I have transformer tf101 (Honeycomb 3.2.1 + 16GB + Dock) that I purchased in August 2011. For first 6 months I was on stock ROM and everything was working fine. After that I flashed Android Revolution HD 2.2.0 on my tablet and then it started behaving crazily . Whenever I open browser it will automatically start zooming in/out, scrolling. It will totally go haywire and will start clicking left/right.
I searched on net and found that some of other unlucky guys are facing the same issue . I have attached a .txt file that contains the link to you tube video depicting the problem.
I have tried many ways such as using superwipe script and then reinstalling the ROM's. Even, I have tried with new ROMS(ICS one's) that are there but still the problem does not seem to go away. I have searched a lot but could not find the solution to this issue. Can somebody please guide me how to get rid of this problem. I believe this is the best android forum where I am hoping that someone will help me with this problem.
This is really basic but have you tried cleaning the screen?
Other then that, have you tried going back to a HC rom and see if you don't have any issues. I understand you want the latest and greatest version rom but to determine a fix and narrow down the problem maybe you should try all the alternatives.
Thanks for replying. I had cleaned up my screen and there was not a single app/widget on my homescreens. I flashed back to HC ROM but still the problem persist . I have tried all ways of flashing th ROM's but still the problem doesn't seem to go away. I have not tried the stock ROM for HC that came with my tablet (i didn't take the backup when I flashed new ROM).
Looking at the issue it seems to me as if this problem is software related rather than the hardware.If this would have been hardware related then I should have got this on day1 of my purchase.

And dont forget to wash your hands (Im serious, that actually affects the responsiveness of the screen)
I cleaned my screen (Literally ). The problem is still there . Can it be because of the browser. I am currently using Dolphin HD browser for my browsing. I will probably install stock browser and will check with it.
Your text file is rubbish too...no link, it's actually the HTML code for an error 404..which is funny.......not only is it not a working link, or even a link at all, it's a 404 in HTML..LMAO
Sorry for the bad attachment. I have the link.doc containing the link.
Yesterday, I tried with the stock ROM and everything was working fine till the point I connected my tablet to Wifi and upgraded my Google Market to Play store. As soon as the app was updated the same problem started recurring. Now I have uninstalled the updates for google play store but the problem is still there. But the good part is that the frequency of the random zooming/clicking has decreased and it happens in browser only. Earlier it was happening in all the apps. Can somebody please direct me to the link to US stock ROM (for HC 3.2.1). As of now I am running WW_ stock rom. I just want to try out the same with US_ stock ROM as well.
First of all, don't use super wipe script. Just wipe normally with CWM.
Do these options in CWM
1. factory reset/wipe data
2. clear cache partition
3. wipe dalvik cache
4. mounts and storage -> format /system
5. mounts and storage -> format /data (this is done by factory reset but just to be sure)
Get the official ICS rom from Asus' website. US or WW doesn't matter.
Flash it with CWM after doing the wipe procedure above.
Don't let google sync or anything restore any kind of back up.
If the same problem happens again, you got a problem that requires RMA.
Honestly it already sounds like you need to RMA but you should make sure before wasting money and time on RMA.
I will try these steps today. I never did these 2 steps while flashing ROM's
1. clear cache partition
2. wipe dalvik cache
I am just curious to know as to how this problem started when it was not there till the point I flashed a custom ROM.
I have a big problem with RMA. I purchased my tablet in US and so it has North American Warranty. I am not residing in US. Thus for RMA, I have to ship my tablet back to US which will be expensive as well as an overhead . So I am planning of trying all the possible steps before I have to ask the Asus support in my native country. Please let me know if you know any stable version of Stock ROM. I read and found that some of the stock ROM's are having serious issues with Wifi/GPS etc.

YOU HAVE TO DO THOSE. Wipe dalvik cache is under Advanced.
I am using CWM 3.2.0.1 for recovery.
I am just hoping that it should be software/flashing issue.I just don't want to go for RMA .

i would first get on the newest version of recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16557195
it is touch based, but i just went into cwm and the regular method of volume and power keys work fine. AND you have to store the rom on the internal sd card in order to flash, it can't access the external card once you update.
and personally i'd wipe EVERYTHING like 3 times seems kinda of the standard.. i'm super ocd so i wipe it all 5 times before i flash.. might want to pick up an ASOP rom like
EOS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520764
or KANG:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542302
see how that works.. could always pick up the stock ASUS rom though
FYI: to flash those new EOS and KANG roms you NEED to be on that version of cwm i linked
I have tried with various ROM's that are there in Development section but the problem does not seem to go away. I will upgrade my CWM and will check with stock ROM first. Once this is done then I will go for other versions of ROM's.
Just a quick question, for flashing the stock ROM for ICS i.e 9.2.17, I have to download the firmware from ASUS website and then flash it normally the way we do for other ROM's ?

All this could have been caused by you never wiping cache and dalvik cache.
Yea, download the ICS firmware from Asus website. It will be in a zip. You extract it once. It will have another zip. That's the flashable zip.
You flash it in CWM like you would do for any other ROM.
Yes, I never wiped cache and dalvik cache.
I will check this today and will post my observations. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that this should solve the problem.
Thanks for the info.
Thanks horndroid for the lovely info...It worked.
I cleared the cache and dalvik cache and then I flashed the new revolution 3.2.0 (ICS) Rom and as of no complaints. I have been using the tablet continuously for last 3-4 hours and no issues as of now. I am hoping that it continues to work the way it is functioning right now. I am loving my transformer again . I will use it for few more hours and will update my observations. I am still keeping my fingers crossed.
Moreover, Revolution 3.2.0 is awesome(Thanks to Mike and his team). Very stable and the GPS is awesome. Sitting in my room it acquired my position(No Wifi) within seconds.

Yes. This is worth pointing out again and again.
Most roms (in my experience) wont even boot unless you wipe cache and dalvik.
And the roms that do boot runs like ****.
Now I have used my tablet for 16 hours..No issues..Running perfectly fine. I believe wiping cache has solved the issue.
I was reading about dalvik cache and came to know that during boot Android always create this cache (if it is not there). So if this problem comes again, can I wipe the cache and dalvik cache without flashing a new ROM. Is this advisable?

How did you revert back your ROM? And how do you do an upgrade? Is it by flashing .zip from recovery of by KDZ method? If by .zip from recovery I believe you did it wrong since ding it that way is not include flashing baseband.
Wipe dalvik cache, Wipe battery stats, wipe cache partition and full wipe/factory reset from recovery. Then flashing.
Proper method to upgrade/downgrade is using KDZ method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287236
It will install the ROM and the baseband. After that don't restore any application yet. Check it first, is it still shutdown? Is it still no signal? Is it still have battery drain problem? If it is, then it's a hardware failure. Send it to LG Service centre.

Man nothing against you, I know you wanna help, so thx for that, but I'm trying to get advanced help, all these common things aren't any problem and I know almost everything about them. I am asking if anybody succeeded to get rid of the shut down problem and if anybody else had signal loss after reverting back to froyo ? And the main reason why I started the thread, is because I know that there was the reboot issue on froyo and the shut down problem on ginger and this was a serial bug
Hi,
I bought a P6800 (came with DXLP7 ROM, Singapore version) one month ago. Its WIFI worked great in my work place but wifi could not connect to my router at home. I received OTA updates(~20 MB) few days ago which updated the ROM to DXLP8. DXLP8 solved my wifi connection issue at home but wifi connection is much slower now when I use it in my work place. I’d like to flash it back to stock ROM DXLP7 (found on sammobile.com) since I mainly use the p6800 at work.
Here is the status of the P6800:
• Stock ROM ICS 4.04 DXLP8
• Rooted using this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849235)
• Factory reset using “setting”->”backup and reset”-> factory reset
• Factory reset in recover mode (hold volume up and power button->Select wipe cache, Select wipe data/factory reset)
If I flash ROM to stock ROM DXLP7 using odin, will that brick the P6800? Please help.
Many thanks
John
The dangerous part was the factory reset on stock kernel.
If it survived that you should be ok to flash.
You can always install and run the emmc brick bug test app from play store
since you are rooted, just to be sure.
Anyway, avoid to factory reset the P6800 it can kill your device anytime.

I'm a newbie to Android. I will do emmc brick bug test to check it. and I will not do factory reset again.
Thanks again!
Not so much to do with being newbie, samsung screwed up the Galaxy note and the P6800 (amongst others) , by putting faulty emmc chips inside. Under Gingerbread or Honeycumb there is no problem, but with ICS a factory reset can hard brick your Tab.
Since I own both, I need to betwice as careful

Hi friedje,
I checked the emmc bug it showed no issue. I successfully flashed the ROM to DXLP7.
BTW, I have a note too, looks we have the same interest on those gadgets.
Many thanks for your help!

Ok, I flashed something that wasn't for my sgs2 skyrocket and when I did it nothing happened, then when I rebooted it it seemed ok untill it kept freezing, no sound even on full val. I cant call because I cant here the other person and that it freezes on every app I open it takes like 2mins to open or a force close comes up. Well I have flashed back to stock using odin but still the same problem. I dont know what to do? Any thoughts about fixing this?
Sent from my samsung galaxy s2 skyrocket i727.
If you have flashed back to stock, and are still having the same issues it sounds like there may be a hardware problem. Did you do a full clean flash back to stock? (system wipe, clear the dalvik)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Why would you flash something not for the Skyrocket?
Wipe the phone completely, as in all data, the system, caches, and repeat that wipe three times in recovery, then power down. Go into download mode and restore to GB stock (yes, all the way back), then use Kies to do the ICS update and stay stock for a few days to make sure everything works after that.
If it's still not working after that, your hardware is jacked. Restore the thing back to GB, pull the cord out during the ICS update on Kies and finish the job. Hope you're still in warranty; if not, I hear you can get a used Captivate for $60 or so while you learn not to flash stuff for the wrong phone.
in stock recovery wipe caches and do a reset, if still a no go, install cwm, wipe caches and reset x3, reflash stock firmware with odin again, perform a reset, if still a no go then hw malfunction
Well someone's lazy...

I reflashed the Stockrom Image N8020XXUDNF1_N8020DTMDNF2_N8020XXUDNE3_HOME.tar.md5 from German Telekom via Odin 3.09 (tested Wifi fully functional), booted, flashed latest philz_touch_6.48.4-n8020.tar.md5, made a full wipe/clean install, Cache wipe, Dalvik Cache wipe and installed your Gnabo.V7.N8020.zip in cwm, after reboot already after first language selection Screen there is no Wifi, Wifi Switch falls back to off. What I am doing wrong? Is there another stockrom Image I should try? Or is it a bug?
I saw there is already a wifi fix for the 8013 (GT-N8013-KK-WiFi-Fix.zip), but it doesn't work for this device. Maybe it's a similar issue?
This Rom looks very nice, I would like to install, but I need a working Wifi! Thank you!

Solved
Read a post with a similar problem with galaxy s3. The solution for me was to flash your deodexed StockromN8020v1.zip in between the Odin Flash from Stockrom kitkat and make a full wipe/factory reset in CWM before and after the Flash. Then I did a complete Setup in the deodexed Rom, went back to recovery, made another Full wipe and then installed your Gnabo-Rom. Now Wifi is working, everything perfect except the signal bar as noted. Finally happy! Thank you for the Rom!

Hi, appreciate your contribution for N8020. I would like to try your rom, and got some problems in the step of flash, the system mention again : fault in foot with red text and quit automaticly. how to solve it? thanks in advance.

If you flash one Wifi-working zip like the stock.n8020.v1.zip-Rom deodedexed from Smegg inbetween, doing a full wipe before and AFTER the Flash, rebooting, setting up your wifi at the Welcome Screen, then booting in CWM again doing another Full Wipe and than flashing the Gnabo-Rom, your Wifi-problem would be gone. I had the same Problem, now Wifi is fully working. Regards

new snote app
While using the new snote app I discovered, that old snb files or imported pdf files are displayed very unsharp, especially when you zoomed in, at least in comparison to the old snote app. Could it be because of a smaller display Resolution on the Gt-N8020?
Fixes dont work for me
Hi!
First of all thank you for your work, seems like an astonishing rom (so thanks to Mikyno as well).
Unfortunately I also have the wifi issue. If I then try your version, govinda9, then I even do not have any wifi connection on the Smegg 8020v1.zip. Do you have any clue what else could work?
Smegg, as you mentioned you had these problems in the beginning as well, how exactly did you fix it? Which settings did you restore via Titanium Backup?
Best regards,
PW
P.S: also had some problems before with the Samsung stockrom from 27/11/14 (would not boot after flashing a rom). If anyone encounters this as well, use the stockrom N8020XXUDNF1 from 04/08/14
WIFI Fix
What I did is, making a full wipe before and right after the deodexed Rom Flash, only booting back to recovery in between. I used Philz latest 8020 recovery. One point would be to first do a full wipe with the stockrom recovery before you flash Philz recovery and do the procedure again. The wipe on stock recovery has a different effect to the wipe on custom recoveries, at least what I have found out. Another Point is, that wifi should work at least in Stockrom, otherwise there could be a hardware failure. Maybe this helps!

Are you coming from a stock 4.4.2 Rom?
Did you do a fullwipe before flashing? Sometimes it is helpful to wipe again after flashing.
