Well, we'll need more information!
First of all:
Are you on stock rom or custom rom?
Which rom exactly? (version or build number, if on custom rom also your bootloader and recovery versions)
What's your situation? Tablet doesn't boot? Bootloop?
How did you wipe data? From Settings (Backup & restore)? From the bootloader (Wipe Data)? From custom recovery?
If you are on stock, your tablet boots fine but your data (personal files) is gone, it ain't looking good if you don't have a backup.
I have never heard of anybody using data recovery tools (like you can try on Windows) on an Android device successfully.
The more details you can provide, the better your chances to get help.

Hello,
experts, I'm sorry, but I was not able to find answer to my question, so I ask here. I have encrypted ASUS Transformer TF300T running stock Android 4.1.1. Bootloader is unlocked and I was able to install there CWM. But the device is encrypted, so that I'm not able to replace stock ROM with CyanogenMod. Even when I perform factory reset in Android, nothing happens. In CWM I can only wipe /cache, but not /data. Backup of ROM using CWM is also impossible. I looked at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1894it867 but it doesn't work with JB. I tried http://0xfeedface.org/blog/lattera/2012-06-04/installing-cm9-encrypted-android-tablet but it also doesn't work (http://0xfeedface.org/blog/lattera/2012-06-04/installing-cm9-encrypted-android-tablet#comment-92). So, please, is there any way how to get CM to my TF?
Thank You in advance!
How exactly is it encrypted?
Have you tried going through android settings and attempt to decrypt it?

I used encryption in security settings, part of Android 4. There is no possibility to decrypt it. Even when I push original firmware using fastboot, nothing changes.

OK, about 3rd factory reset did the work. After then I was able to install CM10.
Hey there!
I am quite new on this but am getting really tired of my tf700 being sluggish and slow, so I decided to flash a new rom and try to make a NVflash backup first just to be safe. But before doing all this I wanted to make a backup of all my app data which I can do easily with a rooted tablet and a backup app. Problem is, I am on 10.6.1.14.10 right now and I need 10.6.1.14.8 to be able to root it. So I decided that I should root it before making a backup, so here's my question, does a downgrade of stock rom require a clean wipe or wipe data at all? Or is it safe for me to downgrade, install a backup app for app data and then unlock make NVflash-blob and so on?
tl;dr Does downgrading from 10.6.1.14.10->10.6.1.14.8 require a data wipe?

When you install the full firmware from Asus, it will wipe everything on you sd before installing. In another word, you will loose your personal data if you downgrade your firmware. Backup everything that you need before downgrading. I am very sure that is the case...

That's why he/she doesn't need to wipe anything - the firmware flash will do it
But you make a very good point there....

Ah okay, thanks. That means that I can't do a backup after downgrading. Does an unlock of the tablet wipe data though? The problem I'm having is that I want to save app data before doing anything and the only way to do that without root that I've found is through helium (aka carbon) but I have yet to make Helium work, I've done a backup but not succeeded to restore the app data that I did a backup on.
Is it possible to unlock and install TWRP and do a backup that way? Or does that involve a wipe in any of the steps too?

Unlock is only touched your bootloader and do not wipe your system or data. You are safe on that case..
Since you are on the latest firmware, you can unlock first and try to learn fastboot to install the latest TWRP. When you have TWRP installed, you can backup your apps from there. Good luck. :fingers-crossed:

Thank you so much for this information, I'll use Scotts tool (or something like that?) to install twrp without root and then backup and then flash Cromi-x :victory:

Ahem... LMK - what do you mean by backing up apps in TWRP? Making a nandroid? A little different than what he was asking about - no?

I do not know what kind of app data you want to back up.
Without using TiBu (for which you would need root) I got a pretty seamless transition by just copying everything in my "/storage/emulated/0" directory to my PC and copying it back after wiping/formatting the data partition and installing the same apps I had before.
Don't know what firmware you are coming from, but if you are on JB 4.2 already and follow the steps you mentioned in your last post, and you do not format your data partition, your app data should be intact anyway even after flashing CROMi-X.

Yes, it works on the same rom but I don't know if you nandroid from stock and restore them on cromi x... Are we talking on the same things? Maybe I misunderstand what is the definition of app data... Any way, if you know a better way, he/she will be more than happy to follow your helps.. That is all know and I will follow this post to learn a better method... thanks..
Use the backup app from ASUS

I just did this last week after the OTA update to 10.6.1.14.10 so I had to downgrade to .08.
I made a app+data backup with the stock backup and moved the backup folder to my microSD card, then used another microSD card to do the downgrade, your card must be formatted fat32, after downgrade restore your backup, all apps and data was fine. Then I unlocked and used Scotts tool to install TWRP, goomanager dose not work, and follow the info in "ASUS TF700T unlock and root JB 4.2.1 stock" the CromiX install went smooth as silk. There are a lot of choices to make during the install I chose the default the first time.
Hope this helps, good luck.
Hi xda geeks!
I've encountered a problem when restoring my phone through embeded recovery mode on android 6.0 marshmallow.
It is something i've done many other times.
I use to go to recovery mode and backup my phone on my sd card using the voice 'back up user data'
then after using that file i could restore my data. This time i did everything as usual but the restoring process stops and a message appears saying that my backup file is out of date and that i need to re-backup my phone (which is impossible because i don't have the data anymore).
i absolutely need to restore my data!
please help.
Is there any fix for this?
I have a wiko fever running marshmallow. 6.0
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi All,
I have an o2 UK 6039Y on Lollipop and want to upgrade to MM. OTA won't work with this version. So far I managed to root, install TWRP and recover fastboot commands (they were missing). I have not seen any official MM roms on the forum, there are some like:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/rom-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-t3397546
https://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/general/rom-6-0-1-version-010-01-kernel-3-10-49-t3518041
Can someone explain to me please if I'm going to lose root, TWRP and fastboot by using the above? I assume you do with the first link and then it is hard to get these back, but I would not with the second link? I am after as stock experience as possible, using the phone for work and I need stuff to just work. Also if anything goes wrong or I can't use any apps I will need, will I be able to restore the backups of Lollipop I have taken with TWRP to roll back to Lollipop?
Many thanks in advance, if this has been covered somewhere please send me links, I've been reading the forum for about 24 hours and getting dizzy now
Ps Does anyone know how to get rid of the ugly o2 splash screen on boot?
Hi!
If you use the second link ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/general/rom-6-0-1-version-010-01-kernel-3-10-49-t3518041 ):
*need twrp 3.0.0-0 or above to flash it
* fastboot - ok
* Loose root but can be rooted thrue TWRP
*It have TWRP
.
Thanks for confirming, I'll give it a go later on today. Btw if I need to restore the old system, do I need to restore the system image partition or only system and data? not sure which partitions are being overwritten when flashing a different os version...

Backup those two in Recovery. If you want your data back, Backup /data. If not just backup /system. You might have to factory reset the phone though. Again, might.
ended up using Person78 script to do the full backup. Flashed his Rom, all working well.
Thanks folks
Hi everyone,
I'm a noob to the OPO and also a bit of a noob to backing up and restoring individual partitions, although I have some experience with flashing the Nexus 5 and Z3C with B2GOS and /e/.
I'd like to put Ubuntu Touch on my OPO. I'd like to make sure I can return the phone to stock afterwards, if needed (e.g., I want to sell it as stock). I was thinking of taking partition images with TWRP first, will this be sufficient? I see there's a tool for backing up the EFS as well, so I suppose I should do that.
Or maybe I need to do nothing! Will it be sufficient just to reflash stock firmware when I want to return to stock? If a combination of both flashing stock firmware and TWRP images, EFS backup, what order does it need to be done in?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Cheers

Hi,
I don't have much time at the moment. I tested Ubuntu Touch just a few weeks ago. Some (not all) bacon users have broken Wlan. I'm one of them. Because of that I went back to Android. So it's possible.
It was a bit tricky. Of course I recommend a full nandroid backup. Copy it to a save place (for example your PC). Don't change any partitions on your phone during installation.
To go back (if I'm remembering wright):
- flash latest recovery via fastboot
- reboot in recovery (for me it was still the Ubuntu recovery)
- anywhere there was an option to boot Android
- take this option and you will reboot in the Android recovery
- there you can restore your previous backup
Hope I could help. If you try Ubuntu Touch, please report, of Wlan works for you.
Good luck. And add said: I don't really remember the whole procedure, so at your own risk.

Thanks for the tip about WLAN, I didn't know about that. If I have any issues I'll post here and in the UBPorts forum.
Okay, a full Nandroid backup I can do. But don't I have to flash TWRP to the recovery partition to do that? If so, do I need to backup the recovery partition somehow first?
Thanks

No, I don't think you need. It would be good to have the original recovery file... But I never backed up my original recoveries. One of the first things I make with a new phone is flashing twrp. So I would just download the latest image for Bacon and flash it via fastboot.
I recommend to back up your personal data (pictures, documents, ...) ton tour PC. Who knows.

Thanks, that's helpful. I don't actually know how to backup the recovery partition other than using root access and presumably some ADB command, so if it's not needed then that's good news. I will of course backup my data first, but a reminder is always a good thing!
