Try the Advent 4.3 see if that helps as that is a stock APX recovery image. If that works then OTA update to 4.4.2-2.5 then flash 5.1, I can no longer help further as i no longer own said device i went and got the shield tablet k1.

If your device is in APX mode and you doing have a serial from the box then there is nothing you can do other then make a serial up.

There is an example serial in the OP

<name:serial_number; idx:0; tag:0x80; data:0521300014999> (Not my Serial but you should get the jest)
Try that one.

In other words open notepad/notepad++ and open the file NCT_GPT.txt

Then look for the line <name:serial_number; idx:0; tag:0x80; data:TEGRANOTEGP00A123456> and then replace it with <name:serial_number; idx:0; tag:0x80; data:0521300014999> that should help you flash the device.

Also make sure you have downloaded either Nvidia Tegra Note (P1640) 4.4.2-2.5 APX Image (Unoffical) or the Nvidia Tegra Note (P1640) Advent Branding 4.3 APX Image as well as Nvidia APX Forced Flash with Serial Fix files.

Hello guys, I need help with my tablet.
Tablet Gazer Tegra Note 7 II (TN750), Windows 10 x64.
Issue: when I tried to return from Android 5.1 to 4.4.2 using Tegra Super tool 2.7 I got a brick, also I saw 1640 in Android system->about.

What I've done:
1. Nvidia APX Unsigned Driver setup - tablet discovered as NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices
2. Unpacked Nvidia Tegra Note (P1640) 4.4.2-2.5 APX Image (Unoffical)
3. Serial number replaced in NCT_GP.txt
4. filename=nct_gp.txt replaced in flash_signed.cfg
5. Ran flash_signed.bat with user privileges = blinking cursor in console, flashing doesn't start
6. Ran flash_signed.bat with admin privileges = blinking cursor in console, flashing doesn't start
7. Unpacked and replaced files from Serial Number Fix
8. Ran flash_signed._forced.bat with user/admin privileges =
Nvflash 3.09.1700 started
Using blob 3.09.1700
blinking cursor
-OR-
Nvflash 3.09.1700 started
Using blob 3.09.1700
chip uid from BR is: 0x600000015c41920020000000180105c0 (other uid)
blinking cursor
flashing doesn't start

What I've tried else:
1. using Win XP SP3
2. using Win 7
3. remove # from filename=eks.dat
4. change vid & pid to <vid:0x955; pid:0x7535> (values in my system)
5. change version to version:0x00010200 (value in my system)
6. tried from different folder names and directly from C:
7. awaiting more than 20 minutes (no additional output in console)
8. the same using Advent Branding 4.3 APX Image

What am I doing wrong?

Ok have you tried a different cable, also are you running in a usb3 port if so try a usb3 port.

Else if it still fails then sorry my image set will not work.

USB 2.0 on the desktop back and two cables, but I'll find other cables and try again, will try on USB 3.0 also.
As I see several peoples faced the same issue, inexplicably.
