Hello.
After recent acquisition of a Hannspad tablet i decided to install ubuntu desktop on it. Starting from the basics, clockworkmod was needed to be installed. As this tables is a replica of the gtablet , following this tutorial was mandatory. viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com
After installing clockworkmod from that tutorial for the 1.2 branch, i discovered that the softbuttons from the right side were broken, only buttons working for clockworkmod were the up/down (vol+, vol-).
So another recovery.img was neeeded. NVflash for nvidia tegra 250 was downloaded. When trying to understand the program, i issued the default command residing in a batch file, in the nvflash dierctory root " nvflash.exe --bct flash.bct --setbct --bl bootloader.bin --configfile flash.cfg --odmdata 0x3c000011 --create --go " ( still wonder why i did that ).
After this, the tablet became unresponsive, except for the apx mode. Only thing working was the power button. So i downloaded the bootloader for gtablet. After loading that bootloader, the tablet will start for half a second, but restart immediately. No recovery mode, no booting, just the backlights staying up for half a second.
My answer is, if anyone has any time and patience to help me and others who might encounter the thread, is there something that can be done to bring back the device?
Thanks !
yeah, you´ve 2 options : first you delete the partition and tell them you don´t know anything...
or install win 7/ or use ubuntu
Second option

I don't think that win7 can be installed on an arm processor. As for ubuntu, i will try to install it, but i have to learn more about the post/storage/arm cpu in order to bring the tablet back to life.
Can anyone direct me to some resources on how to install an os on an arm architecture?
I tried to find the resources, but in no avail.
Thanks .
hmmm .. im really interested in this thread.
i also have this tablet and i would want to try some different roms but dont see any support for it anywhere (for the tablet).
hope u manage to recover ur device..
ill be watching this thread .
okay it´s easy....
download the update 4789 etc. from hannspree, rename just update, take zip file(update) into root of your external device than boot ( push volumen up+ and power button 5 seconds) than should the system reboot with old settings, if nothing happens try with ac adapter and usb.
@fxandrei : i try to install win 7,bootlloader etc. if you know something or have honeycombfiles/updates etc. pls say it thx

i dont .
im looking for stuff like this.
im hopping that this tablet gets some support (like acer iconia or asus eee transformer).
Any news on it? I am on a worst scenario, the one where one decide to use nvflash_gtablet...zip on the Hannspad (modify partition scheme, and worst cbt )
I can't boot, or rescue anymore, and trying to recover the partition scheme seems to end in only APX mode to work (no more wolume up or down + power working)
Reflashing nvflash_gtablet restore viewsonic start screen but that's all...
I need a fresh and complete dump of hannspad SN10T1 (cbt+partitiontable+every partition dump)
For those interrested, with the help of people from slatedroid and forum.hardware.fr, I've been able to recover my tablet (not stock 12 patitions, but a good working 10 partitions images).
You can find instructions and the full package (rom 1.2.1-4789 + Linux and windows nvflash +drivers for windows + scripts) there:
I can't post URL so go to
www-DOT-slatedroid-DOT-com/topic/20148-hannspree-hannspad-sn10t1-rom-dump
For now, I can give you my Recovery for Hannspad (put you directly to 1.2.1-4789 Hannspree)
Instructions:
Connect your PC and Tablet with the usb cable
Put your device in APX mode.
APX mode is obtained, whe you have bricked your device, or when doing the following:
tablet is off and you start it by pressing and maintaining volume down + power button, it must power on and go to a black screen, it it goes to a freezed boot log or a work in progress image, the try wolume up + power button.
Linux:
You can see if your device in APX under linux by doing a lsusb, if you can see a line with:
Bus XXX Device YYY: ID 0955:7820 NVidia Corp.
So now you have a APX connexion with your tablet.
Download Recovery-SN10T1-1.2.1-4789.zip (link at bottom of post)
Extract it where you want, and execute ./nvflash_sn10t1.sh
After it is finished powerdown th tablet, do the opposite combo key (volume up or down + power for 3-4 seconds) and make a wipe data/factory reset.
You can restart, you have a stock rom (10 partitions only, not stock firmware)
Windows
Download Recovery-SN10T1-1.2.1-4789.zip
Extract it where you want
Now boot your tablet in APX mode:

Now connect your PC and the tablet by USB cable. Windows should search for drivers, it won't find it so you can cancel the windows update search. Now go to device properties (right click on computer and manage), and make it install the driver included in the zip. Now you must be able to execute nvflash_sn10t1.bat
After it is finished powerdown th tablet, do the opposite combo key (volume up or down + power for 3-4 seconds) and make a wipe data/factory reset.
You can restart, you have a stock rom (10 partitions only, not stock firmware).

many thanks
Thanks, that fixed the problem. Although the tablet is working, the quest to have Ubuntu on the tablet is still on the table(some pun intended). On slatedroid forum there are some folks with the exact same ideea, so, let,s hope that running x11/Ubuntu on sn10t1 will happen.
Typing the message from the hannspad.
Cant boot into recovery
Hello'
Am sorry if I have posted this in the wrong thread.
I have a 53 version Hannspad and I was able to successfully install Flashback 7.2 onto it.
Everything was well until yesterday when I installed Rom Manager from the market and installed Gtab flash recovery by choosing first option in the rom manager and then selecting Gtab from the list (the list had Advent Vega' Elocity A7' etc).
It said "flashed successfully" and I almost forgot about it until yesterday when I decided to install fards Gtabcomb 3.3_refresh. Now I am unable to boot into either CWM recovery or stock recovery. The tablet boots and runs just fine just doesn't go into recovery. It says 'Recovery key detected' and gets struck though I can boot and use the tablet. I am writing this using the tablet. My main probelm with Flashback is that it doesn't allow me to download apps via market.
Please suggest me how to get CWM back.
Thank you
Help please! My device wont enter apx mode... it does open the recovery mode every time and i can't make modifications because the side buttons aren't working aswell.
I thank everybody for there hard work to get these problems solved, I do have a good one :
I tried to flash Recovery-SN10T1-1.2.1-4789.zip and it excuted ok on my hannspad I saw the Hannspree logo, than the Tap N Tap running logo .. but now the Hannspad didn't startup, it came in a loop of the Tap N Tap screen, after 4 times the screen became blank (only the green powerlight showing) .
Now I read i had to do a Data wipe (go into recovery mode) .. but After (hard) reboot and pushing the +/- button it just goes to APX mode and no recovery (stock nor CWM) i just can't seem to nvflash any recovery.img to make the thing work ..
I would love to have some help, i would really appreciate it
Sadly enough there isn't much of a Hpad community @XDA, so for help with your problem you might be better of in the [email protected] forums or, depending on your language skills at android-hilfe or hannspad.fr. All three have excellent recovery guides. Good luck.
You're a lifesaver!

I thought I had bricked my friends Hannspad for good after trying many other "solutions" until yours did the trick. Thanks for being both clever enough to know how to solve my problem and kind enough to share.
Hi there,
Help needed.
I have a TF101 and I was reading up on how to root my device. So this is what I did
I turned off my device, and then pressed volume up + power, and my tablet went into APX mode.
Then, I tried to use NvFlash. What I did was executing the download.bat file, it ran the script, and then my TF101 is stucked at "Entering NvFlash recovery mode"
I have tried searching around on how to fix this but to no avail.
Please please help me
Thanks
Sean
Link to the root kit you used.
And why didn't you just use vipermod?
I was reading this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494230
And it says use NvFlash to recover roms
And from there, I used this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123429
And followed these instructions
To use it you must enter APX mode on your TF101. This is tricky and confuses many users. The procedure is;
1. Press and hold volume UP and POWER buttons at the same time (it doesn't matter if the TF101 is on or off, if it is on, simply wait until it shuts off before proceding).
2. HOLD these buttons for approximately SIX SECONDS.
3. Plug TF101 into PC and listen for it to chime that it has detected it, it should load drivers and device will be listed in Right Cick>Computer/Properties/Device Manager/USB Universal Serial Bus Controller (or similar) as NVIDIA, not as ASUS.
4. If it does not, power on the TF and try again until it does.
NOTE: This is the only way to know if it is in APX mode as the screen remains powered off completely.
Once in APX mode now you can use NVFlash tool, place the system, boot, and recovery .img files into the root of the folder you extract NVFlash into and execute the download.bat file. If at any point the flash fails, this likely means you are SBK2.

I thought I would need to use NvFlash first, then get ADB running, and then only use ViperMod
You have a sbk1 tf right?
Correct,
SBK1 TF
I got my TF101 to boot up again by referring to this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1573835
Okay so to root it, I should go straight away to ViperMod in ABK mode?
So I can avoid NvFlash?
If you are on 8.6.x.19 razor claw would be the easiest route, Otherwise viper mod will work. I have not used viper mod so you might want to read up on it first.

Correct just use ViperMod (option 1), not sure what ABK is but just turn your tf on like normal.
Okay, so I've had the issue with CWM 5.8.3.4
And unfortunately I didn't fix the the boot issue and the problem I'm running into now is that I have super wiped my internal space so I have no roms to flash back to.
I can't cold boot into an OS because there is Android OS installed on it right now.
I don't know how to place anything onto the Asus TF101 internal memory.
The clockwork mod doesn't detect my external micro sd card either.
My device is a SBK1, B40
Anyone have any ideas on how I can access my microsd from recovery? or how I can get adb working.
I tried booting into APX mode, but that doesn't seem to be working either (Vol up + Power)
Not sure what to really do now.. Stumped that I'm stuck on recovery mode with no way to access its storage.
Thanks
EDIT - RESOLVED (taken from my last post) 10-07-12
Hey All,
I wanted to update this thread, I just got it fixed tonight and it was the cable.. One of those difficult to realize and pinpoint for troubleshooting..
But if anyone ever has problems with their computer not detecting their device, it can be the cable (which in my case it was)
I was able to get APX mode working, and adb via recovery working as well with the new cable.
Thanks for all the help!

I would clear Dalvik Cache, then retrying.
and your microsd cant be seen or you cant load stuff from it?
use Easyflasher to flash a different recovery to your tablet that supports external sd card reading, like the twrp option in easyflasher

The problem is that I'm not sure how to get Easyflasher working since I'm having trouble connecting the tablet into APX mode.
I plug in the tablet and power it off, and after powering it off I try to get into APX mode, vol up and power.
But my computer doesn't detect anything. To me it seems like it doesn't get into APX mode.
Not sure how to really connect with Easyflasher..
Probably a silly comment... but every time I have used APX I have done it this way:
1. Unplug
2. Power off
3. Plug
4. Vol Up + Power
I have tried inverting 3 and 4 and it also worked. But I always start with th TF unplugged and powered off.
Probably it is the same, but maybe you can try. Have you tried another uSD?
Easy flash will work... unplug, power off, press vol up+power for at least 5 sec then plug it in.... comp should detect APX device... look up YouTube videos... there must be some kind of video abt easy flash or apex mode....
Sent from my Transformer using xda app-developers app
What I remember I tried was:
1. Powered Off and unplugged
2. If I plug it into the usb drive, the device starts booting up
3. Unsuccessful with APX
Another method:
1. Powered Off while plugged
2. Held Vol up + Power
3. Nothing happened
I'll try again and report back tonight. I'll try another uSD, but I think this recovery doesn't detect any uSD's unfortunately
Thanks
Remember in apex mode or tablet won't turn on... but laptop should detect apex mode, if not laptop should say unknown device or unable install drivers...
Sent from my Transformer using xda app-developers app
I don't know whats wrong..
At this point I considered my tablet bricked and cursed with ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.3.4
I tried 3 different computers and none of them detect my tf101, they don't detect it as an unknown device, don't detect it as APX
I've tried running APX mode several times, with different ways of holding VOL UP + Power as well.
It refuses to go into APX mode unless I'm still lacking the magic touch.
I can get into cold boot mode, but there isn't an internal OS to boot into. If only I could do that as well to put things onto the internal memory.
At this point I might try to RMA.. but probably out of warranty and voided it with rooting recovery on it as well..
Damn bricked!...
Just don't understand why APX mode won't work..
If you have the keyboard dock you might want to try to use an external usb stick, you can mount it with clockworkmod

I answered your question here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32277020#post32277020
Yes, you need to get into APX mode. And yes, it will work. You can't wipe APX mode off your tablet, it's stored in the first few blocks of your emmc, in fact it's so hidden the device uses the secondary partition table instead of the primary, so nothing can touch the partition containing APX code
On whatever computer you're using, open device manager. I'll assume you know how to get there (right click on my computer>properties>device manager) This will let you see any new device pop up clearly
Like everyone said, you just need to hold down up, and power. It doesn't matter if your usb cable is plugged in first or not. If it makes you feel any better just leave it plugged in. When my original transformer was messed up so bad I couldn't turn it off, and it just kept bootlooping, I forced it to boot into APX mode by just holding down power and vol up for a good 45 seconds, until the screen was black. It would keep retarting a few times, but eventually the screen went black, and that's how you know you're in apx. I then plugged in the usb cable
You should see something pop up in device manager - if nothing does, it's possible it's already installed a proper driver - do you see something like "apx transformer" at the top of device manager? if so, you're ready to open easyflasher.
if you hold down power and vol up, and the screen is black, and the device doesn't boot up, then you're in APX mode. Now just work on getting your pc to see it. Try right clicking in device manager and hitting refresh
Edit: make sure to do this without the dock! Use the tablet only, no other accessories
There's absolutely no reason to RMA your tablet, it's perfectly fine. You flashing a recovery didn't do any damage or alter APX mode. Worst case scenario and you still can't get into apx mode (it's easy just keep trying it). What you can do is boot into your recovery, then connect it to your computer. Then you can use ADB to push a different recovery zip (like raymanfx's hybrid cwm, which can read from external and internal) to your external sd card in the device, and mount it as /data so your recovery can see it, then use your current recovery to flash it. then you have a recovery that can read from sd cards. A quick guide here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24793571&postcount=25
Instead of pushing over superwipe like he says, push over the cwm hybrid zip. Put it in the same folder as the adb.exe . If you've never used adb before, it's incredibly easy. Just google it.
Trust me, you're tablet is far from RMA status. My first transformer has bad blocks in the internal memory that I'm working on partitioning around using command line parted via a recovery shell, if people can do that then you can easily fix yours

Thanks for the reply, I'll note what I left in the ROM thread and post it here as well.
I've tried 3 different computers and my tablet never shows up under device manager. Nothing new pops up on the bottom right of my screen. I've tried it on a fresh install of windows as well.
Could it be my cable? Or my tablet is really broken with its usb connection. At this point I would ship it to someone on xda to fix it for me!

I've been flashing custom roms, via recovery etc since the g1, it's just strange to me that the computer has no detection of my device at all. And that I've tried 3 different computers as well.
When I get back home, I will hold Vol Up + Power in a dark room for at least 1 minute to see if I can get APX Mode.
For the ADB push while recovery mode is on, my computer doesn't detect that either (I've tried on other computers as well, one which was a recently fresh install of windows).
I'll update later today again.
Thanks

Hi,
is there a possibility the blob file or a recovery to flash when the tablet is no longer start up properly?
The tablet starts to ASUS screen and windows installed asus android MTP (but with errors).
When I start with power + vol up the screen remains black and the computer shows me NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices.
if I want to recovery it shows me only the mänchen when I go there to wipe the remains hanging tablet.
I've tried a lot of instructions and also helped one click tools but nothing has
I'm kinda still a chance to save the good part?
sry for my bad english
I was tired of CM 10, and wanted to be able to use the trackpad on my tf101. I wiped and flashed my tablet back to stock rom. I went to boot it up and it shows the eee pad logo then it goes to this asus logo screen with the loading symbol below the logo. It's been like this for the past 2 hours. i tried rebooting it, but it just goes to the same screen and stays there. When I try to boot in recovery (or twrp) to restore back to CM10, and i get a laying down android robot with its "stomach" open and a triangle with a exclamation point thats red. After a while it goes back to the never ending asus logo with the loading symbol sign.
Serial Number - It's a B70 that SK1
Asus TF101
If you are sure your B7O is SBK1 you can use NVFLASH ROMs to get back to stock

You don't have TWRP installed any more if you flashed stock, if you want TWRP back, use EasyFlasher

I would advise installing a KatKiss ROM after flashing TWRP - trackpad works fine and the ROMs are great

If you are sure your B7O is SBK1 you can use NVFLASH ROMs to get back to stock

The only thing is now it won't let me get to APX mode at all. The screen goes black then nothing. :/
That is APX mode, nothing appears on the TF screen, only sign it is working is the PC connect USB sound and notification

I have a problem - none of it's working. Do you have to install the drivers manually? I'm on Windows 7 if that helps. and then I run download.bat as admin and the cmd pops up for a second then closes. my tf101 is still here bricked. I was in APX mode too.
Yea, go to device manager and look for the ! entry for the missing driver, then right click that and tell it to update the driver > go through the wizard to manually choose the driver from your PC and point it to the drivers folder in the NVFLASH folder
If you have problems with those drivers, try these ones

You might have to manually end task in task manager for "adb.exe" before trying again

Thank you for all your help! I would have never been able to figure it out. Just I'm on the asus rom and I hit the trackpad button so it's on, but yet it stilll won't work. I've used it before so I know it works. If you know how to fix it thats great, but if not it's fine. I just bought the keyboard for the keyboard lol.
If you have the on-screen keyboard installed set to anything but ASUS keyboard / Language set incorrectly for Physical dock keyboard, I think that breaks some keys on the dock, and it's possible that the trackpad button you're pressing is not doing anything - try some other keys like screenshot and wifi etc to see if the dock is working properly
Im not 100% sure - but check in settings for a touchscreen method of enabling the trackpad
---
I know there is a setting in the ASUS ROM to change from "Gesture" to "Trackpad" mode, gestures only has a white circle when you touch the pad, trackpad has a mouse pointer iirc
If it's not showing any and you're on the stock ROM Im not sure
Check for updates in Settings > About Tablet > Updates
See if there is an update for the dock if you've just bought it
Other than that, you could try different ROMs to see if it's a ROM fault or if the dock has become faulty, just make sure to flash TWRP recovery if you go for Jellybean / KitKat ROMs, - CWM recovery bricks tablets pretty often
