[Q] looping TF300T - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Searched the forum but couldn't find the same problem.
Tablet starts-up and goes to the starting screen.
After ca. 10 to 20 sec's the tablet reboots.
Sometimes I can read a mail or google for about 10 secs.
It is an original tablet, no unlocking or whatsoever.
Problems started after the latest update (firmware... I think)
What to do,
I am a noob not a nerd.
All help welcome !
regards

Have you tried factory reset or reflashing your stock firmware?

Thanks for your quick response :good:
No, I don't get time enough to do a factory reset or back-up.
How to reflash stock firmware ?
When using the start button/volume down I get this message :
bootloader <1.00> released by "ww_epad-10.6.1.27.5-20130902" AO3
The screen says : "RCK" "ANDROID" "WIPE DATA"
When using RCK I get a dead Android with a error message
When using ANDROID I get a cold booting, a startup and I can read 2 E-mails and the looping is back.
I obviously do not use the Wipe out command.
I am using the TF300T with dock for nearly 13 months and was happy with the performance.

You do this with the Stock install zip for your bootloader:
Tylorw1 said:
1. Download the latest version of Android for your tablet. Make sure you download the correct SKU version.
A. To find the SKU, go into settings, About tablet, and look for your Build Number, There are two letters (such as US,WW, TW, etc.) that is your SKU. When downloading the zip from ASUS', you must download the correct SKU zip.
2. Decompress downloaded .zip file (it will be another .zip)
3. Rename it to:
A. For the TF700 and TF300: EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip
4. Make sure your MicroSD card is formatted Fat32. It must be Fat32 Format or it will not work.
5. Copy the file to (the root directory of) your MicroSD
6. Insert the MicroSD into the tablet
7. Shutdown (power off) the tablet
8. Power it on by pressing and holding VOLUME DOWN and POWER buttons simultaneously
9. When you see white text in the top left corner of the screen, release the buttons ^^ and press VOLUME UP button (on RCK, this is your recovery which should already be selected) until you see Android logo and process bar
10. Give the update process 5-10 minutes. It should not take longer than that. If it happens to run for more than 45 minutes to an hour, force shut down the tablet and see if it boots. If it does not, try rerunning steps 7-9.

Thats annoying of Asus... the only versions that are available on XDA are older ones like 10.6.1.27.1. But idk if it will work to flash back like that, and I wouldn't recommend doing it unless someone else has already tried and been successful.

Do you have a copy of the install zip for the stock firmware? You need that to reflash it, and you can if you have it for 10.6.1.27.5-20130902

Hi Fransoos,
seems like your recovery is sorta borked. In a even worse situation (nothing booted up at all) I followed two guides:
1. Complete reset you device and update to the latest stock firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12
You should be able to get the latest firmware from this thread, I tried to download the 4.2 WW, working fine
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949758
2. A very nice script that will install the latest CM11 nightly and Google Apps on your device, including a working recovery and everything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2579922
You only need to have the drivers installed and an unlocked Bootloader. Maybe this is the way to go for you.
At least it's what I did and I am very happy with my decision.
Cheers

In the newer versions of the stock firmware there are only the three icons (RCK and so on) you described. A line at the top of the screen will say something bout fastboot, so if anyone tells you to select the USB icon ... than that is outdated information. Kept me on my toes for a while.

Hi guys, dumb question, but why not just let Francoos install the not latest firmware? It should at least fix his issues. If not, the lean wipe of the tablet should resolve this, but then his data is lost.
Any 4.2 stock firmware should give him better results than a reboot every 10 seconds.
Cheers

The OP's bootloader is locked and he is on the latest firmware: 10.6.1.27.5. So upgrading to the latest firmware is the same as reflashing the firmware. So he has to download the 10.6.1.27.5 firmware from the forums or Asus website and upgrade it manually using the quote I gave a few posts ago.

Still can't reach Asus for the file.
Is possible to use the usb port on the dock to reflash or must it be the miniSD ?

You can reflash though fastboot or through the microSD card. The USB port cannot be used.
You can also download the ROM here though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697227

Oke, did the reflashing 10.6.1.27.5 firmware.
No dead android but also the looping is back.
Do I need to rename the older firmware ?

Did you see it reflashing and did it erase all of your data? It looping should not continue after a factory reset unless it is a hardware problem.

The android is belly loading and after reboot no data is lost.
Did open the tablet to see if the on/off button is stuck.
All seems alright.

Can you backup your apps using the Asus app and the factory reset?

No, I do not have time enough to backup; after 10 to 20 secs it goes in looping.
If I want to use an older firmware, do I have to rename it too ; wich name ?

[Q] (Q) my eee pad stuck at asus welcome screen why!?

Hi everyone,
Yesterday I tried to install stock rom again by following a tutorial which is on this forum too but since I don't have enough posts to post an post in development section. I decided to post it here
Since I installed the stock rom and kernel on my device I can't boot up anymore It just stuck at the begin screen of asus;s I tried to use NvFlash but without succes because everytime I put my device in APX mode(this works) and then run the .bat file apx mode removes and the bat file says no device found;s
So then I tried wiping all data by using some volume button, tried to cold boot but didn't work neither. Tried to get into recovery but can't boot after that.
SO I would really appreciate it if someone could help me
P.S. I tried this unrooting/stock rom method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154947
And I was running Revolver ROM.(latest update)
Yours Kasper
This post would not belong in the development section FYI..you are in the right place, only post in Dev section if you are developing something.
What is your serial number? B70 and later cannot use NVflash from what I understand so if you are B70 or later you may be bricked..
Thanks for your fast reaction! and where can I find my serial number? and if I am bricked is there any way to get un bricked?

Look near the charging port, should be a sticker that start with a "B".
Also on the back of the box if you still have it.

Kay thanks, but I removed all my stickers and had to threw away the box when I left America with the plane;s (didn't fit in my bag) So I guess im 70b+ else NvFlash would work? But is there maybe some other way to get my device unbricked or is the only thing I can do is waiting untill Nvflash supports 70b +?

Are you stuck on the very first screen that says Eee Pad or the second one that just has a silve ASUS in the middle? Cause if it's the second...it's the bootanimation so couldn't you just go into recovery and clear and reflash?
its the silver I can get into recovery but wiping or cold-booting only results in freeze;s and trying to install a new ROM (EVEN THE official of asus rom) it gives an error the Yellow Triangle above the android man;ss

Assuming you have CWM Recovery...did you try using the Format option...then reinstalling a ROM? Just a thought.

[Q] Help in returning to stock rom

So i'm looking for a little help.
A little while back I used this thread : [GUIDE] TF300T Unlock/Root/Flash for Factory JB Devices (newbie friendly)
To help me install this custom rom : [ROM][TF300]|Mar 28| Energy™ -.¸¸.·´¯ Official JB 4.2.1 Stock or Themed ¯´·.¸¸. -
onto my girlfriends TF300T tablet
and I have this : [RECOVERY][TF300T/TG] TWRP 2.5.0.0 Touch Recovery! [2013-4-9] on there as well
but I can't remember if this was part of the unlock/root/flash process or not, so i'm not sure if it used it during the process or if I added it shortly afterword
now its been while since I have done it but then the tablet started to restart randomly while she was using it.
so I figured no biggie maybe an app got messed up or something, and so I told her to back up her pics, exc she wanted off the unit
and I could look at reinstalling the apps or just taking the unit back to factory rom
about a week later it started to reboot more often randomly
and now it is to the point where it will not make it into the rom
now I can make it into the boot selection where I can choose RCK (for the TWRP), USB, or the other 2 options
and I know I can make it into the TWRP tool as well and it does not repeatedly boot from there, so i'm sure its a rom issue and not a hardware issue, but I could still be wrong
the unit is currently charging so I have not had a chance to try for the usb connection option or anything else yet
hopefully the usb option will work so I can try to recover the pics, exc before taking the unit back to factory
now in the process I know I have unlocked the unit, I believe I have done the min root but have not fully rooted the unit if that makes sense
so i'm just wondering if I will half to fully root (and how do I do that if I do since I can't make it into a rom)
how do I clear the rom that has gone bad
how do I install a factory rom (how do I tell which is the lastest rom, and which one is needed for my unit)
and then I should be good from there
if you need any more info please let me know and maybe some instructions on how to get to that info
in the process of putting the energy rom onto it, I spent a week of reading, researching, and figuring out which way would probably be the safest for me to do, plus the easiest for me to understand
now that it has been so long I have been reading and researching again, I just need that nudge that gets me in the right direction
i'm sure i'm not the only one that has had this issue with a rom, and i'm also sure there is a guide out there already that goes over how to put it back to a factory rom
just for some reason i'm either over looking it or not finding it

Its very simple to return to stock. But first, do you have the tablets drivers installed on your pc?
---------- Post added at 06:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 AM ----------
And do you have fastboot?
if you are talking about the android sdk tools
yes that is installed on my computer from the first time I did the tablet
and I went ahead and did the updates for it as well
and tried plugging the unit in with the fastboot and confirm it shows up in device manager

Lol okay. Theres actually a more simple way.
1. Download the latest asus firmware.
2. Extract the zip file
3. Flash it like a normal rom.
If you cant use this method then you'll have to use fastboot. Here's a link but if you need any help, just ask : http://www.androidauthority.com/transformer-pad-tf300t-restore-stock-firmware-108016/
how do I check the sku according to that guide if i'm not able to load into the android os
that only shows if you can load into the os
would the box have that?
or now looking at the options that I should assume its is a US sku lol

can't find any detailed instructions on using twrp on flashing a rom, especially the stock one
i'm sure there is a set of detailed instructions cause I swore I saw one once
but i'm not able to find it again

Its simple lol. When you download the firmware from asus, its usually in a .zip form. In it, there is another zip file. Copy that zip file onto your tablet and flash it with twrp.

Yes. You have to do a factory reset first.
and how do I do that lol, and what happens when I don't do that first
is this tablet now dead since the step of doing the reset was not complete? cause now I can not access twrp and it just sits there with the asus logo and the swirling dots
when I try to access the usb option all I have is rck, android and wipe, rck just gives a failure shortly after trying

If you want to use twrp, download the us stock firm ware. when you open it, you'll see a file that looks like this: "US_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3". copy that file onto your tablet and flash it like a normal rom. haha
For fastboot, if you have the android sdk, then you already have fastboot so you dont have to download fastboot again.

Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.
I'll be doing a little research before root/rom tonight!
Super excited and can't wait to see what's the potential I'll be unlocking from my tablet.
Was wondering if anyone can help me out.
I've downloaded the unlock from Asus's
Threw it on the SDcard, ran the unlock
I believe it's unlocked, because it says at the top right that device is not locked
I tried this -
Hold Power + Vol Down until a message appears (it doesn't appear anymore on Jelly Bean bootloader) ("Press Vol. Up to enter RCK (5s)") : DON'T PRESS VOL UP
After 5 seconds, a new menu appears (if it's not already there). Press Vol Down once to change to the USB icon, then press Vol. Up to validate (you have to do this in less than 10 seconds, otherwise your tablet will boot Android OS)
But I don't see the option to press/select the USB Icon
I am using the Jelly Bean 4.2
Any tips or pointers

Didn't realize that my version won't have a USB icon, it's already in FastBoot mode
CWM has been installed on it =)

Followed that guide, and wow, that was easy.
Rooted and TWRP as recovery now.
Thank you for your guidance once again.
Now I'm thinking of trying - CROMi-X 5.0.3 ODEX/DEODEX 10.6.1.27.1

Yeah I've been looking around and what not, been tossed up on CyanogenMod and the Cromi-X , but I think the features from the Comi-X suites me more.
I'll keep you posted after I test it out, going to do a Nandroid Backup now and install the rom
Curious
I'm just going through the setup/installation process for Cromi-X
Do we have to reflash the ROM to go through the setup, OR can we select some of those options again after the installation?
Such as DSP Manager, X-Loud, and some of the other minor tweaks
Doesn't seem tooo tedious to backup and restore, but I wouldn't want to reflash all the time just to adjust some settings....
Or it's just part of the deal of ROM's.......
All in all, Cromi-X has been installed and I am stoked.
Benchmark Results Request
So I got Comi-X installed
Does anyone have any benchmark results that I can compare to?
Using AnTuTu Benchmark atm and I'm hitting about mid 14000's.
Not sure if that's what this tablet can output to.

if you want to change any settings mate just reflash the rom and choose to wipe the dalvic cache while going through the settings there is no need to do a full wipe for that and benchmarks aren't everything mate but most people use quadrant, and goddly has gotten over 7000 on that which is crazy high, he got it using thats overclock kernel that was built for the tf700, but hunds kernel can be overclocked and that is built for the tf300 but im using thats v4 kernel which cant be overclocked but i dont think it needs to be and the battery life on thats kernel is crazy good and my tablet is well over a year old

Hmmm ok
Just curious where would I be able to find other Kernels?
I'm using hunds kernel that came with Cromi-X rom (I'm guessing)
Thanks for all the help btw, totally learning everything quickly.

in the second post of the cromi thread there is a kernel and tweaks installer but here is the link to it any way because im really nice lol

if you use thats kernel for the tf300 then try the undervolt option to give you even better battry life but if you use hunds and want to overclock it then its best to try the overvolt option to increase stability

HELP! Is my phone beyond hope?

Hi All!
I'm brand new to this forum, so thanks for reading this in advance.
I am totally new at this.
My XT926 crashed while I was wiping the google cache and a phone call came in, and now won't get past the motorola logo on bootup. I've tried calling Verizon and Motorola but their solutions have not helped. I have done the factory reset from the recovery menu, and attempted to flash Jelly Bean 4.1.2 using RSD lite and the recovery menu. Having a bit of an issue with installing AdbWinApi.Dll (or some such file)
Here are the issues I'm having:
I don't know how to determine which version of software might possibly be still on the phone. The Verizon Tech seemed to think that all the software on the phone is gone, including the startup file. The fastboot menu
reads:
AP Flashboot Flash Mode (S)
10.9B(*) (sha-61146a2, 2014-07-29 00:54:49)
eMMC Info: Size 32GB
Device is LOCKED, Status Code: 0
Battery OK
Transfer Mode:
USB Connected
I'm not sure if there is a way to get back to the stock software. The phone is out of warranty so if rooting or any other kind of exploit is the way to go, I'm all for it.
I realize you guys have a lot of more exciting things to do, so thanks for any help you can provide. Thanks!
Was the firmware on a 4.1.2 build when it crashed?

So far, the only thing I have done is uninstall several apps I didn't need/use anymore and cleared cache. So far so good. If it starts doing it again, I will be reflashing the firmware is RSD lite. Worse come to worse, I buy another mb/lb and replace the current board in it.

Honor 8 bricked after failed unroot attempt. Please help!

Hey everyone. I rooted my Honor 8 yesterday using the following guide: https://www.xda-developers.com/honor-8-root-twrp-and-xposed/. Everything seemed to work fine at first, but soon my Bluetooth refused to turn on at random and apps constantly crashed (either on startup or when switching between them). It got annoying very quickly and after searching for hours and not finding any real solution, I decided root wasn't that important to me and I'd just unroot my phone and then hard reset. After using SuperSU's unroot function, my phone turned off and rebooted. But when it got to the blue screen with the honor logo, it froze. Nothing does anything. No matter which buttons I press/hold down. It's just stuck on that screen. I'd love to take out the battery, but with these new phones, it's sadly built in (who ever thought that was a good idea?). It's been this way for close to an hour. ADB doesn't recognize it anymore. The only way my PC seems to recognize it at this point is through the Device Manager, where it shows the yellow warning sign. Under Properties > General it reads "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". I've tried a few different things but none of them have worked. So this is where I'm at now. I'd hate to lose this phone since I just got it three months ago. I would really appreciate any sort of help, because I'm grasping at straws.

Sorry, I might not have made this clear, but I can't even turn my phone off. It's literally stuck on the blue screen (how fitting). The model should be 51090QMF, but I don't know what you mean with the last part.

My bad, I just looked it up on Amazon (where I bought it) and it said model number. This should be the real one: FRD-L09. The reboot worked, but it's still stuck on the honor logo. At least we know it's not hard-bricked now.

Yes, the 32GB one. And as I said, I was able to get into the Huawei eRecovery. I'm guessing I should just hit "Download latest version and recovery" at this point, but I was waiting just to be sure.

I'm just gonna go back to not having root after this, haha. It was just something I wanted to try, I don't need it that much.

I "Thanked" all your posts here, which is the least I can do.
