Hi All,
When I soft-bricked (long night and stupid choices of tweaking system files), I was unable to boot. Stuck at the Asus logo, at times not even the Asus logo would show. I took a few days but I finally figured it out.
After numerous methods tried and numerous failed attempts, I have narrowed down a successful process for recovering, downgrading and installing Lollipop. Please keep in mind that all cases are unique and this may not work for everyone. The zip folder contains all the tools and firmware builds needed to recover, downgrade, update your tablet.
Please note that this method was only tested on the non-LTE version of the tablet. This method may work if you substitute the firmware files. You can find links to these in the zip.
Another Note. To unbrick, follow the downgrade process. This should unbrick you.
By Clicking Download you agree that I in no way take any responsibility, liability either legally, morally, financially or any other way you could blame me for what you do or these applications do to your tablet or the opposite end of the spectrum, the amount of success to expect. This is at your own risk. I am only providing what I did to resolve my issue in hopes that it may help others.
IMPORTANT: You will lose all you data on the internal memory.
If you agree to the above please feel free to Download (1.87GB)
Key to Download:
MD5 Hash
SHA-512 Hash to 100% verify it hasn't been tampered with since MD5 can be easily broken
A lot can go wrong if you don't know what you are doing. If you don't know what you are doing, stop to ask in a forum. You look dumber making a mistake by assuming than asking the most basic of question. So please don't feel embarrassed to ask what may seem obvious or simple. There is also a FAQ below which I will update as needed.
Unfortunately I have to throw this in here:Questions regarding the LTE version will not be answered as I do not have this device.
Huge Credit goes to 4pda members for creating some of these tools that helped me create this all in one zip.
