[Fixed] Windows Hello is preventing some options for being shown - Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.

It could be related to incompatible or out of date driver.
To fix up the issue, there are many things you can try:
1) Update Windows
Go to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Updates > Check for Windows Updates
After getting updates, restart your computer.
2) Get help from Windows built-in troubleshooter
Go to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Hardware and Devices > Run the troubleshooter. Hit Next and then follow the prompts to run it.
3) Remove Windows Hello, and then re-add it.
Go to Start > Settings > Accounts > Sign in Options
There you hit Remove, and then restart your PC.
You will then be asked to set up Windows Hello.

[Q] Syncing 8525 to desktop running Win7 x64

I've tried using WMDC however each time I connect the device, I get an unknown device warning and it won't recognize the device.
I've read about similar issues with Vista and WMDC however, upon trying what was discussed in those threads, I am still not having luck. Is there an unknown driver that I don't know about or is there something else going on. I can't get any of the data off my device until I can sync it...
Any help would be appreciated
Make sure you have Windows Update allowed to search for drivers.
You do this by :
1. Click Start, then right click upon Computer and select properties.
2. You should now have the system control panel options. On the left pane, select Advanced system settings.
3. On the new window click the hardware tab.
4. Now click Device Installation Settings.
5. On the new window make sure the Yes, do this automatically (recommended) box is bulleted.
You may need to turn off the advanced network functionality for Windows 7 x64. (I recommend for x64, Windows 7 32bit works fine from my experience)
To do so on your Hermes :
1. Tap start and select settings.
2. Along the bottom there is Personal, System and Connections. Select Connections.
3. In the connections tab, tap USB to PC.
4. Now remove the tick from the box and tap ok.
I've done everything on the list short of turning off advanced functionality in win7...as I'm not sure what setting you are referring to.
It can see there is a device there, but it doesn't know what it is and keeps looking for a driver that it doesn't have.
Then, turn off the advanced functionality. It should find it, Windows 7 x64 has trouble installing the RNDIS driver for some reason.
1. Tap start and select settings.
2. Along the bottom there is Personal, System and Connections. Select Connections.
3. In the connections tab, tap USB to PC.
4. Now remove the tick from the box and tap ok.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(The box should say Enable advanced network functionality, clear that box.)
NOTE : All on the phone itself.
If you need, I will post pictures showing the whole process.
tried everything described here. this is Windows 7 Ultimate X64. It did automatically instal WMDC, but cannot for the life of it install drivers for the device.
Not from Windows Update, not from anywhere. Am I missing something?

[Q] Win Vista & N7 Drivers

I have a very old vista Notebook, that just doesn't want to install N7 drivers.
It installs them & then reboots, but then it installs them again & reboots again. This whole thing doesn't stop
This happens for ADB & Fastboot mode. (Tried it with the N7 Toolkit & Asus drivers)
PC: Win Vista 32-Bit Notebook
N7: Wi-Fi 32GB
I've never used Windows Vista but did install this on Windows 7 and 8.1 successfully. A possible problem is that you need to disable the Driver Signature Enforcement to properly install it.
How would I do that?

I would not know as I have not used Windows Vista. For 8.1 it is by going to PC settings > Update & recovery > Recovery > Advanced startup > Restart > Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup settings > Disable driver signature enforcement > Restart > Install.

Root toolkit 1.8.1 , stuck at configuring "MTP drivers".

Hi, I am having problems with rooting, and any help will be greatly appreciated.
Problem: No ADB connection.
Here are the steops i am stuck in:
Step 2.2 and step 2.3.
2.) Plug your device in via USB.
- Wait a few minutes to see if your computer auto-configures MTP.
This was done by windows.
3.) Disable MTP mode:
- Settings > Storage > Menu item in upper right > 'USB computer connection' > Uncheck MTP.
- Wait a few minutes to see if your computer auto-configures MTP.
Nothing happened.
Going on with the installation(2.4-2.6) even with this not done, i found that i managed to see the nexus device , and that it installs a driver after turning USB debugging on.
However, continuing on with step 3, i can't install the Android ADB interface drivers.
Thanks for your time.
Lee
Step 2 is listed below for reference.
Step 2: Configuring your MTP drivers
- This step is to ensure you can access the files on your devices sdcard through windows explorer via USB.
1.) Disable USB debugging:
- Setttings > Developer Options > uncheck 'USB Debugging'.
2.) Plug your device in via USB.
- Wait a few minutes to see if your computer auto-configures MTP.
3.) Disable MTP mode:
- Settings > Storage > Menu item in upper right > 'USB computer connection' > Uncheck MTP.
- Wait a few minutes to see if your computer auto-configures MTP.
4.) Re-enable MTP mode:
- Settings > Storage > Menu item in upper right > 'USB computer connection' > Check MTP.
5.) Re-enable USB debugging:
- Setttings > Developer Options > Check 'USB Debugging'.
6.) Check to see if you can access your devices internal storage through explorer using the button below.
- 'Launch Explorer' > 'My Computer' > 'Devices' > Your Nexus device.
7.) Proceed to Step 3.

select folder with left click, right click while holding SHIFT on keyboard > Open command windows here
or while in /djibe folder, type cmd in Windows address bar and confirm with Enter.
### Use fastboot.exe provided in archive. Latest Google binaries won't work.
In Windows Command Prompt (not Windows Powershell !), type:
Code:
fastboot devices
.
If the serial number is written, tab is well connected.
### If not: try this command :
Code:
./fastboot devices
### If still fails: try another USB port
### If still fails: Launch Windows Command prompt in Administrator mode
### If still fails: Check Universal Naked drivers installation
Now type:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp-3.4.0-0-tf300t.img
and wait for the "finished" success message,
### If it fails, try other tricks like above (change USB port, Run Command prompt in Administrator mode, redownload TWRP from official site)
then type:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 reboot-bootloader
and confirm with Volume+ to load RCK (recovery), it is now TWRP 3.4.
### FROM NOW ON, ONLY USE TWRP RECOVERY TO WIPE DATA OR PARTITIONS, never again bootloader's Wipe data icon !!!
8) SET FILESYSTEM TO F2FS AND NANDROID BACKUP
F2FS is the fastest filesystem for read and write partitions on flash memories. Compared to EXT4, gain is from 15 to 280 %.
No need to format the /System partition because it is Read only and Ext4 is still faster.
On TWRP first launch, check Never show this screen during boot again, then Swipe to Allow Modifications.
Go to Backup, make sure System, Data and Boot are checked.
Now tap on Select Storage button > set it on Micro SDCard,
Swipe to Backup.
Tap on the Home button.
Now go Wipe > Advanced Wipe.
Select Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Cache, Data, Internal Storage and Swipe to Wipe (NOT MICROSD).
Tap on Back button (to Advanced Wipe Menu).
Select Cache partition > Repair or Change File System > Change File System > F2FS and Swipe.
Go Back and back to Advanced Wipe Menu.
Select Data partition > Repair or Change File System > Change File System > F2FS and Swipe.
Tap on Home button.
9) FLASH ANDROID + GOOGLE APPS +/- MAGISK
Still on TWRP Home screen, Install > Storage: Internal Storage and change it to microSD card > OK.
### If it fails, use Kang Recovery (without F2FS partitions): https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347781183
Select KatKiss-7.1_TF300T*.zip, and Add More Zips,
then open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico*.zip and Swipe to Install.
### If it fails, install zips 1 by 1, make sure microSD is valid and that you downloaded OpenGapps ARM 7.1 PICO version.
OPTIONAL --------------
Go to Reboot > Recovery.
Back to TWRP, go to Install > Magisk.zip and Swipe to install.
Be patient.
Android 7.1 is installed.
When done prompts, tap on Wipe Cache/Dalvik and swype to confirm, wait.
Disconnect tab from PC.
Then Reboot System.
Let the tab start (long time).
10) ANDROID 7.1 Nougat
On Android first launch, immediately manually toggle Wifi ON or you'll run into an app crash (Wifi toggle button is on bottom right of screen).
If your Wi-Fi network is not listed, scroll down to Don't use any network for setup (and refer to chapter 12 to access it again)
Configure Android as you like.
Go to Settings > Performance
Check Set clock values on boot
For Maximum frequency, select 1700 MHz.
I/O Scheduler set zen and Set value on boot
In Settings > Mediascanner filters, uncheck Scan.
In Settings > About tablet, tap 7 times on build number, it unlocks the Options for developers in Settings.
Enter this new menu.
In the Hardware acceleration, make sure Force GPU rendering is NOT checked !!!
11) ROOT WITH MAGISK (OPTIONAL)
Magisk root is started with Android, no need for extra manipulation.
You can manage Superuser permissions and Magisk modules from Magisk Manager app.
12) OTHER APPS
- You can use GPS Status & Toolbox for faster GPS fix.
- Kernel Adiutor for advanced overclock
- KAT App to enhance Audio: https://forum.xda-developers.com/transformer-tf300t/development/app-t2824215
- Any Magisk Module or Xposed Module.
- Your tab doesn't see your local Wifi network? You are probably european and your Wifi is set to channel >= 11.
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi > 3 dots icon > Advanced > Change wifi regulatory domain > EMEA and Rest of World.
Reboot tablet, you now see your Wi-Fi listed.
### If not:
Go to Settings > Security > Switch Unknown sources ON
Download from Play Store Smartpack Kernel Manager or with KatBrowser go to m.apkpure.com
Reboot to TWRP recovery (hold power to shutdown > long press on Reboot)
Go to Mount > Check System partition
Go to Install > flash Magisk*.zip
Reboot > System
With Smartpack Kernel Manager, edit build.prop
Look for ro.wifi.channels and set a value of 14 (ro.wifi.channels = 14)
Reboot tab to list all Wifi networks.
- To uninstall Magisk, rename Magisk-v23.0.apk to uninstall.zip and flash it with TWRP recovery
- Edit build.prop
Reboot to recovery > Mount > select System
adb devices
adb root
adb remount
adb pull /system/build.prop
Edit with Notepad++ and save
adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
adb shell chmod 644 /system/build.prop
That's it.
Enjoy ;-)

Insert microSD in TF300T shut down.
Start tab in Bootloader Mode (Power + Volume-).
Go to Recovery Mode (RCK)
Flash zip, reboot.
Normally it worked ;-)
Check bootloader version again for xxx.27.5 .
Start this tutorial from start again if bootloader ends in 27.5 .
If not, ask for help in this thread.

You are right! It is very important to convert /Data only to F2FS, never /Cache, never /System.

Nope! Please stay on Kang TWRP as advised by Timduru in order to avoid any known issues caused by TWRP 3.0! Ever follow his install instruction for KatKiss 6.0.1 carefully.

I'm having the same issue (I think)

I tried on a win7 machine but I cant install the drivers (INF file you selected doesn't support this method of installation)
Any help greatly appreciated ofc

Simply flash Kang TWRP 2.8.7.2 !!! (https://forum.xda-developers.com/transformer-tf300t/development/recovery-twrp-t3046479). This is the right one for TF300T.

Will I be able to do that without the drivers ? I'm under the impression that fastboot doesn't see my tab so I can't install a recovery.
I can't seem to pass the PC to tablet connection step. What could go wrong?
My PC's OS is Windows 10 Pro, 32bit version. I followed the below guide:
2 - INSTALL WINDOWS DRIVERS FOR ASUS TRANSFORMER PAD TF300T
- Windows 8/10 :
On keyboard, type combo : "Windows key + R"
In the command prompt, type : shutdown -o -r -t 0
it opens Windows Recovery menu:
Go to Troubleshoot -> Advanced Options -> Startup settings -> Restart
At reboot, hit 7 (Disable driver control) and follow instructions for Windows Vista/7.
when finished driver installation, reboot PC as usual.
- Windows Vista/Windows 7 :
Go to folder /Universal Naked Drivers 0.72 you unziped at start on your Desktop.
Select file android_apxusb.inf, then right click -> Install.
Force driver install and wait until a success message prompts.
Repeat operation with android_winusb.inf .
You can plug tab in USB for driver install completion.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Both installations responded "sucessful".
I then connect my TF300T to the PC with original charging/data cable, my PC doesn't seem to recognize the tablet. If I go to device manager, I will see an unknown USB with yellow (!).
What did I do wrong?

Will I be able to do that without the drivers ? I'm under the impression that fastboot doesn't see my tab so I can't install a recovery.

Please download the Asus PC Suite "ASUS PC Sync V1.0.97": https://www.asus.com/de/supportonly/ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T/HelpDesk_Download/
Install the PC Suite on your PC. Connect your Tablet with the PC via USB. Windows will ask for the driver. Point Windows on the folder of the PC Suite. The drivers will be there.

Still does not work.
*Windows did not ask for the driver.
*When try to update the driver through device manager (pointing to the folder:
ASUS Android USB Drivers
the result shows:
Update Driver Software - Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)
The best driver software for your device is already installed
Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date
Same thing when I tried the "Universal Naked driver".

Look at this site: http://gsmusbdriver.com/asus-transformer-pad-tf300t. There you will also find "how to install the USB driver"!
PS: First of all, please check whether on your tablet "USB debugging" is checked on or not. If not check it on!
Then connect your tablet with the PC again. Open the device manager. If there is seen "Android Device" ->ASUS Android Composite ADB Interface or something like that and "Portable Devices"->TF300T, your tablet is known. Then you may check the driver if an update is necessary .

I've done all those things. I am wondering if my data cable is the culprit. Ever since Android 4.x.x whenever I am charging this tablet, and when the battery is 80% or higher, the screen will wake up and the speaker beeps. I have to mute the speaker and over the screen when charging.

Came to conclusion F2FS is great. I'd appreciate your advice.

Sorry for late reply, I have been on holiday.
All I know about f2fs is that Timduru recommends using it for data partition on his build. I just follow the experts advice when flashing.
djibe89,
Great job you did here!
Just a few comments. Timduru clearly emphasizes the following points in his installation guide and your guide may cause some confusion under the TF300T owners. I have seen newcomers on the Katkiss threads that had problems with their first install due to not following and using the prescribed versions and steps.
1) Timduru advises only to use twrp_tf300_kang_2.8.7.2.img and not TWRP 3.0.2-0
2) It is also suggested that UnLock_Device_App_V7.apk rather be used as some people had problems with V8.
3) He also suggests using UPDATE-SuperSU-V2.79-20161211114519.zip be used, but does not stipulate not using V2.52 which means this one is optional, your choice.
4) He also advises to ONLY change /data to from ext4fs to f2fs for /data and NOT to do this for /cache.
Just again, excellent job and thanks for sharing.
Hi, thx for posting.
I enhenced the tutorial with your statements.
However, for the TWRP and F2FS notes, it is related.
2.8 TWRP had problems with F2FS, and were buggy until latest 3.02-0. I have this version on all the devices I hack and have complete faith in it.
Enjoy.
See you

Yoga Tab 3 Pro YT3–X90L problem

I have Yoga Tab 3 Pro, model YT3–X90L
I did a factory reset, of course I don't know the original google account
Of course, OEM unlock was not enabled, of course USB debugging was not enabled.
Of course I do not have the original purchase invoice.
Now I cannot use it, it says to enter original google account.
I tried several accounts, but none of them worked.
I can start the tablet in Droidboot mode, recovery mode, adb sideload.... pretty much everything..... but what do I do next ?
I tried this - https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Other-...ase/Unlocking-the-A2109-Bootloader/m-p/857215 - the driver is not good, still exclamation mark
Thank you for your help !
Found the solution!

Connect to your wifi network > try to connect to ANOTHER network > enter some random wifi password > show password > select text > Assist > in the search field type CHROME > launch Chrome > download TEST DPC APK (try different websites, it doesn't always work) > install > Setup as manager > restart tablet and that's it !!!!
