nvflash linux hanging

Hi,
I've got into a mess with my Vega , and have been trying to use nvflash running on ubuntu linux to load the stock software onto the device.
Trouble is, regardless of what I try and flash - nvflash will just stop at various points during the flash procedure.
I've tried another ubuntu machine , just incase it was the USB port or something else. Same results.
Here is a sample output from nvflash :
Code:

Anyone have any ideas?

From your output everything looks OK to me.
Are you sure the linux command is correct?

I think so, its pretty much the same as the lvds.bat file from the stock installer.
Update - After countless tries I did manage to flash the stock ROM. I then applied modaco custom rom using adb.
Rebooting sometimes brings up android and sometimes black screens. Android seems to have problems all over the place. Wifi sometimes works sometimes doesn't. Will hang at random intervals.
Im thinking the NAND in the device is broken. Does this sound like the right conclusion?

Unrooting the Transformer with the nvflash

Hi everyone!
I´m following this guide here: tabletroms.com/forums/transformer-rom-development/1071-asus-transformer-nvflash-stock-3-1-stock-3-2-recovery-roms-unbricking-tools.html
At the moment I am trying to bring my Transformer back to it´s original state. My specs are:
TF101, bought in Germany
Serial number B50[...]
Rooted and encrypted
So, when i try to use the method described in the thread i get the folowing output:

I am 100% sure that the image i download is not corrupted (md5 checked) and i also get this with all 3 version i already tried (3.2 Build of 8.6.5.13, 3.2 Build 8.6.5.9 and the earliest 3.1 build 8.4.4.5.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
[Edit] I didn´ t connect the device with a root-USB-Port but via a HUB. Did that, now it works.

[Q} Stuck in APX Mode

So yesterday I was playing Angry Birds space on my tablet running AOKP Milestone 6 with TWRP. The game started lagging like no other so I exited the game, Got to my home screen and it was locked up. Hit the reset button and it wasn't booting, stating that was loading the kernel, I loaded into TWRP, and it wasn't seeing anything on my SD Card so I decied to just do a rollback using Timmydeans root 3.2.1 downgrade, and whenever I run the EUU i just stops during it the restore

Theres something bad with the partitions on your internal sd.
Download Bad Sector from my Dropbox: http://db.tt/won7nZlr
In apx mode run a501a.bat. when finished, reboot and go in recovery. Format system partition 3 times. Go back in apx mode. Run a501b.bat. when finished, you are on unlocked ics bootloader v8 and cwm 1.7.3. Boot in recovery and flash the ics rom you like.

Sounds like a hardware issue with your internal sd. I think you'll have to send it to Acer for repair. But maybe, one of the many other guys here in the forum may be of help for you.

Hello,
I have the same problem.
When I run A501A.bat, it creates some partitions and format 4 partitions. The blank screen of the tablet shows acer logo with Acer Apx Mode in white and after that nothing happens!
If I reboot the tablet, I can't go to recovery.
I don't know the tablet's story because I bought it broken. The tablet stucks in Apx mode.

this appears to be the same error code as the OP's...I pm'ed jazzy earlier this
week to ask him if he had fixed his tab...
his reply was No...he had to send it in for repair and get the motherboard replaced....
If timmydeansv4 does not work in this instance then you will need to contact acer!!!
also could u pls post yr error code in this post as well trying to get a thread with all the error codes posted, thanks and good luck

[Q] nvflash hangs formatting FCK partition

(I already tried a lot of searching, no success)
I am trying to recover an Acer Iconia A500, which seemed to have a bad sector in the first 4MB of flash. So after Babsector and manual rawwrite/rawread tests, I created a modified flash.cfg which inserted an FCK partition for the bad sectors between the BCT and PT partitions. However when I run nvflash --create, it hangs trying to format that FCK partition (which is just there to prevent use of the bad sectors).
Is there a workaround, e.g. some way of telling nvflash not to format the FCK partition while still creating the proper contents of the BCT and PT partitions (so I can move on to flashing the desired bootloader, kernel and recovery)?
Update: By simply trying again and again, it randomly succeeded (once) in getting past the FCK formatting. No change in config or command, just repeated tries (which cannot be good for the flash chip).
I am using the old nvflash.exe (dated 2011-11-23, size 152064, no --version option) with the following command line:
Code:
nvflash --bct flash.bct --setbct --configfile flash.cfg --create --odmdata 0x100c0105 --bl dlmodebl.bin --sbk 0xXXXXXXXX 0xXXXXXXXX 0xXXXXXXXX 0xXXXXXXXX
dlmodebl.bin (like nvflash.exe and flash.bct) is from timmydean's root-3.2.1-V4.7z
The output (from failed attampts) is this:

However, the result is still not bootable (to recovery, system.img doesn't match the other parts).
The modified flash.cfg differs from timmydean's only in a smaller BCT and the extra FCK partition at the beginning, here is the new beginning:
Code:

[partition]

Wow that's some nice investigative work there...
These things are way above my skill level, but I can offer some thoughts from being around the Acer forums here for a while now.
You are correct regarding the chip. It is faulty (or the solder is.) Which is why formatting 'worked' after multiple attempts.
It's still failing on the bct write error. What I can tell you is, each tabs bct is 'different'. For nvflash to operate correctly, you must use your tabs own bct. Once flashed successfully with skrilax_cz bootloader, it doesn't appear to matter which bct you use...
Blackthund3r's apxFlash tool has an option to dump (and save) your tabs bct, which can then be used to successfully nvflash.
If you could somehow retrieve the original bct you may be able to resolve the problem....in saying that though, you will still be left with a faulty emmc, so any success you have with the flash, at some point it will fail completely....attempts at Reflowing the solder has worked in some but not all cases, so that's at least worth a try.
I wish you all the best with your endeavours, the bct error has never been resolved and thei conclusion has always been "it's a faulty chip" not much comfort for those with the issue, especially being through no fault of their own....
One other thing, through many, many flashing attempts of my own, I did get this error once...thankfully between the auto tools and babsector/tdv4 etc, I managed to get it up and running again. I've never had any trouble with it over the 2-3 years since...there maybe a small sliver of hope for you there...
Good luck with it !!

Unfortunately, Blackthunder's utility just kept getting in the way, as it kept assuming I was starting from a working tablet in ADB mode, not a broken tablet that could only be put in APX mode with the reset button. I managed to find an XDA thread with a tool to extract the CPUID from APX mode and another thread with a tool for creating the Iconia specific SBKv1 from the CPUID.
Blackthunder's tool seems to be mostly a wrapper around the base tools (adb.exe, fastboot.exe and nvflash.exe), and at least the nvflash from the timmyDean ROM bundle fails when asked to read back the old BCT, while the nvflash from the wheelie bundle simply doesn't accept an SBK argument. Anyway since I have by now repeated reformatted the flash, I doubt the old BCT is still there.
From what I have read however, the (unencrypted) BCT depends only on the following:
1. How the RAM and FLASH is wired to the Tegra chip in a specific tablet model (and which RAM and FLASH chip models they are, for instance do they run on 1.8V or 3V).
2. Parts of the partitioning.
3. Parts of the bootloader configuration (the --odmdata argument).
So using the BCT from timmyDean's bundle should be fine for the A500 it was written for.
Another thing is that during flashing, the BCT and other early boot parts need to be encrypted with the device specific SBK. For the A500 and A501 we know the SBK and can do so directly (via the --sbk option to the old nvflash.exe or the BlackThunder GUI), while for some later tablets we don't know the SBK but can use the the wheelie trick to make the tablet encrypt it for us (this is what the wheelie preparation procedure essentially does).
I still haven't found a detailed nvflash manual, the documentation for the RCM preboot protocol or the documentation for Tegra's AES engine.
