[Q] (Q)Urgent.. Downgrade\Restore from ICS - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I was using Paul Burtons ICS port and I made a backup of my Prime rom . However when I booted back to CWM and restored the NAND backup it says succesful yet when I reboot, the screen stays black after the transformer splashscreen/logo.. I tried erasing all data and factory reset and searched and checked the original thread... I can however go back to the ics port and successfully boot up to it... any help would be greatly appreciated.. thank you XDA.

goodness ya noob.. you shouldn't have flashed that ics port.. it was extremely experimental. Anyways seeing that you tried everything I would have, Im sorry to say that i can't help but I applaud you for at least searching and checking the original thread. LOL.

wipe /syste /data /cache... basically everything in CWM possible, then re-flash the Prime or whatever you want

I did the same thing as op. But when I try restoring I get an error saying .android_secure.img is missing. Any ideas?

Maybe a fresh install instead of a restore?

Im back at stock and i still cant restore. Its the .android_secure.img. its missing from my sd card

i had the same problem i did the wipes in cwm and then restored and got a black screen as you describe.
then i grabbed superwipe from revolution rom(i dnt kno if its neccessary but it worked) from black screen i boot into cwm ran superwipe loaded my rom which is revolver right from the rom flashable zip as a new install. then rebooted and back into cwm then restored my backup. not sure whats goin on or why it worked it may be overkill but i got back to my backup.
if you need better explaination just ask

So i would use super wipe lite or the normal one?

Use Super wipe lite if you want to keep SD card contents, but try the methods listed above before trying the latter .

First....update Clockwork
then...wipe data/factory reset (in Recovery)
then...wipe cache partition
then...flash it once more and if it does not work try re downloading the ROM because there is a possibility some important files are corrupted...

All of which was available by doing a search ^
You can also add try a different rom to the above list.
I have done all on that atleast twice. I had just redownloaded the rom last night

this is a ext3/4 rom Is your sd card formated properly? If its version 6.6 ( the latest) try using version 6.5 first as this will format the sd card for you.. back up your sd card first just to be sure you don't lose your information. in CWM mount the sd card and copy to computer.. Hope this helps.
Already stated previously but worth another try. Install another ROM, maybe one that is almost stock. Then try Coredroid again.
I also suggest you ask in the Coredroid forum. Good luck.
Ok thanks ill see what i can find out over there

are you flashing through rom manager or cwm ?
I have the same issue, i used rom manager, did the wipe.. and its just stuck on the animation loop.
If anyone could help, it would be appriciated.

Found it.
Thanks
Got it going, I did a recovery, then updated with coredroid v7.0.. Works very well.. no problems here.
By the way, I'm digging the new layout.

how did you fix it? Im stuck too. All I did was update Rom manager and CW. I then tried to restore a backup. Still stuck at HTC white screen. Pulled a battery and nothing
i'm guessing your rooted...?? Well from hboot select recovery and it should bring u to CWM recovery and from there just mount your sd card and load a new rom on and wipe EVERYTHING and flash it...you should be good

Thats really stupid. Had I known, I wouldnt have bothered updating. I dont see any difference except the fact I cant restore my old back ups.
Yep, same happened here. I was able to reload the fresh rom (in my case, SHIFTS3NS3 1.3), and I downgraded the CW to the prior version. But still cannot restore the latest, probably because it was created with latest release of CW. Going to try another previous restore that I know was created with the previous CW. If the latest CW is the problem, it should be removed!

Stuck on Google Logo after CM9 flash

Hey Guys,
so I've been a lurker on the forums and on reddit for months now. I decided to root my phone today (was on 2.3.6) and flash the CM9 Alfa18... So I did everything as explained in the step-by-step guides. I wiped all data/factory reset then flashed CM9...
On reboot, my phone is stuck on the Google Logo..
I can get to ClockworkMod Recovery v.3.0.0.0 but I don't know what to do from here on to get my phone working again
I tried wipe data/factory reset to no avail.
Can anyone tell me what to do now?

thats an old clockwork recovery. you need either clockwork recovery 5.x.x.x or the latest twrp recovery. try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988686&highlight=recovery
OK sounds like a bad download. Redownload the rom and within clockwork mod u can mount to your computer and transfer files. Put the rom on your SD card and flash it again make sure u re wipe everything see if that works.

K so I thought it was a bad download as well so I downloaded Nexus MV 2.12.25 with GAPPS_ICE_4.0.3, and flashed again!
WORKS!!!
Thanks for your help guys. I think my problem was the outdated Recovery, or maybe bad CM9 download. Maybe both? lol
Thanks again!
Your CWM version wasn't compatible anymore. Had the same problem. Glad your phone works again.

HELP, Clockwork Recovery Loop!

I was trying to flash a eaglebloods ginger bread on my g2x... however every time the phone boots up it immediately goes into Clockworkmod Recovery and doesn't boot the OS. I've tried formatting and reinstalling the rom but i still get the same problem of the phone going directly into recovery instead of booting. Please help!
have you ever dropped the phone? Maybe the hardware button (volume down is stuck)is failing? I've never heard it automatically rebooting to recovery unless selected from the recovery to do so.
no i haven't dropped it or anything... the last thing i remember doing to the phone before it started doing this was clearing the cache and davilk cache...then it goes immediately to recovery...i just got the phone too, i hope i didn't brick it or something
you didn't "brick" it look up what that means in Urban Dictionary, before using it. If anything reflash the recovery with NVflasher or try a different rom.
tried reflashing clockwork and still have the same problem
tried a new rom? maybe use the clean up tool from in the dev section.
Re nvflash cwm. This has happened to me several times. Do not try to flash anything else until you nvflash cwm again. If that don't work use the rom for recovery in nvflash that is in the dev section.

Try using this NVFLASH technique. It should restore your ROM & recovery to stock.

But the question is did any part of the flash fail. Just like flashing a rom. You can get bad flashes. Happens to me lots of times.
Bottom line flash the rom for recovery through nvflash and it will solve it. I've softbricked myself wayyyy too many times and got it back the same way. If it turns on and shows any graphic its not hard bricked.

Make sure when you flash you wipe everything too, not just cache and dalvik cache

Problem with wifi

Hi guys
I have a big problem with Wi-Fi of my tf101.
Yesterday I had switch on my device and the Wi-Fi don't work! It is freeze.. and is impossible activate it.. the icon is semitransparent..
Since March i work with a custom room revo hd always without any problem.
Saturday I tried the cyano room but as the problem with the dock keyboard I come back with previous Rom.. but it's strange because Sunday after this operation my device worked!
Yesterday.. this bad news.. what I can do..can I restart the Wi-Fi software? Because I think that the problem is in some bug of Wi-Fi software.
Thanks in advance

How did you go back to android revolution HD? Did you restore from a nandroid backup or did you just flash the rom again?
In order to install that rom correctly, the dev says that you must use the superwipe script provided in the op here

dear riot929
thanks in advance for your reply
i had reinstall the previous rom by a restore from recovery; this because i don't want reinstall all, but if it is necessary....
concerning the superwipe...i can try to install it bt recovery and try to re flash the rom without any wipe...
this is the first step...
the seocnd one, i think that is only the clear installaiton, with wipe..not?
You need to flash the super wipe script then flash Revolution (Or your Revolution recovery). You don't need to do a standard wipe.

ok, thanks, i have read now that when a flash super user script, automatically i make a hard reset and wipe of my device...
in any case, in the discussion of this rom, i read that the super user is necessary only if i have not yet the wifi version 3.4.1..but actually i have the version 6.3.1.22...but maybe that this is a old "present" of cyano rom?
because i think that this is the problem...
anyway, i have the 3.2.1 rom..i have also downloaded the 3.4.2, that is newest..now i try to make both operation..
ok, i have solve the situation,. thanks for your help guys!
i have install from recovery the super user fix, and the room, but after that, in the first opening, the wifi don't worked in any case, and the device was entered in a kind of "loop mode" (the device switched on, but after some second, retarded).
i have make a factory reset, and after that, all works fine!
thanks a lot
