Firmware update Teamwin Issues...? - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I have the update from Asus, I'm rooted with an unlocked bootloader and TW recovery on .17
Everytime I try and flash the zip, it fails. I have rootkeeper and I also tried flashing the second zip file that's inside the first zip. It fails almost immediately while verifying its size or whatnot.
I think I read that trying to flash CWM over TW could brick. Do I need to or is there a way to relock the bootloader?
Thanks guys!

You wont brick you're tablet if you switch recoveries, and you also don't flash them . Either way if your flashing stock Asus firmware in CWM read up and make sure you do it right. I bricked my tf300 trying to install the us .29 update. Haha

Since you went through the trouble to help out the OP, I'll help you a bit. Technically, you do flash recoveries. How else would they get on the flash memory chips? Just because you don't flash recoveries through a recovery doesn't mean the process of installing them gets a new name.
Flashing = writing images/files to flash memory. How you do it doesn't matter.

I'm so sorry for my wording. guess I should have made it so a complete retard could follow what I was asking... I had zero time to write this question and just dumped it out there. Either way, I think you knew what I was saying. So yeah... thanks for the help! ← sarcasm? Naaaah....
Also, its kinda interesting how when you root devices using methods like ADB, to get a recovery.img on the system, the command is usually something like " fastboot FLASH recovery recovery.img "
Don't ya think...?

I'm not sure how what I said was insulting, but I am quite sorry you took offense to what I said, and felt it was enough to call me a retard for. I do know that the file is flashed, but, like you I was short on time, and meant that you dont flash in in recovery. generally, unless its made to be a temp flash done in recovery.
At least EndlessDissent politely corrected me on my lack of abilty to communicate normally. and informed while doing it!

Have you checked the md5sum to make sure it matches the correct value? It could be a bad download.

[Q] Bricked friends TF

Just bricked a friends TF. Is it possible to unbrick it to stock rom ?
He just updated to latest 3.2WW ROM prior to this.
How exactly did you brick it? What were you doing at the time?
I managed to wipe all partitions .. for various reasons I ran download.sh which apparently formatted the whole TF and reformated it.
At this point I'm downloading the latest tf_rootkit_31 to get the cwm recovery image from it.. but I have my douts that this will work.
I have downloaded the last release from ASUS website and tried to nvflash on the blob files.. but it stays in APX mode..
I have PRIME 1.6r2 but I have no clue how to get this on the device .. without CWM ..
As i thought... didnt work.. but the download.sh wants system.img which I don't have.. :|
think I managed to get it unbricked.
I dumped recovery and system from my working TF101 .. seems to be booting now at least..
This thread can be locked or deleted... as mod see fit
Basically I managed to run the wrong script as I were about to root the TF. Instead of root.sh (self made) that run the needed commands to download, patch and send in the patched boot image back to the TF.
Download.sh is from someone else, don't really who.. but it does wipe the device and flash in boot.img, system.img and recovery.img ..
After fetching the needed files from a working TF101 and flashed it back to the device it is now up and running, but all apps need to be re-installed and setup again.. thankfully he made a mybackup pro backup prior to updating the device.. so I hope he'll managed to restore most of the device back to its original again.
What I love about the TF is that it seems impossible to permabrick. Glad to hear you got it going again.
Glad to hear it. I bricked mine not more than 5 hours ago, and sorted that too.
It's not very nice but you learn as you go I suppose..
(mmh I hate the new mouse-pointer )

Need to pick this up again.. for some reason he doesn't have the 8.4.4.11/8.6.5.7 boot screen.. the one before the boot animation comes into play.. the one he has is the same as 8.4.4.5 .. any1 know the reason and/or a possible fix for this ?

You have to update the bootloader too. It's the EBT partition in the flash.cfg. add something like filename=blob.EBT
You can extract the EBT/bootloader partition from the blob in the 8656 update. Rayman has put out some blob tools for extraction.

You might want to update the bootloader flag in the command line too "-bl blob.EBT" I'm not positive but I think this prevents bootloops since the images are flashed with the same bootloader that it is writing.

Thanks a lot for the answers. I haven't got around to do this yet so I have some further questions.. is there a way to do this without wiping the device ?
Also it seems like his Transformer think it's a mobile phone.. eh yea it has like EMEI column and stuff in the information tab.. will the bootloader fix that too ?
the update to 8.6.5.9 didn't appear automatically so we are currently manually updating it to that release.. might fix things.. we'll see..
Edit1: NM! the update to 8.6.5.9 fixed all the issues that were previously

9/16 update failed

Just got an update for my TF700T today, Jelly Bean? IDK CAUSE IT FAILED.
I am rooted, can that be the cause? can we unroot? I've done OTAs on other devices while root and it just kills root.... Why would it fail?
After it rebooted it said update failed. Then when I tried again it said "There is no update available for your device currently." WTF.
Any help would be great, thanks!

Bricked my TF300t

i screwed up and tried to change roms after unlocking and the flashing of recovery well after flashing recovery after going to install a rom i hit format and lost everything. that led me to a asus boot up screen that was boolean in other words it kept rebooting itself. dont know what i did other then try a couple recovery tools found in our forums for my tablet that got rid of the constant reboot bu now i am stuck on the asus sreen i dont know if that in a better state then it was, or worse, i am despereate to fix my spendy paper weight , i am willing to make a healthy donation to the person or persons that are willing to give me there time and hard effort to fix it. pm me or email me [email protected] ill give my phone number via email cause i dont have a mic for the pc...
Can this be moved to the QA
wrong section, Sir - this is definitely Q&A!
but you could try to set up fastboot and then flash the latest stock ROM for your SKU (in your case probably US) with the command
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash staging blob
you can get the blob from the asus site, just unzip it until you get a file called blob who should be about some hundred mbs :good:
Sounds like you just have a boot loop. Boot recovery and flash a custom or stock ROM. Above post should also work, so use that if you prefer fast boot.
Also please ask a moderator to move this to Q&A.

What the guys above say. You wiped data, so there is no operating system on your tablet. Not bricked or anything.
One tip, never use these tools, learn to do it yourself so you understand what's happening and you don't get scared with these things. There's a thread that explains the process.

CWM

What is the best way to install CWM on my TF300T, I am on the 4.2 bootloader, and I tried to put the CORRECT JB 4.2 version of TWRP 2.5.0 and it is like a split screen and will not function. Some time before that it asked for a password when I booted the recovery. I just want to start fresh with Clockwork Mod I guess.
Please point me in the correct direction.
Thank you

Not to be a douche but use the search function. And use twrp. Cwm is too buggy on the tf300. Its very easy for it to bug out and brick your pad.

If you searched you would have seen all your questions are answered in the stickies. Also you would have seen twrp is recommended over cwm due to cwm bricking devices. I'm sure you would prefer that not to happen.

Update to the most recent boot loader. I'm trying to tell you. You have to use twrp. Cwm bricks the tf300t while flashing ROMs. Everyone advises not to use it. I don't even think there's a guide here for it since its too much of a liability. If your getting a split screen you are doing something wrong. Reading everything and doing everything exactly right is the name of the game here. The tf300 is way to easy to brick. If your having problems just installing a custom recovery your best to just stay away from flashing on this device. You have to pay attention to boot loader version and firmware version or you are going to get errors. Your lucky you haven't hard bricked yet.
I know what I'm talking about. I didn't just fall off the turnip truck.

This is defiantly one of the most sensitive device to do everything on. Asus wasn't to friendly. Its like they want you to brick. And my bad about the rudeness extreme lack of sleep has made me very irritable.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Indeed flashing cwm is another way to brick the TF300. Lucky you didn't flash it.
The problem is that the latest bootloader changes the partition table on the TF300 - it makes /system larger in order to accommodate the larger Asus ROM. The issue is most of the legacy recoveries including the non 4.2 twrp and cwm don't understand this and thus the device becomes bricked as the partition table is now messed up.

Just download the factory image and unpack the bootloader image. If it re-locks, which it shouldn't, but if it does, just unlock it again as you did when you first unlocked it.
To flash the image, use command prompt (Windows) and cd into the folder that the image is in, then do "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader_file_name.IMG"

Yeah, figured it couldn't flash a BL, not sure it can be done as it needs to go Into boot loader mode over recovery. Recovery has it's own kernel to boot up, as for boot loader I think it's a different method that boots into that particular option. Saying that, I could be wrong, never really had any need to look into it in all honesty.

If you absolutely need the update bootloader, you could try flashing the image in recovery, but I feel like that will brick your device.

You, cant flash anything without custom recovery or root, and most importantly the USB and Computer. Anyways, to flash bootloader HHZ12D, which is the newest one you have to download the factory image from the Google Dev website, which is 556mb, once you extract it the file will be there named bootloader-hammerhead-hhz12d
Can anyone answer my question about the advantage to updating the boot loader?

Listen,
if stars are lit
it means - there is someone who needs it.
It means - someone wants them to be,
that someone deems those specks of spit
magnificent.
And overwrought,
in the swirls of afternoon dust,
he bursts in on God,
afraid he might be already late.
In tears,
he kisses God's sinewy hand
and begs him to guarantee
that there will definitely be a star.
He swears
he won't be able to stand that starless ordeal.
Later,
He wanders around, worried,
but outwardly calm.
And to everyone else, he says:
'Now,
it's all right.
You are no longer afraid,
are you?'
Listen,
if stars are lit,
it means - there is someone who needs it.
It means it is essential
that every evening
at least one star should ascend

Useless.
Back on topic, forget about updating bootloader through a recovery or flashify. When you get access to a PC, then update the bootloader.

all i know, is its needed to flash CM12 unofficial at this point, so there's one reason
I know you can flash a .img directly in TWRP, but I haven't tried for the bootloader.
Also, flashing CM will usually flash the bootloader + radio and maybe even the recovery anyways?
