[Q] Tablet not detected by Fastboot - Asus Transformer TF700

Wondering if anyone can clarify, I just purchased a TF700T and would like to root it but I am having a bit a problem having fastboot.exe or adb.exe detecting the tablet.
I have already unlocked the device with the Asus tool and I am able to place the device in fastboot mode. However when I type FASTBOOT DEVICES or ADB DEVICES on the command prompt nothing is found.
The tablet is seen by the OS (Windows 8 64bit) - Device manager Iists the device appropriately (I believe)
Specs –
Windows 8 64 bit
Asus TF700T
Firmware V10.4.4.25
Is there something I missing? Thanks for the assistance.

Sounds like you don't have the right drivers installed. You can use the naked drivers or what I used the infinity root drivers I believe. Or you can have the Android SDK package nstalled as well if you want everything to be done for you that way.
I'm sure it's all in a guide in General somewhere....

BTW do you get a normal response if you type ADB DEVICES when the tablet is booted into android?
Are you in fastboot mode properly? Power and voume down until 4 icons appear, volume down twice to usb icon and volume up once?

The Device is in proper USB Fastboot mode, upon selecting USB option when booing the table displays "Starting Fastboot USB Download Protocol"
I do not get a response when typing ADB DEVICES when the table is booted into Android.
I have tried to installed other drivers (Even delete the old one) and everything the machines tell me that the latest drivers are already installed. I will keep looking for other. Please let me know the location of the recommend.
thanks for the reply

Not sure how far that helps, but I had a similar question here. I'm on a Linux system though. The fastboot devices command doesn't do anything for me. When I tried to flash away, it worked though. For me, I always have to give the -i parameter to the fastboot command, even when the description says it is not necessary.

I just notice something while i was experimenting. There are some version of adb and fastboot that do not work (Could be that they are obsolete) but i did not find any reference on that.
I had one or two version on my system that did not work. The only one which made a connection as the one mentioned by FordPerfect http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094746
From this i was able to use ADB but not fastboot (still looking for that one)

I run Windows 7 64 bit pro and I had trouble as well. If you look in this folder:
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B3VhrPabRj-FRm1zbXBSZngxUE0/edit?usp=sharing
There is a fastboot zip that I used. The guide stated you extract the zip to your C drive, and the file you wish to fastboot just put in the folder. I used this zip to flash 2.4.1 TWRP at the time. I just renamed it twrp.blob and it actually worked using the commands in any other guide. I did not have any success at all at trying to get my tablet to connect until I tried this little method. Try it if you like.

[Q] Blind ADB and seeint Fastboot

Hi. Fresh root user here. Maybe the exact problem was solved elsewhere but after 2h of searching I didn't really found anything to solve this.
I installed TWRP on my TF300T, rooted, changed kernel for Clemsyn's Elite Kernel 1.7ghz and didn't change the ROM because of WiFi connection problems.
Anyway, everything went fairly well until I wanted to push tweaks to the android. I then realized that ADB doesn't see my device.

As you can see, fastboot.exe can see my transformer but adb can't. I think that drivers are installed correctly (maybe wrong), USB Debugging is on. There's no error icon under management of installed devices.
I'm on Windows 7 x64.

Nah... I didn't even think of connecting in fastboot/recovery/anything with Pad.
uh... I just realised that while connected in TWRP my OS sees TF300T as Transformer and there IS a yellow icon. Even though, I can't install drivers or anything. Windows says that there he couldn't update drivers for this device. Any solutions? Beside using drivers from the SDK I tried downloading drivers from other topics but it didn't help.

Having problems with installing recovery

I have finally been able to unlock my TF300T!!!!! But now I'm trying install TWRP or CWM so I can root and I'm having a few problems...
I've been trying this guide ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845377 ) and I'm stuck on Part 3 step 3.
The command prompt is reading :
C:\tf300tsoftware>adb reboot bootloader
error: device not found
Then when I just plug in the tablet I can transfer any files from my pc to the table, but it will not read anything on the command prompt. Any help would be great. I've re-installed the drivers, and re-installed all of the software many times but I'm just at a loss.
Thanks again.

This sounds like you are trying to run adb, before plugging in your tablet?
Using adb generally requires your tablet to be plugged into the USB port of your PC.
Anyhow, another way to get into the boot loader is to hold the volume-down key, while switching on the tablet.
Hope that helps.

Need to know if you have the proper device drivers. You can transfer files from PC to tablet because that uses different drivers.
What happens when you type 'fastboot devices'?

You can accomplish part 3 step 3 without adb. Power tablet off. Power on by holding power and down volume till you see the bootloader menu, release both power button and down volume. Now continue with part 3 step 4.
Good Luck!

I am having the same problem. I connect the tablet and it seems to connect fine (MTP) but adb doesn't see it. When I enter the command above it just returns the next line with no results.
I loaded the Asus sync from their website which doesn't seem to have made much difference either.

USB not recognized + no Recovery

Hi All,
It has been a time that I unlocked my TF700t then followed the CM10 documentation to install 10.0 using CWM.
Recently I wanted to upgrade to 10.1 but it didn't work and ended with my tablet rebooting undefinitely.
I reverted then to install back the ASUS stock Rom from their website :
- I downloaded the file
- unzipped it (since it contains another zip)
- put it on a micro SD
- Booted into CWM
- installed the zip
I ended with a working tablet on the stock rom JB 4.1 but know I wanted to try again CM but I cannot access recovery anymore. I can access the bootloader but when I select RCK I get the droid laying on his back with the warning sign.
I thought I would need to flash another recovery (TWRP or other) using fastboot but now when I plug the tablet to my PC it keeps telling me that the device is not recognized. I tried to install the USB driver but it doesn't get detected.
Can anyone please help ? The tablet is working but I am afraid that it has lost some of its capabilities.
Thanks

What Windows version are you running?
You may have to uninstall the drivers for your MTP device before installing new ones as well as disabling Windows to automatically install drivers for a new device, then manually point it to the Universal Naked Drivers folder.
Or downlaod Android SDK tool ad through it the Platform Tools and USB drivers.
BTW: When you flashed the stock firmware you lost your custom recovery. That's why you see the dead Droid - it's the stock recovery.
If you can't get fastboot to work you can use Motochopper to root your JB 4.1 stock firmware and then GooManager to install the latest TWRP recovery.

I have tested it on WinXP, Win7, Ubuntu and another box with Win XP. Always same thing the device is not recognized.
When I try to update the driver and point it manually to the naked drivers it cannot detect them.
I guess that even for running Motochopper I will need to get USB working to be able to root my device.
Any help please ? I am stuck with a sluggish stock mod that buries the perfs of my device.

Then it's a driver problem and it's solvable. What do you see in Device Manager under Portable Devices with your tablet connected? Did you uninstall the driver and re-install it?
Did you try to install Asus Sync (which should give you compatible drivers for the TF700)?
So many driver problems lately... there's got to be a pattern to it, but what it may be beats me :what:

Sounds like a windows driver issue to me. You need to force windows to use the right usb drivers. You normally do this by upgrading thenm in device manager. You may have a borked windows installation to fix as well..
Try the ones I have attached.

Im having the same problem and after one day of research I could not find a solution. I bought a use TF700 with a standard andriod on it, no mod, not unlocked, no root. When I connect it to the pc I get the same error, meaning just a USB Device showing up. Tried different PC's with different types of OS, no success.
Did you manage to fix the problem ? I would really appreciate some help because now I can't use that tablet in debug mode to test my android applications and that's all I bought it for. By the way, is there a adb tool that works wireless and doesn't neet root access or can I get root access without connecting my pad to my pc ?
Thanks for the help !
Well did you install adb fastboot drivers on the PCs you tried? Did you try it under Linux? Do you have the original Asus cable you connect it with?
adb over network is an option under Developer Options in Omni and Omni based roms - at least the LP roms. I don't think you can get that with an app you install. Probably needs to be baked into the kernel.

First of all thanks a lot for your response, didn't think anyone would still react on that post because it's quite old. Yes I did install adb fastboot drivers, the device only shows up in the usb section saying usb device not recognized. I tried nearly every driver I found, installed the Andriod SDK, the Asus Sync Tool, the naked drivers... then removed them all (including the hidden ones) and installed just the adb fastboot -> no success. I have not tried it on linux, but on windows 7, 8 and 10. Android version is 4.2.1 and Build is 10.6.1.14.10. I now unlocked it using the apk provided by asus (version 7 , 8 did not work). Still for rooting I need pc connection, so I ordered a new cable today (cable is original Asus though).
I installed the Rom Manager and that tells me the ClockworkMod Recovery and TWRP are already installed. I also tried that recovery (power + vol) and got the same result as nacef meaning " I can access the bootloader but when I select RCK I get the droid laying on his back with the warning sign." Thing is, I don't know what the previews owner did, so it might be the reason he sold the Tablet. Can I get anywhere form that Bootloader ? Maybe boot as a Superuser and then use wireless adb to root the device ?
Thanks a lot for your help, Im feeling that I have wasted the money and the only way to get rid of that feeling is to fix the problem
Grab the Puppy Linux live CD from here: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...t/46090-guide-adb-fastboot-linux-live-cd.html
It has adb fastboot already installed. If you don't get a connection with that one the problem would be tablet side, not Windows related.
I booted using that Puppy Linux and followed the Guide but no success. After entering "adb devices" I get the output "list of adb devices attached" and than a blank space. So I tried booting in fastboot like you described in your guide and entered "fastboot devices" but that also gives me nothing. Fastboot works though (as it's already included in that image) so I tried a bunch of other fastboot commands but that just results in "waiting for the device".
I don't know what to do now, it has something to do with the tablet itself. Im waiting for the new cable but don't think thats gonna change anything.
You are not trying to do this through the dock port, right? You are connecting the tablet directly to the PC?
The only answer I have left is either a broken cable or one of the pins in the port is bent or broken. Get a magnifying glass and check them out.

Did you try to plug a USB stick into the dock's USB port? You should be able to flash from there.
Not sure about TWRP as I am currently trying Phil'z recovery (though will go back probably).
If you want to try Phil'z you can flash that via fastboot from the bootloader screen (hold vol-down).
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Awww, a pity, the dock might have helped. Oh,well.
When you are in recovery, the tablet is not recognized by your PC? You should be able to use ADB in recovery.
Have you ever used ADB before? On Windows you might need to install the "USB naked drivers", just search for that (sorry, I am a Linux user).
If "adb devices" shows your serial number and "recovery", you can run "adb push ROM.zip /sdcard", of course replacing ROM.zip with the path to your favourite ROM. Then TWRP should find that file on the internal sdcard.

You should find an adb.exe somewhere, not sure where you can get a Windows version.
Better read up a little on how to use ADB under Windows, sorry again.
Once you have the adb.exe binary, you should be able to run the commands I gave in my last post.

As I understand it, you should install the naked drivers on your PC before plugging in your tablet. Installing the drivers on your PC does not require the device, but your PC should recognize the tablet once you have them installed. Maybe better to reboot the PC after installing the naked drivers, just to be on the safe side.
If the tablet is still not recognized, try another USB port or possibly another PC. If that won't work I am out of ideas, sorry. Never used ADB under Windows and under Linux it just works. Ahh, I remember people suggesting to run Linux in a VirtualBox and use ADB from there, might be a last resort. Maybe a Windows user looks into this thread and can help.

Weird, but sorry again, never tried myself under Windows.
Well, if you can't use ADB, can you use fastboot when you go into the bootloader menu (vol-down)?
In that case you could flash the original Asus ROM via fastboot: download, unzip twice to find the blob and use fastboot to flash that. Once you booted into that you can install recovery again and then flash your favourite ROM.
Otherwise... no adb, no fastboot, external sdcard in the slot won't work and no dock... hmm, can't think of any other options right now, sorry!

I think there are also USB adapters you can plug into the tablet without a dock, might be cheaper.
And don't despair. Another Windows user should be able to help you getting either adb or fastboot to work. Or do a little more research, there have been tips and discussions on that all over the forum. As a Linux user I just didn't pay too much attention.

Well, if the plug in the tablet is damaged, probably not, as they use the same plug. Might be your cable? A new USB/charging cable might help in that case. I also had a bad USB port in a PC once.
There are so many things involved, hardware and software. Hard to tell, where the bad link is.

Im on 2.5.0.0 TWRP, is that good ? And i have same problem as thread creator - PC didn´t recognize my tablet and i have installed android skd and adb utilities.
EDIT: microSD card works, i flash rom thanks to it. But iam scared when i restart and it wont work i didnt get back into recovery.
Thank god I made it. I formated only /sdcard data so i just install ROM from that folder and everything works properly.

[Q] Computer will not see tf300t in fastboot

hey i've tried searching the forum and couldn't find anything the helped.
i'm trying to load a custom ROM on my transformer but i can not get my computer to recognize my tablet in fastboot
i have already unlocked the device. i can get the bootloader menu on the tablet but when it's connected to my computer and i go into cmd i will type fastboot devices and it doesn't see anything it just goes straight to the next prompt.
i'd tried reloading the drivers and this has not worked either.
any ideas?

Try using a different USB port or cable. What does the device show up as in device manager on your computer?

i'll try a different port but the computer does recognize the tablet plugged in when it's fully booted. had it listed as Asus Transformer TF300T.
don't have another cable i can use.

Are you using the full Android SDK for fastboot or one of the minimal versions? You may want to try a minimal version to get a fresh install of fastboot. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

Yeah you may want to give that minimal a reinstall or install a newer version of it.
