Tried to flash the wrong rom. now tablet wont turn on. when plugged into pc it comes up as m6 chip and i have no drivers. can anyone point me in the right direction.
Hello,
I suggest you to download AMLOGIC BURNING TOOL
this will also install the required drivers for M6 Chip .... but you have to find out correct files for using with it.

I read on another webforum about how to write back a rom dump using uberizer, careful though, i remember some version being unable to restore a rom dump

Revisiting this tab as my solution for having it work was to fling together parts of the nx008, not perfect, I still needed to get the original ROM.
Can you perhaps provide me with a dump of the original ROM?
Also if you need help loading the rom onto the bricked one, I believe I can be of some help.
Thanks
Hi guys,
Wondering if anyone here has the know how to help.
Im fiddling with some new Kobo arcs, the 7HD and the 10HD and im having some bother with installing a custom recovery img.
For simplicity sake im going to refer to them as the same device as they are both behaving the same way
The device is rooted, and I am able to flash a custom recovery made by Jenkins builder but its not functional, when you boot to the recovery OS it just goes black and the back light flashes on an off (screen remains black it just lightens up)
At this point I can reboot as normal and adb to it and flash the original recovery img and all is well.
As far as I can tell its bootloader is unlocked but there might be a second bootloader im not able to interact with yet, possible called uboot?
From adb I am able to reboot the device in to bootloader and fastboot and both function as id expect, but the problem im having is booting directly to fastboot in case I bugger something up which would allow me to fix it.
I can boot the device in to a "mode" that tries to install an APX device, ive tried using various adb, fastboot, and composite drivers and nothing seems to work, ive downloaded some old NVidia APX tegra 2 drivers ive found but these fail to work with the NVFlash utility that comes with it, it says unknown device found, which would make sense given the utility is at least 3 years old
So firstly,
Does anyone know what might course the customer recovery rom to fail and yet flash like it is doing, if so any suggestions where to start to look for a solution?
Secondly,
Does anyone know much about this APX mode and how to actually put it to good use the driver appears to work and communicate but im needing something desktop wise to talk to it...?
hope you guys can help
edit
ive answered some of question 2 myself, it appears its a pain in the arse by all accounts and not as user friendly as I was hoping, I can send commands to it but it appears that commands may need to be "signed" of sorts as I don't get any response other than acknowledgment of the command sent, ill monitor the USB traffic and see if that sheds some light, it also appears that NVflash (not to be confused with its cousin in the GPU arena) is also hopelessly out of date and once again Linux is needed to get something more updated, if there is ANY help at all id appreciate some input

I know this is old, but how did you flash the original recovery? I think I need to do this so that I can install the update ZIP for the Kobo 10. CWM is failing to install the file.
Welcome to the comprehensive guide on rooting and unbricking your precious TF103C!
Some words of wisdom and truth
You will most likely be here because, you know, your device is bricked.
First of all, I would like to say that none of the downloadable links are made by me. I happened to find them laying around XDA after looking for a solution for a long time.
Skip this if you don't want to know the reason behind this thread
I got this device a while back (my guess is 4 months), and loved it from the start. Rooted it, of course, and soon after, it didn't want to boot anymore.
As there isn't much development going on (due to the locked bootloader), it's hard to find a solution for bricking. While scrolling, I came upon a post from member gouster3, which came to the solution below. I myself have used this successfully, and have my tablet back. In my opinion, also on rooting, there was no dedicated thread available that really explained the steps to root the device, so as a thank you to the guys who got my tablet fixed, here it is!
The rooting process
The rooting of this tablet is quite easy, really! I'll explain in a few simple steps.
Head into settings > security > then turn on unknown sources
Download the Rootzenfone .apk file. get it here
Install the app (if it is still in your notification bar you can just press the downloaded file, or you can navigate to it's location to install from there)
Turn on airplane mode before you open the app
Open the app, and hit "OK, I know, please root!" (when you press this, a number of screens and a popup will show, ignore those)
5 seconds after pressing, restart your tablet.
Hooray! You are now rooted!
Unbricking your device
Luckily, unbricking is almost as easy as rooting the phone, if you know the steps you have to follow. Here's what you could do (it worked for me) if you still have acces to DROIDboot.
As always, install the adb drivers first! get it here
# You can also make sure the correct driver is installed when plugging in the device in DROIDboot mode. In you device manager it should show up as Android Debug Bridge#
Download these files, containing a clean system. get it here
Make sure the device is turned off, and the battery is at least 50% (just to ensure a complete flash before your battery runs out)
Hold volume+ and power untill the asus screen pops up, then release the power button.
Plug in the tablet to your pc (usb cable) when DROIDboot has been loaded.
Open the downloaded folder, and find 'update_image.bat'
Right click the .bat file, and choose 'run as administrator'
A CMD screen should open on your PC indicating the flashing status. All you have to do now (assuming that it works as intended) is wait untill the process is completed.
Your tablet will reboot automatically when the process is done.
That's it! the 2 things that keep this tablet alive. I would like to send a thanks to the members who were so kind to help me out on this.
gouster3, for providing the link to the unbrick solution
Eclipse00, for giving the link to the rootzenfone apk
Monki, for giving me a clean system.img and putting effort into getting my tablet running again
To all of you, thanks!
It works on my TF103CX too. (it is same hardware).
When i bricked my TF103CX, i had around 80% of battery, but i was not able to charge,
so be careful when bricking. Always do interventions to system with full battery.
//I think, we need add our TF103C to xda device list. it will be nice.
I heared that using Intel Manufacting Tool we can get UEFI instead of Droidboot, and boot Ubuntu/Windows on IntelBay tablets. I found guide for Teclast: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/teclast-x98-air-3g-tablet-9-7-2048x1536-t2913035 But i cannot find any UEFI fot TF103C. I dont want to full brick m device with trying flash it.
Here is original thread in russian language.
Thanks
Thanks for helping me rescue my tablet. Much appreciated
Could anyone please confirm if the rooting method may be used on the TF103CG (K018) model? Or in general is the app able to root any device that is anyhow Zen-related?
this don´t work if you have lillipop on tf103c, the droidboot don´t load, You only get Fasboot starting and nothing more...
i want the raw lollipop image ( system.img ) for tf103c
will this essentially work as a factory reset? mine touch isn't working; and i just want to nuke all my data off the device
Hello all, I just ordered a TF0310C (Best Buy exclusive) from woot.com which will be here tomorrow and the closest thing I can find information on is the TF103C (both are Intel processors), and just trying to find as much info on it as I can. I was unable to find any roms or anything for the TF0310c, will things from the TF103C work on the TF0310C such as rooting or custom recovery at least?

Unbrick not working on tf103c running KK. It looked like it was doing something, but no luck. Any common troubleshooting tips?

I know its a bit late, but perhaps better than never. I'd say those devices are identical, but somehow there is a weird naming mixup. Here are the official ASUS pages for them:
http://www.asus.com/supportonly/ASUS Transformer Pad TF0310C/HelpDesk/
https://www.asus.com/Tablets/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_TF103C/specifications/
Whatever you do on the first link, it will be eventually redirected to somewhere that belongs to the second. Their specifications are also basically the same. This is still a guessing game tough, so the best would be to compare 2 build properties, partition tables etc. of those devices to know more.
Rooting will most likely work, Zenroot should do it regardless of device type.
hello,
i have tried different way to unbrick my tf103c, but none is working
i have access to fastboot
i successfully run your bat file to copy the image, but after it reboot and stays on the "asus" logo
if i launch the command after modified the name of the "AS-TF103C-v67.43-capsule.bin" into "capsule.bin", it reboot then a blue progress bar is showing, when the bar is complete the tab reboots, but again it stays on the "asus" logo :'(
do you have any advise ?
Same issue
Hello,
I have the same issue with my tf103c ; i was trying to apply a new update from asus support (to get android 5).
It didn't work and in addition to that, my device results to be bricked.
I have successfully run the bat file, but then i get stuck at Asus logo and device never boot...
Icarolo did you manage to solve your issue ? Is someone really succeed in unbrick tf103c device ?
Thank you in advance
Dead
Hi! I have an asus tf103c and i rooted it with the rootzenfone.apk but now it doesn't turn on at all. after i pressed okay, waited about 15 sec and then i restarted it, but it just turned off. And now it's dead. What should i do?
ASUS K010 (TF103C). I forgot how to enter Recovery
Hello everyone, I have an ASUS K010 (TF103C). The complete model is TF103C-MB1-BLK-DK.
I forgot how to enter Recovery. My Asus is bricked. I know it is possible to enter the recovery because a few months ago I entered and also enter droidboot mode. On that occasion I discovered pressing the buttons energy, volume +, volume - somehow, because I did not work the methods that were in different sites websites, but now I do not remember the exact way of pressing the buttons. I tried many methods but they do not work, only the "Asus looking for incredible" logo appears. The battery has a charge (I charge it manually).
If someone has this same model and knows how to enter the recovery would greatly appreciate it.:good:
I think you can enter the droidboot menu by pressing Volume Up + Power for several secondes.
i dont have acces to DROIDboot.
How can unbrick my tf103c.. thanks

Unbricking tf103c
Hello,
Is it possible to unbrick somehow a device like mine. I dont have either bootloader or recovery or anything (I have two same tablets) and I mess one up. After new update touch screen stopped working so I installed something (I dont remember) i installed new recovery and then tried to install new rom...Every time I power it on (doesnt matter standar od with combos it just show asus logo in search of incredible and that's it. I managed if I press both VOL - and VOL + AND PWRBTN I get something in device manager "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"! Is there anything I can do?
Hello,
I download from the ASUS website the firmware with version "V10.4.2.18 Only for WW SKU (Android 4.1)" and the pop-up for update de firmware appear normally to me.
Then, the TF201 restarted and since then does not passes through the ASUS Logo.
I Was on 4.0.0.3, firmware 9.4.2.28 and tried to upgrade to a superior version (my mistake as I can see now).
Even when restarting with Power + VOL DOWN the only thing that appears is :
----......................
The Device is Unlocked.
Android cardhu-user bootloader <2.10 e> released by "WW_epad-9.4.2.28-20120525" A03
Checking for android ota recovery
Booting recovery kernel image
-----------
And stays here forever... No option with the 3 icons, so I can choose USB... And neither the VOL UP during this process does nothing...
Anyone can help?
Thanks in advance
Looks like you updated to an incompatible version. The first thing you needed to do was to unlock the bootloader. Volume up will not work unless you specifically enable nvflash, which is the second thing you needed to do. Considering that you still have usb, you may be able to use fastboot to replace your recovery. From there you may still be able install an older rom. If you can get at least some kind of rom running, you'll want to enable nvflash first thing so that you can make your tablet bricksafe. Let us know if you get that far...

I installed the drives and the PC recognizes the TF-201.
But it seems that fastboot can't recognize the tablet.
Well, I didn't get so far...
But I still want to try, but I'm a little lost...
Any help?

From my PC device manager I can see the asus transformer Prime APX Interface and is saying that "This device is working properly.".
However, every command that I sent from fastboot the result is always the same:

I'm completely out of ideas to get this back to work...
THATS BAD do u have working adb ?
No i don't...
HOW to Reserruct from APX mode^
HI all,
I have been searching for months how to unbrick the tf201 after trying to load the official update from Asus.
I see so many users stuck like myself in APX mode with the "unlocked" message and Asus Logo.
I have tried in all described ways on the forums to get it to fastboot mode but nothing is helping.
Asus as many have written, are charging a lot for repair, I even bought another used one hoping I could upload the saved blob file from it but it is device related as I read. Is there any solution that will help?
I see a lot of advanced users creating roms and upgrades but never proposing how to unbrick this device in APX mode.
Thank you for all developers here who take the time to push things forward. :angel:
