[Q] Need Help with Asus MemoPad FHD 10 (ME302C) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My wife has a stock, unrooted, developer options off Asus MemoPad FHD 10 (ME302C) that is stuck on the Asus logo. I am able to get into the bootloader which says:
IFWI VERSION: 51.33
SERIAL_NUM: 1111111111111111
DROIDBOOT VERSION: Local Build or ENG version
PRODUCT: US_EPAD
At the bottom it has:
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Unable to mount /cache! we skip check debricking
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Unable to mount /cache! we skip check debricking
FASTBOOT INIT...
FASTBOOT CMD WAITING...
I have attempted to do the Factory Reset and it says:
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Unable to mount /cache! we reformat now!
At this point the green progress bar pops up but stops moving and it will stay like this until the battery dies.
I have attempted "Fastboot -w" which results in it beginning to erase the user data with the progress bar moving properly but again it will stay like this until the battery dies and fastboot reports that it fails due to too many links.
I have attempted to flash recovery, and boot both ending in send ok write failed. Hopefully someone here may know what to do next.

Same problem, a next step to solve 31122014
Hello, I have the same Problem with this ASUS tablet. There is a different product type, instead of US_EPAD it shows me WW_EPAD.
One next step I found to solve the problem is, that the tablet need a connection to the Internet. In the middle of the screen there are read "No USB cable connected!. Link the tablet to the net and it is changing to "Ready for download".
I am not further which download is it, but maybe someone can tell here? Please!

Problem solved, but it takes to replace motherboard
Pierre again.
I sent tablet to ASUS-Repair in Europe. They checked functions and tried different Software updates. At the end there are no success by repairing or trying things. They changed Motherboard and the issue was solved.
Bye, Pierre

My tablet is the same IFMI VERSION: 51.33 US_EPAD the only way I fixed it was download newest firmware off ASUS support and used fastboot.exe to flash it to my tablet. Good as new. 1. fastboot -w 2.fastboot flash update <update.zip> The second on on my machine looked like this.
fastboot flash update US_ME302C-V5.0.21-0-ota-user.zip The tablet won't work if you try to flash an image older than what you had.

Bricked? Boots into Recover, Cannot get into Fastboot.

Was installing the hairybean bootloader, it was on the blue bar loading page, it stopped half way and restarted. It will only boot into TWRP, and it asks for a password. I press the log button and it says:
* Verifying filesystems...
* Verifying partition sizes...
E:Unable to mount '/cache' (tw_mount)
E:Can't open /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
(No such file or directory)
etc...
It will not read my micro sd card, I press install, there are folders but none that I recognize or any that would be of any help
I was planning to sell this tonight -.-
Am I doomed?
I'm sorry for posting this. This was my last resort, I searched everywhere for 4+ hours, and nothing.
Thanks
Edit: I can now boot in apx mode, could I do anything with this?
I also tried the Option 1 on the unbricking thread, in the cmd prompt it says it works but it is the same deal when you turn it back on.
Edit: I can now get into fastboot by typing adb reboot-bootloader fastboot.
Help would be much appreciated!!! Im selling this tomorrow!!!

[Q] [m7][ATT] Htc One Softbricked. fastboot flash recovery/ RUU / erase cache failed

I’m using this HTC One from AT&T for almost a year, unlocked and rooted and flashed with the google edition room from day I bought it, and currently on Kitkat 4.4 provided by bigxie on this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395, using recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3. With the RevOne method, I also get S-OFF (prerequisite for using kitkat 4.4 rom). Yesterday out of blue my phone died with 90% battery. I could get into the bootloader menu and that seems to be the furthest point I could reach. Here is the print out from bootloader:

The only working part now is fastboot devices, when I boot the phone and connect it to my pc via usb cable

Interestingly, adb command doesn’t work, returning an empty list

Running out of energy and I might just contact HTC or ATT as the last resort. Any suggestion and comments are very appreciated. Thank you!
When you tried locking the boot loader, did it ever work? You could also try another usb cable, sometimes my fastboot fails with certain ones.
no the relock failed. I tried two different cables, both of which works fine with other devices.

contact AT&T it sounds like your Motherboard went out
and adb only works in recovery or when the phone is booted to the os
with your old hboot you could try fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
and see if you can do a factory reset from their
Thanks a lot! doing: fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img does bring me to the TWRP screen.
However, from there, when I try to do "Restore", my internal storage is 0 MB. Nothing there.
When I tried "Advanced -> HTC Dumblock -> Restore Original Boot", it seems again the internal disk is totally wiped.

well if you can get into TWRP go to wipe / format data / and Factory Reset
then go to Advanced / ADB Sideload / check the 2 boxes /swipe to sideload
then from your PC sideload your Rom back to the phone and hope it works
put your rom in the same folder as adb / fastboot and from a command prompt
shift+right click / command prompt here
adb sideload name-of-rom.zip
Well, both step failed.
When I do wipe -> format data -> confirm by typing YES, twrp restarted, then I do Factory Reset, the following error occured. Basically, it can't mount internal storage.
E: unable to find partition size for '/boot'
E: unable to find partition size for '/recovery'
E: Primary block device '/dev/block/mmcblk0p37' for mount point '/data/ is not present!
E: unable to mount '/data'
E: unable to create /data/media folder
.....
E: unable to mount internal storage.
When I went to Advance->ADB Sideload, with the two box checked and started sideload, "adb devices" on my PC terminal still returned a empty device list, therefore, sideload a backup room is not possible either.
The whole things looks like the partition table for the internal disk is corrupted. I'll go to AT&T and see if they could fix it.
Thank you so much clsA for the inputs!

How did you get on with this in the end? I have recently had the same problem and can't find any posts that are similar to the situation or and solutions! I get the exact same messages on adb, I can't flash recovery and can't lock the bootloader or erase the cache! Unlike you though the adb boot "recovery".img doesn't load twrp for me. It says that it is a success but then the phone freezes, and I have to reboot with power and vol down.
I have to give up and took it to AT&T. Since I'm still in the first year warranty period, I got a replacement, with a 90 days warranty.
Believe it or not, the same problem occurred after about 80 days of normal use! This time I did not even bothered to fix it, just took it back again to AT&T, and got yet another replacement, with the new Sense UI on it. Don't know how long this one will last.

I have a sprint htc one but I was in the same boat. Unable to mount data and internal storage. What I just did was while in boot loader I clicked on the factory reset option and it took me into twrp. It wiped everything and it seem to be working after I flashed a rom. Right now I'm trying to nandroid back with a otg cable.

I had this issue after flashing sense firmare over the GPE 5.1 firmare.
With your solution in TWRP i have reformated it to exFat first and than back to ext4 -> now it works!

Mtk device hard bricked

Hello , i have a mt6589t device (Hisense U980), yesterday it was totally normal , when i opened facebook messenger app the screen became black , and the phone stopped responding, i removed the battery and reinserted it , and powered on the device, but it stacks on logo , i tried to wipe data via cwm recovery, but it shows me an error when it open
Code:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Failed closing /dev/misc
(I/O error)
E:Cant mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Failed closing /dev/misc
(I/O error)
and when i tried the factory reset it shows :
Code:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p7
Formatting /cahce...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
....
Some other informations :
1-the cwm recovery is fully compatible with this device, i use it from months without any problem
2-i used also another recovery (philz touch) but it gives the sames errors
3-when i use the stock recovery it doesn't show any error when i try the factory reset
4-i tried to flash it many times with spflashtool i tried "download" and "format+download" both doesn't show any error and show the "download successful window" but the phone still stuck at logo.
thank you very much
You have a few options here. I will rank them from safest but less chance of working to non safe but really good chance or working.
1: USB Jig. Google it. Amazon has some. A USB Jig forces the device into download mode. ODIN?
2: Fast boot Cable. Amazon. Forces the device into fast boot and flash a new one. OR erase a few partitions and extract stock rom and flash IMG. Example: fast boot flash boot boot.img
3: SP Flash tool good tutorials on these forums or Google. You need to make a scatter file for your mtk chipset.

[HELP] Dead Asus Padfone S, Can't boot to recovery mode.

OK, so first, My padfone S automatically reboot and stuck on asus logo for a while, then after exhaustively waited , i manually hit power button for 30 second and it reboot but, still stuck on the asus logo. At this time i try to enter the recovery mode and try to wipe cache wipe /cache partition. It gives a bunch of can't mount error line. But still there's one line saying wipe completed. Then i try to wipe everything, and same error can't mount but still wipe completed was shown. At this time i was so stressed i try to follow the recommendation which posted http://forum.xda-developers.com/padfone-x/help/guide-restoring-stock-rom-recovery-t3179818 ..
I skipped to the part where i enter fastboot and open up adb tools to flash TWRP_2.8.7.0 to unlock bootloader. Before this, I try using adb devices command line but, my devices was not shown. So after i flashing TWRP as mentioned, it show exactly what Ninekaw has said, [ It will show that flashing FAILED (remote: can't flash unsigned image), it fact, it was succeeded, ] .. Then when i try to enter the recovery mode as for the next step, It stuck on the Asus logo. Now i can't even enter to recovery mode, my adb tools can't detected my devices. I don't know what to do. Please oh please merciful android race. HELP ME. I'm a noob to this kind of technology.
Oh.. the error command line in recovery mode
and the error command line was,
E: can't mount, change path -dev/lock/emmcblk1
E: can't mount /cache partition
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/log1
E: can't mount /cache/bootloader
E: can't mount /cache/bootloader1
Seriously?
Seriously guys? no help at all? man, i'm disappointed after all the website i go through mention to go consult in this website.. maybe the community here wasn't as good others pictured it would..
