Wabi-Sabi: Finding the beauty in, and embracing the imperfect!
Perfect is repeatable. Imperfect is Perfect
PLEASE NOTE: I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device. This includes acts of God, your wife/girlfriend breaking it over your head for using it too much, or jealous iPhone owners!
I bring to you a tool to help UnBrick your Brick Prime. This should be used has a last resort.
..:: Description ::..
This is a Full Fastboot based solution that should allow you to flash any partition.
The IMG's used are blob signed, which our devices require.
..::Audience::..
Anyone who has flash stock rom, messed with the kernel, or can access fastboot.
**Please try DiamondBack thread before attempting to use this tool**
Extract it somewhere like your desktop, though anywhere will work.
when i say extract it i mean use extract all so you get my file structure do not move these files or it will break
Run / double click WSGFlasher.bat
The script displays the readme at startup. close it and continue.
Select what function you want to do and press [ENTER]
Please be careful as to what file you drag and drop when it prompts you
One final note do not give it a file from another device or a non .img file it will flash it anyway no matter what file you drag and drop once you press enter it flashes what ever was dragged onto the script. Also do not drag a radio img when it asks for recovery or in revers, bad things will happen Wile they are fixable by repeating the process I dont want anyone to mess up their device making such a simple mistake.
Further, if I get any parts wrong, PM me and I'll get those parts corrected.
Android Partition, SPL etc.
Partitions:
Followings are a list of partitions on your ASUS Transformer Prime (TF201).
misc - misc partition - recovery - Recovery Partition - This is where the original CWM recovery or any other Recovery would go. Basically if you reboot into recovery it'll boot from here. boot - This is your boot partition also known has kernel system - This is where all your system information (ROM resides) cache - cache (When you factory reset the phone, this area is wiped) userdata - user data (like your login, your user settings etc) When you factory reset the tablet, this area is wiped)
So, if you replace the recovery image, you are pretty much set for updates provided here at XDA.
ROM images will normally replace boot and system images at the same time and often time, userdata and cache too; reseting the phone completely.
SPL/Bootloader/Bricking Tablets:
SPL / Bootloader is like BIOS on a computer. At least I think of it that way. SPL can be updated! SPL comes as either Security-On of Security-Off (S-ON/S-OFF).
How do I know the tablet is bricked? A bricked tablet can not boot into bootloader, recovery, or into normal operation modes. You can not connect to a bricked tablet via adb or fastboot. You can only see one screen on the tablet and it will be the first splash screen.
great tool I never unlocked my prime b/c the half assed asus implementation but now I think I will as this will be like my last resort Insurance if i mess up, saying that I've never killed any of my other devices or had to revive them but some reason never felt confident with my prime.
everyone should be in here hitting thanks it deserves more attention
