    1. Since you’re doing a complete firmware install, all your data will be wiped off including the apps installed on the device.

      Take a backup first of your apps and then do the procedure.

      Thanks!

      1. I have an Asus MeMo pad smart 10 I was wondering if easy flasher would work with so long as I had the right firmware to flash. do you know? or….

          1. I have the APX drivers in my “download” folder, but when i try to browse to them during installing teh drivers, they are not visible!!! They are definitely there theough!!

  1. Will I be able to install Adobe flash player after this, I can’t get flash player installed on mine, keeps saying not supported on your device

  2. Well, this is a bummer. These fixes for ASUS TF101 require USB to be working. Part of the reason for me wanting to reset my tablet is no fixes for USB connect work. Plus there is malware from bogus Flashlight app that does not go away with the Factory Reset. It resides somewhere on the tablet and comes back after the reset with game app links and popups that persist. I’m screwed.
