[solved] Help with NVflash? Reflash failing - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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 With all the out-of-date rooting methods and firmware update exploit fixes, I had reading about this for hours.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
command failure: create failed
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!

[HELP] Gone into rebooting loop then .. Wont boot !!!

Sorry if this may look like a long post, but i just tried to list all of the details, I really appreciate any help here
- It all started with the latest 9.2.1.24 OTA update, I went through the updates just fine, restarted and back in business.
- Been busy for few days, and didnt touch my tablet, it went out of charge, after recharging it, It started the reboot loop, it powers up , shows the Nvidia logo, then the ASUS logo with the spinning circle for 2 seconds or so then reboot again, ..
- When i lost hope I went into the cold reboot menu and chosen "Wipe All data" , the droid with the rotating cube came up and the loading bar is active under it, i thought it may take a while so i left it "OVER NIGHT" to find it the next morning in the same screen and very hot, restarting it would return to that same droid screen
- My final attempt was using nvflash , and flashed the stock blob.SOS , blob.SOS, blob.LNX, blob.APP (unpacked from asus stock US_epad-user-9.2.1.24.zip file)
- Now it's powering up then get stuck in the ASUS logo screen with the spinning circles (which are actually spinning), and sometime being on this screen it reboots on its won
Notes:
- It's a B90
- It was never rooted, and always updated with ASUS stock OTA updates.
- I didnt face such problem with the previous ICS updates
- I must have tried cold reboot like 6 or 7 times, left it to go out of charge and recharged it again, still the same.
Allways worked for me

make both steps and root/ unroot/ unbrick your TF101 easily (worked 9.2.1.21/ 9.2.2.3)
Try NvFlash for windows, it's easier and *will* work. Boot into APX mode with power+volume up. Flash the firmware.
So after it started bootlooping, it never went back into any rom?
I'm surprised that nvflash didn't work, but perhaps the bootloader isn't compatible. The nvflash part seems like a classic symptom of bad bootloader mojo. Be sure to flash the appropriate bootloader/EBT, as in, the one that came packaged up with the stock .24 rom. Update the bootloader - depending on your nvflash version it will be bootloader.bin or specified in the flash.cfg file.

Please no credit to me, I'm not part of androidroot.mobi and did no work on this. All credit to them :3

Anyway
That's unheard of for it still not to work, try reflashing each partition individually, and make sure all of your parts start witn MSM - RADIO UPDATE.
EDIT: I attached a bootloader EBT blob that I know works, remove the fileexts and you should be good. blob.ebt.asus is the one you want. the other blob has my changed bootlogo lol.

Which parts exactly ? the blob.* files "these are binaries"
I am planning to do it manually using commands similar to the Linux ones ... are these correct ?
Code:
Starting the NVFlash mode manually with this command
D:\My Folders\Desktop\wheelie>wheelie.exe -2 -o 0x300d8011 --bl bootloader.bin -c transformer.bct
Flash separate blob.* files
D:\My Folders\Desktop\wheelie>nvflash.exe -r --download 4 blob.EBT
D:\My Folders\Desktop\wheelie>nvflash.exe -r --download 5 blob.SOS
D:\My Folders\Desktop\wheelie>nvflash.exe -r --download 6 blob.LNX
D:\My Folders\Desktop\wheelie>nvflash.exe -r --download 9 blob.APP
Use the get-partition table command to verify those numbers are correct. (Idk off the top of my head)
Open the blob with a hex editor and there's some intelligible text in there (along with a whole lot of gibberish code too xD)
The one I attached should be fine.

I take this back, i get the error with the manual flash. I restarted and ran the script reflash_sbkv2.bat, and it reflashed ok without errors
But again stuck at the ASUS logo screen
Now i am starting to think the problem is not with the bootloader but rather the other blob.* files which dont have the "MSM - RADIO UPDATE" in them.
if they don't, then that's the inherent problem right there.
I downloaded other blob files from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683311
both the .21 and .24 blob.* files do NOT have that MSM... string at the beginning.
Any idea where i can download valid files ?
Idk, and those should work. I'm atm totally ???
Try blobtools, boottools. To make your own from a stock one.
The individual blob parts, such as blob.SOS and blob.LNX are packed android images and should start with ANDROID!. These pieces are packed up into a blob, which starts with MSM Radio Update and a bunch of header information.
You can use nvlfash to flash the blob parts to individual partitions or you can use the staging partition to flash the whole blob, which will then flash the individual parts to their various partitions, specified when the blob was packed (EBT/SOS/etc.) and the partition table (from the flash.cfg file that was used when the tablet was nvflashed with the --create flag).
Be careful!
EDIT: Not all the blob parts will have the ANDROID! header- I think only SOS and LNX will have them. APP will be an ext4 filesystem. EBT will be a binary file.

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?
hxxp://forum(dot)xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622628
(can't post links yet)
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:

nvflash on ASUS Transformer Prime TF201

Hi everyone,
The forum gods want me to post here first instead of in the developer forums.

I got the same thing. maybe the nvflash problem. It just display "bad command".

Asus TF101 bricked - blob.ebt file fails to write.

I have Asus TF101 b90 Eepad. It's locked in a boot loop. I have Rogue XM Recovery 1.3.0 - CWM-based recovery v 5.0.2.7. I've tried to reflash a new stock or modified ROM, but none of the methods found on the forums seems to be working. I cannot write the blob.EBT file, using wheelie+nvflash. It seems to format the EBT partition but locks during writing process, with the message: "Sending file: blob.ebt 65536/1454712 bytes sent" and that's all. I can't even format /data/media folder. Looks like the nv chip is write protected - none of the chmod methods worked. I can use nvflash or ADB so it boots in recovery, i've tried both Linux and Windows 7 nvflash+wheelie with the same result: no changes to ROM, recovery image or anything else. I don't know what hapened prior to boot loop because one of my kids was using the Eepad - i assume it started updating or something. Tablet was rooted but i don't think it was ROM Manager.
Have you tried to wipe all data, cache, and Dalvik-cache?

I have Asus TF101 b90 Eepad. It's locked in a boot loop. I have Rogue XM Recovery 1.3.0 - CWM-based recovery v 5.0.2.7. I've tried to reflash a new stock or modified ROM, but none of the methods found on the forums seems to be working. I cannot write the blob.EBT file, using wheelie+nvflash. It seems to format the EBT partition but locks during writing process, with the message: "Sending file: blob.ebt 65536/1454712 bytes sent" and that's all. I can't even format /data/media folder.

Since nvflash works, flash the stock ROM.. yous said it gets stuck while pushing ROM right ? Then let tit take time and leave it to work on its own phase and wait for it to finish. In my experience easy flasher/nvflash takes little time to complete. If that doesn't work then try pushing TWRP recovery using nvflash/easy flash.. BTW I also have B90 and nvflash always worked for me..

I've left it for hours to write the blob.ebt file but stays like that forever. I've tried to use nvflash --format_partition 4 (in my case is the ebt partition) with no results - it stays saying "formatting" and remains in this state.
I have tried to push other recoveries using ADB push. If a file is written to the SDcard - internal memory, after reboot it delets it. If i try to make another folder on the internal memory it says: "Read only folder" and it doesn't allow to write any files or folders. I've tried chmod with no results. I wanna use RMA for my tablet (i have 2 years of warranty for this - 1 year left but i can't delete the Rogue Recovery so i can return it).\
Thanx for your advices!

I just remembered something. Your blob.ebt file may be corrupt. A few months back I took a nvflash backup of several recoveries so I could keep them on hand. Problem was, when I wanted to flash a copy of TWRP I made it always froze. No other recovery backups did though. Try to get a stock fresh copy of stock Rom and use blobunpack on that.

Download a stock ASUS zip for your fw, fresh, the whole 300+mb file, run blobunpack on it and flash it (ebt portion of blob) through bootloader (EBT) partition or staging (mmcblk0p4) partition.
EDIT: do you have adb access? fully working

You are able to get the tablet into APX mode? If so, maybe try to redownload the stock firmware from Asus, in case you had a bad download. I used Asus 9.2.1.27 US as I have a US tablet.

Thanx again for your reply. I've already tried different versions of stock ROM and blobunpack to extract the needed blob.EBT file. I'ts the same error, stuck at 65536. Anyway, yesterday i got a new mail, a reply from Asus, telling me that the problem may be a hardware memory issue (the memory chip itself, into the motherboard). If i have rooted my tablet and replaced the stock recovery with a custom one do i lose RMA or is still effective? If not, can they change the deffective chip with a new one?
Have a nice day!
Yes, i have ADB access

Thanx for your reply.
I have ADB acces, in recovery mode, and even APX mode for nvflash. Pushing or pulling files works in ADB but the internal memory seems to be read-only. What can i do to make a full repartitioning of the internal memory? I'm at a point where i wish to do a permanent brick so i can return it to Asus using the RMA.
Have a nice day!
I'm not sure how to execute the binary for fat32 or ntfs, but I know most custom roms come with mke2fs binary with busybody. You could use that to completely reformat the internal memory.
Can get the mountpoint using this or something of the mounted area you need to reformat. I know by default mke2fs reformats to ext4. A quick Google search should return a result.
mountpoint -n /sdcard

I've managed to get around the "65536/1454712 bytes sent" by modifying the flash.cfg file:
[device]
type=hsmmc
instance=2 >>>>>>>> originally was 3
it sends data much slower but, hey, it works.
So now it's writing the blob files but, at the end, it runs into a new error:

Aaaand, i'm stuck again! I've read about using the wrong version of nvflash so i tried several nvflash executables, including the ones found in EasyFlasher or BRK Rootkit with no results. Older version of nvflash seems to send the blob files and after that the tablet freeze. When i re-start it it's back again, in boot loop, with the original ROM and no other changes!
Again i think that the memory chip is read-only, due some hardware errors.
I can't do nothing to change even one single file in the internal memory using ADB or APX mode.
See this thread. Their answer is post 22. Different device but same problem... hope you can figure it out!
SOLVED
My ASUS TF101 was sent for RMA. They've changed the motherboard. This confirmed that my worst case scenario was true: the eMMC became Read-only and there was no way to restore the tablet. Now it works again and is everything is ok. Thanks for your interrest in assisting me.

[NvFlash] [Recovery] With [Generated Blobs][TF300T]

First off I want to thank @lj50036 for his time and most of all his patients in helping me bring my TF300T back to life I can't thank him enough!! His original post on the TF700T is here. Make sure you go thank him!!
You must have the NVFlash generated files from AndroidRoot.Mobi for ICS or JB.
This is what I did and it might not work for your specific situation. I performed this on a Mint 15 32 bit machine. This is very important (EDIT: This has also been done on Mint 64bit); Ubuntu might not work and would not work for me .
My situation:
I had flashed the wrong recovery (TWRP 2.6.3.0). This left me with only being able to boot into a recovery that would not mount anything but it would boot into APX mode.​
What you will end up needing:
blob.bin
unlock-token.img
factory-config.img
bricksafe.img
Also needed:
Fully charged TF300T (Just plug it in, it will charge no matter what...If not, you don’t need my help!!!!)
Asus data cable
Linux Mint 15 (32 bit) PC
Stock firmware blob (from asus's website. Make sure you get the right one) Download
nvflash and wheelie Download
And fastboot for your PC
You might also need TWRP 2.5.0.0 Download
Mint
1) Lets start with Mint 15 (32 bit) Download and how to make a bootable USB. instructions this has got to be one of the easiest OS’s I have installed and setting up dual boot is cake.
2) Once Mint is booted you want to update it, and it’s a little broken but it’s what I did and you will get some updates. Click where the start menu is in windows find the search field and lookup update manager. Run it and download what you can.
3) Extract wheelie and nvflash to your home folder...
Extract your stock firmware in your downloads folder twice...You will see a blob (this is not a .blob file make sure you put that in the name) file rename it boot.blob and move it to your home folder...
Move the above mentioned device specific files to your home folder..
blob.bin
unlock-token.img
factory-config.img
bricksafe.img
nvflash
wheelie
boot.blob (we renamed it in the last step)
4) Next we need to install fastboot, this is straight up Linux voodoo, open terminal and get comfy cause that’s what you’re going to be using. next type
Code:
fastboot
it will prompt you with the command to install fastboot.
These inputs and outputs are from lj50036 post on the TF700T and may very from your outputs. I used the processes and it worked for me.
Lets get started
Start your device in APX mode [Power On + Volume Up]. Your tablet screen will remain blank in APX mode....
Bootstrap your device (enter nvFlash mode) while your device is in APX mode using wheelie....
I am going to show you the output of my process
Code:
sudo ./wheelie --blob blob.bin
[email protected]:~ > sudo ./wheelie --blob blob.bin

This is where I ran into problems that didn’t work with the TF700T recovery process. I could not boot into Fastboot with the holding the power and the volume down no matter what I did. this is how we got around it.
download the correct .blob from TWRP rename it twrp.blob then run
Code:
sudo ./nvflash -r --download 5 twrp.blob
I don't have output for this.
At this point I could boot into the OS, but still not into fastboot. My OS had the option to reboot to download. If you don’t have this option you could try this or this. But the best way is via the buttons.
Run these command in fastboot in this order
The next command is to just verify your computer can see your device

Great Work
Its nice to see that my work on the 700 will be able to, maybe help the 300 community out also.... Keep up the good work.... Thx as always lj :silly:
Thanks for your docs, only a question please, are necessarily forced to use "Linux Mint 15 (32 bit) PC" or can i use Windows as I did to generate the img and blob?
I don't understand this step, "nvflash" work fine to download this file, it doesn't work during the write from Windows command prompt?

In short, i cannot get fastboot but can get to APX (power + up)
Was thinking of trying your steps but I dun understand how to get twrp.blob.
Also, prior to my brick i flashed some cwm recovery. Does that matter?
I have all the output files from the flatline thingy.
Any ideas?

First, let me thank you for responding. Really appreciate this.
You mean I actually have hope even that now I only have a black screen + APX device detected in windows 7?
Should we continue this on this thread? Since its tf201 and not tf300
Or should we continue on IRC?

(please read my story (10th reply down))
I have no idea how to proceed at all and dun wish to do anything silly.
Should i follow what you did or this:
[GUIDE] nvFlash General Users Guide [Unbrick/Recover/Downgrade/Upgrade]- TF201
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50691902
-----------------------
1. Download an un-blob'd ROM (links below). [Advanced users can use BlobTools (blobunpack) and unblob a ROM. Make sure you have compatible unblob'd images of the bootloader, recovery, kernel & system]
2. Extract wheelie, nvFlash and the unblob'd ROM to a directory (avoid spaces in the directory path)
3. Start your device in APX mode [Power On + Volume Up]. Your tablet screen will remain blank in APX mode.
4. Bootstrap your device (enter nvFlash mode) while your device is in APX mode using wheelie
wheelie.exe --blob blob.bin
5. After wheelie does it's job, your device will be ready in nvFlash mode. You can now begin the process.
6. We start with the bootloader. In the case of the un-blob'd ROMs below, this is the blob.EBT file. To flash the bootloader, use this command:
nvflash.exe -r --download 4 blob.EBT
7. Next we move to the recovery image. In the case of the un-blob'd ROMs below, this is the blob.SOS file. To flash the recovery image, use this command:
nvflash.exe -r --download 5 blob.SOS
8. Next we move to the boot image. In the case of the un-blob'd ROMs below, this is the blob.LNX file. To flash the boot image, use this command:
nvflash.exe -r --download 6 blob.LNX
9. Next we move to the system image. In the case of the un-blob'd ROMs below, this is the blob.APP file. To flash the system image, use this command:
nvflash.exe -r --download 10 blob.APP
10. Finally, we reboot the device. After you run the following command, you will see the text "AndroidRoot 9.4.2.28" and your device should reboot in a few seconds. If you device does not reboot after you see the text, force a reboot (long press the Power button)
nvflash.exe -r --go

Thanks for your great tutorials. I did this process on my TF201 and it worked great. Trying to do the same on my teenagers TF300T and I'm running into an error.
When I do fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash system boot.blob I get error: cannot open "boot.blob"
Tried renaming the file, as well at using another copy of the file from my cloud. I noticed the file is listed as a txt file not a blob file
Never mind. Used the stock blob and it worked.
