EEEBox TF201 drivers not working in windows 7 ultimate 64 bit - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I recently purchased a used TF201. The device will not boot however and only shows the key driver missing..... and boots into usb fastmode. I have installed ADB minimal and have the stock rom ready but the drivers for the TF201 refuse to start. They install correctly but every driver brings back error code 10 device cannot start. Please Help

ASUS provide their own version of ADB drivers. Use the one that matches.

Unable to Install Universal Naked Drivers

So I have a TF201 with AndroWook HairyBean v1.0 on it. I did my initial install on a different computer so I have never plugged in my transformer prime to this computer (I no longer have access to the other computer). I have tried installing the Universal Naked Drivers 0.7 in several different methods and none work.
When I plug in my tablet I get an "Unknown Device" prompt. I have tried everything to resolve this, including uninstalling and reinstalling all USB drivers, restarting, etc. and nothing has worked.
I have tried navigating to the drivers themselves to right click install and I get the message "The INF file you selected does not support this method of installation."
I have tired navigating to the "Unknown Device" in device manager and trying to force the installation of the drivers but I get the "The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows x64-based systems."
This is on a Windows 7 64-bit Ult. All USB drivers are up to date. Any other suggestions before I throw my tablet at the wall?

I had this problem, turned out to be a faulty USB cable, try another one, maybe you could take your tablet to a sotre and ask if they can borrow you another cable and test it. Hope this helps.

Thanks. That is what I am hoping. I ordered one online (mine is starting to fall apart at the standard USB end anyways). I was getting desperate yesterday and tried flashing up to AndroWood HairyBean 1.2. It didn't help. I am now stuck without a recovery but access to fastboot so if it is just a cable problem I should be able to get it up and running, otherwise I may have just bricked my tablet.
So it was a faulty cable. Got a new one, can now see my device and was able to fastboot and push the AndroWood Hairybean update to it and we're all good now!
Glad to help.

I'm glad it worked! So do you have Hairybean 1.2? If so, could you tell if it has wifi ad-hoc support? Cause thats the only thing that's keeping me on ICS. Thanks.

[Q] NeoV Fastboot problem

Hello, im trying to get rid of the stock, heavy and crappy ROM from SONY and install a lightweight ROM with 4.0 or higher.
Im stuck at the very first steps though..
Installed JAVA SDK + Android SDK plus the Google Drivers. I downloaded a newer USB driver linked in a thread in XDA.
I connect the phone using the MENU button and the driver installation begins, BUT the driver fails to install.
In Windows8 Device Manager, i can see the S1Boot Fastboot device marked with an exclamation mark. Trying to update the driver manually, selecting the driver that i replaced the older one, in the android SDK/extras/google/usb (or something) gives me an error of incompatible devices and fails.
Any help please?

I guess Google will help you better here bro.. Because your problem you know better.. Its difficult to find the reason behind the failure of driver installation.. There can be infinite number of reasons.. You cannot predict.. Search the error you are getting.. You will find your answer..

Can't find correct Windows 8 64-bit drivers.

Specs: Windows 8 64-bit. Clean and restored HTC EVO 3D. HBOOT 1.58.0000.
I have tried almost everything, but I can't get my phone recognized in fastboot mode.
I tried what was listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39218156#post39218156

I was able to get mine working with the combo of
1. uninstalling any HTC sync or sync manager and the HTC BMP USB Driver. Basically anything HTC.
2. Install HTC sync. Not sync manager. Go to the HTC support page and you'll see both listed. If you go to the specific phone support page it might not be there. (One S doesn't have the sync program, just sync manager iirc.)
3. Download PDAnet. When installing, It'll give a warning that you already have drivers installed and ask if you want to fix them or leave as is. I chose it to fix and it went though its process and I had working drivers after that.
I think this was already suggested before. I going back and giving thanks wherever due after this post. (On the mobile app right now)
Other easy way if you're using a One S is to download Hasoon2000's All-On-One Toolkit. He's updated the drivers for windows 8. I haven't tried it yet as mine are working so haven't had the need. I would assume his tool for any of the other phones he supports would have the updated drivers too.

And the phone is recognized fine when in regular mode. Though, whenever I reboot the phone into the Bootloader using adb, it restarts into the fastboot, but it doesn't change to "Fastboot USB" and shortly after I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" on my PC and it saying something about it malfunctioning. So I get stuck on "Waiting for device" when trying out this command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token."
Any ideas? I'm trying to unlock the bootloader and root so that I can install custom ROMs and kernels.
Hey there! Sorry my fix didn't work for you.
My question is, are you running windows 8 or 8.1? The reason I ask is because the 8.1 update has broken fastboot apparently. I don't remember the last time I tried on my computer to see if fastboot still works or not since I updated to 8.1.
If you are running 8.1 windows then the guide at droid-now.com seems to have worked for many people. Go to that site and search fastboot fix windows 8.1 or you could just Google that too I guess. I would paste the link right now but my phone is being stupid and not letting me paste it ATM. :-|
If that doesn't work then you may be able get what you need done by dual booting into Ubuntu if you feel comfortable doing so. You could easily make a bootable flash drive that you could boot into just for an emergency. I just used one for about 4 days while fixing my computer after I accidentally erased the partition tables of my hard drive, trying to make a permanent installation of Ubuntu. Got it fixed BTW! ats self on back:
Keep us posted if you get it fixed or have any more questions! I hope I've been at least a little helpful. I'll try to help any more I can if possible!
Good luck!

I am running Windows 8.1, however it looks like the fix only applies to Intel motherboards connecting through USB 3.0 ports. I do have USB 3.0 ports, but my motherboard is AMD and my USB3 controller reads "VIA USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft)." I'm not sure that the fix applies to me, unfortunately. Also, I am not connecting my phone to my PC using the USB3.0 ports.
I tried downloading the USB 3.0 Drivers for Windows 8 64-bit on the manufacturer's website for my motherboard (http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305), but when I try to update my drivers to the ones I got from the website it says that the Microsoft provided ones are the most recent/ up to date drivers.

Be Advised, there is perhaps a way , you wil find in the link below, but be sure to use the right intel driver And only if you hae an intel chipset for usb3 , please read the comments and my bad experience :
Under win8.1/X64 that if you have(like me) an Intel 8 /c220 (or with a 4th generation like intel I7 4770k) you may encounter a big mess , and perhaps you''l have to do a clean install of win 8.1 : all the usb2 DEVICES were disconnected after the first iusb3xhc.inf driver install !! So no more usb/Bluetooth keyboard+mouse , fortunately i had an old ps2 keyboard and i was able to delete only with "tab/alt Tab/ctrl tab" keys the
"intel usb3 extensible " line in device manager, and as soon as i done a refresh (ALT+A) in device manager the previous driver(Microsoft) was reinstalled by win 8.1 andall the usb2 devices connected (mouse/keyb/hub etc)
http://plugable.com/2012/12/01/windo...#comment-19066
see there there's in the last comments at the bottom , Andrew(tks to him!)a link + modified drivers for intel8/c220)
and for me it worked mouse/keyB were functional during all the process
next step check the fastboot adb is working now
Here you go... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061435
A later post I made (I havent updated the OP, shame on me...) is a link to some universal drivers from CWM that works fantastic! - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40108463#post40108463
Before trying this I would goto your device manager and right click on the currently installed drivers and uninstall them before installing the drivers again.
Hope that helps. I am using the link found in that second link and fastboot and adb works perfect. Also, while you can boot into fastboot, stock 1.58 will not let you run a lot of fastboot commands and will need to flash a different hboot.

Acer A700 USB problem

Hello. I've got A700 and I'm trying to root it but I've got a problem. I tried it with every key combination (power, volume up & down) I found on the internet but they don't work.
I also tried it when using the USB port but my PC and my laptop won't recognise the tablet. I've downloaded the drivers from Acer but when I install them my PC asks to install NET frameworks 2.0.5727. This version is no longer available but Frameworks 3 also worked according to Microsoft. After this installation the drivers from Acer still don't want to install. Then I tried it with Android USB driver but the same problem keeps coming back.
When I plug the tablet on my PC and look in the windows device manager there is a yellow triangle on the USB port with an error code 43. I've got the same problem and errors on my laptop. They both work on Windows 8.1. Could it be that the problem is on my tablet's USB? There is no problem when charging.
Does anyone have a similar problem or maybe a solution?
I have this problem too for my Acer a700. When I connect the tablet, i can't see the folders on the tablet via the pc anymore. I can't put files on it, and I can't transfer files from the tablet to the pc.
I contacted Acer and they said that windows 8.1 uses a new way to deal with usb drivers.
I will translate (google translate) from dutch to english
Dear customer,
*
Unfortunately, Windows 8.1 handles the USB drivers differently than Windows 7/8. So there are specific drivers for Windows 8.1 required that we can not supply at this time.
We have made ​​a request to check whether these drivers are still going to be mad.e At this moment we can not specify the period within which we as a reaction to get going.
Until then you might try to work with the following generic driver: http://www.droid-now.com/2013/10/fix-working-fastboot-drivers-windows-8-1-x64/
Note that they are not specifically designed for the Acer tablet and we can not provide support for the things that are discussed there.
Following the instructions is at your own risk.
*
As soon as we have more information about the Windows 8.1 driver, we will inform you about it.
*
Hoping this provides you with sufficient information and we apologize for the inconvenience

NOOB question; where is a good recent tutorial??

Hi friends,
Been reading a lot on XDA lately. The idea is to flash my tf201, which I just bought for small money, to a more recent rom. A lot of threads with tutorials on xda date from 2011 and 2012 so a lot might be outdated or obsolete. I have reasonable skills like working with windows/linux/command line, but a lot of therms used sound quite new to me.
So my question; does anyone know a good recent tutorial on youtube how to do the job with windows 10? Where can i find the right tools to do this job?
Thanx in advance,
Steve
1st step is to unlock the stock bootloader, the file can be found here; http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/TF201/UnLock_Device_App_V6.apk
If I remember, I was able to run this via the file manager.
NP
Thanks Nektopoli,
Does that also work when the prime already is running jelly bean?

When you boot up your prime, in the upper left corner you should see this[see pic] IF the bootloader is unlocked;

Thanks Nektopoli,
Got the prime unlocked using the [Guide/tutorial] Asus Transformer Prime/TF201 stock to Android 7.1 Nougat on this forum.
Now got stuck on part 4b NVflash.
Have the universal naked drivers installed but as soon as i connect the asus in APX mode, the pc (windows10) does not recognise the asus and says "unknown usb device, request for driver signing failed" instead of an external drive called APX.
Tried installing in Windows device manager, didn't work.
Did the trick with advanced startup settings to disable driver signing, didn't work either.
I used an old Windows 7 laptop and Minimal ADB and Fastboot, I don't think anyone has had any luck using a Windows 10 system.

I tried installing the drivers on a win7 32 and 64 bit laptops. Both times i get error "The INF File You selected does not support this method of installation".
Next i tried on both to install with device manager. Connecting the tab in APX mode gives an "unknown device" as windows notification. When i manually update the driver using install from disk it says: the selected folder does not contain a compatibel driver for your device.
Any ideas?
Do you have the Universal_Naked_Driver_0.72 installed on the Win7 system?
