16Gb Working version

I have prepared a version that works well in the Folio of 16 GB, I hope that is helpful for those who do not worked before.

This tested in two different Folio 16Gb and one 8Gb, and ICS can install without problems.

Of course all the merits are for puppet13th for their original work and yellowumbrella for his patience testing it

Edit: File uploaded again, small bug fixes

ok, Im pretty sure I´ll be trolled , but the need for information is greater:

What is exactly NVFlash?

I tried to Google it before posting, and I got this answer:

"Nvflash is a low level formatting and imaging tool" :confused:

Didnt help much. What does it do? What is it for?

Thanks a lot! :p

It is a tool to prepare the tablet from APX mode

DO NOT USE IF YOU DO NOT NEED

When you go into mode APX (4 x Power and vol +) this is the only way to recover it.

It is relatively easy to accidentally enter into this mode, as fastboot mode is 3 x Power and vol +

From the APX mode you program the bootloader partition table etc ...
For a bug to enter this mode in the Talet erases all information, so it is necessary to recover

Sorry for my English, but I think it it is understood;)

All,

I have restored my lads Folio 100 from a brick today, it would only show a white LED - absolutely NOTHING else.

It hasn't worked for about 6 months.

Used this thread and he's now using it with the latest ICS ROM!

Took about 30 mins maximum...

Tremendous work, thank you very much

    Fully working nvflash(APX Mode) for Toshiba Folio 100

    Working :
    - bootloader (toshiba logo)
    - fully working fastboot

    issue :
    - Blank MBR after flashing from fastboot

    I'm working this based on [REQ] Toshiba folio 100 BCT and partition dumps Thread

    And reference from Hacking the Toshiba AC100

    I'm running this on Toshiba AS100 also known as Folio 100 wtih 8GB of internal storage
    it should be working on 16GB version

    files :

    bootloader.bin --> Toshiba Folio 100 bootloader
    busybox --> busybox v1.18.4
    Fix-MBR.cmd --> Fix MBR after flashing from fastboot
    folio100.xls --> my summary about partition table on folio 100 and ac100
    new.bct --> downloaded form my folio 1000
    NVFlash-Folio100.cmd --> all-in-one working nvflash and partition script
    NVFlash.txt --> nvflash documentation
    env.cmd --> start command prompt with adb,fastboot and nvflash support
    flash.cfg --> i created this config file based on my summary
    part.run --> parititon creation script
    part.txt --> fdisk partition parameter
    part-layout.txt --> Fdisk partition layout

    Before you run NVFlash-Folio100.cmd you need to download CWM Recovery image from

    Files needed :
    1. cwm.img --> CWM Recovery
    download from :
    [RECOVERY][UPDATE] Unofficial port of ClockworkMod Recovery for folio100 - BETA
    [recovery] CWM for Betelgeuse v0.3 - Now with USB support
    note : extract the file until you got recovery.img,then rename it to cwm.img

    2. boot.img --> Kernel image
    3. system.img --> System partition image
    4. recovery.img --> Recovery image
    Download working ROM :
    DISCONTINUED - [ROM][19-feb-2011] FolioMod v1.4 for Toshiba Folio100

    Driver :
    1. Toshiba Folio 100 ADB and Fastboot driver
    This is standard Google USB Driver,i have modified some entries for working on Toshiba Folio 100
    Download link
    2. NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver also known as APX Driver
    Download link

    After you have all needed file double click NVFlash-Folio100.cmd
    Connect your device using micro usb cable in APX mode
    After finished flash from NVFlash your device will automatically boot to CWM Recovery
    While CWM Recovery on standby menu,press any key to continue the script for partition and formating
    After that just reboot your device.

    If you just flashed your device using fastboot enter CWM Recovery and run Fix-MBR.cmd

    Note :
    APX mode --> On Toshiba boot screen press Power 4x then Vol- (if you have enter this mode,you need to full flash from NVFlash)
    Fastboot mode --> On Toshiba boot screen press Power 3x then Vol-
    Recovery mode --> On Toshiba boot screen press Power + Vol+

    If you stuck on something just long press the power button,it will power off the device

    if you're already flashed from NVFlash and unable to enter APX Mode,you need to disassembly your device.Disconnect cable from NAND and then power on the device.After it connected in APX mode,you can connect the NAND cable and flash it using NVFlash.

    For disassembly reference Folio 100 Disassembly - Pictures

    The NAND flash is connected using white short film cable.

    My tablet was fully bricked after pressing Power 5 times + Vol-, and this thread ended up saving my tablet's life :highfive:

    Still, why would Toshiba put such auto destructive key combo on a tablet?
