[HELP] Can't flash Shield Tablet - Stock Firmware 4.4.2 i think topic

Hey guys,
I have been trying to flash my Tablet for a few hours now. I would constantly get problems trying to flash. I'd reboot and go into fastboot again and then it would flash successfully. This works for everything (boot.img, recovery.img, system.img) however i can never get userdata.img to flash correctly. I am using the steps from nVidia to do this. Ill post the steps here as well as the exact error im getting.

SHIELD TABLET RECOVERY IMAGE FLASHING INSTRUCTIONS

To follow the instructions in this guide, you will need adb and fastboot.
These tools are provided as part of the Android SDK:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Before flashing this recovery image to your SHIELD TABLET, connect your SHIELD TABLET
via USB to the PC where you downloaded this recovery image.

Next, put your SHIELD TABLET into fastboot mode using one of the following methods:
SW method:
- Boot to android home screen
- Connect the device to linux/windows system
- Open terminal (on linux); command prompt (on windows).
- Type "adb reboot bootloader" in terminal/command prompt

HW method:
- Turn off the device
- Press "Volume Down" -> "Power", hold "Volume Down" and leave Power buttons till device boots

To flash this recovery image to your SHIELD TABLET, run the following commands from
the directory where you extracted the recovery image package. If this is the
first time you have done this procedure, you must unlock the bootloader (see
below):

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash staging blob
fastboot flash dtb tegra124-tn8-p1761-1270-a04-e-battery.dtb

Unlocking the Bootloader
Your SHIELD TABLET may have shipped with a locked bootloader. To update the device,
you must unlock the bootloader using the following:
- fastboot oem unlock
- Press the "Volume Down" button to select "Unlock bootloader" option on device
- Press the "Power" button to confirm the unlock. Your device's bootloader is now unlocked.

Need Kyocera Hydro Icon Stock Firmware topic

I had to do a factory reset on my phone today due to some issues and after I did it booted up once to the home screen and then restarted up to the Boost screen and is stuck in a boot loop.
I can factory reset it and it will do the same thing, boot once and restart into the boot loop.

Does anyone have the a firmware for the Hydro Icon ?
Recovery only has the wipe options and the update from SD card but I don't have a file to update.

I have a feeling that something has been deleted from the system files and it's not loading.
I don't know what to do, I cant' afford a new phone right now.

Please help. Thanks.

Updating Firmware for Lollipop ROM? topic

Hello! I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to updating firmware and I've heard that it's really easy to brick your device if you screw it up so I want to ask some questions before I dive in.
From what i've gathered, this is the right place to get the latest firmware and flashing instructions. Do I need to flash the full firmware if I'm not planning on using a stock/Sense ROM? Would it matter either way?
I'm on CM 10.2 now and was thinking about checking out the latest CM 12 nightly or maybe one of the Lollipop GPE ROMs. I don't think I'll be going to a Sense ROM.
P.S. I've had this phone since August 2013 and have never updates the firmware.

Pic of Dead Droid with ! after firmware update attempt topic

I recently got my TF701T back from repairs and they of course factory reset it (they put a new battery in). We all know it needs factory reset for that right? Anyways. I do a check for updates and nothing. I know I was running 4.4 previously but updater says no updates and stuck on original. So I start reading and download the latest US 4.4 firmware directly from ASUS, unzip it and put in main directory (verified mine was US) and reboot. Says all is fine, would I like to update, yes, reboot and I get the Android gear guy for about 10 minutes then it reboots. He shows up again and dead android shows up.

Now it just loops forever to this. I spent about 5 hours reading forums here, attempted a restore, but 1. the recovery.img link is bad and 2. my tablet isn't rooted.

Any suggestions? I can access the fastboot screen that gives me "RCK, Android and "Wipe Data". I tried Wipe data 3 times, no good still getting dead guy. I tried copying the latestest zip file to an sd card with boot.img and blob and file and ran RCK and it says match then reboots then dead guy again...

the fastboot screen says "released by: "US_epad-10.14.1.45-20131014" which I believe is the original.

[Q] Rear camera firmware appears null topic

Hey everyone, this is my first thread and I am not native speaker so sorry for bad language.

The proble is that my Galaxy S5 is presenting a problem with its rear camera, everytime I oppen the app it says there was a problem and it closes with no explanation. Also I managed to check its firmware entering a code in the dial pad and where it says Rear Camera (main) everything is null. I am no expert, I am actually new at this but my first guess ir that maybe there is a missing driver or something like that?

Any idea how to fix this problem?

Thank you very much
