ICS update failed: DMClient stopped - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I've just purchased transformer prime, tryed to upgrade to ICS, then it started to download the update, but I needed to turn off the unit before it finish to download.
then, later I tryed again, but now I keep getting the error message:
"the application DMClient process com.asus.dm has stopped unexpectedly please try again"
and it won't start the download.
I've tried factory reset, cold reboot, clear and stop CMClient and DMClient,
but nothing helps...
Did anyone experianced this problem ?

No, but powering off during an update on any device is a no-no. At best nothing happens, at worst (consider this the more likely path) you corrupt your OS and will need to restore from a backup (not possible ATM) or reformat (manually reinstall your current update)
http://support.asus.com/download.as...sformer+Prime+TF201&hashedid=FqCKMQDqgvSncfFM
Again, never power off during an update (or any file reading/writing), this is a sure-fired way to corrupt system and personal files.

Thanks!
I didn't think that shutting it down while it's just downloading the file will cause any damage... I tought it will just cancel the download and the update...
anyway, I manually installed the latest 4.0.3 version from the web site (via sd card) then wipe and all is good.

Well, far as I know just downloading should have been fine, no clue what happened there.
Glad you got it worked out though!
P.s. I feel idiotic for not saying so in my first response, but of course installing from SD card fully formats the device and wipes out all information on the internal SD. Back up what you can regularly to an external SD/mSD

It didn't wipe automatically (I still had my apps and google account), but I still had "DMClient stopped working" problems after the installation, so I wiped manually and it's good now. I'm not sure about the internal SD, I didn't have anything on it.

I have had the same issue, but the error occured right out of the box... trying to fix now

Need help - Constant "Download Unsuccessful" when downloading from market

It started out when I updated my custom ROM to a newer version. After the first boot (after a full wipe, too), my apps weren't restored. I went to the Android market to try to download the missing apps and I kept getting an error: "Download of 'app name' was unsuccessful". I did a couple more full wipes and nothing, so I found another custom ROM, did a full wipe and installed and I still have the same problem.
I tried to Google some fixes for the problem but none worked. I tried clearing the cache and data for the market, update manager and Google Talk manager and got nothing. I unmounted my SD card, turned off my phone, removed the SD card and put it all back and nothing happened. I really don't know what to do now.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
EDIT: I fixed it. Turns out I had a bad radio. Flashed a new one and it's back to normal.
Sorry misread the post...

android.process.media stopped

I started with a new g tablet when I turned it on it wanted to do a update. I did not do the update from viewsonic. Then I loaded cwmod then then VEGAn-GE-7.0.0-RC1-Harmony-signed.zip. All went well start unit and I was able to goto and download from the market with no issues even downloade new flash from the market and worked very well. When I was useing it the market started to force shut down when I went to install app. it progessed to do force shutdowns.
So I did the proper sd partions reinstall vegan still same cant even get passed the google sign in in the begining. I then downloaded and load the tablet back to stock with cwmod when in the stock mode I did get force shutdown when I would mount the usb but that was the only time. Now I started over with cwmod then vegan still samething. Any thoughts would be great thanks.
update
I did some more reading and decided to do the fix priorites it seams to work so I did the google market fix deleating in maret and google then got the error rebooted now google market dose not open . I will have to do some reading on this. Any pointers
try this Settings>Applications>Manage>All> find Media Storage and then Clear Data... and reboot
update . So far so good I did a total restore useing NVFlash. Then when it booted up it wanted to do a ota update so I let it do it this time. I then reload vegan with all the clockworks then wiped data, cahe and fix priorites.
this works for me...happens once in a while...i'm surprised its not known more widely..many people seem to do a complete wipe to get ride of it
from another post:
I noticed at least two people in this thread have had this problem. The following worked for me... At one point I started getting this error also. Driving me crazy! Could not bring up the keyboard, and the message would pop like every 5 seconds. I searched and found this post (thanks and credit to KinkyMunkey):
process com.android.acore FC and how i fixed it
I didn't want to wipe data, so I tried it. I couldn't use ES File Explorer for this, but Root Explorer worked great!
The problem is a corrupt contacts sqlite database. As the referenced post says, you'll be able to tell if thats the problem when there is a .db-journal file in the folder. The folder is /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/ *Note* this is not the data folder in sdcard, but the data folder in root (/).
Just delete the databases folder in /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts and restart. The contacts database will be rebuilt and re-synced.
This has worked for me twice (thank goodness). I don't know what causes the contacts DB to get messed up... it wasn't a drained battery for me.

Worked great! Thanks!
thanks gpzjack
It was a different database file for me but it solved it. The only thing is that a week later it happened again. This seems to fix it. But does anyone know the cause of the corruped database so we can stop it from happening?

[Q] HELP! Android.Process.Media error. cant use my nook tablet.

I have no idea what this message means or what I can do to fix it. It says "The process android.process.media has stopped working unexpectedly. Please try again"
I just tried to revert it to 1.4.0 when I was at 1.4.3 I was able to fight my way to the settings and device info but under software it says unavailable or unknown. The reverting back had no problems whatsoever. i used Acclaim_update.Zip to do it and followed instructions to the letter. Is there a way to fix this by reinstalling the software differently or possibly a fix for this problem?
Also Please understand it was a hassle to even get to the settings. ive tried resetting and deregistering device. didn't work
Sounds like you need the stock firmware. Hope you get it fixed...could always tell b&n that it happened with the ota 1.4.3 update. If you get it fixed and end up on 1.4.3 again, the ext SD card root method works.

I read this 'can' be caused by a bad SD Card. The logic behind this premise is that Android ( the operating system ) reads a 'bad spot' on the memory card and being really stubborn, will not give up 'trying' to read the data at that bad spot. The fix is to re-do the card completely. Use SDFormatter 3.0

[Q] In desperate need of help!

So I totally jacked up my phone and I don't know what else to do. I have the Galaxy S3 tmobile (sgh-t999). I had rooted it over a year ago and everything was fine until today. I had used Odin and set up the clockworkmod... rom... thing. Of course now I doubt I even did that correctly, maybe I'm just in over my head...anywho...
I was trying to transfer some files from my pc to the phone. (kies air never worked for me) Well, I had plugged in my phone and in windows explorer it showed something along the lines of 'samsung mtp phone' when I opened it up only 2 folders showed... media and data. The data folder looked like the list of files/folders I would see when I'm in the file manager on the phone but everything listed were showing ad unknown file types. No option to open anything up. The media folder was the same but only listed my pictures and music.
Well, i had rebooted phone and computer, reinstalled usb drivers, same result. So I guessed that maybe my rom version was outdated or something. No luck on figuring out how to update, so I had the briliant (sarcasm) idea to try a different rom. Long story short on that mess, the new rom didn't improve anything with help of transferring files from pc. Then I decided maybe factory reset would fix the issue.
Here comes more ignorance on my part, apparently the new mod I put in was removed but the original stayed. Fine whatever. Here's where my phone it jacked up...
First off, I don't have my notification bar (I've checked in every setting menu, no avail)
I am also missing my web browser (tried downloading from play store which leads to next issue)
I cannot download anything from the play store, I click on install and nothing happens, no error message, nothing (I had attempted to download the .apk file for google chrome and move it onto my phone via memory card but when I click on it to install it says 'unable to find application to perform this action')
Now trust me, I have tried clearing cache, clearing data, app permissions, force stop, uninstall updates and I've done a factory reset 5 times. I apologize for the long post, but I just want to give all the info I can and hope to no end that I can get my phone functional again. What else can I do??
wow such a long letter
ok let me think about it
and tell about it soon as possible
Update....
I got the idea to flash the stock rom back onto the phone. After I flashed it and did another factory reset, I have been able to get my phone functional again. Everything is working fine. Even the phone doesn't know it had been rooted. Currently I am getting everything updated while it is still stock, I'll then just root it to get rid of the bloatware... no more tinkering.

Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 - I think I bricked my tablet?

Hello all! I registered real quick in hopes this community could help me out with something.
So quite a while ago I rooted my Lenovo Tab 2A 10-70 tablet with KingoRoot in order to generate a logcat file. That went fine and dandy, and then I disabled some misc. apps (like Kindle for Android). I can't remember exactly what I messed with, so please bear with me.
The issue is that a couple of days ago I tried taking an image with my tablet with the default Camera app, when suddenly it started giving me some errors with generating thumbnails. Worse yet, my computer could not open these and they were seemingly corrupted. The camera started acting up as well, and claimed that "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped working." whenever I attemted to record. I tried clearing the cache based on some recommendations through others and force stopping the app, and this seemingly worked for one recording/picture, but then would stop again. I found deleting the DCIM folder entirely from my Android's Internal Storage helped, but it'd quickly corrupt again.
Frustrated, I asked a friend for help on what to do figuring he had more knowledge in Android devices then me. He suggested I tried another camera app, but I couldn't get Google Play to download anything to the internal storage or my SD card, despite clearly having enough space.
As a last resort, I tried updating through the official "Updates" app to see if that would help me, and it claimed there was a new ROM available. I tried that, but then suddenly it failed and now my tablet seems to bricked? I can now only get the "No command." screen to show up.
I've tried using the following options while on this screen:
- reboot system now - this takes me back to this menu after it shows a Lenovo screen twice, which makes me think it's having trouble booting into Android itself.
- Apply update from ADB/sdcard - Both did nothing for fairly good reason, but I checked these options out of curiosity.
- wipe data/factory reset - Tried these the very first time I got to this screen after a failed installation. It seemingly hasn't worked for me.
- wipe cache partition - Tried this a bit later, but got similar results.
- root integrity check - Scanned a bunch of .apk files, but then later threw up some errors after that was done and said the check failed.
So, in short, I'm stuck in this menu and I'm getting kind of frustrated/scared. Is there anything that I can do to save the tablet at this point? Is there something I did wrong that might have bricked it? I'm not terribly experienced with Android, so I'd love to hear some thoughts from others! I'll gladly take anyway to restore the tablet back to a point where it can actually boot into the OS, and I understand I'd lose some data doing any sort of clean install.
Thank you!

Quite a late reply, but thank you! That ended up working quite nicely! I upgraded my tablet from Lollipop to Kitkat too, which seems to be working a bit better app performance wise for me.
