[Help] Asus Transformer TF101G - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i hope i can get some help or new ideas to try out.
So first of all just to make this clear i didn't come here directly before coming here i almost punched "my" tablet.
What i want to say with that is that i searched and tried what ever i could but no success.
My Asus:
Transformer TF101G
Android Version 4.0.3
Kernel Version 2.6.39.4 [email protected] #1
Build Number IML74K.WW_epad-9.2.2.6-20120525
My Problem With The Asus:
So everything is fine tablet runs it is a bit slow and applications automatically close (minimize) and get messages that the app xxx stooped working.
And when i connect to the internet the tablet starts to download from the internet apps and advertising and +18 apps so by doing this the cpu and ram is used at max and --->>>--- you can't use the tablet anymore ---<<<---
What i want to do:
Is to fully install KatKiss-4.4.4
What i tried:
1. At first i didn't had a USB cable to connect to PC so i hardly managed to install ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.3 but in recovery mode when i want to chose .zip from sdcard gives me an error "Can't Mount /sdcard/" = FAILED
2. Second after a while i bought a USB cable but i can't even start to try this method the first thing i have to do is to put the tablet in APX mode but it doesn't go in the stupid APX mode i press VOL up + POWER and hold for 15-20, 30,40,60+ sec but nothing removed battery tried again nothing i did VOL up + VOL down + POWER and hold for 15-20, 30, 40... sec still nothing, i went in recovery did from there all the above things and nothing also tried with tabled ON still nothing USB connected and not connected still nothing.
I have 3 computers 2 win 10 and 1 win 7, win 10 not detecting not doing any song, BUT when i plug the tablet to win 7 it makes my USB ports to stop working and i have to uninstall and give restart to my PC nothing else it doesn't show anything new in my Device Manager.
USB Cable Model OTB-DK001 Made in China from Germany 7.80€
So i think that's all for now any questions ill answer any ideas i will try except for other USB Cable unless you are 90% sure and except for using an hammer on the tablet because its not mine i guess that's why it is still in One Piece (and no not the anime One Piece).
Mhh HELP !!:highfive:

[Q] No aPX-mode anymore on my Asus Transformer.

[POSTED IN THE WRONG FORUM. REPOSTED @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174493]
Hello Folks,
I seem to have a problem and I can't find an answer in the forums.
I rooted my Asus Transformer with Android 3.1 using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125714
I only rooted the Transformer, I didn't install CWM. Everything was working fine until my overenthusiastic wife updated the tablet with the 8.4.4.11-20110711 update. Suddenly my tablet was unrooted again. I thought "No problem, no harm's done, I'll just reinstall the stock 3.1 and then root the device once again and just leave the new update for what it is for the moment."
The problem is that I can't get into APX mode anymore. When I try to start the device with vol+ and the power button, nothing's happening. Both buttons are working fine (neither's stuck). I thought that the device might just be showing me a blank screen but when I press and hold vol+ and the power button for 5, 10 or 30 seconds then wait 30 secs and start adb.exe it says my device isn't connected.
When I press vol- and the power button I do get the option to wipe all my data and factory reset (which I tried and is working).
When I press vol- and the power button then vol+ when it's booting to get into RCK (recovery kernel mode) I get a droid image with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark. Nothing happening.
Anyone got a clue what's going on and or how I can solve this issue?
The Transformer is working fine besides not being able to get into APX mode btw. I can use it, just can't root it anymore.
same situation here, just bought my eeePad today, updated to .11 version....now trying to root but can't figure out how...
I'm having the same problem. Brand new transformer, rooted it, and now I can't get it to boot past the splash screen. Tried putting it back into APX mode, and it doesn't work. Anyone find a solution to this?
I didnt even root mine and i have this ****ing problem -.-
Same problem..
You'll notice if you watch the device manager on windows, it flashes a refresh but the device doesn't show up. Looks like it's trying to work but doesn't catch..
SSame here after using Brk's on my 3.2 B70 tf101.
Same here. 3.1, rooted, CWM.
Same here on an Asus running Android 3.2.
Serial number B60KA.
Build number on mine is 8.6.5.9-20110816.
Anyone find a solution to this?
My friends tablet is at HTK75.US-8.6.5.13-20110925 and I just got it in to APX mode.
I had the Transformer turned off and plugged in, held vol up + power until I hear the first US notification noise and released the two buttons. The searching for drivers screen came up and it installed "Nvidia Bootloader Recovery" And now my safe to eject calls it APX.
I found if you hold the power and volume up for too long it messes things up.
Any news anyone? I would love to know how to do get into APX mode. The volume + and power is not working for me like the others (did it all conceivable ways).
APX already on
Hi, I solved this problem very easy.
Just connected my eeePad, installed the APX driver after Volume up and Power on Button and it was working. You will see nothing on eeePad screen. Just check the device manager on your computer.

stuck in cwm, adb wont work

hi guys
I've been searching and trying around some days but I cant get it fixed.
My Transformer TF101 is stuck in a CWM bootloop and cant get anything done.
Cant access my rom anymore, cold boot wont work and my pc wont reconize my tablet anymore.
Adb wont work any way, tried many things.
Maybe anyone got a solution for this?
Greetings,
My suggestions:
1- Try a different PC. Quick solution - use a Live Linux CD/DVD to boot linux and on your current PC and see if that works.
2 - Does APX mode work? If your PC detects it in APX mode (not linux, but Windows) then you can use NVFlash/Wheelie or EasyFlasher to flash a working recovery.
3 - Do you need a new charging cable? It IS possible that your cable still charges but does not work for ADB/APX. I had this happen to me.
It's kinda weird, adb did work 1 time and then the tablet went off because it was out of battery and now I can't get it back anyway..
APX mode is with power + volume down right?
I got the black screen but thats all.. computer(s) will still not see the tablet connected.
USBDeview doesnt even reconize my tablet connecting anymore.. probably my usb cable, what u mentioned.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
APX mode is Power & Volume Up, you'll see nothing on the tablet screen, but if you have it connected to USB, the PC should see it when it enters APX

[Q] Bricked TF101?

Hello everyone,
some days ago I flashed Android Revolution HD but shortly I've found out that the TF101 wasn't recognized anymore by my PCs. When I've inserted the stock cable the tablet turned on but nor win 8.1 64bit nor windows 7 64bit recognized it. It even hasn't appeared between the unknown devices in the related window, so I couldn't install any drivers. Then I've decided to clean cache and system on TWRP recovery and after reboot the TF101 was stuck on logo screen, the boot one, not the next one with the ASUS logo.
Now the stock cable and the stock charger still work, they charge the tablet but the charging screen doesn't appear, if I turn on the device, it shows only the first android logo with the green bar, if I try to enter recovery with volume down button, it says 'entering the recovering' but it doesn't go any further. Last chance is the APX mode, with the volume up and turn on button: I've tried it but I can't recognize if it enters APX or not, I only know that in the devices list doesn't appear any unknown device, and I'm sure that the TF101 has never been connected before to this PC. At least, if I was able to connected it in APX I would use Easyflasher and flash stock rom.
Basically now it's a bricked tablet, any help please? Someon can tell me specifically how to enter APX mode, or is it a cable issue? Is this thing called 'governor' related to this?

[Q] Unable to unbrick my transformer

I've had my eee Pad Transformer TF101 for a few years now. I've had it rooted for most of the time, I've installed several roms before. But a few months ago I hard bricked (Pretty sure it's a hard brick) my tablet installing a new rom.
It will turn on, but it well stay on the ASUS logo for 5 minutes then turn off and start back at the ASUS logo until it turns off again. I use the power and down key to somewhat access recovery. I attempt to access recovery but all I get is a screen with an android on it's back with the red explanation point signal. The blue bar under the android acts like it loading, but I never get past this screen, and after a few minutes it will reboot to the ASUS logo again.
Also when I plug my tablet into my computer it will recognize that something is plugged in but is unable to install the driver. I've attempted to install other drivers but my computer wont allow me to, it keeps telling me the driver I have installed is the best driver, even though its not working.
I've looked all over xda, and I've tried easyflasher and peri. but I'm unable to connect to my computer successfully in order to get either to work.
Does anyone have any advice?
You need to get the Universal Naked Drivers installed
If you are running 64bit Windows, disable driver signing from safemode options - or use Win 7 32bit
Win 8.x needs driver signing disabled for both flavours
--
You need to stick the TF into APX mode (Power off then Vol up & power till the PC recognises it and tries to install the drivers) then install the above drivers and try Easyflasher again
I got the Universal Drivers working a few hours ago. I was able to boot into APX and have my transformer recognized by my computer. I ran Easyflasher several times trying to flash a recovery and using the stock/unbrick option, but it hadn't ran all the way through or told me on the tablet that it was successful until a few minutes ago. I tried again a few minutes ago and Easyflasher went all the way through and the tablet stated on screen that it was successful, excpet now I can't boot at all or even attempt to pull up recovery, it now doesn't boot into anything but APX.
Did you use the correct SBK on Easyflasher?
B6O serials and earlier are SBK1, some B7Os too, the rest above are SBK2
Wont do any harm using the wrong one, it just wont work
And to get out of APX mode, hold power for 30 seconds~, then power on normally
--
Did you try flashing it back to stock using the stock firmware instructions on the Easyflasher page ?
If you only flashed TWRP recovery, you will need to power on normally (not recovery) at least once and hopefully see the blue update progress bar under the ASUS logo for a few seconds while it updates RCK - then you should be able to power off and press VOL DOWN & POWER till you see the white text at the top of the TF screen - then release all buttons and within 5 seconds, hit POWER UP once to enter recovery

Is my ASUS Zenpad S really dead after a failed unlock attempt?

Hi my fellow XDA people,
I recently got a Zenpad S 8.0 (Z580CA) for close to nothing and I loved the little thing. However it was still running 6.0.1 and I decided I wanted a custom ROM and root it. Starting with some guides how to unlock the bootloader I started with the whole ADB/Fastboot thing, but it got stuck and now I got a bricked device
The situation now:
Charging works fine
The tablet starts, but without the ASUS logo and immediately enters a bootloop with the following:
the Android robot with a hardhat
A USB image with the text: "No USB Cable connected!" (No matter if there is or isn't any USB cable connected)
To fix it I'm hoping to get to a recovery/droidboot menu to do a hard reset or update from SD or via a PC, but I've tried the following without any result:
Power + volume up
Power + volume down
Power + volume up + volume down
Drain the battery and one of the options above
Connecting to a PC and using adb/fastboot/asus flashtool
Unfortunately this option doesn't work, because the PC only recognizes the tablet for a second when the android man shows, but disconnects as soon as the " no usb cable connected!" is in screen.
A different Cable/PC makes no difference
I'm afraid it's really dead now, but I'm hoping anyone has an idea or finds this a challenge .
