after rebooting.....)

If anyone has gapps working what is the right way to install it with this ROM?

Thanks in advance and thanks for this awesome ROM??:laugh::victory:
[Xperia SP Android Development] woodman:
I've read the few last posts of this thread and I have to admit that there are some issues regarding what we expect from XDA members:

1- XDA forum rule #2 states you have to respect other members. I ask you to calm down, otherwise the moderation team could take actions.

2- Please respect developer's work done here for free. Devs on XDA are giving their free time to provide ROMs, kernels, apps, etc. So please remember they owe you nothing. So don't ask for updates, ETAs or stuff like that. And if you notice some bugs, please read the OPs and use the search function and then provide proper info, logs, screenshots, detailed descriptions if needed.

I didn't clean the thread this time but it may change if you don't follow the rules, here: https://xdaforums.com/announcement.php?a=81

Try this:

1. install rom and gapps (I use pico) at the same time

2. when setup wizard starts hard reset your phone (power off + volume up)

3. after reboot wizard will start again, and while there'll be force closes again, ignore them and you'll be able to finish

[Xperia SP Android Development] dic1911:
Oops, sorry I made a mistake, I forgot to push update info to the server after uploading the build, anyway, the build you're on is latest if it's already 20180704.

Just ignore the update message til the next update is up.
