[Q] Partition error, Formatting partition 2 BCT.. FAILED! - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry for my English.
eee pad transformer 32gb flashed on prime 1.5 everything seemed to be ok
have not yet made a wipe to get rid of the boot lock screen. It does not work.
CWM does not mount data partition. Factory Reset does not work.
With nvflash partitiontable.txt downloaded and compared it with flash.cfg, they are different.
CWM can't mount "/data" partition, and error with formating

nvflash no stitches, I made a backup, flash, then did another backup, which compared the md5 sections reflashed, nothing has changed
nvflash not working

Did you find a resolution to this problem? I'm having the same issue.

What model is your TF? B60, etc? Your SBK is correct, but it seems like your layour is different from the bct. Have you tried redownloading the files and starting from scratch? Maybe some of the NVflash files are corrupted.
Just FYI, if you use NVFlash to backup the partitions, do not restore partition 2 or 4:

Partition 2 and 4 are encrypted. nvflash does not decrypt it when --read'ing, but at least during --create, it does encrypt it. I'm not entirely sure whether it encrypts it during --download, but if it does, the tablet will appear bricked after flashing.

Mine is a B60. I originally did the nvflash and it worked great for a week. Then yesterday it gave me the 'enter your password' screen. So I tried a cwm factory reset and a hard reset, neither of which have helped. I then redownloaded the files and tried reflashing and it quits on the partition 2 error. I'm guessing I'll have to go pick up another tablet.

Gave a warranty repair, a month now picks nothing to do with it can not. Now you have a new brick.

Help - Can not unbrick TF101 B70 with Wheelie

Hi, my wife's stock TF101 went into a boot loop last night that I can't get it to break out of after multiple cold boot attempts. I also tried doing a factory reset but that gives me the sad android guy on his back (same thing when I try to boot to recovery).
I've installed tons of custom roms over the years and am generally quite knowledgeable when it comes to android, but I'm stuck on this issue (and I'm starting to wonder if my eMMC is faulty or something).
The good news is that I can get into APX mode and use nvflash
I've downloaded both the .24 and .27 firmware updates from asus and tried to to a reflash using wheelie and I keep getting the same error (I've tried this via windows and linux)
My formats and downloads go through successfully each time but then I get these errors:
failed executing command 25 NvError 0x120002
command failure: sync failed (bad data)
bootloader status: Bct Write Failed (code: 22) message: nverror:0x40005 (0x14000
5) flags: 0
I've been googling them all morning with no luck and any help would be greatly appreciated

Encryption Unsucsessful - E:unable to mount /data - nothing works

Sorry for my bad English
A few weeks ago i installed TWRP 2.2.1.4 and flashed the eos4 JB4,2 rom
I created 3 User on Android and it worked fine with no problems.
After 2 weeks i used the keyboard-Dock and now it boots with
"Encryption Unsucsessful"
I used the wipe Button on recovery boot - no sucsess
Then I went into Recovery Menu and used Factory Reset - no sucsess
I reflashed the eos4 - rom - failure "E:unable to mount /data"
I read in different Forums and used different ways (Easy Flasher,Peri-Tool,Wheelie,NVFlash...)
to unbrick the Transformer but nothing works for me.
(E:unable to mount /data)
I can connected to the TF101(SBK1) under win8 and Ubuntu 12.10 in adb and apx Mode
and can use the sytem and sdcard folder to push or pull files to or from the TF101.
Is there any way to swap the internalSD to externalSD (vold.fstab) and flash a rom that can access it
or knows someone another way to fix my Problem?
What errors did NvFlash return and what files did you use?

That error looks like it's with NvFlash, if possible can you try running the .bat in Widoze?
If not I don't think it's going to take anything you send at it, can you try just writing the Blob.SOS and Blob.EBT partitions, then try booting into the recovery, if that works you can pick up the TWRP or Rouge or whatever recovery blob file and rename to Blob.SOS , giving you back recovery that might work.
This is a very strange issue.

I dont know what "partition 2 BCT" is ?
Is the Partitionstable completely damaged ?
and if its broken, is there a way to manually create new partitions?
same problem.

what now? try with unix system or a hardfailure emmc problem?

I'm starting to think that the eMMC is bad/Faulty chip. Which would mean a hardware problem and almost nothing you can do.. :[:[
Is RMA an option or not at all?
I'm essentially out of Software related ideas tbh, and you've been wonderful about doing things right :/
Anyone else have any ideas?
EDIT: May want to do this just in case --
Lethe6 said:
The usual... uninstall and delete the drivers, reinstall the recommended one (the universal naked drivers), and try again. Do this even if everything appears ok, there still may be corruption of some sort, like chkdsk messing up a driver file or moving it, etc.

I had an issue like that but it turned out to be a faulty cord. Not saying that's your issue but it is a possibility.

Thank you for your help :highfive: but RMA is no option for me.
Either I find a way to install a rom and boot from the external SD card or I must take the tablet out of operation, the repertory is too expensive ...
Some time ago I read a post of Prime Transformer where the vold.fstab file was modified, and the system ran on the sd card
but I dont find the Post currently
I will post my next steps further and if you should still have an idea what I could do, I'm grateful for any tip
The thing about that is you would need to modify the bootflags to get it to do boot from the sd card, and I'm not sure you can do that with your tab in it's current state :c

[Q] Problem flashing Elocity A7

Wanted to post this in the elocity section but not taking new threads. I have an elocity A7 (not plus). had it for a few years, always worked great, used
sparingly. from day one had it flashed to dexter's 1.41 rom. never had a problem. it has been sitting for a while
and I decided to break it out. charged it up and booted. nothing but force close errors. nothing really works.
tried to reflash with dexter and also with original rom. both go through the motions but after it reboots it's
exactly the same, no changes made. have gone into privacy menu and did a factory reset. same thing, goes through
the motions but after it reboots it's exactly the same. tried to uninstall programs using app manager. they
apprear to be gone but after a reboot they magically re-appear!! tried to use file manager to delete and same
thing. it's like it write protected or something. I used the elocty "restore from PC" batch file/imager and here
is what I get:

so I'm guessing that the "failed" part is the main problem, lol. anyone have ideas? I want get this going in a
big way. My thought after seeing that was the flash ram had gone bad, but it was literally just sitting unused...I
don't see how it could have gone bad from sitting. if it does have bad sectors say, is there any utility like they
have fro hard drives that can map those areas? looking for serious help here from real experts, I think I have
gone though all the basics. Help MUCH appreciated. Thanks in advance

[Kindle Fire HD 7] 3rd Gen (2013) SOHO - Bring it back alive with emmc adapter flash

Hello,
I need some help. At the moment I am connected with the eMMC flash of my SOHO 3rd GEN tablet.
I used the exploitee.rs emmc adapter.
The problem:
-The tablet want not booting anymore. Stuck fw was on it (no idea wich fw).
-I try to bring it back with a fastboot cable but something burned on the mainboard (If you had a 3rd gen device and a microscope pls help)
What I want to try:
-I want to reflash the bootloader (are there two on this device???) and the recovery with my emmc adapter to be able to flash the stock fw again. I want to give him just manually 3.7V with a power adapter, at the battery connector.
The problem now:
I really dont know how to extract the right img-files from the stock-bin file. There are some different img files: (md5 sum at begining)
Code:

Code:
Here is recovery from the old system:
7e781998261c22852f6bae53e02335c6 /media/galliumos/MULTIBOOT/Amazon_Kindle_Fire_HD_3rd_gen_SOHO/recovery.img
I really think the bootloader was broken and that was the reason why the device was still black.
So I really would like to flash with
Code:
sudo dd if=/sdcard/bin-extract-stock/images/the-right.img of=/dev/sda2
the needed partitions. Like when I let the device making an update.
Can you help me to get the 100% right image files for the right partitions.
Here are some informations about the current partitions:

Edit - SUCCESS!!! It seems I may have had one wire touching another so I tidied up the soldering and the eMMC was recognised straight away
I have successfully accessed the Soho eMMC and can see all partitions as in the attached image!!!
Now if only I could find the commands to backup the entire eMMC...

I found this post here.
So now I had a 100% bootloader partition and my recovery partition.
What is about 'xloader' partition name?
And the partition 8: "boot". It that "u-boot.bin" from my source?
Pls, I need some answers.

Did you still own your device? Can dump your partitions with dd?
Greetings by Idijt
No I don't own it anymore. But mine was an 8gb version, seems like yours is a 15gb version or something like that. I do have photos of my complete partitions.

I did something similar. I was using a cheap cable so I swapped them out. I got a LG cable and plugged it in, well it borked my tablet. Black Screen, I took cable apart and found a resistor soldered to a pin! Tested it and it was sending odd pulses, whatever it broke mine. Here is a list of what I backed up before testing.

I assume you need to dd a original image to xloader &or bootloader.
I can only get mine in usb boot mode, which shows as omap4470 windows and Linux as:
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0451:d012 Texas Instruments, Inc. I suspect I may need to mod & recompile the usbboot source. I think its hardcoded for 4430 or 4460.
*Your Method is even more promising.
I will upload the files if you need them. All except idme & efs as it contains my serials, etc. I *assume* those 2 files will work as they are stock and should have signatures intact.
Would You Post a Pic of the rs device connected to your Kindle?
I would love to find the serial and JTAG pinouts...?
any try this and did can repier of this problem
can you help me please

Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0451:d012 Texas Instruments, Inc. I suspect I may need to mod & recompile the usbboot source. I think its hardcoded for 4430 or 4460.
*Your Method is even more promising.
I will upload the files if you need them. All except idme & efs as it contains my serials, etc. I *assume* those 2 files will work as they are stock and should have signatures intact.
Would You Post a Pic of the rs device connected to your Kindle?
I would love to find the serial and JTAG pinouts...?

I would suggest reading from first post. I don't know allot about the kindle. I spent many hours reading the threads to try and fix mine. I would suggest googling for an identification guide, since kindles are hard to tell apart. To make sure you are in the correct place. The second thing when needing help is to provide a detailed description of your problem. You increase chances of more than one person helping.

my problem is my kindel fire soho is just read on pc omap4470 and idont know how to make short
and install driver on linux ihave linux but idont how is work iflashed wrong bootloader file
Hi, I also have Kindle Fire HD 7 Soho (2013). I was attempting to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, following this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ki...ment/unlock-kfsowi-bootloader-unlock-t3262770
I was able to get into fastboot mode, then proceeded to flash boot with the hijack image, but in the next line, where the system partition is flashed with a system image, I mistakenly flashed system image to the boot partition. I then did continue, before I realized my mistake. It doesn't boot anymore, but I believe the card reader emmc access would be able to get me back in business again.
I've read this thread, and the thread for the HD 7 2012 Tate emmc, I don't see anything pointing to the connections for the card reader to the 2013 soho motherboard. If there is something that has been posted, could someone put a link in this thread? I think it will be very helpful for those of us that want to try that method to unbrick our Kindles (2013, 3rd generation). Thank you.
EDIT: After more reading, I came across a thread which shows the points to connect an sd card reader to the motherboard of a Kindle Fire HD 7 Soho (2013, 3rd gen) in order to access the emmc of the kindle, it will show up as a usb drive when the card reader is connected to the usb port.

Here is another related link, it shows the connections using the pins of a micro-sdcard adapter, you should read the entire article because it mentions a 50k-ohm pull up resistor that is required between pins 2 & 4. This was used on a Kindle Fire HD 7 Tate (2012)

I am waiting on a fastboot cable first, and it should arrive soon. If I can't get into fastboot mode with the new cable, then I will try the card reader method.
@crackitopen any news?
I found a pin decription for the SOHO and I got a image.
Currently I had still the broken SOHO-8GB from the first post. But I got a second SOHO-16GB version. I could imagine that the bootloader ist the same but I am not sure how to read it and flash it in the right way. Could anybody help with that?

Hi Sorry for the late reply, but yes - I waited for the fastboot cable to arrive, and when it did, I was able to get into fastboot mode, so I had only to reflash those 2 partitions. I was very careful this time around, and I was successful in updating the Soho to CyanogenMod 12 unofficial Soho, Android 5.0.2 as described in that other post that I referenced.

Did you have some tipps for me?
I own 2 SOHO devices and grab from the first one the following partitions:

The following partition was to big ofr internal memory:
Code:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 2017-10-22 01:35 userdata -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
What would I like to do next:
I wanna solder my gtv-Hacker emmc adapter to my SOHO mainboard to fix it. Then I would like to flash "bootloader -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p2" & "recovery -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p7" & "exploit -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p9".
Commands to flash the 3 partitions?

If you mean me, no I dont fix it yet. I was on the right way but then my noob-Linux knowledge or any other reason seems to destroy the one mainboard. I had SOHO mainboard, one with hardware error and one with software-Brick error.
But I think you have another kindle, I had 2 SOHO boards and you seems to have a TATE:
Code:
>KFHD 7 2012 (tate) - CyanogenMod 13 (Considering an SFOS port)

I know we have different kindles, but raising a messed up board from the dead is an accomplishment no less
On a side note, and SFOS port might not be possible due to the nature of the Kindle fire bootloader. Each build just goes straight to fastboot which is un heard of on any other device.
Just wanted to say thank you to @overlode and @unimatrix725. Thanks to you I was able to bring my hard bricked Fire HD 3rd gen (soho) back to the land of living. I've made a mistake of flashing a wrong bootloader.
After a bit of googling I came across a thread on xda where @overlode shared an immensely helpful photo with eMMC pins mapped out - you rock! Using this mapping I was able to solder an usb sdcard reader to the eMMC and access it from gparted. Then I've found this thread where @unimatrix725 shared his original bootloader.img which I then subsequently flashed to my device. Now my Fire HD is happy again - thank you!
Glad you were able to sort it @pfoltyn, I haven't looked at this for a couple of years and have since moved on to other projects but glad it's still helping people
