I have tried all of the ICS roms, and always gets stuck at the same spot. Wi-fi is turning on.
It worked on the Revolver 4, but I wanted to try another one. Did a super wipe, and bam. Nothing after that..
Any thing I might be able to try?
Nandroid restore, if that won't work nvflash?
you mean use NVflash to do the rom install vs the recovery?
I made a topic about this, check my post (not able to give you a link right now sorry)
I also need help with this. I am trying to come from CM9 cornerstone build back to revolver. I have done a couple restores and I still get no WIFI. Anybody have anymore info on this?
Have a look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530612
You can try this:
- Turn off wifi
- rename the file /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf to wpa_supplicant.old
- reboot
- try wifi again to see if it works
**note
This might cause the tablet to forget any previously saved networks.
I have tried Outpoxs' method in varies combinations with no success also I have tired your method a.mcdear and also with no success. Mine is still stuck on Turing WI-Fi on... The one thing with outpox method there might have been something I was doing wrong.
This is how I fixed my tablet after 15 hours of trying everything. I downloaded the ota rooted full version of ics and performed a full wipe then made sure it booted into that rom with wifi working then proceeded to flash my revolver backup with no problems. Hope that helps.
Similar WiFi issue - still stuck
I hate to bump an old thread, but I've recently hit what appears to be a related issue (WiFi stuck off), though perhaps there are some twists to my tale - and I'm still stuck.
I have an early TF101 (B50) and have had it rooted with stock ICS for awhile. Everything has been mostly fine, but I decided to give CM9 nightlies a try.
Here's where my issue differs from the others in this thread. With the CM9 nightly flashed, I was stuck at the boot animation (for hours - left it overnight with no progress). I restored my nandroid backup and now I had the "WiFi Turning on" issue that others here have experienced.
I've tried multiple other ROMS (latest of AOKP, Gummy, and Prime 1.6), with complete wipes, and in each case, I was stuck on the respective boot animation. This completely mystifies me, but it may not be related to the WiFi problem. After each iteration of failed ROM flashing, I can restore my nandroid backup (the rooted stock ICS) and everything works fine EXCEPT WiFi.
Following the suggestions in this thread I've tried flashing a new stock ROM (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514658) and while that doesn't stick at the boot animation, it also doesn't fix my WiFi. I also tried a.mcdear's suggestion in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23446585&postcount=7, but I did not have the file wpa_supplicant.conf in my /data/misc/wifi directory. The only file in there was an empty file called "status." Just for good measure, I tried renaming it, but no joy.
At this point, I'm out of ideas and have a severly crippled TF. I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas from the community.

I've have a rooted TF101 B50 and most ROM's that I have tried seem to fail at this point as well. However, I did notice that when I flashed my first ROM (AOKP) it has the same stock kernel. So I tried another one. This time was Revolution 4. It seemed to work out just fine because I belive it has the stock kernel. Next I moved onto a CM10 Eruoskank ROM. It too had the problem of the AOKP ROM in that after I flashed it, the stock kernel was still present, presumably left over from the Revolution 4 ROM. I am now on Android Revolution HD 3.5.0 and it seems to work fine so I am sticking with it for the time being.
I beleive something in the flashing script of the ROM or the recovery program itself is not flashing the /boot partition properly. I am not a developer nor do I have an in depth knowledge of the inner workings of Android...but this is just a guess. I hope there is a way to flash just a kernel in the /boot partition from these individual ROMs. That would be nice.
If can access recovery then do a full wipe(system, cache and dalvik) and install the ROM again... that should do the trick... you might wanna try some other kernel also... there few kernels for ICS in the forum look for them and flash them via recovery...

It seems as thought someone else is on the same track as I am.

rstry this:
take unit out of dock if you use one. restore via cwm if u can, to 3.01 firmware, honeycomb. wipe all cache, data, etc prior to flash.
DO NOT SIGN INTO GOOGLE ACCOUNT.
Turn tablet completely off following boot. Cold boot back on. Grab latest official firmware off Asus website, xx.27
Install via CWM, and again wipe ALL.
Boot into system again, and cold boot back on. Asus should prompt you with 300mB update now, which differs from the official .27,but had same filename...
I found this bug/glitch a few hours ago... Somehow downgrading to HC and back to stock triggers this unknown update...
See if you can reproduce please. I also saved the firmwares to sdcard external.
The various ROMs require a supporting kernel. I would try obtaining the correct kernel for the ROM you want and then flash them both at the same time from recovery.
Resolved - for me
From replies here and other research, it became clear to me that I should reflash my transformer back to stock (NVFLASH down to the metal). Every other ROM would show the stuck WiFi issue or (worse) would get into a boot loop.
This was something of a problem, because my volume up button was broken and I couldn't enter APX mode. I finally managed a workaround for that (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890236) and then used EasyFlasher to restore the Asus firmware. Now the WiFi works fine and all is well again.
So, as a last resort - scrub and start over.
Cheers!

I also have the same issue. Bought the eee pad transformer with a cracked screen; touch screen did not work. I replaced it and everything works great! except for Wi-Fi =\ Any help would be greatly appreciated!
You should really start your own thread. That being said, first thing to try is to back up all your data and wipe it to factory using EasyFlasher. If the problem persists after a stock firmware flash, then it's likely a hardware issue. If it's resolved, then it was a rom/software issue.

Im 99% sure your problem is that you haven't got the right kernel for the rom your using, this is the usual outcome - wifi not working/ turning on. i don't think nandroid backs up the kernel so your basically restoring stock ICS rom with cm9s kernel. Try find the related kernel to rom your currently on. As for your rom failed flashing, you might be using a very old recovery try updating to the newest twrp recovery. Better yet join the dark side and move up to Jelly Bean, makes the tf101 a whole new device.
Hi,
I have had a TF101 for over a year. However it was used by someone else who upgraded it 0.17 and when it came to be me was unreliable and would often randomly reboot and then get stuck on the 'EEEpad' screen (before it says ASUS etc).
I am new to Android (been on webOS for a few years) so rooting etc is new ground for me, but I am pretty technical. Had lots of webOS patches and overclocking installed.
I 'upgraded' to 0.24 and then started reading as much as I can on this site after the reboots remained. I now realise I made two fundamental mistakes
1) Going to 0.24 at all seems to be a no-no from what I'v read.
2) I didn't do a clean restart before upgrading.
I'm not too worried about staying with stock but I do need the thing not to re-boot as often (15 times yesterday !!), so I am wondering.
1) Is 0.24 on a factory reset machine better for rebooting ? If so how do I get back to that state given that I have 0.24 already so can't reset and then re-install 0.24 (as I think I should have) ?
2) Is the only way to make it reliable to go for a customised ROM/Kernel/Bootloader etc ?
3) If (2) is true and I need a different ROM/kernel etc which is the most reliable ?
I know I need to do the downgrade, root, clockworkmod etc but can probably handle that from other threads.
Many thanks for anyone taking the time to respond.
1: A factory reset *May* help, but there's problems with official ICS anyway.. I haven't tried stock ICS and have no intention of trying it with all the horrid reports I read.
2: I would say this is your best option, put a ROM on, you won't regret it.
3: You will need to flash a ROM, boot it once, then wipe caches again and flash a kernel. As for kernel IMO your best choice is Guevor's kernel, (I'm using v20.6 and it's perfect.) As far as ROM I recommend ARHD or Revolver if you like stock look, and Megatron or AOKP if you like AOSP based roms. (its all preference here)
15 reboots in one day? Have you tried a factory reset yet? That sounds excessive.
But I have zero problems with ARHD 3.4 and Guevors kernel.
As the 2 previous posters suggest - I think a factory reset could possibly help.
If not then I would root, and install a custom ROM. I'm using Revolver and stock kernel with zero RR or SOD. I tried Guevor's kernel and it just didn't agree with my particular TF-101. I also tried ARHD and it worked great but I just prefer the aesthetics of Revolver. Good luck and I sure hope you get your reboot issues fixed soon.
Many thanks for the help, I will do a factory reset.
I suspect that won't work so will look in to rooting and custom roms etc.
I gather I need to downgrade ?
I know there are instructions out there so I will go and have a look at them in preperation !
Thanks again.

As you have had the unit over a year --> old serial# --> it has to be nvflash-able. So you have an option for an easy one-step installation.
Erm, OK - now I am a bit lost !
I want a rooted machine, Clockwork mod and a chance to try custom roms and kernels.
I seem to be able to find instructions for one but not the others, some want to put back stock rom but I am don't want that.
Sorry to be thick, and maybe I'm looking in a panic and getting lost but is there some instructions to follow to take it from 0.24 to being rooted and able to load custom roms. If I get to Clockwork mod I know how to use that to flash etc as I had it on my touchpad before I want completely to Android.
nv-flasable - what does that mean ? Can I check my serial number to know I can do it ? Stickers seems to have come off so not sure I know serial
Sorry for sounding confused and not looking enough - I really have tried but can't seem to get instructions that go from where I am to where I need to be !!!
Thanks again.
NvFlash
NvFlash is a utility that older tabs (With Sbkv1) can use to easily flash a recovery on the system. ASUS has basically two passkeys for the TF101 to get into APX mode, Sbkv1, and Sbkv2. Sbkv1 is the passkey everyone has, and Sbkv2 is currently unknown/locked. What Sbk you have is based on the serial number of your tablet (you can look at the box if you still have it, or find the stickers, also when did you purchase the tab, if it was before July 2011 then you for sure have Sbkv1, if not it may be Sbkv2) If your serial number starts with B60 or below (B50 B40 etc...) it has Sbkv1, if it has B70 or higher, it has Sbkv2. Find out what Sbk you have (it should be version one) then download NvFlash from Rayman's thread. Search nvflash unbricking released in the development forum. Once you have that get an NvFlashable recovery (I recommend Rouge XM touch recovery 1.5, since it reads from internal and external memory, again search in development.) Boot your tablet into APX mode and connect to your computer (Turn off, hold Volume-UP and power.) Install the driver, then follow instructions from NvFlash thread to flash the new recovery. Once you have this, you can place a ROM on your tab (All roms are pre-rooted, no need to install superuser) boot into your new CWM recovery with Power + Volume-DOWN, then press Volume-Up after a few seconds. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik-cache, install zip from... find your ROM.zip (don't extract it) and install! Then reboot and let it install, after booting once, you can go back into CWM recovery to install a kernel.zip that you also place on your tab (I recommend Guevor's kernel, make sure you wipe cache and dalvik-cache again.) Then you're all set!
Any other Q's?
Ok. I think I follow all that. Many, many thanks.
I will go to work tomorow and look for the box, but I'm pretty sure it was bought before July 2011.
Need to do something, sure it's cos I am now counting but today held the record at 29 reboots ! Four within 8 minutes at one point.
I think I will go Android Revolution and the kernel you mentioned.
Would be great to bo rooted as I have Titanium license as well.
Thanks again. webOS forums were always good, XDA proving so as well.
Nvflash was just released for Sbkv2, so just use NvFlash, it's easiest good luck!
Thanks for following this up with the latest news !
As far as I can see the wheelie setup is for LINUX only ?
I'm on Windows 7, I could set it up as a dual boot but am complete newbie at Linux !
It's not that bad to set up, just download virtualbox from Oracle, then an ubuntu.iso installation, and run it as a virtual machine within windows. Easier than dual boot. It isn't too hard to set up, essentially download and extract.
So ...
Good news is got it rooted, clockworkmod installed (using the Rogue version that was suggested) and then went installed Android Revolution latest version. Did all the required resets, dalvik and cache wipes etc.
Great I, thought, until ...
All day to day it has rebooted frequently even though I installed no other s/w - just what comes with Android Revolution. It seems to more frequent when the device has powered down after a period of inactivity.
Is it now time to start thinking this is a h/w problem ?
Will a different custom ROM be worth a go or would a different kernel help (which I haven't tried yet) ? If so I wasn't sure which version of the suggested kernel (Guevors) I should go for as there seemed to a lot of them.
Once again, thanks for any and all time. NVFlash was a revelation and really not that hard once I had the drivers installed.
Have now installed v21 of the kernel and got CPU tuner to change minimum cpu speed, wasn't sure about voltages.
Is there a recommended way to set cpu speed, governors and voltages ?
At the point of thinking this will never be stable again. Not even getting 30 minutes without a random reboot.
Try version 17c of guevor's if 21 is giving you issues, and any Cm9 based build will have overclock change built in. I don't use overclock apps, they give me problems. Make sure you SuperWipe, then try reinstalling ARHD (or a aosp/aokp/etc rom) flash either 20.1version6 guevor or 17c and don't overclock (default it overclocks a bit to 1200). See if it is finally stable, if not you might have borked hardware :/
It's charging at the moment, after I night of rebooting I presume.
I've got the SuperWipe zip so I will run that (which I didn't before but did do a reset, cache and dalvik wipe) and then put Revolution on after that.
I looked at Megatrons ROM as well - any comments on its reliability ?
I've not noticed it only does it when the device has been left for a few minutes. If I keep using it and don't let it sleep then things seems OK.
Megatron is really stable, I've found. I like aosp better too.
Those who experience rr or SoD can downgrade via nvflash to Any custom rom , prime 1.4 for example, and then upgrade by way of cwm to an ics aopk to make those problems disappear?
EDIT: megatron is very stable and have an awesome battery life. And the pop ups telling us there's a new update is great too

Hi,
Have been away with unreliable internet access but am now back.
I'm starting to think there must be a h/w problem as nothing seems to make the thing stop rebooting. The only pattern I can see is that if the device is being charged (either from the mains or by being plugged in to the keyboard) then it seems to stay up. Not sure if a certain battery level makes a difference.
I went through the whole SuperWipe clean and Revolution install, then put on the 17c kernel (At least I think I did About shows 2.6.39.4-g8fc25a9-dirty for the kernel, is that right ?) and am still have lots of reboots.
Tried Megatron with the same kernel and couldn't get wifi but still got a couple of reboots.
Any other suggestions ?
Or does anyone know a way of getting repairs done on this in the UK ?
You'll want to RMA to ASUS if nothing works :/
My issue has been plaguing me for several weeks now. I just stared developing for Android, so I'm a bit of a noob (forgive any obvious mistakes that I have made, or do make)
I have an HTC EVO 3D that I got about 8 months ago. One of the first things I did after I got it was root the puppy and flash a custom Gingerbread ROM to it. That worked great as a development tool for a while, with no issues, whatsoever.
After some time, I updated my custom Gingerbread ROM to a custom ICS ROM, which again, worked fine, minus the minor inconvenience of it occasionally rebooting when I would hit the debug icon on my IDE (Eclipse). That would only happen every once and a while. However, one day last week, all it did, when I hit debug, was reboot. I figured that the ROM was bad in some way, and flashed a custom JellyBean ROM to it. Same issue. I flashed another JB ROM(CM 10), with the same issue. After that, I've done everything that I can think of to fix this issue. I've tried flashing everything that Clockwork would let me flash (Dalvik, cache, did a factory reset, etc) I tried reformatting the SD card, and even tried 3 new ones. I tried reflashing the ROM, I tried 3 other computers, and even re installed Windows on one of them! In my experimentation, I have discovered that it also reboots when I try to record video with the native JB camera (I say that because I installed another camera app from the Play Store, and that works fine).
I'm thinking maybe a memory leak? I honestly have no idea.

Thanks in advance
Next step is to use the Eclipse debugger and read the debug output once it crashes/reboots. The output from the debugger will provide more information about what happened so you can start narrowing the problem down more.
It's a memory or cpu problem (i guess) . Try the cpu a bit lower. I hope it will help you
If you have flashed your phone allot, and you have under clocked your CPU first, it may be a NAND issue. It has been a problem on my end with the HTC HD2 after like 1000+ flashes. You should be able to use a tool to check for bad NAND blocks, don't remember off the top of my head what it was called when I used it but that's something you could do. That is all (if) you have not tried to under-clock your CPU first and make sure the ROM is not bugging out like it sounds like it is.
Another way to test your NAND is to try a SD ROM that runs on your MicroSD card.

Sorry if there was another thread about this, but i looked and didn't find any
Anyway friend of mine flashed some kinda rom he says official 4.1.1 JRO03H, but i'm not sure
anyway as he said after OTA tab is freezing randomly and gives android keyboard error
so i assumed i can unlock/root and flash some custom rom that will resolve the problem
after using AIO tool and unlocking/rooting/flashing various roms problems persists
sometimes tab is crashing during start up (android loading) sometimes just randomly by touching/using absolutely random
using tiamat recovery 3.2.2 and TWRP, it's rock stable in recovery
so i assume it's hardware related
any ideas, cause i'm out of any
p.s. it does have a sim card slot, but judging by FCC code it's wifi only
p.s. i tried to flash stock rom and lock it, still freezing and crashing randomly, first at wifi menu then at internet browser, guess something is really hardware related, possibly memory got corrupted or something like that
p.p.s now i'm not even sure which xoom this one is, is it a wifi only or 3g and maybe it needs some different stock rom? most confusing tab i've seen so far, there is just so many variation of this
thnx in advance

The wifi xoom also has a sim card slot but it does not work( missing the radios).
Can you get into recovery and which one is it (custom CWR or stock)? With the xoom off press power until the moto dual core logo appears then press volume down after 3 seconds. You will see android recovery written on top press volume up. If you still have a custom recovery you can then install 4.1.1 JRO03H again but do a factory wipe (very important to get rid of any possible corruption) before and a cache dalvik cache wipe before.
If you are still having issues you can fastboot the stock honeycomb wifi images and allow the updates to happen automatically but this will wipe all of your data. I can walk you through this.
i did mentioned recovery in my post, otherwise how the hek would i be able to flash it in the first place duhh
i did all that, i even tried stock image 3.01 let it update it all the way up to the 4.1.1 which kept giving me weird android keyboard stopped working error and same random freezes
most stable was honeycomb though, i could stay in the system sometimes longer before touching anything, i even let it on lock screen for an hour or two and wouldn't freeze, in ics and jb it froze on lock screen, sometimes wouldn't even let me pass welcome/choose language
i just don't understand how can it install without any problems and stock/custom recoveries being stable while in OS it's just freezing for no apparent reason, my theory is something wrong with video part of the chipset, then again i simply dunno anymore
i tried several times factory defaults and wiping cache before and after flashing didn't helped
Good luck
I've searched and searched throughout for a problem related exactly to mine and haven't been able to come up with much. Here goes: I flashed revolver 4 then flashed guevers kernel for OC capability since revolver parts is no longer working. Tablet works great and is super fast. However, I connected it to my PC for the first time since the flash to transfer some files and windows automatically searched for drivers. It picked up some acer abd driver automatically then automatically opened droid explorer (I probably downloaded this at some point). Also, the tablet will automatically check abd mode, without being prompted, when the usb is connected no matter how many times I uncheck it.
So I uninstalled droid explorer and uninstalled the acer abd driver and tried it again with the same result. I downloaded asus suite with the drivers to no avail. The PC will not take the asus drivers as the correct ones. It keeps searching out this acer abd driver. Now I'm thinking this problem is related to the kernel.
Any ideas whats going on here?
I'd start by either testing on another computer, or testing on the same computer with a different OS, like a Ubuntu LiveCD or something alike. If it works in linux then it's almost definitely a driver issue. If it still doesn't, I'd suspect the cable. Even if it charges, it may have issues with data. Try another USB port (from another controller if possible) on the computer also... you never know.
If it's caused or not by the kernel/rom I can't help there, never used those.
Today, I tried a different computer and it does the same thing. I flashed another kernel with no difference. I'm thinking it has to be the ROM. Tried to flash CM9 but it failed to flash for some reason. Still looking for suggestions on troubleshooting as I'm already way beyond my knowledge level at this point.
It was definitely something that had to do with revolver. Flashed revolution and am getting closer to resolution. Now I can connect with asus sync but my computer still doesn't see it in windows explorer. I've got the stock asus ROM and kernel. I may have to go back to completely stock as much as I hate to do it. I'm still open to suggestions though.

It was definitely something that had to do with revolver. Flashed revolution and am getting closer to resolution.

Aren't revolver and revolution old ICS roms ?
Try a new JellyBean one, TeamEOS4 nightly combined with KatKernel works amazingly
ROM (Jellybean 4.2.2)

KatKernel

Tips - Wipe SYSTEM, CACHE and DALVIK CACHE before flashing anything
Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache between each zip you flash and after flashing everything.
Thanks. I will try teameos 4 and see what happens. I knew my others were older but hey still seemed really popular. I have been trying to stay away from JB until Asus officially releases it.

They won't, TF101 is dead to them now, Custom is our way to stay updated now, not that it's a bad thing, ASUS stock ROMs were terrible
