Hey guys,
Been a while since i last visited!
On 2 consecutive roms i experienced reboots when i made a call, so i wanted to go back to stock ICS, but then i noticed that my USB was broken also, i managed to go back to 2.3.3. after failing going back to stock ICS, it somehow did not work with rommanager!
a few questions!
Can i somehow repair USB, cuz message says device is not recognized?( and cant root the phone, lost that because of going back)
Should i be getting an OTA update to ICS soon?
What are my options when non of the above work?
if you can help, thnx in advance!
Fmbl,
1) make sure you have the driver installed
2) make sure you have usb debugging set on on your phone
3) to manually update to 4.0.4 check this: http://andwise.net/?p=275

Several people in the CWM Flashable ICS ROM thread (including myself) are finding that USB Mounting/ADB does not work in ICS. Is anyone else having this issue? Specifically people who received the update OTA and non-rooted? It seems the Transformer recognizes that I have plugged in a USB cable, but the debugging icon never shows up, ADB reports no devices, and my computer acts as though nothing has been connected to it. I'm curious if this is a widespread ICS issue on the TF101, or just the specific ROM...

Updated from OTA here and USB flash mounts and works normaly. Can't test ADB right now.
I flashed both the FULL CWM US and WW versions today and found that USB is not working at all.
It'll freeze up for a second and then it'll go back to normal. --> no USB connection
I'll go back to stock 3.2.1 and update over OTA. I'll report back once I'm done!

Edit: Going back to stock and letting it do the update OTA works. USB is fully working now.

Are you rooted now also or just stock?
Wondering if it's the root that's breaking the USB connection.
Same problem here
I posted this in another thread earlier but it's a better fit here. I've tried the US and WW full flash versions on a WW TF today and haven't been able to mount via USB with either. Checking debugging doesn't help. Never had a problem previously.

I'm not having any issues with ADB or USB mounting on my TF.
daxtsu, are you unrooted or rooted? And how did you upgrade to ICS? Also, if you could please check under settings > Battery. On the right side, do you see "Battery Usage data not available"?
Nope, it's not the root breaking USB.
I rooted my B60 tablet after upgrading to ICS, it's working fine now!
This is what I did: I'm on ICS and USB is working fine.
Tutorial:
Step 1: Download the latest corresponding firmware for your tablet from the official Asus Website:
For example: UpdateLauncher_WW_epaduser8_6_5_21
http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_TF101/#download
Unzip the file you have downloaded. Put the zip-file onto your external SD Card.
Step 2: Shutdown your tablet. Press VOLUME DOWN + POWER at the same time until your screen turns on. Then quickly press VOLUME UP.
You are in recovery mode now.
Do a factory reset.
Install the ZIP you downloaded from the ASUS website.
Step 3: Restart your tablet. Welcome back to Honeycomb! Set up your Wifi and let it download ICS over-the-air.
Step 4: Apply the ICS OTA update
Step 5: Your tablet will reboot a couple of times. Then: Welcome to ICS!
Choose your preferred rooting method!
Step 6: Root your tablet. I used "One Click Universal Root for Stock Firmware"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198303
Note that this only applies to tablets which are older than B70/80.
You may be successful using another rooting method.
Install CWM
Step 7: Do a factory reset through CWM!
Step 8: Enjoy! Please click "Thanks" if you found my post helpful. Post if you have any problems.

Yeah, I do get Battery usage data not available. But other than that, no USB issues.
What was your upgrade method? Did you download the OTA, or use one of the ROMS here on XDA?

At the moment I'm running a ROM I made myself. But before that I reverted completely to stock honeycomb .21(including recovery, then rooted) and then installed the OTA dlpkg. I didn't have any USB issues on HC, stock ICS, or my custom ICS.
It seems the USB issues are only for people who installed the CWM ICS version as opposed to taking the OTA. Now I just need to see if there will be a fix, or if it would be faster to go back to stock and then accept the OTA...

I was having the same issue and flashed the us ICS update from the link below and it started working. I flashed right on top of the current ICS i had installed.

Throwing my voice in here. Used the CWM ICS ROM, no USB connection.
I'll try flashing the other US ICS on top of my ROM... see what happens... crossing my fingers... If this works, itohead will be getting my Thanks
I upgraded to ICS by first going back to stock HC via nandroid backup, then installing stock recovery, and pullin OTA update. No problems with the USB connection. ADB works fine. One thing however - my Vista-64 installed new drivers when I connected the tablet to it. So maybe the problem is on the Windows side? Check your drivers first.
Flashing that image over mine worked great!

Hi, I have a Nexus S i19020A that I bought off someone. It came with ICS and I have been using it for a good 2 months. Just a couple days ago, I received an update for Jelly Bean on my phone and figured it would be safe to update it, so I did. After the update, the phone restarted and rebooted but my settings would not run. Every time I try to go into settings, I get this message, "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped.". I tried to factory reset the phone back to ICS using the recovery mode but all it did was erase all my apps as if it was taken out of a brand new box but the problem remained as well as the Jelly Bean. I would like to return the phone back to its stock. I am a total noob when it comes to android phone since this is my first android phone and it came with ICS already. Would someone be able to walk me through step by step on how to return my Nexus S back to stock or fix the settings app problem? I would appreciate it if someone were able to help me. I also have skype if it makes it easier to walk me through the process. Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
Go to https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Find your NexusS version (ICS 4.0.4) and flash it. Then feel free to update or not to jelly bean. (The system will download the upgrade automatically)
All instructions are in the same page

Thanks for replying back to my post. Unfortunately, I can't seem see Android on my device manager on my computer maybe because I can't get access to my settings to turn on my usb debugging mode. I also can't get turn on wifi as well on my phone to download an app that will help me enable it. I can't use fastboot on my computer to flash my phone if it cant detect the device. Do you have any ideas to get around this? Thanks
Do you have exclamation marks in Device Manager when you connect your phone?
Hi ekerazha!
Thanks for replying to my post. I actually somehow managed to get my phone installed properly onto my computer and my device manager shows android now. With that said, I was able to use fastboot to unlock my phone and fix my problem and reverting back to ICS ROM instead of the Jelly Bean ROM. Im still debating if i want to update my phone to JB ROM but im afraid it might screw it up again. But thanks again for replying. I really appreciate it.
Yes you can update. Your problem was special (may be something u ve installed). There is no raison now u have flashed your data to get Setting error again.

hi, i just got my tablet back from repairs and i asked them to install ICS if they had to reset the firmware, and they did. now my problem is that i want to update to the 4.2 JB that came out (while my ASUS was in repairs for 3 WEEKS) but i can't. when i try to update, it just says "no update found". i have already talked to their "experts" and he just kept saying "oh, it come to your tablet when it ready" I have also tried to download the update from their site, but then when it tells you what version you need by looking at the build number, i noticed mine was IML74K.WW_epad-9.4..... and shouldn't it be something more like US_epad-9.4.....? i tried to install it anyways but it never detected it on the sd card. so then i tried to just use fastboot and flash it to the device, but when i entered the boot menu, THERE WAS NO OPTION!! In fact, there was only 2 options, wipe data, and boot android. there was no usb or RCK (or whatever it was) option. i also have several other problems, but i'll leave them for another day and another post, sense they may be related
Any help would be awesome sense it's obvious I'm not going to get much help from ASUS. Let me know if you need any other info too!
Thanks in advanced!!

The stock 4.2 (10.6.1.8) has an assert that will only allow it to be installed from 10.4.2.20. If memory serves me correctly ICS does not have the usb icon until unlocked. Also the new 4.2 bootloader only has three icons - no usb.
Are you unlocked? Most units that come from repair are not and can't be unlocked.
With all the unresolved issues on 4.2 I would not put it on my tablet at this time. There are many bricks waiting for a resolution.
thanks, that helped fix it!

I downloaded the 4.1 firmware and it detected it and installed it right away. I don't know why they couldn't tell me that when I called, but it fixed the problem. And I know you said not to, but I installed 4.2 anyways because I was too curious, and I have personally found no problems and like the new features.
Hey, New to this here and in need of help with my Xperia S Lt26.
I bought it off eBay earlier this year not realising it was rooted, once I got the phone I performed a factory reset and removed apps like moxier and superSU (which I now think was a mistake).
Anyway with the new update out my android system says computer required and when I connect to Sony update on computer it says I can't do it, I have also tried to update via WiFi with no luck as my girlfriend was able to do her update this way.
How can I get my phone back to its stock factory settings and avoid this happening again?
I want my phone back to how it should be, like it was never rooted, then I can update it the correct way.
I have never rooted or flashed a phone before, so step by step would be great, thanks
just want to add I tried to reinstall superSU and do the remove root on my phone but once I opened the app it came up that no binary was found
somebody surely must have an answer
Hey all, need some advice... I recently rooted my phone and found it wasn't for me (way too many apps stopped working). Because of this I tried to unroot the phone, but got stuck in a boot loop and had to recover from scratch.
Anyways, I'm running stock now and the system is back to being rooted. Problem is, I can't seem to update the phone. I'm not getting an error message either. Both Smart Switch and the phone simply say I'm up to date, but I'm on APB7 when I should be able to get APD3.
Is there anyway to fix this? Will I need to factory reset the phone? I'm not sure how to get the phone to recognize an update now.
Same here. I rooted my phone, installed TWRP but battery drain and apps not working properly made me go back to stock. Now I cant get any updates. I flashed APEQ fw yesterday dated June 8 but still dont get the June 17 updates.
I used Smart Switch to do an Emergency Reinstall of the firmware. Had to start over from scratch with my phone... It installed the lastest firmware though.
Been researching as much as I can online and it seems the consensus is simply unrooting the phone does nothing. You have to factory reboot. Tripping Knox won't stop you from getting updates but an unrooted phone that wasn't factory reset still won't get updates. Fun times. Last time I root my phone... Things aren't the same since I last rooted in Android 4.0. Now too many apps and updates etc. check for root and stop working if they detect it.

Did you use Odin to flash back to stock?

I used the Emergency Recovery function of Smart Switch which, from my understanding, is basically the same thing. I know how to use ODIN but it seemed a better idea to go with the official solution. Guess I'll find out if it worked once the June update is available in Canada.
