@Tomsgt i really need your help,i want to make a clean flash of android 5.1 with your tool but the problem is that it won't work.

drivers etc everything is installed.

so i got to the step 3 (restore 5.1 lollipop)
so it flashes recovery. shows me an "OKAY"
it flashes boot. also shows me an "OKAY"
but when he wants to flash system he gives me this:
target reported max download size of 637534208 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magi

and a window that says that fastboot.exe has stopped working.
pls i really need your help on this.
target reported max download size of 637534208 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magi isnt a problem that is normal and the fastboot error can just be closed with the red X and the script will finish flashing the system

well, the problem kinda solved itself. i was in another city at a frineds home and tried using your tool on his computer (which uses win 8 instead of win 7 like me etc).
now i got home and i tried the same thing here on my pc. target reported blablabla size error still appeared. BUT fastboot.exe didn't crash here and it kept flashing the system.
after that i used the wipe and factory reset option in your tool for a completely clean android 5.1 flash without anything preset crap from kitkat :D
right now my tablet finished booting and i am in the setupwizard. i will now set up everything sot it suits my needs. wish me luck :D

Hi guys! I want to install the OTA update 3.0 but my tegra note 7 is rooted and won't install the update. Is there a way to unroot my device or another procedure to install this update?

Tomsgt: I am unable to get into Fastboot Protocol. Everytime it flashes and goes back to the same page. Using the 2.7 Super tool trying to revert to original so I can update to Lollipop. Any help is greatly apperciated!
Youtube: https://youtu.be/8OAS91bUDYo

BTW: I went through the test of ADB and FASTBOOT and both came back okay. Just unable to get into Fastboot Protocol.

Edit: Odd, after multiple tries all morning, suddenly it's working. Fingers crossed..........!

Edit 2: I need to read.... Sorry... Will report back....

i answered in the youtube comment. you are doing it right. there wont open up a specific fastboot menu. this option is just a toggle. so just highlight fastboot protocol, press power button and fastboot mode is enabled. the bootloader menu just appears again when the enabling process is done so you still have reboot options etc

Thank you very much! I just saw your comment now but after messing around some more I was finally able to get it to flash, then right off the bat did a factory reset just in case. Now apps are reinstalling. Things look good and smooth for now though it feels like the tablet is taking its time doing anything. I already went into developer options to turn off animations. Perhaps it just needs time to settle down.

Thanks again GodOfPsychos and Tomsgt!!!!

HI guy, i need your help.
the twrp recovery wipe the /date will make /data is not writable for lolipop. if you use the twrp wipe the /date ,you would have to flash the CWM or offical recovery to wipe.

Hey,Tomsgt why do u use older version of TWRP ? Shaky156 released version of TWRP which have the 180° rotation fixed.
And btw anyone else having issues with installing xposed on 5.1 ? My device says that the storage is full but it says the SD card is full even if I have 1,2 GB free and it also says it for USB device which is not connected so that's weird..
It also say it even if the SD Card is disconnected.. and the Internal storage have 5 GB free

that storage bug you have with xposed happened also to me. only method to solve this was restoring 5.1 via flashtool and start all over (after restoring reinstall TWRP, rerooting, flashing xposed etc). did this a few times until xposed installed successfully without this "storage is nearly full" crap after booting up.

Unfortunately the tablet is no longer running smoothly for me. It's lagging big time. Quite painful to use sometimes. Any ideas/suggestions?
