Asus crashing all the time. - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
My asus TF300 is crashing all the time. I was on JB 4.2.1 with the original rom. Everything was fine all the time until he crashes, even when he is plugged in the power plug. The problem is that when he crashes he won't get on directly. After a few minites he starts again. Sometime crashes directly again after he is booting. after 30min he will start again and works perfect.
I was tinking to root him and putting a other kernel on it and rom. Still does the crashing part.
Does someone have a solution for this? In standby he does not have the problem.
Code:
Model: ASUS Tranformer Pad TF300T
Android version: 4.2.1
GPS Version: 7.9.11
WIFI Version: 7.1.1.50
Bluetooth version: 11.38
touchscreen version: ELAN-3011-4822
Camera version: TF300T-000128
Kernel Version: [email protected]#13
Build nummer: TF300 CROMi-Xenogenisis 5.4 - 10.6.1.27.5 WW DEODEX
PAD EC-version: PAD-EC20T-0216
Thanks for your answer.

Just tested a battery calibration tool downloaded from google play store. Must charge the battery at 100% and then run the tool. After I downloaded a tool (battery dis-charger.) After 3-5min my tablet falls out. Hope this info helps. Hope anyone has a solution, it was a refurbished tablet and had only 6 months warranty. This happens at 9 months.

You don't need to root before flashing another rom. The "root" bit will be part of the rom you will flash.

Still have the problem. Anyone have a solution that I can try?

Just tested the KatKiss Lolipop rom, still have the same crash problem, i think it's called "Sleep of dead" but can't find a solution for it. Now with the new rom sometime it takes longer to crash and then there are times that it's after a couple of seconds. Anyone have any idea's?

Just downloaded again the firmware from the ASUS website. And installed the blob file with fastboot. Seems do to fine now.

Sleep of Death (SODs) usually occur because of a misbehaving app. Run a logcat before the SOD occurs and you might be able to figure out which app is messing with the sleep.

Hello everybody,
I have the same problem with my TF300T too.
It make a little electric sound when it crash, but I have the feeling it's not a sleep of death.
It now with katkiss room, it very fast but it crash
If somebody has a solution ?
Thanks a lot

That's exactly what it does, after installing the original rom it works good for the first time. But after that I had again the same problem. It's going faster and faster. Really annoying. Hope someone has a solution for this problem, because it's a good tab but with this problem I can put it in the garbage.

Still having the same problem.
- Formatted all with fastbood and installed the official WW rom, but no success.
- downgraded the bootloader to 4.1 without success.
- Updated the bootloader again and installed Omnirom 5.1 but still no success.
Does anyone have an other idea what I can do?
For the moment when he cut's the power I can't get it on and must wait a long time. Sometimes the low battery logo comes on but what is strange is when I plug in the power charger and charges it for 5 min I can boot it. When I go to TWRP I see 90% also when I boot in android I see +/-90% so really don't know what this means. Does anyone have an Idea how I can bring again life to my asus tab tf300t? (the power cut's also in TWRP or at boot. It depends, when he cut's the power and I restart the tab it seems to cut faster and faster until I charge it a little.
Info about tab: I'ts a refurbished tab bought with 6 months warranty, the problem started at month 6 - 7., so no warranty.

Hello, does anyone have a solution that I can try for my wonderfull TF300T crashing problem?
Thanks

Camera Firmware Update Error (Won't update?)

I have a tablet running 4.2.1 and every time I turn it on, it starts to install a camera firmware but just stays at 0% then says failed. It then boots into the OS, and says there's a new firmware update but the update just says "Camera Firmware Update Error" and never installs. The tablet works fine other than that.
I downloaded the same exact rom 10.x.x.15 and it still didn't fix it. Suggestions?
If you're on cromi then I think you're experiencing what I was too, here's my thread from a few days ago
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301676
If you're running anything but stock kernel that would explain why it isn't downloading, however I've noticed even after following sbdags' instructions that my front facing camera doesn't work anymore but at least I very rarely had ever used it. Hopefully this helps
im on cromi mate and both my cameras work fine

I don't know what Cromi is? I am just running a stock rom. However, I don't know for sure that the owner before me didn't have something else on the tablet.
Build Number:
JOP40D.US_epad-10.6.1.15.3-20130416
When you restart your tablet does it device unlocked in the top left corner, if it does then he probably did install a custom rom but if it doesn't then there is no way he did.

Swapped the cameras and still has the problem. It's definitely in the board. Any way to push the old firmware off and a new one on (even if it's the same version?)

I started to do some work on that tabled, but stuck with kernel touchscreen configuration. See here.
Touch chip is Goodix GT911, screen size is 800x1280 px. I managed to get touch working but partialls. First aprox 1.2 inches of top of screen are not responsive to to touches. After that 1.5" touch works normally.
I'm pretty sure I'm sending wrong configuration data array to chip and thats why its not working as it should, but have no time at the moment to toy with it. If anyone experienced with Goodix chips, pm me with ideas...

Update: I started to toy with stock kernel and cm10.2 (my first CM ever, was working with AOSP based SoC manufacturers sources). Problem is that device uses separate partition for internal sdcard, so have to disable emulated storage.
Things done:
- recovery
- android is built against precompiled stock kernel
Status:
- after bootanim and starting apps screen android reboots and starts back with bootanim. This was one day tryout, will debug it later today. Thanx to TeamNostalgia's preparation for cm10.2 on Amlogic MX. I used their framework and device stuff, upgraded with latest amlogic version of sources. Because of SLA I have with Amlogic, I cannot put it online.

It is. I'm not CM guy really, but its possible. If anyone interested, TeamNostalgia's github does have decent tree for Amlogic MXS tablets. I did some CM10.2 work for that tablet, but ended up with bootloop and reboot eventually. Didn't had time do debug it.
Here 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=504411&view=findpost&p=29560411 is a customized firmware from Prestigio PMP3970B to work on Prestigio PMP5670C. But it does not run on PMP5670C, stands on the splash screen. Maybe someone will take to complete the firmware, it is better factory firmware for the tablet PMP5670C

I fixed U-Boot (wrote my own to support device tree kernel - 3.10.10) and fixed touch screen. I did not upload this fw, started to work yesterday on amlogic's 4.4 sources (they support both mx and m8 chipsets) (no, I cant share, I have SLA with them), I have boot, only left few things to test and then I'll upload 4.4.2.

I'm really sorry for inconveniences. With 1.0.05 files on sdcard, delete factory_update_param.aml file and boot into recovery (as if you want to install firmware). From menu using vol +/- and power for select choose factory reset (data partition is not formatted using old partition layout, thats why you have 0kb). After that you also can reflash firmware if you want (just select zip from sdcard).

My daughter get this tablet from her grandfather on 03.05.2014 ( I guess she is lucky about that date ), and it was so slow and ugly and everything.
I installed your bety rom and everything is perfect. BUt after first reboot i get setup wizard again, but the first time after Install I only get FC ( just like I should ) but it didnt throw me back to setup wizard again.
Can I expect wizard setup every time I reboot or?
And Yes, thank you a lot for this awesome and fast work. The tablet is now so much more usable.
HVALA TI STANE MNOGO => THANK YOU STANE A LOT
@stane1983 I have the same problem as @babicsbalu. My pmp5670c is also stuck at black screen after rebooting and installing new stock firmware. I did both, renaming from uImage_recovery to recovery.img and deleting factory_update_param.aml and every time with the same result.
Please help me!
Or you can PM me (I'm from Croatia)
Hvala ti!
Well I also have prestigio tablet pmp5670C_BK_DUO and within a week it got bricked somehow. I guess that broken charging pin on cable had something to do with it - probably did a short circuit or something and boot loader got corrupt. Tabled was responding to connection of new charging cable, but only backlight turned on. There was no logo or anything.
I browsed several pages and nothing worked. I tried with official upgrade from SD card but it didn't work. It started to upgrade, android-upgrade logo came up, but after reboot nothing happened. Damaged bootloader was unable to start the tablet.
After a day or so I finally found a way how to unbrick it! Yeah.... So in attached file there is the detailed procedure, which I found on some Russian page.
Good luck!

I had a similar problem here and this method seems promising, but the recovery file indicated on the PDF is no longer available. Would you still have it lying around somewhere?

[Android 5.1] Random reboots.

Good afternoon gents!
This is the first time I post on this forum so I apologize in advance if I am not going to provide all the details regarding my problem. I'll try to be as explicit I can with my issue.
A couple of weeks ago I bought a LG Nexus 5, second hand. After one day of use the device started to randomly reboot. The odd thing is that the reboots seem to be "soft". After the device restarts there is no data loss, even the recent apps are still there. The reboots are as random as I can get, when browsing with Chrome, checking emails, or playing a game.
I tried several fixes, including costum kernels, costum ROMs and so. The problem persisted with the official KitKat 4.4.4 and Lollipop 5.0, 5.0.1 and 5.1.
Currently I am running stock Lollipop 5.1 with stock kernel and TWRP 2.8.5.2 recovery and the device is rooted.
Below I attached a screenshot with the device's current configuration and a text file with the kmsg log from the last reboot.
Faulty power button.
Reboot phone into bootloader/fastboot.
If it random reboots in the bootloader too, it's likely the power button.
Nope, I already tested this. The device reboots during use, either heavy or simply browsing the menu.

I noticed this in your Log
"<6>[ 0.514020] [email protected]: Power-off reason: Triggered from UVLO (Under Voltage Lock Out)"
Just curious, Are you undervolting?
I don't know exactly what undevolting implies. Could you give me more details please?

Lowering the voltage the CPU runs at, at certain frequencies.
I understand. No, I did no change any of the voltages. In that log that I posted up there the device is rooted and has TWRP 2.8.5.2 with stock lollipop 5.1 and stock kernel. Later yesterday evening i installed xtrasmooth rom with franco kernel and the phone only restarted in Here Maps from Nokia. I'll run more tests, but from this I draw the conclusion that it is a software problem, not a hardware one. Unfortunately I can't RMA the phone. Do you lads have any other opinions?

This log shows a kernel panic.
My n5 reboot today without any reason
That was the only thing I understood from the log too. Do you have any idea what's the reason for these kernel panics and a possible way to fix them?
I experienced today three more random reboots. I attached down the logs. As an unexperienced users point of view all of them are produced by a "Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address" . Could anyone throw a look on them and give me a possible reason for these reboots and a possible fix? Thank you in advance

Good day lads!
I tried since the last post more possible fixes, and the only thing that showed some resuslt was downgrading to 4.4 bu the device still resarts exactly once a day. I am going to switch to another phone.

If you just recieved a new device and you have the possibility to RMA it, I suggest doing it. I went as far as page 30 on google searching possbile fixes and came up with no valid result.

OPO experience bootloop every time it heats up, does good job when it is cool

HI,
My OPO 64GB sandstone Black is experiencing Bootloop everytime it heats up, then i turn it off for 5 minutes to make it cool. After that, it works fine. I bought it about 8 months ago. A month ago, I upgraded it to CM13 official. About 15 days ago, it suddenly went bootloop. Then i checked and found that it was softbricked. Then I did some homework and unlocked the bootloader and downgrade it to Kitkat CM11, but lost all of my data. Finally it came back to life, but the bootloop comes everytime it heats up till now.
I have some question and also asking for a solution to overcome this problem. Questions are listed below
1. What is the suitable solution for this problem?
2. Does my device have any hardware issue or is it just software related problem?
3. Will my device work like before, if i somehow find a solution or its the type of problem which keeps coming back?
Please help me regarding this issue. Thanks in advance.

Hi, have you tried to undervolting the cpu? This might help you to keep it cold
You only have to flash a kernel which let you customize volting values
And If the problem persist try to clean flash the latest oxygen os (It has the latest drivers so maybe it works).
Try this: Install Kernel Adiutor, underclock cpu to 1728 Mhz, Undervolt (if possible) by -50 global, and enable everything in Thermal
I have the same issue. Is there any solution?

Tab2 constant high GPU speed

Hi,
the tablet worked very well with all apps until august 2017. Suddenly everything became very slow.
Installed Trepn. CPU speed was on max even in idle.
Did a factory reset, and installed Trepn. CPU speed was still on max even on idle.
I have tried to do a root with Odin3, but I does not seem to resolve the problem.
I am of the Gopher-generation, but Android is way beyond my understanding.
If anyone on this forum helps me to get my Tab2 to work as it did a year ago I will donate $ 50 to a non-profit organisation.

It'll return your current OS to stock and delete your personal files. It's like resetting your tablet to its original OS. Be sure to backup your files before flashing
Is there a link for helping to return the tab2 to stock with Odin. When I have searched it gets confusing which link to use for the sim version tab2 UK model. Cheers
