[Q] nvflash - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last nigh I left my transformer at 25% battery power in flight mode.
This morning was not able to switch my Transformer on.
After trying all possibilities to enter recover mode without success, I decided to use NVflash and reflash prime_v1.4.
However NVflash exits with the following error. What can go wrong?
Any idea how to fix this?
Regards,
Nikola

same error :s

Have you copy/paste your NVFlash command in this thread or do you write it yourself?
Because it seems to be an error in your command:
the right command is:
"nvflash.exe" --bct transformer.bct --setbct --configfile flash.cfg --create --bl bootloader.bin --odmdata 0x300d8011 --sbk 0x1682CCD8 0x8A1A43EA 0xA532EEB6 0xECFE1D98 --go

The difference between this one and yours is the "0" before "xA532EEB6". You muste have "0xA532EEB6"
if it dosen't work try with another version of Prime... (1.5 or 1.8)

This is the content of download.bat

I tried with different versions of Prime but the same error happens.
Is there any other way to get some more logging/debug info from the bootloader or to check if the emmc memory is not broken or locked.
Regards,

I think there is a problem with your internal SD. Because the next command after creating partitions is to format partitions.
But have you tried to download another nvflash.exe?
Otherwise I don't see anything else

battery is too low

Command is correct (it's in dowload.bat file) and battery is 100% (all night charging) but always the same error...
When I execute batch file, after a few seconds, screen turn on and display :
Code:
Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server
Chip Uid: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
And batch file close...

Yes, it was rooted. 1 mount ago i flushed prime1.4 using the same procedure (nvflash + prime1.4). everything worked OK until sunday morning when the TF101 would not switch on.
Regards,

Argh. I'm afraid that there is a physical problem.
If it was mine I will try to unroot it to see. Anf after the best is to contact Asus for return.

any other idea ?
otherwise return to Asus on Saturday

im sorry for bumping old thread, just curious about the result, since now i have exatly the same problem, i can go into apx mode, but when i started the download.bat, the problem is the same, nvflash just exit after that, tf screen turned on, and when i tried to start the download.bat again, the cmd only show "nvflash is starting"

You probably have an SBKv2 tablet which you can't use NVFlash right now

I checked the original package and it says B50, where exactly would I find if its SBKv1 or 2? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought B50s were SBKv1?
Thanks in advance

Yes you're B50 should be SBKv1.
You do have all the needed files in the nv flash folder?

I believe so, I have downloaded the rooted and unrooted US versions of the ICS NVFlash and I am going to try the WW next? Any other tips? Its still failing on me...

HOWTO: How to use nvflash to get the BCT from your Gtab

Hi,
If anyone has tried, but had problems retrieving the BCT (boot configuration table) from their Gtab, FYI, I was able to use nvflash to get the BCT from my Gtab! When I had tried previously, I kept getting an error saying that the command didn't exist.
I think that the "trick" is that you HAVE TO do it on the same/FIRST command line where you send the boot loader to the Gtab, i.e., it looks like --getbct doesn't work when you do a --resume/-r. Here's my outputs:

You'll notice that the .bct files in both cases are 4080 bytes, so I think it's the "real" BCT (not the partition that is labelled as "BCT" in the partition table). That (4080 bytes) is the same size as the ones in Bekit's dropbox.
For the above, I used the nvflash/nvflash.exe from Bekit's dropbox in both cases. I'm assuming it'd work the same with the nvflash from the Nvidia SDK also...
[Note: per another thread:
1) nvflash.exe --getpartitiontable using nvflash.exe from Bekit's dropbox outputs binary
2) nvflash.exe --getpartitiontable using nvflash.exe from the Nvidia SDK outputs text
1) (Linux) nvflash --getpartitiontable using nvflash.exe from Bekit's dropbox outputs text
]
The bootloader.bin was also the one from Bekit's dropbox.
FYI, how to get this working was actually "hinted at" by tcrews in a thread (search for "guidance" in this forum). I had seen it, but hadn't paid much attention, but I noticed this morning that he had the --bl on the same command line, so figured I'd try that.

I've had to exchange devices before and Tmobile will just exchange it for you they basically act as the manufacturer from what i can tell. I even bought a Slide off ebay (it was NIB) but after a slight gravitational incident the screen stopped working, called Tmobile and they sent me a replacement no problems (of course i didn't mention the battle with gravity). So I would think you should be fine..

G2X Factory Firmware
There's a factory firmware posted on this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037120) for the G2X. The zip file contains 2 BIN files. I tried extracting (via ExtractNow) and mounting (via Virtual Clone Drive) the bin files to no avail. I was hoping that there would be a recovery image lying somewhere inside those files.

You can not take that out. Check that there's no space between _final_emmc and _x8.bct. Based on your post, there's a space between.

i copied it out of someones post. i'm gonna search for it and ask the op to correct it. thanks for pointing that out. i got it sorted out anyways. back to stock recovery and firmware.
actually, it's page one of this thread, doh!
that's odd. in the post with this command, there is a space. that's where i copied it from. but if i quote the op, it shows no space. something to be aware of. i've done this alot and never encountered anything like that.

i know i can do the stock nandroid backup. then flash the stock recovery. then use soc to unroot. and my device will be like new.
i've just been looking for an easier way to flash those damn bin files lol. i got closer today.
the first step was the stock recovery part5.img which was successful.

[Q] G2X won't turn on!

I have a problem with my g2x that can't be turned up, it stuck when I flash the NVflash "G2X_V21E_00_NVFlash". I did get through once then it's error again. Then I followed the same instruction but I have no idea why I can't pass through. I hope people can help me with this and tell me how or experience that they had it and solved it.

Did you try doing it with the battery out and holding the volume buttons down until it gets past the bootloader?
Sent from my LG-P999
I did but it never go pass through it. It just stop at the " waiting for bootloader to initialize ". I tired dozen of time but it never works.
When I use nvflash for flashing clockworkmod, I know it's not identical to what you are doing but it should be close enough, I use these instructions and it has always worked:
===== STEP 1 - Flashing ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.0:
download the 5.0.2.0 clockworkmod recovery image
place recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-p999.img in C:\G2x\NVFlash
Unplug everything
remove the battery
Hold Vol Up/Down (and keep them held)
Insert USB cable
open command prompt
execute the following commands:
Code:
navigate to folder with nvflash.exe in it at command prompt, for me cd g2x\nvflash
nvflash.exe --bct E1108_Hynix_512MB_H8TBR00U0MLR-0DM_300MHz_final_emmc_x8.bct --bl fastboot.bin --download 5 recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-p999.img
You should see it send a bunch of files to the device and the phone screen should say "S/W Upgrade - Please wait while upgrading...". You can let go of the volume buttons at this point. Once the files are sent and the program is finished running in the command window, you CAN just pull the USB cord or be safe and just wait a few extra minutes, however it will still say "upgrading.

[solved] Help with NVflash? Reflash failing

Okay, I have done something wrong.
I had a stock transformer. I am using Linux and am trying to root and install recovery, with the idea being to flash a custom ROM after successful root.
I am using wheelie with NVflash. I was attempting to install a CWM blob. It was saying that it was written, but when I would boot into recovery, it only has the cold boot/wipe data options.
So this is where I screwed up.
I had seen it said that with NVflash it is almost unbrickable so I wasn't being as attentive as I should have been. With all the out-of-date rooting methods and firmware update exploit fixes, I had reading about this for hours.
So anyway, I was stupidly cut/past a command that was originally for windows and just ran it like a dummy. I thought it was extra config info and didn't look carefully. It looked like it was part of the recovery install instructions, but I should have been more careful. The command looks, on further examination, like a wipe/flash firmware, which fails because there was nothing to write in that directory, I believe.
Code:
./nvflash -r --bct transformer.bct --setbct --configfile flash.cfg --create --odmdata 0x300d8011 --sync
it formated a bunch of partitions and ended with this error
Code:
Formatting partition 15 UDA please wait.. done!
Formatting partition 16 GPT please wait.. done!
done!
file not found: blob.EBT
failed executing command 2147483647 NvError 0x4

I tried to install recovery again, but I get messages like this:
Code:

I downloaded an update from Asus, US_epad-user-9.2.1.24.zip, which matches my old build, unpacked the blob, and have tried to run the ./reflash script. But it just hangs as you see here.

I then have to turn off the tablet to regain the APX connection.
This is might be TMI, but I haven't used any of these Tegra tools before, and would like to fix this thing as I just bought it for my wife this weekend...
Thanks!
Edit: .21 ICS, and C30 tf101.
Update: I was originally using the all-in-one package from wheelie. I downloaded nvflash by itself and made a new wheelie directory with the new nvflash files replacing those that were in the all-in-one. I also reunpacked the blob. Now when I run the ./reflash command, I now get
Code:
$ ./reflash_sbkv2.sh
File recovery.img is missing!
File boot.img is missing!
File system.img is missing!
One or more files are missing. Read documentation and provide the necessary files to continue!
which seems better, I suppose. I am tempted to just try and get those files from a custom rom and see what happens. Although I will try and wait to see if anyone has some advice. My shots in the dark haven't been very helpful so far...still I feel like it looks more promising...
update2 My overconfidence and impatience got the best of me. I tracked down a system, recovery and boot.omg that was in Prime!2.1 (HC) and then added it to the wheelie2 directory. It began to run, but then still hung at the same spot.
I decided to reboot my computer, and I also saw that maybe I did not need (as you can see above) intialize wheelie before reflashing. So I cd to wheelie2 and ran the ./reflash etc.
It wrote and the TRansformer automatically rebooted and showed the gears and now there is at least working Honeycomb (which is 10 times better than the OTA ICS she had.) I am not sure if it was intializing wheelie that gave me the problems or a bad nvflash or did my workstation need a reboot (unlikely, but still...)
Thanks for listening for what is now no goddam reason!

TF101 Settings stopped working

I already had a try on this on another forum:
hxxp://www(dot)transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-help/25176-settings-stopped-working-tf101.html
(can't post links yet)
I have a TF101G ( sn:C20KAS035896) from a friend, everytime he went in to the settings it says: "settings stopped working"
I tried a factory reset, (from stock recovery menu), got it to reset, but now i cant get through the "first-time-setup-wizard":
at step 3 it asks to connect to a WiFi network, I select one, it asks for a password, but when I enter it and press ok it says "Unfortunately settings stopped working". After a few seconds it starts again at step one of the wizard..
I figured out it is a WW version.
So, what do I best try next?
After reading some here, i guess I get a alternative recovery and use that to flash a new stock rom onto the tablet.
But could you point me to the right posts and methods, because I'm not sure which is the right one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552303
Then this you were looking for ? It is with recovery 3.2.0.1 us or ww stock rooted full rom edition
good luck
It might be. It seems to be a link to a zip file. The contents looks like the contents of a standard firmware file. Only the blob part is much smaller, and there is a system folder which isnt in the standard firmware update.
But I don't know what to do with it..
I was thinking maybe wolfs method 3 could help me out?

But i'm still strugling with adb though..
When i run "adb devices" I think it should list my TF101 but it doesn't
After some more reading and trying, I've come to the conclusion I can't get adb to connect to the device.
I also have an android phone: a HTC desire, which I can get to connect with adb. But the asus is stuck at the "first-time-setup-wizard" (as I explained above)..
Though I can see the device in windows explorer (win 7 64bit), and the 2 mounted drives "Internal storage" and "SD Card"
I can get it into apx mode, but nvflash doesn't work for my version of the device its a TF101G sn:C20KAS035896
What could i try next?
I want to flash the stock rom, as mine seems to be broken, and I cant use adb
EDIT:
Just found out about wheelie, should that tool be able to do what I want?
androidroot(dot)mobi/2012/05/27/introducing-wheelie-nvflash-for-asus-transformer-tf101-b70/
My device isnt explicitly listed, and EasyFlasher a tool based on wheelie says it doesnt work for my device.. So should it work or not?
Do I need linux for this? I cygwin ok?
EDIT2:
As I understand it, I probably have a Secure Boot Key that isn't version 1 or 2?
There is a sbk detection tool, but afaik it only works on mac, and I don't have a mac available..
I have tried the windows beta version of wheelie, and the output i get is the following:

Am I overlooking something here?
Should I get adb working with my tablet in its current state?
Or do I have to return the tablet to ASUS?
Same problem here
Hello frydac, I'm having the same problem as you.
Did you find a way to fix it yet?
