Hi is it just a matter of editing the build.prop in the ROM before flashing or do I just need to exchange the recovery.
Might be interesting as people are still waiting for ROMs for the TF300TG I know 3G won't work in this case...

keep in mind that if you flash stock jb or derived (like hydro jb) you cant go back so be really, really sure that you dont need that 3g
was only thinking of CM10 and derivates
I used Hydro 4.4 and CM9 (and CM10), all for TF300T, on my TF300TG.
Just flashed via recovery in the usual way.
Everything works except the 3G, obviously.
I did so as well, BUT they latest recovery is now correctly set to TF300TG and not TF300T - as there is a "model check" within the installation process you need to find a way to get it working on the TF300TG.
Nobody realized this problem before??

With TWRP yes, with CWM no.
Hi you mean installing CWM solves this problem already or is it that there is non specific for the TF300TG instead of just TF300T (so they don't differentiate??)

When i try to flash Hydro 4.4 3G, TWRP blocked me for mismatch.
CWM doesn't.
Sorry for my bad english.

I have the 3G version of Transformer - the TF101G. I was looking for a way to install this unofficial CyanogenMod 10.1 ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010903 from RaymanFX. Conventional method which is through Recovery (first CWM, then TWRP) - did not work - the rom doesn't want to boot. Yet there are many users reporting it to be working fine. Someone then mentioned nvflashing.. While looking for a solution I came across an information that TF101G cannot be nvflashed. Can anyone confirm this to be true?
Thanks,

The current method of nvflashing sbkv2 devices (wheelie) doesnt support the TF101G, so you can't nvflash it.

and problably will never supported or? Because i have also a TF101G, and can only enter APX-mode.
Final step was now to RMA it again, so that Asus nvflashes it for me, because they do have the right tools!
So maybe a chance that nvflash will eer work on TF101G?
Probably not, you'll probably have to live without NvFlash if you have a G variant.
hmm but they DO have an APX-Mode!
or doesn't that mean that it is nvflash-able?
If not for what else stands the APX-Mode?

It has the ability to be nvflashed, but the bootloader has been locked by a secure boot key (SBK) that does not allow modification. The TF101 was the same, but the SBK for earlier versions was leaked. Transformers released after this date had a different SBK (SBKv2), which wheelie was designed to circumvent. However the TF101G has yet another SBK (SBKv3) which the wheelie developers (RaYman, littlestevie, etc) have said they were unable to circumvent. There's been no news that anybody is working on TF101G nvflashing.
and for what is the APX-Mode necessary?
Only explanation for me is that at ASUS RMA Center they do have these keys and simply flash it with nvflash!
Could that be?
APX mode allows for a complete reformatting/repartitioning of the device and the flashing of custom images, usually its used to repair a bricked device or to install another OS (e.g. ubuntu).
Yes, the ASUS RMA center would most likely have tools with the various SBKs embedded that would allow them to repair the device.
So is there any chance that the keys could be leaked from there? Especaially the last missing SBKV3?
Maybe from a employee? Or could they not see the keys?

The leak would have to come from nVidia itself. The asus center is probably just given tools with the sbk's built-in and that they would be unable to access, so as to keep the keys from leaking.
Given that the tf101 is an older device, with several new versions of the transformer being sold, it is highly unlikely that the keys will be leaked at all.
And why does nvidia hide the keys in generally, and don’t give it to the public?
Ok its their chip but it would help many people who bricked their device to restore it.
I cant see anything that the keys are secret source code or what else. Only keys for nvflash command.
Cant understand nvidia in this matter...

Can you access Recovery or ADB mode? From there you can do a lot. I have managed to fix my cousin's TF101G by formatting data partition.

no adb in fact... the tab freezes at 'loading recovery kernel', wipe data also freezes at boot recovery kernel, android boot finishes with asus logo and continiuos circle spinnig with faulted MTP device in windows device manager with USB connected, usual power stops at eeepad logo..APX is available but have no tool to nvflash because of sbk...

Just bought a TF700 from Amazon (much cheaper in the States than where i live) but got a few questions:
(a) Its still on ICS and I suspect that i will end up installing custom roms etc as I have done with my GS2. I read that i should before i root or unlock bootloder i should backup using NVflash (i think mine is pre 30) but does that prevent me from going to JB or does it not matter?
(b) I use wifi channel 13 at home, but i know my tablet as i bought in US probably has wifi channels 1 to 11. How can i change the wifi to include up to channel 13?
(c) Are there any other diff between a US version of TF700 and a WW version? I note that on the Asus website they have different firmwares.
Thanks!

It is possible to convert your tab to the World Wide or other appropriate firmware by a reflash.
Do you know how this is accomplished?
If not post back and we can guide you.
Also I'm not sure about the wifi channel change, yet there there is most likely a way to change that.
The way to change the WiFi is via a build.prop text edit hack. It's as simple as changing the country code from US to GB
You must be at least rooted to do it. Of course if you take an nvflash blob copy then unlock the world is your oyster! :victory:

I will try and root tonight. Can you explain what is an nvflash blob copy??? I come from using GS2 where there was not a need to unlock the bootloader but i read that unlocking the bootloader (and therefore losing warranty) is required in order to install a custom rom.

Doing the nvflash thing will in no way stop you updating to jellybean however updating to jellybean will stop you doing the nvflash thing. Nvfash is security nothing more. You can recover from any bricks after you do it.
As for gaining root and editing build.prop I would suggest you read the stickies in the general forum. Think about unlocking and flashing a custom rom if you are not comfortable doing the edits yourself as it's all too easy to get into a bootloop (recoverable) if you don't know what you are doing.

Hi, I have a tf700 that I bought from the US and I live in the UK, I have always used US firmware and have never had a problem with wifi.

You won't but if you set your UK wifi router to use channel 13 you will Your US infinity won' see it. To fix you flash a WW rom or do the build prop edit and it will work again.
As for other differences I'm yet to find any yet. Other than wifi they both behave the same way.

AFAIK, the list of included system apps is slightly different, and also the other apps are at least recompiled for each country version.
Good news......confirmed my new tab is 9.4.5.26 version which i think will enable me to use NVflash!!
I want to try Cleanrom and want to make sure i get this absolutely correct (i dun wanna brick my new tf700!!!).
(a) Follow the guide to backup using NVflash (http://androidroot.mobi/t3_nvflash/)
(b) Install the official asus 4.1.1 bootloader (current version seems to be V10.4.4.23)
(c) Install TWRP 2.3.1.0 (follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1938129)
(d) Do i still need to install SuperSU or can I go to install Cleanrom directly??
Is there anything i should be mindful of before flashing??
Thanks in advance!!!!

You'll need to unlock it at some point too
SuperSu is included in CleanROM so not needed.
It's all very straight forward and remember because you are coming from Stock you won't need to do a full wipe.

Thanks! Ops forgot about unlock. Will unlock, backup NVflash, install asus bootloader, TWRP and then insall cleanrom???
Lastly, should i install odex or deodex version of cleanrom??? The verdict seems to be split.....not sure what practical difference there is between the two..............

I'd start with the deodex version but they are so close to each other and easy to switch between. Try them both. You don't lose any apps or data by switching between the two as same base.

Hi everyone,
Im new (and noob) to this site.
The first problem i am facing atm is I couldnt get my TF700 to connect to wifi after I tried to root it:
1. I have been using Transformer ADB Tool v13
flashed TWRP 2.5.0.0
2. After that i flashed CROMi-Xenogenesis 4.6.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2223492)
The problem was I couldnt connect to wifi at home but able to connect it elsewhere ( I was able to connect to wifi before I flashed CROMI).
3. So I tried to flash it back to the stock rom (4.2.1), but wifi authentication issue still there.
4. now im on 4.2.1/ build JOP40D.WW_epad-10.6.1.14.4-20130329 (thu my original build is
US_epad-10.6.1.14.4-20130329

I bet you are using channel 12 or 13 at home. The USA does not allow this channel so Asus restricts it in its US builds. Reflash CROMi-X and choose WW Build to fix or change your router channel to 11 or less.

Maybe If I could flash it back to the stock rom and update it, the wifi problem will be solved.

Did I notice that you said your only having this WIFI issue from your router?
Meaning your tablet will connect to other WIFI routers?
IF that is true its most likely your router and not your tablet. However here is what I would do:
1. Get back to root: Pretoriano80 has good one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1833212
2. Install TWRP via GooManager - Its very simple and clean
3. Ensure your current bootloader is supported by the ROM you are attempting to install.
4. Check the MD5 sum of the ROM you pick before you install it. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135620 (I know different forum but its the same for anything.)
Hope you have a better go of it this time around. Let us know how it goes. BEST OF LUCK!

Hi there,
thank you for your suggestion
I think i have already rooted my tablet and installed TWRP through fastboot method.
Do i have to root it again to fix my tablet?
Sorry Im kinda noob here
Thank you
My TF300T was updated to the recent OTA stock ROM, and thus lost the root that was previously gained through motochopper.
The tablet has recently become so slow and unresponsive sometimes that it's almost unusable when surfing or playing games.
Now I'm torn between two options. First, downgrade it to the previous version of stock ROM, and get root again. The second option is to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and then flash a ROM that solves the lag problem.
For downgrading, which stock ROM should I get from the Asus website? And what is the downgrade procedure?
Would factory reset solve the unresponsiveness?
For unlocking/recovery/flashing, what procedure is safe for the stock ROM (build no. JOP40D.US_epad-10.6.1.27.1)? Which custom ROM do you suggest that would have reasonable responsiveness?
Thanks!
I've read if you downgrade to. 1.15 you can use motochopper to get root back.

Downgrade to at least 10.6.1.15 - I've read that motochopper still works on that version for root access which I believe is required for any touchscreen driver reloads or refreshes.
